Mortality risk drops with every step you take
THE risk of mortality drops by more than a third with every 1000 steps a day taken by adults in their 70s and 80s, a UK study has found.
The following articles have the tag physical activity
THE risk of mortality drops by more than a third with every 1000 steps a day taken by adults in their 70s and 80s, a UK study has found.
AFTER the age of 30, physical inactivity is the greatest single contributor to a woman's lifetime risk of developing heart disease, outweighing other well-known risk factors such as smoking and obesity, according to an Australian study.
AN INTENSE workout at the gym for an hour simply does not compensate for a sedentary, desk-bound day, an experiment suggests.
CONTRARY to popular belief, fatter children do not eat more than their lean peers but are overweight because they do not get as much exercise, Australian research suggests.
OVERWEIGHT children often lack the ability to perform the basic movement skills required to boost exercise, such as kicking, sliding and hopping, an Australian study shows. A total of 153 overweight and obese children from Newcastle and Wollongong, mean age 8.3 years, were video-assessed for fundamental movement and ball skills, including underhand roll and strike, leap and jump, dribble and kick, and throwing and catching. Each child was given a demonstration of the correct technique before each skill test. For all skills, across all age groups, the prevalence of mastery was significantly lower among the study ...

McGregor is the most senior trans* within the Australian Defence Force and as well as being a personal friend of Prime Minister Tony Abbott, she is also regarded as a highly-respected writer on the sport of cricket.
As one of only six trans* people currently serving in the country's armed forces, McGregor has played an instrumental role in army chief Lieutenant General David Morrison's campaign to instil cultural change across the Defence Force, particularly in its treatment of women and LGBTI personnel.

Thus &
Derek Henderson's second collection Thus & is available for sale online at If P Then Q.
Ted Berrigan's seminal The Sonnets is renowned for its famous use of cut up technique and reconfiguration throughout the sequence. Derek Henderson's erasure Thus & eliminates all words and typographical duplications. In addition to the strikingly beautiful, often minimalist, sonnets created by Henderson, Thus & asks new questions of each Berrigan sonnet and the sequence as a whole. Thus & reveals (conceals) not only the clusters of phrases/lines that were cloned by Berrigan but also words which he repeated; many obviously subconsciously. What is left in Thus & is part skeleton, and underbelly, of maître-sonneteer Berrigan's The Sonnets and part alien remix by techno-magician Derek Henderson. - James Davies
The poems in Derek Henderson's Songs are "translations" of a film cycle of the same name, shot by American filmmaker Stan Brakhage (1933-2003) to document his and his family's life in Colorado in the mid-1960s. Where Brakhage's films provide a subjective visual record of his experience bewildered by the eye, these poems let language bewilder the space a reader enters through the ear. Henderson tenders the visual experience of Brakhage's films—films of the domestic and the wild, the private and political, the local and global—into language that insists on the ultimate incapacity of language—or of image—to fully document the comfort and the violence of intimacy. Songs expresses the ecstasy we so often experience in the company of family, but it just as urgently attests to ecstasy's turbulent threat to family's stability. Like Brakhage's films, Henderson's poems carry across into language and find family in every moment, even the broken ones, all of them abounding in hope.

New USDA Breeder Regulations to be Released for Comment Next WeekBy: Staff Writers
29 views
Early next week, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of United States Department...
In particular, two proposed changes may have a potentially significant impact on AKC breeders:
Current AWA regulations do not require licensing of "retail pet stores". The newly proposed rule will significantly narrow the definition of retail pet stores so that: "Retail pet store means any outlet a place of business or residence that each buyer physically enters in order to personally observe the animals available for sale prior to purchase and/or to take custody of the animals after purchase …" .
This rescinds the"retail pet store" status/protection for those who engage in internet sales. Breeders who engage in internet-only or other sales without allowing the buyer to personally observe the puppy ahead of purchase will be subject to current USDA commercial breeder licensing and inspections. However, breederswho sell pets to their customers face-to-face will now qualify as "retail pet stores" for the purpose of remaining exempt from USDA regulations.
The proposed new rule also increases the exception for regulation as a commercial breeder for those who maintain up to four breeding female dogs on their premises if person sells only the offspring born and raised on the premises for use as pets or exhibition (regardless of whether those animals are sold at retail or wholesale).
The American Kennel Club will review the proposal, provide comment after fully analyzing the impacts of the proposed rule, and will report all developments as they warrant.
For more information, click here for a fact sheet prepared by USDA/APHIS regarding the proposed rule change; and here for a preliminary copy of the proposal.

|UAV DECISION AND CONTROL SYSTEM - The present invention relates to a hierarchical system and method for task assignment (TA), coordination and communication of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's) engaging multiple attack targets and conceives an ad-hoc routing algorithm for synchronization of target lists utilizing a distributed computing topology. Assuming limited communication bandwidth and range, coordination of UAV motion is achieved by implementing a simple behavioral flocking algorithm utilizing a tree topology for target list routing. The TA algorithm is based on a graph-theoretic approach, in which a node locates all the detectable targets, identifies them and computes its distance to each target. The node then produces an attack plan that minimizes the sum of distances of the UAV's in the subtree of a given node to the targets.

Introducing Samba
The following smb.conf file describes a simple and useful Samba configuration that makes every user's home directory on my Linux box available over the network.
[global] netbios name = FRODO workgroup = UAB-TUCC server string = John Blair's Linux Box security = user printing = lprng [homes] comment = Home Directory browseable = no read only = no
The settings in the [global] section set the name of the host, the workgroup of the host and the string that appears next to the host in the browse list. The security parameter tells Samba to use "user level" security. SMB has two modes of security: share, which associates passwords with specific resources, and user, which assigns access rights to specific users. There isn't enough space here to describe the subtleties of the two modes, but in nearly every case you will want to use user-level security.
The printing command describes the local printing system type, which tells Samba exactly how to submit print jobs, display the print queue, delete print jobs and other operations. If your printing system is one that Samba doesn't already know how to use, you can specify the commands to invoke for each print operation.
Since no encryption mode is specified, Samba will default to using plaintext password authentication to verify every connection using the standard UNIX password utilities. Remember, if your Linux distributions uses PAM, the PAM configuration must be modified to allow Samba to authenticate against the password database. The Red Hat package handles this automatically. Obviously, in many situations, using plaintext authentication is foolish. Configuring Samba to support encrypted passwords is outside the scope of this article, but is not difficult. See the file ENCRYPTION.txt in the /docs directory of the Samba distribution for details.
The settings in the [homes] section control the behavior of each user's home directory share. The comment parameter sets the string that appears next to the resource in the browse list. The browseable parameter controls whether or not a service will appear in the browse list. Something non-intuitive about the [homes] section is that setting browseable = no still means that a user's home directory will appear as a directory with its name set to the authenticated user's username. For example, with browseable = no, when I browse this Samba server I will see a share called jdblair. If browseable = yes, both a share called homes and jdblair would appear in the browse list. Setting read only = no means that users should be able to write to their home directory if they are properly authenticated. They would not, however, be able to write to their home directory if the UNIX access rights on their home directory prevented them from doing so. Setting read only = yes would mean that the user would not be able to write to their home directory regardless of the actual UNIX permissions.
The following configuration section would grant access to every printer that appears in the printcap file to any user that can log into the Samba server. Note that the guest ok = yes normally doesn't grant access to every user when the server is using user-level security. Every print service must define printable = yes.
[printers] browseable = no guest ok = yes printable = yes
This last configuration snippet adds a server share called public that grants read-only access to the anonymous ftp directory. You will have to set up the printer driver on the client machine. You can use the printer name and printer driver commands to automate the process of setting up the printer client on Windows 95 and Windows NT clients.
[public] comment = Public FTP Directory path = /home/ftp/pub browseable = yes read only = yes guest ok = yes
Be aware that this description doesn't explain some subtle issues, such as the difference between user and share level security and other authentication issues. It also barely scratches the surface of what Samba can do. On the other hand, it's a good example of how easy it can be to create a simple but working smb.conf file.
Samba is the tool of choice for bridging the gap between UNIX and Windows systems. This article discussed using Samba on Linux in particular, but it is also an excellent tool for providing access to more traditional UNIX systems like Sun and RS/6000 servers. Further, Samba exemplifies the best features of free software, especially when compared to commercial offerings. Samba is powerful, well supported and under continuous active improvement by the Samba Team.

Each week we take a close look at a comic book collectible. That means taking it out of the package. If you've been checking out this feature on a regular basis, you know we like LEGO figures and sets. LEGO has released some individual MiniFigures based on the Simpsons. So of course as soon as we saw them at the store, we bought some.
You might recall back in January, we posted about the LEGO Simpsons house set. It retails for $199.99 and comes with six figures (the family and Flanders). The cool thing about these separate figures is they aren't the same exact figures. Their eyes and other details are different.
This MiniFigure set contains sixteen figures.
You may have noticed the video at the top of the page. Part of the fun of buying blind figure sets is not knowing what you're going to get. We know you guys like watching our glee and anguish in getting different ones or getting stuck with duplicates. Make sure you watch the vid first so you join in the suspense. Then look below for close ups of who we got.
The first figure we'll look at is Homer Simpson.
The nice thing about these MiniFigures is they come with accessories. You can get a glimpse at them in the directions above. Homer comes with a donut and the TV remote.
The next figure we'll look at is Bart Simpson.
Bart comes with his skateboard. You'll notice he has shorter legs to make him shorter. These figures also come with short sleeves, something LEGO figures don't usually see. The slingshot in his back pocket is a nice touch as well.
We were able to finish off the Simpson male trio is Grampa Simpson.
Abe comes with a newspaper.
Next we have Chief Wiggum.
Wiggum comes with a megaphone and baton.
Who's the funniest clown in Springfield? We're not sure either but here's a look at Krusty the Clown.
Krusty comes with a pie. Will he be able to smash it in someone's face before Homer eats it?
Next we have half the the animated duo from Krusty's show, Scratchy.
Scratchy comes with an axe.
If you watched the video, you know we ended up a double. We got two Grampas. That means that's all the figures we have to showcase. Each figure cost $3.99. You are taking a chance when you buy multiple packages. But because they come in bags instead of boxes, you could try to cheat and feel around the bag. Some figures might be obvious but others will be a little harder to distinguish from the others.
Once we opened these, we had the urge to get more. Unfortunately the next time we went to the store, they were out. Perhaps we'll look for them again.
That's it for this week. Have you seen these in stores? Did you buy any? Who did you get?

Executive Committee of the American Institute of Physics
Minutes of Meeting
December 8, 1962
Members Present: Ralph A. Sawyer – Chairman, Wallace R. Brode, S. A. Goudsmit, W. W. Havens, Jr., R. B. Lindsay, S. L. Quimby
Absent: Francis W. Sears
Guest: Frank Verbrugge
AIP Staff Present: Elmer Hutchisson, Wallace Waterfall, Henry A. Barton, Mary M. Johnson
The Chairman called the meeting to order at 9:40 a.m.
1. Minutes
Upon motion made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote, the minutes of the meeting of September 26, 1962 were approved as distributed.
2. Financial Matters
Report on Mortgage
The Treasurer reported that the mortgage arrangement which was approved by the Governing Board at its meeting on September 28 was completed on October 31, 1962. It is to be paid off, with interest at 5-5/8%, over 15 years by quarterly payments of $8,675.05 each. The net amount received after legal and other expenses was $344,286.90.
Rebate to Societies on Subscription Handling and Dues Collection Charges for 1962
The Treasurer pointed out that journal costs this year have been very high both for AIP and for Member Societies. It is estimated that AIP will lose about $37,000 on its archive journals and high subscription handling costs account for this loss. Part of these high subscription handling costs on all journals were incurred deliberately in our effort to placate irate members and subscribers and get our service back to normal. Although it is difficult even now to see how we could have avoided some of our troubles and expenses, we recognize that they are largely our responsibility.
The Treasurer recalled that, at the Executive Committee meeting on September 26, officers of AIP considered suggesting that the Institute absorb some of the additional costs of subscription handling which were incurred during 1962. The Institute staff now recommend that this be done by making unit charges to the Societies for this service for 1962 the same as they were for 1961. The amount which would thus be absorbed by AIP is estimated now at approximately $57,000 and this would be rebated to the Societies as follows:
Estimated APS $31,200 OSA 6,200 Acoustical Society 9,100 AAPT 8,800 AAS 1,700
The Treasurer displayed a graph which illustrated how unit subscription handling costs on AIP-owned journals rose gradually from approximately $1.10 in 1954 to $1.35 in 1958. In 1959 and 1960 they dropped artificially because a large portion of the costs of departments involved were charged to the conversion. In 1961, subscription handling costs rose to approximately $1.80, a figure not far out of line with the projection from earlier years, but in 1962 the unit cost has risen about 80% above 1961. Unit costs on Society journals have not risen as much in 1962 but they are higher than they should be.
In the matter of dues collection, the Treasurer reported that the following figures represent the charges per member to the Societies in 1961 and 1962:
1961 1962 (Estimated) APS $1.90 $2.19 OSA .91 .95 AAPT .83 .85 SOR .83 .92
The Treasurer of the Acoustical Society, which does not have its dues collected through the Institute, has said that his cost per member would run to $1.50 if all costs were included. In spite of this evidence that our 1962 per-member charges are not unreasonable, we are proposing to refund to the Member Societies the difference between the 1961 and 1962 figures. This will amount to about $5,300 for APS and about $100 each for the other Societies – a total of $5,600.00. This, together with the $57,000 mentioned above, will bring the total rebates to about $63,000, and it is our intention to set this up on our books as a contingent liability at the end of the year. This might be interpreted to mean that we believe 1961 costs are the proper costs. Frankly, we have made so many changes and have been operating under such difficult conditions that we don't know what costs for our various services should be. Subscription handling, dues collection and the various mailing and statistical services we provide for Societies are so interrelated that it is difficult to segregate unit costs for each operation. We do know that some of our charges for special addressing and other jobs have been substantially less than our costs and less than justified for the services performed. We plan to make every effort to reduce the costs wherever possible, to determine what really are the costs for all the various services we perform, and to make our charges to Societies commensurate with the cost of such services if performed by others.
After some discussion the following motion was then made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote:
MOVED that AIP unit charges to Societies for subscription handling and dues collection in 1962 be the same as unit charges in 1961, and that the difference between 1962 actual costs and monies collected for them be set up as a contingent liability of the Institute.
The Treasurer emphasized that this does not mean the Societies will eventually pay for the contingent liability, either directly or indirectly. It will be liquidated with fund from future AIP general income.
The Treasurer said it is generally agreed among subscription fulfillment organizations that mounting costs and the rapid development of and changes in machine methods are presenting serious problems. We believe these justify a broad study and are considering a proposal to NSF asking them to finance a thorough study of the whole situation, with a view toward finding a solution which will apply to other scientific societies as well.
Plan for Predetermining Unit Charges
The Treasurer said he looked forward to the possibility of stabilizing unit costs for subscription handling and some other services to the point where AIP could give Societies firm unit prices in the fall of each year which would apply to the succeeding year.
Installation of NCR Accounting Machine
The Treasurer said it has been realized for a long time that the Institute's accounting system is antiquated. It is slow and it is costly because the information it supplies comes too late to provide proper cost control. The first improvement was made when the Cashiering Unit was set up on the recommendation of Cresap, McCormick and Paget, and the next step will be the installation of a National Cash Register accounting machine early in 1963. The cost of the machine will be something over $10,000 which would be amortized over a 10-year period. The Treasurer displayed a picture of the machine under consideration and a chart showing accounting operations which are now being performed manually in the Institute, a large portion of which can be done by machine.
Third Quarter Statement and Budget for 1963
The Treasurer distributed copies of the third quarter 1962 statement and proposed budget for 1963 (copy attached). He explained that no written summary was prepared because, due to uncertainties and changes, the budget was completed only two days previously. He said a budget for the whole of 1963 was being presented at this time with the suggestion that it be reviewed again about the middle of next year.
At the present time it looks as though the Institute will end 1962 with a red figure of $36,660 and we have budgeted an income of $30,700 for 1963. Administrative expense projected to the end of 1962 is about as budgeted. It has been increased to $196,000 for 1963 because it includes Corporate Associates expense, including personnel, which previously was a separate item. Only 10% of total administrative expense gets distributed on the service departments, parts of which are then charged to the Societies. In 1963 we will not credit overhead from grants to the departments which administer them; it will credited to the general income of the Institute instead. This is the reason 1963 budgets for some departments which have large grants, such as Public Relations and Education, appear to be out of line with 1962 figures.
Advertising, as usual, is a bright spot in the budget. Income projected to the end of 1962 is expected to be higher than budgeted. Because of increased circulation we are raising the rate on PHYSICS TODAY for 1963. The loss on all AIP archive journals for 1962 will be about $37,000 and a loss of $55,000 is budgeted for next year. Even though we expect to cut subscription handling costs in 1963, other costs will be going up and we will have to raise some subscription prices for 1964 and/or raise publication charges sooner if possible.
Special projects have always helped to cover overhead and we expect to realized about $107,000 from these this year. We are still getting only 15% overhead on grants and we feel confident we can justify a larger percentage on at least some. We intend to pursue this matter soon after the first of the year.
Upon motion made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote, the proposed budget for 1963 was adopted.
Mr. Verbrugge pointed out that some of the administrative work on education and manpower projects is done through AAPT committees and AAPT is, in effect, subsidizing some of these projects. It was suggested to Mr. Verbrugge that the cost of such committee activities often can legitimately be considered part of the cost of the projects and should be included when future proposals are submitted.
Transfer of Operating Reserve Funds to Cover Part of 1962 Journals Deficit
The Treasurer stated that our Operating Reserve now amounts to $24,275 and recommended that it be applied against 1962 journal losses since this was the purpose for which the reserve was accumulated. This would reduce the over-all AIP loss for 1962 to about $12,000.00. The following motion was then made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote:
MOVED that the staff be authorized to draw funds from the Operating Reserve to cover, in part, the net loss from AIP archive journal operations for 1962.
3. Status Report on Corporate Associates
The Director distributed copies of a status report on Corporate Associates as of December 7, 1962 (copy attached). He explained that the difference between the gross and net amounts reported represents the money credited to AIP and Member Society journals which are paid at the full non-member rates. The reason total billings for 1963 were lower than for 1962 is that we now have better statistics on the number of physicists in each company. Our Advisory Committee on Corporate Associates has been very helpful in writing letters and assisting us in other ways; and the Governing Board and Executive Committee are encouraged to suggest additional companies for Corporate Associate membership.
4. Status Report on 1963 Dues Collection and Subscription Handling
The Secretary displayed a chart containing the following information on member and non-member renewal billings. Over 17,000 member bills were sent out by September 21 and almost 27,000 by December 7. Member remittances received by December 7 were 14,500. Over 9,000 non-member bills were mailed by October 26 and 13,500 by December 7. Returns to December 7 were less than 2,000. More than 50% of our non-member subscriptions come through agencies and these agencies have different ways of handling subscriptions. We plan to use a different way of billing for non-member subscriptions next year. In addition to the billings, a reminder letter was mailed to all 1962 subscribers and a form letter was sent to all members who were delinquent for 1962.
The Secretary displayed another chart showing that the number of member letters regarding subscriptions received at the APS office dropped from 130 per month in March to less than 15 per month in November, while member letters received at AIP went from almost 520 per month in March to about 295 in September. From the of October until the end of November, after renewal bills went out, member correspondence received at AIP rose from less than 360 to over 600. Another chart indicated that over 10,000 changes of address have been received so far in 1962 – 3,000 during November. A fourth chart showed the volume of non-member subscription correspondence at different periods and how it is affected by billings. Non-member subscriptions always involve a lot of correspondence but this can be reduced as we get our operations in order and improve our procedures.
Planned Equipment Changes
The Secretary stated that a number of changes are contemplated, one of the most important being the replacement of our Scriptomatic equipment with a new small computer which will produce a much more legible address and make possible several simplifications in our system.
5. Appointments
The Director reported that the terms of some Institute appointees expire at or close to the end of the year, and he suggested new appointments as follows:
Representative to AAAS Council
Horace M. Trent for a 2-year term to replace Malcolm C. Henderson whose term will expire January 15, 1963.
Editorial Boards of Institute Journals
- L. S. Bartell
- Richard B. Bernstein
- H. P. Broida
- Martin Karplus
- J. A. Pople
- G. Wilse Robinson
- LeRoy Apker
- Sanborn C. Brown
- Nicolaas Bloembergen
- Sidney C. Abrahams
- Robert J. Bowman
- Richard D. Hiebert
- Robert Gomer
- Louis F. Drummeter
- G. K. O'Neil
- George E. Smith
The above nominees have been recommended for terms through 1965 by the editors of the respective journals. Lists of nominees have not yet been received from the editor of THE PHYSICS OF FLUIDS and from the editor of the JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS.
Representative to the Board of ACTA METALLURGICA
The term of our representative, Robert L. Sproull, expires on December 31, 1962 and, in view of the fact that there has been no indication that continued representation is desired, it was recommended that no replacement for Mr. Sproull be appointed.
Upon motion made, seconded and passed without dissent, the appointments of Mr. Trent and the above-listed editorial boards were approved with the provision that the Director be empowered to make the appointments for PF and JMP when editors' recommendations are received.
Committee to Nominate Chairman, Executive Committee and Director-at-Large
Motion was made, seconded and passed unanimously that the Chairman be authorized to appoint the subject committee.
Chairman Sawyer named Wallace R. Brode as chairman and Winston E. Kock and W. V. Houston as the other two members of a Committee to Nominate the Chairman and Executive Committee for the coming year and a Director-at-Large for a three year term.
Committee on PHYSICS TODAY
The Director recalled that, at the September 28 Governing Board meeting, he was instructed to appoint a committee to study the objectives and performance of PHYSICS TODAY. He suggested that the committee consist of the members of the present PT Editorial Advisory Board, plus five additional persons as follows:
- W. W. Havens, Jr., Chairman
- Paul M. Routly
- Donald Cunningham
- Lewis Slack
- Charles Kittel or alternate
Present PT Editorial Board
- Stanley S. Ballard
- Karl K. Darrow
- Cyril M. Harris
- Bryce Maxwell
- Frank Verbrugge
Upon motion made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote, the above committee was appointed.
6. Director of Education and Manpower
The Director reported confidentially that William C. Kelly had expressed a desire to return to teaching and that it might be necessary for the Institute to seek a replacement within the next year. After brief discussion, during which all members praised Mr. Kelly's ability and accomplishments, the following motion was made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote:
MOVED that the Director be urged to make every possible effort to retain Mr. Kelly's services inasmuch as his leaving would be a real loss, not only to the Institute but to all of physics.
7. Change of Rule on Member Subscription Rates for AIP Journals
The Secretary stated that it has been Institute policy to offer AIP journals to members of member organizations at less than non-member rates.
Member and non-member rates now in effect are as follows:
|Member Rate
|Non-Member Rate
The Society of Rheology has several "institutional members" who pay dues of only $6.00 per year at the present time and are thereby eligible to subscribe to these journals at the reduced rates, saving up to $35.00. Libraries have been quick to find this loophole and an increasing number are taking advantage of it. Other Member Societies have corporate membership rates which are high enough to preclude any such savings. The staff recommends that our rules be changed to read: "Persons who are members of member organizations…." The Secretary said he had talked this change over with the Secretary of the Society of Rheology who has no objection. The following motion was made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote:
MOVED that the Institute change its rule to provide that only persons who are members of member organizations may subscribe to Institute journals at the reduced member rates.
8. Second Class Mailing Privileges
Mr. Brode pointed out that, in order to obtain second class mailing privileges, the mailer is required by the Post Office Department to comply with various regulations of which the Institute and Member Societies may not be aware. Mr. Brode recommended that the Secretary obtain legal advice on current procedures and advise the Societies what, if any, changes should be made.
9. APS Journal Rates
Mr. Havens said he has been concerned about the large number of different rates paid by members of APS for various journals and, after brief discussion, the following motion was made, seconded and passed without dissent:
MOVED that the Director be requested to investigate the propriety of so many different journal rates and communicate his findings and recommendations to Society Secretaries.
10. Status Report on AIP Offices Outside of New York City
The Director reported that the staff had been inquiring into the possibility of supplementary west coast and Washington offices for AIP. He said the staff had been thinking in terms of a Washington Office to be shared with Member Societies but there has not been much enthusiasm for this arrangement. The APS Council expressed interest in the concept of a supplementary west coast office for the Institute and has offered suggestions as to a representative. However, the staff is not ready to make any specific recommendation at this time.
The meeting adjourned for luncheon with the Commission on College Physics at 12:20 p.m. and reconvened at 2:00 p.m.
11. Niels Bohr Symposium
The Director stated that he had been advised by an industrial corporation that they would like to finance and help organize, on behalf of AIP, a day-long symposium in memory of Niels Bohr to which outstanding physicists would be invited. He informed the corporation that APS was planning a similar memorial at its Washington meeting and he recommended they contact John Wheeler or Karl Darrow. After brief discussion the following motion was made, seconded and passed unanimously:
MOVED that, whereas it is contrary to the policy of the American Institute of Physics to organize or participate in meetings which duplicate activities of the Member Societies, the Institute decline to participate in the proposed Niels Bohr Symposium.
12. International Magnetics Conference in 1967
The Director reported that some members of the groups which has been active in arranging the yearly magnetism conferences sponsored by AIEE and AIP have been requested to consider the holding of an IUPAP international conference on magnetics in the United States in 1967. The Institute has been asked to act as host. After a discussion of this request at the last APS Council Meeting, the staff recommends that the Executive Committee approve this activity with the understanding that the Institute will suffer no monetary loss. The Director said he would insist that a steering committee be set up on which we would have adequate representation and we would also want to be represented on any committee concerned with publication of the proceedings. The following motion was made, seconded and passed without dissenting vote:
MOVED that the Institute be authorized to serve as host to the proposed 1967 IUPAP International Magnetics Conference provided that no financial loss will be incurred.
12. Suggested Committee on Ethics for the Physics Profession
The Director distributed copies of correspondence suggesting the establishment of a committee on ethical practices for the profession of physics, particularly in connection with publications and the refereeing of papers. He said this matter was referred to AIP by the APS Council. During the discussion which followed, it was suggested that the same problems exist in other scientific disciplines and this might be an appropriate subject for AAAS to consider. Mr. Goudsmit was particularly concerned about the problem of material in the hands of referees being released to the press before it has been reported in the journals. The Director said he would report the consensus of the Executive Committee to the proponents of this suggestion and to Dael Wolfle of AAAS.
13. Printing Contracts
Mr. Goudsmit stated that Mr. Condon, Editor of RMP, is somewhat apprehensive about the fact that AIP does not have a written contract with Lane Press. The Secretary said that the Institute has been dealing with Lane through Columbia University Press, with whom we have done business for many years but, for the sake of protection, he will investigate the desirability of a contract.
14. Next Meeting
The next meeting of the Executive Committee will be a breakfast meeting to be held in the Village Room of the Hotel Statler on Friday, January 25, 1963 starting at 8:00 a.m.
The meeting adjourned at 2:35 p.m.

At first, Assassins look to be a pretty strong class. High crit strike rates, fast attack speeds, double strike, and nice energy regen seems pretty promising. And it it looks as though you could take out a single target in PvP literally by pressing 1, 2, 3, 4.
However, the Assassin seems to me like one of the most easily countered classes in the game. I have seen very little self heals, condition removals, hex removals, etc. from the builds that people have submitted. All I'm saying is that I think the dagger combos are a bit overrated, and that it will take more strategy than most people think to play an effective assassin. Instead of assassin builds that focus on targeting a single enemy and killing it as fast as possible, I'm trying to think of some builds where you play like a _real_ Assassin, making use of the assassin's speed buff skills (which can be both offensive and defensive) and the unique shadow step ability. Example: tab between enemies until you find one that you can finish off, and teleport to an ally near that enemy. OR play a defensive assassin: watch your allies' health bars, when you see someones health start dropping, teleport to the ally and cripple/KD the assailant in order to save your mate.

Dan Brereton broke into the comics scene in the late 80's/early 90's with books like The Black Terror from Eclipse, and The Psycho from DC Comics. His distinct painted art style stood out among the other comics being published at that time. In 1995 Brereton introduced his creator-owned series The Nocturnals to the world. The Nocturnals is a pulp style horror series about a bunch of supernatural crime fighters, starring a cast of colorful characters like Doc Horror, his daughter Evening AKA Halloween Girl, Firelion(a revived victim of spontaneous human combustion), and many, many more.
The Nocturnals are celebrating their 20th Anniversary with a special KickStarter campaign for their next graphic novel The Sinister Path. There's less than 2 days left as I write this, so hurry over there, if you're interested.
Other works of note by Dan Brereton are Giantkiller, Batman: Thrillkiller, Legends of the World's Finest, and The Last Battle, just to name a few.
Brereton has been nominated for 5 Eisner Awards, and has won an Inkpot Award.

Lot's of window lets the sunshine in, and the upstairs bedrooms are beautiful, especially the master suite.
The house is a short drive to many of the Truro beaches, and a short walk to one in particular. We called it "the morning beach" as some of us would go just after breakfast while others slept in.
The house is also immaculate , and Marlis and Frank (the owners) couldn't of been nicer.
I would highly recommend this house for those wanting a true Truro experience.
i can't wait to come back again!
We are very happy you enjoyed your stay and found it comfortable for your family gathering. We are always striving to make sure our guests feel welcome and that it is immaculate. We want the house to reflect what we would expect for ourselves. Your opinion is important to us, since this is what future renters will be reading.
We hope that you will come back and visit Truro, (one of the most beautiful spots on earth) and choose our house for
your next vacation.
Cape Cod vacation stay at the Whale Watch House
Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope you will choose to stay at our house again in the future.
From the Owner
"The house was exceptionally well built, with high ceilings, beautiful oversized windows, which makes the house very bright and cheery, crown moldings and coffered ceilings, dark oak floors, open kitchen to the dining room and living room, private bath for each bed room. It is very private, because it is situated away from the street and has trees and planting surrounding it which make it invisible to the neighbors."

From the Owner
"We can go out of the front door and walk to our own private beach, or get on the bicycle and start pedaling along Shore Road or to the Head of the Meadow. Go walking on the open ocean beaches, watch the Whales and Seals from the shore. It's beautiful where ever one looks. Provincetown is only about 10 miles away and so is their airport and ferry boats to Boston."

Heavy music or progressive music as general cases, are not always appreciated by the masses. 8 minute epics are either for you, or not for you.
I don't agree with that. I like Yes, who has some 20 minute tracks. I love Soft Machine (prog/fusion whatever rock) with many >10 minute tracks. I love King Crimson, that is progressive and sometimes heavy, and has many >8 minute tracks. Voivod and Frank Zappa has some complex songs and definitely not for the masses (except for Frank's parody music stuff). I like early Genesis too. So I can say I love progressive music.
My problem with Tool is not the lengthiness, or epicness itself. Maybe my problem with Tool and similar prog bands is that I feel they are trying too hard to be epic for the epicness, to be complex for the complexness, and progressive for the sake of progressiveness. Plus somehow they perfect the crap their studio albums until they become totally sterile for me.
But it's just my opinion, I just wanted to say that you can't draw any conclusions about someone's taste of music just from him/her not liking a particular (and quite widely known and popular from a genre) band.

Calyx!!! I've been wearing this scent since 1986--love it! It's so hard to find so thank you, Fragrancenet, for keeping it in stock. I love that it's not a recognizable by many and always complimented on the scent. I like not smelling like the typical fragrances-- Men especially seem to love the fresh smell. I was walking to my office last week and the man behind me ran up to me to ask what I was wearing. :-)

Deputy Housekeeper of Vivanta by Taj Surya, Geoffin Daniel, guides Pankaja Srinivasan from damp, smelly bathrooms to fresh bright ones in a few simple steps
Cleaning a bathroom is overwhelming. Especially if it has been a while since you have done it. Geoffin Daniel, Housekeeper at The Taj Vivanta who is responsible for all the sparkling bathrooms in the hotel says it need not be so swamping. He starts with the instantly-feel-good tip. "Just put everything back in their place," he says. This means, cap the toothpaste tube, snap the shampoo lid shut, straighten out the shaving kit, pour out the excess water from the soap dish, arrange the buckets neatly, keep the mug where it belongs and empty the bathroom of soggy clothes. There! Your bathroom already looks and feels better. Of course this is just to motivate you to do better.
But when you have to get down and dirty, he says: "When you look at a bathroom, break it down into three main sections.
Below the knee level, chest to knee level and above chest level
It is the below-the-knee level that needs most attention. That is because we walk into the bathroom with dirty shoes, there is always water on the floor, and you look down at the toilet bowl. Once you tackle this level, everything else is easy.
W/C, the toughest one
Use a cleaner with a ph below seven for this (do not use very strong acids). Use the traditional round brush that reaches everywhere. Start with the inner rims and progress lower. If you push the brush at an angle inside the W/C, it drains the water out. This helps you tackle the tough yellow stains and the dirty ring formed thanks to the salt deposits. Wear gloves, especially when cleaning the inside of the toilet bowl and under its rim. Clean these areas with a green scrub pad. DO NOT use emery sheets as these will leave grooves and dirt will get ingrained in them which will be difficult to clean later.
Flush the toilet
Pour Chemical and spread evenly with brush
Allow it to stand for a while (this is a good time to move on to other areas of the bathroom) and scrub
Clean the toilet seat the last. Spray mild cleaner on it and wipe dry.
Do NOT use acid
Use a mild cleaner.
Dilute the cleaner further and pour into a spray bottle. Spray onto the tile and wipe with soft cloth
For stubborn stains, use the green scrubber
Wash basins
Clean the wash basin every day.
Spray a mild cleaner and wipe with a dry cloth
The stubborn stains can be removed with green scrub
Pay attention to the splash areas around the wash basin. They can collect germs.
Do NOT use acid. It might clean the wash basin but it will harm its surface.
Make sure to peep under the washbasin. It is an area we normally forget about. That also needs periodic cleaning
Take the floor
The floor should ideally be cleaned every day. And thoroughly at least once a week.
Pour water. Sweep the excess off.
For the heavier cleaning, use cleaners with mild bleach content.
Scrub stubborn stains with long-handled nylon brush.
Clean with water and dry off the floor with water pusher followed by a mop.
Tip: Spread a few newspapers on the floor. The bleach in the newsprint acts as a cleaner and it also absorbs any residual urine smells in the bathrooms.
Use really dilute cleaning liquids
Use the soft cloth to wipe them dry
Do not use abrasive scrubs
Mirror/ glass surfaces
Do NOT use any strong chemicals
Use a cleaner that is high on alcohol content. As alcohol evaporates, it will leave no residual marks. News paper is great to wipe the surface
Flow chart
Break down the chores: You don't have to do everything every day.
Allot one task per day: Do the washbasin one day, a corner wall one day (it is okay to clean even just four tiles a day; it is called square feet cleaning).
Make a chart: Pin it up so that you know what you have to do each day. This makes it easier to tackle.
Get a cleaning caddy: To keep all cleaning agents/scrubs/mops/gloves together. This way you will have everything at hand when you decide to clean.
Banish smells: Follow a systematic procedure and tackle each area regularly, and there will be no smells. Do not use cleaning agents that are over-perfumed. Perfumes are not necessary if the cleaning job is done well.
Keywords: bathroom tiling, bathroom maintenance, wash basins, bathroom fixtures

Pearl Jam – Lightning Bolt
Rs 395 (CD)
You can't badmouth Pearl Jam. For over two decades, they have been the last Seattle grunge band standing undisturbed and without any hiatuses or glitzy solo breakaway members (I'm looking at you, Chris Cornell from Soundgarden). People still keep coming back for whatever Pearl Jam has to offer, and they never leave disappointed. That's the case with the band's tenth studio album.
For all those years they've stuck together and released album after album, there's the realization that they've become a bit dated. Most of the tunes on Lightning Bolt are meant for another generation, although it tries very hard to snap up new fans with pop rock numbers like 'Infallible'. But that's track number six. If you abide by the track list, there are five of the most energetic and eclectic songs the band has ever put out – from the get-angry stomper 'Mind Your Manners' to the all-guitars-blazing title track 'Lightning Bolt' and the half-psychedelic trip 'Sirens'.
If you heard their last album, the mostly-fun Backspacer , from back in 2009, you'd think that they've carried the same format of progressing from energetic to mired in thought, reflective music through the course of their album. It certainly works, because you know that they're the kind of band, and Eddie Vedder is the kind of vocalist, who would like to ponder out loud. His vocals suit ponderings as well, like 'Swallowed Whole', which sounds like a tree-hugger's perfect anthem of being one with nature. But then you hear 'Let The Records Play', Vedder's voice soothing you to feel-goodsville over some Southern rock riffs. They interchange the heavy with the soft, like the folk-rock 'Sleeping By Myself'.
That's obviously the great mark of an alternative rock band – they can mix it up without boring you much at all. And the fact that Pearl Jam has been doing this for the past 10 albums with few complaints is a sign that they've aged gracefully.

Wyle Laboratories
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (June 2014)
Wyle is a privately held provider of specialized engineering, scientific and technical services to the Department of Defense, NASA, and a variety of commercial customers primarily in the aerospace industry. The Company offers services in the areas of test and evaluation; systems engineering and information technology; life cycle and acquisition program management; life sciences research; space medical operations and engineering; and qualification testing for systems and components.
Founded in 1949, the Company is still headquartered in El Segundo, California, and has approximately 4,800 employees at more than 50 facilities nationwide. Wyle comprises three primary operating entities: Aerospace Group, CAS Group, and Integrated Science and Engineering Group. Annual revenue is approximately $1.1 billion.
Founded in 1949 by Frank S. Wyle (grandfather of actor Noah Wyle) as part of the rapidly expanding Southern California aerospace industry, Wyle Laboratories, Inc. began operations in El Segundo, CA as a testing laboratory. Over time, the company diversified into a variety of markets and businesses. Through a buy-out in 1995, the company was split into Wyle Electronics and the Scientific Services and Systems Group, which continued to operate as Wyle Laboratories. In 2007, the company decided to simplify its name to Wyle since its primary business focus had evolved into a wide range of high tech services and solutions. It still operates laboratories, but its primary business focus is on securing long term services contracts from the Department of Defense, NASA and other Federal agencies.
In 1998, Wyle acquired Krug Life Sciences, an aero-medical research company with 30-plus years of history supporting NASA's manned space flight programs. In January 2005, Wyle acquired the General Dynamics Aeronautics division, formerly a part of Veridian, adding aviation research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) expertise to the Company's portfolio.
In 2008, Wyle acquired RS Information Systems, which today is the Company's third primary business group, providing services as Wyle Information Systems Group. The acquisition brought total annual revenue to $800 million and the total number of employees to 4,200, giving Wyle an additional presence in the Washington D.C. "Beltway" area. In a subsequent reorganization, Wyle's heritage Test, Engineering and Research Group was folded into the Aerospace Group, returning the organization to three primary business groups, but with an emphasis on aerospace and IT systems rather than independent test and evaluation. The unit was subsequently split off again in late 2010 and operates as an independent unit within Wyle.
In May 2009, Wyle entered into a merger agreement to be acquired by Court Square Capital Partners, an investment company which is now the majority shareholder.
In September 2010, Wyle bought the CAS unit from ITT and organized it as the company's fourth operating group. The CAS Group specializes in a wide range of services and solutions to the U.S. Army and related customers.
In June 2014, Timothy E. Eastman, writer of Physics and Whitehead (2004),[1] who is the Space Science Data Deputy Group Manager, attended the Kluge Center's Astrobiology Program at the Library of Congress.
