Projects on ICT for development (ICT4D) are an important tool to incorporate positive changes in these communities. However, as with other technologies, ICT and particularly software supporting social processes have a huge potential for change, and for replication to many of these communities, but also a huge potential for disruption. From experience in over 50 ICT4D projects, we have learned how important it is to design and implement an open and participatory process based on the service learning (SL) concept, where different forms of learning, service and free and open source software (FOSS) become natural and interdependent parts of social development. The lessons learned help us in designing sustainable processes for positive change supported by FOSS that can be appropriated by indigenous communities, contributing to their social development and social justice. 2014-09-09T08:42:40Z Opportunistic routing in wireless mesh networks http://hdl.handle.net/2117/20315 Title: Opportunistic routing in wireless mesh networks Authors: Darehshoorzadeh, Amir; Cerdà Alabern, Llorenç; Pla Boscà, Vicent Abstract: Opportunistic Routing (OR) has been proposed as a way to increase the performance of wireless networks by exploiting its broadcast nature. In OR, instead of pre-selecting a single specific node to be the next-hop as a forwarder for a packet, multiple nodes can potentially be selected as the next-hop forwarder. Thus the source can use multiple potential paths to deliver the packets to the destination. More specially, when the current node transmits a packet, all the candidates that receive the packet successfully will coordinate with each other to determine which one would actually forward the packet according to some criteria, while the other nodes will simply discard the packet. In this chapter, we survey the state of the art in OR, then focus on the candidates selection algorithms and carry out a comparative performance evaluation of the most relevant proposals appeared in the literature. 2013-10-07T09:29:33Z Power management in sensing subsystem of wireless multimedia sensor networks http://hdl.handle.net/2117/18788 Title: Power management in sensing subsystem of wireless multimedia sensor networks Authors: Alaei, Mohammad; Barceló Ordinas, José María Abstract: A wireless sensor network consists of sensor nodes deployed over a geographical area for monitoring physical phenomena like temperature, humidity, vibrations, seismic events, and so on. Typically, a sensor node is a tiny device that includes three basic components: a sensing subsystem for data acquisition from the physical surrounding environment, a processing subsystem for local data processing and storage, and a wireless communication subsystem for data transmission. In addition, a power source supplies the energy needed by the device to perform the programmed task. This power source often consists of a battery with a limited energy budget. In addition, it is usually impossible or inconvenient to recharge the battery, because nodes are deployed in a hostile or unpractical environment. On the other hand, the sensor network should have a lifetime long enough to fulfill the application requirements. Accordingly, energy conservation in nodes and maximization of network lifetime are commonly recognized as a key challenge in the design and implementation of WSNs. Experimental measurements have shown that generally data transmission is very expensive in terms of energy consumption, while data processing consumes significantly less (Raghunathan et al., 2002). The energy cost of transmitting a single bit of information is approximately the same as that needed for processing a thousand operations in a typical sensor node (Pottie & Kaiser, 2000). The energy consumption of the sensing subsystem depends on the specific sensor type. In some cases of scalar sensors, it is negligible with respect to the energy consumed by the processing and, above all, the communication subsystems. In other cases, the energy expenditure for data sensing may be comparable to, or even greater (in the case of multimedia sensing) than the energy needed for data transmission. In general, energy-saving techniques focus on two subsystems: the communication subsystem (i.e., energy management is taken into account in the operations of each single node, as well as in the design of networking protocols), and the sensing subsystem (i.e., techniques are used to reduce the amount or frequency of energy-expensive samples). 2013-04-15T10:50:13Z RSU deployment for content dissemination and downloading in intelligent transportation systems http://hdl.handle.net/2117/18201 Title: RSU deployment for content dissemination and downloading in intelligent transportation systems Authors: Reineri, Massimo; Casetti, Claudio; Chiasserini, Carla-Fabiana; Fiore, Marco; Trullols Cruces, Óscar; Barceló Ordinas, José María 2013-03-12T10:50:20Z Las comunicaciones móviles en los edificios inteligentes http://hdl.handle.net/2117/18011 Title: Las comunicaciones móviles en los edificios inteligentes Authors: Reyes Muñoz, María Angélica Abstract: Este trabajo presenta una plataforma de red móvil aplicada a los entornos de edificios inteligentes.

The level of access to information and communications technologies (ICTs) is high. For instance, 63.6 % of households have at least one computer, and 51% of the population are internet users.2 The educational sector is particularly well connected: all universities have Wi-Fi internet access on their campuses, and 99.3 % of schools have ICT equipment and internet access. 2010-12-20T16:17:28Z Spain http://hdl.handle.net/2117/10686 Title: Spain Authors: Guasch, Assumpció; Navarro Moldes, Leandro Abstract: How can we make citizens' rights effective in the information society? Without a doubt, the answer is: with a wider and more direct participation by citizens. However, the development of the information society is dominated by a commercial and technical perspective that tends to be emphasised to the detriment of other perspectives that are much more important but more difficult to measure. These include: the definition of the rules of the game and the "social contract" (e.g. legal framework), as well as indicators of indirect impact such as production of and access to knowledge, changes in social relations and participation. 2010-12-20T15:53:42Z Spain http://hdl.handle.net/2117/10682 Title: Spain Authors: Navarro Moldes, Leandro Abstract: Information and communications technologies (ICTs) constitute a market where diverse industries, producers and consumers converge, but also a public space where citizens and organisations live and interact. Although the ICT market is huge and involves a large part of the population, the ICT public space as a social structure where citizens and organisations exercise the right to communicate is fragile and underdeveloped. In this context, this report focuses on appropriateness of technology and locally relevant content, applications and services. 2010-12-20T12:38:27Z Toward QoS provision for virtualized resources in grids http://hdl.handle.net/2117/10307 Title: Toward QoS provision for virtualized resources in grids Authors: Rodríguez Haro, Fernando; Freitag, Fèlix; Navarro Moldes, Leandro Abstract: Virtualization solutions have recently gained considerable attention for supporting the consolidation of application servers into one physical machine. In a vanilla Xen implementation the scheduler shares equally all of the available physical CPU resources among the contending VMs. However, when the application that runs in the virtual machine space changes dynamically its resource requirements, a different solution is needed. Furthermore, if the resource usage is associated with service-level agreements, a predefined equal share of the processor power is not sufficient for the VMs. In this chapter, we present an approach to manage the QoS of virtualized resources in Grids. Our solution adjusts the resources needed by each VM according to an agreed QoS. We achieve this by a local resource manager (LRM), which we implemented as a prototype and deployed on Xen-virtualized machines. By means of experiments we show that the implemented management component can meet the service-level objectives (SLOs) by dynamically adjusting virtualized resources according to demand. 2010-11-16T12:13:43Z La xarxa Internet com a xarxa social http://hdl.handle.net/2117/7072 Title: La xarxa Internet com a xarxa social Authors: Medina Llinàs, Manuel 2010-04-23T17:01:40Z Evaluation of a cooperative ARQ protocol for delay-tolerant vehicular networks http://hdl.handle.net/2117/6644 Title: Evaluation of a cooperative ARQ protocol for delay-tolerant vehicular networks Authors: Morillo Pozo, Julián David; Trullols Cruces, Óscar; Barceló Ordinas, José María; García Vidal, Jorge Abstract: This paper evaluates a Cooperative ARQ protocol to be used in delay-tolerant vehicular networks. The scenario consists in cars downloading information from Access Points along a road. The key difference between proposed Cooperative ARQ protocols is when the cooperation takes place. Simply C-ARQ cooperation occurs in a packet-by-packet basis. In this proposal, that we call DC-ARQ (Delayed Cooperative ARQ), the cooperation is delayed until cars are out of the coverage area of the Access Point. The scheme has been evaluated through simulations. A comparison of DC-ARQ with a baseline case in which no cooperation is used has been performed under different vehicle densities scenarios. 2010-03-15T10:51:22Z Grid4All: open market places for democratic grids http://hdl.handle.net/2117/6570 Title: Grid4All: open market places for democratic grids Authors: Krishnaswamy, Ruby; Navarro Moldes, Leandro; Brunner, René; León Gutiérrez, Xavier; Vilajosana Guillen, Xavier Abstract: The Grid4All project is focused on the provision of the benefits and opportunities of Grids for everyone, including small organizations such as schools, families, non-governmental organizations, or small businesses. This involves multiple relevant and related aspects despite the scale of the global system: (i) self-management of applications as they adapt to environmental changes, (ii) the complexity of developing and using applications in that situation by multiple users, (iii) and the need to organize, govern, and regulate the community. Grid4All1 promotes the concept of a democratic Grid, virtual organizations and self-management systems, based on decentralized overlays. Thereby, the providers offer resources and services either for a shared-interest within a virtual organization (pooling) or for an open market across virtual organizations. These two models of distributing resources that co-exist locally, contribute to achieve global regulation. We propose an architecture according to these ideas, which are inspired by real-world cases, which include a collection of data sharing and execution services, used by collaborative applications. 2010-03-08T15:02:04Z 8.

Punctuation Party Mansion
Mariel and Colleen hit the streets of Toronto to take a closer look at how we actually use punctuation. We inspected posters, signs and well, anything with writing. It turns out that we're pretty good at inserting commas and apostrophes as needed. But we did find some inspired punctuation usage.

Jerry Drucker: One score and ten years ago the Republican Party brought forth to this nation, a concept conceived in the privatization of government for profit, dedicated to the proposition that large corporations (now persons), special interest groups and lobbyists, can expand the United States wealth for those several entities and the vast eternal warring military-industrial complex.
Bill Clinton Puts Influential Muscle Behind Agricultural Production in Haiti
Georgianne Nienaber: Given the huge remaining humanitarian and economic crisis facing Haiti, it is puzzling that mainstream media in the United States short-changed coverage of former President Bill Clinton's early August visit to Leogane. The symbolism is significant, considering that Leogane and the nearby village of Fayette are at the epicenter of the 7.0 quake.
Obama Missed Opportunity to Tell It Like It Is
Robert Reich: The man who electrified the nation with his speech at the Democratic National Convention of 2004 put it to sleep Tuesday night. President Obama's address to the nation from the Oval Office was, to be frank, vapid. If you watched with the sound off you might have thought he was giving a lecture on the history of the Interstate Highway System.
Time for a New DNC Chair!
Steve Ybarra: The $28 million that the Big O spent on Latinos and Chicanos was well spent and did the job of helping Latinos nationwide figure out that the Democratic Party was indeed on their side. So far, since the new DNC Chair (whoever he is) has been in office, we have seen absolutely no evidence that he gets it. So it is time for him to be shown the door and let's get back to winning the midterms and finding a dogcatcher to elect.
Obama, Never Mind FDR, How about JKP?
The Christmas Eve Freedom Fighters
William Loren Katz: This is the nation of Patrick Henry and "Give me Liberty or give me death!" The United States was born in struggle against British colonial rule. It proudly declared people had natural rights and dedicated itself to self-determination. The heroic, freedom fighting struggle of the Seminole nation stands as a milestone in the American battle for liberty.

Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 monthPros:
Solid built, cheap priced. Compared with the Zippos sold here, it looks like a 2nd grade device but it is still very good by its own merits.Cons:
Mine come with some oxide in the finish but I was able to remove it easily. The box is nice but does not match with the classic lighter's design and mine came in a pink box (a lighter for ladies only? I don't think so).OtherThoughts:
You can also get replacement flint stones and cotton wick here at very low prices (even the genuine ones from Zippo). Just avoid using cheap fluid: they smell bad and make it hard to ignite sometimes.Bottomline:
Need to give a nice gift for a smoker friend and you can only spend a few bucks? This is the answer you want.

Computer: Asus S56C- runs windows 8.1 So a few months ago my cat knocked over a cup of milk on my laptop, and I quickly removed the battery and took the computer apart to dry, etc. and everything was working fine except I accidentally unplugged the ribbon cable attaching the audio jack and a usb port. I didn't worry too much about it because it wasn't a huge inconvenience. Yesterday my dad said that it was really easy to plug it back in (I couldn't figure out how at the time), so we took my laptop back apart and plugged it back in and everything was fine. The speakers had been working before this, and the audio jack worked for about an hour. I paused a song and when I hit play again it wouldn't work. I took the headphones out and the speakers were also not working. However, when I use an HDMI to plug the computer into my tv the audio works through the TV. I ran the windows diagnostic which said it didn't detect any problems, and made sure the speakers were actually enabled. I uninstalled and reinstalled the audio driver (Realtek something or other) about 10 times. I checked the BIOS thing and audio is enabled. No, my computer is not muted. It detects when I plug/unplug headphones and the usb port on the same ribbon cable still works fine. Whenever I test the speakers windows acts as if there is not problem. I also did a system restore to about a week ago. Still no sound.
If anyone has any idea what could be wrong it'd be greatly appreciated. I don't even know if it's a hardware or a software problem at this point, but my computer recognizes the speakers/headphones and says they work fine so I feel like it's software. I don't know though.

US banks' profits hit a six-year highFebruary 27,2013WASHINGTON — Profits at U.S. banks jumped almost 37 percent from October through December, reaching the highest level in six years as banks continued to step up lending.
The figures are fresh evidence of the industry's sustained recovery four years after the financial crisis.
Banks earned $34.7 billion in the fourth quarter, the highest since the same period in 2006, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. reported Tuesday. Sixty percent of banks reported improved earnings from the fourth quarter of 2011, the agency said.
The FDIC, created during the Great Depression to ensure bank deposits, monitorsthe financial condition of U.S banks.

Nissan Altima Problem Report
Nissan Altima Gas Cap Warning Light On
(7 reports)
The gas cap warning light may illuminate. The can be caused by a loose or defective gas cap or a small leak in the evaporative system. A small leak can be very difficult to diagnose, often times a smoke machine can be used to try and isolate a leak.
Loose gas cap message showing on display after filling the tank the other day. Removed cap and retightened cap several times. Message is still displaying. - Visitor

Gas cap light came on today. We purchased a beautiful 2011 slightly used Nissan Altima purchased last Friday. The car is a dream to drive, very comfortable, love the key fob/no shifting, but argh...this light shocked me today! I sure hope this will not be a continuing saga. Oh bother!!! Went to dealer today, and they seemed unshocked by it...told me to bring back if happens again...sure hope not in vapor system, too. sure hope does not happen again or more like above poster. :( - Visitor

Gas cap waring light comes on abot 100 miles after putting gas in the car. This then turns on the check engine light. Been to the dealer each time, one answer the gas cap was loose and it will reset in about a week, the second time the cap has to be put in an exact way to prevent the problem. I do know how to put a gas cap on and feel there may more to this problem. - aabot01

Superfeet was founded by podiatric doctors to provide affordable orthotics to the public. Since 1977, Superfeet has created comfortable insoles and orthotics for all sorts of footwear needs. Different types of feet require different types of footwear, so Superfeet provides insoles for any foot type or any sport or activity.
Superfeet insoles excel in providing support and shock absorption with its patented Stabilizer Capsule, deep heel cup, and shape. Heat and friction are reduced with the use of Holofiber fabric, thus keeping your feet cool and comfortable all day long.
First, determine if you have a neutral, pronated (turning inward) or supinated (turning outward) foot. Neutral feet usually do not require orthotics, but can still benefit from extra shock absorption that insoles provide. Pronated and supinated feet usually benefit from orthotics and insoles, and can be helpful to treat flat arches, back and hip pain, plantar fasciitis, etc. Insoles can help those people create an efficient gait and help prevent further injuries as well as help the shoe feel more comfortable.
Also take into account the type of footwear you're wearing. If your shoes contain a removable insole or sockliner, you can insert a Superfeet insole, trimmed to fit, into your shoe for added comfort. If your shoe does not contain a removable insole, one of Superfeet's low-volume insoles can be used for this purpose.

Command & Conquer Legacy v1.1Apr 29, 2006 Full Version 11 comments
Changes from version 1.0 ------------------------ Added two new songs (Act on Instinct and No Mercy) Increased Recon Bike speed and rate of turn Increased...
Command & Conquer Legacy merges the original Command & Conquer and Red alert into one game for multiplayer. The five playable sides are the Global Defensive Initiative, Botherhood of Nod, Allies, Soviet, and the Renegades a new side made of various combinations of the other fours sides units.
Q: Why are you working on a Red alert mod 8 years after it is released?
A: Command & Conquer is my favorite game series and now that Westwood no longer exists it is up to the fans to continue the legacy. The mod itself actually started as me wanting to redo two of my older mods: Nod Reign and the GDI Conflict. So I combined both into this uber-mod.
Q: When will it be released?
A: Its available now.
Q. Why do the sides have units they did not have in the core games?
A. Some are due to balance, while others like Nod having the Shock Trooper are due to hard coding in Red alert. A note for you hardcore C&C fans: Nod is based on a cross between DOS Multiplay and TS, that is why they don't have the Rocket Launcher, besides they have enough units.
Q: What can be expected in the mod?
A: A homogeneous combination of Tiberian Dawn and Red alert.
Q: What changes are there other than new units?
A. For starters there are two new multiplayer maps, the AI is more difficult, tanks auto-crush infantry, infantry auto-scatter, and other small changes.
Q: Who is the fifth side?
A. They are the Renegades. They have various units from the other four sides. They are basically a filler side because RA has five countries.

If we learned anything from the Interwebs these days, kids can make adults do some pretty interesting things and the latest example of that is this clip starring the NBA Hoop Troop Kid Reporters. Watch as the duo of Ryan and Jaylah gets rookies Steven Adams, Michael Carter-Williams, Otto Porter, and Anthony Bennett to do some dancing: Also, I think I will take Anthony Bennett's love advice to heart.

We investigated the effects of three elevated atmospheric CO2 levels on a Populus deltoides plantation at Biosphere 2 Laboratory in Oracle Arizona. Stable isotopes of carbon have been used as tracers to separate the carbon present before the CO2 treatments started (old C), from that fixed after CO2 treatments began (new C). Tree growth at elevated [CO2] increased inputs to soil organic matter (SOM) by increasing the production of fine roots and accelerating the rate of root C turnover. However, soil carbon content decreased as [CO2] in the atmosphere increased and inputs of new C were not found in SOM. Consequently, the rates of soil respiration increased by 141% and 176% in the 800 and 1200 μL L−1 plantations, respectively, when compared with ambient [CO2] after 4 years of exposure. However, the increase in decomposition of old SOM (i.e. already present when CO2 treatments began) accounted for 72% and 69% of the increase in soil respiration seen under elevated [CO2]. This resulted in a net loss of soil C at a rate that was between 10 and 20 times faster at elevated [CO2] than at ambient conditions. The inability to retain new and old C in the soil may stem from the lack of stabilization of SOM, allowing for its rapid decomposition by soil heterotrophs.

iHerb Customer Reviews
Improved cat abcess
1 person found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1470793 on Jul 19, 2014
We noticed our cat had a closed abscess on its head one evening, and I had this at home, so I decided to try it to see if it would help overnight before taking the cat to the vet the next morning. We applied it to the cat internally and directly onto the abscess. The next morning, it had opened up and the swelling was already reduced. We kept applying this twice a day for the next few days and it is now healing very well indeed. I was really impressed, and so much cheaper that taking her to the vet to getting it drained whilst under an anesthetic.

Two Rockets Honored With Academic All-MAC Awards
TOLEDO, OH - Senior Ben Brocker was named to the 2014 Men's Tennis Academic All- Mid-American Conference Team, the league office announced on Tuesday.
Sophomore Ryan Jorgensen was also named to the honorable mention conference all-academic team.
"We all kept saying that we're going to miss Benny in our program, but I don't think his loss will hit us until we start hitting the hard times next year," head coach Al Wermer said. "He set an incredible example of focus and positivity for our guys, both on and off the court. It's great to see Ryan and Ben recognized by the MAC for their academic success."
Brocker, a native of Poland, OH, finished his collegiate career with a 3.90 cumulative GPA in chemistry and went 4-7 in his final year of competition with the Midnight Blue & Gold, including a three-set victory in No. 6 singles at Ball State which helped secured a Toledo victory over the eventual MAC Champion Cardinals. He also recorded two wins in doubles play.
Jorgensen went 5-11 on the year with a 1-1 record in MAC play, with four more wins coming in doubles. The Toledo native earned an impressive victory against MAC runner-up Buffalo in No. 4 singles on Sunday, March 23.

Anthony Rizzo memo to Jon Lester: Cubs "exciting team"
Cubs All-Star Anthony Rizzo hasn't talked to old Red Sox organizational mate Jon Lester this off-season – at least yet. But if he gets the chance to chat with the Cubs' top free agent target, he won't be at a loss for talking points. "The best sales pitch I have is that we're a

TORONTO – Injured first baseman Anthony Rizzo took another step Tuesday toward a return to the lineup from back stiffness – by the end of this two-city road trip if he has his way.
