|Jerry Orr, director of Charlotte Douglas International Airport
Airport Chief Says TSA Must Go
TheStreet) -- As airlines, airports and the Transportation Security Administration ramp up for one of the year's busiest travel periods -- and with attention focused on controversial new pat-down procedures -- the director of Charlotte Douglas International Airport says he could provide airport security more efficiently than the TSA can. Aviation Director Jerry Orr said the federal government should focus on "looking for potential perpetrators" rather than inspecting everybody, sometimes intrusively. People must realize that "No matter you much you spend, you cannot 100% guarantee security," so it is worth considering that at some level security may be too intrusive, or too slow, or too expensive to provide, he said.On the cost side, Orr noted, the number of workers employed by the TSA in Charlotte has tripled from around 150 non-TSA security workers at the time of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, yet security is no better.CHARLOTTE (
In the end, ultimate responsibility for security may fall on airline passengers, just as it did on
(UAL) Flight 93 on Sept. 11 and on subsequent flights involving the "shoe bomber," apprehended by passengers and crew members on a transatlantic flight on Dec. 22, 2001, and the "underwear bomber," apprehended by passengers and crew members at the conclusion of a transatlantic flight on Dec. 25, 2009.
While terrorists seem to prefer holiday season transatlantic flights, Orr noted that the TSA must vary its routines. "True security is me knowing what I'm doing and you not knowing," he said.
Orr is respected in aviation as the longtime director of Charlotte/Douglas, the country's 11th busiest airport in terms of 2009 passenger totals and the largest and most profitable hub for
US Airways.
(LCC). He is frequently cited as one of the country's leading airline executives, partially because Charlotte/Douglas is among the lowest-cost airports for airlines and partly due to its efficient operation, enabled by relationships between its three principal players: US Airways, TSA and Orr himself.
Orr objects to multiple facets of the TSA operation. Cost is a primary one. Another is that the TSA "is always addressing yesterday's threat." If a terrorist blew up an airplane with explosives hidden in an earphone, "then every time somebody came through with earphones, we would inspect them," Orr said.
Orr also questions the policy, now being altered, to push
airline crews through security.
"If a pilot is willing to go down with an airplane, how can you stop him?" Orr asked. Early in the decade, a private firm provided an iris-recognition technology system for some airport workers at Charlotte/Douglas. Orr said the system worked, but the TSA apparently did not display sufficient interest to retain the involvement of
EyeTicket, the system's private developer.

Raytheon and Diana
Radar was first developed in Britain, but American engineers experimented with radar before the U.S. entered the war. MIT, the top technical university in the country, opened the Radiation Laboratory to research applications for radar early in the 1940's. Back in England, the British military was using radar to catch Nazi planes sneaking across the channel, and they needed help building radio tubes that generated the strong microwave signals. MIT suggested that the British meet with Percy Spencer from Raytheon, a company founded by an MIT professor, Vannever Bush. Raytheon agreed to supply the radar tubes to Britain and Raytheon began a long history in the defense industry.
Engineers at Raytheon, including Vannevar Bush, worked hard developing radar systems for the war effort. Processing the complex radar signals from radar proved very difficult, taking thousands of calculations. Bush worked on the difficult mathematical problem of radar antenna profiles and designed an analog computer to assist with the calculations. However, digital computers would prove more effective.
Another field of research sparked by radar began with an experiment code-named Project Diana conducted right after the war in 1947 by the U.S. Army Signal Corp. Army technicians bounced radar signals off the moon and detected the reflected signal a few seconds later (Diana was the Roman goddess of the Moon). It was the first communication using a satellite, and it demonstrated the practicality of satellite communications.
However, the U.S. wasn't the first one to get an artificial satellite in orbit. That prize went to the Russians ten years later.

Free Stanley Cup Picks: Boston Bruins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Game 2 Predictions
- Updated: May 2, 2011
Last season, the Boston Bruins jumped out to a 3-0 series lead against the Philadelphia Flyers in the playoffs, only to go on and lose the series when push really came to shove. The B's are already a third of the way to repeat that 3-0 series lead, and they'll hope to take another step in the right direction towards getting some revenge when they face the boys from the City of Brotherly Love at Wells Fargo Arena for Game 2 on Monday night.
We still probably haven't seen the best out of Tim Thomas yet in these playoffs, and Game 1 against the Flyers was no exception. He allowed three goals on 34 shots faced, and though he was more than good enough to get the 'W', he has to know that in normal situations in the postseason, that wouldn't have been good enough to win. It's a good thing though, that the offense was able to step up and light and lamp over and over… and over…… and over again. David Krejci, a man who had been kept absolutely silent over the course of the first round of the playoffs came to life in Game 1 against the Flyers, accounting for four shots on goal to go with two goals and two assists. Brad Marchand, who only had one goal in the whole seven game series against the Montreal Canadiens, came up with two strikes in Game 1 of this series as well. Patrice Bergeron had three assists, while Dennis Seidenberg had two helpers. Nathan Horton came up with a goal and an assist.
And the goaltending carousel turns for the Flyers once again… It's absolutely amazing that this team remains anywhere near good enough to win it all in spite of the fact that it really just doesn't have any goaltending whatsoever. For the second time in these playoffs, Brian Boucher has been run out of a game without completing it, though Head Coach Peter Laviolette gave him more of a leash in Game 1 of this series than we are used to seeing. Boucher allowed five goals on just 23 shots in his ugliest start of the playoffs. In came Sergei Bobrovsky, a man which hasn't even been on the roster since getting pulled in favor of Boucher in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals against the Buffalo Sabres. Goodness knows whether we'll see either of these two on Monday night, but we do know one thing… Laviolette isn't afraid to switch goalies mid-game, as he has now done so in half of the contests in the postseason to date. The good news is that the offense just continues to do its thing. Daniel Briere had yet another goal, his seventh of the playoffs, and Claude Giroux helped out with two more helpers, giving him a league best nine for the postseason. The 23 year old Giroux now has two assists in four straight games.
Boston Bruins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Pick: Blah. We hate picking on a team that just has absolutely no goaltending in the playoffs, but we know that we are getting a fantastic price here on a solid Philly team to knock off Thomas and the B's. Take the Flyers -130 and hope that they can level this series before going back to Beantown.

In Maya 2011 Essential Training, George Maestri demonstrates the tools and feature set in Maya, as well as the skills necessary to model, texture, animate, and render projects with this deep and robust piece of 3D animation software from Autodesk. This course takes an in-depth tour of Maya's interface, including navigating and manipulating objects in 3D and customizing the workspace. The course also covers object creation and modeling basics, shading and texturing, surface mapping techniques, character rigging, and lastly, rendering and final output. Exercise files accompany the course.
When you rotate and scale anything in Maya, you have to rotate it and scale it around a specific point. So, for example, if you imagine an axle going through an object around which you rotate it, that axle has to be positioned in order for you to rotate the object around your desired point. So, let's take a look at, for example, these two spheres. If I select this blue sphere, and hit E, to get into Rotate mode, you can see that this is pretty much rotating around the center of the ball.
So, the ball is basically rolling. If I select the red ball, notice how the pivot point is actually at the bottom of the ball. So, actually, I'm rotating around the bottom. Notice how this gives a very different effect than this. Now, the same actually goes for scaling. If I hit R to get into Scale mode, you can see that when I scale this, this is scaling around the center. If I scale this, this is scaling up from the bottom.
So, this is all dependent upon where that pivot point is. Now, I'm going to go ahead and just hit Delete and delete out these spheres. Let's go ahead and focus in on this office chair. Now, I'm going to go ahead and select it and hit W to get into Move mode, so we can kind of see where this pivot point is. Now if you notice here, by default, a lot of times when you build something, or you bring an object in that you've imported, a lot of times, the pivot point will not be in the right place.
So, for example, with his chair, if I went to rotate the chair, I could actually swivel it, and it would look fine. But if I go to tilt the chair back, you notice how, well, it's tilting around the middle. It's not tilting around where it really should be, which is where that chair is attached to the base. So, in order to change that, I need to change where the pivot point is. I can do this by hitting a keystroke on the keyboard. Now, this is one of the few places where the Mac and PC differences show up.
On the PC keyboard, you're going to hit the Insert key. Notice when you hit the Insert key, these lines show up. That tells me I'm in Move Pivot mode. Now, on the Macintosh keyboard, you are going to hit the Home key. Now, once you've hit that key, these little lines will show up. Now I can just grab the lines. It's pretty much like the Move tool. I can just move that pivot to exactly where I need it in order for that chair to pivot properly.
Once I've done that, all I have to do to jump out of it is go into Move or Rotate mode. So I'm going to hit E to go into Rotate mode. Now you can see, this chair is tilting along its axis. Now, there is one other way to change the pivot point, and that's by centering the pivot. Now, for example, if I have this chair selected, I can go under the Modify menu, and you'll have an option here called Center Pivot. Now, a lot of times, you'll have an object where the pivot will be in some strange place, and you just want to snap it to a point where you can actually work with this.
So a lot of times, you'll just hit Center Pivot, and it will go into the place where you want it. Then if you hit Insert, or Home on the Mac, you can then adjust it to where you want. So sometimes, that's going to be the process. If you can't find the pivot, you center it, and then you move it by hitting Insert or Home. So, as you can see, positioning the pivot is very important in whatever you do in Maya. Now, if you're going to make any sort of mechanical assembly or animating any object, you want to make sure that it's rotating around the proper center.
By moving the pivot to the proper place, everything will work out fine.

GTFO: A Film About Women In Gaming Is Going Ahead
A useful warning for angry men: If you don't like posts about issues related to women and gaming, don't read this post, and maybe scroll to one of the 17,000 other articles on the site! Hope this helps. (Boy would you look silly if you commented about it now.)
The consequences of last year's #1reasonwhy Twitter outpouring have been enormously productive. It feels as though a dam has been broken, and the negative treatment of women who game has a voice. After this year's inspiring GDC panel, there's a sense that it's a voice that isn't going to shut up until something changes. Another part of that voice is a film by Shannon Sun-Higginson called GTFO: A Film About Women In Gaming, and it's cleared its Kickstarter funding goals.

iShares MSCI Japan Monthly CHF Hedged is an exchange traded fund (ETF) that aims to track the performance of the MSCI Japan 100% Hedged to CHF Net TR Index as closely as possible.
The ETF invests in physical index securities and builds in currency hedging with the aim of reducing the impact of exchange rate fluctuations between the base currency of the Fund and the currency of the constituent securities in the Index. The MSCI Japan 100% Hedged to CHF Net TR Index targets free-float market capitalisation coverage of 85% of leading equity securities listed in Japan as identified by the index provider. Free-float means that only shares available to international investors, rather than all of a company's issued shares, are used to calculate the index. The index also incorporates a monthly hedge, using a one month forward foreign-exchange contract, to reduce exposure to the impact of currency fluctuations between Swiss Francs and Japanese Yen.

F1 2002 problems with driver 40.41
I'm having some problems with the official NVidia 40.41 driver. When I trie to change the resolution for the game F1 2002 and turn FSAA (2x) on, my systeem reboots. I even tried the NVidia 40.71 Beta drivers, but I still have the same problem.
Pentium III 866 MHz
Asus P3V4X BIOS 1006 Beta 3
Gainward Geforce 4 Powerpack Ultra 650 TV (64 MB GF4 Ti4200)
Windows XP SP1 UK
The 40.41 drivers have even more problems than the 40.71's. There was another set released (40.52) between those two and you can download it from www.warp2search.net so try that. If not, just about everyone who has had problems with these sets has gone back to the official 30.82's with success.
1 Attachment(s)
Its a shame your havin problem with the 40.71's and F12002 becaue they run great here.
I know I have problems with FSAA if I try to enble it in the 3dsetup on F12002, bit if I enable it (force it on) with RivaTuner works a treat.
This is with a GF4 Ti4600.
I have been playing F1 2002 with the 40.41 dets since they were released and have had no probs at all with that game, or any others. I am using the 40.52's now and still no probs (so far). Getting Ready to try the 40.71's. I'm not sure why you (and others) are having so many probs with these drivers. Maybe I'm lucky. I always just update the drivers from the the device manager window under system properties. I have never uninstalled the older detanator drivers before installing the new one since I put XP on my system, it is not necessary on XP. Those that do uninstall the old ones first seem to have alot more problems (from my readings any way) with the new releases. How did you update yours?
generally when updating between same series detonators, you don't need to uninstall drivers. however a jump from say 30.82 to 40.41, it would be better to uninstall 30.82, because it uses driver references that 40.41 doesn't and are unneeded.
I did jump from 30.82 to 40.41 with out uninstalling the old ones. I just click the update driver button in the device manager window and told it where to go. Worked fine.
There are no "official" nvidia 40.anything drivers. They are all beta. The only difference is that you can get the beta copy from nvidia's site and not from some other site hosting "leaked" betas...

In his first book of stories since The Bridegroom was published in 2000 ("Finely wrought . . . Every story here is cut like a stone."—Chicago Sun-Times), National Book Award–winning Ha Jin gives us a collection that delves into the experience of Chinese immigrants in America.
With the same profound attention to detail that is a hallmark of his previous acclaimed works of fiction, Ha Jin depicts here the full spectrum of immigrant life and the daily struggles—some minute, some grand—faced by these intriguing individuals.
A lonely composer takes comfort in the antics of his girlfriend's parakeet; young children decide to change their names so that they might sound more "American," unaware of how deeply this will hurt their grandparents; a Chinese professor of English attempts to defect with the help of a reluctant former student. All of Ha Jin's characters struggle in situations that stir within them a desire to remain attached to be loyal to their homeland and its traditions as they explore and avail themselves of the freedom that life in a new country offers.
In these stark, deeply moving, acutely insightful, and often strikingly humorous stories, we are reminded once again of the storytelling prowess of this superb writer.
HA JIN left his native China in 1985 to attend Brandeis University. He is the author of five novels, three story collections, and three books of poetry. He has received the National Book Award, two PEN/Faulkner Awards, the PEN/Hemingway Award, the Asian American Literary Award, and the Flannery O'Connor Award for Short Fiction. Ha Jin lives in the Boston area and is a professor of English at Boston University.
Guest host Jacki Lyden speaks with author Ha Jin, who writes about the Chinese experience in his new book of short stories A Good Fall. Ha Jin sets his stories in Flushing, New York. The area is home to one of New York's largest Chinese immigrant communities. More at NPR.org

The EC presented a proposal for the creation of a European Asylum Support Office. Its objective is to accompany EU legal harmonisation with effective practical cooperation in view of improving convergence in asylum decisions by Member States. This European Asylum Support Office will assist national administrations in order to improve the quality and convergence of their decisions. It will draw up a common training programme and exchange best practices. It will give its support to the Member States most affected by refugee flows by making group of experts available to them, especially specialised interpreters. Jacques Barrot, Vice-President of the EC in charge of Justice, Freedom and Security, explained the situation is very different from one member state to another. He added that the European Commission wants to put an end to this situation by improving solidarity. The aim is to ensure that asylum seekers get a tailored made response to their request with a maximum of guarantees that it has been studied in the most objective possible way. Barrot also said that the Commission doesn't want to see a reduction in the percentage of the request acceptance in any country. The goal is to better share out asylum seekers and at the same time ensure that whatever country they turn to, they are treated more or less in the same way.

Random Xorg restarts with GeForce GTS 250
1 Attachment(s)
Every once in a while, the X server restarts on me. Normally, I am not at the system when this happens, but today I was. The screen blacked out, I heard the fan on the graphics card increase its RPM and then decrease it and then I was at the KDM screen. The only evidence of the issue that I can find in the logs is an empty backtrace and a line in dmesg:
[328896.176321] NVRM: Xid (0000:01:00): 6, PE0001

Highlights from impact study for Kingsville's university
Impact of starting a mechanical engineering program at A&M-CC on A&M-K's mechanical engineering program
137 undergraduate students enrolled in A&M-K's M.E. program
45 of these M.E. students come from Nueces County
13 of these M.E. students come from counties just north of Nueces County
*If all of these students went to A&M-CC because of proximity instead of A&M-K, there would be a 42.3 percent reduction of A&M-K's M.E. program, or a loss of 58 students.
Mechanical engineering faculty and accreditation impact
Nine faculty are devoted to the mechanical engineering department. The department had 47 master's degree students. Three faculty members are needed for the graduate program, leaving six faculty for the undergraduate program. Four faculty are the minimum needed for certification from the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. Economically, it is difficult to justify four faculty for 70 to 80 undergraduate students.
Economic Impact
The economic loss from losing 58 M.E. students is:
$467,016/year in revenue from state support, tuition and fees
$840,629/year in income to the Kingsville area
Supply of engineering students for A&M-K and A&M-CC
In 2006, 142 students from Nueces, San Patricio, Aransas, Jim Wells, Live Oak and Kleberg counties went into engineering programs in Texas. One-hundred-fifteen of these students went to engineering programs at A&M-K, leaving 27 engineering students who went elsewhere. These figures indicate there is little need for an engineering school at A&M-CC.
Demand for Mechanical Engineers
2004 2014 % Increase
United States 225,860 250,980 11%
Texas 16,950 20,600 21.5%
Coastal Bend 250 350 40%
A&M-K Bachelor of Science Graduates in Mechanical Engineering
2001 2002 2003 2004 2005
12 16 9 11 27
About half of A&M-K's graduates go to work in the Coastal Bend area.

we have taken many tours in Rome during our June 2015 trip. This was by far the best. Very comprehensive of ancient Rome. Definitely grateful we didnt have to walk this tour and got to bypass the hoards of summer tourists! If we come back, we will do this again. Ask for Sandro.
Tricia Rowsey
Best tour i could imagine! Great way to see so much of Rome in three hours. Very fun! Very thorough! Gorgeous. Martina was wonderful!
Jamie Paige Crawford
Really fun. Great way to see imperial Rome. Loved seeing the views of city as well. Giuliana was a fantastic guide. Thank you from Ellen and Poppy!!
Ellen & Poppy
Renato gave us one of the best tours thus far! Tons of information to include recommendations for places to see and eat! Thank you for the tour!

Marti was an excellent tour guide. Very informative and great fun. If you need to find your way round do this at the very start of your holiday. A proper interesting and funny guide and not a pre recorded tape! You can ask her questions and she is very knowledgeable. The segways are fantastic fun. Super value for money. You woud pay twice this in UK just to use the segways for 1 hour without a tour guide. Great fun. Would do it again tomorrow !!! Thank you.

Museum expansion is a stunning work of art
There's a world-class building under construction on the bayfront, designed by a world-renowned architect. It's a piece of artwork designed to exhibit art. And it's being married to another architectural artwork, itself designed by another first-class architectural artist.
When it's all completed, Corpus Christi will have itself an art museum complex of the first rank. Corpus Christi will be able to say what no other city can say, that its principal public art museum, the Art Museum of South Texas, was designed by two of the world's foremost names in architecture.
"World-class" and "first rank" are terms not often associated with Corpus Christi. That's our own fault. We're like those fictional residents of Garrison Keillor's Lake Wobegon, who belittle any attempt to break out of conformity and mediocrity with the question, "Who do you think you are?" Except in Corpus Christi's case, it's more like, "Good enough for us."
We held on to Memorial Coliseum as the city's principal venue long after its time had passed. Good enough for us. Now that we have the American Bank Center, we are probably wondering why it took us so long. I still marvel at the existence of the Congressman Solomon P. Ortiz International Center at the Port of Corpus Christi. I marvel because it is such a striking piece of architectural work. And I marvel because it wasn't too long ago that the port officials couldn't think beyond handling oil and cotton shipments. Good enough for us. It took a real break from the past just to commission such a building.
We might be readying ourselves to open the doors to a sixth high school in the Corpus Christi Independent School District if the "good enough for us" syndrome hadn't sunk that bond issue two years ago. Why not just redraw the attendance boundary lines? What's wrong with the present buildings? If it was good enough for us when we went to high school (40 years ago!), it's good enough now. Who do we think we are?
Well, we're good enough, apparently, for Ricardo Legorreta to do his work here. This is the same Mexican architect who designed the Museum of Contemporary Art in Monterrey, the IBM Offices in Mexico City, the San Antonio Library, the Camino Real Hotel in Mexico City, a man whose work won him the coveted Gold Medal of the American Institute of Architects, the Oscar for the profession.
His building, now in the last months of construction, contains some of the most characteristic elements of a Legorreta structure - the use of light, color and creative space by the placing of walls. The task was all the more demanding to do it in conjunction with the original building designed by the architectural icon, the late Philip Johnson.
The Legorreta expansion will almost double the size of the museum, adding 12,000 square feet of exhibit space, enabling the museum to bring out the 2,000 pieces of artwork now in storage. And it will give the museum a new entrance, the details of which are still being worked out.
Even during a walk-through while the building is under construction, it is impressive. A cafe offers a stunning view of the ship channel and Texas State Aquarium across the way. Pyramids and the pyramid shape - Legorreta's tribute to the Hispanic heritage of the area - is played out on the roof; the pyramids there will be covered with copper. The same pyramid shape is recessed into ceilings, the metal skeletons, which are now uncovered, displaying the intricate craftsmanship necessary.
One of the craftsmen working on the building, Donald Lambert, says it took him and fellow worker Victor Estrada more than two days to construct a radial ceiling designed into one room because of the jigsaw puzzle of curved metalwork needed. And that was just for the men's room.
Hurricane weather delayed the work, but the building is now on schedule for completion in October. A renovation of the original building is also planned. Then the building, all built with donations, will be handed over to the City of Corpus Christi for the public's enjoyment. A first-class piece of work. That's the only level of competence that ought to be good enough for us.

Briley: Wedding trip full of wine stops
My wife Nancy and I headed north two weeks ago for the wedding of my oldest daughter, Jessica.
Our mission was to bring up all the centerpieces, candles, miscellaneous wedding stuff, and of course, seven cases of wine. This unlikely match of our daughter the scientist and my new son-in-law, Nick Woodward, lead singer-guitarist of the metal band Darkest Grace, was taking place in Issaquah, Wash.
Of course, no trip of ours would be complete unless wine stops were involved. The timing of the wedding was great, as our first stop was at our favorite wine festival, Wine in the Pines, in Pine Mountain Village, where two of our own outstanding wineries, Cantara Cellars and Rancho Ventavo Cellars, were pouring. This first stop was a preview what was ahead. On each stop we had to unload four cartloads of wedding "stuff."
After a one-night stay in Redding, we continued on to McMinnville, in the heart of Oregon wine country, where we picked up two bottles of Argyle Black Brut sparkling wine for the wedding toast. On our way out of town, we made sure to stop at a favorite pinot noir producer, J.K. Carriere Wines.
After finally getting to Washington and checking off our to-do lists, the time had come for the rehearsal dinner, which the groom's family had arranged to be at you guessed it, a winery. Patterson Cellars is in the Woodinville wine area of Washington. I recommend a visit there.
Right before the wedding, I instructed the bartenders on how each of the wines was to be served. I had purchased a case of 1996 Burgess Cellars cabernet sauvignon from http://www.winestilsoldout.com/, a great resource for buying wines at a reasonable price. I had these bottles in the back and they were only to be served by request. My secret was soon out and the case was gone in a very short time. However, no one complained about the other wine, especially my daughter. She learned a lesson we have all probably learned the next morning.
After the wedding we had a two-night stay in Victoria, Canada. I had read good things about British Columbia wines and I was anxious to try them. We were very impressed with the wines, surprisingly all dry. They do not export, so a visit is required to try them.
On our way home, we made a stop at the Lodi Wine and Visitors Center. If you do not have time to visit the wineries in this area this is a great place to go. Not only do they do tastings, they sell most of the local Lodi wines.
Lastly, congratulations to the new Woodward couple and I hope they enjoy our wedding gift: bottles of wine for their first, fifth, 10th, 25th, and 50th wedding anniversaries.

A good pregnancy yogurt
OK, so I'm not sure a post about yogurt has a lot to do with parenting, but I can tell you that when I was pregnant with the twins, my doctor tried to get me to eat a lot of it. Which was unfortunate, because I didn't really like yogurt, and there's nothing worse than […] [Read More]

Parents weaker than in 1950?
Take a look at this interesting column by a family psychologist. In it, he says that the tough parenting style of the 1950s is all but lost, and that today's parents are less apt to set rules or consequences for their kids and stand by them. I have a bit of a problem with the […] [Read More]
Cure for peanut allergies?
Here's an interesting study from Europe, in which a very small sample of children were apparently "cured" of their peanut allergies. It will be interesting to see if this research goes anywhere. I was pretty surprised by this statistic from the story: One in 50 young people in the United Kingdom are affected by peanut […] [Read More]

THURSDAY, July 5 (HealthDay News) -- A century after the tragic British Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole, new research shows that Robert Falcon Scott and his men died of starvation.
Though they were eating rations of biscuits, pemmican (dried meat and fat paste), butter, sugar, chocolate, cereals, raisin and some pony meat, the daily allotment did not contain enough calories to keep them alive given the extreme amount of physical exertion.
Using modern knowledge of nutrition and the body's response to extreme temperatures and high altitudes, Dr. Lewis Halsey, an environmental physiologist at the University of Roehampton, in London, and Dr. Mike Stroud, a physician and polar explorer, reexamined Scott's voyage. They determined that Scott and his crew did not consume enough calories to fuel their activities.
The study was presented July 1 at the Society for Experimental Biology meeting in Salzburg, Austria.
"There has been much speculation about what Scott died of. Almost certainly his death was due to chronic and extreme emaciation," said Halsey in a society news release.
The Terra Nova Expedition set out in 1910 with the goal of being the first to reach the South Pole. They reached their destination in 1912, only to find that they had been beaten to the pole by a Norwegian team. The Terra Nova team died on their way home.
The men consumed about 4,400 calories a day, but probably expended closer 7,000 calories daily as they hauled supplies on sledges across the ice and snow, researchers said. This daily activity level is higher than most Olympic athletes in training.
The calorie mix was also insufficient, with their ration containing too little fat, researchers said. Their daily diet contained 24 percent fat and 29 percent protein. To fulfill their daily requirements, the men would have had to consume closer to 57 percent fat and 8 percent protein, researchers said.
