From Progteam
Our Goal as Progteameans is to sort every problem (ever) into one or more of several different categories. Our currently listed categories include:
- String
- Sorting
- Arithmetic and Algebra
- Combinatorics
- Number Theory
- Backtracking
- Graph
- Dynamic Programming
- Grid
- Geometry
- Large Input
- Dunno
- Hard
- Recursive
The way we categorize problems is by using the built-in MediaWiki categories. For instance, one category is "sorting." If we want to mark a problem as being sorting related, we include at the bottom of the page:
Note, case DOES matter, and we use standard title case for all categories. Feel free to tag a problem with as many categories as you like.
After you've sorted a problem, give yourself credit! Within the {{problem}} template included on each problem page, there is an attribute called "sorter." When you categorize this problem, put your username in the attribute. For instance, the problem template should look like this:
{{problem |name=Freckles |number=2560 |difficulty |sorter=hjfreyer |source=Waterloo local 2000.09.23 }}
All the problems are numbered, so each person should take a century of problems. Here's a current list:
- 1500-1599: Hunter
- Prime Numbers: Melanie and Eric
- 1000-1099: Zach
- 1400-1499: Rob and Paul

We're big fans of food prepared using the time-tested broiling method. Fortunately, equipment specializing in broiling has come a long way, but your commercial cooking essentials can't do what they do best if the broiler parts and pieces stop working at 100%. Whether that means repairing a component or replacing a part, it's your job to get that equipment back up and running. You can do so with ease when you've equipped your kitchen kit with a handful of must-have broiler parts, and we've got just the ones you're looking for!

The IoT market is on track to hit $7.1 trillion in 2020. The reality is that only a handful of companies are ready for this massive demand. There are a lot of barriers, paint points, traps, and hidden roadblocks. How can we deal with these issues and challenges? The paradigm has changed. Old-style ad-hoc trial-and-error ways will certainly lead you to the dead end. What is mandatory is an overarching and adaptive approach to effectively handle the rapid changes and exponential growth.

Mobile messaging has been a popular communication channel for more than 20 years. Finnish engineer Matti Makkonen invented the idea for SMS (Short Message Service) in 1984, making his vision a reality on December 3, 1992 by sending the first message ("Happy Christmas") from a PC to a cell phone. Since then, the technology has evolved immensely, from both a technology standpoint, and in our everyday uses for it. Originally used for person-to-person (P2P) communication, i.e., Sally sends a text message to Betty – mobile messaging now offers tremendous value to businesses for customer and empl...

Can call centers hang up the phones for good? Intuitive Solutions did. WebRTC enabled this contact center provider to eliminate antiquated telephony and desktop phone infrastructure with a pure web-based solution, allowing them to expand beyond brick-and-mortar confines to a home-based agent model. It also ensured scalability and better service for customers, including MUY! Companies, one of the country's largest franchise restaurant companies with 232 Pizza Hut locations. This is one example of WebRTC adoption today, but the potential is limitless when powered by IoT.

You have your devices and your data, but what about the rest of your Internet of Things story? Two popular classes of technologies that nicely handle the Big Data analytics for Internet of Things are Apache Hadoop and NoSQL. Hadoop is designed for parallelizing analytical work across many servers and is ideal for the massive data volumes you create with IoT devices. NoSQL databases such as Apache HBase are ideal for storing and retrieving IoT data as "time series data."

ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY (WUSA) -- Four died when two cars collided head-on, the Anne Arundel County Police spokesperson said.
Police say the accident happened just after 1:30 p.m. on Sunday on Marley Neck Blvd. and Freeman Shores Road in the Glen Burnie area.
Police say one car was traveling northbound on Marley Neck Boulevard and attempted to pass traffic across a double yellow line. The car then hit another vehicle, which was traveling in a southbound lane, head-on. The second vehicle overturned and was pushed backwards about 75 feet before coming to rest on the east side of the roadway. The first car went another 100 feet and broke apart before stopping in the southbound lane. That car's engine landed in a wooded area 60 feet west of the roadway. The passenger was ejected when the car broke apart, say authorities.
People who died in the crash, were 30-year-old Joseph Allen Oliver Jr. of Glen Burnie, Md., 18-year-old Crystal Jean Benton of Laurel, Md. and 21-year-old Brittney Marie Ziegler of Pasadena, Md. and Lilly Renee Gross.
Oliver was driving the first car. Ziegler was driving the second car.
Police say the first car's excessive speed may be a big factor in the accident but they are still investigating the crash.

KJ- Yes it is all about meeting some of the members and sharing ideas.Chad-Glad you can make it. Just did 5 days on the SHT with Mark Reis. I forgot about you and should have contacted you before hand. My Bad! I will post a steak count for the Saturday PM meal on Wed Oct 24th with names. That way any additions or subtractions can be made on the 25th. We will probably start cooking the meal around 4 PM.

I will not be able to make it out to the GGG this year, but look forward to getting to meet some of you next year. Sounds like it will be a great time. Hope everyone has a blast.KJ
As of now I am bringing steaks for: Josh, Mark, Doug, Me, Jim, Chad, Mary R(+1). By my Minnesota math that is 8. I will need a final count by Thursday noon the 25th. We will plan on grilling the steaks Saturday PM. Dave
Edited by jpovs on 02/02/2015 04:30:40 MST.
My vacation time got approved so I'm definitely in. I've got most of my gear ready to go and am looking forward to seeing you all. Is there anything that I should bring food or cookware related? I'd hate to get all the ways up there and not have tongs to turn over the steaks. See you all this weekend.
This deleting is getting old.
Hey, I wanna thank Mark for checking up on me and inviting me to the GGGG. Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it. I miss BPL... :(
The forecast for this weekend is clear with high's in the low to mid 40's and nighttime temps approaching 26 degrees. Do not bring your 30 degree bags! We will grill the steaks Saturday PM so everyone can join in. If I missed your name in the earlier post let me know. We can also do an egg bake Saturday morn if anyone is interested. I will have my BWCA cook kit along so we can feed 8 or so. Let me know if anyone is interested. This might also be a good time to bring along any gear you want to swap or sell.
I have to back out of this gathering. My freelance working is taking off and I'm up to my eyeballs in clients. Sorry folks, next year.
Edited by jpovs on 02/02/2015 04:31:12 MST.
OK, Josh now your just rubbing it in since I can't come! You're a bad man.
Sorry Chad. I wish you could make it. I was hoping to meet some more SHT people. Dont worry there will be photos with smell vision.
Can anyone eat Chad's steak or should I leave it home? Josh - I will be there probably by 4 PM Friday.
Edited by dpnoll on 10/24/2012 15:20:50 MDT.
Just confirming that I'll be there with my husband. We'll be there Friday night around 7pm and leave sometime Saturday evening.I will definitely be bringing some choice Wisconsin beer to share. Let me know if there is any other group food/supplies I should bring.
Edited by pietimer on 10/24/2012 18:20:44 MDT.
Mary,Great that you guys can still make it. I will plan on steaks for 7 unless someone else says otherwise. Can you smell them Chad?
Wish I could make it but once again too far for me (even farther than last time). If anyone arranges one closer to IN, let me know.
I smell nothing David. You too are a bad man.Speaking of bad men you guys have to come up on the North Shore for a backpacking trip soon! Heck we can even do a nice winter trip! It will be fun and then I can smell stuff. Wait that sounded bad. Oh well.
Chad,You're right. That sounded bad. Here is a link to the trip Mark and I did on the SHT earlier this fall. http://www.flickr.com/photos/d1948n/sets/72157631691988454/I do get up to Duluth on business quite often and will be up sometime mid November. I'll drop you a note when I know for sure and maybe we can get together for a beer and burger. I might be interested in snowshoeing or cc skiing but probably not winter camping.

The number of library visits from January to August is 79,074, up from 73,820 during the same period last year. However, visits year on year have dropped from 9,915 in August 2012 to 8,725 this August.
Visits are steady, Ms. Dunne-Thayer said.
She said circulation dropped from 69,394 from January to August 2012, to 67,927 from January to August this year. Again, the library saw a decrease year on year, from 9,125 in August 2012 to 7,318 this August.
Among the decreases the library is seeing is in adult fiction, where circulation dropped from 3,303 in August 2012 to 2,706 this August. Adult nonfiction also dropped, from 694 in August 2012 to 538 this August.
There are not as many books as we would like to have in our collection, Ms. Dunne-Thayer said.
The juvenile area also has seen a decline, with juvenile fiction circulation declining from 1,745 in August 2012 to 1,318 this August, and juvenile nonfiction dropping from 212 in August 2012 to 155 this August.
Computer users likewise dropped, from 1,730 in August 2012 to 1,484 last month.
This years circulation numbers have bounced up and down, with 9,397 in January; 7,694 in February; 9,181 in March; 9,232 in April; 8,954 in May; 7,894 in June, 8,257 in July and 7,318 in August.
Library visits followed the same trend, with 10,090 in January; 11,450 in February, 9,524 in March; 11,023 in April; 11,013 in May; 8,125 in June, 9,124 in July and 8,725 in August.
On the flip side, e-book circulation rose from 69 in August 2012 to 178 last month, but thats an area where board members had decided not to focus too much of their attention.
Now, Ms. Dunne-Thayer said, perhaps they should concentrate on that area.
The one bright spot is e-books. Perhaps we need to reconsider it and steer the library toward online books and magazines. Potsdam recently started e-magazines. I would like to see how that is doing. I think its something we can consider, she said.
She told board members she would like to put together a brochure that explains e-books and see whether patrons have any favorite authors they would like to see in the librarys collection.
Its a trend I feel we need to do something about. We have to meet the needs of the community. Thats our purpose, she said.

By C.J. MCMANUSSun Advocate reporter
On May 1, Price Mayor Joe Piccolo helped Four Corners Behavioral Health and New Heights Clubhouse kick off Mental Health Awareness Month.
The local event started at the Price Peace Gardens with opening remarks by Piccolo and Four Corners administrator Jan Bodily.
The mayor and administrator then led the group of participants on a walk to Washington Park, where a presentation was given by John Mitchell.
Mental illnesses are medical conditions that disrupt a person's thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others and daily functioning, according to Four Corners.
"Just as diabetes is a disorder of the pancreas, mental illnesses are biological brain disorders that can result in diminished capacity for coping with everyday life," said Bodily during her opening statement.
Bodily reported that more than $100 billion is spent every year in costs related to untreated mental illness, including major depression and bipolar disease.
The Four Corners administrator stressed that curbing the stigma associated with mental illness will only be accomplished though public awareness and knowledge of the affliction.
"Depression and other major mental illness is not a weak A person is not just going to snap out of it. Treatment is needed just as it is for any other disease," continued Bodily.
According to the National Mental Health Association, dealing with mental illness within the family can be difficult.
Practical interventions and access to quality care are critical issues.
Appropriate intervention services are essential to mitigate risk and enhance healthy relationships between parents and children.
Support services should help families by addressing individual characteristics of the parent and child, strengthening bonds, improving interactions, increasing social supports and expanding access to services.
The association reports that families in which a parent has a mental illness may need a range of intervention strategies and services to maintain a stable environment and ensure positive outcomes for children.
Comprehensive interventions for parents with mental illness include:
An assessment of parenting strengths, needs and goals.
Comprehensive case management.
Peer support.
Crisis and respite care.
Marital and family counseling
Child development and parenting skills training.
Benefits and public entitlement counseling.
In many cases, parents who have received a diagnosis of a mental illness may need assistance in clarifying family roles and setting realistic expectations for children.
"I am so proud to be able to kick off Mental Health Awareness Month here in Price because, when thoughts are provoked, actions follow," commented Piccolo.
"And action is what brings about effective change," concluded the Price mayor.
Service providers such as Four Corners and the Clubhouse can help set expectations and provide lasting treatment.
For additional information regarding mental illness, Carbon County residents may contact Four Corners Behavioral Health at 637-2358.

"From one climber to one who is not. No, this pack is not aimed at climbers."You clearly must be unable to pay 100% attention while reading. Click on the link in Miguel's post. Scroll to purpose. Read *very* carefully. Yes, right there it says climbing gear. I like the colour, and would welcome it if it stays. Orange is a good colour! Making a model for kids is also a very good move (also business wise), growing the future generations to become lightweight backpackers is the way to go.
This is not a climbers pack - I am referring to what you said, not any marketing spin that someone else wrote.
Did I hear this from BPL????? "Your "performance" on the trail will not be affected by the fact that you are carrying 1 or 2 extra pounds on your back!"GASP is BPL going to the dark side?!!!Okay in all seriousness I agree. Actually thats one reason I like BPL most people here are level headed. Sures its a fun challenge to shave ounces but carring 15 pounds instead of 14 pounds probably won't change much of anything.By the way I like the orange color.
OT: Must have misunderstood you then, David - sorry if it sounded harsh, it wasn't meant that way =)
Hi Hendrik - I did not mean, nor take any offence.Cheers.
I can't resist providing a link to a previous thread. About 1/2 way down there is a discussion with Sam and Mike of BPL regarding the comment made that a 37oz pack is too heavy for backpacking. All in good fun, of course:http://www.backpackinglight.com/cgi-bin/backpackinglight/forums/thread_display.html?forum_thread_id=22996&startat=20
Just finished reading the linked thread and I couldn't agree more with you David. Well put response regarding what is or isn't considered a "heavy" pack. Thanks for the link, good reading and input as usual.
So, is there going to be a thread titled 'Ryan Jordan has officially lost his mind' ? :>) I can't agree with him more of course.
"My only complaint, in the context of winter use, is that I see no way to carry skis."David,It looks like you could insert them in the side pockets and lash them together above the top of the pack. Possibly add a piece of lightweight bungee cord looped around the skis and attached to the frame on both sides where it is exposed at the shoulder strap attachments, if you needed a little extra security. Just a thought.
Good response by Dan McHale ; ).
Edited by jshann on 01/22/2010 18:09:43 MST.
"Good response by Dan McHale"That is almost a given. Even in heated discussions Dan comes across as calm, rational, and extremely knowledgable. Always enjoy his perspective.
Schizo runs deep in all of us I reckon.I'm also developing a Cuben pack so ... ha!
"That's it, I am selling my tarp."Yeah? How much? .......
Anytime a PHD uses "ha" as a comback it makes me smile.Well played Dr. Jordan ;0)I'm sorry, as much as I like to argue I just like to smile more.For a bunch of dirt dogs we all spend way to much time staring at a screen.Be well BPL'ersBill
Predictions:Those who get one will use it for UL, but will not throw away their SUL pack(s)There won't be any left in inventory for the 2010 Gamblers SaleChildren of the large-beaked bird will sing and dance around the fire
37 ounces IS too heavy for a pack - - when your aim is to teach people about the lower limits of ultralight backpacking over the course of a weekend. I believe the comments referred to from Mike C! and I were in relation with our teaching the WTS-WS1 courses in which we strived to teach students about absolute minimalism in their gear and practices. For those of us who have tested those limits and are comfortable reeling themselves back in to find their "sweet spot". Or for people who are going to be trekking five, six, seven, even nine days w/o resupply then a 37 ounce pack becomes necessary. And to comment on this pack's use for climbing - - yes, it would make a fine day-cragging pack. No it wouldn't suit itself well for use on a big wall.
Sam - the discussion around the 37oz pack was for 6 days in the Beartooth Mountains. Not a 2 day weekend. For 2-3 days I use a frameless pack. Not for 6 days with 12lbs of food and water. Doable? Yes. Comfortable? No.Is the belt removable on this pack for a climbing harness? Where can crampons be attached so that there is no damage to the pack body? Hopefully you can see my perspective now.
Reading the wide swings in opinions on this pack and what it should be used for I get the impression that no one really knows. More and more it seems like a pack looking for a reason to be, rather than filling in a specific need. At least SUL and frameless UL packs know exactly what they are and what they are intended for and for what weights. I also get the feeling that, as time goes on, the proselytizing about going at the lightest weights possible is gradually losing its luster and people are beginning to admit that going too light is very uncomfortable, perhaps even unsafe? I don't know... does this mean that what the traditionalists have criticized about the UL'ers might in fact have a bit of truth to it? This talk now, by the very people who helped to get all this so popular, seems very much at odds with all the early articles and discussions five or six years ago. I'm curious, how many of you out there have found yourselves retreating and returning to heavier weight articles? Is going UL going too far? I've read quite a number of times now of people speaking of "diminishing returns". For us more experienced UL'ers out there, do you find that to be true? What items have you allowed to gain back weight?
"This talk now, by the very people who helped to get all this so popular, seems very much at odds with all the early articles and discussions five or six years ago."I have been thinking about this. Thanks for 'saying' it.We should start a new thread in General Discussion about this. I always try to go UL, but it will depend on my environment. The Canadian Rockies can be unkind, whereas on Vancouver Island or in the Uintas Mountains in Utah in the summer I can get away with less 'back-up' in case something should go wrong.
I have found myself desiring to return to a slightly heavier pack. I first achieved a 10 lb base weight with a vapor trail pack. It was an extraordinarily comfortable pack. However, I had just caught the ul bug and wanted to try to lower my base weight even further. So, I sold the vapor trail and purchased a 1st generation jam2. The jam2 was a great value at $80 after an rei coupon. I trimmed it to under 20 oz.The jam2 was almost as comfortable as the vapor trail if I used a foam pad rolled as a virtual frame. Unfortunately I never sleep well on the the trail with a foam pad. After experimenting with foam pads, prolites, torsolites, and ba air cores I found that I sleep best with the thicker inflatable pads. Despite my best efforts to pack carefully I can't get the jam2 to carry quite as comfortably without a cylinder foam pad virtual frame. For the past six months I have been contemplating going back to the vapor trail. I have held off because I am hoping that the new bpl pack will carry as comfortably as the vapor trail and be a little more feature friendly.I know a lot of people here are willing to carry extra weight to get a better nights sleep and for me that extends beyond just the type of pad to the type of pack as well.

ASTC offers a number of advantages over existing texture compression schemes:
- Flexibility, with bit rates from 8 bits per pixel (bpp) down to less than 1 bpp. This allows content developers to fine-tune the tradeoff of space against quality.
- Support for 1 to 4 color channels, together with modes for uncorrelated channels for use in mask textures and normal maps.
- Support for both low dynamic range (LDR) and high dynamic range (HDR) images.
- Support for both 2D and 3D images.
- Interoperability. Developers can choose any combination of features that suits their needs.
ASTC specification includes two profiles: LDR and Full. Both of these are supported on the 2nd generation of Mali™-T600 series. The smaller LDR Profile supports 2D low dynamic range images only. It is designed to be easy to integrate with existing hardware designs that already deal with compressed 2D images in other formats. The LDR Profile is a strict subset of the Full Profile, which also includes the 3D textures and high dynamic range support.

The portable kit that feels and sounds like a regular drum kit.
Whether you're a beginner picking out their first kit, or a seasoned pro looking at an additional kit for practice or gigging, making the choice of purchasing a complete drum set can give you the sound you need from day one. Modern drum kits have seen a great number of advances through the years. From their origins in Vaudeville, to keeping the back beat in juke joints in the 30s, to being an integral part of the rise of rock and roll music, great drumming can take even your favorite song to memorable new heights. There are a number of factors to keep in mind when purchasing a new drum set. First and foremost has got to be your location. You can have the most incredible drum set ever assembled, but if you can't play them without a noise complaint, what good are they? Where are you planning on playing these drums? Will you be set up in an area where you can rock out like Keith Moon? Or will volume be a concern? If you want to jam, but can't make a lot of noise, a kit such as the A400 from Traps or the GoKit from Taye might be the right option for you. Both are portable and reduce decibels for smaller venues or practicing. Once you determine where you'll be playing, it truly becomes a matter of personal preference. Do you want a simple kit with just the basics, or do you want more drums than limbs? Do you want a set that's more suited to jazz, or are you looking to play blazing fast heavy metal and punk rock? As always, there is no right or wrong drum kit, only the one that is going to work best for what you're trying to achieve.

FORT DRUM With a reduction of the number of furlough days across the military likely, the vice president of the posts civilian employee union said he hoped more unpaid leave days could be dropped.
Its a start, said Loren J. Zeilnhofer of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 400. Naturally, wed like to see the whole thing go away.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Thursday that new spending legislation approved earlier this week allowed the military to reduce the number of furlough days from 22 to 14.
Furlough notices were initially expected last week but were postponed for two weeks. Were the initial timetable to remain, furloughs would not begin until early May at the earliest.
However, a Department of Defense statement released Thursday specified the notices may not be issued until early May, pushing the furloughs back to mid- to late June. A final decision about furloughs has not been made.
With a moving target on furloughs, Mr. Zeilnhofer said it has been tough to plan for their impact.
Its still going to hurt people, but likely not as badly, he said.
Mr. Zeilnhofer said 14 furlough days may mean one unpaid day per two weeks from the start of furloughs until the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30.
Still, the more you compress it, the more difficult it becomes to fit it in, he said. Its really time for decisions to be made ... lets move on.
If the eight-day reduction were made, having 14 furlough days would represent a loss of about 5 percent of the 260-day work year.
Mr. Zeilnhofer said frustrations about the furlough process did not represent a problem with post leadership, and the parties were trying to deal with this lemon the best way we can.

Math Facts and Number Sense Lesson Plan: The Jelly Bean Game
In this number sense lesson plan which is adaptable for grades K-4, students will use jelly beans in an online game and real jellybeans as math manipulatives to practice number sense concepts, such as counting, more and less, estimation, algebraic thinking and missing addend equations, and addition and subtraction math facts.
Lesson Plan Common Core State Standards Alignments
Students will:
- Use an online math game to practice number sense concepts.
- Use jelly beans as math manipulatives to create and play their own hands-on math game.
- Computers with internet access for BrainPOP
- Interactive whiteboard (or just an LCD projector)
- Two small bags of jelly beans for each student (one for using as math manipulatives, and one for eating)
Preparation:This lesson uses a free online math game by Playpower Labs. To prepare, explore the Jelly Bean game yourself and determine which skills you would like to target: counting, number sense, or math facts. Within each section of the game, there are three levels, so it's important to choose which one is most appropriate for your students (or which levels of the game you will use for each of your students, if you want to provide differentiated game play opportunities):
Level 1: Type in the number of jelly beans
Level 2: Basic addition and subtraction with beans
Level 3: Counting arrays of jelly beans (addition and subtraction with multiple digits)
Number Sense:
Level 1: Choose the larger group of jelly beans
Level 2: Estimate the number of jelly beans
Level 3: More difficult combination of levels 1 and 2
Math Facts
Level 1: Addition and subtraction with numbers and beans
Level 2: Addition and subtraction to "Make 10"
Level 3: A mix of slightly harder problems
Note that you can click the clock in the main menu to turn off the timer during game play.
You should also choose a BrainPOP Jr. movie topic that is most closely related to your target skills. We recommend using Counting On, Repeated Subtraction, Basic Subtraction, Making Equal Groups, Adding and Subtracting Tens, or Making Ten for this lesson.
Lesson Procedure:
- Play the BrainPOP Jr. movie that is related to the version of Jelly Bean that your students will be playing (a list of relevant movie topics and links can be found in the Preparation section above.) You might also want to project the Word Wall related to the movie, and have students review the math vocabulary terms they will need to use during game play.
- Project the Jelly Bean game for the class to see. Demonstrate for students how to navigate into the portion of the game you would like them to play. You can also play several rounds of the game as a class and have student volunteers share their problem solving strategies.
- Pair students up and have them explore the Jelly Bean game together for 5-10 minutes. Students can take turns answering the questions, or one player can suggest the answer and the other player can click on it or type it in. Encourage students to explain their thinking to their partners using the math vocabulary words they've learned.
- Bring students back to a whole class discussion and have volunteers share their strategies for game play.
- Show students the bag of jelly beans you have for them, explaining that they are for playing math games and not for eating (although you will have untouched jelly beans that they can eat when the activity is finished.)
- Tell students that their job is to re-create the game they just played, or create another math game that practices the same skills. For example, students could take turns dividing the jelly beans into two piles and having the other player explain which amount shows more. Or, they could take turns showing only a few of the jelly beans to their partner and having their partner estimate the amount of jelly beans they have. Struggling students may want to recreate the online game literally, while more advanced students may want add an additional challenge or twist to game play. Extend students' thinking as needed.
- Pass out the jelly beans and give students several minutes to plan their game and decide on rules. Then allow 5-10 minutes of playing time. Afterward, you may want students to switch partners and teach their version of the Jelly Bean Game to their new partner, and practice their math skills in a different way.
- Have students throw away their jelly beans (or keep them in plastic baggies to use for math centers or later game play) and distribute the clean jelly beans for students to eat as a treat.
- You may want to have students reflect in writing about what they learned during the game, or brainstorm different ways they could play the game in the future. You can also use the BrainPOP Jr. movie quiz to assess student learning.

- Vaccines and antiviral therapies are critical for preventing and treating viral diseases. Testing these vaccines and drugs often requires healthy volunteers. To ensure that volunteers are healthy and eligible to participate in these studies, they will be screened before the start of the study. This screening may involve a medical history, physical exam, and blood test. Other samples may also be collected. This study will help identify volunteers who are eligible to participate in vaccine or antiviral therapy trials.
- To screen volunteers for clinical trials of vaccines or drugs to treat or prevent virus infections.
- Healthy volunteers at least 18 years of age.
- Screening may begin several months before the start of the clinical trial. Participants may come to the National Institutes of Health clinic one or more times.
- Participants may be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood samples will be collected. Other samples may also be collected, including urine, nasal wash, or stool samples. All samples will be stored for reference by the study researchers....

|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|April 2012
Vaccines and antiviral therapies are critical for prevention and treatment of viral diseases. Testing of vaccines and antiviral medications in volunteers may require knowing whether the subject has been previously infected by the virus. We will recruit healthy persons for this study and screen them for their eligibility to participate in clinical trials of investigational vaccines or antiviral products. In most cases this will involve a medical history, physical examination, and obtaining blood to test for antibodies to the virus being studied in a vaccine or antiviral therapy trial. In some cases blood may be tested for viral DNA or RNA and urine, stool, or nasal wash may be tested for viruses. Blood samples will also be stored for future research. This study should help us to identify a group of volunteers that will be eligible, based on testing for their prior exposure to viruses, to participate in vaccine or antiviral therapy trials, or live virus challenge studies.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
- Age: 18 years of age or older
- Available to participate for the planned duration of the clinical trial for which the screening is being done

2-On-Your-Side's Adam Benigni and Sal Maiorana of the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle discuss the release of veteran punter Brian Moorman, and look ahead to the match-up between the Bills and Patriots in Orchard Park on Sunday.
In a move that generated strong reaction both in the locker room and across the fan base, the Bills released Moorman on Tuesday after he struggled over the first three games. The Bills turned back to rookie Shawn Powell, who they had signed as an undrafted free agent out of Florida state to compete with Moorman in training camp.
That as the Bills prepare for a massive divisonal game against New England Sunday. The Bills (2-1) have opportunity to build a two game lead on the Patriots (1-2) who have lost their last two games, but haven't lost three straight in a decade.
WGRZ and the D&C are joining forces on-air and online to cover the Bills once again this season.

Rick DiPietro Done for the Year (Again) UPDATEDWill Undergo Surgery Tuesday
UPDATE, 1/14: The Official Statement from the team:
The New York Islanders announced today that Rick DiPietro will undergo surgery to repair a sports hernia. The procedure will sideline the Islanders goaltender for 10 weeks.
DiPietro, 30, has been sidelined since December 3, first with a groin strain and then with what is classified as a sports hernia and knee swelling. The Winthrop, MA, native has appeared in eight games this season, posting a 3-2-3 record.
A hernia isn't a big deal and he should eventually recover from that. The big news item here, as has been noted at other places, is the knee swelling. Unlike the hernia, it's a chronic problem and one that doesn't seem to be going away.
UPDATE, 7:25pm: From the Official Twitter
@NYIslanders Regarding DiPietro, expect the team to issue a statement tomorrow. #Isles
The news was released late on a Friday to minimize exposure and attention (and, as of 6:30pm it has yet to be acknowledged on the Official Twitter and Website) but Rick DiPietro is done, yet again, for the season. The news comes from Newsday and says that he will have surgery on Tuesday to repair a sports hernia.
On January 3rd DiPietro was sent home early from a recent road trip to Carolina along with Mike Mottau, already on IR for another injury. The fact that DiPietro had even traveled with the team — while the injured David Ullstrom and Al Montoya did not — certainly made it seem like he was nearing a return. Now, another injury, another setback, another lost year and another rehab.
Credit for asking the question that has been swirling around the internets and needed to be asked:
DiPietro tells Newsday no plans to retire: "Nothing like that has even crossed my mind… I know I can play." #Isles
This is now the fifth season ending injury of his career, if TSN has actually been able to tabulate all the injuries.
Further thoughts from CB on Twitter:
@ChrisBottaNHL DiPietro will be 1 of 3 #Isles Gs starting 2012-13. Kevin Poulin another, along with Montoya or similar cheap UFA.

As you may know if you've been following along, our focus lately has been on BigCommerce, which is our SaaS e-commerce offering. BigCommerce has been growing extremely fast since it was launched in 2009 and it's now very close to reaching 25,000 clients.
When we launched Interspire back in 2003, SaaS was still a new concept and our focus, much like everyone else's was on perpetually licensed (or "behind the firewall", as it's now called) software. Since then, times have of course changed and now most software is delivered on-demand.
As a result, today we're announcing that on July 1st 2012 we will be discontinuing the following products:
- Interspire Shopping Cart
- Interspire Knowledge Manager
- Interspire Website Publisher
This means that up until July 1st you will still be able to purchase licenses of these products, however on July 1st we will no longer be selling new licenses, upgrades or extra maintenance.
All existing clients will continue to receive support until their maintenance period expires, however after July 1st there won't be an option to extend or renew any maintenance period.
If you are an Interspire Shopping Cart customer and would like to switch to BigCommerce, then please go here to learn more. We have partners dedicated to assisting with the migration process and you can look forward to dozens of new features which are part of BigCommerce.
Thank you for supporting the Interspire products over the years and we hope they've helped you grow your business and revenues. Our focus moving forwards is on BigCommerce and really empowering business owners to take advantage of our SaaS e-commerce offering to grow their business.

Lock onto your position instantly with AssistNow
The challenge of stand-alone GNSS
GNSS users expect instant position information. With standard positioning this is often not possible because at least four satellites must be identified, and their complete orbital position data (called Ephemeris) received. Under adverse signal conditions, data downloads from the satellites to the receiver can take minutes, hours or even fail altogether. Assisted GNSS (A-GNSS) accelerates calculation of position by delivering satellite data such as Ephemeris, Almanac, accurate time and satellite status to the GNSS receiver via wireless networks or the Internet. This aiding data enables a GNSS receiver to compute a position within seconds, even under poor signal conditions.
AssistNow A-GPS services
AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline are u-blox' end-to-end A-GNSS services for OEM customers and their end users. These services boost GNSS acquisition performance for devices with or without network connectivity. AssistNow Online and AssistNow Offline can either be used alone or in combination. AssistNow A-GNSS services require no additional hardware and generate virtually no CPU load. The system is very easy to implement and can be installed and operational within a day. u-blox wireless modules feature an embedded AssistNow client making integration simple.
With AssistNow Online, an internet-connected GNSS device downloads assistance data from u-blox' AssistNow Online Service at system start-up. The service works on all standard mobile communication networks that support Internet access, including GPRS, UMTS and Wireless LAN. No special arrangements with mobile network operators are needed to enable AssistNow Online, making this solution network operator independent and globally available. u-blox only sends ephemeris data for those satellites currently visible to the mobile device requesting the data, thus minimizing the amount of data transferred.
With AssistNow Offline, users download u-blox' Differential Almanac Correction Data from the Internet at their convenience. The correction data is then transferred to the mobile terminal via TCP/IP, serial port, memory card, etc, and can either be stored in the GNSS receiver's memory or in the memory of the application processor. Therefore, the service requires no connectivity at system start-up and enables a position fix within seconds, even when no network is available.
u-blox provides correction data valid from 1 to 35 days. The size of these files increases with the length of the prediction period, from as little as 3 kB to 90 kB. Positioning accuracy decreases with the length of the correction data duration, with 1–3 day data providing relatively high accuracy and 10–35 day data progressively less accuracy. Regular updates help to ensure a high level of position accuracy.
AssistNow Autonomous
AssistNow Autonomous is an embedded feature available free-of-charge that accelerates GNSS positioning by capitalizing on the periodic nature of GNSS satellite orbits. GNSS orbit predictions are directly calculated by the GNSS receiver and no external aiding data or connectivity is required. AssistNow Autonomous can be used alone, or together with AssistNow Online or AssistNow Offline for increased positioning speed and accuracy.
Benefits of AssistNow
- Fast Time-To-First-Fix, even under poor signal conditions
- Global coverage
- Network operator independent
