Faculty Emeritus
Please note that normally, emeritus faculty cannot act as principal supervisors for M.A. or Ph.D. committees. However, an emeritus faculty may petition to the Graduate Program's Executive Committee, on a case-by-case basis, if he/she wishes to be principal supervisor on an M.A. or Ph.D. committee.
Adelman, Howard
Mallin, Sam
* Other tips for finding faculty members that might be valuable research resources:
Go to almost any York web page, and towards the top right side of the screen, there is will be a search box. That is to search York web pages. Put in the key research areas you are interested in, and it will give you web pages matching that criteria. If it takes you to a course, find out who teaches if. If it gives you a faculty members' name, check it out. If it gives you a research center, explore who is affiliated with the center. If the faculty member has a graduate appointment, then they may be someone you want to contact.
Also if a research center is listed, visit it. They often have other resources, email listservs, host talks from guest speakers, etc. so you need to investigate them earlier rather than later, and see what may be beneficial to them. In addition, research centers are also a possible source for Research Assistantships too, so you need to develop linkages with them if your research is in that area.
Also ask faculty members who are working somewhat but not directly in your area if they can recommend anyone closer to your research direction. Faculty members usually know most of their colleagues working in similar areas to their – either in the same time period, or geographical area, or the same school of thought as they are working in, so ask them. They can be one of the best resources for that type of information.

New Geothermal Data System Could Open Up Clean-Energy Reserves
Forgotten and filed away decades ago, millions of documents on geothermal research are now helping scientists to make harvesting the Earth's energy affordable
Geologic data does not come cheap, especially when you are using it to build a multimillion-dollar geothermal power plant. Just ask Susan Petty, president and chief technology officer at AltaRock Energy. Her company is part of a $43.8-million pilot project to tap thermal energy from Oregon's Newberry Volcano. Engineers are injecting water deep underground to fracture superheated rocks and create a geothermal reservoir. Their eventual goal is to recirculate pressurized steam back to the surface to test a new kind of technology called an enhanced geothermal system (EGS). Unlike conventional power power that rely on near-surface hydrothermal systems like springs and geysers, EGS can draw energy up to depths of three to five kilometers. Over the next 50 years, the U.S. Geological Survey estimates, EGS power plants could produce 100 gigawatts of economically viable geothermal energy, an amount equivalent to about 10 percent of the country's current electrical capacity.
Yet geothermal wells need to be drilled in the right place. Without data on the distribution and quantity of geothermal energy in the upper part of the earth's crust or a volcano as a reference point, wells may not produce much energy at all. To date, two to five out of every 10 geothermal wells prospected end up dry. Petty says that, in terms of the available exploration data, the geothermal industry is in the same place oil and gas companies were during the early 1900s. Wells cost between $2 million and $5 million, meaning geothermal investors risk losing millions on poor odds, Petty says. "The risk involved in geothermal prospecting sets the industry apart from other renewables."
The risky nature of the business could soon change, however.

|The Game Story:
|SMITHFIELD, R.I. – Eighteen different Bulldogs recorded a point, including 16 of them netting a goal, Saturday afternoon as the #19/19 Bryant University men's lacrosse team dominated Northeast Conference opponent Wagner College, 21-3, in the final regular-season home game of the year.
Saturday's contest, which also marked 2012 Senior Day, saw no Bryant player score more than two goals as the Bulldogs (12-3, 4-0 NEC) spread around the scoring and saw the majority of the roster hit the field to stay perfect in league play and set up a winner-take-all showdown with Robert Morris next weekend.
"To be 12-3 and perfect both in the league and at home with one game to go, to be playing for the regular-season title and home field advantage is just so exciting," said head coach Mike Pressler. "We are very very excited about this opportunity, but Robert Morris is the No. 1 offensive team in America, so the challenge for us is going to be incredible."
Wagner (1-12, 1-3) got two of its three tallies in the fourth, as sophomore goalie Niko Dutra (Danville, Calif.) took over for senior captain and four-year starter Jameson Love (Darien, Conn.) between the pipes, with the former making three stops in the final period and Love turning away eight and allowing just a single goal in 45 minutes of action.
Senior Travis Harrington (Vestal, N.Y.) and junior captain Peter McMahon (Wilton, Conn.) led the Bulldogs on the stat sheet with four points apiece, both off a pair of goals and two more assists. Starting sophomore Dan Sipperly (Greenwich, N.Y.) also netted a pair of tallies, as did junior longpole Mason Poli (Downingtown, Pa.) and sophomore Ryan Jarvis (Annapolis, Md.), whose goals were the first of his collegiate career.
Joining Jarvis with his first-career goal was rookie Ryan Yunker (Churchville, N.Y.), who also dished out two assists for three points on the day, and frosh Davin Lindsay (Whitby, Ont.), who notched the game's final tally -- a man-up score -- with three minutes to play in his first-career appearance as a Bulldog.
Other new faces to get involved in the offensive end included rookie midfielder Kevin Rudd (Berwyn, Pa.), who recorded three points of his own off a goal and two assists, and junior captain Nils Thompson (Ponoka, Alberta) and second-line middie Bo Redpath (Norwich, Vt.), who each collected a tally and an helper in the victory.
"I thought it was an exciting Senior Day, and we were ready to play again," said Pressler. "This took the sting of Friday night [a 11-10 double-overtime loss at #20 Yale] away."
The Bulldogs exploded for six goals in each of the first three periods Sunday, opening the game with four scores in the first five minutes and eventually taking a 12-1 halftime lead into the locker room. Bryant would keep most of its regulars on the sidelines for the fourth quarter, including Love and rookie faceoff phenom Kevin Massa (Huntington, N.Y.), as all three of the Bulldogs' fourth-frame goal scorers notched his first tally of the season in the contest.
Massa was impressive through three quarters against a trio of Seahawk opponents, finishing his day with a 19-of-21 clip before giving way to sophomore Rob Goeren (Massapequa, N.Y.), who won three of the six faceoffs in the final 15 minutes. Bryant finished the game going 22-of-27 from the X.
Wagner would earn its first offensive possession of the game with 4:42 left to play in the opening quarter with the score at 5-0 in Bryant's favor. The Seahawks capitalized on the opportunity, scoring the team's only goal of the three quarters off its first shot of the contest, a Nick DePhillips firing from 15-yards out that beat Love high.
The Bulldogs answered with 1:19 left in the quarter with the first of back-to-back Sipperly goals spanning the two frames for a 6-1 edge after the first 15 minutes of play. Sipperly and Harrington would be the only multi-goal scorers of the first half, each scoring twice as 10 different Bulldogs recorded a tally before the break.
As potent as Bryant's offense was, the Bulldogs struggled with the extra man in the first half, going 0-for-3 before scoring on each of the EMOs of the next two quarters to finish the day 2-for-5 in the category. Bryant's man-down defense kept the Seahawks off the board on two extra man opportunities.
All six offensive starters scored at least one goal for the Black and Gold in the win, as the hosts outshot their visitors, 48-30, on the day, recording double-digit shots in each of the first three stanzas. Bryant's 21 scores marked a new season high, as did the 18-goal margin of victory.
Bryant dominated the ground game with 47 ground balls to Wagner's 16 and were led by a game-high 11 from Massa. Defenseman Glenn Maiorano (Easton, Conn.) forced three caused turnovers as the Bulldogs completed 10 of their 14 clears and held Wagner to just a 13-of-20 mark.
The Bulldogs have one last huge test looming in front of them, though, as the deciding tilt with fellow league leader Robert Morris sits right around the corner (Saturday, 1 p.m.). Bryant will have to travel for the matchup as well, taking on the Colonials on their home turf in Moon Township, Pa., for the 2012 NEC regular-season crown and the right to host the upcoming NEC Tournament.

Windows Phone fans in India rejoice, as Nokia has just discounted the Lumia 920 smartphone to a more attractive price. The device is available for purchase via several major retailers across the country for various prices.
As WMPoweuser points out, Flipkart is now offering the Lumia 920 for only Rs 23,000 outright, which is about $375 or €280.
Nokia Lumia 920 was initially available for no less than Rs 27,340 ($450/€330), but now it looks like the smartphone has gotten a consistent discount.
The price reduction comes less than two weeks ahead of Nokia World 2013, where the Finnish company is expected to announce at least six new Windows Phone devices.
Although it was launched on the market back in November, the Lumia 920 is still one of the best Windows Phone handsets. It comes with a dual-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz, 1GB of RAM and an impressive 8-megapixel rear-facing PureView camera.

Compare and contrast kitchens from the 1920s to those we love nearly a century later
Many times I've mentioned the Victorian era kitchen style popular between 1900-1930 and how we keep reinventing it nearly a century later. Still, there's nothing quite like actual photos of vintage kitchens — like The Kitchen Practical, 1929, above — side-by-side with recently renovated kitchens to put the point across specifically. When I came across an album of 1920s kitchens, it became clear to me how much things had changed – and also how little.

Challenger is truly a one-of-a-kind school! The teachers and faculty are amazing and the test scores prove it. Being ranked 2nd in the state in 2011 definitely comes as no surprise! The standards are set high but there is plenty of help and support for students who may need it. It's great to see how many parents are involved with their children not only academically but also with school functions and volunteering as well. We are very blessed to have our daughter enrolled in such a wonderful school!
This school is wonderful. My daughter started in Kindergarten and is now in 5th grade. She loves this school and refuses to go anywhere else. There is more work requirements and more homework but it will prepare her for the future. It's nice to know she is in good hands. The staff is great and exceptionally smart and intelligent. Keep up the good work.
A beautiful newer school with emphasis on math and science, CK8 is great school.
This school delivers top notch education. The teachers are above average. We were very fortunate to get accepted through the portfolio. This school expects more but so does getting ahead in life. Science fair participation is a requirement. We make it fun. It can be a great bonding experience. Plus the middle school is above avage too. Offering classes no other school does. And the field trips are always exceptional.
this is the best school i have ever been in..... been there since the first year and all the teachers are great,very dedicated to there work and they love to smile. Challenger is the best
It is a great school! Lots of homework but just what kids need,
We have been a part of this school since it opened in 2005.
The teachers and staff are amazing and very hands on.
The PTA is wonderful
Just look at the FCAT scores.
My children will graduate into high school very prepared.

Comments about NRS Big Kahuna Inflatable PFD:
I use the inflatable PFD for outrigger paddling. I had a problem with the little green safety pin. It is very delicate. I'm not a dim witted gorilla, but I broke two of them. I broke the first pin when i was removing it from the packaging prior to installation in the vest. I called NRS and they sent me another, and that one broke off when i was inserting in the arming hole. I have not used the vest for an emergency yet. But I like it's fit. Careful of the green pin.

I purchased this item for fly fishing float trips as local regulations require life jackets for the fall - spring to be worn. These offer a great alternative to bulkier PFDs and allow me to better control the boat and the sport to fish more freely. I tested in the river and was very impressed with the ease of use and the recharge ease.
I highly recommend.

Q:Having children who hate wearing traditional PFDs, what are the child's size limitations on this product?Asked on 6/25/2015 by SeaLand from NC
4 answers
A:Due to the reality that this life vest is for emergency situations, I would not recommend it for a child that is less than 10 years old. Your child should be a very good swimmer and experienced in the water. Then you would have some confidence that your child would have the wherewithal to inflate and put on the vest during an emergency. I would also be concerned about inflated size being to big for your child. And you would also need to consider that your kid will accidentally pull the inflate string. You will need to order extra CO2's. This inflatable PFD is for adults and teenagers, not children. If your children hate PFD's then get them to be very proficient in the water and waves. Then you can feel confident that when the need arises for the vest, that they will be able to put it on quickly. If the CO2 doesn't work your child will have to inflate it manually, one breath at a time, and that may be hard in an emergency. Not for children.
A:Hello -
My two cents:
This is definitely not appropriate for children to use as a life vest. It takes coordination and calm under pressure to activate the pull cord and get this vest placed over your head if you take a swim; something most kids don't possess in an emergency situation. Stick to a low profile body worn vest for the kiddos. For what it is worth some states won't even let kids wear waist worn inflatables as primary floatation devices so you should check that too if you decide to get them anyway. Happy paddling!!

A:I can sympathize with your kids on this issue. However, the NRS Big Kahuna is only approved for use by persons 16 years of age or older. The NRS Crew Youth or NRS Vista Youth are good, comfortable options for kids and are not your standard orange block PFDs.Answered on 6/26/2015 by Kyle from NRS
A:I personally would not allow this pfd on children under 15. The reason I say this is. Most times U need a pfd are stressful situations fell out of a boat. Boat tipped over If u want one for a child get the type that are deployed around their head just not inflated yet these work better for people who tend to panic or not know what to do initially is an emergency. hope it helps

Q:How much does it weigh?Asked on 8/23/2014 by Curious paddler
2 answers
A:It weighs 30 ounces.Answered on 8/23/2014 by Clyde from NRS
Regarding the questions, How much does it weigh?
It's light, and the weight is not noticeable. It sits like a fanny pack around your waist. A weight comparison would be a fanny pack with three or four golf balls in it. One caution is be very very very careful of the arming pin. it is very fragile. treat the arming pin like it was ten times more delicate than it appears. Otherwise, strap it on and go paddle. I strap mine on three times a week. If it gets wet, I rinse it out with fresh water, and let air dry, and then roll it back up into the fanny pack.

Q:To operate the manual inflatable PFD, does one (1) pull the inflation cord first allowing the inflation to open the Velcro top of the pouch or (2) open the Velcro pouch top FIRST and then pull the inflation cord? (Sorry to ask, but nowhere in the voluminous instructions does it address this critical question.) Thanks.Asked on 11/30/2013 by Dave from Lake Jackson, TX
3 answers
A:Dave, the force of the expanding CO2 will push the flap open and deploy the inflation chamber.Answered on 11/30/2013 by Clyde from NRS
Never had to operate a PFD like this one, I would open the velcro pouch
first, if one as time...I guess a trial is in order to be sure.
Hope the above is helpful.Answered on 11/30/2013 by Anonymous
A:Dave, The CO2 will blow open the pouch. Why add another step when you are
in obvious need to get some buoyancy PRONTO!
You could open the pouch if you had the time and the focus to do it.Answered on 11/30/2013 by Anonymous

A:Scot, it certainly can be used for a variety of water sports. One thing to take into consideration is that once inflated you need to replace the CO2 cartridge. A conventional life jacket is more practical for repeated immersions.Answered on 11/11/2013 by Clyde from NRS

Q:The tag on the inside of the PDF states to have it inspected at the start of each season. Is there a list of faculties to get it inspected by?Asked on 7/28/2013 by David from Merritt Island Florida
2 answers
A:Take it to a Coast Guard office. Look for one in your area.Answered on 7/29/2013 by Anonymous
A:Dear paddler, Your Personal Floatation Device (PFD) could be inspected by
your retailer if you bought it at a paddle shop "brick and morter" or by the
U.S. Coast Auxiliary. The tag also has a phone number for the
Halkey-Roberts Corp***.****; where you may or may not get information
on a facility that will do "Authorized Service" on your PFD. All I do is a
manual inflation to check for leaks, unscrew the CO2 cylinder and make sure
the end hasn't been punctured and still weighs the same; 33 grams is the
fill weight of CO2 , not the gross weight of the cylinder. Before
reinstalling the cylinder I activate the firing arm a few times to make
certain it is not "frozen" and then reassemble and repack. Do remember they
come NOT armed from the supplier when you buy it. Make certain the cylinder
is installed and seated before you go paddling, every time (folks have found
their cylinder mysteriously missing at the worst time) and anytime you are
separated from it for any length of time.

Q:Is this confortable and durable enough to use repeatedly for packraft trips. That means wearing while paddling all day? Will it withstand many uses? If in no hurry, can you inflate it sufficiently without the CO2 on a regular basis? If planning on inflation only by breath, and leaving home all parts related to inflating with CO2, what does it weigh? Thanks!Asked on 5/10/2013 by Brad from United States
1 answer
A:Brad, a self inflating PFD is designed to be inflated and donned just when needed in a swim; I would not recommend it for all-day wear. It's plenty durable for multiple inflation cycles and you can readily inflate it by mouth. With the CO2 cylinder the PFD weighs 1.7 pounds. Without the cylinder it weighs 1.35 pounds.Answered on 5/13/2013 by Anonymous

A:It is certified by the US Coast Guard as a Type V PFD; a category they use for "special purpose personal flotation devices." However, it meets the Coast Guard requirement for a Type III PFD when it is worn on your person.

"This means if on the CD no other ubiquity supported windows managers are present compiz will be used as the last fallback."
"In practice this means that metacity will fall off Ubuntu Desktop and Ubuntu Nexus images as of next build with this ubiquity version included. No other images/flavours should be affected," stated Dmitrijs Ledkovs, a software developer at Canonical, in a mailing list post entitled Farewell Metacity.
The only thing that stops Canonical from removing Metacity altogether is the fact that openjdk still depends on this package. In any case, Metacity is done for.
All we can say now is farewell Metacity, it was a beautiful journey.

Editor's Note: On April 15, Ukraine's military began an anti-terrorist operation against Kremlin-backed insurgents who have taken over numerous government buildings and police headquarters in several cities of Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine's most populous region where 10 percent of the nation's 45 million people live. The Kyiv Post has journalists in Donetsk Oblast and will be updating as events happen.
On April 17, diplomats from the U.S., EU, Ukraine, and Russia announced that that they had reached an agreement that may help de-escalate separatist violence in eastern Ukraine.
SBU ramping up security operations in Kharkiv Oblast, plans to cordon off separatists in Donetsk
2:25 p.m. -- At a press conference held in Kyiv on April 18 the Security Service of Ukraine announced that they are stepping up security operations in Kkarkiv Oblast, especially around the city of Kharkiv, by inspecting more vehicles entering the region for weapons, ammunition and explosives.
The SBU also said that in Donetsk Oblast security forces were creating a cordon between the civilian population and the separatists.
The Security Service of Ukraine continues to detain people entering the country with large amounts of cash and military equipment.

Insurgents in Donetsk refuse to surrender occupied buildings
12:56 p.m. -- On April 18, the head of the separatist Donetsk People's Republic announced that his men will not lay down their arms or surrender occupied buildings unless the government in Kyiv resigns.
Denis Pushilin said that his men do not consider the government in Kyiv to be legitimate, and will not respond to its demands.
Pushilin reiterated the Republic's demand that a referendum on federalization be held in Donetsk Oblast by May 11.

Obama on Geneva agreements: "we're going to prepare additional responses should Russia fail to take a different course"
12:16 p.m. -- After diplomats from the U.S., EU, Russia, and Ukraine announced on April 17 that they had reached an agreement that may help diffuse tensions in eastern Ukraine, President Obama announced that the U.S. would continue to prepare sanctions against Russia, should Vladimir Putin continue to foment separatism in the east.
At a press conference on April 17, Obama said that the U.S. would "prepare additional responses should Russia fail to take a different course. We've already had an impact on their economy that is well documented. It could get significantly worse."
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and top diplomats from Ukraine, the U.S., and the EU signed a statement issued following the quadrilateral talks, which expressed the need to disarm militants and to pressure pro-Russian insurgents to surrender occupied buildings in eastern Ukraine.
Obama expressed some doubt that Russia would follow through on its promises to pursue de-escalation:
We're not going to know whether, in fact, there's follow-through on these statements for several days."
He said that "In the meantime, we're going to make sure that we continue to help the Ukrainian government -- working with the IMF, the Europeans and others -- to stabilize their economy and to start reforming it. We're going to continue to work with our NATO allies to make sure that they are assured that we're going to meet our Article 5 obligations and that they are secure."
Obama acknowledged that Russia still has large numbers of troops positioned on the Ukrainian border "as a gesture of intimidation." -- Isaac Webb

A. History professors are good references. But you may also want to have more varied references, such as other professors, or people you work with. For example, for the Givens it would be good to have the reference of someone who can speak of your engagement in community/public activities. If you are applying for the Jo Arthur, it would be good to have the reference of a professor in the department that manages the study abroad program.

A new series of screenshots from the upcoming Hitman: Absolution game have surfaced, showing off some of the different environments that the protagonist, Agent 47, will explore on his new adventures.
Hitman: Absolution once again puts players in the sharp shoes and suit of Agent 47 as he now tries to escape his former life and make sense of a huge conspiracy.

As many IT departments struggle to keep up with yearly technology changes, company employees increasingly want to use their own devices to access corporate data.
It's part of a growing trend dubbed Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), which encompasses similar Bring Your Own Technology (BYOT), Bring Your Own Phone (BYOP) and Bring Your Own PC (BYOPC) initiatives. All of them have evolved to empower workforces through the so-called 'consumerisation of IT'.
As part of this consumerisation, BYOD encourages company employees to work on the device they choose - accessing corporate email on their iPhone 5 or using a Google Nexus 7 to view text documents. The goal for SMBs? Increased productivity and reduced costs.
But BYOD also has a darker side. If not fully understood and regulated, it can threaten IT security and put a company's sensitive business systems at risk.
Why BYOD matters
The driving force behind BYOD is a new IT self-sufficiency among company employees who already own and use personal laptops, tablets and smartphones.
These mobile devices are often newer and more advanced than the equipment deployed by many IT departments. It's hardly surprising that the rapid adoption of lightweight Ultrabooks, iPads and large-screened phones are changing the way that people want to work.
IT departments are playing catch up and could easily refuse to embrace the BYOD idea. Surely it's simpler to provide approved hardware and software applications so you can retain full control over them?
But Richard Absalom, an analyst at Ovum, believes that BYOD will happen whether a company plans for it or not. He says: "Trying to stand in the path of consumerised mobility is likely to be a damaging and futile exercise." The best thing that an SMB or enterprise can do is be aware of the benefits and understand the risks.
BYOD benefits and advantages
There are some key advantages to operating a BYOD strategy, including increased employee satisfaction (they can work more flexibly), cost savings (reduced hardware spend, software licensing and device maintenance) plus productivity gains (employees are happier, more comfortable and often work faster with their own technology).
As Mark Coates, EMEA VP at Good Technology, points out: "By enabling employees to securely and easily access corporate data on their own device, productivity levels will naturally increase. In terms of cost savings, there are huge benefits, since SMBs will not have to manage and fund a second device for employees."
Shaun Smith, technology practice director at Xceed Group, agrees. "At Xceed Group, allowing the use of consumer devices has helped improve both productivity and staff motivation," he says. But he also strikes a note of caution. "For a company to decide if a BYOD strategy would work for them they need to ensure due diligence is conducted - simply evaluating the benefits versus risks."
BYOD risks and disadvantages
While BYOD sounds attractive, businesses need to consider the full implications of allowing corporate data to be accessed on personal devices that they could have little or no control over. What data can employees have access to? What security measures are in place if an employee's device is lost, stolen or compromised?
This is where convenience clashes with security. "Security and the loss of devices with limited password protection is naturally a key concern," adds Smith. "Increased consumerisation in the workplace can bring with it an increased risk from threats such as hackers and viruses."
There might also be cost implications. Even though IT hardware spend can potentially be reduced with a BYOD approach, it may cost more for a company to integrate and support a diverse range of employee devices. As Coates points out: "Android devices can be complex to manage as there are just so many different flavours - a huge variety of devices and a number of different versions of the operating system."

The conflict in Syria continues to impact the humanitarian situation resulting in significant humanitarian needs.
Access to basic needs including food, water, electricity and medical supplies has been interrupted in areas witnessing armed activities. A growing number of main breadwinners have become unemployed and soaring food and fuel prices across the country have also exacerbated the situation. In response, WFP – in partnership with the Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC) and 23 other local organizations– is providing monthly food assistance to close to 3 million Syrians and will scale up to feed 4 million people by October. Food rations contain rice, bulgur, pasta, dried and canned pulses, oil, tomato paste, salt and sugar and are enough for one month. With serious bread shortages across the country, in April WFP also started the distribution of wheat flour providing 5 kilograms of flour per person per month. WFP uses over 700 trucks a month to dispatch food to hundreds of distribution points across the country, as well as delivering other goods for the humanitarian community.
Hundreds of thousands of families have fled the violence in their country and have taken refuge in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey and Egypt. Humanitarian needs assessments in these countries showed that food is a top priority and WFP is responding to refugees' needs with food distributions and innovative food vouchers.

Calcareous rocks, like limestone and marble (a rock modified by heat and pressure), are made mainly by calcite, a mineral form of the calcium carbonate. The calcite is insoluble in pure water, but the rain water contains carbon dioxide, coming from air or soil, and forms a weak acid that react with the calcite, resulting a soluble salt, calcium bicarbonate, which is transported as a solution.
Another trait of the calcareous rocks is given by their strong bonding. Vertical bonds formed when the original deposits dehydrated and contracted. Horizontal bonds are sheaths interposed between the sedimentary deposits that later transformed in rocks. These joints allow the table waters to pass through the rocks that otherwise would be solid and even impermeable.
The most spectacular cave systems appear in the calcareous rocks, in the seeping of the table waters through the rocks. They gradually enlarged the cracks, turning them into vertical chimneys, passages and vast opened chambers. When the level of the table water rises, the caves are flooded. When the level lowers, a labyrinth of tunnels and grottoes appears. The table waters go out at the base of the calcareous rocks, where the downward movement of the water is stopped by an impermeable, solid rock. That's why the base of a calcareous deposit is marked by a series of underground springs. In many cases, the abrupt slopes of mountain gorges may have formed following the collapse of caves.
Caves with rugged decors form a karstic landscape. In many cases, abrupt ravines follow the vertical joints. The surface of the calcareous rocks is often interrupted by narrow holes or orifices. The orifices formed in the joint areas of the rocks can widen in deep ravines swallowing springs.
Because of the water seeping through joints and cracks, calcareous surfaces or pavements are usually dry. Calcareous rocks are delimited in "cleavage blocks" and separated by large ravines. At major joints, the rock is dissolved, forming funnel-like cavities or larger sinkholes, called dolines. They can be 100 m (330 m) in section and can reveal subterranean rivers that run from one cave into another.
Many calcareous surfaces contain the valleys of drought rivers, and many valleys could have been carved during the Ice Age, when the soil was frozen and the water could not seep through the calcareous soil, digging valleys on the surface.
Drought valleys can also appear through erosion. With the sinking of the surface, table waters sink too, and the surface rivers go dry.
In cold areas, waters come especially from the melting of the snow and weep the encountered sediments, leaving behind a barren, rocky pavement.
Warm regions are dominated by wide valleys called polje, connected through abrupt slopes. They can have surfaces up to 250 square km and form temporary lakes in the winter, when the water cannot be drained through the cave system.
In wet tropics, karst areas can form abrupt hills rising over flat plateaus, the so called "karst towers". Adjacent dolines can widen until flat terrains between them disappear, leaving behind a series of isolated cliffs, called karst cones.
The most common limestones are:
_chalk, one of the purest types, made by the microscopic remains of plants and animals;
_coralline rocks, limestone layers made by the external skeleton of the coral polyps;
_dolomite, with a high content of calcium and magnesium carbonate;
_fossil limestone, containing fossils, like shells combined through calcite cement;
_oolite limestone, containing calcite particles formed when calcite covers small particles like sand or shells. Pisolitic limestone contains larger particles;
_travertine, a compact limestone deposit, like the stalactites and stalagmites from caves or around springs and geysers. Tufa is a spongy type of travertine.

COLUMBIA - Expected contract numbers were released Tuesday for the new University of Missouri head men's basketball coach Kim Anderson.
MU Athletic Spokesman Chad Moller said Anderson's base salary would be $300,000. Anderson would get $800,000 in guarantees, making his guaranteed salary $1.1 million.
Moller said Anderson's contract allows for incentives, and if he were to get all the incentives, his salary would be around $2.4 million.
Moller said these are just the expected numbers, and hard numbers will be released once the contract is fully executed in 10-14 days.
Anderson was officially introduced as the Missouri's new head men's basketball coach during a news conference Tuesday morning. He replaces Frank Haith who left for the University of Tulsa April 18.

Synovial fluid analysis
Synovial fluid analysis is a group of tests that examine joint (synovial) fluid. The tests help diagnose and treat joint-related problems.
Alternative Names
Joint fluid analysis; Joint fluid aspiration
How the test is performed
A sample of synovial fluid is needed for this test. Synovial fluid is normally a thick, straw-colored liquid found in small amounts in joints, bursae (fluid-filled sacs in the joints), and tendon sheaths.
After the joint area is cleaned, the health care provider inserts a sterile needle through the skin and into the joint space. Fluid is then drawn through the needle into a sterile syringe.
The fluid sample is sent to the laboratory. The laboratory technician:
- Checks the sample's color and clarity
- Places the sample under a microscope, counts the number of red and white blood cells, and looks for crystals (in the case of gout) or bacteria
- Measures glucose, proteins, uric acid, and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH)
- Cultures the fluid to see if any bacteria grow
How to prepare for the test
Normally, no special preparation is needed. Tell your health care provider if you are taking a blood thinner, such as aspirin, warfarin (Coumadin) or clopidogrel (Plavix). These medicines can affect test results or your ability to take the test.
How the test will feel
Sometimes, the health care provider will first inject numbing medicine into the skin with a small needle, which will sting. A larger needle is then used to draw out the synovial fluid.
This test may also cause some pain if the tip of the needle touches bone. The procedure usually lasts less than 1 to 2 minutes.
Why the test is performed
The test can help diagnose the cause of pain, redness, or swelling in joints.
Sometimes, removing the fluid can also help relieve joint pain.
This test may be used when your doctor suspects:
- Bleeding in the joint after a joint injury
- Gout and other types of arthritis
- Infection in a joint
What abnormal results mean
Abnormal joint fluid may look cloudy or abnormally thick.
Blood in the joint fluid may be a sign of injury inside the joint or a body-wide bleeding problem. An excess amount of normal synovial fluid can also be a sign of osteoarthritis or cartilage injury.
- Infection of the joint -- unusual but more common with repeated aspirations
- Bleeding into the joint space
Ice or cold packs may be applied to the joint for 24 to 36 hours after the test to reduce the swelling and joint pain. Depending on the exact problem, you can probably resume your normal activities after the procedure. Talk to your health care provider to determine what activity is most appropriate for you.

2015 - Here we come!Wednesday, October 15, 2014
We've had a bit of a weird 2014, we took a break for a few months, but we played a few gigs and even wrote a new song, Rock Dogging, which is quickly becoming a classic of our set!
2015 is now just around the corner and we are ready to hit the streets again rejuvenated and ready to ROCK! We're booking gigs and hope to see you soon!
Till then, keep on rocking!
2014 - We Are On A Break!Friday, February 7, 2014
We had a great 2013. New boy, Tian, slotted right into the band and we hardly missed a beat. We even managed to meet up with our old band-mates, the Dawe brothers, for the charity event, Rock Diabetes in November. In fact, we rocked so hard last year that a few things broke and need fixing.
Anyone who has been paying attention will have realized we've been pretty quiet for the last few weeks since Christmas. The really eagle-eyed (read uber fans - yes, both of you!) may have seen we have just cancelled a few gigs too. Rock Dog is indeed taking a few months off from gigging. But never fear, we will be back stronger and even better (if that is possible!) in the summer. And we are not being idle. We are working on new material, both covers and original songs.
We won't disappoint when we hit the circuit again in June. Hope to see you there!
New guitarist and Rock Dog goes from strength to strength!Monday, August 5, 2013
We've been quiet on the website for the last few months, but we're pleased to announce that we have a new guitarist. Welcome to Tian Lee!
Tian has been with the band for a few months now and is up to speed. He already has a couple of gigs under his belt and we are all looking forward to playing again this Saturday, 10th August at the Prestbury Sports Bar in Warminster.
We have a few more gigs lined up this year and will soon be booking for 2014. Hope you can come and see us play soon!
New beginnings and search for a guitaristSaturday, February 23, 2013
It is with heavy hearts that Rock Dog says goodbye to guitarist Chris Dawe. Chris has been with the band since its beginnings back in 2007 and has been an integral part of its sound and stage presence since then. With his flamboyant, blistering solos and sense of humour both on- and off-stage, he will be tough to replace and will be missed by the other members of the band and the audience alike.
He is leaving the band on the best of terms and we wish him all the best in the future.
As a result of Chris leaving, Rock Dog is currently holding auditions for a new guitarist. If you think you have what it takes to join the best rock band in the south west, contact us.
We have also had to cancel some gigs and we may well have to cancel more, depending on how quickly we can find a replacement. We hope to be out gigging again soon. See you then!
Goodbye old year, hello newSaturday, January 5, 2013
Well it has been an age since I last updated this website, most of the updates come through our twitter and facebook accounts, so the website gets a bit neglected.
2012 was a great year for Rock Dog. We went from strength to strength and really seemed to hit our stride in the second half of the year, with gig after gig being "the best yet". Everything has just seemed to click and our performances reflect this. Rock Diabetes was a stand out moment for us. It was great to be part of such a great event, with so many talented bands on the bill.
We have even started writing our own material and are looking forward to playing some of our own tunes in the gigs this year (though don't worry - we'll still play mostly the great rock and metal covers our audiences have learnt to expect from us)!
We have lots of gigs lined up for 2013 and it looks set to be another corker. Hope you can join us!

Change of venue!Saturday, January 21, 2012

Merry Christmas and a Rocking New YearSaturday, December 10, 2011
Well, that's it for this year. No more gigs till next year. Now it is time for us to prepare for the onslaught of rock that starts on January 7th 2012 at the Rising Sun, North Bradley. The gig is to celebrate Damon, the landlord's, birthday, so should be a corker. In the meantime, we'll retire to the studio and rehearse some new material to wow you all with.
Have a great Christmas, and see you in 2012!
New dates added to the booking calendarSaturday, October 1, 2011
We had a great time at the Reckless in Bristol, followed by our second gig at the Riverside in Midsomer Norton. The Midsomer crowd seemed to take its time warming up, but in the end the let the ROCK embrace them! We've been invited back for more next year, so hopefully they'll be ready for some hard rocking!
Quite a few new gigs have been added to the bookings in the last few days, and we're in the process of booking more, so keep an eye on this site for information on what is coming up.
Keep on Rocking!
Hot Rocking at The Rising Sun!Thursday, August 11, 2011
The Rising Sun gig was a blast. Lots of friends turned up to see the band and once again the band attracted attention from the media, getting interviewed in the break by a local journalist. Let's see if anything gets published.
Next gig is The Reckless Engineer in Bristol. We always have a great time there so we're all looking forward to a great night. Hope to see you there!
Beer, Rock and The Cock!Sunday, July 3, 2011
Rock Dog's performance at the Cheddar Ales Beer Festival was a triumph. Despite all manner of technical problems, the band gave a show that pleased the several hundred strong audience and the organisers of the festival alike. Rock Dog has been asked back next year, so watch this space for the confirmed date.
The week after the Beer Festival, Rock Dog played its first gig in Warminster at The Cock Inn. We played a great gig to a small crowd that included a local journalist, Charles Drought, who wrote a piece about the night and took some photos. Once the article is available we will reproduce it on this site.
Next gig, The Rising Sun in North Bradley. Hope to see you there!
Cheddar Ales Beer FestivalTuesday, May 24, 2011
Rock Dog has been confirmed as the headline act at the Cheddar Ales Beer Festival.
It looks like it will be a fun time, with 45 real ales on tap with live music throughout the day. Details of the festival can be found here and Rock Dog will be on at 9pm on Saturday 18th June.

Blackburn Atom 4.0 cycle computer £39.99
Compact, easy to read computer, but a backlight would make it even better
Weight 39g Contact www.madison.co.uk
Previous Review
Next Review
Blackburn's Atom 4.0 is not a bells 'n' whistles, all-singing and dancing computer for those who want to scrutinise every moment of their training runs, or indeed bore their riding companions, friends and family to tears. On the contrary, it's a pared to the essentials, slimline unit with uncluttered display for racers needing a combination of pinpoint accuracy (Speeds measured in tenths of a kph/mph) and crystal clarity. That said; current speed, average speed, maximum speed, trip distance, total distance, 12/24-hour clock, and battery life indicator are pretty comprehensive and the build quality's top notch too.
The Atom employs cable ties for the top mount, which might've seemed bargain basement a few years back but assures a genuinely universal fit on standard and oversized handlebars and stem. In saying that, stem mounting works best with oversized ahead rather than quill or more sculpted designs such as the Woodman it's on in the pictures). Installation is pretty intuitive and takes ten minutes tops, although unlike some, the head unit will not communicate with other brands of fork transponder but the range is excellent and seemingly unaffected by tri bars/other handlebar furniture.
Setting the head unit and navigating through the functions is equally simple so long as you remember the right-handed button selects the modes while the left resets-this led to unintentional data erasure for the first couple of rides but quickly became second nature. Bijous dimensions (23x24mm display) over two lines belie the remarkable at-a glance-in-all conditions clarity. However, a backlight would've been a nice touch-especially in the mid winter gloom. More precise than most, it measures speed to the tenth of an mph/kph and proactively thundering past the ancient Magnox nuclear reactor, power lines and other areas of high interference failed to induce any of the once infamous 99.9mph readings and the lifetime warranty adds further peace of mind.
Bijous computer with extremely clear display and clever detailing but a backlight would earn it an extra point.

Very nice, nay intuitive to use.
Tell us how the product performed overall when used for its designed purpose
The Atom is almost everything you could want in a training/race companion. Light weight, simple, solid construction, clear display with just the right balancce of functions. Measuring speed in a tenth of an mph/kph offers greater precision than most and the pacer arrow really keeps you motivated.
It hasn't missed a beat-even riding through areas of high interference and the head unit passed my bucket of water test so should cope admirably with cross/winter and even mtb duties. The one thing I missed was a backlight- a real boon in winter.
Tell us what you particularly liked about the product
Low weight, sleek, yet practical design, clear display and great build quality.

Nothing, although a backlight would've been nice.

This month Wyman teens from Normandy High School spent a day engaged in a community service learning opportunity at [RE]FRESH, a "fashion forward resale boutique" that provides affordable clothing to teens and twenties, community service opportunities, and support for the programs of the Foster & Adoptive Care Coalition.
The students pitched in for this cause as a part of Wyman's Teen Outreach Program®, and served many roles at the store including, sorting, steaming and tagging clothing. They had a great time with this experience and most importantly learned the value of serving the community in a volunteering effort.
Community service learning, a cornerstone of Wyman programs, doesn't just affect one's integrity. It also helps to support local human service organizations and can even help familiarize teens with different career fields. There are several teens who volunteer their time in hospitals, offices, and child care settings as means of laying groundwork for a possible future career path. This commitment to future success sets a standard to employers and college recruiters.
The purpose of this commitment is to assist and support those in need in many different ways while exposing our teens to environments different than their own. At the end of the day, both those helped and those who volunteered benefit.

In a weak week for SEC football, the renewal of this ancient rivalry is the best of a mediocre lot. The Rebels have made huge strides under first-year coach Hugh Freeze, a win from bowl eligibility after going 2-10 in 2011. QB Bo Wallace leads an Ole Miss offense averaging 413.2 ypg, including 247.6 passing. Meanwhile, LSU's offense has finally gained a long-sought balance with QB Zach Mettenberger, who has thrown for 571 yards, 3 TDs and no INTs the last two games.
