Richard Dawkins and others claim that science and religion are incompatible. Others argue that on a more sophisticated view there is only the appearance of a clash. Who is right?
A leading British scientific institution is facing criticism for its effective dismissal of a leading scientist after he made remarks about creationism in the classroom that it admits were misinterpreted by the media.
The Vatican has announced an upcoming international conference on "Biological Evolution: Facts and Theories. A Critical Appraisal 150 years after 'The Origin of Species'", to mark the Darwin celebrations and build the science-theology dialogue.
A leading biological scientist, and the prestigious Royal Society he works for, has said that his comments on creationism and the classroom have been misrepresented - and that it is opposed to creationism being taught as science.
Our bodies are made of the same stuff as the planet itself and every species, including humanity, came into being against powerful odds. What does this say to us about creation and our place in it?
The 'Big Bang' has reopened questions about the creation of the universe.
Does science lead inexorably to atheism?

So I'm gearing up for an urban campaign. The setting is a flying metropolis, New Laqueta, cobbled together from various flying debris and structures: a flying city a la Laputa, a Cloud Castle, many derelict airships, several helicarriers... Pretty much a 40K space hulk, but in the sky. And colonized.
I've figured the city has a population of around 30,000, and is fairly densely packed. So much so that I have been considering inflating the cost of living values and/or the capital system from the Downtime system. Simply put, I want players to struggle early game to get a foothold in the city; as they start making a name for themselves and accomplishing greater and greater things, it will get easier.
Anyone have any advice or guidance?

Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool (formerly Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool)220.127.116.11
editor's review
1 comment
Many applications leave behind some files, registry entries or similar data that may clog the system and it's the job of dedicated programs to clean up after a messy uninstall.
When it comes to large software suites things tend to become a bit more complicated because they often come with big datasets which may include examples, add-ons and other components.
Among the most well-known packages of this kind are Adobe's Creative Suite and Creative Cloud products, which are notorious for their size and for the abundance of elements they come with. A dedicated utility for removing all the traces of such software is Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Simple-to-handle deletion operations
When you run the app for the first time, you will notice the command-line interface and the fact that it was made with practicality in mind. There are no complex settings to configure and it's all only a matter of choices you have to enter successively a couple of times.
Supported Adobe products
Bear in mind that this particular utility will only deal with the remnants of the Adobe products that have been uninstalled using the classical method. Also, it will not impact on the software installed onto the system.
The list of supported programs includes CS3 through CS6 suites, Creative Cloud as well as specific versions of Flash Player. With the help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool you will also be able to clear all Adobe ID credentials that were stored onto the system it is deployed on.
Restart your computer and check out logs
As soon as the cleaning procedure is complete, you will receive a notification in the main window of the application and you may have to reboot the computer in order to make the changes come into effect. All the data concerning this operation is saved into a log file, so you can review it anytime.
An overall efficient application
To sum things up, it's safe to say that Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool is indeed a most useful helper that will prove its worth for all users who wish to reclaim some disk space and completely get rid of Adobe software leftovers.

Exmoor Horn Sheep
Terri Waters
Photograph - Photograph
The Exmoor Horn Sheep originates from the high hills of Exmoor National Park, one of England's most beautiful and remote natural landscapes.
Exmoor Horns are descendants of sheep that have been on the moor for several hundred years. They are very hardy and this one was very friendly.

The release of the long-awaited Rajinikanth starrer "Kochadaiyaan" has been postponed yet again. The new release date, according sources very close to the project, is May 1.
After many delays, the film had been "finally" announced for release April 11 alongside the Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Hindi entertainer "Bhootnaath Returns". But now it seems the Big B would have to go it alone on that Friday.
"Despite our very best efforts, we're just not ready. We need two more weeks and we are not willing to speed up the post-production just because we have been missing other deadlines in the past," said a source.
The film's co-producer Murali Manohar said: "We are looking at a new date. Yes, we're looking at the one mentioned by you. The censoring of 'Kochadaiiyaan' in all the various languages is not yet done."

New to NVR's, heck I'm new to CCTV. I'd like to wire my new Tiny 8 nvr to my network. I have a iMac hard wired to an Airport Extreme base station served by an Actiontec M1000 router.
I have one camera, a 2mp ir ptz (20X 2 Megapixel Infrared IP Network PTZ Security Camera)
The camera has power and one Cat 5e cable in the camera running about 150 ft. back to a closet where my router and Airport Extreme live. My NVR is next to my iMac and about 6ft. from the router and Airport Extreme.
What is the proper configuration for the cables before I start messing with the software?
(What do I plug in where?)
The NVR and camera come with the IP address 192.168.1.108. You need to find out what your network range is setup at first. Also find out what the action tech is range is too. You may want to connect to action tech instead of airport if it is set to a 192.168.1.1-254 range.

McKee SA, Weinberger AH, Harrison EL, Coppola S, George TP. Effects of the nicotinic receptor antagonist mecamylamine on ad-lib smoking behavior, topography, and nicotine levels in smokers with and without schizophrenia: a preliminary study. Schizophr Res 115: 317-324
ABSTRACT Individuals with schizophrenia have higher plasma nicotine levels in comparison to non-psychiatric smokers, even when differences in smoking are equated. This difference may be related to how intensely cigarettes are smoked but this has not been well studied. Mecamylamine (MEC), a non-competitive nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) antagonist, which has been shown to increase ad-lib smoking and to affect smoking topography, was used in the current study as a pharmacological probe to increase our understanding of smoking behavior, smoking topography, and resulting nicotine levels in smokers with schizophrenia. This preliminary study used a within-subject, placebo-controlled design in smokers with schizophrenia (n=6) and healthy control smokers (n=8) to examine the effects of MEC (10mg/day) on ad-lib smoking behavior, topography, nicotine levels, and tobacco craving across two smoking deprivation conditions (no deprivation and 12-h deprivation). MEC, compared to placebo, increased the number of cigarettes smoked and plasma nicotine levels. MEC increased smoking intensity and resulted in greater plasma nicotine levels in smokers with schizophrenia compared to controls, although these results were not consistent across deprivation conditions. MEC also increased tobacco craving in smokers with schizophrenia but not in control smokers. Our results suggest that antagonism of high-affinity nAChRs in smokers with schizophrenia may prompt compensatory smoking, increasing the intensity of smoking and nicotine exposure without alleviating craving. Further work is needed to assess whether nicotine levels are directly mediated by how intensely the cigarettes are smoked, and to confirm whether this effect is more pronounced in smokers with schizophrenia.

- "In that regard, it has been proposed that the high affinity antagonism to nicotine and acetylcholine receptors in schizophrenic smokers could induce a more intense cigarette smoking. Nevertheless, the metabolic deficit in brain neurons associated to schizophrenia (insufficient expression and/ or low transport/receptors efficacy) results in a higher smoking behavior; this suggests that even when the nicotine exposure augments, the need for smoking does not decrease (McKee et al. 2009, Mexal et al. 2010). The number of alpha-7 neuronal nicotine receptor in the brain of schizophrenic smokers (post mortem analysis) is low; nevertheless, when comparing schizophrenic smokers versus schizophrenic non-smokers, an increase of alpha-7 neuronal nicotine receptor is observed among the smokers, suggesting that smoking induces genetic changes (Mexal et al. 2010). "
Article: CIGARETTE SMOKING IN SCHIZOPHRENIC PATIENTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY TREATED IN A MEXICAN HOSPITAL[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Objective: tobacco smoking is the most commonly substance abused in psychiatric patients; among them, patients with schizophrenia are the highest abusers. Smoking is related to a decrease in the quality life and life expectancy, as well as interacting with psychotropic drugs. In Mexico, there is not basic descriptive knowledge about the main variables related to cigarette smoking in psychiatric population. The aim of this study was to know the relation among variables (beginning and course of the disease, use of other drugs and times of hospitalization among others) and cigarette smoking in a Mexican population of hospitalized schizophrenic patients. Method: The relation between the main variables and smoking were evaluated in a Mexican population of schizophrenic patients while hospitalized. A casuistic sampling was performed in 96 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and they were divided into three groups: 1) non-smokers, 2) ex-smokers and 3) smokers; according to their score on the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence. Results: The results showed that hospitalized schizophrenic patients smoke 2.7 times more than the general population. Most of these patients showed moderate to high dependence of nicotine, as well as a higher risk for other drugs abuse (marihuana mainly). Most patients started smoking before the first positive symptoms of schizophrenia appeared, and their symptoms started at an earlier age than in patients without a smoking background. Conclusions: Similar studies will allow deepening into specific aspects that modify and or improve the prescribed treatments for each psychiatric patient in hospital settings.Clinical Neuropsychiatry 01/2015; 12(3):51-56.

- "Apart from mecamylamine (Marx et al., 2000; McKee et al., 2009; Rose et al., 2001, 2003), these considered the effects of bupropion, a dopamine re-uptake inhibitor (Cousins et al., 2001; Hatsukami et al., 2004; Hussain et al., 2010) and amphetamine, a dopamine re-uptake inhibitor (Cousins et al., 2001). Acute administration of mecamylamine led to an increase in smoking intensity, both in terms of CPD and puff volume (Marx et al., 2000; McKee et al., 2009; Rose et al., 2001, 2003), whereas chronic mecamylamine administration leads to decreased number of cigarettes smoked daily and expired air carbon monoxide , presumably through an extinction mechanism (Rose et al., 1998). Bupropion, a smoking cessation drug, was administered to smokers not motivated to quit smoking. "
ABSTRACT: The extent of compensation when switching to lower yield cigarettes is important for assessing risk of reduced yield products. Both completeness of and reasons for compensation are judged differently in the scientific and health community. We quantified compensation in a meta-analysis of suitable cross-sectional and brand-switching studies. For each dataset, we derived a compensation index (CI), 1 indicating complete and 0 no compensation. Meta-analyses provided overall estimates. We also reviewed evidence on compensation for nicotine and other factors. The unweighted mean CI (95% confidence interval) was 0.628 (0.513-0.742) from 38 estimates from 26 cross-sectional studies, and 0.723 (0.651-0.796) from 23 estimates from 19 brand-switching studies. Inverse-variance weighted estimates were 0.781 (0.720-0.842) and 0.744 (0.682-0.806). Brand-switching data indicate smokers compensate more completely over a narrower yield range. Smokers predominantly compensate by changing puffing volume, and little by changing cigarette consumption. The findings support compensation for nicotine, but other factors may also be relevant. Further investigation is needed using larger studies and different approaches to elucidate their role. We conclude that smokers switching to lower-yield cigarettes only partially compensate. Pharmacological nicotine effects are important, but other factors, including cigarette draw resistance, sensory effects of nicotine and conditioned stimuli may also contribute.Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology 09/2014; 70(3).

- "After 9 weeks, improvements in some cognitive tasks were seen, with a reduction in smoking also apparent without adverse psychiatric consequences. A preliminary study of mecamylamine (a nicotinic receptor antagonist) found that it increased the number of cigarettes smoked (McKee et al., 2009) (IIb). "

ABSTRACT: The British Association for Psychopharmacology guidelines for the treatment of substance abuse, harmful use, addiction and comorbidity with psychiatric disorders primarily focus on their pharmacological management. They are based explicitly on the available evidence and presented as recommendations to aid clinical decision making for practitioners alongside a detailed review of the evidence. A consensus meeting, involving experts in the treatment of these disorders, reviewed key areas and considered the strength of the evidence and clinical implications. The guidelines were drawn up after feedback from participants. The guidelines primarily cover the pharmacological management of withdrawal, short- and long-term substitution, maintenance of abstinence and prevention of complications, where appropriate, for substance abuse or harmful use or addiction as well management in pregnancy, comorbidity with psychiatric disorders and in younger and older people.Journal of Psychopharmacology 05/2012; 26(7):899-952.

€3 million research funding comes to Geosciences in NUI Galway
Friday, 6 July 2007
The Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences (EOS) at NUI Galway received a huge boost yesterday when it was awarded more than €3 million to expand its research capability into coastal and marine environment science by Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources of Ireland, Mr Eamon Ryan T.D. The Griffith Geoscience Research Awards aim to develop Irish research capacity to support energy, environment, marine and infrastructural aspects of the Government's National Development Plan (NDP). The largest of the 8 awards was given to a mixture of teaching and research staff in the newly-formed Department of Earth and Ocean Sciences and the Environmental Change Institute in NUI Galway. Dr. Colin Brown, Project Manager, commented that: "The Griffith Award will provide us with 3 additional research staff, 6 post-graduate students and funding for 16 undergraduate projects that we need so we can get to grips with the NDP priorities which affect us on the west coast of Ireland. We're delighted because the award will strengthen our links with the Geological Survey of Ireland who are managing the Griffith scheme and because it's a vote of confidence in the way our research and under-graduate teaching has been re-aligned to 21st century national priorities". Dr Brown explained: "4 or 5 years ago we recruited staff whose expertise is in the science of marine and terrestrial environments, necessary to understand, for example, how to protect surface and ground-water quality, develop strategies to cope with climate-driven sea-level rise, secure indigenous sources of energy and manage offshore seabed mineral and biological resources". He added, 'One project in the research programme will establish the chemistry and pathways connecting water flows, particularly those underground, between limestone areas in Galway and Clare with coastal waters. The outcome will help to understand the effects on sensitive coastal ecosystems and provide the basis for sustainable management of the coastal zone. "Another project will use data collected by the Geological Survey of Ireland and others to understand the composition and transport of seabed sediments. This is important for offshore engineering, dredging, locating routes for telecom cables or oil and gas pipelines and construction of wind farms. Surprisingly, it's even important for estimating marine biodiversity and establishing protected areas for fisheries management". Professor S. Gerard Jennings, Director of the Environmental Change Institute, NUI Galway, which is managing the research programme said, "This is exactly the type of investment we need to enhance facilities and infrastructure in environmental science in the West of Ireland. It should be a significant impetus in attracting students and researchers to the field of Geoscience in the region". ENDS

Ballymun Students Graduate from NUI Galway Law Course
Friday, 6 July 2007
Pictured at the Ballymun Civic Center Dublin on 6th July 2007 was the presentation of Certificates of Attendance to a group of Ballymun based Students who participated in an NUI Galway Law Course through an interactive video link. The presentations were made by Mr. Pat Carey T.D. Minister for State at the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht. Pictured left to right were Veronica McDonald, student, Mr. Pat Carey T.D. Minister for State at the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht, Dr. Padraic Kenna Faculty of Law NUI Galway and Karen Shannon student Mr Pat Carey T.D, Minister for State at the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs will present a group of Ballymun-based students, who participated in an NUI Galway law course through an interactive video link, with Certificates of Attendance on Friday, 9 July 2007, at the Ballymun Civic Centre, Dublin. The Housing Law & Policy course – the first of its kind in Ireland, was developed and presented by Dr. Padraic Kenna of the Faculty of Law, NUI Galway in conjunction with the Ballymun Community Law Centre. The lectures were videolinked in real time to community volunteers, welfare staff, local authority tenants and their representatives, and other interested parties living in Ballymun. Over 12 weeks, the Ballymun group gathered in the Council Chamber Civic Offices to link via video with some 60 Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Civil Law students at NUI Galway for the interactive weekly classes. Dr Padraic Kenna, law lecturer at NUI Galway is the author of the definitive work Housing Law and Policy in Ireland. According to Dr Kenna; "An innovative use of the latest technology has allowed NUI Galway to reach out into the heart of a Dublin community where housing law and policies have had such an impact". The course covered the traditional housing and property law areas, such as mortgages and conveyancing, as well as social housing and modern approaches to social inclusion in housing. There was also a focus on preparing participants for active input into the forthcoming Housing Bill. This innovative link-up was facilitated by NUI Galway's Community Knowledge Initiative, which promotes civic engagement among academics, students and the wider community. Since its inception, the Ballymun Community Law Centre has consistently sought to empower the residents and community workers of Ballymun. BCLC Solicitor Frank Murphy, a law graduate of NUI, Galway, described the opportunity to tap into NUI Galway's expertise in the area of housing law as "a unique opportunity". "Participants came from throughout the Ballymun area and the interchange between the students, tenants and Dr Kenna was truly enlightening. On the last night all the students and tenants presented their own papers over the video link and this proved a wonderful culmination of the excellent course," he said. "I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr Kenna for his pioneering work in video-linking his course to us here in Ballymun. The law can only be considered our law if the people are actively involved in it and Dr Kenna is leading the way in making it our law by providing such magnificent access to legal education." Plans are under way to continue the collaboration between NUI Galway and the Ballymun Community Law Centre to offer the interactive course next year. ENDS

NUI Galway confer graduates with Clinical Psychology Doctoral degrees
Tuesday, 3 July 2007
Pictured at their recent conferring ceremony are graduates of NUI Galway's first Clinical Psychology Doctoral degree programme. Back row left to right: Judith McBrinn, Blackrock, Dublin; Samira Hayes, Killarney; Eoin Ryan, Newcastle Galway; Marie Claire Lagendijk, Roscam, Galway. Front Row l-r: Hazel Moore, Kingston, Galway; Elaine Curran, University Road, Galway; Treasa Ní Uiginn, Castleknock, Dublin; Claire Hogan, Blackrock, Dublin; Clare Thynne, Cappagh Road, Galway and Joanne Byrne, Culmore Rd, Derry. NUI Galway has conferred 10 graduates with the Doctor of Psychological Science in Clinical Psychology, the first course of its kind at the University, which is addressing the current shortage of clinical psychologists in the Irish healthcare system. Accredited by the Psychological Society of Ireland, the three-year, full-time professional training programme enables graduates to work as clinical psychologists in the health service, and is one of four programmes nationally. Course Director, Dr Brian McGuire said: "The course at NUI Galway is making an important contribution to health care in Ireland by training high quality clinical psychologists to provide much-needed services in hospitals and the community. This is a proud moment for the trainees, the course team and our partners in the health service". All trainees are sponsored by the health service and related health agencies for the duration of their training. The programme involves coursework, clinical placements and a research thesis and following completion, graduates work in a range of settings such as adult and child mental health services, community care, intellectual disability services and other specialized services. The partnership approach to the training course will be confirmed later this year with the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement between NUI Galway and the HSE. Mr Pat Brosnan, Health Services Executive, said clinical psychologists are required to provide therapeutic interventions across all aspects of the health sector, including community and acute hospital settings. "In recent years, the HSE, recognising the need for greater capacity in relation to the provision of psychological interventions, has initiated a more systematic and coordinated approach to post graduate training in clinical psychology. Currently, this approach is being further consolidated and expanded in partnership with four national universities; NUI Galway, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin, and the University of Limerick. "It is anticipated that this partnership initiative will facilitate an annual output of clinical psychologists to meet current and future demands within the health sector." ENDS

Health officials debate the value of promoting health as a public good
Monday, 2 July 2007
The promotion and maintenance of population health is the focus of the 11th annual Health Promotion Conference, organised by the Health Promotion Research Centre, NUI Galway in collaboration with the HSE Population Health and the Health Promotion Policy Unit, and the Department of Health and Children, at NUI Galway from 5 - 6 July, 2007. The Building Capacity for Evidence-based Health Promotion conference will address the evidence of Health Promotion effectiveness and its translation into policy and practice. The promotion and maintenance of population health is now regarded as being central to social and economic development in most developed countries. Despite the existence of a substantial body of knowledge of effective health promotion interventions that meets internally recognised standards, it is not routinely used to inform health policy. Keynote presentations from international and national speakers, together with workshops and symposia, will be held over the two day event. "The challenge of ensuring that our health promotion policy and practice is based on best available evidence is critical in realising the government's health improvement goals in Ireland" says Margaret Barry, Professor of Health Promotion and Public Health at NUI Galway. The conference will consider capacity building in relation to health promotion evaluation, including demonstrating value for money, and how the health promotion evidence base can be applied in practice. Among the key speakers at the conference include; Dr Viv Speller, Health Development Consultant, UK; Dr Stephan Van Den Broucke, Public Health Executive Agency, European Commission; and Professor Jane Springett, Director of the Institute for Health, John Moores University. "Evidence on the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of health promotion actions must be translated into guidance for policy and practice, clearly communicated and applied," says UK consultant Dr Viv Speller. The conference includes a symposium on Making the Economic Case for Promoting Health, which will be chaired by Mr. Michael Scanlan, Secretary General of the Department of Health and Children. Among those on the panel include; Professor Martin Knapp, London School of Economics and Professor of Health Economics at the Institute of Psychiatry, King s College London; Ms. Janine Hale, Principal Research Officer (Health Economics), Public Health & Health Professions Department, Welsh Assembly and Professor Eamon O'Shea, Department of Economics, NUI, Galway.

NUI Galway offer Diploma in Translation in Kerry Gaeltacht
Monday, 27 August 2007
Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, National University of Ireland, Galway is offering a part-time diploma in translation studies this forthcoming academic year. The course will be held from mid September in the Corca Dhuibhne Gaeltacht, An Daingean, Co. Kerry. This is a two-year, part-time course and will take place one night a week.

Participants will also get an insight into the translation business, as well as the software and electronic tools available to the Irish language translator. The course is designed to give practical experience of translating the types of texts most commonly translated into Irish. Eoin Ó Droighneáin, Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta, said: "Due to the recent expansion of translation in Ireland as a field of education, business and employment, there is an onus on professional translators to ensure their work reaches a very high standard. Achieving a recognised qualification and acquiring sound translation skills is now, therefore, more important than ever". Acadamh na hOllscolaíochta Gaeilge, NUI Galway is also offering a postgraduate course – Dioplóma Iarchéime / M.A. i Léann an Aistriúcháin (Postgraduate Diploma / M.A. in Translation Studies).

Monday, 27 August 2007
Tom McEnaney, Business Editor with the Irish Independent, is to address the new NUI Galway Skillnets Network at their launch event on Tuesday, 11 September, 2007.

I have written two recursive functions in python.
The first one takes parameters, modifies them and returns a value.
def Similarity(string, sstring1, index):
if condition1:
return index
if condition2:
#do something
Similarity(string, string1, index)
The second one takes parameters and performs operations on a global variable.
def getData(i, value):
global dataList
if condition:
return list(suffixList)
#do something
getData(i, value)
These functions work perfectly and do the exact computations I need but always return a noneType. I havent been able to figure out why.
