Eric Green's Recommendations
BIOL 2320 Human Anatomy
I thought that he was a really good teacher. His enthusiasm for the subject made the class really interesting. I liked that you could print out the notes for his lecture and then just follow along. His tests were based on the information covered in his notes.
Eric Green
Eric is a very good teacher. His lectures are interesting and his notes make perfect sense. He provides an outline of all the notes he gives in class, plus he ONLY tests on the material on his outlines. Excellent class. Anatomy 2320
BIOL 2420 Human Physiology
Only tests on what he covers in class and writes on the board. You can't ask for more then that from a professor If you take good notes, and study them along with the chapters (and focus on what the notes cover for that chapter) you will do great. Don't read into the chapter on what he didn't cover in the notes, it won't do you any good and you will waste your time.He gives a VERY easy 20 point extra credit assignment. 4 tests worth 100, and a final. Do the math, that 20 points is very helpful.
BIOL 2420 Human Physiology
He is the best teacher for anything in biology. If you have never understood biology before he is the one to take you will get the whole picture very well! His tests are strictly from his notes (which he creates for you now). he can even be funny. If you go to class everyday and study your notes you should pass. Class isn't boring.
BIOL 2420 Human Physiology
he will only test to the things he taught.he is considerate.
BIOL 2420 Human Physiology
Eric, is a still a new teacher and developing his teaching styles. He writes most everything you need to know on the board, I found it most helpful to tape his lectures to pick up the small details that is easy to miss in a long lecture. I spent 2+ hrs per lecture studying for his test. Erics test are not easy and a little tricky so watch for slight wording changes.
BIOL 2320 Human Anatomy
For the amount of material you must know for this course he is very good at explaining things. He posts chapter notes on the intrnet so you can easily follow along during lecture. Also, he only tests you on things we cover in class. Now im not at all saying this class is easy, but if you study it is possible to get a good grade.
BIOL 2320 Human Anatomy
he was very very enthusiastic!! he made a really hard class a lot easier and made it fun to learn. he's hillarious. if you take his class you will find it a lot easier to learn from him.-no homework
BIOL 2320 Human Anatomy
Eric explains things very well. He does not go into so much detail that you are overwhelmed with information. He only tests you on what he covers in class. He follows the order of the book and does not skip around. He is very fair.
BIOL 1010 Intro to Biology
Explains Material very well.
BIOL 2420 Human Physiology
I think Eric is a very good teacher and is very into teaching and wanting you to understand and learn. He was very willing to work with you if you needed help. He also understood that this was a tough subject and tried to relate to you in a way that you would understand it and enjoy it!

- carbon C 11 erlotinib hydrochloride
The hydrochloride salt form of the quinazoline derivative erlotinib labeled with the positron-emitting isotope carbon C 11, with potential use in imaging. Competing with adenosine triphosphate, erlotinib reversibly binds to the intracellular catalytic tyrosine kinase domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Following exposure to this agent, EGFR expression status can be determined and EGFR overexpressing tumor cells can be visualized using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. This may be useful in determining the tumor cell response to a particular EGFR kinase inhibitor in individual patients. EGFR, a receptor tyrosine kinase, is overexpressed in numerous cancer cell types, and plays a significant role in tumor cell progression.
Check for active clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
Synonym: C11-erlotinib

The Postal Service filed an updated list of possible office closures today with the Postal Regulatory Commission. (AFP)
The U.S. Postal Service's list of possible post office closures continues to shrink, with just 162 facilities still under consideration, according to an agency spokesman.
The Postal Service filed an updated list today with the Postal Regulatory Commission, the independent body that regulates postal operations. The http://www.usps.com/communications/newsroom/stationbranchop.pdf">new list contains six fewer names than http://blogs.federaltimes.com/federal-times-blog/2009/12/16/usps-fewer-than-170-post-offices-on-closure-list/">the previous list, which was released in December.
More than 3,300 facilities nearly 10 percent of the postal network were under consideration http://www.federaltimes.com/article/20090803/DEPARTMENTS02/908030306/1026/DEPARTMENTS02">when the closure process started last summer. The proposed closures have received a lot of criticism from members of Congress and from postal unions, who view the cuts as undermining the Postal Service's competitive advantage.
Postal officials say most of the cuts target urban and suburban areas, where there are too many post offices in close proximity to one another.
"We will continue to provide easy access, but changes to our retail network are essential to our ability to continue to provide … fairly priced postal services," said Dean Granholm, the Postal Service's vice president for delivery and post office operations, in a written statement.
Most of the proposed closures are located in a few states: 25 in Ohio, 24 in California, 14 in Florida and 11 in New York.
The Postal Service says the list is subject to more changes over the next few months. The agency isn't sure when it expects to issue a final list, though it hopes to begin closing post offices this winter.

Legco president-in-waiting, Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong grandee Jasper Tsang Yok-shing, was asked by a radio phone-in caller yesterday: "Are you a member of the Chinese Communist Party?"
Simple enough question right? Wrong.
Tsang, who is up against the Democratic Party's Fred Li Wah-ming in the race for council president, refused to answer.
"Long Hair" Leung Kwok-hung asked him the same question in Legco on Monday but, again, Tsang studiously avoided a straight answer.
"Hong Kong people have a negative impression on Chinese communism. I'd better not bring it into Legco nor start a discussion on it," Tsang said.

The Watergate scandal was a political scandal that occurred in the United States in the 1970s as a result of the June 17, 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C., and the Nixon administration's attempted cover-up of its involvement. The scandal eventually led to the resignation of Richard Nixon, the President of the United States, on August 9, 1974—the only resignation of a U.S. president to date. The scandal also resulted in the indictment, trial, conviction, and incarceration of 43 people, dozens of whom were Nixon's top administration officials.

Lucifer loves Rammstein.
Lucifer is a parrot – a Rainbow Lorikeet.
Enjoy his crazy antics as he sings along and bangs his head to the wonderful Du Hast by Rammstein.
My first mobile phone was a Nokia 3210, it was kindly given to me by an employer back in 1999.
Mine was blue:
I had resisted being on call 24×7 for about seven years prior.
Once I became ensnared in the mobile phone trap however (Snake was a wonderful game!), I began to wonder how I had ever existed without one.
I could converse with people without actually conversing with them, text was quite wonderful! Being as antisocial as I am, I saw it as the best invention since ICQ, and scrolly greets on C64 demos prior.
The Nokia 3210 was a solid phone – great reception, wonderful buttons, a pleasure to use. I dropped it into a toilet, accidentally trod on it several times, treated it rather poorly, and yet it refused to stop loving me.
Why then, when it died, did I even contemplate the Motorola V60 when some cretin stole my 3210?
The only reason was because it was a clamshell and they were "new and exciting".
Here I was, someone who swore to never hold one of these things in my hand, scouring the place for the most advanced, coolest looking phone around.
Worst phone I have ever owned (second only to the iPhone 3GS) – I returned it no less than five or six times to be repaired after it failed to pick up a signal on day one and ended up biting the bullet and writing off the couple of hundred that I dropped on it and going back to Nokia.
The Nokia 8250 was what I chose.
Another solid phone from Nokia. This one lasted me a while. The thing that I loved about it was the menu and call button layout – it just worked so well, it was so Nokia.
I had come to associate things "just working" with Nokia and loved their menu system, their keypad layout – they had it all working so well.
My next five or six phones were all Nokias.
One of them was the flip phone – the 7270:
It remains one of my favourite phones. Sadly, someone stole it off me as I slept on a flight from Sydney to Adelaide, so I had to purchase a new phone when I got there and it wasn't the same model.
Nokia copped a lot of criticism for not pandering to the market and making everything in the clamshell mould when the consumers dictated that clamshell was the in thing.
These days, if twelve year old girls are to be believed, short shorts that expose ones labia are the in thing:
Nokia were right not to rush toward the clamshell market, even though it cost them dearly in terms of sales.
Steve Jobs has proven that the customer is always wrong – you can get away with selling the moronic members of the great unwashed an unnecessary piece of detritus if you make them think that it is somehow cool.
Sadly, Nokia haven't been as successful in convincing the consumer that their product is not only cool, but without doubt, manufactured using best practice.
I went through a few more Nokia phones (usually doing silly things to kill them, like kicking back in a hot bath for a few hours and calling erstwhile friends for a chat whilst sipping on various alcoholic beverages prior to dropping the phone in the water) before I realised that they had started to really drop the ball.
By 2007-08, Symbian had become quite stagnant.
Windows Mobile 6.5 was really emerging as the strong contender and the threat of the iPhone was imminent.
For some reason, Nokia ignored this.
My next phone was the HTC Touch running Windows 6.something:
This was a bloody good phone.
The handwriting recognition was beyond anything I had experienced before.
Whilst I missed the ability to "blind text" – being able to text without looking at my phone as I dashed through the busy streets of Melbourne – I began to really love this phone.
The stylus however, marked the screen terribly and soon it looked like vandals had begun attacking it overnight.
Still, it was an impressive piece of hardware and I really enjoyed the Windows Mobile experience.
For some stupid reason, when I lost that phone (I have a habit of losing phones, as you may have guessed), I decided to try the iPhone 3Gs.
The iPhone 3Gs is, without doubt, the second worst phone I have ever owned.
I shan't go into it here, as it would take me several more pages to tell you why. Just take my advice and never buy an iPhone.
When my iPhone died (pretty swiftly) I thought I might try Android.
Google aren't evil after all.
A couple of Android phones later, I settled on the HTC Desire.
Initially, I was impressed.
Of course, being a geek, I rooted it and fiddled around with it, and for two years (the longest I have ever had a phone), I really enjoyed it. I pimped 'droid to everyone and recommended the HTC 'droid range to all and sundry.
Sadly, I now have to withdraw my support for the Android platform, and for Google.
Several weeks ago, when google changed their privacy policy, it was the final straw for me.
I had been a fan of Google since 1996.
Prior to that, I had been a big fan of Altavista – an honest search engine that has sadly perished since being purchased by Yahoo. Babelfish was brilliant.
Altavista were the pioneers of search and I believe that Google stole from them.
Still, I became a massive Android fan until I discovered that everything that I did with my Android phone was being tracked by Google.
All of my contacts were being disseminated and dissected, my activity was being monitored and I was receiving suggestions on alternate, non linked Google accounts that I had for business, that I should connect up with people from my personal life.
This concerned me.
What concerned me most was when a professional contact somehow obtained my personal email address due to Google making it available to him.
I then decided that it was time to move away from Google and am in the process of moving all of my email accounts away from them also.
Some information on Google's decision to start tracking everything that you do (in case they weren't already doing it surreptitiously anyway can be found here)
I couldn't go back to the iPhone. I use a Mac, that is enough.
I couldn't stay with Android.
Symbian is dead in the water, as is MeeGo.
Should I consider Windows Phone?
The answer is a resounding fucking YES.
I had a play with Windows Phone 7.5 (mango) in a shop quite by accident.
I had been supposed to meet my employer for a meeting but he had neglected to mention to me that he would be in the UK, despite assuring me that our meeting was most important.
When he didn't turn up, after waiting for an hour or two, I checked out a few mobile phone stores.
I had a play with the Nokia Lumia 800
I was highly impressed.
The Windows Phone 7.5 interface was so refreshing.
It wasn't the bland sameness of iOS, nor was it the poor attempt to replicate iOS that Android provides.
It was new, it was innovative, it was refreshing.
I was sold on the spot.
I went straight to my local Telstra Store and purchased one outright.
Sadly, a few hours later, it died, though for the brief time that I held it in my hand, I knew that Windows Mobile will be the future of mobile operating systems. I am eagerly awaiting my replacement as my local Telstra store had none in stock.
It is intuitive, fast, beautiful, and comes with the many moons of experience that Microsoft have in terms of refining the user experience.
Whilst I have not used a Windows computer for a long time, if they get Windows 8 right in the same manner that they have blitzed it with Windows Mobile 7, then I am going to consider coming back.
Nokia have made the right decision, betting the house on Windows Phone – combined with their experience in producing the hardiest, most beautiful mobile phones, and the fantastic job that Microsoft have done on Windows Phone, come 2015, Windows Phone will be the dominant OS in the mobile space.
Great work Microsoft – and thank you for your honesty when it comes to what you do with the data collected on a Windows Phone mobile.
Google – take note, Microsoft have usurped your "do no evil" crown.
Put simply, Nokia and Microsoft will be the next true powers in the mobile OS/phone sphere.
Since having lost our beloved Alexandrine parrot, Icari; kindness has poured in from all quarters.
It has been quite refreshing and has realigned my opinion of humanity somewhat.
The two most potent examples of said kindness have come from some rather unexpected sources; two big businesses.
"Big business" is oft maligned, though the altruism shown by both of these companies, neither of whom have anything to gain as a result of their selfless displays, shows that perhaps the fury directed toward large corporations by the great unwashed may be misplaced.
Sophos; the people who invented antivirus, and who provide the best free antivirus protection for Mac and Windows, not to mention some exceptional mobile security products, heard about our loss and wrote a beautiful piece on their Naked Security website that involves some of the best use of metaphors that I have ever seen.
The author, Paul Ducklin, an Sophos' head of technology, has quite a way with words. Even if you aren't into computer security, his articles are well worth reading – they have a unique way of removing the obfuscation and obscurantism oft indulged in by IT professionals.
In other words, his words appeal to geeks, nerds and technophobes alike.
You can get an idea of what I am talking about at:
The other business that has gone above and beyond the thermals, is News Ltd.
Scott Howlett, a journalist with the Northern District Times, saw the posters that we had plastered around the local area and wrote a beautiful piece on our missing Icari.
We have had a great deal of people contacting us as a result of the article that Scott put together and we can't thank him and his team enough.
Thank you, Paul, Sophos, Scott and News Ltd – whilst we have yet to find Icari, your efforts to assist us have been quite the tonic during our weeks of despair.

|Chitinous components of the cell wall of Fusarium oxysporum.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 1282049 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The cell wall of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici was digested with chitinase to analyze the structure of its chitinous components. In spite of a similar acetylation degree of the cell wall components to that of 25-35% acetylated chitosan, only N-acetylglucosamine disaccharide [(GlcNAc)2] was obtained from chitinase hydrolyzate of the fungal cell wall by CM-Sephadex C-25 column chromatography, while (GlcNAc)2 and several types of deacetylated chitooligosaccharides were separated from that of 25-35% acetylated chitosan. The results indicate that N-acetylglucosamine residues in the polysaccharide chains of the fungal cell wall are most likely condensed into some region, while acetylated residues are more scattered in 25-35% acetylated chitosan.

PURskin fine skincare and waxing is a new spa in Temecula California that is focused on medically oriented beauty products and serving women (and men) who want to look and feel great every day. I offer cosmeceutical fine Skin care and Body Waxing. PURskin Spa is located within the SOLA Salons at 32467 Temecula Parkway, Suite 12.
Would you like to have spectacular Brows and Lashes? If you answered yes then PURskin Spa is for you.
If you are currently shaving as your method of hair removal, STOP. The area you want to wax MUST have at least 2 weeks growth! Sorry ladies. ¼ inch.
If you have not shaved and the hair is longer than and inch you may trim, but be careful not to trim it too short.
Please read the following recommendations. Your therapist will have taken great care to protect your skin during your appointment, but it's important that you continue to look after the waxed area for the next few days to prevent any unwanted side effects.
Please Note: slight soreness, small bumps, and redness are common and perfectly normal temporary reactions. Particularly if this is your first wax. These symptoms should subside over the next 24 to 48 hours. If you experience persistent redness or irritation, or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Face and Body Waxing
Keep the waxed area clean, and avoid heat and friction during the next 24 to 48 hours. This means:
No hot bathes or showers ( washing with cool or luke warm water is fine)
No saunas, hot tubs or steam rooms.
No tanning (sunbathing, sunbeds, or fake tans).
No sports, gym work or other exercise.
No sexual activity(for Brazilians).
Avoid touching the waxed skin with unwashed hands.
Wear clean, loose fitting clothing.
Avoid swimming.
Do not apply deodorants, body sprays, powders, lotions or other products to the area, other than those recommended by your therapist.
Use of TEND SKIN, PLUMB GENIUS, or NO BUMP may be started after 24 hours. Remember there will be a sting to these products. This is normal.
Preventing Ingrown Hairs
Ingrown hairs occur when a new hair can't break through the surface of the skin and curls back into the pore instead, often resulting in a spot. Shaving and waxing can exacerbate the situation.
Starting a few days after your appointment, gently scrub the skin 3 to 5 times a week using a loofah or exfoliating mitt. Also moisturize the area every day, which will keep the skin supple and help new hairs break through.
TEND SKIN, PLUMB GENIUS, and NO BUMP are my personal favorites for preventing and treating ingrown hairs. It works by chemically exfoliating the skin to free the hair and soothe irritation from waxing and shaving, anywhere on the body.
What to expect, and your next appointment
Most people start to notice a small amount of re-growth after a week or so, but it may take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives the best results. Hair needs to be at least ¼ inch long before it can be successfully removed by waxing; please do not shave the area between your appointments as this messes with the natural growth cycles, and you'll be left with stubble. To maintain your smooth appearance, we recommend regular waxings every 4 to 5 weeks.
The health benefits of a facial far outweigh the beauty benefits. A facial is more than meets the eye. A great facial produces the healthy glow that you want. Not only that but with regular facials there is a regulation of the immune system, detoxification, reduction of fluid build-up, exfoliation, and of course great stress relief.
Get a PURskin Signature facial and you will delight in this revitalizing wonderful experience that is personalized every step of the way. Your individual well being is my top priority. Each facial includes a skin analysis, gentle cleansing, exfoliation, a facial massage, steam treatment, extractions, a customized mask, and a light hand and arm massage.

The aroma of freshly baked shad will once again permeate the streets of downtown Bethlehem when the 20th annual Shad Festival is held in the city's historical district on Saturday, May 10 from 12-5 p.m. There is no rain date.
This year's festival will take visitors back in time to the days when shad were a staple in the spring diet of Bethlehem's Moravian settlers. Nearly 1,000 dinners will be prepared for shad fanciers who travel to the festival from around Pennsylvania and neighboring states. Since its inception in 1978, more then 12,500 people have enjoyed planked shad at the festival, making it the biggest fish bake in Pennsylvania by far.
Tickets for the traditional dinner of baked shad, baked potato, watercress salad, freshly baked bread and cool mint tea are priced at $10 per person. This year, a limited number of dinners - 25 - will feature boneless shad and shad roe. Those meals are available on a first-come, first-served basis at a cost of $18 per person. Dinners can be reserved by sending a check or money order, payable to Historic Bethlehem Inc., 459 Old York Rd., Bethlehem, PA 18018. Additional information can be obtained by calling HBI at (610) 691-5300.
The festival will feature a variety of exhibits and demonstrations and activities for children. Nearly 100 volunteers are needed to perform a long list of jobs. Persons interested in volunteering should contact Bernetta Scholl, 501 Magnolia Rd., Hellertown, PA 18055; (610) 838-0132. It's not too early to volunteer!
The Shad Festival is unique in many ways; one of them is the way fish are gathered for the feast. Yet each year, it is a stressful adventure that never allows festival organizers to rest.
The shad that are served to the 1,000 diners and volunteers come from the Delaware River. They are caught on hook and line and are not purchased at a fish market. That is the way the acquisition of fish has been handled every year but two when river conditions prevented fishermen from supplying fish.
Last year there were only four shad left on the planks at the end of the day. If the festival had been a sellout (600+ dinners were sold), the DRSFA and HBI would have had very red faces.
The solution is simple: We need more of our members donating fish. We need 450 shad to supply our needs.
Here's what you can do: First, remember that we aren't asking for your entire catch. We only need a few fish from everyone to ensure success. Take the shad home, clean them, scale them and split them lengthwise along the backbone. Then wrap them in freezer paper and put them in your freezer or, if possible, deliver them to Deschler's Seafood in Bethlehem. Deschler's is a wonderful seafood store located just behind the Bethlehem Club on New St. Deschler's address is 518 Long St. (an alley) and their telephone number is (610) 867-5809.
That's not a difficult process; please help us this year. If you can't attend monthly meetings or serve on committees, you can donate fish for the festival. They're not tax-deductible, but they are insurance for a successful day.

Okay, okay, yes it's a toy, but so's my iPod (it is, in fact, my favorite toy at the moment). As long as we're going to be playing with electronics, why not make them sustainably-powered?
"Bird Electron is developing a solar iPod charger to go on limited sale from May. The unit very sensibly comes with a battery built in, meaning you can charge that during the day and plug your iPod into it overnight. At the moment it apparently takes two fine days to get a full charge, but they reckon a single day's worth should be enough to cover you for a shortish commute. Obviously it's going to take years before the electricity savings pay for the charger, but the idea here is ecology rather than economy. Man."
(thanks, Cory!)
I can't imagine the idea of "ecology" by purchasing more silicon...
It would be nice to get away from proprietary battery formats, or at least proprietary voltages. Seems unlikely though.
Ta hell with ecology, it's how to keep your tunes rollin' if you are stranded on a desert island - always take this item on plane and boat trips : )

- Poison pill could eradicate Asian carp, but at what cost?
The carp invading Minnesota up the Mississippi River could be stopped -- at least for several years.
It would only cost $60,000.
So says the man with a plan -- University of Minnesota researcher Peter Sorensen
The problem: He doesn't have the money.
And he needs it now to make his plan work.
Any donors?
"We'll take money from wherever we can get it," said Sorensen, who heads the Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center at the U's St. Paul campus. "We need to put these things in the water as soon as possible."
Those "things" are five transducers -- underwater speakers -- that Sorensen and his team want to install at Lock and Dam No. 8 on the Mississippi River near Genoa, Wis.
Bighead or silver carp, possibly both, are successfully breeding below the dam, researchers discovered last month. But there's no evidence the fish, often called Asian carp, are breeding above it in Pool 8, which extends north along the Minnesota-Wisconsin border to La Crosse, Wis.
Sorensen and his team, including doctoral student Dan Zielinski, have discovered that the carp are sensitive to -- and annoyed and deterred by -- sounds not heard by most other fish. The speakers would play those sounds just downstream of the lock, which is the carp's most likely doorway farther into Minnesota.
"Our goal is to design a deflector shield around the lock," Sorensen said.
Time is of the essence, he said, because bighead and silver carp swim upstream to spawn, and spawning will begin this summer.
Sorensen's traditional sources for money -- the U and the Legislature -- don't turn around funding rapidly, so Sorensen is soliciting donations, which would be handled through the University of Minnesota Foundation (giving.umn.edu).
The transducers are part of a larger plan developed by Sorensen to slow or halt the spread of the carp. The plan is based on his team's discovery of two of the carp's vulnerabilities: a sensitivity to sound and inability to swim that fast.
A carp's "hearing" is 10 to 100 times more acute than that of all native fish, except catfish, because of a rib bone that vibrates against its swim bladder, essentially turning the organ into a large eardrum. In a study of carp in a tank, Zielisnki found that by playing combinations of louder and softer low-frequency sounds -- a din similar to a boat motor -- he could both annoy and deflect the fish.
"I started researching bubble curtains for common carp, but what I found out was they were likely responding to the sound of the bubbles more than the bubbles themselves," Zielinski said.
Silver carp, known for spectacular leaps from the water when boats speed by, likely are fleeing the sound of the motor, he said.
Meanwhile, Sorensen's lab and the U worked with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to find out how fast carp can swim.
"It turns out their swimming capabilities are very normal," Sorensen said. "Similar to a walleye, but much slower than a salmon."
That meant that if the Army Corps, which operates the lock-and-dam system, could keep water flowing fast enough through the dam's gates, carp could not swim through.
Which leaves the lock. The underwater motorboat sound would protect that.
The plan might sound similar to a much pricier proposal -- $12 million to $19 million -- to build an acoustic, bubble and light barrier at the Ford Dam in St. Paul.
But the goal of that proposal, which hasn't yet been funded, was to get as close as possible to a 100-percent barrier.
"We're not saying (we expect) 100 percent (success) for our plan," Sorensen said. "We're saying maybe 90 percent, maybe better. We're just talking about a simple cheap thing that can brush them off. ... As long as they don't have the numbers to establish themselves, we've bought time. Once they establish themselves as a breeding population, we have absolutely nothing to get rid of them."
Both the underwater speakers and the changes in the dam's gate procedures need formal approval from the Army Corps, but neither would threaten navigation or the structure of the lock and dam, so the agency doesn't expect any delays, said Shannon Bauer, public affairs chief for the Army Corps' St. Paul district.
It was cost $45,000 to obtain the speakers and $15,000 to install them. By comparison, tens of millions of dollars are being spent to battle aquatic invaders that range from zebra mussels to curly leaf pondweed.
Bighead and silver carp are seen as a major threat to Minnesota's waters and the state's fishing. The fish voraciously eat plankton, the base of a water's ecology, and where they've established themselves, native fish suffer.
Lawmakers generally have supported spending money to fight aquatic invaders. For example, the state Senate this month approved a plan to give $5 million this year -- and $10 million annually after that -- to counties statewide for the battle. The provision wasn't part of the accompanying tax bill approved by the House, so it remains unclear whether it will become law.
Sen. Rod Skoe, DFL-Clearbrook, who introduced the plan, said it dovetails with Department of Natural Resources efforts to act as a central clearinghouse for programs that work. To that end, the Legacy Amendment bill moving through the Legislature contains $4 million from the Outdoor Heritage Fund for the DNR to develop and evaluate pilot projects to battle aquatic invaders.
And Sorenson's underwater speakers are actually already on track for state funding as part of an $800,000 request supported by the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources, which recommends a portion of lottery proceeds for the environment.
But that money cannot be appropriated until July 1, and U rules prohibit spending money until a grant has been approved.
"It would be another year before we got this done via the official channels," Sorensen said. "The machinery can only move so fast."
Soliciting donations is an unusual role for Sorensen, who frequently preaches that the campaign against invasive species is long-term and requires years of research.
But he said his perspective changed in March when federal scientists discovered that Asian carp had fertilized eggs downstream of Lock and Dam No. 8 near Lynxsville, Wis.
"It kind of kills me because it's not really research and we're still studying how to make sure we do as much as we can to not affect native fish," he said. "But when the news came out about the eggs, I thought about it for a while and came to the conclusion that I just needed to do something."
He went ahead and ordered the underwater speakers.
"I really need that money because they're building them on spec."

Maybe its just me, but tomorrows match between Pittsburgh and Baltimore kind of feels
Dont misunderstand: I am ecstatic that this match is taking place.

BBC Records Les Miserables 21st Birthday Concert
Editorial Staff • West End • 7 Sep 2006
The current West End cast – featuring John Owen-Jones (as Jean Valjean), Hans Peter Janssens (Javert), Jon Lee (Marius), Sophia Ragavelas (Fantine), Sabrina Aloueche (Eponine), Chris Vincent (Thénardier) and Tracie Bennett (Madame Thénardier) - and the BBC Concert Orchestra will record the concert before a live audience on Friday 15 September 2006 at the Mermaid Theatre. It will be broadcast on BBC Radio 2 on the show's actual birthday Sunday 8 October.
Once it passes its 21st birthday, Les Miserables, which is currently booking through to December 2007, will break the previous West End record, set four years ago by Andrew Lloyd Webber's Cats when it closed at the New London Theatre on its 21st birthday (See News, 8 May 2002). The landmark Royal Shakespeare Company production had its first performance on 8 October 1985 at the Barbican Theatre before transferring, care of Mackintosh, to the West End's Palace Theatre two months later. It ran at the Palace for 18 years and over 7,500 performances before moving down the road to the Queen's on 3 April 2004 (See News, 21 Nov 2003)
Based on Victor Hugo's humanitarian novel about a persecuted man in 19th-century revolutionary France, Les Miserables has a book by Alain Boublil, music by Claude-Michel Schonberg and lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer. It's directed by Trevor Nunn with John Caird and designed by John Napier.
In May 2003, the original Broadway production of Les Miserables closed following a 16-year run, but just three years later, Cameron Mackintosh is already preparing to revive the Boublil and Schonberg musical, which will reopen at New York's Broadhurst Theatre this November. Globally, Les Miserables has been seen by over 53 million people in 38 countries and 21 languages.
At the Queen's, there will also be a special celebratory finale following the Saturday evening performance on 7 October, details of which are due to be announced shortly. A limited number of tickets, priced at £20 and limited to two per person, are available to buy for the BBC recording of the concert version at 3.00pm on 15 September. They can be booked by calling 0870 950 2121.

Gifts that keep on givingNovember 28, 2007 at 9:53 am | In Holidays, How to help, Reader recommendations | 5 Comments
West Seattle holiday gifts 'n' stuff with an extra punch – plus a request for ideas from you:
POINSETTIAS TO HELP STUDENTS: Today's the deadline to get orders in for the Chief Sealth High School Band fundraising poinsettia sale; full details in our original post – we just checked and they DO have some left!
BOOKS FOR WESTSIDE BABY: This Saturday, during Hometown Holidays weekend, Square 1 Books in Jefferson Square is having a unique sale — as described on the Square One blog, "Purchase any children's book from us Dec. 1-2 for 15 percent off and we will donate the book to WestSide Baby. The books will be distributed to families in need in December."
CALENDARS FOR CANINES: Wendy Hughes-Jelen, from the High Point K-9 Club and other endeavors, has created the 2008 IGGY Ambassadors Calendar, which she describes further: "Entitled 'Personal images of the dogs we love, photographed by members of IGGY Ambassadors — Emerald City (Italian Greyhounds of the Northwest)', it is a large and elegant calendar, something to be treasured by ALL dog lovers." 16% of the price of each calendar (what's left after printing costs & the lulu.com publisher's fee) goes to "help pay for vet bills and other costs associated with the very active Northwest Italian greyhound rescue community." You can preview the calendar here; you can order it here.
NOW, A QUESTION FOR YOU: This came in as a WSB Reader Recommendation Request but relates to the topic of "gifts that keep on giving" — Adam e-mailed, "In lieu of giving presents, my wife and I have donated money which we might normally spend on presents to some of the many worthwhile charities. We are searching for recommendations for legitimate local charities for Iraq veterans and their families. Any reader suggestions?"

Here's a sentence I'm proud to write:
I'm a preschool teacher.
This is my basement, where I spend every Monday and Tuesday morning with the five most brilliant and beautiful children God ever blew breath into.
Yes, I know, yours are lovely, too
I don't know how to describe my feelings about being trusted with the privilege and responsibility of shaping childrens' hearts and minds.
I always say that I am passionate about teaching children to read because to me, it's akin to teaching someone how to take a deep breath. Because it's like teaching survival. Because reading is what saved me and still saves me every day.
Reading is what taught me to empathize and connect with myself and others.Through books I found myself and discovered that the truth would set me free. Through others' stories I learned that we are all pretty much the same, and that there's really not much to be afraid of since we're in this together. And because through reading I found God.
All that is true, but it hit me this morning, looking at these pictures, that the truest reason I love teaching is a little more selfish. I think it's because when I'm teaching, I am my favorite version of myself.
I always question my motives out there in the real world. Whenever I do, say, or write anything, altruistic or not, I wonder if I'd have done it if I knew no one would find out. I suspect a lot of what I do publicly is done for attention, acceptance, or praise…from peers, friends, competitors, family.
But when I'm with my three year old preschoolers, just the six of us, and we're examining a caterpillar, or we're finger painting a giant E together, or we're working SO DAMN HARD to make those scissors work, or we're crying together because somebody took our doll and our little hearts are broken…and I'm on my knees to make eye contact, and I'm trying to love them through their morning…I really, really like myself. I feel patient and kind and wonderful because no grown- ups are watching and I'm still being patient and kind. Which proves to me that down deep inside, there is a part of me that is real and true.
And it also proves something else to me.It's just me and God down there in the basement on Monday and Tuesday mornings. He's the only one who will see if I give up, if I snap at a student, if I ignore a struggling writer. And since I don't, since I keep trying to make Him proud, it proves to me that I believe in Him.Because if I didn't believe He was watching, I sure as heck wouldn't try so hard. And I suspect that's why I love teaching so much. That's why teaching is so sacred to me. Because being in the classroom, even more than being in a church, proves to me that my faith is real. And that makes me feel safe and whole and important. And close to God. And that is why teaching preschool is the most important thing I do all week.
It may look like I'm rolling out playdoh with my buddies, but what I'm really doing is dancing with God.
It's been said that character is what you do when noone's watching, but I think that faith is what you do when noone's watching. More to the point, faith and character, for me, are inextricably linked.
To the teachers who read this blog -Thank you. Thank you for taking care of our future, of our children, when no one is watching. You do the most challenging and sacred job in the world. I appreciate you.
Ya'll come back to Momastery for a 3 o'clock cocktale to help you through to the finish line.

|Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Makerere University
The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Makerere University brings together students and staff with a wide range of interests and backgrounds. The student population was 200 in 1997/98 and this rose to 700 in 2006 / 2007. It is anticipated that with continued development of new programmes the student population will rise to 1000 by the year 2010/2011. The staff that handles these numbers of students has expanded in the recent past. The current staff positions include Professors, Associate Professors, Senior Lecturers, Lecturers, Assistant Lecturers and Teaching Assistants.
The Faculty has maintained very good relationship with sister faculties and colleges in Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa. Many of these activities have involved exchange of external examiners, short term teaching assignments, joint supervision of postgraduate students and joint research activities. The faculty is closely involved in a NUFU funded South to North Cooperation with research activities focusing on Tuberculosis, Brucellosis and environmental toxicology. This involves veterinary schools in Zambia, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Uganda, Mozambique and the Norwegian Veterinary School. Our major objective is to create an environment that would facilitate free movement of professionals within the African continent.
Further a field, the faculty has links with leading veterinary schools in Europe and North America. These institutions have played a leading role in training our staff at postgraduate level, they have hosted our scientists on short term research visits and facilitated establishment of joint research collaboration.
This faculty is poised for greater achievements in the near future. The faculty has diversified its activities to the extent that it can no longer be called a Veterinary Faculty. We are therefore planning to become a College of Veterinary and Biomedical Sciences. These plans are already underway.
The mission of the Faculty is to provide quality human and biomedical resources, generate and disseminate knowledge in animal health and production, wildlife management through teaching, research and service for sustainable development.
The faculty aspires to be a centre of excellence for teaching, research and services in animal health and production, wildlife and biomedical sciences.

Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
What do the BHPians feel about having an ETC in Mumbai to reduce congestion at the toll gates? The cars will have prepaid cards placed inside and a reader placed in the gantry will read and debit the toll charge as you pass through. One can re-charge or top up the card as required. I believe this is a good experiment being tried out by Maharashtra Govt. and we need to support this.
Mods - Is this the right forum? I tried to start a poll but could not find the link to the poll page from this page.

This sounds like a maximalist idea. The government wants to milk public for all its worth. IMO, the idea of a prepaid monthly pass that allows people to pass as many times as needed in a month is a far better idea. Of course the government looses out if people pass multiple times in a day. But then they can always price these passes a little higher.
With these cards people will grow suspicious. And is the wont of such ideas complains may start pouring in about overcharging, faulty billing etc. And a nice scheme like this one has the potential to fall flat even before it takes off.

Re: Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
Sorry to bump into an old thread, but found it better than creating a new one as it addresses the same thing.
Y'day renewed the monthly toll charges at Mulund toll on Eastern Express highway and was handed over a pamplet by the toll guys. The pamplet talks about the MSRDC introducing a smart card for the monthly toll passes starting from December 2012 for the Vashi, Airoli, Mulund - EEH & LBS and Dahisar Toll plazas for which a refundable deposit of 60/- will be charged and the smart card can be brought at any toll plaza from the 26th to 30th of every month.
Although its not clear whether the smart card can be recharged online or again have to be visited to the toll plazas for renewing but atleast the line at the toll collection booths will be reduced (hopefully). Now that the monthly pass lanes at all the tolls have become virtually extinct, will buying a monthly pass be beneficial apart from the trouble of shelling out cash at the tolls every time you pass.

Re: Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
While any electronic measure is a good idea - it would be better to implement a system that does not require manual input. Proximity cards would be good to ensure that boom barriers lift when card is valid/has balance. A smart card with a chip might require a toll operator to feed it to a reader and then take action. Time reduction will be limited to the money changing that otherwise takes place.
As is always the case, there will be people without cards getting into the card lane and will have to be handled manually.

Re: Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
I would really like to see a setup similar to Singapore where the toll road have no plazas.
That would ensure that there is no funneling of traffice to enter or exit the toll roads. Down south we have so many toll plazas that we need to wait. In this case, this is implemented, it would be 1 continous road, and no need to exchange Cash!!

Re: Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
Let us and the govt try anything - the jams at the toll booth will never end.
Till all the people driving, learn to obey laws and rules while driving, nothing will ever improve in this country.
What makes you think people without the smart card won't rush into the smart card lane once they realise it's faster ?

Re: Electronic Toll Collection in Mumbai
The ETC lane on the Sea Link is Rs 2850 a month. The lane is also manned to prevent gatecrashers
Only here we get to see electronic conveniences and manual systems co-exist. Cheap labour is the reason why cinema houses charge Rs 20-30 convenience charge for online bookings instead of the other way around.

Healthy 'liver friendly' diet for Hepatitis C sufferers, join Boy George's C party
I have been cooking for 10 years and am an extreme food lover. My years in the industry have been extremely varied and have seen me work as a food writer, chef and television presenter. Before establishing myself as chef I worked as a body piercer for seven years. This led to my interest in hepatitis C and saw me become a patron for The Hepatitis C Trust in 2009, and I have been involved in the organisation ever since.
Hepatitis C is a blood borne virus that attacks the liver so a 'liver friendly' diet is extremely important. A healthy diet that is rich in foods such as lean meats, fish, artichokes and colourful vegetables can mean fewer symptoms, less visits to the doctor and a more active, enjoyable lifestyle for hepatitis C sufferers. I find it incredible that the liver is one of the only organs that can repair itself but it tends to get a hammering around the festive season when we let loose a little and enjoy those foods we would normally say no to. Unfortunately the rich and fatty foods that normally go hand in hand with Christmas are like poison to this vital organ and our bodies get overloaded with them this time of the year. There are ways to ease the damages and diet changes can help restore liver health.
Boy George and I recently hosted a Great British C Party which saw me cooking liver friendly dishes, for a star studded guest list. We are both patrons for The Hepatitis C Trust and the C Party campaign, which is a great way to raise awareness for the Trust and the amazing work they have been doing for hepatitis C awareness. Eating well for your liver was the key theme for the dinner and it was my aim to highlight food that is both healthy and delicious.
The Health Protection Agency estimates that there are 216,000 people with hepatitis C in the UK, but less than half have been diagnosed. If you feel you might be at risk of hepatitis C, you need to get tested by your local GP or health service. If undiagnosed, hepatitis C can cause cirrhosis and liver cancer. Yet diagnosed, it can be treated and cured. There is no vaccination but early treatment can successfully clear the virus in around half of patients and on-going infection can be managed.
Symptoms of hepatitis C really do vary, so it is always a good idea to get checked. However, common symptoms include: fatigue with non-refreshing sleep, depression, headaches, short-term memory problems, difficulty concentrating, mood swings, digestive problems, joint and muscle aches and pains, flu-like symptoms, discomfort or pain in the liver area, abdominal pain, itching.
A healthy liver friendly diet is just one way to relieve hepatitis C symptoms and create a healthy liver
For more advice or information contact The Hepatitis C Trust helpline on 0845 223 4424 or visit their website at hepctrust.org.uk.

Who's enjoying every single minute of the summer like me? This season makes me feel even more grateful for my everyday life, the sun, weather, trees, flowers… Everything is just so beautiful and made to perfection.
Anyways, I hope you all are enjoying my latest recipes, today I have another one I truly love, not just because they are beyond easy but they are super tasty, and not just a dessert, it can be part of your breakfast, snack or whatever you want! And super portable.
Also, you have the option to make them raw if you want to! You don't need many ingredients and you'll enjoy every bite of these cookies.
Gastrawnomica's Tahini-Coconut Cookies
Makes 9-10 cookies
2 Tbsp coconut flour
1 Tbsp tahini, most be soft
1 small orange, juice
1/4 cup water
Thin banana slices and a little bit of coconut flour for topping. (CAN'T omit banana slices)*
First decide if you want to bake the cookies or dehydrate for a raw version. If dehydrating, cookies will take overnight dehydration, for baking, preheat oven at 350ºF.
First mix your tahini and make sure it is very soft, even try to melt it a little bit by putting hot water in a pot until very spreadable. Add the juice of 1/2 orange and mix together. You'll get a sticky dough. Add in coconut flour, 1 Tbsp at a time and the rest of orange juice mixing all the time. Add water while you're mixing, add it slowly, until you have the perfect cookie dough consistency. It must be shapeable, not too sticky, too dry or too moist.
Start making little balls with the dough and put in a cookie sheet previously greased and covered with parchment paper. If dehydrating, put in your dehydrator trays.
Once you have all your cookie balls ready, take a fork and LIGHTLY press down in both directions, making a "cross".
Bake for 15-20 min at 350 and allow to cool down when ready.
*I recommend you to serve these with fresh fruit and bananas are ideal! The cookies might be a little dry by themselves because of coconut flour, so if you don't add any extra liquid sweetener like me add banana slices on top. Because they give them an extra sweet punch and the combination is just heaven.
Didn't last enough…
Enjoy and share!! Talk to you all soon!

Skyline duo earns top marks at national leadership conference
September 24, 2013
By Neil Pierson
This summer, Rachel Catterall and Megan O'Brian achieved something none of their peers at Skyline High School can claim.
The two seniors won gold-medal honors in July at the Family, Career and Community Leaders of America's National Leadership Conference in Nashville. Thousands of students attended the event, but a relatively small percentage did as well as Catterall and O'Brian.
Projects that qualify for nationals are scored with a rubric — a point-based system that looks at the quality of each component. The points are converted into a percentage, and students earn medals based on their scores.
"The majority of people at nationals get silver medals, which is 80-90 percent," Catterall said. "Over 90 is gold, and we got 95, I think."
Catterall and O'Brian spent the better part of the 2012-13 school year preparing the project that was eventually judged to be one of the best in the nation. They were part of the national No Kid Hungry campaign, which seeks to end childhood hunger in the United States.
The project was much more than research; it required hands-on activities. O'Brian and Catterall — who served as the president and vice president, respectively, of last year's Skyline FCCLA chapter — had to raise money and awareness in their community.
Last October, they held a Wear Orange Day that got a big chunk of the student body involved. Shortly thereafter, they held a two-week food drive that netted hundreds of items for the Issaquah Food & Clothing Bank.
During the spring, the girls partnered with Popcorn Palace to sell treats at the school. They made a $500 profit, which went directly to No Kid Hungry.
Their website, Skyline for No Kid Hungry, chronicles the steps they took. They estimate their efforts reached 95 percent of Skyline's students.
They also learned a lot in the process. The statistics they gathered were startling — 16 million American children live in homes without enough food, and 10.6 million don't receive free or reduced-price lunches at school even though they're eligible.
"I learned a lot about childhood hunger itself," Catterall said. "I didn't really realize how big of an issue it is in America."
The girls were both involved in the school's Teaching Academy as juniors, and their FCCLA project also relates to possible career prospects in teaching.
O'Brian said there are obvious examples of how meals can positively influence a student's academic performance, as well as their behavior and emotions at school.
"It's pretty incredible just what little changes can do," she said.
Skyline's FCCLA chapter is recruiting new members this year, the girls said, and because they have a new adviser, they're expecting some changes. They also know FCCLA will be working with Autism Speaks on outreach efforts in the coming year.
"We're planning on focusing on that a little more this year," Catterall said.
O'Brian said she is hoping to see more students join FCCLA and participate in Students Taking Action with Recognition, otherwise known as STAR events. They're typically centered around community service or family and consumer science activities, she said.
"Our school is allowed to go to state this year because it's not over our spring break like it was last year," O'Brian said of the FCCLA event. "We're hoping to get more students involved in these STAR events, and there is a ton of different STAR events that people can participate in at the state level, and then go to nationals."

I just got these baskets in. It took forever for them to ship but that is not to big a deal. They were packaged well so no damage was found during shipping. The product itself was a little flaky with the corn husks. They did not use adhesive on the ends so they are sticking out. It looks pretty good as bathroom decore. the bamboo was not cleaned off very well so it did not look that great but i cleaned it myself. A good decorative basket all in all.

Cybersecurity Bill Passed, Highway Bill, Hill Event on Chemical Policy
Openmarket.org: The Awful Truth about the Highway Bills
The Senate passed the obnoxiously titled Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) bill on March 14 in a 74-22 vote. While ostensibly passed in a bipartisan fashion, it soon became clear most of the Senate Republicans who voted for MAP-21's passage had no clue what was in the bill and how it would be paid for.
The House and Senate could be meeting in conference as early as May 7. While many observers have been wondering about squaring the Keystone XL pipeline with President Obama's solar-powered vision, the real head-scratching ought to be focused on trying to figure out why anybody — progressive, conservative, libertarian, communist — would support whatever hellish Frankenstein bill emerges from conference.
The only sensible path forward is for the House and Senate to give up on both MAP-21 and H.R. 7 and start over with a blank slate. Going down the current path will just make our existing problems worse.
Forbes.com: How a Cybersecurity Protection Bill Might Differ from CISPA
The House of Representatives [voted] on "CISPA," the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act this week. Whatever advocates' frustrations, it's not clear what government's capabilities really are with respect to private critical infrastructure security and cybersecurity, regardless of resources.
Given that, ensuring that nothing blocks markets from reacting as fluidly as possible, rather than federally over-steering cybersecurity, should be the guiding principle. There's a chance to adopt that stance next, because the Senate won't likely pass CISPA and a White House veto is promised anyhow; but it would require a somewhat different mindset.
Those who feel we must legislate cybersecurity remain far apart. But it's not really surprising; agreement even on fundamentals with respect to where to allocate cybersecurity resources and know-how doesn't exist. Nor are we sure of the relative likelihood of physical vs. cyber-attacks, for example; or of cyber-terror or cybercrime aimed at the power grid, food processing facilities, chemical plants, banks or other institutions.

Free dental screenings are among the many services Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry will be offering to during the month of February during National Children's Dental Health Month
Dental School Focuses on Kids in February
The Dugoni School of Dentistry is focusing on programs for kids and families this February in celebration of National Children's Dental Health Month.

In the world of Public Art, Banksy is straight-up badass. His notoriety as an England-based artist, political activist, film director, and painter is due to his dark-humoured graffiti that he has audaciously posted on streets, walls, and bridges in cities throughout the international community. Shit, the man has even tagged the Israeli West Bank barrier with an image of children digging a hole through the wall– talk about brave!
But being the ambitious soul that he is, it's just onto the next one for Banksy. Beginning this month, the artist will be tagging up the streets of New York City with an outdoors exhibition entitled Better Out Than In: An Artists Residency on the Streets of New York. Expect to see one post a day of a wall that Banksy has managed to vandalize, such as the "Graffiti Is an Art" piece seen below.
And it's accompanied by audio! How cool is that? According to the site, just dial 1 800 656 4271 #1 or click the play button to hear a scholarly voice mispronounce Banksy as "Ban-sky" and explain that the origin of the word "graffiti" is the latin word "graffit-o". Har, har.
Graffiti art is where it's at, whether the popos like it or not, and no one says it better than the Great Banksy himself: "Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place. Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better looking place." #banksyny #publicart #graffitiFOREVA

In recent successful trials, the dual-mode Brimstone missile was fired at moving 40-foot fast attack craft from a British Royal Air Force Tornado GR4 strike aircraft. (MBDA)
- Filed Under
FARNBOROUGH, ENGLAND — MBDA has conducted firing trials of its dual-mode Brimstone missile against fast attack craft as part of a trial for the British Ministry of Defence, company officials said Wednesday.
The trials included two firings against fast moving 40-foot craft from a British Tornado GR4 strike aircraft, the officials said during a briefing for reporters at the Farnborough International Air Show. One firing involved a fast attack craft placed in the vicinity of three neutral craft.
Adrian Monks, MBDAs head of short-range surface attack weapons, said the target was hit without any damage to the other boats. The executive said the maritime strike study contract with the MoD was ongoing but declined to comment further.
A Tornado was previously used by MBDA at the start of the program to prove Brimstones maritime capabilities.
Sea- and land-launched options of the weapon are also being worked on.
The missile is currently deployed on the Tornado but Britain has started early integration work to install the new Brimstone 2 version on the Eurofighter Typhoon aircraft.
The first production standard of the heavily improved Brimstone 2 is due off the manufacturing line in the next couple of days. The weapon is due to enter service on the Tornado next year.
Brimstone was originally developed as an anti-armor weapon, but with the inclusion of a dual-mode seeker it has evolved into a missile capable of defeating a wide range of targets, including fast moving vehicles.
The British MoD recently funded trials in the US to prove the integration and operation of the weapon on the MQ-9 Reaper.
The Royal Air Force currently operates its Reaper fleet armed with Hellfire missiles and precision guided bombs.
The briefing on Brimstone capabilities also revealed that the US Navy is showing interest in the British-developed weapon and is spending $4 million investigating integration of the missile on the F/A-18 Super Hornet. The US House Appropriations Committees defense subcommittee has requested additional funding in its budget markup for 2015. That funding has yet to be approved. ■

Dear Hafiz,
There is no standard design for the flanges designed using ASME SECVIII. The flange design varies with design temp., pressure, corrosion allowance and bolting material.
You can design using the software "PV-LITE"

Dear H.A.Alvi
80" CS WN Flange is out of ASME B16.47 or MSS SP-44 scope. Your 80" flange should be designed in accordance with ASME SEC VIII D1, Appendix 2.
