dedicated to my beloved auntie
I am a Ugandan aged with 15yrs old.I always love what I have in my life, but some don't love what they have.I ask myself as to why those don't love their dreams?And also my father don't know what he want!I hope that may be he have a chance to take a right decision that's why he abandoned us(his family).
My parents are both Ugandans.My mother is called Sarah.And my father is called Bbossa.I live with my mother since 2002.We are six brothers and sisters.We are three of the same totem(Kiyingi Derrick Sly, Lumu Edward, Naluggwa Joan).And others are Bugembe Faizol, Nanozzi Janet and Kasirye Timothy.We love each other, and we respect each other.
Lumu Edward is my next brother.Naluggwa Joan is my sister next to Lumu Edward.Bugembe Faizol is my brother next to Naluggwa Joan.Nanozzi Janet is my sister next to Bugembe Faizol.Kasirye Timothy is our youngest brother.
James is my step father.At first, he was curious with me.And I really love him because he is standing my family's future.
In 2010, I joined secondary school.I am in my first year at Wagwa High School(Junior High school), P.O.Box 171 Lukaya, Masaka(Ug).I do 16-17 subjects by now.In my young, I wished to be a Doctor.But now, I no longer willing to be a Doctor because I perform poorly in my science subjects since I joined Junior High School(Secondary School).

Whether you are using the internal hard drive or external hard drive, you will never get the actual 2 TB storage capacity. Here, I will discuss about the most commonly questions asked by the users when they see this difference in between the advertised storing capacity of HDD and the actual capacity shown in Operating System statistics.
I have seen that the difference is around 200 GB when drive is formatted with one NTFS partition on a Windows based system. The results may vary on MAC OS.
The most commonly asked questions are.
1. Where is my 200 GB DATA capacity?
2. IS there any bad sector in the drive and the OS is hiding that space for performance reasons?
3. The vendor of the drive has wrongly advertised the actual storage capacity of 2 TB drive.
4. Have I got the smaller capacity drive instead of actual drive?
The phrase of questions may vary but the focus is same i.e. why is this difference?
The difference between a hard drive's rated size(Vendor advertised) and it's reported size in a computer OS is due to the following two main reasons.
1. Sometimes, there is an additional recovery partition that takes up space but is not always present and most of the times, recovery partition is not shown in the Disk Management programs.
2. There are two capacity measurement systems i.e. Binary number system and Decimal Number System. Hard drive's manufacturers and vendors like Seagate, Western Digital etc use the decimal system to measure the size of storage devices.
According to storage device vendor, the rated size would be
1KB = 1000 bytes
1MB = 1000 KBs
1GB = 1000MBs
1TB = 1000GBs
But according to Computers who are binary machines and are based on binary number systems, the reported storage capacity would be
1KB = 1024KBs
1MB = 1024KBs
1GB = 1024MBs
1TB = 1024GBs.
So a completely blank 2TB hard drive, if you do the calculation, you can expect it to read as 1862GBs, or approximately 1.8TB.
Hopefully, now you understand that what would be the actual size of a 2TB hard drive is 1.8TB. IT doesn't matter that whether you are using a portable external hard drive, internal harddrive, or desktop drive. Measuring capacity is same for all drives(SATA, HDD, Pen Drives, USB Drives etc).

The midway and the rides was a popular spot for fairgoers as the evening settled in at the Indiana State Fair on Friday, August 3, 2012. (Matt Detrich / The Star)
- Filed Under
Those craving to wash down their serving of fried butter with a cold beer at the Indiana State Fair may soon have their wish granted.
Senate Bill 168, authored by Sen. Jean Leising, R-Oldenburg, would allow the sale of alcoholic beverages during the State Fair.
"Because of the current statute in place, during the State Fair no alcohol can be sold. We have microbreweries and wineries that really would like to not only be able to display their products, but to sell their products," Leising said. "That's what I'm trying to make happen. It will be interesting to see if I can get support. It's one of ...

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power met with two recently liberated members of the all-female Russian punk band Pussy Riot today in New York.
The two were imprisoned for hooliganism in a protest against President Vladimir Putin and were released many months later in December under amnesty from the Russian leader.
When asked for a response to Power's meeting with the Pussy Riot members, Power's Russian counterpart at the UN feigned surprise and disappointment.
"She has not joined the band?" Russian Ambassador to the United Nations Vitaly Churkin asked reporters. "I would expect her to invite them to perform at the National Cathedral in Washington. This is my expectation."
He added that the U.S. could perhaps "arrange a world tour for them — St Peter's Cathedral in Rome, maybe in Mecca in Saudi Arabia, ending up with a gala concert at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem."
"So if Ambassador Power fell short, I would be disappointed," he said with a smile.
Power's response: Let's go:
Ambassador Churkin, I'd be honored to go on tour with #PussyRiot — a group of girls who speak up & stand for human rights. Will you join us?
— Samantha Power (@AmbassadorPower) February 6, 2014
And the U.S. ambassador has the perfect venue for the appearance that her Russian counterpart has facetiously suggested:
I can't sing, but if #PussyRiot will have me, Amb Churkin, I say our 1st concert is for Russia's pol. prisoners. #LiveFromMatrosskayaTishina
— Samantha Power (@AmbassadorPower) February 6, 2014
Maria Alekhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova arrived in the U.S. yesterday to appear at a concert organized by Amnesty International. They are on their first overseas trip since walking free on Dec. 23.
Five Pussy Riot performers wearing colorful balaclavas sang a "punk prayer" in Moscow's main Orthodox cathedral in February 2012, calling on the Virgin Mary to "expel" Putin. A Moscow court jailed Tolokonnikova, Alekhina and Ekaterina Samutsevich for inciting religious hatred and hooliganism in August 2012. Samutsevich was released on a suspended sentence, while the other two weren't identified and remain at large.
The pardon came after Russia's top court ordered a review of a two-year prison sentence for Tolokonnikova and Alekhina, ruling they should have been entitled to defer their sentences because of their young children.
Met some brave "troublemakers" today — #PussyRiot's @mashaalekhina & @tolokno came by to discuss their time in jail. pic.twitter.com/WMFFkAbbIW
— Samantha Power (@AmbassadorPower) February 5, 2014
If the Russian envoy was making light of the meeting, Kurtis Cooper, deputy spokesman of the U.S. Mission to the UN, said in an e-mail that Power met with the two "to discuss the disturbing trend in the Russian Federation of legislation, prosecutions, and government actions aimed at suppressing dissent and pressuring groups that advocate for fundamental human rights and basic government accountability.
The two spoke of their experiences in 22 months in prison and pointed to yet more political imprisonment in Russia. "Ambassador Power thanked them for their advocacy, particularly on behalf of those in prison whose voices cannot be heard and their extraordinary bravery,"'Cooper said, "and pledged the United States' commitment to continue to advocate strongly on behalf of human rights and freedom of assembly and speech."

I don't think the description is real. Even if it is, I'm going to wait until I see Costner deliver the line until I make a judgement call. If he's obviously overwhelmed by fear for Clark's safety, I'll be a lot more understanding. But if it comes off the way it does in the description, I'll become concerned about the direction they've taken the character, and will be until I see the film in its entirety. But, for now, I'm not worried.

Nerve cells cover their high energy demand with glucose and lactate. Scientists of the University of Zurich now provide new support for this. They show for the first time in the intact mouse brain evidence for an exchange of lactate between different brain cells. With this study they were able to confirm a 20-year old hypothesis.
In comparison to other organs, the human brain has the highest energy requirements. The supply of energy for nerve cells and the particular role of lactic acid...
In laser material processing, the simulation of processes has made great strides over the past few years. Today, the software can predict relatively well what will happen on the workpiece. Unfortunately, it is also highly complex and requires a lot of computing time. Thanks to clever simplification, experts from Fraunhofer ILT are now able to offer the first-ever simulation software that calculates processes in real time and also runs on tablet computers and smartphones. The fast software enables users to do without expensive experiments and to find optimum process parameters even more effectively.
Before now, the reliable simulation of laser processes was a job for experts. Armed with sophisticated software packages and after many hours on computer...

Leo Szilard Lectureship Award
To recognize outstanding accomplishments by physicists in promoting the use of physics for the benefit of society in such areas as the environment, arms control, and science policy. The lecture format is intended to increase the visibility of those who have promoted the use of physics for the benefit of society. The award consists of $3,000, a certificate citing the contributions of the recipient, plus $2,000 travel expenses for lectures given by the recipient at an APS meeting and at two or more educational institutions or research laboratories in the year following the award. The lectures should be especially aimed at physicists early in their careers.
Establishment & Support
This annual award was established in 1974 by the Forum on Physics and Society as a memorial to Leo Szilard in recognition of his concern for the social consequences of science. The award was endowed in 1998 by donations from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Energy Foundation, the David and Lucille Packard Foundation and individuals. It was also expanded to a lectureship format to promote awareness of the application of physics to social problems and to increase the visibility of those engaged in such activities.
Rules & Eligibility
Any living physicist is eligible. Nominations are active for three years.
Nomination & Selection Process
Serving a diverse and inclusive community of physicists worldwide is a primary goal for APS. Nominations of qualified women, members of underrepresented minority groups, and scientists from outside the United States are especially encouraged.
This year's deadline has passed. Please check back soon for next year's nomination information and deadline.
