Toolbox | Legislation, policy & guidelines | Training tools | External resources
Combustible dust presents a serious workplace hazard whether your facility produces wood dust or many other types of dust (from manufacturing or processing of food and beverages, plastics, rubber, chemical products, coal, metal, fabric, or various agricultural products). If the dust is disturbed, enough dust becomes airborne and a source of ignition is present, then the dust may explode. Uncontrolled cleaning activities may also generate a dust cloud that could explode. Employers must manage dust so that it does not present a risk of fire and explosion.
The resources below make up an online toolbox designed to help workers, supervisors and employers meet the legal duties outlined in WorkSafeBC policy and the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation. This toolbox also contains information, training tools and templates that you can use to develop your own policies and practices to deal with combustible dust hazards in your workplace.
Any industry that produces dust as a result of its manufacturing processes may be at risk of combustible dust fires or explosions. This WorkSafe Bulletin provides a description of combustible dust and the conditions that can lead to an explosion. It also discusses factors that should be considered in a risk assessment, and gives an overview of how to control the hazards of combustible dust. Employers and supervisors can use this document as a guide to increase their knowledge of combustible dust hazard recognition and mitigation. PDF 621 KB
One of the best ways to prevent the accumulation of hazardous dust in the workplace is to install an effective dust collection system. An improperly designed, installed, and/or maintained dust collection system can introduce other fire and explosion risks. This WorkSafe Bulletin provides a overview of dust collection systems and how they work, as well as the proper design, installation, and maintenance of these systems. PDF 602 KB
Placing dust collectors indoors without proper protective measures can result in combustible dust fires and explosions. This WorkSafe Bulletin outlines the hazards and gives employers and supervisors an overview of inadequate protective measures. It also provides a checklist for appropriate selection, installation, and maintenance of dust collectors in the workplace. Finally, the document provides recommendations on where to get help if needed. PDF 639 KB
This toolbox meeting guide describes combustible dust and the conditions that can lead to an explosion. It also gives an overview of primary and secondary explosions. The guide provides discussion points in a clear, simple format that employers and supervisors can use at their next crew meeting. PDF 526 KB
This toolbox meeting guide aims to increase workers' awareness of the potential for a combustible dust fire or explosion in the workplace. It lists topics that employers should cover during worker education programs. It also gives an overview of how to spot an explosion in the making and how to control the hazards of combustible dust. The guide provides discussion points in a clear, simple format, and employers and supervisors can use it at their next crew meeting. PDF 635 KB
We must all do our part to minimize the risk of a combustible dust fire or explosion. This toolbox meeting guide reminds workers of their right to refuse unsafe work as it relates to combustible dust in the workplace and describes the role of the supervisor once the hazard has been reported. It is designed in a simple and clear format that employers and supervisors can use as discussion points at their next crew meeting. PDF 557 KB
This handout for workers was designed to accompany the toolbox meeting guide of the same title. It reminds workers of their right to refuse unsafe work as it relates to combustible dust in the workplace. It also describes the role of the supervisor and the process that follows once a combustible dust hazard has been reported. It gives an overview of how to spot an explosion in the making. Employers and supervisors can give workers copies of this handout during a crew meeting.

The Beginnings of
Ethical Resistance
ON 28 JANUARY 1986, millions of American citizens watched in horror as an ostensibly sophisticated and safe space shuttle exploded, killing six astronauts and the first teacher ever to fly in space. Up to the moment of the Challenger disaster, most Americans believed that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration incorporated the country's finest qualities: presumably, the best scientists, engineers, and managers had developed the world's most advanced technology to explore the new frontiers of space. Suddenly the safety systems collapsed and the infallible technical expertise failed, leaving in their wake mourning families, stunned political leaders, and citizens searching for an explanation. President Reagan immediately appointed a blue-ribbon commission to investigate the events leading up to the disaster. 1
In the hearings that followed, witnesses gradually revealed that major technological problems had been known for years to highly placed administrators. NASA engineers had recognized defects in the crucial booster rockets as far back as 1979. On the very night before the disaster, several engineers from the Morton Thiokol Company, the major contractor responsible for construction of the rockets, had clearly warned that the seals in the booster rocket could malfunction in the cold weather forecast for the day of the flight. Their recommendations to postpone the launch were, however, overruled by Thiokol's own executives and by NASA

I've encountered a problem with my class file and I can't seem to find a fix around it. I was hoping someone could point me to the right direction.
Here's my code:
class Car:
def __init__(self, year_model, make, speed):
self.__year_model = year_model
self.__make = make
self.__speed = 0
def set_year_model(self, year_model):
self.__year_model = year_model
def set_make(self, make):
self.__make = make
def get_year_model(self):
return self.__year_model
def get_make(self):
return self.__make
def accelerate(self):
self.__speed + 5
return self.__speed
def decelerate(self):
self.__speed - 5
return self.__speed
def get_speed(self):
return self.__speed
Essentially, I want the speed attribute set to 0, and have 3 methods (accelerate, decelerate, and get_speed) which add and subtract 5 to the speed attribute and eventually return the speed attribute so it can be printed.
I would guess there's a problem with my formatting but I can't seem to find the correct arrangement that would fix the class.
The real program is suppose to loop the accelerate method 5 times, but the class method is supposed to handle the sequential addition and return the final speed.
import car
user_year = 1995
user_make = "toyota"
user_speed = 0
user_car = car.Car(user_year, user_make, user_speed)
for count in range(1,6):
print user_car.get_speed()
I know this code is very weak, but it's all makeshift to help make my problem clearer. So hopefully it's not too confusing and I can get an answer.

November 6, 2012:
Russia has begun upgrading the security systems at its ICBM bases, especially against the threat from Islamic terrorists. Russia currently has 120 ICBMs in silos and 190 moved about on 16 wheel 17.4 meter (54 foot) long TELs (Transporter Erector Launchers). Naturally the Russians are not giving out details of the upgrades. But it was revealed that all components of multilayer systems of sensors, as well as power control and fire suppression systems are being refurbished or improved. Security personnel, all of them carefully selected, are to be given additional training and new (apparently more deadly) rules of engagement.
The Russians said little about improvements in the security of their mobile ICBMs. These travel around roads inside large rural military bases. That makes these mobile systems the most vulnerable to terrorist attack. There have probably been major improvements in how these mobile ICBMs are monitored and protected.

We have no standard anymore for anything, ever since human life is no longer the standard. 1
Until recently, the prevailing opinion was that most Germans who lived through the Hitler regime were immobilized by fear of Nazi brutalities and were therefore silent, passive, and not involved. This assessment has been challenged most notably by Robert Gellately in his 1990 study The Gestapo and German Society, in which he concludes that "the regime's dreaded enforcer would have been seriously hampered without a considerable degree of public co-operation." 2 Considering the enormous brutalities it perpetrated, the number of the Gestapo-the Secret State Police-was relatively small; 3 Gellately holds that the Gestapo, rather than being "an 'instrument of domination,'" was "to a large extent a reactive organization…structurally dependent on the continuing co-operation of German citizens" (136).
This cooperation manifested itself most frequently in denunciations. Gellately suggests that "denunciations from the population were the key link in the three-way interaction between the police, people, and policy in Nazi-Germany" (136). Although anti-Semitism figured in these denunciations, the motives were "usually determined by private interests and employed for instrumental reasons never intended by the regime" (147);

For nearly a decade, the program was part of area children's summer fun.
Dozens of elementary-aged children would go to Franklin College during the summer. They learned how to put together roller coasters, how to say a Japanese sentence and learned fractions using candy.
Last summer, the college's Kids on Campus program was shuttered.
This summer, Kids on Campus will be back, offering the sort of educational fun that has become well known in the community, said April Reamsnyder, event management coordinator for the college.
"The kids get so much out of it, and it is so much fun," she said. "This has become a part of the community."
Balanced calendars cutting into summer vacations and low pay for teachers were to blame for the one-year closure.
Most local school districts had adopted balanced calendars, cutting summer break in favor of more time off during fall and spring breaks. Also, teacher's pay for a class at the camp was lowered, Reamsnyder said.
Enough teachers didn't propose classes which prompted organizers to cancel the event completely. The college began hosting classes for high school students.
Parents contacted Reamsnyder and said they were disappointed the program was canceled and that it was an annual tradition for their students.
Organizers wanted to find a way to get the program back.
Jeff Stanley, a teacher who had taught science classes at the camp, started calling teachers to ask that they take on a class at the program.
Stanley taught at the camp for six years and wanted students to be able to learn things that are difficult to cover during class, he said.
"It's a very educational program, they don't even know they are learning," Stanley said.
Teacher pay for the program was raised and Kids on Campus was scaled back to one session. In the past, parents had two week-long options to pick from.
Parents can opt to enroll their children in one class, a half-day program or a full day of classes. Those two options are still available.
Classes this year will continue to have a science theme, with students being able to take a flight simulator, astronomy or cells and DNA class.
Children also will be able to learn about everything from ultimate Frisbee to natural disasters. Theater and reading classes have been added. Students can learn the basics of karate.
Kids on Campus has been constantly evolving in its nine-year history, Reamsnyder said.
The program started as a fun summer camp. Learning was secondary.
Curriculum evolved. Now teachers who propose a class must prove that it will meet at least three academic standards.
Attending the camp can be a family tradition, with siblings attending together and younger kids following in their older siblings' footsteps.
The camp help connects the college to the community, Reamsnyder said.

Mumbai, May 12 (IANS) After acquiring a noteworthy position as a producer in the film industry, Sajid Nadiadwala now ventures into television. He has cracked a deal and acquired 50 percent stake in a high-profile television channel.
His banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, which gave hits like 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi' and 'Heyy Babyy', will invest Rs.1 billion in the channel.
Confirming the news, Nadiadwala said: 'This acquisition is an important step from our company towards consolidation in the TV industry. We are confident that this will add immense value to the company and also strengthen our company profile. We have other expansion plans which we will announce shortly.'
'We have created success stories in the romantic comedy genre. But today there is a boom in the market and our new mantra is to diversify and explore business of different genres. Today my company has invested in television, tomorrow it could be the media. The sky is the limit.'
However, he refused to divulge the channel's name.
Nadiadwala's company also plans to acquire as many as 100 single screen theatres in India. In fact his company, along with Jagdev Singh, managing director of Khalsa Motors, has just acquired a theatre in Falna, Rajasthan.
'Yes, we are planning to acquire 5 to 10 single screen theatres in Rajasthan alone. The theatres will be renovated with hi-tech digital sound and picture quality. We will also provide other state- of-the-art facilities in the theatre,' said Singh.
Nadiadwala and Singh's next move is to construct a multiplex called Newplex in Jodhpur.

Temperatures didn't climb out of the 50s today with a howling northwest wind, and we will basically repeat that for our Monday as highs will only make it to the mid 50s with winds strong from the northwest at 10-20 mph. Tuesday will be even colder as some locations may not get out of the 40s as the coldest air in quite some time works in completely. Tuesday night into Wednesday morning will be the coldest of the week with lows in the middle 20s, which could lead to a hard freeze.
Temperatures will start to rebound on Wednesday as high pressure moves east of us, turning our winds to the south, and bringing in warmer and more humid air. We will return to the 60s Thursday and make it to the 70s for Saturday and Sunday.
Rain looks to stay away until Sunday when our next system arrives. However, depending on how much moisture returns Friday and Saturday, we may squeeze out a shower or storm each afternoon through the weekend.

text: Submitted by Stephanie Ogozalek on Fri, 05/01/2015 - 11:00am The Shark, The Beast, Circle Line, New York Water Taxi, Clipper City There's something magical about being out on the water in New York City. Whether you sail down one of our rivers, row out on a lake or cruise on the ocean, it's a lovely and relaxing activity, and a great way to stay cool on a hot summer day. It's also an opportunity to see the city from a whole new perspective. Since much of NYC is surrounded by water, there are countless operators offering all kinds of boat tours. So the big question for families is, which ones are truly family-friendly? After all, once you're on the water, you're committed to the ride, regardless of tantrums, seasickness or plain old boredom. So you want to make the right decision. To help you figure out which NYC boat ride works best for your family, we've broken them down by type (great for tots, wildlife watching, DIY rides, etc.) and highlighted some of our kids' personal favorites. You can find more seasonal activities in our Summer Fun Guide. Best for Getting WetShark Speedboat Thrill Ride Departs from Pier 16 at the South Street Seaport $28 for adults, $19 for children ages 3-12. Must be 40 inches tall to ride. May-August The Beast Departs from the Circle Line dock on Pier 83, 42nd Street and Twelfth Avenue $29 for adults, $23 for children. Must be 40 inches tall to ride. May-September If your family's objective isn't just to get out on the water but to get wet, too, then the Shark or The Beast are for you. Both rides are high-adrenaline, 30-minute speedboat tours that go out into New York Harbor, zip past the skyline, stop for photo ops by the Statue of Liberty and then race home, splashing loads of water onto their passengers. That'll cool you down! I did The Beast last summer with my then 8-year-old son and his buddy and it was quite a thrill. Best Virtual European VacationVenetian Gondola Tour Departs from the Loeb Boathouse in Central Park, 72nd Street and Park Drive North $30 per half hour Year-round weather permitting Can't make it to Venice this year? Then head over to Central Park for an authentic Venetian Gondola Tour on the Lake. Doing this ride takes a bit of planning, since you must reserve your spot in advance, but it's sure to leave a lasting impression. The boats can fit up to six passengers. Call the Boathouse at 212-517-2233 to make your reservation. Best for Playing Tourist42nd Street Circle Line Departs from the Circle Line dock on Pier 83, 42nd Street and Twelfth Avenue $41 adults, $27 for children Year-round Downtown Circle Line Departs from Pier 16 at the South Street Seaport $31 for adults, $19 for children April-December Yes they're for out-of-towners, but these rides offer million-dollar views of Manhattan's glittering skyline. You really should try one at least once. From its Midtown location, the Circle Line cruises all the way around Manhattan and pauses for photo ops near the Statue of Liberty. (If you want to actually visit the Lady, that's an entirely different boat ride.) For an upscale touristy experience, catch Circle Line's Zephyr at the South Street Seaport, which sails past the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. East River Ferry Departs from various locations on the East River Year-round $4 one-way weekday, $6 one-way weekend, $1 for bicycle, free under age 6 While it's definitely more of a commuter boat than a sightseeing vessel, taking the East River Ferry is a relaxing way to the waterfront neighborhoods in Queens and Brooklyn, and my family's favorite way to get to Brooklyn Bridge Park. You can even buy an all-day pass so you can hop on and off as much as you'd like—much better than those tour buses. Download our handy guide to find out what to do at each stop along the way. Best for Do-It-YourselfersRowboats Departs from the Loeb Boathouse in Central Park, 72nd Street and Park Drive North $12 for the first hour, $2.50 for each additional 15 minutes. $20 cash deposit required. April-November If you want to be the captain of your own vessels, then a rowboat's the thing. Rowboats can be rented from Central Park's Loeb Boathouse and enjoyed on the adjacent 22-acre Lake. Read about other paddling options in NYC. Kayaking Departs from various locations. FREE Mid-May to mid-October A number of volunteer-run organizations offer walk-up, no-cost kayaking to anyone who can swim at locations in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and on Staten Island. Rules and schedule vary so be sure to read our in-depth kayaking with kids post for more info. Lakeside in Prospect Park Departs from the LeFrak Center at Lakeside, 171 East Drive in Prospect Park Single pedal boat: $20/hour; double pedal boat: $30/hour; Single kayak: $15/hour, $30/half day, $40/full day; Double kayak: $25/hour; $35/half day; $45/day Late May-September Pedal boating and kayaking kicked off in 2014 at the Lakeside complex on Prospect Park's freshwater lake and return again this summer. The pedal boats hit the water in May and kayaks will soon follow. Best for Playing PirateClipper City Sail Departs from Slip 2 at the Battery May to mid-October $39-$45 for adults, $17-$20 for children ages 3-13; $5 for children under age 2 Manhattan by Sail offers a wide variety of sightseeing trips aboard its two magnificent sailboats, including a voyage on the Clipper City where junior pirates, mermaids and sailors cruise to the Statue of Liberty by day or by night. Best for Catching Your Own DinnerMarilyn Jean IV Departs from Pier 6, 2100 Emmons Avenue in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn $50-$60 no discount for children Year-round This deep-sea fishing party boat provides everything you need to catch the big one: rod, reel and bait. Plus, the crew cleans up and packs your catches, which, depending on the season, may include striped bass, bluefish, sea bass or cod. During peak season, the boat offers day and night jaunts, and you can bring a cooler with snacks if you don't want to buy them on board. You must reserve your spot in advance. Best for Watching WildlifeAudubon EcoCruises Departs from Pier 16 at the South Street Seaport $35-$60 for adults, $$25-$50 for children ages 3-12 Various dates, see website for complete schedule. On select summer Sundays, New York Water Taxi hosts eco-tours with Audubon Society naturalists. Head north to the Bronx or east to Queens to marvel at the birds that live right here in NYC, including black-crowned night-herons, the glossy Ibis, double-crested cormorants, and egrets. We went on the Jamaica Bay Eco Cruise and it's great for older kids interested in nature. Whale and Dolphin Watching Adventure Cruises Departs from Riis Landing at the intersection of State and Heinzelman Roads $45 for adults, $30 for children ages 5-12 Weekends, May 23-28, 1pm-5pm; Wednesday-Friday, June 17-August 27 noon-4pm The American Princess Fleet is the only whale watching operator in all of NYC. Cruises depart from Queens' Jacob Riis Park. These summer-only outings recently started for the season and already passengers have spotted some playful dolphins in our waters. Best for Penny-pinchersStaten Island Ferry Departs from Whitehall Terminal at State and Whitehall Streets FREE Year-round See the Statue of Liberty from afar at no cost on the Staten Island Ferry. A one-way trip takes 30 minutes and offers magnificent views of the Harbor. While waiting for your return ride, check out the Manhattan skyline from the terminal's outdoor patio, watch the fish swimming in the two giant freshwater aquariums in the waiting room or grab a snack. Better yet, explore the family-friendly neighborhood of St. George. Ikea Water Taxi Departs from Pier 11 at South Street and Gouverneur Lane FREE to $5 Year-round The Ikea ferry is a convenient way to get to the megastore in Red Hook, Brooklyn, but also a fun and sometimes free ride. If you go on the weekend, the trip is gratis. On weekdays, you pay $5 each way, but you can redeem your ticket for a credit toward your purchase of $10 or more. Children under 12 ride for free at all times. Whatever you buy, remember it has to fit in a large Ikea bag otherwise it won't be allowed on the boat. Best for LandlubbersModel SailboatsKerbs Boathouse Cafe and Central Park Sailboat Concession, 75th Street on the eastern side of Central Park. $11 for 30 minutes If you prefer the kids do their boating from solid ground, they might enjoy sailing a model boat around the Conservatory Water in Central Park.

Degree Programs Offered:
Physics, the study of matter and energy, is at the root of every field of natural science and underlies all physical phenomena. The problem-solving skills learned in the study of physics are valuable even if one's career is not in a physics-related field.
The BS with a major in Physics provides a rigorous background in physics as a preparation for graduate studies or a career in industry. The BA with a major in Physics is for students who want a background in physics but plan to pursue fields of interest other than physics as a life's work.
Career opportunities for a physics major exist in a wide variety of settings-from teaching in a classroom to basic research in an industrial or government laboratory, as a self-employed consultant, or as a member of a multidisciplinary research team.

AstraZeneca and the Medical Research Council (MRC) announced that they have signed into a new collaboration which aims to gain a better understanding of human disease mechanisms. The partnership will establish a joint research facility at AstraZeneca's R&D center in Cambridge, UK.
Menelas Pangalos, EVP of Innovative Medicines and Early Development at AstraZeneca, said, "This major strategic alliance with the MRC is the first of its kind. It will further AstraZeneca's aim of creating a truly innovative and collaborative research environment at our new site in Cambridge, where our teams will work side by side with world leading MRC scientists. Through this collaboration AstraZeneca and the MRC will push the boundaries of science to accelerate drug discovery and the development of new medicines here in the UK."
The collaboration will run for an initial period of five years. Academic researchers will be given unprecedented access to over two million molecules in the company's compound library, as well as its screening facilities. The MRC in turn will fund up to 15 screening proposals from a wide range of therapy areas and diseases, which will be carried out at the Center for Lead Discovery. AstraZeneca reserves the right to the first option to negotiate license for any resulting drug discovery relevant to its therapeutic areas of interest. If the company does not use the option, researchers can offer negotiations to other parties.
John Savill, CEO of the MRC, said, "This is a unique collaboration that will give MRC researchers unparalleled access to AstraZeneca's state-of-the-art screening capabilities, world-leading infrastructure, and an extensive, high quality compound library. The agreement demonstrates the MRC and AstraZeneca's commitment to long term investment in UK infrastructure. It is an exciting move that will fast-track research that might not otherwise have been carried out, and will ultimately mean better treatments for patients."
The company said that some initial projects may begin as early as 2015 based on its existing research facilities.

Terra Prix 2085: Race the World!
The year is 2080.
Oil is scarce. The world is almost 4 degrees celsius warmer than it is now. Most of the coral reef has died off and several oceans have been declared disaster zones due to high acidity and over-polution. Ecosystems are rapidly changing and weather systems around the world are almost completely unpredictable. Common materials are becoming difficult to get and extremely expensive, and recycling is becoming cheaper. Landfills are now a source for materials and are being scavenged to recuperate plastics, metals, and other materials that could be re-used and incorporated in modern devices.
The world population has just surpassed 9.1 billion people. Most of these citizens live in huge Mega Cities, and are connected by vast networks of roads, super-highways and high speed train systems. Transportation around cities is close to zero emissions, and most civilian vehicles have incorporated a cradle to cradle design methodology to them. Electricity and super-capacitors power most vehicles, and most of the electricity comes form thorium based nuclear reactors which are cleaner, less risky and more efficient than uranium-based reactors built in the 20th century. Within these "megalopolises" driving systems are almost completely automated and a powerful satellite based system drives your car for you (if your lucky to own your own vehicle), relinquishing control from your vehicle. Computers are now trusted more than humans.
Nano-technology has seen rapid advancements and is now part of almost everything people use on a daily basis. Organs can be re-built in a matter of days. Life expectancy in developed countries has now doubled, and the aging process has been slowed dramatically thanks to break-thorughs in bio-technologies. Cell-Phones are now a chip inserted just behind your ear, and computers are the size of a hearing aid with a monitor built into one contact lens and a motion sensing system built into the other contact lens. Controlling certain systems is a matter of making a simple motion with your hand or arm.
Outside of the Mega Cities are vast areas of abandoned land. Most city dwellers have never seen the countryside or experienced nature due to the difficulty of leaving the megalopolises. These citizens are simply part of a huge system that is hard to escape. Because they are so shielded from the environment and nature, they have very little knowledge about what is out there, and their actual impact on the environment.
While there have been many technological and biological breakthroughs in the past 70 years, the world is still facing an environmental crisis on a massive scale.
In an effort to raise awareness for the environment and test several new technologies that could be incorporated into long distance transport vehicles as well as environmental research vehicles, the Terra-Pax Organization has joined forces with the International Prototype Racing Federation(IPRF) to organize Terra Prix 2085: A race around the world traversing all 7 continents and involving nearly every terrain imaginable.
Terra-Pax and the IPRF have given race teams 5 years to design, engineer, build and test their race vehicles and support crafts.
Terra Prix - The Race:
There have been races around the world in the past, but Terra Prix is a completely new kind of race. Terra-Pax and the International Prototype Racing Federation are challenging teams to build 1 race vehicle and at least 1 airborne support craft that can make the voyage around the world - A voyage of almost 51,000 miles (82,000Km). There will be a total of five checkpoints where teams can stock up on supplies and parts. Other than those checkpoints teams must be self sufficient and carry enough provisions to complete the race.
There will be five main stages to the race:
1. Africa to Russia: Cape Town, South Africa to Moscow, Russia. (Checkpoint 1: Moscow, Russia)
2. Russia To America: Moscow, Russia to Anchorage Alaska, USA, (Checkpoint 2: Anchorage, Alaska.)
3. The Americas: Anchorage Alaska, USA to Rio Grande, Agentina (Checkpoint 3: Rio Grande)
4. Antarctica to Australia (Rio Grande, Argentina, through Antarctica, to Sydney, Australia (Checkpoint 4: Sydney, Australia)
5. Australia to the Finish- Sydney Austrailia to Johannesburg, South Africa.
(Note: Local Motors has updated the Race Route, so it is slightly different than the route previously uploaded. Now the race route goes through New Zealand, and after traversing northern India goes north through Kazakhstan, russia, Ukrane, and then south through Romania and Greece. These changes were made due to requests from the community.)
Within these five main stages there will be multiple smaller "sub-stages" -- these are the stages that are able to be completed on a daily basis. Some substages will last two or even three days depending on the terrain and complexity of the stage - thus the ability to have quick driver changes is important for these multi-day races. These substages are intended to test multiple aspects of the racing vehicle -- some will be about endurance, others will be about top speed, while others will be about performance over challenging terrain.
If at any point in the race a race team is not able to repair their race vehicle, it must be loaded onto the support craft and taken to the next checkpoint.
Terra Prix is won by the the amount of ground traveled in the least amount of time. This means that if a race vehicle breaks down, it can be repaired either on the ground or on the support craft, but any distance it travels in the support craft does not count as distance traveled.
To qualify as a race team for Terra Prix your team must consist of at least 15 people:
1 Team leader
4 Race Vehicle Drivers/ Navigators
6 Pit Crew/ Mechanics
4 Support Craft operators/ pilots.
You may have more members, but keep in mind each additional member is one more person you must provide provisions for on the support craft.
The Vehicles and their Requirements:
The Race Vehicle:
The race vehicle must have at least three points of contact with the ground -- hovering is not allowed.
All propulsion must be mechanical and physical i.e. wheels powered by electric motors, internal combustion motors which transfer power to the wheels/ tracks. The use of jet engines/ turbine motors which produce thrust to propel the vehicle is not allowed, however a turbine engine which produces electricity for an electric motor is allowed.
The race vehicle must contain a cockpit for two people: Driver and Navigator. Layout is up to you, but keep in mind both the driver and navigator must be able to clearly communicate with one another. It also must accommodate a high powered lighting system for racing at night or in bad weather.
The main body of the race vehicle which contains the cockpit, cargo bay, and main energy source (electric or fuel) cannot be altered during the race. However to cope with multitudes of terrain, the race vehicle can have different modules that attach to it (Caterpillar tracks, skis, paddle tires, etc. for example)
Your Race vehicle must have a cargo bay that can fit required items: extra parts and tools in case of a break down, First Aid Kit, ice picks and shovel, fire suppression and 500ft (150m) of rope, as well as enough water for two people for two days.
It also must have four points on the main hull from which the race vehicle can be picked up by IPRF aircraft in the case that your vehicle is in danger or could cause danger.
Finally, your vehicle must be able to fit in a IPFR cargo container measuring 50 feet (15m) long, by 15 feet (4.57m) wide by 15 feet (4.57m) tall. When fully assembled it cannot exceed these dimensions.
The Support Craft:
The support craft is your airborne home away from home. It is a crucial vehicle in the success of each Terra Prix team. Essentially your support vehicle must carry everything necessary to keep the race team happy, and to keep the race vehicle driving.
Your support craft must be able to carry the entire crew of at least 15 team members and enough provisions between checkpoints, plus the race vehicle.
In addition to this, it must be able to carry tools, extra parts, and the various modules (if you have them) that are changed on your vehicle for different terrain. It also must carry enough 'fuel' for the race vehicle, AND the support craft to keep both moving between the 3 major checkpoints.
Other than this, you are free to be as creative as you would like to be regarding the support craft. There is no size restriction but it must fly -- keep in mind the bigger it is, the slower it is-- and in certain parts of the world weather may be extremely rough on the flying craft. If you choose to design more than one support vehicle, please make sure it is included on your design boards.
Here is what will be accepted (Deliverables):
Please submit at least 3 design boards consisting of:
Race Vehicle Board:
1 3/4 Front view
1 3/4 Rear view
1 view of your choice
1 view showing how it would fit into the cargo container
Main Support Vehicle Board:
1 profile view
3 views of your choice showing the different areas of your support vehicle (living quarters, cargo area etc)
Mise En Scene Board (Scenic Rendering board)
1 view of your race vehicle in it's elements -- this is more of a final rendering akin to the inspirational imagery.
You can do up to 10 design boards, but the three above are the required deliverables.
A New Selection Process:
We are excited to announce that Terra Prix will the first Local Motors design competitoin that will incorporate a panel of judges to choose a winning design in addition to the winning design chosen by the design community.
We are even more excited to announce who those judges are!
We have invited none other than:
Harald Belker (http://www.haraldbelker.com/) --
Syd Mead (http://www.sydmead.com/) --
Scott Robertson (http://www.drawthrough.com/) (http://drawthrough.blogspot.com/)
Daniel Simon (http://www.danielsimon.net/) (http://www.cosmic-motors.com/main.html)
All four of them graciously accepted our invitations and they will be the judges for Terra Prix 2085! No pressure ;)
Check out their bio's in the Bio Tab above.
In addition to being the first Local Motors competiton to incorporate a judging panel, we will also be giving away a total of 10 prizes.
• 1st Place prize selected by the Judging Panel
• 2nd Place Prize selected by the Judging Panel
• 3rd Place Prize selected by the Judging Panel

Dates for this competitoin:UPDATED!
Launch: May 10th
Submission Window Opens: May 31st.
Submission Window Closes: June 14th.
Voting Begins: June 14th.
Voting Ends: June 21st.
A few other changes to this competition:
We have listened to your feedback from the previous competiton and in additon to having an incredibly prestigious judging panel, we have put in place a few more changes:
• Voting will not start until all entries are submitted.
• There will only be one week for submissions instead of three, but more time for checkup and feedback.
• Your checkups will be threaded to your entries, so viewers will be able to see how your entries progressed during the checkup phase.
• We have implimented a "Voting Dashboard" that will allow you to see an overview of how you have voted and what entries you have voted on.
• We have a competition specific forum right below this Design brief where you can ask questions related specifically to this competition.
And lastly: The Header
Since Terra Prix was a competitoin developed by you, the community, in co-creation with the Local Motors design team, I thought I'd give you something fun to do-- this is your competitoin, so why not have the header come from the community as well. As you may have noticed, if you design a better header, I will enter you into a drawing for a book from DesignStudioPress.com. I hope that the header will change soon-- whichever one is used will live on forever on the Local Motors website! Send the header proposals to Nyko at email@example.com.
Good Luck everyone! Go Local!

It's going to be a little noisier than usual around Craven County this week.
The Daily News of Jacksonville reports a military exercise began Monday and continues through Friday. Increased aircraft noise is expected for residents living around Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, New River and Marine Corps Auxiliary Landing Field Bogue.
Ground crews with the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing will train at conducting hot refuel and reload of aircraft between flights while the aircraft's engines are still running. The military says that helps decrease turnaround time so the aircraft can remain in the air longer during heavy operations.

Quilt is a collection of photos I took via phone, edited in phone and posted to IG. I used a lot of editing apps in iOs for some shots and none for others. Hipstamatic; KitCam; Vintique; ProCam; ProHDR; Instasize; Olloclip, you name it... I more than likely used it to compose these images. This is what is going on. Street, landscape and nature photography done by smartphone and/or tablet (mine were all phone). Check it out and enjoy!
I just love to see and experience what this life has to offer!

The two players select their moves, and so the information about both the moves gets sent to the "host player", and the entire outcome of that round gets calculated and decided locally in the "host player's" game. The game then simply sends the results of the round to the opposing player, and the game visually represents what is going on. Having it localised at one end, rather than putting the pieces together at both ends, could eliminate possible syncing errors.
I thought about that at first, but battles would take a long time (playing out each round for the host first then for the opponent, rather than simultaneously, plus the unavoidable thinking time). There'd also potentially be a lot of information to transfer per round (e.g. order of attacks, Tri-Attack's effect, number of hits in a multi-hit move, whether Focus Band and other items/abilities work, how much damage is dealt by an attack, etc.). Basically, everything that uses a random number, plus probably some other things too.
I figured that, since using the same RNG seed means you get the same random numbers, battles wouldn't desync if you did that. At least, that's how I understand it would work. The lottery mini-game works on the same principle (setting a seed depending on the day so the lucky number is always the same in a given day).
It would be more secure to have the battle worked out by a host, but I don't think there'd be any risk in skimping on that in favour of convenience (faster, less information to transmit, etc.). I can't think of anything else that would cause desync.
