What to do about North Korea
Author: Peter Drysdale, Editor, East Asia Forum
North Korea's latest nuclear test, on 12 February, has left the international community in a quandary about what to do to rein in Pyongyang's ambitions for nuclear power status.
Even China has become more and more frustrated with North Korea's failure to take its cautionary advice and now appears more willing to join tougher collective sanctions, if not take unilateral action, to put the squeeze on its troublesome neighbour.
In this week's lead essay one of China's leading foreign affairs analysts, Jia Qingguo of Peking University, points out that 'China has persistently tried to help North Korea to sustain its economy and shield it from tougher international reactions to its unpredictable and threatening behaviour on the development of nuclear weapons and missiles. But despite this help, Pyongyang does not seem to listen to Beijing'. Pyongyang's going ahead with another nuclear test — against Beijing's advice — 'has led to significant changes in the Chinese debate over how to deal with the North Korean problem'.
Jia argues that Beijing's policy on North Korea has always sought a balance between two objectives: stability and denuclearisation. 'Beijing desires stability in the Korean Peninsula because it believes that a stable and friendly North Korea is in China's long-term strategic interest. It also believes, as a practical matter, that conflict in the Korean Peninsula would not only jeopardise China's security but also bring with it a serious refugee problem'.
But like the rest of the international community, China does not want a nuclear-armed North Korea, both for strategic and practical reasons. Beijing believes, according to Jia, that Pyongyang's efforts to develop nuclear weapons would undermine the nuclear non-proliferation regime in which China is invested strategically. China also has four very practical reasons for avoiding a nuclear North Korea: Pyongyang's efforts to develop nuclear weapons would prompt China's neighbours, especially Japan and South Korea, to do the same and increase the chance of a nuclear war along Chinese border; Pyongyang's efforts to develop nuclear weapons threatens to invite a pre-emptive strike from the United States; given Pyongyang's dire economic circumstance, North Korea may also be tempted to sell nuclear technology or even nuclear weapons to recover some of the costs of its development — the likely buyers being international terrorist groups; and, even if Pyongyang does not sell nuclear technologies or weapons to terrorists they could fall into the wrong hands if Pyongyang collapses, which is not implausible given the mounting political and economic problems in the country.
The dilemma for China's policy strategists, given these concerns, has been whether to choose stability or denuclearisation. Stability emphasised opposition to pre-emptive attacks against North Korea and resistance to tough international sanctions that threaten to bring down the North Korean government. Denuclearisation required the endorsement of tougher sanctions that sought to force Pyongyang to give up developing nuclear weapons. Beijing has so far opted for stability over denuclearisation, but following the latest test, the mood in Beijing has shifted discernibly towards emphasising the denuclearisation objective. Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi called in North Korea's Ambassador to China to issue a stern warning. Even the generally anti-Western Global Times argued that China should cut back its aid to Pyongyang.
Whatever new sanctions Beijing signs on to, it will nonetheless do whatever it can to avoid the chaos that would follow a North Korean collapse. So what can the international community really do about North Korea, even with a little more help from China though perhaps rather less from Russia?
What has always been clear is that its nuclear capacity has no security value to North Korea except as a lever to extort resources or extract a peace accord with the United States and the other Parties to the Six Party Talks. It is of little value as a weapons system in the near future. North Korea needs substantial inputs of food, fuel, fertiliser, foreign currency, and other things, simply to survive. And if its aim is to attain long-term economic and political security it must secure a peace agreement with the United States. Trade embargoes, other international sanctions and the tight United States-South Korea-Japan policy coordination, now have North Korea on a Chinese drip that is likely to offer less and less sustenance now. North Korean regime survival increasingly points to the one way out — to negotiate terms for stopping, rolling back, and relinquishing its nuclear and missile programs in return for peace and economic as well as political security.
This sharp reality does not mean that the time for negotiation with Pyongyang has ended. Rather that time for negotiation is more urgent and its purpose is more sharply focused. It certainly doesn't mean, as Emma Campbell's piece on this Forum made clear, that this is a time to reject diplomatic initiative from Pyongyang (including through its desire to re-open its embassy in Canberra). It is a time, as the Obama administration has made clear, for pause, but also for intensification of, not for stopping, active negotiations preconditioned on a nuclear development freeze.

Two points if I may.
I would take issue with your assertion that a nuclear weapons capacity has no security value to North Korea, and little value as a weapons system in the near future.
What it will mean when further developed (and probably means already) is that North Korea will not be able to be pushed around. Every time South Korea and the United States hold joint military exercises on the peninsula (and they have been held at least annually, since the armistice), the North Koreans feel threatened with the spectre of invasion and regime change. Like all countries with nuclear weapons in their armouries, they will feel a bit safer from this threat. If these deliberately provocative exercises had not been held, the North may not have advanced so far along the road towards a nuclear arsenal. Equally, if George W Bush and Jesse Helms had not, separately, been so determined to dismantle the Framework Agreement negotiated on behalf of President Clinton by Jimmy Carter in the early 1990s, we might now be witnessing a more stable, nuclear-free Korean peninsula.
Second, in using the word 'extort'- for either food, fuel or a peace agreement – you use the vocabulary of the more belligerent western observers who insist North Korea is a gangster, a rogue state without principle, predictability or intelligent moral direction. Other countries, notably the United States, frequently 'extort' in pursuit of their foreign policy objectives, but we don't condemn them for doing so. The good news is that Pyongyang still wants a peace agreement with Washington, one that guarantees it against invasion or regime change, and it may not yet be too late to get them to dismantle their fledgling nuclear weapons program in exchange for one. But it will be increasingly unproductive for Washington to lay down conditions for nuclear disarmament before sitting down to talk, either bilaterally, or in future Six Party talks.
For several years, Pyongyang acted in good faith under the Framework Arrangements – adhered to the NPT, invited US technicians and nuclear engineers in to North Korea to oversee the dismantling of a reactor at Yongpyon, and devised a safe way to dispose of spent fuel rods without turning the plutonium into weapons fuel. They only stopped when it became clear that they would never get the two Westinghouse power reactors promised them.
All the other disadvantages your article enumerates about North Korea going nuclear – instability on the peninsula, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan being tempted to weaponise, selling nuclear components to terrorists – are dismal possibilities. But with more diplomatic flexibility, they may not have figured on the present horizon. Talk about missed opportunities!
Richard Broinowski
Perhaps I did not communicate clearly enough. I meant deliverable military value in a narrow sense, Richard.
On the word 'extort', I agree I am using the language of others not language I would wish to endorse.

|Vandals Set for WAC Play
MOSCOW, Idaho—The Idaho Vandals Soccer team begins conference play at home on Sunday. Pete Showler's squad will welcome in Western Athletic Conference newcomers, Grand Canyon. The Vandals 0-7 start is a thing of the past and they are looking forward to the second half of the season.
"We have had review stages," Showler said before practice on Thursday. "We have had review sessions after the exhibition game, the non-conference season and now we will move on to the conference season. The girls have set goals for themselves. Our aim is to attain those goals, to push towards them and hopefully break through them. The main focus is to get to the WAC tournament and win it."
The Vandals are coming off a heartbreaking finish to the non-conference season. Both Eastern Washington and UNLV came to Guy Wicks Field and walked away with one-goal victories. The Vandals played UNLV to a scoreless tie for 108 minutes, before allowing the golden goal in the waning moments of the final overtime. Without a game on Friday this week the Vandals have an extra day to recover and prep for the 'Lopes.
"With playing a double-overtime game over the weekend it's always nice for the girls to get an extra day here and there," Showler expressed. "We have been working hard early on this week. We will keep pushing the things we have been doing well and work on our strengths. There are a lot of positive to build on from the weekend."
Grand Canyon (1-5-0) enters the weekend as the lowest scoring team in the WAC. They have managed only one goal in 2013. The lone goal also gave Grand Canyon its lone win, a 1-0 shutout of Colorado State, also new to Division I soccer in 2013. The 'Lopes have kept in games on the defensive side of the field, allowing a WAC best eight goals this season. The 'Lopes begin WAC play on Friday at Seattle U, before heading east to Moscow.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Phaedra Parks hasn't been a big part of the show this season and it could hint that she is on the way out of the show. Of course, she is busy with her law business and her two sons, but there could be another reason why she hasn't been on the show - her husband's legal troubles. And her future on television could be in trouble. According to a new Radar Online report published on Feb. 24, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Phaedra Parks' spin-off show may be in trouble after Apollo's recent fraud charges.
"Phaedra and Apollo were doing a spin-off show, which is called "Rich People's Problems," and it was supposed to premiere later on this year," Wendy Williams has said on her show. It is no secret that she has had a feud with the couple of quite some time. Wendy tends to speak her mind about the cast members, including harsh comments.
"It follows Phaedra as she does the legal eagle thing for rich people in Atlanta. She's perfectly boring on The Housewives, so God only knows why they would give her a spin-off show. Now that Apollo's facing up to 30 years in prison, for bank fraud and identity theft — Bravo wants to wash their hands of that little spin-off show," Wendy speculated.
Of course, Bravo hasn't said much about this spin-off. In fact, they have not officially announced the spin-off, but it sounds like Wendy thinks the network is scrambling to figure out what they want to do with it. They have been filming Teresa Giudice and her legal troubles on the show, but it sounds like they won't be filming Apollo's troubles even though it could lead to some good ratings.
Would you watch it?

Feeling fit and fabulous in my forties.
I am a nurse for a busy Obgyn/Oncologist. I have a supportive loving husband that is currently deployed again. I have two beautiful girls heading into their teens. It's wonderful watching them turn into young ladies.
My girls got me motivated to learn how to snowboard. Now I can't wait to hit the slopes. I workout three times a week with a trainer and exercise on a daily basis.
This is the healthiest I have ever been in my lifetime. I finally feel comfortable with my body. I have never felt better in my life physically and emotionally. At age 44, soon to be 45, I feel at peace with life and know who I am. It's never to late to feel and look great. What a fabulous time in my life. I am so blessed!

Florida Tech is One of the Top Biomedical Engineering Schools
Located in the Nation's Fourth Largest High-Tech Workforce
The biomedical engineering program at Florida Tech is a close-knit community with faculty members who are passionate about student success. As one of the top biomedical engineering schools, our students benefit from one-on-one guidance from professors and industry leaders, made possible by small class sizes, research and internship opportunities and the dedication of our faculty and industry partners to mentor students.
Experienced and Knowledgeable Faculty
Florida Tech's faculty is a main reason why we're one of the top biomedical engineering schools. Many faculty members are involved in research related to biomedical engineering and are experts in mechanical and aerospace engineering, chemical engineering, electrical and computer engineering, and computer science.
These same professors showcase their biomedical engineering expertise in a variety of areas including optical tomography for cancer detection, blast-related injury research, speech production, artificial intelligence, and orthopedics and medical trauma prevention. Its no wonder students choose Florida Tech when considering the top biomedical engineering schools.
High-Tech Laboratories
The many resources and facilities on campus help make Florida Tech one of the top biomedical engineering schools – supporting student research and projects in numerous areas of biomedical engineering. These include:
- Machine shop
- Electronic shop
- Laser, optics and instrumentation laboratory
- Structural testing laboratory
- Applied perception laboratory
- Materials laboratory
In addition, students can make use of the High Resolution Microscopy and Advanced Imaging Center in the Department of Biological Sciences, which also houses facilities for the culture of eukaryotic cells.
High-Tech Experiences
Through the ProTrack Engineering Cooperative program and capstone projects, students work closely with industry leaders from companies such as Apple Inc., Google and Electronic Arts and with a faculty advisor and local physicians in hospitals and medical institutions.
Another way that Florida Tech remains one of the top biomedical engineering schools is by offering a six- to seven-week clinical immersion experience to select undergraduate students. The clinical immersions are held at NASA Kennedy Space Center (KSC) and at various hospitals and institutes such as Health First Hospitals, Orlando VA Medical Center, The Eye Institute, The Back Center, Cancer Care Center of Brevard, Neural Engineering Clinic, and Tampa VA Hospital.
Learn, Work and Play at a Top Biomedical Engineering School
Another reason why students choose to enroll in the Florida Tech biomedical engineering program is because of our prime location – a location that other top biomedical engineering schools simply cannot compete. We're located in the heart of Florida's Space Coast, which puts our 130-acre campus near the nation's fourth largest high-tech workforce and over 5,000 high-tech companies.
Our students also enjoy year-round beautiful weather, and are just minutes away from 72 miles of Atlantic Coast beaches and the Indian River Lagoon. What's more, we are an hour drive away from the NASA Kennedy Space Center and Orlando attractions such as Disney World and Universal Studios. Whether it's to learn, work or play, our students can do it all at one of the top biomedical engineering schools.

After two days of bluebird conditions, the Eric Hays Memorial ran its first slalom race under a blanket of snow Thursday at Park City Mountain Resort.
As skiers from the collegiate level down to the under-14 age group cruised the course, footing and visibility was a struggle.
But, as Park City Ski Team director Jesse Hunt noted, that's all part of the sport.
"It's an outdoor sport, so you never know what to expect," he said. "We schedule these races in May and we never know what we're going to get for weather. Typically, at least one of the four-day series is a tough day in regards to the conditions and the weather. We've had two good days and one tough day [Thursday], and we're looking at another good day [Friday] (after this issue went to press). Three out of four isn't bad in terms of good weather, good snow and good conditions."
For the 32nd year in a row, the Eric Hays Memorial has been a sort of unofficial start to the season for skiers from the region.
"It kind of opens up the season it's the first big USSA event we run in the division," Hunt said. "The whole division Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, everybody is kind of waiting to see how their summer and fall training went coming into this event."
And, since the event draws some collegiate skiers who graduated from the Park City program, it's always fun to see some familiar faces.
"Syd Staples from the University of New Mexico, Katy Greene from Middlebury and Christoph Lentz, who won the slalom [Thursday] from Williams they're back in town for Christmas and they're joining in," Hunt said.
At the Eric Hays Memorial, there are no age groups, so the U14 athletes get to test their skills against the older college athletes. That's something Hunt says provides a unique atmosphere.
"There's a wide spread in terms of age and ability and it's just fun to see a lot of our kids out here racing," he said.
And, he added, it's the perfect way to remember Eric Hays, a Park City Ski Team member in the late '70s who died in a car accident.
"We've memorialized this event here for him, and we've been running it ever since," Hunt said. "It's got a lot of history and a lot of tradition."
It's also a great way to build some stamina in the younger athletes, who aren't used to having a week full of races.
"It's a long event for the younger kids, having four straight days of racing," Hunt said. "We've done two giant slaloms and a slalom and I think the kids are looking forward to getting some good conditions with the last slalom so they can really show themselves."
Sydney Staples, Juliette Parke and Katy Greene finished with podium spots at the first female GS, and finished in the same order at the second GS. On the male side, Peter Martens and Andrew Miller of the Park City Ski Team finished first and third, respectively, in the first GS, with James Cleason taking second. In the second men's GS, Hayes Graham, Martens and Miller finished first, second and third to earn a Park City Ski Team podium sweep.
In the first women's slalom on Thursday, Lauren Keller and Claire Thomas finished second and third for the Park City Ski Team, while Liz Baer took first. On the men's side, Christoph Lentz (a PCST alum) took first, current PCST skier Jerry Todd Abate took second and Cole Wright took third.

Faulty joystick on X5
I received my X5 two weeks ago and have been overwhelmed by the overall quality. However, the joystick started to act a bit weird yesterday. I have not yet been in direct contact with the company I purchased from as the product has been used and I have had weird experience with iriver, so thought I would get advice from those who know...
Q: Shall I contact Cowon UK (if it exists) and deal with them direct or shall I persevere with trying to contact the third party seller?
I have kept all the original packaging and have a copy of bill of sale. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all
|[Remove Advertisement]
IMHO you should ALWAYS contact the producer directly instead of having all the fuzz with retailers and/or importers.
I contacted (called) Cowon-Europe directly and even had a nice little chat with the COWON-Europe Boss and the engineer that fixed my X5 later on.
They're located in Germany btw and they speak english too:
Cowon Europe GmbH
Mergenthalerallee 55-59
Germany - 65760 Eschborn bei Frankfurt/Main
Phone: +49 (06196) 76916-60
However, you should also know that I sold my X5 just because of its really fault prone joystick-controller, though it wasn't the only reason.
Reason 1: A broken joystick - two months after RMA/repair the symptoms showed up again.(click to the left didn't work every time)
Reason 2: Overall battery-life decreased after 6 months by 50%. (fixed with RMA but a known X5-issue - at least first models)
You know, I'm the kind of person that's able to sell used gadgets in mint-condition because I treat my gadgets like raw eggs. But wearing my X5 in my trousers pocket back then just didn't work well. If you don't want to sell your surely beloved X5 you should buy a decent case that protects the joystick from any stress.
However, my broken Joystick and the 50% worn off battery took 1 and a half weeks for the whole RMA-process (Austria/Vienna --> Germany/Frankfurt --> Austria/Vienna).
Btw, I bought a CREATIVE Zen Vision:M instead cause I was sure that the joystick would fail on me again and again and again. Don't get me wrong, I still think the X5 is one of the best HDD-DAP's around (BBE-Sound!!!), but its failure-prone joystick is/was a complete nogo for me. What a pitty!
Hope I could provide you with some useful information.

That is confused relevant to stuff. Stuff is needed unless you are sure that and run with this things strategy and also finally you might even be able to this. This is a modus operandi t obtaining this. You can take that a large majority of punks were lost without stuff.

Apple Keyboard with OpenSolaris
By Doug Simon on Jul 20, 2010
I use Macs most of the time so when at my OpenSolaris workstation, I'd like to use one of my spare Apple keyboards for a consistent experience. This almost works without any modification. However, the left Command/Apple key is not interpreted as "Alt" by OpenSolaris. Thankfully I found this thread which describes a workaround using xmodmap(1) and xev(1). The latter is a little X graphical app that shows you all X events sent to a window. Using this, I found that the keycode for the Command/Apple key is 115. Using xmodmap, I can now map this key to "Alt" with the following commands:
% xmodmap -e 'clear Mod4' % xmodmap -e 'keycode 115 = Alt_L'
To make this permanent, I simply put these two commands into a script (e.g. $HOME/bin/apple_keyboard.sh) and add it as a new startup program (System -> Preferences -> Sessions -> Add).

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- Four Bradley University intercollegiate athletic teams were recognized by the NCAA Wednesday for posting a multiyear Academic Progress Rate (APR) among the top 10 percent in the country in their respective sports.
Bradley is one of 62 NCAA Division I institutions and one of two Missouri Valley Conference schools to have at least one team recognized in each of the eight years of the NCAA's APR Public Recognition Award. The women's basketball, women's cross country, women's golf and women's tennis teams earned the distinction and were among 976 NCAA Division I teams and 21 squads from the Missouri Valley Conference.
"We are proud of the student-athletes for their continued academic success and would like to acknowledge the combined efforts of the student-athletes, coaches, faculty and support staff which resulted in this national recognition," said Associate Athletic Director for Academics and Student Welfare Jen Jones.
The Bradley women's tennis team is the only program in the Missouri Valley Conference to claim the APR Public Recognition Award each of the eight years of the program, while both the women's cross country and women's golf teams were both recognized for the fourth consecutive year. The Bradley women's basketball team garnered the award for the second time and was one of two MVC women's basketball teams honored.
Bradley tied Evansville for second in The Valley with four team awards, behind Northern Iowa's league-high five selections. No other Valley institution had more than two honorees. The NCAA will release full APR scores June 11.
Each year, the NCAA tracks the classroom performance of student-athletes on every Division I team through the annual scorecard of academic achievement, known as APR. The score measures eligibility and retention each semester or quarter and provides a clear picture of the academic culture in each sport. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 academic years.

College Hockey:Clarkson Comeback Keeps Streak Alive
Poapst Posts Two Goals, Assist
POTSDAM, N.Y. — Matt Poapst's second goal of the evening capped a three-goal second period and helped to extend Clarkson's win streak to four games as the Golden Knights held off a late charge by Dartmouth, 4-3.
A Dartmouth penalty for too many men on the ice gave Clarkson (9-6-3, 4-2-2 ECAC) a five-on-three advantage, and Poapst made it count. Teammate Kent Huskins gave the puck to a waiting Poapst, and Poapst one-timed it past goaltender Nick Boucher.
"We're not about coming [to Potsdam] and playing okay." said coach Bob Gaudet. "I thought our guys played hard, but we shot ourselves in the foot with a real tough call in the second period, and that's the difference in a game."
Dartmouth (7-8-1, 4-4-1 ECAC) has yet to beat Clarkson at Cheel Arena.
Both teams came out in the first period looking to get the first goal, but neither could convert in the opening minutes on opportunities in front of the net.
Clarkson would strike first at 7:20 in the first period. Jason Costa of Dartmouth was whistled for cross-checking, and just over a minute later the Golden Knights would capitalize. Huskins passed the puck to Poapst, stationed at the top of the right faceoff circle, and Poapst rifled a shot through traffic that beat Boucher and gave Clarkson a 1-0 lead.
Boucher almost added to Clarkson's lead on a judgement error. As the puck came into the Dartmouth zone, Boucher skated behind the net to retrieve the puck, and when he sent it back up ice, he inadvertently passed it to Clarkson forward Chris Line as he was streaking towards an empty net.
Even though Clarkson had the advantage over the Big Green, Dartmouth regrouped to tie the game at 11:43 in the first, with a power-play goal by sophomore Kent Gillings.
A delay-of-game penalty was assessed when Marc Garceau knocked the net off its moorings. Dartmouth wasted little time, as Gillings had the puck down low on the right side of goaltender Mike Walsh. Gillings' shot went in front of Walsh unobstructed and bounced in off the far post, knotting the game at one.
The Big Green continued to roll into the second period, as Jamie Herrington picked up an unconventional goal. Dartmouth had the man-advantage, and Herrington got control of the puck deep in the Clarkson zone. Herrington shot the puck from the right corner, and it bounced off the skate of Walsh and trickled into the net before Walsh realized where the puck was, making it 2-1.
Clarkson battled back into the game, and the Golden Knights picked up their second power-play goal of the night at 10:24 in the period on a textbook goal by Don Smith. As he entered the zone, Smith dropped the puck for Dave Evans. While Evans controlled the puck along the boards, Smith drove to the net, and Evans timed the pass perfectly, hitting Smith in the slot and beating Boucher to tie the game, 2-2.
"We've been moving the puck around real well [on the power play] and finding the openings, and we just keep working it." said ECAC player of the week Huskins. Coming into the contest, the Golden Knights were ranked second in the league on the man-advantage at 22 percent.
The Golden Knights wasted little time after the Smith goal to regain the lead, when Chris Bahen picked up the second goal of the period for Clarkson less than a minute later. Bahen took a shot from the center of the Dartmouth zone that was saved by Boucher. However, Boucher was unable to control the rebound, and Bahen lifted it past the prone netminder, putting Clarkson back on top, 3-2.
In the third period, the Big Green kept the puck bottled up in the Clarkson zone, and even with a two-goal lead, it was still anyone's game. The domination paid off for Dartmouth at 9:25.
One second after a Dartmouth power play had expired, Herrington picked up his second goal of the evening when he skated towards the net from the right corner and beat Walsh, making things interesting at a 4-3 Clarkson lead.
Dartmouth pulled Boucher with under two minutes remaining, but could not make the extra attacker pay off.
"We won the hockey game, but we can play better." coach Mark Morris said of his team's effort. "We made a lot of turnovers in critical areas, which we have to avoid if we want to play solid hockey from here on out. On the plus side, the power play is still cooking."
Indeed, the power play proved effective for both teams. The Big Green went 2-for-4, while Clarkson cashed in on three of four attempts. In a rare event, Dartmouth outshot the Golden Knights, 29-28. The Maturo-Gillings-Murray line, which as of late has been hot for Dartmouth, was held to only one goal and one assist.
Mike Walsh picked up his first win against Dartmouth and his third in a row, allowing three goals and stopping 26 shots. Nick Boucher ended the evening with 24 saves and four goals against.
"[Walsh] played pretty well." said Morris. "He won the game. He hasn't been in there all that often, so right now is a proving ground for him to see how much of the load he can carry."
Dartmouth will travel to Canton Saturday to face St. Lawrence, while travel partner Vermont will enter Potsdam looking to end a five-game skid against Clarkson. Clarkson, however, will be without Bahen, who received a disqualification for fighting Friday.

It's a bit quiet this morning so here is a stimulating topic (with a poll attached to ensure democracy triumphs).
What is the future of hi-fi? By future, I don't mean tomorrow, I mean inten or twenty years. I think the future of hi-fi will be music beamed directly into our brains. Do you think this as well? Or do you think it will still be boxes and speakers?
Or perhaps you think we will have 'sonic projectors' that will project sounds onto our walls without the need for speakers? Maybe computers and broadband (with speakers) will be the future? Or perhaps we might be able to train cats to 'sing' and reproduce various music albums? These "singing cats" will be note-for-note perfect compared to the original recording.
What do you think?

If you have kids, have your home tested for lead. Young kids put just about everything in their mouth. When they accidentally ingest paint that has lead in it, they can become very sick and in some cases, they can even die. If you think your child may have ingested lead, bring them to the doctor to get a blood test.
Be consistent in your parenting. When you constantly repeat yourself and you are always making threats without following through, your children will begin to ignore you and lose respect for you. This is actually teaching them not to listen because they will learn that you do not mean what you say. Being consistent will lead to happy children who trust you and know what to expect from you. Choose your battles. Instead of fighting over everything, choose the most important things to fight over. Children desperately need boundaries, but they also need a bit of freedom to find themselves.
It is important to give your child exposure to a plethora of sensory development items. From smelling different foods as you cook, to playing in the sand or at a pool, your child will heartily embrace the chance to explore more of his or her world. Try to find different textures, smells, tastes, and even colors to entertain and develop your child's mind.
Teach your kids to cook so they don't rely on fast food when they're older. Boys and girls alike will feel satisfaction when they are capable of preparing meals for their families and themselves. It is also a fun way to spend time together.
When crib walls begin to become more of a hindrance than a help to your active toddler, a new toddler bed may be in order. It may be scary for the child, so make the experience fun with new, cartoon themed sheets.
Set up a savings account that you will deposit a set amount into every year. Avoid dipping into this fund, as once a parent does this for the first time, they'll be more likely to do it again. Also, it will be surprisingly difficult to replenish the account after such borrowing. You need to ensure your children develop the coping skills they need to overcome the hurdles they'll face in life. By showing your children what you and your partner do to deal with life's complications, they will learn how to cope with similar situations. They will then be more aware of how things work in the real world. A great parenting tip is to not shelter your children too much. Don't tell your children that there are tons of people out there just waiting to kidnap them. This will only instill fear in your child. You have to let your children experience a bit of life, all by themselves. Use your smart phone to soothe your baby with noise. You can download a white noise application and then place the phone near your child. This is particularly useful if you are going for a walk or if your child is riding in the car. You do not have to use white noise; there are a wide range of other calming sounds available.
If you make time for yourself, you will be a better parent. Regardless of how busy your day is, set aside time to take a break and rejuvenate. When you are relaxed and happy, your children will feel that way too.
Your kids will still love you if your put yourself first. In fact, it will teach them to respect themselves which will in turn make them healthier, happier people when they have their own kids. Taking time for yourself leads you to be calmer, more rational, and a better parent overall. When handling undesirable behaviors in children, positive reinforcement should always be used. You should keep in mind that some children experience emotional issues, which they may be incapable of dealing with or expressing in a proper manner. Showing them how to express themselves properly is the best way to help them. When socializing with friends, your child may hear his or her friends using inappropriate language. If you hear him use inappropriate words, let him know that this is not the way he should speak in the family. Do not embarrass him in front of his friends, however, wait until you are alone together before you bring up this subject.

Noriyuki Haga:- "I am very happy that this great team continues to believe in me! I thank Ducati, the team and everyone that was involved in making the decision. I have a great relationship with my team and with Michel, and so I am more than happy to stay here in 2010…Knowing that I have a job for next year will surely spur me on; I will give 200% in Imola this weekend!…"
Michel Fabrizio:- "I'm very happy, I received confirmation of the renewal the day before my birthday and this news was a great end to the week. I'm currently third in the championship and I'll continue to give my all in the final three rounds. At Imola I'm going to go on fighting my own battle, and then we'll see how Nori and I are placed… I'll perhaps change my strategy for the last two races, if need be, in order to assist Nori."

The city of Mathura, in the Uttar Pradesh, which is the nucleus of Brajbhoomi, is situated at a distance of 145 km south-east of the city of Delhi and around 58 km north-west of Agra. Covering a large area of around 3,800 sq. km., today, Brajbhoomi can also be divided into two distinquished units - the eastern part, which is in the trans-Yamuna tract along with places like Gokul, Baldeo, Mahavan, Mat and Bajna whereas the western side of the Yamuna is covering the Mathura region, which encompasses the following places:
- Vrindavan

- Barsana
- Nandgaon
The land of the Braj starts right from Kotban near around Hodel which is 95 km from Delhi and then ends at Runakuta which is especially known for its association with popular poet Surdas, who was an ardent Krishna devotee.
About Lord Shri Krishna:
Shri Krishna, was an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who was born in the Dwapara Yuga as the eighth son of the Vasudev, Yadava prince and his wife Devaki. In order to protect him from the murderous objectives of his maternal uncle Kansa, who was the ruler of Mathura. Then, the infant Krishna was just spirited away soon after the birth to Gokul, which is known as the village of the gopas (cowherds) in the Braj (their pastureland). It was there when he grew to his manhood, in a tender care of his foster parents known as Nand and Yashoda in the happy company of the village cowherds.

The main ghat 'Har ki Pauri' (the footsteps of God) is supposed to be the precise spot where the Ganges leaves the mountains and enters the plains. Consequently the river's power to wash away sins at this spot is superlative and endorsed by a footprint of Vishnu left on a stone here. Every year thousands of tourists visit Haridwar to take a holy dip in the holy Ganges that comes down from the Himalayas.

Project Team
Cassie Scharber, PhDCo-Project Investigator; Assistant Professor, Learning Technologies; Co-Director, LT Media Lab
Cassie is an assistant professor of Learning Technologies and Co-Director of the Learning Technologies Media Lab at the University of Minnesota. Her research explores the nexus of literacy, power, and technology and the possibilities technology offers in aiding the transformation of teaching and learning.
Cassie is currently the co-editor of the Digital Literacies column for the Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacies. She is also a co-investigator of a research project called DigMe that focuses on understanding at‐risk adolescents' engagement within a project-based, technology-rich program at a local urban high school.
What is education to you?
For me, education is literacy. In the words of Paulo Freire, a person needs to be "able to read the word and the world". I prefer to define literacy within a New Literacies perspective and believe that education, as well as literacy, is contextual, cultural, and constantly changing.
Justin EvidonField Media Specialist, LT Media Lab
Justin is the photographer, videographer and media relations representative for the Learning Technologies Media Lab at the University of Minnesota. An American citizen born in Germany, he attended the International School of Hamburg until 1998, when he returned to the US with his family and subsequently began his studies at the University of Minnesota in 2001.
Completing a degree in German Studies in 2006, Justin remained on campus as an employee in various roles, including IT professional and photographer. His experience in outdoor adventure, wedding, sport, and commercial photography have all provided important lessons that inform his current work, and his IT background, the skill to be able to disseminate his work from the studio, street, or backcountry.
What is education to you?
Education is the cornerstone of life. Through education we are able to better communicate with others, and improve our understanding of the world we live in.
Bradford HosackNew Media Developer, LT Media Lab
Brad Hosack is an award-winning designer with over 14 years of experience in the field. Brad is currently leading the entire design and development effort for the Earthducation project.

An approach that is integral in the creation of inviting and aesthetically pleasing designs that are functionally effective allowing for minimal effort by the user while maximizing their learning experience through efficient knowledge transfer.
What is education to you?
Education is the process of deconstructing what you know, analyzing the parts you have currently, then reassembling them by adding in new pieces along the way. The true challenge is learning what to do with the pieces you have left over.
Jeni HenricksonPhD Student, Learning Technologies
Jeni is a PhD student in the Learning Technologies program at the University of Minnesota, a graduate research assistant for the Learning Technologies Media Lab, and an interactive and instructional designer. She is interested in researching and designing adventure learning environments, in exploring the uses of mobile and other technologies in the K-12 classroom, and in getting kids outdoors, actively interacting with the natural environment.
In 2011, Jeni published her first iPhone app, on Adventure Learning. She created the app in an LT App Design course taught by Charlie and Aaron. The app is based on Aaron's adventure learning framework and showcases many of the successful adventure learning projects over the years.
What is education to you?
For me, education is life. I have learned and continue to learn equally from my informal interactions and the formal classroom. My teachers have been formal educators, friends, colleagues, family members, complete strangers, and the natural world. I believe it's critical that from an early age we work to engage kids in the beauty of learning and the power of quiet observation, and to imbue them with the confidence to ask questions, believe in their ideas, and take action.
Patrick JohnsonTechnology Director, LT Media Lab
Patrick is the Technology Director for the Learning Technologies Media Lab at the University of Minnesota. He attended the University of Minnesota and received his bachelors degree in Economics and Spanish studies, and is pursuing a master's of education in Learning Technologies at the University of Minnesota.
A keen interest in computers drove Patrick into the IT field and has placed him in a position to make a difference to educators. By making technology support easy, and having an open mind to the needs of educators, he can find unique solutions for their technology needs. Patrick hopes that with this approach educators can embrace and use technology in their curriculum, furthering their ability to maximize their impact on students.
What is education to you?
For me, education is learning to learn. I feel as we go through our early, more traditional, school based education we train ourselves to be successful later in life by training ourselves to learn later in life. Education is not something that happens only early in life, it is a process that continues for us each day.

Samsung Galaxy K (Galaxy S5 Zoom) stars in new leaked pictures
At the beginning of this month we saw a photo that was purportedly depicting the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S5 Zoom, and then a while later we found out that it may actually get unveiled as the Galaxy K. That's set to happen on April 29, which is next Tuesday.
And now two more pictures of the Galaxy K have leaked out into the world, and they let us get an idea of the device's thickness, unlike the image from that past leak.
Undoubtedly, the Galaxy K will be thicker than all of the current flagship smartphones, but that's kind of inevitable when you slap a lens that could have easily been used on a compact digital camera atop a smartphone body. That said, the Galaxy K does look more pocketable than its predecessor, the Galaxy S4 Zoom.
The Galaxy K will keep the 10x optical zoom of that device, but bumps the camera resolution to 20 MP (up from 16 MP on last year's model), at least if past spec leaks are to be believed. The phone will also come with a 4.8-inch 720p Super AMOLED HD touchscreen, a 2 MP front camera, a hexa-core Samsung Exynos processor, 2 GB of RAM, 8 or 16 GB of internal storage, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC, and it will run Android 4.4 KitKat from day one.
