As of May 2012, T.O.S. will also offer a new service: a full ASD Training Program at any location worldwide.
For years T.O.S. has been a worldwide specialist in the transportation of vessels on their own keel. With the growth of the number of performed ship deliveries (in particular of ASD vessels) T.O.S. became an expert in supplying ASD captains, delivering ASD tug boats and providing ASD training on the spot for the new crew. "We often noticed that customers highly valued our on the spot training after a ship delivery. With the launch of the 'ASD Training Program' we will be able to offer a flexible, tailor made and professional training program with the latest STCW & IMO requirements (DNV certified)", says Ronald van der Kolk, Manager Division Nautical & Technical .
The ASD Training Program
The training is very flexible and developed for (experienced) tug masters. In consultation with the client the starting level of the tug masters shall be determined. In a relatively short period of time, depending on the starting level, all tug masters will be trained to operate as a full ASD tug master. The program starts with a theoretical part. Directly afterwards theory will be put to practice on a tug trainer simulator and on the actual ASD tug. Van der Kolk: "We are able to facilitate a full ASD training program at the client's location while the operational activities can continue. An unique offer with tailor made solutions."

I don't know why everyone is just throwing 5's at this movie like it's the best thing in the world, did I miss some super deep hidden message? All I could get from that was the importance of art and whatnot, which as 'great' as the symbolism was, has been done before many times so I don't see why everyone's acting like you're a philosopher.
And the animation/art was really quite bad. I'm just saying, at times it looked like you just said "fuck it, that'll do I guess" when it was quite clearly a badly animated movement. The whole thing was messy and rough, and the characters moved in an awkward way.
I'm sorry that I sound like an asshole, but like I said I actually do like your cartoons. This, though, is not worthy of the score it has...no offense.

JanCare's Response Time
Posted in the Beckley Forum
1 - 16 of 16 Comments Last updated Oct 9, 2011
#1 Aug 11, 2011
This county's EMS system is going down the drain now the JanCare has become a monopoly. A few days ago my family called an ambulance for my brother, and expected a decent response time. Emergency medicine is all about time; Seconds can make a difference in saving someone's life. JanCare showed up at my brother's house 45 minutes after we called them. That is a far too long response time for any emergency. We called an ambulance thinking that my brother would be better off going with them; that he could get the care he so desperately needed much faster that way, but turns out we would have been better off putting him in one of our vehicles and going to the nearest hospital. After some poking around, I discovered that JanCare employees are not allowed to drive above the speed limit, no matter what the emergency is. While I am all for the safety of all EMS workers, JanCare is not allowing their employees to properly do their jobs. If this was your child, let's say, choking and time was such a monumental issue, wouldn't you be upset? I say that everyone should call JanCare and complain about their policies.

I don't know about their policies but I feel if a cop is allowed to speed why would an ambulance driver?
#3 Aug 11, 2011
I see ambulances with lights flashing, sirens blaring and above the speed limit all the time. Was it an emergency situation? Maybe that's the policy - don't speed & endanger the patient, health care workers & other drivers if it's not an emergency & just a transportation run.
United States
#4 Aug 11, 2011
I'm sorry for the bad experience you had with Jan-Care, but I can assure you it's not just a problem with JC. No one wants to do the job, so EMS services are short staffed. You can't blame JC because you don't know how many trucks were on the road at that time and what kind of calls were being ran, there are other people who are having possibly worse emergencies than you. The speed limit thing is for EMS safety and for the safety for everyone else. Notice how many people yield for a police officer with lights and sirens compared to an ambulance with lights and sirens. If people don't yield to a speeding ambulance the results can be fatal.
#5 Aug 11, 2011
JC has implemented that policy for their drivers. NOT the state. The state says to drive with due regard for others. BEST, GHENT, Whitesville etc, can all drive using their own judgement. JAN CARE says no speeding. This is why their trucks are running lights and sirens with people PASSING THEM! Which is ridiculous! May as well just turn them off. Jan Care even has GPS on their trucks that shows dispatch how fast they are driving. If they go over the speed limit, a signal goes to dispatch, then dispatch squeals to upper management and the driver is suspended. Funny, Jan Care has more accidents than any of the other companies.
United States
#6 Aug 11, 2011
I never said it was the state's policy. It's JC's alone and I as a driver completely respect and understand that. You never know what you're failing to see when your adrenaline kicks in and you're going faster than you should be. Speeding doesn't save much time. People don't yield to ambulances, whether it's going fast or slow. Want to know why JC has more accidents? Because JC is a big company compared to other ambulance companies around and when people see a JC truck they see big money signs. I can't tell you how many people have cut me off or done something stupid or dangerous that no one in their right mind would do unless they were seeing money signs.
#7 Aug 11, 2011
Excellent answer, newbee. LOL
#8 Aug 11, 2011
Here is another thread complaing about JanCare. There are many factors left out of this complaint. Where you live. Where the responders were at the time the call came in. Let's not forget how long it took before the decision was made before calling.
As for speeding, I worked for a large company and drove a company truck. The crap people pull just to try and get you into an accident is crazy. It is bad enough driving in Beckley in a personal automobile on a good day. Try driving with a big dollar sign hung over you car?
I do wish the public would start showing a little more consideration and understanding of what our emergency service providers are trying to do. Try to understand it from their point of view as well.
When I was 9 years old my mother and I took a basic first aid class and learned CPR. I think it was a free class JanCare provided many years ago, but either way, what I learned in that class has stuck with me well into my adult life. As for the child choking comment, learn the heimlich maneuver, CPR, and other basic first aid as well. Educate yourself on what to do and what not to do. YOU are the first line of defense in an emergency situation. Who knows you just might save a life one day.
Work with our emergency service providers not against them. Finally, I do hope your brother is doing well now. Prayers to your family.
#9 Aug 11, 2011
I have been behind them driving slow as hell with lights on and sirens blasting dont make no damn sense
#10 Aug 12, 2011
In that case I say learn the Heimlich maneuver. You also have to look at the volume of calls ran by Jan-Care. Even if you have a station next door to your house, the ambulance is probably tied up with some pillbilly who wants a ride to the hospital to try to score some oxy's.
#11 Aug 12, 2011
Funny, because they are MUCH larger than most of the other companies. When you have 100 ambulances, see how many of them are involved in accidents as compared with a fleet of 10.
#12 Oct 8, 2011
yet if we do speed and god forbid we get into an accident, youd be one of the first to critisize us for that!
#13 Oct 8, 2011
apparently, we have another misinformed idiot on here.
#14 Oct 9, 2011
I understand your comment, but in reality should not take 45 minutes to get to emergency situation. If you were stationed in Beckley 45 minutes is ample time to reach most anywhere in Raleigh county, with exception of Coal River..If they have ambulance stationed everywhere, why does it take so long? I'm employed by physician in town. We had patient with chest pains.Took them hour and 15 minutes to arrive!!!!! Thats an extreme liability to the company. I documented time I called, time arrived, and time on road. Thank goodness patient survived, but my point being WERE IN TOWN!!!! I believe the shortage of workers is because of the wages. If Im a certified professional, I think minimum wage is an insult for the job being performed. Adreneline rush is a daily occurance when you see fire and accident victims, children in distress, etc. I also know what the billed amounts are, there is NO EXCUSE paying minimum wage. While I know small business in WV is difficult, it seems the reason for the service is being disregarded..The PATIENT
#15 Oct 9, 2011
File a complaint with the Public Service Com. there are regulations on response times. J.C may have the policies due to Wv law and regulations Private EMS transports are not considered emergency vehicles, unless they have on the side they state 911 designated. You don't really have to pull over for the non designated J.C. vehicles. On the other hand what if it was a loved one being transported or the fact you may not see the designation and get a "hefty" fine. It is the county that request the number of 911 transports so contact your county government also.
#16 Oct 9, 2011
You Are So Full Of Shit, I Feel Dumber For Reading This In The First Place, You Apparently Do Not Know What You Are Talking About. Every Emergency Vehicle, Also Know As A Ambulance Or First Responder Vehicle Is Inspected By The State OEMS Office, You Won't Find A Vehicle In The State Marked "911 Designated". What A Dumb Ass. Get Your Facts Straight.

Former Intel exec to join Apple as General Counsel, SVP
Bruce Sewell, a former general counsel and senior vice president of Intel, will join Apple as the company's General Counsel and senior vice president of Legal and Government Affairs, replacing Daniel Cooperman, who will be retiring at the end of September. Sewell will report directly to Apple CEO Steve Jobs, and will likely lead Apple's legal, corporate affairs and corporate social responsibility programs, responsibilities he also held at Intel.
"We are thrilled to have Bruce join our executive team, and wish Dan a very happy retirement," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "With Bruce's extensive experience in litigation, securities and intellectual property, we expect this to be a seamless transition."

What an honor to be a part of this community. I love history so much and have the time now to really trace mine. It is so nice to be able to enter someones name and sure enough, someone has not only taken pictures of the graves but sometimes leave the nicest message and flower, and prob never even knew the person. How kind is that? Well to a Family member like me, it means so much to come across this. Knowing I will prob never in my lifetime ever get to go there and see it. So if I can give back even something small it could mean the world to the Family member who has been searching. Hats off to every volunteer in this community.

Parsley and Hunter: Planned Parenthood = Hitler
As the nation celebrated Martin Luther King, Jr. last week, Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council wrote of what he called the "irony" of the fact that anti-abortion activists choose the same day to rally in Washington: Hoping to piggyback on the civil rights movement, historically never allied with the Religious Right, Perkins implied that reproductive health-care providers are really motivated by a desire to "exterminate" black people.
Tandem with efforts by the Religious Right to recruit African American churches, the idea that abortion providers are trying to wipe out blacks is being heavily promoted on the far right, thanks to the efforts of the Life Education and Resource Network (LEARN) and BlackGenocide.org. (The group was featured on this "700 Club" report in 2006.)
Johnny Hunter of LEARN was a guest on televangelist Rod Parsley's show this week:
"Roe v. Wade doesn't have to be overturned. The hearts and minds of this nation must be overturned," said Hunter.

Why do my brake lights come on when I turn the ignition on?
I have a 95 Chevrolet 1500 truck 4wd with a 5.7l. When I turn my ignition on the brake lights seem to come on. When I hit the brakes the lights go off then back on when I let off the pedal. Why?
3 Answers
The brake light switch is where Id look first.
I can check there first. I looked for 2 years for a transmission for the truck cause it was given to me by my brother then had to find a motor for it. So got the motor in and trying to get it back on the road and running. Thanks.
If the brake light does not extinguishes, the problem is electrical. Check and see if the brake light cables are chaffing

Arista Networks, Inc. today announced the crossing of another major milestone, shipping its two millionth, high speed, 10/40/100Gb Ethernet port for data center and cloud applications. This is being fueled by the increased acceptance of cloud computing and services, causing significant growth since the internet boom of the 1990s.
"We are pleased with the migration to modern data center and cloud platforms from legacy networks. This is providing significant opportunity for Arista's disruptive innovations," stated Jayshree Ullal, president and CEO at Arista Networks. "Arista EOS, coupled with advanced platforms, demonstrates our unwavering commitment to customers towards open standards and software defined networks (SDN)."
Smart System Upgrade: Key Network Application for Workflow Optimization
Arista introduces Smart System Upgrade (SSU), yet another network application delivered through Arista EOS that enables IT professionals and DevOps teams to automate and program the network's operating behavior during change control, to align with the other mission critical systems in the cloud and data center. SSU works at multiple layers from orchestration platforms, ticketing systems, and virtualization platforms all the way down to the network layer. Key examples of SSU components and features that enable a streamlined IT workflow are:
Orchestration Layer: SSU provides programmable interconnects with leading orchestration and DevOps automation systems such as Puppet, Chef, and Ansible enabling systems to be dynamically re-balanced and re-positioned prior to any planned network outages.
Virtualization and Cloud Management Layers: SSU integrates with VMware, Microsoft System Center, and OpenStack so that virtual workloads can be migrated and positioned prior to planned network outages. Integration with the Automated Event Management system in Arista EOS also enables these workload re-balancing events to be triggered based on load, link availability, or other high priority conditions.
Network Layer: Arista EOS provides programmatic control over network topology structure enabling coordinated upgrades with adjacent switching and routing devices via its latest features. Accelerated System Upgrades: In the upcoming Arista EOS 14.4.1 release, SSU is being enhanced with a new feature that enables the network device to be restarted 'in place' with minimal disruption to any adjacency. This is designed to enable cloud environments to achieve the most stringent service-level agreements and enable enterprise-class cloud deployments.
Core Operating System Layer: Arista EOS's foundation and multi-process state sharing system provide the ability for individual processes to be restarted, upgraded, and programmatically controlled to maintain maximum system uptime via its SFR/SFC (Software Fault Containment/Recovery Mechanisms). This self-healing architecture brings modern OS design principles to the networking industry improving system reliability and operational availability.
"Arista's SSU lets us customize our network exactly for our stack," said Artur Bergman, CEO of Fastly, the innovative CDN. "The shift we're seeing in moving from just configuring a network to being able to program one gives us a huge boost in efficiency, much better reliability and greater flexibility to respond to any changes we or our customers might need."
The combination of the Arista EOS core architecture, advanced network applications like Smart System Upgrade, and the commitment to supporting open standards and non-proprietary protocols, has enabled Arista to quickly establish itself as a leader in 10, 40, and 100Gb Ethernet – the high speed, portion of the 10B cloud networking market. In a recent test performed by the Lippis Report, the award winning Arista 7500E broke multiple test records and the report concluded that the switch retained its status as the most widely deployed spine switch in the 288 40GbE modular category.
About Arista Networks
The company was founded to deliver software-defined cloud networking solutions for large data center and computing environments. Arista's award-winning 10/40/100 GbE switches redefine scalability, robustness, and price–performance, with over 2000 customers and more than two million cloud networking ports being deployed worldwide. At the core of Arista's platform is EOS, the world's most advanced network operating system. Arista Networks products are available worldwide through distribution partners, systems integrators and resellers.
ARISTA, EOS and Spline are among the registered and unregistered trademarks of Arista Networks, Inc. in jurisdictions around the world. Other company names or product names may be trademarks of their respective owners.

Rick Carlisle Rumors
Tim MacMahon: A source said the Spurs and Mavericks are among the other teams that would interest Conley, who intends to explore his options in free agency. The Spurs would have to answer questions about how Conley would fit with Tony Parker, according to the source, who said that Conley has great respect for Dallas coach Rick Carlisle.
Tim MacMahon: Source: Mike Conley's respect for Rick Carlisle gives Mavs a shot at top PG in free agency.
Rick Carlisle on the speculation about Mark Cuban being nominated for vice president: "When all that stuff was being talked about, I was curious to see who was going to run with it. I can certainly see the appeal of why someone would want Mark. He's extremely visible, extremely intelligent, business-savvy. He understands the media. I think he has a great grasp on a lot of things in the world including politics. I was a little uncertain if anybody had enough money to pay him to do it. Those jobs don't pay a lot."

Montville - The Town Council voted 3-2 Monday night to continue its fight against the residential sex-offender treatment facility proposed for the grounds of Corrigan-Radgowski Correctional Center.
The council voted 3-2 not to end its lawsuit, with councilors Candy Buebendorf and Billy Caron voting to halt it. Russ Beetham, Ellen Hillman and Dana McFee voted to continue the suit. Chairwoman Donna Jacobson was sick and not at the meeting while Councilor Gary Murphy abstained, citing his employment with the Department of Correction.
Several of the councilors argued Monday that the town's lawsuit has bolstered its opposition to the facility in recent weeks.
The decision came just several hours after Mayor Joseph Jaskiewicz, Caron, Jacobson and some residents traveled to Hartford to attend a General Assembly hearing on a proposed bill that would create a list of criteria the state must consider when building a sex-offender treatment facility. The proposed bill would force the state to consider proximity to parks, schools and child-care facilities when determining a site. It would also require the state to compile a list of five proposed sites before settling on a final location.
During a meeting last week, Department of Correction Commissioner Leo Arnone and Tim Bannon, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy's chief of staff, told town officials about new security measures the state is willing to implement at the proposed facility.
McFee argued that the meeting was a sign of progress.
"If (the state) changed who they're going to put in there because of the fight, that money was well spent," McFee said about the approximately $87,000 the town has spent in legal fees.
Beetham changed his stance on the lawsuit in recent weeks. He voted in favor of continuing the appeal Monday, saying the town should wait to sign a memorandum of understanding with the state before ending its litigation.
Hillman also argued to keep the town's appeal going, although she said the town has been waiting on a memorandum of understanding from the state for several months.
But Buebendorf, who was the driving force behind Monday's special meeting, continued to argue against the lawsuit.
"It's time to withdraw our appeal and work on a (memorandum of understanding with the state) that will provide the security Montville citizens deserve," she told the council.
Jim Andriote, the founder of Independence for Montville, presented minutes from a March 2009 meeting of the Montville Prison Safety Committee. He said that was the first time the sex-offender facility was proposed and said Jaskiewicz should have told the council about it earlier.
Jaskiewicz said later that he told state legislators representing the town of the proposal and had little other recourse at the time because the funding for the facility was not yet in place. Once that changed, he said, he alerted the councilors and legislators again.
Jaskiewicz said the town has a May 4 pretrial conference on its appeal. The town should not incur substantial legal fees in the meantime, councilors said.

In this paper, we demonstrate that healthy adults respond differentially to the administration of force feedback and the presentation of scientific content in a virtual environment, where they interact with a low-cost haptic device. Subjects are tasked with controlling the movement of a cursor on a predefined trajectory that is superimposed on a map of New York City's Bronx Zoo. The system is characterized in terms of a suite of objective indices quantifying the subjects' dexterity in planning and generating the multijoint visuomotor tasks. We find that force feedback regulates the smoothness, accuracy, and duration of the subject's movement, whereby converging or diverging force fields influence the range of variations of the hand speed. Finally, our findings provide preliminary evidence that using educational content increases subjects' satisfaction. Improving the level of interest through the inclusion of learning elements can increase the time spent performing rehabilitation tasks and promote learning in a new context.
Robotic machines were identified as an effective tool in rehabilitation during the 1990s [
These mechanical systems can be equipped with an array of sensors to record data, such as position, velocity, and joint torques, and host actuators for moving the patient's limb in accordance to selected control strategies. With minimal therapist time commitment, robots can: (i) automatically facilitate a variety of movements, in terms of force and displacement fields, depending on the patient's conditions and (ii) produce objective indices to estimate motor changes of patients during therapy [
Robots can be broadly classified as: (i) passive, where the system constrains the patient's arm to a determined range of motion (without actuation); (ii) active, where the system moves the patient's arm along a predefined path (through electromechanical actuation, pneumatics, etc.); and (iii) interactive, where the system reacts to the patient's inputs to provide an optimal assistive strategy [
Using end-effector devices, the patient holds a manipulandum, which experiences the robot-imposed forces. All the forces and measurements are executed at a single interface, which has the advantage of easy set-up for patients of different body sizes. Examples of current upper limb systems of the end-effector type are: MIT/IMT-Manus [
Despite the proved effectiveness of RMTs, their use is not a routine part of treatment in most therapeutic settings. The reason is that robots used for such analyses are often complicated to operate and costly to purchase and, therefore, not suitable for ordinary clinic or home use. Thus, considerable effort has been devoted to the development of less expensive systems that can be easily used for outpatient rehabilitation, without the supervision by a therapist. In addition, the need of providing rehabilitation treatments beyond the hospital stay has generated substantial interest in models exploring robotics-based technology to extend rehabilitation therapy and assessment to home environments [
Consequently, low-cost haptic devices, originally developed for gaming, hold promise in aiding RMT, whereby they can stimulate the kinaestetic senses of the user by delivering forces through the end-effector and create the illusion of contact with a rigid surface. A critical comparison of commercially available devices indicate that the Novint Falcon allows for the largest force amplitude [
Beyond the medical domain, the Falcon has been shown to enrich learning experience by increasing participants' motivation when used in educational games for normally developed children [
In this study, we demonstrate the feasibility of using the Falcon haptic joystick in a 2D virtual reality environment to administer different therapeutic treatments to healthy young adults. Specifically, we consider four different experimental conditions that are designed to dissect the roles of force feedback from the end-effector and science learning during task execution on the subjects' response. Subjects' response is studied through salient performance indices determined from the time trace of the end-effector and survey instruments administered after task completion. From a theoretical point of view, this work seeks to test the following hypotheses: (i) force feedback regulates the smoothness, accuracy, and duration of the subject's movement and (ii) inclusion of science learning in the exercise increases participants' interest in the tasks. From a methodological point of view, this study contributes to the development of a low-cost platform based on a haptic joystick to: (i) offer real-time feedback to participants as a function of end-effector motion in a 2D virtual environment; (ii) enable the administration of scientific content pertinent to the 2D virtual environment; (iii) establish a toolbox of sensory-motor performance indices to assess force feedback; and (iv) establish content-specific survey instruments to evaluate subjects' engagement and learning.
The system was composed of: (i) a hardware component, based on an off-the-shelf low-cost platform (Novint Falcon, Washington, PA) and (ii) a software component, developed in-house using MATLAB (Mathworks, Natick, MA) and "The Haptik Library" [
The Novint Falcon (
The ad-hoc 2D scenario was the representation of New York City's Bronx Zoo (www.bronxzoo.com), where a predefined path (
(The image presented to the subjects was superimposed on a map of the zoo and included various animal species.).
The system provided four different end-point behaviors: no-force feedback exerted by the system with (0F_S) or without (0F) the delivery of scientific content about the zoo; converging force (CF); and diverging force (DF). The force feedback was generated through a virtual force field, in which the predefined path corresponded to the equilibrium. The system determined the current position and velocity of the end-effector. Thus, when the cursor was on the path, no force was exerted by the manipulator and, when the cursor was not on the path, a force feedback was exerted. Such force was directed towards or away from the path depending on whether CF or DF conditions were implemented, respectively. The components of the force in the horizontal and vertical directions on the screen were obtained by performing the gradient of a potential field, which was obtained through Gaussian filtering of a separately drawn image. On average, the force feedback was on the order of 10 mN per pixel. For both conditions, a viscous damping force linearly proportional to the cursor speed, computed using a first order finite difference scheme, was utilized to smoothen the trajectories. While the Novint Falcon allows for motion and force feedback in 3D, the normal component of the force with respect to the 2D environment used to navigate the cursor is zero. Therefore, not only motion in the normal direction did not result in cursor motion, but also it did not produce force feedback in any condition and was not considered in any performance metric.
Here, we succinctly describe each of these tasks that formed the four experimental conditions of our study:
The study was carried out on a sample of 48 healthy subjects (27 males and 21 female; age 26.4 ± 3.1). The inclusion criteria were: 20 to 35 years of age; no current or previous motor and neurological disorders; no medical condition that could affect their upper limb movement performance or vision of the video screen; and, finally, no current or previous experience with the Falcon haptic interface. All participants were uninformed about the purpose of the study.
Personal information questions addressed the participants' demographics and their dominant hand. Written consent was obtained from all the subjects and the study was approved by the Institution Review Board at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University.
Participants were made to sit comfortably on a chair in front of a table, whereupon both the Falcon and the video screen were placed. Subjects were instructed to sit with the center of the video screen in the sagittal plane, and no constraint was imposed on their posture and on the pose of their arms. The only instructions provided by the experimenter to the subjects were to use their dominant hand, follow the track with minimal deviations from it, and read zoo-related content when present. No time restriction was provided on the duration of task completion. Thus, we tested the ability of healthy adults to adapt upper limb movements to spatial constraints based on incoming visual feedback, in 0F and 0F_S, and visual and force feedback, in CF and DF. Each participant conducted the four tasks. The four sets of experiments were fully randomized in their presentation to the participants, so that each possible sequence of tasks (numbering 24 possible sequences in total) was administered to two participants.
After completing the four tasks, each subject was administered a 21 item survey, with questions assessing learning from zoo-related content presented to them 0F_S as well as satisfaction from each task and personal information. Science learning was measured as the number of correct responses to ten multiple-choice informative questions about the content covered during the experiment. Questions included: "Why do biomedical researchers study toxins from frogs?" and "Which species has tiny flaps over their ears?" Satisfaction was measured on a five point Likert scale ranging between "very dissatisfied" and "very satisfied" [
Studies on sensory-motor performance have identified a multitude of indices to quantify smoothness and coordination for investigating the effect of age, disease, or therapeutic intervention. Among feasible measures proposed in the literature on neuro-rehabilitation of the upper limb [
The onset and the termination of a movement were detected by processing the hand speed off-line and a threshold value of 0.05 m/s (1.97 in/s) was used to partition the individual trajectory of a participant in submovements [
To ascertain differences in the sensory-motor performance for each index among the participants, a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used. Specifically, for each of the five indices (SM, NSM, D, NPL, and T), we compared the mean response under the four experimental conditions (0F, CF, DF, and 0F_S). Based on the significant main effect of condition, Fisher's protected least significant difference (PLSD) post-hoc tests were used.
To assess the impact of the presentation of scientific content on participants' satisfaction, a paired-samples t-test was performed comparing the learning-based task and the control task, that is, 0F_S and 0F.
To test the hypothesis that learning is positively associated with satisfaction from the task, the following procedure was carried out: for each participant, the difference between satisfaction in 0F_S and 0F was calculated. For subjects who indicated a difference in such satisfaction, a Pearson correlation analysis was carried out between the satisfaction difference level and the number of correct answers in the content test.
Statistical analyses were performed with built-in functions of Statview 5.0 (Abacus, Berkeley, CA) and SPSS 20 (IBM, Armonk, NY). The significance level was set at p < 0.05 for all statistical tests.
Our results support the expectation that the smoothness of participants' movements is influenced by the experimental condition (for SM F3,48=30.256, p<0.0001 and for NSM F3,48=13.072, p<0.0001). Specifically, the speed metric SM is maximized for the control condition 0F in which participants were not subject to either force feedback or scientific learning (p<0.0001 in post-hoc tests comparing 0F to any other condition). Moreover, the presence of a converging feedback in CF increases the speed metric as compared to the conditions in which diverging feedback or scientific learning are present, that is, DF or 0F_S (p<0.0005 in post-hoc tests). In addition, an analysis of the number of submovements NSM indicates that the force feedback contributed to reducing the partitioning of the subject's tracks in the trials (p<0.0001 in post-hoc tests comparing CF or DF to either 0F or 0F_S). No significant differences in NSM are observed when comparing 0F with 0F_S and CF with DF.
Bars with different letters are statistically different from post-hoc comparisons.
Our results also confirm the expectation that the accuracy of participants' movements is influenced by the experimental condition (for D F3,48=9.519, p<0.0001 and NPL F3,48=54.909, p<0.0001). Specifically, we find that the deviation D is minimized for CF, where a converging force feedback is offered to the subjects (p<0.0005 in post-hoc tests comparing CF to any other condition). The analysis of the normalized path length NPL indicates that the diverging force feedback in condition DF maximizes the length of the track paths taken by the subjects (p<0.0001 in post-hoc tests comparing DF to any other condition). In addition, we find a significant difference when comparing NPL for 0F and CF, suggesting that the presence of a converging force feedback increases the actual path length taken by subjects (p=0.0395 in post-hoc tests).
Bars with different letters are statistically different from post-hoc comparisons.
Our results indicate that the task duration T is influenced by the experimental condition (F3,48=2.713, p=0.0462). Post-hoc comparisons reveal that the presence of a converging feedback in CF reduces the task duration as compared to both DF and 0F_S, in which the participants are offered a diverging force feedback or are exposed to the scientific content (p=0.0400 in post-hoc test comparing CF and DF and p=0.146 comparing CF and 0F_S).
A comparison between the learning-based condition 0F_S and the control condition 0F demonstrate that the satisfaction from performing the task was higher in the learning-based task (4.08 vs. 3.79). A paired-samples t-test show that the difference is significant (p=0.0301).
Out of 48 subjects, 28 participants showed a nonzero difference; in other words, for 28 users there was a difference between the satisfaction levels in the two tasks. For these 28 users, a positive, yet not significant, correlation of 0.27 (p = 0.17) was found between satisfaction difference and learning.
Solid line is a linear regression.
In the present study, we show that healthy adult subjects respond differentially to the administration of force feedback and scientific content in a virtual environment, where they interact with a low-cost haptic device to control the movement of a cursor on a predefined trajectory. The virtual environment is designed based on a map of a local zoo, which offers several opportunities for delivering scientific content to the subjects during the task execution. The proposed low-cost system enables the delivery of RMT and performance assessment through a suite of objective indices, based on variables validated in previous studies [
The analysis of movement smoothness (using SM and NSM) indicates that when converging or diverging force fields are applied, the range of variations of the hand speed increases with respect to the control condition 0F, as evidenced by a reduction of SM and NSM (without an increase in the task duration). We propose that this effect reflects the subjects' effort to counter the real-time force feedback by exerting a continuous and fine regulation of the end-effector. These results are consistent with findings from [
Motor program reorganization induced by converging and diverging force fields is likely related to a trial and error process, in which subjects selectively activate the muscular-skeletal system in response to the external perturbations. Thus, the delivery of an external force causes fine and continuous on-line adjustments of the hand positions on the basis of the discrepancy between the target and the cursor locations. These voluntary compensatory activities are evident in our results concerning the normalized path length and the trial duration, which demonstrate variations in the subjects' response due to force feedback. In future studies, these performance evaluation metrics will be used to update the robot control in real-time, during the execution of a motor exercise for rehabilitation treatments of patients with paretic upper limbs.
Another important finding of our study concerns the utility of combining learning in the tele-rehabilitation process. While preliminary, our results suggest that using scientific content increases subjects' satisfaction. This is a relevant aspect in neuro-rehabilitation research, since a major problem is patients' boredom resulting from performing repetitive tasks [
In conclusion, our findings offer evidence for the utility of low-cost haptic devices in evaluating and training the upper limb by tracking predefined trajectories in a 2D virtual environment. Specifically, our results support the hypotheses that force feedback regulates salient indices of sensory-motor performance and that the inclusion of science learning fosters interest in participation. Beyond these theoretical contributions, this work addresses a wide spectrum of methodological aspects that can be leveraged in the design of neuro-rehabilitation hypothesis-driven studies based on the Novint Falcon, as well as alternative platforms for remote tele-rehabilitation by home users. Methodological elements that are advanced by this work include: (i) real-time feedback as a function of end-effector motion; (ii) ad-hoc administration of scientific content; (iii) establishment of a toolbox of sensory-motor performance indices; and (iv) design of content-specific survey instruments to evaluate engagement and learning. Future studies will be focused on implications of these results in rehabilitation contexts, whereby a similar setting will be used to treat upper limb paresis and stimulate patients' participation through the presentation of relevant scientific content. As part of this work, we will also explore the feasibility of optimizing the administration of scientific information, including their content and distribution in the 2D virtual environment, to enhance participation.

'Creepy clown' raises concerns in Fishers
FISHERS, Ind. - Fishers residents were on high alert after multiple people spotted a "creepy clown" in the area.
Officials with the Fishers Police Department said they want to talk to the person who was seen near 126th Street and Olio Road.
Residents took to social media Wednesday and Thursday to share the picture and concerns about the man dressed up as a clown and holding balloons.

Police said they sent an officer to patrol the area and look for the clown, but the man was already gone.
"The creepy clown going around Fishers was in my aunt's neighborhood hanging out where the kids were… If you see it, please call the cops," one resident wrote on Twitter.
Another Twitter user wrote, "Apparently there's a guy who dresses as a creepy clown and roams the streets of Fishers at night. BRB. Moving as far away as possible."
The reports came just days after other mysterious clowns were scaring residents around the nation.

Strange clowns started roaming the streets of Wasco, California at night, and since that story broke, copycats have been hitting other cities in full force.
Residents of the Fishers neighborhood said they just want the guy caught.
"When you come out to get your mail at night after you get home from work, you really don't want to see this guy out there, oh absolutely not, no I'd probably leave the mail in the mailbox," one resident said.
Police said anyone who sees the clown -- or someone who looks suspicious -- shouldn't hesitate to call 911.

Report: Apple Planning September Keynote
Apple is said to be planning a September keynote for the week of September 7.
Over the last few days, rumors about the possibility of an Apple tablet have intensified, thanks in large part to videos that purport to show the device in action.
Apple Tablet Hands On
While it all seems like much ado about nothing, the video was followed by separate rumors about an Apple keynote event in the second week of September. No surprises there, considering the company had an iPod event last September and another one to announce the iPod Touch the year before.
MediaMemo cites music industry execs who claim Apple had informed them about the event so we're going to go out on a limb and say its iPod-related as opposed to Apple tablet-related. Then again, if the tablet is, as everyone seems to think it is, a media player (similar to a big iPod Touch) then it could be just the place to announce the tablet.
