Expanding prosperity for a growing world population will drive an increase in energy demand of approximately 35% by 2030 compared to 2005, even with significant efficiency gains, and natural gas will emerge as the second largest energy source behind oil, ExxonMobil said on 27th January as it released its new edition of Outlook for Energy: A View to 2030.
The growing use of natural gas and other less carbon intensive energy supplies, combined with greater energy efficiency in nations around the world, will help mitigate environmental impacts of increased energy demand. According to the Outlook, global energy related carbon dioxide emissions growth will be lower than the projected average rate of growth in energy demand.
'Our energy outlook clearly points to a growing demand for energy globally which reflects improving living standards for millions of people around the world. ExxonMobil will continue to invest in technology and innovation to develop new economic energy supplies to help meet this demand while looking for ways to reduce environmental impacts,' said Rex W. Tillerson, chairman and chief executive officer.
'The forecasts also show a shift toward natural gas as businesses and governments look for reliable, affordable and cleaner ways to meet energy needs,' Tillerson said. 'Newly unlocked supplies of shale gas and other unconventional energy sources will be vital in meeting this demand.'

Once again the department would like to extend an invitation to Tullahoma citizens to participate in the next session. The Tullahoma Police Department is currently accepting applications for the 2015 Citizen's Police Academy (TCPA). The TCPA is being offered in order to maintain a strong partnership between the residents of Tullahoma and the Police Department in order to enhance the quality of life in our community. The TCPA will provide for an introduction to the operation of the Police Department and the resources and requirements necessary to provide a professional and proficient community service. The TCPA will focus on an interactive curriculum consisting of classroom instruction, discussion periods, mock scenarios, situational activities, and hands-on activities.
Applications for the TCPA are being taken for the session that will begin March 24, 2015 and conclude May 26, 2015. The application and eligibility requirements and other information can be found at www.tullahomatn.gov, or pick up an application packet at the Police Department, 201 W. Grundy St.
Once the applications have been received, a total of eighteen (18) participants will be selected to attend. The participants will be notified by mail of their acceptance.
Upon notification, the participants will be required to submit a thirty dollar ($30) registration fee to cover materials. The TCPA will be held on Tuesday evenings for the ten week period from 5:30 pm to approximately 8:30 pm. The program will consist of a total of forty-four (44) hours of instruction and a participant must attend thirty-six (36) hours in order to graduate.
Completion of the TCPA does not certify participants as law enforcement officers. The purpose and intent of the TCPA is to provide residents with an opportunity to gain insight and knowledge as too the operations of the local law enforcement agency. Any questions about the TCPA can be directed to Chief Paul Blackwell at (931) 455-0530 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

It's been 18 years since City Hall's tower was the tallest spot in Philadelphia, but the view is still impressive enough to attract 30,000 people annually.
The 360-degree vista from the 484-foot-high observation deck below the iconic Alexander Milne Calder sculpture of William Penn is arguably still the best way the average citizen can see the region. And it's free, open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. Monday through Friday.
When construction began in 1871, City Hall was designed to be the tallest structure in the world. By the time it was finished in 1901 - $21.1 million, 88 million bricks, and untold tons of marble, granite and limestone later - the 548 feet to the top of Penn's hat had been surpassed by the 1,000-foot Eiffel Tower and the 555-foot Washington Monument.

Concerns regarding the borough's authorities (water and sewer) highlighted the June 4 Newport Borough Council meeting.
Water quthority treasurer Gerry Robinson addressed questions raised by councilwoman Tami Halstead concerning the authority's debt.
Robinson said the water authority was roughly $6 million in debt, which is comprised of a $473,681 balance in a pair of PennVEST loans, $4.2 million in a loan from First National Bank of Mifflintown, and an additional $1.3 million owed on a line of credit issued by FNB of Mifflintown.
The line of credit originally was to be paid off by Nov. 24, 2012, but the bank granted a one-year extension as construction of the new water filtration plant took longer than expected. Robinson noted his authority will be using $758,000 of ARA grant money, which it should be receiving soon, to pay down the line of credit.
He emphasized much of the debt was incurred to repair and replace leaking lines, which has cut the amount of water needed daily to operate the system in half and resulted in significant corresponding reductions in operating costs. He also noted the system's integrity proved itself during the recent Mulberry Street fire.
Overall, Robinson stated the authority is paying roughly $260,000 annually toward interest and principal on its debt (down from $300,000 in recent years). He said that much of the debt will be paid back by future, not current users of the system.
Robinson also denied the authority is using sewer revenue, which it passes on to the borough, to increase its apparent credit-worthiness.
Councilwoman and water authority chairperson Barb Hart said the authority may be receiving up to $1 million in hookup fees from a prospective development in Howe Twp., which could be used to retire debt.
At the end of the meeting, Hart said this would be the last time the water authority will answer questions at a borough council meeting. She felt those concerned about the authority should attend its meetings, which take place the first Monday of the month.
In other news, secretary Pat Bowers reported outstanding bills to be paid from the sewer revenue account exceed its balance by $34,000. A quarterly transfer payment from the water authority, which is due in this month, should rectify the situation.
Council approved an ordinance to separate water and sewer bills pending a 60-day review period on a 6-1 vote with Hart dissenting. The separation is required to qualify for a USDA loan needed to build a new sewer plant.
Under the proposal, sewer bills will be switched from quarterly billing based on usage to monthly flat-rate billing for residential customers. The flat rate is per housing unit; and not based on the number of individuals in the residence. Commercial customers also will be moving to monthly billing but not at a flat rate. Billing to the Oliver Twp. Authority for system maintenance will be switched from twice a year to quarterly.
The proposed ordinance also modifies some of the terms of what is permitted to be sent through the system for treatment.
The revised language no longer allows for 'industrial waste' to be accepted (just residential and commercial). Jill Hoover of the Oliver Twp. Authority warned the change may be detrimental to the economic growth of the area.
She pointed out hair salons would be considered industrial due to the chemicals used. She also felt the restriction could stop light manufacturing from locating here. Hoover said Oliver Twp. would not sign onto an agreement with such a restriction.
Council approved spending $3,000 for a new digester blower at the sewer plant in order to increase dissolved oxygen which in turn reduces nitrogen content. The move hopefully will reduce the amount of nitrogen credits the borough may have to buy as nitrogen release restrictions are tightened.
Council tabled bids for repair work on manholes and inlets while waiting on more details from the potential contractors.

Anyone here own or have any experience shooting the little 84 Beretta Cheetah .22 cal? Everytime I see one of these I am taken with the idea of buying one, just because they are such a handy size, appear well made and seem to be an excellent design. Never shot one or talked to anyone who has, hence the question.

I have it in my family too - several close relations experiencing it in their late 40s onwards, over multiple generations.
As I understand it, there is a fair amount of data to show that metabolic syndrome is a huge problem with both breast and bowel cancer. This abstract sums is up: Metabolic syndrome, hyperinsulinemia, and col... [Am J Clin Nutr. 2007] - PubMed - NCBI (Lots of stuff in google scholar if you look up hyperinsulinemea and cancer.)
From this point of view (i.e. there are other competing points of view!), diet and lifestyle tweaks should aim to develop and maintain insulin sensitivity. (Poor sleep and stress both contribute to insulin resistance, even if diet is well balanced.)
'Meat = cancer' research is always overloaded with confounding factors - omnivores are more likely to smoke, drink booze, not exercise, etc. Food quality is not factored in (e.g. grainfed vs grassfed beef) and other potentially problematic foods, like gluten and sugar are often not factored in at all (or factored wrongly - Robb Wolf mentioned one study where a pepperoni pizza counted was a serving of meat. Regardless of whether one eats pepperoni pizza, it is undeniable that is is completely different nutritionally to a steak!)
Apologies - I have no comment on your diet or your current issues.

Pick of the Pops
Saturday, 13.00, BBC Radio 2
It's sixty years of the pop charts, an anniversary we'll hear more about later this week, and this is obviously the perfect show to mark it, which they're doing by, er, not playing a chart at all but instead presenting the first of two special shows playing the best-selling single from each year in turn. We're not entirely sure about this because the fun of the show, for us, is hearing the records nobody ever plays anywhere else anymore, and as that standby episode the other month proved, their definition of "best-selling" often seems to be a bit muddled. In any case, here's the first 34 which is a bit messy but records were a bit shorter in those days.

A 26-year-old Jersey City man has been accused of punching and kicking a man in the face in a bar fight in Jersey City on Sunday, breaking the "orbital bone" in the man's face.
David T. Perry, who made his first appearance in court today, demonstrated "extreme indifference to the value of human life" and has been charged with aggravated assault, according to court documents.
Perry was allegedly playing pool in a public place at the time the incident happened, according to a court official.
His bail was set at $50,000 with a 10 percent option of $5,000. As a condition of bail, Perry was forbidden from contacting the alleged victim and from entering the bar in which the incident took place.

One of the greatest stories of all times The Memphis sanitation workers strike remembered
SAN FRANCISCO — Fortieth anniversary events this year have highlighted the historic struggle of African American sanitation workers in Memphis, Tenn. — in 1968 among the country's most oppressed workers — for union rights, decent wages and conditions, respect and dignity, and the fusing of labor, civil rights and peace struggles in that crucible. They have also pointed to the struggles that continue today

I've done it by reencoding from mov... for example to avi(mpeg4 divx).
I used mencoder and the -delay option.
For example:

Never underestimate the electric talent residing in the late rounds of the NFL draft.
The 2012 draft provided a trio of running backs in Vick Ballard, Alfred Morris and Bryce Brown that impacted quite well last season.
This year, a varying pool of prospects offers a broader range of positions but are still capable of making noise in pro football. Michigan's Denard Robinson is the first example we preview ahead.
And if anything, versatility always helps a player bolster his marketability.

I quite agree, and wasn't trying to advocate it's use for this sort of

But thought it might be worth mentioning just the same.

Walls almost always need some surface preparation before you can start painting. Even brand-new plaster needs sealing. You should fill any cracks and holes and make sure all surfaces are clean, smooth and dry. You can paint over emulsion-painted surfaces that are in good condition, but make certain you strip back or sand off any peeling paint.

"Neutering before adoption is probably the most important policy a shelter can have to make sure its adopted animals do not contribute to the problem of homeless pets," says Esther Mechler, founder of SPAY/USA, a national low-cost spay/neuter network.
The Humane Society of Boulder Valley, Colo., experienced a significant reduction in the number of kittens entering the facility after establishing an NBA program. "Even better, we have seen a reduction in the number of animals we have to euthanize," Jan McHugh, the society's executive director, reports in "The Case for Early Neutering," an AHA video. "We feel it is attributed to the early spay/neuter program we implemented," she adds.
- More Spay and Neuter -
Faye Destrehan, LA
Excellent article, and I COMPLETELY agree with this policy. That way the shelter does not end up with more kittens, or worse yet, the mother cat and her kittens returned
Nicole Geneva Switzerland, AL
Hi CatLovers, I am a Canadian living in Europe and competely agree with early neutering/spaying. I wish Europe would catch up with this norm and uncruel act. All the dogs here are very agressive. I have just sent my Bengal kitten 6 months today to be neutered. The vet wanted to wait until 7 months. I wanted this done for both my cat's and mine's peace of mind. I am feeling guilty skipping a month but know this is just EU peer pressure.
Kristen Jenkintown, PA
Early Spay/Neuter is the way to go! We are a new rescue - but we firmly believe in adopting out nuetered animals only! Many people believe that you have to wait a long time before neutering a kitten - but our vet will do adoptable kittens as early as 12 weeks old if the kittens are healthy and a good weight! www.kittycolony.com

Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of Pandora Media (NYSE: P ) have fallen 11% today after news that a certain digital-music pioneer is making big moves in the streaming space.
So what: The bad news started coming in on Sunday when The Wall Street Journal reported on Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL ) licensing deal with Warner Music, which included some very generous ad-revenue sharing stipulations. Warner's 10% take off the top is more than double the 4% Pandora currently pays to the major labels, including Warner. Since this was coupled with news of Apple moving toward launching its own streaming music service (dubbed "iRadio," of course), it was a double whammy against Pandora's thus-far unsuccessful efforts to become profitable.
Now what: Apple doesn't need iRadio to be a profit-spinner -- it simply needs to be another lure for potential iPhone (and iPad and iPod) buyers. Apple can easily annihilate Pandora's path to profitability as it signs labels to deals that will likely become the "new normal" for streaming radio. As a free service lacking the premium content options offered on satellite radio, Pandora's only real competitive advantage is in the sheer bulk of its music library. No label or artist is going to want to give Pandora access for a 4% cut if they can get double that rate elsewhere.
Pandora has won millions of devotees among music fans, but few supporters on Wall Street. The online jukebox seems to be redefining the way we consume music, a transformation that's only likely to grow. But high royalty rates and competition from all corners threatens to silence the company. Can Pandora translate success with its listeners into a prosperous business model that will deliver for investors? Learn about the key opportunities and potential pitfalls facing the upstart radio streamer in The Motley Fool's premium research report.

Buzz Kill: the Truth About "Caffeine Allergy"
By Dr. Paul Ehrlich Our editor informs me that the old rumor about caffeine allergy is alive and well out in Twitterland. Let me say as plainly as I know how: a reaction to caffeine, no matter how real, cannot be an allergy. An allergy is an immune response to proteins or protein components in […]Read more

song: Maxwell "pretty wings" Filipino immigrants faced special harassment in California during the 1920s and 1930s. In Carlos Bulosans book America Is In the Heart, it chronicles a period betwen 1907 to 1926 when 150000 Filipinos immigrated to the United States to find employment, with a majority of the group landing in Hawaii and California. The Filipinos in California were mostly young unmarried men with little education and few skills, and they hoped to stay for a little while in America, make money, then return home to the Philippines. Filipinos of this time faced harassment from white Americans because they were not as averse as other minorities to date and that they marry white women. Documents organizations like Native Sons of the Golden West, the Commonwealth Club and prominent figures like former president of the University of California Dr. David P. Barrows testifying before Congress of the threat of Filipino men mixing with white women. In Watsonville, California, in 1930, four hundred white men attacked a Filipino dance hall where Filipino men danced with white women and many Filipinos were beaten and one was shot to death. In 1930 a white man testified before the House Committee on Immigration and Naturalization, The Filipinos are a social menace as they will not leave our white girls alone and frequently intermarry As a result of all this white pressure, thirteen states prohibited marriages between whites and Filipinos. now in a modern world we live in... 25 ...

The Emotional Toll of Having a Sick BabyLauren Jimeson
Last week Macks was sick for the very first time. At 7 weeks he was coughing, had a stuffy nose, and labored breathing.
On Wednesday morning I took Macks to the doctor, only to wait hours after doing test after test to pinpoint why he wasn't feeling well. Thankfully he didn't have a fever, but I knew deep down that something wasn't right.
His pediatrician finally resolved that his labored breathing was caused by mucous being in his lungs. What I thought was just a cold turned out to be bronchiolitis. As soon as I heard this news tears began to well up in my eyes. This little boy that I had given birth to just seven weeks ago was sick — and I couldn't do anything about it.
The doctor told me not to cry, but how could I not? This was my child we were talking about. I was scared, overwhelmed, and anxious about what we were going to do next. They gave him a breathing treatment with the nebulizer so that they could check his stats after and see if they improved.
They did. And with that good news they sent us home with the nebulizer medicine and orders to give him that every four hours with a follow up appointment in the morning. Macks was attached to me that entire day. He didn't want to sleep on anyone or anything but me, and I was okay with that. He felt comfort in nursing and I would let him nurse as long as he wanted. I just wanted him to be comfortable.
Deep down inside I was crumbling — worried that something worse might come of this. Worried because there was absolutely nothing else I could do other than what I was doing. Worried because I was excluding my other two children from us because I didn't want them to get sick.
There is nothing that can prepare you for the emotions that you encounter when your child is sick, for the thoughts that run through your mind and the tears that are shed. It just makes you realize how deep the love is that you have for your child. I am so thankful that Macks is on the mend and that it wasn't anything worse. It's yet another reminder that we need to cherish every single moment with our little ones.

Kingston Technology
HyperX Cloud II Headset Review
Introduction HyperX, a sub-division of Kingston, hit the market strong over the few last years. They have created a name that has been praised by many and they have taken a big leap into PC Peripherals and Accessories arena. During CES 2014, HyperX announced the launch of its headset the HyperX Cloud. The Cloud headset got great reviews from many sites last year including our own, and this year at CES 2015 they launched a revision called the HyperX Cloud II headset. With its relaunch of the headset, our question is…will the HyperX Cloud II headset live up to its older brother's expectations? Well… today we are going to put the new HyperX Cloud II to the test and find out. If you have not read our review on the version 1 of this headset, head over to our review section Here and read the full review so you can compare the difference like we are doing today. But before we do that, let's talk a little bit about who HyperX is. About HyperX: "HyperX is the high-performance product division of Kingston Technology, the world's largest independent memory manufacturer. Started in 2002, HyperX began with one line of high-performance memory and has grown over the years to encompass multiple product lines of memory modules, solid-state drives, USB Flash drives, headsets and mouse pads. Featuring best-in-class components that have delivered superior performance, quality and aesthetic design for more than a decade, HyperX products are the choice of...
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB 1866MHz CL10 Memory (HX318C10FWK2/8) Review
Kingston Technologies have been in the memory business over two decades and are known for their reliable and fast memory. Today we are going to be looking at Kingston's new HyperX line called "Fury". This new Fury line from Kingston will position itself against its current mainstream HyperX Genesis and high-end HyperX Predator lines. The HyperX Fury pretty much lines up with its competitor from Corsair the Vengeance line. This will give consumers more options and widens that market share. The Fury line was not designed to be the best of the best, but is meant to meet that middle line between your beginning users and the higher-end clients. We have speeds ranging from 1333MHz to 1866Mhz which will be available in 8GB single sticks or 8GB to 16GB kits. Let's put the Kingston HyperX Furry DDR3 1866MHz kit we got for review to the test and see how well it performs.
Kingston 64GB DataTraveler Locker+G3 USB Drive Review
Portable storage devices like USB thumb drives have been around over the last decade or so. Despite this, we are starting to see a much higher use from such drives in the last few years, especially with capacity on them being larger and faster. However, sometimes storing data on such drives can increase the risk of having your data easily lost or stolen. Well, today we are going to be looking at a new Kingston 64GB DataTraveler Locker+ G3 USB 3.0 thumb drive that aims to help with that. What's so different about this drive? It includes some extra security which requires a password to access the drive! Kingston released a software based USB drive that will only give you access to the drive once the password you set up is input. The password encoded drive will help secure all the files stored, which will give you piece of mind that your data is safe for traveling or normal every day use. Today as we continue forward, we are going to test the Kingston 64GB DataTraveler Locker + G3 in multiple scenarios to evaluate the performance, security and reliability of the drive.
Kingston 64GB SDXC Class 3 Memory Card & USB 3.0 MobileLite G3 Review
During our visit with Kingston at CES 2014 this year, we had a chance to sit down with them to talk about the new and up-coming flash memory cards that are designed for HD Media use. With the advancing and growing media recording industry, faster and more reliable flash memory cards are on high demand, especially those looking for high capacity to store everything on one card. With the standards of 1080p recording, Ultra HD 2160p and 3D/2K&4K resolutions on the horizon, the number of pixels on recording devices can no longer suffice with the slower and lower capacity memory cards. It has been a couple of months since the initial talk and today we finally got our hands on the Kingston 64GB SDXC Class 3 UHS-I U3 flash memory card. Kingston developed this particular card in three available sizes, 16GB, 32GB and 64GB. The last one will be the memory card we take a look at today. Kingston was also nice enough to send us the Kingston Mobile Lite G3 SD and Micro-SD card USB 3.0 reader as an extra bonus to be able to test the memory card today. With the speed advancements in the SDXC memory card, we wanted to make sure there are no bottlenecks.
Kingston 8GB HyperX Predator Memory Kit – KHX26C11T2K2/8X
Introduction Over the last decade or so we have seen a speedy advancement in memory. Not too long ago we were talking about the DDR1 era with speeds of 400MHz as the bragging rights. Then we take a few steps forward and DDR2 came along, followed by DDR3 not too long after, as things continued to evolve. DDR3 has been one of the longest running memory platforms, going on 5 years now. Until the next big advancement in memory bandwidth comes along, we will simply continue to see incremental tweaks in the evolution of DDR3. That's what we have today. With each growing chipset we are seeing new advancements with Intel's IMC (internal memory controller). Today we are taking a look at a new memory set which will bring a new level of speed with Haswell. We have on our test bench today a set of Kingston HyperX Predator DDR3 2666MHz memory. This set, is specifically made to work with our Haswell IMC, and could push new limits for all us speed demons. Let's put it to the test and find out! Before we move forward, let's read a bit about Kingston: "Founded in 1987 with a single product offering, Kingston Technology now offers more than 2,000 memory products that support nearly every device that uses memory, from computers, servers and printers to MP3 players, digital cameras and cell phones. In 2007, the company's sales exceeded $4.5 billion. With global headquarters in Fountain Valley, California, Kingston employs more than 4,500 people worldwide. Re...

Singer-songwriters are about so much more than music.
Top talent now have their hands in everything, including one of Houston's most celebrated songstresses. Gospel great Yolanda Adams is back with what she's hoping will be another hit.
She already has a nationally syndicated morning radio show, Grammy Award-winning Gospel music, a clothing line, and now something just as sweet: a line of bath and body products.
The products are simply called "Yolanda." They include signature body washes, creams, and oils.
"It pretty much is a natural progression," Adams said to KHOU 11 News. "I want to do everything I possibly love to do on this Earth before I leave this Earth."
With her ever-expanding empire, Yolanda's easily become a lifestyle brand. So what's next? Yolanda plans to debut a line for men next year.
The best part is the items are all of great value. The most expensive product is only $18.50.

Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice Review
Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice is one of the best PSP games I've played. Get into gear, and get this game.
This is the great thing about PF:EJ. One second you'll be speeding after an enemy convoy, jumping from vehicle to vehicle as you desperately try and take the boss down before he reaches his base, the next you'll be picked up by a mate in a chopper and asked to provide covering fire with a sniper rifle. Us game hacks say things like "thrill a minute" and "adrenaline pumping" probably too much, but in this case it's absolutely justified.
What am I most impressed by? How solid the driving is. The way cars feel to drive, the sense of speed and urgency, the sound they make, the great graphics. Whether it's the sirens wailing on your Pursuit Force car or a Mad Max-style drag complete with dead goon flopping about a turret fixed to the back - it all feels just right. Add to this the lens flare, no pop-up, the impressively varied scenery and wonderfully detailed and varied vehicles and you've got something that feels like one of the best racers around. If I can liken it to anything, it's like giving the cars from Burnout a lick of action paint.
PF: EJ is also a better Fantastic Four game than any of the dire movie-licensed games pumped out since the films release. The story, while overrun with cliché, hammy dialogue and predictable plot, is a perfect fit for the game. The main single-player campaign, which will take you at least five hours of solid play to work your way through, features some eye-catching characters. From the ridiculously throaty Pursuit Force chief, complete with classic "I don't pay you to die" quotes when you, erm, die, to the tough-talking token rude boy who specializes in close-quarters combat, everything in the game makes sense. It's silly, yes, but it's silly fun.
And when you're done with the single-player campaign you can turn your headlights towards the four-player wireless multiplayer mode or try to unlock the added content by replaying story mode cases in the Bounty Mode and earning stars. You can then spend these stars in the shop, buying movies, cheats and tonnes of other cars and bad guys from the game's five gangs.
Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice is one of the best PSP games I've played. It's not trying to be an epic action shooter, nor is it a simple arcade racer. It's a mish-mash of all of these things, and more. Get into gear, and get this game.

Elevated blood pressure is common at the time of presentation among patients with ischemic stroke, occurring in two-thirds to three-quarters of cases.1,2 The early hypertension that follows ischemic stroke often reflects undiagnosed or undertreated chronic hypertension. However, in the great preponderance of patients, an early hypertensive response to brain ischemia is an important contributing factor, partially explained by neuroendocrine response to physiologic stress. This initial hypertensive response is self-limiting, most marked in the first few hours following the onset of cerebral ischemia and resolving over several days. Within the first 24 hours after stroke, blood pressure spontaneously declines by about one-quarter in most patients.3

Featured Activities
Activities for 0FJ97Study and Interpret New Images of New Worlds
This activity lets students study the most recent pictures from Galileo and make interpretations. Using free software, lessons, and images, your students can simulate the scientific adventure of peering at new worlds. Learners can simulate the work of scientists investigating geological features of the Jovian moon Europa. The students can also attempt to figure out the relative geological age of discreet features in one region of Europa. This qualitative analysis will lead student investigators to experience science using scientific tools.
Design a Spacecraft to test for Life on Europa
This activity will introduce students to the process involved with designing a spacecraft and testing for life on Europa. The main goal of this activity is to encourage student thinking and to focus on the process not necessarily the results. We are interested in posting any experiences that you and your students have.
Find Jupiter in the Night Sky
Jupiter is currently visible in the early morning sky and will remain visible throughout OFJ97, however, finding Jupiter is a challenge indeed because of its relative closeness to the Sun. This activity provides information on how to find Jupiter and encourages students to work together and develop a process for observing. We are interested in posting any experiences you might have looking for Jupiter.
This activity will be available in late-June, 1997Life on Europa
Europa, one of Jupiter's moons, might have life on it and this activity will help students examine the possibility. They will be able to interact with scientists and other classrooms to discuss this most interesting place.
Activities for OFJ (1995-96)When Will the Probe Get Squashed?
ProbeSquash involved estimating the exact time that the Probe would stop operating. More precisely, students were challenged to predict the duration of the Probe mission from when it turned on to the point at which the Probe stopped sending useful science data. A series of clues provided over time allowed insight into the factors that caused the Probe to stop working.
The MNEMONIC game
Students were invited to create mnemonics to help remember the names of the major Jovian moons. We collected and shared these mnemonics widely. The entries were judged and the best were awarded small prizes.

In antiquity, comets came to have a reputation for being omens of disaster, portending the death of rulers, the outbreak of war, or the onset of plague, drought, or earthquakes. The intriguing question is: When and how did this notion become established in classical Greek and Roman culture? Surprisingly, the belief that comets are baleful signs cannot be documented until comparatively late.
An examination of textual and material evidence from antiquity, including an array of coins and artwork, demonstrates that in the Bronze Age and in the 5th and 4th centuries BC, comets were by no means always regarded as bad omens. On the contrary, some of this evidence indicates that even as late as the early decades of the first century BC, comets were occasionally treated as auspicious objects. The earliest attested expression of what was to become the stock view of comets as omens of calamity is linked to the return of Comet Halley in 87 BC. It is quite easy to understand how that comet in particular might have helped give rise to the belief that comets portended war and death because the comet of 87 was accompanied by both a devastating plague and the Marian Civil War at Rome. Two later comets that were observed in the same generation doubtless reinforced the notion that comets were messengers of doom: a comet in 49 BC that coincided with the outbreak of the civil war between Pompey and Caesar, and the famous daylight-visible comet of 44 BC that appeared four months after the assassination of Caesar. The weight of the evidence points to the conclusion that in the Ciceronian Age, there was a notable shift in the way the meaning of comets was interpreted. These celestial objects, which had always inspired wonder and awe, were henceforth chiefly regarded as messengers of doom and disaster.
Admission is free and open to the public. A reception will follow the lecture. Sponsored by the Adler Planetarium and the Archaeological Institute of America: The Chicago Society

Six Flags Q4 profit slips even as 2013 attendance grows
Theme-park operator Six Flags Entertainment Corp. saw fourth quarter profit slip, but still ended 2013 with a 2 percent gain in guest counts.
For the period that ended Dec. 31, profit attributable to Six Flags was $13.3 million or 13 cents a share. That's down from the 2012 profit of $155.8 million or $1.40 a share a year ago when profits benefited from the sale of the company's minority stake in Dick Clark Productions. Also the company reported a one-time $249 million tax benefit in 2012.
Annual attendance for 2013 grew 2 percent to 26.1 million guests.
Total guest spending per capita in 2013 increased 2 percent over 2012 to $40.18 – the first full year posting above $40. Admissions per capita for the year increased 3 percent to $23.03 while in-park spending per capita grew 1 percent to $17.15.
Wednesday's news release announcing the company's 2013 financials, did not reference the company's decision to file suit against the German maker of the Texas Giant ride, following the death of a rider last summer.
It also was not mentioned during a call with analysts.
Jim Reid-Anderson, chairman, president and chief executive said 2013 guest-satisfaction scores reached a record high, and that the company got high marks for safety.
The guest ratings on safety were measured both before and after the July accident – mostly after, the company said.
The family of the victim, Rosa Esparza, a 52-year-old grandmother, is suing both the theme park company and the ride maker.
The ride maker, Gerstlauer Amusement Rides, has not filed suit against Six Flags, the company said.

Those expecting to see the No. 4 seed College of the Canyons women's soccer team cruise into the second round of the California Community College Athletic Association playoffs witnessed a completely different series of events.
In a physical match, the Cougars scored twice in the final 20 minutes of play to come back and defeat No. 13 seed Mt. San Antonio College 2-1 in the opening round of the postseason Saturday night at Cougar Stadium.
"Our girls have a lot of heart. They're champions," said COC head coach Justin Lundin, whose team finished first in the Western State Conference. "They play like champions, and you can never count us out. Until that last whistle blows, you're going to get everything that they have."
COC (17-1-4) saved its best play for late in the game as its leading scorer Stacy Atwater saved the season for the Cougars.
Trailing 1-0 in the 80th minute, the forward from Saugus High found a rebound off a corner kick and blasted the ball into the back of the net to even the score.
"Corner kick. Anabell (Gonzalez) headed (the ball) into the air," Atwater said. "And if it wasn't for her heading the ball and getting up with the keeper right there, I wouldn't have had the chance."
Atwater capitalized on another prime opportunity with less than two minutes to play in regulation.
After handling a deflection at the top-right corner of the box, the sophomore angled a shot across the box and went top-shelf left to give COC a 2-1 lead.
"I was honestly, like, let me just try this and see if it goes in. And I just hit it and it happened to go in, so it was awesome." Atwater said.
Mt. SAC (12-4-6) got on the board in the 61st minute as midfielder Carlee Chien controlled a rebound in the box and found an opening past COC goalkeeper Katherine Koury.
The Mounties tallied 11 shots, seven of those on goal, while eight of COC's 20 shots were on target.
The match was hard fought and physical.
Each team recorded 12 fouls, and many more could have easily been called.
"If you don't call the fouls and you don't set the tone as the ref, the girls are going to do whatever they can. Whatever you're letting them get away with, they're going to do that." Lundin said.
COC is in the midst of a seven-game winning streak in which it has outscored its opponents 21-2.
The Cougars will play the winner of No. 5 seed San Diego Miramar College and No. 12 seed Citrus College in the second round of the CCCAA playoffs on either Tuesday or Wednesday.

CBNNews.com - WESTERN NEGEV, Israel - Palestinian terrorists fired a 10-shell mortar barrage on IDF(Israel Defense Forces) troops near the Kissufim crossing with the Gaza Strip around 9:30 a.m. Friday.
Unconfirmed reports said the barrage came after troops opened fire at a Palestinian gunman attempting to approach the border fence.
The mortars exploded in open areas without injuring anyone or damaging property.
On Thursday afternoon, four Palestinians trying to plant a bomb along the fence fled when IDF troops approached them.
Thursday evening about 6:00 p.m, a Kassam hit near Sderot, followed two hours later by a couple more, again without injuries or property damage.
The IDF has been responding to the attacks by targeting smuggling tunnels along the Philadelphi Corridor between the Gaza Strip and the Egyptian Sinai.
On Thursday, the IAF (Israel Air Force) destroyed six arms smuggling tunnels along the route in three air strikes.
The "large secondary explosions" that came after the strikes proved "the presence of weapons and munitions," the IDF reported.
Air strikes also targeted Hamas outposts and active rocket launching pads.
Since the end of Israel's three-week military operation in the Gaza Strip a month ago, Palestinians have fired more than 50 rockets, missiles and mortar shells on southern Israel.
Notwithstanding rocket fire, attempts to plant explosive devices along the border and sniper fire, Israel delivered 400,000 liters of fuel and 130 truckloads of humanitarian aid to Gazans on Thursday, the IDF's Spokesman's Office reported.

Another idea that won't fly here
Harry McGee
From this morning's Guardian. A radical idea. See below. Politically suicidel here. The documentary on advertising on RTE last night featured the first Ryanair aid, the one that claimed that Aer Lingus was charging nearly a hundred quid for breakfast. The cheap Ryanair alternative was a £95 return fare to London. Taking inflation and all other indices into account, the cheap fare seems ludicrously high.
People have taken a battering here. And the weather has been appalling. Logically, higher fares make more sense. But any politician who would float it would be cruising for a bruising. In horrendously tough times, people view cheap flights abroad as their last refuge.
Cost of air travel 'must rise to deter people from flying'
David Batty, Caroline Davies
guardian.co.uk News Wed 9 Sep 2009 08:29 BST
Government advisory body on climate change says ticket prices should rise to ensure that CO2 emissions fall back to 2005 levels
The cost of air travel must rise to an extent that it deters people from flying and to compensate developing countries for the damage it does to the environment, according to the government's advisory body on climate change.
Ticket prices should rise to ensure that carbon dioxide emissions from aviation fall back to 2005 levels and to raise tens of billions of pounds in flight taxes to help developing nations adapt to climate change, for example, by building new flood defences, the committee on climate change says.
An agreement to cap aviation emissions must be reached at the UN climate talks in Copenhagen if countries are to meet targets to combat global warming. Rich countries should take the lead, ensuring their aviation emissions are no higher or lower than they were in 2005 by 2050, the committee said in a letter to ministers.
It says airlines should be forced to share the burden of meeting that emissions cut, the Times reports.

Media Release: Minister opens R4 Million Visitor Centre at Cape Point
Date: 2003-01-20
ONE of Cape Town's most popular tourist destinations is to get another world-class visitor facility thanks to a multi-million rand grant from the City of Cape Town and overseas donors. The Buffelsfontein Visitor Centre at Cape Point, officially known as the Cape of Good Hope section of the Cape Peninsula National Park, was opened recently (18 January 2003) by Mr. Johan Gelderblom, Western Cape Minister of Agriculture, Tourism and Gambling. The Centre is located in the historic Buffelsfontein homestead, which dates back to the early 1740's.
In 1939 the Cape Divisional Council purchased the Buffelsfontein farm, to become the nodal area of what would become today's Cape of Good Hope section of the Cape Peninsula National Park. Since this time the farmhouse has served as accommodation for game wardens, as a tearoom and lastly until 1995 as a restaurant. However, with the opening of the Two Oceans restaurant at Cape Point in 1996, the building has stood derelict. "Thanks to a R2,5 million grant from the City of Cape Town, R750 000 from the French Global Environmental Facility and R280 000 from the World Bank's Global Environmental Facility, as well as additional funding from SA National Parks, the homestead has taken on a new lease of life as an environmental interpretation centre," says Howard Langley, outgoing park manager for the Cape Peninsula National Park.
According to Mr. Gelderblom, tourism has become one of the fastest growing revenue generators for the region. "During this past December and January alone, international tourists injected about R4-billion into the Western Cape economy, while domestic tourists spent in the region of R650-million.
"Attracting an average of 800 000 visits per annum, Cape Point forms one of the proverbial jewels in the crown. As such we need to cherish this priceless asset, constantly adding value to ensure that its allure never wanes. The opening of the Buffelsfontein Visitor Centre will add another dimension to the multi-facetted Cape Point experience," says Gelderblom.
The Centre will house a full complement of artefact displays, state-of-the-art audio visual equipment and information material covering all aspects of the area's natural and cultural wealth.
Soon, the Centre will become the hub for a wide range of activities. It will serve as a classroom for students who will be able to stay over at the environmental overnight facility being planned at Bordjiesrif. It is also here that the Cape Peninsula National Park will sell GO GREEN cards, where a variety of hikes will begin, where volunteers will congregate, where activities will be publicised and even perhaps where mountain bikes or kayaks can be hired.
The Centre will be manned by CPNP staff and volunteers seven days a week from 08h00 to 17h00.
