Undergraduate Research Mentoring Awards
Application Information
The Office of Undergraduate Research offers two faculty awards designed to honor the practice of mentoring undergraduate research and scholarship at the University of Houston. The awards are intended to recognize demonstrated excellence in supporting undergraduate researchers, to encourage mentoring relationships with undergraduate students, and to convey the campus' high regard for such contributions made by the faculty of the academic and research community.
These awards are granted to faculty members who mentor undergraduates outside of the classroom, and who are committed to undergraduate research, which extends above and beyond a course experience. The selection committee defines mentored research as faculty members advising and working one-on-one with students on personalized, creative, enriching projects.
The University of Houston embraces its mission of providing a broad range of educational programs and services at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. One area of importance entails increasing the participation of undergraduate students in the research component of the university's mission. The Faculty Awards for Mentoring Undergraduate Research encourage faculty to support the university's mission and enhance research opportunities on campus for undergraduate students.
The Early Faculty Award for Mentoring Undergraduate Research celebrates the mentorship efforts at the University of Houston of junior faculty who are in the earlier stages of their careers. Candidates must be full-time tenured or tenure track faculty members from any department at the University of Houston main campus, and in one of the following categories:
1. Be within eight years of their terminal degrees independent of rank
2. Have a rank of Assistant Professor
3. Have a rank of Associate Professor without tenure
This one-time cash award of $1500 is available to faculty who are making a significant impact in their field by supporting and mentoring undergraduate students in research and scholarship endeavors. Applicants must have demonstrated mentorship involvement for at least three years at the University of Houston main campus.
The Lifetime Faculty Award for Mentoring Undergraduate Research is a career award for individuals whose efforts in undergraduate mentorship at the University of Houston have been exceptional over a large number of years. This one-time cash award of $3000 is open to tenured full professors and associate professors who have made a lasting commitment to undergraduate research within their respective departments, and have served at the University of Houston main campus for at least 10 years.
Nominations for both awards should present evidence that the nominees have made significant contributions to advancing undergraduate research and scholarship on the University of Houston main campus. Applicants should not include mentorship that took place outside of the University of Houston, nor should candidates include information on undergraduate research courses they have taught. This means candidates should not include information on senior design courses and course projects within their application materials. The Office of Undergraduate Research's faculty selection committee reviews the nominations. The strongest nominations will demonstrate a commitment to undergraduate research through specific examples such as peer-reviewed publications involving undergraduates, student presentations, showings, or performances, awards or scholarships, and evidence for the continuing success of mentored students in the research endeavor (where the students are now if possible). The selection committee reserves the right to be flexible in the selection process and may determine which category an applicant will be judged. The committee may also award as many or as few awards as they see fit. For instance, in one application cycle they may award multiple junior awards and no senior award. Should you feel your undergraduate mentoring activities are particularly strong, but your position and time at the University do not allow you to qualify for either award, please contact Stuart Long.
Nomination forms for 2014 are available below. One .pdf file of all nomination materials and letters of support must be emailed to Karen Weber at the Office of Undergraduate Research by February 3, 2014 at 5 p.m.

The NX20 is a recent addition to Samsung's NX range and features Wi-Fi functionality as well as other changes to set it apart from previous models. We gave it a thorough review to find out how it performs
Samsung NX20 Review
Samsung NX20 – Features
Before we find out how the wireless connectivity works, lets familiarize ourselves with the NX20's key features and see what's changed. Like Samsung's NX200 that was launched last year, the NX20 utilises the same 20.3Mp APS-C sized CMOS image sensor, which has also been put to use within the Samsung NX1000 and NX210. Measuring 23.5×15.7mm, one of the improvements this sensor brings to the NX20 is a broader ISO range of 100-12800 and it works out as a 2EV improvement when you compare it to the NX11's more conservative 100-3200 offering.
The maximum permitted shutter speed and continuous burst rate have both been increased. Previously on the NX11 the fastest you could shoot at was 1/4000sec, but this has now been uprated to 1/8000sec to allow you to shoot at the same shutter speeds that are found on most D-SLR's. The NX20 is a much faster camera all round. It's 8fps continuous burst rate and reduced shutter lag (40ms) bring it up to speed with mirrorless rivals on the market and the 5fps burst advantage it has over the NX11 makes its forerunner seem somewhat pedestrian in comparison.
Another leap forward is the addition of a 3in, 614k-dot articulated screen at the rear. Being the Vari-angle type it can be pulled out from the body into almost any position for those times when you're composing from high or low angles. Classed as an AMOLED display this means there's no air gap between the display and protective glass. This by Samsung's accounts improves the screens reflective resistance, produces deeper blacks and displays more accurate, vivid colours.
The SVGA electronic viewfinder that's found above the screen has a 100% field of view and an impressive 1.44 million-dot resolution. Electronic viewfinder eye sensors are a feature that we've seen come and go on compact system cameras but the NX20 benefits from one so there's no need to go searching for a pesky EVF/LCD button. When viewing the screen and you want to switch to the viewfinder or visa versa you simply raise or lower it from your eye.
Supporting i-Function 2.0 – a system whereby you can adjust common shooting settings such as shutter speed and aperture from a touch of a button on the lens, the NX20 comes with 16 scene-shooting modes to choose from including panorama, beauty shot and 3D photo should you wish to plug it into a 3D enabled Samsung TV.For those keen on producing the occasional movie, full HD video (1920×1080) is also supported with an option to take control of program, aperture priority, shutter priority and manual modes from the movie AE mode option in the menu.
Previous NX customers will be glad to know the NX20 uses the same BP1310 battery that's found in the NX11. This gives anyone who's looking to upgrade the opportunity to reuse batteries and chargers from their existing model rather than having to go out and invest in spares.
A quick glance at the NX20 from the front and it's difficult to spot where the design changes have taken place. What's most noticeable is the likeness the NX20 has to the conventional shape of a D-SLR, albeit a lot smaller and more compact. Weighing 341g, it's roughly 30% lighter than the NX11 and features a newly sculpted handgrip to improve handling and comfort. In an average sized hand the feel is superb and you're able to wrap four fingers round the grip with ease. Your thumb is left to rest on a comfortable thumb rest and over prolonged periods of use we found little, if anything, to fault in terms of its handling.
The NX20's buttons aren't overly large. Those with large fingers may find it trickier to operate but having said that all the buttons are well arranged. Like a D-SLR the mode dial can be operated single handedly and for those spur of the moment video recordings the movie-rec button is in easy reach of the thumb. Metering gets its own dedicated button on the top plate to save you hunting around in the menu and the Fn button is particularly useful if you'd like to quickly change image quality, drive mode or a list of other variables.
How much use the i-Function function sees is dependent on the user and the way he or she likes to operate the camera. We're very much in favour of i-Fn and have been since the day it first arrive. For whatever reason you don't like the idea of using the manual focus ring to make your setting adjustments, you can alternatively use the scroll dial on the top plate.
As for the NX20's menu system it is split into five categories – camera, movie, custom, settings and GPS. The white text on black background with a blue colour indicating your selection is very clear and effective. Furthermore, the screen flips out to the side very smoothly and offers a reassuring click as it's folded in on itself when not being used.

The white text on black background with a blue colour indicating your selection is very clear and effective. Furthermore, the screen flips out to the side very smoothly and offers a reassuring click as it's folded in on itself when not being used.
A significant improvement is the electronic viewfinder. Crisper and sharper than before with its improved 1.44 million-dot resolution, the eye sensor is very quick at switching between the EVF feed and screen when pulling the camera away from your eye but is slightly less responsive when you're lifting the camera back up and it's something we'd like to see become more instantaneous.
The NX20's contrast-detect AF system performs reasonably well, locking onto subjects without any major concerns in bright lighting conditions. The bright green AF-assist lamp is useful for illuminating close subjects in extremely dark conditions, though we did find ourselves half depressing the shutter twice before hearing the reassuring AF beep in some darker situations. Our main gripe with AF operation is the inability to position the AF point to the far corners of the frame – something that we know can be done and is a feat that Panasonic first accomplished on the GX1.
So what about the NX20's trump card – its Wi-fI connectivity? Sharing images to social sharing sites such as Facebook, Picasa, YouTube and Photobucket couldn't be easier. Simply turn the NX20's mode dial to Wi-Fi and you'll first be asked to join a local network. Using the jog dial isn't the fastest way of entering Wi-Fi details, but it's fairly quick to get used to. Logging into Facebook requires you to enter your ID and password and after that you're given the choice of the JPEG files you want to upload. Up to 20 files can be selected providing the total size does not exceed 10MB and the longest video you can upload is 30 seconds at QVGA resolution.
Upload speeds will vary dependent on your Internet connection but during our tests we uploaded single images to Facebook in less than 2 seconds.
To send files to a smart phone you'll require Samsung's Mobile Link application. This is supported by Galaxy series smart phones with Android 2.2 OS or higher however it should be noted RAW files cannot be transmitted. With the NX20's mode dial set to Wi-Fi and provided the Mobile Link application is turned you're given the option to select multiple files you wish to send from the camera to the smart phone.
Alternatively there's also the option of using your smart phone as a remote shutter release for the NX20. To use this facility you will need to first install the remote viewfinder application from Samsung Apps or the Android market.
Image Quality
Packing a large APS-C sized sensor, image quality is a key area where we expect the NX20 to excel. Given the choice of three metering modes – Multi, center-weighted and spot, it produced well-balanced exposures, even in tricky conditions where bright highlights and dark shadows could easily fool a metering system. On the rare occasion that highlights were clipped in our images, highlight detail was quickly retained in Camera RAW by setting the recovery slider between +20 and +30. Tonally the shots were punchy too. Colour in our test images faithfully resembled the scenes we photographed, leaving us with little work to do in post processing.
Samsung NX20 review sample image gallery
With more and more CSC's pushing the creative effects they offer, the NX20 seems to be lagging behind slightly in this area. Picture Wizard has nine presets to try out including landscape, forest, retro and classic but don't expect to be able to apply more creative effects such as selective colour or miniature effects in-camera.
To convert our files we used Adobe's DNG Converter 6.7 but for those using Photoshop CS6, Camera RAW 7.1 also supports the NX20's RAW files. Image sharpness and detail is well controlled by the CMOS sensor, though noise is present at higher ISO's. Noise is handled well up to ISO 800, but push beyond this point and it's noticeable when images are viewed at close proximity. We identified no shift in colour up to ISO 3200, however at ISO 6400 and 12800 our test images did appear to have a very slight magenta cast. For optimum results, you'll want to keep the sensitivity below ISO 800 and rely on the higher settings only when you really need to.
Costing £899 with the 18-55mm kit lens, the NX20 is undoubtedly one of the more expensive compact system cameras currently on the market. You can expect the price to fall over coming months but when you consider the NX11 could be picked up for £500 at its time of launch it does make you question whether the latest features justify the extra outlay.
One of the NX20's closest rivals is the Olympus's OM-D E-M5. The latter works out at £250 more than the NX20 when it's bundled with the 12-50mm lens. There's not a huge amount to separate the two other than the NX20 looking slightly more D-SLR like in terms of design. Both feature flip out screens, both feature electronic viewfinders and both offer full manual control of camera settings as you'd expect with a CSC. You could say the OM-D is the more complete system with a total of 10 lenses supporting it, however Samsung has made a point of expanding the NX lens lineup and to date there are 8 NX-series lenses covering focal lengths from 16mm through to 200mm.
The NX20 has come a long way from the NX10 and NX11. When the NX11 was announced there wasn't a huge amount to get excited about when comparing it to the NX10. The NX20 offers more innovative features to make it an attractive proposition. Slightly dubious as to how the Wi-Fi connectivity would perform, we experienced no troubles at all during our testing and shared images on social media websites without a hitch. It's a feature that we predict will catch on with other manufacturers and if we were to speculate it may become a feature within entry-level D-SLR's sooner than you might think.
It's not only the Wi-Fi functionality that makes the NX20 stand out in the CSC market. i-Fn lens compatibility is unique to Samsung and as mentioned earlier it may not appeal to all users, but it does make for an intuitive way of changing the cameras most commonly used settings. As the old saying goes, you'll either love it or hate it.
Detail and sharpness in our test images was very good and the handling can't be criticised. Buttons including the menu button are much better located to the right of the screen rather than at the top left of the body. We'd say the AF performance is an improvement on its forerunner, however we'd still prefer to experience less hunting in low-light conditions. Adding to this, we'd also like the option of positioning the AF point right into the corners of the frame.
The real question mark with the NX20 lies with its price and performance – it's very expensive and is a bit on the sluggish side when working quickly. Yes it's well made and feels like it'll last for a very long time but you could make a significant saving if you opt for an entry-level D-SLR or D-SLT instead. If a D-SLR really isn't for you but you'd like a smaller CSC that looks much like one, the NX20 is worth taking a look at.

Historic snow, downed mailboxes and the jet stream
February 19, 2014 —
UPPER DELAWARE RIVER VALLEY — Just in case it escaped anyone's attention, it has snowed more than usual over the past couple of weeks. In Scranton, for the period between February 1 and February 15, the normal snowfall amount is about five inches; this year the total was 24.4 inches. In New York City's Central Park, the normal is also five inches, and this year the total was 27.3 inches.
In Sullivan County, NY, there is normally 15.7 inches of snow for the entire month, and we blew past that mark early on in the second big snowfall of the month.
There is talk among weather watchers that the reason for the extended period of cold weather and snow has to do with the weakening of the jet stream because of warmer temperatures in the arctic. The theory says that the weaker jet stream allows weather patterns to remain in place longer. But like most things even tangentially connected to climate change, this theory is a bit controversial.
Whatever the reason, the weather is causing townships, towns, villages and counties to bust their plowing and sanding budgets, and schools are facing extra days in June to make up for the many snow days.
Mail boxes in Texas Township
Snow plowing was a topic of conversation at the Texas Township meeting in Pennsylvania on February 17. Resident Georgette Pascotto, who ran for the position of supervisor in 2011, said that four mailboxes between her home on Fords Road and Route 6 had been knocked over or nearly so by a snow plow.
She said, "That seems like an inordinate amount of damage to mailboxes with this plowing, and I'd like to know what can be done."
Supervisor Allan Wickle, who is also the roadmaster and operates the snowplow, said, "Look at Route 6; the state's got a whole pile of them, too. You've got tons of snow going off the end of that plow, and if the mailboxes are on a couple of popsicle sticks," they won't survive the plow.
Pascotto said, "I think some of these mail boxes were actually hit not with snow but with the plow itself, and maybe it's a matter of going a little bit slower."
Wickle replied, "I don't think I've hit a mailbox with a plow yet." Regarding speed, he added a bit later, "I've got to get that snow going, if you go slow it just rolls right back down into the road."
Pascotto said she thought it would be costly for the township because the township would have to pay for the damage.
Supervisors Chair Don Doney said that was not his understanding, because the mailboxes are located in the right-of-way.

Phillies Honored At The PSWA Awards Banquet
On Monday night, the Philadelphia Sports Writers Association held their 107th annual awards banquet in Cherry Hill, NJ. The PSWA honors athletes in every sport around the Philadelphia area.
This year, the PSWA honored Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay as the Outstanding Pro Athlete of 2010. He was also presented with his 2010 Cy Young award. Shane Victorino received the Humanitarian Award for his charitable efforts in the community.
A large portion of the Phillies family was in attendance as well, including President Dave Montgomory, the Phanatic, GM Ruben Amaro Jr. and manager Charlie Manuel. As a guest speaker, Manuel had the crowd in stitches with his southern humor.
Manuel spoke about his home state saying, "You know they don't have Christmas plays in West Virginia, you know that? They cut it out. They couldn't find three wise men and a virgin."
The speeches from Victorino, Halladay and Manuel are in the following video:
Also present was comedian Joe Conklin who attends every year to entertain the guests. He does amazing impersonations of a variety of Philly athletes including Manuel, Cole Hamels and Eagles coach Andy Reid. Conklin's routine is the highlight of the banquet:
The full Photo Album from the event includes members of the Phillies, Flyers, Sixers and Eagles, plus college and high school athletes.

I had a great time. It was nice to meet your husband and get to spend some time with you. The videos look great considering our position. Hope you made it home safely. Can't wait till spring.
Sounds like an amazing time, plus you got to see three Phillies get honors.
So did Joe Conklin have any new material, or is he like one of those old Catskills comedians that run his same routine into the ground every year?
I bet he has a ball doing the Awards banquet, or he would not be such a great return guest. Wish we had something like that here in Fl.
Hope your travels home last night did not entail any white out conditions or roadside Phantic sightings.

Dottie – same here! Talk to ya soon :O)
Cliff – Yes, it was…I go every year and its never disappointing. We got out just ahead of the snow…whew!

To match this changing landscape, we need a fresh new look at the toolset we are using. Steven Yen has done that with his amazing TrimPath Junction framework. Junction is an all JavaScript framework that closely models the Ruby on Rails model-view-controller design pattern and implementation. And with the help of the Helma JavaScript web server, it runs the same code both on the client and on the server. Exactly the same code, in fact.
The framework not only handles the basics of rendering pages (using JavaScript templating), but it also handles data and code synchronization with the server, local client caching using Google Gears, model versioning, and much more. It's an amazingly complete solution for an entirely new model of web development.
To show it off, we are going to build a simple contact maintenance application. And to get started with the development, we first need to download the example code, which includes the TrimPath Junction framework, and install that somewhere locally.
Then, depending on the operating system, you can start the Helma web server using the start.bat batch file (on Windows), or the shell script on Linux or Macintosh OS X.
You may need to do some tweaking of the Helma configuration file to get it properly working on your system, depending on what web servers you may already have running. The Helma configuration file is called helma.conf and is located in the scripts directory.
Once the Helma process is up and running, we can run the contact application. On my machine, this meant going to
http://localhost:8080/engines/100/apps/contactApp. But your URL may vary depending on the settings in the helma.conf file. The above URL executes the contact application within the Helma server. So, each click I make in the contactApp sends a normal, full HTTP request to the Helma server, and the browser renders the returned HTML page as you'd expect.
Instead, if I wanted to run the contact application completely within my web browser, I would use the URL of
In either case, when I use either URL, I would see the page as shown in Figure 1, if everything is installed properly.
Figure 1. The empty contact list page
This page shows the list of contacts in the database. It's empty now because there are no contacts in the database. But there is a handy link to get us to the page on which we can create.
If you are familiar with Rails, then this is the equivalent of the index page from the scaffolding. In fact, as we will soon see, it's the Junction version of the scaffolding that we will be working with.
But let's backtrack for a second and look at the application. The contact application starts with a model. This model is a migration, as shown in Listing 1.
{ up: function() { createStandardTable('Contact', column('first_name', 'varchar(100)'), column('last_name', 'varchar(100)'), column('address', 'varchar(300)'), column('phone', 'varchar(100)') ); }, down: function() { dropTable('Contact'); } }
Just like Rails, there is a function for migrating up to this version, which creates a new table with the fields for each row. And there is a down function, which in this case just deletes the table.
Besides the variable types, which in this case are really standard, there is nothing vendor- or database-specific about the schema--which is great because this way Junction can take this schema and use it on the server side to hold it in a SQLite database, or on the client side in Google Gears' SQLite database.
With the schema in hand, it's time to create the home controller. This is the landing page for the application. But in this case the home controller only has to forward us onto the index page of the contact controller. This home controller is shown in Listing 2.
HomeController = function() {} HomeController.prototype.start = function(req, res) { res.redirectTo('contact', 'index'); }
A controller, in Junction parlance, is just another object. It responds to many different messages--in this case, the start message. And the start message redirects the client to the index method on the contact controller.
The TrimPath Junction download comes with its own autogenerated documentation that you can use to aid you in developing applications for it.
Amazingly, there is even less to the contacts controller than there was to the home controller. In fact, there is almost no code at all--just an invocation of the scaffold function, which sets up the basic create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) set of pages.
The contacts controller code is shown in Listing 3.
ContactController = function() {} scaffold(ContactController, 'Contact');
Pretty crazy, huh? Well, there is a little more. Since this is just the controller, there also has to be a model and a view to go along with it.
The model is pretty simple, too. It's defined in the contact.js file shown in Listing 4.
Contact = function() {} with (modelFor('Contact')) { validatesPresenceOf('first_name'); validatesPresenceOf('last_name'); }
In this case, Steven has ensured that the first and last names are present when the user adds or updates the contact record. Still going along the lines of Ruby on Rails, the
validatesPresenceOf function names are identical (with the exception of the capitalization) to their Ruby counterparts.
Well, now we have our controller and our model--the next thing is the view. The view comes in several pieces. The first is the list of contacts, or the index page. That's defined in the index.est file.

Contacts
 <%= linkToLocal('Create A New Contact', 'contact', 'newInstance') %>
 <% for (var i = 0; i < contacts.length; i++) { %>
<%= linkToLocal(contacts[i].last_name + ', ' + contacts[i].first_name, 'contact', 'show', contacts[i].id) %>
 <% } %>

While it certainly looks like an ERb template from Rails, it is in fact an EcmaScript Template (EST) that uses Erik Arvidsson's EcmaScript Template engine syntax. You can also use the alternative JavaScript Template (JST) syntax, if you prefer, for a syntax that looks more like Velocity or FreeMarker markup.
Looking back at the template, we can see at the top an invocation to
linkToLocal, which sets up an anchor to the page
newInstance action on the contacts controller, as well as a for loop, which loops through the contacts already in the database to display them.
Of course, since the database is empty we currently don't see them. So, let's fix that.
The first thing to do is to go back to the web browser and click on the "Create A New Contact" link to create a new contact. That takes us to the page shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2. The new instance page
This page is created from the newInstance.est template, which is used by the scaffolding in the contacts controller. The EST code for the page is shown in Listing 6.

Create A New Contact
 <%= errorMessagesFor('contact') %> <%= startFormTagLocal('contact', 'create') %> First Name: <%= textField('contact', 'first_name') %>
 Last Name: <%= textField('contact', 'last_name') %>
 Address: <%= textArea('contact', 'address') %>
 Phone: <%= textField('contact', 'phone') %>
 <%= submitButtonLocal("ok", "OK") %> <%= linkToLocal('Cancel', 'contact', 'index') %> <%= endFormTag() %>
Again I think it's remarkable how closely TrimPath Junction models the Ruby on Rails framework, especially in a case like this. Just as with Rails, the code starts by putting in an error display section at the top of the page that displays any validation errors on the model. After that, we start a form tag and add fields for each of the items. Then at the bottom, there is a submit button and a link back to the main index page, as well as the end of the form tag.
It's all very easy-to-understand code, and that makes it very easy to maintain. Now, back to the web browser again, I'm going to add some valid, albeit fake, contact information and click on the OK button.
Adding the contact to the database brings up the show page, where we see the specified contact. This is shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3. The show page showing my fake contact
This is just like the creation page, with the exception that we aren't creating a contact, we are just viewing it. The template code is shown in Listing 7.

Contact <%= contact.id %>
 First Name: <%= contact.first_name %>
 Last Name: <%= contact.last_name %>
 Address: <%= contact.address %>
 Phone: <%= contact.phone %>
 <%= linkToLocal('Edit', 'contact', 'edit', contact.id) %> or <%= linkToLocal('Remove', 'contact', 'destroy', contact.id, { confirm: true }) %>

 Back to the <%= linkToLocal('Contacts List', 'contact', 'index') %>
The last step in my walkthrough is to go back to the index page to show that the item has been accurately added to the database. Let's have a look in Figure 4.
Figure 4. The index page with the new contact
Indeed it has, and if I close the browser and re-open it to the same URL, I'll see the contact.
One thing that I did leave out was the basic template for all pages, which is also implemented in a very Rails-like way. It's called default.est and is shown in Listing 8.
  <title>Contact Manager App</title>    <%= contentForLayout %>
Just as with Rails, the content for the page is specified within whatever bounding layout you want. All you have to do is ensure that the base TrimPath Junction library is included, as it is with the script tag in the head section of the page.
This little demonstration of TrimPath Junction just scratches the surface of its power. Just as with a Rails demo, using the scaffolding only shows a portion of its potential. For an in-depth view, you can check out the Next Action demo application, which is a very powerful to-do list maintainer. That application works well both online and offline through use of Google Gears.

Nokia Corp., the world's largest maker of mobile phones, is interested in making netbooks, the ultra low-cost personal computers, according to its chief executive officer. The claim is hardly a surprise, considering the fact that Nokia signed a pact with Intel Corp., the globe's largest maker of chips for computers.
"The PC and the mobile will continue to come closer and merge. A lot of opportunity can be seen in this converged area. […] We at Nokia is actively looking at this converged market. We are looking at the netbook market to see what kind of opportunity is there," said Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, the chief executive of Nokia, said, reports The Economic Times.
According to earlier reports, in Q3 2009 Nokia plans to unveil Intel Atom-based netbook as well as Qualcomm Snapdragon-powered smartbook. Quanta will produce the netbook, whereas Compal will manufacture the smartbook for Nokia.
In February '09 Nokia said that it was actively looking forward making mobile computers. This week the company formed strategic alliance with Intel, the world's top maker of microprocessors, in a bid to start making various mobile Internet devices.
PC business is not completely new to Nokia. Back in the eighties, Nokia produced personal computers named MikroMikko, but then sold its computer business to International Computers Limited (ICL) in 1991. ICL eventually became a part of Fujitsu Siemens Computers. Nokia also used to produce PC monitors in the nineties, but also sold the business to ViewSonic in 2000.

My baby was born by c/s after 12 hours of labor not progressing due to a face presentation. Her face was all swollen when she came out. She didn't latch when we tried to breastfeed because she wouldn't open her mouth very far (probably hurt) and had a problem keeping her tongue down. After some very aggressive efforts by a LC (forcing jaw open, pressing back of head to bring baby to breast), baby learned to HATE the breast. Would not even take a shield. I never got her to breastfeed, and I've tried everything I could (skin to skin, rebirthing in the tub, co-sleeping topless, babywearing, infant massage, you name it) but she would still scream and turn away from the breast.
She is now two months old (11 weeks) and I've been exclusively pumping and feeding with bottles. I pump 60-65 oz. of breast milk per day. I have continued to offer the breast several times a day, but no luck. Recently I tried the shield again and she took it, nursing for about 5 minutes. I was so excited! I've been offering the shield before and during feedings with the bottle, trying to gradually increase time feeding from the shield. Often she cries and turns away, but more and more she will feed from the shield. So we are making progress. However I fear that we will never be able to exclusively go to the shield and not pump/use bottles because I don't think she is getting enough through the shield. If she nurses for 20 minutes with the shield, she will still take 4 oz from a bottle afterwards. And if I pump right after she nurses, I can still pump 3-4 oz out of the breast she just nursed from - and it looks like foremilk comes out first, so I know she never got any hindmilk out. I'm estimating that in 20 minutes, she only got 1-2 oz of foremilk. Is there a trick to using the shield so that I can exclusively breastfeed with it? I'm trying to decrease my supply by not pumping till empty. I pump every 5 hours and stop at about 10oz. so I'm reducing my supply to 50 oz. per day.
In 20 minutes, I can pump out a breast, so you would think she would be getting full if she feeds that long. I feel multiple let downs when she feeds as well as a "pins and needles" feeling down my thigh and up my chest, neck and face on the side she is nursing on.
If I can get her adequately fed using a shield, then the next step would be to try to wean her off the shield and onto naked nipple.
Can anyone tell me why it's not working?
Thank you!

Im a new yorker, I dont want Mark Jackson as Coach.
As a New Yorker born and bred, the more I think about it, the more I feel Mark Jackson is the right fit to coach the Knicks.
He's a winner from New York City: St. John's NCAA championship. NBA Finals. He bleeds NYC where Isiah bled Detroit...
Jackson's head has been in the game since his playing career ended, broadcasting with other coaches like Van Gundy, Mike Fratello, and other intelligent basketball minds, seeing the best in the game and how they win. MANY coaches have gone from broadcasting to coaching and back again. Jackson also had the opportunity to broadcast with Marv Albert, one of the greatest ever as far as communication goes. It's this intelligent communication that translates to coaching, in order to pass on knowledge. And he's a point guard mentality, like many great coaches before him.
Mark Jackson is young and hungry and a NEW YORKER! He is what we need to lead a TEAM! Fresh blood for a fresh NY Knick team. Mark Jackson will inspire Starbury to be the best he can be, and I believe Walsh will give them both a chance to make it happen before they trade him.
Personally, I can't stand Kenny Smith, he's on a par with Charles Barkley as far as smarts, witticisms and limited vocabulary. He is LAME! and he bleeds Houston...
Let's keep it in New York, don't let Mark Jackson get away again!
Clyde for defensive coach
Ewing for big man coach
Im a new yorker, I dont want Mark Jackson as Coach.
I like jackson, but he's is unexperienced, which means I have no means to judge him by. He reminds me of Isiah, in the sense he's likable right now. People like Mark Jackson, people liked Isiah.
Avery johnson, I'm not a fan of, but his firey attitude could really be what this team needs and he has experience and has been successful.
Kenny smith, also no experience, and I say if your gonna go no experience go Jackson.
As far as the team, I don't care who goes, but it is clear people must go, changes must be made. I'll have faith as long as I see change.
Rebuilding is a long road, one Isiah originally said he the knicks didn't need to do. Later said the knicks were rebuilding, but they weren't. Years later we still haven't started rebuilding. Time to start now. Knicks fire sale, whoever will take anyplayer as long as we are taking on small contracts and expiring contracts and getting ride of the large ones. No big signings. I'd even say some releases, like Jerome James, Malik rose, If no one will take them.
Let's...Go...Lottery! Let's...Go...Lottery!!! Say it with me Knicks fans!
Honestly all these people hyping Mark Jackson up Im like wtf? People is like how great a player he was and **** and Im like when? Mark Jackson was never anything special and he has no expierience which is why I don't see why people want him so bad. Again if Lenny Wilkens, Larry Brown, and Isiah Thomas couldn't get these group of players to turn it around what the hell has people believeing Mark Jackson can do it?
Before counting any coach out do your homework on him first.
Every coach was inexperience when they first started coaching.
All of the best coaches for this Knick Team has been taken two and three seasons ago.
The Knicks had the chance to grab Byron Scott, Rick Adelman, or give Herb Williams a year or two.
The Knicks should have went after Phil Jackson rather than Larry Brown confusion, especially after his coaching of the USA team.
Stan Van Gundy is 100 times a better coach than his brother JVG.
Alot of these so-call experience NBA coaches you guys keep mentioning for this Knick job got a free pass and should be coaching in college and than the D-League before the NBA again.
Pat Riley did a great job for us Knicks because he started his coaching career with Center Kareem Jabbar, so his experience led him on to teach Ewing more fundamentals of the game. The same way with Mourning and Shaq. Pat Riley turned out to be one the best bigmen coaches in the NBA. He will not refuse a trade for Eddy Curry.
At this point, whomever the Knicks hire as their G.M. and Coach should have a huge amount of knowledge about whats been going on in this Knick Franchise than what Walsh has been showing.
Mark Jackson gets a plus + there.
The Knicks new head coach must know more than just details about this season performance from each of the 15 players on the Knick roster, before being hired.
Every coach start off their seasons with new expectations from their players.
To not have any knowledge of these Knick players on the court and off the court activities in New York, untill the two weeks of training camp will be to late to start singling out certain players.
Mark Jackson gets a plus + there too.
The Knicks new G.M. must have a great knowledge of this "Knick Team" coaching-staff and players performance.
Plus he must learn how to get as much knowledge as he can before taking on future players and coaching-staff.
Kenny Smith fits this bill of health.
man look every new yorker want patrick ewing to be our coach and have mar jackason,clyde as assitents so what i have to everyone wants patrick no jackson
For any one that believes Mark Jackson can fix the Knicks with zero coaching experience solely because he was a good point guard, I have two words for you, Isiah Thomas.
We've debated about this in another forum and frankly I think it's sad how the media clearly influences opinions of fans. Mark Jackson shouldn't even be mentioned as a coaching candidate to fix one of the worse teams the NBA has seen in years. This aint amateur hour. Avery I can understand. He was coach of the year two seasons ago and although he was a young coach, he worked his way up as an 'assistant' first. Jackson hasn't done that. You guys want to throw him right into the fire. Jackson is a mystery. We don't know what kind of coach he will be because he's never coached before. Now Paul Silas is interested and he should get a serious look. Hopefully Walsh wont hire any one until after the playoffs. At that time, presuming the Celtics go deep into the playoffs, he'll get a change to interview Tom Thibodeau. For those of you that have done your home work I challenge you to find a better coach available then Tom! Let's make a logical argument and not Jackson was a great pg bull****. Let's talk experience, leadership, defense and record.
Mark Jackson,Van Gundy,Fratello...the most important is a man better than Isiah and for me everyone is better than Isiah,he has kill NY since he is in the big apple,I loved the player but I hate the coach.
Two Questions?
How many more Marc Jackson threads are we going to have?
And didn't people sing the same tune about Isiah? "Anyone is better then Scott Layden... Isiah will fix his mess ups.. etc etc"
Let's...Go...Lottery! Let's...Go...Lottery!!! Say it with me Knicks fans!

Businesses wishing to remove potentially unsafe consumer products quickly from the marketplace, are encouraged to participate in CPSC's award-winning Fast-Track recall program. The Fast-Track recall program helps consumers by removing potentially hazardous products from the marketplace as quickly and efficiently as possible and rewards businesses that act quickly. To participate in this program, a business must be prepared to implement a corrective action plan – including a consumer-level recall (refund, repair, or replacement) – within 20 working days of submitting an initial report to CPSC. In addition, the firm must immediately stop sale and distribution of the product.
Businesses that successfully complete the Fast-Track program benefit in the following ways:
Businesses that report potential product defects under Section 15(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Act can choose to initiate a Fast-Track recall during the initial filing process. Businesses should report products to CPSC using the online submission form (click here for instructions on filing online). Businesses can also email their report to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What should my business expect when we report a product and check off the "Fast-Track" participation box?
As with all mandatory reporting, the Fast-Track program requires a full report from the firm, as described in 16 C.F.R. § 1115.13(d), including an acceptable Corrective Action Plan (CAP) that is ready to be implemented within 20 working days and includes:
If you do not have all of this information ready at the time of your report, include as much information as you do have, and begin to gather the remaining information to provide to CPSC's Office of Compliance when you are contacted. You should be contacted within 1 day, seeking the missing information and other information that CPSC staff deems relevant, which may include additional technical information. If you are not contacted within 2 days, e-mail email@example.com to confirm that we received your report.
Resources to assist you are available at: www.cpsc.gov/recallguidance.
How do I document that I have submitted my report to CPSC?
When you have finished submitting your report at: www.SaferProducts.gov, you should receive an acknowledgment page with a date and time stamp. Please print the acknowledgment for your records. You may also wish to print the pages preceding the acknowledgment as you submit your information. If you do not receive this confirmation, please e-mail email@example.com, and we can provide you with a copy of your report.
How will I know whether I have been accepted into the Fast-Track Program?
You will receive a letter from your point of contact in CPSC's Office of Compliance who will confirm your participation. Participants who clearly identify a potential defect/hazard and can work quickly to recall a product have the best chance of being accepted in the Fast-Track Program.
Once I am accepted into the Fast-Track Program, what should I expect?
Your point of contact will guide you through the recall process and will request all necessary information. The first step will be for your Compliance contact to reach out to you with guidance on what is needed to complete the process. Next, you will need to provide product samples (if feasible), a Full Report, testing data for repair or replacement remedies, information on the number of incidents and injuries associated with the product, and a proposed Corrective Action Plan. Your Compliance point of contact will then notify you if your CAP has been accepted or if changes are necessary. Lastly, you will schedule posting of a press release or recall alert.
Your point of contact in Compliance will expect your company to move quickly to provide full and accurate information that is responsive to CPSC's requests.
If I am not accepted into the Fast-Track Program, what should I expect?
If you are not accepted into the program, you will be contacted by the Team Lead for Fast-Track with information about how to proceed. When staff rejects applicants, most often it is because the requesting firm did not initially report under the Fast-Track Program, but requested inclusion months later during the investigation process. We do not accept Fast-Track Program participants once staff has begun a defect investigation. In addition, products that may violate mandatory standards administered by the CPSC are not handled through the Fast Track Program.
Can a business be removed from the Fast-Track Program?
On occasion, businesses do leave the Fast-Track program. Some businesses request to be removed from the program because they can no longer initiate a timely recall. In other cases, the business is removed from the Fast-Track Program at the discretion of staff, because the firm has failed to meet other program requirements of the program. Staff warns businesses before removal from the Fast-Track Program and gives businesses every reasonable opportunity to participate in the program.
Why doesn't every company participate in the Fast-Track Program?
That's a great question. We think that the program greatly benefits both consumers and businesses by removing potentially hazardous products from the marketplace quickly and efficiently and minimizing uncertainty and risk for participating businesses.
However, some companies choose not to participate in the Fast-Track Program because their products may present complex technical issues that require more time to resolve; they may not have made the decision to cooperate voluntarily with the CPSC on a potential corrective action; or they may not be able to move quickly enough to meet CPSC deadlines for participants.
CPSC is committed to accommodating all participants seeking to participate in good faith in the Fast-Track Program.
Businesses are required to report products they manufacture, distribute, import, or sell that are potentially defective or hazardous or that do not comply with federal safety requirements.
Report a Product (For Businesses Only)

Alison Rhodes, "The
Safety Mom"
National Child Safety Expert, Alison Rhodes, "The Safety Mom," is one of the country's
leading child safety authorities, providing tips and advice to parents on a broad
range of issues facing all children - newborns to teens. Read
Beyond the days of breastfeeding and formulas are the fun days of introducing your child to the world of flavors in different types of foods. Long before your child is ready to enjoy your regular dinner fare, however, they become susceptible to foodborne illnesses caused by bacteria.
Food poisoning and foodborne illnesses have been around since the beginning of time, but doctors do not always recognize the symptoms of illnesses for what they are. The most common mistake is that they feel the patient has the stomach flu. The American Medical Association (AMA) has launched a program to educate their doctors in recognizing the signs of foodborne illnesses and how to treat them, instead of sending the patient home, as in the past.
Most foodborne illnesses are caused by the E. coli bacteria. Many of the doctors who graduated from medical school years ago had never heard of many of the different types of E. coli, and are unfamiliar with their symptoms. Educating the doctors to recognize and report the instances of foodborne illnesses is what the AMA program is about.
E. coli and most other bacteria that cause foodborne illnesses live harmlessly in our intestines and are beneficial in helping our bodies produce essential compounds like K- and B-complex vitamins. One particular E. coli bacteria is particularly dangerous to young children and the elderly, and is known to cause complications such as bloody diarrhea and kidney failure. It is responsible for approximately 5000 deaths and 300,000 individuals being hospitalized every year.
It isn't just the food we eat that causes illness from this bacteria. There have been an increasing number of reports of outbreaks caused by everything from contaminated drinking water to visiting a petting zoo.
What can you do to protect your family? Learn how to keep the bacteria away from the foods you eat and recognize the signs that indicate medical help is needed.
Wash all fruits and vegetables, even the skins of watermelons and cantaloupes.
Cook meats thoroughly before eating. Use a meat thermometer and cook chicken to 170 degrees Fahrenheit and beef and pork to 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
Sorry rare meat lovers, juicy pink centers can be dangerous - no pink usually means no bacteria.
Do not drink milk or fruit juices that are not pasteurized.

Bargnani never had the success Gallinari did in Europe.
Gallinari is 6"10 and still growing.
Bargnani can score in the NBA, he just can't play center.
Is Hedo fast?
Telfair is one of the fastest players in the NBA, who do you think is better at getting to the FT line, Telfair or Turk? Exactly, stfu.
Turk has ability to change speeds, has incredible handle for his size and has a great feel for the game. Gallinari isn't slow at all, and you don't expect anyone at 6"10 to be "fast", even as retarded as you are, it isn't common sense.
Adam Morrison is garbage and never was the prospect Danilo was.
Danilo is one of the best slashers in this draft.
You need to stop bitching.
You're not a Knick fan, just some fat Jamaican dude in Canada with a lot of negativity and invalidity on everything.
You don't contribute **** to this **** and really you could win a vote as the dumbest and most ignorant poster on this site. No one appreciates your garbage, so next re read your **** so we don't have to correct you.

Movies get us to believe all sorts of malarkey. We'll suspend reality to a veil-thin spread and accept time travel, space travel, aliens, monsters, dodging bullets, impossible-to-build machines and on and on.
After all, it's fun to escape and go for a ride, isn't it?
Perhaps more revealing, though, is our tendency to buy into the idea that the "good guys" are always the good guys. It's easy as pie to fall victim to this trap, with the whole movie centered around that belief.
But clearer heads prevail, and now we can review five movies where the good guys aren't so good, after all. In fact, as we'll see, they are downright bad.
Up first: But they make such a nice couple ...
No. 5: "Entrapment" (1999)
There are a lot of examples of caper and heist films that build up the affections for the thief. "Entrapment" is a solid example of that.
Sean Connery plays a legendary art thief and Catherine Zeta-Jones is the insurance employee out to question him. However, she ends up joining in the fun and goes on a couple heists herself.
So we get this switcheroo action, some sexual tension, a little suspense and, of course, the brain-teaser methods they plan to pull off their heists.
There's a lot of intrigue here and, watching all this drama from the viewpoint of Connery and Zeta-Jones, we almost forget that we're watching a couple of thieves. (And, oh yeah, honest people are going to lose out big time because of their game.)
When it comes to our next selection, good is a relative term ...
No. 4: "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" (1966)
The wool being pulled over our eyes in this legendary spaghetti Western is pretty transparent.
Heck, right there in the title we are told to believe that Clint Eastwood's character is the one with, well, character. But no matter the title, the audience has no problem falling for Clint anyway. After all, as "The Man With No Name," he carries himself so well as he coolly makes his way through life, going about his business.
And his business?
Oh, you know, scamming law enforcement officers out of their reward money and killing other bounty hunters. But hey, maybe when he makes off with a small fortune at the end of the movie, he decides to change his ways -- building a shelter for runaway youth, perhaps?
Not likely; but no matter, it's sort of ingrained in the American male psyche that this idea of a lonesome, cool cowboy is an endearing one.
Next, we ask the question, "Is there really honor among thieves?"
No. 3: "The Italian Job" (2003)
This film tries pretty hard to glorify these likeable heisters, offering a gem of a scene where every partner-in-crime is introduced with a short biography.
The explosives guy is shown in an "aw shucks" fashion when, as a youngster, he makes a toilet explode. (Oh, look, he's all wet. Let's just forget about his choice to enter a life of theft.)
The leader of the gang is shown as a boy stealing a wallet from another classmate. Oh, but it's OK. In fact, it's honorable, because it happens to be from a bully picking on a kid that very moment. How convenient.

IOT established a Project Review Policy for the requirements governing the review of IT development projects. The goal of the project review is to identify and mitigate problems with large IT projects as early in the project as possible to minimize their impact. This policy requires independent verification and validation for large IT development projects.
All projects with $10,000,000 or more in IT development services or that are longer than twelve (12) months in duration must have an IV&V conducted by IOT or an independent 3rd party. This will include a review of the documented detailed business requirements that will be used in the bid for a new application or an upgrade of an existing application. This review will ensure the accuracy of the bid to mitigate flawed business requirements in the proposal bid request resulting in costly amendments after engagement begins. The Project also will be required to engage with IOT or a separate 3rd party vendor to employ metrics with weekly updates through project completion in order to provide visibility to all parties on project status and issues. The IV&V may also include:
To facilitate adherence to the Project Review Policy, IOT and IDOA issued RFP 11-59 for IV&V Services. As a result of this RFP, contracts were awarded to several contractors to provide quality IV&V services. The contractors and their rates are at IV&V Rates by Vendor.
These contracts are available to state agencies and other governmental bodies in Indiana.

Top 10 News: Google Top India Searches of 2012
Google Zeitgeist for India 2012 is out and we have the top news making stories.Guess which money related search took the top spot?
1. Rajesh Khanna Death
He was Bollywood's first superstar and the star of over 160 films including heart warming fares such as Kati Patang, Aaradhana, Anand and Amar Prem. His crazy fan following and box office drawing power made him one of India's premier actors. It was but natural that Kaka's prolonged illness and demise made headlines all over in July and August. From updates on his health to the strange family drama, involving his family and live-in-partner,that ensued after his death, Kaka was top news in people's minds.
2. Pranab Mukharjee President
No, that's not a typo. The public actually searched for Mr. Mukharjee. Hopefully his ascendancy (or demotion?, given the actual powers of the Indian President) to the position of the President of the Indian Republic would make people aware of the correct spelling of his surname. From the nomination to the oath taking ceremony, the Presidential perks, little known facts about him, people just couldn't get enough of Pranab Da.
3. Earthquake In Chennai
Following the massive earthquake in Indonesia, strong tremors were felt in several places in Tamil Nadu including Chennai in April. The damage done by the 2004 Tsunami must have been on the mind of the people, who searched for all the warnings and precautionary measures to be taken.
4. Kingfisher Airlines
Kingfisher Airlines' financial losses surely kept it in news. But more than finding out what Vijay Mallya was doing when his airlines was nose diving(pardon the pun) or the poor plight of the employees, we suspect most of the people were just interested in knowing which flight of theirs was cancelled and which other carrier could they book.
5. Abhishek Manu Singhvi
The Congress spokesperson became a victim of 'Love, Sex and Dhoka' when a sex tape of Abhishek Singhvi with a senior female lawyer started doing the rounds of social networking sites. Sanghvi denied, then declared it his personal matter while getting a court to restrain its publication and release. He quit his position as the spokesperson but , as it always happens in politics, he was reinstated once the controversy died down.
6. Aseem Trivedi Cartoons
His cartoons mocking the corrupt Indian politicians led to ban on his website and subsequent arrest in the guise of hurting national sentiments. This ignited the debate on freedom of speech in India and the subsequent public furore saw him released within a few days of the arrest. His bravery got him a clutch of social awards and a spot in the Big Boss house.
7. Anna Hazare
While he may have made headlines in 2011 for his Lokpal Bill movement and his hunger strikes, 2012 saw Anna Hazare's break up with Arvind Kejriwal generate massive public interest.
8. Hurricane Sandy
The media interest for the natural calamity was matched only by the public's hunger to find out all about Sandy. The information about the destruction, the preparedness of US authorities and the stunning images in the wake of the hurricane (which later got downgraded to a storm) got people googling.
9. Vilasrao Deshmukh Death
The prolonged illness of the Maharashtra politician and ex-CM was followed by the media and his demise , along with the tributes that poured in and the state funeral thereafter generated a lot of interest.
10. Sensex
It's all about money honey. The ups and down of the stock market clearly had people massively interested. Which stocks were selling like hot cakes and which were like cold fish, people turned to Google to find out.

There's not much new news about the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class vehicles. That may be because the current model is almost eight years old or perhaps because it's slowly and quietly being phased out.
The SL-Class received a facelift back in 2008 but has fallen off the radar for many since then and fuel economy could be a reason. To combat this Mercedes is discontinuing its twelve-cylinder versions of the SL. The SL600 was the first to go and now the SL65 AMG is getting the chop as well. But it remains unclear if the fixed-roof SL65 AMG Black Series will continue on. Continue reading "Mercedes-Benz phasing out V12-powered roadsters" »
