Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 6/2/2013 (1603 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
There was little evidence on Wednesday night of the flu that kept Curtis Honey and Jens Meilleur out of the Brandon Wheat Kings' practice a day earlier.
Both played starring roles — Honey with 36 saves and Meilleur with two goals — as the Wheat Kings downed the Lethbridge Hurricanes 4-1 at Westman Place to start their seven-game Western Hockey League homestand with two straight victories.
"It's nice to win two in a row again and I think we've got to build from it and hopefully start a winning streak here," Honey said.
Meilleur combined with linemates Taylor Cooper (one goal, two assists) and Tim McGauley (three assists) on an eight-point night. John Quenneville also scored as the Wheat Kings (20-31-2-2) moved into a tie for 11th place in the Eastern Conference with the Regina Pats, nine points behind the Medicine Hat Tigers, who hold the final playoff spot. Jayce Hawryluk added two assists to stretch his point-scoring streak to four games.
"We had different guys at different times kind of come up big for us," Wheat Kings head coach Dwayne Gylywoychuk said. "I thought Curtis Honey held his own and really closed the door for us when we weren't as good as we wanted to be."
Axel Blomqvist scored for the sixth-place Hurricanes (25-24-1-7), while former Wheat King goaltender Ty Rimmer made 29 saves in the Lethbridge net.
The Wheat Kings managed to sneak one past Rimmer — fresh off a 48-save, 5-2 win in Regina on Tuesday — midway through the first period. Meilleur scored on a wraparound, with the puck bouncing off Rimmer's pad and into the net.
The Hurricanes got that back with only 13.2 seconds left in a period just after a Brandon penalty expired as Blomqvist parked beside the Wheat Kings' net and redirected the puck past Honey.
The Hurricanes carried the play during much of the second period, but it was the Wheat Kings who came out of the frame with the lead, thanks to a Quenneville shot from the slot.
"It was a big momentum swing for us," Gylywoychuk said. "It enabled us to kind of get our head above water and get back on our toes and realize that there's a game here and there's two points out here and we haven't been good, but we've got to find a way.
"There's been games here where we've been tied at the halfway mark or we've been in the game and we haven't realized the opportunity that we have and tonight we did and we found a way."
Cooper gave the Wheat Kings some breathing room, finding the top corner behind Rimmer on a power play, before Meilleur wrapped up the scoring on a scramble in front of the Lethbridge net for his first multi-goal game since Sept. 26.
"(Assistant coach Darren Ritchie) always tells me to go to the net; I'm not going to be scoring any highlight-reel goals anytime soon," Meilleur said. "I just try and go to the net and hopefully they go in for me."
The Wheat Kings' next challenge is a big one. On Friday (7:30 p.m., Westman Place) they host the conference-leading Edmonton Oil Kings, who carry a nine-game winning streak into a meeting with the Pats tonight.
Honey said the key for the Wheat Kings in Friday's game is to continue to improve defensively.
"Just like any winning team, it starts in the 'D' zone," he said. "You play good defence and you're going to play good offence."
ONE-TIMERS: Attendance was 2,901, the Wheat Kings' first crowd under 3,000 this season … Brandon played one skater under the limit, scratching D Tyler Yaworski (first game of his six-game suspension), G Corbin Boes (knee), LW/RW Richard Nejezchleb (hand), C Tyrel Seaman (concussion) and C Chad Robinson (ill) … Lethbridge scratches included D Daniel Johnston (upper body) and LW Graham Hood (upper body) … Ex-Brandon C Brenden Walker, now with Saskatoon, played his 250th WHL game on Wednesday … NHL great Marcel Dionne will be the guest speaker at the CKLQ Wheat Kings Sportsman's Dinner tonight.

Factory warranty about to end, should I take get it inspected just in case?
I have purchased my 328i xdrive at 45k miles 3 months ago and I'm really loving this car (it's been my dream car since I was a teenager)
Fortunately, when I purchased the car, the dealer did an inspection and CPO'ed the vehicle, including the oil change.
Even though my car will be covered with CPO, I know factory warranty is a lot more comprehensive than CPO warranty. So here I am with my 328 nearing the end of factory warranty, I'm debating whether I should take it to the indy mechanics and have it inspected.
If the indy mehcnic (that is knowledgable about BMWs) finds some parts that need replacing, I'll be able to go to the dealership and have it replaced - including some parts that may not be included under the CPO.
But since this car has just been inspected for CPO (it only took them 1 day so I don't know if this was thorough inspection), I'm not sure if taking it to the mechanics is worth the effort.
Can I hear some advice from experiend owners of E90 ?
Thanks in advance!
It wouldn't hurt if the inspection fee is reasonable.CPO have limited coverage if you can get them replace prior to warranty ended that would be great.
A thorough inspection from time to time always a good move. In your case, timely, too.

According to Richard Deitsch of Sports Illustrated, Lewis is close to signing a multi-year contract with ESPN. He would have a "significant" role on Monday Night Countdown.
Lewis confirmed on Wednesday that he will retire after the playoffs. The 17-year veteran has not played since injuring his triceps in Week Seven, but could play in Sunday's wild-card game against the Colts.
Per the report, one of Lewis' requirements when meeting with networks was flexibility in his schedule so he could attend his son's football games. Lewis' son, Ray Lewis III, will be a freshman at the University of Miami next year.

Microformats and Semantic Markup
Download this episode
Microformats are simple HTML design patterns for adding semantics to your web content. With additional semantic meaning, your content becomes more findable, extensible, standards-compliant and usable. And when built on a solid foundation of Plain Old Semantic Markup (POSH), your content also becomes more accessible. Emily Lewis, author of Microformats Made Simple, will discuss the benefits of microformats, as well as tools and resources to help you start publishing right away. But the focus will be on the practical application of microformats using POSH: link-based microformats, XFN, hCard and hCalendar. Emily will also discuss what HTML5 means for microformats, particularly microdata and the new semantic elements.

Soccer helps Afghan girls reclaim some freedom
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Hope, confidence and a bit of freedom to have fun are the themes of an uplifting new documentary film from Afghanistan by an Iranian filmmaker.
Bahareh Hosseini's "Afghan Girls Can Kick" follows Afghanistan's first national women's soccer team as they prepare for their first matches abroad in Pakistan and talk about how their passion for the game is helping them move on from the days when their rights and freedoms were heavily restricted.
The movie shows how the team and the beautiful game has provided an outlet for girls previously deprived of sports and education under the hardline Islamist rule of the Taliban.
"We want to show the whole world the ability of an Afghan woman, the things they can do," team captain Shamila Kohestani said during an interview in the film, which is being shown at the International Documentary Festival in Amsterdam (IDFA).
The Taliban banned women from working or leaving the home without a male relative when they were in power from 1996 until 2001. Girls could not play outdoors and sport was out of the question.
"The girls are reclaiming their physical freedom through sport," said 30-year-old Hosseini.
"I was fed up of stories about poor Afghan women as victims. I looked for the women who were pushing the boundaries in this male-dominated society."
But the film shows how some of the deeply conservative society's traditions still linger, with the girls told to fetch their headscarves before they start playing in televised matches, for example.
Hosseini also said she saw girls dropping out of the team because they were at an age when they were expected to marry, or because they needed to work to support typically large families. Training was also postponed because of money worries. Continued...

frog: Google Health Fails To Bring Meaning To Data
The creative team of frog design collaborated in this post to look critically at the future of health services and compile a list of how industry experts can learn from the falls of Google Health.
When Google announced Friday that it was pulling the plug on Google Health, we received dozens of calls asking, "If Google can't make it in health, who can?" But we actually think we should be looking at Google's failure as a strong sign of where the electronic medical record (EMR) and personal health record (PHR) space is headed. To use the Gartner Hype Cycle reference we are in the "Trough of Disillusionment," where technology fails to meet expectations and is abandoned. But, some businesses will persist and continue through the "Slope of Enlightenment" and experiment to understand the true benefits and practical application of the technology for the consumer. We also think Google's failure is a confirmation that consumers are finally expecting healthcare products and services to rise to the same level as other industries. frog finds this in our healthcare research all the time; patients and physicians now expect their PHR/EMR to provide all the intuitive functionality and connectivity as their smart phones and tablets. If they don't, they won't adopt these technologies.
Google Health failed on two primary dimensions: failure to create a connected and meaningful solution.
Lack of Connectivity
In healthcare, it's all about the eco-system. To create a monolithic product, as Google did, instead of building a platform for connectivity, can severely limit the value of the system. In order to have a holistic perspective on a patient's health, connection between the physician, hospital, payor and pharmacist is essential. With Google Health, even the most basic connection between the patient and physician was not enabled since the patient PHR was not integrated with the physician EMR. It's a fundamental tenet that productive dialogue occurs in situations of information symmetry, meaning that the dialogue must be based on shared knowledge. With Google Health this was an extremely narrow platform – the patient and the physician continued to have access to almost mutually exclusive bodies of knowledge. Broadening the platform is key to a more meaningful patient-physician dialogue.
Sharing between the patient and physician creates symmetry of data-access that builds reciprocal trust and enables efficient and evidence-based interactions. Sharing also expands to friends and family, causing the circle of care around the patient to be empowering and engaging to support them. Patient-to-patient relationships are also crucial as they support learning, and drive motivation and engagement. Any data presentation platform today that ignores the necessity for sharing and dialog is missing out on the biggest value item.
From a business model perspective, adoption by industry players is also essential to achieve scale. In the case of Google's venture, there needed to be equal focus on the B2B and B2C elements of the play. Institutional buy-in from large employers, pharmacy chains, insurers and providers is fundamental. This is basic network theory: the value of a connected system is a power function of the number of connected nodes. Depending on singular sign ups to ensure critical mass would have taken forever, especially without a strong social component to propagate virally.
Just as the social portion of the experience was not considered, mobility wasn't integrated either. frog's VP of Healthcare Innovation Aimee Jungman was a cancer patient herself recently, and wasn't accessing her PHR when she was at home at night behind her computer. She needed to access it when she went from physician to chemo to lab. She also needed to include her most recent lab results so that when she and her physician determined her readiness for chemo, the most recent lab results where available. Google Health suffered from the lack of basic mobility, as well as the fact that devices and systems that generate data were not directly connected to an individual's PHR.
Lack of Meaning
But we need to go beyond the lack of connectivity as a reason for Google Health's failure. It also did not deliver more meaning to the consumer, whether that is the patient or the physician.
The Google Health design was elegant and the solution intuitive, but Google seemed to have forgotten that for the patient healthcare is a narrative, not a bunch of lab results, CAT-scans and tests. When Aimee was diagnosed with cancer, she knew having a high CA-125 (cancer blood marker) was bad, but she had no idea what that meant in terms of her life. Was she going to be able to have children? Was she going to be able to continue working? Was she going to survive? Interestingly enough, she never knew the answers to these questions, but she knew her CA-125 immediately and was tracked religiously against it. She used the PHR to record her scans and tests, but she told the story of her cancer through email and community sites and shared her progress based on the impact to her life goals.
Healthcare is a system that produces more data than almost any other sector, but uses it with less effect than any of them. Connectivity alone with its promise of making data available to anyone in the system is not enough if it's more of the same, unusable and unactionable information. So what does it mean to create meaning in the system and develop experiences that shape and build empowered, engaged and informed consumers?
frog has developed a list of core tenets that we believe should be integral to any healthcare platform:
• Be There – Ubiquitous, Shared, Contextual
• Be Compelling – Action-Oriented, Emotionally Driven
• Be Real – Familiar, Personal, Resonant and Culturally Relevant
• Be Transparent – Guiding, Directional and Clarifying, Demystifying
mHealth2= Mobility with Meaning
Let's re-imagine what an ideal PHR/EMR experience could be that combines connectivity and meaning for the consumer, be it patient or physician.
Be There: Establishing point of care solutions was how hospitals tried to foster physician adoption of the EMR. This set-up an unempathetic situation, as the patient fearfully described their health issues to a doctor sitting behind a screen. Ironically, what seems to have gotten lost with all the focus only on connection is that healthcare is about people guiding people, and should be a human-centered industry. We need to leverage connectivity to better support this idea, rather than distract from it.
For physicians, imagine an EMR solution that connects to the mobile smart phone and tablet devices they use already and integrates seamlessly into their workflow. The information is available anytime/anywhere so the physician can access the information when they are at home or in the car, instead of when they are with the patient on site. They can monitor the patient continuously and not just during the visit, so the patient always feels taken care of. Smart and evolving algorithms can be used to flag and prioritize patients that need attention, so that this volume of data supports physicians to allocate their time more effectively, rather than being an additional burden. For the patient, the information can be visualized in a way that they can understand and is easily sharable to support collaborative decision-making between patient-physician.

I have one plug that stopped working. I opened the box and everything was connected and this is the first plug on the line.
all connections as far as I can tell are fine and inside the the breaker box all connections are hot. All plugs down the circuit
work and this makes no sense at all to me. Can anyone tell me what to check next as I am out of thoughts on this. The house is 10 years old. Thanks for any thoughts you can give me.

Hello, accessibility experts. We were recently contacted by Jeanne Spellman, one of the editors of the w3c ATAG guidelines. The Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) 2.0 Working Draft was published on April 26. The update is almost finished and they will be taking comments until May 24, 2011.
They also have a companion document, Implementing ATAG 2.0 to define how authoring tools can help developers produce accessible web content that conforms to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. It also defines how to make authoring tools accessible so that people with disabilities can use them.
It would be great if we could try to meet the new guidelines with 3.2 as much as we can.

Integrated Photonic Devices
The Integrated Photonic Devices Group, led by Professor James Wilkinson, was established in early 1990 to meet the demand for optical device functions of increasing complexity and parallelism.
Planar photonic devices are exploited in applications as diverse as telecommunications, tuneable and short-pulse miniature laser light sources, diagnostics in medicine, the environment and food processing, and early-warning sensors for biological agents. We exploit surface science, waveguide engineering, laser physics and microstructure technology to realise robust mass-producible integrated optical circuits, to further the monolithic integration of diverse devices, and to develop novel materials processing for optoelectronic devices.
The group is currently active in the fields of microsphere resonator coupled planar lightwave circuits, optical sorting of micro- nano- and bio-particles, sapphire waveguide optics, optical biosensors, optofluidic integration for bioanalysis, waveguide lasers and amplifiers, nonlinear optics, and microstructured dielectric films and materials.
Key research breakthroughs:

Impact of research:
Professor James Wilkinson was a founder of Mesophotonics Ltd, a photonic crystal waveguide company, based upon photonic crystal technology in the School of Electronics and Computer Science combined with waveguide, laser and biosensor expertise from the ORC. Mesophotonics commercialised supercontinuum chips in tantalum pentoxide and SERS biosensors on microstructured surfaces.
The group aims to realise devices which can be mass-produced at low cost as the foundation of new industries meeting the needs of society for ubiquitous access to information at home, rapid detection of chemicals and biochemicals for security, food safety, pollution monitoring, disease screening and personalised medicine, and to advance basic scientific understanding for future technologies.
Research Facilities:
The group runs the Integrated Photonics cleanroom facility for optical, electronic and microfluidic device fabrication. Processes include photolithography, dip-pen nanolithography, thin-film deposition by sputtering, ion-beam deposition and evaporation, reactive ion and wet etching, ion-exchange and diffusion to 2300oC, surface metrology and scanning electron microscopy.
The groups three optical characterisation labs include tunable titanium sapphire and diode lasers, UV laser, waveguide characterisation apparatus, optical spectrum analysers, high-sensitivity electrical impedance spectroscopy, and flow-injection analysis for biosensors.
Current research projects:
Microstructured glass & crystal photonic materials and devices ORC Core.
There is increasing interest and activity in compact low-cost photonic circuits for mass-market applications such as to fibre-to-the-home (FTTH). Planar processing technology has enabled extraordinary complexity at low cost for electronic systems and has the potential to provide a revolution in mass-manufacture for all-optical systems. For this dream to be realised, materials and fabrication processes suitable for advanced photonic applications must be devised.
A key component for any optical system is a source of short pulses to act as a data signal source, clock, or frequency comb generator, and in this project we propose to realise a compact, robust, mass-producible modelocked source on a chip and demonstrate an integrated data-sampling function. Among other materials systems we are studying tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) as an attractive CMOS-compatible waveguide material and have demonstrated several important properties and functions for high-density photonic circuits including:
- third-order nonlinearity 33 times that of silica at a wavelength of 1.5μm (n2 ≈ 7.2 ×10-19 m2W-1)
- high refractive index (n≈2.1) yielding tight bends and high effective nonlinearity due to small spotsize
- supercontinuum generation in rib waveguides
- band-stop filtering using a photonic crystal waveguide
- suitability as a host for rare-earth ions, having exhibited gain of 2.9dB/cm and lasing at 1.5μm
- photosensitivity, allowing volume gratings with Δn ≈ 2×10-3 to be written by UV irradiation
- local diffusion of rare-earth ions into Ta2O5 films for localised gain

Optical functions and lab-on-a-chip for microparticles and biomedicine
Optical tweezers are well-established as a tool for non-contact, non-destructive handling of biological materials and of inorganic nanospheres attached to biological molecules.
Recently, interest has grown in optical manipulation at surfaces potentially as part of the toolbox of the lab-on-a-chip. In particular, advances have been made in trapping and propulsion of metallic and dielectric micro- and nano-particles in the evanescent fields of optical waveguides, which may form part of a planar microsystem into which optical detection and spectroscopy of separated species could also be integrated. Optical waveguides embedded in surfaces represent a powerful means of controlling the distribution of optical intensity and intensity gradient at such surfaces, for particle control.
In this project, optical waveguides and waveguide devices for trapping, propulsion, sorting and analysis of biological cells are being explored. Live red blood cells have been propelled, improved microfluidics and surface modifications for use with biological cells have been devised, and micro-Raman spectroscopy is being integrated with these optofluidic systems for chemical analysis.

Recent research projects:
Integrated Microsphere Planar Lightwave Circuits
Planar lightwave circuits (PLCs) offer a rugged, low-cost, mass-manufacturable route to the device requirements of future telecommunications systems. Barriers to full exploitation of conventional PLC technologies include the long path lengths required for many optical interactions and the difficulty in producing tight waveguide bends with low loss, both of which limit the density of integration and the scale of mass-manufacture.
Microsphere resonators, primarily demonstrated so far coupled to tapered fibres, have the potential to become key components in photonic circuits, providing feedback, wavelength selectivity and energy storage to allow dispersion control and enhanced nonlinearity, resonant filtering, waveguiding with low bend radius and ultra-low threshold lasing. Many of these properties stem from strengthening the interaction of light with the material through high-Q resonance.
Planar lightwave circuits present an ideal platform for the precise placement of individual microspheres or arrays of microspheres, to realise highly functional circuits in a more robust configuration than fibre devices. We propose to explore the enhancement of conventional waveguide technologies by realising microspheres from advanced glasses with tailored optical properties, positioning them in PLCs using self-assembly techniques, and realising a wide range of passive, lasing and nonlinear switching devices.

Ultrasonic manipulation and transport of DNA molecules in evanescent light fields
Ultrasonic Standing Waves (USWs) can be used to manipulate particles within a fluid. Used within chambers of a half wavelength depth or less, the ultrasonic radiation forces can move the particles either to a central plane within the chamber or to a wall of the chamber.
This project is a multidisciplinary investigation into the use of USWs in microfluidic biosensing applications. It involves the School of Engineering Sciences (SES), the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) and the Microelectronics Research Centre in the Department of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) at the University of Southampton.
The work aims to integrate optical sensing and USW excitation using techniques and materials compatible with emerging microfluidic technology. It will also use the optical/USW techniques to study and quantify the behaviour of the USW chamber, particularly with regard to the ability of "quarter wavelength" chambers to move particles to the chamber wall. The project will apply these techniques to the detection of a number of DNA sequences in a mixture. It will also investigate the feasibility of using acoustic radiation forces to interrogate single DNA sequences with a high resolution.

Automated water analyser computer supported system
Monitoring river water quality and identifying pollution sources are major tasks in the management of the river water environment. A cost-effective, on-line water-monitoring biosensor that will simultaneously and rapidly measure a variety of organic pollutants with low molecular weight with remote control and surveillance was realised in this project. The ORCs activities were to realise the integrated optical 32-way fluorescence immunoassay chip at the heart of the system.

Roth Capital Ups Cash America to Buy
From Standard & Poor's Equity Research
Roth Capital upgraded the pawn shop company Cash America International (CSH) to buy from hold, after the company on Monday raised its second quarter estimates and acquired CashNetUSA.
Analyst Richard Eckert believes CashNetUSA can impart powerful new momentum to earnings per share (EPS) growth. Even though online payday loan volumes are small vs. brick-and-mortar locations, he believes the former are growing much faster than the latter. He believes increased guidance reflects the skyrocketing price of gold over the last four quarters. Given his conviction that gold prices will remain elevated, CashNetUSA will represent a permanent source of increases in both revenue and EPS, he says. He raises his $1.81 2006 EPS estimate to $1.90 and his $2.10 2007 estimate to $2.22. He set a $38 stock price target.

[ENGLAND] Pre-Christmas team parties are as much an English soccer tradition as the post-Christmas rush of games and they almost get as much coverage. This year's biggest story involves a team party that did not take place, or so thought its manager. Almost a week after Harry Redknapp announced Tottenham would not hold a team party this year, it was learned 16 players had without Redknapp's knowledge headed to Dublin for a night of party three days earlier ...
"I am not happy and it will
be dealt with, and dealt with severely, on Monday," Redknapp said of the Dublin trip. "I was shocked when I heard about it. I didn't have a clue they were going and they were told not to do it.
They didn't ask my permission and they will have to take the consequences of that, which they will do. Other teams let their players have parties - Bolton were in Ireland having a party, Manchester
United have had problems as well. I just didn't want my players having one.
"I don't see why parties should happen in today's football -- they're more trouble than they're worth. Most
people can go out, get drunk, fall over and be stupid but as a footballer you can't do that. People are always waiting to catch you out by taking your photo or doing whatever. I don't sympathize
with players. Being sensible is part and parcel of being a footballer and you're well paid for it. I'm a football manager - I wouldn't go out and get drunk, falling around and pulling some old
slag. I'm not that stupid. Even if you wanted to do it, somebody would catch you out."
Redknapp is particularly sensitive to the issue of excess partying, having already fined Ledley King
and David Bentley for drunken outbursts this fall.

The duo's recording appearances and collaborations began to accumulate in the mid-2000s. A cover of Frank Zappa's "Dirty Love" appeared on the 2006 Ubiquity label compilation Rewind! 5. Early the following year, the duo signed with Warner Bros. -- a deal that proved to be fruitless and short-lived. Later that year, The Beauty in Distortion/The Land of the Lost was issued independently. The duo ultimately thrived on its own with self-released EPs Boudoir Synema (2009) and Evil Christian Cop (2011), as well as the album New Designer Drug (also 2011). Later in the 2010s, the duo continued with the EPs Rookie (2014) and POMP (2015). Throughout their alliance, both individually and together, they performed and recorded with a variety of artists, including Sa-Ra, Thundercat, the Roots, 4hero, Miguel, and even Mariah Carey. ~ Cyril Cordor

Geology is the study of the Earth, its processes, history and resources which include petroleum, groundwater and solid minerals such as gold, and the effects of earth materials in humans and life in general.
In its application, Geology is employed to solve many problems of the society in energy supply, water supply, public health, the environment and agriculture.
You become a geologist after studying and obtaining a degree in geology at an accredited university such as Ajayi Crowther University, Oyo.
As a geologist you will be able, among other things, to:
- Explore for, discover, evaluate and develop natural resources, such as, metallic and industrial minerals, coal, groundwater and petroleum resources
- Solve environmental problems associated with pollution, waste management, urbanization and natural hazards, such as earthquakes, erosion and flooding
- Investigate the geological factors that affect structures such as airports, buildings, bridges, dams and roads and proffer appropriate solutions
Employment outlook for geologists is brighter than for most other disciplines in the sciences, specifically, geologists work as professionals in:
- Federal and State government ministries and agencies in the solid minerals, petroleum, hydrology and environmental industries.
- Oil companies
- Exploration and mining companies
- Consulting firms
- The universities and polytechnics – as lecturers (after obtaining higher degrees)
Geologists can also be self-employed as geological consultants, environmental consultants, small scale miners, industrial mineral processors, quarry operators etc.
Several universities offer geology as one of their degree courses. But the geology degree course at ACU is unique and offers you the best option whether you wish to further your studies, seek employment or be self-employed after graduation.
Our uniqueness includes:
- A low student-staff ration, which means you receive more individualized attention from your lecturers
- A curriculum that includes a course in mineral economics. ACU is probably the only place you can study this course at the undergraduate level in Nigeria. This course allows you to expand your employment horizon beyond the traditional geologists' work place to include the banks, insurance companies etc.
- Emphasis on field-based technique in teaching. This teaching technique is arguably the most efficient and comprehensive method to train young geologist. You will have ample opportunity to put what you learn in the classroom into practice on field trips. ACU is probably the only university in Nigeria where geochemical and geophysical techniques are integrated with geological techniques in the teaching mapping.
ACU geology programme is accredited by both the National Universities commission (NUC) and the Council of Mining Engineers and Geoscientists (COMEG) which are the two regulatory bodies for the training of geologists in Nigeria.
To become a good geologist you must have strong interest in the basic sciences – biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics as these are the blocks from which geology is build. You must also like the outdoor life as geologists spend a considerable part of their time in the field.

Extreme cold as much a problem as snow in RI
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) _ Extreme cold was expected to be at least as much of a problem for Rhode Islanders than snow as the first winter storm of 2014 pounded the Northeast.
The National Weather Service said snow totals were expected to be between 6 inches and 10 inches, far less than the nearly 2 feet in parts of Massachusetts.
Temperatures are expected to be as low as 5 degrees to 15 degrees. From Friday night into Saturday morning, temperatures are expected to fall to a range of between 5 below zero and 5 above.
The Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency advised Rhode Islanders to take precautions to cope with the bitter cold. The agency says elderly friends, family and neighbors should be checked on frequently.
The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority is detouring seven bus routes.

HUSHD be the camps to-day;
And, soldiers, let us drape our war-worn weapons;
And each with musing soul retire, to celebrate,
Our dear commanders death.
No more for him lifes stormy conflicts;
Nor victory, nor defeatno more times dark events,
Charging like ceaseless clouds across the sky.
But sing, poet, in our name;
Sing of the love we bore himbecause you, dweller in camps, know it truly.
As they invault the coffin there;
Singas they close the doors of earth upon himone verse,
For the heavy hearts of soldiers.

Metzger Marsh's 900+ acres, 558 are the Ohio Division of Wildlife's property. Which brings me to the question. Why is it, there is 558 acres to hunt, and these people have to set up within 100 yards of each other ?? What ever happened to respect ?
This year, I have seen some of the worst hunting practices I have ever encountered. People setting up way to close to others, sky busting that you wouldn't believe me if I told you and people launching their boats 30 minutes before shooting time. I saw a guy today with 4 robo ducks and 6 decoys. I heard him call as well. Thought it was New Year's eve out there. It appears the only thing some people care about is how many ducks they can get no matter how they get them. A 125 yard shot straight up is NOT duck hunting !!!! How can you identify the bird you are shooting at at that range? A group of guys set up within 100 yards of me. I walked over and said they are too close and asked them if they were going to move, they replied, " 100 yards is far enough, you must not of been duck hunting for very long". The positive side of that encounter, they didn't call every 3 minutes, they didn't call at the birds that were working me and they took quality shots.
I know I have made mistakes and will again. No one is perfect. I will always show respect to other hunters and to the sport of duck hunting.

I know...I'm new here.....but I know how these forums work and they are a plethor of useful information. I need some of that info.
I'm an auto/diesel mechanic by trade and have a customer with an 81 DIEsel Eldorado. I can't find any tech info on this thing ANYWHERE. The injection pump was just replaced and I have no spec on the pulse timing. All I can find is "align marks on pump up to time" I tried that and this thing won't get out of it's own way. Worse than usual. I've pleaded with said customer to let me drive this thing off a cliff and take pics but the old lady seems too attatched to it.

Reflecmedia ChromaFlex is a flexible chroma key solution that allows you to shoot and key almost anywhere. The results achieved using ChromaFlex are as good as those achieved in a dedicated studio, on location, as everything needed comes in one small bag.
This kit includes the small-sized blue LED LiteRing (fits lenses 30 - 72mm in diameter), ChromaFlex EL 3 x 4' (1 x 1.4 m) collapsible Chromatte glass-beaded background, which achieves a high-quality key with no blue spill and excellent edge definition.
The LiteRing is a circular arrangement of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted around the camera lens. The LiteRing provides all the necessary source light required to illuminate the Chromatte fabric for keying. The AC powered LiteRing Controller (LRC) allows adjustment of the intensity of light required for optimum keying results. Ideal shooting distances depend on a number of variables including levels of ambient light, choice of keying applications, camera quality and filming formats. As a rule, the subject should be further than 8' (2.4 m) from the camera to avoid a blue cast of light. Maximum distance is approximately 60' (20 m).
The collapsible pop-up frame springs open when removed from its bag, to create an instantly usable 3 x 4' screen. The surface area of the screen allows sufficient space to shoot from close-up to a wide shot of good proportion. The lightweight, flexible fabric contains millions of glass beads that behave like cats' eyes - it is dark gray to the eye in ambient light, but when used with a camera-mounted LED LiteRing the gray is seen by the camera as a brilliant—but more importantly—even blue background illumination for easy chroma keying. The nature of the interaction between light and the glass beads means that seams, folds and creases are no problem.

She's one of "Dancing with the Stars'" hottest ladies, but things weren't always so easy for Cheryl Burke.
The 26-year-old babe confessed that she has a history of being sexually abused when she was younger.
In her new book "Dancing Lessons," Cheryl shares some painful memories as well as her role in putting her abuser behind bars.
"I'm telling my story. They're not secrets. There's no shame.. I felt guilty for wanting his love and affection. [Testifying against him was] the hardest thing I've ever done. I saw his face and lawyers were asking me these questions and I was like, 'What am I doing? Did he even do anything wrong?'"

The major active ingredient in marijuana and hashish is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The exact nature of its hashish effects is not entirely understood. Although it is believed to change to a psychoactive compound in the liver. The higher the THC content, the stronger the effects. The average potency of marijuana in this country has increased since the 1970s.
The effect sought in cannabis use is euphoria, a feeling of wellbeing and elation. This is usually accompanied by a state of altered perception, particularly of distance and time. The euphoric feeling usually peaks within ten to thirty minutes of smoking marijuana, but residual effects may last from two to three hours.
Marijuana and hashish can impair balance, coordination, speech and thinking. Even small amounts of marijuana have been found to adversely affect driving performance.
Some users experience adverse reactions ranging from mild anxiety to panic. Acute psychotic reactions are rare, but episodes of paranoia are possible.
Cannabis is a class of drugs that includes marijuana, hashish, and hash oil. They all come from the plant Cannabis Sativa. Cannabis is usually smoked using methods such as joints and pipes called bongs or hookahs. It can also be eaten. Hashish can be added to food and is often used in brownies as it has a dark brown and crumbly texture.
Typical effects of cannabis (5-10 puffs from one joint) involve feelings of relaxation, and decreased inhibitions. People may feel more outgoing and more talkative than usual and their level of concentration may become altered. Other effects include impaired balance, rapid heart beat, reddening of the eyes, increased appetite (also known as the "munchies"), dry mouth and throat, and drowsiness.
With higher doses of cannabis typical effects may include feelings of fear, anxiety, panic, frightening hallucinations, and severe impairments of one's perception of time and space.
Regular long-term use of cannabis can have some serious effects on the body. Some of these effects include decreased memory and learning abilities, altered patterns of growth and sexual development, bronchitis, emphysema and lung cancer. It can also be dangerous for people who have heart problems, as it speeds up the heart rate and causes it to work faster. For people who have a history of mental illness or emotional problems, regular cannabis use can make these symptoms worse. With consistent use of cannabis people can become psychologically dependent and experience symptoms such as cravings and anxiety if they cannot get the drug. It is also possible to become physically dependent on cannabis and to experience withdrawal symptoms such as sleeping problems, anxiety, irritability and loss of appetite.
Marijuana and hashish are considered soft drugs. Differently to opium derivatives ( morphine, heroine, etc. ) and another drugs (LSD, cocaine, etc.) they do not cause . "abstinence syndrome" nor physical need to consume them although they capture you psychologically. In opposition to most of the drugs which lead the consumer to isolate himself from the world, they produce a socializing effect which makes the consumer open to people. Any person, even though much accustomed to consume them, can leave the habit , although for a week or so it will have some symptoms as sleepiness, lost of appetite and anger.
Among the positive effects can be mentioned the increase of imagination, euphoria, sense stimulation, feeling of welfare and hallucinations.
Being consumed in excess produces a series of negative effects: loss of memory, anxiety, mouth dryness, hypertension and tachycardia. It causes another negative consequences such as hair and nail weakness, loss of teeth because of caries, intellectual and physical neglect.
It has been unsuccessfully attempted to prove that the consumption of these drugs may suppose a bridge to consume harder ones.
Short-term hashish effects
- relaxation
- altered perception
- paranoia
- dilated pupils
- impaired concentration & memory
- dry mouth & throat.
- increased heart rate.
- fear & anxiety.
- cravings for sweets, referred to by drug users as, "munchies".
(bibliography http://www.newdirectionsprogram.com/marijuana.html)
Muscular incoordination, slurred speech, nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea and reddening of the eyes. Concentration, short-term memory, driving ability, stability, balance, ability to process information and judgement are all markedly impaired. User feels calm, relaxed, talkative and giddy. Sensory perception seems enhanced, colors brighter, sounds more distinct. Appetite, reaction time, pulse rate and pupil size are increased. Sense of time and space distorted. Some users withdraw, or experience fearfulness, spontaneous laughter, anxiety, depression; users experience hallucinations, paranoia and panic reactions with larger doses and symptoms worsen in persons with psychiatric disorders, particularly schizophrenia.
Long-term effects of hash
- reduced levels of male & female hormone
- damage to sperm or menstrual cycles
- temporary loss of fertility in men and women
- addiction
- loss of motivation clinically referred to as , "Amotivational syndrome" (this loss of interest in motivation to work, attend school, loss of interest in sports, family, etc can also just be a symptom of drug addiction in general)
- lung damage, cancer, bronchitis
- lowered ability to deal with frustration and other unpleasant feelings
- decrease of immunity against infection
- interferes with emotional growth and the personality development of adolescents
(bibliography http://www.newdirectionsprogram.com/marijuana.html)
Increased risk of cancers, of the oral cavity, pharynx, and esophagus. Respiratory system damaged by smoking. Disruption in menstrual cycle, decreased sperm count, possible congenital abnormalities are also some of the effects. Psychological effects include panic reactions, psychosis, a motivational syndrome, diminished drive, lessened ambition and decreased motivation. Impaired educational attainment and significant adjustment problems. The High:
Hashish is very similar to Marijuana, and is usually smoked or eaten. Hash oil an extract of hashish is even more potent then hashish. Hashish like marijuana is classified as a psychoactive drug, it elevates the users mood, promotes optimism, relaxation and the blossoming of hope, faith, and humor. Hashish eases tensions, reduces stress, and often induces a positive mental attitude, furthermore hashish also heightens your senses as your perceptual fields become more sensitive to detail. Colors and their contrasts become brighter, and more vivid. Sounds have greater depth, are cleaner and the harmonies they produce are more pronounced. This leads to a certain fascination of music often accompanied with the use of marijuana. Cannabis also intensifies physical awareness and alters ones sense of time (an hour may feel like two or three).

Point Grey Mennonite Fellowship existed from 1965 to 1968. The fellowship was comprised of mostly university students from Mennonite Brethren (MB) churches in Vancouver. This group had a loose affiliation with the British Columbia Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches but declined membership. In 1967 the group requested that any responsibility to the Mennonite Brethren conference be considered to be nonexistent. They met for a time in the YMCA. They were also known as the West End Mennonite Brethren Fellowship.
