The R.A.D objective: "To develop and enhance the options of self defense, so they may become viable considerations to the woman who is attacked." Larry Nadeau
The R.A.D. approach to personal safety is a comprehensive course for women that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defense training. As we all know there is no guarantee that awareness, and the practice of preventative and risk reduction techniques will always keep a women out of physical danger.
R.A.D. courses also place emphasis in areas that instill dependency on self, and making your own decisions. She must be able to decide when and when not to use force in self-defense. She must make her own decision based on what she feels is right for her at that point in time.
R.A.D. offers the opportunity to exert physical strength. Many women do not have a self realization of their own physical power. Along with offering women the chance to strike something with 100% impact force, it also gives women a chance to see themselves as being effective in a confrontational situation.
Idaho State University currently offers one R.A.D. course every eight weeks per semester (with the exception of the first eight weeks in the fall semester). R.A.D is only offered at the Pocatello campus at this time. These courses are one credit courses instructed by ISU Public Safety personnel who are certified as R.A.D. instructors. Public Safety also offers non credit R.A.D. courses, a minimum of 12 hours, to university students and employees. It is estimated that between 150 and 200 women at ISU will complete the course each semester.
Students interested in enrolling in R.A.D. for credit should consult the course catalog under Health Education or Physical Education.
R.A.D. Instructors certify through R.A.D. Systems, Inc., Tidewater Academy, Denham Springs, Louisiana, Larry Nadeau, Director.

Project Overview
Customer: Vattenfall
Project: Up to 14 Pelamis machines
Location: 1-10km off the west coast of mainland Shetland, Scotland
Capacity: 10MW
Status: Currently in development
"The partnership with Pelamis allows us to work on developing a site that will prove very productive when we make wave power a commercial reality."
Dr Helmar Rendez, Head of Group Function Strategies at Vattenfall
Aegir - Shetland Wave Farm
Pelamis Wave Power and Vattenfall, one of the largest utilities in Europe, have launched a joint venture to develop the first wave power project off the Shetland Islands.
The joint venture company, called Aegir Wave Power, has secured an Agreement for Lease to develop a 10MW Pelamis farm off the southwest coast of Shetland.
Shetland has been selected as a key strategic location for deployment of wave power technology due to the world class resource, combined with the existing skill set and infrastructure that complement the future requirements of the nascent marine energy industry. The current plans for a HVDC link to allow electricity export from Shetland to the Scottish mainland has made a commercial scale wave energy project on Shetland possible.
For more information about the joint venture Aegir project in Shetland, please see the dedicated website:

I like to think I'm a really great friend.
I'm great at finding good pizza, and even better at finding good ice cream in essentially any city I visit - it's really a skill!
But I love TV more: Arrested Development (I can't wait for the new season), 30 Rock, Parks and Rec, Modern Family, White Collar, Chopped, Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, How I Met Your Mother, Switched at Birth, Parenthood, the first three seasons of Weeds, Mad Men, Downton Abbey, I love teen dramas like Dawson's Creek, especially things produced by Josh Schwarts - xoxo Gossip Girl
Books: I read anything and everything I can get at the library.
Food: I could eat pizza everyday. Sushi, lasagna, veggie burgers, Thai food, I'm a vegetarian but I miss hamburgers like no other. And I have a crazy sweet tooth - cupcakes, cookies, and reese's are my vices.
A television
My cell phone
My family
Also how I can get a job in film where I have to do minimal work and get to hang out with cool directors all day!
I'm looking for someone genuine, who can make me laugh constantly and has some sense that chivalry isn't dead, sugar.
Please don't message me if more than 3% of your day is spent on this thing - I'm much too awkward to handle a guy who can't have a functioning conversation off the internet!

THE co-owner of a South Lakeland farm has been sentenced after an employee was found dead under the wheel of a tractor.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) prosecuted Stuart Webster following the death of Thomas Phizacklea at Aurora Park Farm in Scales near Ulverston. The body of the 34-year-old from Dalton-in-Furness was discovered on July 2, 2009.
Barrow Crown Court was told today that the 27-year-old tractor was in a poor condition, there had been problems starting it in the past and the handbrake did not work.
An HSE investigation concluded the most likely explanation for Mr Phizacklea's death was that he left the tractor running in neutral without the handbrake on as he got out of the cab to walk around the vehicle.
His body was found trapped between the front offside wheel and a mound of earth, after the tractor rolled forwards.
Stuart Webster, 49, of Main Street, Greenodd pleaded guilty to breaching Regulation 5(1) of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 by failing to ensure the tractor was in good working order. He was fined £20,000 and ordered to pay £29,184 in prosecution costs.
In mitigation, Joseph Hirst told the court that Webster was unaware of the problem with the handbrake, having used the tractor about two weeks before the incident.

Black Takes Back-To-Back GT-3 SCCA Championships
Posted by: newsla on Sep 24, 2012 - 11:35 AM
Black Takes Back-To-Back GT-3 SCCA Championships
John Black, of Olympic Valley, Calif., captured his second-consecutive GT-3 Championship, winning Sunday's SCCA National Championship Runoffs® race at Road America. Jeff Dernehl, of Woodstock, Ga., and Paul Young, of Commerce Township, Mich., completed the podium.
Starting from the Gumout Pole Position, Black watched second qualifying Mike Henderson, of El Cajon, Calif., get the jump with his No. 12 Mazda/Redline Oil/Goodyear Mazda RX-7 at the drop of the green. On lap three, Black got a good run out of Turn Eight and drove his No. 17 Murillo Racing Nissan 350Z around the outside of Henderson in the Carousel. The pass earned Black the GoPro Hero Move of the Race.
Once out front, Black slowly stretched out his advantage, taking a 1.959-second victory, averaging 99.485 mph.
"I tried to start the race off a little slower, hoping that the Mazdas wouldn't get to the top speed that they are capable of," Black said. "At some point, I thought that all three Mazdas might go by me at the start. I felt pretty lucky that it was just one. Mike seemed to be struggling for the first couple of laps and I was able to get by him in the Carousel.
"I was expecting a battle to the very end, with the tires all worn out and people sliding all over the place. Fortunately for me, I made it to the last lap. If I had to go one more, I think Jeff would have gotten me. I pretty much used up everything in the car by the last lap."
Dernehl qualified his No. 03 Roswell Outback Auto/RRE/Hoosier Mazda RX-7 fourth, but started third when Mike Cyphert didn't make the grid. Dernehl was challenged early by Wolfgang Maike, who charged from seventh on the grid but retired after 10 laps.
It was the second-straight year that Dernehl finished second to Black at the Runoffs.
"John [Black] is a very tough competitor and I knew that he was going to be very tough to beat out there," Dernehl said. "Mike [Henderson] has a very fast car and my plan was to hang in there and let those two battle and keep digging. What I didn't count on was Wolfgang [Maike]! He really gave me a race. I had to keep my eye on the goal, which was to catch the boys in front.
"Once I was by Henderson, I put my sights on John, but I couldn't quite close the gap. Toward the end, I could sense he was a bit in trouble. I don't want to wish anything bad on anyone, but I was hoping he might have a problem on the last lap."
Young started eighth in his No. 79 Young Racing LLC/Hoosier Tire Ford Probe, but charged to the final podium position, turning the Hawk Hot Lap of the race in the process, with a 2:23.593 (100.283 mph). It was Young's best finish since coming home second in 1999.
"It feels fantastic being back on the [podium]," Young said. "I didn't have my heart in this thing at the beginning of the week. A lot of people know that my wife passed away a year ago almost to the day. It was tough coming back, because I happened to be here and she was at home.
"I've been having some issues this year, and this was really the first time the car has run right all season. Hats off to the guys that help me. It turned out to be a great week."
James Hargrove, of Surrey, B.C., finished fourth in his No. 38 RaceEnergy/Analytic Systems Honda Civic, followed by Ken Nelson, of Novi, Mich., and his Nissan 200-SX.
Robert Herman, of Cairo, Neb., finished sixth in his No. 0 Herman Plumbing/Kim's Auto Repair Mazda RX-7, earning the Sunoco Hard Charger Award for advancing from the 13th starting position.
Now in its 49th year, the SCCA National Championship Runoffs annually crowns Champions in the Sports Car Club of America's Club Racing classes. The live broadcast of all 28 National Championship races will be available through Sunday at www.SpeedcastTV.com/scca and later available On Demand from the same site.

Andrew Allen Featured On TLC
TLC is running a super cute commercial for their summer show line-up, and what better background music than Andrew Allen's "Loving You Tonight"?!?
The commercial shows some great clips from many of the shows that will be featured this summer, including "Cake Boss", "19 Kids And Counting", "The Little Couple", "Toddlers & Tiaras", and my personal favorite, "Say Yes To The Dress".
I never thought that I would be a TLC watcher, but I just can't pull myself away from these shows once I start watching them!
Check out the video here! Which TLC show are you most looking forward to watching this summer?
In case you missed it, here are some videos of Andrew performing live this past weekend at Sabrina's Sleepover!

ARE there no more real girls in Warrington?
All the ones I see are Big Brother obsessed, fake tanned wannabe WAGs, acting like desperate Scousewives fancying celebrities they will never get to marry.
I find it tragic that this is a sad reality in Warrington and other other towns.
The fact that girls worship vain, shallow 'icons' like Mark Wright and Lauren Goodger is weird. I see so many Warrington girls trying to achieve the TOWIE look, which is quite frankly repulsive. You see in magazines women of about 20 bursting into tears and fainting when they meet Lauren Goodger at a 'signing'. The thing that worries me is that it's not just gullible women who watch these programmes, I know a lot of intelligent females who watch them, my friend being one.
TOWIE is not a real documentary it is all scripted.
I tuned into the show for about 30 seconds and actually felt myself losing the will to live as I heard Mark Wright speak.
I find it alarming how many clones of these people I see in Warrington – girls who look like they have a disfunctioning liver from fake tan, hair straightened and coloured to within an inch of their lives.
Their appearance certainly achieves the wannabe WAG's ultimate aim — attracting attention.

Hello! Well finally this problem was solved. The problem was that the
floppy wasn't configured in the BIOS! And looks like that m0n0wall is
not able to configure it's interfaces "on the fly"! I have done the
configuration and just after the reboot I was able to get IP through
DHCP and access the webGUI!
Well thanks for you all!! ;)

By Bruce Horovitz, USA TODAY
Call it the battle of the virtual burger babes.
In one corner, there's Kim Kardashian, the sexy cable star, eager to chat via webcam with Carl's Jr. customers on "The Ultimate Salad Lunch Date" at www.facebook.com/carlsjr.
In the other corner, there's Burger King's "Shower Babe," an anonymous 20-year-old from South London. Folks can watch and hear her online while she showers in a bikini and sings. Viewers are asked to vote for what song she'll sing — and what bikini she'll wear — the next day.
One "seriously lucky" person in the U.K. who visits the website, www.singingintheshower.co.uk, will win a breakfast date with Shower Babe.
This may be the virtual future of fast-food advertising. Never mind that BK is pitching breakfast items and Carl's is pitching salads with these promos. Chains such as BK and Carl's, which squarely target teens and twentysomethings, find that the triple combo of hot babes, fast food and webcams work well to draw hard-to-reach teen guy prime customers to their sites and, ultimately, into stores.
But critics abound.
"It's as if we're back in the 1950s the way pop culture portrays women, but with New Age technology," says Terry O'Neill, president of the National Organization for Women.
Martin Lindstrom, a marketing consultant, questions whether sex in ads really sells. While viewers are quick to recall sexual imagery, they mostly forget what brand is behind the ad, he says. "What does sex really have to do with burgers?"
That's not the point, says Andy Puzder, CEO of Carl's Jr. "You can say 1,000 times that you have a great burger and no one will listen to you, but if you put a beautiful woman in the ad, they will."
Consumers who buy new Carl's salads between Dec. 30 and Jan. 12 will be given a special code granting access to ask Kardashian questions during the Jan. 13 virtual lunch date. No code is required, however, to watch the event via streaming video.
The BK site advises fans to "watch our shower babe shake her bits to the hits at 9:30 a.m. every morning."
The campaign, which began Dec. 8, ends on Thursday. The site has had 70,000 unique visitors. "While we know (it) won't appeal to every consumer," BK spokeswoman Michelle Miguelez says, "we do know that it does resonate with our key male superfans in the U.K."

Ada Nicodemou's baby tragedy
Devastating news for Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou.
After over a month of private grieving over the tragic loss of her baby boy Harrison to stillbirth on 7 August, Home & Away star Ada Nicodemou has shared this heartbreaking post on Instagram:
Her words cut to the heart of the loss and grief that only a mother who has lost her child would know. While we don't have any words to make it better, we hope that the overwhelming response of comments and well-wishes the star has received on social media will at least let her know that she is not quite so alone in her sadness.
Original post:
Every now and then, you get a reminder that celebrities are just humans, too. Today, a reminder came in the most brutal of ways, when we heard that Home & Away star Ada Nicodemou and husband Chrys Xipolitas lost their baby boy, Harrison, to stillbirth.
Ada and Chrys, already parents to toddler Johnas, released the following statement via the Home & Away Facebook page:
"It is with great sadness that we need to share some news with you.
Our baby boy Harrison was delivered stillborn on Thursday 7 August 2014.
We appreciate your love and support as we mourn the loss of our precious son.
We understand we have lived some of our lives in the public eye.
But we respectfully ask for privacy at this difficult and extremely painful time so we can grieve and heal.
With love Ada, Chrys & Johnas"
In the lead-up to her due date, Ada was over the moon, having struggled to conceive Johnas for two years.
"You do pinch yourself, and when you have those moments when you're tired and not feeling so great and you're complaining about it, you think, 'Hang on a second, this is actually a blessing' she told Digital Spy.
"You don't want to get too attached in the first 12 weeks, but seeing the baby at our scan was exciting. The more it's sinking in, the more excited I am getting."
It's hard to imagine what Ada and her family must be going through right now – and indeed, only those who have been through the same tragedy ever could. To be in those final days of pregnancy, friends and family (and in Ada's case, fans) waiting eagerly for news of a healthy birth, only to have your joy ripped from you in the cruellest possible way – it must be as devastating as it is paralysing. It's something that every mother dreads, which was evident in the immediate and overwhelming outpouring of support on social media:
We wish Ada, Chrys and Johnas love and peace as they attempt to heal from this tragedy. Rest in peace little Harrison.

In each pair, one is slightly smaller than the other to add interest to a grouping, and they hold standard votive candles. For only 10 bucks, you might as well snatch up a few pairs. Just don't go burning down the house.

When we discussed this topic at the developer's meeting, I thought we had general consensus that it would be a good idea to package a limited number of important and stable debugging tools with the core server, and I had the impression that you (Tom) thought this was a reasonable thing to do. If you don't, or if you did then but don't now, then it seems to me that this conversation is dead in the water for so long as you're the one packaging for Red Hat, and we should just move on; you pretty much have unassailable personal veto power on this issue. But let's not pretend that the conversation is about what packagers in general will do, because I don't think it is. I think it's about what you personally will do. I think that if we move a few things into src/extension and set things up such that they get installed even if you just do "make install" rather than requiring "make install-world", packagers who don't have any terribly strong personal agenda will decide that means they ought to be shipped with the server. However, if you're personally committed to making sure that all of that stuff remains in postgresql-contrib in Red Hat/Fedora, regardless of where we move it to on our end, then that's where it's going to be, at least on all Red Hat-derived systems, which is a big enough chunk of the world to matter quite a lot. Note that I'm not necessarily saying anything about whether your reasons for such a decision might be good or bad; I'm just pointing out that a good deal of our ability to make a change in this area is within your personal control. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

Indian River School District to hold January referendum
No new schools, but more classrooms are the goal
A successful referendum would help the IRSD to build four classrooms at Phillip Showell Elementary, two at Selbyville Middle, and eight each at Long Neck, North Georgetown and East Millsboro elementary schools and the Georgetown Elementary/Middle School Complex.
Voters residing in the district can answer two questions in the January referendum. The first would allow the IRSD and State of Delaware to sell bonds (or borrow money) to fund the $11,011,000 project. The state funds 60 percent ($6,606,600), while Indian River is responsible for 40 percent ($4,404,400).
The second question involves a tax increase to pay the bills. The district is requesting an additional 11.5 cents per $100 of assessed property value. That money would fund the additional resources going into those new classrooms, including desks, technology, supplies, utilities, additional staff and programs that use the space, from summer school to advanced academics.
While the district graduated around 550 students in June, recent kindergarten classes have numbered in the upper 700s and sometimes hit 800. Long Neck and Georgetown are particularly affected by population growth. Over time, bubbles of students are expected to fill all school levels.
In June, the school board began preparing Certificates of Necessity, also considering a new elementary or middle school, along with the option of building new classrooms. The Delaware Department of Education approved the third option, which IR will pursue: new classrooms at many schools.
Now, district officials have eight weeks to educate the public and get a majority of "yes" votes if the plan is to move forward.
"We're available to speak to any civic group that would wish to have us come," said IRSD Superintendent Susan Bunting. "We're just begging for the opportunity to share what it is that we have in front of us."
The district was set to begin informing teachers and staff about the referendum immediately, while also sending information into the community. Two public meetings will be scheduled soon.
"We have a lot of enthusiasm, and we're ready to roll," Bunting said.
Indian River's last referendum, in March of 2010, did not involve a tax increase. The successful bill allowed IRSD to transfer leftover funds from one construction project to another. The last building referendum was in 2006. The questions in that referendum all passed, allowing roof renovations at Selbyville Middle, and Long Neck and North Georgetown elementary schools.
In other IR Board of Education news:
• The IRSD board received an update on the Common Core State Standards Initiative, in which 45 U.S. states have partnered to provide a more advanced education.
All schools have standards, or goals, which students must reach. The new Common Core is based on the highest national and international standards, aimed at giving students a competitive edge in the global economy. Indian River schools will raise the level of rigor in each grade, with a stronger focus on relevant literacy, information and math.
Since most of the country will have identical standards, students who move to different states are expected to have an easier time transitioning, because they'll face the same educational expectations. Plus, Common Core is considered cost-effective because states can pool their resources and share lessons, rather than each state researching and designing curricula individually.
While Delaware officials are targeting implementing the new curriculum in the 2013-2014 school year, the IRSD has been working for two years to train teachers and prepare students for the transition.
• The first and second reading of policy JG: Student Discipline was unanimously approved, which "cleans up the policy to fall in line with current practices," said Board Member W. Scott Collins. The JG policy states that students must serve the full 90 days of social probation, even if they complete a rehabilitation or suspension program early, after violating district drug and alcohol rules.
• The first reading of ECA: Security Camera System Policy was unanimously approved. Some IR schools already use cameras in public areas, such as hallways, parking lots and cafeterias, as well as district buses. This policy would spell out the district's official position on camera use.
• The board recognized teachers and staff for their participation in PD 360 videos of outstanding teaching. IR classrooms were featured in professional development videos that teachers nationwide can use in the School Improvement Network. Honorees included Susan Bunting, Sandy Smith, LouAnn Hudson, Jilian Whaley and Audrey Carey at district office; Laura Schneider, Melissa Grunewald, Debra Buffington, Cheryl Carey, Christine Morrison, Heather Cramer at Phillip Showell; Char Hopkins, Donna Toomey, Ondra Massey, Cathy Dorey, Bonnie Crowther, Maggie Carey, Jen Babcock of John M. Clayton; and additional staff at Long Neck Elementary, Millsboro Middle and Sussex Central High schools.
• After submitting the most competitive bid, Dellose & DiFonzo Associates LLC was unanimously approved to provide investigative services to the school district for researching prospective employees.
The next Indian River Board of Education meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 18, at 7 p.m. at Sussex Central High School.

SPORTS >> Falcons sneak past CAC and advance to state semifinals
Leader sportwriter
ALMA Its hard to imagine how upset head coach Ray Cooper might have been if his North Pulaski Falcons had actually lost.
As it was, he was plenty upset even after North Pulaski (23-6) held on for a 64-63 win over Central Arkansas Christian in the quarterfinal round of the 5A state tournament at Airedale Arena on Thursday night. They will take on the winner of Fridays quarterfinal matchup between top-ranked Forrest City and Morrilton.
The Falcons escaped, thanks to a mid-air defensive grab by Daquan Bryant that prevented Central Arkansas Christian from launching one last shot with .5 second left.
The Mustangs (17-11) took their best shot on the heels of a blistering 23-point performance by senior guard Carter Trent, and North Pulaski watched numerous opportunities to pull away go by the wayside with a simple flick of Trents wrists. Trent lit up the Falcons with seven three-point baskets, going 70 percent for the game from behind the arc.
Theres no sense in me coming back on Saturday, said a surprisingly dejected Cooper after the game. Because theyre taking the scouting report out, and theyre not doing what were telling them to do out of time-outs.
We talked about all game long, dont leave (Trent). Dont leave him. And we leave him wide open, six threes uncontested in the first half. So Im just going to let the team come up here on Saturday and do it on their own since they dont need me.
The only two-point basket of the night for Trent with 14 seconds left pulled the Mustangs to within one. He then quickly sent Jerald Blair to the line with no time off the clock for a one-and-one. Blair missed the front end, and CAC rebounded and got the ball down court. The Mustangs called time out with less than seven seconds remaining to set up a potential game-winning play.
They went to Trent one last time, but his shot was off the mark, as Aaron Cooper chased the ball to the end line, but could not come up with the rebound. The clock ran out after the ball went out, but the officials put 0.5 second back on the clock.
Lucas Sandlin chunked the ball high in the lane on the inbound, but Bryant prevented a tip in with a grab in the paint that sealed it.
Were here to play the best that we can, said Cooper. I can accept losses. Losses happen in basketball. But you go out and you give your best effort, both mentally and physically. Physically, I thought we played harder this game, but we played stupid continuously.
The Falcons relied more heavily on the inside game, led by Bryants 20 points and eight rebounds.
He put up nine of those points in the first quarter, but Trents four long-distance shots kept the Mustangs out front for much of the period. Bryant had a four-point run in the final minute that tied the game at 17-all before Ryan Lamberson scored in the final seconds to end the first quarter 19-17 CAC.
The Mustangs added to their lead to start the second quarter with baskets by Mason Morgan and Jaylon Jones. Jones shot at the 6:56 mark gave CAC their biggest lead of the game at 23-17, but it was short-lived.
Junior guard Aaron Cooper cut that lead to one with an inside basket, followed by a three-pointer with 4:15 left in the half. Bryant and Cooper then went to the line on consecutive trips, and went 4 of 4 to put North Pulaski back on top, 32-27.
Trents sixth three-pointer of the first half came just before the halftime buzzer to give the Mustangs a 38-37 lead at the break.
Things like that will eventually bite you if you dont wake up and realize it, said Cooper. We had our good players, supposedly, and we put Aaron on him, and Aaron left him open. We put Blair on him, and Blair left him open. We put Christian (Knight) on him, and Christian left him open. We put Kyron on him, and Kyron left him open.
So I dont know if Ive got a dude thats smart enough to read 15 (Trents number) on a jersey.
Things looked good for North Pulaski with 1:29 left in the game when the Falcons held a 62-55 lead after a shot by Kyron Ware. Post player Scott Cook quickly answered for CAC with a bucket, and a steal set up a lay-up by Sandlin to make it 62-59 with 1:07 left.
The Mustangs then forced a five-second call on the ensuing inbounds play, which led to a pair of free throws by Lamberson that cut it to one. Ware then hit both ends of a one-and-one, but Lucas drove for a basket to cut it to one.
Blair got four of his six points in the middle of the fourth quarter on an assist from Bryant at the 5:45 mark and a putback with 4:11 left to play.
The Falcons shot 25 of 46 for the game, including 3 of 9 from three-point range. CAC was 22 of 41 and 10 of 17. North Pulaski won the rebounding battle 24-18, and committed 15 turnovers compared to 19 giveaways by the Mustangs.
Cooper added 16 points and five assists for North Pulaski. Ware finished with 10 points, with 10 points each for Blair and post Carlos Donley.
For CAC, Lamberson had 10 points, while Cook led on the boards with five rebounds.

Waikato Innovation Park Contributed Over $100m to Region
Waikato Innovation Park Contributed More than $100m to Region Over Past 10 Years
According to a 10 year economic impact report, the Waikato Innovation Park has brought $16M of establishment funding into the region and employee-related benefits from those working at the Park have contributed more than $100M to the regional economy.
The report, carried out by the Institute for Business Research at the Waikato Management School, outlines the Park's direct and indirect contributions to Waikato's economy since its establishment in 2002 through to 2012.
In addition to quantifying the Park's decade of economic contributions, the report estimates future contributions. One of the most significant is from its milk powder dryer which was launched in 2012 to help food companies with new product development. Within the next three years the report estimates the dryer will contribute an additional $63M in milk powder exports to the region.
The report also forecasts that the Park's operating revenue is set to increase from $4.027M in 2012 to $5M by 2015. Assets are projected to nearly double to $61.4M by 2015.
Current and projected employee benefits, which have been based on an average remuneration package of $100,000 and a multiplier of 2.4, are forecast to contribute a further $20M over the next three years. Employee numbers are also expected to nearly double to 800.
Led by Waikato
Management School Professor Frank Scrimgeour, the report
builds upon an economic impact study conducted in 2007 which
analysed the Park's first five years of operation.
Professor Scrimgeour said the report confirms that the Park's annual operating revenue has improved consistently over the past 10 years.
"Consequently this is improving the Park's future economic viability and is leading to an improved equity situation, improved asset values and the potential to expand with new buildings, tenancies and initiatives like the new milk powder spray dryer."
Waikato Innovation Park chief executive Stuart Gordon said the Park had grown from an idea with no staff and no physical assets to an economic entity with a balance sheet of total non-current assets of $22.6M in 2012.
"The core facilities building was completed in two stages over 2003 and 2004 and the Tetra Pak building was completed in 2009. Today the Park hosts around 54 companies employing 420 people – and there is a waiting list of tenants who would like to be based here. We're planning for the next stages of development and the next five years will be an exciting time of sustainable growth."
The Park's shareholders include Hamilton City Council and The Katolyst Group. It was established in 2002 with financial contributions from Hamilton City Council and the Government's former Major Regional Initiative scheme.
Mr Gordon recently presented the economic impact report to Hamilton City Council executives, councillors and Mayor Julie Hardaker.

Tanegashima, Japan (SPX) Feb 26, 2014
Join NASA in counting down to the launch of the Global Precipitation Measurement mission's Core Observatory, starting at noon EST, Thursday, Feb. 27. GPM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, and it will set a new standard in measuring rain and snow around the world.
As we build up to the launch from Tanegashima Space Center in Japan, NASA scientists will discuss the satellite's major innovations and the big questions GPM will set out to answer. Follow along on NASA Television (www.nasa.gov/ntv) and ask your big questions to the experts using #gpm on Twitter. GPM is scheduled to launch from Tanegashima Space Center at 1:07 p.m. EST on Feb. 27, 2014.
Also, join in on the conversation on Monday, Feb. 24, from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. EST in our prelaunch TweetChat. Find us @NASA_Rain and tag your questions with #gpm or #askNASA for our project scientists and managers. Art Azarbarzin, GPM project manager, and Gail Skofronick-Jackson, GPM project scientist, will be live from Japan, and Candace Carlisle, GPM deputy project manager, and Dalia Kirschbaum, GPM scientist, will be live from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
GPM Enclosed in Fairing
The encapsulation process for the H-IIA is very different than for most U.S. rockets. For U.S. rockets, the fairing is usually in two pieces that close around the payload like a clamshell. To install the GPM Core Observatory into the fairing of the H-IIA rocket, first the Core Observatory and the Payload Attach Fitting (PAF) are set up in scaffolding in the Encapsulation Hall.
Then, the fairing is lifted above and lowered onto the fitting. When only a few feet remain above the final position, stanchions support the fairing while technicians go inside to complete the electrical connections. When this is completed, they remove the stanchions and lower the fairing to its final position, where it is bolted in place.
The GPM mission is the first coordinated international satellite network to provide near real-time observations of rain and snow every three hours anywhere on the globe. The GPM Core Observatory anchors this network by providing observations on all types of precipitation.
The observatory's data acts as the measuring stick by which partner observations can be combined into a unified data set. The data will be used by scientists to study climate change, freshwater resources, floods and droughts, and hurricane formation and tracking.

Justice League Heroes
Justice League Heroes
PC Xbox PS2 X360 Wii GC NDS PSP
Rating: 3.5/5
The Justice League is a superhero collective drawn from the pages of DC Comics, featuring the familiar faces of Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, The Flash and many more colourfully costumed characters.
With its style reminiscent of those old Saturday morning cartoon shows, Heroes is a return to the days of no-frills beat-'em-up action.
Each level is designed for a dynamic duo, so two players can enjoy the game together, pummelling waves of enemies with a variety of enjoyable superpowers.
Occasionally, there are specific objectives to meet, such as conquering a super villain or figuring out a way to smash down a heavily armoured door, but there are no brain-taxing puzzles.
The heroes are all capable of light or heavy melee attacks, as well as up to five unique powers that can be upgraded over the course of the game. For example, Superman can zap targets with his heat-ray vision or freeze enemies in their tracks with his super breath. Green Lantern can use his energy ring to create traps or fire projectiles and Wonder Woman's golden lasso can hold enemies and give them a painful squeeze.
Most of the characters can also fly but it's actually more of a hovering move that is useful for temporarily getting out of harm's way.
Even though the top-down perspective is a bit far from the action, there's a keen attention to detail in the animation that brings the heroes alive. Fans will really appreciate the way The Flash throws punches in a hyperactive blur or how Batman can leap into the air and fan out his cape like a pair of giant bat wings.
It's these little design touches that add real comic book authenticity to the adventure and make the simple action all the more enjoyable.
Endgame: The arcade-style fist fights can get a little repetitive but DC Comic fans should get a thrill out of teaming up their favourite characters.

Offensive line
Lost: John Simonitis*, Joe Villani*
Returning: Mike McGlynn*, Jeff Otah*, C.J. Davis*, Joe Thomas*, John Bachman, John Brown, Chase Clowser, Scott Corson, Kevin Hughes, Jason Pinkston, Chris Vangas, Dom Williams
Newcomers: Chris Jacobson, John Fieger, Greg Gaskins, Dan Matha
Breakdown: The line returns four starters, but there is some shuffling to do. The left side will stay intact with Otah at tackle and Davis at guard. Pinkston moved to right tackle when McGlynn missed most of the spring with a shoulder injury. The big question marks are at right guard and center.
Positives: The Panthers wanted to five find linemen, and they accomplished that. Otah developed into the best of the bunch and could be an All-Big East performer. With Davis next to him, the left side of the line could be an asset. Pinkston looks like he has a future at right tackle. And, for once, Pitt has depth with Bachman, Brown and Williams.
Negatives: There are some serious concerns in the interior. After stepping in for the injured Simonitis and becoming a freshman All-America, Thomas took a step backwards this spring. He showed up overweight, struggled against Gus Mustakas and lost the coaches' confidence. Even worse, neither Vangas nor Bachman performed well enough to win the starting center job. McGlynn suffered a torn labrum early in spring drills and might not be ready for the season opener Sept. 1 against Eastern Michigan.
X factor: Jacobson was a U.S. Army All-American, where he dominated practices against the nation's best defensive line prospects. He brings a mean streak to an offensive line that has been lacking one, and has a chance to push Thomas for starting right guard. First, Jacobson must get eligible. Then, he has to learn the offense. But his arrival will further fortify the line and put some on alert.
Projected starters: LT Jeff Otah, LG C.J. Davis, C Mike McGlynn, RG Joe Thomas, RT Jason Pinkston. For once, the Panthers have size and experience on the line. McGlynn is a three-year starter who knows the calls, played center in high school and is a long snapper who could make a seamless transition if he is healthy. That would allow Bachman a year to get comfortable playing center and back up every position in the meantime.
