Three Princeton researchers will join a mission to study dark energy and dark matter as participants in the European Space Agency's (ESA) planned Euclid space telescope project. The Princeton astrophysicists will work as part of team led by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena, Calif.
The Euclid mission is a space telescope designed to probe the mysteries of dark energy and dark matter. NASA is a partner in the Euclid mission, currently scheduled to launch in 2020.
The Princeton researchers are David Spergel, the Charles A. Young Professor of Astronomy on the Class of 1897 Foundation; Michael Strauss, professor of astrophysical sciences; and Robert Lupton, senior research scientist in the Department of Astrophysical Sciences. They will contribute to science planning and data analysis as part of JPL's 43-member science team, 29 of whom were recently appointed by NASA.
"Euclid is a space-based telescope so its view will not be affected by the Earth's atmosphere," Strauss said. "Conducting surveys of the galaxies from space will allow Euclid scientists to measure their properties in greater detail than can be done from Earth."
The team is led by JPL scientist Jason Rhodes, who earned his Ph.D. at Princeton in 1999. JPL will provide 16 advanced infrared detectors and four spares for one of two instruments planned for the mission.
The JPL team is the largest of three U.S. teams participating in Euclid. The others are led by Ranga-Ram Chary of the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center at the California Institute of Technology, and Alexander Kashlinsky of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., with three and seven members, respectively.
The Euclid Consortium is an international body of 1,000 members that will oversee the development of the instruments and analyze the science data jointly.
"Understanding the hidden contents of the universe and the nature of the dark energy will require the collaboration of astronomers and engineers around the world," Rhodes said.
Euclid will observe up to 2 billion galaxies occupying more than one-third of the sky with the goal of better understanding the contents of our universe. Everyday matter that we see around us — for example in tables and chairs, people, and stars — makes up only a few percent of the matter in the cosmos. A larger amount of the cosmos, about 24 percent, is thought to consist of dark matter, an invisible substance that does not reflect or emit any light but exerts a gravitational tug on other matter.
The majority of the universe, about 73 percent, is thought to be filled with dark energy, something even more mysterious than dark matter. Whereas dark matter pulls through its gravity, dark energy is thought to be a repulsive force pushing matter apart. Scientists think dark energy may be responsible for stretching our universe apart at ever-increasing speeds, an observation that earned the Nobel Prize in physics in 2011.
Euclid scientists will use two different methods to make the most precise measurements yet of our "dark" universe. The first method, called weak lensing, involves analyzing the shapes of billions of galaxies. When dark matter lies in front of galaxies, it can't be seen but its gravity distorts the light from the galaxies behind it. More dark matter will lead to slightly larger distortions. By measuring these minute distortions, scientists can understand the amount and distribution of the dark matter between the Earth and these galaxies.
Changes in these dark matter structures over time are governed by an interplay between the attractive force of gravity and the repulsive force of dark energy. Thus, studying galaxy shapes reveals information about both dark matter and dark energy.
The second method, called galaxy clustering or baryon acoustic oscillations, will serve as an independent measurement of dark energy. Early in the universe, galaxies were imprinted with a standard distance between them. This distance — referred to as a standard ruler — expands as the universe itself expands. By making precise measurements of the distances of tens of millions of galaxies, the scientists will be able to chart this expansion and learn more about the dark energy driving it.
The U.S. science team will employ both of these methods, and work together with the rest of the Euclid scientists, to shine light on the darkest riddles of our cosmos.
Euclid is a European Space Agency mission with science instruments and data analysis provided by the Euclid consortium with important participation from NASA. NASA's Euclid Project Office is based at JPL. JPL will contribute the infrared flight detectors for one of Euclid's two science instruments. NASA Goddard will assist with infrared detector characterization and will perform detailed testing on flight detectors prior to delivery. Three U.S. science teams, led by JPL, Goddard and the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center at Caltech, will contribute to science planning and data analysis. Caltech manages JPL for NASA.

"If you cannot see the difference between Russell's teapot and the great world religions, then you're no more qualified to talk about religion than the fellow who thinks that cultural bias is the only reason any of us believe in the Big Bang is qualified to talk about cosmology."
"Even those who agree that ridiculing people for their beliefs is not only counter-productive, but just bad behavior, often don't seem to think there's any difference between the brand of religion practiced by Pamela Gay (or by myself, for that matter) and Creationism"
The problem is that skeptical theists like Pamela Gay (I named a category after her and clearly Knop fits that category) want to claim that their beliefs address untestable claims and that skepticism simply doesn't apply to those beliefs.
"Yes, there is absolutely no scientific reason to believe in a God or in anything spiritual beyond the real world that we can see and measure with science. But that does not mean that those who do believe in some of those things can't be every bit as much a skeptic who wants people to understand solid scientific reasoning as a card-carrying atheist."

Well, almost all. One small, indomitable group of galling citizens continued to hold out against Hark! DaButt's considerable charm. This rebel group, who called themselves 'globbers' and feared only the Skype falling on their heads, were always criticizing the princess, claiming she was hysterical, unprofessional and generally insensitive. These accusations hurt the princess deeply. Many a night did she spend shedding inky tears into her crocodile skin pillow. It wasn't that she thought the criticisms were valid (how could they be? She was a Princess, with Chelpark Blue blood in her veins - she could do nothing wrong), nor that she was an insecure, vengeful little minx who couldn't take criticism. It was just that she felt these criticisms were an affront to the dignity of Enditivy, and therefore had to be punished.
One day, when Her Shrillness was out playing in the garden, she spotted a globber lurking in the shrubbery. Quick as a newsflash, she had the globber captured by her guards, and brought him before the High Council. When the High Council told her that no, she couldn't have his head cut off (only her cousin, the Red Queen, could use that head line), she proceeded to whine and pout until the poor globber agreed to issue a public apology for the things he'd said about her and promised never to say anything bad about her again. This made Hark! DaButt very happy because:
a) bringing a months old comment out of total obscurity and making it a source of renewed outrage was obviously the best way to silence criticism
b) going to the trouble of hauling a globber before the High Council for some throwaway comment was a sure way of saying that the globbers were inconsequential people to whom she, Hark! DaButt, paid no attention
c) wording the apology in proper legal terms would make it obvious to every one that the globber's apology was sincerely meant; no one could possibly imagine that she had forced it out of him
d) by striking out against one globber she had effectively silenced their entire community, who would never again dare to criticize her, because the prospect of having to issue an official apology if they were caught would really, really scare them
e) using the resources of her vast kingdom to pick on one poor defenseless globber was a classy act that was sure to make people admire her all the more
(Did I mention that Hark! DaButt was a little delusional?)
In any case, the globber apologised, the princess went back to blowing her own trumpet, and the kingdom of Enditivy moved on, like a slow dinosaur with Hark! DaButt as its pea-sized brain.

An overwhelming majority would not exist without the dear cell phones and tablets. Come to think about it, the games consoles too and the televisions, computers and laptops. We have become part of that social dependence upon technology and we eat and sleep, work and play around them. A single day would not pass without handing the favorite devices several times. fix phone screen singapore
The reasons your cell phones need repair
Everything has loopholes and tablets and cell phones could collapse, crack, be stolen and hacked too when it is wired up to the internet. Hopefully, such terrible things won't happen but one never knows. It is best to be prepared and one should ready to face all eventualities with all the mighty names and designs. Sometimes for flimsy reasons gadgets make a big fuss and stop working. Something coming loose is enough, but it creates panic all the same. Then we should take help from the professionals who work with every tablet brand under the sun and few secrets have escaped them. iphone repair singapore
Water damage, sound problems, devastated screens, buttons are not working if it is not touch screen, software issues, such common pitfalls keep happening all the time. Did you drop it somewhere on a hard surface? Some devices tolerate it well, but others cannot. The cute shells can simply be replaced but internal problems would need fixing and that is precisely our job. Maybe the battery is running out and needs replacement. iphone screen repair
Service providers do their best
Larger issues may require the replacement of certain parts and we will do that very quickly. All our work we claim to be prompt and efficient, timely and reasonable. Devices may be fancy filled, but our prices are quite down to earth as they should be in a quietly professional manner. Let the engineers take a look at the device if it is malfunctioning in some way. Neglecting the problem may make it worse. Sometimes the problem is not really obvious but it appears that something is not working properly. Costly gadgets particularly do need some maintenance to keep them in the best form. iphone battery repair
The device repair companies will not take too long to do the necessary, maybe in the customer presence especially if replacement parts are required and are available with us. If they have to be ordered the process may take longer of course. In any case, we would restore them to the pristine factory condition. We know too well from our experiences how close to the heart those little delicate devices are. They are powerful enough though and will go a long way and require a little pushing now and then just like all of us.

NEW YORK (AP) — The future of Twinkies is virtually assured.
Hostess Brands Inc. got final approval for its wind-down plans in bankruptcy court Thursday, setting the stage for its iconic snack cakes to find a second life with new owners — even as 18,000 jobs will be wiped out.
The company said in court that it's in talks with 110 potential buyers for its brands, which include CupCakes, Ding Dongs and Ho Hos. The suitors include at least five national retailers such as supermarkets, a financial adviser for Hostess said. The process has been "so fast and furious" Hostess wasn't able to make its planned calls to potential buyers, said Joshua Scherer of Perella Weinberg Partners.
"Not only are these buyers serious, but they are expecting to spend substantial sums," he said, noting that six of them had hired investment banks to help in the process.
The update on the sale process came as Hostess also received approval to give its top executives bonuses totaling up to $1.8 million for meeting certain budget goals during the liquidation. The company says the incentive pay is needed to retain the 19 corporate officers and "high-level managers" for the wind down process, which could take about a year.
Two of those executives would be eligible for additional rewards depending on how efficiently they carry out the liquidation. The compensation would be on top of their regular pay.
The bonuses do not include pay for CEO Gregory Rayburn, who was brought on as a restructuring expert earlier this year. Rayburn is being paid $125,000 a month.
Hostess was given interim approval for its wind-down last week, which gave the company the legal protection to immediately fire 15,000 union workers. The company said the terminations were necessary to free up workers to apply for unemployment benefits. About 3,200 employees are being retained to help in winding down operations, including 237 employees at the corporate level.
The bakers union, Hostess' second-largest union, has asked the judge to appoint an independent trustee to oversee the liquidation, saying that the current management "has been woefully unsuccessful in its reorganization attempts."
Hostess had already said last week that it was getting a flood of interest from potential buyers for its brands, which also include Devil Dogs and Wonder bread. The company has stressed it needs to move quickly to capitalize on the outpouring of nostalgia sparked by its liquidation.
"The longer these brands are off the shelves, the less they're going to be valued," Scherer said Thursday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York in White Plains, N.Y.
Last week, Scherer had noted that it was a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity" for buyers to snap up such well-known products without the debt and labor contracts that would come with the purchasing the entire company. Although Hostess sales have been declining over the years, they still clock in at between $2.3 billion and $2.4 billion a year.
Scherer also said a surprising number of potential buyers have expressed interest in most of its three dozen factories.
The company's demise came after years of management turmoil and turnover, with workers saying the company failed to invest in updating its products. In January, Hostess filed for its second Chapter 11 bankruptcy in less than a decade, citing steep costs associated with its unionized workforce.
Although Hostess was able to reach a new contract agreement with its largest union, the Teamsters, the bakers union rejected the terms and went on strike Nov. 9. Hostess announced its plans to liquidate a week later, saying the strike crippled its ability to maintain normal production.
In court Thursday, an attorney for Hostess noted that the company is no longer able to pay retiree benefits, which come to about $1.1 million a month. Hostess stopped contributing to its union pension plans more than a year ago.
Toward the end of the hearing, a man who said he'd worked for Hostess for 34 years stood to give his objections to the wind-down plan, saying creditors shouldn't be paid when the company hasn't been making its contributions to workers' pension funds.
"I have traveled pretty far to get here," he said, noting that many of his co-workers didn't know how to get to the hearing and speak for themselves. "I just wanted to be heard."

George H.W. Bush Shaves Head to Encourage Child
Former President George H.W. Bush has shaved his head to show solidarity for the sick child of a Secret Service agent.
A statement issued by a Bush spokesman Wednesday says the 89-year-old former president acted earlier this week at his summer home in Kennebunkport, Maine. That was after he saw members of his Secret Service detail with newly shaved heads to show support for the 2-year-old son of an agent. The child's undergoing treatment for leukemia and is losing his hair as a result.
The Bush spokesman identified the boy only as Patrick.
George and Barbara Bush lost their second child, 4-year-old Robin Bush, to leukemia almost 60 years ago.
The security detail has launched a website, www.patrickspals.org , to help with expenses associated with Patrick's treatment.

4.6. About the Test Suites
Most packages provide a test suite. Running the test suite for a newly built package is a good idea because it can provide a "sanity check" indicating that everything compiled correctly. A test suite that passes its set of checks usually proves that the package is functioning as the developer intended. It does not, however, guarantee that the package is totally bug free.
Some test suites are more important than others. For example, the test suites for the core toolchain packages—GCC, Binutils, and Glibc—are of the utmost importance due to their central role in a properly functioning system. The test suites for GCC and Glibc can take a very long time to complete, especially on slower hardware, but are strongly recommended.
Experience has shown that there is little to be gained from running the test suites in Chapter 5. There can be no escaping the fact that the host system always exerts some influence on the tests in that chapter, often causing inexplicable failures. Because the tools built in Chapter 5 are temporary and eventually discarded, we do not recommend running the test suites in Chapter 5 for the average reader. The instructions for running those test suites are provided for the benefit of testers and developers, but they are strictly optional.
A common issue with running the test suites for Binutils and GCC is
running out of pseudo terminals (PTYs). This can result in a high
number of failing tests. This may happen for several reasons, but the
most likely cause is that the host system does not have the
file system set up correctly.
This issue is discussed in greater detail at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org//lfs/faq.html#no-ptys.
Sometimes package test suites will fail, but for reasons which the developers are aware of and have deemed non-critical. Consult the logs located at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/build-logs/6.7/ to verify whether or not these failures are expected. This site is valid for all tests throughout this book.

keep them separate from the programs compiled in Chapter
6. The programs compiled here are temporary tools and will not be
a part of the final LFS system. By keeping these programs in a
separate directory, they can easily be discarded later after their
use. This also prevents these programs from ending up in the host
production directories (easy to do by accident in Chapter
Create the required directory by running the following as
mkdir -v $LFS/tools
The next step is to create a /tools
symlink on the host system. This will point to the newly-created
directory on the LFS partition. Run this command as root
as well:
ln -sv $LFS/tools /
The above command is correct. The ln command has a few syntactic
variations, so be sure to check info

before reporting what you may think is an
The created symlink enables the toolchain to be compiled so that it
always refers to /tools
, meaning that
the compiler, assembler, and linker will work both in this chapter
(when we are still using some tools from the host) and in the next
(when we are "chrooted" to the
LFS partition).
