QualityStocks would like to highlight Flexpoint Sensor Systems (OTCBB: FLXT), a leading developer of thin film sensing technology to many industries, including automotive, medical, industrial controls, and consumer products. Flexpoint's patented flexible sensor is a single layer Bend Sensor that accurately measures mechanical movement, air flow, water flow, and vibration. It has been tested to over 35 million cycles without failure and can be used as a range of motion sensor, or as a very durable switch in most harsh environments.
In the company's news yesterday,
Flexpoint Sensor Systems announced it is in discussions with one of the world's largest industrial firms regarding a security mat that uses Bend Sensors® to track and differentiate types of traffic flow in and out of buildings or venues.
Flexpoint said it is being represented by an experienced industry insider as it continues talks with the unnamed industrial firm.
The mat is equipped with a sensor that can differentiate between foot traffic and other moving objects, such as a dolly, and can be used for a variety of unique applications in a wide range of venues. The sensor can even determine weight measurements, such as if a person walking across the mat is carrying an unusually heavy load.
"We are excited by the prospect of entering yet another industry with our Bend Sensor technology," Flexpoint President Clark Mower stated in the press release. "From a security standpoint, there is considerable value in developing new technologies to track and monitor foot traffic. Companies have a keen interest in staying a step ahead of the curve, and our Bend Sensor technology provides a really unique solution with this security mat."

text: Summit brings together Hispanic leaders to address critical issues February 18, 2010 Las Vegas, NV—Nevada Senator Harry Reid today hosted Latino Summit 2010 in Las Vegas, bringing together community and national leaders to discuss issues of importance to Nevada's Hispanic community. The topics discussed included jobs and the economy, housing and immigration reform. The participants included representatives from the White House and U.S. Department of Labor and leaders from Nevada. Below are Reid's remarks as prepared for delivery: "As you know, Hispanics are the fastest-growing group in Nevada and throughout the nation. The Hispanic population is growing in this state by the tens of thousands every year, and by the millions across all fifty states. "But today, I want to talk to you about just four people. I want to talk to you about Ruth Bailey, about Gilberto Romero, about Jesús and about one young girl whose name I don't even know. "Ruth moved to Las Vegas from Puerto Rico 10 years ago. She's an industrial engineer by training and was working two jobs to support her two daughters. One of the jobs laid her off, and Ruth was among the unacceptably high number of unemployed Hispanics in our state. "She started cleaning houses to make ends meet. And just as she was about to give up hope, she landed a job created by the stimulus we passed early last year. HELP of Southern Nevada got a grant through our economic recovery program to make low-income homes more comfortable and more energy efficient. They needed people to do that important work, and Ruth's was one of the thousands of jobs the stimulus created in Nevada. "Now she does community outreach, especially in Hispanic neighborhoods. She's not only taking home a good paycheck, but she takes satisfaction from her worthwhile and fulfilling work – like making sure Hispanic senior citizens have working air conditioning when the temperatures climb toward the triple digits. "If we're going to get our economy back on track, we have to get the American people back to work. If we are going to spark recovery in the short term and nurture prosperity in the long term, we need to create the right conditions for Nevada businesses to hire more people like Ruth. "We're going to keep going. We're going to put more teachers in our children's classrooms, more police and firefighters on our families' streets. We're going to improve our roads and bridges and continue to make Nevada the nation's leader in clean energy. "Ruth says she gets thank-you letters that make her cry. Andwhen I hear stories like Ruth's, I, too, am filled with hope – and filled with the conviction that we cannot stop until every American who wants to work can find a good job. "The second story I want to share is about Gilberto. No state has felt the full force of the foreclosure crisis as intensely as ours. Each day, more families are losing their homes, their equity and their fair share of the American Dream. "When Gilberto's mortgage payments rose, he found a company that said it would modify his loan. That company asked for nearly $1,000 up front, and kept Gilberto waiting months and months for help. But it turns out he was only waiting for disaster. The company suddenly closed up shop, taking Gilberto's money with it. "Haven't hardworking Nevadans have lost enough in this storm? They don't need to give thousands of dollars to con artists who will leave them struggling with the same bad mortgage and even less money to pay it off. "That's why we passed laws last year that will protect families not only by punishing perpetrators, but it also by stopping the scams before they start. The programs we've created not only give the authorities the right tools to fight these con artists, but they give homeowners the ability to stand up for themselves and fight back, too. "I know we need to do more. I get thousands of calls from families trying to navigate the system – families frustrated just trying to get a real person on the phone when they call the bank. I've directed my staff to work with every one of those Nevadans to make sure they can fight back. "We're already making a difference, and we're going to keep moving forward. Just a few days ago, I had a very direct conversation with President Obama's Housing Secretary. And I got him to agree to send more full-time housing counselors to Nevada to help struggling homeowners keep their homes. "And as you prepare your taxes this year, I'm sure many of you will be taking advantage of the $8,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers. I'm prepared to keep going as long as companies prey on families like Gilberto's and so many others across Nevada – because your family or mine could be next. "The third story is about Jesús. I mentioned earlier how this community is the fastest-growing in America, and it is now the nation's largest minority. There are more than 47 million Hispanic Americans – which is the same number of Americans who cannot afford the rapidly rising costs of health insurance. That's some perspective – imagine if not a single Hispanic family had health care. Would we just turn our backs and say, too bad? "But reforming our broken health insurance system isn't just about those who have none. It's about those fortunate enough to cover their families today, but who live just one accident, one illness or one pink slip away from losing everything. It's about greedy insurance companies who drop your coverage when you need it the most, or refuse to cover you because of a pre-existing condition. "That's what happened to Jesús's family. Jesús, who owns a restaurant in Reno, had a baby girl a couple of years ago. His daughter was born with a cleft palate, which required surgery to fix. A few months later, he got a letter from his insurance company saying it wasn't going to cover his daughter's surgery. What was the insurance company's excuse? That his baby's cleft palate was a pre-existing condition. So it stuck Jesús with a $90,000 hospital bill. "That should not happen in America. It should not happen to families like Jesús's, who play by the rules, who pay their premiums and who just want the best for their children. The Hispanic community is most vulnerable to these kinds of abuses, and is more like to go uninsured than any other group. But as Jesús can tell you, even having insurance isn't always enough. "That's why we'll keep fighting to make health insurance more affordable and make health insurance companies more accountable. That's why I won't stop fighting until it's possible for every American to afford to live a healthy life, and impossible for health insurance companies to get in the way. "Finally, I want to talk about a young Hispanic student I met in Spring Valley. She came up to me and told me she was the best student in her class. But she knew all that hard work, all that dedication, all that effort wouldn't matter. She wouldn't be able to go to college because she was undocumented. "I don't know what happened to her. She never even told me her name. But I know she was locked out of an education she deserved, through no fault of her own. A bright student like that should have a shot at success. "That's why I'm committed to passing the DREAM Act. As we work toward a comprehensive approach to reforming our country's broken immigration policies, one thing we can do right away is ensure the next generation, though they may be undocumented through no fault of their own, can contribute to our economy and our society. "The DREAM Act will allow tens of thousands of students to pursue higher education or honorably serve their country. I know I can count on the people here in this room today – Nevada's Hispanic leaders – to stand with me and pressure opponents to do what's right when it comes to immigration reform. "These stories are about the Hispanic community, but these stories and these four Americans are no different from the challenges in every community, in every neighborhood, in every state. They're each about getting a fair shot at success, about fulfilling the promise that brought all of us to America. "That's why I convened this summit. We must have an open dialogue about how to help people like Ruth, Gilberto, Jesús, and that one young student. I want us to continue coming up with ideas to help the millions who hear their stories and think: That's my story, too." |

So when does this launch? Oh wait.... this has nothing to do with Nvidia does it? Are they advanced enough to run Crysis?
No. Toss a Blentec Total Blender into its atmosphere, and the blender will blend by the time it hits the surface.
Another Kepler planet? Nice. The other one was invisible I wouldn't like to live where gravity is x2.4 stronger.
You can't just "get used to" it. Without bionics, exoskeletons and other gimmicks it'd be really hard. When the gravity is x2.4 it's a big number. Let's take Jupiter. A helluva big thing. So Jupiter is 318 times heavier than Earth while Jovian surface gravity is 2.5 times stronger than Earth's gravity, hence its gravitational acceleration is about 25 m/s2. Same thing would be for Kepler-22b.
WHAAAAT!! There's no mention of mass. Gravity could actually be 5.76 times lower* than that on Earth, if mass was exactly the same, which granted, is not likely. Anyway without knowing the mass there's absolutely no way to tell the gravity. * Remember that gravity is proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Regarding Jupiter: its mass is 318 times the Earth, but it's radius is ~11 times bigger, that's why its surface gravity is ~2.5 times bigger. 318/11^2 = 2.6 <-- Math is not compltely correct since I rounded up too many numbers, but you get the idea.
Two points. The first is that at relativistic speeds the aging process is slowed, in the frame of the "stationary" Earth perspective. As such, he could have experienced less than a few years of travel, but be >600 years old. Silly relativity. The second, the name is qubit. Maybe he entangled two bodies on a quantum level, transferred his conscience, then dissolved the entanglement. Not really travel perse, but definitely long distance fun.
There is. Gravity bends time and space. By measuring time inside and outside the gravitational field it's possible to calculate it.
well some scientists say that it's even possible to calculate gravity without the Gravitational Constant
Aye, it's the same. Stronger gravity = bigger weight = faster g So if Kepler 22-b's g = Earth's g x 2.4 then human wouldn't feel "comfortable" there. Because all human body / "physics" (blood pressure, organs' positions etc) is designed for our local g. On that planet everything would fall x2.4 faster. Aka that planet has a different "game engine" lol. TBH I dunno do professional astronauts get trained for stronger gravity or only for microgravity.
It's in the habitable zone, yes. It's bigger than Earth, yes. But mass is not known, density is not known, so gravity could be more or less than ours. It's a 'super-earth' so it could possibly end up being a mini-neptune, not just a rocky planet with some water. Or it could be completely covered with water/ice. http://www.centauri-dreams.org/?p=20867

Evergreen Speedway is the oldest track on the circuit and was originally built as a horse-racing track. Located in Monroe, WA, Evergreen Speedway is only a short distance from Seattle. The Pacific Northwest fans are some of the most die-hard drift fans in the nation. The energy and excitement is often compared to that of Irwindale and the original "House of Drift." The event's headline moniker, "Throwdown," lives up to it's name as drivers push their vehicles to the limits of the track's banking and tight transitions through the course resulting in one of the most exciting action-packed events of the season.

Being Canadian - This is a vast land, full of contrasts and contradictions. Sometimes it is hard to define what it is to be Canadian, although I think most of us are proud that we are. Even moreso, we are proud of what we are not.

Frosty, your song title must always include the word from the previous song title, that is usually uderlined.
You can write your song title and then underline the word you want to underline for the next who will post, and so on..
So, I go with your song title:
Baby its cold outside (lets suppose you underline baby)
and post mine:
Merry Christmas Baby

New York Fashion Week seems to be injecting some life into the celebrity fashion game! It's been a busy time for all of us at Fashion Bomb Daily, but let's take a look at some of the fashions we missed this weekend.
Let's get into it:
Here's Serena Williams winning her fifth US Open! She cannot be stopped!
Rihanna ruined a perfectly pretty Zac Posen dress with a pair of clunky creepers at Opening Ceremony's first runway showing. I'm patiently waiting for the moment she gets rid of that mullet hairpiece. Hmm…
The Tronoto International Film Festival had no shortage of stylish celebs to keep things interesting. Lala and Carmelo Anthony got their fête on at the event's Fox Searchlight TIFF party. Marni Senofonte styled Ms. Anthony in saucy Isa Arfen separates and Pierre Hardy shoes. Cute!
Sandra Bullock just nailed it for the Toronto Film Festival premiere of 'Gravity' in this strapless Narciso Rodriguez number, paired with the obligatory pair of Loubies.
Saoirse Ronan chose a Mary Katrantzou Resort 2014 dress for the London premiere of 'Justin and the Nights of Valor.' The dress is perfect, but I'm not too keen on those Nicholas Kirkwood mesh booties with it.
Emilia Clarke was a stunner in this Vivienne Westwood piece at the Toronto Film Festival premiere of 'Dom Hemingway.' She paired her look with some sweet Charlotte Olympia sandals and storybook clutch. Lookin' good, Khaleesi!
The Peter Lindbergh Exhibition had more than its fair share of gorgeous attendees. Take Irina Shayk, for instance, looking like a queen in a white Balenciaga bralet and black trousers.
In addition to Milk Studios, the Peter Lindbergh exhibition was also a stop for Linda Evangelista Saturday night. The supermodel opted for a navy jumpsuit and colorblock leather jacket that evening. Obviously, perfect.
Of course coral looks ah-mazaing on Alek Wek's skin!
Queen Carine was also in attendance, sleek and chic as usual in all black.
Alessandra Ambrosio clung to her typical vixen aesthetic. If it ain't broke…
Leather was the look for Karolina Kurkova, who offset her Bellavance dress with Manolo Blahnik pumps.
Ashley Madekwe gave all sustenance at the ELLE Fashion Next event on Friday night.
Kerry Washington continued to slay at the Jason Wu afterparty at the Electric Room in the Dream Hotel. The look is a little too turned down for me, and I'm not a big fan of that Louis Vuitton clutch, but Kerry will never do any wrong in my eyes!
Mel B showed off her figure in a tomato red shoulder embellished bodycon dress and silver pointed toe pumps on a dinner date with Geri Halliwell. The dress is a little short but as they say: If you got it, flaunt it!
Angela Simmons was styled in a snakeskin jacket, white button down, and leather skirt for the Charlotte Ronson Spring 2014 show. Love the shoes, and I think the baseball cap is a fun extra.
Selena Gomez kept is sleek and chic in NYC this weekend, in a black leather tee, black pants, and a colorblocked MICHAEL Michael Kors satchel.
And there you have it! Who did it for you this weekend?
16 Responses to "Weekend Hot! or Hmm…: The 2013 Toronto International Film Festival, Rihanna, Ashley Madekwe, and More!"
Dont know whats going on with Rih, but she looks a mess.
Angela looks cute and I enjoyed Irina look as well minus the hair. -
I was thinking thw same thing about Rihanna
Lawd this post is filled with fabulousness…I simply can't take it. Loved everyone except for riri. Rihanna why would you ruin the gorgeousness, that is this dress. Girl you looked flawless until I got to those dreadful ass shoes. Those shoes should be burned and taken off the shelves so no on will EVER purchase them again. She's flaw free from the ankles up.
Ri looks hideous. Can't say I love how Lala or Sandra look either. Linda and Selena's looks are cute.
I think Rih may have been influenced by London style (in her shoe choice)…she's all about trying different things…can't fault her for that, though I detest the creepers AND that dress. #justmy2cents
Alek Wek!! Sooooo glad to see her a little on the scene again. High fashion model – veteran.
rihanna needs to stop. like really.
Angela looks cute & Irina looks perf. #lessismore
As goth is a key fall trend, RiRi definitely paid homage.
Really liked Ashley and Selena's looks. Mel B's dress, I agree it's a tad too short. I also agree that she's got it so she's flaunting it. Can't be mad at that. *SMILES*
hey @jihan isnt Irina Shayk wearing a balenciaga outfit??
I'm now bored with Rihanna's style, such a drag these days.
Lala, beautiful girl but can you please, please, please get a stylist who actually knows your body or fire your current one!
Those abs on Irina Shayk tho?! Beautiful
Ashley Madekwe – my fave! -
I like Angela's look.
Rihanna looks disturbing, such a cute gyal, what happened to her sense of style? She use to be that "Chick" (she was practically untouchable in the style department) now she's a chick that looks ridiculously retarded. Selena Gomez looks FAB! I am totally convinced that Irina Shayk fell straight out of heaven..her attire,body,face is simply perfection and Mel B's ensemble is atrocious! Her dress look likes something from a 2008 bebe catalog. Kerry Washington is such a fashion icon but i have to admit she can usually be a hit or miss and the look displayed above is a miss…i still love her, she's my #2 girl crush (Beyonce is number 1)
IDk who Emilia Clarke is but she is beautiful and I am in LOVE with her ensemble :)
Is it me or does kerry washington have TP stuck to her shoe?! 0_0
Hell noooooooooooooo what was riri thinking with that ugly outfit

The Nahuatl, Maya, Zapotec, Mixtec, Otomi, Totonac, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Mazahua, Mazateco, Huastec, Ch'oi, Chinantec, Purépecha, Mixe, Tlapanec, and Tarahumara are all indian peoples of Mexico with more than 100,000 members.
The Mayo, Zoque, Chontal Maya, Populuca, Chatino, Amuzgo, Tojolabal, Huichol, Tepehuan, Triqui, Ppoploca, Cora, Mame, Yaqui, Cuicateco, and Huave are all indian peoples of Mexico with less than 100,000, but more than 20,000 members.
The Tepehua, Kanjobal, Oaxacan Chontal, Pame, Chichimeca Jonaz, Guarijio, Chuj, Chocho, Tactuate, Ocuiltec, Pima Bajo, Jacaltec, Kekchi Lacandan Ixcatec, Seri, K'iche', Motochintleco, Kaqchikel, Paipai, Tohono O'odam, Cucapá, Kumiai, Kikapú, Chochimi, Ixil, Kiliwa and Aguacatec are all indian peoples of Mexico with less than 20,000 members.
This is not counting the many other indian peoples south of Mexico!
One nation of interest is the Coahuila Kikapú, an Algonquian-speaking tribe which was pushed out of their lands near Wisconsin down to Mexico by the illegal colonialist occupiers of indigenous lands. Now if a Kikapú visits their own land, the illegal colonialist occupiers of indigenous lands have the audacity to call the Kikapú "illegal aliens". This is the opposite of the facts though. Kikapú of Coahuila also are notable for having developed a whistling language as the Canary islanders and a few other cultures notably did.
Another nation of interest is the Tohono O'odam whose lands have been split by the unauthorized, illegal, and abominable structure which the nation-state calling itself the United States refers to as the "Fence" or "Border". This monstrosity and which was erected right through their lands, preventing many members of the tribe from being able to freely travel on their own lands in order to visit family and participate in ceremony. This is an abomination by the true illegal alien invaders and criminals who daily oppress us, in violation of international standards, law, and common decency. On the northern side of this "fence" the Tohono O'odam's "reservation" comprises 4,454 square miles, making it the third largest reservation in the nation state calling itself the United States, so they are hardly obscure.

Press Release 12 November 2007
Roma, 12 novembre 2007 - Exxon Mobil Corporation Chairman and Chief Executive, Rex Tillerson, today called for a renewed commitment by energy producing and consuming nations to open markets and international trade as the means to meet pressing global energy challenges.
During his Special Address to the 20th World Energy Congress in Rome on November 12, Tillerson said the international energy industry had a long history of advancing technology to develop new energy supplies -- and to deliver these to the consumer via an efficient and open international marketplace.
"If we are to build a more secure future for our generation and those that follow, we must renew our commitment to the values of international trade and open markets," Tillerson said.
"Unfortunately, current conditions and emerging challenges have led some to pursue isolationist or protectionist energy policies which could have severe consequences for the global economy and for global energy security over the longer term. "It is also important to recognize that, while all economic energy sources should be pursued to meet growing demand, fossil fuels -- oil, natural gas and coal -- will continue to play the predominant role well into this century due to their scale, reliability and affordability."
Tillerson told the Congress that industry and policymakers were also challenged by the need to supply growing global energy needs while at the same time addressing the risks of climate change.
"ExxonMobil is taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions on a wide range of fronts," Tillerson said.
As one example, steps taken by the company to improve energy efficiency at its facilities and investment in cogeneration since 1999 resulted in the avoidance of 12 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions last year alone. In addition, ExxonMobil is working with auto and engine makers on R&D programs that could yield fuel economy improvements in internal combustion engines by as much as 30 percent, with lower corresponding emissions.
"In a further development, we will soon be unveiling new separator films for lithium-ion batteries, with the potential to improve the energy efficiency and affordability of next generation hybrid and electric vehicles," Tillerson said. "Developed by ExxonMobil's Chemical Company, these new film technologies are expected to significantly enhance the power, safety and reliability of lithium-ion batteries, thereby helping speed the adoption of these smaller and lighter batteries into the next wave of lower-emission vehicles."
Tillerson said that, just as all economic energy sources would be needed to meet growing demand, so too would a wide range of technology options be required to reduce global emissions.
"The key to the innovation and creativity needed to address global energy challenges lies in free markets and strong international partnerships," he said.
"It is more important than ever today that industry, policymakers and civic leaders work together to support these important principles," Tillerson said.

From twigs and grasses to sheep's wool and horsehair, birds weave their world into their nests. The homes they leave behind thus provide clues about their lives and their environment, much as archaeological sites supply glimpses of human history.
The architectural diversity of nests has been used to untangle the complex genealogy of South American songbirds; remnants of prey found in bald eagle nests have revealed the birds' food habits; and carbon dating of feathers and droppings in ancient falcon nests has yielded evidence for the timing of ice-sheet retreats in Greenland. Ongoing research, including a paper published in the journal Science earlier this year, shows that birds use nest decor to compete for mates and communicate with one another more often than previously recognized.

text: Creampies Porn Videos became very popular since the turn of the 21st century. Before that, this type of movies wasn't present in pornography because it is considered that these videos promote unprotected sex. But when watching porn, people want to see something different, something that will stimulate their appetite. We all love something which is considered a little bit "dangerous" or "forbidden". It's more exciting. Creampies Porn Videos offer us exactly what we are looking for. A scene where a man ejaculates in his partner's anus or vagina will definitely turn you on. If the scene is followed by images with semen dripping from the anus, you won't be able to resist more. This is the reason why people love Creampies Porn Movies, because they offer hot sensations and extreme pleasure. In some Creampies Porn Movies, intercourse and visible internal ejaculation are followed by performers licking and sucking the ejaculate that has dripped from their bodies. What can be more arousing than this? Usually this scene is everyone's favorite, it will drive you crazy! If you think you're able to deal with this and ready to have the best moments of your life, watch the Free Creampies Porn Videos on HornyPharaoh.com! Our purpose is to see you satisfied and that's why we've selected the best videos in order to make sure you get the pleasure you deserve. Not to mention the fact that new Creampies Videos are added almost daily! Enjoy!

INK presented five speakers – Nikhil Velpanur, Karthik Naralasetty, Sachin Kukke, Sarath Champati and Charles Ma at Jain International Global Campus on the 20th April, 2012. The atmosphere of the session was exhilarating as students were mesmerized by the quality of talks presented to them.
The session started off with TED Fellow Nikhil Velpanur who set the mood on an all time high. He spoke about the journey he took which ultimately paved the way to his new project – Approves.it! His enthusiasm and ideas motivated the students and got them thinking about innovation and breaking the rules. Our second speaker was a young entrepreneur, Karthik Naralasetty, a dropout from Rutgers University. In 2011, he set up a project aimed at connecting people with thalassemia, a genetic blood disease, with potential blood donors through a social platform called Social Blood Org. Students were amazed by his work and applauded him for his efforts and humility to help others in need.
Our third speaker was Sachin Kukke, the winner of YouTube's 2012 Space Lab contest for the Asia Pacific region. Sachin explained how he won this competition and told the audience what it was like to spend time at NASA and experience zero gravity. Being only a first year student from BMSCE, the crowd was very impressed with his achievements at such a young age.
Towards the middle of the session, INK took a break from speakers to give students from Jain University an opportunity to share their ideas. INK recognized three students who won a competition called Triggering Thoughts, and two students actually got on stage and presented their ideas. One student advocated creating a conceptual digital database for degradation solutions for soil contaminated by pesticides. The other student wanted to create an online database to connect students looking for sponsorship for their education to potential sponsors.
The fourth speaker was Sarath Champati, a wildlife photographer. Sarath presented his talk with the great passion. He pitched his profession in a very picturesque manner and was undoubtedly a crowd favorite. Our final speaker was Bharatanatyam dancer Charles Ma. Charles was extremely enthusiastic and upbeat, connecting well with the audience and wowing the crowd with his new Bharatanatyam piece. His advice to follow your passion left a great impact on the audience.
The University was delighted to have us and the response to this event was overwhelming. At the end of the session, we asked students to leave comments on a speaker board that was just outside the auditorium. From reading the comments one could tell that the speakers did leave an impact on the students and INK had given the students an opportunity to be inspired!

Emerging consensus in ROKAs a new National Assembly is scheduled to open in June, South Koreans are watching how the two major parties ― the Saenuri Party and the Democratic United Party (DUP) ― will choose their presidential candidates for the upcoming December election. The next president will have to be influenced by a consensus among the people. Since the June democratic uprising of 1987, South Korea has achieved full-fledged democracy albeit with some occasional, arguable setbacks. The evolution of South Korean politics has gone through a persistent pattern of ideological confrontation between left and right and a regional divide between east and west. The general elections in April created a balanced distribution of seats between the ruling and opposition parties at the national legislature ― with 151 members for the Saenuri Party, 127 for the DUP, 13 for the Unified Progressive Party (UPP) and 5 for the Advanced Unification Party. Under this kind of power distribution and considering the current conditions of South Korea's political practices, the new president will be required to work with both the ruling and opposition parties. Interestingly enough, the people tend to vote much less out of ideological or regional motivations than before. They are more interested in an economy that could help their daily life, not an economy that shows growth through big businesses, and in issues that affect their lives more directly. As a result, policy platforms between the ruling and opposition parties are becoming increasingly similar to please the wishes of the people. Both camps are pursuing "economic democratization" in favor of small businesses against big corporations and promise increased welfare programs. The conservative Saenuri Party is trying to crawl closer to center from the right on the ideological spectrum, while the progressive DUP is inching toward the center from the left. Even the UPP, which has two contesting factions between the radical left that supports North Korea and the moderate left that supports the welfare of workers, is trying to get rid of its bad image. The pro-North Korean leftists also enjoy constitutional rights of political freedom, although some UPP members have a record of violating the controversial National Security Law. However, disclosures of illegal election activities by the radical leftist faction during the National Assembly election enraged the people who voted for UPP candidates in the hope that a unified effort among all opposition parties would contribute to a successful transfer of power in December. At this point, it is not clear how the DUP will cooperate with the UPP in the upcoming presidential election. In the meantime, a neutral to moderate segment of the people is rising. This emerging force will probably determine the next presidential election in the South, although recent polls show the Saenuri Party is clearly ahead of the opposition parties. Once the nomination of candidates is completed, it will likely be a new ball game. While the presidential campaign will be fought on the issues of how to provide a better quality of life, more jobs, effective price controls, better financial supervision, co-prosperity between big and small business, reduced educational costs and listening more to the people, North Korea still looms large as an campaign issue that people want the next administration to deal with more realistically. They are interested in peace and security. They support strong deterrence to North Korean provocation, but at the same time, they want improved relations with the North to reduce tension. Most of the people do not approve of the North Korean system and they are deeply concerned about the bad human rights situation there that they hear about more often nowadays. From a conservative perspective, the North is responsible for the current stalemate in inter-Korean relations, starting with the killing of a South Korean tourist at Mt. Geumgang, and later with the torpedoing of a South Korean Navy ship followed by the shelling of Yeonpyeong Island. This view claims that Lee's policy has taught the North a lesson that it cannot get away with its provocation without paying a due price. The progressives hold a different opinion. They believe the killing of the South Korean tourist was an accident, and the two deadly incidents in the West Sea were the result of the Lee administration's callous, hard-line North Korea policy that scrapped the accomplishments of the previous administrations. They go as far as to claim that the two tragic incidents were self-inflicted by wrong policy. To neutral, average people, it really does not matter whose fault it is. They are more interested in what should be done about the deteriorated relations between the two nations. And many on both sides ― including the two contending major parties ― believe that the next government should do better to deal with the North than the Lee government. Most in Seoul agree that first, no inter-Korean dialogue is likely to take place during the remainder of President Lee's term. Second, the North will not abandon its nuclear weapons in the foreseeable future; third, the North will continue to develop satellite rockets or missiles; fourth, redeployment of tactical American nuclear weapons is not desirable; and fifth, the South should play a more proactive role to resolve the North Korean issue and to chart the future of their own destiny. We don't know what exactly North Korea's intentions are when they say they are exercising their sovereign rights to launch satellites or when they say they have no plan to conduct a third nuclear test. But we know and are concerned about the possibility that their capabilities could be used for military purposes. These and more issues will be placed on the next president's agenda. What's your take?

Paul Ryan makes case for Romney in Iowa op-ed
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney's running mate Rep. Paul Ryan urged Iowan's to choose between two starkly different futures in an op-ed in the Des Moines Register.
Making the case for his running mate, Ryan wrote in the op-ed published Saturday that, "Another four years of anemic economic growth, of ever-higher debt and deficits, would guarantee a diminished future for our children."
"On Nov. 7, Iowa can wake up facing four more years like the last four years - or we can be well on our way back to prosperity, opportunity, and economic growth," wrote Ryan. "We hope to have your support, and we are asking for your vote. Together, we can get this done."
Ryan added that while Obama has doubled down on the failed policies of his first term, Romney "offers real change and real reforms for a real recovery."
The Republican ticket "will not duck the hard issues," Ryan wrote highlighting a number of campaign promises from utilizing energy resources to balancing the nation's budget.
"We will not make excuses. We will not kick the can down the road. From Day One, we will lead. We will not spend the next four years blaming others; we will take responsibility and clean up the mess in Washington."
The Des Moines Register announced a surprising endorsement of Romney in late October; marking the first time in 40 years Iowa's largest paper backed a Republican presidential candidate.
Ryan was scheduled to campaign in Ohio, Minnesota and Colorado on Sunday and will stump in the battleground states of Nevada, Colorado, Iowa, Ohio and his home state of Wisconsin on Monday.

Last reviewed by Faculty of Harvard Medical School June 27, 2013
In recent years, a succession of studies and news articles have come out that have turned conventional medical wisdom on its head. As a result, people are learning that many things their doctors have been teaching them are now considered wrong, or potentially wrong. Among the "retractions" and possible retractions are:
Examples of the conventional medical wisdom being turned on its head are not limited to cardiology. A major research trial recently showed that a common operation for arthritis of the knee, arthroscopy, turns out to be no more effective for providing relief than a "sham" operation in which patients only had tiny cuts made in their knee. The placebo effect accounted for all of the benefit that physicians and patients have been attributing to this operation. For physicians who have been dispensing advice about diet, hormone therapy, and how to treat atrial fibrillation, these recent findings are, well, a bit embarrassing. Doctors do not like to be wrong. Their patients, after all, assume that physicians are going to give them advice that is likely to be helpful. So how are these recent "exposés" good news? They show that we are living in an era of evidence-based medicine. That means that we are investing time, money, resources, and courage in performing research to evaluate our assumptions about what we believe to be good for patients. The fact is that much of what physicians recommend to patients has never been rigorously tested. The "scientific" era of medicine is really relatively brief and recent — only since the 1970s have researchers been performing large-scale randomized experiments to determine which therapies or testing strategies lead to the best outcomes for patients. Before then, physicians simply made their best guesses. Usually those guesses were right, but sometimes they have been wrong. Why might our assumptions be wrong? In some cases, we have taken leaps of faith — without taking into account the possibility that drugs or operations might have unanticipated effects. For example, we saw that estrogen lowered cholesterol in women, and we assumed that this would reduce heart disease risk. We didn't fully take into account the fact that estrogen can also increase a person's risk of blood clots. One small consolation: When it takes a large trial like the Women's Health Initiative to prove that a therapy is more harmful than helpful, that means that the danger to the patient is small. If the danger were large, it would become apparent with a much smaller number of patients. Thus, even though the risk from postmenopausal hormone therapy seems to exceed the benefits, the increase in risk to patients is really very small. The bottom line: Every cloud has a silver lining. The good news is that we are getting increasingly sophisticated about how to judge the real impacts of medical interventions, and increasingly disciplined about performing these evaluations. Thomas H. Lee, M.D., is the chief executive officer for Partners Community HealthCare Inc. He is a professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School.

Short list of new PS candidates to be interviewed | | Print | |
Written by Richard email@example.com | |||
Thursday, 15 December 2011 14:18 | |||
The interim government has created a short list of candidates who will be interviewed Jan. 4-6 for five new permanent secretary positions, and final selections are expected before the end of January. More than 30 applications were received, but government wouldn't identify the applicants. The nine current permanent secretaries could apply and compete with applicants from government and the private sector. Government CEO Martin Stanley said the Appointment Board that will consider candidates includes him, Carl Simmons of Tropical Shipping, Sandra Lightbourn of Scotiabank and new government CEO Patrick Boyle, who takes up office Jan. 3. They will be assisted by recruitment expert David Richards, who has assisted with a large number of public sector appointments in the U.K., including several permanent secretary competitions, Stanley said. Once the new secretaries are in place, they will help select 13 deputy secretaries. Stanley said a candidate brief will be published and advertised soon with a view to receiving applications by Jan. 8. The interim government decided to reduce the number of government ministries from nine to five with a corresponding reduction in the number of permanent secretaries. The intent is for permanent secretaries to assume a more strategic role and, with a bigger senior management team, be better positioned to tackle the big policy issues, according to the government. Each deputy secretary would have more autonomy and responsibility. Also up for reorganization are the country's 37 statutory boards, whose membership was renewed again Dec. 1 for three months. They will continue to be renewed periodically until the structures of the five new ministries under the new permanent secretaries are agreed. "When this is completed, decisions as to what statutory body functions would be better taken back into government will be finalised," said governor's spokesman Neil Smith.

A woman from Harmony, Minn. has confirmed that her fiance was one of the victims in Sunday's plane crash. Darla Reynolds said Monday that the man's name is Mike Fjetland, 51, a successful and prominent Minnesota businessman
Reynolds told The Los Alamos Monitor that the last text he sent to her was on Sunday morning. It said he was about to take off from the Los Alamos County Airport to fly to Chandler, Ariz.
She said they have a house in Stellar Airpark and she was going to join him later. With Fjetland was his longtime friend and business partner, Kevin Burrs of Corwith, Iowa.
Susan Burrs, Kevin's wife, later confirmed to the Los Alamos Monitor that crash authorities contacted her earlier about her husband.
"He was a great man, always willing to help everybody, and always did help everybody," Susan Burrs said. "He was called on quite a bit by his friends and family."
Susan Burrs also said Burrs was a good dad to his two sons. She added that he worked as a design engineer and that he too was looking forward to the trip with his best friend.

Is anyone familiar with the COP3/RCBCO-30 carrier operations package?

Last edited by Nels_Anderson; 02-26-2013 at 10:15 AM.
Yes I use it regularly , I think it's one of the most important addons available.
I created the freeware F-111 Pig HUD panel , and I included all the necessary entries in it's Panel cfg
for the RCBCO-30 carrier operations package , thus users only need to download RCBCO-30 and
place the gauges into FSX gauges folder and fly.
While it might seem strange to some , the F-111 was designed with strengthened U/C for carrier work,
and actually a version of it did carrier arrested landings and catapult take offs , according to the
book " Pentagon Paradox " the F-111 had a better ( lower ) wind over the deck speed than both the
F-4 Phantom and F-14 Tomcat.
The Carrier package functions as follows :
- Catapult launch is triggered by Park brake ON and applying full thrust.
- Arrested landing is triggered by the tailhook contacting any hardened surface.
It also includes a supersonic " con " vapor effect complete with the 'Boom" .
I can use it to land on roads and even land and take off the F-111 from longer hardened rooftops.

I finally got it all working except the zones. I have it working in global mode.
But to my knowledge the USN never accepted the F-111. It was considered too heavy.
Bob Macklin
Seattle, Wa.
If you look at your INI you will probably find it is either empty or only covers a small number of
aircraft carriers.
I included two INI's ( arrestor and Catapult zones ) in a folder in an older FSX version of the
F-111 Pig HUD package , it's file reference is fxpiggb4.zip ,
those INI's cover the zones for "Carriers 2006" and some other aircraft carriers.
To the best of my knowledge the INI's were primarily for the FS9 version of the
Carrier Operations Package , however the INI's do effect at least a display aspect of the FSX version.
If you cannot locate the INI's on the internet it might be worth a try downloading the above referenced
file just for the INI's.
While the USN missed out on a brilliant aircraft they did very well getting the fabulous Tomcat.
Have fun with your Aircraft carriers , they are an absolute delight to work on after a bit of practise.
The ini only had one carrier in San Diego and the test zone.
I was able to use it in the test zone.
But I have tried adding a couple more test zones but no luck with them.
Still HACKING on it!
Bob Macklin
Seattle, Wa
I opened the INI's in the Zip previously mentioned:-
CAT INI had 47 zones and more that are commented out.
ARREST INI had 22 zones.
I only use the 18 Carriers 2006 which are fixed non moving carriers scattered about the world , while they are
not of a high eye candy visual appearance their advantage is that they have radio NAVAIDS allowing the
use of ILS approach guidance , good for night landing or for a beginner to develop a visual perspective picture
of the carrier during approach to landing.
The modern carriers , such as Jarvior Nimitz and OZx East coast of Australia package do not have ILS ,and approachs rely on
the Meatball and judgement of perspective approach picture.
What Carrier package do you have loaded ?
I think that some clarification is required on the subject of Aircraft Carriers.
There are two different types of Carriers .
TYPE 1 : " Fixed " aircraft carriers , they are a carry over from FS9 ( FS 2004 ) .
It is these carriers that the INI's apply to , the INI contains the precise co ordinates of either
the Catapult or Arrestor zone , these co ordinates are read by an instrument installed by COP3/RCBCO-30
in the aircraft.
Fixed carriers are essentially a airport at sea and will appear as an airport in your FSX startup menu just as
you select a airport to fly from normally , they will also appear on a GPS unit or radars , and can have ILS.
" Carriers 2006 ' is a freewarepackage which is a " Fixed " carrier , it was made for FS9 but it works in FSX.
I think it's well worth having.
TYPE 2 : " Moving " carriers , These were introduced in FSX , Microsoft provided some in the simulator ,
but they are hard to find as they move about , a google search will help locate locations and movement
" Moving " carriers do not appear in the FSX airport listings , technically they are not airports , rather they are
AI that move at sea level , they will not appear on GPS units or radars , as AI objects a radar can be programmed
to display them , I gather that these radars have been developed but I have not used them yet.
Moving carriers cannot have ILS , perhaps someone might develop an ILS that can be attached to a moving AI sometime
in the future.
INI's have no use on moving carriers.
There are freeware " moving " aircraft carriers available , such as :
- The Nimitz by Jarvier , it's magnificent , while flying you can switch it on and set how far ahed of you that you desire
it , and when finished you can switch it off . It is possible to place it on rivers , lakes or dams , I placed one on a lake near
Kathmandu , the lake surface was 14,000' AMSL .
- OZx have a freeware package of ships that move about the whole of the Eastern seaboard of Australia and it has quite a few aircraft carriers in it and they are landable.
I know that this reply is a bit long , but there is one more thing.
AIRCRAFT : Your COP3/RCBCO-30 package provides the capability for any aircraft that has it installed to land on all the
above aircraft carriers.
SOME aircraft are now specifically made for FSX aircraft carriers , these have inbuilt modelling for Catapult shuttle
engagement and I believe they have specific Aircraft cfg enteries to enable carrier work. They also require a couple of
extra steps preparatory to launch.
I do have the "Carriers 206" package and have used it with the "Arrester Cables" package and it works.
So fare I have 2 airplanes setup with COP3. I have used COP3 in the provided test zone. Yesterday I installed the test zone data from "Arrester Cables" in the COP3 ini file. It worked. I expect the other zone data from "Arrester Cables" will work.
I'm not interested in moving carriers. When carriers have missions out they do not move far. They need to stay close to the launch point for recovery.
I have been learning how ro make better carriers using the available carriers.
Right now I am working on a program to generate the "Zones". Next will be a program to relocate a carrier. I can relocate a carrier with ADE but I want a simpler dialoge that does it in one step.

The following might be of use to you.
Each of the " Carriers 2006 " has an ICAO allocated to it , it's listed in the documentation.
they are :-
AC01, AC02, ......... up to ... AC18.
If you download the freeware " WAAS " instrument by Don Kuhn , available from the " fs2x " website and install
it in your aircraft , that instrument has instructions on how to enter a ICAO for a " Direct To " flight plan with your
keyboard , that will enable you to easily locate any of the 18 carriers from any range.
It's a very handy facility for finding an aircraft carrier in a vast expanse of sea .
A long time ago I took off from Lossiemouth and tried to locate a carrier out in the North sea , it's almost
impossible to locate them without some form of assistance.
Try it you will love it.
Hey guys im new to this but i downloaded 3.0000 but it did not do anything. How do you use the Carrier Ops package
