Doc Brown's GCSE/IGCSE O Level KS4 science-CHEMISTRY Revision Notes
An INTRODUCTION and OVERVIEW of the PERIODIC TABLE (modern and historic)
What is the Periodic Table? What is a 'Group'? What is a 'Period'? The basic structure of the Periodic Table is described and explained. The position of the elements in the periodic table is related to their electronic structure. A brief history of the development of the concept of the Periodic Table is also given. The typical physical and chemical characteristics of metals, semi-metals and non-metals are discussed in the context of their position in the periodic table. There are links to more detailed notes for each group or series of elements and at the end links to quizzes and worksheets based on the Periodic Table.

1. Summary of the structure of the Periodic Table
1a. The basic structure of the Periodic Table
Only the top portion of the periodic table is shown above (full version)
The thick diagonal zig-zag black line shows the main division between metals on the left of the periodic table and non-metals on the right of the periodic table. However, note that the metallic elements and non-metallic elements adjacent to this zig-zag line can show a 'mixture' of properties.
See the notes 1. to 4. in the full Periodic Table at the end of this page.
1b. Electronic structure and the Periodic Table
Picture examples of these electron arrangements (atomic number)
Filling 1st shell, electron level 1 2 elements only in Period 1
Filling 2nd shell, electron level 2 to to 3 of the 8 elements of Period 2
Filling 3rd shell, electron level 3 to 3 of the 8 elements of Period 3
The first 2 elements of the 4th shell to Kr [188.8.131.52], start of Period 4

Note that these are TYPICAL characteristics of NON-METALS, but there are always exceptions!
Physical properties of non-metals
Chemical properties of non-metals
2c. The Properties of Semi-metals or Metalloids
A very tricky topic, only the basic idea should be dealt with at KS3/GCSE level.
Note in this table, I've included are more advanced numbering system for the groups (3 to 6 = 13 to 16)
3. Links to three selected Data-Graphs of selected physical properties of elements
Links to the first 'experimental' editions of these new web pages are below. They are of more use to Advanced Level students studying 'Periodicity', but they are a source of useful data. There are also summaries of data for Group 1 Alkali Metals, Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals, Group 7 Halogens, Group 0 Noble Gases and the 1st series of Transition Metals.
4. A brief Summary of some Groups & Series of elements of the Periodic Table
with LINKS to more detailed GCSE/IGCSE/O Level notes where necessary
only the briefest summary here, but enough to connect with ideas of how the periodic table developed and what the periodic table means as a system of classifying and arranging the elements
Group 1 Alkali MetalsGroup 1 The Alkali Metals [detailed GCSE/IGCSE notes] have low density (some float on water) eg lithium, sodium and potassium etc.
Group 2 Alkaline Earth Metals
Group 3 (Group 13 in modern notation)
Group 4 (Group 14 in modern notation)
Group 5 (Group 15 in modern notation)
Group 6 (Group 16 in modern notation)
Group 7 The Halogens (Group 17 in modern notation)
Group 0 The Noble Gases (Group 18 in modern notation)
The 1st Transition Metal Series (Scandium to zinc)
5. Snippets of the past and continuing history of the Periodic Table
A more advanced history for A level students
5a. The early classification of Antoine Lavoisier of 1789
5b. The 1829 work of Johann Döbereiner
5c. The work of John Newlands 1864
5d. Dmitri Mendeleev's Periodic Table of 1869
5e. The full modern version of the Periodic Table
6. Where do we get the elements from?
Oxygen atoms usually form 'stable' O2 oxygen molecules (also called dioxygen), BUT they can form an unstable molecule O3 ozone (also called trioxygen). The mass of the oxygen atoms in each of the molecules is mainly 16 (99.8%), and about 0.2% of two other stable isotopes of masses 17 and 18. Whatever isotope or isotopes make up the molecule, it doesn't affect the molecular structure or the respective chemistry of the O2 or O3 molecules.
However, what sometimes confuses the issue is the fact that oxygen O2 and ozone O3 are examples of allotropes.
Allotropes are defined as different forms of the same element in the same physical state.
They are usually chemically similar but always physically different in some way e.g.
It doesn't matter which isotopes make up the structure of any of an element's allotropes described above, so to summarise by one example ...
oxygen-16, 17 or 18 are isotopes of oxygen with different nuclear structures due to different numbers of neutrons,
and O2 and O3 are different molecular structures of the same element in the same physical state and are called allotropes irrespective of the isotopes that make up the molecules.

Comments about Superfeet Synergizer Blue Insole:
I would not use any other insole. I have grey for cycling shoes, blue for running and hiking shoes, and green for my daily work boots. Just throw away the manufacturer's generic insoles. Superfeet will provide you with so much more support. Bottom line for me is that, when I use Superfeet, I do not think about my feet. When I use other insoles, I have to think about them, because they hurt.

IT's 'love affair' with Windows XP ending, says survey
IT's 'love affair' with Windows XP ending, says survey
Admins divorce aging OS, hook up with sexier Windows 7 trophy
By Gregg Keizer
March 17, 2010 04:12 PM ET
Computerworld - Businesses are finally prying their hands from Windows XP as they warm to Windows 7, a research company said today.
"Over the years, IT has had a real love affair with XP," said Diane Hagglund, a senior analyst at Dimensional Research and the author of a poll that surveyed over 900 IT professionals in January. "It was just a great OS. It just worked for them. But that feeling is going away."
According to Hagglund, 60% of those polled said that they were more concerned about the cost and overhead of migrating to Windows 7 than they were about continuing to supporting the nearly-nine-year-old Windows XP. The remaining 40% felt the opposite, that they were more worried about holding XP's hand than migrating to Windows 7.
While the majority is still with XP on this, the trend is towards Windows 7, Hagglund noted. In April 2009, when Dimensional did a similar survey and asked the same question of IT administrators, 72% sided with XP, only 28% with Windows 7.
In other words, one out of every six IT professionals who last year would have taken XP over Windows 7 was won over by the new operating system in the intervening nine months.

The National Alliance for Family Caregiving (NAFC) and the AARP estimated that more than 65 million Americans were taking care of an elderly, chronically ill or disabled person in 2009. That means almost 30 percent of the U.S. population provides caregiving assistance to others.
FamilyCare keeps a b;pg. Take Care blog, where family caregivers can find information and support.
The blog is located at www.TakeCareblog.com, where readers can sign up to receive weekly news, tips and advice written specifically for family caregivers.This November, FamilyCare offers these suggestions for ways to recognize caregivers here in Hampton Roads:
- Give the caregiver a much-needed break by offering to sit for a few hours with the person they are caring for
- Prepare and deliver a meal or treat
- Invite the caregiver to join you for a cup of coffee
- Tidy up their yard
- Offer to pick up groceries or run an errand
- Call to see how they are doing
- Offer to listen or share your experiences as a caregiver
- Invite a caregiver to Thanksgiving dinner so he or she can relax and enjoy the holiday
- Mention National Family Caregivers Month on Facebook
- Say a kind word to caregivers in your workplace to let them know that you recognize the difficulty of balancing work and caregiving responsibilities
- Let them know how much they are appreciated—and that they are not alone!
FamilyCare helps its clients navigate the changes and challenges of aging while remaining in their own homes. For more information, visit www.forfamilycare.com or call (757) 399-9700. To access the Take Care blog for family caregivers, go to www.TakeCareblog.com

A Princess and Her Carriage Cake
When i started designing this cake, I was thinking of the meticulous Mom who ordered this cake for her pretty and only daughter Keala (I mistakenly wrote in the cake as Kayla, lols).
She wanted flowers and a disney princess…so this was the best I could make for her.

If fans could pick their team's schedules, I doubt any card-carrying Citizen of The Nation would choose to play the New England Patriots.
There was once a time when the Steelers owned the Pats. Of course, there was once a time when the Steelers won four Super Bowls in six years.
In their last 10 meetings, the Steelers are 3-7 against the Patriots, including two heartbreaking losses in the AFC Championship game, both of which were played in Pittsburgh.
So, it was with not a little trepidation on the part of Citizens of Steelers' Nation that the Mighty Black and Gold welcomed New England into Pittsburgh, potentially with home-field advantage in the playoffs on the line.
SNAFU – Situation Normal, All F'd UP
Tom Brady has been the bane of The Nations' existence since he came into the league in 2000. The Steelers have only beaten him once since he became the full time starter in New England.
The beginning of this game was more of the same. In fact, the middle and the end of this game were more of what we have seen in the past from Brady and the Pats.
The Pats possessed the ball for 9:33 of the first quarter and the Steelers' defense had few answers for them. As the Pats racked up 10 points.
The Steelers' offense sputtered, not scoring a single point on three possessions, including a three-and-out on their first possession.
The Steelers' pulled without a touchdown with 5:12 left in the half when Skippy Reed hit a chip-shot field goal from 22 yards. I'm not sure, but I think all that did was make the Patriots mad.
The Pats scored two unanswered touchdowns on a Brady pass to Rob Gronkowski and a Brady 3-yard rush. In between those scores, Skippy managed to miss a field goal from 26 yards.
Two Big Plays Spoil the Day
After spotting Brady and the Patriots a 23-3 lead, the Steelers finally woke up and played football.
Big Ben engineered a 7-play, 71 yard touchdown drive to close the gap to 23-10.
Then he gave up an interception to James Sanders who returned it for a touchdown. That restored the lead to 20 points. The pass was less than Roethlisberger's best as it was behind ARE and deflected into Sanders' waiting arms.
After a great return by Manny Sanders to the Steelers' 47-yard line, the Men of Steel scored quickly, taking only 1:48 to close within 13 points.
In desperation, the Steelers tried an onside kick, but it was recovered by the Pats. I'm sure Coach Tomlin was thinking that the Steelers' defense would be able to stop the Pats when they needed a three-and-out the most. I'm not sure why he would think that since they had not really stopped Tom Brady or Rob Gronkowski the entire game.
Five plays after the kickoff, the Pats had the game iced.
The Play that Changed the Game
On a third and five from the Pittsburgh 25-yard line, Brady found Gronkowski over the top for his third receiving touchdown of the game. Clearly, William Gay is confused on the play and lets Gronkowski get open behind him for an easy score.
It would be a game to remember for the Woodland High School (Churchill, PA) product. He finished with 72 yards on 5 catches and those three TDs.
The Steelers would get another touchdown and would have another chance to stop the Pats, but still allowed a field goal, which put the game out of reach.
With only 1:53 left in the game and a single timeout remaining, there was just too much of a deficit to overcome and the Pats took the win 39-26.
Here, courtesy of youtube, is Gronkowski's third, back-breaking, touchdown.

Metrics for Success
What is the return on your company's security investment?
Objective: To select a small set of security-related services and assess the potential for a return on expenses.
Results Sought: Demonstrate a measurable and beneficial contribution to the bottom line.
Strategy: In this example, we have selected four programs for which we can reliably estimate or validate expenses. We then worked with affected business units to estimate the financial impact of various incident-related scenarios. For the first three programs, the return figure is based on the likely consequence of incidents if they are allowed to proceed without security program intervention. In other words, assume the absence or failure of safeguards to prevent or mitigate the event. In the fourth program, investigations, return is based on the recoveries made for all cases started and ended in same year.
Where Is the Data? If your business is not estimating the potential for loss in a variety of events, you likely are in for bigger problems than are represented here. Having a solid grasp on the likelihood and financial implications of risk directly feeds your ability to gauge the level of protection you should provide. What's the trade off between the cost of protection and the likely consequence of a variety of security incidents?
Let's look at the examples in the graphic.
• Contingency Planning: A business unit owning a critical business process must be able to reliably estimate the financial impact of downtime; that is the key element of business continuity planning managed by business process owners. A highest criticality process requiring 0 downtime will have data on the expected impact of extended downtime on customer access,production, supply chain and other key measures. Managers need to have good data on the cost of loss of various processes on an hourly, daily or more extended basis. In this example, for a $1.2M expenditure, we know the positive results of our response to business interruption incidents in time and restoration to full functionality. We can flip that result and develop impact estimates of $3.6M if our business continuity measures failed to deliver.
• Information Security: Similarly, the uptime availability of various levels of information criticality is measured and tracked by the IT organization and often by the impacted business unit as well. Business units can estimate the impact of information compromise or loss of use internally or to customers. An example is found in compromise of customer lists, where the business has to provide fraud detection on each customer's desktop at $X per month for Y years.
• Protective Operations: We can postulate on the impact of penetration of a protected area containing various assets, as well as the potential legal consequences of such scenarios. For example, your legal department can obtain data to gauge the civil judgment history for negligent security or the failure of a protection system resulting in the loss of a highly valued asset. Here, we show a negative return of $5.7M to an expenditure of $3.4M, which requires some serious assessment of staffing or technology if this is a trend that has persisted over an extended period.
• Investigations: As noted, our incident history or post-mortems record the value of our losses after investigation costs,insurance and replacement minus the recoveries we are able to specifically assign to those incidents in a given year.
This chart can make a real impression on management's understanding of security's value if you develop and present it with careful thought and solid data. Incident post-mortems and a collaborative working relationship with business unit risk management will provide the support for your estimates of impact.

Had rapid and irregular heartbeat. Dr. diagnoised it as acid reflux. can this be true?
Had rapid and irregular heartbeat. Dr. diagnoised it as acid reflux. can this be true?
Hi Claudia,
If your stomach is churning, it could send a signal to the brain that your body is experiencing something it doesn't like and could cause the fast heart rate.
You can read about GERD here in the overview and you can check your symptoms here in the symptoms database. Once you have seen your doctor, if he prescribes medication for GERD, you can read about them here in the drugs database. You can also research treatments available and alternatives here in the treatments database.
Also, stress is a trigger you might have. Tracy Davenport had an article here about psychological stress and it's effect on GERD. Ladyisis had a posting located here, where she was dealing with many different issues, acid reflux and stress being two of them. You can read the advice that was given to her and her responses.
There are some things you can do to help the acid reflux and see if that in turn reduces the rapid heartbeat. Here are some tips that you might find helpful.
Acid Reflux Diet
I hope you find this helpful. Take care and stay in touch and let us know how you are doing!

But this time I'm gonna do it a little different. We're signing for four hours, from 11a-3p, so I'm gonna give away FOUR prints.
The first person to phrase me gets a print. Then at noon, it resets. And the first person to phrase me after that gets a print. And then at 1p, it resets again!
And so on. One print giveaway every hour. Just for my Tumblr peeps, because I loves you guys so.
Happy birthday to an outstanding photographer and a true homegirl, Laura Taylor. (flickr)
Caitred (by Ryan Schude)
The first person to say "the phrase that pays" to me at the LA Bookfest was none other than one of Reno's favorite daughters, Caitlin Randolph!
(You may recognize Caitlin as a model for several of Los Angeles' most esteemed photographers. The photo above by Schude is one of my faves of her.)
I'll be making a print for Caitlin of any photo of mine she picks. (As long as I didn't take it with a device that also doubles as a phone.)
You know I have another signing coming up this weekend…and you know I am going to do this again…and you know I won't be able to resist doing it bigger and better this time…
This righteous dude is Rams from Chicago. He rolled right up to me while I was signing at C2E2 and said the phrase that pays, "I AM A WETSHIRT!!!"
How baller is that. Wetshirts all the way in the Midwest. Signs and portents. And his name is short for Ramses!
As was my promise, I am hooking him up with a photo print (he chose this one). I think I'm gonna do it again this weekend…

CHICAGO: Come see me at C2E2, win an original photo print!
This weekend I am attending the droid-monikered C2E2, aka the Chicaco Comics and Entertainment Expo, aka the new comic convention in Chicago.
If you live in Chicago, or if you are going to be in town for the con, come say hi! I'll be signing at the Archaia booth in support of the Fraggle Rock comic, as well as appearing on their panels.
BUT WAIT: If you catch me at C2E2 and you are the first person to tell me "the phrase that pays" I will send you an original 8"x10" glossy print of any of my photos. Your choice! And I'm talking a real print from a photo lab like adults make, not some junk from the butt of my inkjet.
This is a SAM HUMPHRIES' SINGULAR POSSESSIVE APOSTROPHE BLOG EXCLUSIVE, just for my Tumblr peeps. That's how I do.
So come check me out at C2E2, get a free print. And "the phrase that pays" is…I AM A WETSHIRT!!!

Great LezBritain: "Candy Bar Girls" recap – Episode 5
Some of the Candy Bar girls begin to arrive, including Natalie, Kayley, Shoreditch Jo and Christina Novelli. Now considering they have obviously been told to be there because they're characters in this TV show, we're worried about Sam meeting her double/triple takings because the night is sparse of other lesbians. We're then introduced to Stuart, the evening's same-sex Salsa Supremo, which is frankly, a fabulous job title. As the ten or so lesbians salsa, we feel heart-warmed by Sam's endless optimism and ability to apply polish to a turd.
Sam [smiling]: It's great to see all the different personalities dancing, you've got some having a laugh, another two taking it quite seriously – but still having a laugh – and then the lovebirds really trying and getting it and loving it.
In East London, Rox is desperately trying to clean away her dirty socks, bean encrusted plates and mouldy old cups in time for Rachel to arrive back from Brazil.
Lee: It must be in the lesbian handbook that when your girlfriend is away you can just eat fish fingers and biscuits all week and wear the same t-shirt. It definitely says that in mine.
Rox heads to the airport to meet Rachel from her flight with a handmade, heart-edged sign. After every other passenger has gotten off the flight, picked up their luggage, arrived home and done a white wash, Rachel finally appears. They have a big old snog in the airport, which is lovely, then head home so happy together.
It was Rachel's birthday while she was in Brazil, so she has some presents to open from Rox. There is a slightly weird build up to the fact that it might be an engagement ring. It isn't. It's a trip to New York, which they are both squealy about.
The moment we've all been waiting for: Shoreditch Jo is back in Shoreditch. Jo tells her girlfriend that Shoreditch is where her heart and soul is.
Sarah: She looks so much happier in Shoreditch
Lee: Definitely. She doesn't belong in the North West.
The next scene is a long conversation between Jo and Alicia, but instead of boring you with the extended version, the gist is this: Jo doesn't like staying with mum and dad and can't wait to return to Shoreditch, East London. They leave a café where - we don't know how to tell you this without embarrassing everyone concerned – Jo leaps onto a small toy pony in the yard and does a double fist pump in the air. Her girlfriend finds this adorable, so who are we to judge. We're probably just uptight. We don't even really like Shoreditch.
Shabby and her friend Cheryl are in Soho wearing hats with a video camera in tow.
They've written a script with the idea of making some sort of audition or pilot for a TV idea they have, which is "following Shabby down the road to bohemia." The voiceover then tells how directionless Shabby is over pictures of Shabby jumping up and down and gurning with Dizzee Rascal's Bonkers in the background. She then reels off a list of jobs that she's had which includes criminologist, anthropologist and poetry writer. Excuse me?
Lee: I'm confused by this Shabby. She bears no resemblance to the Shabby we've met, who was very intelligent, eloquent and charming.
Sarah: It's very confusing.

I have just installed CFormsII. I activated Date Picker / Calander option.
The issue I am facing is that the Calander field allows my visitors to pick the dates that have already passed.
I wanted to know if there is an option of disabling the dates that have already passed, i.e. they should be able to select the dates in future.
Something like dates for events happening in future. New events can't be added in history. So I wish to disable the dates back in time.
Visitors should be able to selects only future dates.
Also, I will be adding 2 date fields, i.e. starting date and ending date. So, ending date should not be before starting date.
Just wanted to know if it is possible to configure above 2 scenarios.
Thank You!

any update on this from anyone please?

Specific date picker customization you'd either have to do through adjusting the core code in cforms or apply additional jQuery datePicker specific adjustments at run-time via your own JavaScript.

Hi Oliver
Am I missing something, do I need to activate something else too in order for it to work?
Thanks, the form is really cool! :)

1. Violet is dead. She hasn't left the house (been to school in WEEKS/visited mom/anything…)
-judging by the preview for next week I'd say she's in the walls
- she can command the ghosts in the house. I mean if she can do it and she's NOT dead than why the hell can't Ben tell Hayden to gtfo? (well not out of the house obviously)
- sandwhich. did Violet ever get that thing? No, because Moira was to busy making everyone wet.
2. I really am starting to not like Constance again. She's kind of crazy. idgaf. she's crazy… its the house, yo. so? still crazy. I had respect for her but now she's sort of letting the house win!!
- she can paint a fine creepy painting. She prolly did those paintings she commented on when Vivian was taking them off when they first met.
3. Hayden….. meh. Crazy bitch, too.
4. Demon baby.
- idk what to think about it. I mean as in previous plot leads, AHS is pretty predictable: Gimp suit identity, baby dady, Hayden, Tate, idk everything else everyone on Tumblr has predicted (unless you're all just really smart :]) (this can also apply to the Violet situation!!)
- Can the baby leave the house? Do you think he'd be all "when i leave the house I get sick!" and never leave? and then he'd be inside all his life and go crazy and grow up with those twins troy and whatever the 2nd one was and then he'd be a freak and kill everyone?? most likely…
- So I LOVE how this whole show is based on the house. All these emotions, situations, characters, drama, etc. is in this one house (with the exception of the HS/ Tate incident.) so how is the baby going to destroy the WHOLE world? Maybe the series will only go as far as like his childhood and him showing the slightest signs of insanity.
- Will the demon kill Ben's child? I mean because maybe he'd get his dad's genes and have feeble minded characteristics……
- Will anyone know its Tate's besides him and Constance?
5. Moira/Black Dahlia. wtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtf. omg.
6. Tate. Sort of lost interest in him after he slept with Vivian (who i find very beautiful but…) even though he has feelings for Violet? I mean he's cute and dorky and adorable in his mental instabilty, but I mean… gosh, man. what the fuck? Not cool…
- He seriously deserved to get hit by his mom even though it breaks my heart. I mean wtf was he thinking? fuck the house. He should know…
end discussion. comment please!!

In-Home Counseling for Seniors
Counseling and Support in the Comfort of Your Own Home
Who we are
Are you a senior struggling with stress, loss, or increasing emotional or physical difficulties? Are you a family member worried about an aging parent who is withdrawn, anxious, or is having a hard time coping? In-home
Counseling for Seniors can help.
Changes that come with advancing age may be hard to handle. Illness, loss of independence, the stress of caring for a loved one, and other issues can cause depression, anxiety and emotional turmoil. Many seniors and others with chronic illness are unable to access mental health treatment due to physical limitations, lack of transportation, or care-giving issues. Often, they may be unwilling to travel to a therapist's office for the support they need and deserve.
To eliminate these barriers, we offer in-home counseling services in the comfort and privacy of the individual's residence.
Deepening depression or anxiety can lead to isolation, panic, fear of leaving the house, and lack of interest in eating or caring for one's self. --All serious signs an individual needs assistance and support. In-Home Counseling for Seniors is there, providing that help and enabling the individual to regain their sense of self and well being.
Services are covered by Medicare Part B, and Medicare Supplemental Insurance. We help seniors and disabled adults living in Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, and McHenry Counties.

Getting Jonah Off The Boat
Jonah 1:1-17
Background: Jonah on board this ship is very symbolic of how we can allow things to get into our lives that don�t need to be there. It could be a sin, it could be harboring a bad feeling toward someone, it could be a wrong relationship, it could be allowing something in our lives that keeps us from moving forward with God. Here are some lessons on getting Jonah out of your boat.
I. Don�t let him board in the first place�v.3 these men didn�t realize who was getting on their ship. All the trouble that they were about to face could have been avoiding by not letting Jonah on board in the first place. Prevention is better than cure. So many times we allow people into our lives or things into our lives before we fully know if the Lord is involved in them coming into our lives.
II. Realize why the storms are in your life�v.10�these men did a personal examination of what was going wrong. They cried out to their Gods, then they confronted Jonah to see if he was the cause of their storm. Too many times people just keep riding through storms when they need to get rid of a Jonah. You will not have that perfect peace until those things that need to be removed are removed.
III. Don�t get rid of the wrong things�v.5 When we try to fix our problems and situations, we end up throwing out all the wrong things. I don�t know all they lost in their efforts here, but I do know this: Jonah was their problem, not the things they threw overboard.
IV. Don�t work to keep Jonah in your life�v13 It is amazing even after they discovered that Jonah was the problem, they worked hard to keep him aboard. If God tells you to get rid of something, get rid of it. You can do a million other things, but until you obey the voice of the Lord, there is no peace, there is no end to the storm.
V. When you get rid of your Jonah, your life will immediately get back on course. v.15�we find out an amazing thing here, as soon as they threw Jonah overboard, the sea calmed. It is true today, that as soon as you surrender it over to the Lord, your sea will calm.
Close: Today, throw Jonah overboard. An old hurt, a bad habit, a wrong relationship, even a wrong or negative attitude, get it out of your life today, so you can have the peace of God in your life anew.

Harvest Moon rising
London, England
By Toby Melville
"Moon, Daddy!" exclaimed my two year old daughter excitedly from the rear seat as I drove her back home from a day with the childminder. "Where's the moon?" I inquired as I concentrated on navigating through the evening rush hour on the busy roads of west London. "Over there: moon!" she repeated.
I knew it was a full and so-called Harvest Moon that night. I had a 500mm lens and decent enough 2 x converter in the trunk of the car as the every-ready back up emergency news set up. But the afternoon had been grotty and drizzly so not for the first time I had pretty much abandoned ideas for 'full moon' shots for another month.
But she was right: as I sat at the traffic lights in an interminable line, I could just catch a glimpse of the huge glowing orb peeping between clouds and houses. So, now the dilemma again of plenty a photographer when features and news just don't happen between pre-determined working hours or 'on-shift'. Continue home and then do the cherished fun evening routine of bedtime stories for Junior, followed by wee glass of wine and dinner? Or go moon chasing?
This time the picture hunt won. Mom was already home, and happy to do the bed routine for our daughter. I promised not to be long (heard that one before!), dropped off Little One, turned the car around, nipped down a couple of well used short cuts, all the while seeing the moon rising higher, darting between clouds and the wonderful dusk blue starting to turn blacker with the moon growing brighter and brighter. The race was on, and opportunities were fading fast! Plane lights flickered as they came into land ever nearer to the moon's path as I drove away from home, close to Heathrow airport, one of the world's busiest.
from India Insight:
Indian startup aims for the moon – and $30 million
Rahul Narayan, who describes himself as a serial entrepreneur, is the founder of Team Indus. It is the only Indian team in a race to the moon by privately funded groups competing for the largest international incentive prize of all time - the Google Lunar X Prize.
Google is offering $30 million in prizes to the first privately funded teams to safely land a robot on the Moon, including a grand prize and other bonus prizes.

Attempting to shoot the moon
By Luke MacGregor
With very little understanding of astronomy but with the aid of a phone app, I began a three evening attempt to capture the moon with the Olympic Rings. The rings have been hanging iconically on Tower Bridge for the London 2012 Olympic Games and it was suggested to me that a full moon should - at the right angle - cross through them.
Day One - Having planned to be in the "perfect" spot on London Bridge with a good view of the Olympic Rings further up river and using the app information, I waited for the moon to rise. However the horizon itself was a little cloudy. When the moon eventually showed itself about 10 minutes after the app's moonrise time it was off to the right hand side of the bridge. I hadn't taken into account that the moon wouldn't rise in a vertical line but would travel across the sky. So, by a combination of it appearing late through cloud and miscalculation, I was totally in the wrong place. I rushed carrying the tripod with a heavy 400mm lens attached and the rest of my camera gear hanging off my shoulders - running off the bridge, down several flights of steps, and to the path alongside the River Thames to try re-align the moon with the rings. However, the moon moves surprising quickly. I couldn't manage to run far or fast enough in time to get the image before the moon rose high, over and above the bridge.
from Photographers' Blog:
A star that shined for me
By Ueslei Marcelino
It's always a challenge to photograph nature, and the moon is certainly a part of that. Everyone at some time has looked at that giant orb shining in the sky.
In recent months I felt the urge to try my hand at photographing it. The simplest way is to record the moon up there alone, suspended in the dark. The hardest is to capture it with something in the foreground that can cause more visual impact.

Washington Extra – Consequential choice
Truth or Consequences?
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's message on Libya's ceasefire declaration was basically: she'll believe it when she sees it.
"We are going to be not responsive or impressed by words. We would have to see actions on the ground. And that is not yet at all clear," she said.
from Tales from the Trail:
Obama on the Moon: "been there" (done that)
The moon is old news as far as President Barack Obama is concerned.
Landing humans on asteroids and Mars and eventually living indefinitely in space is the future for the American people of Earth.
That's the vision of the president who was born in 1961 when President John F. Kennedy declared that the United States would send a man to the Moon.
from The Great Debate:
Time for the space vision thing
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Florida - My head is spinning as I sit here waiting for President Obama to do what should have been done when the White House rolled out its budget for NASA: do the vision thing.
I have faith in POTUS to deliver the goods and explain his revolutionary approach to space exploration.

Chandrayaan finds water ice on moon
After India's first lunar mission Chandrayaan - 1 found evidence of water on the moon's surface, scientists have now discovered more than 40 small craters with water ice on the moon.

The First Draft: What was the Nobel committee thinking?
Even before sunrise in Washington, tongues were wagging over the Norwegian Nobel Committee's choice of President Barack Obama to receive this year's Nobel Peace Prize. And the big question -- aside from whether a first-term president in his ninth month in office has done enough to deserve the award -- was, what was the committee thinking?
We know what they say they were thinking. Geir Lundestad, director of the Norwegian Nobel Institute, told ABC's "Good Morning America": "When we have a person whose ideals are so close to the ideals of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, we wanted to give whatever support we could to continued action in these fields."
from Pakistan: Now or Never?:
In Pakistan, not over the moon
By Zeeshan Haider
Pakistan is battling Taliban militants, trying to patch up relations with old rival India and struggling to revive a limping economy but another issue has preoccupied the country over recent days: the sighting of the moon that markes the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan.
A row erupted when the Eid al Fitr holiday that follows Ramadan was celebrated in several parts of North West Frontier Province (NWFP) on Sunday, a day ahead of the rest of the country. Many Pakistanis say that violated a spirit of harmony and unity that should mark one of the
most important events of the Islamic calender.

Later this morning, the St. Louis Cardinals will hold a press conference to announce agreement between the team and 3B Matt Carpenter. This is according to a tweet from Derrick Goold. The deal will secure Carpenter until he reaches 33 years of age.
The contract terms: six years, $52MM.
And here's what is scary for not only the other NL Central teams, but all of baseball…
Carpenter's 6-yr, $52M deal means #stlcards have him, Wainwright Yadier Holliday Craig Peralta under control thru '17 (Holliday opt in '17)
— Joel Sherman (@Joelsherman1) March 8, 2014
If you're a fan of another NL team, all you can say to that is "Yikes!"
Last season, Carpenter was moved off his customary position of third base to transition to second. His presence seemingly filled two purposes. One was to provide some stability at the position. The other was to afford the Cardinals another year as they groomed Kolten Wong. During the 2012 season, the Cardinals utilized five different players at second, but it was the trio of Daniel Descalso (66) and Skip Schumaker (50), and former first round draft pick Tyler Greene (40) that accounted for the bulk of the workload in 2012.
During 2013, Carpenter showed he could handle the offensive side as he led the majors in runs scored (126) and doubles (55). He tied Adrian Beltre for the most hits with 199. Carpentered finished 4th in the NL MVP voting, was selected to the All-Star Game, and collected the Silver Slugger for NL second basemen. He crafted a triple slash of .318/.392/.481 with 11 HR and 78 RBI while serving as the Cards primary leadoff hitter.
This season, Carpenter moves back to third base. His 2013 provided the Cards the leeway to deal David Freese to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. St. Louis nabbed Peter Bourjos and Randall Grichek in the deal. Wong now takes over at second.

Coal transportation
Coal is moved from the mine to its point of end use by a number of transportation modes. The way that coal is transported to where it will be used really depends on the distance to be covered. Because most coal in the world is burned in power plants to generate electricity, the distance between mine and power plant determines the method of transportation.
Unit trains
The unit train is the most common form of long distance coal transportation. A unit train is group of railcars that operate in a dedicated shuttle service between a coal mine and a power plant. A typical unit train consists of 10 to 120 railcars and 3 to 5 locomotives, with each railcar holding about 100 short tons of coal. Carefully coordinated loading and unloading terminals are necessary to minimize costs. A unit train making a round trip from mine to plant has a typical turnaround time of 72 hours, including a 4-hour loading and 10-hour unloading and servicing time per train.
In the 1990s, distributed power (DP) came into widespread use in the western United States. In this system a remotely controlled engine is put into the middle of a train, allowing greater traction and control of train motion. DP trains can consist of 135 cars and are the most efficient method of rail transportation of coal.
Barges on rivers and lakes play an important role in coal transport in the United States and Europe. Coal-carrying barges move in tows of fifteen to forty barges, pulled by a single towboat of 2,000 to 10,000 hp. A "jumbo"-size barge carries 1,800 tons of coal, so a large tow can move 72,000 tons of coal, as much as five unit trains. These large volumes result in significant economies of scale and lower costs. Barge rates can run (on a cost-per-mile or cost-per-kilometer basis) a quarter or less of rail rates. However, waterways often follow circuitous routes, resulting in slow delivery times.
Coal pipelines
Coal slurry pipelines
Coal slurry pipelines use a slurry of water and pulverized coal. The ratio of coal to water is about 1 to 1. The 1,580 megawatt Mohave Generating Station in Laughlin, Nevada has the longest coal slurry pipeline in the world at 273 miles (439 km). The pipeline carries about 5 million tons of coal annually from the Black Mesa Mine in the northeastern corner of Arizona. The coal removed from the mine is crushed to a diameter of around one millimeter, and is mixed with water in holding tanks with agitators, which keep the coal in suspension in the water. The pipeline consumes around a billion gallons of water annually. After three days the slurry reaches the end of the pipeline, at the Mohave power plant, where it is held in agitated tanks, for immediate use, and in drying ponds, for later use. Heated centrifuges are used to get the water out. As of 2006, the plant is shutdown because the coal and water supply terms are being renegotiated.
The large water and energy requirements for coal slurry pose a significant barrier to further deployment, especially in arid regions of Australia and the western United States.
Coal log pipelines
A new coal log pipeline technology mixes coal that has been mined, cleaned, and crushed, with a binding agent comprised of coal pitch, bitumen, or wax. The coal mixture is then tightly compressed and compacted as coal logs that are 5% to 10% thinner than the transportation pipeline. The logs are injected into a pipeline and pumped along using water. The pipeline can deliver the coal to coal-fired electric power stations or coal storage areas. The coal logs must then be crushed for use in fluidized bed, cyclone, or chain-grate stoker coal-burning boilers or pulverized for use in pulverized-coal combustors.
Proponents of the coal log technology claim that in addition to being more cost effective than coal slurry, the capsule pipeline is also more environmentally sound because the coal logs eliminate coal dust erosion of the pipe interior and erosion of coal fines by rain at the power plant storage site.
Highway trucks
Trucks haul coal over relatively short distances, typically at most about 100 miles (160 km) one-way or less. Coal-carrying vehicles are typically end-dump trucks with a carrying capacity of roughly 25 to 50 tons. Truck delivery is used extensively for small power plant sin the eastern United States.
Ocean transport
Global trade in coal increased from 498 Mt in 1990 to 917 Mt in 2007. Coal exports are expected to continue to rise and, therefore, the importance of ocean transport will increase. Ocean transport of coal requires a system of (1) transportation from the mine to the port, (2) coal-handling facilities at the export port, (3) ocean carrier networks with adequate number and size of ships, contractual obligations, management of the fleet, and route decisions, (4) coal-handling facilities at the importing port, and (5) transportation from the port to the customer.
Ships are commonly used for international transportation, in sizes ranging from:
- Handysize (40-45,000 dead weight tons (DWT), a term normally taken to mean a vessel of about 10-40,000 DWT.
- Panamax ( about 60-80,000 DWT). Technically, the maximum size vessel that can transit the Panama Canal - restriction of 32.2 M beam.
- Capesize vessels ( 80,000+ DWT). A vessel that is too large to transit the Panama Canal and thus has to sail via Cape of Good Hope from Pacific to Atlantic, and vice versa.

Office 2013 set to arrive tomorrow
By Nicole Kobie
Posted on 28 Jan 2013 at 17:46
Office 2013 is set to arrive tomorrow, after a series of tweets from Microsoft.
Microsoft had previously said its latest Office suite would arrive at the beginning of the year, and is pushing its arrival via a series of "Countdown to 365" messages - referencing its subscription version of Office, which is set for a major update alongside the release of Office 2013.
Office 2013 has been finished for some time - it reached RTM status in October, and some enterprise customers already have the software.
However, UK prices have yet to be officially revealed. A leak last week suggested UK customers will pay £110 for a copy of Office 2013 Home and Student, or £80 for a full-year subscription covering five PCs for the equivalent version of Office 365.
Any customers who has bought Office 2010 since October will receive the new edition for free, Microsoft has said.
I'm interested to know how they're going to break down the licenses by 'seats' and 'cores' in the business parlance.
5 seats would be nice, but I have 3 users and more than 5 devices. If they bring out an iPad version of Office, as rumoured, 5 'licenses' doesn't seem enough.
By c6ten on 28 Jan 2013
the 5 devices is only for the home user.
For businesses it is per user/machine pricing. But the business versions of Office 365 also include a cloud Exchange account and the top ones also include Sharepoint as well.
For the "smaller" plans, you have to, currently, provide your own Office desktop licences or use the Office web apps (the MS website doesn't show the updated plans yet), but the $20 per employee per month plan includes an Office licence.
By big_D on 29 Jan 2013
Obviously I'll have to see what they say on launch, the business licensing terms are worrying for consumers, as it suggests that every member of a household will have to have their own subscription. Is the cost of Office for three users (on a subscription plan) really going to triple overnight? That's a scary thought, and I hope I am proved wrong.
By c6ten on 29 Jan 2013
Great, I like the new Office, there are a number of features I'll use regularly as soon as our Office365 online service is also updated to 2013 versions. Unfortunately Microsoft is leaving everybody in the dark one that one. Sometime in 2013 is the stock answer when questioned on availability for businesses.
By adwoodrow on 29 Jan 2013
Home users or business users? Home users can install on up to 5 devices, others can be installed on the fly and will be automatically removed, when you close them.
Business users are on a one-to-one licence.
By big_D on 29 Jan 2013
And everyone in the house gets Skype minutes? There's something fishy about the 'device' limit, and I can't help thinking it's all tied in to one Windows Live ID. But I may be wrong. We won't know for sure until later.
By c6ten on 29 Jan 2013
UK Prices
Office 2013 home & Business = £219.99
Office 2013 Professional Plus = £389.99
By EddyOS_2K9 on 29 Jan 2013
Office 2013 Home & Student = £109.99
By EddyOS_2K9 on 29 Jan 2013
Or it's all here! http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/buy/compare-micr

Or it's all here! http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/buy/compare-micr
By EddyOS_2K9 on 29 Jan 2013
Business Prices
Although MS is being very slow I expect that subscribers to Office365 package E3 at £15 per month will get Office 2013 Professional Plus with a licence for 5 devices.
By adwoodrow on 29 Jan 2013
I had to go to wsj.com Personal technology column to get the gen on this.
Seems my objection was merely a quibble, and that it really is five devices and isn't tied into the user's ID. (Though who gets the SkyDrive upgrade could be controversial in some households.)
However, even the Office 365 Home Premium subscription amounts to a real-terms price increase for home users, and at a time when this market has more choices than ever, it seems a rather perverse time for Microsoft to raise their margins. Microsoft are hastening their demise as a consumer brand in my opinion, and consequently I expect discounting to start soon as retailers act.

Embraer 195 makes its world airshow debut here
The largest member of Embraer's E-Jet line of single-aisle airplanes is making its international airshow debut here in Paris, only a week after the Brazilian airframe builder landed a launch order for 14 from the UK's FlyBE. The Exeter-based low-fare, full-service carrier plans to replace its fleet of aging BAe 146 quadjets with the Brazilian twin, scheduled for delivery from August 2006 to November 2007. The $470 million contract also includes options for another 12 airplanes.
"This completes our fleet rationalization strategy commenced in 2003 and will give us the youngest fleet in the airline sector," said FlyBE chairman and managing director Jim French. "It also means that the business has addressed the strategic question of how to replace the 146 and provide a 10-year platform for profitable growth."
Configured in a high-density, 118-seat configuration, FlyBE's 195s seat 10 more passengers than the standard 108-seat layout with a 32-inch seat pitch as defined by Embraer.
The 195 flew for the first time last December 7, marking the start of a year-and-a-half-long certification campaign. Perhaps the least conspicuous of the family despite its big-brother status, the airplane until last week hadn't drawn a firm order since Switzerland's Crossair placed its launch order in 1999. Since assuming the role of Switzerland's flagcarrier in place of the defunct Swissair, the airline now known as Swiss International Air Lines has cut its firm order in half, to fifteen 195s and fifteen 70-seat 170s, and reduced its option total to 20. Although it holds nonrefundable deposits, Embraer finally stopped counting the orders in its annual production rate forecasts after Swiss delayed deliveries indefinitely.
Under Embraer's latest schedules, the 195 would gain certification by the second quarter of next year. With structural reinforcements recently introduced in the 190 and 195AR, the biggest Embraer jet will now fly a full passenger load as far as 2,100 nm, giving it enough range to fly from the East Coast of the U.S. to the Rocky Mountains.

While we fell a bit short of our target, we are incredibly appreciative of what we were able to raise and all of the support that made these workshops possible. The experience has been inspiring for both the instructors and students alike. With all of this positive feedback we're excited about the possibility of making this a long term project.
Stay tuned for the mini-soundtracks from our amazing students that we'll be posting in the next week or so!

moreThe Meade LX200 series of telescopes was introduced in 1992 and represented a giant step forward in technology for amateur astronomers - computer control. The LX200 series telescopes were an instant success and have outsold all other astronomical telescopes put together. Steady development has continued to the present day, and LX200s are available in a range of apertures from 8-inch through the giant 16-inch, which is widely installed in university astronomy departments and the smaller public observatories. For anyone considering buying a high-end Meade telescope, the book offers an experienced user's guide to what can actually be achieved with it. "So You Want a Meade LX Telescope" also provides detailed discussions about some of the many software packages available to aid optimizing and actually using the scope. The typical results are discussed so readers can know what to expect. Also reviewed are essential accessories such as CCD cameras and the latest Active Optics units. These extraordinary telescopes are capable of amazing results, but using them and setting them up can be a chore.That's why this book is essential reading for anyone who has bought or upgraded to an LX200 or its top-of-the-range companion, the RCS400 (later re-designated the LX400ACF). less
