It doesn't matter if you're single, dating, or attached at the hip to your spouse/live-in partner(s)/[insert questionable pet name here] — Valentine's Day has always presented a veritable Hallmark-sponsored landmine field of ways to screw up, disappoint your loved ones, and/or generally feel terrible about yourself. Until now.
As per the best press release in my inbox this morning: Flaming Lips' frontman Wayne Coyne will be selling a limited-edition, 12-inch, 20th anniversary reissue of the band's deliciously scruffy first EP on a handful of select "Record Store Tour" dates on the East Coast next week, and — speaking of delicious — said EP comes packaged with a life-sized, anatomically correct, "hand-crafted, custom-made chocolate skull." But that's not all! The skull also contains "a special Gold Coin" that gains the bearer entry to any Flaming Lips show in the world. It's pretty logical, really. Willy Wonka + (even more) hallucinogens + the ability to just inform your marketing team that you want life-sized, edible skulls to be part of your thing now = Wayne Coyne.
Unfortunately, this little tour will only take our lovably demented hero through a handful of currently snowy cities and nowhere near SF, so if you want to get your hands on one of these bad boys, you'll need to call an East Coast-based friend and wheedle a bit. Tell them it's for a special someone. Because nothing says "I love you" like using the money you could have spent on a fancy dinner to ship anatomically correct, promotional chocolate body parts cross-country.
"Record Store Tour" dates to convince your friends to attend for you:
02-08 New York, NY - Other Music (11 a.m.)
02-08 Brooklyn, NY - Rough Trade (4 p.m.)
02-09 Boston, MA - Newbury Comics/Newbury St. Location (1 p.m.)
02-10 Philadelphia, PA - a.k.a music (5 p.m.)
02-11 Baltimore, MD - Sound Garden (5 p.m.)

Ethnic tensions in Africa continue to fuel scholarly interest in the study of ethnic relations, usually between two groups. In Uganda, Ankole in the southwest presents one such case of ethnic contestations with potential for violent conflict between the Iru and Hima. The Iru are cultivators and constitute the majority and the Hima are pastoralists and the minority. This paper traces the history of ethnic consciousness in Ankole in southwestern Uganda and is particularly interested in how the Iru and Hima distinguish themselves from each other and how a variety of status and occupational categories were re-shaped and re-directed by Ankole state builders.
Christopher Muhoozi is a lecturer in African History at the History Department, Makerere University in Kampala, Uganda. Christopher is presently a Visiting Scholar at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He works largely on the history of western Uganda and is particularly interested in how the Iru and Hima distinguish themselves from each other and the history of their distinctiveness.

Abraham Letter to Meissner re H-1B Count
Abraham Letter to Meissner re H-1B Count
Cite as "AILA InfoNet Doc. No. 99100657 (posted Oct. 6, 1999)"
October 5, 1999
The Honorable Doris Meissner
Immigration and Naturalization Service
425 Eye Street, NW
Washington, DC 20536
Dear Commissioner Meissner:
It has come to my attention that the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) is considering reducing the number of H1B visas available to high tech and other employers in FY 2000. The theory the INS would operate under to do this is the agency's belief that it issued visas in excess of the FY 1999 cap and, therefore, would compensate for that by, in effect, reducing the FY 2000 cap. Such an action would cause me grave concerns and I believe would exceed the legal authority of the Immigration and Naturalization Service.
First, given past INS counting procedures on H1B visas it is far more likely that the INS miscounted in a manner that deprived employers of available visas in FY 1999, rather than issued too many visas. In short, I don't believe it when I hear the agency tell Congress that now it is counting correctly. In FY 1996, in response to inquiries from industry, and in FY 1997, in response to my own inquiry, the INS went back and checked its H1B counting procedures and concluded in both instances that it had double?counted thousands of visas and therefore had not reached the H1B visa cap at times when the agency concluded that it had.
Moreover, this year the INS released a fact sheet on H1B visa usage that indicated the number of visas used by various companies. According to those companies, the INS inflated those firms' actual usage of H1B visas by at least two to four times each, again calling into question any conclusion by the INS that it has awarded an excess number of visas, rather than that it simply did not count visas correctly in the first place. It should be noted that earlier this year at least one service center reported that it was having a difficult time getting its contractor to classify only new cases for counting against the cap.
Considering that the INS slowed processing as early as April and stopped accepting new petitions for H1Bs in June of this year, it is hard to understand how it could have awarded too many visas, when it had many months to calibrate visa issuance. In a letter dated May 13, 1999, I questioned INS counting methodologies. I have yet to receive a reply to that letter.
Second, I do not believe the INS possesses the statutory authority to shift visas from one year to the next. If it does have that authority, then it would be just as logical for it to take visas not used in an earlier fiscal year, such as in FY 1994 or FY 1995, and use those numbers against the FY 1999 totals as it would be to take visas out of FY 2000 totals. But in any event, it does not appear that the agency has the statutory authority to do what it is proposing to do.
I would object to the INS unilaterally reducing the FY 2000 cap on H1B visas. Such action not only would lack statutory authority but would be based on what time and again has proven to be inaccurate counting methods utilized by the INS.

Triple IIIF FlipThe epic fking skateboarding manga/comic.
Hi gaiz.
At long last, I have started working on (Triple Flip!!!, or just call it IIIF or T3 or TF...lol.) again.
For those who are new to the comic, it's about skateboarding.
It was a hastle to upload both here and SmackJeeves without proper internet.
So it'll be uploaded solely on SJ now, to save time.
It left off on Page 34 five months ago in September. Continue from there. I uploaded 7 fresh pages (1 filler) and there are now 41 pages total, awesum rite?
I'll try to keep this updated, sorry I left off like that last time :C I've been really busy. And I'm busier than I've ever been right now.

Maan. I wish someone had of told me that lol.
Oh well.
PURE AWSOMNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the caricatures and the story of just plain little skater gang and the style is so unique!!!! AHHH I JUST LOVE IT!!!! I can only say one thing that puny little NO-skillz can find a little bit odd, some parts like when Momo strats riding the skate...well i kinda couldnt make out the picture at about first five min. BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS F*****G AMAIZING!!!! And the humor and the funny faces and everything!!!! And the sketchy feel is so WIN!!!! Oh and btw how did you do the action lines....you know those left-right that like represent motion lines? And what program did you use?
Thanks a lot man, glad you like it! I know it's a little confusing at first, I didn't know which direction to take it...not to mention I make up what happens next as I go.
I use Manga Studio 3 Debut to make this, so most of the action lines were also made using some of the preset filters.
Those extra special ones, like impacts and all that, I draw in myself.
HUZZAH!!!! GunZet's Max right?! Oh and GunLORD(thats what i will call you from now on) Is there any site where i could get that manga studio 3 thingy to download free(not legal i presume), Cuz my old peepole wont spend money on anything that can be buyed from the net...T.T
You shouldn't download uTorrent, and you definitely should torrent it from Pirate Bay, because that would be illegal and wrong... and illegal.
Oh of course not, and I would never post coded instructions on how you could get free programs illegally using the same method that I didn't use.

[1] Signs and symptoms usually begin between ages 30 and 50 and include blurred and/or distorted vision, which can progress to central vision loss over time.[2][3][1] It is caused by mutations in the PRPH2 or BEST1 genes; other unidentified genes may cause AVMD as well. It is thought to be inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, although not all individuals who inherit the mutated gene develop symptoms.[2][1]Adult-onset vitelliform macular dystrophy (AVMD) is a genetic eye disorder that can cause progressive vision loss. AVMD affects an area of the retina called the macula, which is responsible for sharp central vision. The condition causes a fatty yellow pigment to accumulate in cells underlying the macula, eventually damaging the cells.

Where can I find a crowd calendar for November & December 2012? I would LOVE to visit Walt Disney World around the holidays to see the decorations and go to the Christmas party, but I'd much rather go during times that are not peak.
I know not to go the week of or after Christmas. But I'm not sure when the best time before Christmas would be.

Team USA's Olympic camp hopefuls and their chances of playing in Sochi
By Allan Muir
In a perfect world, the 48 hopefuls who will attend Team USA's Olympic orientation camp in Arlington, Va. (Aug. 26-27) would get at least one session together on the ice. Maybe two.
But with insurance rates skyrocketing, and no one rushing to pick up the tab, the U.S. brain trust will have to settle for informational meetings and team-building exercises at the Kettler Capitals Iceplex in suburban Washington, D.C.
That won't whip up fan fervor the way, say, it would to watch Patrick Kane finish off a sweet saucer pass from Zach Parise, but this week's meetings are important nevertheless. The 25 players who make the roster, after all, must be prepared to deal with transportation, drug testing, family accommodations, ticket distribution and hundreds of other small details before they jet off to Sochi next February.
And even though no one at the gathering will either make or be cut from the squad, there is already plenty of speculation as to how the U.S. might shape its roster as it looks to improve on a silver-medal finish in Vancouver.
MUIR: Who are Yzerman's 10 locks for Team Canada? |Canada's invite list breakdown
Team USA has enviable depth in goal and plenty of speed, if not a lot of experience (or right-handed shots) on the blueline. Up front, there are some real questions. The Americans don't have the centers to match up with Canada, Russia or Sweden, and while there's plenty of depth on the wings, team management faces a real challenge in determining which players will be able to make the most of the big international ice.
Who might those players be? Here's a look at the camp roster and how Team USA stacks up:
• Craig Anderson (Senators): An alternate in 2010, his game has progressed to the point where he should challenge Jonathan Quick for playing time in Sochi. When at his best, Anderson gives off a Hasek-like aura of invulnerability. How do you keep him off the team?
• John Gibson (Ducks): Not one team in Vancouver decided or was forced to use its third-string netminder, so having Gibson tag along for practice duties is a low-risk move. He's already proven that he can win on the big ice, having backstopped the Americans to gold at the world Juniors last January, and then to a stunning bronze at the World Championships in May.
• Jimmy Howard (Red Wings): He's a solid performer who would do an admirable job in a pinch, but Team USA has better options.
• Ryan Miller (Sabres): There will be plenty of sentiment to reward Miller with a spot on the team because of his heroic efforts in 2010, but the way his game has deteriorated during the past couple of seasons, can he be trusted to step in? Don't think so.
• Jonathan Quick (Kings): With his 2012 Conn Smythe-winning performance still fresh in mind, Quick is the prohibitive favorite to win the starting job. He has that big-game ability that breeds confidence in his teammates and he's proven that he can carry a team, much like Miller did in Vancouver.
• Cory Schneider (Devils): He hasn't had the struggles of, say, a Marc-Andre Fleury, but Schneider didn't exactly distinguish himself in the playoffs last spring, either. Like Howard, you could throw him between the pipes and he'd be fine . . . but Team USA doesn't need to settle for fine.
• Zach Bogosian (jets): He's a kid with everything the Americans are looking for: size, speed, offensive touch and a nasty edge that makes him tough to play against. He's a right-handed shot, too, a quality that's in short supply on this team.
• Dustin Byfuglien (Jets): Team USA GM David Poile called Byfuglien a "wild card," which was a polite way of saying he deserves a look, but they aren't expecting much. He's too fat and too slow for the international ice.
• John Carlson (Capitals): His consistency might be an issue, but Carlson can play a shutdown game and he has an explosive offensive upside. He could play himself into in the mix.
• Dan DeKeyser (Red Wings): His skating and puck-moving ability made an immediate impact on the Detroit blue line, so he has the tools to play on the big ice. What he lacks is experience, and that makes him a long shot unless the U.S. goes with nine defensemen.
• Justin Faulk (Hurricanes): He's just 21, but Team USA's brass won't hold his youth against him. Faulk has shown deft skill at the last two World Championships, picking apart opposing defenses to score four goals and 14 points in 18 games. He knows how to take advantage of the big ice. It'll be a surprise if he doesn't make the cut.
• Cam Fowler (Ducks): He's a terrific skater and brings an undeniable ability to move the puck forward, but Fowler makes too many bad reads, turns the puck over too often, and lacks the muscle to win battles down low. He'll need a remarkable start to the NHL season if he's to crack the top six.
• Jake Gardiner (Maple Leafs): He proved he was ready for the bigger stage with a stunning performance in the playoffs last spring. The small sample size (six games) means he still has something to prove during the season's early months, but his aggressive, confident offensive play hints at a player who could be a difference-maker.
• Erik Johnson (Avalanche): He's been a good soldier through the years, but there are better players to choose from now.
• Jack Johnson (Blue Jackets): He's a different player when he puts on a Team USA jersey — smarter, tougher, heroic. Johnson's a lock for this squad and a good bet to wear the C.
• Seth Jones (Predators): It would be easy to say that Jones is here for the experience only, but it's never been wise to underestimate him. The wheels are there and so is the physical game. If he gets off to a good start with the Predators, he might fit in for the U.S. in a 7-8 role.
• Nick Leddy (Blackhawks): He earned the opportunity to attend camp but . . . no, he won't make the team.
• Paul Martin (Penguins): Ask anyone who watches Pittsburgh regularly and they're likely to tell you that Martin, not Norris Trophy finalist Kris Letang, was the team's best all-around defender last season. He'll be in Sochi.
• Ryan McDonagh (Rangers): One of those guys who'll do whatever it takes to get the win. He can start making travel plans for Sochi now.
• Brooks Orpik (Penguins): He's that relentlessly physical defenseman every coach in the NHL needs, but whose value is diminished by the big ice and the quicker play of international hockey. If the Americans choose to bring nine blueliners, he might be the extra body, with an eye on possible games against Team Canada.
• Kevin Shattenkirk (Blues): He has the ability to make the rapid transition from defense to offense that Team USA requires, and he thinks the game as quickly as he skates it. Being a right-handed shot further helps his case.
• Ryan Suter (Wild): Put it in ink: The Norris finalist will play 25 minutes per night as the anchor of the U.S. defense.
• Jacob Trouba (Jets): His presence at orientation is strictly an observation mission for young Trouba, who will be challenged to crack Winnipeg's roster this season.
• Keith Yandle (Coyotes): A veteran presence who can play heavy minutes, he's all but a lock.
• Justin Abdelkader (Red Wings): The speed. Oh, the speed. Abdelkader can fill a specific depth role, killing penalties, playing with energy and wreaking havoc on the forecheck. But is that reason enough to leave another, more offensively gifted player off the roster? Probably not.
• David Backes (Blues): St. Louis will probably play him on the wing this season, but with Team USA starved for talent up the middle, Backes is almost sure to be used as either the third- or fourth-line pivot. They need his size and full-on commitment.
• Beau Bennett (Penguins): He struggled to secure a full-time job in Pittsburgh during his rookie season, so a roster spot for Sochi is not happening. His turn is still years down the road.
• Nick Bjugstad (Panthers): The big winger has great potential, but this camp is strictly a learning opportunity.
• Dustin Brown (Kings): Great leadership, physical play and a 25-goal touch. Brown is one of those rare players who could impact the game from any line.
• Ryan Callahan (Rangers): He has great chemistry with invitee Derek Stepan and a switch that's always set to high speed. He's miserable to play against.
• Alex Galchenyuk (Canadiens): He's still wet behind the ears, but Galchenyuk has blistering speed and the kind of creativity that could spark a struggling offense. It says here that he'll make the team, and he'll be an impact player before the tournament is over.
• Patrick Kane (Blackhawks): Few players will make better use of that extra 15 feet of ice than Kane. He'll be the team's offensive catalyst.
• Ryan Kesler (Canucks): It shows how shallow the talent pool is at center if Kesler is viewed as a first-line option. If he ever was that guy, he's not anymore. And his health issues have to be a real concern for the U.S. brass.
• Phil Kessel (Maple Leafs): Like Kane, he has the speed and shiftiness to make the most of the wider rink.
• Trevor Lewis (Kings): The gritty winger plays the game with passion, but it's tough to see him breaking through the log jam on the wings.
• Kyle Okposo (Islanders): After three lackluster seasons, it's hard to imagine why he was invited, and tougher still to imagine the misfortunes that would have to befall this group for Okposo to have a chance to make the team.
• T.J. Oshie (Blues): The Americans seem to have four right wingers who bring more to the table than Oshie, but there's a good chance they'll shoehorn him in just the same. He has great speed and is no pleasure to play against. He's also versatile enough to take one of the two extra forward slots.
• Max Pacioretty (Canadiens): Montreal's top scorer has the big body and breakaway speed that's needed to fill a top-six role.
• Kyle Palmieri (Ducks): Another sightseer with his eyes set on 2018.
• Zach Parise (Wild): A good bet to line up opposite Kane, Parise will bring some edge (and some goal mouth presence) to the first line.
• Joe Pavelski (Sharks): Versatile forward can skate center or wing and adapt his style from a shutdown role to an offensive spark plug. Brian Burke called him the Swiss Army knife of Team USA in 2010, and he'll be just as important to this team.
• Bobby Ryan (Senators): A reliable 30-goal scorer, he has the game-breaking ability the U.S. will need.
• Brandon Saad (Blackhawks): Good kid, big body, plays the game the right way, but who do you leave home to get him on the roster?
• Craig Smith (Predators): He was lousy with Nashville last season, but no one's forgotten how well he played at the 2011 worlds. The big ice brings out the best in him.
• Paul Stastny (Avalanche): He salvaged a lousy season in Denver with a Team USA-high seven goals and 15 points in 10 games at the worlds last spring. With a dearth of talent at center, he's a sure thing.
• Derek Stepan (Rangers): A crafty playmaker with high-end speed and some finishing touch, he's a lock to make the team. The only question is how to use him. Stepan lacks the size and strength to be an ideal No. 1 center, but Team USA might be looking in his direction.
• James van Riemsdyk (Maple Leafs): A positive player whose energy rubs off on others, JVR can beat you with a heavy shot off the rush or by crashing the net and burying the trash.
• Blake Wheeler (Jets): The big-bodied winger, who's coming off a career offensive year, appears to be a long shot to make the team because of the U.S.'s depth on the right. If Kane moves to center — or injuries strike — he's a viable option for the first three lines.
Preliminary roster
First line: Zach Parise–Derek Stepan–Patrick Kane
Second line: Bobby Ryan–Paul Stastny–Phil Kessel
Third line: Max Pacioretty–Joe Pavelski–Ryan Callahan
Fourth line: James van Riemsdyk–David Backes–Dustin Brown
Extra forwards: Alex Galchenyuk, T.J. Oshie

At the heart of Tahoe lies a sapphire-blue lake so deep that it remains unfrozen all year-round. The breathtaking surrounding scenery is dotted with over a dozen separate ski resorts and countless different ski areas. Its high average altitude helps to make this one of the most snow-sure resorts in the world, providing a beautiful powder covering over this huge ski and snowboard terrain. For non-skiers, the range of alternative activities is stunning. South Lake Tahoe stretches across the California state line into Nevada and as a result, casinos and nightclubs vie for your attention into the small hours. Childcare facilities are excellent here, too, and those looking for a relaxed ski holiday will appreciate the atmosphere of the resorts in North Lake Tahoe. Just about every aspect of a skiing holiday is perfect in Lake Tahoe, making this an excellent choice for a winter holiday.
*Based on Heavenly Ski Resort in South Lake Tahoe
The extent and variety of the beginner terrain across Tahoe is superb. Squaw Valley, for example, has long, gentle beginner slopes that are both sheltered and snow-sure. Sierra-at-Tahoe's excellent nursery slopes also warrant a mention, but beginners will be quite comfortable at any of the Tahoe resorts as the tuition is consistently good across all the resorts.
The wealth of terrain means that intermediates will find plenty of terrain wherever they are. Heavenly is a particular favourite. Piste grooming and signposting is excellent here, allowing for days of peaceful, enjoyable cruising.
Alpine Meadows has a terrain park, half-pipe and super-pipe to challenge advanced snowboarders. The off-piste skiing and snowboarding in Squaw Valley and Kirkwood are thrilling. Steep slopes, chutes and big mogul fields all offer stiff challenges. A guide is recommended to show you the best and most challenging aspects of the Lake Tahoe region.
Tahoe is a great family ski destination because it is so comprehensive. Heavenly resort has a great range of nursery and green pistes. Heavenly and Sierra-at-Tahoe are the only resorts that offer state-licensed childcare for those under 2 years of age. Other resorts offer care for children aged 2 and older, but toddlers must be toilet-trained and their birth certificate is required for proof of age.
Lake Tahoe itself sits at an impressive 1890 metres above sea level. The surrounding mountains tower above it. Some resorts boast summits over 3000 metres and the rest easily top 2500 metres. Skiing and snowboarding at high altitudes is superb here.
Lake Tahoe was one of the first resorts to embrace snowmaking facilities, and now make serious use of it. Diamond Peak has snowmaking facilities on 75% of its runs. Combined with an excellent snowfall average, this helps the season here stretch comfortably from mid-November to mid-May. Some resorts, however, boast opening much earlier and closing much later. Lake Tahoe is certainly worth considering for a last minute, out-of-season, ski holiday.
Lake Tahoe offers so much variety in its après ski. Pretty much anything, from quiet family holidays to partying round the clock is possible. Generally speaking, you will find lively, vibrant après ski in South Lake Tahoe and a laid-back, low-key atmosphere on the North side. The California and Nevada state line cuts right through the middle of Heavenly resort - providing a huge contrast within walking distance. The quiet, ski focused resort of Sugar Bowl is perfect for serious, experienced skiers. No matter where you stay great entertainment is at worst a short drive away. The world-class casinos, live music and stage shows of Reno are enough for even the most tireless of party animals.

Fundamentals: Detecting neutrinos via
Hopes are high that the second-largest manmade
structure ever built will allow researchers to study the
astrophysical neutrino
Plans are in the works to build the
second-largest manmade structure ever in order to study
astrophysical neutrinos and other subatomic particles.
It's called "KM3NeT" and will consist
of an array of super-sensitive detectors anchored 3,200 feet below
the Mediterranean Sea.
Funds are still being secured for this project,
so plans are still in the development stages. In the meantime, here
are some things to know that'll help you follow the
Astrophysical neutrino background
Neutrinos are particles formed in different
types of radioactive decay, including in the sun, nuclear reactors,
and cosmic ray collisions. As the name suggests, they are neutral.
This means they can move through matter practically unimpeded. It
also means they lack charge, so they're immune to
inhibitors like electromagnetic forces.
The goal of KM3NeT is to detect a specific,
rather elusive group of neutrinos known as astrophysical neutrinos.
They originate in deep space and are generated from some of the
Universe's most powerful places, including gamma ray
bursts, black holes, and cosmic collisions.
Since they lack charge, they can travel through
space unimpeded by magnetic forces from the sun or planets.
Researchers are hoping that in capturing them once
they've entered our planet, they will help answer several
questions we have about the cosmos; questions like the origin of
the cosmic ray (a proton flux that rains down on Earth.) Right now,
these rays come from an unknown source because they don't
point back to their original sources (unlike neutrinos, protons are
subject to a variety of inhibitors.) Observing the interactions of
the astrophysical neutrinos that come with these rays can help
researchers reconstruct their path.
How do you study the astrophysical neutrino
when it doesn't interact with anything?
In a summary probably too short to do the
research any justice, it was discovered after years of studying the
neutrino that it is, in fact, possible to force the particle to
interact with matter, albeit very weakly. All you have to do is
place the neutrino in a detector with a pressure of, approximately
speaking, 2.2 billion lbs.
This brings us to why the KM3NeT is being
submerged so deep underwater. In addition to providing the pressure
necessary to observe an astrophysical neutrino reaction, the
thousands of feet of surrounding water will act as a particle
filter, minimizing the chance of stray particle detection.
More specifically, the Mediterranean Sea has the
right depth and provides water of excellent optical properties. It
also has an ideal shore-based infrastructure for on-shore data
processing (as opposed to, say, gathering data out in the middle of
the ocean.)
Project concept
The basis of thought for the KM3NeT is this:
When the astrophysical neutrino travels through the water and
enters the KM3NeT's space, due to the speed at which it
is traveling, coupled with the significant pressure it will be
under, it will provoke an ever-so-slight response in a charged
water particle, breaking through the nucleus of its atom to produce
an outgoing particle called a muon. When the muon is released, it
radiates a cone of light.
To capture this momentary interaction, commonly
referred to as "Cherenkov radiation," KM3NeT
will be made up of a cubed array of optical modules that point
towards the sea floor (this limits the chance that the detectors
might pick up stray atmospheric neutrinos.) Each module has an
angular resolution for muon events greater than 0.1 degree, for
neutrino energies that exceed 10 TeV and have an energy threshold
of 100 GeV. Layman's translation: nothing's
getting past it.
Some basic background on the KM3NeT
In case you've been wondering, the
oddly titled KM3NeT is actually an acronym. It stands for
"Cubic Kilometer Neutrino Telescope" because
the project will cover more than three cubic kilometers of prime
Mediterranean Sea floor real estate. Presently, there are 40
institutes and universities from ten European countries involved in
this project.
And while the infrastructure's primary
purpose will be to house an underwater neutrino observatory, it
will also be home to an oceanography observatory.
The numbers
The aforementioned optical modules are designed
to withstand six atmospheres of pressure or, approximately
speaking, the pressure of being 20,000 feet below sea level. Each
one is a 17-inch sphere that holds 31 3-inch photomultiplier tubes,
and is surrounded by a light concentrator ring to increase the
total light collection area. They also include calibration sensors
like acoustic piezo sensors, compass and tilt meters, and
nanobeacons, for additional research.
Modules will be mounted onto 20-foot-long bars,
and 40 bars will be connected to each unit. There'll be
about 100 of these unit towers per cubic kilometer of water, and
the whole network will be connected by way of a series of stainless
steel tubes that contain within them optical fibers linked to
shore-based data stations.
The towers are presently being designed to stand
taller than the 2,723-foot Burj Khalifa tower in Dubai (the tallest
building in the world). When all's said and done, KM3NeT
will be the second-largest manmade structure ever, behind only the
Great Wall of China. Unfortunately, it will never be seen due to
its unique underwater positioning.
Not the first go-round
KM3NeT is the latest attempt in a long line of
super-big, super-sensitive detectors. The one closest in comparison
to it is the IceCube Neutrino Observatory, a neutrino telescope
constructed at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station in Antarctica.
Completed less than a year ago, its first-year data won't
be available for the next few months.
The IceCube is similar to KM3NeT in that it uses
the Earth as a filter to block out background radiation and find
neutrinos. It also uses a deep, dense medium to hunt for Cherenkov
light. But that's where the similarities end. You see,
the IceCube's a lot smaller: just one cubic kilometer to
the KM3NeT's three. Also, the IceCube looks to the
northern sky, while KM3NeT is pointed south, incidentally in the
direction of the galactic center as seen from Earth (more on that
The IceCube is currently the largest detector in
the world, but researches realized that when you are looking for
something with as little flux as an astrophysical neutrino, you
need as much volume as possible. That's why the KM3NeT is
going to be so much bigger. And thanks to the continued
advancements made in technology, it will also be much more
sensitive than the IceCube.
Once KM3NeT has completed construction, these
two massive detectors can actually work together. They will allow
researchers to fully view the sky and form a global neutrino
KM3NeT is also being built on the experience of
three pilot projects in the Mediterranean Sea: the ANTARES
detector, the NEMO experiment, and the NESTOR Project. ANTARES is,
for now at least, the largest neutrino observatory in the northern
hemisphere, but with KM3NeT getting underway, this is likely to
change in the near future.
The galactic center
The fact that KM3NeT is pointed in the direction
of the Galactic Center is worth noting because this is where
researchers believe a supermassive black hole exists. If true, it
could help researchers with the identification of dark matter. All
they need to find are neutrinos produced by neutralino
annihilation; that is, hypothetical particles believed to
accumulate in the centers of very large objects in space.
No big deal, right?
Building KM3NeT is still a matter of securing
funds and dealing with European geopolitics. The Italian section
was recently funded though, so it's looking like
preliminary construction will begin next year.

DESPITE a ban in public hospitals, many Hunter parents are having their newborn sons circumcised, fuelling growing demand in the private sector.
Proponents say it reduces the risk of infectious diseases and cancer, while critics argue there is little medical reason to circumcise an infant.
General practitioner and former GP obstetrician Milton Sales is one of a limited number of Hunter clinicians doing circumcisions in the private sector.
He does about 25 to 28 on one day each fortnight, or up to 700 a year, in an operating theatre under local anaesthetic.
''The numbers have been climbing steadily,'' Dr Sales said. Medicare statistics showed that about 10per cent of newborn boys were circumcised in 1996 compared with about 13per cent now, he said.
The greatest number was done in NSW, where cases have almost doubled in the past 15 years from about 5500 to 9000 a year.
Penny Atkins and Glen Morgan, of Waratah, had son Dexter circumcised when he was four weeks old.
''We just decided that instead of, you know, worrying about if he was going to have infections later on as a younger child or adult, we just made the decision to get him circumcised,'' Miss Atkins said.
''My partner's done.
''We just decided we'd keep our son the same and eliminate the possibility of having infections later on.''
Dexter, now aged three months, had no complications.
''I don't regret having it done at all,'' Miss Atkins said.
Dr Sales said advantages of the procedure included reduced risk of urinary tract infections in infancy, and less chance of suffering foreskin infections and penile cancer in adulthood.
Parents often opted for their sons to be circumcised due to cultural and religious reasons or so sons were the same as their fathers, he said.
Risks included infections and bleeding following surgery.
Critics say the science is not robust enough and nor are the potential benefits of circumcision big enough to justify the risks of complications.

An Animated Tribute To Steven Spielberg
by Perry Michael Simon on February 27, 2013
This is pretty impressive: Krishna Bala Shenoi made this animated tribute to Steven Spielberg, rotoscoping action from several of the director's movies, including Lincoln, Schindler's List, E.T., and more. It's just about a minute long and it's worthy of its subject.

A simplified versino of caponata—the classic sweet and sour Sicilian eggplant relish—tossed with bitter broccoli rabe. This is about as flavorful as side dishes get. More
Stuffing (or dressing, depending on your method and who you talk to) is my favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner. In my opinion, shoveling forkfuls of fat-soaked bread doused in gravy and cranberry sauce into my mouth is what Thanksgiving is all about. In The Epicurious Cookbook, editor Tanya Steel offers a few variations on dressing/stuffing, but the most vibrant is New England Sausage, Apple, and Dried Cranberry Stuffing. More
All the flavor of an apple pie without the hassle of making a crust or turning on the oven. More
Roast turkey seasoned with five spice, vinegar, and soy sauce, stuffed into steamed buns, Peking duck-style. More
When life gives you cranberries—which it always does this time of year—make cranberry liqueur. This bright red, tart liqueur can keep you in festive cocktails from Thanksgiving to Christmas and beyond. More
Grilled bread gets rubbed with garlic, topped with a light and tangy basil fromage blanc, and piled with a chopped Niçoise salad of fresh roasted tuna, grape tomatoes, black and green olives, capers, olive oil, and lemon. More
Crunchy stuffing crumbs coat baked chicken with mushrooms in this vintage version of a Campbell's Soup recipe. More
Talk about set it and forget it: The only skill culturing your own buttermilk requires is patience. More
This bird is roasted hot to brown the skin, and then low and slow to finish. What sets it apart, however, is the unabashed use of butter. This is not a turkey simply rubbed down with butter. It is slathered, stuffed, and basted with the stuff, and then the gravy is spiked with a couple more tablespoons for good measure. More
Chocolate and pumpkin is not the most intuitive combination, but something magical happens when you combine the two in this riff on pumpkin pie. This pie is not aggressively chocolaty, but if you're looking for something new this Thanksgiving, try adding a swirl of subtle cocoa flavor to your pumpkin pie routine. More
My favorite way to cook potatoes: boiled, smashed, then shallow-fried until golden brown and crisp. They get unbelievably crispy with a great creamy center. More
Americans aren't big on Galliano, which is why 1534 bartender James Lombardino was excited to sneak 3/4 ounces of it into this bourbon-based smash. Alongside mint and lemon juice, the herbal liqueur brightens up autumn's favorite couple: bourbon and maple. More
This Mexican "lasagna" is one of my all-time favorite vegetarian main dishes. The filling—a mix of roasted sweet potatoes, black beans and green onions— is sweet and subtly spicy; the homemade salsa, made from flash-roasted vegetables, is sneakily spicy; and, well, who doesn't love a generous layer of melted, almost-crispy cheese? More
If you like your dessert more custard than cake, look no further than this Lemon and Almond Streamliner cake. Named for the pan it was originally baked in, it's velvety soft and lemony-rich. More
Tender-crisp green beans tossed in a savory dressing flavored with anchovies and Worcestershire. Hot and tangy pepperoncini, shallots, and pinenuts finish the salad. More
Because of their dainty size, lamb chops make for a great finger food to serve alongside a beer or glass of wine. Each chop provides a succulent two or three-bite serving of lamb—and on top of that, the rib bone makes for a convenient built-in handle. Although corn dogs, kebabs, and satays all make for great bar bites in their own right, there is no other meat-on-a-stick option more elegant than a lamb rib chop. More
Yes, cranberry sauce is a given. You probably make a homemade version to accompany its canned brethren in order to appease the most strident of canned-sauce believers. But often homemade cranberry sauce recipes include a cascade of spices, fruit, and nuts to distract from the fact that the sauce is simply a frozen bag of bouncy fruits cooked up with far too much sugar. In Thanksgiving: How to Cook it Well, Sam Sifton offers a straight-forward, yet well-balanced Basic Cranberry Sauce to counter all of those overwrought bowls of relish. More
Nothing screams fancy dinner quite like a bowl of pearl onions. The small orbs of sweetness signal vast amounts of prep time and tears on the part of the cook. But don't let the extra work steer you away from Sam Sifton's recipe for Creamed Onions. These morsels are easy to peel once par-boiled and shocked, then are coated in the most luscious of cream sauces. A smattering of bacon adds even more richness as well as smoky flavor, and a bright finish of herbaceous parsley, cayenne, and black pepper balance the sauce. More
This classic condiment is a type of seasoned anchovy butter that is also known as Patum Peperium. The strong anchovy flavor is complemented by cayenne pepper and ground nutmeg, and fresh lemon juice cuts through both the butter and the anchovy to add just a little lightness to this intense compound butter. More
A luscious banana cream pie for chocolate lovers. Malted milk adds a twist to this creamy and ultra-decadent pie. More
There's more than one way to enjoy cranberries this Thanksgiving than in gelatinous sauce form, and this cranberry-apple relish is a great alternative with some added bonuses. More
This Indian sweet is made by cooking down grated carrots with milk, then slowly stir-frying them in oil. It's usually eaten garnished with chopped almonds, and raisins and clotted cream are also a nice accompaniment. More
A one-pot, 40 minute meal of quick-cooking lentils simmered with Andouille sausage. More
Quick and easy gluten-free waffles flavored with sweet potato and corn flour. More
I knew going into the recipe that the bacon and butter would taste great with the greens, but the beer was a total surprise. Its beer-ness dissipates during cooking, leaving only malty sweetness and just a hint of fermented grain to the greens. It was this extra level of complexity that made these greens my favorite side of the season. More
One of Payard's favorite tarts, you'll love the combination of the rich dark chocolate with tart yet sweet cranberry. More
Deep fried brussels sprouts are the greatest thing you've never had. Here, they're tossed with a quick and easy Thai-style chili sauce flavored with fish sauce, lime juice, and chilies. More
Deep-fried brussels sprouts are the greatest thing you've never had. In this version, they get tossed with a sweet-tart honey and balsamic vinegar dressing. More
In this autumn recipe from Francois Payard, classic macaron shells are filled with a spiced pumpkin ganache. More
A flourless chocolate cake flavored with earl grey tea, lavender, and flaky sea salt. More
Fennel, swiss chard, and white beans in a creamy gratin scented with nutmeg and topped with cheesy breadcrumbs. More
Plump, tangy, briny marinated anchovies are a far cry from the desiccated little monsters you see on pizza. Give them a chance! More
If you have a cast-iron skillet and a couple of pears, you're quite close to cake. WIth a crisp bottom and sides and soft center, it's the perfect breakfast or dessert. More
The roasted soup base is acidic but thick, with just a little bit of spice hiding out in the back. The shrimp add a pop of sweetness, while a finally sprinkling of cilantro, avocado, and lime help freshen things up. More
A seven-ingredient, three-minute stir-fry packed with Thai flavor. This is about as fast, easy, and flavorful as dinner gets. More
While mashed potatoes and green beans are no-brainers come Thanksgiving, that additional side dish or two can be a bit of a toss-up. That's where Sam Sifton's Roasted Cauliflower with Anchovy Bread Crumbs from Thanksgiving: How to Cook it Well comes in—pop it into the oven while your turkey rests. Roasted cauliflower is awesome on its own, at once creamy and caramelized, but the addition of crunchy anchovy bread crumbs takes the dish into Thanksgiving territory. More
This gingery, citrusy mousse is served at Meyers and Chang in Boston. More
Make a decadent breakfast by topping homemade crepes with caramel sauce. More
Sweet strawberries are always the life of the party, and we've invited tart cranberries as well, making for a bright red taste explosion. This jam is ultra flavorful, and it will cause your sun-starved salivary glands to kick into high gear. More

HENRICO, Va. (AP) - One child care worker in Henrico County is heading to jail and another is free.
Media outlets report that a judge dismissed a misdemeanor child neglect charge against 34-year-old Niesha Cannon.
But Henrico County Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Judge Denis Soden found 20-year-old Keona Camper in contempt.
Soden ruled Friday that Cannon complied with his earlier order to perform community service, write a report and an apology, and interview people associated with child care and trauma. But Camper didn't.
Camper received a one-year sentence on the neglect charge with all but two months suspended. She also must serve 10 days for contempt. She must report to jail Nov. 14.
Prosecutors said the women left a 3-year-old boy at a park during an outing in June 2011.

Organized Living: Going Vertical with Good Looking Shelving Units
Image credits: Home & Decor
8 Comments
Office in the bathroom is bit odd.
The shelves used in the first 2 pictures, are those custom or available for purchase anywhere (hopefully cheaply)?
The shelving system in the banner photo is cute but will drive my little OCD head nuts.
Currently pulling out the shelving units I installed last spring in my tiny house. After 10 months of looking at all that visual clutter I scowl every time I walk past it, and just want it behind closed doors again and my plain old wall space back.
Maybe an art poster, a little shelf with knick knacks, makes me sigh with relief just thinking about it. Think hard about whether having all that stuff at your fingertips is worth how visually busy and dominating it is.
Where are the shelves in the first two pictures from?
The shelves in the first picture are from MDF Italia ("Random" Bookcase)
the 1st two shelves are custom made to fit the heights of the houses here in Singapore. most of the apartments here have some custom work done, and then we buy furniture to fit the rest of the area.
for the fifth pic, it's actually a clear glass panel separating the bathroom from the room. and the apartments here are so small, we have to sometimes fit a small work desk in our bedrooms. and to visually enlarge the room size, we use glass panels for the bathrooms. though i personally think it's ridiculous because guests sometimes have to use your bathroom. haha.
How is #5 an illustration of vertical/tall shelving, again? There appears to be loads of unused negative space above the shelves. I'm confused.

Full Proposal Window: August 15, 2014
September 17, 2014
The Chemical and Biological Separations (CBS) program supports fundamental research on novel methods and materials for separation processes. These processes are central to the chemical, biochemical, materials, energy, and pharmaceutical industries. A fundamental understanding of the interfacial, transport, and thermodynamic behavior of multiphase chemical systems as well as quantitative descriptions of processing characteristics in the process-oriented industries is critical for efficient resource management and effective environmental protection. The program encourages proposals that address emerging research areas and technologies, have a high degree of interdisciplinary thought coupled with knowledge creation, and integrate education and research.
Research topics OF PARTICULAR INTEREST in CBS include fundamental molecular-level work on:
The duration of unsolicited awards is generally one to three years. The average annual award size for the program is $80,000. Proposals requesting a substantially higher amount than this, without prior consultation with the Program Director, may be returned without review. Small equipment proposals of less than $100,000 will also be considered and may be submitted during the annual submission window.
Innovative proposals outside of these specific interest areas can be considered. However, prior to submission, it is recommended that the PI contact the Program Director to avoid the possibility of the proposal being returned without review.
Proposals should address the novelty and/or potentially transformative nature http://www.nsf.gov/about/transformative_research/faq.jsp of the concept being proposed, compared to previous work in the field. Also, it is important to address why the proposed work is important in terms of engineering science, as well as to also project the potential impact on society and /or industry of success in the research. The novelty or potentially transformative nature of the research should be included, as a minimum, in the Project Summary of each proposal.
Proposals submitted to this program are subject to the scope of the program's description and the availability of funds. Decisions about particular proposals are often very difficult to make and factors other than reviewer comments and ratings enter into the decision. Maintaining appropriate balance among subfields, the availability of other funding, the total amount of funds available to the program, and general Foundation policies and priorities are also important decision factors.
Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) program proposals are strongly encouraged. Award duration is five years. The submission deadline for Engineering CAREER proposals is in July every year. Please see the following URL for more information: http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=503214
Proposals for Conferences, Workshops, and Supplements: Proposals involving these activities should ideally be submitted during the regular annual proposal window. PIs are strongly encouraged to discuss their requests with the Program Director before submission of the proposal.
Grants for Rapid Response Research (RAPID) and EArly-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) are also considered when appropriate. Please note that proposals of these types must be discussed with the Program Director before submission. Further details are available in the Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide (PAPPG) download.
Unsolicited proposals received outside of the Announced Proposal Window dates will be returned without review.

LYNCHBURG, Virginia — Police have defused a bomb that a student brought to a private school for special-needs children in Lynchburg.
Lynchburg Police Capt. Ryan Zuidema tells The News and Advance (http://bit.ly/TtrGIw ) that the Rivermont School and neighboring homes and businesses were evacuated Thursday while state police took the chemical bomb to a secure location away from the school and defused it. About 56 students were at the school. Nobody was injured.
Police said the 14-year-old student brought the foot-tall bomb to school in his backpack. Staff became aware of the threat and took the bomb outside.
The student was taken into custody.
The school is run by Centra. Its website says the school is designed for students who have psychological, emotional or learning problems but do not require inpatient treatment.
