Opportunity Lite is a dental unit that combines building traditions of the highest standard with a modern minimalist design.
With the innovative movement of the body linked to the chair allows you to calmly face any clinical treatment, from surgery to conservative till the more complex prosthetic implants.
Copega offer different systems to ensure Hygiene treatment: VITRA SPRAY: complete disinfection system (water circuits, spray and suction cannulas) using specific liquid per cycle at the end of the day.
SIC LIGHT: disinfection system ( operatin in continuous).
SIC: disinfection system in continuous with circuit breaker (see regulations EN 1717).
The dental unit OPPORTUNITY LITE is designed for optimization of space by offering maximum performance. The body directly connected to the chair gives a better management in the use of the dental unit, the mechanics of the instruments is designed to increase maneuverability and zero tension exerted on the wrist of the doctor for total comfort.

Google Lunar XPrize down to 5 finalists aiming to fly to the moon in 2017
Darrell Etherington	@etherington / 4 years
Google's Lunar XPrize competition is nearing its zenith – the slate of competitors is down to five finalists, all of whom are competing to be the first private company to launch a spacecraft destined for the moon by the end of 2017. The five remaining teams include SpaceIL, Moon Express, Synergy Moon, Team Indus and Hakuto. The teams need to not only fly to the moon in order to qualify, but also to travel a minimum of 500 meters once they're there.
The teams are all planning different routes to the Moon, and have varying strategies of how to complete that second requirement, which also includes sending back both photos and live video streams from the Moon's surface. But all must launch their missions (launch, not land) by December 31st of this year to qualify for the XPrize, which is $20 million for the grand prize winner who arrives on the moon and completes the requirements first, and $5 million for second place. Bonus prizes will also be awarded for separate achievements, like getting to the original Apollo landing site where humans first set foot on our closest natural satellite.
Even the remaining 11 teams who didn't make this final round are getting something, however – Google is splitting $1 million in prize money across the entire field of 16 who made it this far, rewarding them all for the contribution to spaceflight research and education awareness.
Of the entire crop, the remaining five have all managed to get verified launch contracts, which is why they're still int he running. SpaceIL was the first, and has a contract with SpaceX to launch its lunar lander by the second half of 2017. Moon Express is booked to ride on a yet-to-fly rocket called Electron from startup Rocket Lab, and Moon Express has government permission to fly, too. Synergy Moon will fly via Interorbital's Neptune 8, another rocket that has yet to actually reach space. Finally, team Indus and team Hakuto will be sharing a ride on a rocket with a proven track record provided by the Indian space agency.
Rides might be the deciding factor here – only three of the remaining five have trips booked on vehicles which have actually traveled to space in the past, but they also face challenges, including delays to SpaceX's program incurred by the company's pre-launch explosion last year. Still, exciting that even five of the overall group have made it this far.


Give Me Patch Notes and I'll Give You Totems!
As I'm sure many of you know by now, the PTR is live bringing with it a wonderous amount of changes to pretty much everyone. I'm going to focus today on a few things, Shaman changes and tier 10 set bonus for Restoration Shaman. First let's take a look at the set bonuses for tier 10 Restoration shall we?
Shaman T10 Restoration 2P Bonus – Your Riptide spell grants 20% spell haste for your next spellcast.
Shaman T10 Restoration 4P Bonus – Your Chain Heal critical strikes cause the target to heal for 25% of the healed amount over until cancelled.
Hmmm, interesting set bonus. Two piece gives you more haste very much like how Tidal Waves reduces the cast time of your Healing Wave by 30%. Personally I love haste, and rolling Riptide should be a part of any Shaman's normal healing arsenal so this set bonus really appeals to me. The four piece bonus is also very intriguing. The wording is a little weird and so it will have room for interpretation. Is it placing a HoT on a target for 25% of the amount healed similar to how Earthliving Weapon places a HoT on the target? Will it give an instant heal for 25% of the total? My moneys on a HoT. Personally I like these set bonuses. I think they are solid additions to our repertoire. Looking at them though we can take a guess at what type of damage we're going to be seeing… I'm guessing lots of raid damage. Giving us haste, adding an additional heal component to our chain heal this just screams to me tons of raid wide damage (thoughts of Sun Well suddenly jump to mind). Now I'm looking forward to the aesthetics of the set. Hopefully we wont look like a mix between bugs and sand people.
So our set bonuses are shaping up nicely (which is pretty par for the course for us at this point). Lets swing our attention over to the patch notes shall we?
Not much is changing as of yet, of course as you know that may or may not change. For now though here are the bits though.
Mi kamagra 100 in farmacia svizzera hanno prescritto un antistaminico poi successivamente il cortisone. Potrebbe viagra generico e similares essere un particolare tipo di grasso, oppure anche un fattore di crescita in esso contenuto e assente nel latte artificiale. Orc and troll shamans now have their own unique totem art.
* Fire Nova Totem: This totem has been replaced with a new spell, Fire Nova, which is available at the same ranks as the old Fire Nova Totem. Existing characters will automatically learn this new spell in place of the totem. With a Fire Totem active, shamans will be able to use Fire Nova (fire magic) to emit the same area-of-effect damage as the old Fire Nova Totem from the active Fire Totem, not consuming the totem in the process. Fire Nova will activate a 1.5-second global cooldown when used and has a 10-second spell cooldown. The caster must be within 30 yards of the totem to use this ability, but does not need to be within line of sight of the totem.
I'll leave the totem art aside for a second, first lets talk about Fire Nova.
This one is… interesting. Basically getting rid of a totem that some of us were using to help with AE damage in fights like Thorim's arena. It lets us not have to cast a different totem, but instead we can center an AE spell off our current fire totem. This still requires you to run into melee and drop said totem, but it's a nice touch. I can run in set my totems and then when needed blast out some AE damage to help thing the gaggle of bad guys we're killing. I'll have to play with it more, but so far so good.
The Orc one is pretty gnarly. Not only is it a totem but it can double as an axe! It seems to fit to me.
Trolls are pretty cool too. Troll fetish hung from the totems looks like the shadow hunter's totems in WC3.
All in all pretty good job. Now if I may I'd like to take a second to rage about another set of totems. The Dwarf Shaman Totems. Now I know that Cataclysm (or at least 4.0) is a while away, they… bother me.
So… why can't Dwarves get something stone related? I mean think about it. They live in the mountains, they have a racial ability called Stoneform, they are known for their Gryphons, but only one clan (Wildhammer) and they aren't playable, but we hear about is how they are awesome miners. Sure we hear about their forges and smithy's but I think the totems could be a bit better suited to the race (read more metal/stone and less wood please).
Don't get me wrong. I'm happy I can finally be a Dwarf Shaman. I've wanted to be a Dwarf Shaman for a long long time. I thank Blizzard for that, but that doesn't mean I won't weep a little bit every time I drop a set of hammers on the ground. Trolls and Orcs won out with some pretty good totem design and Tauren get to be unique snowflakes again with theirs. Overall I'm happy with it. Giving each race's Shaman's a unique totem is a good step. But if Goblin Shaman get cool looking gear totems, I don't know what I'm going to do. Maybe throw my hammer at them. Maybe cast Wrath of Carpentry.
Although maybe I can rename myself Captain Hammer and invite people back to my Hammer Cave to show them my Hammer….
So what do you guys think so far? Like the new totems, dislike the new totems? Like the set bonuses?

The volume of all the areas is perceived as one large space, opening up the floor plan not only improves the flow between spaces, it also lets you enjoy borrowed light and views from other spaces and the outdoors.
2. Combine the circulation. Circulation volumes, as opposed to walled corridors, allow movement from one room to any other room. These circulation volumes eliminate the need for multiple hallways. Additionally, it can become an inspiring space that incorporates large windows, strategic views, and high ceilings.
Keeping bedrooms smaller encourages the family to spend more time together in the living areas.
4. Floor to ceiling windows. Spaces with ample natural daylight feel more spacious and inviting. If the windows are well-placed, a small house doesn't feel constrained because it connects with nature.
5. Vaulted or High Ceilings. High ceilings can make small spaces seem more spacious and light-filled. Light coloured walls and ceilings help light illuminate the space. Higher ceilings also provide the opportunity to introduce a loft space to increase the amount of usable space.
6. Add an Exterior Deck or Porch. One of the best ways to gain space in small homes is by extending the living space outside of the home's footprint. Large patio doors that enable you to flow effortlessly from indoors to an exterior deck or porch significantly expand your living area.
7. Plan storage & de-clutter. Busy, untidy spaces feel overwhelming and cramped. This feeling is exacerbated by small spaces so try to keep the spaces clutter and distraction-free. Remember: space is valuable and precious in your home. Donate, sell or get rid of items you don't need. For the rest, organize and store them out of sight and make the storage look good.
The key to designing a small modern house effectively is to keep the architecture and details simple and the spaces as open as possible, both in terms of natural light and clutter.
Living in a smaller home is a personal and lifestyle preference. It can afford you a simpler life – spending less time and money to build, to clean, and to maintain over the years and freeing you up to spend more time doing the things you love.

About 1200 years ago, only 10 years after establishing the capital in Nagaoka-kyo, the then Emperor Kanmu decided to move the capital again to avoid misfortunes happened next by next. The name of the new capital, which was built in the center of today's Kyoto city, was "Heian-kyo." The main street of Heian-kyo was called Suzaku-Oji and this is the present Senbon-dori street. This time, we will take you to the Senbon street area where you can visit some of the famous sightseeing spots whose origin dates back to the Heian period (794-1185/1192) when Heian-kyo was existed. Visiting this area would entice you to visit the other attractions Kyoto has cultivated in its long history.
It has its origin in a Shinto ritual called a Goryo-e in which people prayed for the cessation of the epidemic. You can enjoy an Ahokashi-san stone or draw Waka-mikuji (sacred lot with a Japanese poem) to try your luck.
Located in front of the gate of Imamiya shrine, it has been in business there for more than 1000 years. Aburimochi (charcoal-roasted rice cakes served with a sweet white miso sauce), a specialty of this shop, is believed to have the power to protect people from epidemics. The historic atmosphere of the shop may make you feel as if you have stepped back in time.
Closed:Every Wednesday, on the 1st and 15th of each month but when a holiday falls on a closed day, it is open on that day but closed the next day.
In the Heian period, it was the Imperial garden but now it is a temple of the Shingon sect of Buddhism. It is believed that if you pay a visit to the shrine crossing the vermillion colored bridge, your wish will be granted.
The name of the restaurant comes from Ryokiden palace which used to be in a corner of the old Imperial Palace. Set meals cooked with a specialty oil from a long-established oil shop is very popular among both men and women.
It has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site with its five-storied pagoda, a landmark of Kyoto. It was founded as a state-sponsored temple to protect Heian-kyo.
This information is correct as of December, 2012.

When you use this node on the FPGA or simulated FPGA, the data type for this input changes to a signed integer. This change allows LabVIEW to know the size of the input at compile time.
When you compare two arrays, x >= y? is a scalar in Compare Aggregates mode and a Boolean array in Compare Elements mode (default). To change modes, select the appropriate option in the Compare group on the Configure tab.
When using Greater? in Compare Aggregates mode, if all values in the input arrays are equal but one array has extra elements at the end, the longer array is considered greater than the shorter one. For example, a Greater? node set to Compare Aggregates considers the array [1,2,3,2] to be greater than the array [1,2,3].

BREAKING: Idaho Officer Shot, Gunman Escaped
Star, ID – An Ada County Sheriff's Office (ACSO) deputy is in critical condition after being shot by a suspect on a stolen motorcycle on Monday morning.
UPDATE: The suspect has been captured.
There is an "active manhunt" underway for the gunman, who is described as a dark-haired white male in his forties, Ada County Sheriff Stephen Bartlett said during a 10:15 a.m. press conference.
He was last seen wearing a blue or dark-colored bandana and jeans, and was carrying a tan or camo-patterned backpack.
Sheriff Bartlett described the incident as an "active situation," and residents have been asked to "shelter in place."
The attack occurred in the area of Beacon Light and Highway 16 at approximately 7:30 a.m., KIVI reported.
Deputies responded to the area after receiving a report of a home burglary in Canyon County, Sheriff Bartlett said.
The suspect allegedly fled the burglary scene on a stolen motorcycle.
A deputy soon spotted someone matching the description of the suspect and the stolen motorcycle and attempted to stop the rider, the sheriff said.
After a "short pursuit," the suspect got off of the motorcycle and tried to run off on foot, Sheriff Bartlett told reporters.
The deputy chased him for a short distance before the suspect opened fire on him, hitting him twice.
The deputy returned fire, but it is unknown whether or not the gunman was wounded.
Sheriff Bartlett said it is not yet known how many rounds were fired during the gun battle.
The shooter ultimately escaped, and the deputy was rushed to a local hospital in critical condition.
He is "undergoing evaluation in surgery," Sheriff Bartlett said.
The wounded deputy's family has been notified.
Here is an updated description of shooting suspect deputies are looking for in the Idaho 16/Beacon Light area: White male, slender build, with short facial hair. He was wearing a puffy dark green jacket and jeans, and a blue bandanna.
— Ada County Sheriff (@AdaCoSheriff) July 13, 2020
A SWAT unit and a critical incident task force have been dispatched to the area as the "active manhunt" for the unidentified gunman continues, Sheriff Bartlett said.
The suspect "should be considered armed and very dangerous," the sheriff added.
The Boise Police Department (BPD) is leading the ongoing investigation.
Search still underway for suspect who shot an Ada County Sheriff Deputy. Details on the way. https://t.co/uzWGhH1mmH
— Rick Worthington (@RickWorthington) July 13, 2020
Sheriff Bartlett declined to release the wounded deputy's name out of respect for him and his family, but said he had been serving the department for just over one year.
He noted that the deputy previously served in "another part of the country," and that he has an "extensive law enforcement" background.
"He's a very seasoned deputy," Sheriff Bartlett said.

Q: Instatinating interface based object Having such a simple code:
interface int1 {
    aa: string,
    bb: number,
}

const obj1:int1 = {}  //#1

function fun(param_obj:int1) {  //#2
}

My question is why does the compiler shouts an error:
Type '{}' is missing the following properties from type 'int1': aa, bb
on line #1 an does NOT show an error on line #2 since on both lines the new object is being created?

A: #1 line should still throw error because:
Since params aa and bb are not optional, as the error says object is missing properties defined in interface int1.
Depending what you intend to do, you can either make aa and bb optional with defining interface as following:
interface int1 {
  aa?: string,
  bb?: number
}

or use Partial TypeScript docs
const obj1: Partial<int1> = {}

for line #2, is as mentioned already, you need to check where you pass in object.

Hooper Strait Light is one of four surviving Chesapeake Bay screw-pile lighthouses in the state of Maryland. Originally located in Hooper Strait, between Hooper and Bloodsworth Islands in Dorchester County and at the entrance to Tangier Sound, it is now an exhibit at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, Maryland. Hooper Strait Light was first lit in 1867, was automated in 1954, and was moved to St Michaels in 1966.

$15.6 million railroad facility opens Des Moines to global markets
Austin Cannon
The Des Moines Register
Des Moines will build a long-awaited $15.6 million railroad transfer station on the city's southeast side next year.
City officials say the "transload" facility will be a boon to the local economy, lowering shipping costs for Des Moines companies while luring businesses that sidestep central Iowa for the likes Omaha and Kansas City, which have more robust rail systems.
"It's a huge opportunity for central Iowa," said Des Moines Mayor Frank Cownie.
A transload facility — also called a railport — is a transfer point where bulk materials move from semi-trailers to trains, which ship products at a lower cost.
According to a University of Northern Iowa study, the facility could have a $4.8 million annual economic impact and create 50 new jobs, including 20 jobs tied directly to the railport.
Des Moines plans to build its facility across the street from the Richard A. Clark Municipal Services Center, 1551 E. Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway, along four rail lines that link Des Moines to destinations across the country.

The project has long been an objective for local city and business leaders.
The Des Moines Area Metropolitan Planning Organization on Tuesday was awarded an $11.2 million U.S. Department of Transportation grant that will allow the project to break ground and possibly open by the end of 2019.
Without the grant, it likely would have been built in phases over the next three to five years.
"It allows us to be competitive with other metropolitan areas in the Midwest that we often compete with for projects," said David Maahs, executive vice president of economic development for the Greater Des Moines Partnership.
An MPO study found that companies with access to multiple railroads can save up to 50 percent on shipping costs. The Des Moines site has access to three Class 1 rail lines — Union Pacific, BNSF and Norfolk Southern — and the Iowa Interstate railroad.
Des Moines' only existing railport facility is limited, the MPO study says. It is only accessible to the Union Pacific railroad and it is only capable of handling one product: plastic pellets.
Most central Iowa companies do not have a local option to ship products by rail, said Zach Young, a principal planner at the MPO. Those who want to ship their goods by train must first truck the materials to Kansas City, Omaha or Chicago, he said.
Des Moines' new facility will handle multiple commodities like grain, steel, lumber and cement.
It will add "another arrow to our quiver," said Luke Schryver, the vice president of business development for Green Products Company. The company, based in Conrad, about 65 miles northeast of Des Moines, ships large amounts of bulk products across the country.
Some of his customers would prefer rail transportation over trucking, which is more expensive, he said. But saving money is not the main draw.
"For our company, it's less about absolute cost savings and more about the ability to increase flexibility (i.e. service) to our customers," Schryver said in an email.
It should benefit the entire region, Young said.
Located at the junction of Interstate Highways 35 and 80, Des Moines is already a trucking hub. The transload facility provides another option for shippers already moving goods through the city.
It is expected to serve companies within a 150-mile radius, which includes the vast majority of Iowa and parts of northern Missouri, eastern Nebraska and southern Minnesota.
"It will bring businesses to the Des Moines area, but it will also allow businesses that were already here to expand their operations as well," said Todd Ashby, executive director of the MPO.
The Iowa National Guard, one of the parties that wrote a letter in support of the grant, said it could use the facility to transport military equipment rather trucking equipment to Kansas City to access rail lines there. The Des Moines facility would save the Iowa National Guard about 60 percent on its transportation costs, Young said.
Looking for operator
The city of Des Moines and Des Moines Area Metropolitan Planning Organization have been working on this project for more than five years.
Des Moines Transload, a private company that was originally expected to operate the facility, has since pulled out of the project.
The MPO will to interview prospective companies this month and select an operator in January. The city of Des Moines owns the site.


Team Rokka - How to join?
The conservation work of Team Rokka is funded by donations, grants and sponsors. Our main objective is the operative work on the field. Our communication is based mainly on what we have witnessed on the front line.
Our principle is to have a light governmental infrastructure to direct our funds to front line activities and operations.
Team Rokka's detection dog project in years 2015 and 2016 in Tanzania has finished, at least at this moment. Pioneer project was highly successful. Right now Team Rokka is identifying all possibilities to implement new projects to trail poachers and wildlife traffickers. New destinations are in Africa and Asia.
Team Rokka will gather funds to new projects only after when we are fully prepared with a decision where we're headed. Raising funds without operative work is not part of our plan and values. Finnish Team Rokka family members can support our local activities by purchasing support products. These products cover costs arising from travelling to find new sponsors and operative partners.
The announcement for fund raising will be made on our Facebook pages. Stay tuned!

Трансмиссивные губчатые энцефалопатии (ТГЭ), или трансмиссивные спонгиоформные энцефалопатии (ТСЭ), также известные как прионные болезни (инфекции) — группа нейродегенеративных заболеваний людей и животных c образованием губчатой энцефалопатии, которая принадлежит к медленным инфекциям и характеризуется поражением центральной нервной системы, мышечной, лимфатической и других систем, со 100-процентным летальным исходом.

Возбудителем этой группы заболеваний являются прионы — особый класс инфекционных агентов, представленных белками с аномальной третичной структурой и не содержащих нуклеиновых кислот. Заболевание ведет к деградации умственных и физических способностей с образованием в коре больших полушарий огромного количества отверстий, в связи с чем головной мозг под микроскопом при аутопсии напоминает губку (отсюда название «губчатая»). Болезнь нарушает функционирование головного мозга: прогрессируют ухудшение памяти и координации, у человека наступают личностные расстройства. У людей прионные болезни включают классический вариант болезни Крейтцфельдта-Якоба, её новый вариант nvCJD, связанный с губчатой энцефалопатией крупного рогатого скота, синдром Герстмана — Штраусслера — Шейнкера, фатальную семейную бессонницу, ку́ру и недавно открытую . Существует ряд таких заболеваний со сходными симптомами.

Nuclear power at what cost?
By Shankar Sharma
When the developed world is rethinking on its nuclear power policy, Indian government seems very keen to follow a dangerous path without fully exploring various cheaper and sustainable options of energy production.
edf40wrjww2articles:details
People have serious reservations against nuclear plants after Fukushima disaster
In view of the protests against Kudnakulam Project, a holistic approach towards nuclear power has become essential. All the related issues from technical, economic, social, environmental and even inter-generational perspective need careful consideration keeping in view the long term implications of a nuclear power policy. Most importantly such a long term policy should not be pursued without people's effective participation.
General safety concerns
Nuclear power plants are some of the most sophisticated and complex energy systems ever designed. Operating nuclear reactors contain large amounts of radioactive fission products which, if dispersed, can pose a direct radiation hazard, contaminate soil and vegetation, and be ingested by humans and animals. Human exposure at high enough levels can cause both short-term illness and death and longer-term death by cancer and other diseases.
Proponents argue that nuclear power is a sustainable energy source which reduces carbon emissions and can increase energy security if its use supplants a dependence on imported fuels. Proponents advance the notion that nuclear power produces virtually no air pollution, in contrast to the chief viable alternative of fossil fuel. They emphasize that the risks of storing waste are small and can be further reduced by using the latest technology in newer reactors, and the operational safety record in the Western world is excellent when compared to the other major kinds of power plants.
Opponents say that nuclear power poses many threats to people and the environment. These threats include health risks and environmental damage from uranium mining, processing and transport, the risk of nuclear weapons proliferation or sabotage, and the unsolved problem of radioactive nuclear waste. Critics do not believe that these risks can be reduced through new technology. They argue that when all the energy-intensive stages of the nuclear fuel chain are considered, from uranium mining to nuclear decommissioning, and the amount energy required keeping the nuclear waste safe for thousands of years, nuclear power is not a low-carbon electricity source.
Opponents say that nuclear power poses many threats to people and the environment. These threats include health risks and environmental damage from uranium mining, processing and transport, the risk of nuclear weapons proliferation or sabotage, and the unsolved problem of radioactive nuclear waste.
Economics of nuclear power
The new nuclear power plant being built in Europe is by EDF at Flamanville in France. It is now at least four years behind time and Euro 2.7 Billion over budget. The only other new nuclear plant being built in Europe is at Olkiluoto in Finland. Areva, the builder of this plant is reported to be four years late and Euro 2.6 Billion over budget. When nuclear power was initially propounded as a possible source of electricity, it was touted as so cheap that even metering its consumption was considered unnecessary. Today it is the seen as the costliest source of electrical power.
It is projected that at Jaitapura (Maharastra) the total cost of the proposed power capacity of 9,900 MW with 6 of EPR reactors will be about Rs. 200,000 Crores. This comes to about Rs. 20 Crores per MW. In comparison the cost of a coal power plant is about 7-9 crores/MW, and that of a hydel power plant is about Rs. 8-10 crores/MW. So, the capital cost aspect of nuclear power seems to be against the technology. If we also take into objective account the long term storage costs, insurance costs, government subsidies and all the associated environmental and health costs, the nuclear power projects will be much costlier than any other conventional power sources.
Long term storage of nuclear waste is a major issue requiring our attention. Even US, which has over 100 nuclear reactors and which depends upon nuclear power for about 20% of its electricity generation capacity, has not found a satisfactory answer to this problem.
In an article, Dr. Michael I. Niman, a professor of Journalism and Media Studies at Buffalo State College has analysed the nuclear power cost: "The potential risk from a nuclear accident is so huge as to be commercially uninsurable. In fact, if the nuclear power industry were left to fend for itself in the free market, it would instantly collapse, turning upside-down once risk gets factored into any equation. The risk of catastrophe is so high, and the potential catastrophe so large, that the cost of insurance, assuming hypothetically that it was available, raises the cost per kilowatt hour of electricity off of the charts."
There have been suggestions from Indian nuclear authorities that the safe storage of nuclear waste is technically feasible during its active life time. Is it really so, and even if it is so, what about the huge costs involved? The fact that a nuclear power plant cannot be commercially insured against catastrophic failures/losses says a lot about its commercial viability. In this regard there are credible and serious concerns that whereas the present generation may get the benefit of electricity from nuclear power, the future generations have to deal with all the risks and costs associated with the spent fuel. Is this fair or socially responsible?
Despite the huge increase in the total power generation capacity in India, from a meager 1,800 MW in 1950 to 177,000 MW in 2011, the total contribution of nuclear power to the total power generation capacity is about 2.7% only. This insignificant role of nuclear power in India's power scenario, despite massive investment during the last 50 years, may indicate the realities of nuclear power in the Indian context.
Appropriateness of nuclear power to India
Since each of the three techno-economic super powers (USA, Russia and Japan) has experienced the nuclear emergency from their power plants, the very wisdom of relying on nuclear power technology as a safe and sustainable source power is being increasingly questioned. If such resource rich and knowledgeable communities could not avert nuclear emergencies, can our densely populated and ill-prepared society ever hope to avert the possible human catastrophe from a nuclear mishap?
While the nuclear establishment in the country has been making tall claims on the increased role of nuclear energy, the reality has been much less in successive decades after independence. Despite the huge increase in the total power generation capacity in India, from a meager 1,800 MW in 1950 to 177,000 MW in 2011, the total contribution of nuclear power to the total power generation capacity is about 2.7% only. This insignificant role of nuclear power in India's power scenario, despite massive investment during the last 50 years, may indicate the realities of nuclear power in the Indian context.
Pro-nuclear advocates argue that nuclear power is a good option against Global Warming. One flawed assumption in this argument is that Global Warming can be contained without fundamentally changing the Western pattern of energy consumption, because nuclear energy is tiny contributor to energy mix world wide.
Additionally, the amount of energy consumed in the nuclear fuel cycle from the mining stage till its radio active emission gets reduced to safe levels after hundreds of years is estimated to be colossal. The contribution to atmospheric pollution at the stages of mining and processing, and radiation leaks to atmosphere are not inconsiderable. Taking all these facts into objective account it seems futile to argue that the nuclear power can make considerable contribution to mitigating the threat of Global Warming.
Costs & Benefits Analysis
In deliberating as to how much and what technology to be adopted in adding to the electricity generating capacity, there is a dire need to keep the overall costs and benefits to our society of such a policy in proper perspective. Any course of action we may take in order to meet the growing power demand in future will have deleterious impacts on our natural resources and environment, as also on the vulnerable sections of our society. Hence there is an imminent need to take utmost care in minimizing such impacts.
For example, if the decision makers take adequate care many benign and less costly options than Kudamkulam and Jaitapur nuclear power projects will become evident. It should be noted that the projected capacity of 2,000 MW from Kudamkulam, and 10,000 MW from Jaitapura projects will in reality may mean not much more than 1,100 MW and 6,500 MW respectively of real benefits to the society because of the inefficiency associated with these power plants and the power network. As opposed to such limited benefits with huge costs to the society, the alternatives available to our society are of much higher value.
Without considering various alternatives it may not be appropriate to establish nuclear power plants at horrendous costs to the society.

Energy or illusion?
The overall cost of establishing and running a nuclear power plant, and long term burden to safe-keep the spent nuclear fuels for centuries, are enormous and can not be ignored by our society and government.
Still unclear on nuclear?
Considering the grave consequences of a nuclear emergency as seen in Japan, India will do better to do an objective analysis of all the costs and benefits to the society of nuclear power plants.

Corruption Watch
The bad news is that corruption has not only sustained but has grown in size and stature in the country. With scams being a regular feature, seventy per cent respondents in a survey have rightfully opined that corruption has continued to increase in India. One in every two interviewed admit having paid a bribe for availing public services during last one year. Transparency International's latest survey reveals that the political parties top the chart for the most corrupt public institutions, followed by police force and legislatures. No wonder, India continues to make new records on the global corruption arena!
The shocking revelation is that the health and education sectors haven't remained untouched by this phenomenon. With 5th and 6th positions respectively for these sectors on the public perception chart on corruption, corruption has crept insidiously into these sectors of hope for the masses. With bureaucracy being fourth in the list of corrupt institutions in the country, corruption seems to have been non-formally institutionalized with little hope if public services would ever be effective in the country. With economic growth having literally institutionalized corruption, are we now expecting corrupt to be socially responsible - a different CSR.
Poor. Who?
Not giving 'aid' to India is one thing but calling it 'rich' is quite another. If one in three of the world's malnourished children live in India, what does average daily income of $3 indicate? It perhaps means that there is a relative decline in poverty - people are 'less poor' than what they used to be in the past. But having crossed the World Bank arbitrary threshold of $2 a day does not absolve the 'developed' countries of their obligation to part with 0.7 per cent of their Gross National Income in development aid. Should this three-decade old figure not be revised?
An interesting debate in UK's House of Commons delved on future of development assistance by the British Government. While prioritizing limited resources has been a concern, there has been no denying the fact that development aid must be guided towards tangible gains over a short period of time to start with. There are difficult choices for elected governments to make - should they invest in long-term primary education or in short-term university scholarships? Which of these will bring gains and trigger long-term transformation in the society. As politicians continue to be divided on the matter, poverty persists!!
