Club-Mate, the hacker's beverage of choice.
I'm at The Last HOPE in NYC this weekend, checking out lots of cool talks about hacking both hardware and software. I took a few pictures today and put them up on flickr.
Club-Mate is a very popular beverage this year, a shipment arrived from Germany yesterday and bottles are on sale at the 2600 store on the Mezzanine. Based on my experience, I have to agree with their motto, which is "You get used to it!" The flavor is something like prune juice (!) crossed with tea and honey. But honestly, are people drinking it for the flavor?
I'll be at the con all weekend and should have an update soon.
Welcome to MightyOhm, the personal blog of Jeff Keyzer. Jeff is an electrical engineer, hacker, tinkerer, and maker living in San Francisco, CA.


Arc-jet wind tunnels produce the flow conditions as an entry vehicle entering the atmosphere of a planet. They are widely used in experimental investigations of heat shield materials and thermal protection systems (TPSs). For a detailed analysis of experimental data, it is very important to know the conditions of the plasma flow that reaches a specimen of heat shield material or the TPS; e.g., the total pressure, total temperature and turbulence intensity of the plasma flow. However, it is hard to measure the properties of plasma flow because of its high temperature. In particular, it is almost impossible to measure the turbulence intensity inside an arc heater. On the other hand, if accurate physical models are adopted, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can provide very useful information on plasma flow, and play an important role on the analysis of experimental data.
Several types of arc heaters have been developed according to the required range of total pressure and total enthalpy; these include the Huels type, constricted type, segmented constrictor type, inductively-coupled plasma (ICP), MPD (magnetoplasmadynamic) and so on. Among them, the segmented type and the Huels-type arc heaters have been widely used in aerospace applications since they can provide a large amount of plasma flow at a high total pressure condition. Compared to other types of arc heaters, the Huels arc heater produces a severe arc fluctuation phenomenon in time and space whereas a segmented arc heater produces stable arc flow throughout a long constrictor. At present, CFD analysis is more useful for the analysis of segmented type arc heaters since it is not easy to calculate a Huels-type arc heater accurately, even though state-of-the-art CFD technologies have been applied.
There have been several numerical investigations of the flow inside segmented arc heaters; these studies mainly focused on the improvement of physical models including radiation and the turbulence model. In the 1970s, Nicolet et al. (1975), based on the work of Watson and Pegot (1967), developed the ARCFLO numerical code. The ARCFLO code adopted a two-band radiation model and an algebraic turbulence model. However, since ARCFLO uses the space marching technique, it requires knowledge of downstream conditions in advance. Thus, the applicability of the ARCFLO code was quite restrictive in the actual design of arc heaters. Therefore, Kim et al. (2000) developed a time-marching code, ARCFLO2, to overcome this shortcoming. ARCFLO2 retained the two-band radiation model and the algebraic turbulence model. Sakai and Olejniczak (2001, 2003) improved the numerical models of ARCFLO and ARCFLO2 by adopting a new three-band radiation model that was quite consistent with detailed line-by-line calculation; this code was named ARCFLO3. However, ARCFLO2 and ARCFLO3 could not always provide acceptable accuracy for a wide range of arc heaters since it could not predict turbulence physics accurately. Recently, Lee et al. (2007) improved ARCFLO3 and named their revised code ARCFLO4. The ARCFLO4 code adopted a two-equation turbulence model instead of an algebraic turbulence model while retaining the three-band radiation model of ARCFLO3. ARCFLO4 adopted k-ε (Jones & Launder, 1972), k-ω (Wilcox, 1998), and kω-SST model (Menter, 1994) which are able to express convective physics of turbulence and do not explicitly require a mixing length. Subsequently, ARCFLO4 was improved to handle an air–argon mixture as a working gas, and its numerical accuracy was sufficiently enhanced to be used as an arc heater design tool (Lee et al., 2008). Recently, ARCFLO4 was improved again to solve electronic field and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations.
This chapter is focused on two issues. First, the accuracy level of recent CFD technology for arc-heated plasma flow is introduced and validated. As previously mentioned, arc heaters are widely used for high enthalpy flow experiments, and the values of total pressure, total enthalpy, and turbulence intensity at the surface of the specimen are important for a detailed analysis of experimental data. For example, in ablation experiments, the turbulent intensity of plasma flow may accelerate an ablation several-fold compared to laminar plasma flow. In order to validate the ARCFLO4 code, I first describe the results of the CFD analysis by comparison with real experimental data. Second, the potential use of the computational code as a design tool for arc heater is discussed. The empirical design process is possible if an established database exists based on the extensive experience of designers. However, if this is not the case, it is hard to determine the required total enthalpy, the amount of the heat flux that should be removed by cooling process, and so on. On the other hand, the required database can be obtained easily by CFD analysis if an accurate calculation of arc-heated flow is possible. Thus, in this chapter, I consider the performance variation of an arc heater according to changes in design variables in order to assess the use of ARCFLO4 as a design tool for arc heaters.
The contents of the remainder of this chapter are as follows. The governing equation and the physical modeling are explained in Section 2. In Section 3, validations and a flow analysis of the arc heater flow are described. Finally, Section 4 describes a parametric study process to examine the possibility of using a CFD code as an arc heater design tool.
In practical applications, argon and air are injected separately in a segmented arc heater (Terrazas-Salinas & Cornelison, 1999). Thus, the continuity equation for argon gas is also solved. The thermodynamic and transport properties of the mixture, including Ar and Ar+, are calculated in a thermal equilibrium state. I is the Joule heating term and qR is the radiant flux. As shown in Eq. 2, swirl velocity w is considered in the momentum equation and the energy equation to reflect the effects of swirl injection. Numerically, the governing equations are then discretized using the finite volume method. The AUSMPW+ scheme (Kim et al., 2001) is used for the spatial discretization of the inviscid flux. A central difference scheme is used for the calculation of the viscous flux. For time integration, LU-SGS (Jameson & Yoon, 1987) method is used and the spatial accuracy is improved by MLP(Kim & Kim, 2005).
Turbulence is known to play an important role in the flow physics of an arc heater. In numerical calculations, algebraic turbulence models have been used wherein the turbulent fluctuating quantities are correlated to the mean flow quantities using algebraic relations. However, such calculations do not reflect the convection effect of turbulence since the local rate of turbulence production is equal to that of turbulence dissipation. In addition, the algebraic model needs the turbulence mixing length in order to provide an accurate numerical result. To overcome this shortcoming, more advanced turbulence models that possess less empirical turbulence coefficients are introduced for arc-heated flow (Lee et al. 2007). In this chapter, I introduce three two-equation turbulence models: the k–ε model of Jones and Launder (1972), the k–ω model of Wilcox (1998), and the k–ω SST model of Menter (1994).
where μt is the eddy viscosity, sij is the mean-velocity strain-rate tensor, ρ is the fluid density, k is the turbulent kinetic energy, and δij is the Kronecker delta. The eddy viscosity is defined as a function of the turbulent kinetic energy, k, and the turbulent dissipation rate, ε.
The model coefficients β, γ, σκ and σω denoted with the symbol ф are defined by blending the coefficients of the original k-ω model, denoted as ф1, with those of the transformed k-ε model, denoted as ф2.
Figure 2 shows the typical current distribution in an arc heater along the axial direction.
where Δνl is the band-width for the lth band. For accurate calculation of the radiant flux, a line-by-line calculation (Whiting et al., 1996) is the most desirable approach. However, such a line-by-line calculation requires a huge computational cost. Thus, Sakai and Olejniczak (2003) developed a new three band model that can compute radiative transport equations 400 times faster than the line-by-line calculation without losing accuracy. In this chapter, all calculations are performed by using this three-band radiation model. Details of the three band model are introduced in Sakai and Olejniczak (2003).
The IHF is operated with a 60 MW constricted arc heater that can operates at a pressure range of 1 to 9 atm and an enthalpy level of 7 to 47MJ/kg. In an experiment, Hightower et al. (2002) measured the performance of the IHF arc heater and Sakai and Olejniczak (2003) numerically calculated the flow inside the IHF arc heater. In this section, I compare the calculated results from ARCFLO4 with experimental data and from the data calculated by the ARCFLO3 code which is developed by Sakai and Olejniczak (2003). The calculated voltage, mass averaged enthalpy, chamber pressure, and efficiency are compared in terms of mass flow rate. Results are illustrated for the cases of I=3000A and 6000A. Figure 3 shows calculated and experimental data for the case of I=3000A. The numerical results using three two-equation turbulence models are illustrated. As shown in the figure, the k-ε turbulence model predicted the operational data most accurately. It appears that k-ω turbulence model overestimated the mass-averaged enthalpy and efficiency. The k-ω SST turbulence model predicted mass-averaged enthalpy and chamber pressure fairly well, whereas the calculated voltage and efficiency deviated somewhat from the experimental data. That is, the combination of the k-ε turbulence model and the three-band radiation model seems to be appropriate for arc heater flow calculation.
Figure 4 shows the results for I = 6000A. As shown in the figure, the overall results follow the same tendency as the case of I = 3000A. Again, the computational results of ARCFLO4 predicted the flow inside the arc heater accurately. The combination of the two-equation turbulence model and the three-band radiation model provide accurate performance parameters for the arc heater. Since the numerical solution using two-equation turbulence model does not require user experience for turbulent flows, it is expected that the numerical approach of ARCFLO4 can be applied to a wide range of arc heaters.
The AHF is operated with a 20MW constricted arc heater that has a pressure range of 1 to 9atm and an enthalpy level of 1 to 33MJ/kg. Hightower et al. (2002) measured the performance of the AHF experimentally and Sakai and Olejniczak (2003) computed the corresponding flows using ARCFLO3. In this section, a comparison between computation and experiment is carried out in a manner similar way to previous IHF analyses. The calculated voltage, mass-averaged enthalpy, chamber pressure, and efficiency are compared using experimental data for the cases of I = 1600 and 2000 A. Figure 5 shows results for I = 1600 A. Similar to the IHF cases, the calculated results by ARCFLO4 are in good agreement with the experimental data.
Figure 6 shows the results for I = 2000 A. As shown in the figure, the overall results show a tendency similar to the case of I = 1600 A and are in good agreement with the experimental results. Considering the results described in Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2, we can say that the ARCFLO4 code predicted the arc heater flow accurately for high electric power cases.
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has serviced a 750 kW segmented arc heater since the 1990s, and its operational data are available through the references of Matsuzaki et al. (2002) and Sakai et al. (2007). The JAXA 750 kW segmented arc heater operates at a current between 300 and 700 A and a mass flow rate between 10 and 20 g/s. The constrictor length and diameter are 39 cm and 2.54 cm, respectively. The diameter of the nozzle throat is 2.5 cm. The diameter and the radius of the electrode is 7.6 cm and 1.9 cm, respectively. In this section, a numerical flow calculation of the JAXA 750 kW arc heater is introduced as a low electric power case. The voltage between electrodes, the mass-averaged enthalpy at the nozzle throat, the pressure in the cathode chamber, and the arc heater efficiency are calculated and compared to the experimental data.
Figure 7 shows a comparison of the operational data plotted in terms of mass flow rates. As shown in the figure, the computed operational data are in good agreement with the experimental data. Thus, it is confirmed that the ARCFLO4 simulation of low electric power segmented arc heater flows is valid.
A 150 kW arc heater in Korea was analyzed in order to validate ARCFLO4 for a lower electric power regime. This arc heater is basically a Hules-type heater. However, to stabilize the arc, the constrictor is located at the center of the heater. The details of the configurations are shown in Fig. 8, and the test cases for present analysis are given in Table 1.
Generally, radiant heat flux is mainly generated at the constrictor and has almost zero value at the cathode and anode for the case of a long constrictor. Therefore, the ARCFLO4 code calculates the radiant flux using the assumption of long cylindrical coordinates. However, this 150 kW arc heater has a relatively short constrictor length, so the assumption is not valid. Considering the short length of the constrictor, the calculation of radiant flux was slightly corrected using a configuration factor, as shown in Fig. 10. The details of the correction are available in Han et al., 2011.
Table 2 shows a comparison of the ARCFLO4 numerical results and the experimental results. The table shows that the calculated voltage and pressure are in very good agreement with the experimental data. That is, ARCFLO4 showed good accuracy again for the flow inside the low electric power arc heater.
Considering the results described in Sections 3.1.1 to Sec. 3.1.4, the ARCFLO4 code predicted the flow inside the arc heater accurately for a wide range of electric power (150 kW to 60 MW). It is also confirmed that the turbulence model used in ARCFLO4 reflected the convection physics of turbulence properly near the wall region.
The NASA Ames Research Center developed a segmented arc heater in the 1960s. Currently, NASA Ames has three segmented arc heater facilities: the 20 MW Aerodynamic Heating Facility, the 20 MW Panel Test Facility, and the 60 MW Interactive Heating Facility (Terrazas-Salinas and Cornelison, 1999). In the 1990s, Europe and Japan began to develop segmented arc heaters. In Europe, a 6 MW segmented arc heater was developed and operated with an L3K arc heated facility of the German Aerospace Center (Smith et al., 1996). Recently, 70 MW segmented arc heater was added to the SCIROCCO arc heated facility of the Italian Aerospace Research Center (Russo, 1993). Japan has serviced the 750 kW segmented arc heater since the 1990s. Despite these arc heater development experiences, a design process has been accomplished by only a few research centers and companies. In the development stage, there was probably considerable trial and error since the flow phenomena inside segmented arc heaters had not been characterized. Also, the higher cost would have been spent during the development of the segmented arc heater. In an effort to reduce the difficulties and cost during arc heater development, Lee et al. (2007, 2008) recently developed the ARCFLO4 computational code to study the flow physics in segmented arc heaters. As described in Section.3, the code accurately simulated existing arc heaters under various operating conditions. It predicted well the operational data of the AHF, IHF (Lee et al., 2007, 2008) and JAXA 750 kW arc heater (Lee & Kim, 2010). Since ARCFLO4 can accurately predict operational data and the wall heat energy loss, development costs can be reduced without previous design experience.
In this section, the effects of configuration and input operational conditions on the performance of an arc heater are investigated in order to provide fundamental data for the design of segmented arc heaters. A parametric study is performed to determine the main design variables that strongly affect arc heater performance. First, performance changes in terms of constrictor length, constrictor diameter, and nozzle throat diameter are investigated. Then, performance changes due different input currents and mass flow rates are examined.
The relationship between performance and main design parameters, such as configuration and input operational conditions is investigated. The 750 kW JAXA segmented arc heater is chosen as a baseline model. To study the effect of configuration on arc heater flows, a constrictor length, a constrictor diameter, and a nozzle throat diameter are changed. Then, the input current and mass flow rate are changed to determine the effect of input operational conditions on arc heater flows.
operational data in terms of a constrictor length at specific constrictor diameters. As shown in Fig. 10a, the voltage and the electric power are increased proportionally to the constrictor length. On the other hand, as shown in Figs. 10b and 10c, the effects of constrictor length on the mass-averaged enthalpy and the cathode chamber pressure are relatively small. It is shown that the efficiency decreases as the constrictor length increases. In general, the efficiency is strongly related to the amount of heat energy loss at the arc heater wall. The heat energy loss per unit length increases and the electric power input per unit length decreases, by increasing the constrictor length. Therefore, the longer the constrictor length, the lower the total efficiency becomes.
shows operational data in terms of constrictor diameter. As shown in the figure, the voltage, mass-averaged enthalpy, and efficiency are strongly affected by the constrictor diameter. As shown in Fig. 11a, the voltage and the electric power increase as the constrictor diameter decreases. For the mass-averaged enthalpy, the effect of the constrictor diameter is greater than that of the constrictor length, as shown in Figs. 10b and 11 b. In Fig. 11c, we note that the cathode chamber pressure is weakly affected by the constrictor diameter. Finally, Fig. 11d shows that the efficiency decreases as the constrictor diameter decreases.
To understand the change in efficiency, we consider the heat energy loss on the arc heater wall as illustrated in Fig. 12. In the figure, as the constrictor diameter decreases, both the conductive and radiant energy losses increase, and thus the efficiency decreases. Generally, if a constrictor diameter decreases, the quantity of injecting working gas per unit area increases. Thus, the axial speed of the working gas increases, and thus a viscous dissipation phenomenon due to turbulence is strongly generated near the wall. Therefore, the heat energy loss by thermal conduction increases as the constrictor diameter decreases. Moreover, the distance from the core to the wall is small; thus, only a small amount of radiation is absorbed by the surrounding gas on its way to the wall.
The effect of the ratio of constrictor length to constrictor diameter, L/D, on the stability of an arc discharge is investigated. Figure 13 shows the temperature distribution in the radial direction. In the figure, we can define a region where the temperature is greater than 9,000 K and the current density is high, as an arc column. It is shown that the thickness of the arc column is large at the upstream region of the constrictor where L/D is greater than 30. Also, the arc column broadens as L/D increases. If an arc column broadens, there is not enough room for the arc column to fluctuate and the stability of an arc discharge improves. Generally, it is known that L/D should be greater than 30 to stabilize an arc discharge (Sakai et al., 2007).
To investigate the effect of nozzle throat diameter on the arc heater flow, the nozzle throat diameter is chosen to vary from 1.0 to 2.0cm, while other parameters are fixed. The length and the diameter of the constrictor are 60.0 cm and 2.0 cm, respectively. Figure 14 shows operational data in terms of the nozzle throat diameter. As shown in the figure, the nozzle throat diameter does not affect operational data, such as electric voltage, mass averaged enthalpy, and efficiency. However, the chamber pressure is strongly affected by the nozzle throat diameter since the pressure is inversely proportional to nozzle area for a fixed mass flow rate. The pressure decreases as the nozzle throat diameter increase.
When designing a segmented arc heater, a range of input currents must be determined as well as arc heater configurations. In this section, the effects of the input current on arc heater flow are investigated. The input current is defined to vary from 100 to 900 A. The length and the diameter of the constrictor are 60.0 cm and 2.0 cm, respectively. The diameter of the nozzle throat is 1.5 cm.
Figure 15 shows operational data in terms of input current at the following mass flow rates: 10, 15, and 20 g/s. Figure 15a shows that the electric power is almost proportional to the input current, while the voltage decreases as the input current increases. The reason is that constrictor length dominantly determines the voltage value. Accordingly, the mass-averaged enthalpy and pressure increase under the condition of constant mass flow rate, as shown in Figs. 15b and c. Efficiency decreases as the input current increases.
Efficiency is strongly related to temperature distribution. As the input current increases, the core temperature increases and the arc column broadens. Generally, if the current increases, the temperature increases due to high Joule heating. On the other hand, strong radiation prohibits the core temperature from increasing. Instead, it makes the temperature distribution to be flat at the core region and arc column broader, which leads to enhanced radiation throughout the wall. Also, the temperature gradient near the wall increases, which increases the heat energy loss by thermal conduction. As a consequence, efficiency decreases due to high heat energy loss caused by radiation and thermal conduction.
because that the ionization rate decreases due to the high mass flow rate inside the arc column. As shown in Fig. 16b, the mass-averaged enthalpy decreases as the mass flow rate increases. On the other hand, in Fig. 16c, the cathode chamber pressure increases as the mass flow rate increases. In addition, efficiency increases as the mass flow rate increases. Figure 17 shows the temperature distribution along the radial direction at the middle cross section, which is 30 cm from the constrictor starting point. As shown in the figure, the core temperature decreases and the arc column becomes narrower as the mass flow rate increases. This temperature distribution makes the voltage higher and reduces the energy loss due to radiation, as shown in Fig. 18. On the other hand, viscous dissipation by turbulence occurs noticeably near the wall due to the high mass flow rate and high axial speed of the working gas. Hence, both the temperature gradient near the wall and the heat energy loss due to thermal conduction increase, as shown in the Fig. 18. Consequently, the more the mass flow rate increases, the higher the total energy loss becomes. However, as a result, the efficiency increases slowly along with the increase in mass flow rate because the total heat energy loss increases more slowly than the total electric power input.The mass flow rate also has an influence on the stability of arc discharge. Figure 17 shows that the arc column becomes narrower with increased mass flow rate. That is, the stability of the arc discharge becomes worse as the mass flow rate increases. In a real design process, the maximum value of the mass flow rate should be determined considering the stability of the arc discharge for a given arc heater configuration.
In Section 3, the numerical code, ARCFLO4, is validated using the real operating data of the arc heater. In Section 4.1, a parametric study is performed for the various design parameters of the arc heater. Since the accuracy of the numerical results is rigorously proven, the database obtained by the parametric study is quite reliable. Therefore, it is expected that the database can be used in arc heater design processes. If target parameters such as total pressure and total enthalpy are given, the configuration and operational conditions such as the size of the constrictor and the nozzle throat, and the range of the input current and the mass flow rate, can be directly determined through the database based on the parametric study. Moreover, in the design of a cooling system, the database can be effectively used since the CFD code predicts the wall heat flux value quite well, i.e., if the heat flux value on the arc heater is known, the size of the cooling system and pipe configuration can be determined directly.
The accuracy level of current CFD analysis on arc heater flows is introduced. It is shown that current state-of-the art CFD technologies can predict the plasma flow inside the arc heater well. Both the high input power cases (60MW, 20MW) and the low input power cases (750kW, 150kW) are validated successfully using the ARCFLO4 computational code. The k-ε turbulence model combined with the 3-band radiation model provides good solutions for arc heater flows. Moreover, the possibility of the present computational code as a design tool for arc heater is introduced. A parametric study is performed to investigate the relation between arc heater performance and the design parameters. In the case of constrictor length, as the constrictor length increases, the voltage and electrical power increase while the efficiency decreases. It is also shown that the voltage, the mass-averaged enthalpy, and the efficiency are strongly affected by the constrictor diameter. The mass-averaged enthalpy seems to be affected more by the constrictor diameter than by the constrictor length. From the view point of arc stability, as the L/D ratio increases, the arc column broadens, which means that the stability of the arc improves. Based on a parametric study of the nozzle throat diameter, it is determined that the nozzle throat diameter strongly affects the pressure. The effects of input operational conditions such as input current and mass flow rate are also discussed. It appears that the electric power increases as the input current and the mass flow rate increase. Moreover, arc stability becomes worse as the mass flow rate increases or the input current decreases. It appears that if the configuration of the arc heater is known, the minimum value of input current and maximum value of the mass flow rate can be determined using the numerical parametric study results. Therefore, it is expected that the ARCFLO4 code could play an important role in the design process of arc heater.

Hearing instead of visual? Boss table audio AR
The audio AR sunglasses released by Boss were launched earlier this year as concept models such as augmented reality glasses, as Snapchat announced. But the boss named the official name of these glasses as FRAMES-A.
This product is in the form of sunglasses, but there is no visual special effect using AR. However, audio AR technology was installed. It is a differentiation point called an augmented reality by using a non-visual sound. This product uses a 9-axis sensor mounted on the main body and captures head movement, and informs the user of the information according to the current location through the smartphone GPS linked to it. In other words, it can be said that it is like a voice guide that searches for oneself. In addition to that, you can give quiz information or play music.
You can also call a voice assistant, such as Siri or Google assistant, via the built-in microphone. However, it does not support Alexa yet. The dongle on the right side of the body also has a multifunctional button for controlling the music.
The product, which is based on AR, which uses auditory rather than visual, is still under development, but it will be announced during SXSW, which will be held in Austin next March. The design of the frame can be selected from two rounds, such as Way, which is a Rayban simple model. Both models are sport lenses that block 99% of the ultraviolet light, but the polarization option is not mentioned separately.
The price is estimated at $ 199. For more information, please click here .

Sir Thomas Burdett, 1st Baronet
Sir Thomas Burdett, 1st Baronet (14 September 1668 – 14 April 1727)
An Irish politician and baronet.
Born at Garrahill in County Carlow, he was the son of Thomas Burdett and his wife Catherine Kennedy, daughter of Sir Robert Kennedy, 1st Baronet. Burdett was educated at Trinity College, Dublin and served as High Sheriff of Carlow in 1701.
Burdett entered the Irish House of Commons in 1704, sitting for Carlow County to 1713. Subsequently he was Member of Parliament (MP) for Carlow Borough until 1715 and then again for Carlow County until his death in 1727. On 11 July 1723, Burdett was created a Baronet, of Dunmore, in the County of Carlow, with a special remainder to the heirs of his sister Anne, wife of Walter Weldon, who sat also in the Parliament of Ireland. In 1725, he was appointed Governor of County Carlow, a post he held for the next two years.
He married firstly Honora Boyle, daughter of Michael Boyle, Lord Chancellor of Ireland and Archbishop of Armagh in 1700. She died ten years later and Burdett remarried Martha Vigors, daughter of Bartholomew Vigors, Bishop of Ferns and Leighlin, in 1715. He died, aged 58 and was succeeded by his son only William by his second wife.

Next, fill your bin with snow, lots of it. If you do not have any snow at the moment, you can simply use cotton balls or use colored ice like we did in this post.
Once your bin is filled, add a few drops of blue food coloring to your dish and then fill it with water.
Sculpt your mini world. I attempted to make a hilltop as well as an area that the penguins could slide down.
Invite your preschooler to come and play, if they are not already begging to do so.
Once your preschooler is fully into playing with the Arctic mini world, start adding to their vocabulary. I told J that she is playing with her arctic bin. She then asked what arctic meant.
We also discussed the different animals in her bin. She noted a few differences between the emperor penguin and the other penguins. She attempted to say Beluga whale, and it was the most adorable thing ever.
The scientist in her then took over, and she started to add the snow to the water. She realized that the snow melted and eventually more snow was added to the pool.
Once that was done, she decided to throw the animals into the basin to see if the water would then splash on the snow and color it blue.
Be sure to follow my preschool sensory activities board for more ideas as well as the Learning 2 Walk Facebook page as I share a ton of resources.
My kids have started falling in love with small world play. I haven't colored my water yet. Was it messy?
No it wasnt messy at all Amanda. You shoyld totally go for it.
What a cool and fun sensory bin! I love play that allows them to explore and just have fun.
Ice cubes or cotton balls Cerys.
That looks like so much fun. I love your photo with the penguin diving in with the reflection captured in the water. That's awesome!
Thanks Theresa!! I would love to say it was all planned but it was purely coincidental.
So fun! My son would love this.
This looks so fun! My 3 year old would love this!!!
Small world play is so fun and something I remember fondly from my childhood!
What a fun sensory idea for kids we are always looking for sensory ideas that teach. Thanks for sharing!

Biden: I Am 'Absolutely Comfortable' With Same-Sex Marriage
"men marrying men, women marrying women."
Madeleine Morgenstern
Vice President Joe Biden said Sunday he's "absolutely comfortable" with same-sex marriage, making him the highest Obama administration official to indicate support for the issue.
President Barack Obama remains formally opposed to same-sex marriage, though his position has been said to be "evolving." On NBC's "Meet the Press," host David Gregory asked Biden about his own views.
"And you're comfortable with same-sex marriage now?" Gregory asked.
"I am vice president of the United States of America," Biden said. "The president sets the policy. I am absolutely comfortable with the fact that men marrying men, women marrying women, and heterosexual men and women marrying another are entitled to the same exact rights, all the civil rights, all the civil liberties. And quite frankly, I don't see much of a distinction beyond that."
He said he "can't speak for" the administration coming out in support of same-sex marriage, but said Obama has been a champion for gay rights.
"The president continues to fight, whether it's Don't Ask, Don't Tell or whether it is making sure across the board that you cannot discriminate," Biden said.
He said his measure of an issue is when the "social culture" begins to embrace it.
"I think 'Will and Grace' probably did more to educate the American public than almost anything anyone's ever done so far," Biden said, referring to the NBC sitcom that ended in 2006. "People fear that which is different. Now they're beginning to understand."
NBC's Chuck Todd said Biden's office told him "he was speaking for his own evolving on marriage not for the admin[istration]."

While Manchester can't quite claim Italy's weather, it can offer the visitor a taste of summer at Fresco Freddo's, a traditional Italian gelateria. Conveniently situated right next to the Palace Theatre, Fresco Freddo's serves 22 delicious flavours of authentic Italian gelato and sorbet, and also dishes up waffles, hot desserts and cakes. Our favourite is the totally fat-free (and vegan) dark chocolate sorbet, with the hazelnut gelato coming a close second. Lower in fat than ice cream, and with no artificial flavours or colours, there's no excuse not to indulge.
Relive your school days with a visit to Bittersweet traditional sweet shop, found in the trendy suburb of Chorlton. Jars of colourful sweets adorn the shelves, including old favourites such as chocolate limes, rhubarb and custards, cola cubes, and sherbet lemons. With penny sweets for those who like to mix and match and imported salty liquorice for customers with a more sophisticated palate, you'll find it almost impossible to leave empty-handed.
After you've filled your bag with sweets, a short walk up the road will take you to Tea Hive, one of Chorlton's many independent cafes. It specialises in serving a wide range of loose leaf teas and freshly baked cakes on beautiful vintage crockery. Even those on a gluten-free, vegan or wheat-free diet can find something delicious to indulge in. The lunch deal is a true bargain and includes soup, a sandwich and a cake of your choice.
If you're after a truly powerful chocolate fix then leave the Dairy Milk in the confectionary aisle and head for the Chocolate Café in Ramsbottom. Its high quality, award-winning chocolates are handmade on site and sold from the shop downstairs, whilst real chocoholics can spoil themselves with a slice or two of the café's unique chocolate pizza. The busy cafe upstairs is worth a visit for a cup of traditional hot chocolate, or South American hot chocolate made with pure Colombian cocoa and mixed spices.
The craze for all things cupcake shows no sign of abating and Manchester is home to plenty of cupcake shops and cafes. One of the best, and most central, is Hey Little Cupcake, found in the city's newest development, Spinningfields. The new breakfast range of cupcakes (including Nutella and banana pancake) may not be the healthiest breakfast choice, but they'll certainly give your morning a kick!

In response to COVID-19, Cisco is handing out free 90-day Webex business licenses
Pragya Sehgal
Collab devices like the Webex Desk Pro
Cisco has come forward to help those impacted by the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) by offering free 90-day Webex licenses to businesses who are not Webex customers, Cisco announced on March 2.
The company has also enhanced its free Webex account offerings to help its existing customers meet their increasingly changing needs as they enable a significantly greater number of remote workers. The additional capabilities include no time restrictions (unlimited usage), toll dial-in option (in addition to the existing VoIP feature), and the ability to support up to 100 participants.
"Effective immediately, we've expanded the capabilities on our free Webex offer in all countries where it is available, not only those impacted by COVID-19," the company wrote in a blog post.
Since the outbreak of the disease, there has been an unprecedented increase in the number of people working remotely around the world.
The traffic on the Webex backbone connecting China-based Webex users to their global workplaces has increased as much as 22 times due to global circumstances resulting from COVID-19, says Cisco.
During the same period, it also noted four to five times as many users in Singapore, South Korea and Japan, with the average time spent on Webex video meetings increasing twofold among users there. Moreover, the company said, free sign-ups in impacted countries are up seven times, on average, over pre-outbreak.
The company's free Webex offer and paid subscription option are available in the following countries:
Canada, Australia, Germany, France, New Zealand, Austria, Cyprus, Finland, Hong Kong, Belgium, Vietnam, Japan, Bulgaria, Switzerland, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, Sweden, Croatia, Malaysia, Latvia, Israel, Czech Republic, Norway, Malta, Denmark, Ireland, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia, Portugal, Italy, Gibraltar, Romania, Slovenia, Greece, Spain, Thailand, Netherlands, Hungary, Luxembourg, Slovakia, Ukraine, UAE (United Arab Emirates), United States, United Kingdom and South Africa.
Free Webex offer is available in Brazil, Mexico, Macau, Indonesia and India; paid subscription can be availed by contacting sales.
Microsoft follows suit
On the heels of Cisco's announcement, Microsoft announced March 3 that it's making Microsoft Teams free for six months.
"At Microsoft, the health and safety of employees, customers, partners and communities is our top priority. By making Teams available to all for free for six months, we hope that we can support public health and safety by making remote work even easier," Tweeted JP Courtois, Microsoft's EVP and president, Microsoft global sales, marketing and operations.

From day one Michele was focused on gathering all the necessary information to determine a satisfying sales price, to coach us on property preparations, and to prepare marketing materials.
The results exceeded our expectations on every front. The property sold in record time with a completed transaction in less than a month from the day we engaged Michele in the process. Additionally Michele made the process seem quite easy, she assisted in necessary preparations, and quickly answered all the questions that inevitably come up in the sales process. Right up to the final closing day she shepherded the process every step of the way. "Service after the sale" was also quite remarkable.


Parenting is about attention and care. A child must be guided and protected from infancy to independence. Caretaking of any kind is about responsibility and awareness. People with special needs or ageing parents require thoughtful and protracted oversight. In the world of the vulnerable, even the mundane can become perilous. A child can fall in a swimming pool, be locked in a car on a hot day, become lost in the woods or even abducted.
Dristee's technological design offers a unique and comprehensive device to address a broad spectrum of these problems. Dristee is a wearable device providing realtime detection coupled with wireless 4G Network and GPS, Bluetooth connection to locate, sense, and monitor a wide variety of safety and health perimeters.
Let's take a look at some of dristee's unique advantages..
All features listed below are fully integrated and connected between the device and caretaker via smartphones and other electronic devices. The connections between the device and monitoring receptacles can be made with up to five users.
Detects contact with water utilizing sensors without the need of any additional system installations.
Dristee's detection capabilities monitors ambient temperature continuously effectively warning of excessive heat or cold.
The device utilize an accelerometer to alert of abrupt changes in the wearer's movements and speed.
Pre-programmable SMS/MMS sends Notification to all designated phone numbers during any and all alert situations.
The device also incorporated heart rate monitor which might prove critical in a variety of situations.
A unique locking mechanism integrated with the wristband prevents unauthorized removal of the device. The locking mechanism has dual operating mechanism – Unlocking via the app or a special key that is provided with each device.
Additional temperature sensors monitor body temperature to alert for hyperthermia or hypothermia.
Connectivity and wireless capabilities include 4G LTE, GPS and Bluetooth.
The device is water proof and water resistance to a depth of 30 to 50 m.
Dristee employs stainless steel wires embedded in the band to withstand attempts at removal with knife or scissors.
The Dristee app displays a user profile, employing such data as recent photo, birthday, hair color, weight, height, eye color.
Dristee has the capability to predefine as needed up to five geo-fence locations, each of which can incorporate date, daily schedules and this feature can employ the designation precise distances as required.
Retail Price: $299.00 – Retail Monthly subscription: $12.95/Month.
The water sensor technology employs a novel design that utilizes the conduction property of water. The Water Sensor has two electrodes, one transmitting and the other receiving the signal pulses so that in the presence of significant water transmission between the electrodes is disrupted and an alert is sent. Partial or minor exposures to water, for example rain, is insufficient to disrupt transmission and hence false alarms is avoided.
The device is fully patented and employs the latest semiconductor and information technology. A critical challenge in dristee's development was to design advanced miniaturization required for its small size and tightly integrated systems. To meet these challenges we developed and tested prototypes such as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) suitable to a small wearable and a programmable logic, FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) platform.
The systems hardware does not dependent on a single component but changes as needed to provide optimal GSM and GPS functionalities. Whatever communication system is used (GSM, CDMA, 4GLTE etc.), our design capabilities are flexible enough to employ the specific component used for notifications to smartphones in the event of an emergency.
I am a mother, I am socially active and I am deeply engaged with the rights and safety of children, of our fragile fellow humans with special needs and a deep loving concern for the aging members of our society. Though born and educated in India, my life was somewhat privileged but even from that relatively secure position I could see societal failings that put the very young, the very needy and the very old at risk.
apparent. First, specific needs, risks and dangers must be identified and second, once recognized, one must offer effective technology to counter two basic enemies of success – disregard and unawareness. Important keys to societal and family safety are precise information, quick communication and responsive support between everyone involved.
design and technology but personally satisfying in answering the needs of my own heart and conscience.

Metta World Peace Explains His Twitter Approach
By: Jeff Eisenband
On Election Day 2016, many Americans anxiously awaited results of the race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. Books will be written, films made and textbooks printed about one of the most significant days in U.S. history.
Metta World Peace was active in politics that day, but in a different way. He began spreading the hashtag, "#ifmettawaspresident" and his fans jumped onboard. It started as a joke, but it turned serious really fast.
#ifmettawaspresident , I would put a limit on the size a fake booty could be.
Some are way too big
— Metta World Peace (@MettaWorldPeace) November 8, 2016
#ifmettawaspresident , I would have my secretary of defense be Ben Wallace.
#ifmettawaspresident , I would have Saturday Salsa night in the White House.
People need to stop say white rascist country. I have white friends , and black friends and Asian and native etc.. be the change #dontleave pic.twitter.com/dl2Jqgk7YR
The reason you can not leave ! pic.twitter.com/0gtcsr2RQY
On a day so many people expressed extreme emotion on social media or avoided it all costs, why did World Peace stay so level-headed?
"I just comment on things that need to be commented on," World Peace says. "Sometimes, people back it up. They think it's a brilliant comment. But for the most part, I think people just need to learn how to have good families, learn how to be good partners, learn how to be good Fathers and good Moms, learn how to be helpful in the community and definitely fight for what's right. You've got to be willing to fight for what you think's right and what you believe in."
World Peace is in his 18th professional basketball season. At 37, he still has a role on a mostly young Lakers team -- playing for former teammate Luke Walton -- but he is dabbling in other interests. This week, World Peace will actually serve as a writer and actor for The 5th Quarter, a mockumentary series from go90.
World Peace says, "Whatever's fun, I want to go toward." For the time being, that does not mean he is building his 2020 presidential campaign.
"I think it's important to be involved in politics. I don't think you have to be a politician to be involved with politics that affect your life.
"I like to kind of bring light, bring some positivity to a situation."
In terms of the current president-elect, World Peace says he has never met Trump, but can say, "His hotels look nice. Hopefully he does a good job as president."
World Peace says he has met Barack Obama a handful of times, but he does not know the president personally. But he is impressed by one aspect of Obama's life that appears to have been maintained while in the White House.
"His family is great, and I think that's a good thing," World Peace says.
World Peace will continue sharing thoughts on social media when appropriate. If he can be a positive voice in the country, he finds such comments necessary.
"I'm active now," he says, asked if he will ramp up his work in the community when he eventually retires. "I do a lot of things with mental health. I think it's very important to do a lot of things on my Twitter, speaking about being a good father and a good partner. I think that's more important than politics."
On Election Day, World Peace used Twitter to play his part in calming a divided country on social media. In a critical time in the U.S., World Peace is using his vast profile to offer his form of consulting.
And on Wednesday, World Peace will have some fun. In his specific episode of The 5th Quarter, a 10-year-old named Sylvester, who is blind, gets a chance to watch one basketball game in between eye surgeries. Sylvester gets to wish for Ron Artest, not Kobe Bryant, to take the Lakers' final shot of Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals.
World Peace says he has a future in entertainment writing after basketball, and fans will get a glimpse of his creative mind here.

This little red box is a 1980s 3-door Mitsubishi Pajero, and we want one. Launched long before the SUV/crossover craze arrived, the humble Pajero came from a time when Japanese off-roaders ruled, and they really could go off-road. This made them horrible to drive on-road of course, but back in the '80s if you bought a Pajero there was probably a good chance that you did actually want to take it away from the black stuff.
This brilliant Technic recreation of one of the finest '80s 4x4s comes from Kevin Moo of Eurobricks, and not only does it look absolutely spot-on it's packing some neat functionality too, with remote control drive and steering, LED head and tail lights, working suspension, and an opening hood, doors and tailgate. There's lots more to see of Kevin's remote controlled Mitsubishi Pajero model at the Eurobricks discussion forum – Click the link above to make a jump to 1982.


I'm thankful for hot showers, clean clothes, and a soft bed.
I'm thankful for a family that loves me and my multitude of flaws unconditionally—and shows it in practical ways.
I'm thankful for good music that stirs the soul.
I'm thankful for healthy food to strengthen our bodies.
I'm thankful for the opportunity to pursue my chiefest dream of becoming a book illustrator.
I'm thankful for golden sunrises and sparrows picking breakfast off the ground.
I'm thankful for a solid, time-loved house that keeps us warm and dry.

Historique de l'unité

La  d'infanterie allemande est créée le , à partir de la . L'état-major de la  était basé à Metz, première place forte du Reich pendant l'annexion allemande. La division appartenait au  Armee-Korps. Aux côtés des Westphaliens, de nombreux Mosellans servirent dans cette division.

Elle forme avec la  d'infanterie le  corps d'armée allemand. Elle combat à la bataille de Longwy, puis participe à la poursuite des troupes françaises à travers le massif de l'Argonne. Elle est engagée dans la bataille de la Marne et doit ensuite se replier. À partir du mois d' et jusqu'au mois d', la division est engagée dans des combats de tranchées violents dans le massif de l'Argonne.

En , la  est engagée dans la bataille de Verdun. En 1917, elle combat lors des batailles des monts de Champagne, de Passchendaele et de Cambrai. En 1918, la division fait partie des divisions d'attaque des offensives de printemps de l'armée allemande. Elle combat alors lors de l'opération Michaël, sur l'Aisne, puis lors de la seconde bataille de la Marne. Après cette bataille, la division est impliquée dans les combats défensifs de l'armée allemande jusqu'à la signature de l'armistice.

Could someone give an example where this axiom 1*0=0 is absolutely true?
The null hypothesis is that nothing, zero is a physical reality based mathematical conception which we can perceive as an energy, matter, information, space, time free state. Revealing as our common physical, mathematical, philosophical origin, a physical reality based mathematical reference point. I state that in proportion to this physical reality based sense(conception) everything has some kind of mathematically expressible value. Space, time, information, energy, matter.
The hypothesis is based on the fact that space expands and time evolves which points out that our current moment is bigger than the moment before. Following this path backward on the timeline of the physical reality we arrive to the lowest possible physical state, which I perceive as a space(time), energy, matter, information-free state. 0. In proportion to this state, everything has value. Everything has mathematically expressible value. Space, time, energy, matter and information.
What are ##1## and ##0##, i.e. about which mathematical sets do we speak here?
They are usually the neutral elements of a multiplicative (1), resp. additive group (0). As long as there is more than one group and one written multiplicatively and the other additively, they are distinct per definition. So yes, absolutely true per construction.
We do not debate philosophical questions here - at least not anymore. You can find a lot of existing threads to those keywords, so if you are interested I recommend to do a forum search. The term reality has a clear definition for us: Real is what is measurable. Mathematical terms cannot be measured, they are a tool for description and prediction.
I'm not quite sure what you want to say, and even less, what this has to do with mathematics.
As I mentioned above, since we do not discuss philosophical aspects of reality and existence, this thread is closed.

Bar code scanners are common business tools for point of sale transactions and inventory management. Motorola makes a bar code scanner under the Symbol brand that plugs into computers via USB ports, making it a useful accessory for a laptop. The maturation of USB as a connection port technology means that adding scanners (and other USB devices) is usually a matter of plug and play – the device gets plugged in, and it's ready to go.
Insert the interface cable into the back of the scanner. There are two interface cables available -- one that ends in a USB plug and one that ends in an RS-232 serial cable plug. Unless your laptop is very old, you probably want the USB cable. The plug has a shim-catch, the same way that telephone cables or Ethernet cables do. You'll hear a soft "click" when the cable has seated itself into the back of the scanner. If needed, adjust the cable to make sure that the cable is securely fastened.
Plug the USB cable into a USB port in your computer.
Press the scanning trigger on the scanner (this may be a button on some models), and scan the test bar code in the manual that came with the scanner. This is a test to make sure the scanner is working. For USB scanners, scan the barcode labeled "HID Keyboard Emulation." If the scanner isn't working, unplug it from the computer and plug it in again to reload the driver.
Start your bar code tracking software. Scan bar codes on your products and check the results. If there are any errors, use a lint-free cloth to wipe the scanner-head. Further troubleshooting tips can be found in the product manual provided by Motorola for your model of scanner.

EIPR launches "Closed on Security Grounds" campaign to promote fair law for the construction of churches
The Ministry of Transitional Justice and Egyptian churches announced they had drafted a bill on church construction that would soon be issued and fulfill the terms of Article 235 of the constitution, which requires the parliament to issue a law regulating the construction and renovation of churches in its first legislative session to guarantee Christians' freedom of worship.
The construction and renovation of churches and other Christian religious structures is one of the principal drivers of sectarian tension and attacks in Egypt, which are manifested as violations of the freedom of belief and worship and associated constitutional rights.
The situation is particularly grave since these violations are perpetrated by state bodies and social groups and forces alike. The government continues to rely on Hamayouni Decree, issued in the mid-19th century, and the al-Ezabi Pasha codes dating to the early 20th century to regulate the construction of churches, which make building or renovating an existing church a arduous, complex process. These discriminatory policies have fostered a social culture that rejects the presence of new churches or the renovation of existing ones. In fact, recent weeks have seen several instances in which Copts' property was attacked in the wake of rumors that their homes would be converted into churches.
As part of efforts by the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights to promote freedom of religion and belief and associated rights—most significantly, to build and renovate churches and religious structures—it is launching a campaign titled "Closed on Security Grounds: for a Fair Law on Church Construction."
The campaign aims to familiarize the public with the problems involved in the construction and repair of churches, their causes, and the security and administrative bodies' treatment of the issue through a set of short films that tell real stories from several governorates about the injustices faced by Coptic citizens who attempt to practice their religious rites. The campaign also provides information about the most important decrees and court rulings associated with church construction, and it will sponsor activities and meetings with interested parties about the newly drafted bill.
The EIPR hopes through this campaign to help develop the awareness of officials, parliamentarians, and the media of the nature of the problem and how the authorities deal with it. At the same time, we hope to promote the issuance of a law that will uphold the right of freedom of belief to allow, rather than restrict, the construction of churches.

It's safe to say Chelsea fans were not pleased with their team's performance against Liverpool and they held no punches back expressing their anger on Twitter.
While the whole team was not up to it, Gonzalo Higuain and Willian bore the brunt of Chelsea fans' anguish.
• I don't want to see Higuaín in a Chelsea shirt again.
• Hazard needs to play at LW.
• We need to sign proven (in prime) goal scorers we can't really on Hazard.
Also HIGUAIN is trash, straight trash!
Yes we created two of our best opportunities when he came on that but that was due to hazard being at LW.
I'd give Willian a piggyback to Barcelona if it meant he never came back.
Willian with a solid 10/10 for Liverpool today.
Willian absolute trash. One way ticket to Barcelona. Don't even want any money for him, just take him for free. Rubbish.


Can i ask? What is the normal usage for memory when idle?
mine is 3gb usage with nothing run.
cpu is 1%, and gpu nothing.
You can take a look at the processes that are running under Windows task manager.
There are a solid amount of Windows tasks that can run in the background that can eat RAM at idle. There are also settings in Kasperky that are like 'Adaptive threat scanning' where the program will run in the background and scan your files constantly to try to catch any viruses that may appear.
so my usage is not normal?
It's not abnormal, but you might have to turn some things off.


very easily using some tool. In min time, You can view more related tutorials on THIS PAGE.

August 30 is Ernest Rutherford's birthday. Rutherford is the New Zealand-born British physicist who is considered the Father of Nuclear Physics.
Rutherford is directly responsible for a number of important discoveries involving the study of nuclear science and radioactivity. He was the first to outline the rules governing radioactive decay and how it involved changes from one element to another in the case of alpha and beta decay. He also came up with the terms alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. He identified alpha radiation was identical to a helium nucleus. Rutherford identified the concept of the half-life of a radioactive substance half of any amount of the substance took the same amount of time to decay. He showed that the nucleus of an atom is a dense, positively charged object. He coined the term proton for the positively charged part of the atom's nucleus. Rutherford was awarded the 1908 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his investigations into the disintegration of elements and the chemistry of radioactive substances.
He very nearly had to give up physics after graduation. His undergraduate degree was a Bachelor of Arts in Pure Mathematics, Latin, Applied Mathematics, English, French, and Physics. He continued his studies into physics and mathematics and concentrated on the study of electricity and magnetism and earned his Master of Arts. After all this study, he found finding a permanent job difficult in New Zealand as a physicist or a school teacher. He knew a scholarship was generally available to study in an English school every other year. He decided to return to school and try for this scholarship. He considered returning to study medicine but instead chose chemistry. When the scholarship became available, Rutherford was one of two candidates up for selection. He was not the one the University chose. Fortunately for him, the one that was chosen could not accept and Rutherford got the scholarship.
This scholarship took him to Cambridge under J. J. Thompson at the Cavendish Laboratory. He was given the task of experimenting with radio wave transmission in gases. He managed to detect radio waves over a distance of half a mile which was the record for a brief time before Marconi heralded in radio. After Henri Becquerel and the Curies announced their discoveries of radiation, he shifted his focus to this new field. This would be the beginning of the many important discoveries mentioned earlier.
Rutherford was a mentor to many important names of nuclear physics. One was James Chadwick, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1935 for discovering the neutron which Rutherford had predicted to exist. Another was Niels Bohr, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922 for the theory of how electrons orbited Rutherford's nucleus. Henry Moseley, who established atomic numbers identify an element, John Cockroft and Ernest Walton, the team that built the first high energy accelerator, Robert Oppenheimer, later to be known as the father of the atomic bomb, and Hans Geiger, inventor of the Geiger tube to detect radiation all worked under Rutherford's direction at Cambridge.
Rutherford is a national hero in his native New Zealand where his likeness is on the $100 note. Element 104 is named rutherfordium in his honor.
1940 – Joseph John Thomson died.
Thomson was a British physicist who was awarded the 1906 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work involving the conduction of electricity in gases. He is best known for the discovery of the electron. He studied the electric discharge of a cathode ray tube and believed it was made up of particles where most scientists believed emitted cathode rays. Thomson calculated these bodies had a large charge to mass ratio and he estimated the value of the charge itself.
In 1904, Thomson proposed a model of the atom as a sphere of positive matter with negative electrons positioned based on electrostatic forces.
1928 – Wilhelm Wien died.
Wien was a German physicist who was awarded the 1911 Nobel Prize in Physics for his laws involving the radiation of heat.He determined a blackbody curve at any temperature is determined from the blackbody curve at any other temperature by displacing the wavelength of the emission energy. This is known as Wien's displacement law.
He determined a blackbody curve at any temperature is determined from the blackbody curve at any other temperature by displacing the wavelength of the emission energy. The peak of this curve is inversely proportional to the absolute temperature of the radiating body. This is known as Wien's displacement law.
Hilleman was an American biologist who developed more vaccines than any other single scientist. Eight of the fourteen current routine vaccinations were developed by him: measles, mumps, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, chickenpox, meningitis, pneumonia and Haemophilus influenzae bacteria. He has been credited as the scientist who has saved the most lives in the 20th century.
1912 – Edward Mills Purcell was born.
Purcell was an American physicist who shares the 1952 Nobel Prize in Physics with Felix Bloch for their independent discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR).
Purcell and Harold Ewen were the first to observe the 21-centimeter line of hydrogen in space which revealed the spiral structure of the Milky Way galaxy.
1907 – John William Mauchly was born.
Mauchly was an American engineer who, with J. Presper Eckert, invented the first general purpose electronic computer ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer). The computer was built for the United States Army to calculate ballistic trajectories.
The two men formed the first computer company, the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation (EMCC). They would design the EDVAC (Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer), BINAC (BINary Automatic Computer), and UNIVAC (UNIVersal Automatic Computer) computers that helped launch the electronic computer industry.
1884 – Theodor H.E. Svedberg was born.
Svedberg was a Swedish chemist who was awarded the 1926 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work with colloids. Colloids are homogeneous mixtures in which the dispersed particles do not settle out such as milk, paint, or smoke.
He also invented the ultracentrifuge to separate colloids using centrifugal force. In the study of colloids and centrifuges, the SI unit of svedberg is named in his honor and is equal to 10-13 seconds.
1871 – Ernest Rutherford was born.
1852 – Jacobus Henricus van't Hoff was born.
Van't Hoff was a Dutch chemist who was awarded the first Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1901 for his discovery of the laws of chemical dynamics and osmotic pressure in solutions. He also demonstrated that some isomers of carbon atoms structures could be explained if the four valence electrons arranged themselves into a tetrahedron. His work on solutions showed dilute solutions follow the same mathematical properties describing gases.

Why special court should be established for corruption cases, by ICPC

ICPC Tasks State Govts. On Integrity, Transparency And Accountability
The Acting Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC), Musa Abubakar, has supported calls for the establishment of special courts for corruption cases.
Abubakar said this in his lecture titled: Corruption, Economic and Financial Crimes: Special Courts to the Rescue, delivered at the fifth Criminal Justice Reform Conference organised by the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) in Asaba, Delta State.
He noted that the creation of special courts for corruption cases would remove bottlenecks associated with the adjudication of corruption matters in the conventional courts.
His words: "Establishing a special court to adjudicate corruption and other financial crimes is one thing we have longed for since the establishment of our commission.
"The proposal will no doubt put flesh to the provision of Section 61 (3) of the ICPC Act 2000, which requires that states chief judges should designate a court specifically for corruption cases and other related matters.
"The clamour for the establishment of such special courts is borne out of the desire to ensure expeditious disposal of such corruption and financial crimes cases. Instances abound where cases pending in our conventional courts are stagnated and unduly delayed."
He further argued that the creation of special courts would free-up judges from other responsibilities in view of the fact that most of them were overloaded with cases.
He disclosed that a recent research by the ICPC into the reasons for delays in the disposal of corruption cases found that assigning too many cases to one judge was one of the major causes for delays.
It also revealed that 83 per cent of the respondents endorsed the creation of specialised courts to handle only corruption cases as that would expedite and fast-track the prosecution of such cases and in turn lead to more convictions.
