Miscible Displacement
Fluid Phase Behavior: Pressure-Composition Diagram
Pressure-composition diagram is another way to present the phase behavior information. Usually the composition is expressed as a mole fraction of the more volatile component (Figure 5‑5).
Figure 5-5: Typical P-X Diagram for the Methane-normal Butane System
For a binary system at temperature higher than the critical temperature of volatile component, two phases do not form over all compositions of the more volatile component. For the system that shown in Figure 5‑5 at 90°F two phases are not formed above the methane composition of about 90%. The composition of methane above which only one phase exists decease with increasing temperature. The p-x diagram also shows the cricondenbar pressure for each temperature. For each temperature cricondenbar is the maximum pressure that two phases can exist. Above this pressure all methane- ethane mixtures will be a single phase, in other words complete miscibility exist. Figure 5‑6 presents a p-x diagram for a three components system consisting of methane, n-butane and decane at a fixed temperature of 160°F
[1]. The graph is pressure versus mol% of methane adding to the reservoir mixture containing methane, butane, and decane. A single phase exists above the phase-boundary line, while two phases exist below this line. Miscibility condition of added methane (C1) and reservoir fluid could be find from the graph. For example, if incremental amounts of C1 were added to the reservoir fluid at a constant pressure of 2000 psia and temperature of 160°F, the mixture of fluid would be single phase as long as the concentration of added C1 was less than about 25 mol%. Further C1 addition would cause a gas phase separates from the liquid phase. However miscibility would be reached if the concentration of added C1 exceeds about 97%. At low-gas concentration end, gas goes into solution in the liquid, while at the high-gas concentration end, the liquid is vaporized into the gas. If the pressure on the system were raised to a value equal or higher than cricondenbar pressure, then addition of C1 to the reservoir fluid would not cause two phases to form and the gas C1 and reservoir fluid would be single phase over all possible concentration of added C1.
Figure 5-6: Pressure-Composition Diagram for Mixture of C1 with a Liquid Mixture of C1-nC4-C10
Adding some heavier hydrocarbons, such as C4, to the injected gas causes shifting down the cricondenbar. So miscibility condition reaches at lower pressure.

Q: OneLogin POST binding support for AuthnRequest I hope you are doing well,
I wanna ask about is there a way to make my authnrequest to support POST Binding or its impossible.
thank you

A: You don't provide many details but yes onelogin seems to support urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:bindings:HTTP-POST for SingleSignOnService
The question is whether your SAML2 libary supports it for you Service Provider.

Q: Removable volume dismount: drive letter remains reserved On a Windows 2008 Server regular users are allowed to mount a TrueCrypt volume running a batch as administrator. The volume is dismounted automatically on certain conditions by another batch file ran by Task Scheduler.
The volume gets inaccessible every time, but about one in four cases the drive letter remains there so next time the mount script fails.
The weird thing is that it seems random which users see this phantom drive. Sometimes everyone, sometimes only one and not even the administrator (but even then, TC ran as Admin sees it and says 'volume already mounted').
The drive letter cannot be accessed (usual 'volume may be moved' error message). Disk Manager and Mountvol does not see the drive. The only way I was able to get rid of it was rebooting the server.
Start command used by other users (Yes, I know /savecred is unsafe, but it's (hopefully) irrelevant for the problem):
C:\Windows\System32\runas.exe /savecred /user:Administrator
   "cmd /c c:\users\Administrator\ws\startserver.bat"

startserver.bat:
"c:\Program Files\TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe" /v c:\Users\Administrator\ws\ws.dat /lz /q /m rm

Dismount batch ran as Administrator by Task Scheduler (before that, a MySQL and a Tomcat server running from the TC drive is stopped and there is a 30 seconds pause, there is no indication that any of these would fail to stop):
"c:\Program Files\TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe" /f /dz /w /q /s

Any tips on how to investigate this?

A: You may try to use diskpart to free the drive letter.
Add this line to your dismount script after truecrypt's dismount:
(echo select vol X & echo remove) | diskpart > nul

Where X is your volume letter.


All you need is Love! Imagine: no more rich and poor, no more Alzheimer, no more religion, too! No more Republicans! No more Republicans! No more Republicans!
What? No worship of the Virgin Hillary?
thats pretty sick man. sort of blasphemous.
Don't forget all the paralyzed people will get up and walk the day Kerry is elected.
Prayer isn't getting the job done. Bring on the stem cells.
And all Americans, and their intrests, will be totally secure.
Bring on the stem cells.
Why should the research be paid for by the government? Pharmaceutical companies have enough money to do the research themselves.

Q: Tracking C++ lib public API changes I'm currently working on large C++ Qt based project which is a about to go under a major re-factor of its public API and it would be nice to have a tool that can generate a report on which methods have been added or removed from build to build.
I know there is a tool for Java to do this and I think there might be one for .NET but I couldn't, after a bit of searching, find anything for C++.
Does one exist.  Cross platform would be nice, or if only in Linux that would be fine too.

A: Check the bottom of the commercial list for apidiff, I think it'll be the closest match.
The suggestion of using 'nm' isn't a bad one, you can run
nm <binary_or_lib> | c++filt

And it'll generate a decent snapshot, that will need a fair amount of post-processing.
There's lots of ways to roll your own on this one:

*

*Doxygen can generate an XML file that has all the class / member / method information that you could then mine for building class trees. It would then be a matter of comparing trees. Some useful post-processing scripts / utilities can be found @ http://www.doxygen.nl/helpers.html

*If you're compiling with gcc, egypt is a novel approach that uses the intermediate RTL to produce call-dependency graphs - it seems like it wouldn't be that difficult to use a similar method to generate basic API information.

*GCC-XMLwill generate an XML representations of compiled code, a bit more low level than Doxygen as it provides a mechanism for writing wrapper code.

*cppHeaderParser, a python module will generate nice python object representations of headers giving an easy way to generate the API maps.

*ctags generates a tag database which could probably be processed. It has problems with C++ namespaces though.
Some commercial solutions

*

*scitool's Understand does a great job of mapping software out and has a perl API for querying its database.

*MagicDraw is kind of a heavy-weight tool centered around UML, but it can reverse-engineer an existing C++ code-base and generate meta-information.

*apidiff seems to be a pretty affordable tool and given the criteria (cross-platform, C++) is likely the closest match.

A: Instead of allowing all the visible symbols to export from your library automatically, you can use an explicit list of exported symbols. For larger libraries this is even recommended.
In Windows you use a .DEF file to export symbols from a DLL.
In Unix-likes you use a linker script to do it.

A: If you use Doxygen or some similar tool to document your API then you can diff the table-of-contents.

*

*This is something you should be doing anyway.

*

*(You can also tell Doxygen to find undocumented functions.)

*You can apply it easily to ancient checkins without changing anything.

*The Doxygen and its ilk know enough about the language to be sensitive to private and public.

*This solution can be applied to many languages and is not dependent on a particular IDE.

*No third-party software is required (given that you already have a documentation generator).

A: Add an automatic build step that uses nm on Unix-likes and whichever Windows tool (dumpbin?) to dump a list of exported functions. Use some scripting language to strip off unimportant bits that change from build to build, like addresses.
After each build commit this file to version control. Then you can see the differences from each build.
Because it is a C++ application, the names will also catch the parameter type changes.

A: Try abi-compliance-checker. This tool shows added/removed symbols in your API, changes in parameters/data types and other changes from the binary compatibility point of view. It's cross-platform. The best performance is on Linux, but it's able to run on Windows and Mac too.
Usage:
abi-compliance-checker -lib NAME -old OLD.abidump -new NEW.abidump

*.abidump files are ABI dumps generated by the abi-dumper tool.
This compatibility table for Qt library is created using this tool:

Feel free to ask any usage questions in the comments below.

A: If you use git you should create a new branch and use a shell script to compare all header files that define the API bwetween the branches. If you have not yet done so, you should use the impl pattern for your API header files to make the library binary compatible/more stable for future versions. See the entry for d_pointer in the Qt developer wiki or the part about D-Pointers in the KDE techbase.

A: In addition to the option of using Doxygen to roll your own analysis tool I would also suggest looking into using the BSC Toolkit. This allows you to access the code/class browser information generated by MS compilers and is available for free. The toolkit provides programmatic access to all definitions, usage references, source and line numbers, parameters, access modifiers, etc. Names are provided in their mangled form and facilities are included for translating them to human readable format if necessary.
Here is some very basic output from a project I am working on:

You can't tell me that at this time of year you wouldn't love to light some candles, make yourself your own pumpkin spice latte and snuggle up on the couch with a big warm blanket; to me that's basically what autumn is all about.
If you're looking for some perfect comforting autumn scents you should check out The Autumn Collection from Colonial Candle.
Cassis & Cypress, Pumpkin Coconut Torte (yummy), Savannah Moss, Mandarin Nutmeg, Maple Butterscotch (yummy, yummy, yummy!) and Autumn Spice Tea.
They have lots of sizes, styles and scents to choose from so you're bound to find something you love; I personally want them all!

Cybersecurity and the practice of law
Despite not being designated as one of the nation's critical infrastructure sectors, law firms are a veritable treasure trove of high-value and highly sensitive data. Aside from the detailed personal information of your own partners and employees—including financial data, HIPAA data, and other private information residing on your human resources platform and elsewhere throughout your organization's digital footprint—law firms can be incredibly lucrative cybercrime targets:
Corporate firms are regularly involved in the closing of deals, whether it's the purchase/sale of a business, the acquisition of a property, or the transfer of money between two parties;
Intellectual property attorneys are periodically preparing and filing patents on behalf of high-profile clients that, if stolen, could prove financially devastating; and
Litigation firms are periodically handling the disbursement of multi-million-dollar settlements to individual clients as well as class action claimants.
There's not only a massive financial risk to your firm in allowing a security breach that compromises a client's privacy, financial information, and/or vital intellectual property, but there's an equally huge (if not larger) reputational risk that would inevitably result from that type of publicized data breach.
"If you were a hacker, would you try to attack a patent creator (who likely has their digital security tightly buttoned up), or would you look for an easier way to grab the IP by attacking their attorney? We've seen firms, unbeknownst to them, have criminals hack into their email servers. The fraudsters often lie in wait for weeks or even months, monitoring activity and waiting for the right opportunity."
– John Wirtz, Principal, Tangent Zero
Sometimes hackers are seeking valuable information that can be sold. More often, however, they're looking for a chance to divert funds the firm is transferring; by issuing an email request appearing to come from the client to redirect the funds to a different account.
These data security issues certainly aren't specific to the legal profession or any one industry. They're simply a byproduct of an ever-increasing reliance on digital living. And threat actors are highly skilled at what they do. What's most worrisome, however, is the fact that law firms tend to underestimate just what a high-value target they actually are. There's so much sensitive data flowing through your staff and attorneys' hands and sitting on your servers; you may not even realize its true value.
Potentially on the Hook
Recently, a lawsuit was filed against an AMLAW 100 firm claiming breach of fiduciary duty relating to the firm's role in a botched wire transfer where significant funds were sent to a fraudulent client account in Hong Kong based on email instructions which the firm failed to voice verify with the client.
Pandemic-related acceleration
Over the past decade, more and more firms have struggled with the challenge of how to manage safety and security of their infrastructure with a growing number of professionals traveling with laptops and mobile devices and needing to access and transfer critical data while on the go. How do you protect that information in transit, and how do you design an infrastructure that provides a high degree of security without overly burdening your attorneys?
With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, however, everything accelerated. For many firms, the need to migrate to a fully remote operation occurred in a matter of days. How could anyone ensure they had everything lined up to manage that type of transition? And even once the transition was made, how do you provide ongoing monitoring and oversight? What sort of strong internal checks and balances on authorization levels need to be established?
2021 technology budget considerations
As you think about your technology budget for the year ahead, it's important to do so with a clear view of the steps required to shore up your firm's data lifecycle management security.
1. Know – most of us vastly underestimate the amount of sensitive data we actually possess. Start by conducting a thorough review/evaluation of the type and nature of data that's stored in every nook and cranny of your firm's technology infrastructure.
2. Classify – once you have a clearer understanding of all the sensitive information you own (both client and employee data), create a system to classify it according to security level. Which users should have access to it, and at what point in time should the data be destroyed?
3. Protect – have a plan for how you will secure access. Who has access and by what means? How will data be backed up/replicated for continuity of access?
4. Archive – once access to data is no longer regularly required, create a system to archive that information with reduced access that adheres to any Legal Hold duration stipulations that may be mandated.
5. Purge – your goal should be to retain items ONLY as long as needed. The challenge here lies in figuring out how long to keep the data when typically, firm users maintain sensitive data in a single giant "storage pool" that never gets classified or cleaned up.
Corporate law firms with intellectual property, labor and employment, hospital and healthcare, and real estate practice groups (as well as contingency litigation firms) need to be especially vigilant when it comes to potential cybercrime vulnerabilities. Adding further complexity to all of these issues are expanding international "Right to be Forgotten" laws, which afford individuals the right to demand that their personal data be expunged upon request. While this seems relatively straightforward, it quickly becomes an immensely difficult task since data is frequently replicated and can therefore live on different servers residing in different locations. Ultimately, however, the jurisdiction of client data according to the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is determined by the physical location of the end user/owner. It's a challenge that will require a whole new approach to managing and tracking the data you store.
While Truist's Legal Specialty Group professionals aren't information security experts, the fact that we have such extensive and diverse legal relationships means that we're closely attuned to trends and developments that extend beyond the scope of financial services. We speak at length and work closely with a number of information security leaders who cater to the legal profession.

Edition of 1802. See also Opium on Wikipedia, and disclaimer.
OPIUM, an inspissated gummy-resinous juice, which is obtained from the White Poppy (Papaver album v. somniferum, L.) a plant cultivated in Persia and Arabia, where it attains the height of 20 or 30 feet. When the heads are nearly ripe, they are wounded on one side by an instrument furnished with five edges, which make an equal number of incisions; whence the opium flows by the action of the sun's heat, and is collected on the following day, by a person who wounds the opposite side of the head; from which the juice exudes, and is received in a similar manner. As soon as it is collected, the opium is moistened with a little water or honey, and is kneaded with the hand, till it acquires the consistence of pitch; after which it is formed into cakes or rolls for sale.
The best opium is imported from the province of Bahar, in the East Indies, though it appears from experiments, that this drug may be advantageously prepared in England; and the Patriotic Society for the Encouragement of Arts, &c. having offered liberal premiums to obtain so desirable an object, we propose to give a concise account of the methods adopted by the successful candidates, under the article Poppy.
Opium is very ponderous; of a close and compact texture; rather moist; and of a deep brown colour. It emits a faint smell, and has a very bitter acrid taste: the best sort is of a moderate firmness, possessing a very powerful odour, and a bitter, disagreeable flavour. This narcotic drug is at present greatly esteemed; and, whether used in the extract made into pills, or in the liquid form of Laudanum, it is one of the most valuable medicines. Being a very powerful antidote, as well as a remedy for procuring sleep and mitigating pain, it is but too often abused. If conjoined in certain proportions with vegetable acids, it possesses the remarkable property of preventing sleep, and exciting the mental powers. On this account, it has often, though injuriously, been employed by those who are obliged to devote their rights to sedentary or active pursuits.—See also Acids.
Among the various disorders, in which opium has been given, with good effects, we shall first mention diarrhœas, and dysenteries. It has likewise been found serviceable in relieving the tooth-ach; in allaying the pain and preventing the fever arising from wounds, fractures, or similar accidents; and also in the small-pox, both where the patient is troubled with convulsions, before the appearance of the eruption, and on the fifth or subsequent days. But as it is, on the whole, a precarious remedy, its proper use can be determined only by the expert practitioner.
Opium is the most certain antispasmodic hitherto discovered; and, when conjoined with laxatives, is eminently useful in colics; as, by relieving the spasm, it frequently prevents intlammations of the bowels.—Lastly, it is of the greatest service in the different species of tetanus, and Locked Jaw; and affords relief in the various spasmodic affections attending indigestion, hypochondriasis, the bite of a mad dog, &c.; it facilitates the passage of calculi, or stones, through the ureters: and has been found useful in some species of epilepsy.
But, though opium be thus valuable, it should not be taken in too large doses, or without medical advice; as it is not unfrequently productive of the most fatal consequences. If, however, any quantity be swallowed, or suspected to have been swallowed, either accidentally, or with a design to terminate existence, its effects will become evident by vomiting, delirium, vertigo, and an irresistible propensity to sleep. In such case, friction with salt has been found serviceable, in restoring the patient to a slight degree of animation; immediately after, it will be necessary to exhibit 12 grains of vitriolated zinc, if he be an adult. This medicine should be succeeded by water-gruel, or similar mucilaginous drink, or butter-milk, sour whey, and particularly vinegar, or strong coffee, which last appears to be the most effectual antidote.—The cold bath, and the application of blisters to the head, have likewise produced beneficial effects in recovering persons poisoned with this drug.
Opium pays, on importation, the sum of 1s. 7 1/2d. per lb. if brought from the place of its growth; but, if not, it is subject to the duty of 4s. 11 1/2d. per lb. When imported by the East-India Company, it pays, on warehousing, the sum of 2l. per cent. according to its value, and is liable to the farther payment of 1s. 7 1/2d. on being taken out for home-consumption.—It has been proved, from the Custom-house lists, and other sources of information, that a larger quantity of opium is annually used in Great-Britain, than in all other States of Europe, collectively.

Because of social distancing needs,
Vivian now does online mediations.
ivian Berger is the Nash Professor of Law Emerita at Columbia University School of Law. A seasoned ADR (alternative dispute resolution) practitioner, she has conducted hundreds of mediations since the mid-1990s and been designated an Advanced Practitioner in employment mediation – her specialty – by the Association for Conflict Resolution. She has also done arbitrations and independent workplace investigations and served as a special master in federal court.
Vivian brings substantial and diverse professional experience to her current work. Her many years of public speaking, in forums ranging from the classroom to radio and television, have honed her communication skills. Her numerous publications in newspapers, magazines and academic journals have made her an effective writer as well.
With regard to workplace-related mediation, Vivian's background has prepared her to relate to the concerns of both employers and employees. For example, as Vice Dean of her law school for four and a half years, she oversaw the Human Resources area; she also grew up in a family business. As one who began her career at the New York State Division of Human Rights and who served for twenty years as a general counsel for the ACLU, she is, in addition, sensitive to the interests of workers. Moreover, her years as a prosecutor and defense attorney have given her experience that, together with her substantive knowledge of employment law, enhances her ability to handle employment investigations.
Perhaps most important, Vivian possesses the personal qualities required of a good mediator. She listens to, and empathizes with, her clients, and is wholly impartial. She prepares for mediation thoroughly and works patiently, as long as necessary, to help the parties arrive at successful resolutions. A lawyer for over forty-five years and a law professor emerita, she respects, and is respected by, the attorneys with whom she works. Moreover, while basically facilitative in her approach, in the privacy of caucus she does not hesitate to "reality-test" the parties — believing their autonomy is maximized by careful consideration of their options.
Finally, Vivian loves her work, and finds it a continual source of intellectual excitement, practical stimulation, and human interest.
Go to Vivian Berger's biography, or read her articles on mediation and other topics.

Home Education British Jewish School Cited for Segregation of Students by Sex
British Jewish School Cited for Segregation of Students by Sex
King David School near Manchester
(JTA) — The British government declared a top-performing Jewish school to be "inadequate" because it teaches girls and boys separately.
King David High School in the Manchester area was downgraded this year by Ofsted, the British government's regulatory authority for education, the Manchester Evening News reported last week.
It had been rated by Ofsted as "outstanding" in keeping with its being one of the top-rated and best-performing high schools in the country but was found to be practicing "unlawful segregation" of pupils "on the grounds of faith and belief and sex."
The school of 800 pupils may be shut down if it continues to be found inadequate in subsequent inspections.
In a letter sent to parents, the school's governors said its lawyers dispute the findings and believe Ofsted "is wrong on the law." A legal challenge to the inspection results could now follow, the Evening News reported.
The school has four separate streams. Three are co-educational. One, Yavneh, is separated by gender. Enrollment in the Yavneh Girls and Yavneh Boys programs is voluntary.
Ofsted said in its report: "This is unlawful segregation on the grounds of faith and belief, and sex. Pupils affected by this segregation suffer detriment."
King David High School is a voluntary aided school, which receives funds from the state and also has a religious foundation or trust that contributes to building costs and has a substantial influence in the running of the school.

, an ongoing series exploring how various authors sold their first books.
Marie Brennan's fifth book, A Star Shall Fall, came out earlier this week. She's scheduled to be a Guest of Honor at the Sirens Conference next month. Also, she recently invented the iPlatypus. (2 of these 3 facts are true.)
She turned 30 on Wednesday. Once you finish reading about her six-year journey from writing Doppelganger to seeing it on the bookstore shelves, go wish her a happy birthday.
The first book I sold was the second book I wrote. It was pure chance that I didn't write it first; the ideas for both came to me around the same time, in my senior year of high school. I could tell, even then, that both were different from the ideas I'd had before; they were richer, more substantial — worth finishing. Yeah, "finish what you started" wasn't a skill I was terribly good at in those days; I had lots of fragments of novels lying around, but nothing that amounted to more than scattered scenes. Not until these two ideas happened along.
Doppelganger [B&N | Mysterious Galaxy | Amazon] (later republished as Warrior) was mostly written in the summer of 2000, parts of it while on an archaeological dig in southern Wales. (I recall writing a few scenes with my laptop balanced on an air mattress while the wind tried to blow my tent down around me.) Finished in August, cleaned it up, started shopping it around.
For those who have never tried it: this is a slow process. I queried at least fifteen agents, maybe more, but the really slow part was publishers; there were still some back then who would consider unagented manuscripts, but I could only submit to them one at a time. My closest call was with Roc; the editor read my query and asked for a partial, read the partial and asked for the full manuscript, read the full manuscript . . . and passed. Altogether, that took about nine months. (I wrote a whole other novel in that time, one I hope to dust off and sell someday.) But I wasn't as aggressive about querying agents as I should have been, and after a few years I'd run out of publishers who would look at my book without one.
In the interim, I'd done something smart: I'd written other books. Three, in fact, not counting the one before Doppelganger. So I kept querying and submitting with new material. But in autumn of 2004, after letting this book gather dust for a year and a half while I debated what to do with it, I decided to try a long shot. I'd heard that sometimes you could send a query letter — no sample, just a letter — to publishers that didn't take unsolicited submissions; if an editor followed up, then you could sneak in the back door, so to speak. I mailed off three, to Bantam Spectra, Del Rey, and Warner Aspect. Spectra never replied; Del Rey wrote back to say they meant it about not taking unsolicited submissions; Warner Aspect asked for the manuscript.
Precisely four weeks later, I got a phone call from the editor. She said she'd shown the book to her boss, and her boss had reminded her that they didn't buy unagented books. So I should go get myself an agent.
With an offer pending, it's a lot easier to get attention from agents. I contacted two immediately, and hit it off with one, Rachel Vater; I'm still with her today. December 8th, 2004, she called to say she'd hammered out the details of the offer from Warner, and I gave her the go-ahead to accept it. April 2006, it was on the shelves, and it's been going strong ever since: two editions, enough printings that I've stopped counting, three foreign language sales, and it earned out its advance within the first few months. I think of it as the Little Book That Could.

7 Minutes of Terror, November 26th, 2018! [Starstuff, Contemplating]
Posted on November 25, 2018 by HumanisticPaganism
Here it comes! Seven minutes of terror, with survival hanging in the balance! It's real, and you can live it yourself!
Every now and then, I am reminded of how incredible it is to live now. So many things would not just be amazing to nearly all of our Ancestors, but often would be literally indescribable. November 26, 2018, is yet another one of those times, and you can live this historic event moment by moment, via online simulcast. How far are we still from Mars? You can see here, where we have a countdown until the landing, and the current distance from the red planet! ***Update. Successful landing! Here is the first picture InSight sent back. **
Landing on Mars is HARD.
On November 26th, 2018, just after 2:00 pm EST (to 3:30 pm EST), NASA will attempt to land the InSight lander onto Mars. This is one of just a handful of attempts that have been made to successfully land spacecraft on Mars. This extremely difficult task has very often been met with destruction, as the efforts of hundreds of the best minds on Earth end up failing to land the spacecraft successfully. Of the 17 attempts to land on Mars, only 6 have been successful, for a ~65% failure rate. Most of these have burned up in the Martian atmosphere, while the fate of many of them is still a mystery, even after many years. Failures have come from attempts by the United States, by the European Space Agency, and by the Soviet Union.
You Can Experience this Historic Moment
Not only do we get to live when we are actually attempting land on another world, but through technology, we can experience it moment by moment, by simulcast! The few meager pennies* we each have pooled has made this possible. The simulcast can be accessed on NASA TV, NASA.gov/live, YouTube.com/NASAJPL/live and Ustream.tv/NASAJPL. Check it out!
What Needs to Happen for Success
We get to experience this live, and we can do so while understanding what each part of the landing requires. Part of the reason it is so hard to land on Mars is that Mars has a thin atmosphere – both too thick to ignore, yet too thin to provide very strong use of parachutes at the end of the landing stage. The many different methods – from bouncing balloons to counter-blast rockets – which have been tried are too extensive to describe in detail here, but I encourage anyone interested to look into the many methods tried. A really cool video + description of the full landing sequence planned for this attempt is described here. The main phases of this daring landing are Entry, Descent, and Landing.
Since it's launch back at Beltaine, the spacecraft has been together as one unit. As it approaches Mars at speeds over 10,000 miles an hour, the unit containing the solar panels (top) will separate from the entry capsule (bottom), with the entry capsule in free fall towards Mars. The only thing slowing down our spacecraft at this point will be friction with the thin Martian atmosphere. The heat shield will glow with heat of entry, reaching temperatures around 2,700 F.
If the heatshield survives, our spacecraft will hopefully have slowed to around 4,000 miles per hour. It will be approaching terminal velocity, and so will need additional means to slow it's descent further. When going around 1,000 miles per hour, the parachute will deploy, which will slow it further. During this deceleration, the heat shield is jettisoned, exposing the InSight lander, with it's shock absorbing legs facing down.
At 1 km (over a half mile) above the Martian surface, the lander literally drops off the capsule! Yes, the plan is to simply drop it off from the parachute, so it will free-fall towards the surface! Help me out here, but to me, this seems extremely risky. I have to remind myself of how much work has gone into this decision, and that those doing so understand what's involved here much better than I. I've dropped things from far above the ground, and they tumble and turn.
Tumbling and turning is not the plan here, however. After some free-fall, the lander will fire rockets to slow and control it's fall, setting it gently onto the rocky surface of an alien planet. All of the steps above seem hard enough, but the last seconds before landing seem hard to me too. How can we know when to turn off the rockets? A couple seconds too soon, and the landers drops onto the surface, smashing to bits (remember that at about 1/1000th of Earth atmosphere, things fall nearly as fast as in a vacuum – imagine a feather smashing to the ground as fast as a dropped rock). But a couple of seconds too late, and the rockets blast against the rock, potentially flipping the lander over (it has no rockets on the top surface). Timing it perfectly, wow!
If all that goes well, and no instruments are damaged, and they all work as planned, millions of miles from anyone who can service them (imagine the last time you set up any complicated system……), then InSight will give us a lot of information about the geology of Mars. InSight stands for Interior Exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport. It will deploy a robotic arm, drill into Mars, measure heat flow, winds, seismic activity (Marsquakes!), and more, while taking pictures and relaying these scientific data back to us on Earth.
Did you know of this before this month? Have you been informed of this, as it developed since being planned in 2012? Was this a lead story in our news for years? No. I know that we have had important stuff (democracy in America is in peril, after all) – but would even a few minutes every few months amid all the football, Kardashians, and Justin Bieber been too hard to cover? I don't put all or even most of the blame on the media. After all, this is capitalism – the media is driven by ratings, and hence they supply what they estimate people want. I blame mostly our culture. A culture that cares more about suppressing blacks who kneel during the national anthem or are unhappy that Christmas isn't forced on everyone more than it already is than about the tremendous achievements we are accomplishing.
Can you imagine describing this one of your Ancestors from 5,000 years ago? Even convincing her or him that the Earth is not flat, and that Mars is truly another whole world (or even that most people really don't have to worry where the next meal is coming from, or that some people have automatically heating houses) would be hard enough, even before the science of atmospheric frictional heating or what the heck a "seismometer" is? But no, with all that astounding wonder, even an attempt at a Mars landing gets barely a whisper in our culture, and most people won't know it happened, if they would even care. Still, I don't see this as something to be discouraged about, but rather a reminder of how vital, how massively important, our work together in building a reality based culture of wonder and awe, is.
Thank you for doing your part – and I hope we all see a successful landing! I don't have a ritual written out, but I have performed a short ritual which brought this up and called to both our Ancestors and future generations. Even though my little ritual won't make a successful landing any more likely, it does great things for me. Blessed be.
* With planning and work from 2012 to 2018, this cost each of us only 44 cents per year. By comparison, the Iraq War cost 2,900 times as much ($2,400 billion vs. $0.83 billion). That's right, instead of invading Iraq, we could have sent literally thousands of these landers across the solar system and still had money left over.

It's hard for lay readers to ascertain the difference between incremental research and genuine breakthroughs that will change the practice of medicine. The University of Melbourne/AAP
Why the media need to tread carefully when reporting research findings
January 30, 2017 7.34pm EST
Post-doctoral Fellow; Reproductive Epigenetics, University of Adelaide
Dr Hannah Brown receives funding from the NHMRC for fundamental discovery into programming of adult disease in the peri-conception period. The views expressed here are her own.
Last week, the Australian of the Year was awarded to biomedical scientist and stem cell researcher Alan Mackay-Sim. To have a scientist recognised for such a prestigious award was extraordinary, especially during such a challenging time for research in Australia and globally.
Alas, there was barely time for the firework smoke to clear and Australia Day hangovers to subside before criticisms emerged and accusations were made that Professor Mackay-Sim had played no role in the scientific miracle that saw a paralysed man walk again.
While the types of cells used were similar (stem cells taken from the nose), the team responsible for the "miracle" say Mackay-Sim's work did not inform their own. Mackay-Sim has reportedly vowed to make this clear over the course of his duties as Australian of the Year.
Is basic research front-page news?
While it's unlikely we will ever know how his role was so misconstrued, the exaggeration and inflation of fundamental results is a common story. Any scientist with media experience is likely to have a horror story to share, of mistruths and misconceptions of the impact of their research being aired publicly as breaking news.
Almost weekly we hear of another "ground-breaking cancer treatment breakthrough", but how many make it to the clinic, and how many will actually help patients? The honest answer is: very few. Even if treatments survive the scientific rigour of laboratory trials, the path to clinical trials is long and expensive, with most lost along the way.
How often do scientists get to speak freely about their (often life-long) contribution, without expectation of an outcome, without making a pill or device? How often do they get to say: "I contributed knowledge to a pathway that may help us to treat a wide range of diseases, but it's still many years away"? Rarely, if ever.
After all, finding the cause is the first step towards finding the cure. Unfortunately, describing how something happens or works is far less sexy and attracts far less attention than "curing cancer", "reversing infertility" or "helping a paralysed man walk again".
As scientists, we can most often predict the pressing questions from the media: "When will we see the first trials?" or "How soon do you think this will be helping patients?". But the answers aren't simple, or worthy of front-page news. It's a long road, perhaps 20 years, from many laboratory discoveries to a product.
Inflation of the facts helps no one
As I heard the story, I had immediate empathy and compassion for Mackay-Sim. After all, the Australian of the Year isn't a science award, it's an award that recognises contribution. And I'm certain there's absolutely no question among scientists that Mackay-Sim is worthy of a contribution award.
But the empathy was more personal. I, too, know the experience of a media frenzy following a "breakthrough" discovery, which left patients (perhaps) more hopeful than they should be, and me scrambling for answers. We had made a great discovery, but one that required far more research before it would ever be ready for patients.
Over-inflation of research findings can give false hope to desperate people. The Advertiser/Screenshot
To the media, we had cured infertility, reversed ageing and were changing the face of fertility treatment in Australia. I received thousands of emails from desperate couples hoping to benefit from my research findings: from women who had received radiation as teenagers, saving them from cancer, but rendering them infertile as adults; from parents, whose children were unable to conceive; from business execs who had "waited too long".
I was temporarily traumatised, but realised my role as a scientist meant working hard both towards fundamental discovery and towards translating and communicating those discoveries to the media and the public.
What causes this inflation?
The pressure to perform as an Australian scientist is greater than ever, with research funds scarce and jobs on the line. The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) funds scientists for three to five years at a time, which is considerably shorter than the time taken to turn a fundamental discovery into a treatment or cure.
As scientists, we are encouraged to think big, to elaborate on the "clinical relevance" and "translation capacity" of our research in every application, even though this may be many years away.
When combined with a front-page story, research that "looks promising in animal models" can easily become "is ready for clinical trial". While to the average person that may seem like a small jump, it may be a decade in reality. Add an emotive interview or photo, a sick child or young couple plagued by infertility who are "hopeful this breakthrough will help" them, and you have a recipe for exaggeration.
Some important lessons
The most important lesson here for scientists is learning how to engage effectively with the media. Now, more than ever, in a world filled with "fake news", it's up to researchers to work hard to have accurate messages publicised. Be positive about the future, but also honest about what this discovery means and how likely it is the research will translate into outcomes.
And the media need to provide a place for open and honest dialogue, for conversation and exchange. Ask about the next steps. Is more laboratory testing required? How long has it taken to get to this point? Do we know if it's safe? What would it take to make this a treatment or cure?
And if the research was performed in animals, then say so. And remember, "world first" is exactly that, the first time it has occurred, meaning the end goal may be out of reach, for now.
And readers need to ask questions, be sceptical and engaged. Be involved, check out citizen science, and contribute to Australia's vibrant science community.

Blank Business Card Template Word – My plan isn't the secret Coca-Cola formula. A organisation program may need both qualitative and measurable information analyses based on the location of passion. In place of working with a strategy from square one, gathering instructions and support from a number of websites or sources, utilizing a business strategy design template encompasses you direct and also practical recommendations about just how to produce a total local business plan all in 1 plan.
The primary thing you need to take into consideration when writing your company program is just how you provide it to possible investors. The business program should reflect the individuality of your management team as well as the type of company you require to develop. Great deals of individuals do not recognize where to start when it relates to preparing a cleansing service program.
You ought to figure out how to make up a company strategy regardless. A business program can be valuable to you whether you are just starting or currently have a firm, or whether you're a sole owner, an LLC member, or any other type of service director. I do not have any type of service strategy or advertising plan you require a individual to hold your hand as well as offer you the info you have to arrive.
To have something to offer you need to cross out your small business program. The firm program can not convince funders to offer cash on its own, but it can promptly eliminate the supplier's possibility of becoming outside financing it finds to be doing not have. It's much less tough to define an expansion program and also existing financial data for a present company than it is mosting likely to be to explain just how you are mosting likely to safeguard a new organisation ready to go.
If you should be specific to develop a organisation strategy which can assist you to be successful and also not to allow you down, you have to specify and also note down all your company targets and the steps regarding just how to acquire all of it. It is very important to keep in mind that your local business program is not as well as shouldn't be written in stone. However, it needs to function as a guide for implementing your method and reaching your objectives. Your small business plan doesn't require to be a elegant 100-page file. A sound business strategy is important to receive a banks or SBA loan or just a government grant.

Q: iOS game lagging after loading view frequently I am developping a relatively simple frame based iphone game, and it runs quite smoothly. However, when I switch views and then back again a couple of times everything starts to lagg severely.
Maybe someone recognizes this as a simple programming problem. (e.g. not setting iVars to nil, not switching views correctly, loading too much variables at the same time, etc.)
NOTE: this happens only after having switched views over 10 times.

Indian mobile phone companies are competing with each other to increase their market share by launching high-end phones. Long- forgotten are the days when companies tried to survive in the market by launching phones below INR 3,000. Now they are all trying to launch models that can compete with smartphones from Samsung, Nokia and Sony.
Lava, headquartered at Noida near New Delhi, is a fast growing mobile phone company. The company that manufactures budget smartphones by the name of Iris had now begun releasing expensive phones in 'Xolo' series. Lava now sells around 70,000 handsets every month. Last week the company launched the latest model from the Xolo Q series. The phone named Xolo Q1100 costs INR 14,990. Though details about the phone is available on the company's official website, when it will be launched in the market is yet to be revealed.
The phone has a 5-inch HD display with 720 X 1280 pixel resolution. It is home to the One Glass Solution display that was first introduced by the Chinese company Gionee. This is the latest finding of the famous screen – display manufacturing company Corning. Normally touchscreen phones have two glass layers. While one works as a touch sensor, the other acts as the protective layer of the sensor. However in the OGS screen there is just one glass layer. The OGS screen can decrease the weight of the handset and increase display efficiency.
The phone works on the Android 4.3 Jellybean version. The hardware specifications of Q 1100 include 1.4 Ghz Quadcore Qualcomm snapdragon processor, 1 GB RAM, Adreno 305 GPU and 8 GB inbuilt memory along with an SD card with up to 32 GB. The phone houses an 8-megapixel camera with a BSI sensor and LED flash. The front camera is 2 megapixels. Connectivity options include 3G, GPRS, GPS and WiFi. The phone has a 2000 mAh battery that allows 24 hours talk time and 600 hours of standby time.

The official start of spring is March 20, but these gardens allow us to admire the beauty of the season now.
It's hard to imagine spring in the South without the iconic evergreen bushes.
Self-taught gardener Linda Vater grows over 800 tulips every spring.
Each spring at Moss Mountain Farm in Roland, Arkansas, the stars come out twice—once at night, like everywhere else, and again in the daytime, when innumerable daffodils illuminate hills and meadows from horizon to horizon.
French hydrangeas are favorite plants that Southerners love to clip and share with friends and family members.
Azaleas, flowering dogwoods, and live oaks laden with Spanish moss create an iconic picture of spring in the South.
Stalwart annuals and perennials such as purple coneflowers, black-eyed Susans, angelonias, Persian shields, SunPatiens, coreopsis, lamb's ears, mandevillas, and Shasta daisies offer nonstop color throughout the hot summer.
For an inviting entrance into a cottage garden, plant a basket with caladiums, angelonias, Madagascar periwinkles, and million bells.
At Burnside Farms in Virginia, you can harvest fresh bouquets right from the field. Visitors are encouraged to pick tulips with the bulbs attached.
At the beginning of spring, we start to see lawns around the South turn from the dingy brown of winter into the fresh, bright greens of the season. This transition is absolutely gorgeous, and we want to help you make the most of your spring gardening. Grumpy Gardener Steve Bender is here to get your lawn in tip-top shape, so you can outshine all of your neighbors. Who doesn't want to win the 'Best Lawn' award from the neighborhood HOA?

Even though there's plenty of room for kids to play, it doesn't look like a soccer field.


Boehm K, Raak C, Vollmar HC, Ostermann T. An overview of 45 published database resources for complementary and alternative medicine. Health Information & Libraries Journal 2010; 27(2):93-105.
Pubmed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed (is a free access portal to the US government's Medline database.
Pubmed/Medline provides good, but by no means complete, coverage of Western journals. As Pumed is a given, by virtue of its free access, the pertinent question for other databases is what extra do they offer?
Zetoc http://zetoc.mimas.ac.uk/ is freely available to UK universities. Primarily a catalogue of article references, it does include many abstracts too. Coverage is not quite as good as Pubmed, and the search facilities are inferior, but it does give direct access to your university's full text interface.
These are focused on, but not restricted to, the titles of a particular publisher or group, and generally more useful for accessing full texts than searching for lists of references. Science Direct (Elsevier) www.sciencedirect.com is the most well known; most institutions provide access to it. It includes about 2,500 journals and aims to cover the core scientific literature.
One way of expanding your initial trawl is to follow up the references listed in the articles that you have already obtained. Citation indexes carry out a similar function but the other way round. All articles listed after searching on a particular topic will state the number of subsequent articles that have cited it: their details can then be displayed. Thus you can work forward from a particular key paper to find others in the field that have cited it. The Science Citation index http://thomsonreuters.com/science-citation-index-expanded/ is freely available only through a subscribing institution.
Many institutions use an e-journal service to give you access to titles across hundreds of different publishers. EBSCO http://www.ebsco.com is a well known example. As with Science Direct, the details of what full text access you have are dictated by the purchasing decisions of your individual institution. That is true also of the Web of Science http://thomsonreuters.com/thomson-reuters-web-of-science/ , a platform that gives you access to several databases for tracking down multi-disciplinary research.
There are countless such directories, covering everything from one particular therapy, such as acupuncture, to the whole of medicine or science. It's easy to browse through to the area you're interested in and many have a search facility. Compared with general internet search engines they will greatly reduce the number of sites you have to sift through, hopefully restricting it to the more pertinent ones (however no one directory can cover every site that may be useful).
China/Asia On Demand (CAOD) is a gateway to research materials from China in particular and Asia in general. It provides a search facility but this has limited capabilities unless you can work in Chinese, and it does not display the abstract. Full text documents can be accessed by pay per-view ($11.95 is the basic fee per article, September 2013) or with a flat fee subscription. A sub-section covers the main TCM titles (123 of them as at April 2013): http://caod.oriprobe.com/packages/TCM.htm. They all have titles in English as well as Chinese but only some also have English keywords and abstracts.


Arsenal's interest in Sampdoria central defender Joachim Andersen has now hit the dead rock after he is reported to have put pen to paper for a fresh contract with the club.
The Italian side are believed to have handed a new and improved contract to the player after hearing of the interest from the North London side so as to help the player concentrate.
However, the Denmark international has officially penned a new deal with Sampdoria that will have him remain at the club until 2022.
It was earlier suggested that Sampdoria will not let go of Andersen easily because of his importance to the team. He has had an impressive season so far which has caught the attention of European clubs.
Arsenal have monitored the player and were in pole position to have his signature to bolster their defence until this development which means the Gunners will have to look other direction if they must do business in the winter transfer window.
Sampdoria hints at being lucky to have signed Andersen from Erdivise club Twente for an undisclosed fee rumoured to be around £2 million but there is no doubt that the value of the player has increased with no club expected to have him for as less as £25 million.

Trucks lead way among top-selling vehicles of 2013
By Mark Macesich on December 3, 2013
The race isn't over yet, but U.S. automakers are nearing the finish line on 2013 sales. So it seems a good time to take a look at the top-selling vehicles of the year – chances are that not a lot will change among the top seven or eight, at least.
As our infographic shows, America kept on trucking in 2013, lifting pickups – the Ford F-Series, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the Ram 1500 – to three of the top five positions, according to data from motorintelligence.com reported online at wsj.com (Wall Street Journal). Sales of the three truck brands also grew at a faster rate than any of the cars on the top-sellers list.
Cars ranking highest on the list are the Toyota Camry at No. 3 and the Honda Accord at No. 4.
Other vehicles on the top 10 list are, in order through October, the Honda Civic (6), Nissan Altima (7), Toyota Corolla (8), Honda CR-V (9) and Ford Escape (10). Besides the trucks, vehicles showing the fasted growth so far this year are the Escape SUV and the Accord, Civic and CR-V crossover.
For more insights on America's affair with pickups, see our infographic "10 Reasons We Love a Truck," published April 25 on "The Open Road" blog at RoadLoans.com.

Porsche introduced its first wagon this model year with the Panamera Sport Turismo and surprised us all by offering it to USA buyers as well. The vehicle is a derivative of the Taycan, which was originally known as the Mission E (earlier post).
Porsche is now focused on bringing the Taycan sedan into production for arrival next year.
Other than that, the Cross Turismo will share the powertrain of the Taycan, with one electric motor per axle to deliver over 440kW of power, Porsche's 800v charging capacity and a 90kWh battery to deliver a range of 500 kilometers (according to the old NEDC measurement method).
The vehicle will be one of the variations of the first all-electric Porsche - the Taycan, which arrives to the market in 2019 and generated 1,200 new jobs.
In the network appeared the spy pictures of the tests of the new Porsche elektrouniversal Taycan.
The Taycan family will consist of the Carrera, Carrera S and Turbo versions. There's no word on exact pricing or specs yet, though Robert Meier, Line Director for the Taycan, recently told Automotive News that he was "expecting a price somewhere between a Cayenne and a Panamera" for that model.


Bulimia bloatedness - will it ever end?
I read that it will take around 2-3 weeks for the bloating to start going away... Does that mean that everytime I relapse I have to start over?
I promise you it will end! Bloating is the temporary discomfort that almost all bulimics need to go through in recovery... It's tough, I know... But, it will end.
How long will bloating last? For some people 2-3 weeks is realistic... For others, it takes longer.
My bloating was extreme for a month before it began to subside. I actually felt like somebody had put a hose pipe down my mouth and turned it on full blast until there was no space in my tummy left to fill!
Slipping up and bingeing/purging will not put you back to square one... Think of it as taking many steps forward - and then the slip is one step back. Jump back on board, learn from it and little is lost.
Slipping will slow down the improvement of your bloating - but one slip every now and again will definitely not put you back to square one.
Keep up your progress - you are in the toughest part of recovery at the moment... Keep on putting one foot in front of the other - you will be so happy you did!
