INSIGHTS Gerald Pao Pushing the limits in science and in life
From studying the novel coronavirus to downloading brains to computers, Staff Scientist Gerald Pao is at the forefront of scientific advancement. For Pao, being a staff scientist gives him the freedom to explore a broad range of risky scientific endeavors that could yield pioneering results.
"A staff scientist can be an incredibly enabling position, where I can pursue a greater variety of topics that are difficult to approach in more traditional positions—and I have a lot of interests!" says Pao.
Path to Salk
Pao grew up in Spain, Germany and the United States. He had a keen interest in science from an early age, and when he was in middle school, he asked his biology teacher to teach him about gene expression and the genetic code. The teacher refused, telling Pao that he was too young, so Pao begged his father to help him find a mentor in molecular biology.
His father obliged, and at the age of 12, Pao began spending time at the Center for Molecular Biology at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, where he learned about gene expression in the model system Drosophila melanogaster, a fly. A few years later, at the urging of Professor Gines Morata, Pao decided to attend the University of California San Diego (UC San Diego) due to the strength of molecular biology programs both there and at the Salk Institute, across the street.
For his undergraduate degree in molecular biology, Pao explored the evolution of tyrosine kinases—enzymes that serve as on/off switches—and the complex nature of protein interactions. In his sophomore year, Pao connected with Salk Professor Tony Hunter, whose seminal discovery of tyrosine phosphorylation (the mechanism behind the on/off switches) led to the development of an entire class of anticancer drugs called tyrosine inhibitors, one of which is the leukemia drug Gleevec.
"Tony has an amazing, encyclopedic breadth of knowledge and excitement for science," says Pao. "He is like the wise man on the mountain that you can consult about any scientific query."
Pao completed his PhD in molecular biology jointly at UC San Diego and Salk, and he now works as a staff scientist in Hunter's lab.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Pao spent many months of every year in Japan, taking skin samples from ocean-dwelling bigfin reef squid for his research. Squid have special proteins, called reflectins, that allow them to camouflage themselves by tuning the amount of light reflected by their skin—manipulating what scientists call the optical density. Pao is trying to hack these reflectins so that scientists can more easily view internal processes, such as the activity of the brain.
Although the pandemic has made his squid project more difficult to pursue, Pao has numerous other scientific endeavors to keep him busy, including his research involving the novel coronavirus.
At Salk, Pao and colleagues have engineered a fake virus that has the exterior of the coronavirus, allowing them to study a mutation in the spike protein; the protein is what enables the virus to pull itself inside the host cell. "We're interested in a mutation in the spike protein that makes the virus possibly more infectious," says Pao. "When we introduced the mutated virus into human cells in the lab, we observed that the cells became infected five times more efficiently than with the nonmutated virus." Although these findings are preliminary and were conducted using a virus that mimics the novel coronavirus, they could help guide vaccine design for specific coronavirus strains.
Pao is also working on creating fluorescent fake viruses that light up, which will allow scientists to determine whether viruses stick to surfaces, such as face masks, or how the viruses move in air-conditioning systems.
In his free time, Pao likes to play volleyball and surf. He also enjoys rock climbing and has been known to sneak up to Yosemite for a weekend of big wall climbing on El Capitan.
Pao paid for college by working as a professional model in Europe. He modeled in commercials for athletic brands and walked the runway for fashion brands, such as Benetton. Pao also speaks German, English, Mandarin, Cantonese and Spanish fluently.
Pao and colleagues are working on a new project that allows neural data from the brain to be downloaded to a computer. The researchers are taking the data from fly and fish brains and converting it into a computer model to create a program that behaves like a real fly or fish.
"Essentially, we are downloading a fly brain onto the computer," explains Pao. "It's not just science fiction. We want to create artificial intelligence that is based on real biology."

4 ways to sustain savings habits from the pandemic
By MARGARETTE BURNETTE of NerdWalletOctober 27, 2021 GMT
Whether out of choice or necessity, many people spent less money in the last year and a half on things like entertainment, clothes and furniture. For some, that meant holding on to more of their income. If you were able to save some cash, you've set yourself up to withstand future financial crises, especially if you can continue saving.
Keep growing your bank balance with these four pandemic-driven saving habits.
1. REEVALUATE SPENDING
Consider whether some of the purchases you may have gone months without are necessary going forward. Or rethink how often you want to make them compared to before. For example, if you started to work from home, you might have saved money by making your lunch instead of eating out. If you return to the office, you could continue saving by bringing lunch from home at least a few times a week.
"Since we were all stuck at home, I didn't have many opportunities to go shopping or dine out. So I saved the money," says Vida DeOliver, a jewelry designer and owner of Vidart & Life Boutique, an online store based in Union, New Jersey. "I saved more during the pandemic than I had prior."
DeOliver says these days, she has more in-person spending opportunities, but she's keeping the saving habit. "When I go shopping, I ask myself if a purchase is really necessary, or if I could hold on to the money and save it for something I'd really like later," she says.
2. DELAY BIG-TICKET PURCHASES
Make yourself wait before committing to expensive purchases. At the beginning of the pandemic, out-of-stock inventory and supply challenges meant that some people didn't have a choice about waiting before ordering big-ticket items such as kitchen appliances, furniture and electronics. But learning to wait before spending money can be a smart choice anytime, helping you avoid the kind of impulse that can upend savings plans.
"I always try to delay purchases for a few days to see if I really want something before I buy, but the pandemic shortages really helped me figure out what I needed and what could wait," says Eric Chow, a podcaster and public relations professional in Union City, California . Today, he makes a point of waiting a few days before pressing the "buy" button on items large and small, from electronics to wallets. And then? "If I really want it, I'll know it's worth the wait, and if I don't, I can forget about it and move on," he says.
3. KEEP SAVING EASY WITH AUTOMATION
If you were able to save during the early part of the pandemic, one reason may be that it didn't require much effort. You stayed home. Voila — savings. You can keep saving a low-effort endeavor by using automatic transfers to move money into a savings account at regular intervals.
"Set up an automatic transfer so your savings funnels to a separate account each pay period. This way, your savings is the automatic priority. And it gets you accustomed to relying only on the remaining amount," says Regan Ervin , an investment advisor and founder of Capital E Advisors in Leawood, Kansas.
4. SET CLEAR EMERGENCY SAVINGS GOALS
The pandemic turned emergency savings from a hypothetical nice-to-have into a must-have. If you haven't already, take a moment to seriously evaluate your essential expenses and set a clear emergency fund goal. Make it a habit to review your essential expenses regularly to see if you need to adjust your savings target.
A common guideline is to have three to six months' worth of expenses saved for emergencies. If that seems daunting, start with a smaller goal — say, $500. Chip away at that goal as best you can, even if it's in $5 increments.
YOU CAN GROW YOUR MONEY IN A HIGH-YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNT
You can grow your money with no extra effort if you put it in a high-yield savings account. The annual percentage yield on these accounts can be more than eight times higher than the national average of just 0.06% for savings accounts. At the low national rate, a deposit of $10,000 earns just $6 in interest a fter one year. But in a high-yield savings account that has a 0.50% APY rate, a deposit of $10,000 would grow by more than $50 in the same time period.
If you are fortunate enough to save money, adopting these habits can help you hold on to your funds and save even more, preparing you for whatever the future holds.

Echo Enabled Harmonic Generation: A different perspective!
The Free Electron Laser is a powerful research tool, potentially allowing scientists to 'see' the processes of atoms at their own spatial and temporal scales. Current operational x-ray FEL's, rely on the amplification of noise (aka Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission - 'SASE') which limits the temporal coherence of their output. The Echo-Enabled Harmonic Generation FEL is a method that has been proposed to allow the transfer of the good temporal coherence properties of relatively long wavelength conventional seed lasers into the x-ray regime, where seeds lasers are currently unavailable.
A new method that combines EEHG with mode-coupling from conventional laser techniques, has now been proposed in a paper published in Europhysics Letters by James Henderson and Brian McNeil [1]. The EEHG method creates a beam of electrons that possesses a phase correlated modal structure of their microbunching in frequency space. Using analysis and simulations, the authors show that this can be exploited by injecting the beam into a Mode-Locked FEL radiating structure [2], to generate a train of short-pulses (~106 attoseconds FWHM duration) at x-ray wavelengths – see Figure.
The importance of short FEL pulses could be seen at the LCLS facility in 2010-11 when, for the first time, structural information of tiny protein nano-crystals was captured and the first single shot images of intact viruses were recorded using the longer duration SASE output. With a coherent train of much shorter pulses, in effect an x-ray stroboscope, it may be possible to go further and create clear 'molecular movies' of other important chemical and biological processes.

Comments: PD Dr. Thorsten Hüller, Sfb 597, University of Bremen.
In his talk, Ruiz-Rufino will analyse the major short-comings of Spanish democracy and the reforms needed to eradicate them. Aimed at contributing to the debate on democracy, he will focus on questions that formed part of the social and political agenda of the country during 2011, in particular related to the criticisms and proposals raised during the demonstrations of the 15-M movement. Their claims fall into two categories: One relates to the weakness of representative power regarding the lack of representation of political parties and Parliament caused by a bias in the electoral system towards the two main parties and the weakness of political power when confronted with the markets or non-representative bodies such as the European Central Bank (ECB). The second theme relates to issues of misconduct by politicians (corruption, privilege, incompatibility of occupying various positions of responsibility) and citizens' control over public authorities (claims for greater transparency).
You can find the related paper to Dr. Ruiz-Rufinos lecture here.
RUBEN RUIZ-RUFINO is Lecturer in International Politics in the Department of Political Economy at King's College London. He is a doctor member at the Juan March Institute since 2005 when he finished his Ph.D. in political science under the supervision of Prof. Adam Przeworski (NYU). He was a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute (EUI) in Florence, Juan de la Cierva Fellow at the Institute of Politics and Public Goods (IPP-CSIC) in Madrid and García Pelayo Fellow at the Center for Political and Constitutional Studies (CEPC) until 2013. His research focuses comparative electoral systems and the effect of political representation in divided societies and has been published in journals like Electoral Studies, European Journal of Political Research, West European Politics or Political Studies. He is currently engaged in understanding pre-electoral forms of misconduct under a joint research project sponsored by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.

Thinking about New Year's Eve plans? Start looking for your childcare now.

How about a nice, quiet evening at home with the kids on New Year's Eve? If that didn't sound like an appealing option before, it might be after you see these babysitting rates.
According to Care.com, a network that connects caregivers with families, the average hourly rate for a baby sitter on New Year's Eve is $16.40, more than $1 more than average, nationally. If you're in New York, San Francisco or Boston, expect to pay around $19 per hour, per child.
If you have more than one child, that could easily add up to more than $30 an hour on New Year's Eve — at least.
Celebrating the holidays can be pretty expensive, and ringing in the New Year can be especially pricey for parents! Buzz60's Maria Mercedes Galuppo has more.
What else would you expect on the biggest night for babysitting jobs?
If you're a procrastinator, that rate can continue to climb. The caregiving website shows that more than half of the families they polled were willing to pay more for a last-minute sitter and some would pay an additional $5 more per hour.
To avoid the "babysitting rush," try booking your sitter two to three weeks in advance. It might put you ahead of the curve if you book this weekend — 56 percent of the families surveyed by the site said they will be finding their caregiver at least two weeks in advance of New Year's Eve.

AI detects 1,210 new potential gravitational lenses in the search for dark matter
The lenses were spotted by deep residual neural networks

AI has identified more than 1,2o0 new possible gravitational lenses, which could help unravel the mysteries of dark matter.
The lenses are formed when a vast amount of matter — like a cluster of galaxies — bends the direction of light traveling from more distant galaxies. The lenses then typically appear as arcs and streaks.
These images can help scientists infer the existence of dark matter — which the naked eye can't see — by observing its gravitational effects on the visible matter.
Unfortunately, they're seriously hard to spot.
"Only when a galaxy is hidden directly behind a giant galaxy is a lens possible to see," said Xiaosheng Huang from the University of San Francisco, the study lead author. "When we started this project in 2018, there were only about 300 confirmed strong lenses."
[Read: How much does it cost to buy, own, and run an EV? It's not as much as you think]
The researchers tried to increase the number by using deep residual neural networks to scan survey data.
They first trained the model on 632 observed lenses and lens candidates, as well as 21,000 non-lenses.
They then applied the neural networks to a giant map of the sky called the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys.
The system detected 1,210 new candidate lenses — more than double the number of known gravitational lenses. Their discovery could help astronomers learn more about the mysterious dark matter.
"I really thought it would be many years before anyone would find this many gravitational lenses," said David Schlegel, a senior physicist at Berkeley Lab who participated in this study.
"It's just amazing to know that you're seeing, very clearly, space itself being warped by a massive object."

Meet the pros you'll be learning from
HOME | DESTINATIONS | PACKAGES | REQUEST INFO | INSTRUCTORS | CORPORATE RETREATS | REGISTRATION
Contact Marlin University's Jennifer Dudas or 407-533-0123
Capt. Jen Copeland
Senior Editor of Marlin, Copeland is a 20-plus year marine industry professional who recently completed a 14-year tenure as captain of Three Cs, a 50-foot Viking in North Key Largo, Florida. Having worked as a dockmaster, deckhand, captain, assistant tournament director, and freelance writer, she still fishes competitively for sailfish in her home waters of South Florida and for big-game wherever her travels might take her.
Debbi David
Debbi is married to Capt. Jimmy David of the L&H and has three wonderful children. She grew up on the water in South Florida and has been fishing since she was a little girl. Debbi has chased billfish in South Florida, Oregon Inlet, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Isla Mujeras, St. Thomas, Cape Verde, and Hawaii racking up numerous tournament victories along the way.
Capt. Brad Goodrich
Capt. Brad Goodrich is based out of Islamorada in the Florida Keys. Capt Brad has been a full-time freelance captain and crew member for the past 15 years. Freelancing has allowed him the opportunity to fish and work side by side with some of the best crews and owners in many of the best fishing locations on the planet. Having spent so much time in so many exotic locations with so many different people has helped mold Brad into a world-class crew member and teacher. From grunts to granders, and novice anglers to the most experienced salts around, he has been a vital part to their successes. We know Brad is excited to be on our team at Marlin University.
Capt. Bo Jenyns
Bo Jenyns was born into a fishing family in Brisbane, Australia. His legendary father, Capt. Ron Jenyns, won nine consecutive Australian sailing championships, represented Australia at three Olympic Games, and was one of the pioneers of the Great Barrier Reef black marlin fishery, taking Bo to the Reef for the first time when he was 16 years old. Ron taught Bo everything he kew about marlin fishing, and Bo continued to hone his skills over the next 17 seasons on the Reef.
In addition to the Great Barrier Reef, Bo Jenyns has traveled the world's big game fishing grounds in such places as Ghana, Madeira, Kona, Bermuda, Mexico, Hatteras, and the Gulf Coast in search of giant marlin, and has been a part of Marlin University five times. Bo has been fortunate to fish with some of the best captains and crews in the world including Darren Haydon, Clay Hensley, Darren Isaacs, Dean Butler, Bill and Greg Edwards, Jason Holtz, Jarad Boshammer, Frank Kogolegbah, Dave Cassa, Jason "Tiny" Walcott, Billy Fairburn, Ricky Jones, Dana Boardman, Russ Housby, Johnny Uhr, Momi Bean, Joe Crawford, Tim Richardson and Bill Crawford.
During his career, Jenyns has caught over 1,900 marlin, weighed numerous granders — releasing even more — been involved with 10 World Records, and was recognized as Top Mate of the Year by Marlin magazine in 2008.
Jenyns moved to South Florida in 2009 to be more centrally located and is available to help those who want to land the fish of a lifetime.
Robert 'Fly' Navarro
Fly Navarro has amassed a considerable amount of experience thanks to an unrelenting passion for big-game fishing. He's fished all over the world as both captain and mate, and remains just as focused on the sport today as he ever was growing up in South Florida. As a longtime deckhand for the world-famous Reel Tight operation, Navarro became intimately knowledgeable of the Caribbean waters, especially those of the famed North Drop off St. Thomas. Having worked for so long as one of the sport's top deckhands, he is perhaps the best teacher when the subject turns to the art of rigging natural bait, dredges, teasers, lures, knots and terminal tackle.
Never content to remain still for more than a few moments, Navarro currently splits his time as a freelance captain and tournament mate while also serving as the Tournament Director for such notable events as the World Cup Blue Marlin Championship, the Gulf Cup, The Sailfish Tournament and the season-long King of the Hill. He operates Fly Zone Fishing, which continues to expand its reach among the marlin fishing community. In his spare time, he can usually be found beneath a pair of kites off Palm Beach in an attempt to catch just one more sailfish before the sun sets for the day.
Charles Perry
At 70 years young, Charles Perry just might be the best leaderman in the world today. And with good reason; he's been at it since he was 6 years old when his father used to drag him out of church to go fishing on Sundays. "My father was 55 when I was born, so we kind of had a grandfather/grandson relationship; he took me everywhere with him and taught me how to hunt and fish from the very beginning. We didn't catch anything we didn't clean and didn't shoot anything we didn't eat."
Perry caught the sport-fishing bug after spending some R&R time in Australia during his service in Vietnam. "I found out where the fishing was and came back in 1972, riding my unicycle up the highway to Cairns. I missed the season but came back the next year and caught a bunch over 1,000 pounds. That's when I really got into the fishing game. And since I was catching them with throttle jockeys like Capt. Peter Wright, every fish was an adventure. Back then I really fought them on the leader as much as the angler did on rod and reel. But when you're young and strong, you really love that stuff. I'm not any better or any more famous than anybody else; I've just outlived everybody."
Even with all the fish he's seen, Perry says it's the people who really make fishing worthwhile. "The people you meet and make friends with are truly a priceless part of big-game fishing. Don't get me wrong; the fishing is great - and I love to catch them - but the real joy is hanging out with a bunch of people who love the same things that you do."
Passion is what describes Capt. Ray Peterson. Ray grew up in Plantation, FL. catching Snook and Tarpon in the neighborhood canals. The passion grew over time. In high school and college Ray's free time was spent charter fishing and one thing led to the next. Now, a 23 year veteran sport fish captain, he has traveled the world fishing and is honored to be able to share his knowledge and expertise to hone in your Marlin fishing skills. If it swims, Ray will teach you how to catch it , making life long great memories along the way.
Chessy Ricca
Chessy Ricca is a Palm Beach County native who is currently working on her Master's degree in Florida Studies from USF St. Petersburg. With a Bachelors degree in Fine Art and a Masters in Florida History, Chessy brings a unique and colorful flair to the east coast. Her experience on the water ranges from working on a drift boat to mating on a handful of center consoles, along with the occasional freelance position on sport fishing vessels. She has worked offshore tournaments such as the Silver Sailfish Derby and numerous KDWs. Chessy's most recent position has been on an Ocean Master 31' out of Jupiter, Florida, specializing in live-baiting for sailfish, dolphin, and wahoo. Working as a first mate in the industry for almost 10 years, Chessy has learned the ins and outs of live-baiting for sailfish. When Chessy is not focused on her Florida studies, you will probably find her painting Florida scenery in oils or fly fishing her local beaches.
Capt. George Sawley
Capt. George Sawley grew up in the Florida Keys and started fishing commercially for his father while still in elementary school. After school, Sawley would hit the charter docks, washing boats and doing odd jobs for the chance to go offshore. His hard work paid off, and soon, he was spending his weekends working for the local charter boats.
After graduating from high school, Sawley became a full-time mate on a busy charter boat out of Hawks Cay Marina on Duck Key. In 1992, Sawley landed his first position as captain on a private boat where he fished tournaments and pursued world records throughout the Caribbean, Central and South America.
Sawley now builds advanced-composite skiffs for shallow-water fishing, with his last captain's job was on the 57-foot Spencer Yacht, Stalker. Sawley ran the Stalker for 13 years, racking up over 6,000 billfish releases on light tackle and fly in all the world's best billfishing destinations. He and his crew released 1,736 striped marlin in a single season, and no captain has caught more Atlantic blue marlin on fly. With over 10,000 billfish captures to his credit, it's a safe bet that Capt. George Sawley can teach you a thing or two.
Editor-in-Chief of Marlin, Sam White grew up offshore fishing in North Carolina before moving to Florida in 2002 to continue pursing his passions of fishing and writing. He's an avid tournament angler as well, having won several events in Mexico and Central America.

Epistemology and Inference.Henry Ely Kyburg - 1983 - Univ of Minnesota Press.details
_Epistemology and Inference _ was first published in 1983. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Henry Kyburg has developed an original and important perspective on probabilistic and statistical inference. Unlike much contemporary writing by philosophers on these topics, Kyburg's work is informed by issues that have arisen in statistical theory and practice as well as issues familiar to professional philosophers. In two (...) major books and many articles, Kyberg has elaborated his technical proposals and explained their ramifications for epistemology, decision-making, and scientific inquiry. In this collection of published and unpublished essays, Kyburg presents his novel ideas and their applications in a manner that makes them accessible to philosophers and provides specialists in probability and induction with a concise exposition of his system.

In this work Henry Kyburg presents his views on a wide range of philosophical problems associated with the study and practice of science and mathematics. The main structure of the book consists of a presentation of Kyburg's notions of epistemic probability and its use in the scientific enterprise i.e., the effort to modify previously adopted beliefs in the light of experience. Intended for cognitive scientists and people in artificial intelligence as well as for technically oriented philosophers, the book also provides (...) a general overview of the philosophy of science for the non-philosopher by one of the leading authorities in the field.

The programs not only upgrade their academic qualifications but expose immigrants to how their profession is practised in Canada.
Stories abound – and they're not all apocryphal – of foreign-trained professionals in Canada having to drive a taxi to earn a living. A 2006 survey by Citizenship and Immigration Canada, as the department was then called, found that there were 1,525 taxi drivers in Canada with a master's degree and 255 with a doctorate or medical degree.
The 2006 Canadian census reveals that occupational underemployment is a significant problem for immigrants. This costs the federal and provincial governments billions of dollars in potential income tax revenues. Four years after their arrival in Canada, the majority of immigrants still work in jobs that are not commensurate with either their education or the jobs they had in their homeland.
Engineering is the most common professional field of study for immigrants to Canada. But, in 2006, only 19 percent of immigrants who graduated in engineering and were employed in Canada were working as engineers, versus 42 percent of Canadian-born individuals who graduated in engineering.
The disparity was even more pronounced in medicine. While 92 percent of Canadian-born individuals who studied medicine were working as doctors in 2006, only 56 percent of immigrants with the same field of study were practising in the profession.
Several Canadian universities offer bridging programs to help foreign-trained professionals – dentists, engineers, pharmacists, teachers and others – overcome barriers to accreditation and integrate successfully into Canadian society. The programs not only upgrade their academic qualifications but expose them to how their profession is practised in Canada.
University Affairs examined the bridging programs for four different professions at four Canadian universities.
Jimmy Buena, 38, has a doctorate of education and taught computer science and mathematics as a university professor for nine years in his native Philippines before he emigrated to Canada in 2009. After settling in Edmonton and gaining permanent resident status, he hoped to teach in the Alberta school system.
Due to a bureaucratic mix-up, however, it took three years for his teaching credentials to be assessed by Alberta Education, which is responsible for teacher certification in the province. "Meanwhile, I worked as a server at a Denny's restaurant," he recalls. "It was frustrating." He wasn't sure whether he would ever have the opportunity to teach, especially when the professional standards branch of Alberta Education assessed his academic qualifications to be insufficient.
However, the branch referred Dr. Buena to the University of Alberta's faculty of education, which offers the Internationally Educated Teachers (IET) Bridging Project. Funded with $200,000 annually from Alberta Education, the project provides free tuition for up to 12 IETs a year as they earn from 24 to 30 additional credits to meet provincial standards for certification.
Randolph Wimmer, who co-founded the 12-month program in September 2013 and is now interim dean of the faculty of education, says he is committed to keeping the program going even if provincial funding eventually stops.
"The practicum was the most valuable part," says Dr. Buena. "At first I felt so intimidated by my accent and pronunciation, but I was able to overcome that." The Catholic elementary/junior high school in Edmonton where he did his placement was sufficiently impressed that it hired him as soon as he completed the bridging program in May 2015. He now teaches math, science, health and Tagalog, the Filipino national language (many of the students at his school are of Filipino origin).
The current IET cohort comprises 11 participants from nine countries. Teachers from countries that are culturally similar to Canada, such as the U.S., the U.K. and Australia, are excluded. The program hasn't yet had to turn away applicants for lack of space. For this summer's intake, "we had a record 19 interviews for 11 spots, but many are struggling with achieving the English-language proficiency requirements," says project coordinator Brent McDonough.
Université de Montréal offers a bridging program for foreign-trained pharmacists: the programme de qualification en pharmacie, or QeP. Since the QeP's inception in 2011-12, a total of 107 candidates have graduated. The current cohort is 35, selected from 121 who applied. The QeP must admit at least 25 participants in order to receive an annual subsidy from Quebec's Ministère de l'Éducation et de l'enseignement supérieur du Québec.
The program runs 16 months and requires participants to earn up to 64 credits, though the number can be much lower, depending on the assessment of academic qualifications by the Ordre des pharmaciens du Québec (OPQ). The foreign-trained pharmacists on average pay $1,600 in tuition, the same amount per credit that Quebec students pay for U de M's pharmacy degree program.
The QeP is one of two routes foreign-trained pharmacists can follow to become licensed in Quebec. The other is to pass the country-wide exam administered by the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada. "Their success rate is not all that high, so a number of candidates decide to apply to the QeP," says Marie-Claude Vanier, director of the QeP. The QeP itself has an overall success rate of 88 percent.
Completion of the QeP does not by itself entitle graduates to practise in Quebec. The final step in that process is an internship mandated by the Ordre des pharmaciens. It is both lengthy and unpaid, and the graduates have to find these internships themselves, without help from the Ordre or QeP.
Ever Andres Herrera Cantor, 31, and his wife, Maria Fernanda Castro Herrera, 29, were pharmacists in Colombia for four years before emigrating to Quebec in 2013. They were seeking an improved quality of life and a more patient-oriented practice than was possible in Colombia.
Through his involvement with Colombia's pharmacists' council, Mr. Herrera Cantor had met pharmacists from other countries and decided Canada offered the best prospects. "At the time, it was easier and quicker to come to Quebec than to other provinces, and we were familiar with the QeP," he says.
It took six months to gain the Ordre's approval to apply for the QeP. Before starting the program in January 2015, the couple managed to find part-time work in their field – he as a technician in a pharmacy, she with a pharmaceutical company – while studying to upgrade the basic-level French they had learned in Colombia.
They're pleased that, unlike the Colombian universities – which emphasize pharmacology, or the study of drugs – the QeP also focuses on pharmacotherapy, the use of drugs for the clinical care of patients.
After completing the QeP, Mr. Herrera Cantor wants to acquire experience and savings as a staff pharmacist, then become a pharmacy owner. Ms. Castro Herrera, for her part, wants to complete her remaining internships before deciding on her career niche.
Ryerson's faculty of engineering and architectural science has been offering the Internationally Educated Engineers Qualification Bridging (IEEQB) Program for the past decade. The program enables foreign-trained engineers to meet the academic requirements for licensure by Professional Engineers Ontario as a professional engineer in the province.
The IEEQB program initially received dedicated federal and provincial funding, but now relies entirely on faculty resources and tuition fees. It accepts candidates three times a year, averaging 15 to 20 participants at each intake. Participants must first have their academic qualifications assessed by PEO to determine which courses they need.
"We don't offer courses specially designed for the IEEQB," says Liping Fang, program director. "The internationally educated engineers take courses with our regular students and pay the same tuition [per course] as they do. Each has an individualized study plan." It takes about a year to complete the program. A 60 percent grade is required to pass each course exam. About 72 percent of candidates have successfully completed the program.
Civil engineering is the most popular of the engineering disciplines among the participants. Once they meet the academic requirements, candidates must satisfy the work experience requirement (48 months, including 12 months of engineering-related work in Canada) and pass PEO's professional practice exam.
While still in Brazil, he contacted PEO and learned which courses he would need to take in Ontario to meet its academic requirements. "The accreditation process was fair and straightforward," he says. Through an online search, he discovered Ryerson's IEEQB program.
"The course content was mostly material that I had studied in Brazil," he says. "The most difficult part was mastering the English-language terminology. I had to refer to some non-course materials for that." He did six courses, for which tuition was a "pricey" $4,000. During his final three months, he worked part-time as an IT technician for Ryerson's media studies department.
Mr. Ribeiro, 31, says it would be helpful if the bridging program included internship opportunities. "As it was, I was flying solo when I did my job search." Still, even before writing his final exams, he applied to several companies and landed a job with AECOM, a multinational civil engineering firm. Since 2014, he has worked as a computer-assisted design drafter, producing civil and architectural drawings for rail and transit projects.
Ryerson also offers bridging programs for doctors, dietitians, social workers and midwives. Its latest is the Internationally Trained Medical Doctors Bridging Program. Launched in January 2015, it has graduated 14 candidates and accepted a second cohort of 14 (out of 150 applicants). The program is not intended to lead directly to licensure as an MD in Canada, says the Chang school's Dr. Bountrogianni, but rather equips participants for alternative, well-paid jobs in the health sector.
UBC's faculty of dentistry has, for at least 15 years, run the International Dental Degree Completion Program, or IDDCP. This two-year program leads to the doctor of dental medicine degree, or DMD.
For the current IDDCP cohort, which graduates in 2017, the program had 99 applicants, interviewed 29 and accepted seven. The usual cohort is no larger than 12 candidates. Dean of dentistry Charles Shuler says all of the program's graduates have gotten licenses.
Once in the program, he liked UBC's emphasis on the practical rather than theory. "More than half the time, we were involved with the dental clinic, treating people." Since graduating and gaining a license, Dr. Dabboos has returned to Ontario, where he practised first in Hamilton, then bought an existing dental practice in Barrie.
While the individuals profiled above are success stories, the graduates of bridging programs amount to only a fraction of the foreign-trained professionals seeking accreditation in Canada. For the rest, the taxi meter is still running.


I recently installed the most recent version of PCSX2 and got Gundam V Gundam Zeta and Federation V Zeon on it.
The game runs fine, I've made keybindings for all 26 keys. I can skip the intro just fine and navigate the menus.
The problem is that whenever I try to hit a button inside a menu (i.e. Game options> save/load, or Arcade mode> new game) the button does nothing. I've tried pressing every single key on my keyboard, and only the keys that move the menu up and down work. The game will not start since I my start button config isn't responding (for some reason). As I mentioned before, however, I can enter the menus with the same start button. It simply won't press the button if it's in another menu.
I'll try posting any relevant data here.
I have a Nvidia 660. 16GB of ram, Intel i7-3770 3.40GHz. 64-bit system.
If there are any other questions, just leave them here.
Just updated to the newest version. I loaded the lilypad file i saved, changed my configs back to what I had up in the original post.
Still nothing. The game won't allow me to start the game, despite my start button working.
I tried remapping everything. Didn't work. Also having 2 bindings for keys doesn't change a thing. It just adds an alternate button.
okay, just to see if its something specific with the game or not, have you tried it with any other game which isn't a Gundam game?

I don't believe this is an issue with Gundam games, Federation V Zeon should work.
I just finished setting up Castlevania Curse of Darkness. The game launches fine and I have started a new game. With the same exact controls that I used to start Castlevania, I was unable to start Gundam Federation V Zeon. The game will not allow me to start a new game.
Thanks for all the quick replies, everyone!
Wow! That fixed it! I changed the EE setting to "Full" from "Normal" and it works now! Thanks a lot for the help.
Now do I need to edit the post to explain that it's solved or what?

Jennifer L. Weaver Fireplace Room Dedication Scheduled
GETTYSBURG - The Gettysburg Campus of HACC will dedicate the Jennifer L. Weaver Fireplace Room on Monday, April 1, 2013 at 3:30 p.m. at a ceremony to be held on the campus with a reception immediately following the dedication.
Jennifer Weaver, under whose leadership HACC's Gettysburg Campus was established and thrived, retired as vice president of the campus on March 23, 2012 and died Saturday, July 28, 2012.
"For 22 years, Jennifer worked tirelessly for students and employees at the Gettysburg Campus and was a valued member of the College's leadership team. She was a collaborator, mentor, counselor and friend to those who knew her," said John J. "Ski" Sygielski, Ed.D., president of Harrisburg Area Community College."Because of Jennifer's dedication to the HACC and Gettysburg communities, she was a catalyst for change, creating many partnerships that will continue to benefit students, employees and area residents. It is only fitting that we name one of her favorite rooms on the campus to honor her legacy at the College."
In 1990, Weaver came to HACC with the vision to build a Gettysburg site that would meet the needs of people and businesses that call Adams County home. Under her leadership, the campus now attracts nearly 2,000 students and has expanded from limited courses to a wide range of associate degrees as well as a comprehensive program of workforce training courses and programs.
Weaver oversaw HACC's Gettysburg presence from its first location with offices in the Gettysburg Area School District administration building, to the former Gettysburg Fire Department building on York Street in 1992, to its current location in 1997 at a former shopping mall on Old Harrisburg Pike. She led two major renovations and expansions that turned the site into a state-of-the-art college campus.
Members of the community are invited to join the campus in this dedication ceremony. To support her commitment to student success, particularly for those of Hispanic origin or first-generation college students, Weaver established the Jennifer Weaver Scholarship Award Fund in 2011 through the HACC Foundation. The fund provides scholarships to students enrolled at HACC's Gettysburg Campus who demonstrate unmet financial need. To make a gift to the Jennifer Weaver Scholarship Award Fund, contact Shannon Harvey, campus vice president, at 337-3855, ext. 113003 or ssharvey@hacc.edu or make your tax-deductible gift online at HACC Foundation's secure website http://hacc.edu and click the Donate Now button. Contributions are payable to the HACC Foundation, c/o Jennifer Weaver Scholarship Award Fund and can be sent to the HACC Foundation, One HACC Drive, Harrisburg, PA 17110-9989.

Nanobiotechnology research cooperation between India and Australia
The Nov. 28, 2010 news item on Nanowerk features a nanotechnology project which seems to have been 120 years in the making,
Professor Den Hollander Vice-Chancellor and President of Deakin University was excited as well about this partnership and said, 'Alfred Deakin first recognized the possibilities of India and Australia working together nearly 120 years ago. It is pleasing for everyone at Deakin and TERI [The Energy and Resources Institute] to be involved in a partnership that not only fulfils his prophecies but which has mutual benefits for both nations," She further added, 'For Deakin to be partnered with such an organization led by a man of Dr. Pachauri's [TERI, Director-General] standing is a massive complement. We hope to use the agreement with TERI as a model for other partners.'
Dr. R. K. Pachauri is a world-renowned economist and the head of the Nobel Prize winning UN Climate panel. TERI, The Energy and Resources Institute in India, and Deakin University in Australia have recently signed a memorandum of understanding,
The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), India and Deakin University, Australia signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to announce the setting up of a Centre of Excellence, the TERI-Deakin Nano Biotechnology Research Centre in the field of Nano Biotechnology in India. This development is an outcome of TERI's core capability of knowledge creation and development of efficient, environment friendly technologies and Deakin's India Research Initiative (DIRI) which is committed towards establishing a lasting association with industry partners in India to chart a vibrant culture of research and scholastic excellence.
The initiative is also aimed at bridging the gap between industry and academia through research and collaboration of world leading experts, which will enable efficiency, effectiveness and provide solutions for a sustainable future through the utilization of biotechnology. The TERI- Deakin Nano Biotechnology Research Centre will bring to the fore Deakin's expertise in the design and characterization of novel nanomaterials while TERI's Biotechnology and Management of Bioresource Division (BMBD) will bring their wealth of experience in biotech applications in pharmacology, food, agriculture and environmental areas.

Nanotechnology and European space technology initiatives
They're holding a conference right now (Nov. 29 & 30, 2010) in Belgium about space technology and scientific areas such as nanotechnology, not usually directly associated with space, that might be useful. From the Nov. 29, 2010 news item on Nanowerk,
Dr. Alberto Tobias from the European Space Agency (ESA) commented: "Space shares the technology and industrial base with other sectors and open innovation is the rule. In some domains technology advances faster in terrestrial sectors and if space enters the game, it can become a lead user. Bringing the two domains together offers many benefits: better products and lower costs for space; and an increased innovation for terrestrial industries, driven by space research."
TECHBREAK combines a forward view of space sciences with the forward view of technology coming from non-space areas. It will be using a classification of non-space disciplines under the broad headings of 'Key Enabling Technologies' which were identified in 2009 by the European Commission as being likely to be the driving forces behind future European developments. During the launching conference, participants will present the different problems, their work, goals and limitations, and brainstorm and answer related targeted discussions. Participants to the conference will then attempt to match key enabling technologies from both space and non-space and identify gaps and to define if necessary the contents of further specialised workshops in support of this activity.
You can read more about the TECHBREAK conference here. (I gather this initiative is being funded by the European Science Foundation.)

Award-winning science outreach: Ask a Biologist
Before the 'Ask a Biologist' website won its Science Prize for Online Resources in Education, or SPORE, award from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), there was a scholarly October article in the Public Library of Science (PLoS) written by the project's developer, Charles Kazilek.
Since 1997, Ask A Biologist has grown from a single page on Arizona State University's School of Life Sciences website to more than 2,500 pages of content. More than 150 scientists and experts support the "Ask a" section, which has now offered insight to more than 25,000 perplexed or curious children and adults. The School of Life Sciences is the home for a large group of biology experts who can provide insights on a wide range of topics. Questions are routed to appropriate faculty and graduate student experts through a common email address which protects any single person from being inundated with questions. It also provides a level of review, and an opportunity to revise answers to ensure they are grade appropriate.
In addition to the core question and answer (Q & A) feature, a strong conduit between the public and the working scientist, Ask A Biologist has grown to involve scientists in content creation. The site has also evolved to include multiple media formats. Audio interviews with scientists, video, teachers' tools, photo galleries, and games have been developed to accommodate different types of learners and meet the expectations of nearly one million visitors, yearly. [ref. to figure removed]
The Oct. 14, 2010 news item on physorg. com offers a more lively perspective than is possible with a scholarly article,
"A key-stroke can bring the world to one's laptop, but nothing substitutes for a living, breathing expert," says Kazilek, director for technology integration and outreach in ASU's School of Life Sciences.
The experts backing up Dr. Biology are more than 150 volunteer scholars at ASU, which include professors, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in the School of Life Sciences and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The popularity of the site has also attracted an army of off-campus volunteers from around the world.
"Scientists, educators and science Web developers often don't realize that great graphics and in-depth content are only part of why 'Ask A Biologist' is popular," Kazilek says. "People still need people."
(I have a feeling I've featured this quote before but my website searches don't yield it.)
A Nov. 25, 2010 news item on physorg.com celebrates the AAAS award,
What set Arizona's Ask A Biologist apart? Reading interventionist Joan Howell with the Phoenix Elementary School District, a teacher for 20 years, says that it is Kazilek. "Charles simply knows how to connect with children," she says. "He has combined science and art and created a wonderful vehicle for learning. It keeps you aware of the Web, it's something local, it shows that ASU is a leading institution and it's infectious. We are very thankful at our school and in our district. He has opened up a world of possibility."
Kazilek's virtual world is kaleidoscopic, encompassing coloring pages, image and zoom galleries, games, stories, science career pages, teacher's resources, experiments, and language translations into Spanish and French. Entrancing more than a million visitors a year from across the globe, favorite offerings from amongst the 2,500 pages of content are the Ugly Bug contest and the Ask A Biologist's podcast, which injects children's voices, as co-hosts, in the website's audioprogramming (http://askabiologist.asu.edu/explore/watch_listen).
"The Ugly Bug contest teaches kindergarteners to sixth graders how to look at things closely," says Howell. "The details of the bugs inspire all sorts of questions. It's a wonderful skill for children to develop. They don't even realize that they are learning."
The numbers are telling: more than 10,735 votes have been cast to determine 2010's ugliest bug since it debuted on Oct. 31. Locked in battle are top contenders, the assassin bug and yellow dragonfly (http://askabiologist.asu.edu/activities/ubc).
Congratulations to Charles Kazilek and 'Ask a Biologist'.

Graphene video
The graphene video jumps in right away. No introduction. But, if your interest in graphene was provoked by the recent Nobel Prize in Physics being awarded to two scientists (Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov) for their research on graphene, the video demonstrates how the scientists used sticky tape to isolate graphene sheets. The video was produced by The Vega Science Trust and COST [European Cooperation in Science and Technology] Action MP0901 "NanoTP", according to the Nov. 26, 2010 news item on Azonano. The host, Jonathan Hare, demonstrates how you can separate graphene sheets with sticky tape and a pencil,

Science and politicians in the UK
There's an interesting post by scientist Emily Nurse about her experience shadowing British MP (member of Parliament), Gavin Barwell. From the Five things I learnt when shadowing an MP posting on The Guardian science blog, Life and Physics,
I was paired [as part of the Royal Societies Pairing Scheme programme] with Gavin Barwell, the new conservative MP for Croydon central. I applied for the scheme with the hope to educate myself about how political decisions about science are made, and to understand how us scientists can become more involved. The first part of the scheme consisted of a week in Westminster, two days of tours and talks about Science in government and parliament, then two days shadowing our respective pairs. The second part will involve reciprocal visits where the MPs/civil servants shadow their pairs for a day or two.
She notes five things she learned, I'm excerpting the three that I think are the most salient from a Canadian perspective,
1. There are a lot of scientific governmental and parliamentary bodies!
The ones we learnt about include: Chief Scientific Advisors Committee, Science Advisory Councils and Committees, Council for Science and Technology, Science and Engineering Advice in Emergencies (SAGE), Science and Engineering Assurance programme (SEA), Foresight Projects, Foresight Horizon scanning, the House of Commons and House of Lords Select Committees, House of Commons Library, The Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology (POST)… etc! Wow… and, to be honest, I'm still very hazy on the subtle differences between them all.
2. The Science and Technology Select Committees really do look into how well government deals with scientific issues.
I sat in on one of their meetings dealing with an enquiry into "Scientific advice and evidence in emergencies" where they discussed how well prepared the government was in the volcanic ash crisis, whether decisions were evidence based, etc. See here for the transcript. What's more, I learnt that it is possible for scientists to influence these enquiries by responding to calls for evidence or even making suggestions for enquiry topics. Good to know.
5. Some politicians really do see the value in science.
In the recent spending review the science budget was protected, in flat cash terms at least. It seems the government ring-fenced the budget in a realisation of the importance science plays in the economic growth of our country. I asked Gavin if politicians also valued the bigger picture too, science is not just about short-term economic gain but about advancing humanity on a global and very long term scale. Gavin certainly gets this, and I think some other politicians do too. During the week Gavin's colleague Nicola Blackwood MP for Oxford West and Abingdon managed to secure a Westminster Hall debate on Science Research. A full transcript of the debate can be found here, in general it was extremely positive for science.
I thought points 2 and 5 helped me to better understand the importance of Preston Manning's comment about scientists and politicians in Canada needing communicate more (noted in my June 24, 2010 posting), while point 1 had me somewhat envious that there are so many agencies that are designed for communication with politicians although there does seem to be confusing number of them.
I wonder if we'll ever get the second half of the story, Barwell's experience shadowing the scientist.

I was delighted to see some follow up information about the the USA Science and Engineering Festival (Oct. 10 – 24, 2010) which I last mentioned in my Oct. 12, 2010 posting. From the Nov. 24, 2010 news item on Nanowerk,
An estimated 500,000 people attended the two-day event, which featured 550 participating organizations and 1,500 hands-on activities. Those who stopped by INBT's "Nano-Magic" booth learned about how atoms, molecules and materials have ways of building structures all by themselves.
Twelve graduate students affiliated with INBT training programs and a handful of friends of the Institute volunteered to help visitors understand the science. In addition, several of the research and news videos created by INBT's Animation Studio were on display throughout the day.
An estimated 500 to 600 people came to the INBT booth and spent from 5 to 20 minutes discussing nanotechnology, Johns Hopkins research, and INBT's training programs. This first-ever event was a major outreach opportunity for INBT and one of the first times the Institute has had a public display of this kind.
"Outreach serves an important purpose," said Denis Wirtz, INBT's associate director and professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering who came out Saturday to assist with the demonstration. "It showcases the interdisciplinary nature of INBT's work to a broad audience. But it also gives the students an opportunity to explain their research in an accessible way. These outreach activities are a requirement of their training program grants, but this skill will also help them in their future careers when explaining their work to funding sources."
It's not a full report but one so rarely sees anything after these types of events that this feels like a gift. I especially like the last line where Wirz notes that "explaining research in an accessible way" is a skill that will help students in their future careers.

Rare earths, China, and Nanosys
There's been some discussion recently about rare earths in the light of tensions between China and Japan. Here's a brief description of rare earths for anyone who's not certain what they are, from the Wikipedia essay on rare earths,
… rare earth elements or rare earth metals are a collection of seventeen chemical elements in the periodic table, namely scandium, yttrium, and the fifteen lanthanides.
Despite their name, rare earth elements (with the exception of the highly unstable promethium) are relatively plentiful in the Earth's crust, with cerium being the 25th most abundant element at 68 parts per million (similar to copper). However, because of their geochemical properties, rare earth elements are not often found in concentrated and economically exploitable forms, generally called rare earth minerals. It was the very scarcity of these minerals (previously called "earths") that led to the term "rare earth"
Here's what started the tensions (from the NY Times article by Keith Bradsher),
Chinese customs officials abruptly halted the processing of paperwork for shipments bound for Japan on Sept. 21 [2010]. The shipments were halted during an acrimonious dispute over Japan's detention of a Chinese fishing trawler that rammed two Japanese coast guard vessels two weeks earlier near islands long controlled by Japan but claimed by China.
Here's why they're so important,
Rare earths are vital to the production of a wide range of industrial products, including automobiles, glass, oil refining, computers, smartphones, wind turbines and flat-screen televisions. The military needs them for missiles, sonar systems and the range finders of tanks.
Here are some of the consequences of the ban,
Many factories in China assemble products that require high-tech components from Japan that use rare earths. Some of these factories, which employ large numbers of workers in China, have begun running low on components as Japanese suppliers ran short on some of the more obscure rare earths needed to manufacture them, two rare earth industry executives said.
Electronics industries have been affected, particularly camera manufacturers, leading to a desperate scramble for raw materials that has even included buying tons of obscure rare earth compounds from corporate stockpiles in Europe and airlifting them to Japan.
All 32 of the authorized rare earth exporters in China have refused to increase their shipments to other countries during the unannounced ban on shipments to Japan, making it difficult for Japanese traders to obtain supplies indirectly.
As a result of the blocked shipments, some rare earths now cost up to 10 times as much outside China as inside; the Chinese government has started a vigorous campaign to prevent this from leading to smuggling.
Brasher's article is very interesting and I do recommend reading all of it.
There has been one other consequence to this concern over a dependency on China's rare earths (excerpted from the Nov. 23, 2010 article by Ariel Schwartz on Fast Company),
There's just one problem: The metals are only found in high concentrations in a few sites in China, the U.S., and Australia–and China has threatened to stop exporting its supply. But instead of expanding rare earth metal mines, what if we look for more sustainable replacements?
Enter Nanosys, a company that offers process-ready materials for the LED and energy-storage markets, among other things. Nanosys has been thinking about rare earth material shortages for years, which is why the company manufactures synthetic phosphors out of common materials–not the rare earth materials (i.e. yttrium) usually used in phosphors.
"We make a semiconductor phosphor that employs a nanomaterial called a quantum dot," explains Nanosys CEO Jason Hartlove. "It's made out of indium phosphide and phosphorous, and the synthesis process is all in the lab. There's no heavy metal mining, no destructive mining practices."
Nanosys's QuantumRail LED backlighting device is made out of quantum dots, which can purportedly generate brighter and richer colors than their rare earth metal counterparts–all while delivering a higher efficiency and lower cost.
I don't know how close they are to producing these quantum dots in industrial quantities but the appeal of a process that lessens dependency on resources that have to be mined and/or be used to apply political pressure is undeniable. If you're interested, you can visit the Nanosys website here.
(They talk about 'architected' materials. I view that word with the same enthusiasm I have for 'impactful'. These people should never be allowed to invent another word, ever again.)

European Consumer Groups' response to public consultation on nanomaterial definition
The ANEC (The European Consumer Voice in Standardisation) and the BEUC (European Consumers' Organisation) have issued a joint response to the European Commission's public consultation, which was open from Oct. 21, 2010 to Nov. 19, 2010 (and mentioned in my Oct. 25, 2010 posting).
From the Nov. 23, 2010 news item on Nanowerk,
1. The proposed size range of up to 100nm is too limited
The Commission draft recommendation foresees basing the term "nanomaterial" on the size range of 1nm to 100nm. Those are also the limits contained in the ISO 27687 standard published in 2008. However, most recent scientific knowledge seems to point out that this size limit seems to be too restrictive and risks that certain nanomaterials will not be properly risk assessed with regard to their potential toxicity.
Recent studies finding that carbon nanotubes can cause the same disease as asbestos fibres received world wide attention (Poland et al. 2008; Takagi et al. 2008). Yet many of the nanotubes in the studies measured >100nm and so would not be considered to be 'nanomaterials' using a <100nm size-based definition. Poland et al. (2008) found that two samples of long, tangled multi-walled carbon nanotubes caused asbestos-like pathogenicity when introduced into the stomachs of mice. One of their two samples had a diameter of 165nm and a length of greater than 10µm. Similarly, Takagi et al. (2008) found that in a long term study, more mice died from mesothelioma following exposure to multi-walled carbon nanotubes than died following exposure to crocidolite (blue) asbestos. In this study >40% of sample nanotubes had a diameter >110nm.
Today, we still do not know enough about the new properties of materials at the nanoscale. For this reason, it will be crucial to apply a broad definition to nanomaterials. This is also confirmed by the SCENIHR's opinion that "there is no scientific evidence to qualify the appropriateness of the 100 nm value".
The approach to go beyond 100nm has already been followed by some public authorities such as the Federal Office for Public Health and the Federal Office for the Environment in Switzerland which recommend 500nm to be used as the limit of the nanoscale in order to avoid excluding any nano-specific risk.
Concrete examples where a limitation to 100nm may cause problems
– At a workshop on nanotechnologies which had been organised by DG SANCO on 22 October, it has been discussed that in the case of pharmaceuticals the size range of 100nm may be inadequate. As nanomedicines may be at the range of about 1000nm, a definition which is not appropriate for nanomedicines may hamper research and risk assessment. Thus, an EU definition needs to take into account the specific needs of nanomedicines.
– The current REACH legislation shows severe shortcomings when it comes to nanomaterials. We see an urgent need to consider all nanomaterials as new substances under REACH. Moreover, the volume threshold for registration of 1 ton per annum seems to be inadequate for nanomaterials and should be lowered to e.g. 10kg. Limiting the definition of nanomaterials to 100nm could create a new loophole in the future as substances which are slightly bigger than 100nm may escape from the above mentioned requirements that should apply to all nanomaterials.
2. Definition should include agglomerates and aggregates
A definition for regulatory purposes should include agglomerates and aggregates as they often show physiochemicals properties which may pose safety concerns. For this reason we welcome that the Draft Recommendation includes nanoparticles that have a specific surface area by volume greater than 60 m2/cm3.
You can get the entire recommendation (5 pp.) including references from here.
This puts me in mind of Health Canada's public consultation on a nanomaterials definition. I did put in a submission to the consultation which closed in August and have yet to hear of any results from this process. I did find this notice on their Interim Policy Statement on Health Canada's Working Definition for Nanomaterials page,
This consultation is now closed. Comments and suggestions received during this consultation period are being considered in any necessary revisions to the Interim Policy Statement on Health Canada's Working Definition for Nanomaterials. Health Canada will make available information to further clarify the use of this policy statement.
Couldn't they tell us how many responses they got and maybe share a little information?

Latest on silver nanoparticle toxicity
Dr. Bernd Nowack has issued another report on nanosilver. His work was first mentioned in my Sept. 8, 2010 posting which focused on how washing silver nanoparticle-treated textiles releases silver nanoparticles into the wash water. Nowack's latest work is a report recommending a more stringent approach to studying the risk that silver nanoparticles might pose to the environment. From the Nov. 22, 2010 news item by Lin Edwards on physrorg.com,
Dr. Nowack said one of the risks arises because some of the wastewater and sludge from sewage treatment plants ends up on farms in fertilizers, and could therefore enter the food chain. Another risk is that nanosilver could have a detrimental effect on the nitrifying bacteria that are vital to the effluent treatment processes, and could prevent treatment plants from working properly.
Nowack's report said in earlier studies some nanosilver had been shown to bond with sulfur in sewage sludge to produce non-toxic silver sulfide nanoparticles, but it is not known how efficient sulfur is at removing biocidal silver.

Co-writing a symposium blurb about Risk, uncertainty and sustainable innovation
Co-writing may be a little bit of an exaggeration but Andrew Maynard over at his 2020 Science blog has asked for comments about a blurb he's writing for a 2011 a symposium on Risk, Uncertainty and Sustainable Innovation being organized by the Risk Science center [at the University of Michigan] next September [2011]. Here's an excerpt,
As technologies become more sophisticated, pressures on global resources grow and society becomes ever-more interconnected, governments, businesses and citizens are facing increasingly complex challenges as they strive to build an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable future. Over the past century, technology innovation has accelerated to the point where scientists and engineers have greater control over materials, organisms and systems – from the atomic scale to the planetary scale – that ever before. This has facilitated a radical shift in global communication, leading to an interconnected society where the flow of information, ideas and influence transcends geographical, economic and social boundaries. At the same time, a growing and increasingly plugged-in world population is placing unprecedented demands on ever-scarcer global resources.
The result is a world where innovation is both a driver of and a potential source of solutions to an increasing number of emerging global challenges.

He grew up in Port Vue, PA, a little town south of Pittsburgh. At the age of 14, his family moved Harrisburg, PA but just for a year and then it was on to the Philadelphia area where he finished his high school education. Once he finished high school it was time to start out on his own, so Fr. Paul made his way to St. Louis, where he attended St. Louis University. He received a BSSW, (Social Work), from St. Louis University in 1976 and immediately went to work for the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services as a Child Care Worker. During his four and a half years with DCFS, Fr. Paul worked with abused and neglected children and their families, teenagers and was involved in specialized adoptions.


There is a large potential for increasing the share of renewable energy in the system by enabling a more efficient coupling of the different parts of the energy system. A tighter coupling is also a way of improving the capability of one sector to improve the operation of another. For example can flexibility in the heating system be used as a source of flexibility in the electricity system by controlling heat pumps based on consumer needs.
Improved flexibility in the gas infrastructure includes smart compressors and gas storage in high pressure containers as well as piping, underground wells and caverns. Improved flexibility within the heating domain includes diversity in the district heating system combining high and low temperature district heating, heat pumps, and district cooling.
Examples on improved flexibility within the power systems are smart charging and V2G of electric vehicles, electrification of transportation, battery electric energy storage (BESS), server farms, and aggregated demand response from individual consumers.
In particular the fuel shift through energy conversion between the energy infrastructures is critical to a seamless integration of gas, heat, and power. The energy conversion technology includes fuel cells, electrolysers, heat pumps, ventilation and exploitation of the heat inertia provided by buildings, and other heat & cold demanding units (hot water, refrigerators, and cooling houses/containers).
The research focuses on developing control methods that can coordinate the behaviour of the different units that can provide flexibility to ensure a stable and economical operation of the combined system.
System simulation requires increased knowledge (data collection) and modelling of user behaviour, theory and modelling of building dynamics, flow & storage dynamics in piping systems, grid integration of pumps, electrolysers & fuel cells, operation of BESS, impact of weather data, co-simulation, and integrated simulation of multiple energy systems.
A project that contributes to the challenge of transforming the energy system to efficiently integrate a large share of renewable energy.

Mozambique: According to Amnesty International, white people and even two dogs got preferential treatment during rescue operations from a hotel in Palma in Cabo Delgado in March, getting airlifted to safety.
Kenya: Kenya's High Court has declared President Kenyatta's attempt to amend the constitution (the Building Bridges Initiative) illegal and has "ruled that the president had failed the leadership and integrity test. The judges said that by initiating the constitutional changes, President Kenyatta had usurped the powers of ordinary citizens." This could be used for impeaching President Kenyatta, but it is highly unlikely that Parliament will want to do that.
West Africa: According to the article's author, who has analysed the Yaoundé Conventions (1963-75), the EU's trade partnership with West African countries have hindered diversification and industrial development and have at the same time meant that the West African signatories of such partnerships have remained in neo-colonial dependency.

Zimbabwe: You have freedom of expression but not freedom after expression. Yet female comedians resist patriarchal power relations through stand-up. While women are silenced in daily life, they feel empowered to say things on stage that they normally wouldn't: "the power relations during a set favour the comedian. They have more power to choose what will be talked about and what the interaction will look like. Do they ask the audience questions? Do they respond to hecklers; if so, how? Above all, through the use of the microphone, they are able to overpower any one single audience member's voice without shouting."

Dozens of Students Kidnapped in Central Nigeria, Officials Say
Nigerian officials said dozens of high school boys were abducted Wednesday in Niger state by gunmen disguised in military uniforms. Reports said the kidnappers killed at least one student who tried to escape during the attack, the second in Nigeria in just two months.Authorities said the attack occurred about 2 a.m. local time at the Government Science Secondary School Kagara. A teacher who escaped the raid at the boarding school for boys said hundreds of gunmen on motorcycles herded many abductees into a nearby forest and one student was killed in the process.A state government spokesperson said Wednesday that 27 people had been kidnapped, dismissing initial claims that hundreds might have been taken.A viral video released showed captives with abductors demanding about $1.4 million as ransom.Nigerian security officials did not respond to requests for an interview, but security expert Kabir Adamu said criminal gangs operating in Nigeria's northwest and central regions were to blame.Kidnapping for ransom"It's a kidnap-for-ransom situation where they're able to gather this number of persons," Adamu said. "It will be almost easy for them to now take over and then use them to negotiate some form of ransom."The government secondary school in Kagara where the attack happened has about 1,000 students. Authorities are currently profiling the students for further updates.President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered troops with aerial surveillance to go after the captors and rescue the students, according to a statement released Wednesday by his spokesperson, Garba Shehu.But experts say lack of government control over the crisis-ridden regions is the reason incidents reoccur."The locations where these schools are are vulnerable locations; they are remote locations usually that are close to these ungoverned spaces that exist in Nigeria that these criminals use as haven," Adamu said. "Then the schools' physical security is almost very weak, the fencing, sometimes the perimeter walls."Nigeria's northwest and central regions have been recording growing insecurities often carried out by criminal gangs known as bandits, kidnapping for ransom.Last December, a similar attack occurred in Katsina state but the more than 300 boys were released six days later through negotiations.


Soar: the energy of the air, focussed, drawn to the body like a cloak. Ravens are good at gathering this energy in. More specifically, soaring is the energy form of air; air is the material form of soaring. Ravens ride the edge between the two.
