Pablove Across America 2011 Day 20 Afternoon Dedication: Mark Kattus and David Ochowicz
Mark is now 22 years old and just had his 4 year anniversary of his diagnosis; he was diagnosed at the age of 18 on October 9, 2007 with stage 3 Hodgkins Lymphoma. He went through 6 months of ABVD Chemo and when chemo was completed, he had 5 weeks of radiation. He is doing absolutely great and is living a very healthy lifestyle. He #39;s a senior at UCSD where he #39;s majoring in Astro Physics and helping to run the Rock Climbing gym on campus. He spends all of his free time climbing with his girlfriend Lauren and on occasion, he #39;ll take his little sister Venessa with him. Venessa is 14 and Mark is her hero; she loves climbing with him. This past summer he climbed the face of Half Dome in Yosemite; he started his climb at dawn and finished it at dusk...that #39;s fast! He is also a surfer and cyclist and just genuinely loves the outdoors. In 2008 the state of WI changed their laws and allowed 16 year olds to donate blood. David signed up immediately. It was from that blood drive that he discovered he had MDS, a rare form of bone marrow cancer and his only treatment option was to have a life threatening bone marrow transplant. Out of 11 million people on the bone marrow registry not a single one was a match. His dad and sister were not matches, and his mom Mary was only a partial match. They decided to use Mary as the donor anyway -- she was his only shot. Her to-do list before the surgeries included her yearly mammogram. It was then she discovered she had breast cancer.

Shri Prabodh Vekhande SIR on Bruhaspati Shukracharya
Shri Prabodh Vekhande SIR, Jyotishacharya Margdarshak, at Nagpur, Maharastra-INDIA (Contact No. 09225220895). Conducts The Jyotish Varg ( astrology classes, under name of SRI-VATS JYOTISH VIDHYALAY) on every Sunday at Durga Mandir Parisar, Pratap Nagar, Nagpur, for free. In this class, SIR has-focused on the Dristy of B #7771;haspati ( Jupiter) Shukracharya ( Venus), both are Bramhin,Guru and equal rank Adviser to the King, in the Politics of Nav-grah. But why Jupiter had given two additional dristy (eyes) ie 5th 9th, where as Venus( though having Sanjivani vidhya) got only one, the 7th, which is with all the Grahas, in common. This very important concept is explained by SIR in his unique style, sometime it is Astro Physics, sometime its Astro Politics ( of Navgrah), Astro chemistry (chemical locha) etc and by giving various RANJAN (manoranjan) examples of day to day life that, even a Lehman, in astrology, can understand. It is said, " No person in this world has ever been Rewarded for what he has received, He is always Honored for what he has given". Praying lord Vedvyas (on the auspicious day of Guru Purnima 3.7.12.) to en-shower all his treasure of knowledge on SIR, as he is not only acquiring the most secretive divine knowledge but whole heartedly given it to the mass on there level of absorbility.

Live modular synth and Waldorf MicroWaveXT. The still photos are some astrophotography I did with a Takahashi TOA150, Sbig STL11000 CCD camera, Astro Physics 900GTO mount on a Paramount pier in Maxim DL software. The pictures are of the Coat Hanger cluster, Veil Nebula, M33 galaxy and the Rho Ophiuchi nebulae region. The music includes modules from many different MU and 5U vendors but features a re-constructed Cat Girl Synth Dual Analog Shift Register that I added twelve voltage trimmers to the output buffers in order to fine tune the voltage outs.This led to tuning stability which is not common with the typical CGS design. There are both quantized and un-quantized ASR oscillators heard within the piece. A few notes were played by hand over the top of the modular on a Waldorf MicroWaveXT.From:davidryleViews:137 5ratingsTime:06:17More inMusic

Rukun Islam Kelima ini merupakan pondasi ISLAM yang kaffah dan "Inclusive", dan menunaikan ibadah HAJJI merupakan "advance education" menuju Creative Intellectual Muslim. IBADAH HAJJI terpahami keluasan dan kedalamannya maknanya, apabila Sa #39;i antara "sinus" Shafa dan Marwa dihubungkan dengan Quantum theorum atau Wave theory, dan Thawaf mengelilingi Ka #39;bah dikaitkan dengan Expanding Universe (Hubble). Kementerian Agama RI seyogyanya menyelenggarakan "Seminar Ilmiah IBADAH HAJII" yang komprehensif dan disesuaikan dengan kemajuan zaman, yaitu dalam rangka meningkatkan "effiency plus effectiveness" Penyelenggaran Haji dan Umroh. Di samping itu juga dimanfaatkan untuk mengantar Revitalisasi Falsafah Pancasila, supaya semakin luas wawasannya dan bisa diandalkan untuk pedoman menyongsong Kebangkitan MILLENNIUM CIVILIZATION. Saya berharap Kemenag RI juga membuka diri untuk menampung berbagai "ideas" yang akan disumbangkan oleh masyarakat kebanyakan, supaya spektrum makna dan manfaatnya Ibadah HAJJI menjadi semakin luas.

Space is the new black
Austrian daredevil ... "Felix Baumgartner's 38.6-kilometre freefall from the edge of space had us staring in jaw-dropping awe at screens, setting social media alight." Photo: Reuters
Space is hip again. Whether it's a Felix Baumgartner skydiving his way past the sound barrier setting Twitter and YouTube on fire or the space shuttle Endeavour pulling big crowds in the streets of Los Angeles, the final frontier is back in vogue.
Just as families the world over gathered around the box and wireless for the 1969 moon-landing, Baumgartner's 38.6-kilometre freefall from the edge of space had us staring in jaw-dropping awe at screens, setting social media alight. More than 8 million watched the livestream as the Austrian daredevil, perched on a balloon capsule surrounded by the black of space, lunged into the void and tumbled to the blue Earth below. During the jump, half of Twitter's global trending topics discussed the jump, and the first photo of his triumphant air punch landing posted on Facebook was shared 29,000 times and liked 216,000 times in 40 minutes.
On the same day in Los Angeles, thousands of people lined the streets to cheer the slow crawl of the retired shuttle's final 20-kilometre journey from the airport to the California Science Centre, where it will go on display. A constellation of eager spectators had camped out the night before.
The space trend has been growing since August coincidentally, the same month astronaut Neil Armstrong died when the SUV-sized Curiosity rover made a "death plunge" to the surface of Mars, slowing from 21,600 km/h to zero in seven minutes. The hair-raising landing appeared live on the twin screens at Times Square in New York, and was streamed to Xbox 360 dashboards worldwide.

The blogosphere promptly erupted, the ensuing coverage making a minor celebrity of flight director Bobak Ferdowski, 32. His multicoloured Mohawk haircut, created especially for the landing, scored him 54,000 new Twitter followers some making marriage proposals. A parody music video, We're NASA and We Know it (set to the tune of American electropop duo LMFAO's hit song) was out within days, and has so far had 2.5 million views.
Social media is now what television was to the early days of the space race; but it's also a more personal way for the closet space fan in all of us to connect directly with the exploration of the cosmos. Take the rover Curiosity: it has 1.2 million followers on Twitter, to whom it tweets its daily routine as well as links to pictures and video: A scoopful of Mars helps the science go down. Ready to 'rinse & spit' regolith to clean my sampling system.
NASA astronaut Mike Massimino, whose Twitter handle is @Astro-Mike, has 1.3 million followers, many of whom watched live as he became the first person to tweet from space. And shows like Big Bang Theory (23.5 million fans on Facebook) whose characters banter about Mars rovers and physics non-stop have helped make rocket science a lot cooler than it used to be.
Soon, space won't be just a vicarious pursuit: it'll be a place people will visit in their thousands. Cashed-up space entrepreneurs are popping up everywhere: Jeff Bezos (of Amazon.com fame) with his company Blue Origin; Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic; and Elon Musk of PayPal and Tesla Motors fame with Space X.

Researchers replicate white dwarf photospheres in lab using X-ray machine

(Phys.org)Researchers at Sandia Labs have used a large x-ray machine to create high-density plasma that approximates the photosphere of white dwarf stars. The team has posted a paper describing the process and how it can be used to assist astronomers to the preprint server arXiv.
White dwarfs are stars that have used up most of their fuelthey're made of mostly carbon and are covered by gasses similar to an atmosphere. Scientists use spectroscopy to identify the elements that make up the photosphere of such stars, and then use the blurringthe result of surface pressureto work out each star's gravity. With that information, researchers can calculate the star's radius and mass. This method is not precise, however, as researchers have found differences between calculations made using this method versus those found by measuring a star's movement through space.
To gain a better understanding of the nature of the gasses that surround white dwarfs, the research team at Sandia used an x-ray machine called the Z Pulsed Power Facility to heat a thin strip of gold held inside a hydrogen filled chamber. At temperatures of 10,000K, the hydrogen becomes high-density plasma (ionized gas), which, the team reports, bears a striking resemblance to gases covering white dwarf stars.
The researchers explain that by re-creating the conditions that exist in the photosphere surrounding white dwarfs they will be better able to understand what is going on with the stars themselves, as they cannot be seen through the gasses. Changing the conditions under which the plasma is created in the lab allows for the creation of a variety of gas cloud types which, in turn, allow the researchers to fine-tune their results. Eventually, they will be able to mimic conditions on individual white dwarfs, resulting in improved calculations used to describe the underlying star.
The x-ray machine is also capable of generating magnetic fields that are similar to those of white dwarf stars. By exerting such fields on the plasma generated, the researchers hope to gain a better understanding of how magnetic fields near white dwarfs impact the spectra of the gasses that surround them, which should help give a clearer picture of the stars themselves.
More information: Creating White Dwarf Photospheres in the Laboratory: Strategy for Astrophysics Applications, arXiv:1210.0832 [astro-ph.SR] arxiv.org/abs/1210.0832
Abstract Astrophysics experiments by Falcon et al. to create white dwarf photospheres in the laboratory are currently underway. The experimental platform measures Balmer line profiles of a radiation-driven, pure hydrogen plasma in emission and in absorption for conditions at T_e ~ 1 eV, n_e ~ 10^17 cm^-3. These will be used to compare and test line broadening theories used in white dwarf atmosphere models. The flexibility of the platform allows us to expand the direction of our experiments using other compositions. We discuss future prospects such as exploring helium plasmas and carbon/oxygen plasmas relevant to the photospheres of DBs and hot DQs, respectively.
