NASA Contract Results In X-Ray Calorimeter Breakthrough

Sarasota, FL - Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc. and EPIR Technologies, Inc. (EPIR) announced the award of a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract to EPIR from NASA which continues to advance the companies strategy to commercialize synergistic cadmium-telluride based technologies and manufacturing processes for solar, infrared and X-ray within the renewable energy, night vision, medical and scientific markets. The Phase II contract specifically calls for the development and fabrication of prototype high-resolution X-ray calorimeters that will be integrated into future NASA missions and follows a very successful Phase I contract. X-ray calorimeters are devices used to measure the energy, or wavelength of the incoming X-ray photons.

Encryption

Im really in need of help right now. I like trying new programs out an I have been since I got my HP 111 classic. Satisfied with the programs I often use I decided to do a hard reset to take all the junk out such as recent programs I unstalled etc. I set my pda to encrypt everything I put on my SD card when I started collage an now I did a hard reset, most of my stuff don't get read because their encrypted. I tried everything I can think of with no luck, can someone help me please.... Thank you.

iPod Homiletics

For Christmas Mark and Vanessa gave me an iPod Shuffle, a neat little device, smaller than a credit card, in which I can store songs or sermons and listen to them (using the “ear buds� provided with the Shuffle) as I travel. It turned out to be a most practical and welcome gift. Once I got the hang of it, I started taking my iPod with me on every plane flight, and I even take it with me when I ride my bike. So far I have not downloaded any music. I have filled my iPod with sermons from some of America’s best preachers. I’ve listened to a ton of good preaching since January. I’ve tried to cast my net widely by downloading messages (mostly but not exclusively from iTunes) from many different speakers–some I knew, some I didn’t, younger and older, from a variety of denominations–mostly pastors but also some seminary types as

Why I Don't Want an iPhone. Wait. Why I Do.

As a person with no life who works at home and also doesn't have a televison, I spend an inordinate amount of time online. And I have noticed that tops among internet topics is the iPhone. I don't have an iPhone. I don't want an iPhone. I know if I got one I'd never figure out how to use it -- and it would embarrass me how rarely I'd have occasion to take advantage of its capabilities. No one ever calls me. Like, ever.

Green PCs: CPU Frequency Scaling in Linux

"Somehow, I’ve always had bad luck to new technologies. The world introduces more and more sophisticated methods of using the human knowledge each day, and I was always in the long tail of progress. Or simply, something didn’t want to work for me on Linux. It was similar when I tried to scale the CPU frequency. I didn’t pay much attention to this before, because the laptops I used, simply didn’t provide such a feature. Yes, I realize it was my bad luck to buy laptops like that--different Durons and Athlons, which didn't allow economical scaling, visited my poor desktop computer. So I classified this topic as: 'I don't know, nor am I interested, I'm overworked.' And then, recently, I purchased a new laptop and installed Ubuntu on it, where such things as CPU scaling work out of the box.

Hoggard's prayer is delivered

When Geoff Miller rang on Saturday morning to let me know about selection for the first Test, I was in the field at the Rose Bowl so I missed his call. I saw that I had a voicemail when I got back to the dressing-room, but I had to go to batting practice before I could hear it. When I finally listened to the message, it said only that I should call him back, no clues as to whether he had good or bad news and, try as I might, I couldn't guess anything from his tone of voice.

Jason Perlow: Ubuntu: I'm extremely impatient

Okay, I admit, I am an impatient person. I hate waiting in lines. I have a superiority complex and a tremendous arrogance where I believe the world revolves around me. Hey, I’m a New Yorker, it comes with the territory. My wife, Rachel, is infuriated by this — whenever we go to a restaurant and there is even a fifteen minute wait, I walk right out the door. On a Friday night, I’ve been known to walk in and out of five or six restaurants until I get immediate gratification.

I Hate Windows - I am Afraid of Linux

IconFirst, a little background. I am a Windows user who has been using Windows since 3.1. I am not a programmer or a developer, I am a user. I process photos, use the internet, e-mail, write letters, play the ever important games and even use it to develop my comic strips. I am not computer illiterate and I use my computer with confidence and skill. Now with that said. I hate Windows.

Never give a monkey your car keys

When I was a toddler, my parents were friends with a couple who kept a pet monkey in a cage in their dining room. Looking back on this as an adult, it seems… unwise. But I’m sure that as a kid I thought that this was The Coolest Thing Ever. They used to tease the monkey by dangling car keys just out of reach. Then one day I gave the monkey my dad’s car keys, and he (i.e. the monkey) refused to give them back. I’m sure that I found this hilarious, but I cannot remember the incident at all; I only know about it because my mother once used it as an example of what a trouble-maker I had been as a child. The lesson: never give a monkey your car keys. (Corollary: never give a monkey a gun.)

I still remember receiving my first phishing email in my AOL account. I had won the AOL lottery! As good as it sounded, I was skeptical at best. So without much thought, I opened the email and clicked on the link inside to check if I truly was a millionaire after all. Almost instantly, my computer crashed, and with each subsequent restart would crash again.

eBay in Reverse: Old Navy Averts a Tragedy

Remember a week or so ago when I developed that madras-plaid fetish? Well, it got real bad. I wanted everything in the preppy pattern. I bid on a bunch of stuff, and then for some reason (my own slowness or cheapness) I wound up with nothing. It was all sad, but the real heartbreak was the jumper, which I lost in its auction's last moments. Afterward I could not stop thinking about that piece. I mean, I had big summer plans for it: I imagined riding my bike wearing it with red round-toe flats; walking on the boardwalk in it with big sunglasses and flip-flops, perhaps eating a snow cone; throwing it on in the morning to get coffee and blog. The entire situation was a True. Ebay. Tragedy. But then I was in Old Navy on Friday, and nestled amid its lamé bikinis and hot pink maxi dresses, there it was, hiding: my new jumper.

Art requires a visual rhetoric with skill, not hypocrisy

Of all writing clichés and gimmicks that exist, the one that bothers me the most is the kitschy use of an introductory statement in which a writer admits something to the effect of, “I tried to think of something to write, but couldn’t.� The first few times I saw someone use the I-don’t-know tactic, I liked it — I thought it was endearing. And in reality, it does function as such: Admitting a weakness is a good way to connect to a reader; to confess, “I’m an average Joe, I don’t know everything,� establishes a kind of camaraderie with the audience. But the more I read, the more I began to see that the use of I don’t know is a cop-out. It’s used for shock value — a writer is writing because he knows what he’s talking about; to admit he doesn’t is to provide a surprise and generate a reader’s curiosity in the

Can I do public health with arts subjects?

I have a diploma in Hotel and Institutional Catering. I never did sciences at A’Level; I studied History, Economics, Literature and Divinity. Initially, I was interested in Education but I was told I have no teaching subjects, so I dropped the idea. Is it possible for me to pursue a Bachelors degree in Public Health or Nutrition without sciences at A’ Level? I plan to use my second class lower catering diploma.

Cubicle Security For Laptops, Electronics?

kamikasee writes "I recently found out that I'm going to be moved from an office to a cubicle. The cubicle area is not very secure, and I'm worried about things wandering off. My boss has offered to buy some equipment to help me secure things, but so far I haven't found anything that fits my requirements. Google and Amazon searches are overwhelmed by lockable key cabinets and larger pieces of furniture. Here are some of the requirements: The main issue with traditional solutions (e.g. locking things in a drawer) is convenience. I use a laptop with a second LCD monitor. There's also an external keyboard and mouse and a USB hard drive. I leave my laptop on at night so I can remote-desktop into it, so I'm not really happy about putting it in a drawer (no ventilation), plus I don't like the idea of having to 'unharness' everything every time

GPL Edutainment Software

haxot writes "I'm the technologist at a local library. In our lab, I've managed to get some recognition for tools such as GIMP and Open Office, and even such toys as Bomberman and BZFlag. Now I'm turning towards the children's computers, which are mostly filled with ancient, buggy, rather boring games that try to be interactive TV shows rather than something entertaining. I'm looking for good OSS games and education suites (preferably multi-platform — I want to be ready for an OS switch to Linux). I'm not picky about the license; I'd just like the software to actually have that 'neat' appeal. Some examples I've found already are Gcompris and Tux Paint. My focus is the 2-year old to 8-year old range, but I'm happy to hear teen-oriented suggestions too.

Practical Experience As a Beginning Programmer?

LuckyLefty01 writes "I'm 21, going to college, and working part time doing odd jobs like math tutoring. In the past nine months or so, I've discovered and taken to programming (so far mostly C/C++/Obj-C). I am now looking seriously at something in this area as an eventual full time job. Since I don't have much scheduled this coming summer, it would be great to try to get a job of some sort at a tech-related company in order to get some practical experience in the field. Even if I don't have the background to get a job involving actual programming, I think that the knowledge of how such a company works would be valuable. Fortunately, I live in the SF Bay Area, so there should be plenty of companies around. I'm flexible about what I'm going to be doing, and very willing to learn just about anything anybody cares to teach me.
