Paradise Valley Community College has been designated by G.I. Jobs magazine as a 2013 Military Friendly School based on its exceptional efforts to help America?s military service members, veterans, and their dependents succeed as students and adjust to civilian life and college.
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) September 28, 2012
Paradise Valley Community College has been designated by G.I. Jobs magazine as a 2013 Military Friendly School based on its exceptional efforts to help America?s military service members, veterans, and their dependents succeed as students and adjust to civilian life and college.More than 12,000 VA-approved schools across the country were eligible for consideration. The honor ranks PVCC in the top 15 percent of colleges, universities, and trade schools that provide quality services and are doing the most to embrace those who have served their country. PVCC was noted a good choice because of the college?s commitment to ensure that each and every veteran is provided with all the means necessary to complete his or her academic goal.
Jonathan O?Brien, who served tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, said PVCC?s Veterans? Services set him on the path toward earning his associate degree. After leaving the regimented world of the Marine Corps, he wasn?t sure what to do next. ?I knew nothing about the process of enrolling or anything school-related. PVCC Veteran?s Services told me everything I needed to know to get my ducks in a row. They were very friendly and had a good understanding of the education benefits,? he said.
?We are pleased to be recognized as a military-friendly college,? said Stella Napoles, PVCC Admissions and Records/Veterans? Services supervisor. ?We work very hard to help our student veterans and their dependents apply for and receive the educational benefits they?ve earned. ?
Napoles encourages student veterans to contact the Veterans? Services Office for assistance with benefits, student services, and other military service transition issues. The office is located on the second floor of the Kranitz Student Center. Hours are 8 am to 6:30 pm, Mondays-Thursdays and 8 am to 4 pm Fridays.

ScienceDaily (Sep. 28, 2012) ? Preliminary weather reports from the Curiosity's Remote Environment Monitoring Station (REMS) are showing some surprisingly mild temperatures during the day. Average daytime air temperatures have reached a peak of 6 degrees Celsius at 2pm local time.
A Martian day -- known as a Sol -- is slightly longer than Earths at 24 hours and 39 minutes. Temperatures have risen above freezing during the day for more than half of the Martian Sols since REMS started recording data. Because Mars's atmosphere is much thinner than Earth's and its surface much drier, the effects of solar heating are much more pronounced. At night the air temperatures sink drastically, reaching a minimum of -70 degrees just before dawn.
NASA's Mars Science Laboratory touched down in Gale Crater on 5th August 2012 close to the equator of Mars at a latitude of 4.5 degrees south. The southern hemisphere of Mars is approaching springtime, leading to speculation about possible temperatures for at the height of Martian summer.
"That we are seeing temperatures this warm already during the day is a surprise and very interesting," says Dr Felipe G?mez of the Centro de Astrobiolog?a in Madrid. "It's very early days and we are only now being able to test our models against REMS observations. If this warm trend carries on into summer, we might even be able to foresee temperatures in the 20s -- and that would be really exciting from a habitability point of view. In the daytimes, we could see temperatures high enough for liquid water on a regular basis. But it's too soon to tell whether that will happen or whether these warm temperatures are just a blip."
REMS pressure sensors have also been recording slightly higher pressures than expected. In winter, Mars becomes cold enough for carbon dioxide at the poles to freeze, forming seasonal ice caps. Since carbon dioxide makes up most of the atmosphere, this process causes the overall atmospheric pressure to vary through the year. Models and data from previous mission predicted that Curiosity would land around the minimum mean pressure for the year. So far, the pressure measurements from REMS do indeed appear to be rising slowly. The pressure has risen from a daily average of around 730 pascals during the first three weeks after landing to around 750 pascals -- a tiny fraction of the average pressure at sea level on Earth.
"The pressure data show a very significant daily variation of pressure, following a fairly consistent cycle from Sol-to-Sol. The minimum is near 685 pascals and the maximum near 780 pascals. The majority of the variation is due to large scale waves in the atmosphere called tides. These tides are different from tides in the Earth's ocean because they are forced by heating due to the sun rather than the gravitational pull of the Moon. The tides are sensitive to the distribution of cloud and dust in the atmosphere, and also the large scale pattern of winds -- rather like the jet streams on Earth," says Javier G?mez-Elvira, the Principal Investigator of the REMS Instrument.

The only upgrades available for our puny human hands are gaming controller calluses, but if you're sporting an i-LIMB digits hand prosthesis, you can now grab a set of improved fingers. Touch Bionics' "smaller, lighter and more anatomically accurate" appendages are now available worldwide, as well as a new wrist-band unit which houses all the necessary computing power and juice for their function. Best of all, these developments allow more people to adopt the tech than the previous generation, including those with more petite hands or finger amputations closer to the knuckle. We don't know how much it'll cost for a fresh set, but we'll let health agencies and insurance companies deal with that part. With these upgrades and RSL Steeper's latest offering, it won't be long before our flesh-based variants are meager in comparison.

Developments in CGI and animatronics might be getting alarmingly realistic, but the audio that goes with it often still relies on manual recordings. A pair of associate professors and a graduate student from Cornell University, however, have developed a method for synthesizing the sound of moving fabrics -- such as rustling clothes -- for use in animations, and thus, potentially film. The process, presented at SIGGRAPH, but reported to the public today, involves looking into two components of the natural sound of fabric, cloth moving on cloth, and crumpling. After creating a model for the energy and pattern of these two aspects, an approximation of the sound can be created, which acts as a kind of "road map" for the final audio.
The end result is created by breaking the map down into much smaller fragments, which are then matched against a database of similar sections of real field-recorded audio. They even included binaural recordings to give a first-person perspective for headphone wearers. The process is still overseen by a human sound engineer, who selects the appropriate type of fabric and oversees the way that sounds are matched, meaning it's not quite ready for prime time. Understandable really, as this is still a proof of concept, with real-time operations and other improvements penciled in for future iterations. What does a virtual sheet being pulled over an imaginary sofa sound like? Head past the break to hear it in action, along with a presentation of the process.

And Chelsea will not pay a penny of it.
JT was ?disappointed? after the FA yesterday found him guilty of racially abusing the QPR defender.
He copped a four-game ban and an FA record ?220,000 fine.
But that is only a fraction of the sum Chelsea?s captain spent fighting his case.
Terry, 31, has run up legal fees estimated at ?750,000 battling his criminal and FA charges.
He hopes to recoup around ?400,000 from the court case, where he was found not guilty.
But the ex-England skipper is now liable to pay the costs of the FA hearing, too, said to be at least ?200,000.
That brings his total bill to a whopping ?770,000.
But if Terry decides to continue his fight and appeal against the FA?s punishment, his legal bill will rise even further.
A statement issued on his behalf said: ?Mr Terry is disappointed that the FA commission has reached a different conclusion to the clear not guilty verdict of a court of law.
?He has asked for the detailed written reasons of the decision and will consider them carefully before deciding whether to lodge an appeal.?
Terry has 14 days from receiving the FA commission?s written report to decide what to do next.
His fine and ban will be suspended until any appeal is heard, the 14 days expire or Terry announces he will not appeal.
But if the Blues defender does appeal and loses, the FA?s punishment could be increased.
Terry announced on Sunday he was quitting international football, claiming the FA had made his position in the England team untenable by continuing to persue the charge against him.
Westminster Magistrates cleared him in July of racially abusing Ferdinand, 27, after Chelsea?s Premier League clash at QPR last October.
Terry admitted in court using obscene words towards Ferdinand ? but not as a racist insult.
A club statement last night said: ?Chelsea Football Club notes and respects today?s decision.
?We also recognise that John has the right to appeal that decision.
?It is therefore inappropriate for us to comment further on the matter at this time.?

The SCOAP3 consortium (Sponsoring Consortium for Open Access Publishing in Particle Physics), which aims to convert journals in high energy physics to open access, has chosen two Springer journals to participate in the initiative. They are the Journal of High Energy Physics, published for the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA - Trieste, Italy), and the European Physical Journal C, published with Societ Italiana di Fisica. The selection is the result of an open and transparent tender process run by CERN for the benefit of SCOAP3, in which journal quality, price and publishing services were taken into account.
"Springer has shown interest in SCOAP3 from the very beginning and is committed to the project as an important and pioneering initiative," said Christian Caron, Executive Editor Physics at Springer. "In preparation for SCOAP3, not only have we been providing open access to all experimental papers and letters in the European Physical Journal C since 2007, we have also significantly increased the proportion of open access content in the Journal of High Energy Physics since taking it over in 2010. We are now looking forward to the next steps."
"These journals published by Springer, together with SISSA and the Societ Italiana di Fisica, have a long tradition in both open access and service to the physics community, and SCOAP3 is pleased that they will be part of this initiative. We look forward to working with Springer and its partners," said Salvatore Mele, SCOAP3 Project Manager at CERN.

After Strikeforce canceled Saturday's events, fighters worried about their finances because they didn't have the fight pay day. The good news is that they still will receive some compensation from Zuffa, the parent company of the UFC and Strikeforce.
MMA Junkie confirmed that the fighters left without a bout will get their "show money," or the amount they would get for fighting regardless of the bout's outcome. As far as the sponsors who also add to their fight night payout, it's up to each individual sponsor on how they want to proceed.
[Kevin Iole: It's time for Showtime, Strikeforce to cut losses, move on]
Since finding out they didn't have a fight, a few fighters took advantage of not having to cut weight.
Aahh,I confess,2 1/2 ice cream pints,entire box of 12 donuts,2 footlong dark chocolate hershey bars w Almond milk.gotta go sweat! #sosick
? Jorge Gurgel (@JorgeGurgel) September 25, 2012
Gian Villante had to cut down from 240 to 205. He was in the 220 range when the fight was canceled. He headed to Taco Bell when he heard the news.
"If I'm going to be honest, the first thing I think is, alright, I'll just go to Taco Bell, but I don't want to go crazy," Villante said to MMA Fighting. "So I went with a cheesy gordita crunch with chicken, and they have this new thing, a Doritos taco shell, that just looked amazing. That was calling my name, I went for that one. I had about three of those. I went home and there was this veal parm hero that was in the fridge for about a week now that my brother left in the refrigerator. It's been looking at me for a week and it's just torture, so, I'm like you know what, I'm eating this thing. I ate half a veal parm hero that was a week old and didn't even taste good, and then I had about a half a gallon of ice cream, chocolate chip cookie dough."
That's downright astounding. Thank goodness he is being paid at least his show money, as he might need to stock up on some healthy food to make up for that binge.

Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez will part ways September 29, when the singer embarks on his?long-awaited Believe tour. The long distance could hurt their relationship, but our couples expert reveals how the twosome can keep their love alive.
Relationship expert Dr. Phil Dembo tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively, ?As Justin Bieber leaves on his world tour, he and Selena must be conscious of the wear and tear long distance over long periods of time have on their relationship. These two are accustomed to being apart, but have been able to rendezvous from time to time to keep the spark alive. This may be a bit more difficult given how far and how long he will be traveling.?
Dr. Denbo has suggestions for the cute twosome on how they can remain close, saying, ?The two need to create and commit to rituals. They need to video chat the same time each day of possible, have virtual dates and spend time alone virtually when possible. If they rendezvous, they need to make the best of the time together. And most of all, stay committed to one another.?
He also explains that the distance can be dangerous to a relationship, warning Justin and Selena to pay attention to another famous couple?s recent misfortune! ?The loneliness can lead to the arms of someone else, destroying the trust and commitment they have that protects their love. Justin and Selena, take a lesson from Kristen [Stewart] and Rob [Pattinson,]? Dr. Denbo says.
Do you think Justin and Selena?s relationship will survive the long distance, HollywoodLifers?

More Evidence Of How Broken Our Legal System Is: $7.2 Million For ?Popcorn Lung?
When juries are willing to demand that companies hand out millions of dollars on cases where there is absolutely, unconditionally zero proof that they did anything wrong, do we have a justice system or a lottery?
A verdict has been reached in the ongoing case of Colorado man Wayne Watson, who sued the manufacturer and retailers of microwave buttered popcorn that caused him to develop ?popcorn lung? after eating two bags daily for 10 years.
Jurors awarded Watson $7 million in damages; the verdict came after a day and half of deliberations in Denver Federal Court, reports CBS Denver. Watson, 59, was diagnosed with respiratory problems in 2007 after years of inhaling the smell of artificial butter.
?Gilster-Mary Lee said in a statement after the verdict, ?We are certainly very disappointed by the decision of the jury in this case in light of the very clear evidence which was presented, including the millions of consumers who have safely used and enjoyed microwave popcorn since it was introduced. We are currently evaluating our next steps in this matter and will assert all rights available to us under the law.?
The disease in question here is called Bronchiolitis obliterans. It is rare and there have been a few cases caused by workers inhaling diacetyl in a popcorn plant. However, that shouldn?t be enough to award someone 7.2 million dollars.
For one thing, the workers in a popcorn plant would have been exposed to vast amounts of diacetyl compared to someone who was just eating popcorn twice a day ? if that?s even true. It?s entirely possible that Wayne Watson just made that up to try to get paid after he was diagnosed with Bronchiolitis obliterans. Sure, the condition may be rare, but it?s not UNIQUE to people who?ve been around diacetyl. Moreover, it?s one thing if you have multiple people in a plant who get sick with a rare disease. That kind of cluster clues you in that something is definitely going on. On the other hand, there have been tens of millions of other people who?ve eaten microwave popcorn over the same timeframe as Watson without developing Bronchiolitis obliterans.
I?m genuinely sorry that Wayne Watson is sick, but giving him $7.2 million that belongs to somebody else because he had a bad break isn?t the way our justice system should work. When justice becomes about emotion, not the law, it?s not justice any more.

In addition to unveiling all those laptops, HP just announced a boatload of peripherals. Of the bunch, the most compelling might be the NFC-enabled Touch to Pair Mouse, which, as the name suggests, can be paired with another device simply through tapping. (Good thing lots of computers currently have NFC, right?) If, by chance, you don't have NFC on your laptop -- and you probably don't -- the mouse will function just fine as a regular old Bluetooth device. Look for it in November for $39. Elsewhere on the wireless mouse front, HP announced the X6000 (pictured), which has four-way tilt scrolling and can be used on most surfaces, including glass. That arrives this month for $59. Finally, if your tastes are a bit simpler, there's also the Wireless Mouse X4500 and X5500, which will be available this month for $29 and $39, respectively.
Beyond mice, HP also trotted out the $29 Wireless Classic Desktop keyboard, along with the $49 Wireless Elite v2. For audio lovers, there's the HP Portable Bluetooth Speaker, which will go on sale next month for a cool $79. Eighty bucks (or thereabouts) will also get you a 90W universal power adapter that claims to be compatible with most notebooks. It also has a built-in USB port, allowing you to charge a mobile device at the same time. Rounding out the list is the Webcam HD 4310, an $89 shooter capable of 1080p video, autofocus, autoexposure and three-way video calling. All that and more digestible form in the PR after the break.
