Filtering message posts in a social network

A social media mechanism processes messages for content that may require filtering of recipients of the message, and informs a user who drafted the message when the message might need to be filtered so it is not sent to all potential recipients of the message. The user may then select to send the message to all potential recipients, or to filter the recipients so the message is sent to less than all of the potential recipients. User profiles are created and maintained, and may include information that helps to determine when filtering of messages is desirable. Feedback buttons are also provided to provide feedback when a user does not like a message.
ICRP Publication 132: Radiological Protection from Cosmic Radiation in Aviation

In this publication, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) provides updated guidance on radiological protection from cosmic radiation in aviation, taking into account the current ICRP system of radiological protection, the latest available data on exposures in aviation, and experience gained worldwide in the management of exposures in aviation. The publication describes the origins of cosmic radiation, how it exposes passengers and aircraft crew, the basic radiological protection principles that apply to this existing exposure situation, and the available protective actions. For implementation of the optimisation principle, the Commission recommends a graded approach proportionate to the level of exposure that may be received by individuals. The objective is to keep the exposure of the most exposed individuals to a reasonable level. The Commission also recommends that information be disseminated to raise awareness about cosmic radiation, and to support informed decisions among concerned stakeholders.
Future of Our Past

Project in brief_x000D_
_x000D_
The extraordinary cultural heritage in the Mediterranean Basin with its fascinating cities rich in history, art, culture and traditions, offers an interesting background for the growth of tourism. Despite the leading role played by this sector, the model of governance developed in the area to date has mostly been focused on coastal resources while important historical centres situated in the inner territories still lack valorisation. Strengthening and qualifying the potential of the involved areas and increasing their exploitation is the challenge that F.O.P project aims to address by means of a model focused on innovative tourism plans for cultural and environmental heritage. Some selected sites in Italy (Lazio, Basilicata, Campania), Egypt (Alexandria), Spain (Córdoba), Malta (La Valletta), Palestine (Bethlehem), Tunisia (Monastir) and Lebanon (Beirut), will thus become part of a cross-border network of historical centers in order to mutually strengthen their visibility in the tourism sector. Through the enhancement of these centres, touristic diversification and deseasonalization, and the positioning on broader market segments, the concerned local economies will be boosted and further developed. In addition, a widespread hospitality* will also be implemented in Palestine and Egypt in order to stimulate tourism in specific locations with new itineraries including_x000D_

Evidence for a role of corrective eye movements during gaze fixation in saccade planning

In a three-dimensional (3D) world most saccades are made towards visual targets that are located at different distances. We previously demonstrated that gaze shifts within 3D space consist of two stages: a target saccade followed by a corrective saccade during gaze fixation that directs the eyes to the physical target location. We proposed that, by accurately positioning the eyes on the visual object, the visual system maintains an orderly representation of the visual world. In this study we used a double saccade experiment to assess the function of corrective saccades in humans. We found that, when a corrective eye movement occurred during fixation on the first target point, the direction of the second saccade towards the next target point was accurate. When a corrective saccade was absent, a directional error of the second target saccade was observed. This finding, which cannot be explained by current models of eye movement control, supports the idea of a two-step model in saccade programming. We suggest that the motor system sends a corollary discharge when programming a corrective saccade for maintaining an orderly representation of the visual world. In conclusion, our results indicate that corrective saccades have a role in programming target saccades within 3D space.
Personalized nutrition for healthy living

Proper nutrition is essential for good health, well-being and the prevention, mitigation or treatment of a number of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Food is not only a source of calories, but also a complex mixture of dietary chemicals, some of which are directly related to cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, allergies and some types of cancer. Foods, diet and nutritional status, including overweight and obesity, are also associated with elevated blood pressure and blood cholesterol or even resistance to the action of insulin. These conditions are not only risk factors for non-communicable diseases, but major causes of illness themselves.
However, today's diet is characterized by irregular and poorly balanced meals. Unhealthy eating habits in our daily life are not only risk factors for non-communicable diseases, but also major causes of stress and tiredness, i.e., lack of energy. Knowledge about our dietary habits based on the analysis of diverse types of information, including individual parameters, can contribute greatly towards answering key questions to respond to societal challenges regarding food and health.
Motivated by the aforementioned, the PROTEIN project aims to develop an end-to-end ecosystem that will engage people to a healthy, pleasurable, nutritional and sustainable diet by offering a daily program adapted to their needs and driven by their personal preferences, physical and physiological characteristics as well as their health status. Specifically, the main objective of PROTEIN is to create an ICT-based system for providing personalized nutrition based on the collection and analysis of large volumes of data related to users' dietary behavioural patterns, physical activity and individual parameters. PROTEIN proposes a radically novel approach to advice and support consumers in everyday living, while ensuring users’ privacy protection i.e., data will be anonymized and securely stored in the Cloud for processing.
Surface Morphology of Basalt Columns at Svartifoss, VatnajökulsÞjóðgarður, Southern Iceland

A spectacular example of columnar-jointed basalt occurs at Svartifoss in the Vatnajökull National Park of southern Iceland. The columns are notable for a variety of features on the vertical joint surfaces and the horizontal parting surfaces. The jointed surfaces of the columns display horizontal striations at a spacing of centimeters to decimeters. The individual striations exhibit crescentic hackles with a plumose pattern, the orientation of which varies between adjacent striations. Also present are gently dipping, millimeter-scale laminations not previously described. Horizontal parting surfaces of the columns display a circular ring that inscribes most of the diameter column. The ring features alternately positive or negative relief against the perimeter of the column and exhibits a radiating pattern of hackles originating at the center of the ring. Petrographic examination reveals that the basalt contains an interlocking network of plagioclase laths preferentially aligned perpendicular to the column axes. The circular features have been described previously and attributed to late-stage melt migration driven by a load-induced pressure gradient. The striations were formed from stepwise, downward propagation of the polygonal fracture system, and the plumose structures were formed from tensile stresses during fracture propagation. The small-scale laminations may result from preferential grain alignment of plagioclase laths.
High doses of alcohol during pregnancy cause DNA damages in osteoblasts of newborns rats

Alcohol exerts teratogenic effects and its consumption during pregnancy can cause deficit of bone development. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the genotoxic effects of prenatal exposure to ethanol on newborn rat osteoblasts.Wistar rats were initially divided into two groups: Ethanol group which received Ethanol 20% V/V in liquid diet and solid diet ad libitum, and Control group, which received solid diet and water ad libitum. Each group received a specific diet for 8 weeks before breeding and throughout three weeks of gestation and the treatment was finished on the day the pups were killed. On the fifth day of life, the pups from each group were killed for removal of the calvaria and isolation of osteogenic cells by sequential enzymatic digestion. The cells were cultured for a maximum period of 14 days. The detection of genotoxic effects of alcohol was investigated by the comet and the micronucleus assay.Micronucleus and comet assay showed significant increases in DNA damage at 7 days in Ethanol group (p = 0.0302, p = 0.0446, respectively). However, at 14 days both assay showed no significant difference between the groups (p = 0.6194, p = 0.8326, respectively).Our results showed that prenatal exposure to ethanol induced DNA damage in osteoblasts, as shown by micronucleus formation and higher percentage of DNA in the comet tail. It can be concluded that prenatal exposure to ethanol damages osteoblast DNA in newborns exposed to high doses of ethanol during pregnancy, suggesting that prenatal ethanol consumption has a direct effect on fetal osteoblasts.
Bladder function of patients with Parkinson's disease

Bladder function of patients with Parkinson's disease alters significantly: the majority of patients have overactive bladder (urinary urgency/frequency) with little or no post-void residuals. This seems to be the result of an altered brain-bladder relationship, as in Parkinson's disease, the frontal-basal ganglia D1 dopaminergic circuit that normally suppresses the micturition reflex is altered. The pathophysiology of the bladder dysfunction in Parkinson's disease differs from that in multiple system atrophy; therefore, it might also aid in differential diagnosis. The effects of levodopa, the major drug to treat motor dysfunction, on the bladder in Parkinson's disease vary significantly; therefore, add-on therapy is often required. Anticholinergic drugs are the first-line treatment, with particular care for cognitive function in elderly patients. The second-line treatment includes serotonergics drug, desmopressin and others. Newer modalities include deep brain stimulation that improves the bladder in Parkinson's disease; and botulinum toxin is promising, particularly in difficult cases. These treatments might be beneficial in maximizing the patients' quality of life.
CHANTI

This paper introduces a text entry application for users with physical disabilities who cannot utilize a manual keyboard. The system allows the user to enter text hands-free, with the help of Non-verbal Vocal Input (e.g., humming or whistling). To keep the number of input sounds small, an ambiguous keyboard is used. As the user makes a sequence of sounds, each representing a subset of the alphabet, the program searches for matches in a dictionary. As a model for the system, the scanning-based application QANTI was redesigned and adapted to accept the alternative input signals. The usability of the software was investigated in an international longitudinal study done at locations in the Czech Republic, Germany, and the United States. Eight test users were recruited from the target community. The users differed in the level of speech impairment. Three users did not complete the study due to the severity of their impairment. By the end of the experiment, the users were able to enter text at rates between 10 and 15 characters per minute.
Organic Fluorine as a Hydrogen-Bond Acceptor: Recent Examples and Applications

For more than three decades, the ability of a fluorine atom involved in a C–F bond to act as a hydrogen-bond acceptor has been a controversial issue. Throughout the years, more and more evidence has been published to support this hypothesis and it is now difficult to doubt the existence of the hydrogen bond with organic fluorine. However, since this interaction has low binding energies, it is sometimes difficult to clearly demonstrate its presence or effect in a system. In the present review, only the most recent examples from the literature are presented and the different techniques used to prove the presence of these C–F···H–X hydrogen bonds are compared and discussed according to the accepted criteria for hydrogen bonding detailed by a recent IUPAC committee. Even with its weak interaction energy, hydrogen bonds to organic fluorine have the potential to affect properties of practical systems in different spheres of chemistry. All the recent examples of such effects are highlighted. 1 	Introduction 2 	Properties 3 	C(sp2)–F 3.1 	O–H as Donor 3.2 	N–H as Donor 3.3 	C(sp2)–H as Donor 3.4 	C(sp3)–H as Donor 4 	C(sp3)–F 4.1 	O–H as Donor 4.2 	N–H as Donor 4.3 	C(sp2)–H as Donor 4.4 	C(sp3)–H as Donor 5 	Conclusion

Digital fabrication and maker movement in education: making computer-supported artefacts from scratch

Digital technology has radically changed the way people work in industry, finance, services, media and commerce and has urged necessary corresponding changes in educational systems. However there is a lack of progress in the education arena. Hence, recent studies show that high percentages of college graduates can't find work, the dropout rate is high and new generations are moving back into their parents homes after school or college. Nevertheless, the digital trend indicates that today's grade-school children will end up at jobs that haven't been invented yet.

Nowadays, several studies assure that digital fabrication and making technologies, if coupled with proper learning methodologies such as Constructivism can provide learning experiences that promote young people’s creativity, critical thinking, teamwork, and problem solving skills, which are essential and necessary in the workplace of the 21st century. However, as early as 2008 a OECD report remarked that “technology is everywhere, except in schools”. In addition to this, most uses of technologies in education and training today do not support  21st-century learning skills. In many cases, new technologies are simply reinforcing old ways of training and learning in current school settings and very often they are introduced according to a narrow perception as being suitable only for talented youth or only for Science-, Maths- or Engineering-oriented majors. Current developments call for a move from this elitism to the recognition that fluency with making technologies represents knowledge and skills valuable for
every citizen.

The eCraft2Learn project will research, design, pilot and validate an ecosystem based on digital fabrication and making technologies for creating computer-supported artefacts. The project aims at reinforcing personalised learning and teaching in science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) education and to assist the development of 21st century skills that promote inclusion and employability for youth in the EU. The eCraft2Learn ecosystem will support both formal and informal learning by providing the appropriate digital fabrication, making technologies, and programming tools. It will also incorporate mechanisms for personalised and adaptive learning.

Investigation on Temperature Rise of a Micro-Thermal Sensor in Helium–Air Gas Mixtures Considering Near-Field Radiation

The thermal response of a micro-thermal sensor at the slider–disk interface filled with helium–air gas mixtures is investigated. The heat transfer due to both the heat conduction in gas films and the near-field radiation is included. The effects of the helium fraction on the sensor temperature are discussed. The results show that due to the evanescent photo tunneling at a small spacing, the near-field radiation generates a large heat flux, resulting in decreases in the sensor temperature. However, at a large spacing over 10 nm, the heat transfer is dominated by the heat conduction in gas films. An increasing helium fraction causes an increase in the heat conduction and a consequent decrease in the sensor temperature.
Cued-Click Point Graphical Password Using Circular Tolerance to Increase Password Space and Persuasive Features

Abstract Graphical password can be used as an alternative to text based (alphanumeric) password in which users click on images to set their passwords. Text based password uses username and password. So recalling of password is necessary which may be a difficult one. Images are generally easier to be remembered than text and in Graphical password; user can set images as their password. Therefore graphical password has been proposed by many researchers as an alternative to text based password Graphical passwords can be applied to workstation, web log-in applications, ATM machines, mobile devices etc. This paper presents implementation of Cued click point (CCP) graphical password which uses circular tolerance. Then it is found that CCP with circular tolerance is better as compared to CCP with rectangular tolerance.
WATER Development Resources Opportunity Policies for the water management in semi-arid areas

Project in brief _x000D_
_x000D_
Population growth, rapid urbanization and industrialization, the expansion of agriculture and tourism, as well as climate change are all factors which put water under increasing stress. The scarcity of this vital resource for human and social development has placed water at the top of the agenda of many Mediterranean countries. Most of the water problems are due to the mismanagement of water resources and to the incoherency among different policies impacting water conservation. In addition, the dialogue between water stakeholders, users and central governments shall be fostered in order to ensure more integrated approaches to developing and managing water resources. To address these challenges, the Water-DROP project has been designed on the assumption that the main issues to be tackled for efficient water management concern technical-methodological, capacity-building, and normative aspects. _x000D_

To develop an integrated water cycle management approach at the Mediterranean Sea Basin level for managing the related cross-sector issues through the enforcement of multi-stakeholder partnerships, in particular with public and private actors
Algorithms for robust linear regression by exploiting the connection to sparse signal recovery

In this paper, we develop algorithms for robust linear regression by leveraging the connection between the problems of robust regression and sparse signal recovery. We explicitly model the measurement noise as a combination of two terms; the first term accounts for regular measurement noise modeled as zero mean Gaussian noise, and the second term captures the impact of outliers. The fact that the latter outlier component could indeed be a sparse vector provides the opportunity to leverage sparse signal reconstruction methods to solve the problem of robust regression. Maximum a posteriori (MAP) based and empirical Bayesian inference based algorithms are developed for this purpose. Experimental studies on simulated and real data sets are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
