Saturn's rings create a brilliant halo around the turbulent giant planet.

Here, the Cassini spacecraft looks into Saturn's clouds using a spectral

filter sensitive to absorption by methane. Light that reaches down to

depths where methane is prevalent gets absorbed. Regions of the planet

devoid of the clouds and hazes that can reflect this light back to the

camera appear relatively dark. Thus, the bright areas in these images

represent hazes and clouds high in the atmosphere.

  

Because the range of wavelengths for this filter is narrow, and because

most of this light is absorbed by Saturn, the planet's disk is inherently

faint and the exposures required are rather long. The rings do not

strongly absorb at these wavelengths, and so they reflect more light and

are overexposed compared to the atmosphere.

  

This view looks toward the sunlit side of the rings from about 6 degrees

below the ringplane. Janus (181 kilometers, or 113 miles across) is seen

above the rings at right.

  

The image was taken with the Cassini spacecraft wide-angle camera on Sept.

25, 2007 using a spectral filter sensitive to wavelengths of infrared

light centered at 890 nanometers. The view was obtained at a distance of

approximately 2.3 million kilometers (1.4 million miles) from Saturn and

at a Sun-Saturn-spacecraft, or phase, angle of 67 degrees. Image scale is

132 kilometers (82 miles) per pixel.

  

The Cassini-Huygens mission is a cooperative project of NASA, the European

Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory,

a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, manages

the mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Washington, D.C. The

Cassini orbiter and its two onboard cameras were designed, developed and

assembled at JPL. The imaging operations center is based at the Space

Science Institute in Boulder, Colo.

This is a condom machine. It's on the high street in Johana, the town next to mine. All very surreal.

The use of biometrics as a means to support fair elections is becoming increasingly common, particularly in emerging democracies where often no up-to-date administration of citizens is available. Ghana, for example, successfully deployed biometric voter registration and verification in their 2012 general elections involving more than 14 million voters.

 

To verify the identity of eligible voters on Election Day, GenKey delivered 33,500 handheld Biometric Verification Devices to the polling places, where they were operated by 26,002 trained officers.

 

To secure its software code against tampering in the field, GenKey integrated Wibu-Systems CodeMeter protection platform.

In hiding after being poked at.

Regbis - yra visko: aistros, jėgos, greičio, emocijų ir šalto išskaičiavimo. Geležinių riterių sportas. Tikras vyriškas žaidimas. Beje, esu vienas iš pritariančių nuomonei, kad sportas yra, kenksminga besmegenių avių paguoda. Pats žaidžiu krepšinį, nepraleidžiu progos paimti dviratį, paplaukioti, bet per TV ir rungtynėse būnu ypač retai, gal kartą per 1-2 metus, kai kas nors pakviečia. Beje, šiandien buvau savo pirmose gyvose regbio rungtynėse. Tai netrugdo juo žavėtis gėrėtis apskritai, daug nesiseilėjant.

 

Vingio parke buvo gražu. Šiandien žaidė Vilniaus "Geležinis vilkas" - Jurbarko miesto regbio klubas "Lūšis". Rezultatas - 7 - 74 (jei neklystu, nes su rezo skelbimu buvo rimtos problemos) laimėjo žalieji - "Lūšis".

A U.S. Army ODA pulls security as his teammate secures a hostile's information during Operation Serpent Catfish as part of Emerald Warrior 2013, John C. Stennis Space Center, Miss., May 01. During the operation, the ODA infiltrated an hostile camp, eliminating the enemy threat and collected evidence as part of sensitive site exploitation. The primary purpose of Emerald Warrior is to exercise special operations components in urban and irregular warfare settings to support combatant commanders. Emerald Warrior leverages lessons from Operation Iraqi Freedom,Operation Enduring Freedom and other historical lessons to provide better trained and ready forces to combatant commanders.

The sensitive briar is named for the reaction of its leaves when touched - they close up into tight bundles.
