The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

Hmmm....this was an OK show with excellent moments, but very slow-paced, when it shouldn't be. (And yes, the background is a pair of my pajamas, of course!)

The Canadian Army celebrates the 25th Anniversary of the Bold Eagle program, a tailored partnership program that helps Aboriginal youth from across western Canada.
The idea of the program was conceived in 1989 by representatives of the Prince Albert Tribal Council (now the Prince Albert Grand Council) and the Canadian Armed Forces with the idea to encourage Aboriginal youth to seek employment and discipline. Following discussions and negotiation with the Canadian Armed Forces, the first Canadian Army sponsored Bold Eagle program was conducted in 1990.
Bold Eagle is a partnership between the Department of National Defence and First Nations organizations from across Western Canada, such as the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations (FSIN) and the Aboriginal Veterans Society of Alberta, and is sponsored and managed by the Canadian Army.

`sasrai’ appeal turned into demand of seven billion `Consume With Care’
To
Mr. Achim Steiner, Executive Director
Attention: Mr. Naysan Sahba
Acting Director of the Division of Communications Public Information and Spokesperson
Office of the Executive Director
United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)
Nairobi, Kenya
Subject: Appeal to have a resolution to hang sasrai banner for one week June 03 to 07 at each UN related office gate across the globe in honor of World Environment Day.
Dear Sir
Greetings from sasrai-Movement
We are in 100% agreement with UNEP belief influencing consumption and production patterns at the local level would have a significant impact at the global level, because resource efficiency facilitates the transition towards a green economy and global sustainable development.
Since 2004 our appeal is we must get each one caring to each particle of resource. sasrai-Movement aimed at every person would have a mindset `save a bit in every step’. Street beggar to state driver will save resource no matter how small it is. Last 11 years we have tried our level best to disseminate the message to people from all works of life.We are thankful to the voter and UNEP for the slogan ‘Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care’. We consider this is institutionalization of our appeal.
To attain the resilient and resource efficient cities; sustainable transport and mobility; and integrated solid waste management, globe in need of resource efficient individual, institution, organization finally the government. To materialize the utmost need, we are in needing voice from each corner of globe. Since 2011 we approached to the honorable minister for environment and forest & minister for education of Bangladesh to have an initiative to keep a sasrai banner in each educational institution in honor of world environment day. Based on our appeal honorable Divisional Commissioner of Chittagong passed a request to all Deputy Commissioner of his division to do the same.
Bringing behavioral and attitudinal change is the toughest job and we have no chance to spare a single second. Nature demands absolute care that includes concerted, cooperative and collaborative effort. UNEP could have an initiative to get each UN office and official - resource efficient first. And keeping a sasrai banner at each office gate across the globe for one week June 03 to 07 in honor of World Environment Day could be the first step.
Scientists estimate that humans will consume twice as many resources as the planet can support by 2050. At the rate things are going, the Earth in the coming decades could cease to be a “safe operating space” for human beings. The Planet is in Need of Each Creature Equality, Gender Equality and `sasrai’ Living (Stop Consumption Slavery or Stop Advertisement Administered Lifestyle). Albert Einstein opine "Those who have the privilege to know have the duty to act."

NB.
a. Since 2004 we worked without any financial assistance from any donor. We volunteered aimed at better earth for each creature. We believe voluntarism needed to be Prudent, Provident, Proficient and Relentless, Fearless, Greedless. We must have zeal to offer a habitable earth to our next generation. We owe to our next generation to offer the earth as we received and we vow to be unswerving, unshakeable.
b. Humanity in need of Climate Responsible Community, Climate Compatible Development. sasrai ONLY THE PATH TO SAVE MOTHER PLANET EARTH, NATURE. sasrai only the path to Eliminate Racial Discrimination - End violence against WOMEN and CHILDREN. sasrai only the path to end POVERTY, VULNERABILITY, HUNGER, DISASTER, CLIMATE Threat. Each second, minute, hour day needed to be spent considering earth, environment and humanity. We must get each child caring to each particle of food and resource. Wish the Peace, Justice, Dignity and Rights for each - save a bit, reserve, preserve, rejuvenate and conserve resources.
c. Scientist Opine
Earth is halfway to being inhospitable to life
We have already crossed four “planetary boundaries.” They are the extinction rate; deforestation; the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere; and the flow of nitrogen and phosphorous (used on land as fertilizer) into the ocean. Scientist shown human activities — economic growth, technology, consumption — are destabilizing the global environment,”
"Human security will be progressively threatened as the climate changes," the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCCC) warned in its overview report. The Pentagon agrees. "Rising global temperatures, changing precipitation patterns, climbing sea levels, and more extreme weather events will intensify the challenges of global instability, hunger, poverty and conflict,"
Scientists estimate that humans will consume twice as many resources as the planet can support by 2050. At the rate things are going, the Earth in the coming decades could cease to be a “safe operating space” for human beings.

A video of the working proof of concept can be found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQTB4zfDmUQ
The colored pieces under the train are picked up by the color sensor in the middle of the train and can be used to give commands to the train: start, stop, increase/decrease speed, etc.
The Sokol SK-1 suit was worn by Yuri Gagarin during the first flight to orbit the Earth, on April 12, 1961. It was fully pressurized and had connectors for a life support system. (I'm pretty sure this is a Sokol SK-1 suit, not the actual suit Gagarin wore!)
I was bemused by the lace-up boots. I can only assume they have airtight lining.
This exhibit at the Henry Ford Museum is titled "Apollo: When We Went to the Moon", but it includes the historical background of the space program (starting with the Cold War) and also contains items from the Soviet space program.
