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.

`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.

Africa Will Starve and Asia Will Drown in 30 Years Due to Climate Change
People in Asia and the Pacific are four times more likely to be affected by natural disaster than in Africa and 25 times more than in Europe or North America?
Global warming could cause an 18 percent drop in world food production by 2050
15 Cities Threatened by Climate Change
The World Bank alarm bells are just the latest to sound about the havoc climate change and man-made global warming will cause to the planet.
The World Health Organization predicts that climate change will cause 250,000 additional deaths per year around the globe between 2030 and 2050, primarily from malaria, diarrhea, heat exposure and malnutrition.

Lego Digital Designer picture of the Lego trains controlled by an Mindstorms EV3. There will be two trains, one in dark red and one in dark blue.
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.

Cancún, Q. Roo, Abril 7, 2011.- Nuestro líder nacional, Dip. Fed. Isaías González Cuevas, en calidad de Presidente de la Comisión Especial de Análisis de Políticas de Creación de Nuevos Empleos de la LXI Legislatura, encabezó la segunda Expo-Feria “Échale la Mano a México”, destinada a fortalecer a la industria mexicana.
Debido a los resultados obtenidos en la primera edición que se llevó a cabo en el WTC de la Ciudad de México, se implementó con el apoyo del Fondo PyME de la Secretaría de Economía, la realización de nuevos programas en tres entidades del país con una intensa actividad en el ramo turístico y gastronómico, como es Cancún.
El recinto ferial "cancunmesse" fue la sede de este importante evento, donde participaron 150 expositores que ofrecieron sus productos ante más de 2,000 personas que acudieron para echarle la mano a México.
El corte del listón inaugural estuvo a cargo de los diputados federales Isaías González Cuevas y Pedro Peralta Rivas; el Secretario de Desarrollo en Quintana Roo, Javier Díaz Carvajal; el Delegado Federal de la SE en el Estado, José Julio Aranda Manzanero y el Presidente de CANIRAC en Q. Roo, Luis Fernando Vargas Aguilar.
De igual forma asistieron el presidente municipal en Benito Juárez, Jaime Hernández Zaragoza, los integrantes del Comité Ejecutivo Nacional de la CROC, cámaras empresariales y académicos que recorrieron los diferentes stands ubicados en los 25,000 metros cuadrados con los que cuenta cancunmesse.
Durante el transcurso se indicó que reactivar el mercado nacional, fortalecer a la industria mexicana, promover el desarrollo regional y diversificar la economía del país, son los objetivos generales de esta expo-feria en la que se enlazan los proveedores nacionales de insumos y servicios, con los consumidores de bienes y servicios finales.
La diputada federal Susana Hurtado clausuró los trabajos realizados los días 7 y 8, señalando que Guadalajara y Monterrey son las próximas sedes.
Cabe destacar que se contó con la participación del prestigiado empresario hotelero, Sigfrido Paz Paredes; el rector de la Universidad de Sur, Guillermo Capriste y el secretario de promoción al deporte del C.E.N. de la CROC, Eduardo Vázquez Martínez.
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.
