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.

I have to admit that I stole that line from Cyko9, it's genius. Also, I feel like I've unintentionally started a theme week of translucent figures--so I'm gonna just roll with it! Transparent figures 'till Christmas, yeah!

America’s nuclear energy industry is in decline. Low natural gas prices, financing hurdles, failure to find a permanent repository for high-level nuclear waste, reactions to the Fukushima accident in Japan, and other factors are hastening the day when existing U.S. reactors become uneconomic, while making it increasingly difficult to build new ones. Two generations after the United States took this wholly new and highly sophisticated technology from laboratory experiment to successful commercialization, our nation is in danger of losing an industry of strategic importance and unique promise for addressing the environmental and energy security demands of the future.
Since March 2011, the Nuclear Energy Program at CSIS has engaged a high-level commission and asked dozens of experts whether or not nuclear energy should be a national priority and whether or not U.S. leadership matters. The program has focused on identifying the challenges facing nuclear energy and recommendations for future action. The result is the report “Restoring U.S. Leadership in Nuclear Energy: A National Security Imperative”, which will be used as a basis for conversations with policymakers, industry representatives, and outside experts.

When I was perhaps four or five years younger than the kids shown here, my favorite television program was "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." For my viewers who either were not yet born in the mid-1960s or were too young to remember it, the popular but campy program ran for about four seasons and centered around a supersecret spy organization, whose nemesis was a diabolical international conspiracy known as THRUSH. The main characters were Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin, played respectively by Robert Vaughn and David McCallum. This was at the height of the Cold War, and the superpowers were duly represented in the organization by Messrs. Solo and Kuryakin, the former being American and the latter Russian. Even at age 13, however, I always wondered how a Russian superspy managed to acquire a distinctly Scottish accent, but that question was never answered during the show's run, and besides, I never really cared what kind of accent Mr. Kuryakin had. If McCallum's character had been, say, a blond Mexican habitually speaking with a pronounced Japanese accent, that would have been even more implausible, but even with that, "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." would still have been the #1 staple in my Friday-evening TV lineup.
Solo was my favorite character, partly because I envied his charm, efficiency, and savoir faire, and partly because he always attracted the pretty girls and got to kiss one about once every two minutes or so. Naturally, I envied him for that, too. I wanted desperately to be like Mr. Solo, but never quite managed to duplicate his accomplishments, which seemed to come so naturally to him but definitely were not my own forte. To be quite honest about it, I have always been rather awkward socially, and in fact never kissed a girl until I was in college.
I thought of Mr. Solo as I was postprocessing this photograph, taken near the conclusion of Basha High School's performance of "The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940." Having attended the dress rehearsal three nights earlier, I knew this scene was coming and was ready for it, which was fortunate because it was actually very brief and not nearly as passionate as it appears to be. The play's hero, Eddie McCuen, is a wannabe comic who manages to save the day and get the girl, Nikki Crandall, who has been working covertly as a naval intelligence agent. The kids did a great job with the production, although with regard to this particular scene, I can't honestly say that I believe it would have done Mr. Solo proud. That was certainly no fault of the actors, but this was, after all, a high-school production, and the sensibilities of the school administration and other powers-that-be had to be taken into account in arranging the scene. But man, I wish I could have done this in one (or both) of the two stage productions in which I have participated! (It occurs to me as I compose these lines that Mr. Solo may have launched his own career as a super-smoocher during a high-school theatrical performance such as this one. That idea has even more plausibility because Solo was a fictional character, which presumably means we are at liberty to create our own details about his early life. But regardless of whether Napoleon Solo did any kissing as part of his high school thespian career, Nick, for his part, should feel greatly encouraged. He is an exceptionally talented actor, and down the road, I think we will be hearing more about him.)
I don't regard this as one of my better photos from this event, but if I were a betting man, I'd postulate that it will be well received by the participants in the play, as well as their classmates who witnessed the scene and expressed their approval with whoops, cheers, and catcalls.

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.

U.S. Marine Corps Veteran Harry Oldland gets a close look at Milking Shorthorn steers Chip and Dale at Service to Stewardship a two-day workshop in Remington, Va., on Saturday, May 21, 2016. The Livestock Conservancy, Virginia Cooperative Extension, and Lakota Ranch, are holding this workshop to help educate military service veterans about rare breed animal and poultry options for farming enterprises.
Some of the topics include, getting started, networking, marketing, poultry processing, breeding, husbandry, scything, rotational grazing and pasture management, tractor selections, milking and oxen, and electric fence building.
In 2014, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced the availability of more than $9 million in outreach and technical assistance for minority farmers and ranchers and military veterans that are new to farming and ranching. The funding, provided through the Outreach and Assistance for Socially Disadvantaged Farmers and Ranchers and Veteran Farmers and Ranchers Program, also known as the 2501 Program, will enable community-based organizations and other partners to work directly with these groups to successfully acquire, own and operate farms and ranches and equitably participate in all USDA programs. The 2014 Farm Bill reauthorized the program and expanded targeted communities.
