Manual for this unit is at https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0019/5952/files/Manual-RAD...

I assume 'dual-beam' is the same as dual-channel? Does the calibration technique mentioned in the manual indicate dual channel operation?

May I ask what apps are both of you using?
Lucky for them the satellite (Nahid-1) was not loaded at the time of the incident (which likely happened during fueling), and is in a lab ready for another launch.
[2] and [3] refer to June 15; [4] refers to June 16. Is your text correct? What can be learned from the numbers on the 500 kV lines?

What features would you like to see in an elderly care home sensing system?

We are doing a year long student team project on developing a home monitoring system for the elderly, and looking for input on what actual caregivers (in our case, children of elderly parents) would like to see in such a system.We know a few things: people do not like to hang sensors/monitors from their necks (identifies them as incapable), may have trouble charging any wearables on their hands...

Of course I know that. The question is whether there are applications for which an external, physically separated processor, even if weak, would be useful.
Talking about a possible product idea I have in mind.
When an "analyst" comes to you and starts saying things like "if you know what to do ..." - this is the mark of a snake oil salesman. Next thing he will do is to ask you for money to learn about his "strategy". This guy is an idiot who wants to make a name for himself so he makes these kinds of statements to get attention. At this point the last thing Goldman Sachs wants is a total collapse of markets and economy.

Doesn't work for me (IE8 on Win 7). I know there is a general allergy towards IE but that's 65% of your market, so coding to include support for it is not exaclty a cardinal sin.

1. Aghazadeh resigned as he had supported Mousavi in the presidential elections and had had enough of Ahamdinejad. He was replaced by the much better qualified, and very well respected Ali Akbar Salehi (MIT PhD): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ali_Akbar_Salehi

2. Natanz is under full IAEA supervision (cameras, sampling devices, etc) and subject to frequent IAEA visits. If there was any type of an accident or radiation release, you would have heard it by now, or you will see it in the next IAEA report on Iran's nuclear activities.
