Nature Publishing Group : science journals, jobs, and information March 2013 (SA Jewellery News,January 2013, pp. 12-13) For a brief moment during the mid 1970’s, a number of local goldsmiths came together to create a better structured environment in which they could work. They formed the Goldsmiths Guild of S.A. It was a time of hope and enthusiasm, but it did not last long. Even though all of the founder members enjoyed national recognition for their work, their technical and creative brilliance were not strong enough to withstand the forces that were working against them. Late in 1973, under Peter Cullman’s leadership, the Goldsmiths Guild of South Africa was born in Johannesburg. A three page constitution was adopted at the founding meeting of the Guild.

International Astronomical Union | IAU Conseil des académies canadiennes | CCA |Avis, évaluations et publications scientifiques indépendants nineplanets.org introduction The Nine Planets is a collection of information about our Solar System intended for a general audience with little technical background. No special expertise or knowledge is needed; all technical and astronomical terms and proper names are defined in the glossary. The bulk of this material should be familiar to planetary scientists and astronomers but they may find a few interesting tidbits, too. This site consists of about 100 pages, one page for each major body in the Solar System. a large picture of its object and usually several smaller thumbnail images (all linked to their full-size originals) some scientific and historical facts about it, if the object has satellites then its page has a table of data on them and links to their pages, links to more images and information about the object elsewhere on the Web, and a list of open issues for which we as yet have no answers. To truly justify the title of "Multimedia Tour", I've also included: Frequently Asked Questions Home ...

Pas-de-Calais: Un train percute un homme qui disparaît mystérieusement Un accident sans victime. Mercredi, le conducteur d’un TER a affirmé avoir percuté une personne sur la ligne Boulogne-Calais. Mais selon France 3 Nord-Pas-de-Calais, aucun corps n’a été retrouvé. Mercredi, vers 14h, le conducteur d’un train régional a stoppé sa machine, persuadé d’avoir percuté un homme qui marchait sur la voie de chemin de fer. Au moment de l’accident, le train circulait à environ 100km/h. Le trafic ferroviaire a été interrompu sur la ligne et la police est venue sur place pour effectuer les constatations d’usage. Le cheminot, lui, est resté sur sa position : il a bel et bien percuté un homme. Reste à savoir si la victime a pu quitter les lieux par ses propres moyens avant l’arrivée de la police.
