Jim Madigan post game • Nov. 4, 2011
The Northeastern men's hockey team earned its first point of the season on the road and blemished No. 7 Merrimack's perfect record with a 1-1 tie on Friday night at Lawler Arena.
Junior Justin Daniels netted his team-leading fifth goal 57 seconds into the third period to tie the game as the Huskies defense was anchored by astute play from third-year backstopper Chris Rawlings. Rawlings stopped 34 shots compared to Merrimack's Joe Cannata who turned aside 30 shots on the night.

Thermodynamic Potentials of Organic Solar Cells
In order for photovoltaic systems to ultimately provide a considerable fraction of the world’s energy needs they will need to meet a number of stringent performance metrics regarding their cost, efficiency, and robustness. In addition, they will need to be manufactured with very high throughput methods in order to realize the enormous production scales required. A s

Émission 1 : La cinétique chimique
Une occasion de vous initier à la cinétique, l'étude de la vitesse des réactions chimiques. Certaines, comme les combustions, sont très rapides, voire explosives; d'autres, comme la décomposition dans le milieu naturel des matières plastiques, sont extrêmement lentes. La cinétique des réactions chimiques se retrouve partout : des cellules vivantes à l'aérospatiale.

Émission 2 : L'alcalinité
Cet épisode vous permettra d’explorer l'alcalinité qui est la capacité d'une eau à résister à des agressions acides ou basiques, favorisant ainsi le maintien de la vie. L'alcalinité d'une solution dépend de sa concentration en substances basiques. Ces bases réagissent avec les acides. En fait, l'alcalinité représente la somme des molécules capables de se lier à un acide pour le neutrali

Émission 3 - Les acides
Certains acides peuvent être néfastes pour l'environnement, par exemple les pluies acides. Par contre, d'autres tel le vinaigre, sont utiles et agréables. Une occasion de comprendre les acides pour savoir comment ils influencent l'environnement et l'humain et de quelle manière nous pouvons en tirer le meilleur profit.

Émission 4 - L'eau potable
La moitié des Québécois boit l'eau provenant du fleuve St-Laurent. Il a fallu recourir à plusieurs traitements physico-chimiques pour la rendre potable. Les usines de production débarrassent l'eau qu'on puise de ses éléments indésirables comme les toxines et les micro-organismes. Apprenez-en davantage sur le sujet.

Émission 5 - Les grands enjeux
Les changements climatiques qui influencent la quantité d'eau douce disponible, la qualité de nos eaux naturelles qui diminue en raison de la pollution, le manque d'eau de qualité qui entraîne des maladies comme le choléra et la malaria, autant de grands enjeux abordés dans cette émission. Aussi, les concepts de pollueurs payeurs et d'utilisateurs payeurs.
Why study Rudolf Bultmann?
Rudolf Bultmann (1884-1976) was a German Lutheran theologian whose work highlighted the difficulties of treating early Christian texts as simple historical narratives, while at the same time highlighting their importance as documents of faith. Henri Gagey, from the Institut Catholique in Paris, is an expert on Bultmann’s theology and presents an introduction to it here.

BioquÃmica Estructural y Metabólica (2011)
La BioquÃmica es la ciencia que estudia los constituyentes quÃmicos de los seres vivos, sus funciones y transformaciones, es decir, estudia la vida desde la perspectiva de la quÃmica y las moléculas. Según se avanza en el conocimiento cientÃfico, se constata que gran parte de las enfermedades son consecuencia de alteraciones moleculares. Por eso, el objetivo de la asignatura es proporcionar al estudiante de Medicina una formación adecuada en los aspectos básicos de la BioquÃmica estruct
TopografÃa y Geodesia (2011)
Esta asignatura se caracteriza por que introduce a los alumnos de cualquier ingenierÃa en el mundo de la TopografÃa y la Geodesia, y en definitiva persigue plantear al alumnos las diferentes técnicas existentes en la actualidad para que el alumno sea capaz de representar el territorio en un mapa o plano, lo que a su vez configura el documento sobre el que todo ingeniero plasma sus proyectos.

Woodpeckers may hold key to future road safety
Nov. 7 - Chinese scientists claim to have cracked the secret behind the age-old question of why the woodpecker seems to be headache-proof. The bird gets its name from the way it feeds - violently hammering its beak into the bark of trees in order to extract insects buried inside. But the scientists believe it's methods have real-world application for people as well. Rob Muir reports.
