The reason why Japan has the 2nd highest adoption rate in the world, why 98 percent of those being adopted are male adults between 20 and 30, and the problems with the adoption of children in Japan.

KinectBalls: An Interactive Tool for Ball Throwing GamesTom Mens
Presentation by Jonathan Schoreels of KinectBalls during the INTETAIN 2013 conference in Mons, 4 July 2013. KinectBalls is an interactive computer game in which a player throws real balls toward a virtual scene, using the Kinect 3D sensor. This work is the result of a master student project at the Département d'Informatique, Faculté des Sciences, UMONS, Belgium
Object-oriented software engineering: Example (for teaching purposes) of a refactoring case study based on a very simple Java example of a Local Area Network. Used as part of the software engineering and software evolution courses of the University of Mons, taught by Prof. Tom Mens, Software Engineering Lab.
A Generic Framework for Executable Gestural Interaction ModelsTom Mens
Presentation by Romuald Deshayes at VL/HCC 2013 (San Jose, California) of joint paper with Tom Mens and Philippe Palanque about executable Petri net modeling of HMI applications
Seconda: A tool for analysing software ecosystemsTom Mens
Presentation by Javier Perez, Software Engineering Lab, University of Mons, Belgium. Presented during the CSMR 2012 conference in Szeged, Hungary.
Software ecosystems are coherent collections of software projects that evolve together and are main- tained by the same developer community. They exhibit some particular evolution features because of the dependencies between the software projects and the interactions between the community members. Tools for analysing and visualising the evolution of software ecosystems must take these aspects into account. SECONDA is a software ecosys- tem visualization and analysis dashboard that offers both individual and grouped analysis of the evolution of projects and developers belonging to the software ecosystem, at coarse-grained and fine-grained level. Using GNOME as a case study, we use SECONDA to study these ecosystem and community aspects.

An introduction to social media in prevention, why it is important, how to get started, plus a little explore/discover stories. Delivered online via Elluminate.
2. Ideology Are The Beliefs And Values That Determine How We Live Together http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyrusmafi /3485319726/in/photostream/ Example: We Have Respect For Our Land Because We Know How Important It Is And That It Provides Us With Our Food, Compared To People In A big City Who Don’t Grow There Own Food.

9. Rule of Law All Citizens Have To Obey By The Set Of Rules Of The Law And Everyone Is Identical Before The Law. The Power Of The Law Over Powering The Power Of An Individual. Example: People are not aloud to go over the speed limit, and if law is broke you will be fined. http://www.google.ca/images?hl=en&safe=active&biw=1436&bih=694&gbv=2&tbs=isch%3A1&sa=1&q=speed+limit+sign&aq=0&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=speed+limit&gs_rfai=
