Extractions: Interest in the future size, composition and age structure of the population has greatly increased in recent years due to the large number of immigrants who arrived in Israel primarily from the (former) USSR. This interest stems from the need for economic and social policies adapted to the needs of a quickly growing and fast-changing population. The projections present potential developments in the size, composition and structure of Israels population, which are based on potential developments in fertility, mortality and migration patterns. While these projections do not constitute an attempt to predict the future, they do provide a framework for the planning of social and economic services over the next two decades. The projections are presented in three variants: high, medium and low corresponding to the size of the population in each variant. One of the interesting findings of the present projections is that the three variants differ only slightly with regard to the future composition and structure of the population. The main differences between the three variants are the sizes of the population, although here too, there are no substantial differences (a difference of 10% at the end of the projection period between the high variant of 9 million and the low variant of 8.2 million residents). One of the main findings of the projections, is the continued rapid growth of the population, together with an increase in the proportion of its elderly. The labor force that will be available to Israels economy will be older than in the past, the burden of the elderly will increase and the burden of children will decrease. The population aged 65 and over will number a million persons twice its size in 1995.

Extractions: RussianSpaceWeb.com is an excellent source of information about current and past Russian astronautical technology. The historical part of the site is divided into five sections, including rockets, spacecraft, centers, people, and chronology. Each of these sections is very comprehensive, with plenty of material on almost every significant event since the birth of rocketry. There are lots of pictures that accompany the text. The site is frequently updated with news about the Russian space program, its contribution to the International Space Stations, and plans for future missions. [CL] Helios is the name of an unmanned, solar powered aircraft that broke many records and made history on its first successful flight last summer. With more flights scheduled for this summer, there is growing interest in the potential applications of so-called "atmospheric satellites" like Helios. This Web site, operated by the company that developed the prototype, has lots of information about the aircraft, its specifications, and, most importantly, its possible uses. The main focus is on telecommunications; because this kind of aircraft could remain at high altitudes for long periods of time, it could be used as an extremely tall tower that relays signals to and from ground stations. A video clip demonstrating this technology is also provided on the site.

Extractions: A creation of the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), this site provides scientists, researchers, engineers, and others with easy access to government resources related to science and technology. Users can limit searches by keyword, subject, agency, and type of resource (such as maps and charts or data). For the "science aware citizen," who may not be a researcher, SciTechResources allows visitors to search just within general interest science and technology resources. A categorized list of portals and gateways is also available off the front page. The site's browsing function is a bit misleading,as clicking on a broad subject takes users to a search page rather than a list of sub-categories. Nonetheless, there are many ways to access information here, including the ability to list resources by agency and to search for government laboratories by state and agency. This is a useful portal for the science community that promises to grow. [TK]

Extractions: For recent statistics, please go the the Lead Statistics and Information page. Lead is one of the oldest metals used by humankindsome historians have theorized that the downfall of the Roman Empire was expedited by the debilitating effects on its citizens of drinking water carried in lead pipes. It is the most corrosion resistant of the common metals; buildings built in Europe four centuries ago still stand under their original lead roofs. Today's major use of lead is in lead-acid storage batteries. The electrical systems of vehicles, ships, and aircraft depend on such batteries for startup, and, in some cases, batteries provide the actual motive power. Other batteries provide standby electrical power for emergencies, and very large lead-acid systems are designed to provide "peaking" power in such applications as commercial power networks and subway systems. An increasing use is in the uninterruptible power supply systems necessary for voltage control and emergency power in critical computer storage systems. Lead in gasoline, once the second largest use of lead in the United States, has been virtually phased out to eliminate the health hazard it was found to present. Nontransportation uses for lead include increasing use for soundproofing in office buildings, schools, and hotels. It is widely used in hospitals to block X-ray and gamma radiation and is employed to shield against nuclear radiation both in permanent installations and when nuclear material is being transported.

Extractions: U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS AND SCHOLARS GENERAL INFORMATION 2002 (TAX YEAR 2001) WHO MUST FILE? (ALMOST EVERYONE!) Most persons who have received income (such as salary or scholarship) from sources in the U.S. during the calendar year are required to file a U.S. Federal Income Tax Return in 2002. In addition, every person with F-1, F-2, J-1 or J-2 status who is a Tax Non-resident is required to file a Form 8843, even if no income was received in 2000. (Note: This requirement applies to dependents as well as students and scholars. ] Persons who are exempt from paying income tax based on a tax treaty are still required to file a tax return. WHEN? Your 2001 income tax return must be postmarked by 12:00 midnight on Monday, April 15, 2002 if you had employment income, or by 12:00 midnight Monday, June 17, 2002 if you had no employment income. WHAT FORMS? You must first determine whether you are a Resident or Non-resident for Tax Purposes. F-1 and J-1 students (and their F-2/J-2 dependents) are usually considered Tax Non-residents for 4-5 years; J-1 scholars (and J-2 dependents) are usually considered Tax Non-residents for 1-2 years; H-1 employees should use the "substantial presence test" described in IRS Publication 519 (You will probably be a "resident" or a "dual resident" if you held H-1 status for more than 6 months in 2001. Others should see separate handouts, Pub. 519 or a CIE Advisor to determine resident status. [Note: If you are married to a Tax Resident, you may choose to be a Tax Resident.]
