Canada should ban two anti-bacterial chemicals used inmany consumer products thatare accumulating in the wat-ers of the Great Lakes, a re-port issued Thursday said.


Association, also suggested

Canada, the United States andall provinces and states bor-dering the Great Lakes shouldprohibit use of the chemicalsand assess proposed alterna-tives before they are used.

The two products are triclo-san and triclocarban, whichare used alone and together inproducts such as toothpaste,body washes, bar soap andclothing. The chemicals areeven found in yoga mats.


In December, the U.S. Foodand Drug Administration an-nounced it was reconsideringthe safety of antibacterialsoaps and other antibacterialpersonal care products be-cause of concerns the chem-icals they contain may disrupthuman hormones and con-

tribute to the development ofantibiotic resistance.Then in May, Minnesota

made headlines when itbanned triclosan. The reportcalled triclosan a chemical of

high concern and triclocarbana chemical that should be re-placed with safer alternatives.THE CANADIAN PRESS

Watch that its supplier Shin- yang Electronics in Dongguanhired children and student

workers under the legal work-ing age.

PHILADELPHIA When robotsrst started playing soccer, it wasa challenge for them just to seethe ball. And to stay upright.

But the machines participatingin this months internationalRoboCup tournament are makingpasses and scoring points. Theirultimate goal? To beat the humanWorld Cup champs within thenext 35 years.

Its hard to predict what will

happen in 2050, but we are on theright path, said event co-founderManuela Veloso, a computerscience professor at CarnegieMellon University in Pittsburgh.

A week after the World Cuptitle game in Rio de Janeiro, teamsfrom 45 countries will face off atRoboCup about 1,200 miles awayin the Brazilian coastal town of Joao Pessoa.

The players, which rangefrom life-size humanoids towheeled objects the size of soccerballs, compete in size-based divi-sions on miniature indoor elds.The tournament runs from July19-25.

While certainly fun to watch,organizers say the annual compet-ition isnt just about creatingkicking machines. Its aboutteaching the fully autonomousrobots to make quick, smart de-cisions while working together ina changing environment.

Those algorithms can translateoff the eld into technology likeself-driving cars or deliverydrones, said University of Pennsylvania engineering profess-or Dan Lee. RoboCup includesseparate contests for service ro-bots and search-and-rescuedroids.

Lee, who directs Penns roboticslab in Philadelphia, has been thehead coach of the schoolsRoboCup soccer teams since2002. Back then, the games re-sembled those played by ve-

year-old children, Lee said.They would all cluster togeth-

er, he said of the robots. Who-ever got the ball would have ahard time guring out which wayto kick the ball.

Now, its like watching10-year-olds execute basic athleticskills and strategies, said Lee. Thebattery-powered creatures play

much shorter matches about 20minutes, compared with 90minutes in the World Cup butgenerally follow the same rules.Humans referee the games, enter-ing their calls into a computer that

communicates with the robots.Penn, which has won the pastthree years in the kid-size hu-manoid league, is one of about

eight U.S. universities travelling toBrazil. Students are bringing ave-foot-tall metal humanoidnamed THOR (Tactical Hazard-ous Operations Robot) to play inthe adult-size division, as well as asquad of smaller plastic whiterobots known as Naos an off-the-shelf model that looks like across between a Star Wars Storm-trooper and the Stay Puft marsh-mallow man from Ghostbusters.

Just like humans, the robotshave to practice as studentsmonitor (but do not control) their

actions in the lab. And, just likehumans, robots can get injured:THOR needed hip surgery lastmonth to replace a blown motor.

When RoboCup rst began in1997, Veloso said, most roboticsresearch focused on the abilitiesof single machines, such asNASAs Sojourner rover on Mars.RoboCup seeks to emphasizemachine collaboration, she said.

The team from George MasonUniversity in Virginia wants toteach its players to work togetherin real time a crucial skill forusing droids to respond to dis-asters or emergencies. Studentsplan to train their 18-inch-tallhumanoids through eld demon-strations immediately before eachgame.

You dont program humans toplay soccer, said team advisorSean Luke, a computer scienceprofessor. We want (robots) tolearn how to play soccer the sameway humans learn how to playsoccer.

Georgia Tech plans to competeusing small, boxy robots withomnidirectional wheels. StudentLindsey Langstaff, 22, said shelooks forward to working withother teams to help further re-search.

You want to be able to bringsomething to the table thatnobodys come up with yet,Langstaff said.

Next year, Veloso said, therobots might play outside.
