The Way I See It!
I am an Ultra-Conservative, Alpha-Male, True Authentic Leader, Type "C" Personality, who is very active in my community; whether it is donating time, clothes or money for Project Concern or going to Common Council meetings and voicing my opinions. As a blogger, I intend to provide a different viewpoint "The way I see it!" on various world, national and local issues with a few helpful tips & tidbits sprinkled in.
Is El Rey Coming to Packard Plaza?
So my wife was at the Franklin Wal-Mart checking out and two women in front of her were talking about the new South Milwaukee Wal-Mart opening in April.
As it was the women's turn to check out, the casher noticed the woman paying was from Cudahy and the casher said to the woman, "Oh, is the new Wal-Mart in Cudahy or South Milwaukee?"
The woman paying said, "Not in Cudahy but in South Milwaukee, but our Mayor is going to announce next week that El Rey is coming to Cudahy and going into the Packard Plaza he told me so today!"
So there you have it, Mayor Day made his major announcement to two women from Cudahy!
Stay tune, I hear Mayor Day is going to talk about Packard Plaza Tuesday during the Common Council meeting!

You'd think 50 years of chasing the bad guys would be tiring, wouldn't you?
Maybe it's time to stay dead for a while and enjoy the beach, booze and girls?
James Bond, secret agent 007, has been serving Her Majesty's MI6 through a myriad adventures and his latest adversary is no less dangerous than those who came before him.
Returning to the fold after his last mission nearly went horribly wrong, Bond's resurrection is complete when M gives him back his full agent status - despite some misgivings.
And the mission: Bond (Daniel Craig) must find and subdue the creepy madman Silva (Javier Bardem) before hereveals the identity of fellow secret agents across the world and exacts his revenge on M (Dame Judi Dench).
Silva was once a colleague of Bond's until M washed her hands of him when he went rogue.
Angry and obsessed, nothing less than her death will do for Silva.
Silva poses a real threat to Bond with his supreme intellect and total disregard for humanity.
Bond doesn't know it, but every move he makes is being orchestrated by Silva with the ultimate aim of luring him and M into his trap.
Just when Bond thinks he is getting close, the madman skips away all too easily.
And the hunt for Silva is typical Bond.
There's car chases, motorbike chases and a multitude of gunfights and fistfights.
There's an out-of-control train hurtling through a tunnel.
There's danger and adventure at every turn.
Skyfall hasn't moved away from the proven Bond formula.
It is all action throughout its 145 minutes and it builds up to the ultimate showdown on a remote Scottish country estate.
It comes down to kill or be killed and Bond must use his special skills to survive and protect M.

Critical thinking model
Distinguished Faculty Awards presented April 2
By Anne Englert
Assistant Director of Student Relations, UTSA Alumni Programs
(April 3, 2009)--The UTSA Alumni Association and the Student Alumni Association presented April 2 the 2009 Distinguished Faculty Awards to Lilian Cano, lecturer in Spanish (non-tenure track), and Malgorzata Oleszkiewicz-Peralba, associate professor of Latin American studies (tenure track).
The awards were presented by Danny Zimmermann '01, president of the UTSA Alumni Association, and SAA members Korin Lewis and Lisa Saavedra. Each winner received a check for $250 from the Alumni Association in appreciation of their commitment to outstanding teaching and university life.
A lecturer in Spanish in the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures, Cano was nominated by Jim Geiger, a student in Spanish. According to Geiger, Cano positively reinforces student learning, which builds confidence in students regarding their ability to learn. "Dr. Cano encourages students to take bold steps across a linguistic bridge into the Spanish-speaking world," said Geiger
Oleszkiewicz-Peralba teaches courses on Latin American culture and women writers in the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures. Her nominator, Alejandra Osejo, said Peralba fosters critical thinking in and out of the classroom. Last year, Peralba did a presentation at UTSA for the first International Conference on Literature, Culture and Religion in the Hispanic World, which exposed many UTSA students to a new understanding of Latin American countries. Oleszkiewicz-Peralba brings these countries to the students through projects such as a short video she made about the indigenous people of Peru and discussions with students about research projects and cultural organizations. She also has published several articles and books. According to Osejo, the professor is an "encyclopedia of Latin American culture, history and art... and the quality and worth of her works make her the perfect professor for art, culture and literature courses."
Thirteen nominating essays were received from UTSA students. Professors are evaluated on their availability to students and their ability to motivate and stimulate critical thinking.

The teenager driving in the fatal Bethlehem College crash would not have been legally allowed to drive the HiAce which rolled in Kenya.
The Tauranga school admitted this week former student David Fellows, 18, was driving the van which crashed last month, killing four people.
Kenya's Traffic Act requires drivers of minibuses - known as "matatus" - to be at least 24 years old and have held a licence for cars or commercial vehicles for four years or more. A matatu is defined as a public service vehicle (PSV) having seating for up to 25 passengers.
Bethlehem College's board of trustees chairman Greg Hollister-Jones said he had "no idea" if the law was discussed before the fatal journey.
Traffic laws were the subject of a major publicity campaign in Kenya while the college group were there. Kenya Broadcasting Corporation deputy editor-in-chief Samuel Maina said Kenya's Ministry of Transport launched "a huge campaign" around mid-November in five major newspapers, five TV stations, and around 10 radio stations.
"The issue of road carnage is a big issue in Kenya," Maina said.
If Kenyan authorities deemed the Ark Quest Academy HiAce - which was marked "School Van" - was a vehicle intended for public service, more offences could have been committed.
Under Kenyan law, it was an offence for a non-designated person to drive a PSV, or for other people to allow such a person to drive.
"If you're running a taxi, school van, a bus, minibus, tour van - all that falls under PSV and I think all the rules apply to that uniformly about what you need to have if you're operating a PSV," said Amar Mehta, senior associate at Nairobi-based Coulson Harney law firm.
Initially, Kenyan man Christopher Mmata was falsely named as the driver in the January 16 crash. He died, as did three New Zealanders. Fellows has since apologised - and acknowledged there should not have been a driver swap - but it remains unclear who prevented Fellows being immediately identified as the driver.
Hollister-Jones said the college was investigating. "I've been saying for days the circumstances around the driver swap will be the subject of the board's inquiry." The Bethlehem College group were building and maintaining school facilities in Mahanga, roughly 375km northwest of Nairobi.
Former Bethlehem College pupil Caitlin Dickson, 19, and Tauranga couple Brian and Grace Johnston died in the accident and were farewelled last week.

So whether you have cable or Satalite how many here think the consumer should be able to pick the channels they want to pay for? If I want cable I am forced to buy from only one company per law, that is a pile of garbage. same with DTV. I'm not going to SAT because been there done that when I had no choice (no cable on my street back then) and in bad weather( searching for SAT) .
I'm tired of paying for a ton of shopping channels we never watch and not being able to vote with my money when channels dump or add something based on stupid politics.
While I never watch the food network I pay for it not by choice. Right now I would love to dump it but there is no way to dump the channel and tell them to go yo know what. I still hae to pay for that. I can't even vote with my money!

Cisplatin Injection
Cisplatin injection (cisplatin injection (cisplatin (cisplatin injection) injection) ) should be administered under the supervision of a qualified physician experienced in the use of cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Appropriate management of therapy and complications is possible only when adequate diagnostic and treatment facilities are readily available.
Cumulative renal toxicity associated with cisplatin (cisplatin injection) is severe. Other major dose-related toxicities are myelo-suppression, nausea, and vomiting.
Ototoxicity, which may be more pronounced in children, and is manifested by tinnitus, and/or loss of high frequency hearing and occasionally deafness, is significant.
Anaphylactic-like reactions to cisplatin (cisplatin injection) have been reported. Facial edema, bronchoconstriction, tachycardia, and hypotension may occur within minutes of cisplatin (cisplatin injection) administration. Epinephrine, corticosteriods, and antihistamines have been effectively employed to alleviate symptoms (see WARNINGS and ADVERSE REACTIONS sections).
Exercise caution to prevent inadvertent cisplatin (cisplatin injection) overdose. Doses greater than 100 mg/m2/cycle once every 3 to 4 weeks are rarely used. Care must be taken to avoid inadvertent cisplatin (cisplatin injection) overdose due to confusion with carboplatin or prescribing practices that fail to differentiate daily doses from total dose per cycle.
Cisplatin Injection (cisplatin injection (cisplatin (cisplatin injection) injection) ) is a sterile aqueous solution, available in 50, 100 and 200 mL multiple dose vials, each mL containing 1 mg of cisplatin (cisplatin injection) and 9 mg sodium chloride in water for injection. HCI and/or sodium hydroxide added to adjust pH to 3.5 to 4.5.
Cisplatin (cisplatin injection) (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum) is a heavy metal complex containing a central atom of platinum surrounded by two chloride atoms and two ammonia molecules in the cis position. It is a white powder with the molecular formula PtCl2H6N2, and a molecular weight of 300.05. It is soluble in water or saline at 1 mg/mL and in dimethylformamide at 24 mg/mL. It has a melting point of 207°C.
What are the precautions when taking cisplatin injection (Cisplatin)?
Before using cisplatin, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to carboplatin; or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: kidney disease, decreased bone marrow function/blood cell disorders (e.g., anemia, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia), hearing problems, mineral imbalance (low blood levels of sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphate), numbness/tingling of the hands/feet, kidney stones, gout.
Do not have immunizations/vaccinations without the consent of your doctor and avoid contact with people who have recently...

While most families are finalizing the garnishes on the stuffing and setting their tables, being thankful that Mitt Romney didn't snag this month's elections, President Barack Obama is busy showing thanks in his own way.
PHOTOS: Gobble-Gobble! President Obama Pardons The National Turkey
The 51-year-old President and his family decided to spend their holiday giving back to those who are less fortunate – with the help of his wife, daughters and members of the Oregon State men's basketball team, of which Michelle Obama's brother is coach.
The family handed out specially prepared packages, while a White House aide said that the bags contained carrots, apples, and season-appropriate sweet potatoes, all the makings for a healthy Thanksgiving.

The family has been volunteering their Thanksgiving time to the needy since 2008 and Obama encourages other families to do the same.

Today I finally finished my patch to teach Eclipse about the common free software cvs repositories. I sent it in. I expect to have to rewrite it again. Right now it only knows about 7 repositories; I'm sure there are a bunch of important ones I'm missing. We've come a long way! Back in the day, says grandpa, there were no public repositories at all. It's hard to believe how primitive things were in 1990.
Not sure what I'll work on next. Probably humdrum bugs again.
Today wondered idly whether the Eclipse platform could be used as the base for a movie editor. I'm guessing there would probably be some significant problems doing it.

Central Park
Hip-Hop Theater: King Kong
Monday, August 5, 2013
8:00 p.m.–9:30 p.m.
Please note: This event has already taken place. Please use the Search options on the right to find upcoming events.
Acclaimed impresario of non-traditional theater Randy Weiner and director Alfred Preisser team up for a hip-hop themed theater remake of the classic story, "King Kong," a totally original music/dance/comedy spectacle that radically subverts everything you thought you knew about one of the most famous love stories of all time. Set in the "Bronx is Burning" era of the late 1970s, SummerStage's "King Kong" celebrates the nascent forms of hip-hop music and graffiti art that grew out of the economically stressed South Bronx and went on to become one of the defining, most powerful and profitable artistic movements in the world.
The Gold brothers, the owners of a failing R&B label (Gold Records) are in search of a musical savior. Having heard of a mystic place, a lost world cut off from the rest of civilization by the East River to the south and the Cross Bronx Expressway to the north and enshrouded in the fog of a thousand apartment building fires set by absentee landlords, the legendary South Bronx of 1978 is also the home of the most talented artist alive. Kong is an M.C. and natural genius of rhyme and rhythm whose awesome powers transcend artificial categories and defy the crass and hackneyed formulas of the commercial music industry. In hot pursuit of Kong, the Gold brothers hire a beautiful secretary, Faye Wellington, and go off to capture this force of nature in order to profit from Kong's gifts and share his music with a world desperately in need of inspiration. They load up the Gold family Volvo and journey to deepest, darkest South Bronx to capture Kong and bring him to civilization.
SummerStage Theatre, in collaboration with Preisser and Weiner, have created a fun, outrageous, and thoroughly entertaining work that will be not only be a unique and exciting experience but also a twisted and insightful treatment of the racial stereotypes inherent in the "King Kong" story.

text: Well, this is really interesting. One has to think that along with the money we provide people perhaps we should also require classes in decision making. In the photo, I'm pretty sure that I see a case of bottled water. I believe that most municipal water is safe to drink and a lot cheaper than that bottled stuff. If you feel that you must buy bottled water, at least buy the gallon or five gallon bottles. Why do they have rotten vegetables in the fridge? They both work in grocery stores. They should buy their produce as needed instead of all at once on the firs of the month. It really annoys me to see people use their lonestar card to buy expensive, wasteful foods and then use their cash to buy cigarettes or beer, and the idea that they can afford tattoos is just really offensive.

HIGHCROFT ACURA SQUAD SCORES ANOTHER PODIUM FINISH IN WET ROAD AMERICA AMERICAN LE MANS SERIES DUEL Brabham, Johansson Survive Downpour, Several On-Track Incidents For Third ELKHART LAKE, Wis. -- The four-hour Generac 500 ...
Brabham, Johansson Survive Downpour, Several On-Track Incidents For Third
ELKHART LAKE, Wis. -- The four-hour Generac 500 sports car race at Road America ended up being run in two segments Saturday with a wild rain storm in the middle and David Brabham and Stefan Johansson were happy to survive with their No. 9 Highcroft Acura ARX-01a.
The veteran drivers fought through some on-track contacts and pouring rain to collect their third podium finish of the 2007 American Le Mans Series with a solid third place to the two Penske Porsches in the LMP2 class in the eighth race of the 12-event campaign.
Brabham, who qualified his Acura third in class on Friday, looked strong at the drop of the green flag but lost ground when Guy Smith made contact in his Porsche and spun the Australian driver in Turn Eight. Brabham charged back from tenth to fifth before relinquishing the controls to Johansson. The former Formula One and Champ Car star continued the Highcroft Acura assault before the rain brought out the yellow flag for some 50 minutes.
When the racing resumed, Johansson made an impressive charge on the treaded Michelin tires, taking his Acura ARX-01a to fourth. But Johansson's advances were stopped briefly when Ryan Briscoe's Porsche ran into the No. 9 Acura. The Swede came back to third in the LMP2 category before passing the driving chores back to Brabham for the finish.
Brabham had extended the Highcroft team's advantage when the checkered flag flew in darkness. Highcroft Racing has also scored podium placings at St. Petersburg and Lime Rock in 2007.
The Lowe's Fernandez Acura Lola B06/40, with drivers Adrian Fernandez and Luis Diaz, came back from a malfunction at the start to run as high as fourth, but had settle for sixth. Diaz was also a victim of contact Saturday when a slower GT sedan hit Diaz' Acura early in the race.
Taking seventh was the XM Satellite Radio Acura ARX-01a of Marino Franchitti and Bryan Herta. Franchitti led the Acura contingent in the first half of the race but the Scotsman's car was also hit by a slower GT car. That contact knocked out the Andretti Green car's suspension alignment and slowed the team's effort Saturday.
DAVID BRABHAM (#9 Highcroft Racing Acura ARX-01a): "Guy Smith came to me and apologized after the race and I was happy with that. We had to fight back from that incident with Guy. The Highcroft Acura was good today. I'm not sure we really had anything for the Penske Porsches. But it was a solid result for this young team. We had the pace of everyone else and we kept pushing all day. Both Stefan [Johansson] and I drove hard in all types of conditions including the wet. It was a good burst for Duncan [Dayton, team owner] and the crew. We had a couple of sensors let go at the end of the race and I was nervous that a tire might be going down. But that wasn't the case. So everything worked out well for us. I was lucky, too, as Ben Devlin hit me on the back section of the track and that is very fast. But the car held up great and we continued. There were a lot of incidents out there today."
STEFAN JOHANSSON (#9 Highcroft Racing Acura ARX-01a): "It was kind of a crazy race. But we recovered well to get back on the podium. With everything going on today, that was about the result were hoping for. I could see the rain coming and kept calling in to the team on the radio. They were ready for the rain tires but the timing wasn't really good when we pitted. So I had to go back to tenth and we worked our way back through the grid. It is still good to get back on the podium. We'll work on getting higher on the podium in the near future."
ADRIAN FERNANDEZ (No. 15 Lowe's Fernandez Racing Acura Lola B06/40): "It was a tough day. It started on the grid with some electronic problem with the dash and we had to start from the back of the grid. We had to run with no dash and no shifting lights the entire race. Then the rain came and basically we were always playing catch-up but the team never gave up. I jumped in for the last hour and by then we had lost the radio as well. But the car was good. I was having a great battle with Bryan Herta but I had some issues with rubber stuck in the fenders and felt like I had a flat tire and I had to catch back up again. In all, it was a day in which we never gave up regardless of the problems and it shows what a strong team we have."
LUIS DIAZ (No. 15 Lowe's Fernandez Racing Acura Lola B06/40): "It was unfortunate that we had problems from the beginning with an electrical issue and we lost the radio also. Then I had a stop-and-go penalty. I was on the inside and the Porsche beside me touched the other Porsche and they hit me. It was not under braking and I didn't even move the steering wheel. I would like to review the video but I didn't try anything. It's a shame we had problems today because the car was running good and it was pretty fast. Unfortunately, we had all this drama at the beginning and I had to start from the back."
BRYAN HERTA (#26 XM Satellite Radio AGR Acura ARX-01a): "We timed the tire change just right when I jumped in the car after the rain. The XM Acura wasn't bad at the start of the stint. But the damage to the car from an earlier contact that Marino [Franchitti] had really hurt our race at the end. The car wouldn't turn into the corners and it was handling like a dump truck. Basically I couldn't get around the track at that point. I just did the best I could to bring it home to the finish."
MARINO FRANCHITTI (#26 XM Satellite Radio AGR Acura ARX-01a): "We were definitely competitive today. But I got hit by a GT car and the XM Satellite Radio Acura never handled the same. It knocked the steering out quite a bit. It was rough on the wear of the front tires. But we held in there and I was able to make some good passes on the Dyson Porsches. After the rain came, I thought we were very fast. The car felt good but, when the track dried out, the XM Acura just wasn't the same. The Acura was working well today but the car just didn't have the proper grip once we had contact. It is disappointing because I thought we had a good chance to get back up on the podium. I am looking forward to going to Mosport [Aug. 26] in Canada. That is one of my favorite tracks in North America."

A lump in the abdomen is a small area of swelling or bulge of tissue in the belly.
Abdominal hernia; Hernia - abdominal; Abdominal wall defects; Lump in the abdominal wall; Abdominal wall mass
Most often, a lump in the abdomen is caused by a hernia. An abdominal hernia occurs when there is weak spot in the abdominal wall. This allows the internal organs to bulge through the muscles of the abdomen. A hernia may appear after you strain, or lift something heavy, or after a long period of coughing.
There are several types of hernias, based on where they occur:
Other causes of a lump in the abdominal wall include:
Call your doctor if you have a lump in your abdomen that becomes larger, changes color, or is painful.
If you have a hernia, call your doctor if:
The blood supply may be cut off to the organs that stick out through the hernia. This is called a strangulated hernia. This condition is very rare, but it is a medical emergency when it occurs.
The doctor will examine you and ask questions about your medical history and symptoms, such as:
During the physical exam, you may be asked to cough or strain.
Surgery may be needed to correct hernias that do not go away or cause symptoms. The surgery may be done through a large surgical cut, or through a smaller cut into which the surgeon inserts a camera and other instruments.

Graze at the Stoneleigh is open and serving three meals a day
At long last, Le Méridien Dallas, the Stoneleigh has opened its restaurant — Graze at the Stoneleigh. In fact, it has been quietly serving breakfast, lunch and dinner since sometime in January, according to Stoneleigh Food and Beverage manager Shannon Simpson. Executive chef Juan Rosado, who has been with the hotel since September, was most recently executive chef at the Rosewood Crescent Hotel. His dinner menu proposes straight-ahead modern American fare, including starters like shrimp tempura with melon, prosciutto and lemon aioli; crab cake with roasted corn, smoked tomato and mango; and burrata with tomato confit and garlic. There are basic salads (Caesar; Iceberg wedge; spinach and watermelon), steaks and chops. Other main courses include maple plank-roasted wild salmon; crackling pork shank; and roasted "under a brick" Jidori chicken.
At lunchtime, salads, lobster rolls, roasted chicken clubs, rib-eye steak sandwiches and the like are the idea; for breakfast, there's a croque madame, pumpkin bread with tomato confit or a smoked salmon and poached egg sandwich in addition to more classic morning fare (pancakes, huevos rancheros, biscuits and sausage with scrambled eggs).
As for sweets, look for the usual suspects: profiteroles, Key lime pie; chocolate cake, mascarpone cheesecake.
Graze is in the space that was most recently T/X (I know, you missed that one, right?). Previously it was Bolla.

that has to suck. and coming down to Bangor Maine is a little too far for figures, don't you thunk?
It takes about 2 hours and 15 minutes to get to Bangor from here. The last time I was down there they actually had LESS stuff than we did. Still, Bangor has been a pretty good place to find stuff. My sister's going to be working in Saint Stephen starting next week so I'm gonna slip over to Calais and see if there is anything there if we don't get new stuff by then. Still though, we did get 20 figures up here plus Slave I. I'm hope more stuff shows up soon.

Jonboy, lowly bantha cleaner,
i went to TRU today and it was unreal, so many toys.
my friend went to walmart, he saw nothing
i need an ephant mon, who wants to help? :D
Did anybody up here see the Reek, Jedi Starfighter, Speeders, or Deluxe Figures? I hope we get them.
Hating aurra sing since 1999.
What is with some of the WM stores only letting you buy 2 figures per person? I was about to deliver the peoples elbow on one manager yesterday!!
" You ever dance with the devil by the pale moon light? I ask all my prey, I just like the sound of it"
" See you around kid "
Yesterday, we had the speeders, Slave 1 and most of the figs at our 2 walmarts, but neither one has all the figs. I didn't see tusken female or boba at either, but was told they were at TRU here in town. Anyone with specific questions just PM me. I've been here kinda sporadically lately, so just have patience. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Oh yeah, no taun we or anything. Anyone see that one? Dooku?
Something about him reminds me of my older brother, Rex.
The most figures that we got are 21. The 4 deluxe figures should now be at a TRU near you, but IMO, they suck. The 2 speeders and the Slave 1 are bountiful around here. (Hamilton)
Matter of fact, there is till a TONNE of figures left. Once again, they ordered way too many.
No Reek and no Jedi Starfighter either.
We only have 14 figs up here in Ottawa and only Slave 1 for a vehicle.
No speeders, no jedi starfighter.
Methinks all of the stores up here are a little skittish after the Ep1 debacle.
Has anybody seen Chancellor Palpy?
Count dooku?

Hard to beat a big slab of belly meat off of a 50 pound flat cat.
Do yall hang em and bleed em?
Best I ever had was some big ones out of the Pecos river.
Me and one guy had paddled out to a big rock and we were on it catching bait. He tied the canoe to a nail in the rock and I said that aint going to work so I checked it and said its fine.
Turned around a little latter canoe was gone. The guy on land was scared of water so he wouldnt go after it.
Swim back to shore go down stream and trough some cane brush and charged buy javelinos. Interesting morning
We've never bleed them or hang em out,but with the bigger blues I will soak the meat for 2-3 days ,changing the water daily.
The exception I've found...there is a little local lake that doesnt allow you to use your boat ,so you pay $5 to rent theirs and bring your trolling motor. Most people wont fish there due to that law,but I go there just as soon as the water opens from the ice ,generally February ish and have great luck with rod and reel fishing(only method allowed on that lake) and catch up to 40 pound blues. The meat is excellent,and I believe that it is because they dont have the fat content from using it all winter long. The are skillet ready with no soaking.
Try washing the meat with lemon dish washing soap. So simple.
Very serious thread digressed in a matter of minutes.
As far as coat colors, just like people they are all the same when the color is removed. Rumors abound about genetics and color and laziness but that is all they are rumors and opinions and you know what goes after that. How is that for digression? BSEG! Black dogs can't jump.....

Torquato selected to receive Prager Medal
Posted January 16, 2004; 05:08 p.m.
Princeton chemist Salvatore Torquato has been named the 2004 recipient of the Society of Engineering Science William Prager Medal, which is given for outstanding research contributions in either theoretical or experimental solid mechanics or both.
The medal is one of the four major awards presented by this interdisciplinary society. It includes a $2,000 cash award and a symposium dedicated in Torquato's honor that will take place at the annual meeting in October. Torquato will give a separate plenary (Prager) lecture on his work at the same meeting.
Torquato was cited for "his outstanding and pioneering research accomplishments in advancing our fundamental understanding of the microstructure and bulk physical properties of heterogeneous materials."
Heterogeneous materials abound in man-made situations and in nature, and include such materials as particulate- and fiber-reinforced composites, thin films, colloids, packed beds, foams, polymer blends, suspensions, animal and plant tissue, microemulsions, sintered materials and sandstones. This broad research area, dating back to the work of James Clerk Maxwell and Albert Einstein, has important ramifications in engineering, statistical physics, materials science, geophysics, chemical physics, colloid science and biology.
"Torquato has introduced the solid mechanics of heterogeneous materials to all of these communities as evidenced by his publications in all of these fields," the award citation stated.
A Princeton faculty member since 1992, Torquato is a professor in the chemistry department and in the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials .
The Society of Engineering Science has been organized "to foster and promote the interchange of ideas and information among the various fields of engineering science and the fields of theoretical and applied physics, chemistry, mathematics, bioengineering and related scientific and engineering fields."

And a bunch more that I can't think of at the moment.
Anyways, watched Man of Steel at the midnight premiere on Thursday night. I loved it. Probably the best Superman movie made since the original Christopher Reeve film. In fact, I might even like it better than that one. Superman has always been one of my favorite superheroes, so it's cool to see him getting the epic treatment that he deserves. I had a few minor problems with the story and the final battle goes on a bit too long, but they got Superman right and to me that's the most important part of any superhero movie.
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split. - Robert E. Howard
I saw some spoilers about Man of Steel that make me completely uninterested in seeing it. No, make that completely opposed to seeing it. There are some things about a character that iconic that are simply not negotiable in my book, and I understand the film betrays two of them in a major way. Don't want to sound too gripey, but I refuse to pay money to see it. Sure, it'll make jillions, but none of it from my pocket. So I'll just pretend it's an adaptation of Rob Liefeld's Supreme or something, because, with what I've read and don't want to get too spoilery about, it pretty much is, except they gave him feet.
That's my jacket!
****excruciatingly spoiler-free****
I saw Man of Steel. I liked that I was watching a Superman film where he actually and consistently does something. Though I had a several problems with various key elements in the film, this is the first film where Superman really does Superman-type stuff throughout the entirety of the film. In the past, Superman films focused on the "man" part more than the "super" part, probably because the "super" stuff is very expensive. The tone of the film is decidedly serious, somber, and, when you couple this the Dark Knight trilogy, you can easily see a clear contrast established by DC to the Marvel movie-verse which just seems to be more fun. Though I suppose the Green Lantern fiasco of a film sort renders my point partially invalid, that film, which I found unwatchable to point where I got up and left to exchange my 3D glasses and buy concessions, is a better comparison point than the Batman films in that Man of Steel, while problematic, is definitely watchable and enjoyable. The performances and effects were strong, the music was subtle (smartly avoiding any John Williams reference), and the 3D was not annoying. I think that when you start plotting story by an executive committee, there is a bound to be a disconnect. I'll still watch the extended version of the film (I read somewhere that the first cut was over three hours long - so I'm sure we'll see it on bluray at some point) to see if any of my concerns get addressed, though I suspect most will not.
The Christopher Reeve/Richard Donner Superman is still my favorite and when I think more about that film, I can see how its humor and reverence for the source material really influenced the Marvel movie-verse much more than it seems to have influenced the DC movie verse.
I watched myself fight in Christopher Guest's HBO mini-series, "Family Tree," my debut being last night!

World War Z. I walked into the theatre expecting a big-budget zombie movie, and that's what I got. I haven't read the book (yet) but I was aware of the uproar about the exceptions made between the book and movie. The CG effects were the real star of this movie.
Gorky Park (1983). Hadn't seen this one if 20+ years. It's refreshing to see Lee Marvin playing a sophicated businessman instead of a drunk cowboy or soldier.
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man (1991). Another one I hadn't seen in about 20 years. Watched it after a co-worker reminded me it was on the TV.

Sydney Airport and Airservices Australia have commenced upgrade works on the instrument landing system (ILS) to enhance low-visibility operations during poor weather or fog.
"Sydney is fortunate to have fair weather for most of the year, however, airport operations can occasionally be affected by fog or poor weather," Sydney Airport Chief Executive Officer Kerrie Mather said.
"This essential work supports Sydney Airport becoming a Category II airport over the next 12 months, which will enhance capacity during low visibility conditions such as fog.
"The ILS is a radio navigation aid, one of a suite of navigational systems that guide air traffic into the airport, particularly during fog or poor weather.
"Upgrade of the ILS follows the commissioning of stop bars on the airfield last year and keeps Sydney Airport in line with world's best practice on safety.
"Less diversions and delays are good news for airlines and the travelling public.
"The works have been scheduled for a time of year to minimise the potential for operational disruption, however, until the end of March while the ILS is being upgraded, there may be delays in the event of unseasonably poor weather, such as that experienced over the past weekend.
"We will work with Airservices Australia and our airline partners to minimise any disruption these works may cause for travellers in the event of poor weather.
"This is a great project that will enhance operations at Sydney Airport and we thank the public for their understanding in advance."

use Science Techbook™ in their classrooms during this first year
of implementation. The change that is taking place not only brings a
powerful digital resource into the classroom, but embraces a method
of teaching that allows our teachers to become facilitators of knowledge.
Interactivity is the critical function that separates static text from a fully digital resource. With Core Interactive Text, Discovery Education Biology Techbook™ takes interactivity to a whole new level. Designed to reach every learner, Core Interactive Text (CIT) is Science Techbook's groundbreaking user interface that captures the unique benefits of digital – sound, video, images, explorations, text-to-speech, note-taking and highlighting – with one-button simplicity.
Mastering science vocabulary is critical to student success in biology. Discovery Education's Interactive Glossary brings science vocabulary to life. This landmark multimedia resource includes:
Digital explorations are dynamic interactive learning tools developed exclusively by Discovery Education. They provide a superior way to understand how vital biological processes -- like cellular respiration – work and to determine the cause and effect relationships between key variables.

There are 54 rooms at the Altin Orfe Hotel, each having air-conditioning, safe boxes, satellite TV and radio, private bathroom with shower, WC, direct dial telephone and a balcony or terrace. Safety deposit box available at extra charge.
Facilities at the Altin Orfe Hotel include a swimming pool, sun beds, parasols, fitness centre, TV room, games room, table tennis, snack & pool bar, an indoor restaurant and outdoor restaurant, outdoor swimming pool with a separate childrens pool, a sauna, laundry service and a limited day and evening entertainment programme.
Meals & Drinks...All Inclusive breakfast 07.30 - 10.00 . Lunch 12.30 - 14.00 . Dinner 14.30 - 16.00 . Snacks 16.30 - 17.00 . Soft and local alcoholic drinks free 10.00 - 24.00
Just stayed here for 2 weeks what can I say, apart from awfull. The hotel is nothing like its advert, there is no entertainment, no fitness suite, no sauna etc.
The bar area is very dated and stuffy, and as for the drinks well forget it, they are that watered down they are undrinkable. The pool is dirty and desperate for a good clean, if you have young children there is a tiny baby pool but the staff just sit there and moan about kids splashing.
The food is the same every day and you have to fight the greedy Russians who rush for the food like they have never been fed before. Ah now let's start with the Russians 1st of all this hotel is full of young single Russian ladies, you have to ask yourself why ? I know what I think is going on there.
During the day they are worse than the Germans for the sunbeds. The rooms are basic and you have to ask for them cleaning, the staff seem to dump all the English in the roof rooms which are awfull and everyone complains.
There is also a poor little monkey called Charlie who is dumped in a cage at the side of the pool the staff do nothing to look after it. It is fed on scraps and given Orange squash to drink.
Hope this helped. Ps icmeler is a fantastic resort, just don't go to this hotel
Just spent two weeks in this hotel. BRITISH DO NOT GO THERE! Its Russian owned, full of Russians and they hate the brits. Staff rude and unfriendly (unless you're Russian).
Food poor (unless you're Russian). Ate out most days, spent a small fortune! Roof rooms are appalling, everyone refused to stay in them, pigeon coops!
All drinks in bar are watered down, the beer is undrinkable. They run out of everything for days, soft drinks, beer, spirits, even TEA! Everyone drinks in the local bars (yet more expense!).
Hotel is scruffy and run down, pool area a mess, insuffient sunbeds. No gym, no inside bar, no entertainment, nothing for kids to do. Bad reputation throught Icmeler.
Stayed 2 weeks, worst 2 weeks ever. Our room was right under the pub so every night it was constant loud music and shouting dj from 8pm till 12am, it was a complete nightmare.
The food was terrible, example, breakfast was boiled eggs, cheese and salad i think you can imagine the rest.
The drink, well that was 90% water, as for sauna, laundry room, pool table, internet, night entertainment, kids rep, well theirs nothing like that.
Please please please dont do it. give this so called hotel a wide birth.
Icmeler itself is a lovely place and clean but when it comes to the altin orfe the nightmare begins. as a previous review states the accommodation is shocking the food isnt fit to give the pigs if i had any. you want any alcohol forget it unless u like watered down beer vodka wine raki etc...if your female single will give you real drink.
There is nothing for children unless u go to the beach,or stay round the hotel bar where loaded handguns are left on the chairs for them to pick up.
No entertainment, no sauna no sky tv no nothing which is stated in thomas cook brochure. our room toilet wasnt attached to the floor, sink was hanging of the wall minus plug. no hot water and forget about getting clean towels and bedding.
This is the worst holiday we have ever been on. The only good thing about it was the air conditioning in the room. The place needs to be completely refurnished. Cleanliness there is a joke. We never had our sheets changed during our holiday.
The only time we got our towels changed was when we left them soaking on the bathroom floor and even then we had to go to reception to ask for clean ones!
The food also is a joke. It is geared more for Russians, Polish, etc. Every meal was the same - salad, more salad and even more salad - even at breakfast. There was no meat at all at breakfast. Three mornings running there was not even any cornflakes!!
No toast either only chunks of bread. They do not have a kitchen and it appears the food we got at lunch and dinner was what was left over from hotel next door and brought over.
There are no facilities for children at all. When you went to the bar at night they kept trying to get you to buy imported drinks so you would have to pay but if you did not they gave you the local drinkin very small glasses and even then you couldn't even taste the vodka.
Everyone in the hotel thought it was watered down. They kept running out of beer, cola and ice. Bar tender was extremely rude (unless you were Russian). We never saw them cleaning round the pool or bar area the whole time we were there and the areas were filthy. My husband went into the gents toilet at the pool one day and they were washing a monkey in the sink.
Every british person we spoke to was appalled by this hotel and couldn't believe it could be so bad. Although we were supposed to be all inclusive - that was a joke - we went out most night as food and drink were so awful.
We would warn other british to give it a wide berth - it may seem like a cheap deal but believe me you end up paying double as you have to go out most days for all meals.
I think it should be renamed Hotel Altin Awful!!!
There are no indoor activities at all at this hotel as in no games room, no sauna, no table tennis etc. There is only 1 bar which is outside so if it rains there is nowhere to sit, biggest part of the restraunt is outside.
There is no entertainment programme whatsoever day or night.
The food is absoultely inedible unless you like salad!! This is the only all inclusive hotel i have ever stayed in that dishes your food out to you on a plate. Thers is no choice whatsoever.
You get 1 thing for lunch and 1 thing for dinner most of the time not knowing what you are being given! Breakfast is boiled eggs, salad and cornflakes everyday.
We were not expecting english food and have never had a problem in all the countries we've been to.
Well to start with dont be fooled by the photo of the hotel it was taken on top of roof from the hotel opposit and made to look a very big complex,its not.
I went all inclusive what a sham they have no kitchens there so all food comes from hotel next door (pigs swill)it was awfull you get brekie you expect eggs a fetta cheese but the corn flakes were stale the only thing that was fresh was the bread.
Lunch and evening meals was salad, salad, salad, with what ever was left from next door, one night ther was what looks like a load of slop with chips mixed in it looked like somthing that somebody had thrown up the night befor.
Ther are loads of russians at this hotel and they loved the food wich goes to show what they must eat back home. One night we had a b.q wich we were amazed at but managment had thers first befor we had ours. But a lot of that was under cooked.
As for the hotel if it rains ther is nowear you can sit it is all open and if it rains durin the night all the seats are wet so you have to sit on the metal frames of the chairs. Dont go there!!!!!!!!!!.
Hall green,
Decided to go for a one week holiday with my mum in early october after spending my summer before in icmeler. and i just love it.
so we booked with I***********.com to stay in Altin orfe in central icmeler. but the secound we stepped into the hotel i realized this will not be a great hol. They were overbooked (they said but dont think so) so we got to go over the street to Hotel cartier to spend our first night there.
Really annoying as it was in the middle of the night (about 3). They told us to come back the morning after so we did and they had our room ready.
And we knew it was just basic but still we had some expectaions... who dosnt on their hol??? it was very basic and clean so it was alright. Altho the balconys were very very VERY small so it was hard for both of us to be able to sit and relax at the same time. and there was only one chair aswell which was kinda wierd for a doubleroom.....??
The pool area was alright altho packed with rude russians but still clean and ok. Also there was alot of space so we could sit and relax which was good.
We had kinda high expectations on the food as we stayed in another All inclusive hotel in icmeler 08 (oylum prestige, 5 star!!!) but the food was very bad and we had to be there before the start of it to get any food as the russians is very good eaters.. so it was kinda stressful really!
The staff should be a bit more friendly if they want their hotel to be more succsefull. But maybe they dont
I would not recommend to stay in Altin orfe. If you wanna stay all inclusive in icmeler stay in Oylum prestige (great food, friendly staff, close to shops & the beach!!)
We stayed in the Altin Orfe in aug 08, we are used to staying in basic rooms, at the end of the day you only sleep there, however the rooms here did need a lot of updating, room was clean but bathroom was mouldy and the shower leaked that much we had to keep towels on the floor to soak up the water.
Staff were very friendly and couldnt do enough for you, they did treat the manager like royalty. I wouldnt advise anybody to stay here as it is a russian hotel, i found them to be very rude and ignorant and they treated the staff discusting.
We made the best of a bad situation but definatly will not be going back
This hotel has the potential to provide a fantastic overall experience. However given it's current status it doesn't. What all hotel reviews don't tell you about this hotel is that the majority of it's rooms are designated to russian tourism.
The rooms are extremely basic but this is to be expected as the price for a 2 week all inclusive could be paid for a 2 week b&b. There is plenty of food which is based on Turkish cuisine plus chips - again this is not something that I could complain about because it is to be expected. There is no additional entertainment provided. Except British Joe's which you can be forgiven in thinking it is part of your hotel until you get the bill! It is seperate from the hotel even though it is attached and all it's patrons use the hotel's external toilets.
What I found to be the most disappointing about this hotel is the management. They seemed to forget that the customer was their biggest priority and have staff leave what they were doing just to ensure management were 'comfortable'. I will not be re-visiting this hotel anytime soon. I went into this hotel with an open mind as there were no reviews on this hotel. If you do stay here you need to go in with an open mind and remind yourself that you are only there to sleep
Our holiday was a holiday from hell and we are trying to claim back our money at the moment
Ic,meler is a lovely resort and has very little traffic.As disabled people we found it very easy to get around as it is very flat. The shopping facilities are excellent and the people very friendly. There are some fantastic restaurants with a wide selection and exceptionally reasonable prices. To name just a couple the EPESUS offers a very good English breakfast at an amazingly low price and the selection for other meals is very good. They also do a very good english sunday roast. The other I would like to mention is the Villa that has a rather good choice of menu too. Both the restaurants have good staff who are very friendly.

I found these beautiful yet scary images by Studio Lindfors of NYC and Tokyo after a (fictional) catastrophic flood. At first they seem whimsical and silly—would humanity really let climate change get so out of control that we would need to ride gondolas through Times Square? But then again, we've barely recognized what's happening and are just beginning to try and tackle the problem…..
Hopefully it will never come to this!

Yamaha QY700 Sequencer
The QY700 is a high-end Sequencer Workstation released in the mid to late '90's. It's an all-in-one sequencer with a built-in synthesizer, effects, MIDI and tons of memory! The QY700 makes an excellent alternative to computer-based MIDI studios; the QY700 has the power to be the heart of your MIDI studio. Of course such boxes as the Yamaha RS-7000 have come along since the introduction of the QY700 that add more features and capabilities. But the QY700 is nostalgic and still powerful enough to hold up to today's standards!
At it's core, it is a programmable MIDI sequencer. It can store up to 110,000 notes, 48 Tracks (32 Linear, 16 Pattern) and 20 Songs. A built-in 3.5 inch disk drive provides external storage. The sequencer has 64 notes of polyphony which is usually more than enough. The sequencer allows recording in Step, Punch-In, and Realtime with overdubbing features. The tempo can range from 5 to 300 bpm and the Conductor Track is very flexible. Thankfully a fairly large 320 x 240 backlit LCD screen makes entry and editing very easy to see and use.
In addition to controlling your synths via MIDI, the QY700 has it's own Yamaha synth engine inside. Using AWM2 - Advanced Wave Memory - as well as Yamaha's XG format and good old General MIDI sounds, the QY700 has an ample selection of quality digital sounds ready to use! You get nearly 4,000 drums, bass, guitar, and synth sounds. There's even a library of Phrases like intro, fill and ending patterns that you can use. These phrases are highly tweakable and can be made all your own. There's also Chord memory and plenty of built-in effects to use on the internal sounds as well. The QY700 even has a pseudo 2-octave keyboard and assignable mini Pitch/Mod wheels, and programmable foot switches for start, stop, fill, etc. Additional MIDI I/O's and outputs would have been nice, but it's still a capable and musical sequencer.

I agree with that, though i would have loved the bracers.
Since i got the chest, is it still worth coining sha?
I agree with that, though i would have loved the bracers.

Oh wait - I replied thinking you meant tier chest. I would probably still coin since the Ordos chest is pretty meh. If you don't have your 4P yet, doesn't hurt working your way towards it. That said, if you're debating over using your last coin on Sha or one of the other bosses, I would probably pick the latter.

Reviving the thread again :S
Here is my char http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/characte...ytank/advanced
I was wondering how to go about working on gemming/reforges/enchants. I have been using AMR's default prot paladin build (pve : control/haste one) . Should I change the weights to add more haste?
Also, is the T16 2 set worth going for? Imo it isnt, but I cant judge for sure. I think the 4pc would be good for more SotR uptime, but again, not sure. Any help?
I wouldn't go for JC stam gems in the first place (even more so when socket bonuses are str). Just put haste ones, your health pool is already fine.
This can be the same for exp/haste gems. Depending your personal feelings, dropping some exp for haste can be nice.
But I can see that you do not have so much haste items so maybe your set up is a fine compromise already.
About AMR I only swap places mastery and crit, and use it for reforges only. In the end you can still decide to "force" a reforge and it calculates the rest for you.
T16-2pc is average I'd say. I consider it as added to your other passives heals as I practically use DP on cd (when relevant). With all benefits and drawbacks passives heals bring.
Although the 4pc is something you have to try. Some like it, some don't but I for one like it and wouldn't swap it for off set pieces.
I recently swapped to 4P and it's been pretty great. I replaced HWF gear for normal tier in some slots, and the slight loss in haste really doesn't feel that bad (went from haste cap to about 20.8k haste). Being able to cast EF AND ShoR is just golden (and to answer OP - yes, it is better for more ShoR time. Roughly 6 HP a minute).
The only bad thing about the 4P IMO is that come WoD...I'll have to get used to playing without it again. Not sure why I held off on trying the 4P for so long.

Okay , first of all , get rid of those stamina gems , you won't benefit from them, well you will, but not as much as haste. Also you have way too many exp/haste gems for some reason. Don't know why/how but it kills your haste. I mean I have %38 haste on my horde paladin with 540 item level. Should be because of your gear optimization.
And yes, defo get 4 set , you won't have to spend HP on EF with that , DP makes it even better.
Your legs for example, you could reforge mastery>exp and add 3-4 haste gems to other slots instead of exp/haste.
Well, so far i've just been hitting amr and implementing what it suggests. And i havent really thought anything was wrong except for the sugestion of stamina gems so i figured who cares. But since i've been getting better gear pieces, i thought i'd make the weight of gaste to stamina 5:1 and i get 41% haste (amr's default haste to stam weight is 1.12 to 1 if i read correct) so i wanted to ask. Ofc hit and exp caps are most important so i should keep them. However, upon adding new weights, amr suggested changing cloak enchant to 180 hit. In its favor, it suggested the haste jc gems and lot of 320 haste gems as well. So i guess i wanted to ask if he change is worth it because i will soon be killing garrosh and trying hcs with my friends and want to be ready
Also about 2pc, isnt the heal redundant because it applies after the damage is taken? Or is it worth it because it smooths the job of your healers?
Well , 2pc is really good on some fights, like Malkorok after you solo soak for example (can't think of anything else atm) But, imo 4pc is like a must , not like you can't do it without it, but it helps both your survival and DPS so much more. So if I were you, i'd try to get 4pc as soon as possible :P
And really, get rid of those stamina gems already!
Well, i'll try to get some tier token soon. Generally the 2pc isnt tat worth us whati unferstand, so i dont need to swap out till i get the 4pc?
Also, should i do my reforging through amr using custom stat weights or do it some other way(like amr suggesting the 180 hit enchant is good enough?)? I could do it myself but dont want to spend my game time doing maths :P
And yeah, regemming when i next log on. Hope i have enough gems to craft ;P
Even at it's worst, the HoT from your 2P can give you an additional ~10% healing done (at least in my experience). While a majority of it may go into overheals, it's definitely not horrible if you're using pieces like Helm/Gloves which come with nice itemization to begin with.
As for stat weights...found a thread on Maintankadin that goes over it. I personally don't use AMR so I can't vouch for the info, but it's Theck so...
That thread is in jan 2013. Would it still be applicable?
I would imagine so. I can't think of any major changes that happened in the past two months that would affect stat weights.
Never mind, I'm all kinds of dumb right now
Actually those weight are acceptable for 25H undergeared progression. Personally I go with (AMR weights):
hit - 1.02
exp (to 7.5%) - 1.01
haste (to 20260) - 1
exp (7.5%-15%) - 0.75
mast - 0.65
armor/stam/str - 0.4
crit - 0.3
parry/dodge/haste(>20260) - 0.1
Most of top pallys swap crit and mast though.
One thing about AMR is that I never let it do enchant/gemms for me, only reforges.
Personally I use both when needed, to decide what will be best.
As example I'll always want to have exp/hit caps then the more haste possible at whatever the cost of secondary stats. After that depends what room still left.
