I love wandering around, exploring and taking shots that give a sense of what it's like to be in a place - especially cities but I know I've got a long way to go before I'd call myself a bonefide Street Photographer.
To meet people, swap ideas and improve my photography.
Exmouth Market's quite cool, Leather Lane market is nearby too.
Hi, I'm an aspiring street photographer and would love to meet up with people and gain some more experience in that area.
I enjoyed it and will definitely come along to another meetup.

Dear Diary,
When I was growing up in Japan my mother always told me "When you get to America someday have a GI get you pregnant". When I arrived here for my exchange program I immediately began to follow her advice. After a few weeks of passing by the VA I spotted my target and put my plan into action. I stalked him to a bus stop and I made my move. This GI couldn't keep his eyes off my body and soon we headed back to his place for a drink before dinner. Naturally we ended up in the bedroom and I rocked GI boys socks off. I rode his cock harder and harder til he exploded inside me. Of course I forgot to mention I wasn't on the pill.

Many car owners believe that so long as their vehicle isn't showing any significant symptoms of a problem, then there's really no need to bring it to the shop. And while this thinking might hold true with a car that has low miles, once your vehicle hits that 100,000 mark, it's important that you get in for a tune-up every 10,000 to 20,000 miles. It's easy for us to forget just how much stress we put our cars through, but even if you use your vehicle only to commute between work and home, the odometer continues to turn. You car is filled with a wealth of parts that fit intricately together, and for those parts to continue doing their job well into the future, it's important that they receive the appropriate maintenance, especially after you mileage count hits six figures.
It's easy to procrastinate bringing your car into the shop for a tune-up, particularly when it's not showing signs of a problem. But a tune-up can catch issues before they grow into full-blown, expensive nightmares. Aside from saving you from any potential major repair hazards, a tune-up can also be beneficial by improving your car's overall performance. There are a number of red flags that could mean it's time for a tune-up. Here are five of them:
Decreased fuel-efficiency
This could mean that you have failing spark plugs or are in need of a filter change. Both of these issues can be taken care of with ease during a tune-up.
This could be happening for a number of reasons. One possibility, again, could be the spark plugs. If your car has been stalling, you'll want to take note of the situation that seems to be causing it, and then tell your mechanic about it.
Difficulty starting
If your vehicle doesn't seem to want to start up, one possibility is it needs an ignition adjustment, which can be taken care of during a tune-up.
There are a handful of reasons why your car could be vibrating. Two possible culprits include a failing U-joint and unbalanced tires.
Mileage points
As noted earlier, after 100,000 miles you'll want to get in every 10,000-20,000. However, it's a good idea to consult your manufacturer's recommendations to seek more specific guidelines.
If you're considering getting in for a tune-up, be sure you visit a trusted shop. For tune-ups in the Olympia area, the experts to contact are at Kohout's Automotive at (360) 383-5307. Go ahead and give Kohout's a call today!

So, I'm headed back to Old Kinderhook this weekend, and I'm planning on doing a bit more First Person Video if the weather cooperates, so expect more another video post soon afterward. I haven't had much time to do any development due to wedding planning, bachelor partying, float tripping, and wedding attending. I've scoped out a bunch of new places in Cedar Rapids where I'd like to do some 'longer range testing'. We'll see how it goes.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do any flying as we were REALLY busy getting the house ready for the upcoming wedding. We'll see if I can't get some flying done on the Sunday/Monday after the wedding. (October 4th!)

A UN General Assembly committee has condemned Syria and Iran for widespread human rights abuses, but both Damascus and Tehran dismissed the separate votes as politically motivated.
The draft resolution on Syria, which was co-sponsored by Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the United States, Britain, France and other Arab and Western states, received 132 votes in favour - 10 more than a similar resolution last year received - along with 12 against and 35 abstentions.
The resolution on Iran, which was drafted by Canada and co-sponsored by other Western countries, received 83 votes in favour, 31 against and 68 abstentions.
The increased number of yes votes for both resolutions shows waning support for Tehran and Damascus in New York, envoys said.
Both resolutions were passed by the 193-nation assembly's Third Committee, which focuses on human rights, and will be put to formal votes next month at plenary sessions of the General Assembly. They are both expected to pass with similar margins.
Syrian UN Ambassador Bashar Ja'afari dismissed the resolution against his country as an attempt by "Western states to interfere, and we condemn this."
He also accused Qatar, which has supported the rebels seeking to toppled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the 20-month-old insurgency, of aiding and abetting Israel against the Palestinians.
Ja'afari repeated Syria's oft-stated accusation that Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Libya and Turkey have been arming and financially supporting the rebels, an allegation all have denied.
Western diplomats in New York, however, say privately that the Saudis and Qataris are almost certainly aiding the rebels, and possibly other countries as well.
Iranian Ambassador Mohammad Khazaee dismissed the resolution against Tehran as based on unconfirmed allegations and an attempt to meddle in the internal affairs of Iran.
The Syria resolution said the UN assembly "strongly condemns the continued widespread and systematic gross violations of human rights and fundamental freedoms by the Syrian authorities and the Government-controlled 'shabiha' militia."
It blamed the Syrian government and allied forces for "the use of heavy weapons, aerial bombardments and force against civilians, massacres, arbitrary executions, extrajudicial killings, the killing and persecution of protesters, human rights defenders and journalists, (and) arbitrary detention."
It also condemned "any human rights abuses by armed opposition groups," though the principal target of condemnation was clearly the government, not the rebels.
The resolution recalled UN human rights chief Navi Pillay's repeated suggestion that "crimes against humanity are likely to have been committed" in Syria. It called for "accountability" for those guilty of human rights abuses.
The resolution on Iran voiced "deep concern at serious ongoing and recurring human rights violations in the Islamic Republic of Iran relating to, inter alia, torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, including flogging and amputations."
It also criticized the "continuing alarming high frequency of the carrying-out of the death penalty (in Iran) in the absence of internationally recognized safeguards, including an increase in the number of public executions."
The resolution also condemned the "increased persecution and human rights violations against persons belonging to unrecognised religious minorities, particularly members of the Baha'i faith and their defenders."
The UN special rapporteur for Iran said last month that members of the Baha'i community were the most persecuted Iranian religious minority.
Such resolutions on Iran, North Korea and Myanmar - and, since last year, Syria - have become an annual ritual.
The resolution on Iran received more yes votes than a year ago, when a similar text was approved with 80 in favour, 44 against and 57 abstentions.
Last year's Syria resolution received 122 votes in favour, 13 against and 41 abstentions.
Earlier on Tuesday the committee adopted a resolution that condemned human rights abuses in North Korea.

Proof66 Notes
Byejoe (a name we assume is a play on the English phonetic pronunciation of baijiu) is spirit that they describe as "refined in the west using revolutionary patented technology" using ultradound to reduce impurities. Baijiu, similar to vodka, can be distilled from several different grains or rice... in the case of Byejoe red, it is distilled from a base of 100% red sorghum--a traditional grain for baijiu--and bottled at 80 proof (also highly typical of vodka).

15 in 2015: Trendspotting with Josiane Feigon
Jan 12th, 2015 by barbgiamanco
As we kick off 2015, I spend time reading about what's trending from various experts in sales. In this episode, I talk with Josiane Feigon of Tele-Smart Communications about her predictions for Inside Sales in 2015. In her tenth year producing her trends report, Josiane has been amazingly accurate, and I think this year will undoubtedly be the same.
In my conversation with Josiane, we talked about:
- What's next for the "what's next" generation and what that means for sales leaders.
- What Millennials care about and why you should too.
- Who's got the decision making power today, and it may not be who you think.
- Why talking head training is so yesterday and what works better instead.
- The reasons why inside sales is hot.
And more...

Tempe Music Fest Canceled
There will be no 2010 Tempe Music Festival.
Entertainment Solutions, the company behind Tempe Music Festival, is planning to pull the plug on the long-running but still shaky Spring music festival at Tempe Beach Park -- at least for this year.
No lineup had been announced for the event, which is scheduled for April 9 and 10, which was odd enough that I e-mailed a publicist a few weeks back. I was told it was coming soon, and had heard rmors Friday would be a "country" night. A person who answered the phone at ES, the company that runs the show, confirmed that it will be postponed until 2011. We're trying to reach the Koziol brothers, who run the company, and we'll have more information as it comes in.
In the meantime it's worth asking if anyone really believes the festival will return in 2011 and what should be done about the Train Tracks finale, which is affiliated with the festival...

The apartment was okay and clean.
Location advised is correct however the apartment is not at the heart of the neirbourghood or even close. 10 minutes walk from Schönefeld station. For this reason, I consider the rent is very expensive.
Ben always provided quick responses however the information was confusing. He asked me to contact Tania 5-2 days before arrival. Tania never got back to me and I contacted with Ben. He mentioned a shuttle service from the airport offered by Tania. Tania never contacted. Ben also mentioned a key code (aparently very important detail), I am still wondering what was that key code for, apart from made us really confused about If we were at the right place, where "key codes" didn't exist, only the names of the bells. The name of our bell was supposed to be Hönicke but it was not there. Really confusing situation. Finally, a member of the cleaning crew (who was cleanning other apartments) saw us on the street and gave us the KEYS to acces the building where we finally could see the name of the bell "Hönicke".
Apart from the arrival we had an amazing time in Berlin. Absolutely in love with the city.
Great location, and the flat was very clean with everything you need for a short stay. Communication was fast and easy.
Sehr net und ruhig appartment. In a alternative neigbourhood with manny places for a good breakfast or dinner. Close to a park for a picknick.
Alles fabelhaft! Had a great stay and enjoyed a lot being in that lovely apt! Thanks
Really good place...totally recommendable
A great apartment, even nicer than on the pictures, on a good location, near the subway and a bakery.
We had a very good time and surely recommend this apartment for a pleasant stay in Berlin.
Spacious apartment - Great location close to main train station. Very calm. Good contact to obtain all necessary information.
A truly wonderful apartment. I cannot recommend this highly enough. So quiet and centrally located from the metro station. I loved coming back to the apartment each night. It was a perfect home from home. Modern and roomy and very well designed. I will only stay here again when I next come to Berlin. Thank you Ben and Tanja. Iqbal
The stay was pleasant. The best the breadth of the apartment, location and cleanliness. The worst, the bathroom, mending, not intended for 7 people, very uncomfortable and the shower is so small, that does not allow leave teeth brushed. In terms of services: you did not answer when asking if there was a location close to leave luggage ...
Great apartment in a really nice neighbourhood, easy arrival by train from Schoenefeld airport and very good transport links for sightseeing. Spacious living room and hallway, really high ceilings and well-chosen decoration and furnishings. Berlin was very cold whilst we were there but the apartment was beautifully warm. Coffee shop opposite is excellent - breakfast on Sundays there is great too. Plenty of choice of places to eat and drink nearby too - restaurants and bar within 100 metres. Booking, arrival and checkout all very smooth. Thanks for a great stay!

1. Field of the Invention
This invention is generally directed to powered small personal watercraft such as water sleds or jet skis and more particularly to a protective liner which may be secured in spaced relationship with respect to an existing hull so as to form a protective liner for the hull of a type that substantially covers the bow, bottom and side portions of the hull in such a manner as to not adversely affect the planing characteristics of the hull when the watercraft is in use. The protective liner is a molded one piece plastic shell which in the preferred embodiment may further include stern wall portions which are selectively engagable with the stern wall of the watercraft and through which openings are provided to permit drainage of fluid from the space between the protective liner and the hull of the watercraft.
2. History of the Related Art
The popularity and use of individualized watercraft such as jet sleds or jet skis is ever increasing especially as such craft are generally low cost and easily transportable from one location to another. Further, such watercraft do not require specialized launching facilities and therefore such craft may be utilized in areas where other types of watercraft cannot be suitably launched. Further, with the advent of jet propulsion system which do not utilize an types of mechanical props it is possible to launch or dock such vehicles directly onto the bank or the shore along a given body of water as there is no mechanical obstruction which can be damaged by the watercraft planing onto a solid surface. However, due to the natural tendency to launch such vehicles directly from the shoreline, damage frequently occurs to the hull of the boat by the hull striking rocks, branches or other debris along the shoreline.
In view of the foregoing, many jet ski enthusiasts find that they must frequently have the hulls of such watercraft patched or repaired. During maintenance processes it is important to ensure that the repair to the hull is accomplished in such a manner that the outline of the hull or its true outer skin configuration is not adversely affected. If repairs are made which result in protrusion or uneven surface characteristics along the outer surface of the hull then the planing action of the hull will be adversely affected thereby modifying the maneuverability of the jet ski when in use. Further, in many instances where repair is necessary, after a plug or patch has been made the hull must thereafter be repainted in order to maintain not only the aesthetic characteristics of the hull shape and design but also to seal any plugs or patches. In view of the foregoing, the cost of repairs may be significant and the time for accomplishing the repairs may mean the unavailability of the watercraft for an extended period of time.
In the past there have been a number of innovations proposed for protecting the hulls of different types of watercraft. Due to the size of hulls of even small watercraft, including conventional motor boats and the like, concern has been primarily directed to protecting only small portions of the boat hull. In U.S. Pat. No. 3,220,026 to Lichti, a hull protector is disclosed which includes a clear plastic shield which is directly adhesively secured to the bow portion of the hull in the area of the keel. With this structure the forward portion or bow portion of the hull is provided with an additional covering layer for protecting the bow portion against impacting objects both in the water and objects encountered when the boat is being landed or loaded upon a trailering vehicle. Such structure, however, does not provide adequate protection for the remaining portion of the hull, and further, due to the size of the hull such protection would probably be impractical and economically prohibitive. Further, due to the numerous shapes of hulls of existing small boats, providing separately moldable protective coverings for each bow component would not be practical.
Another protective device for the keel portion of the bow of a boat hull is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,909,172 to Hamby. This patent discloses the use of an elongated strip of flexible resilient solid material which is adhered by adhesive strips to the keel portion of the bow. The resilient material is provided only along a portion of the length of the keel at the bow of the hull and extends for a short distance on either side of the keel. The material is provided only to protect the keel from impacting objects and does not otherwise provide a cover for or protect other portions of the hull.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,892,055 to Schad discloses a reinforcement for watercraft wherein the bottom portion of the hull is provided with both a primary and a secondary skin or layer. The secondary skin is provided as a removable protective layer which is keyed into specially designed T-shaped slots formed in the primary skin. In this manner, the secondary skin may be removed in the event of wear or damage and replaced. Unfortunately, with such a structure the bottom of the hull must be specifically shaped so as to provide a mechanical interlock for the secondary skin. Such a structure would not be possible for most watercraft as the configuration of the bottom of the hull would not be conducive to allow mechanical interlocking. Further, such mechanical interlocking can adversely affect the planing characteristics of the hull in the water.
Another type of mechanically interlocked protective layer for small watercraft, including water skis, is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,667,619 to Nishida. In this patent a flexible bottom wall protector is disclosed which is designed to be interfitted within specially designed slots formed in the bottom of the hull of the watercraft. The hull protector extends from the bow to the stern of the boat but only along a centralized portion of the bottom. Further, the protective liner must be interfitted within a tongue and groove arrangement and is seated against the primary hull without any space being created therebetween. With this type of structure the hull of the boat must be specifically designed to accept the outer protective layer s that the outer protective layer actually forms or creates the planing surface of the hull. Therefore, if the protective layer is removed the total planing characteristics of the hull are changed to a degree which would not be suitable for normal use. Thus, it is likely that the protective layer must always be present on the hull when the vehicle is in use and therefore the purchaser must acquire the protective liner when the water vehicle is initially purchased.
Additional patents of interest include U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,697,762 to Arney and 4,739,723 to Plucknett.
This invention is directed to a protective liner for use with small watercraft, and particularly jet skis, wherein the hull of the jet ski includes a bow, bottom, opposite side walls and stern wall, each of which includes an outer surface having a particular configuration or shape and wherein the protective liner includes a shell having a generally concave inner surface and convex outer surface with the outer surface having a configuration which is the same as that of the existing hull so that when the shell is adhesively secured in spaced relationship with respect to the hull, the planing characteristics of the vehicle will be identical to that of the vehicle without the protective liner being applied thereto. With the invention, the shell forming the protective liner includes a bow wall, bottom wall and opposite side walls which are adhesively secured by strips of adhesive tape which are utilized to space the shell in close proximity to the existing hull so that fluid may pass between the shell and the hull. In the preferred embodiment, the stern portion of the bottom wall is bifurcated so as to permit the liner to be applied on either side of the opening provided in the hull of the jet ski for the propulsion system and the shell further includes upwardly extending flanges which are adhesively secured to the stern of the hull of the watercraft. To further facilitate the passage of fluid between the hull and the protective liner openings may be provided in the rear flanges of the shell.
In addition to the foregoing, the adhesive tape is preferably a double sided acrylic foam tape which is impregnated with adhesive and which is utilized to space the protective liner at a distance not to exceed approximately 1.0-1.5 mm from the hull with the strips of tape being applied between the shell and the hull in such a manner that fluid flow there between is not obstructed.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a protective liner for small watercraft and especially jet skis wherein the liner may be applied to a jet ski to cover substantially the entire bow, bottom and side wall portions of the hull thereby giving the hull an entirely new appearance while simultaneously providing a protective cover for portions of the hull which may have been previously damaged or to protect against future damage.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a protective liner for jet skis and the like wherein damage to a hull may be easily prepared with the damaged portion of the hull being covered simultaneously with the remaining portion of the hull with a protective shell which substantially completely covers the bow, side wall and bottom portion of the existing hull in such a manner that the planing characteristics of the hull remain the same as they were with the original hull configuration.
It is also a object of the present invention to provide a protective liner for use in covering the hulls of jet skis and the like wherein the protective liner is specifically designed to be secured to the existing hull by adhesive strips which create a positive air space between the liner and the hull so that fluid, including water, may easily pass there between whereby buildup of any moisture between the hull and the liner is effectively prevented when the vehicle is not in use but which permits water to enter the air space during vehicle use so that the water acts as a damper to absorb shocks to the hull and liner.
It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a one piece molded protective liner for covering a substantial portion of the hull of a watercraft such as a jet ski wherein the liner may be applied to existing jet skis without modification to the hull of such a watercraft.

FIG. 4 is a right side elevational view of the protective liner of the present invention.
FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view of the protective liner of the present invention.
FIG. 6 is a front elevational view of the protective liner of the present invention.
FIG. 7 is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along line 7--7 of FIG. 4 with a jet ski shown in dotted line.
With continued reference to the drawings, the protective liner of the present invention includes a shell 10 having an interior concave surface 11 and exterior generally convex surface 12. The shell is designed to be cooperatively secured in covering or overlaying relationship with respect to the existing hull H of a small watercraft such as a jet ski J.
The hull of the watercraft includes a bow portion 13, bottom wall 14, a pair of side walls 15 and a stern wall 16. The jet ski is normally powered by a propulsion unit which is open to the water through an opening 17 through the bottom 14 adjacent the stern 16 of the hull. In some instances the hull of the jet ski may also include auxiliary bilge openings 18 through which water may be discharged from the vehicle.
It should be noted that the shell 10 of the present invention will vary in overall configuration depending upon the exact shape of the hull to which the shell is to be applied. As noted in the drawing figures, the hulls associated with conventional watercraft such as jet skis will have different configurations depending upon the manufacturer. However, each hull will probably include a plurality of stem to stern oriented ridges such as shown at 19-21, which are generally equally spaced on either side of the center line of the bow and which are provided for developing a particular planing action of the hull through the water.
As previously discussed, the protective liner of the present invention is designed to substantially cover the entire bow, bottom and side wall portions (13, 14 and 15 of the jet ski J). To this end the shell includes a bow wall 22, bottom wall 23 and opposite side walls 24. In order to exactly conform the shape of the shell to the shape of the hull H compatible ridges 19', 20' and 21' are provided on opposite sides of the center line of the shell, as shown in FIG. 1. The stern portion of the bottom wall 23 is also shown as being bifurcated so as to create a key shaped opening 25 through which the jet propulsion opening 17 is exposed. In the preferred embodiment, the shell also includes a pair of upstanding flanges 26 and 27 which are designed to be secured to the stern wall 16 of the hull. To facilitate the passage of fluid, both air and water, from between the shell 10 and the hull H at least one opening 28 is provided through each of the flange portions 26 and 27.
With particular reference to FIGS. 3-7, the shell 10 is secured to the existing hull by the use of adhesive tape which is preferably a double sided adhesive tape manufactured of an acrylic foam impregnated with an adhesive material. Such a tape is manufactured under the trademark of SCOTCH BRAND VHB sold by 3M Corporation. The tape provides a physical spacer so that the shell 10 when adhered to the hull H is spaced in relationship thereto so that fluid may pass between the shell and the hull as is clearly shown in FIG. 7. The strips of adhesive tape are designated at 30 and they are applied between the hull so as to be in spaced relationship with respect to one another so that the tape does not interfere with the flow of fluid between the hull and the shell. The tape provides air spaces 31 between the shell and the hull with such air spaces having a dimension generally equal to between 1.0-1.5 mm and preferably 1.1 mm. The adhesive tape is provided along the bow and stern portions of the shell and along the uppermost edges of the sides 24, along the intermediate height of the sides 24 and along at least two spaced lines along the bottom wall 23 of the shell. Additional tap is provided adjacent the key opening 25 and around a supplemental opening 32 provided through the shell which opening will overlie the bilge opening 18 into the hull H of the jet ski J.
After the protective liner has been applied and when the jet ski is in use, water is permitted to enter into the air spaces 31 and thereby acts as a damper to absorb shocks to the liner and hull. When the jet ski is not in use, the water between the liner and hull will freely drain and thereby prevent moisture buildup within the air spaces.
As previously discussed, it is preferred that the shell be molded in a single piece so that it may be easily applied in a very short time to the existing hull of a jet ski. The shell is preferably molded approximately 1/8 thick of an ABS plastic material, although other types of plastic may be utilized. It is important to ensure that the type of material from which the shell is made is durable due to the wear and tear which normally occurs through the use of the jet ski.
The protective liner of the present invention is specifically designed to be utilized to cover the existing hull H of a jet ski J after there has been significant wear and perhaps structural damage to the existing hull. In some cases, individuals may desire to renew the aesthetic appearance of the hull of the jet ski and in others, repair work may be necessary to the hull. In either case, once the hull has been repaired by patching any cracks or holes or other structural damage the two sided adhesive tape is applied either to the interior surface of the shell 10 or to the exterior surface of the hull. The tape is applied so that an air space is created along the entire length of the hull so that any water may freely pass between the protective liner and the hull to thereby avoid accumulation or buildup of moisture in the space therebetween when the jet ski is not in use.
After the tape has been applied to one or the other of the hull or the protective shell, the outer protective covering of the tape is removed and thereafter the shell mounted to the hull in such a manner that the shell assumes the outer configuration or shape of the existing hull so that the planing characteristics of the watercraft are not altered.

There Ramen is perfect. From there noodles to there broth..Order a custom ramen called char siu ramen..Its basically there bbq pork in the ramen which is very typical Japanese. Pork buns are delicious.
Lovely staff, very helpful..
The food is nothing special. Service is cordial but not very professional. The place looks decent but is a bit out of the way... so if you are nearby is OK but not worth a trip there.
The menu looks interesting but the food is nothing special. The rice was over cooked and sticking to a level that had to...
A great find in Miami. The sushi was delicious. Had the Shabu shabu dinner which came with saki, fried sushi appetizer and dessert.
The shabu shabu was a unique experience...delicious thin meat cooked in a broth. The side of kimchi was delicious. Loved it. A lot of fun
The fruit crumble for dessert was served right out of the oven...
This is a nice spot near Design District. I loved the food they prepare.
The service was poor. Our table was not set up properly. We asked to turn off the air fan pointed at us and they did not. Annoying! They did't write the brand of of the wine in the wine list. I hate it and I had...
Good but lacks of real knowledge of Thai cuisine, bad green curry, regular phat Thai and good sushi. Requires a cheff with basics of asian cuisine. Recommend the staff to have 2 nights out one at a good sushi and one at a Thai and bring the flavors
What a lovely place! We enjoyed both a dinner and lunch here, eating outside on both occasions, and we were struck by the excellent, personalized service and terrific food. Every dish was tasty and creative (the two don't always go together), and we walked out satisfied and relaxed. Looking forward to our next trip to Miami so we can stop...
3.5 overall - The shrimp dumplings were good. The octopus wa a bit chewy. The shabu shabu was a cool experience but a bit bland. The Thai donuts were okay. The cucumber drink was pretty decent. Service was good.
This is a wonderful Japanese/Thai restaurant. I always enjoy coming here. In the cooler months there is a great dining space outdoors with a very nice atmosphere. Lunch specials are wonderful...a great variety and definitely something for everyone. I always go with the Sushi box where you are given great possibilities to build your box to your tastes. It is...
We are traveling in Miami and find this restaurant near the design district. We wanted to try ramen noodle so we entered. They do have ramen noodle yet it's $18 per bowl. This is more expensive than most of the ramen shops in New York. And they only have chicken ramen and I asked if they could change to pork...
Lovely place, either lunch or dinner.
For lunch they have a "bento option" that is very good. Loved their sushi

More Occupy Wall Street Cases Dismissed [UPDATED]
Officers and NYPD barricades guarding the Wall Street Bull on May 1st.
More than eight months after the NYPD began arresting people taking part in Occupy Wall Street demonstrations, the first of hundreds of criminal cases trickling through the court system are finally coming up for trial.
Earlier this month, we told you about the first two cases to go to trial. In both cases, the defendants were acquitted of all charges after photographic and video evidence contradicted the signed arrest reports and sworn court testimony of their arresting officers.
Two weeks later, prosecutors still have yet to secure a conviction in an Occupy-Wall-Street-protest-related case. [Update: The Manhattan District Attorney's office points out that it has won convictions in a protest case involving Occupy Wall Street: On May 4, 20 protesters, including Cornell West, were found guilty of disorderly conduct for blocking an entrance to a police station during an October demonstration against the NYPD's stop-and-frisk policy. Occupy Wall Street was among the groups that endorsed the demonstration.]
Last Wednesday, a judge threw out the case against Marni Halasa, the Occupy Wall Street "Freedom Fairy," finding that the police write-up didn't actually show a crime or a violation.

The next day, another criminal case in which video evidence on YouTube appears to contradict the police version of events was set for trial, but the case was continued because the police witness failed to show.
Yesterday Sarah Maceda-Maciel, charged with blocking traffic and failing to follow police orders on November 17th, also had her case dismissed, after the police witness again failed to show. In this instance, apparently, the officer is on maternity leave.
A second case scheduled for trial yesterday was continued. Emmet Kavanaugh and his legal team were ready, and were under the impression that the prosecutor was too. But the police witness didn't come to court, so Kavanaugh, who lives in Philadelphia, will have to come back to court in late October.
While many Occupy protesters feel vindicated by the string of victories, others see the rulings as evidence that the NYPD never made the arrests with any intention of securing convictions.
This morning marks the largest group of Occupy Wall Street cases to come to trial. Twenty-two cases, consolidated into four trials, will be heard in Jury Part 7, the special section of New York City Criminal Court created just to handle the glut of Occupy-related cases. All the charges in today's cases stem from the first instance of mass arrests used against the movement on September 24th of last year -- the same day Deputy Inspector Anthony Bologna sprayed pepper-spray in the faces of peaceful demonstrators kettled by police nets.
We'll be in court watching the trials, so check back for a report on the outcome.

DTC Quantitative Methods Regression II: Thursday 13 th March 2014
Extensions of regression (A brief consideration) The idea of Generalised Linear Models Logistic regression Cox regression (Coxs proportional hazards model) Multi-level models
Logistic regression Suppose that we are interested in a categorical outcome, such as whether or not people have any of their own (natural) teeth, rather than in an outcome that is a scale (i.e. interval-level), such as how many of their own teeth people have. Can we do something with a 0/1 dependent variable similar to what we do with a 0/1 independent variable? That is to say, can we sensibly use a dummy variable as the dependent variable in a regression analysis?
A first attempt...
A second attempt... ?
A third attempt...
A fourth and final attempt...
Modelling log odds Hence a key difference between linear regression and logistic regression is that the latter focuses on the log odds of a binary outcome rather than on the value of an interval- level variable. As can be seen below, an additive impact on the log odds of the outcome is equivalent to the multiplicative impact of an odds ratio on the odds of the outcome.
Logistic regression and odds ratios The relationship between a binary outcome such as having teeth and a binary explanatory variable, such as sex, can be quantified in terms of an odds ratio. For example: Any teethNo teeth Men1967 (87.0%) 294 (13.0%) Women1980 (79.5%) 511 (20.5%)
A gender difference... Men: 1967 (Any teeth) / 294 (No teeth) = 6.69 Women:1980 (Any teeth) / 511 (No teeth) = 3.87 The odds are 6.69 / 3.87 = 1.73 times as good for men. This is an odds ratio. If the probability of having any teeth for men is p, then the odds are p/(1-p). Note that for men: p/(1-p) = 3.87 x 1.73 and that for women: p/(1-p) = 3.87 x 1 The odds for each sex can thus be expressed as a constant multiplied by a sex- specific multiplicative factor.
The logistic regression equation If we take the logarithm of each side of the equations for either sex, we convert it from a multiplicative relationship to an additive one: log [ p/(1-p) ] = Constant + log [Multiplicative factor] If the log of the odds ratio is labelled B, and the sex variable (SEX) takes the values 1 for men and 0 for women, then log [ p/(1-p) ] = Constant + (B x SEX) This equation can be generalised to include other explanatory variables, including scales (i.e. interval-level variables) such as age (AGE). Hence log [ p/(1-p) ] = Constant + (B 1 x SEX) + (B 2 x AGE)
Applying the equation If we apply the model denoted by the equation before last (i.e. the one just including sex, not age) to the same set of data that was used to generate the sex-related odds ratio of 1.73 for the earlier cross-tabulation, we obtain B = 0.546. To convert this B (which is the log of an odds ratio) back into an odds ratios we apply the process that is the reverse of taking logs (i.e. exponentiation). In this case, Exp(B) = Exp (0.546) = 1.73, i.e. Exp(B) is equal to the odds ratio for the earlier cross-tabulation.
Multiple logistic regression If we apply the model denoted by the second equation (including age) to the same set of data that was used to generate the original sex- related odds ratio of 1.73, we obtain B 1 = 0.461 and B 2 = -0.099. To convert these Bs (which are logs of odds ratios) back into odds ratios we once again exponentiate them. In this case, Exp(B 1 ) = Exp (0.461) = 1.59 and Exp(B 2 ) = Exp (-0.099) = 0.905.
Interpreting the effects The odds ratio comparing men with women and controlling for age is thus 1.59, less than the original value of 1.73; some, but not all, of the gender difference in having (any) teeth can be accounted for in terms of age. The odds ratio of 0.905 for age corresponds to an increase in age of one year, and indicates that the odds of having any teeth decrease by more than 9% for each extra year of age (since 1 - 0.905 = 0.095 = 9.5%).
Statistical significance Note that B, B 1 and B 2 in the above all have attached significance values (p-values), which indicate whether the effect of the variable in question is statistically significant (or, more specifically, how likely it is that an effect of that magnitude would have occurred simply as a consequence of sampling error). In all three cases, p=0.000 < 0.05, so all the effects are significant, implying that there is still a significant net effect of gender once one has taken account of (controlled for) age.
Categorical variables Categorical explanatory variables can be included in logistic regressions via a series of binary variables, often referred to as dummy variables. In the following set of results from a further logistic regression, specific comparisons are made between Class IV/V (the reference category) and various other categories. A p-value corresponding to the significance of fathers class as a whole can also be produced.
Categorical variables (continued) B pExp(B) Sex.471.000 1.602 Age -.097.000.908 Fathers Class.000 None vs IV/V.504.007 1.656 I/II vs IV/V1.374.000 3.950 III NM vs IV/V1.432.000 4.187 III M vs IV/V.463.008 1.588 Constant6.132
Model fit The values of B in a logistic regression are identified by a process of Maximum Likelihood Estimation, i.e. the values chosen are those that maximise the likelihood of their having produced the observed data. The likelihood of a model with a particular set of values having produced the observed data is between 0 and 1, thus the log of the likelihood (the Log Likelihood) is a number between - and 0 (i.e. a negative number). Hence –2 Log Likelihood (or the deviance), which is often quoted alongside a logistic regression, is a positive value that can be viewed as a measure of how badly the model fits the observed data.
Model fit (continued) -2 Log LikelihoodCox & Snell Nagelkerke R SquareR Square Model 14275.592.010.017 Model 22852.000.266.446 Model 32809.993.273.457 From the above table, it can be seen that each model fits the data better than the previous one. However, since the improvement in fit might simply reflect sampling error, the change in deviance (or Likelihood Ratio chi-square value, called this because it is equivalent to a chi-square statistic), needs to be tested for significance:
Changes in model fit LR chi-squared.f.p-value (Model 0 to) Model 1 48.11 0.000 Model 1 to Model 21423.610.000 Model 2 to Model 3 42.040.000
More on model fit... All the above changes between models are thus statistically significant (p<0.05). Note that the value of 48.1 is identical to the (Likelihood Ratio version of the) chi-square statistic for the original sex/teeth cross- tabulation, which emphasises the links between logistic regression and the analysis of cross-tabulations. There is no direct equivalent to the measure of variation explained (r-squared) produced within conventional (OLS linear) regression, but various authors (such as Cox & Snell, and Nagelkerke) have developed broadly comparable measures; here, these indicate that the final model explains a substantial minority, but definitely less than half, of the variation in the possession of teeth.

Just a heads-up: I'm not where I wanted to be by now. I've lost a lot of time today because of Sun's ImageIO JPEG codec which behaves strangely. However, most of that is probably because I know less about JPEG than I thought. I guess, someone with more knowledge in this area will have to go over the adapters to improve the situation. What's left is finishing the Transcoders and the adjusting the build. The latter is a project in itself I guess because the many JARs will have to be verified if they still include everything that's necessary. I ended up creating a sources-internal-codecs directory for Batik's codecs (plus adapters) instead of putting them into sources-1.3, because even with JDK 1.4 you might want the codecs to be present, especially since in the beginning the ImageIO adapters will provide somewhat less functionality than the old codecs. I had to realize that I have much to learn about image handling. Some help with finishing this later will be appreciated. So, another few days....
