Number systems and the rules for combining numbers can be daunting. This unit will help you to understand the detail of rational and real numbers, complex numbers and integers. You will also be introduced to modular arithmetic and the concept of a relation between elements of a set.
After studying this unit you should be able to:
- understand the arithmetical properties of the rational and real numbers;
- understand the definition of a complex number;
- perform arithmetical operations with complex numbers;
- represent complex numbers as points in the complex plane;
- determine the polar form of a complex number;
- use de Moivre's Theorem to find the nth roots of a complex number and to find some trigonometric identities;
- understand the definition of ez, where z is a complex variable;
- explain the terms modular addition and modular multiplication;
- use Euclid's Algorithm to find multiplicative inverses in modular arithmetic, where these exist;
- explain the meanings of a relation defined on a set, an equivalence relation and a partition of a set;
- determine whether a given relation defined on a given set is an equivalence relation by checking the reflexive, symmetric and transitive properties;
- understand that an equivalence relation partitions a set into equivalence classes;
- determine the equivalence classes for a given equivalence relation.

Number systems
In this unit we look at some different systems of numbers, and the rules for combining numbers in these systems. For each system we consider the question of which elements have additive and/or multiplicative inverses in the system. We look at solving certain equations in the system, such as linear, quadratic and other polynomial equations.
In Section 1 we start by revising the notation used for the rational numbers and the real numbers, and we list their arithmetical properties. You will meet other properties of these numbers in the analysis units, as the study of real functions depends on properties of the real numbers. We note that some quadratic equations with rational coefficients, such as x2 = 2, have solutions which are real but not rational.
In Section 2 we introduce the set of complex numbers. This system of numbers enables us to solve all polynomial equations, including those with no real solutions, such as x2 + 1 = 0. Just as real numbers correspond to points on the real line, so complex numbers correspond to points in a plane, known as the complex plane.
In Section 3 we look further at some properties of the integers, and introduce modular arithmetic. This will be useful in the group theory units, as some sets of numbers with the operation of modular addition or modular multiplication form groups.
In Section 4 we introduce the concept of a relation between elements of a set. This is a more general idea than that of a function, and leads us to a mathematical structure known as an equivalence relation. An equivalence relation on a set classifies elements of the set, separating them into disjoint subsets called equivalence classes.

GOP Leader Allen Resigns < T *%*%* m$ k- V l rt » w Signs of Christmas: This is the Farmingdale downtown scene as it looked on Tuesday evening. ( Photo by ciai ™ studio*) Vincent Santiago ( 1), of 113 Intervale Avenue, South Farmingdale, received the Cadet of the Year Award at ceremonies last Friday on the occasion of the PBC Nautical Cadets Fifth Annual Parents Night at Parkway Oaks School. Commanding Officer Carl A. Dittmeier ( center) and Regimental Captain Charles Gemuendt offer their congratulations. Eighteen youngsters also graduated from ' boots' to seamen recruits. At Monday's meeting of the Farmingdale Republican Club, Ellsworth " Doc" Allen announced his resignation as Executive Committeeman. Allen recommended that the committeemen consider the nomination of Frank J. Hynes as his successor. Hynes was elected unanimously. The committeemen thanked Allen for his untiring efforts and for his many years of hard work within the Republican party. He was praised for his ability to enhance the prestige of the Farming-dale area in the County political arena. Allen requested the committeemen to accept his resignation because of the increasingly heavy requirements of the position. He indicated that he will continue to work for the advancement of the prin-. ciples of the Republican party. Hynes, the Receiver of Taxes for the Town of Oyster Bay, was elected to office in 1963. He is a member of the Lions Club, the Emerald Association and the Boy Scouts of America. He and his wife Eileen and six children have been residents of the Town of Oyster Bay since 1943 and have lived in Farmingdale for the past five years. Choirs To Sing At Main And Conklin The Kiwanis Club of Farm-indale announced that a program of Christmas Caroling, which will include local church choirs, will take place on the corner of Main and Conklin Streets.

Washington Lighting Project A pilot street lighting project in Port Washington, erected by die Long Island Lighting Co., will be inspected by the Board of Trustees of The Incorporated Village of Farmingdale on Monday, December 21. The inspection will take the place of the regular Board Meeting. The pilot project is an example of mercury vapor lamps instead of the convenient incandescent lamps now in street lighting use in Farmingdale. The Village Board is considering improving the system of residential and business lighting in the village. The mercury vapor system is said to diffuse more light with the use of the same amount of watts. Canned Food For Needy Key Club Members Collect A collection of cans of food for the needy which will be distributed by die Nassau County Department of Welfare, is being initiated by die Key Club of Farmingdale beginning this week. The Key Club is composed of a group of students at die Farming-dale Senior High School and is sponsored by the Farmingdale Kiwanis Club.

Obesity is epidemic in America. To battle this epidemic New Hope Tea has combined forces with Arrow Concepts Design & Development company in Athens, Alabama. This is the start of a new and powerful partnership.
Fairplay, MO (PRWEB) December 30, 2012
The human body reacts to what the mind tells it to. Far to often we hear "diet" companies promote their product or program as the answer to the health issues Americans face on a daily basis, mainly obesity. The main problem is most of what they say isn't applicable to an average working man or woman who can't afford "fads" that might not work.
New Hope Tea is a dietary supplement to a healthy "decision", not a magic potion that works on everybody. While the organic nature of the New Hope Tea blends amplify the effectiveness of a healthy diet it can only work if those who need it, hear about it. To help clarify the message to masses and effect a positive change in the American consciousness New Hope Tea has enlisted the help of Arrow Concepts Design & Development in Athens, Alabama.
Arrow Concepts is a small business development firm that specializes marketing, web development and business consulting. Arrow Concepts is tasked with helping to package and promote the message so many Americans are desperate to hear, you can lose weight safely and cheaply. You do not have to spend a bunch of money on the latest product but instead just adopt a few simple steps and drink a little tea.
Watch for new (and simple) ways to incorporate New Hope Tea into your daily routine. For more information on New Hope Tea or Arrow Concepts Design & Development please visit their respective website.

If you have (or know) kids, you know what I mean.
You hear them in the store whining and pleading to their parents to purchase the latest stuffed Barney toy. If asked, a child might say he/she loves Barney more than his/her parents. Why? Because Barney never gets mad, nothing bad ever happens to Barney, yet Dad just got passed over for a promotion and Mom just lost her job. Barney sugar-coats and presents a false view of reality. Singing a happy song and forgetting the problem is Barney's way of dealing with difficult situations. Children will not be able to handle them on their own. The lasting effects of the show might last well into the teenage years. When they realize that life isn't really what Barney told them it was like, who knows what will happen? Barney also becomes a member of the family often times replacing a parent. On the show, the kids all do what Barney tells them to in perfect conformity without a hint of individual personality. There is also no clear distinction between reality and what's supposed to be in the kid's imagination. Only in the theme song is it mentioned that Barney is an imaginary character. Most of the show has an appearance of being real. At the "target" age, the kids won't know the difference. In some of the scenes, it's pretty obvious because something will appear out of thin air, or Barney will do a super-fast costume change. Many of the scenes which show children interacting with Barney, and Barney solving ... |

A man in a purple dinosaur suit who hangs out behind a little kid's school. Always talks with the kids and sings songs with them--as long as the teachers aren't around. Magically dissapears and turns into a small, doll version of himself whenever an adult--especially a policeman--approaches him. Probably was horny as kid, and god knows what he does to those poor children when his/her friends aren't around. Barney teaches children just how fun life can be.

Joplin Schools Digital Learning Day
"We have to use word to like put the document in and we're going to make websites out of it," explained Garrett.
It's a special assignment for Joplin students at Cecil-Floyd Elementary School as part of digital learning day.
"A lot of teachers maybe don't have the technology in their classrooms," says 5th grade teacher Heather Asbell. "So it's a day where you especially emphasize what technology can do in our classroom with our learning," Asbell adds.
Teachers say today's exercise was designed to promote critical thinking. They hope it will be more challenging than the everyday classroom computer lessons.
"Technology, yeah we are using it everyday but not everyone is that fortunate so what does it do for us. and we think about how it encourages our collaboration, because one computer for every two students," says Asbell. "We are thinking critically, we are finding resources," she adds.
Resources that students of this up and coming digital generation say enhance their learning process.
"It makes it more fun than just learning out of a social studies text book because who has time for that," asks Garrett?
"In high school since we will get laptops, we will probably from 5th grade already know how to use some of the things and since we have computers it will help us a lot," explains fifth grade student Alyvia Jackson
And after overseeing the production of several websites created by dozens of eager students, teachers say it was well worth the extra effort.
"I definitely encourage everybody to participate in digital learning day," says Asbell. "I feel like anything that you can do to help those kids to prepare for their future, which is going to be digital in some fashion, will just be a huge betterment for them," she explains.
Digital Learning Day was introduced by The Alliance for Excellent Education in 2012.

NEW BOSTON — After nearly 100 years, New Boston High School closed its doors this year in anticipation of the new K-12 school building expected to open for the new school year. With the old school, the community also said goodbye to the Tiger Den basketball court where many have played. Former teacher and coach Steve Jenkins has now published a book with his son Scott Jenkins remembering the history of Tiger basketball.
The idea for the book, titled "Tiger Pride: The Story of Glenwood Basketball and 88 years of Basketball in the Tiger Den," came on the night of the last basketball game played in the high school gymnasium.
"There was a full house and everybody was asking questions about how long the gym has been here, when did the play, how many championships; all these questions, but nobody really had the answers. We said it was a shame that nobody knows this stuff, so we decided to write something about the history of New Boston basketball," Steve Jenkins said.
The book features a pictorial history of New Boston high school basketball, going back to the 1920s. It features line-ups, photos, notes, newspaper clippings, and more recordings of Tiger history.
"I had a lot of stuff on-hand, but for a lot of this — I have read almost every sports page from the Portsmouth Daily Times from about 1923 to present on microfilm at the library. I think I spent about 250 hours just researching and going through the microfilm to get the records, the scores, the teams, and if they had any photos in the paper. And I went through every year book that I could find," Jenkins said.
The gymnasium has been a special part of Jenkins' life and family for as long as he can remember. He grew up in the school where his father coached. Jenkins also was a coach and teacher for New Boston School for 33 years, and his own son — who co-authored the book — also coached at New Boston School.
"The gym has had a special connection for us, and I think it's one of the highlights of my life to be able to collaborate with my son writing a book about the gym," Jenkins said.
The Tigers played their very last high school game in the gymnasium on Feb. 18, 2012, defeating the East Tartans 73-63. Scott Jenkins had the honor of refereeing that game. The lights went off, and the doors were locked. Jenkins called his book a final stamp to remember the long, proud history of the Tiger Den.
"It seems like 88 years in the same gym has to be a record. I just can't believe that anybody in the state of Ohio has played more than 88 years in the same facility," Jenkins said.
The book can be purchased directly from Steve Jenkins by calling 740-456-6638, or Scott Jenkins at 740-574-1287, or the New Boston Mayor's Office at 740-456-4103. Books cost $20 each — just enough to cover the cost of publishing them, Jenkins said. The first print run of 50 copies quickly sold out; a new shipment of 50 has just arrived, and 50 more have already been ordered.
This fall, New Boston will begin a new chapter to write about as they enter their new K-12 school building on Lakeview Avenue.

Egyptian authorities said at least six people have been killed in violent clashes in recent days, while the Muslim Brotherhood -- the group that backs Morsy -- has said eight of its members were killed.
The crisis erupted in late November when Morsy issued the edict allowing himself to run the country unchecked until a new constitution was drafted, a move that sat uncomfortably with many Egyptians who said it reminded them of ousted President Hosni Mubarak's rule.
Morsy had said the powers were necessary and temporary. But that promise did little to quiet the opposition.
Anger at Morsy's move led to protesters reoccupying Tahrir Square, the scene of the Arab Spring uprising that saw Mubarak ousted in 2011. Thousands later protested outside the palace, where the opposition clashed with the Muslim Brotherhood.
The anger only grew when the Islamist-dominated Constitutional Assembly pushed through a draft despite the objections of the secular opposition, including some members who walked out in protest. Tens of thousands of protesters -- for and against Morsy -- took to the streets.
A coalition of Egyptian Islamic parties, including the Brotherhood, rejects any postponement in the constitutional referendum, the Islamic Forces Alliance announced Saturday on the Brotherhood website.
The deputy head of Muslim Brotherhood, Khairet El-Shatir, also read the Alliance's statement in a press conference.
The Alliance won't allow under any circumstance the return of the corrupt Mubarak regime. El-Shatir said. The Alliance includes 13 parties such as the Al-Nour party and the Salafist front.
The statement also warned against manipulating the will of the people by forcefully overtaking the state.
"We assure the Egyptian people that the Alliance of the Islamic Forces is very keen to preserve the security of the homeland, stopping the bloodshed," El-Shatir said.

Conn. moves cautiously on guns in Newton's wake
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A month after the Newtown school tragedy, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is moving cautiously on gun control in Connecticut, a relatively liberal Northeastern state that nevertheless has a strong gun culture and is home to some of the nation's best-known firearm makers.
Gun control advocates and their allies in the state Legislature want to pass new restrictions on weapons while passions are still high over the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting rampage Dec. 14 that left 20 children and six women dead. But they are bracing for strong opposition.
Gun owners have packed statehouse hearings in recent years to oppose measures that would tighten the state's gun laws. And gun manufacturers such as Colt Manufacturing Co., which traces its history to a Hartford factory that Samuel Colt opened in 1855, have threatened in the past to leave Connecticut, taking hundreds of jobs with them, if certain requirements became law.
Malloy, a Democrat, became choked up when he mentioned Newtown in his State of the State Address on Wednesday, saying: "Let us do everything in our power to ensure that Connecticut never again suffers such a loss, that we take real steps to make our kids and our communities safer."
He offered no specific proposals, instead noting that an advisory panel he set up last week will issue recommendations in March on gun control, mental health treatment and other issues arising from the Newtown massacre.
Betty Gallo, a lobbyist for Connecticut Against Gun Violence, said the state has an opportunity to become a national model on gun control. She said she understands the governor is taking a comprehensive look at what could prevent another tragedy, but she and others worry about opposition.
"There are people who have gun manufacturers in their town who are truly worried about constituents' jobs," Gallo said. "We expect problems with retailers and manufacturers."
In addition to West Hartford-based Colt, Connecticut is home to the gun makers Sturm, Ruger & Co. and Mossberg & Sons. None of the companies responded to requests for comment.
Also, the National Shooting Sports Foundation, a trade association, is based in Newtown, only a few miles from the scene of the Sandy Hook shooting. A spokesman, Mike Bazinet, said it is taking part in the gun control dialogue led by Vice President Joe Biden but has not gotten involved on the state level.
"If we were asked to participate in any process that has as its goal the reduction of violence and the protection of our children, we as an industry would be pleased to take part in that process," Bazinet said. Continued...
Connecticut, whose Legislature has long been controlled by Democrats, ranks among the states with the most stringent gun control laws, but proposals to make them stronger have run into strong resistance.
In 2009, a bill to require gun markings to make them easier to trace was dropped after Colt vice president Charlton Chen warned that the company would consider leaving if it became law. "Let us not make a mistake with the unintended consequences of driving businesses and jobs out of Connecticut," he said.
More recently, gun owners turned out in force at the Capitol last March to oppose legislation banning large-capacity ammunition magazines, such as those later used by gunman Adam Lanza in the Newtown massacre. The measure failed.
Robert Crook, executive director of the Coalition of Connecticut Sportsmen, said he has 35,000 members who represent a small portion of the 180,000 people with pistol permits in the state. He said 350 of them were prepared to testify last year against the bill banning large-capacity magazines.
He said school security should be a bigger priority than gun control, noting that the Newtown shooting was carried by a troubled young man who took his mother's weapons and was not a gun owner himself. But Crook added: "We're open to any rational suggestions that make common sense."
State Senate Majority Leader Martin Looney, a Republican and a longtime proponent of tougher gun laws, said he is hoping the political climate has changed since the tragedy.
"I'm hopeful that some people will recognize that not every gun regulation bill is a serious threat to the Second Amendment and that people will be a little more reasonable about accepting some reasonable regulation," he said.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo in neighboring New York is trying to put his state out front on gun control, coming out with a wide-ranging package of restrictions Wednesday in his State of the State Address.
He called for loopholes to be closed in a state ban on assault weapons and ammunition magazines that carry more than 10 bullets. The Democrat also wants to require holders of handgun licenses to undergo follow-ups to make sure they are still qualified to possess a weapon, and he is calling for increased sentences for certain gun crimes.

text: Use one art tea blossom per glass of near-boiling water. Place the blossom in the cup and then pour on the water. Drink from the same glass or decant the liquid once the blossoming has finished and the colour has started to change (usually it is ready the moment the water feels safe to drink!). Pour in new boiling water gently again to re-infuse the tea blossom.

Show your lips some love with this nourishing tint. Vitamin C boosts collagen, natural oils replenish and the honey flavor is perfect for sharing with a special friend.
Special Offer:
We Know You'll Love
Ratings Summary
Lip Love
Oh, Honey!
If you are prone to chapped, dry lips, then you need this in your life! This gloss provides a pleasant kiss of color without being obnoxious. But the real beauty is that this gloss genuinely heals your lips, it helps keep them soft, beautiful, moisturized, shiny...the list goes on and on. If you want something a little more than chapstick without giving up it's healing properties, then get this gloss. I have Stung already, and I know I'll be grabbing at least two more colors. I didn't find the honey overly strong or unappealing, and I'm not usually a huge honey fan. With fall and winter quickly approaching, you need this gloss in your beauty bag!

Impulse buy turned into LOVE!
I bought this in Stung because it was on sale...and because I needed to spend $4 more to get free shipping :P I smelled it, and it was SO strong I was scared that it would make me nauseous during the day. I couldn't be more wrong. This has a strong floral/honey smell that I find lovely in small amounts, but once you put in on your lips the smell dissipates. The taste is fantastic (you know, if you happen to get some in your mouth haha) and the color is sheer and beautiful! I use it over any and all my lipsticks and it gives them the most gorgeous, tinted and glossy look. I am buying 2 more!

Perfect for problem lips
I have awful lips. No matter what I do or how hard I try, my lips always feel extra dry and crack easily. I can't use normal chap stick or even lipstick because it eventually rubs off and only stays in the crevices. Then, I met the love of my life while getting my make up done for my Bridal's. As soon as she applied this product I felt a MAJOR difference. It was soothing and felt luxurious. I had to buy my own that very moment and I keep it with me every where I go. It adds a nice shine with out being too over powering and it stays even without feeling too "sticky" like most other lip glosses. THANK YOU, UD, FOR COMING TO MY RESCUE ON MY WEDDING DAY!

This product is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!
I have it in the shades Lolita, Drizzle, and Failbait [and I'm almost out of Lolita :( ] and I ADORE them! Lolita is my all time favorite one! These smell, taste, and look beautiful! They smell sort of like honey to me. :) These glosses look beautiful and they go on easily and give lips a subtle wash of color. They also boost collagen and plump lips. I prefer wearing them alone, not over lipstick. :D AND, you don't have to reapply the, frequently!!!!!!! I am in LOVE.
As usual, I am greatly impressed with UD products. :)
I highly recommend these products. They are well worth the money. :)
February 25, 2012
amazing product
I just recently bought this product in Drizzle. It's a really nice transparent color. It is easy to apply, it stays on for a decent amount of time, and it feels good on and isn't sticky. I read some of the other reviews and a lot of people have said that it smells really bad...so I was a bit skeptical about buying it. However, I LOVE the smell. It smells exactly like honey, so I'm not sure why so many others gave the smell a bad review.
The tube looks really small, so i was disappointed at first because it looked bigger online, but I compared it with the Lip Junkie, and it is the same amount of gloss.
Overall, I love everything about this lip gloss
June 12, 2012
terrific all the way around
I was a little skeptical after reading some of the reviews about how well this lip gloss works. After today, I am sold. I disagree with the idea that you have to keep applying this gloss. I put it on twice today and that was it. After eating with it on, my lips are definately softer than they were this morning.
The only question I have is why bother making this in so many shades when the colors are so sheer? I bought this in failbait and you can't see anything but shine.
The flavor and scent are lovely and the tube makes it easy to apply. It works well with lip stains and keeps them from drying out my lips. Overall, I would buy this again.
February 10, 2012
I was skeptical when I first saw this product. I assumed it would be sticky and thick because it is honey-infused. I bought it in Stung because I loved the color, and when I put it on I really fell in love with it. The texture is smooth without being thick, it's not sticky, but it makes my lips feel so smooth and nourished. The color in the tube looks very dark, but it is actually quite sheer. You can definitely tell when you are wearing it, but it isn't too dark to wear all the time. My lips have always been rather dry, but I have been using this every day and my lips are soft and don't peel. On the whole, a great lipgloss. I only wish it was offered in more shades...
August 27, 2011
I bought Stung while it was on sale, having never tried any Urban Decay lip products before. I'm in total love, I have bought lip glosses with honey before and they are so sticky, but this Urban Decay's gloss isn't sticky at all! It has good staying power, and even when it's no longer there, you can tell it's moisturized cause my lips are so much softer than before I put it on. Highly recommend. Don't let the dark color in the bottle fool you, it comes out as a very pretty flushed color, not dark at all.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- A third VNOT gang member has pleaded guilty to gang related crimes.
Court officials say Kenneth Jackson, 28, of Syracuse, entered a plea deal Thursday to RICO conspiracy. Jackson admitted to participating in a gang fight in October 2010 at the Juke Box Bar on North Geddes Street and using an AK-47 to shoot at both a home and a rival gang member. He also told authorities he possessed crack cocaine and drug money.
At sentencing, Jackson will face up to life in prison, a $25,000 fine and post release supervision.
A total of eleven gang members were arrested in May of this year for involvement in everything from murder to drug trafficking to witness tampering. Three of them have now entered guilty pleas.
The arrests came from a long term investigation conducted by the Syracuse Gang Violence Task Force.

When seven-term Republican Congresswoman Mary Bono Mack conceded to her Democratic challenger Raul Ruiz on Friday, she left two other members of California's GOP House delegation still trailing in tight, unsettled races.
As of Saturday, six of seven unresolved House races remain too close to call. In the seventh, two Louisiana Republicans will face off in a Dec. 8 runoff for the 3rd District seat after none of the five candidates got the required 50%.
Democrats hold narrow leads in all six of the too-close-to-call races. Should all win, they will have picked up a net gain of eight seats in the House after losing the majority in the chamber and suffering the largest loss of seats since 1948 in the 2010 midterm elections.
Going into Tuesday's elections, Republicans held a 242-193 majority in the House.
Mack took over her seat after her husband Rep. Sonny Bono was killed in a skiing accident in 1998. In a heartfelt statement conceding defeat on Friday night, she congratulated her opponent, an emergency room physician, and thanked her family.
"Today, I called Dr. Ruiz and congratulated him on his impressive victory," Mack said. "Dr. Ruiz will do a fine job if he is guided as well by the people of the congressional district as I was. Please give him the opportunity to succeed.
"It was almost 15 years ago that Sonny died and I became a congresswoman," she continued. "Honestly, nobody worked harder or gave more since then than my two amazing children. They, along with my stepson Chaz, my grandson Sonny and my beloved husband Connie have been so supportive of me this week. I simply couldn't ask for more."
Mack lost by 4% of the vote or more than 7,200 ballots out of the almost 200,000 cast in the race for 36th District. The loss marks the first in her 14-year congressional career.
Her husband, former Rep. Connie Mack IV, also lost this week in his bid for U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson's seat in Florida.
Mack, who has faced redistricting twice before, once again saw her district's lines redrawn ahead of the 2012 election by a bipartisan commission in California based on 2010 census data.

Now that it's done, the film world is left wondering, Which flick was the best? We've got more pressing questions. And answers. Read on for our very own picks for the Toronto International Film Fest's superlative winners.
Anna Karenina. No contest. Nothing beats Jacqueline Durran's 19th-century, high-society getups. Except maybe Sarah Greenwood's extravagant production design.
Read more on our Tumblr, then queue your favorites with our GoWatchIt movie channel. Heading to the theater? Check out September's must-see movies first.
Antiviral. Debut director Brandon Cronenberg (yes, that Cronenberg's spawn) gave birth to the weirdest freak fest we've seen yet. It's about addiction, and the drug is celebrity. People line up to feed upon the shadow of perfection — and by feed, we mean eat. With a fork. And a knife. Kardashian kebab, anyone?
Argo. The political thriller from director/actor Ben Affleck finds a happy balance of funny, entertaining, and serious. Expect to be holed up somewhere for a good two hours for the true story of a fake movie that saved six American hostages from the Iranian revolution.
Cloud Atlas. Three directors take on David Mitchell's 528-page novel spanning 500 years by casting dozens of high-profile actors in multiple roles each for a movie that swells to two hours and 44 minutes. Gotta give it up.
Frances Ha. Greta Gerwig and Mickey Sumner play Frances and Sophie, the hetero life mates who dance to the beat of their own creative drum in Noah Baumbach's black-and-white seriocomedy-meets-French new wave flick.
Reincarnated. Or a Dogg called kitty. In his doc, Snoop embraces his inner Rastafarian and becomes Snoop Lion as producer of his first reggae album. And it had people J-O-double-G-ing to see it.
Silver Linings Playbook. Money riding on Oscar noms? Pay attention to David O. Russell's solid gold funny drama starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence as a couple brought together via depression. Robert De Niro, Chris Tucker, and Jacki Weaver (Animal Kingdom) complete the roster.
Spring Breakers. Harmony Korine delivers a trashy and ludicrous week of debauchery you've got to see to believe. (Really. Go see it.) Lil' Hollywood (Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez) goes wild in bikinis, and a cornrowed James Franco fine-tunes Britney Spears's "Everytime," with a piano — and machine guns.
Thanks for Sharing. Mark Ruffalo leads the sex-addicted cast in Stuart Blumberg's hilarious directorial debut (you know his work; he wrote The Kids Are All Right and The Girl Next Door). Gwyneth Paltrow fleshes out the fittingly happy ending.
The Impossible. An English-language Spanish production about one family's true story of surviving the tsunami that wiped out Thailand, from The Orphanage director J.A. Bayona. His recreation of the water monster will hit you like a tidal wave — no joke.
The Master. Joaquin Phoenix felt the burn from leading the failed I'm Still Here. But with his tour-de-force performance in Paul Thomas Anderson's masterpiece, consider him risen from the ashes.
The Place Beyond the Pines. A bleach blond Ryan Gosling plays a motorcycle stuntman who robs banks to provide for his fam — a habit that acts as a catalyst for Blue Valentine director Derek Cianfrance's triple narrative.
To the Wonder showed at TIFF. Director Terrence Malick did not. Though known for brilliant, cerebral filmmaking, he's also (publicly) disdainful of public appearances. No bother; his wife said plenty on his behalf (google it).

Mini Olympians bring home gold
Mike Hamer leads his group in the bouncy ball races of the Rose K. Goedert Early Childhood Education Center's Olympics at Dominican University on Friday, August 3rd. | Dan Luedert~Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: September 10, 2012 1:26PM
RIVER FOREST — The Olympian spirit — in miniature — was much in evidence Friday when students at Dominican University's Rose K. Goedert Center for Early Childhood Education gathered for a pint-size version of the Olympic Games.
Roughly 70 kids divided into age groups on a green outside the school for events including Bean Bag Toss, Torch Relay (non-flaming variety), Tricycle Race, Paper-Plate Discus Throw, Obstacle Course and Water Relay. Each child participated in each event and each was awarded a gold medal.
"We talked to them about how important it is to practice and do your best to compete, but these guys worked so hard that they all got something for trying," said Goedert Center director Amanda Cardin. "This event was more about trying and doing your best than being specific about who came in first, second and third. That's something they learn later."
Part of the school's curriculum involves following current events, so the students have been keeping track of key developments in the London games — such as swimmer Michael Phelps' record-breaking number of career medals — and noting the performance of Illinois Olympians.
"Unfortunately, Illinois hasn't been doing too well this time," Cardin said. "No medals. But we've been putting stickers up by their names saying, 'Nice try.'"
Despite intense heat that brought the Goedert Games to an early close and occasional confusion during some of the events (the 2-year-old athletes had to be restrained from entering both sides of the obstacle course at once), Cardin proclaimed that an educational good time was had by all.
"It was fantastic," she said. "They took it so seriously, even the little guys."

Like many big cities in America, Atlanta is surrounded by a circular highway that connects with various freeway arteries that go through the downtown area. Weekday mornings and early evenings, no matter which highway you're on, or what direction you're going, you'll likely end up stuck in some hot traffic hell.
Dana Jones, 26, used to drive from the south end of the city by the airport to a northern suburb at peak commuting times, right through the daily mess.
"There were so many people out," Jones says. "You get road rage because nobody will let you in; nobody will merge right. It's just aggravating."
Despite the perils of a long commute, most people in the United States drive to work, according to the American Community Survey. In fact, more than 75 percent of Americans make the trek to work alone.
The stress of waiting in gridlock can get intense if you're in a hurry, leaving you feeling frustrated and anxious about the traffic. That stress can translate into deeper health hazards. Try to distract yourself with your smartphone, and you can put yourself and other drivers in even more danger.
Road rage: An 'emotional spin cycle'
LeeAnne Minnick was sitting in gridlocked traffic, waiting to get on an on-ramp, in a line of cars that had pulled over to let an ambulance pass. Suddenly, another driver darted out behind Minnick to tail the ambulance, taking advantage of the cars that had been moved, to enter the freeway.
"That incensed me," says Minnick, who makes a lengthy commute from Athens, Ga., to Atlanta -- about a 70-mile trip -- three days a week. "I immediately flew into a rage over it."
That happened a couple months ago, and Minnick still sounds irritated when she describes it. She doesn't act aggressively toward other drivers, but she does get bothered by disrespectful behavior on the road.
It's easy to get lost in a cycle of emotions where you're talking to yourself and ruminating about traffic situations, says Leon James, professor of psychology at the University of Hawaii and co-author of "Road Rage and Aggressive Driving."

Turr-Ralt took point, moving slowly and carefully through the forest. Slipping through the forest, he sniffed the air. The lycanthrope's scent was still in air. Not willing to take any chances, he readied his bow. Arrow up aginst the string while his heightened Lupin senses scanned the area. At the first sign of it, he would fire. The arrow was silvered, perfect for killing lycanthropes. Of course, he just had to find it first. On the entire way over, Turr didn't say much. His mind was completly focused on the task of killing the lycanthrope. A departure from his usual talkative self.

"Short Holiday"
A wonderful experience and nights sleepPatiesa Hotels.com viesa atsauksme
During our stay, we were disappointed that a three course meal was served instead of carvery meal on two evenings. This was due to the number of people in the hotel not justifying providing a carvery. Also the three course meal was more expensive than the carvery. We have been staying at this hotel since 2007, usually twice a year, and have always enjoyed […] our visits. Uzziniet vairākPatiesa Hotels.com viesa atsauksme

Hotel room was clean, and nice outlook onto the front, but I'm afraid what struck us when we first went in was the poor quality and shabbiness of the bedding.

Apart from a function taking place which was supposed to finish at 11pm but ran over until 11:40 being extremely noisy and leading to loss of sleep, everything else was really good. Food was excellent in the breakfast buffet, the Pool and amenities were also very welcome. The rooms could do with a facelift/refresh and the bathrooms/shower are quite […] outdated but we as we used the pool so much we used the changing rooms for showers so not a huge issue.

"Average - but probably the best in Blackpool"
Hotel not great for a four-star, let alone a Hilton. However, probably the best in Blackpool. Two standard rooms booked. OK for space but furniture scratched/scuffed/handles not affixed properly etc. One very flat pillow per person so requested more. Cleanliness good. No minibar/fridge in room. Disappointing no free wifi in rooms, only in lobby. Ample […] car parking in hotel car park, but again, disappointing there was a daily charge for guests. Didn't use the leisure facilities, but pool looked small. Food expensive considering the standard and where we were. Waiting staff in restaurant struggled with English. Breakfast ok, although hotel encouraged guests to avoid the queues during peak periods and attend breakfast early. My suggestion to the hotel would be to take on more staff. Reception staff helpful. Hotel was about a 10-15 min walk from the main attractions/town centre. Good sea views. Uzziniet vairākPatiesa Hotels.com viesa atsauksme

"Sort the beds out."
I was staying in Blackpool for the first time for Business with my partner. I paid a premium price with comparison with other rooms at other hotels in the area. There seemed to be an abundance of hotels when I search for Blackpool so i stuck to a name i recognised in Hilton and hoped for the best. The good bits include the friendly staff at reception […] and the superb breakfast (one of the best selection I have ever seen!). The bad bits, unfortunately include the bed in the room with which we stayed in, poor quality pillows and location. We stayed in room 423 and the bed was very noisy. Every time you would move during the night it would make a loud noise, this is infurirating when you are trying to sleep and resulted in a poor nights sleep for both myself and my partner. The pillows also are of such poor quality where you put your head in the pillow and it seems as if there is nothing in the pillow (even after getting extra pillows from the wardrobes it still meant that they were far too soft). I have stayed in Hiltons before and thought the experience wonderful, however I would probably think again before staying at another. I will be sending this to the hotel and update this review if I hear back. The only reason the location disappointed me was I was unaware having never been to Blackpool before how far we where from the main strip. it is quite a walk down to the pleasure beach and major piers.

The tram / bus link is right outside the door and buying a day tripper you can travel all day and night excellent value, especially […] if you are going to do the local area like we did.

The staff were very pleasant and helpful even when we asked for their recommendation on places to eat right after we declined the offer to dine in the restaurant. The only downside is that […] it is way past north pier and unless the weather is decent, which ours wasn't, it's a long way to places like the pleasure beach.

Onsite car parking […] but it's £5 per day, so not cheap but very convenient. Well lit car park and security cameras visible too, so looked fairly safe. Good hotel location for the 'sights', right on the front with room views straight out to sea. Blackpool is an acquired taste though!
