For business jets operating in potentially hostile areas, Sweden's Saab might soon offer some protection. The company's Avitronics division is hoping to receive EASA certification within the next eight months for its Civil Aircraft Missile Protection System (Camps). The company claims the defense system–based on countermeasures already in use on military aircraft–is the only such European system for civil aircraft.
JAS 39 Gripen
After a long-running procurement saga, the Royal Thai Air Force has selected the Saab Gripen to replace its elderly Northrop F-5 fighter fleet. The deal also covers the supply of airborne early warning aircraft to bolster the nation's air defenses.
The Pakistan air force is due to begin receiving new-build F-16s from Lockheed Martin beginning in 2009. The 18 aircraft on order–plus a major upgrade package for the nation's existing aircraft and further options–will dramatically enhance the service's capabilities and will bring to a close a controversial 20-year procurement saga.
The long-awaited competition to supply 126 new fighters to the Indian Air Force (IAF) is formally under way. The six contenders for the Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) requirement have received a formal request for proposals (RFP), and must respond by next March. The Boeing F/A-18E/F, Dassault Rafale, Eurofighter Typhoon, Lockheed Martin F-16, RSK MiG-35 and Saab Gripen will be evaluated.
All systems go! That was the message from the Lockheed Martin F-35 Joint Strike Fighter briefing at the Paris Air Show last week. The first test flights have already provided good validation of some of the aircraft's unique features. The eight international partners are all still onboard, all having signed up for the production sustainment and flight development (PSFD) phase over last winter.
As Saab celebrates its 70th birthday this year (and 50 years at the Paris Air Show), the company is on the verge of a major technology demonstration program of the Gripen NG that will ensure the viability of the JAS 39 Gripen fighter "well beyond 2040," according to Gripen International managing director Johan Lehander.
South Africa's Denel Optronics has been awarded a multi-million dollar production order for optical helmet tracker systems (HTS) to equip the Eurofighter Typhoon fighter. The deal represents the latest South African investment by BAE Systems through its Defense Industrial Participation program, which arose from South Africa's decision to modernize and right-size its air force with 24 Hawk lead-in fighter trainers and 28 Gripen fighters.
MBDA, the missile manufacturer owned by BAE Systems, EADS and Finmeccanica, has appointed Antoine Bouvier as its new chief executive. He replaces Marwan Lahoud. Bouvier was most recently chief executive officer of EADS Astrium Satellites, a post he took up in 2002, and before that he held senior positions at ATR culminating in his becoming chief executive in 1998.
As the U.S. equips its fighter aircraft with active electronically scanned array (aesa) radars, Europe's avionics industry is working hard to put similar technology into its three "Euro-canard" fighters–the Gripen, Rafale and Eurofighter Typhoon. This effort was highlighted last month by the first flight of a Typhoon with an AESA radar installed.
The Czech government has pledged $13.5 million over three years to a consortium of 16 companies to build and market a nine- to 14-seat twin turboprop dubbed the EV-55. Organized by the Czech Aviation Manufacturers' Association and led by Kunovice-based Evektor, the program would awaken a virtually inactive Czech civil aerospace industry and help regain some of the status it enjoyed during the peak of Let 410 and Zlin glider production.

"Recent studies have shown that, even though many people may hear the smoke alarm when they are awake, the sound may not wake them when sleeping," said Dr. David Albert, Chief Technology Officer and Chairman of the Board for Lifetone Technology ™. "A measure that all homeowners can take to ensure their family's security is to consider additional UL-listed safety items designed to address the safety gap. For example, the Lifetone HL Bedside Fire Alarm and Clock already features the newly required 520 Hz square-wave signal that will wake people up during a fire, and it meets rigorous UL safety standards."
Adding the Lifetone HL Bedside Fire Alarm and clock to a bedroom will not only meet fire regulation, but more importantly, ensure the safety of those sleeping there. The unique and life-saving product can be purchased at Activeforever.com.

Just What Is it with Cybermen?
Inspired by a comment by regular "Krumstets" on the news article concerning the Doctor Who/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover from IDW, we're asking readers a very important question on Kasterborous.
Which Doctor Who villain has failed to live up to its potential the most?
It's a simple question, one which you should answer honestly. The poll closes on Friday evening so there isn't much time to waste. With three options, you can choose from some of the biggest monster names in new and classic Doctor Who alike.
Feel free to leave a comment below after voting!
6 Responses to Just What Is it with Cybermen?
I had to vote for the angels. Just the fact that they through me back in time like they did (I'm actually from next Monday afternoon), shows just how much of a truly chaotic evil they can be.
Some of us say you can't go messing about with causality and whatnot, but they just don't care.
And one more thing,,,, how would any planetary inhabitants possibly deal with them?
Failing to live up to their potential? The Cybermen have gotten less scary with each incarnation and after RTD embarrassed them in Doomsday at the hands of the Daleks, they've been a joke ever since. I keep saying, the Moff should bring back the tenth Planet version. Half human and creepy as heck.
then The Master has failed to live up to his potential ever since roger Delgago passed away. A shame that Derek Jacobi wasn't playing him throughout the end of the third season instead of Simm. He was just too goofy and crazy. Finally, The Ice Warriors were never that threatening to begin with trapped in those outfits and they've never had the fortune of being redesigned and streamlined for the new show yet.
Yes, but just imagine what Derek Jacobi would like like doing that dance that Jon Sim does!
I'd have to say Cybermen – despite some wonderful grizzly moments in Rise and Doomsday with the conversion chambers, they've reverted to bland, bumblers. Their most recent outing in series 6 had them at sub-Silver Nemesis in terms of threat. Many on the list I don't see much potential to be more than they are – Sycorax and Krillitane, not much I can see you can do with them – and Slitheen do what they say on the tin. I think the Master has been a great revision, Daleks on the whole have been strong bar more their more recent appearances. Ice Warriors I think are the most study having been played nicely as villains and surprise allies in the past.
I voted for the Silence. This is mainly because ther was SO much hype from BBC Towers. I must admit however, the Cybermen are falling behind their earlier menace. "Earthshock" has its faults. But there was a real sense of doom about the show.
I voted for the Cybermen because they could be a lot better. One only has to see the menacing threat of the Borg in Star Trek to see where the Cybermen could be.
To some extent the others on the list could be a little more scary – a a victim of the BBC's excessive caution at showing too much `horror'?

Challenging presidential power, a defiant U.S. House voted overwhelmingly Friday to deny President Barack Obama the authority to wage war against Libya. But Republicans fell short in an effort to actually cut off funds for the operation in a constitutional showdown reflecting both political differences and unease over American involvement.
In a repudiation of their commander in chief, House members rejected a measure to authorize the Libya mission for a year while prohibiting U.S. ground forces in the North African nation, a resolution Obama had said he would welcome.
The vote was 295-123 with 70 Democrats abandoning the president just one day after Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton had made an unusual appeal to rank-and-file members. A Senate committee is to consider the same resolution next Tuesday and is expected to support it, raising the prospect of conflicting messages from Congress.
Friday's votes showed lawmakers' concerns about an open-ended U.S. commitment to a civil war between Moammar Gadhafi and rebel forces looking to oust him — as well as growing weariness among Americans with drawn-out conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In addition, the resounding number rejecting the authority resolution was a clear sign of anger toward the president for failing to seek congressional consent for the operation within 60 days, as stated in the 1973 War Powers Resolution. Republicans and Democrats argued that an arrogant Obama had run roughshod over the Constitution, ignoring the authority of the legislative branch that the founding fathers had insisted has the power to declare war.
While Republican as well as Democratic presidents have often ignored the War Powers Resolution, a frustrated House voted earlier this month to rebuke Obama for failing to provide a "compelling rationale" for the Libyan mission and for launching U.S. military forces without congressional approval. They requested a report to Congress on the operation.
Obama further incensed lawmakers last week when he said he didn't need authorization because the operation did not rise to full-blown hostilities, a decision he reached by overruling some of his advisers.
It's not about Gadhafi, foes of the authorization said.
"I support the removal of the Libyan regime. I support the president's authority as commander in chief, but when the president chooses to challenge the powers of the Congress I, as speaker of the House, will defend the constitutional authority of the legislature," said Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.
Added Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Fla.: "The last thing that we want as Americans is for some president, whether it's this president or some future president, to be able to pick fights around the world without any debate from another branch of government."
The rejected money-cutoff bill, sponsored by Rooney, would have barred drone attacks and airstrikes but allowed the United States to continue actions in support of the NATO-led operation such as intelligence gathering, refueling and reconnaissance. The effort to cut off money was defeated, 238-180. While GOP leaders backed the measure, they didn't pressure Republicans to support it.
Supporting Obama, Democrats opposed to the votes argued that they would empower Gadhafi, aggravate NATO allies desperately needed in the fight in Afghanistan and send a dispiriting message to those who led the Arab spring uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt and elsewhere.
They reminded lawmakers of Gadhafi's role in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 and said he had American blood on his hands.
"The message will go all over the world, the message will go to Moammar Gadhafi, the message will go to our NATO allies, the message will go to every nation of the world that America does not keep faith with its allies," said Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the No. 2 Democrat in the House.
The authorization vote marked the first time since 1999 that either chamber had voted against backing a military action. The last time was to limit President Bill Clinton's authority to use ground forces in Kosovo. There will be no immediate effect on American involvement in the NATO-led mission in Libya, the same as in 1999.
Since NATO took command of the operation in early April, the U.S. role has largely been limited to support efforts such as intelligence and electronic warfare. However, the U.S. has launched airstrikes and drone attacks, flying more than 3,200 sorties. The effort has included 39 drone attacks and 80 strikes with jet fighters.
The bill to cut off funds failed, in part, because several Republicans feared that even a vote for limited authorization for a NATO support mission amounted to support for the war effort.
"By dictating to President Obama how he can use American military forces in support of the NATO effort in Libya, we would authorize him to continue the same mission he has been carrying out for the past three months without congressional approval," said Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J.
The votes Friday were not the last word in the House. Lawmakers plan to target money for Libya when the House considers the defense spending bill the week of July 4.
Reacting to the votes, Clinton said she would have preferred a different outcome on the authorization vote but was "gratified that the House decisively rejected" the bill to cut funds.
"We need to stand together across party lines and across both branches of government with the Libyan people and with our friends and allies and against Gadhafi," Clinton said.
In Benghazi, Libya, rebel spokesman Jalal el-Gallal, said he didn't know why the House voted against the authorization measure.
"America is the beating heart of democracy and should support the birth of a democracy in our time," he said. "I believe the American people will put the pressure on the government to change its mind."
White House spokesman Jay Carney said, "We think now is not the time to send the kind of mixed message that it sends when we're working with our allies to achieve the goals that we believe that are widely shared in Congress: protecting civilians in Libya, enforcing a no-fly zone, enforcing an arms embargo and further putting pressure on Gadhafi."
The authorization resolution mirrors a Senate measure sponsored by Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., and John McCain, R-Ariz. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee will consider that resolution on Tuesday, and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has indicated it has the panel's support.
Associated Press writers Jim Abrams, Lolita C. Baldor and Matthew Lee in Washington and Hadeel al-Shalchi in Libya contributed to this report.

It's always the same old story of faux rebuke and outrage, but they refuse to exercise the will of the American people. The House is that of "We the People"; I.E., a platform for summary dissent at America's grassroots level via our Congressional District Reps, but time and again these bought off, corporate friendly shills continue to support imperialistic adventurism in far off places.
We're using NATO as our surrogate to do our dirty work since we supply the $$ support for that org. They need to quit listening to the likes of "Shrillery Clinton" our addled SOS. Both she and her former President hubby are experts at selling out U.S. interests. Check out "Chinagate" and get up to speed about these two as to what they'll do and have done in the past all for a buck, Euro or shekel more. The American people have very short memories for sure.
I can overlook the U.S. Senate because it's always been a gentlemen's club of wealthy elitists who's mission is to look out for the monied interests, but not the House. They control the purse strings for the maintenance of this ongoing nonsense.
While they're at it, they need to pull the plug on Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and everywhere else we're beating the drums for perpetual perma-wars while sticking our ugly noses in everyone's business.
They're busy with deficit/budget problems; then this is the best place to start…no?! / : |

You can learn a lot from history. Our fearless leaders have…Bread and circuses. Entertain the masses.
Strange use of words by the author, referring to Obama as the House's commander in chief. The president is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, but doesn't have the power to commit troops to combat unless a declaration of war has been passed by the Congress. As per the Constitution, any way.
Enter the War Powers Act, which gives the president ninety days to play general, and then congressional approval must be sought.
Say what you will about Bush, but to my recollection he never violated that law. But what a strange turn of events these last few years. Actually, let's go back a little further…
The Republicans were opposed to Clinton's nation-building adventures all over the world. Then they came to power, and changed their minds.
The Democrats were opposed to Bush's imperial wars for oil. Then they came to power, and changed their minds.
We won't mention the Democrats' opposition to Bush's deficit spending. I was under the impression that they were unhappy with the size of the deficit, and it turns out that they were…It wasn't nearly big enough!
"Challenging" "defiant" "repudiation" "abandoning". Not at all words that accurately describe the house of Representatives. More appropiate words and phrases would be like "whipped curs" "spineless" "cowards" "traitors" and the like.
Pass a resolution that "wags there fingers" at the pres for being a bad boy but does nothing to stop him. And as you can see below by boehner's quote he agrees with what Obama is doing, which is not the point of the resolution.
"I support the removal of the Libyan regime. I support the president's authority as commander in chief, but when the president chooses to challenge the powers of the Congress I, as speaker of the House, will defend the constitutional authority of the legislature," said Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.
Poor speaker boehner,bypassed as an underling beneath notice by the most powerful corporate shill and warmonger in the WH and his whittle feewings get hurt!
I just watched "JFK" again and was reminded anew by his fate of the terrible military-industrial power wielded behind the scenes of our government that no single man can withstand. No wonder modern politicians cringe in fear and shy away from honest governance in unmitigated self-disrespect… vis-a-vis self-preservation. Add the ruthless national security "anti-terrorists" to the mix and it is no wonder as to why our future portends totalitarianism, not liberty.
Unfortunately, it would take a frigid day in hell for enough folks to notice the difference. Even if they did, nothing much would happen.
Go fishing, drink a beer, listen to your favorite music, satisfy the wife, hug your kids and dog… enjoy life and know that they can't. You win.
Don't forget the duct tape, plastic sheeting, and your flu shot Al.
If it comes to that… bend over and kiss yourself.
The countries involved in the conflict were at a loss for what to do from the very beginning. But it's hard to predict the future of Libya when the countries involved in the conflict are guided by their national interests. The positive outcome just before the presidential election is one of the reasons they are so reluctant to finish this war.
Good thoughts David in that conflicts like these can and will be used for political ends. Timing is key…no? The 2012 Presidential election is quite some time off, so continually funding NATO so they can pound munitions into sandhills until then is going to be a bit spendy. We really can't afford this nonsense, but our leadership doesn't care. The Fed will simply order the Treasury to have the Bureau of Engraving 'legally' counterfeit some more funny money to fund this debacle.
It seems ol' Gadhafi has been our duty 'punching bag' for quite some time starting back during the Reagan/H.W. Bush era. Seemingly it's time for the Democrats to resurrect the guy for another round of the 'Let's ruff up ol' Gadhafi game'…no? It's a great distraction from the trials and tribulations we're experiencing on the home front.
Here's a link to an article to which I replied in May of 2007 about Reagan/H.W. Bush using Libya to demonstrate our 'gunboat (airstrike)' diplomacy at its finest…NOT!

Do you ever wanted to hide files and folders on your computer? Yes! Previously, we learnt how to delete Windows password to access any Windows computer anonymously. So, even if you computer is password-protected, your private data is not secure. Usually, we have a lot of data which has to be protected from outside access and only Windows login password proves insufficient to serve the purpose. In such situations, it is better to use a command prompt secret trick to hide files on your computer. Today, I am posting easiest way of hiding files or folders using a command prompt trick. So, let us begin.
How to hide files and folders:
This is the simplest way of hiding files and folders on your computer. This trick works using just 2 commands. Let us get into steps of using this trick:
1. Press Win + R to get Run prompt. Type cmd and hit on Enter to get command prompt window.
Note: Win key indicates Window key.
2. Decide which file/folder you want to hide and copy its path. Say, I want to hide a folder named "xyz" and its path is: F:\xyz
3. In command prompt, enter this command:
attrib +s +h X
In above command, replace X with the path you copied in Step 2. So, in my case, the command becomes:
attrib +s +h F:\xyz
4. Hit on Enter and you will find your file/folder hidden.
Note: This trick hides files even if you have selected "Show hidden files" in Folder Options pane.
5. After hiding your private file, let us see how to restore your file. To unhide your file, use this command:
attrib -s -h X
Replace X with your file path.
If you want to hide a number of files/folders, you can create a new folder and add all your private data in this newly created folder. Now, the only thing you have to do is hide the newly created folder and your data is safe and secure from outsiders.
I hope you are now able to hide folders using this simple command prompt trick. You don't need any extra software to do the job for you. Your private data is now 100% safe. Cheers!

Title: Container transporter crane
Pages: 66 - 69
Author: Editorial
Container transporter crane
The crane is manufactured by Stothert & Pitt Ltd. and designed by their design team to the specification of the British Railways Board.
The container revolution in transport has well-established advantages: handling costs are considerably reduced; freight is delivered faster; packaging costs are cut; and pilfering is discouraged. But the capital investment containerisation requires is high: container ships are expensive; special trains and lorries have to be built; handling cranes and other equipment are large and complex; and the containers themselves cost anything up to Ł1000 each. The revolution is therefore economic only if this capital investment is used intensively, with ships, containers, lorries and trains all moving freight with as little delay as possible for handling. And a system using cranes to shift containers from one form of transport to another is entirely dependent on the reliability of the cranes: if a ship, train, or lorry breaks down, temporary replacements can always be found; but if a crane fails the whole multi-million-pound system will rapidly come to a halt.
Reliability and ease of maintenance are therefore the key factors in the two quayside container transporter cranes which Stothert &Pitt have designed and built to the specification of British Rail for BR's Parkeston Quay container port at Harwich. For these two cranes - first of their kind to be designed and made in Britain - provide the only method of transferring containers from ship to land-based transport in this high-capacity freight link with north-western Europe.
The Parkeston Quay installation is designed for the fast transfer of containers from ship to train or lorry. Specially built ships operate between Harwich and Zeebrugge or Rotterdam, each carrying up to 150 containers and completing one round trip a day. The cranes can unload and reload a ship in as short a time as four and a half hours, the containers being systematically moved from the quayside by lorries which take them to a storage area behind the quay where they are sorted and loaded onto Freightliner trains or lorries as appropriate (two Stothert & Pitt goliath cranes are used in this area). The container transporter cranes have been designed to deal with three ships and to sort containers in a temporary storage area at their base during an 18-hour working day. Operating six days a week it is therefore possible for the cranes to load and unload some 5,000 containers, each weighing up to 30 tons, during a week; and each crane can be operated with just a two man crew.
The 450-ton cranes are each mounted on four sets of bogies running on rails 108 ft apart; this span allows space between the legs of the crane for temporary storage of containers six deep and three high, as well as for road and rail vehicles. The crane boom has a cantilevered outreach of 68 ft and can be retracted to 75 degrees to make room for ships to pass for docking; it can continue moving containers between its legs while the boom is in the stowed position. The front legs of the crane are the more heavily loaded and resist any horizontal forces, the rear legs being pivoted at the junction with the main structure in order to allow for any variation in the laying of the rails. The machinery house is mounted above the rear legs.
A telescopic steel spreader is used to lift the containers; this adjusts automatically to 20 ft. 30 ft or 40 ft at the press of a button in the driver's cab; 10 ft containers can be lifted by lugs beneath the spreader. On each corner of the spreader is a T-shaped twist lock which drops into a casting on the corner of the container and turns through 90 degrees to lock for lifting. Each corner of the spreader is also equipped with flared "gather guides"
which position the spreader accurately as it drops onto the container. The crane drive can use all the guides or any pair so that the container may be lifted even if it is adjacent to other containers; all the guides are retracted for lowering the spreader into the cells in which the containers are housed on board ship, the cell framework itself then acting as a guide for the spreader's accurate positioning.
All of these very complex movements are hydraulically operated, directed entirely from a push-botton control console housed in the drivers cab. Interlocks prevent a container being lifted unless all four twist locks are positively in position and unless sensitive vertical probes at each corner confirm that the spreader is in contact with the container. The spreader is suspended from the traverse trolley by four double-wire ropes to ensure that it is lifted level and to discourage the load from swinging.
The driver's cab has excellent all-round vision - including large windows in the floor and is attached to the traverse trolley so that the driver is always over the spreader and can see clearly where to place it or the container it is lifting. Two joysticks operate all crane motions, their direction being related to the movement required. English Electric Cranestat thyristor convertor control equipment is used for hoisting, traversing and travelling, providing infinitely variable speeds, immediate reversal of direction, and smooth acceleration and deceleration. This equipment enables the driver to move the crane by as little as half an inch and the smoothness of its operation helps to prevent the load from swinging.
(Captions page 67) The two container transporter cranes at Parkeston Quay load and unload three ships and sort containers in the storage area at their base during an 18-hour working day. Operating six days a week, they therefore handle 5,000 containers, each weighing up to 30 tons, during a week.
The crane boom has a cantilevered outreach of 68 f t and can be retracted to 75 degrees to enable ships to pass beneath for docking. It can continue to move containers between its legs while the boom is in the stowed position.
The normal method of working is for a row of cells across the ship to be dealt with at a time; once a cell is empty the crane takes a container from the quay and loads it and then takes the container from the next cell to the quay. The speed of travel of the crane is therefore not critical, the important factor being the traverse and hoist speeds. Fully loaded, the traverse speed is 300 ft per minute and the hoist speed 60 ft per minute; unloaded, the speeds are 400 ft per minute and 120ft per minute.
Because the cranes form a vital link in an expensive system, and because they are called on to operate nearly twice as many hours a year as a conventional dockside crane, reliability and ease of maintenance were prime requirements. The two award winning cranes are designed to the British Standard heavy duty operating specification, with all mechanical parts generously rated. Sealed roller bearings and gears running in oil baths are used extensively to reduce maintenance. The electrical control equipment is built on plug-in boards and has a monitoring system which enables any fault to be located rapidly. Even such infrequent maintenance as the replacement of ropes has been considered, with a special device for speeding rope-changing. The large machinery house provides plenty of room for any part to be removed easily, a machinery hoist being built in. The traverse trolley is floored to make access easy, and hooks are provided on the crane for attaching cradles for painting. The electrical control link between the traverse trolley and the machinery house is unbroken by conventional sliding contacts or brushes, and consists of a continuous catenary cable suspended from sliding hooks, thus getting rid of a possible source of control failure.
The crane has many safety features. For example, a container cannot be lifted unless the spreader has been properly locked, and it cannot be unlocked until the full weight of the container is off the spreader; all controls are fitted with limit switches to prevent overunning, and the driver is provided with a Davy escape apparatus for any emergency exit from his high cab 45 ft above the ground.
One danger with these big container cranes is that they will be blown along the rails by a high wind and derailed; Stothert & Pitt cranes have powerful brakes, are equipped with anchor pins to attach them firmly to the quay when parked, and are designed so that the gearing on the individually powered bogies virtually locks the wheels until the moment when power is switched to the motors.
Stothert & Pitt had been in discussions with British Rail about container cranes in general since 1963, but serious work on the Harwich cranes did not begin until the spring of 1966, with the first entering service some 30 months later. The performance specification was laid down by the Railways Board in consultation with the manufacturer, while the design work was carried out by Stothert & Pitt, drawings being discussed with BR at regular monthly meetings. Both customer and manufacturer formed development teams to carry the contract
through, with such specialist sub-contractors as English Electric and Allen West & Co (who were responsible for the cab control console) being called in when necessary. The first design put forward by Stothert & Pitt was for a lattice structure, but BR turned this down in favour of a fabricated stressed box construction. This meant that Stothert & Pitt had to extend their techniques of structural analysis into a new area, for this thin-wall, internally stiffened construction required methods that are more akin to aircraft manufacture than traditional methods of crane-making.
Other areas for study included the design of the rope system to enable the crane to be used with the boom either up or down: this problem was solved by providing guides which direct the ropes onto alternative pulleys as the boom is lifted. Attention was also given to ensure that the endless traverse ropes are always taut: a measuring and control system is fitted to adjust the ropes in order that very fine control of the traverse position is possible. The problems of erection were also considered. The use of large member sections helped, but the methods to be used for erection were nevertheless checked with a model of the crane made for this purpose.
Design costs totalled about 5 per cent of the Ł400,000 which was the total cost of the two cranes, with nearly a fifth of these costs being on the control gear; this had not previously been used on this size of crane, although Stothert & Pitt had experience with it on later versions of the DD2 dockside crane which won a CoID Design Award two years ago.
Stothert & Pitt have so far built nine quay side container cranes in Britain, and recently announced a Ł485,000 order for a large double-lift container crane for the port of Wellington in New Zealand.
(Caption page 69) The driver's cab has excellent all-round vision (cabs of both cranes are visible in the picture oppolite). The cab is attached to the traverse trolley so that the driver is always positioned over the spreader, which lifts the containers, to supervise its operation. He can adjust the spreader at the press of a button to 20 ft. 30 ft or 40 ft. A twist lock on each corner of the spreader drops into a casting on the corner of the container and turns through 90 degrees to lock for lifting. Each spreader corner is also equipped with flared gather guides to position it accurately as it drops on to the container. Operations are hydraulically operated, directed entirely from a pushbutton control console in the driver's cab. The spreader is suspended from the trolley by four double-wire ropes to ensure that it is lifted level and to discourage the load from swinging. The machinery house, right, is mounted above the rear legs.

Build and challenge your startup and innovation!
We are happy to tell you something about the things we are working on.
We are a team of startup and innovation enthusiastics. During the past 18 months we have worked together with scientists, business engineers, incubation and accelerator professionals and many entrepreneurs. With their help, we have designed and developed a dedicated toolset for innovative entrepreneurs who are starting up new businesses. We were inspired by gurus like Steve Blank, Eric Ries and Alex Osterwalder but also looked further and found great insights from Ash Maurya and Dave McClure for example.
With our toolset we address the two most important issues for an innovative startup:
In the past months nearly 300 entrepreneurs have used out first beta toolset. We gained a lot of honest and positive feedback and used much of this information to build our next version of the Golden Egg Check. We are now testing it in a private beta, but we're about to launch the public version. Want to be one of the first to know? Get your notification by signing up.
We are about to launch, but still ask for a little patience because we are working on the latest feedback and tips we received from our beta users.
With our Golden Egg Check toolset we offer entrepreneurs, incubators and accelerators an online platform and toolset. It contains:
Want to know what it will look like? Check out this impression we posted on Slideshare. We would be happy to receive your comments and feedback, just send us an e-mail and we will get back to you asap.
We are offering a stand-alone toolset for startup entrepreneurs but also developed a dedicated portfolio toolset for accelerators, incubators, TTO's and investors. It contains specific features like a dedicated community, with your coaches, experts, investors and all kinds of metrics. Send us an e-mail for more information.
Want to be one of the first to know? Get your notification by signing up.
We believe successful startups are the positive outcomes of the combined effort of multiple people with multidisciplinary backgrounds. Therefore, we want to make it very easy for entrepreneurs to interact with people that could bring their startup to the next level in order to build high potential companies. Successful entrepreneurs are able to learn and know if and when to make a pivot. They will create value and know that their most scarce resource is, indeed, time. Because they lack the time to write comprehensive business plans, and since most business plans won't survive the first contact with the market, these entrepreneurs preferably do not spend time on large and complex business plans. They feel the urge for dynamics!
Therefore we have spent a considerable amount of time to find out:
Get ready to start, build and pivot your start-up! No talk, all action!
Want to be one of the first to know? Get your notification by signing up.
It makes us very proud that already almost 300 startup companies and their coaches, mentors, etc. worked with our beta toolset and experienced its added value. We are also very pleased to announce that our portfolio toolset is adopted by leading incubating and accelerating organizations like:
Investors are our key partners; they tell us what kind of criteria we need to use in our toolset. We have involved many investors, among them are leading Dutch venture capital firms like Newion Investments, Prime Ventures, GIMV and Value Creation & Company.
In 2012 and 2013 the European Business & Innovation Centre Network (www.ebn.be) selected our toolset as one of the most valuable ones in Europe for innovative entrepreneurs and supporting organizations. It was a great honor to present our tools at the EBN congress in London and Rovereto.
Want to be one of the first to know? Get your notification by signing up.
You don't really want to be a laggard do you? Drop us you email if you are the innovator, the early adopter, the believer, and we'll let you know as soon as we'll go live soon!

"In our search for investors for a new round of funding, we have assessed our proposition with the Golden Egg Check. This methodology and its corresponding tools have given us very valuable insights and above all allowed us to critically evaluate ourselves and our proposition from the perspective of a prospective investor. Within our team we already have experience with investors, but the Golden Egg Check has been a very fresh way to be well prepared for a new round of funding. In this phase of the investment process the check and the related company valuation offered us a perfect foundation for our conversation with investors.
I would therefore strongly recommend entrepreneurs to make use of the Golden Egg Check!"
Henny Oord, entrepreneur (www.e-nose.nl)
In the past months we worked with many enthusiastic people in the field of innovation and startup and growing companies. Among them are entrepreneurs, investors, scientists (University of Twente and the Dutch Institute of Knowledge Intensive Entrepreneurship, NIKOS), professionals and experts. We will continue our cooperation with these 'friends' of the Golden Egg Check in the future.
We are innovation and startup enthusiastic, with backgrounds in business, software development and design. We would like to introduce the key members of our team to you:

I actually caused this in a 25-man PUG I was in, I didn't say anything and I guess my vent updated and had lost all its settings (my mic is really loud so I have to turn it down). I said something once and supposedly everyone had to throw down their headset in the middle of the boss fight cause I made their ears bleed. I just kept quiet after that.

The Avengers - End Credits (1080p HD)Method Design in Los Angeles created the closing credits for The Avengers. Steve Viola, creative director at Method Design, said, "This piece was a two-minute, self-contained main on end sequence created entirely in CG. For each of the shots in the sequence, we designed, modeled, textured, and lit all of the environments and many of the foreground objects. We received assets from Marvel to include in the piece, then heavily re-modeled and re-surfaced them to create a post-battle macro sequence. We also designed a custom typeface for the Main Title of The Avengers as well as 30 credits set in-scene."

I don't see why everyone is freaking out.
They are cutting mana regen across the board for all healers (which they stated they would do from the beginning) and comparing divine plea to innervate and mana tide is just silly. Those are tools that can benefit more then just the healer, if you have to compare your regen to other classes it has to be on the abilities that affect only themselves.
I like to reserve judgement on changes untill I see actual raid/pvp viability and all this blog shows me is someone who hates "nerfs" when in reality it is clearly an attempt to bring paladins down to the standards of other healers. It might be too much true but that doesn't mean they intend to keep it that way.
HunterFromTheStart said...
Down to the Standards of other Healers? While it is fair to say, the Paladin definitely has some major advantages in healing, especially when healing one person, some of the major DISADVANTAGES of healing as a Paladin are incredible. The little healing I have done as a Druid was just amazing, compared to healing as a Paladin. The HoT's made gorgeous work of keeping people alive, and gave me alot more options in how I was going to do things. The consequential damage a tank was going to be KNOWN to be taking, was completely negated by a simple HoT spell, leaving me to keep some of the DPS up also, and actually pay attention to what was going on around me. It seemed to me that while I also had options to retroactively heal as a Druid, most of my healing was proactive, and it was awesome.
And it's unfair to compare Divine Plea and Innervate? Ok, since we are discussing changes, fix it back to where it was, remove the healing loss, and let us use it on other players.

.Net client problem with byte[] to ulong binary conversion
Hi there, one of our counters last week reached a value greater than ~ 2B and started producing corrupt data (negative values).
We identified the issue to be on the Enyim client's method that parses ulong bytes. It looks as if half of the bytes gets parsed property, the other half doesn't.
I submitted an issue, unit test and temporary fix on the Github project:
but you guys might want to elevate priority on this since it can be really devastating for anyone relying on Memcached counters.
The fix I provided creates a new byte array in order to reverse the bytes and BitConverter to parse it. Using bit shifting would probably be more efficient, but the approach we took was guaranteed to produce a reliable value.
New unit tests should also be created to test all 8-byte integer conversions with values outside the 4-byte range. I *think* UInt64 encoding is working as expected, but you may want to take a closer look.

This photograph shows Massey Shaw, Chief Officer of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade wearing the uniform he introduced. The uniform consisted of a brass, or silver helmet, and a woollen tunic.
Captain Sir Eyre Massey Shaw took over the Brigade after James Braidwood died, and changed it significantly. He established a new rank system and uniform, built new fire stations and employed new technology to improve the service.
Shaw was well known throughout society for the work he was doing. He was friends with the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII) who enjoyed being taken out to the scene of large fires.
In 1889 the London County Council was formed and took away Shaw's sole control over the Brigade. After 30 years of service he retired in 1891.
The Prince of Wales had his own MFB uniform which he could wear out to fires.
In the time Shaw controlled the Brigade, the MFB dealt with 55,004 fires, an average of five a day.

The high profile, and controversial 1997 murder of John Hartman is once again back in the news, as one of the men convicted of killing the 15 year old boy, has cleared a major
hurdle in his quest for a new trial.
Earlier this week, the Alaska Supreme Court announced Eugene Vent deserves the right to argue for a new trial.
In 2012, Vent was victorious when the Alaska Court of Appeals ruled that a lower court improperly handled his accusations that he received
ineffective counsel during his 1999 jury trial.
The State had appeal the ruling, effectively sending it to the higher court, who this week refused to hear the case.
The high court decision now sends the issue back to the trial court level, where Vent will have another chance to prove his claims.
No date has been set for that hearing.
Vent, Marvin Roberts, Kevin Pease and George Frese are all serving between 33 and 79 years in jail for the Hartman murder.
The teenager was found lying on a street corner, badly beaten and sexually assaulted, in downtown Fairbanks during the early morning
hours of October 11, 1997.
He died the following day at Fairbanks Memorial Hospital.

Exactly what I was thinking throughout reading this article. The whole article is "wouldn't it be cool if we ever saw a token defeat" and ignored the big example of just that. Congratulations to the op. Your whole article and thread suggesting something to Blizzard... is wholly based on somehting Blizzard already did. Way to be creative!

Air Jordan IV – C.C. Sabathia Game Worn Cleat PE
October 17th, 2011 by John Kim | 8 comments
C.C. Sabathia has a very good 2011 regular season, but Yankee fans who have been tracking his progress know that he didn't end the 2011 campaign so well. We're all aware that his NLDS pitching performances didn't exactly do much for the Yankees' quest for number 28, but remember that he did post 19 wins this season with a 3.00 ERA while pitching a ton of innings. Here's a look at a game-worn PE of the Air Jordan IV – one that we showed you in mid July; it features a the Yankees 'Away' digs (Navy and Grey) with Sabathia's 52 stitched on the upper. With rumors of Sabathia possibly opting out of his Yankees contract, these could be one of the last game-worn Air Jordan PEs in Yankees colors we'll see on C.C.'s feet. More images below, but if you want these in your collection, hit up the auction from tylerdurdan24 on eBay.

I have a feeling that Sylvannas, being the now very creepy and even more hatable -insert bad word here- she is, Is there a chance she took some Frostmourne shards? An another note, do you think we will get more worgen lore continuation at Hallow's Eve. It seems that there is going to be more Worgen and Forsaken fighting.
I was reading somewhere that Hallows end is getting a revamp in quests/lore/goodies. Makes sense too considering southshore is now the stinkpit we tried to prevent for the last few years. Perhaps Sylvanas will reveal she has Arthas frozen in a block of carbonite until she and her top men* can get a hold of enough shards to raise him into her undead army. Maybe she can enlist Miracle Max to come up with a chocolate pill.
Just leaving this here for reference. :)

Excellent! I was a bit hesitant because of the cream when a friend raved over the recipe, but knowing how well he cooks I tried it and am so glad I did. The cream throws it over the top!
Now THIS is a good corned beef hash recipe! The only way to blow this would be insufficient caramelization of the onions, peppers and potatoes. I also add a little chipotle powder. The cream brings it all together. Over- easy eggs are a lot less work and actually add more taste than poached.
This is unbelievably good. I would give it 10 starss!!! Dont change a thing just follow the recipe. This might be the best recipe we have ever found on this website and we use it every week.
I made this dish last night in hopes for a delicious corned beef hash. This is not it. It was weirdly sweet and very dry. The corned beef was very flavorful before mixing with the rest of the ingredients, then all of the flavor went somewhere.....won't make again, as it was a waste of very good ingredients.
First time making hash with leftover corned beef. Seemed like a solid recipe. I didn't get what the cream was about, but I added it anyway. I don't think it would be missed. I did poached eggs, but next time I'll do over-easy.
Wow, this was yummy. I used leftover corned beef from St. Patty's day. Had a poblano pepper instead of red bell, that worked out great anyway. Served w/side of buttered rye toast, eggs, sliced avocado and tobasco sauce. Great start to any weekend.
The splash of cream and handful of parsley are what make this better than your average hash. I made my own corned beef for this and it was a great way to highlight it.
One fork, because this recipe was just OK. I was disappointed because of all of the great reviews. I followed the recipe exactly, except I added more onion and peppers for more flavor...and we all thought it tasted very bland. I put it under the broiler to crisp it, but even that didn't help make it tasty enough to make again.
I joined this site because of this recipe! I cooked a 4 pound brisket (flat cut) in the crockpot with onion, garlic and a bay leaf and the amount was just right for the recipe. Like others, I used a bag of Simply Potatoes and cut the potatoes up a bit. Food processor worked well for the brisket and I added some extra onion. It was soooo delicious! Served it for Christmas Day brunch.

March Performance Chevy small block serpentine conversion kits are mid-mount pulley kits that place your alternator and power steering pump below the centerline of the water pump. They are simple to bolt on, while still retaining your standard-rotation long water pump. Serpentine belts eliminate belt throwing. The kits are available with performance pulleys for increased horsepower, high water flow ratios for increased cooling, or mid-performance ratios for a combination of both. The pulleys are CNC-machined from solid billet 6061-T6 aluminum for a spectacular looking machine finish with a perfect fit and extra-high strength. All March Performance billet pulleys and brackets have a maintenance-free clear powdercoating. These performance pulleys will increase your engine by approximately 12-15 hp, depending on the accessories driven. The kits are available with a driver side mounted A/C option. The use of a combination bracket in these kits allows for the addition of an alternator idler, which provides excellent belt wrap around the alternator and A/C compressor pulleys.

PHP Class for Generating HTML Forms
The PHP Form Class is a light weight yet very flexible class for generating (x)html forms. It contains methods for generating common form elements such as inputs of all types, text areas, select lists, and more. Not only can it be used to create the common input types such as text boxes, radio buttons, check boxes, and submit buttons, it can also be used to create the new HTML5 input types. The method provided for adding attributes is also very flexible, allowing you to add any attribute, including custom attributes, to any element using associative array syntax.
Generic functions are included that allow you to add an element of any type, perhaps for containing your form elements. A property setting allows you to specify XHTML syntax for closing empty tags and expanding minimized or boolean attributes.
All this functionality, yet the class file is very brief and the syntax for using it very concise. View the PHP Form Class file as well as an example and source code demonstrating its use. The PHP Form Class file and an example are provided in the download file. Documentation is also provided.
See the PHP Table Class which is well suited for use with the form class. See also the PHP Order Form for a demonstration of the form class used in combination with the PHP Table Class.

Adam Mitchel Lambert (born January 29, 1982) is a flamboyant musician and the runner-up in Season 8 of American Idol.Before he was in American Idol, he was doing musical theater — he had been in the San Francisco production of Wicked, and a musical version of The Ten Commandments starring Val Kilmer as Moses.On the show, Lambert was known for his flamboyant mannerisms and appearance and sometimes over-the-top performing flair, requesting interesting costumes, remixed musical accompaniments and flashy lighting effects during the rehearsals for the live shows, which mostly helped him, the judges quick to recognise his showmanship. Rumours swirled about his sexual orientation and Lambert didn't outright deny the claims, but he was careful to remain in the closet until the season was over so as not to harm his chances of winning. He also drew flak because he had past professional experience, with some viewers feeling that perhaps he had an unfair advantage over the other previously-undiscovered contestants.The show made no secret that they wanted him to win — guest performer Katy Perry had the name "Adam Lambert" embroidered on the back of her cape during her musical number (not the one with the contestants) in the Top 3 show. Lambert himself probably was ready to go before then — in recent seasons, getting into the Top 2 can hurt your musical career relative to a lower placing. But between his obvious talent and Danny Gokey's disaster with "Dream On" the previous week failing to leave the radar, he made runner-up.His loss to Kris Allen shocked almost everyone who didn't vote for Kris Allen. It didn't help that some AT&T dealerships in Arkansas (Allen's home state) may have rigged some of the cell-phone voting — not enough to make a difference in who won that season, we were assured, but probably enough to tarnish American Idol's credibility and do serious damage to the ratings for Season 9.Adam Lambert has released three albums since then: For Your Entertainment (his studio debut), Take One (consisting of pre-Idol recordings) and Trespassing (his follow up to For Your Entertainment). His musicianship and showmanship remain good, and he has sold better than Kris Allen. His live performances, however, are controversial because some of them were sexually provocative and filled with overt Ho Yay - Lambert has had dancers put their faces in his crotch, and has kissed the male keyboardist/guitarist of the backing band full on the mouth. This came as an unexpected shock fo the television stations who were airing the shows (most of them big awards shows like the Grammys, several with television audiences expected to include families/young children and teens) live, led to his appearances on several daytime/morning talk shows getting cancelled, and also is a double-fault with some audiences and some Standards and Practices departments. Lambert has said he does not regret his risque performance decisions, though sometimes concedes that it may have been a little much.Adam is currently set to have an acting role in the fifth season of Glee. His debut episode will air on November 7.

Nob Hill Restaurants in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico

Mannies Family Restaurant
(505) 265-1669www.manniesnobhill.com
Cuisine: American, Diner, New Mexican
Mannies is a little neighborhood diner that's actually quite big. You're sure to see someone you know if you eat at Mannies for breakfast on the weekend. People go for the pancakes, the homemade muffins, the French toast and, of course, to see and be seen. Mannies has a marvelous BLT with thick slabs of bacon, a nest of shredded lettuce and a generous slathering of mayo. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)
Model Pharmacy
Mon-Fri: 9:30am-5:30pm Cafe 9:30am-3:30pm Sat: 10am-5pm Cafe 10am-3:00 Closed Sunday (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: Diner, American, Ice Cream/Smoothies/Gelato/Fro-Yo
There are more members of AARP than UNM students at this University-area lunch counter, but it has nothing to do with the food. There are also more women than men filling the tables, though that's understandable. After all, half of the building is dedicated to fancy soaps, hairbrushes, jewelry and perfumes. But this pharmacy (which doesn't take insurance and therefore fills few prescriptions) is full of mysterious contrasts and pleasant surprises. The mostly sandwich menu is far above par, with real roasted turkey breast and house-made brisket, and Model has the Best Soda Fountain in Albuquerque, according to our readers.

Dinner menu: Tue-Sat 5pm-11 pm Bar menu: Tue-Sat 3 pm-1am Sun noon-midnight Mon 2pm-midnight (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: American, Bar and Grill/Pub
With sometimes too-loud live music and a party-hard crowd, it's usually best to avoid this place on the weekends. But stop in for a late lunch or weeknight burger and a beer, and you'll get a different experience. The beef here is grass-fed, New Mexico-grown, and steroid- and antibiotic-free, and the cooks at Monte Vista deserve praise for what they do with it. The freshly ground burgers are juicy and big, the steak frites hit the spot, and the beef skewers are tender and one of the best deals on cow in town. And if you do brave the weekend crowd, you'll be rewarded by bowls of mussels served with your choice of several sauces, including coconut curry, Mexican and classic French. Served with a grilled baguette to soak up a small sea of broth, it's a great way to fill a belly for $10. (Alibi Staff, December 23, 2010)

Full review: Gastrobar is best after dinner (6/26/2008)
If you like your comfort food with a gourmet twist, it's here. Nob Hill Bar and Grill boasts meatloaf (crowned with smoked bacon) and burgers (American kobe). Signature cocktails, a few vegetarian entrées, and a comfy but chic atmosphere make Nob Hill Bar and Grill a solid addition to the neighborhood. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Mon-Sat 8am to 3pm Sunday 8am to 1pm (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: Jewish, Deli/Sandwiches
Full review: Nosh brings Jewish food to Burque (11/21/2013)
Jewish cuisine comes to Nob Hill in the form of Nosh, a friendly deli style café where the lox is lush, the cream cheese is tangy and the owner calls you "hon." You'll walk out smelling like knish, but it's worth it for a crack at Albuquerque's most delicious and authentic latkes. (Alibi Staff, November 21, 2013)
Nu Asia Vegan Restaurant
Cuisine: Asian, Vegetarian/Health Foods, Sushi
Full review: Nu Asia Vegan (6/19/2014)
Vegan foodies rejoice! Another Asian eatery has opened with a mission to cater to your needs, and this one features all-you-can-eat vegan sushi. Try the lucky roll, or the salmon crunch roll, or a bento box and munch, munch, munch to your veggie heart's content. (Alibi Staff, May 21, 2014)
Olo Yogurt Studio

Mon-Fri: 12pm to 11pm Sat-Sun 11am to 11pm (hours can change without notice)
Meals Served: Open Late
Cuisine: Ice Cream/Smoothies/Gelato/Fro-Yo
The process used to create Olo's vibrant flavors guarantees live, active cultures in the product. There are 10 flavors available on tap at any given time, every one richly flavorful. (You can find this week's list of flavors on Olo's website.) Follow the signs and take a cup to the stainless steel taps. Once you have your yogurt(s) in a cup, there are more than 45 toppings to crown your dish. Finish it off with a swirl of whipped cream and weigh in at the register. At less than 50 cents an ounce (and prices drop during cold weather), you can customize a treat that satisfies your palate and your pocketbook. (Alibi Staff, November 18, 2010)
P'tit Louis Bistro Nob Hill
(505) 314-1110ptitlouisbistro.com
Mon- Sat: 11 am- 5:30 pm Thu- Sat: 5:30- 10 pm (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: Fine Dining, French
P'tit Louis' new Nob Hill digs is a collaboration between Christopher Descarpentries, John Phinizy and Tom White of Il Vicino and Two Fools Tavern. Descarpentries has a knack for building Paris from scratch. The restaurant on Gold transports you to Paris of the '20s. P'tit Louis on Silver resembles bistro along the outskirts of Paris. The menu welcomes diners to many of the downtown bistro's popular dishes but there are some new choices as well. Descarpentries will continue the practice of daily specials. Nob Hill diners will have the added pleasure of dinner hours Thursday through Saturday and, when weather permits, alfresco dining on the patio. Special private seatings are still available on other evenings. (Alibi Staff, September 29, 2011)

Cuisine: Seafood, Cajun/Creole, Caribbean
Cajun-style shrimp with an emphasis on spicy, although Jamaican and Indian sauces have been added to the offerings. The menu also includes sandwiches, salads and Cajun specialties like pan-fried gator, jambalaya and gumbo. (Alibi Staff, October 9, 2013)

Cuisine: Coffee/Tea/Espresso, Deli/Sandwiches
Satellite serves up coffee (the Best Coffee, according to Best of Burque Restaurants polls) and tea, as well as burritos, sandwiches and pastries. This is a good choice if you're hungry late (it's open until at least 10:30 p.m. most nights) or need a quick gift for your beverage-loving friends: We recommend the too-cute travel mugs.

Full review: Scalo Northern Italian Grill (6/6/2013)
The surprising thing about Scalo is that it's simultaneously more pleasant and less expensive than you'd think. It's just as breezy and classy as ever in its high-ceilinged dining room, while the patio will have a nice, long season of pleasant weather. Now serving brunch on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and there's plenty of fresh-pressed espresso to sip with it. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

Full review: The future looks bright at Shade Tree Customs and Café (2/6/2014)
If you're into meat and motors, you should check this place out. The back half of the building is reserved for customizing motorcycles, while the front half is a rollicking restaurant with a great beer selection and a stage for live music. The menu revels in heavier fare like burgers and fried chicken. Stop by in the morning for the best-tasting breakfast in Nob Hill. (Alibi Staff, December 6, 2012)
Shogun Japanese Restaurant
Lunch: Mon-Fri: 11:30am-2pm Sat: 12:00pm-2:30pm Dinner: Mon-Thurs: 5:00-9:30pm Fri-Sat: 5:00-10:30pm Closed Sunday (hours can change without notice)
Shogun serves sashimi, nigiri and sushi rolls in a fashionable Nob Hill setting. Park yourself by the sushi bar to watch the chefs skillfully prepare Japanese specialties as outgoing orders float past you on little wooden boats. The spider roll (with fried soft shell crab) is highly addictive, so be sure to order enough for everyone in your party. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)
The Shop
8am to 3pm Tuesday-Sunday Closed Monday (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: American, New Mexican, Mexican
It's in a location that has seen quite a few restaurants come and go over the years, but The Shop looks like it just might be poised to make a real go of it. With an emphasis on high quality, locally sourced foods, the menu here covers breakfast (try the pancakes and the chilaquiles) and lunch (I suggest a cubano or chicken and waffles) with equal finesse and attention to detail. Here's to hoping they stick around. (Alibi Staff, March 12, 2014)

Cuisine: Asian, Chinese, Dim Sum, Fusion, Japanese, Korean, Take Out/To-Go, Thai, Vietnamese
On the streets of Asia, vendors often specialize in one dish handed down through generations, preparing quick meals for passersby like hot noodle bowls, exotic sandwiches and spicy skewered satays. It's a hotbed of cultural diversity including Vietnamese pho, Korean noodles, Japanese udon, and Malay and Chinese stir-fry. StreetFood Asia's menu offers a dizzying array of sauces, toppings, garnishes, meats, seafood, and vegetables in dinner portions or small plates in the heart of Nob Hill. Exotic bar drinks and an long list of excellent sakes adds sparkle to your meal. (Alibi Staff, July 12, 2011)
Thai Vegan Nob Hill
Cuisine: Asian, Thai, Vegetarian/Health Foods, Vegan
Full review: Thai Vegan dishes in a new location (3/7/2013)
The Thai Vegan menu includes fake shrimp, chicken, fish and pepper steak. That said, it isn't the vegetarian faux meats that makes the place so good, but rather the fact that the cooks really know what they're doing as they whip up their vegan delights. The Thai iced tea (yup, that's vegan too) is like sipping Bangkok through a straw. (Alibi Staff, April 10, 2013)
Torpedo Dog
Cuisine: American
A good polish sausage can be a hunk of fatty bliss, but the guys at Torpedo Dog know that the right sauce can further elevate it into a savory, succulent transcendence. Whether you choose red chile mustard, enchilada sauce or chipotle BBQ, all their sauces are homemade and guaranteed to make your palate sing. (Alibi Staff, October 12, 2012)

A Little Glamour in the Entryway

Meh. Whatever's thrown on the chair I want to hang up to get of the way.
However I am curious about that bedroom.
I love the Roomark posts. They always take me to tours that I have missed. Lovely home this. Makes me wish it was the holiday.
Feh. A frilly petticoat (or whatever) thrown on a chair does not make a little glamour: it makes a little mess. But what is with that fascinating bedroom wall I spot in the distance?
I agree about the frilly thing. I wouldn't leave it there - I'd wear it. But the label 'primitive modern' is magical. Must explore this design style!
The mirror in the room could be a little more glamorous.
Love the chair, not the throw. I concure about the bedroom, let's see it!
so minimal yet so maximal. the ultimate triumph

Bringing Home Baby Carrots
