A native of Michigan, Dr. Heh Shin Kwak attended the University of Michigan, where she received her Bachelor of Science in Biopsychology and Cognitive Science. She continued her education at the University of Michigan, later graduating from University of Michigan Medical School in 2005, during which she completed a research fellowship with the National Institutes of Health. She then completed a transitional year at MacNeal Hospital outside Chicago, Illinois.

When not in the office, Dr. Kwak enjoys cooking, baking and exploring activities in the great outdoors of her new home in Oregon. She enjoys rock climbing and hiking with her husband.
Dr Kwak was friendly, courteous, clear and direct. She made sure I understood the items discussed and provided recommendations for prevention.
Great, she is always honest and forthright with what she can do and not approved through insurance.
Dr. Kwak is an excellent Dermatologist and quite knowledgeable. I would definitely visit with Dr. Kwak again.
Will not return to this practice. Not impressed with Dr. Kwak.
Super sweetie pie. But all business.
Very good I like how everyone threaded me and how professional they are
She was very personable, yet professional.
Professional, easy to talk to and friendly staff
Dr. Kwak is an excellent dermatologist and I would highly recommend her to anyone with skin issues.

Dr. Kwah was very personable, relaxed and through. She did a great job of answering my questions and explaining things I did not understand. She seemed to be genuinely interested in me.
I feel very comfortable with Dr. Kwak and she explains what is going on with my skin in terms I understand.
Really good experience, very thorough and took the time to address all my concerns, didn't feel rushed at all.
I was pleased beyond words. Because my son has autism and is non verbal, and has a short attention span, taking him to appointments can be challenging. They made us feel very welcome, no matter our differences, and that is huge! Thank you so much Knott Dermatology!
She was very kind, knowledgeable, and empathetic.
Dr. Kwak is a very caring person who takes the time to explain everything and answer questions. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
I enjoyed Dr. Kwak. She was personable, answered my questions and was very thorough.
Very thorough, professional, and friendly especially given the short appointment time.
I was glad to find Dr. Kwak. She is gentle, yet direct. She is both educational and easy to talk with. I was also very pleased with their use of technology. I plan to stay with her from here on.
Everything went smoothly and she described all the options very clearly for me.
I found her to be very warm and professional. Her nurse/P.A. was also wonderful. Fast, painless, we even had a few giggles.
Very competent and considerate. She was very good at explaining things.
Dr. Kwak is very intelligent, professional and direct. That said, she is not cold at all, just very together. She is very clear about what she is doing and is responsive to the patients needs
Dr. Kwak was pleasant, professional, and really cared. She identified my problem quickly. Her assistant was knowledgable also. Office staff was really nice. Possibly the shortest wait I've ever had when seeing a doctor! Didn't "work" me for additional visits. Answered all my questions. Five stars without a doubt!
Everything went smoothly and Dr. Kwak is great!!
Dr. Kwak has helped me immensely with my skin issue. I would recommend her and am very glad I found her for my dermatologist.
She is a competent, caring professional.
Dr. Kwak is an excellent dermatologist. Her treatment rid me of acne :)
Dr. Kwak is great. I've seen other doctors at Knott Street and I like her because of her friendly bedside manner.
She is an intelligent, kind professional. I would highly recommend her. I was only in the office for forty minutes and was treated with great respect.
I ended up needing to take a sick child to the pediatrician relatively soon after my appointment time, and let the front desk staff know that I had some time constraints. I had practically no wait time before my name was called, and Dr. Kwok then came right away to the exam room. She was very thorough, answered all of my questions and offered helpful information. I left extremely appreciative of the quality of care that I received and with how respectful the office staff was of my time and my need for efficiency to get home for my sick kiddo's appt. I highly recommend Dr. Kwok!
Thank you Dr Kwak! You are always so personalable and caring each time I see you. Thank you for taking the time to help me with the spot--
professional, well spoken, good info.
She knows her stuff! Explains things clearly. I have recommended her to my wife.
Great experience.
Very personable; extremely knowledgable. Nice sense of humor; listens carefully to the patient.
She was everything the other reviews I read said about her. She was professional, thorough, and took time to make sure she answered all my questions.
Dr Kwak is always upbeat and very caring. She explains our options in a way That is easily understood and with empathy. We love her!!!
She did exactly what I asked, was nice fast and professional
Dr. Kwak was great. I was in and out in record time while not feeling rushed, having all my questions answered and a thorough exam. Would definitely recommend her!
She answered all of my questions. She gave me names of products that I can find at my local store to help my condition. She also gave me straight up advice that moisturizers don't work for wrinkles!
This was my first visit to a dermatologist, so she was a new doctor to me as well. Very very excellent doctor/professional.
Receptionist was great, the nurse and Dr. Kwak. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Service was not rushed. Thanks!
I like her very much..... I feel this is one doctor who knows her profession quite well.
Dr. Kwak was very professional and informative. I would definately recommend.
Very professional, knowledgeable, friendly. Felt assured and respected.
Loved it!
The visit went well beginning with the person at the reception desk. She was very pleasant. The assistant to Dr. Kwak was also very nice and personable. Dr. Kwak was very personable and answered all my questions. Nice experience as a first timer at that office and with Dr. Kwak. :-)
I was seen quickly and given options for treatment. She communicates very well and clearly. I will be going back.
She's great - answered all my questions in a knowledgable manner. Warm and friendly presence.
Efficient and courteous.
I thought Dr. Kwak was great. Courteous, knowledgeable and quick! The office was extremely nice as well as the staff.

I have been nothing but happy with my experiences with Dr. Kwak. She is knowledgeable, friendly, thorough, informative and very plain spoken when discussing my medical concerns with me.
Dr. Kwak was amazing. She was very soft spoken but very through. She came highly recommended and I would highly recommend her to anyone I know.
Staff and Dr, Kwak was very professional and pleasant.
I think I got entirely too many emails and text messages leading up to it and following it. A confirmation email and one reminder the day before would be suffient.
Great. She's very professional and knowledgeable. She also took time to answer my questions thoroughly.
very knowledgeable and gives options for care plans.
Dr. Kwak is very nice, sensitive and empathetic. She asks thorough questions and gives thorough answers, careful to explain the pros and cons to all the options. Since I've been seeing her, she's resolved multiple issues that have vastly improved how comfortable I am in my own skin.
She is very professional--very kind.
Very professional, learned some items I need to consider.
Outstanding. Very professional and very knowledgable.
She is excellent
She was very professional and explained things to me.
She is Fabulous.
Very impressed with Dr. Kwak. She was knowledgeable, efficient, and very pleasant. I felt she knew what my issue was right away and was competent and kind.
Fantastic medical professional
I think it was a little rushed and impersonal. She is nice, but very little time is spent in the visit.
Dr Kwak is wonderful! She is so pleasant to be around and answered all of my questions very professionally with a friendly bedside manner. I look forward to going to see her next year and I've always dreaded going to the dermatologist. Not anymore!!
Excellent attention and care. Very competent.
She is very thorough and informative. I really liked her and her assistant.
She is professional yet extremely personable. She answered questions in detail and explained treatment options clearly. She puts one at ease quickly. She is the type of doctor you would trust to care not only for yourself but for your loved ones.
Dr. Kwak is warm and personable. She chided me for not wearing sunblock on cloudy days in a light, humorous manner.
Very nice easy to understand
She was delightfully kind and professional.
I was really impressed with how quickly I was seen and with Dr. Kwak's professionalism. I was also impressed that she recommended a simple procedure and was able to perform it right away, which prevented me from having to make another appointment.
I really liked this doctor. She's great but make sure that you are assertive and ask all of your questions otherwise she will assume that you don't have any. She solved all of my skin (adult acne) problems without needing a second opinion.
Dr. Kwak is very friendly and gives a very thorough visit. It's a pleasure to see her.
She gave us a lot of information, and respected my 9-year old's privacy surrounding her body, and had different choices for treatment. My daughter would definitely see Dr. Kwak again.
Since I was a new patient of hers, I was slightly nervous at first not knowing what or who to expect. I was quickly at ease with her staff, thoroughness of her questions and She was very professional, knowledgable and I felt comfortable that I was being seen by her. I do recommend her to anyone young or old, nervous or not. She's good. The whole experience was good from initial appointment to the wiping up of the blood. :o) Good job.
I was extremely impressed. She was very personable, And pleasure to work with. I was very happy with my entire experience.
She's the perfect balance of warmth and professionalism...
She was delightful and professional.
Quick service and very thorough. Patient answering my questions as well.
Dr. Kwak was very professional and thorough in explaining the skin problem I have. I would definitely schedule a visit to see her in the future and highly recommend her to others in need of quality dermatology advice.
I like Dr. Kwak a lot. She's thorough and pleasant, and I feel like I walk out of her office with every confidence that she is keeping my moles in check. I spend a lot of time in the sun and am concerned about developing skin cancer. Dr. Kwak looks at every little bit to make sure that I stay cancer-free. I feel like the office and nursing staff could do a better job of handling appointments. I asked for a full skin review, and was asked by her nurse "Do you just want her to look at the parts you're concerned about?" If I'm going to take time out of my schedule and drive across town to my once-a-year appt, you can be sure that I'd like her to look at my whole skin. The nurse went on to do a really great job numbing up my leg for a biopsy and was quite nice. Also, I scheduled my appt. on ZocDoc and then realized within 10 minutes that I needed to reschedule, so I called the office and they cancelled my appointment, and then called me back later to tell me that they wanted to charge me $50 for not cancelling within 24 hours of the appt. time. Since I made the appt. the same day, that was ludicrous. I am hoping they change their approach. Dr. Kwak did a surgery on my leg last year, and it was fast, relatively painless, and I recovered very quickly. So, I highly recommend her, and am willing to go through the trouble of a less than helpful staff to see her.
She has an absolutely wonderful bedside manner with children. She has seen both my 6 year old and 2 year old. She is very soothing and is always asking them if they are doing okay. She is very good at engaging them in conversation so that they do not get nervous. She is just a wonderful, caring and thoughtful person.

According to Joseph Schiavo, a simple layout and neutral design elements create a harmonious space and he provides these ideas for toning down a hectic room:
Designer Ashli Mizell helps homeowner Peggy Friend convert her chaotic living room into a serene sanctuary:
Schiavo thinks a room has to be as simple as you can manage to serve its purpose. It should look as if nothing needs to be done so select things that are easy to maintain and if something isn't working, remove it.
Be extremely sensitive to how colors are communicating with one another in order to create a space that's in harmony. Use a fairly neutral color palette, but that doesn't mean that it has to be just cream — it can be all shades of a color with other colors introduced as well.
This living room is certainly attractive, but it's definitely not calming. Lots of clutter and bright colors don't put the homeowner at ease.
The difference is clear. Where there once was harsh color and disorganized furniture, there's now peacefulness and simplicity. It's definitely a room that's easy on the eyes and ultimately more relaxing.

Dec 20, 2012Muse love taking risks, it seems. With The Resistance, and the recent 2nd Law, Muse have expanded their musical range and compensated some fans along the way. Though as a proud lover of Muse (especially their earlier music, Origin of Symmetry being their masterclass in music), The Resistance is one of their poorer releases, and that goes without question. Forgetting the Exogenesis Symphony (beauty defined), The Resistance has some risky releases from Muse, but still managed to be a solid release worthy of a 7 at bare-minimum for effort, and risk factor.
Opening with the wonderfully powerful, clearly messaged Uprising, a progressive rock anthem designed for the heights of stadium tours, The Resistance seems promising. Gritty guitars, sci-fi electronics, the works. Then comes Resistance, a song so worthy of single material, it goes without saying that Resistance is a solid track. Undisclosed Desires follows, an experimental track setting the boundary for singles the follow, including Madness from The 2nd Law. One of the weaker tracks, Undisclosed Desires is a love-or-hate piece. Personally, I feel the album track is fine, though live it falls to Matt's ego.
The album then take a small turn into piano-induced territory, with the brilliant (and Queen-influenced) United States of Eurasia. A beautifully striking piece, with some mastery piano work, one could never dislike such a perfect design. Though potentially ruining the flow of the album and making it difficult to progress, this is one track which will surely go down in history as one of Muse's finest pieces. Though followed with Guiding Light, we're back into cheese territory. Undoubtedly a difficult track to sit through, Guiding Light is a mess, with extra helpings of brie.
Now we're thrown back into the heavy stuff, with the flawless Unnatural Selection and the meaty MK Ultra, both driven by ridiculous but catchy riffs, impressive vocals, superbly arranged lyrics, and powerful bass surely to impress even the masters of rock. Two amazing tracks worth of Muse acclaim, and definitely some of the greatest works Muse have thrown out there in a good few years. This is what Muse are made of, right here. We're thrown into the deep end yet again, however, with I Belong To You, a piece so ridiculously out of proportion, you're not sure what to think. Personally, I think it's great. A fun track not meant to be taken seriously. Then we're given the Exogenesis Symphony, a beautiful, flawless, three-piece symphony of piano, strings, guitar and stunning vocals. If not the greatest achievement of Muse since Citizen Erased, a perfect end to a great album overall.
The Resistance won't be to everyone's liking, but it has elements so magical, it can easily put you under a spell. Whatever that spell may be, of course. You'll either love The Resistance, or despise it.

Jan 31, 2013After a long journey in search of finding and inhabiting new worlds, we've finally done it. We can proudly call ourselves free and never look back to the past or maybe we should just once, while telling our offspring the glorious story or how we got to where we are now. No better way to do that then to play The Resistance. A masterpiece by muse, even though it is, by some, founded awful, pretentious and well, too much, is conquering the walls that our minds have, those that have to be shattered. A love story, a story that hides the codes of our salvation, is engraved into this musically wonderful album that one, who has any interest in serious music or isn't so overly obsessed with radiohead that he/she disses every step muse make, can't deny. This symphonic blessing slaps you so hard in the head it is tough to realize the minor flaws it has to offer. But all is forgotten, if there is something to forgive, when the symphony arrives. The Exogenesis is the best, most beautiful, pretentious (this, when describing muse, is somehow a good thing - and well it is) piece of music The resistance has to offer. It is definitely the most profound piece of music I've heard in the previous decade, not exaggerating. It's surely not in my interest to slam everyone else nor am I so obsessed with them that I can't hear the real deal, but hearing this song gives you the chills you could only experience while your invocation is being answered. Maybe I am talking too much about it but this is one of the best songs ever written. Other highlight is the United states of Euroasia. This wonderful song is brought to the heights of grandeur and sumptuosity by it's instrumental, let's call it, chorus. With influences from Queen, muse have, kind of, established a more artistic version of art rock. The songs aiming just as high, but incapable of reaching them are I belong to you, Uprising who are not bad but are lacking some elements to make them ready for shipment. This album, maybe not as good as the previous three, contains the very best work modern music could offer us, in many minds covered by clouds and fog which are disabling them to hear it. The grandiosity is here, quality as well, but more of the highlighted would've made it complete.… Expand
Sep 30, 2010Honestly, I wanted to like Muse. But again, most of the songs just not fit in, or feel like rock 'n' roll songs. I can't really see how Muse can be a 'rock band' with all those electro/techno noises coming from around while playing the guitar and drums. Rock is about the passion and groove and what I hear at Muse is just a fail attempt at rock. Also, the singer's voice isn't really the best one I ever heard. But again, most rock bands sound like this nowadays, which is really sad. You can rate this review as unhelpful, because you are either a Muse fan or someone who likes this kind of music, but you're turning your backs to what rock 'n' roll should sound like. AC/DC? The Rolling Stones? Van Halen? Cream? Jimy Hendrix? Do these ring any bell?… Expand
Sep 17, 2010After Black holes & revalations i wondered if muse had lost it but they came back with an un-appreciated masterpiece. ignore Uprising and this is not commercialised one bit.Truly Great
Feb 7, 2011It is truly amazing how one band can go from furious, honest, passionate, aggressive, but often beautiful music to this sell-out, rip-off, sickening piece of pointlessness. This is one of the cheapest, laziest, most revolting albums I've ever heard, and from a band I worshipped as a teenager. It makes me sick. Not one original moment, and in particular the singles are totally hollow, lifeless, chart-seeking objects of utter shame (hopefully) for the band. 1.8 points awarded for 'MK Ultra' and some memorable moments, like the first minute of 'Resistance' (that is, before it shamelessly and ridiculously explodes into dancing on poor Freddie Mercury's grave, just like - oh I shudder to even say it - United States of Eurasia), and 0.2 points for sheer effort, particularly in 'Exogenesis' (but then again, it's always seemed to me that, because Bellamy starting writing the symphony long before the other songs, the rest of the album could just be filler, to make more money out of releasing his 'work of genius'). But, I was right, unfortunately, about 'BH&R' - that Bellamy was forgetting about the music and letting his immature obsession with very vague and half-hearted themes of opression, conspiracy take over, and blah, blah, blah, I'm boring myself even writing this. What a terrible album. I'm off to listen to the 'Dead Star / In Your World' EP I just bought and sing along with the words "MUSE DIED AFTER ABSOLUTION, MUSE DIED AFTER ABSOLUTION..."… Expand
Aug 18, 2010Their resistance was good, even with their uprising!! Best songs ad album ever by Muse! I've only heard like 5 songs, and out of those 5 songs I must say: Excellent and well done! Awesome rock songs going on with Muse
Sep 5, 2010this album is Muse's best. I had never heard of them until this album came out, and I was surprised at how good they were. Some people will just buy uprising, resistance, and undisclosed desires, but if you want the full experience, go buy the whole album.
Sep 20, 2010The most classically themed album from the Devon trio, it falls heavily from being unoriginal, unexciting and uninspired but does manage to keep Muse's over the top attitude towards their own work which still makes it a worth while listen.
Dec 29, 2010The best album of 2009. The best concert I attended in 2010. I've been listening to Muse since 2003 when Absolution came out and they were a featured artist on Yahoo Music. I was blown away by them with songs like "Stockholm Syndrome" and "Time is Running Out." I am a sucker for magnificent, multi-layered, orchestral and ambient production. Muse has perfected it. And while they wrote great songs a decade ago, they are one of the rarest breeds who continue to grow and improve their near perfection every time they record something new. The Resistance opens with a relatively weak song for Muse with a repetitive, mundane beat in "Uprising," which made me concerned about this CD. Until I heard it...Within the construct of the entire album, every song melts into the next with perfect segueing. By the time I'm listening to "Undisclosed Desires," I am completely hooked. Their heavy Queen influence on "United States of Eurasia" is undeniable. From there, their symphonic brilliance carries throughout the rest of the album. Musical perfection.… Expand
Dec 4, 2010The Resistance is different sounding from Muse's predecessor's Black Holes And Revelations and Absolution. They somewhat slowed down on the rock and went for more the singing. Matt Bellamy's voice has definitely matured form their previous album. A few great tracks are Mk Ultra, Uprising, Unnatural Selection, and the beautiful 3-part symphony Exogenesis. All In All, The Resistance shows another side of Muse that sounds really good. B… Expand
Feb 13, 2011worst muse album, but still good
1st half is amazing uprising, resistance, undisclosed desires, but second half is not so good the only really good song is unnatural selection and exogenesis symphony was big disappointment
Feb 19, 2011Some of the critics who reviewed this album seem to fit into the group of people who think that Muse is trying to be like Radiohead and instantly dislike them for it even though they aren't trying to be like Radiohead because neither band sounds anything alike and both are amazing for their own reasons. This album is incredible; the three part symphony at the end completely blew me away. Keep doing what you're doing Muse, obviously you must be doing something right since you just won the Grammy for best rock album, despite Rolling Stone asking "what is the point of Muse?" Yea, you can **** off Rolling Stone.… Expand
Feb 20, 2011I don't really know were to begin. Although Muse never fail to deliver i do feel this album lacks. Through track 1-7 you do hear the 'sound of Muse' , for the most part. With riffs from 'Unatural Selection' and the end of 'MK Ultra' reminding you why you love this band so much, and lyrical content from such tracks as 'Uprising' and 'Resistance' that make you want to march to the areas of the world that do not accept you for who you are and simply hand them the Muse back catalogue as a sign of peace. This album mostly offers stunning sound, creation and emotion that only bands like Muse can give.But the first negative i'd like to point out is the Exogenisis Symphony, but not for is creation, effort or simply fasinating composition but simply for the fact it's on the album at all. I feel it takes up what could have been another 3 rock songs. After track 8 i'm left wanting more individuals, more of that - what's coming next feeling, but instead i get one BIG masterpiece. That you would think would be a good thing, but this is not the case. The second negative i'd like to make clear is one track, and one track alone. 'I Belong To You', considering this is the last song on the 'album' (excluding the Symphony) it does not seal the package, it leaves me with a sence of - what the hell was that ? Muse are ROCK, they create rock music, rock music with a twist, with sounds not used by any another band, but 'I Belong To You' is just POP music, pop music that sells, pop music used in terrible films, it's lyrically bland, it gives you no feelings, no memories and no inspiration. Overall this album is worth the money and time. It's creative but not confusing, loud but not deafening, vocally impressive and an all round memorable album.… Expand
Jul 27, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Great work. Muse delivers an album full of great songs. The main theme throughout the album is love (maybe Uprising as the exception) but it's not soapy. The music is beautiful and proves the excellent technical level that Muse members reached. Now on, they can do almost anything!… Expand
May 6, 2011No, just no. This is not as good as the sounds of Origin of Symmetry, SHowbiz and Absolution... for me this is the second album in a musical depression.
May 31, 2011The more I listen, the more I love it. Uprising, Resistance, and Undisclosed Desires are what get you hooked, but I enjoy the whole CD rather than just the 3 singles.
May 31, 2011Questions have been raised over whether Muse had become too predictable. This album proved them wrong. There was the traditional rock sound, with graceful, piano fueled scores and a three piece symphony to finish. A very good album
Jan 30, 2012Muse, being one of the best bands on the planet, have a let down with their new LP The Resistance. With Black Holes & Revelations there was some sort of progression and variety in those catalog of songs. Where The Resistance fails is it's power in creating something new and different; it is more "been there, done that."
Aug 27, 2011With every subsequent listen this album just amazes me more and more. It starts out with two songs that, while not quite 'mainstream rock', have the usual rock and roll style. Undisclosed Desires is my surprise favorite, with a really jolting guitar rhythm that becomes almost addictive after a while. After that is strays almost into neo-classical territory with United States of Eurasia / Collateral Damage and I Belong to You, while also continuing with the progressive rock in Guiding Light and Unnatural Selection. Then it finishes with a literal bang with the massively ambitious Exogenesis Symphony, that could have, in the wrong hands, been unmeasurably awful. However Muse does it just right, and makes The Resistance an album that cannot be missed.… Expand
Sep 10, 2011This is very hard work Muse has done for their audience. What a great band, but listening to stuff like this, we start to wonder why rock is so underrated and why everyone goes and listens to stuff like pop and hip-hop.
Jul 27, 2011Ladies and gentleman - this is what I call a masterpiece. It's not easy to produce a song that would make me cry, but there are two from this album that actually made me cry. (Well, Chopin and Beethoven are my kryptonite, Bellamy must've known that). A bit of classical music, a bit of rock and a lot of power. Whether you like Muse or not - it is good to know this album. This is how history is made.… Expand
Sep 20, 2011The resistance is still great but it is the weakest album from muse, a good amount of the songs feel like samples(like the last three songs) they couldve put more effort into this. Muse is a great band and their not at their full potential here.

Sep 24, 2011This is incredibly bad, even for Muse. In this album, there is nothing that sounds like the band, everything sounds as if the songs had been taken from another band's record, and in particular from Queen's.
Jun 29, 2012Making one stuff over and over again may get you to mainstream but may not rise your music advances the least thing to be cared about was the concept of this album far more complex but still better than Nickelback
Aug 26, 2012UPDATED REVIEW!!! I decided to re-listen to the album, and this time I ended up really enjoying it. I am a fan of MUSE's work, and this is a must have for fans.
Nov 2, 2011It's funny how when a band starts to experiment, many just write it off of becoming commercial, which is actually quite the opposite of what Muse did here.
At the beginning, we are lead through Muse's entire discography, with Uprising going more with the power-ballads of Absolution and Resistance mixing those with other albums. Little by, little we begin to get bits and pieces of classical pieces, some taking on a full ending of a track, which all leads to Matt's dream of a symphony piece, bringing it all together in a grand finale.… Expand
Jan 17, 2012One of the best albums of Muse, great sound as always, and the parts of Exogenesis closed this album in a great way. Amazing job, hope they'll continue like this.
Apr 26, 2012A beautiful album. The classical music compositions are astounding! The orchestrations are amazing too!! "Undisclosed Desires" is sexy and so rock n' roll, and "United States of Eurasia" is soft and very beautiful. Geniuses.
Oct 4, 2012IT'S SO HARD TO RESIST THE RESISTANCE! What an epic mixture of symphonic rock, new prog and classic rock. Matthew Bellamy knows what he's doing and he does it right every time. Best things about this album? The entire concept of singing about Illumanti, Resistance, Undisclosed Desires, United States of Eurasia, I Belong to You and Exogenesis: Symphony (listen to this three-part song and you will fall in love with Muse).… Expand
Dec 17, 2012A good Muse album, definitely not their best but contains some excellent songs and is very well structured, a good listen that I'd recommend to all Muse fans.
Apr 28, 2014There are moments where it can sound too much like one thing, and others where it simply might not be enough, but as well as that, there can be the rare moment of reward, and primarily, there's still that familiar sound of a band still on the roll.
Oct 13, 2014The songs on the album sound nothing alike, and some just aren't that great, but I'm giving props to Muse to experimenting and being bold and bombastic. It takes guts to put a "Symphony" at the end of your rock album. Bravo. Favorite track: Undisclosed Desires
"Black Holes and Revelations" may be a more commercial record, but The Resistance is Muse's most realized effort to date.
As it stands it's an indulgent and, at times, gorgeous listen that merely helps restate your concrete opinions about Muse.
While not their best, it's decent enough to ensure there'll be more-- even though the truly off-the-wall moments are either rare or misguided, meaning the record feels slightly anonymous.

Man cited for vandalizing Dorset quarryJuly 25,2014DORSET - A New York man has been cited for unlawful mischief after police said he was found vandalizing the grounds of a local quarry.
Timothy Sweetman, 43, of Broadalbin, N.Y., was found in the quarry, off Route 30, on July 23 cutting down brush and trees. Sweetman was cited to appear in Bennington criminal court on Sept. 22.
Broadalbin is almost 70 miles from Dorset.
Police began investigating around the Fourth of July weekend after the quarry's owner, Dick McDonough, complained that someone had been cutting down what he described as "substantial" amounts of brush without his knowledge or permission.
McDonough said there were stacks of dead vegetation that had been left on his property which cost him a lot to have hauled away.
While McDonough said at the time that he wanted to keep the quarry open and free for the public to use, he said that if the vandalism continued, he would be forced to consider closing it.
In a statement, McDonough said he hoped the arrest would any further similar incidents.
"We have allowed the public to share and enjoy the Dorset quarry for over 15 years. While maintaining the quarry and keeping it open has posed a number of challenges, the fact that some individual(s) took it upon themselves to cut down hundreds of trees and bushes, without our permission, was extremely disturbing. Whoever did the extensive cutting has compromised the safety of quarry users by opening up areas of greater risk. We sincerely hope that the recent arrest by the (Vermont) State Police will act as a deterrent against further wrongdoing and misbehavior in the quarry," he said.

St. Croix Estate Rental Photos and Description
Estate, 4 Bedrooms, 4 Baths, (Sleeps 8), plus room for 2 (rollaway bed & daybed)
Ideally located along scenic Northshore Road and a mere 300' from the ocean and sandy beach, Estate Cane Bay is a perfect place to relish island life. Lay back and enjoy the quiet solitude of the north shore from the covered gallery and negative edge pool. Or take a short walk from the estate house to Cane Bay Beach famous for its superb diving and snorkeling and a destination point for most visitors to St. Croix. Five restaurants which offer great food, a friendly beach-bar attitude, and live music are located in the sleepy settlement that comprises the Cane Bay area, so consider 'cooking optional'; however Estate Cane Bay's Great Room styled kitchen/living/dining space is fully appointed for those who love to play in the kitchen.
The lush and tropical beauty of the un-populated Northwest coast of St. Croix will surround you. Take a drive thru the tropical rain forest, visit historic sites, museums and the rum factory, and enjoy the colonial Danish architecture of Christiansted and Frederiksted towns....both a scenic drive away...or arrange a sailboat adventure to Buck Island National Park. There is no shortage of cool things to do in and around Estate Cane Bay.

About Donna & Linn
We have been traveling to the Caribbean since 1979 when we were married about 5 years and finally had enough money saved for a honeymoon. In fact, St. Croix was our first vacation outside the continental US, and the first island upon which we stepped foot. We were awestruck at the clear waters, colorful fish and sun drenched white sand beaches. We are happy to say that some things don't change much.
The largest of the 3 US Virgin Islands, St. Croix combines the best of other two resulting in a 'destination' all its own. And, after traveling to many, many other islands since 1979 including owning property on St. John, USVI, we have chosen to return to the quiet serenity of St. Croix. A tropical island without the hype of multiple cruiseships docked each day and mega resorts, St. Croix is not over-run by tourism and the locals aren't burned out in the wake. Friendliness abounds and visitors are welcomed with a smile and sincere 'good morning'. We likewise welcome you to our home-away-from-home.
In our opinion, Christiansted town, a 20 minute oceanside drive from our home, is the nicest Caribbean city we have encountered. Authentic in its historical danish colonial architecture and beautifully situated on a gorgeous harbor where sailboat lanyards clang in the gentle breeze and fishing and snorkel boats await their next adventurers there is just enough of everything there...museums, restaurants, shops and boutiques and even a Friday night street festival and parade if you happen to be there at just the right time.
Donna & Linn purchased this estate in 2011
Why Donna & Linn chose St. Croix
We love the laid-back attitude of Cane Bay, our proximity to a secluded beach just steps from our deck and pool, the sounds and sight of the Caribbean sea in our front yard. Cane Bay is like no other area on the island. It is the essence of tropical island living. No hussle...no bussle....no hassle. Lush mountains fall into the sea, small family run restaurants and dining places dot the coast, and friendly down-to-earth people, many of whom have lived their entire life on this wonderful island, await you. Drift to sleep to the sound of tree frogs croaking and awake to the roosters' crow. And if horses strolling down the road along the beach doesn't charm you, perhaps the dolphins and whales that can be spotted breaching the water just in front of the house will.
A real sense of history surrounds our home and this community starting with the historical landing place of Columbus on his second journey to the new world a couple of miles down the road....to the plantation ruins which dot the hillsides literally surrounding our home. If the hills could speak...the stories told would no doubt be chilling. This intrigues us and you will enjoy some of the books we keep at the house to remind us of the past - both good and bad.
What makes this estate unique
Quiet and remote, lush and tropical; so close to the ocean you can listen to the waves break all day and night; walking distance to five eateries and world class dive sites.

Avoid creating PPTP default routes
To anyone looking to do this, I recommend using the hint directly above me (the end of the thread) rather than the one at the beginning of the thread. The one at the end is very elegant, works perfectly and gives great control. In short, it is the "right" way to do this under os x (at least 10.3.4 on- didn't try anything in earlier versions). The original hint is more of a hack (and didn't work for me- internet connect complained).
Avoid creating PPTP default routes
this looks very promising, but i'm too much of a newbie to implement it. i was hoping it would fix the following problem: when i connect into my work VPN, i lose internet connection and am not able to access websites, use iChat, etc... i was hoping someone might take my hand and walk me through...
Then, to patch up routing you need an ip-up and an ip-down. Here, we assume that your remote network has two independent class C subnets, a.b.c1/24 and a.b.c2/24. If your remote has a single class B, you would use a.b/16, and so on.uh??? what the hell is a class C or a class B? how do I find out which one my Win XP box at work (which I VPN into) has?
/etc/ppp/ip-up: #!/bin/sh /sbin/route -n add -net a.b.c1 $IPREMOTE >> /tmp/ppp.log 2>&1 /sbin/route -n add -net a.b.c2 $IPREMOTE >> /tmp/ppp.log 2>&1 /etc/ppp/ip-down: #!/bin/sh route -n delete -net a.b.c1 $IPREMOTE >> /tmp/ppp.log 2>&1 route -n delete -net a.b.c2 $IPREMOTE >> /tmp/ppp.log 2>&1am i supposed to substitute $IPREMOTE with that win xp machine's IP address? or leave it as is?
Patching DNS is even easier. There's a special set of redirects in /etc/resolver. Add appropriate ones for your VPN.how do i find out what the "appropriate ones for your VPN" are? are these the same DNS servers that my work win xp box has in its LAN properties? anything else in this that I am supposed to substitute with my own values?? thanks in advance!
Avoid creating PPTP default routes
Yeah, he's using network admin terms. A Class C network is simply one who's subnet mask would be 255.255.255.0 , So if the network was 192.168.1.0 with 255.255.255.0, it would be a class C network describing all addresses between 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.1.254.
Avoid creating PPTP default routes
To clarify a bit further, in my ip-up I have
Re: Avoid creating PPTP default routes
Also to the guy wondering why anyone does this, basically if you are connecting to a VPN (Virtual Private Network), internet connect routes all your traffic through the private network by default...
I'm using Panther 10.3.8 and VPN without customizations but I am not getting the default route changed. The default route instead remains the local public network that I was connected to before connecting to my VPN server. Has the behavior of VPN changed since these postings were written?
I'm trying to do what everyone in this thread is trying to avoid, that is, set my default route to my VPN server when I'm on a particular network.
Re: Avoid creating PPTP default routes
This is still a problem for me with 10.3.8. I used these hints and they worked perfectly for me. You can following these hints and create a file in /etc/ppp/peers with the option defaultroute instead of nodefaultroute. Look at the posts above to see what I mean.

text: Poll: 67% of Americans Don't Believe Gun Ban Would Prevent Sandy Hook Print article Send a Tip by Mike Flynn 30 Jan 2013 post a comment According to a new Reason-Rupe poll released today, just 27% of Americans believe that an assault weapons ban would have helped prevent the tragedy at Sandy Hook in Newtown, CT. 67% of Americans believe that the ban, which expired in 2004, would not have prevented the tragic shooting. Overall, the poll finds Americans far more skeptical of gun control laws than the Democrats and media assume. Asked what the government's response to the Newtown shooting should be, just 16% said "stricter gun control." 21% said the federal government shouldn't do anything in response, while 20% said the federal government should act to increase security in schools. Despite the wall-to-wall media coverage and the President's bully pulpit, the American public understands that preventing tragic shootings like Newtown is far more complicated than simply passing new gun laws. On Obama's signature issue, an assault weapons ban, just 44% of Americans think these weapons should be banned. A solid majority, 52%, believe politicians are exploiting the Newtown tragedy for their own political ends. It should be noted that the Reason poll has a heavy Democrat tilt. 36% of respondents identify with the Democrat party, while only 22% identify as Republicans. Also, a majority of respondents, 54%, are not gun owners. The Democrats have tried to paint supporters of gun rights as a "fringe" element of the public. The American public clearly does not agree with this assessment. The left, in its zeal for gun control, has run far further down-field than the American public on this issue. If they pursue this course, they will likely face severe headwinds going into 2014 elections. Follow me on twitter

be attached to a commodity that is essentially valueless? As discussed above, the data notebooks of a researcher may be kept by him/her upon departure from a lab; in other laboratories, they are kept as property of the laboratory and placed in a common archive. In a molecular biology laboratory, these archival databooks may on very rare occasion be perused to determine the origin and derivation of a reagent in current use (e.g., a gene clone).
Because of all this, it seems clear that any convention that may eventually be promulgated in order to impose standardized data ownership and/or storage practices will not arise because of operational requirements of the research itself, but because of extra-scientific considerations such as the need to make all research programs easily accessible to those interested in auditing them, or to document patent claims that may derive from such research.
The long-term trends governing these practices are undoubtedly moving toward increased distribution of reagents and certain classes of results. It is still unclear to what extent these standards will be widely imposed by journals and/or granting agencies. Within limits, these changes will have a salutary effect on the progress of science as a whole. Care must be taken, however, to avoid extreme and rigid rules that will work inadvertently to reduce the motivations of individual researchers to carry out certain types of research or to hamper their flexibility to strike up advantageous collaborations with peers to whom they have given special access to unique reagents. In a larger sense, one must be careful not to hobble a research enterprise that over the past two decades has proven among the most productive, creative, and cost-effective in the history of science.

I may bump some of her songs but like I said that damn ego/attitude of hers needs to be deflated. Like u said she's a big hypocrite. "I'm not writing lyrics bout any female rapper in the game" Bahahaha. Good one Nicki. Gurl who r those lyrics for then? Nicki needs to realize that every hit artist ain't gonna stay hot. Every artist that's successful has a peak and slows down. It's gonna be funny as hell when she starts embodying those statements that came/come out of her mouth.

I was lucky enough to get a variety pack of granola from Gatherers Gourmet Granola recently. I wanted to make a fun recipe with the granola, but it was hard for me because I love granola so much simply with some yogurt and fresh fruit. How can you add the granola to a recipe while still making it granola-y and also awesome? I ended up being inspired by the pecans, maple syrup, and toasted coconut in the "squirrel bait" flavor of granola to do something with sweet potatoes. I took inspiration from the classic Italian move of putting amaretti cookies into squash raviolis, but swapped out the cookies for granola with fantastic results. The flavor and textural play that was going on in these ravioli were absolutely phenomenal, and Mandi and I savored every single bite! It isn't exactly a summer dish, but it really hit the spot after a long Monday. Gatherers Gourmet Granola wanted me to tell you guys about their new Kickstarter campaign that is going on right now. They are trying to raise some cash to make some new gluten free varieties.
Roughly chop up the granola to go inside and on top of the ravs.
Sweet potat, parm, and granola for the ravioli insides.
I havn't made ravioli in awhile and it was really enjoyable! Almost therapeutic.
Some water goes down on the bottom layer to help everything stick.
Press the pasta tight to get all the air out.
Then the ravioli cutter goes to work.
Laied out on a lightly floured sheet.
To start the sauce, a little sausage, then some onion and butter in a pan.
Let the onion get nicely browned before adding garlic. Then the cream goes in.
Very gentley toss the ravioli in the sauce, being careful not to break any!
These ravioli were pure comfort food.
Creamy, crunchy, and deep deep flavors. The granola on the inside of the ravioli got a little soggy in a nice way, to add a fun chewey texture to the inside of the raviolis. the granola on top was still super crunchy which made for a fun textural contrast.
3 sweet potatoes, cooked
1 cup gatherers gourmet "squirrel bait" granola, rough chopped
1/2 cup grated parm
2 tablespoons butter
Mix the ingredients until combined and butter is melted in.
Pasta recipe
Make your ravioli before starting the sauce. Bring some salted water to a boil.
1 italian sausage
1/2 a red onion, thin sliced into half circles
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup cream
1 tablespoon butter
Remove the sausage from the casing and cook in a hot pan with some oil until crumbled well and browned. Add the onions and butter and cook another 15 minutes to lightly brown the onions. Add the garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add the cream and stir, lifting any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Drop the ravioli into the boiling water and cook only about 3 minutes until floating, being gentle not to break any. Remove the sauce from heat. Add the cooked ravioli directly to the sauce and stir well, again being gentle to not break any. Serve and top with some more chopped up granola.

Making the Living Room Livable
A busy pharmaceutical salesman needs help decluttering his chaotic living room.

Joe Muhlburger's 12 by 18-foot living room is so jam-packed with boxes, sports memorabilia and business materials, there is no room for him to relax, let alone walk around. Though he moved in six months ago, he became so overwhelmed with packing and placing his items that he just stopped.
Professional organizer Liz Witts is brought in to help Muhlburger create a sophisticated yet comfortable room. She plans to make that happen by first forcing him to sort through every single item and decide what should be kept, moved elsewhere in the house or tossed. That's the hardest part, especially since he's such a pack rat.
She also plans to add color with warm wall paint and accessories and multipurpose furniture that will maximize the room's space.
The couch and floor were covered in mounds of clutter, leaving scant room to maneuver about. The room also felt a little dreary and uninviting — the dark furniture pieces and natural lighting were too sharp of a contrast.
Another angle of the large living room shows a framed jersey leaning against the couch on the floor as well as Muhlburger's surfboards and skis (at left) amidst the rest of the mess.
Before the television shared floor space with boxes, the ironing board and other miscellaneous items.

text: Tax It! Maryland Lawmakers Try to Legalize Marijuana Again Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 15 Jan 2014 post a comment On Thursday, three Maryland state Democrats – Delegates Curt Anderson and Sheila Hixson and Senator Jamie Raskin – will try again to legalize marijuana and to regulate and tax it like alcohol. After Colorado and Washington legalized marijuana in 2012, lawmakers in Maryland failed to get a similar bill passed last year. Political analysts do not expect such a bill to be signed into law this year because Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, who is seen as a potential 2016 Democratic presidential candidate and was a former mayor of Baltimore, has implied that though he may be in favor of allowing medicinal uses of marijuana, he would be against legalization of the drug. "I've seen what drug addiction has done to the people of our state and the people of our city," O'Malley said in a January radio interview. According to a poll conducted by the left-leaning Public Policy Polling in September, 53% of voters in Maryland support regulating and taxing marijuana like alcohol while 38% oppose. Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake (D) came out against legalization, saying on Wednesday that she did not support the decriminalization of marijuana like Kurt Schmoke, a previous mayor of Baltimore, had. "I don't think it serves anybody's purpose to clog up the system with this type of offense, but I'm not going to be waving the Schmoke flag of legalization," she said, according to the Baltimore Sun. Groups that want marijuana legalized and regulated have argued that, unlike alcohol, marijuana "does not cause overdose deaths and comes with far fewer long-term health consequences." According to Dan Riffle of the Marijuana Policy Project, "a 2009 Canadian study determined the annual health-related costs associated with alcohol are more than eight times greater per user than with marijuana," while the Institute of Medicine found that "people who use marijuana are far less likely to become dependent than those who drink alcohol." The proposed bill would "remove all criminal and civil penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marijuana and allow the personal cultivation of up to 6 marijuana plants by those over the age of 21." It would outlaw driving under the influence of marijuana and smoking it in public. Members of the Marijuana Policy Coalition of Maryland, which includes the ACLU of Maryland, Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, the League of Women Voters of Maryland, the Marijuana Policy Project, and the Maryland State Conference of NAACP Branches, will be at a press conference Thursday announcing the legislative effort.

Malaysia seeks more tests for dead pygmy elephantsThe Associated Press | February 09,2013KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia An initial chemical analysis on 14 Borneo pygmy elephants that died mysteriously could not conclusively determine if they were poisoned, and more tests will be conducted abroad, an official said Friday.
The endangered elephants were found dead last month in a protected forest in Sabah state on Borneo. Sabah is home to most of the remaining 1,200 Borneo pygmy elephants that exist worldwide. The elephants are feared to have been poisoned because they encroached on Malaysian plantations.
Sabah Environment Minister Masidi Manjun said the states wildlife department would send samples to forensic testing facilities in Thailand and Australia for more comprehensive tests to determine the cause of the elephants deaths.
To ensure greater transparency of the entire issue, my ministry will be seeking a second opinion from other laboratories, he said in a statement.
Samples will be sent immediately to the Ramathibodi Poison Center at Thailands Mahidol University and the chemistry lab of the Queensland Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry in Australia, he said.
Masidi said he had also directed the states chemistry department to expand its scope of tests on more possible chemical contaminants. Department veterinarians have said the elephants suffered severe bleeding and gastrointestinal ulcers.
The wildlife group WWF said last week that the dead elephants were found in areas being converted for plantations within permanent forest reserves, raising the prospect that they were deliberately killed by humans taking over their habitat.
Sabah, one of two Malaysian states on Borneo island, is home to endangered animals including the pygmy elephant, Sumatran rhinoceros and orangutan. Wildlife activists say their numbers have dwindled in recent decades because of illegal poaching and the loss of jungles cut down for timber and development.
Some 60 percent of Sabah is currently under forest cover, but activists say the deforestation rate is rising, with large forest areas slated for conversion to farmland or timber concession.
Masidi said police were in the midst of a very thorough investigation, including probing plantations and logging companies within the vicinity where the dead elephants were found. Two palm oil plantations and a logging company operate in the area.
I hope people would refrain from jumping to conclusions at this point of time and wait until the case is fully investigated to avoid innocent parties being unfairly implicated, he said.MORE IN Wire NewsRALEIGH, N.C.

It's called "Without Judgement" and it's a collection of short strips. Leisure #2 is also for sale at the Beguling on a south-facing rack on the first floor in front of Cash.
WITHOUT JUDGEMENT, LEISURE 1, and LEISURE 2 can all be purchased from my online store: Leisure Comics Store

The Carolina Hurricanes (31-32-9) begin their last 10 games of the season tonight against the Florida Panthers (27-38-8) at 7:30 p.m. The game will be televised on Fox Sports: Carolinas and boradcasted on the radio at 99.9 FM The Fan.
The Hurricanes have won the two previous games including a 5-1 win on Jan. 7.
Hurricanes' LineupJiri Tlusty – Eric Staal – Andrei Loktionov Nathan Gerbe – Jordan Staal – Alexander Semin Jeff Skinner – Riley Nash – Patrick Dwyer Drayson Bowman – Manny Malhotra – Elias Lindholm Andrej Sekera – Justin Faulk John-Michael Liles – Ron Hainsey Brett Bellemore – Jay Harrison Cam Ward/Anton Khudobin Possible Scratches: Mike Komisarek, Radek Dvorak and Justin Peters (Healthy). Panthers' Lineup Sean Bergenheim – Nick Bjugstad – Brad Boyes Tomas Fleischmann – Vincent Trocheck – Scottie Upshall Quinton Howden – Brandon Pirri – Jesse Winchester Krys Barch – Scott Gomez – Jimmy Hayes Brian Campbell – Dmitry Kulikov Ed Jovanoski – Tom Gilbert Dylan Olsen – Colby Robak Roberto Luongo/Scott Clemmenson Possible Scratches: Aleksander Barkov, Tomas Kopecky, Jonathan Huberdeau, Erik Gudbranson, Alex Petrovic (Injured).
Hurricanes' Outlook
The Canes played a team that was down and out on the season, but still lost to the New York Islanders on Tuesday in a terrible fashion. If that teaches anything, it's don't take a team granted.
Obviously, a better start will be needed. Allowing even two goals in the first 11 minutes is rough, and the Hurricanes allowed four.
Andrej Sekera, Justin Faulk and Eric Staal need better efforts, especially in the defensive end. The trio is counted on for a lot and whether that's fair or not, it's how things are.
Cam Ward was pulled after the Isles' third goal, but didn't play that bad. Either way, I would expect Anton Khudobin to get the start in net.
Panthers' Outlook
It's been another rough season in Orlando, as the Panthers will miss the playoffs for the second straight year and 11th in 12 years.
However, there's still hope in the future with Nick Bjugstad, who has 33 points in 67 games. Aleksander Barkov has 24 points in 54 games, but is injured and will miss the game.
The last time the Hurricanes played the Panthers, they had a goaltending tandem of Tim Thomas and Jacob Markstrom. More than a moth later, Roberto Luongo is back and has improved the crease.
The Panthers defeated the Ottawa Senators, 3-2, in their last game and are 3-6-1 in their last 10.
A recap will be posted after the game.
