Just Intonation and the Revitalization of Neoclassicism: Three Works for Baroque Instruments
Date: May 2008
Creator: Figg, Graham Elliot
Description: For a composer of today, the relationship between new music and music from many centuries past remains problematic. In order to create something new, it is necessary to go beyond previous techniques of composition in some way. At the same time, new music that has no connection with music of the past runs the risk of irrelevance. Just tuning offers one possibility for reconciling this problem. By effectively warping music of the past through the lens of altered tuning and contemporary composition techniques, music of the past may be understood in previously unknown ways. Part I, the critical essay, presents historical background and analysis of a cycle of three works in altered/just tuning. Part II presents scores of the works.

Voci Lontani for flute, trumpet, percussion, piano, and string quartet: Critical essay and score.
Date: August 2004
Creator: Goto, Yo
Description: This project consists of an original composition, Voci Lontani, and a critical essay about the composition. In this piece, the idea of musical simultaneity is explored. Therefore, the piece focuses on the idea of contrast: between measured rhythms and indeterminate rhythms, between tonality and atonality, and between musics in separate tempos. In order to explore the significance of musical simultaneity, four important compositional concepts-the simultaneous juxtaposition of different musics, polyrhythmic structure, controlled indeterminacy, and quotation-are discussed. Also, several examples of twentieth-century music that use these concepts are analyzed in the essay.

The Surface: A Synthesis
Date: May 2001
Creator: Willis, Stephen
Description: This paper examines the speech-based musical realization of "The Surface" and its attempt to assimilate the poem at the structural, sonic, and expressive level. The software and analysis/re-synthesis techniques used to create timbres heard in the composition are discussed in detail. In addition to technical and structural issues, the common elements of the two art forms are considered within the context of the digital domain.

Memento mori: Concert for Violoncello and Orchestra
Date: December 2006
Creator: Fakhouri, Fouad K.
Description: Death, as a subject, has been treated extensively throughout history, both in literature as well as in music. The focus of Memento mori is to portray the inevitability of death through music. The first part of the document is an essay exploring the topic of death, its inevitability, unpredictability and the fragility of life. This section also includes a number of examples of composer's whose works have influenced the composition of the piece. The title of the work is meant to reflect that death catches up with all of us and that humans no matter how invincible they feel at certain stages of life will, eventually, succumb to death. The second part of the document is the notated orchestral score. The work is for full orchestra and solo violoncello. It is in three acts that loosely resemble three stages of life; Youth followed by life in adulthood and finally death. The work is not programmatic and the piece's formal structure varies from a traditional concerto, for although comprised of three distinct acts, there are no pauses between them. The entire work is meant to be dark and morbid and the specter of death looms throughout the piece.

A Rhetorical Guide to Ebb
Date: May 2006
Creator: Zajicek, Daniel James
Description: In the essay A Rhetorical Guide to Ebb I explore the diverse array of influences in art, and music that guided the creation of the composition Ebb, for 13 musicians and electronics. Of those influences, the boxes of the American artist Joseph Cornell played a particularly important role. Having based the conceptual framework for Ebb on ideas taken from Cornell, the essay, instead of being driven by a single thesis, involves the creation of conceptual boxes. These conceptual boxes emphasize the influence of the artist Joseph Cornell, along with the composers Iannis Xenakis and Gérard Grisey. In addition, a time line documenting the stages in Ebb's creation is included.

Aesthetic Models and Structural Features in Concerto for Solo Percussion and Concert Band
Date: December 2005
Creator: Anderson, Stephen Reg
Description: Concerto for Solo Percussion and Concert Band was commissioned by Staff Sergeant Rone Sparrow, a percussionist with the West Point Military Academy Band. Funding for the project was provided by the Barlow Foundation. The piece was premiered April 13, 2005 in the Eisenhower Hall Theater at West Point, New York. Rone Sparrow performed with the USMA band, and Colonel Thomas Rotondi Jr., Commander/Conductor, conducted the piece. The concerto consists of three movements, and each movement features a different instrument: the first features marimba, the second, vibraphone, and the third movement features the drum kit together with a rhythm section (piano, bass, and drums). In addition to the piece, the dissertation paper discusses important technical detail related to the piece, including: harmony, form, rhythm, programmatic ideas as they relate to motivic strands, and the process of generating and discarding material. The paper also focuses on a number of factors that were influential to the piece, such as postmodern philosophy.

Creator: Colaruotolo, John
Description: This thesis explores the possibilities of communication in the context of a sound composition. In RevealingReveilingReveling, a series of questions concerning communication posed by John Cage, coupled with an extension of those questions posed by myself, are set to recorded sounds-in-the-world. The intention is to create a greater awareness of that which there is to listen in our world. The first part of this essay discusses influences of philosophical thought during the process of composing RevealingReveilingReveling. Two distinct twentieth-century thinkers that have impacted the creation of this piece and their areas of thought are Martin Heidegger: language and Being; and John Cage: sound, silence, and awareness. The second part of the essay is a structural analysis of the piece, discussing the recording of Cage's questions, sounds-in-the-world, sound-manipulation techniques and thought-processes, as well as periodic mention the aesthetic decisions made.

The Secret Art of Science: An Aural-Based Analysis of Jonty Harrison's Acousmatic Work "Pair/Impair"
Date: August 2004
Creator: Vega, Henry
Description: This paper observes the problems that impede meaningful analysis of form and structure in modern music, specifically electronic music. The premise of this research is to present methods, tools and practice for analyzing music whose visual interpretation, if any, do not represent the aural result of the composition. The means for suggesting a method are derived from documented observations in aural psychology, as well as composers' writings about musical perception. The result is an analytic model that focuses on the aural experience rather than the composers' compositional strategies which do not always agree with the resultant composition. The results from the analysis of music by Parmegiani, Harvey, Vega and Harrison help prove the general applicability of this research.

Prayers of Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication: A Composition for Soprano and Chamber Ensemble
Date: August 2004
Creator: Monroe, Deborah J.
Description: This paper examines the relationship between text and music in Prayers of Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication - a four-movement composition, fourteen minutes in length, for soprano, clarinet, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, violin, double bass, and percussion. The text of the composition is taken from the Psalms and The Book of Common Prayer. The names and themes of the movements follow an ancient pattern for prayer identified by the acronym, A.C.T.S. Compositional considerations are contrasted to those of Igor Stravinsky and Steve Reich, with special emphasis on the use of musical structures, motives, and text-painting to highlight the meaning of religious texts.

Dear Karma Cleanser: I've been a DJ and an avid vinyl collector for about eight years. Two years ago, I met another DJ named Robbie who invited me to play at a house party. While there, I met yet another DJ, who I'll call DJ X, because I can't remember his name.
Toward the end of the party, I was finishing my set and there wasn't anyone in the room with me at the time. So while getting my records together, I noticed that DJ X had a few rare records by a few artists that I like. I quietly slipped the records into my bag and then went out to have a smoke and left shortly thereafter.
A few days later, I got a call from Robbie telling me that DJ X was missing some records and he wondered if I might have picked them up on accident. The next day, I phoned him back to tell him I didn't find any of the missing records.
So, two years later, I'm still feeling guilty about what I did. I finally realized that the right thing to do is to return the records. I never saw DJ X again, so I e-mailed Robbie trying to find out if he knows how to contact DJ X. Unfortunately, he hasn't spoken to DJ X in over a year.
Now I'm at a loss. I do not want the stolen records around me anymore, but
I still want them. I am unsure as to what I should do to restore my karma.
-- DJ Thief
We doubt you can ever listen to the ill-gotten vinyl again without suffering flashes of remorse, and rightfully so. You must rid yourself of the cursed records quickly. Since you can't give them back to their proper owner, at least pass them along to a colleague who would revel in the acquisition. Your karma won't be spotless, but there are cosmic rewards for making an aspiring turntablist's day.
Dear Karma Cleanser: About this time last year, you ran a letter on the problem of re-gifting. I can't remember your answer, but now I have the opposite situation. I have received a lame (to me, at least) gift that I want to turn around and give to another friend. Is my karma in jeopardy?
-- Mrs. Grinch
Every December we face this question, and our answer has stayed virtually the same each year. There's no harm in re-gifting, so long as you handle it properly and make sure that the receiver doesn't know they're getting a recycled present. Our philosophy: It's almost always better to give something, even if the gift is a repeat. Sometimes what you call "lame," others might find fantastic.

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Compton's bleakly authentic debut procedural set in Minneapolis features Sheriff's Det. Sarah Pribek, who specializes in missing-person cases. Sarah's partner and mentor on the force, Genevieve Brown, retreats to near-catatonia after her daughter is raped and murdered. Compounding this tragedy is the escape of perpetrator Royce Stewart, aka Shorty, who slips the clutch of justice on a technicality. Sarah's husband of two months, Mike Shiloh, a detective with the Minneapolis Police Department, is scheduled to leave on a four-month training stint with the FBI. When Shiloh turns up missing, Sarah finds herself investigating the disappearance of her own husband. Because there are no clues in the present, she sets out on a long and twisted journey into her husband's murky past. Compton tells her story slowly and deliberately, allowing the reader to discover Sarah's secrets as well as Shiloh's, revealing both as complicated, unpredictable characters with dark former lives. Interviews with Shiloh's disaffected family in Utah turn up a sister, Sinclair, who is a deaf poet and university instructor. Even though Shiloh had never mentioned her existence, she proves pivotal to the story and provides vital background clues that point Sarah back home to Minneapolis. There, Genevieve rouses herself and joins Sarah in the Shiloh investigation, which veers in an unexpected direction and leads the two of them to a confrontation with the evil Shorty. Readers looking for perky heroines with sassy girlfriends and humorous man problems would best be advised to seek their mysteries elsewhere. Compton's world is complicated, shadowy and violent, with little cheer and only the barest traces of hope and resolution. Look for Sarah to appear in a sequel, but don't expect it to be easy for anyone. This is first-class, serious crime fiction.

From Booklist
This nail-biter of a debut novel takes off from this proposition: If, as crime experts hold, the first 36 hours in a missing-persons investigation are crucial, what happens after that window has slammed shut? Minneapolis sheriff's detective Sarah Pribek, who sometimes works on missing-persons cases, sees her cop husband off on his trip to the FBI Training Academy in Quantico. He never makes it, but Pribek, not expecting to hear from him during the first flurry of training anyway, doesn't realize things have gone terribly wrong till days--and opportunities--have passed. Compton skillfully weaves together strands of Pribek's life--her husband's disappearance, her best friend's grief over a murdered daughter, and her own foray into saving a suicidal teen--into a complex, shocking whole. From the first scene--a teenage girl teetering on a railway trestle over the Mississippi--to the harrowing resolution, Compton uses suspense as a powerful propellant. Connie Fletcher

My impression is that this was a meticulous first effort that just didn't manage to rise above mediocrity. Perhaps experience will be the necessary additional ingredient.
I will not retread the plot points mentioned in other reviews, but I echo those who were disturbed by the radical change in prose and plot of the second half -- it's as if two different authors were at work. The last fifteen pages are especially weak and forced, as if someone was writing on deadline. I have a feeling these were not the original pages when Ms. Compton first submitted her manuscript. Too much of the final act seemed to be strictly from Pribek's narration afterwards instead of the reader being there as discoveries were made. Things were just a bit too tidy.
This is an author I want to read about two or three books from now because by then she'll be the master of her craft. This first effort shows promise, but also some warts.
Sarah Pribeck is a detective that cares about her job, finding missing persons. She has been out of a partner since Genevieve's daughter was raped and murdered and the killer got away on a technicality. Genevieve is having a really tough time dealing with her daughter's loss and Sarah finds herself disoriented when her husband, Shiloh, disappears on the weekend he was supposed to travel to Quantico, to start the FBI program as a new trainee. Through the first moments of the search we realize how important Genevieve is to Sarah, since the latter keeps going back to the tips and recommendations the former provided in the past. With the time running against her and without being able to convince Genevieve to help, Sarah finds herself taking a plunge into Shiloh's past in the search for clues to solve the mysterious disappearance, finding a myriad of things she did not know about the man she has been married to for two months.
There are several things that Compton does astoundingly well; for example the description of the characters and their emotions. I also find interesting the fact that the author focuses on creating a thriller with no romantic undertones; one can get tired of the formula used by many in which a female heroine is drawn to a "strong male" in the setting of a mystery thriller. Where I find a major flaw is in the way that the story is structured, the action keeps stopping for long intervals to go back to events from the past, which in my opinion severely cuts the intensity the book has. With the quality of her writing and the good development of the characters, the author can reach much higher heights that the one she achieved in this first novel.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Dundee sank an additional $10.5 million into TauRx Pharmaceuticals to support three ongoing Phase III trials of LMTX™ in Alzheimer's disease and behavioral-variant Fronto-Temporal Dementia. The first patients have been enrolled into each of the three studies.
Dundee made its initial investment of $20 million in TauRx in September 2011. It now maintains a 5% stake in TauRx.
"TauRx has made good use of our initial investment, gaining regulatory clearance to initiate its Phase III study program for LMTX and establishing a network of experienced service providers to support the studies," said Ned Goodman, president and CEO of Dundee.
In October 2012, TauRx initiated two Phase III trials in mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The studies culminated more than thirty years of research by Claude Wischik, chairman of TauRx and professor of old age psychiatry at the University of Aberdeen, and colleagues, including the discovery of the Tau protein as the main constituent of the Tangle pathology of Alzheimer's disease (Tau tangles), the development of the first Tau Aggregation Inhibitor (TAI), and results from an earlier Phase II trial involving more than 300 patients that showed a 90% reduction in the rate of disease progression over two years.
According to TauRx, LMTX works by reducing levels of aggregated or mis-folded Tau proteins, which are intimately associated with the cause of and the progressive neurodegeneration of Alzheimer's disease. LMTX, is a second-generation TAI that targets the Tau tangles and their precursors, dissolving them in order to halt their harmful effects on memory.

2. Tess Paras, who wrote and stars in the video, told BuzzFeed that she wrote the sketch based on her own experiences auditioning.
Paras said, "My last name 'Paras' has Spanish roots because I'm Filipino, and the confused looks I receive tend to feel like some sort of micro-aggression…I always end up having to make light of the explanation and say something like, 'I'm Filipino! That's why I have an Asian face and a Spanish last name. Colonialism is crazy, right?'"
3. Paras said that she and her costars, Haneefah Wood and Ayana Hampton, bonded "because we've had many similar experiences."
4. They all "tend to see the model minority stereotypes at work often and wanted to address those in the video."
"It's tough because, in comedy, we're often taught that what's funny is that 'unusual thing' in a scene. However, some material treats race or stereotypes as that unusual thing, which is tough."
5. Paras also said that she's "really glad this critical conversation seems to be happening more in the media these days."
6. Paras recently appeared in an episode of NBC's Grimm that had a Filipino-centric storyline.

BERLIN German Chancellor Angela Merkel reassured Israel of her country's support on Saturday, two days after Berlin disappointed the Jewish state by abstaining in a U.N. vote on the Palestinians' status.
Germany, which will host Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and many of his ministers next week, abstained in Thursday's vote in the U.N. General Assembly which provided de facto recognition of a sovereign Palestinian state.
Netanyahu's government had hoped that Berlin would join the United States and a handful of other countries in opposing the resolution.
Germany, haunted by memories of the Nazi regime and the Holocaust, tends to be a strong ally of Israel on the diplomatic stage.
"Germany will always stand on the side of Israel on the issue (of Israeli security)," Merkel said in her weekly podcast, and spoke of Berlin's vocal backing for Israel during its latest clashes with Hamas.
"Israel has not only the right but the duty to protect its citizens," she added.
Merkel did not mention the U.N. resolution, which upgrades the Palestinian Authority's observer status to "non-member state" from entity, a move that gives it access to world bodies including the International Criminal Court.
Germany cited fears the resolution would complicate the peace process as a reason for its abstention. "On the one hand we see the Palestinians' justified desire for their own state, but on the other hand we recognise our special responsibility to Israel, and for peaceful and stable development in the region," Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said on Thursday.
In Europe, only the Czech Republic voted against the resolution while many countries including France backed it.
Merkel reiterated Berlin's support for a two-state solution in the Middle East and urged a speedy resumption of peace talks between the Israelis and Palestinians.
Netanyahu and his ministers will hold consultations with their German counterparts in Berlin on Thursday. Their talks will cover economic and trade ties and cooperation in science and education as well as regional security issues.

Just finished this training after doing the first FCP X book from them and I now have a much greater understanding of what's under the hood of FCP X's new layout. Highly recommended for any professional that really wants to learn every major element of this app that can sometimes be deceiving with its simplistic layout and to really understand why this is a powerful app and in my opinion, the future of NLE.
This book takes you thoroughly through organizing your footage using keywords and meta data (perfect for documentary filmmakers like myself), animating title sequences, using the audition effect, creating compound clips, keying, color correction, audio editing, and much more. It's definitely meant for people with some prior editing experience. It completely skipped over things such as split screen while spending 20-30% of its pages on color correction. That's probably appropriate for a book on "advanced editing".
What I liked was watching this short tutorial series on youtube prior to reading this book: [...]
And if you're reading this review while on the fence about buying the program itself, lemme say that Final Cut Pro X is the bomb. Unless you are making a sequel to Avatar, I don't think you'll find it limiting, but you will find it intuitive and relatively easy to use. Just one lady's opinion.
Here's the thing - even though it's been a few years since the redesign, a lot of FCP7 users are just now finally coming to grips that they will have to make the switch. Hanging on to the old version (which is still better in my opinion, as of this writing) will not keep you current. Younger editors are coming into the workforce using FCPX, Premiere, etc. and they will do their work faster than "old timers" because those programs utilize the 64-bit architecture. The new plugins and effects that look modern and cool are all being made for the new programs so you can't take advantage of the current video styles unless you make the switch to a 64-bit program.
I suggest reading this book cover to cover one time if you're getting ready to switch from FCP7 to FCPX or if you are totally new to video editing. There's A LOT of information to learn and you can't grasp it all at once. Just let the ideas wash over you and get used to the concepts. This way, when you go back to page one and start practicing with the program along with the book, you'll feel more confident and your learning process will go more smoothly.

Electrical bio-impedance can be used to assess skin cancers and other cutaneous lesions. The aim of this study was to distinguish skin cancer from benign nevi using multifrequency impedance spectra. Electrical impedance spectra of about 100 skin cancers and 511 benign nevi were measured. Impedance of reference skin was measured ipsi-laterally to the lesions. The impedance relation between lesion and reference skin was used to distinguish the cancers from the nevi. It was found that it is possible to separate malignant melanoma from benign nevi with 75% specificity at 100% sensitivity, and to distinguish nonmelanoma skin cancer from benign nevi with 87% specificity at 100% sensitivity. The power of skin cancer detection using electrical impedance is as good as, or better than, conventional visual screening made by general practitioners.

Exporting SketchUp Models into Unity 3D (With Texture)
(Updated 6/17/2013)
Table of Contents
Currently the best format for bringing models with textures (including Google Earth images) is through Autodesk FBX format. If you have SketchUp Pro, you can export within SketchUp as an FBX. If you don't, Collada (.dae) will work.
The workflow below will outline FBX export and import. However, if you are using collada format, follow the same steps.
Information at the end of the page cover Collada and SketchUp formats. If you cannot get the new (free) SketchUp Make, you can use a third party program such as Blender or an Autodesk Plugin for FBX in order to transfer files. The forum thread listed in Resources can be helpful for troubleshooting.
Export the SketchUp Model1. Go to File --> Export --> 3D Model (Figure 1)
Figure 1: Open the Export Window for the 3D Model
2. Name your file and set the location you would like to save it to. Select FBX as your file type in the drop down menu.
3. Select Options before exporting (Figure 3.1). Select "Export two-sided faces" & "Export texture maps" and change units (Figure 3.2). Units can be used as preferred, default in Unity 3D is centimeters. If desired change the Y-Z axis (Game Engines utilize Z-axis as through the screen). Press "Ok" in the Options Window.
Figure 3.1: Location of Options button in Export Window
Figure 3.2: Option selections
Importing into Unity 3D5. BEFORE Importing: Find your export folder, next to the FBX file should be a folder with the exported materials/textures.
6. Open Unity. Within the Project Browser right-click on the Assets folder and create a folder for your textures and name it, for your own organizational needs. (Figure 6)
Select all textures in the folder created with your FBX file and drag them into your new folder within Unity (they will all be imported into Unity). When you import the FBX file, Unity will search all folders for the correct material name associated with the model before creating one, so feel free to create as many layers of folders as necessary.
Figure 6: Create a new Assets Folder (Name it Textures) and drag and drop all textures into folder.
7. In the top menu, select "Assets" --> "Import New Asset..." --> find your FBX file for import. (these last few steps are outlined in more detail on the Revit to Unity Wikipage
Note: If you import the FBX first, Unity will create materials for each texture assigned and when you import those textures, you will have duplicates, and each will need to be manually changed. The default route of the textures will be in the "Materials" folder. For complex geometry, manually changing textures is not practical and deleting the newly created materials not possible, without deleting the whole Materials folder, and any other materials assigned.
8. Select your new asset, the preview should show all imported textures. Within the Inspector, change the Scale Factor to 1. Hit "Apply" and drag your model from the Project browser into the Hierarchy of the desired Scene.
Information on Other SketchUp Export File Types
COLLADA (.dae) File Type
- Will transfer Google Earth Images intact without stretching or misplacing them.
- Will transfer base geometry.
- Will break down base geometry into surfaces that can be selected, edited and grouped in 3D Studio Max.
- Collada has a smaller file size because it will only export geometry and not textures and materials.
- Will not export default, sun, sky, camera, and import symbol that need to be deleted later in 3D Studio Max.
- Will export the default SketchUp materials applied to the model into a folder next to the exported model file with generic names as .JPEGs.
- These material files will not import into 3D Studio Max well. These are recommended to be deleted and replaced with accurate materials and textures.
SketchUp (.skp) File Type
- Will export a default sun, sky, camera, and import symbol that will need to be deleted in 3D Studio Max.
- Exports the model as a whole and does not break it down into editable surfaces.
- Will transfer some of SketchUp's default materials, but not all of them.
- Will have a larger file size because of carrying the sun, sky, camera, and materials.

Need Your Love So Bad Lyrics
Artist: Fleetwood Mac
Album: Need Your Love So Bad
Need someone's hand to lead me through the night
I need someone's arms to hold and squeeze me tight
Now, when the night begins, I'm at an end
Because I need your love so bad
I need some lips to feel next to mine
Need someone to stand up and tell me when I'm lyin'
And when the lights are low - and it's time to go
That's when I need your love so bad
So why don't you give it up - and bring it home to me
or write it on a piece of paper, baby - so it can be read to me
Tell me that you love me - and stop drivin' me mad Ooh, because I - I need your love so bad
Need your soft voice - that talked to me at night
I don't want you to worry, baby
I know we can make everything alright
Listen to my plea, baby, bring it to me
Because I need your love so bad

Sofia Subway to Cover 70% of City Area in 2 Years
The Sofia subway network will cover 70% of the territory of the city in two years' time, according to Sofia Mayor Yordanka Fandakova.
Speaking Friday at a press conference, Fandakova presented plans for the expansion of the subway to Sofia Airport and Business Park Sofia.
The event was also attended by Stoyan Bratoev, CEO of municipally-owned Sofia Metropolitan company.
Fandakova, as cited by investor.bg, made clear that the Sofia subway would be extended by two new sections.
She made clear that one subway line would go from the Tsarigradsko Shose Blvd to Sofia Airport.
The Sofia Mayor noted that the end station of the subway line would be a mere 10 meters away from Sofia Airport and would offer a panoramic view of the runways.
She informed that the subway line would be 5km long and would include 4 stations.
Bratoev told journalists that the second subway line would connect the Mladost 1 residential district to Sofia Business Park and would have 3 stations.
He suggested that the stretch would be 2.7km long and was expected to service 45 000 passengers.
The CEO of the Sofia Metropolitan company specified that the Mladost 1 – Sofia Business Park section was to be completed in the first quarter of 2015.
Fandakova informed that the competition in the tenders had reduced the cost of the subway expansion project from the initial EUR 148 M to EUR 115 M.
She also presented plans of the Sofia Municipality for the construction of a third metro diameter, with construction works set to begin in end-2015.
The Sofia Mayor explained that the 17-km subway project would start from the Botevgradsko Shose Blvd, cross the Ovcha Kupel residential district, the end point being the Sofia ring road.

My son organised for us to stay in this hotel because it was cheap. I was OK with that but on the trip to Melbourne decided to search for reviews and became rather concerned by what I read. When we arrived I was pleasantly surprised to find that although the rooms were rather dated they were clean and roomy and the staff were accommodating.
Although others have complained about the noise in the rooms we were made aware before we booked that this could be an issue and I have to say although we could hear some noise it was not an issue, and we were there over the period between Christmas and New Year.
One of the real pluses with this hotel is that it is very centrally located to restaurants, public transport, nearby shopping and the MCG.
Was disappointed that they listed that they had a gym on the website, but when I asked about it they said it was no longer there.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

There are two perks that matter most to horse player gamblers. They're not single mothers or fathers of two, in too short shorts, slinging cocktails. They're not cheap or free drinks. They're not free tickets to see Wayne Newton's uncle. Wait. That could be Wayne himself after all these years. The perks gamblers care about are not discounted or free rooms, free golf, easy credit, limo service at a snap, or books upon books of coupons good for 15 percent off everything in Vegas.
What matters to horse player gamblers are free money and respectful service.
And the number one perk has come to horse racing in high style: They're giving away free money all over the place with relatively minor stipulations -- to get $200 in cash on the Daily Racing Form's plan, all you have to do is put $200 in play in a one month period. That's right, bet $200 a month, not $200 an hour: Betting an average of $7 per day will earn you the two bills, just like you found it on the sidewalk. Bet $200 to show on the best horse you can find, and a month later, $200 more will be in your account.
Rewarding people who put money in play is a casino staple. Which is easier, breaking even with $200 worth of action on horse racing, blackjack, or dice? It depends on the player. Where could you win the most with a $200 stake? Same answer. But horse racing is more fun.
Anybody concerned about empty grandstands should have something to say about mainstays of the industry like the DRF encouraging people to stay away from the races. Actually, the Form isn't exactly saying stay away from the grand old tracks, it is simply saying bet with us through the Xpressbet service. So you could take your laptop to the live races and bet on the computer, stirring the economy with beer and popcorn pittance money.
It is sometimes off-putting to read preachy stuff about the demise of on-site attendance from somebody whose financial interests are served by the abandonment of the live racing experience. It must be awkward to write off such things with conflicting editorial vibes. But what are you going to do when money is scattered. You have to chase it, lure it. Online wagering services are in effect simulcast venues of the most convenient variety.
Being given money to bet can be taken as something of an insult.
True, the giver is making money off a commission of the wagers made, whether you win or lose.
Here's what the people giving you the $100 or $200 think: You won't quit.
They figure there's no way you'll stop after putting the minimum monthly requirement in play. They know it's nearly impossibly to stay off the online site when you're ahead. And there's only one way to get losses back.
Here's what's most enjoyable about playing on somebody else's money.
Stay ahead and you've beaten somebody, you can even pretend it's "them."

IMTS 2012: Crazy times in manufacturing
IMTS 2012: Crazy times in manufacturing
September 14, 2012
Dan Davis
Sometimes you wonder if North American metal manufacturers got the memo.
Europe is struggling with countries teetering on the brink of financial collapse. China is no longer seeing its GDP grow by double-digit percentage points. Other once-hot economies in the world, such as Brazil, have cooled considerably. Meanwhile in the U.S., unemployment remains above 8 percent, and economists fret that the federal government may be headed off a "fiscal cliff" at the end of the year, when automatic budget cuts take place and Bush-era tax cuts end.
So what happened as the International Manufacturing Technology Show 2012 opened in Chicago on Sept. 10? Show organizers announced that they were expecting its most well-attended show since 2002. (Preregistration alone stood at 86,000.) Simultaneously, AMT—The Association For Manufacturing Technology announced that U.S. manufacturing technology orders in July were up 5.4 percent overall compared with the same time in 2011. U.S. manufacturers continue to move forward no matter what craziness occurs around them.
With that in mind, it was fitting to see the folks from Local Motors working on its Rally Fighter car right in the entrance to the North Building of McCormick Place. The team hoped to finish constructing the vehicle by the time the show closed on Sept.15.
The company itself is not just a custom car manufacturer. Jay Rogers, Local Motors' president, CEO, and founder, said his company's car designs result from "crowd sourcing," taking design ideas from a virtual community of would-be Henry Fords. In fact, the Rally Fighter design, which is built upon steel-tube frames and with composite body panels, came from an art school student.
"It's an open-sourced car, but it comes from DIY roots," the Harvard-educated Rogers told an IMTS crowd on the opening day of the show.
Such is manufacturing today. Rogers called his company's approach to manufacturing—and eventually sales and servicing of its cars—"disruptive" when compared to the current way automobiles are designed, built, sold, and serviced. Manufacturers are similarly facing challenging times, particularly as they struggle to maintain high levels of productivity without adding labor cost. In a way, these metal manufacturers are being challenged to embrace "disruptive" technologies of their own. IMTS featured several examples:
showed off its multimedia platform for mobile media that the company hopes one day will be the go-to choice for manufacturers looking to convert work instructions and accompanying graphics for display on tablet devices or even mobile phones. Early beta users created their own step-by-step guides on top of the Dozuki framework, including video in some cases, and later placed portable computing devices next to machine tools, so users could take in instructions right there or take the tablets with them. Bruce Klickstein, the company's vice president of business development, said one manufacturer of airplane seats witnessed the potential impact of the tool with new trainees. Traditionally trained employees were able to install seats in a fuselage in about 55 minutes after three to six weeks of training; employees without the same training but with access to the tablet instructions were able to do the same task in a little over an hour.
The Lincoln Electric Co. shared its
CheckPoint™ weld production monitoring system
with show attendees. Keeping track of the performance of welding power sources and cells is not so much a new thing; but having access to that information through the "cloud," which in this case is the Internet, is. A supervisor or manager can access equipment performance information with a smart phone, tablet, or computer through a Web browser and without the need for special software. Information on weld performance details, wire feed usage, and voltage is available in real-time, allowing management to keep tabs on important welding jobs or collect auditing information for quality programs.
Coordinate measuring machines aren't anything new, but the scanning power that these units have nowadays really allows a fab shop to flex its engineering muscles through redesign or reengineering activities. A good example is the
Romer Absolute Arm
with an integrated scanner that is capable of capturing 50,000 points per second, almost a 40 percent improvement over the previous generation of technology. The unit has a battery with a run-time of about two hours and has room for two batteries.
At the very least, these types of technologies and others on display at IMTS have the potential to keep metal manufacturers ahead of the competitors down the street and around the world. As Dr. Rebecca Blank, acting secretary of the U.S. Department of Commerce, told attendees during opening day remarks, U.S. manufacturers are on a roll in recent years, pushing manufacturing output up 20 percent since 2009 and increasing manufacturing exports 36 percent between 2009 and 2011. Investment in new technology is one true way to ensure that manufacturers continue on the path to increased productivity—and hopefully profitability. That's the plan for many companies, no matter what bad news may be found in the morning headlines.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Stopped at this Starbucks on our way home after baseball tournament was rained out, drinks were prepared exactly as ordered and were extremely tasty, Only complaint I would have is the parking... the drive through for the store runs right through the middle of the parking lot and when it's busy, it is VERY difficult to get out of your parking space.

the Institute of Urbanology in front of their office in Dharavi, Mumbai
Matias Echanove & Rahul Srivastrava
Having worked on their obsessions in parallel worlds for several years, Matias Echanove and Rahul Srivastava joined forces through their blog airoots/eirut in 2006. They have since written extensively on urban themes and engaged in projects involving planning, pedagogy, technology and activism. They are the co-directors of the Institute of Urbanology, which has offices in Mumbai and Goa (India).
They are part of the urbz.net collective, which organizes collaborative design workshops in places such as Tokyo, Istanbul, Mumbai, New Delhi, Sao Paulo and Rio. They have presented their work in forums and seminars such as TEDx, Urban Age, Just Metropolis, J-Store, and have been invited to give lectures at various institutions including Columbia University, Berkeley, Princeton University, Strelka Institute in Moscow, the University of Rio, the University of Tokyo, the Royal Institute of Arts in Stockholm and the World Bank in New Delhi.
They have co-written a number of academic essays and commentaries for various publishers, magazines and newspapers including Oxford University Press, Strelka Press, Domus (Milan), New Village Press, Tokyo University Press, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Hindu, The Times of India, Time Out Mumbai, Art India and Indian Architect and Builder.
Matias Echanove studied economics & government at the London School of Economics, urban planning at Columbia University (New York) and urban information systems at the University of Tokyo.
