We stayed in the Oaks Goldsborough Apartments for 4 nights at the end of November.
Firstly, the good point about this hotel - the location... approx 3 minutes walk out of the hotel and you're on Darling Harbour (although there is still somewhat of an 'however' here, as it means you access the harbour via the 2nd floor of a multi-storey car park), but apart from that, the location of the hotel cannot be faulted. Darling Harbour is amazing. More eateries than you can shake a stick at, beautiful views across the harbour, plenty of attractions to keep you busy (Madame Tussauds, Wildlife & Sea-Life centres) as well as the traditional Saturday night firework display is a massive treat!
Now, the reasons for my 'poor' rating of this hotel...
On check-in we were 'upgraded' from a Studio to a One Bedroom Apartment, so initially thought 'great'.. however, on our arrival into the room we couldn't help but think 'well, if this is an upgrade, what are the Studio rooms like?'
We were located on the 3rd floor, where we took the elevator from reception. As the elevator doors opened on the 3rd floor and we turned right onto the landing, our faces dropped. Looking along the wooden-floored and beamed corridors, it simply looked like an 18th century dormitory (or my wife's actual description, a prison). I know the hotel manager keeps replying to reviews over and over again on here saying "The open atrium and the original hardwood floors have been maintained to uphold the authenticity that it was created", but 4-foot tall punched-hole metal sheeting outlaying the border of each room's outside space is definitely not authentic! The hardwood floors may be authentic, but also lend themselves to the constant clip-clopping of feet, not to mention the noise created by wheel-on suitcases at all hours.
The rooms are tired and need a little TLC to say the least. Definitely a 'no-frills' approach. We were in room 333, which has the amazing views of the back street (complete with the wheelie-bin collection point directly underneath the balcony) and looks straight into the multi-storey car park. Needless to say, the room hardly gets any natural sunlight – not that you'd have any reason to open the curtains anyhow.
Overall, Darling Harbour is an amazing place to visit, but the experience was definitely spoiled somewhat by staying in this hotel.

Sonics Can't Beat Bulls At Worst Bulls Up 2-0, Thanks To Strong Effort From Rodman
It's not a pretty thing, this coronation of the Chicago Bulls.
In an ugly Game 2 in which Dennis Rodman, of all people, was the only one looking good, the Bulls overcame a performance even worse than their rusty Game 1 effort and beat the Seattle SuperSonics 92-88 to take a 2-0 lead in the NBA Finals.
How gruesome was it? The Bulls scored only one basket from the field in the final six minutes, had their second-worst shooting night of the postseason (39 percent) and blew three straight free throws in the final 10 seconds that would have clinched it.
Finally, after a jump ball sequence that was so ugly it had to be done over two times, Rodman controlled the tip, got fouled and made the second of two foul shots for the final four-point margin.
The crowd at the United Center let out a scream of relief and walked to the exits shaking their heads, wondering how the supposed best team in the history of the league could have played such a stinker.
But as they did many times in the regular season and in the first three rounds of the playoffs, the Bulls managed to find a way to win despite playing near their worst.
Game 3 is Sunday at Seattle, and the Sonics will be trying to become only the third team in NBA history to successfully come back from an 0-2 deficit in the Finals.
Saving for the future

In an in vitro study, we found significant associations between QUS variables and properties and geometrical parameters of the compact bone of human finger phalanges. QUS variables were not only related to BMD but also to other skeletal properties, which explained 70% of the variability of speed of sound.
Introduction: Transverse transmission quantitative ultrasound (QUS) measurements at the finger phalanges are known to be correlated with BMD and to predict osteoporotic fractures. To determine which other skeletal properties are affected by ultrasound, we investigated the impact of density, geometry, and porosity on QUS variables in vitro.
Materials and Methods: Ultrasound variables were correlated with density, porosity, and geometrical characteristics of cortical bone. Additionally, we tested which combinations of geometry and bone properties best predicted the ultrasound results observed. Forty-four proximal phalanges from the middle finger were investigated at their distal metaphysis, similar to the typical clinical measurement procedure. Donor age ranged from 52 to 98 years (15 males and 29 females; mean age, 80.9 ± 9.4 years). QUS variables were measured on the metaphysis of the phalanges using the DBMSonic 1200. Quantitative CT was used for the measurement of BMD, and high-resolution MRI was used for the measurement of porosity and geometrical variables.
Results: Speed of sound (SOS) and the clinically used variable AD-SOS correlated significantly with area, relative area, density, and porosity of the compact bone (R2 = 0.28-0.58, p < 0.0001). Signal amplitude correlated significantly only with relative area of the compact bone and area of the medullary canal (R2 = 0.18-0.20, p < 0.01). The combination of cortical area, density, and porosity improved the determination of SOS to R2 = 0.70, with a residual unexplained variability of 54 m/s (3.2%).
Conclusions: These results clarify the impact of skeletal properties on QUS variables. SOS is affected by cortical area, cortical bone density, and cortical porosity, whereas attenuation only depends on geometry of the medulla. AD-SOS, the variable routinely measured in clinical practice, is primarily affected by cortical area. QUS of the finger phalanges is not only related to BMD but also to other skeletal properties.
THE MEASUREMENT OF bone mass is of central importance for the diagnosis of osteoporosis and in the evaluation of efficacy of various therapeutic regimens designed to reduce fractures associated with this disease. Bone density is the most relevant quantitative parameter for the prediction of osteoporotic fracture risk. However, recent clinical trials have suggested that bone quality is an additional important determinant of skeletal fractures, because changes in vertebral fracture rate correlate only moderately with the magnitude of change in spinal bone mass.(1,2) Considering that fracture risk increases with age and that prevalent osteoporotic fractures represent a risk factor for future fracture independent of BMD, it can be assumed that the measurement of additional properties of bone quality might improve the prediction of fracture risk. The observations have prompted a new interest in the development of methodologies directed at measuring bone quality.
In the past 10 years, quantitative ultrasound (QUS) techniques have been introduced to evaluate skeletal status.(3–5) Several studies have shown that variables of ultrasound measurements of calcaneal trabecular bone measured in transverse transmission mode correlate moderately with BMD measured using DXA on different sites,(6) but strongly when measured on the same site.(7) Ultrasound variables are influenced by bone structure,(5,8,9) although it is difficult to show an independent correlation with histomorphometric measures, in part because structure and BMD are correlated.(7) Although speed of sound (SOS) has been found to be associated with bone structure,(9) the impact of structure remains small when adjusted for BMD.(10)
QUS assessment of bone status of the finger phalanges is an alternative approach and has been evaluated by several researchers.(11–19) The phalanx is easily accessible for measurements using QUS. The bone of the phalanx contains both cortical and trabecular bone and is sensitive to early changes in bone mass.(20,21) At the measurement location chosen in clinical practice, the phalanx of adult subjects can be expected to mostly consist of cortical bone,(17) although no extensive study has been reported regarding this issue. QUS at the phalanges correlates with hand bone density measured by densitometric techniques such as dual photon absorptiometry (DPA), DXA, or computed radiogrammetry(11,22) discriminates between osteoporotic and healthy women(23) and predicts incident fractures.(24) From simulation studies(17) we can expect that QUS variables would not only be affected by BMD as measured by the above-mentioned techniques but also by geometric properties. This was confirmed in vitro in a former study that showed strong correlations between QUS variables and geometrical properties of compact bone.(17) Moreover, DXA-based BMD measures themselves depend on volumetric mineral density and geometry of the bone. In phalanges, BMD depends on thickness and shape of the cortex. This makes it difficult to identify the determinants of QUS variables in vivo.
Ultrasound transmission is complex and depends on a variety of material properties like density, elasticity, and structure. After penetrating a structured medium such as bone, the shape of the ultrasound signal changes substantially, which complicates the interpretation of the results. At first sight, this may be considered to be a disadvantage. However, a variety of variables can be extracted from the ultrasound signal received that might reflect different aspects of skeletal status. To gain further insight into the clinical validity of this "multiparametric" approach, we initiated a study to investigate relationships between QUS variables and BMD and other skeletal properties in vitro.
Forty-four proximal middle phalanges from cadavers, 52-98 years of age (15 males and 29 females; mean age, 80.4 ± 9.9 years), were used. Specimens were obtained from autopsy courses in Munich and stored in formalin.(25,26)
QUS measurements of the phalanges were performed using the DBM Sonic 1200 (Igea, Carpi, Italy). The device was modified for research purposes to allow measurements with the probes immersed in a water bath. To exclude air effects on ultrasound transmission, the specimens were degassed under vacuum (∼13 mbar) for 30 minutes to extract air bubbles and transferred to the water bath without exposure to air. The specimens were positioned between the probes, which also were immersed in this water bath. In clinical use, ultrasound probes are mounted on a caliper, which is manually positioned on the phalanx in patient measurements. A button on the caliper has to be pressed by the operator to store the optimal signal. In the research device, this button was removed and placed distally to prevent ingress of moisture into the button. Apart from storage of the signal over a wider time range, which does not affect the measurements (but allows measurement of additional variables), no further differences existed between the clinical and the research device. For quality control, a phantom was measured on a regular basis just as in clinical routine.
The middle fingers were measured four times in the medio-lateral direction with repositioning. The ultrasound signal passed laterally (radial to ulnar) through the distal metaphysis of the phalanges. In all measurements, the distance between the probes was 20 mm. To avoid detection of ultrasound signals passing alongside the face of the phalanges, the ultrasound beam was collimated at both the sender and receiver side by ultrasound-blocking foam barriers with 8-mm-diameter holes. Specimens were positioned between the probes according to the procedure used in vivo. By slightly sliding and rotating them between the probes, the position with the best trace on the monitor was selected. In this device, ultrasound with a frequency of 1.25 MHz was used. For calculating velocity, the time when the electrical signal, generated by the ultrasound mechanical wave at the receiving probe, reached an amplitude of 2 mV was chosen, and thus the measured velocity depended on the signal amplitude. Therefore, it is reported as "amplitude-dependent speed of sound" (AD-SOS).(15,27) To disentangle the velocity and attenuation, we separately measured speed of sound (SOS) as a velocity parameter independent of the amplitude and the average amplitude of the first oscillation (AMP). SOS was calculated from the time of flight of the very first part of the ultrasound wave, specifically when first exceeding a low trigger level. AMP was calculated from the area under the first two peaks (reflecting the first positive and negative component of the first oscillation) of the signal received divided by their combined duration. Signal processing has been previously described in detail.(17)
High-resolution MRI:
To estimate cortical area and porosity independent of BMD, we selected high-resolution MRI (HRMRI) because, unlike X-ray-based methods, the signal is derived from the marrow and thus is unaffected by bone material properties. HRMRI was performed using a Siemens Vision Magnetom (Siemens AG Medical Solutions, Erlangen, Germany) using a specially developed spin echo sequence, with TE = 13 ms, TR = 65 ms, B = 1.5 T, and an examination time of 15 minutes.(28) Spatial resolution was 152 × 152 × 280 μm. The phalanges were mounted in a customized holder placed in a plastic box filled with 1.0 mM gadolinium-diethyltriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA). To avoid artifacts caused by air within the phalanges, the phalanges were degassed for at least 30 minutes before measurement.
The HRMRI slices were positioned in the same location that is measured by QUS, with a central slice at 40% phalanges length below the proximal inter-phalangeal (PIP) joint. Five 1-mm-thick slices were obtained in the region. From HRMRI, we estimated geometrical parameters (cross-sectional area of the cortex [CA], cross-sectional area of the medullary canal [MCA], and relative cross-sectional cortical area [RCA]). RCA was calculated as the ratio of the cross-sectional area of cortex and the whole bone. We also evaluated cortical porosity (CP), which was calculated as the ratio of porosity area and the whole cortical area. Pores are defined as closed areas of bone marrow inside the compact bone. Porosity is the ratio of the integrated areas of all pores divided by the area of the compact bone (including pores). All parameters were analyzed using NIH Image 1.61 (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). A global threshold was manually chosen offering the best differentiation between bone and marrow on the inner cortical surface. Image resolution was limited, and therefore only larger pores (>300 μm) could be visualized. However, for the group of specimens evaluated, substantial variability in porosity of this magnitude could be observed (Fig. 1).
High-resolution quantitative CT:
To assess cortical BMD, we performed high-resolution quantitative CT (HRQCT) measurements. HRQCT was carried out using a Siemens Somatom plus CT (Siemens AG Medical Solutions) scanner. A high-resolution mode was implemented with a slice thickness of 1 mm and a high exposure setting of 330 mA at 120 kVp and matrix size of 256 × 256 pixels. To calibrate BMD, we used two phantoms: one water equivalent and the other incorporating 200 mg/cm3 hydroxyapatite. The average density in the cortical area was calculated from five adjacent slices of 1 mm thickness obtained in the same area as HRMRI selected to match the area measured by finger QUS measurements. Despite the high-resolution mode, the spatial in-plane resolution was insufficient for an accurate depiction of the cortical thickness (Fig. 2). Because of partial volume effects, the measured density is affected by the thickness of the cortex. Using the cortical area accurately determined as CA on HRMRI images, we corrected the measured average density by the ratio of (CA − porous area) divided by the cortical area measured by HRCT. This should largely correct for the partial volume induced decrease of measured density. To reflect the limitation of the approach, the resulting density was denoted as "apparent cortical density" (ACD). All images were analyzed with custom software (NIH Image 1.61). A fixed threshold was used for the segmentation of the cortex.
Statistical analysis
The degree of correlation between variables was determined by means of linear regression analysis. Best combinations were evaluated using multifactorial stepwise regression. All statistical computations were processed using JMP (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA).
Descriptive statistics of the variables measured are summarized in Table 1.
Correlation between geometry, density, and porosity
ACD did not correlate with CA or RCA and only slightly with CP (R2 = 0.1, p = 0.04). CP correlated negatively with RCA (R2 = 0.36, p < 0.0001) and CA (R2 = 0.15, p < 0.01).
Impact of geometry on ultrasound variables
SOS correlated significantly with CA (R2 = 0.58, p < 0.0001) and RCA (R2 = 0.41, p < 0.0001) but not MCA (R2 = 0.03). AMP correlated significantly with MCA (R2 = 0.18, p < 0.01) and RCA (R2 = 0.20, p < 0.01) but not with CA (R2 = 0.03). AD-SOS correlated significantly with CA (R2 = 0.50, p < 0.0001) and RCA (R2 = 0.47, p < 0.0001) but not MCA (R2 = 0.07; Table 2). SOS and AD-SOS increased with increasing CA, whereas AMP decreased with increasing MCA. Combining CA and RCA improved the determination of SOS and AD-SOS. The geometrical properties explained 64% of the variability of SOS, 18% of the variability of AMP, and 60% of the variability of AD-SOS.
Impact of density and porosity on ultrasound variables
SOS and AD-SOS correlated significantly with CP (R2 = 0.30, p < 0.001; R2 = 0.30, p < 0.001) and ACD (R2 = 0.28, p < 0.001; R2 = 0.24, p < 0.001). There was no correlation between AMP and ACD (R2 = 0.03) or CP (R2 = 0.03; Table 3). Combination of ACD and porosity could not improve the determination of SOS or AD-SOS. Porosity explained 30% of the variability of SOS and AD-SOS.
Determinants of ultrasound variables in combined models
Using step-wise regression, we evaluated which set of bone properties contributes to the determination of the QUS variables. SOS was determined best by a combination of CA, porosity, and ACD (R2 = 0.70, SE of the estimate [SEE] = 54 m/s, p < 0.0001). AD-SOS was determined best by a combination of CA, RCA, and ACD (R2 = 0.65, SEE = 57 m/s, p < 0.0001). No combination could improve the determination of AMP (R2 = 0.18). In summary, 70% of the variability of SOS, 65% of the variability of AD-SOS, and 18% of the variability of AMP could be explained.
Aging is associated with accelerated bone loss and increased bone fragility. For the assessment of osteoporosis, QUS became attractive because it is free of ionizing radiation, is less expensive, and has a potential to assess bone material, strength, and structure, providing information relevant to bone strength beyond BMD.(5,9,29,30) Recently, QUS transverse transmission techniques on the phalanx had been evaluated by several researchers(11–17) because human phalanges are sensitive to early changes in bone mass.(20,21) QUS is generally based on a measurement of the velocity of the ultrasonic wave propagating through the bone segments and on the attenuation of the ultrasound signal. A strong correlation was observed between the velocity of the ultrasonic wave and cortical thickness in phantoms made of Perspex(16) in pig phalanges(15) and human phalanges.(31,32) A more detailed analysis of the ultrasound signal has been performed by our group,(17) showing stronger associations between SOS and cross-sectional area of the compact bone rather than cortical thickness. On the other hand, AMP correlated with the cross-sectional area of the medullary canal. Similar associations could be found in vivo, in vitro, and on phantoms. Our study confirms these results and provides more detailed information about the determinants of QUS variables (e.g., the impact of cortical porosity and density).
At the standard measurement location selected for QUS studies in vivo, the phalanx mostly consists of cortical bone, with some degree of endosteal trabecularization, and rarely, a few trabeculae are present (Fig. 1). Characteristics of the cortex thus should be sufficient to assess relationships with ultrasound variables. The structure of cortical bone can be described by two features: cortical thickness and cortical porosity. Additionally, for ultrasound interaction, the shape of the cortex and the medullary canal needs to be considered. For example, different sizes of the medullary canal at identical levels of cortical thickness and porosity can be expected to result in differences in ultrasound propagation (data not shown). The endosteal bone surface is metabolically active and very involved in bone remodeling. Cortical thinning or the expansion of the inner diameter during aging actually takes place at the endosteal surface, and the trabecularization that is observed on the inner surface of the cortex is an outcome of endosteal resorption.(33,34) On the periosteal surface, bone apposition occurs, predominantly, but not exclusively, in men.(35) Within the cortex, cortical remodeling results in increased porosity caused by expansion of the Haversian canal area.(36) Taken together, the cortical shell of long bones gets thinner and becomes more porous because of aging and disease. Our results show that both of theses processes affect QUS variables; for some of them the effect is independent. Cortical porosity was significantly associated with SOS as well as AD-SOS in our study but not with signal amplitude. The association between CA and SOS could be improved from R2 = 0.56 to R2 = 0.64 by adding porosity as a covariate.
We also investigated the impact of cortical density on QUS variables. Here the combined effect of the level of mineralization and the presence of smaller pores (that could not be resolved by HRMRI because of the limited resolution) within the cortex was estimated by the variable ACD. ACD correlated with SOS and AD-SOS but not with AMP. Adding ACD to the association between cortical area and porosity on one hand and SOS on the other hand led to a significant increase in R2 (0.64-0.70). When measuring cortical density, it has to be considered that compact bone is not homogenous. Apparent bone density is an average over variably mineralized parts of the compact bone and "nonmineralized" parts like the Haversian canals, and therefore, decreases with increased porosity. A decrease in mineralization causes a decrease in ultrasound velocity because of a lower material stiffness.(37) We excluded pores from the calculation of density, thereby separating porosity and density. However, spatial resolution in MRI was 0.156 mm, which only allows the detection of greater pores. Smaller pores, the majority of the Haversian canals, remain out of consideration. Thus, we cannot separate between lower mineralization and larger areas (or increased number) of the canals. A typical confounder in density measurements is the partial volume effect. Although we corrected our density values by using the cortical area assessed from the higher resolved MRI images to correct density values obtained from CT, a potentially remaining error caused by this effect cannot be ruled out. Our study does not have the power to show if any variations in mineralization alone have an impact on the QUS data. However, for ACD, the reported independent associations document that, despite the limited spatial resolution, this cortical variable seems to capture additional cortical properties that independently affect QUS variables. Both effects, increases in porosity and decreases in mineralization, result in lower SOS values, that is, in a diagnostically correct direction, because both impair the strength of the bone.
It is interesting to note the lack of any association between porosity and signal amplitude. A porous structure could be assumed to enhance scattering and hence increase attenuation. This assumption is not supported by our results. Porosity seems to have little or no impact on signal amplitude. However, porosity has a strong effect on SOS and AD-SOS. The strongest association was observed between SOS and a combination of cortical area and apparent cortical density, which might at least in part be caused by the impact of microporosity on ACD. ACD and CA together explain 70% of the variation in SOS. For AD-SOS, 65% of the variability was explained, with SEE = 54 m/s. This is equivalent to a residual error of 77% of 1 population SD (young reference population).
During aging, bone is lost, and it can be expected that all bone-related measures change their values with age. Therefore, it has to be examined if the correlations of different measures of bone properties are causally determined and not only an effect of ageing. However, in our study group, no significant correlation of any of the variables with age could be found, which might be because of the high ages of the subjects. Additional adjustment for age did not affect the findings, that is, significant associations remained significant and nonsignificant ones remained nonsignificant. Therefore, it can be assumed that aging did not cause any bias on the correlations between bone properties and ultrasound results.
Other limitations of our study include the small sample size, limited age range, and the use of formalin fixation, which might affect ultrasound propagation.(38) Nevertheless, the associations between QUS variables and variables of bone geometry were similar to those observed in vivo, on phantoms, and in simulations of ultrasound propagation through cortical long bones.(17) Therefore, it is very likely that our findings regarding the impact of cortical porosity on SOS are realistic, although this should be confirmed in additional studies.
We investigated associations between QUS variables measured with a clinical device and geometry and density variables measured with clinical devices of CT and MRI. Because of the limited resolutions of CT and MRI, not all of the Haversian canals could be detected. Therefore, it would be appropriate to continue these kinds of examinations with higher resolution methods such as μCT. A deeper insight into bone microstructure and material properties, however, requires the application of destructive methods like acoustical microscopy or histology, which were not available for our study. Also, the clinical relevance of our results, specifically the impact of bone geometry, porosity, and density on mechanical properties, still has to be examined using tests of bone strength and comparison with osteoporotic fracture status.
The standard variable evaluated in regular clinical practice is AD-SOS, whereas SOS and AMP measurements are not implemented in the clinical devices. However, because raw data are stored on the computer, these variables can be calculated retrospectively. Another variable available on clinical devices is "bone transmission time" (BTT). BTT depends positively on the amount of bone inside the phalanx, largely independent of soft tissue thickness. BTT would be equal to zero if no bone were present. The variable SOS, as calculated by us, is strongly correlated to BTT,(39) and hence, results for SOS should also be valid for BTT. From our results it can be assumed that SOS and BTT are not only sensitive to endosteal resorption (i.e., cortical thinning) but also to increased porosity. A decrease in porosity caused by therapy might also be detectable. In this context, it is interesting to note that the IGEA device performed well for monitoring response to alendronate treatment. Machado et al.(40) reported a significant increase in BTT in the course of 2 years of treatment. Whether this was because of decreases in porosity or increases in mineralization because of bisphosphonate treatment is unclear, but both aspects are captured by the QUS approach. Further studies are warranted to investigate the potential for monitoring treatment effects and perhaps separating different skeletal changes such as changes in porosity and mineralization.
A very common criticism of QUS methods revolves around the question of what skeletal properties are measured by QUS. Our data shows that 65% of the variability of AD-SOS can be explained by the skeletal and geometric properties investigated. This error includes inaccuracies of the imaging methods. If better imaging methods had been used, the percentage explained would in all likelihood have been even larger. In absolute units, the residual error is 57 m/s or 81% of the population variance reported for a young reference population. How does this compare with accuracy errors of DXA? For comparison, for spinal and femoral DXA, accuracy errors of 5-16% were reported,(41,42) corresponding to 30-90% of the population variance observed for those established techniques, comparable with the values reported here for AD-SOS. For SOS (or BTT), the residual errors can be assumed to be even smaller than for AD-SOS because the coefficient of determination is higher. However, no reference data are available today, and therefore, no direct comparison with DXA can be made. Our findings document that residual errors in the associations between QUS and bone properties are comparable with errors in the association between central DXA values and BMD. In other words, for phalangeal transverse transmission ultrasound, the question of which skeletal properties are measured can be answered with residual errors comparable with central DXA.
In summary, we identified different bone properties that explain a large portion of the variability of QUS variables for transverse transmission measurements of the finger phalanges. This showed that an expanded evaluation of the ultrasound signal might lead to a refined analysis of different bone properties. The calculation of different skeletal properties from QUS parameters might enable a differential diagnosis of different kinds of bone disorders and monitoring of disease-specific bone patterns.

I looked at Johns wikia
John's relationship with Vriska is a very complex one. At first, Vriska decided to help John on his quest as a means of competing with Terezi, who was helping Dave. Vriska was very bossy and a control freak towards John at first, which he found kind of annoying, but he still enjoyed talking with her. Vriska and John's feelings developed deeper: John used more of her typing quirk to please her, Vriska made an outfit for John that she said makes him totally hot, and John showed her Nicolas Cage, who became her fangirl crush. However, after Vriska killed Tavros, Vriska opened up more of her feelings than she had with anybody else. She held John's opinion of her in highest respect, fearing that he would be angry with her. She has told him about not only her remorse for killing, but how her views of killing compared to those of troll society, how much she admired humans for being weaker but nicer, and her entire background. Though he was a bit freaked out after hearing that Vriska had murdered twice and killed thousands to feed her Lusus, he did not think any less of her after receiving the shock.
What happened to that.

Work great.,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I ordered three pairs of these from Amazon. After unwrapping them and installing two AAA batteries in each of them, was snapping pictures within minutes using my 7D and four flashes in manual mode:
Two YN-560's
One Canon 430EX
One Canon 580EX II
That left one RF-603 unit free to use as an off-camera shutter release. A much better solution (in my opinion) than the Canon RC1 infrared shutter release that I also own. There were no configuration issues, simply put batteries in them, plug them into the speedlights, and they work. I love it when stuff just works.
The lack of a securing pin on the RF-603 to a hot-shoe is not an issue for me. The unit stays secure on my camera through spring-compression of the contacts. The 603's stay secured to my light stands through the stand's clamps, and each of my speedlights have a clamp that keep them secured to the top of the RF-603 units.
I also do not have an issue with the dip-switches being in the battery compartment. With the dip-switches in the battery compartment, they won't get accidentally moved around.
The only issue I have with them is that I have to remove the speedlight from each of the RF-603 units to turn the units on and off. A minor annoyance, but a power switch on the side would be easier.
My rating is because they work as they're supposed to and is not based on what I wished they did. A great value!

How well does the shutter work? If I do long bulb exposures, say 3hrs, does it have a lock or would make me hold the button?

Eric Smith says:
I use a key or a pen to turn the units on or when the switch in inaccesible. Other than that these things are fantastic.

San Antonio Travel Guide, Texas
'Fiesta City' and the 'Alamo City' are two ways people call San Antonio because there are two major things you can find here: fun and Texas's history, a history that reveals the city's multiculturalism.
Founded before Texas won its independence from Mexico, San Antonio was home to different groups: Spanish, German, Southern plantation owners, Western cattle ranchers, and Eastern architects. Their presence has molded the city's culture and cuisine.
With so many influences San Antonio's cultural life is mixed and diverse. You can feel this everywhere in the city especially during festivals when you will listen to a unique blend of Mexican and German sounds, drink German beer, cheer rodeo bull riders, eat Mexican tacos, Texan barbecue and Southern hush puppies.
The multicultural heritage can also be seen in the city's architecture, a mix of East Coast Victorian gingerbread facades, German pitched roofs and southern Greek columns. The Hill Country look combines Texas ranch features with more intricate German details. But now the tendency is to preserve and return to its Hispanic architectural roots and several buildings have red-clay roofs, Saltillo tile floors, and central patios.
The development the city went through made it difficult to preserve its past, many highways, faceless houses and homogeneous restaurant were built. Still all these could not erase the historical and cultural heritage of the city as it would not have been for anybody's interest. As every city San Antonio has to preserve its past, has to have something special that defines it if not for cultural reasons at least for economic reasons. People who come to San Antonio remember mostly the winding downtown streets and the beautiful river.
Keeping past heritage and not stopping the development of the city San Antonio assures every tourist will find something to his taste. All you need is look for it and you can find so many interesting attractions and events that you will find it hard to decide where to begin and even cover them all.
There are sights you can cover on foot for those who like walking and for others you will need a car or use one of the inexpensive tourist transportation lines that will take you even to farther spots like: Sea World - San Antonio and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. Visit them and you will offer your kid a wonderful time. They'll also like interactive Witte Museum and the Zoo where in the children's area they will be allowed to feed the fish and the ducks. At the San Antonio Public Library there is a branch where kids can learn how to use their own catalogs and search tools, watch puppet shows and listen to stories.
For visitors it is good to know that the city is divided in two parts. Downtown is the main walkable tourist area together with the River Walk that boasts with beautiful old buildings, hotels, restaurants, and shops. And the other part is quite spread out toward the northwest. Here you will find the Dominion Country Club, South Texas Medical Center complex, the Six Flags Fiesta Texas theme park and the Westin La Cantera Resort. The southwest region hosts the Kelly and Lackland Air Force Bases, Brackenridge Park attractions and some of the best restaurants and shops in town.
Whichever part of the city you fancy come to sit on the banks of a sparkling river and sip cactus margaritas, view Franciscan missions that rose along the river, taste the multicultural diversity of the city and enjoy this destination that everyone would like to visit at least once in their lifetime.

"At this point, Michael's better. Marcus still has some growing to do as a player. But Marcus is a better passer, he sits in the pocket more and looks like a quarterback. Michael looks like a running back playing quarterback."
Related quotes
"I don't think there is a player on the team at particular points that won't be helped by Marcus being back."
"Marcus has really matured as a player, ... The way he went about preparing himself for that game last week was very impressive."
"My linemen were the defensive players of the game. Robert Blount, Marcus Williams and Martin Jiminez really created havoc in Clark's backfield."
"In terms of looking at Marcus and comparing him with other players who have come through this program, I would say Marcus is more like Sean than anybody else. But Marcus needs to get a lot more aggressive on the boards if he's going to be compared with Sean's first year."
"[The lack of a second point guard] is clearly our Achilles' heel on this team. When Marcus wasn't distributing the ball as well [like in the overtime loss to Syracuse last Thursday in New York], we struggle. There is no more important player in the Tournament."

For dining options include:
1) US Bank Cash Plus. You can choose 5% off restaurants all the time (as compared to rotating quarters) Disadvantage is that unusually this card has different categories for restaurants and fast food, so if you tend to go to a mixture, you will use both of the allowed 5% categories on this (giving up bill pay for example)
2) Citi Forward. 5 Thank You points per $. Thank You points aren't always regarded as worth 1c, but for some redemptions than can be
3) Chase Freedom/Some Discover cards/others: these have rotating 5% categories, frequently including dining at least 1 quarter a year. Generally capped to $75 a quarter back on all 5% categories ($1500 spend). Cash Plus isn't capped, and Citi Forward probably isn't either.
Re: Citi Forward
It technically has a point cap of 75,000 ThankYou points per year (or $15,000 at 5%), so it might come into play if you eat out a lot and/or dine at very expensive restaurants.*
Also, TY points earned with this card expire after 5 years.
Almost a year into having the card though, and I haven't spent enough for either to be an issue. YMMV
*The 5 % also applies towards bookstores and movie theaters. It just so happens that Amazon is categorized as a bookstore, so I would recommend using it there if do any online shopping. Everything else gets 1 TY point (max 1%) per dollar, but many other cards will offer you a better value.

The longest Super Bowl in history may have featured the event's first blackout, but the extra time didn't improve the quality of commercials America's advertisers spent months creating before the big game. Overall, it was a generally weak year for advertising's big thinkers. There were few breakouts as most of the spots were so forgettable that even the bad commercials made more of an impression than the good ones (and that's not what their clients pay for). Even the usually reliable celeb endorsements ranged from the too insider (Paul Rudd and Seth Rogen) to the "haven't we seen this before?" variety »

"I discovered through the early part of that fight that I could lick Harry Greb. As each round went by, battered and pummelled from post to post as I was, this discovery gradually became a positive certainty in my mind."-- A Man Must fight , Gene Tunney.
It is one thing spotting a weakness and another exploiting it.
The majority of newspapers still have Greb winning the second fight as are other noteworthy ring observers.
To be fair though Nat saw it as a Tunney win.
Still The majority of people have Greb winning. The Pittsburgh Post Gave Tunney only two rounds and NY Morning Telegraph gave the fight to Greb 10-5. Pretty lop sided. Newark Evening News says , Greb gave Tunney as bad a beating as the first fight, it was one of the worst decisions handed out since the Walker Law.
All Brooklyn papers gave it to Greb. From all the evidence it seems to me that the second fight was Greb's inspite of Tunney apparently spotting a weakness in Greb.
