MIAMI, FLORIDA -- I don't write reviews a lot but I felt like it was necessary. My child had a fever and we needed to be close to Miami Children's Hospital so we booked Biltmore Hotel. It cost $257 so we got the hotel. We drove for an hour and twenty minutes. When we got to the hotel they told us that they didn't get the reservation. My daughter wasn't feeling well. They said they were all booked. I was really mad. I showed them the email and God's will a 1 bed. We had three people. We were upset. The heater broke I didn't know what to do. I suggest to NEVER BUY on Hotel rates. You will get screwed and waste money. Be careful.
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA -- I can't stand writing reviews but I feel obligated to write this one. Hopefully it will drive business away from Hotels-Rates.com. They mislead me and ultimately cost me money and cut my vacation short. I was an hour outside San Francisco and needed a room quickly. Their phone representative told me that there was a room in a motel near all of the attractions for $279 a night. That price included parking and all taxes. To be brief none of that was true. The hotel was over an hour away from Fisherman's Wharf in a terrible neighborhood and parking and taxes were not included. The motel, The Civic Center Motor Inn, was at best a seedy dump.
The room smelled of water damage, the bed was cheap with uncomfortable metal springs, and everything else was filthy and rundown. The city was booked solid because of the Pride Parade and we felt stuck. So we took a taxi into the heart of the city and tried to put it out of our minds. When we returned to the room later that night there were several loud drunks gathered outside so I closed the window and turned on the air conditioning to drown them out. Not only did the air conditioner not work, but it made huge mechanical banging sounds. I called the front desk and they told me that they were aware of it and that it would be repaired the following day.
So we were basically up the entire night. We couldn't open the window because of the noise, the room was hot and the bed was torturous. We were a mess the next morning, so we packed up and drove home. I've made several calls to both the booking site and the motel over the last week. The hotel refuses to admit that the air conditioner was broken and they won't call me back. Hotels-Rates.com refunded their service charge, but, after supposedly listening to my original call to their agent, deny ever telling me that the hotel was near the city's attractions or that taxes were included. You can read several reviews online similar to mine. Please avoid both of these businesses.
I booked a room through Hotel-Rates.com. They charged me $150.00. I cancelled the room well before the required 72 hours and they still charged me the total cost!! It says that no refund is given once reservation is confirmed. Well the confirmation comes immediately after making the reservation, so you do not have any time to cancel. They are a scam!!! Now they can go and book the room again and get a full rate again. USERS BE AWARE!!! DO NOT USE HOTEL-RATES.COM
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE -- I made a reservation for Days Inn West Nashville online ($69.99) per night and was charged $186 something. Way more than just taxes. Per hotels-rates.com, they could not breakdown the $42 difference because the hotel "tells" them what to charge. However the hotel couldn't break down the charges because I booked through hotels-rates.com. No one to speak to personally and no way to contact except email through their website. They could only send me an invoice through email but not broken down because "they don't know the breakdown". What a rip-off.
I booked a hotel with Hotel-rates.com. The agent suggested a hotel in my price range. I asked him if when I get there and I'm not satisfy with the hotel, can I be re-booked at another hotel. He responded yes. Well, I didn't like how the hotel looked and called to be re-booked and was told that cannot happen. I asked to be refunded and was told that a call review had to be done to check if there was any agent error. I was sent an email saying there was no agent error therefore, I cannot be refunded. I called back and was told that I cannot be transferred to that department.
In the course of the conversation, the agent hanged up on me. I called back a week later, since the issue wasn't resolved and got the same runaround. It's been almost a month and the issue still not resolved. I will never use this service again!
I just booked a hotel reservation online today. I realized there was a $24.99 fee for booking but thought that was how they would make money because they were getting me the hotel room at a lower rate. BIG MISTAKE! After making the reservation and contacting the hotel to confirm that it was accurate, I was told by a hotel worker they charge the same price per night as Hotels-Rates.com but without the extra taxes and the 24.99 service fee. I ended up spending way more money. When I realized this I was outraged. I attempted to call the number on my itinerary that was listed for Hotels-Rates.com. Well convenient for them, it was out of service.
After a ton of investigating online, I found this number for a woman named ** who claims to be a manager. Please call it if you have had similar experiences and let her know how dissatisfied you are. She seems to think that her and this company are doing nothing wrong but they are making thousands of dollars per day by ripping off innocent people like us. Here is the number **.
I booked a room with Hotels-Rates, without doing my homework. I know, shame on me. They claim to have the best rates, but charge a service charge, just for booking through them. I found I could have gotten a better deal, and without this service charge! I called to inquire about the service fees, and possibly cancel. Finding a number to call was nearly impossible. The only number available was in my email, not on their website. Once I finally got a hold of somebody, they were extremely rude to me. On top of being rude, I asked to speak with a manager, but the girl told me she was it.
Disappointing to find that a company would have such rude people in the customer service department! This has been an awful experience! I just hope that I can save someone some time, money and grief. DO NOT BOOK through HOTELS-RATES. (This is not to be confused with hotel-rates! They are pretty tricky, don't you think? One has an s in the name.) I repeat, DO NOT BOOK through HOTELS-RATES!
LA, CALIFORNIA -- I make a hotel reservation through Hotels-rates.com website a month ago. The hotel description of the hotel I pick on the webpage clearly stated that the rate includes Room and Taxes on a Single full-Sized bed room. However, after I check in the hotel on the day I reserved, I found out the rates was more than it was shown on the webpage. I contact Hotels-rates regarding the issue, they insist that it was nothing wrong on the information show on the webpage and they send out confirmation with the rate after my reservation process.
I point out that it was too late to cancel the reservation after I make the booking process and the booking fee had been charged at that moment if I see the confirmation rate is different. In other words, they provide false information on the website to mislead consumer to buy their product/service, they would not care the customer will end-up pay more to the third party.
I send email to them with a copy of reservation page with the "mislead" information that I print out on the day of booking to prove the case, I never received any feedback from them. What kind of service HOTELS-RATES.COM provide to consumer!!!??? Justice... would you willing to buy service from them after you read this review.
AUBURN, CALIFORNIA -- I used hotel-rates.com to book a room in Auburn CA online. Once the reservation was made with a credit card purchase, the amount was almost $30 more than what the quote was. I called hotel-rates.com customer service number and asked why it was higher than the quote. They said the extra fees involved raised the price. I asked for a break-down of these fees. The CS representative asked me to hold and she came back explaining there was a $19.99 booking fee added. I asked them to remove this fee, that there was no indication of any extra booking fee when I made this reservation.
They claimed that the extra fee would be refunded to my credit card within five business days. I am not holding my breath to see this refund but will definitely be checking to confirm this fee is removed. I would recommend anyone using this Hotel-Rates.com service to double check the charges after making reservation OR better yet, use another booking service!
PHOENIX, ARIZONA -- I googled 'hotels near sky harbor airport with shuttle service'. I found a good selection of hotels with airport shuttles and after making a selection, I clicked 'book'. I was sent a email detailing my choice and it was then that I learned I was charged a booking fee: $25 which was 1/3 of the cost of the hotel. I'd like to know that before I commit my credit card. From now on if I use their site, I'll make my choice and then contact the hotel directly to book the stay. I do not like being flim-flammed on the internet.

Relaxing weekend in the mountains!
"We were excited to get away with family and friends for a long weekend, and this was the perfect spot! Upon driving up to the house, we were struck by its expansive rocking chair porches and gorgeous natural environment. Inside, the house was spacious, extremely clean, well-equipped, and overall very comfortable for our 2 families. The owners have thought of EVERYTHING--from board games and Pop-A-Shot (which was my husband's obsession for the weekend!) to clean, high quality linens and bedding. We stayed downstairs, where it was so peaceful--at night, our favorite part was to open up the windows and fall asleep to the sounds of the mountains at night. During the day, we loved having a cup of coffee or cold beer on the screened porch and just enjoying the breeze and company!"

In January 2010, the City Manager created an Innovation and Efficiency Task Force comprised of city staff and public members to explore, develop, and implement innovative processes that would result in a more efficient delivery of services and maximize the use of limited taxpayer dollars. The goal of the task force was to identify $100 million in savings by December 2015. The goal was achieved in June 2015. While the task force no longer exists, the City remains committed to finding innovative, creative and efficient ways to continue providing critical services to residents at the lowest possible cost. To date over $123 million in savings initiatives and process improvements have been identified. A complete list of these items can be found in the Innovation and Efficiency Savings Report.

Top Ten Best Movies of the 21st Centuryaman28
The Contenders: Page 2
I hate this nasty movie.
You literally have GOT to be kidding me.
How is this in 8th! This movie SUCKS
Best movie ever in history.V 5 Comments
Never got tired of watching this
The best movie ever I mean it was revolutionary
Watch this movie and your mind will not return to you for hours afterwards.V 1 Comment
I'm gonna wreck it! No, let me fix it!
If there's one movie that realistically delves in this relationship business, it's the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind. Beautiful, poetic, subtle and moving. This is the "Inception" of chic flicks or any other romantic movieV 2 Comments
this might be in spanish but you can't pull your eyes from the screen. its a bit bloody but still childish enough to not be considered horror. its an adult fairy tail and has such a good story line.
Gruesome, magical, horrifying, hopeful... There are a plethora of words that could be used to describe this film. The best films have comedy in the mix, but that would ruin this masterpiece. From the very outset, you are in tune with the feelings of this girl as she tries to make her way in hard times and even harder places.V 1 Comment
All time favorite disney movie
Should be considered one of the best movies of all times, the actors are great, the plot is really interesting, the effects were extremely real. Definitely worth being remembered
The only reason this is so low is because a lot of people haven't seen it. This is Christopher Nolan's best work to date, that includes Inception and The Dark Knight. Those are both great movies along with The Prestige and all of Nolan's other movies but Memento is pure genius and the many twists at the end are amazing. The fact that the scenes are in reverse chronological order makes it so that you are just as confused as Leonard (the main character) and makes for some great plot twists. Memento is my favorite movie and anyone who hasn't seen it needs to watch it.
This movie is amazing. Nolan's best for sure. If you haven't seen it watch it.V 2 Comments
Probably not the best movie of the world but better than many movies from Mikey "Crazy Explosions" Bay
The end of a saga that defined a generationV 3 Comments
The human centipade 2 in the top?
If this movie don't been so new, probably be in 5th or 4th, but for me deserves the 2nd (the dark knight above) I never seen a animated movie with very good and artistical scenes

Moody's: Jumbo and Home-Equity Performance Weakens
While everyone keeps wondering how bad the situation in the subprime market really is, data indicate other sectors, namely jumbo and home-equity securities, also showed signs of weakness in May, albeit slightly.
According to Moody's U.S. Jumbo Mortgage Credit Indexes for the June reporting period shows the May 60-plus-day delinquency rate was 0.422%, compared to 0.397% in April and 0.268% in May 2006.
However, Moody's notes the performance of securitized prime jumbo mortgage loans was "slightly" weaker since the percentage of borrowers 30-59 days delinquent "has remained relatively low" at 0.550% in May. Also prepayments remain low with a one-month CPR ranging between 14%-18% over the last 12 months.
Similarly, the home-equity sector performance as tracked by Moody's U.S. Home Equity Index Composite for the June reporting period deteriorated. In May, the 60-plus-day delinquency rate based on current balance rose to 12.35% from 11.63% in April, while the foreclosure and REO rate indexes reached 4.89% and 2.38%, respectively. Meanwhile, the charge-off rate index rose to 2.5% from its value of 2.26% in April.
(The reports track the aggregate performance of prime-quality nonconforming jumbo loans and home-equity loans backing securities rated by Moody's.) (c) 2007 Mortgage Servicing News and SourceMedia, Inc. All Rights Reserved. http://www.bondbuyer.com/ http://www.sourcemedia.com/

We are all trying to move further ahead in life and be in a better place than we are today or have been in the past; there is always room for improvement. We find a lot of areas that need working upon be it in terms of our education, financial management, relationships or our nature. We may have set a list of goals for ourselves but we don't know how to actually achieve them. It is even possible that we are doing one thing in life but it never really feels right and we don't feel good about it.
If you have these questions too, maybe your answer is a coach. That's right! Now you may be thinking about some man in his middle ages, a cap on his head cheering for his team and instructing them on how to play the game. While the coach I'm talking about will also be instructing you on how to play this game called life, he won't necessarily look like a usual coach.

What Things should do during early pregnancy?

Stay hydrated, get plenty of rest and start on prenatal vitamins. Vitamin D is also probably a good idea. It makes your skin stretchier and could potentially help avoid stretch marks and make your perineum more flexible for when labor finally comes. And schedule an appointment with your doctor if you haven't already. Good Luck and Congrats!posted 09/02/2013 by akgheart
(cont.) For me, I can't stand doctors poking, unnecessary tests, and the lack of privacy that comes with the office, so I have a midwife. She's excellent. The longest practicing in my area, delivered my mothers (and mother in laws) children, and knows more about birthing than any doctor I've ever met. For my friend, she loves having little things to worry/talk about that could go wrong – keeps the pregnancy exciting – so she has lots of tests and procedures done by her doc that I would never dream of lifting my skirt for. My sis in law likes the birthing centers, a nice cross between hospital and home. Feels like a vacation in a nice hotel and has more options than a hospital. Research, decide, and enjoy your pregnancy!posted 09/02/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
To proceed - you may want to get a documentary called The business of being born. It goes through all the different options for pregnancy and thoroughly explains them. It originally didn't cover everything, but there was such a demand for it that they had to go through and cover all the other birthing scenarios, so now it's complete. Once you see that you'll want to decide which kind of care provider you want to go with, make a list of inquiries, take them to a few different providers, and give them the third degree. Then you'll decide who you liked best and who will be best for the kind of care you require.posted 09/02/2013 by a BabyCenter Member

The present invention relates to a texturized cell material for confinement of concrete, asphalt, sand, soil and other earth materials. Specifically, the invention relates to a cell material having texturized surfaces on the cell walls.
A cell material used for soil confinement to provide a road base made from soils (sand, rounded rock, poorly graded aggregate, concrete and the like) has been known and used for some time. A prime example is Geoweb™ plastic soil confinement system, sold by Reynolds Consumer Products, Inc., P.O. Box 2399, Appleton, Wis. 54913 Geoweb™ cells made from plastic strips which are joined on their faces in a side by side relationship at alternating spacings so that when the strips are stretched out in a direction perpendicular to the faces of the strips, the resulting cell section is honeycomb-like in appearance, with sinusoidal or undulant shaped cells.
Voluminous reports have proved the ability of Geoweb™ cell material to support roadways. Geoweb™ cell material has also been used in applications where the cell layers are stacked on one another, such as a stepped back design for hill slope retention. Even free standing walls have been built with Geoweb cells. However, because the cells are completely enclosed on the sides, the ability of concrete and asphalt structures to withstand upward and downward pressure can be limited by the sometimes low frictional and/or adhesive forces between the fill material and the cell walls. Furthermore, gravel, soil and other earth materials can settle over a period of time, causing exposure of the uppermost portion of the cell material to traffic and sun.
The present invention provides a cell material having texturized surfaces on the inner walls of the cells. The texturized surfaces have been found to cause a surprising improvement in the load bearing capacities of cell structures filled with concrete, asphalt, and loose earth fills such as soil and sand. Furthermore, a surprising reduction in the long term settlement of loose fill materials has been found to result from these texturized surfaces. These features contribute to much improved structural integrities and longer useful lives of structures which are reinforced by cell material.
The texturized walls may have varying degrees of texture depending on the type of fill material used. If a loose fill material such as sand or soil is used, the size and shape of the fill particles will play an important role in determining the optimum texture. If a concrete or asphalt fill material is used, the surface texture of the fill and the bond strength between adjacent fill particles will be important factors in determining the optimum texture.
Depending on the application, the texturized cell material may either consist of a single layer of cells or a plurality of layers stacked on top of each other. The texture may be uniform throughout the structure or may be varied in any desired fashion.
The embodiments and advantages of the invention are further described in the following detailed description made with reference to the accompanying drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a single layer of the texturized cell material of the invention.
FIG. 2 shows the texturized cell material of the invention filled with sand.
FIG. 3,4, and 5 are exploded sectional views of sand-filled texturized cells having various textures relative to the fill particle sizes.
FIG. 6 shows an exploded sectional view of a sand-filled cell having smooth (nontexturized) walls.
FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a concrete wall built using multiple layers of the texturized cell material of the invention.
FIG. 8 is a sectional view of the concrete-filled cell structure of FIG. 7.
FIG. 9 illustrates a chill roll arrangement used for texturizing a plastic sheet for use in the texturized cell material of the invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, a single-layer cell structure 10 is shown having texturized surfaces 12 on the inside walls of the cells 14. The cells 14 are preferably formed by first bonding a plurality of plastic strips 16 in a side by side relationship using the ultrasonic welding techniques discussed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,572,753 and 4,647,325, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. The bonding between strips may best be described by thinking of the strips 16 as being paired, starting with an outside strip 18 paired to an outermost inside strip 20, a pair of the next two inside strips 20, etc. The two strips 16 of each pair are preferably bonded together at bonding areas 22 located at substantially equal intervals along the length of the strips. Each pair of strips 16 is bonded to each adjacent pair at bonding areas 24 located about halfway between the bonding areas 22. The cell structure 10 can be formed by pulling the plurality of bonded plastic strips 16, causing the plastic strips to bend in a sinusoidal fashion.
The texturized surfaces 12 are preferably formed wherever the cell material 10 comes into contact with a fill material 32 such as sand as shown in FIG. 2. Accordingly, both surfaces of each inner plastic layer 20 and at least one surface of each outer plastic layer 18 should preferably be texturized. These surfaces form the inner walls of the cells 14. The outer surfaces 28 of the outer layers 18 may or may not be texturized depending on the application. For example, if the outer surfaces 28 are adjacent to an earth material such as sand or soil, texturization of the outer surfaces may help reduce settling of the earth material immediately adjacent to the cell structure relative to the fill material which is contained within the cells 14. If, on the other hand, the outer surfaces 18 are exposed, texturization of these surfaces may be aesthetically pleasing but would otherwise serve no useful purpose. An example of a filled structure having exposed outer surfaces is a concrete wall.
Texturizing of the plastic material can be accomplished using a variety of methods. In a preferred method, texturizing is accomplished during quenching of the plastic material immediately after extrusion. The plastic material is extruded using a sheet extrusion process and exits the die in a molten sheet form. The plastic sheet then passes between a series of texturized chill rolls where it is simultaneously quenched and texturized. In FIG. 9, for instance, polymer sheet 100 comprising a polyethylene composition exits the sheet extruder at a temperature of about 400� F. and initially passes between chill rolls 110 and 120 having texturized surfaces at temperatures of about 140� F. The polymer sheet 100 then winds around chill roll 130 which also has a texturized surface at a temperature of about 160� F. The polymer sheet 100 is then passed between two puller rolls 140 and 150, after which the sheet is cut into individual segments representing the plastic strips 16 shown in FIG. 1.
The texture of the chill rolls 110, 120, and 130 may be varied depending upon the texture desired for the surfaces of the plastic strips. Preferably, the chill rolls are close enough together that the polymer sheet 100 is "squeezed" between the chill rolls, thereby imprinting substantially all of the chill roll surface texture onto the surfaces of the polymer sheet 100. The preferred chill roll temperatures and speeds will vary depending on the type, thickness and temperature of the plastic material used.
In the embodiment which forms the basis for FIG. 1, each strip is about eight inches high and the welds 22 are formed at lengthwise intervals of about thirteen inches. Each weld 24 is about 61/2 inches from a weld 22. FIG. 1 depicts a relatively coarse texture but the texture will vary depending on the fill material used and the density of the fill. The optimum texture (i.e. that which causes the greatest increase in load bearing capacity and/or reduction in long term settlement) depends on the size and shape of the fill particles and whether the fill particles are bonded together (e.g. concrete or asphalt) or are loose (e.g. dirt, gravel or sand).
FIGS. 3-6 illustrate how the optimum texture is determined for a particulate material 32 consisting primarily of substantially spherical sand particles. As illustrated in each of these figures, a typical sand will include a range of particle sizes which will line up in a somewhat irregular fashion when stacked on top on one another. This irregular distribution helps reduce long-term settlement of the sand by making it difficult for individual particles to move relative to one another. In FIG. 6, for instance, particle A is supported vertically by particles B, C, and D and cannot fall in a straight vertical fashion unless these supporting particles are displaced. Particle B is in turn supported vertically by particles E, F, and G, particle D is supported by particles G, L and M and so on. The number of supporting particles for each individual particle is actually much larger than shown in FIG. 6 due to the fact that FIG. 6 only shows two dimensions of a three-dimensional particle network.
As illustrated in FIG. 6, the particles immediately adjacent to the smooth wall 166 of the plastic strip 16 have less vertical supporting particles than the particles located away from the wall 166. Furthermore, the smooth wall 166 provides minimal vertical support. Finally, unlike the particles located away from the wall 166, the particles immediately adjacent to the wall 166 tend to line up vertically in a somewhat regular fashion. Both of these factors (less vertical support and less irregularity) make it much easier for particles adjacent to the wall such as H, I, J, and K to fall vertically. When the particles adjacent to the wall 166 fall, this ultimately lessens the support for the particles away from the wall and promotes overall settlement of the fill material. If particle H falls, for instance, particle C will also fall, as will particles Q and R. Particle A is then likely to fall downward and toward the wall 17, causing particle T to fall and reducing the vertical support of particle S. As the particles adjacent to the wall 166 continue to fall due to water erosion, compression or other physical agitation of the structure, the inside particles will tend to fall downward and toward the wall.
In other words, the surface conditions existing at the inside cell walls of the cell structure are a major determinant of long-term settlement rates for loose particulate fill materials contained within the cells. By varying these surfaces characteristics in accordance with the invention, this long-term settlement can be greatly reduced.
FIG. 3 depicts a texturized surface 163 having only a very slight texture relative to the sizes of the sand particles 32. The texturized surface 163 provides only minimal vertical support for particles such as H, I, J and K located adjacent to the surface. Furthermore, the particles adjacent to the structure 163 tend to line up vertically in the same fashion as when the surface is smooth. While the texturized surface 163 may cause some reduction in longer-term settlement, the effect would be minimal
FIG. 4 depicts a texturized surface 164 having a medium texture relative to the sizes of the sand particles 32. Preferably, the texture will be such that the angle of friction between the texturized surface 164 and the adjacent particles (e.g. H, I, J, and K) is between about 20 degrees and about 60 degrees The angle of friction is the angle, measured from the vertical, at which a particle adjacent to the wall 164 touches the wall 164 at the lowermost point of contact. For a completely smooth surface such as illustrated in FIG. 6, the angle of friction will be zero degrees. For a particle resting on a horizontal ledge, the angle of friction would be 90 degrees. Most preferably, the texturized surface will be formed to give an angle of friction of about 40 degrees with the adjacent fill particles, though the optimum angle of friction may vary somewhat depending on the fill material.
By selecting the optimum texture for the surface 164, the adjacent particles (e.g. H, I, J and K) will generally not touch one another but will be somewhat spaced apart in the vertical direction. This vertical spacing should be such that the first layer of particles adjacent to the wall supports the second layer of particles in a manner similar to that by which the wall supports the first layer of particles. For example, particle I will ideally be spaced from particle H at a sufficient distance to allow particle M to fit between particles H and I such as to have substantial vertical support from particle I. Preferably, the vertical space between particle H and I will be such that the angle of friction between particle M and particle I is between 20 degrees and about 60 degrees, most preferably about 40 degrees.
In other words, if the texture is properly selected relative to the particle sizes, the optimum angle of friction present between the surface 164 and the first adjacent particle layer will also be present between the first and second particle layers, between the second and third particle layers, and so on. The result is a major reduction in long-term settlement for the particle-filled cell structure.
If the texturized surface has a coarse texture relative to the fill particle size, the optimum angle of friction will occur only between the wall surface and the adjacent particle layer and will not be transmitted to the second or third layers. This situation is illustrated in FIG. 5. The texture of the surface 165 is so coarse that adjacent particles such as R, H, I, J and K become substantially embedded in the wall and behave as if they were part of the original wall. While the angle of friction between the wall 165 and these particles is substantial, there is essentially no angle of friction between the first layer of particles (R, H, I, J and K) and the second layer of particles (Q, C, M, N and P). In effect, a new "wall" is formed along the dotted line W--W which has a much smoother surface than the depicted wall 165 and which includes the first layer of sand particles as part of its structure. The reduction in long-term settlement of the particulate fill material would be minimal under these circumstances.
FIGS. 7 and 8 illustrate the use of a cell material having a relatively coarse texture for reinforcement of a multi-layer concrete structure 70. Preferably, the layers of cell material are stacked upon one another using the notching techniques disclosed in U.S. application Ser. No. 07/032,278, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. By utilizing a relatively coarse texturized cell material, separation between the cell walls 168 and the concrete fill material 72 under conditions of high stress is substantially reduced. The resulting improvement in overall structural integrity greatly increases the capacity of the filled structure to withstand pressure and impact of both vertical and horizontal origins.
Because the fill particles are bonded together, the optimum texture is not based on individual particle size, but is instead a function of both the surface texture and the integrity of the concrete structure. If the concrete structure is strong, it may be desirable to utilize a cell material whose texture is very coarse relative to fill particle size as shown in FIG. 8, provided that the portions of concrete extending into the plastic layer 16 are not likely to break off.
In addition to the multi-layer concrete wall shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the texturized cell material of the invention also has useful application in single layer concrete or asphalt structures. A paved roadway, for example, would benefit from the increased load bearing capacity (i.e. ability to withstand vertical pressure) provided by the texturized cell material of the invention. The result would be a substantial improvement in the ability of the roadway to withstand heavy truck traffic and to resist buckling and pothole formation caused by changing weather conditions.
While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been disclosed, it is understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed examples. For instance, different fill materials may be used including gravel, soil and other earth materials. The type of fill material and the configuration of the cell material, including the size of the plastic strips and the coarseness of the surfaces, will vary depending on the use. Modifications in addition to those discussed can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
The scope of the invention is indicated in the appended claims. All changes that come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are intended to be embraced therein.

SINGAPORE -- It turns out that what most defines the emerging world is not fragmentation of countries but integration within regions. Major world regions are forging dense infrastructural connectivity and reorienting their relations around supply chains rather than borders. The same world that appears to be falling apart is actually coming together in much more concrete ways than today's political maps suggest.
