KUU, modern Japanese restaurant, set to open in Memorial CityFebruary 12, 2014 Updated: February 13, 2014 3:10pm
The name of chef Adison Lee's new restaurant means "art of eating" in Japanese. KUU, which is set to open Friday at Gateway Memorial City, aims to put a lot of art in its modern Japanese dining.
Tucked into the same complex that currently boasts Churrascos and Vallone's, KUU Restaurant (pronounced "coo") is a visual treat - designed with as much care as Lee's meticulously groomed dishes. Those dishes have undergone months of careful thought on Lee's part.

A protégé of internationally renowned superchef Nobu Matsuhisa, Lee has a keen sense of multilayered, textural contrasts: silken meets nubby; velvet bumps up against crunchy; slick collides with rough-hewn. It's deliberate entertainment for the palate.
"We're more focused on the texture of the food," Lee said during a tour of the restaurant before its much-anticipated opening. "It's new-style Japanese cuisine based on traditional technique but infused with my own creation."
To read this article in one of Houston's most-spoken languages, click on the button below.
Ricky Cheung, director of operations for KUU, said the design mimics what's on the plate. Polished metal meets up with chunky wood; stacked stone walls offer a counterpoint to smooth expanses of glass - textural juxtapositions at every turn.
Foodies, of course, will be more interested in the dishes put out by Lee, whom Matsuhisa tapped to open London's Nobu. Locally, Lee has worked at Blue Fish and Sushi Raku.
So what's on the menu at KUU? Lee said several dishes best exemplify his style at the posh restaurant. Satiny citrus-cured fluke on a rustic puree of edamame beans is garnished with frills of crisp kale chips and square jeweled gels of ponzu jelly. Lightly cured salmon nests against delicate sections of heirloom tomatoes while a pucker of yuzu lemon cuts through the sweet of plumped golden raisins. Slices of flatiron-seared Texas kobe beef are set atop crispy-edged grilled unagi on a fruit/kimchi emulsion and a streak of miso. For dessert, a warm ginger cake soaked in ginger syrup with apple/yuzu sorbet and a thin apple crisp.
KUU's entrees menu is divided between hot and cold plates.
Cold presentations: Japanese sea bream with black truffle slices and a yuzu truffle vinaigrette; kampachi with Texas orange, Thai chile and yuzu/garlic soy; lobster claw meat with kimchi tuna, Asian pear and guacamole; smoked salmon with basil oil and watermelon radish; striped bass and scallop tiradito with yuzu and chile paste.
Hot dishes: Uni-crusted king crab with uni custard, key lime and oyster mushroom; orange miso-marinated duck breast with watermelon radish and orange chips; scallop with kabocha squash and fennel sauce; black bean prawns with kohlrabi and preserved Meyer lemon; braised pork jowl with Japanese barbecue sauce and seasonal mushrooms.
There's a full list of sushi and sashimi. One of the signature rolls is the KUU roll, made with lobster claw meat, tuna, avocado, edamame puree, Asian pear and yuzu zest.
Lee likes flavors that tumble over each other, leapfrogging from one high to the next. But he keeps going back to that textural thing, explaining that even the way he slices fish - the length of the piece, the angle and the dice - offer subtle variations in texture.
"Every single dish is unique and created for this restaurant," Lee said. "I want everything to be perfect - the ingredients, the technique, the performance."
Cheung, who said his passion is wine, is ready to match Lee's dishes with a California-heavy wine list.
The two, who have worked together in the past, are ready to offer the public their interpretation of modern Japanese, they said.
"We've known each other for quite a long time," Cheung said. "It's always been a goal for us to open our own restaurant. Finally, we have this dream come true.
KUU is at 947 Gessner, at Gateway Memorial City at I-10 and Gessner, 713-461-1688; kuurestaurant.com

Email me if you want on the Golf Ping List:
Visit PGA.com, an excellent site.
Thanks for reminding me this is on TV now! I'm not really into golf but the Masters is an event worth watching!!!
I read Condi Rice played a strong round with Mickelson.
(and yes I know by FR standards she's a pro-abortion one world RINO)
With the awful events of the past couple years behind him, I see him getting back on track to becoming the greatest golfer of all time......
Since he's never done anything to me and I have no envy of his fame, his wealth and his accomplishments, I wish him nothing but good will........Go Tiger!
Cork Gaines
Tiger Woods finished today's opening round at The Masters with a 2-under 70. For those that are hoping to see Tiger in contention on Sunday, this is a great sign.
In three of the four years that Woods won the green jacket, his opening round score was 70. The one exception was 2005 when he posted a 2-over 74 in the first round. Only once in 19 trips to Augusta did Woods post a lower score in the opening round. That was a 68 in 2010. He finished fourth that year.
Here is a look at how Tiger arrived at 2-under today and how it compares to the opening rounds of the four years he won the tournament...
I like the masters because the course is like a huge green Cathedral (I'm in the high desert, so green is good).
I wish the PGA would do something about the morons that shout idiotic stuff, and "Get in the hole!" that really diminishes the experience.
I get really tired of the talking heads that worship at the shrine of Tiger Woods.

Emotionally unstable
this boyy and i started dating after months of my persistence. he didn't want any of me. nothing but friends. but i got to him, after homecomming he danced with me, we had a vice, an armoa. he wanted more. i never kiss untill 2 weeks+, the day he asked me out, the bonfire, the grass, him, the feeling, so perfect, i gave in. the next day, haloween, what a better time? candy, late. he had a friend; we went to his house.. he madeout with me. i'm not used to moving this fast, at all.
my relationships usually last a month, because i get so scared, and protective
he used to txt me all the time with a smile :) and ^^ <3, couldn't fall asleep unless i was on the phone. but after our 3 months.
things changed, and i can say because that was the day i started being someone eles other than myself. i lost iit and became emotionally unstable.
i lost his respect, and to somehow gain it. i degraded myself to head.
all the time. it felt like that was the only time he smiled. and i only wanted him happy. after i felt like he put NO effort, because realising he was going to college, we broke up together. it was my idea, i had two of my best friends with me; he didn't know at the time though.
i missed him the very next day. and the next. and the next. i'd fall asleep clutching his bear in love with our memories.
he knows i misses him, and he misses me.
after the 4th day, i pronounce" i was just looking for you.."
he passionately kisses me, and asks need i say more?
i say no.. but in a haze, i've forgotten of how i almost was stable without him again. we remain, and we are not counting our break up.
things were so good.. for a week or two. and then it began to reoccur with the whole indifference. i want him to talk to me, i feel like i'm always the one that i'ms, txts' calls, comments. and usually i dont even get anything back.
if i had the chance, i'd quit doing it. but it's almost if i'm addicted to his attention. he doesn't have time for me anymore so i loosened up my schedule just so when he had the chance. i'd be there.
i wanted to marry him, i'm not so sure anymore.
i thought we were a one. but now it feels like a spliting two,'
if i had the chance,
i'd look prettier for you, i'd treat you more nicely, i wouldn't lose myself in emotional rage. i wanted a family, i wanted to wake up to you everymorning of everyday. for the rest of my life. you were the perfect idea of my imaginary guy. but i feel as if your fading away. i'm so lost. and i don't want to talk about it any longer. but just remember, when your in college,
you with your future someone
i will always love you.
i only wish i could have done more.
i am no longer strong, i surrender to you.
my love.

|Synthesis, Characterization and Biocompatibility of Biodegradable Hyperbranched Polyglycerols from Acid-cleavable Ketal Group Functionalized Initiators.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22920950 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Herein we report the synthesis of biodegradable hyperbranched polyglycerols (BHPGs) having acid-cleavable core structure by anionic ring opening multi-branching polymerization (ROMBP) of glycidol using initiators bearing dimethyl and cyclohexyl ketal groups. Five different multifunctional initiators carrying one to four ketal groups and hydroxyl groups per molecule were synthesized. The hydroxyl carrying initiator containing a dimethyl ketal group was synthesized from ethylene glycol. An alkyne-azide click reaction was used for synthesizing initiators containing multiple cyclohexyl ketal linkages and hydroxyl groups. The synthesized BHPGs exhibited monomodal molecular weight distributions and polydispersity in the range of 1.2-1.6 indicating the controlled nature of the polymerizations. The polymers were relatively stable at physiological pH but degraded at acidic pHs. The polymer degradation was dependent on the type of ketal structure present in the BHPG; polymers with cyclohexyl ketal groups degraded at much slower rates than those with dimethyl ketal groups at a given pH. Good control of polymer degradation was achieved at mild acidic conditions by changing the structure of ketal linkages. A precise control of the molecular weight of the degraded HPG was achieved by controlling the number of ketal groups within the core as revealed from the gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analyses. The decrease in the polymer molecular weights upon degradation was correlated well with the number of ketal groups in their core structure. Our data support the suggestion that glycidol was polymerized uniformly from all the hydroxyl groups of the initiators. BHPGs and their degradation products were highly biocompatible as measured by blood coagulation, complement activation, platelet activation and cell viability assays. The controlled degradation profiles of these polymers together with their excellent biocompatibility make them suitable for drug delivery and bioconjugation applications.

Countdown To Kickoff (2 Days)
Over the past 10 years, five NFL teams – New England (124-36, .775), Indianapolis (111-49, .694), Pittsburgh (105-55, .656), San Diego (100-60, .625) and Green Bay (96-63-1, .603) – have posted a winning percentage of .600 or better. Those five clubs have combined for 37 playoff berths, nine Super Bowl appearances and five Super Bowl championships during that span.
Since being drafted by Pittsburgh in 2004, quarterback BEN ROETHLISBERGER and the Steelers have made three Super Bowl appearances, winning Super Bowl XL and XLIII.
"I think it's a fair assessment to call him a winner," says Pittsburgh head coach MIKE TOMLIN about Roethlisberger. "He's been to the big dance and delivered. That's what this profession is about."
Under the guidance of head coach BILL BELICHICK, the Patriots (124-36, .775) have the best regular-season record over the past 10 years, qualifying for the postseason nine times and winning Super Bowl XXXIX.
"Coach Belichick is the best coach that I've ever competed against," says Denver Broncos quarterback PEYTON MANNING. "I think it's safe to say he'll go down as the greatest NFL coach of all time."

This review is of the 3 items at a time subscription from 4/11 through 5/15.
LONDON TIMES – Elbow Sleeve Ruched Dress
This dress was super fancy! It fit great and was flattering, too. The chiffon layer made it feel super feminine, too.
TART COLLECTIONS – Courtney Dress In Blurred Lines
This dress was also very flattering, and I enjoyed the cheerful spring palette!
KAREN KANE – Printed Houndstooth Dress
If you look at the model on the GB website, this dress looks so flattering and sexy. In reality, the color contrast is not as vivid, and it's pretty dumpy on. Also the material was a bit too thick for comfort in late spring. I was disappointed with this one.
CITY CHIC – Scarf Print Longline Jacket
This, on the other hand, I absolutely LOVED! I love the Asian print, and the side panels are very slimming. I seriously considered buying this piece!
This is another piece that looked kind of cool on the model, but when I got it in my hands it was a bit of a trainwreck. It has a very matronly cut, along with having a tie in the front. It's super flowy. Then the pattern is really cool and futuristic. Then the V is way, way too low. This shirt just doesn't know what it wants to be.
TRISTE – Helix Nebula V-Neck Tunic
This top was a pleasure to wear! It was soft, fit well, and hit exactly right at the hip, arm, and bust. The material was a little thick (it's getting hot here), but not too much. I also really love space prints!
TRISTE – Etched Pastel Shift Dress
This was my favorite piece all month! It was comfortable yet flattering, and there's something about the print I totally loved! I hated to send this one back – it's another one I seriously considered buying!
This top was really cool looking. I absolutely loved the print. The weird thing, though, is that I thought it was one of those mock twinsets where the cardigan and shell are sewn together, but it's not. It's just a regular top that drapes that easy! So it was extra roomy and comfortable. Not incredibly flattering, though.
The Verdict: I received eight pieces this month, and due to some travel I wasn't completely focused on the receive-wear-return-instantly method I had been doing last month. April is still my PR with Gwynnie Bee – 11 pieces in one month. It's hard to speak of value with a rental service, but $70 is certainly cheaper than buying eight pieces, even at a deep discount. I would probably take advantage of their purchase program more often, except I get bored with clothing pretty quickly, so renting for me is a perfect solution! I also wanted to see what it would take to actually receive a blouse or jacket instead of all dresses like I did last month! I removed all but two or three dresses from my closet this month, and I got all the dresses. BUT I finally got some tops! I really liked (or loved) most of the pieces this month. Gwynnie Bee is working out really well for me!
What do you think of Gwynnie Bee?

we fight constantlyVisitor's Question from a 16-20 year old Female
My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 7 months. When we first started dating we were GREAT! but then as every relationship goes after 3 months we started to fight. we started to fight over little things that didnt matter. i lose control of my anger and loudness of my voice. he doesnt understand what i try and tell him. i end up in tears. i will try and walk away from him so i can calm down and he pulls me to him and it actually kind of hurts and then he will just try and get me to talk to him. and it just doesnt work that way i get upset and then we'll talk and i'll become late for class. we both agree we dont want to fight anymore. but we always do. he will say you do this and that and right when he says that i just dont want to listen i just want to hang up the phone or walk away from him. we had a serious talk last week but we were okay till today. what should i do?
RomanceClass.com Advice
You probably learned your fighting style from your mother.
It isn't very productive but changing it would be very difficult.
Try this for a while: whenever a fight crops up just stop and AGREE with him.
That will surprise him and hopefully reduce the tension between you. Do this a number of times and see how it works. If it works, then suggest to him that you two take turns agreeing with each other.
You will definitely find agreeing more fun than disagreeing. You will love it.
Good luck! George

The notion that a camel has a better chance of crawling through the eye of a needle than a rich man does of setting up shop in heaven couldn't be further from the culture of TEFAF, whose press releases talk of 170 private jets descending on the Maastricht airport and about 65,000 tulips adorning the halls of the convention center.
But whatever the odds, there was a lot to be said about religion and religious art at TEFAF. In virtually ever section of the fair–paintings, antiques, modern, manuscripts, classical antiquities, design, works on paper, and jewelry–there were at least dozens of examples of fascinating works with religious content and themes (and, to be fair, many not so interesting works).…

Prehistoric sites of the Eyzies-de-Tayac
Two caves of the Vézère valley, designated world heritage sites by UNESCO
Come and discover an exceptional grouping of prehistoric sites at Les Eyzies-de-Tayac in Dordogne-Périgord (Aquitaine), most of which are on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Encounter Homo sapiens, the remains of his habitat, his daily activities and his art.
A major testimony to the rock art of the Magdalenian Period, the cave of "Font de Gaume" contains an exceptional collection of polychrome paintings, as well as engravings. The shelter of "Cap Blanc" presents remarkable carved architecture.
Abri of Cap-Blanc
A remarkable Prehistoric sculpted frieze
This Prehistoric cave from the Magdalenian era lies just a few kilometres east of Les Eyzies on the right bank of the Beune river. It was classified as a listed site in 1926 in recognition of its unique sculptures. The frieze covers all but two metres of the 15-metre deep cave and features horses, bison and deer, some of which overlap. Originally, the sculptures were probably coloured since traces of ochre pigment were found during earlier archaeological digs.
The remarkable depth and vibrancy of these sculptures carved with flint tools make the Cap-Blanc Cave one of the greatest masterpieces of Prehistoric art from the Upper Palaeolithic period. A museographical area around the friezes gives an overview of Cap-Blanc life and art.

HarshCriticFeb 20, 2009Not enough characters and incredibly frustrating controls. If you're looking for a good boxing game wait for the remake of Punch Out.
Oct 7, 2011Mindless fun and playable for a while, but no storyline and short replay value brings it low.
The graphics are also nice but the enemy difficulty is unbalanced.
All and all a game which will entertain for a while but thereafter becomes repetitive.
Jan 19, 2013Its the silly gameplay and customization that you will love. Other than that I have very little to compliment... Still worth a look. Just a fairly average fighter.
Feb 3, 2013The game is good, but far from amazing. The graphics and sound are excellent, and the game is well polished. The mission structure works well, the controls are excellent, but the combat is simple and it's pretty hard. So you're best advised to play with a friend. There's tons of content as well.
Feb 16, 2016When I got it it was almost free, when I got rid of it I just gave it away. I don't know what this game was supposed to be and why it even existed in the first place.
Dec 11, 2013Horrible controls, frustrating game play and a stupidly hard difficulty curve to say the least. If you're a boxing fan do not buy this game because as fair as boxing goes this isn't it. All in all a terrible gaming experience and a waste of money and that's saying something considering I got the game second hand for £4.
Awards & Rankings
Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)It may look harmless enough, but that colorful candy shell - which, admittedly, is delightfully goofy - disguises the ashen heart of a hardcore fighting game that, while occasionally quite frustrating, offers a satisfying challenge and an unexpectedly deep and demanding combat system. [Oct 2008, p.84]
Edge MagazineFacebreaker is vacuous, its interface without flair and its novelties without purpose beyond littering the boards at Gamefaqs. [Oct 2008, p.95]
GameProI have to admit FaceBreaker does have a lot of potential. But as hard as I tried to like the game, I just couldn't get into it that much. [Oct 2008, p.96]

Several months ago, I wrote about a new online backup service called Backblaze, which at that time was available to Mac users only in a beta form, by private invitation (see "Backblaze Launches Mac Beta of Online Backup Service," 2008-12-09). After extensive beta testing, and a few much-requested modifications, the company has now finally opened the service to everyone. If you've been thinking about using online backups, or if you've tried another service and been disappointed, Backblaze may well be worth a look.

First, it is insane to give one man responsiblity for giving away $700 billion.
Paulson is from Wall Street. You cannot have the fox guard the chickens. That is as dumb as letting a Senator become President.
Second, it will create a 20 year swamp of bureaucratic corruption, bribery, embezzlement, and massive fraud. Crooks like Obama's Rezko will steal a billion dollars at a time.
Third, it prevents us from finding out what a house is really worth, so that the depression will not be fixed and the bundled CDO's will continue to implode, resulting in at least another ten years of bank write-offs and bank closings.
Fourth, it extends the great Freeloader mentality began by FDR until it has addicted Republican Congress as well as Democrats, creating a Freeloader society.
Historically, every time the Federal Reserve has taken over a bank or savings and loan, the failed institution has been seized by the Fed's staff arriving at the target institution's headquarters after the close of business on Friday night, so that the public has the opportunity to adjust to the shock over the weekend, and so that there will not be a run of withdrawals the next morning.
This time, it would appear that the Fed was manipulated by politics regarding the public opposition to the Democratic Congress' support of Paulson's $700 billion, no strings attached, gift to his colleagues on Wall Street.
By Thursday afternoon it was clear that the Republicans in Congress had finally decided to listen to the wishes of the voters, and were refusing to go along with the Democratic Finance Chiefs Senators Chris Dodd and detached Barack Obama.
So the Fed attempted to panic the public by taking over Washington Mutual on Thursday night instead of over the weekend.
The Fed is part of the criminal conspiracy seeking to panic the public and the ignorant buffoons in Congress into a fearful stampede or else the world will end!
This is contemptible manipulation of the public through false fear, identical to the strategy of fearful stampede into the second Iraq war.
Thursday's seizure of Washington Mutual by the Fed is a despicable attempt to use fear and panic to stampede both Congress and the public into a totally wrong and incredibly absurd course of action.
The $700 billion gift to Wall Street makes no sense at all and does nothing to treat the root cause of our problem, which is the permission of the government to financial institutions to bundle mortgages into tradable security packages.
The first step in curing the problem is to outlaw CDO and CMO packages, because they separate accountability from risk, thereby encouraging what should be criminalized activity bu unscrupulous mortgage lenders.
Paulson's and the Democratic Congress want the bailout package to include "adjusting" individual mortgages downward, not to the new market value of the home, but to what the borrower can afford. Who determines, and by what mechanism, what the borrower can afford.
The adjustment provision goes far beyond socialism: it is pure Communism and abject redistribution of wealth.
No financial system on earth, and no nation, can survive is the government haas the authority to "adjust" individual's debts.
The bailout package may well be the end of America.
Call your Congressmen and tell them you oppose every aspect of the bailout package.
Current laws and the operation of the Federal Reserve are everything we need for the markets to reach equilibrium. No intervention by government can make the oversupply of housing disappear.
Local governments and pressures within the Democratic Party to seze the foreclosed homes, or to use taxpayer dollars to repo them, and use them for low cost community housing is nothing but the purest form of Marxist Communism that will bankrupt America.
Every elected official who supports the Bush/Chris Dodd/Barack /Obama/Democrats bailout plans should be impeached, AND I mean it.
If you want to impeach everyone who supports the mortgage bailout send a blank email to firstname.lastname@example.com
Then go to these sites and tell your elected officials that you "OPPOSE THE BAILOUT"
President Bush, and both Obama and McCain, please come up with a different plan.


text: Hello all, Concerning the 5-color filter wheel for the 373A: we didn't design it (although thanks for the thought, Francis!), but we've been using it along with the Sequenase terminator chemistry which Bruce aptly referenced for about 1.5 years. It's a tremendous improvement over the Taq terminator chemistry, although does carry the requirement for ssDNA. To use the new chemistry, you'll need to replace your current filter wheel with a 5-color filter wheel (four filters for dye-primers, four for Seq terminators; i.e. the filter sets overlap). You'll also need a new ROM cartridge. A field service engineer is required for the installation. When will ABI be able to have this hardware in everyones hands? The problem is getting enough filters (the new one, 530 nm, is tough to QC). They're trying for a product release around the first of November. I've got good connections with ABI R&D, so I'll post any good news I hear to this news- group (nice job Bruce, getting it going). Any other questions on the chemistry, feel free to ask. R.

Case study
Adobe Connect Pro at University of Glasgow
The Medical School at the University of Glasgow needed an online web conferencing solution to be used as part of a 3-year postgraduate programme. After consulting with them, we suggested Adobe Connect Pro, arranged the licensing of the application, and trained them in the best ways to use it.
Read the full article
Why did they come to us?
Phillip Evans, the university's Director for the Centre of Educational Scholarship, wanted to be able to hold meetings online and communicate with up to 30 students at a time.
What did they need?
A user-friendly web conferencing solution that allowed multimedia sharing (both audio and video), and included presentation screens and chat boxes.
How did we help?
After consulting with the university our consultant, Anthony Hammond, suggested Adobe Connect Pro. Connect Pro includes all of the features needed to set up a virtual conference. It also comes with easy user management and the ability for everyone attending meetings to be both seen and heard. For Phillip and his students, one of the key benefits of the solution is that Connect Pro only requires Flash Player; users with this installed on their computer are already able to access all of Connect Pro's features.
The solution also provided Phillip with the opportunity to record meetings and archive them. Students would be able to access these for revision purposes or, if they were unable to attend at the time, play them back offline. Connect Pro would run on Adobe's servers, but we were able to license the product for the university and get everything up and running. With a little training from us, Phillip was able to comfortably use the application and was ready to start using it as part of the course.
What were the benefits?
The Adobe Connect Pro solution is now being used as part of a 3-year postgraduate degree programme run by the Medical School at the university. It has proved very successful, and students (both inside and outside the UK) are now able to communicate with each other and the course leaders.
The University of Glasgow has now decided to run a further two courses that use Connect Pro. After seeing the success of the original course, Phillip Evans also plans on using the application again for future programmes.
For more information on this customer case study, and to see more examples of our work, get in touch.
Who are the University of Glasgow?
One of the top 100 universities in the world, the University of Glasgow is a research-led institution, with around 5000 postgraduate students and over 5000 staff. With an international focus, the University encourages collaboration across continents and attracts students from more than 100 countries.

Smithson Valley's Larry Hill has been asked to return for another round of talks as the University of the Incarnate Word intensifies its search for a head football coach.
Jim Rodrigue, athletic director at Comal Independent School District, said Monday that Hill is one of the candidates that has been asked to interview again for the job.
Asked if Hill had taken the UIW position, Rodrigue said, "No sir, he hasn't yet. They're in a process down there, is what I understand."
Rodrigue said UIW has conducted interviews and has invited some of the candidates to talk again.
"To my understanding, they've interviewed so many and they're bringing so many back this week," he said. "What I can tell you is Larry is one of them that's going back."
UIW officials said last week that they wanted to hire a coach by Dec. 23, but that they could make a decision as early as Monday.
Officials at UIW couldn't immediately be reached for comment.
Hill has won 202 games in 21 seasons as a coach on the high school level, including two at Jourdanton and the last 19 at Smithson Valley.
With the Rangers, he guided his team to three state championship games and a 192-53 record (for a .784 winning percentage).
For his career, he is 202-64 (.759).
"I think (his record) speaks for itself," Rodrigue said. "He's one of the most highly-organized and competitive people in the business, and I think what he's done is a result of those things.
"You know, if this were to work out, and he were to take that job, he would be greatly missed. You don't lose one of the top guys in the business and not feel it."
UIW reportedly has or is expected to conduct face-to-face interviews with Todd Ivicic and Tony Marciano, two members of the previous coaching staff.
Ivicic interviewed last Friday, the day that UIW officials announced that they would set plans in motion immediatedly to upgrade its program to NCAA Division I.

Phone Scoop Review
May 2, 2008 by Eric M. Zeman
Successor to the popular enV, the enV2 pares down on the size and makes improvements on the hardware. The only thing preventing it from being a superb phone is the software. read review ›
User Reviews
Average Ratings
Wonderful Phone. People complain about the small screen but that is no problem if you want to send a brief message. You can turn the Bluetooth on using the keys on the front. That is a big plus when you consider that you had to go thru menus to get to the Bluetooth. It is a very easy phone to use when you consider the old ENV. I have had MANY Verizon phones and I have never given any of them ratings. Most of them were just bad. This phone gets a 5.0

enV2 VS Voyager
So, right now Verizon's hottest new phone is the Voyager, but I personally find the enV2 to still be a great phone that is, unlike the Voyager, cost effective. The enV2 happens to cost about $250 less than the Voyager.
* Extremely useful front screen that basically serves as another phone. This allows you to easily and quickly text back or answer a call. A great idea. (this the Voyager doesn't have)
*Unlike other phones the flip mechanism doesn't seem to break easily.
*Great battery charge
*Good speaker quality, great for using as a speaker phone
*Keys are easy to press down and clickey on both the front and the inside
*A great phone for a reasonable price (the Voayager is like $350!)
*A great size, can fit in small pockets
*Good look and feel to it
*Great camera
*Really customizable, which is great
*It isn't a touch screen (which the Voyager does have and can be useful in many ways)
*When you text from the front, it defaults to Abc, but when texting from the inside it defaults to abc
*If you take a photo or video and forget to hit the "save" button they won't save and you'll lose them
*Not the best camera for taking quick snapshots (although the camera is very good!)
*Lock function is easy to use, but tends to become unlocked on accident a lot
*Could probably use more shortcut keys (Getting to your inbox is something you have to get used to)
*While I use to music button, if you don't you won't like it there because it is not programmable
While the Voyager has a touch screen and all that jazz, the enV2 is still a great phone. The main difference between the two is that one has a touch screen (which can be handy I'll admit) Plus, the Voyager is the first, which means it has glitches that won't be worked out till the second one. The enV2's have for the most part already have been fixed Depending on your plan an what not, to get the Voyager you have to upgrade you service. I do not think this is true with the enV2.

Sceptical at first
When I was looking for a phone I looked at this phone and wasn't sure about it.
I picked it up for a few reasons and since the price wasn't too high.
-Great reception wherever I go.
-Easy to use menu's and easily Customizable
-Keyboard is nice
-Battery Life is Great (Didn't charge for two and half days while using all the music and texting stuff on the phone)
-Camara is very good
-Fast loading times
-Space key on keyboard is sometimes hard to hit (the period key seems to be my space key 90% of the time, proper english really isn't used while texting)

Love my Env2
I've had the maroon env2 for a few hours now and it is wonderful! It is everything I need in a phone and more. I love the fact that I can text on the front the way I'm used to or open it for the Qwerty keyboard.
The only thing I have found that irks me a little is that on my contacts I couldn't put multiple numbers under the same name on the front.I was worried about the small screen on the front but its nothing to fret about. You are still able to do everything you need to.
That is truly the only slight negative I have found! And thats really not a big deal at all.
This phone is extremely user friendly. The speaker phone is loud which is great. LG did great when they made this phone!

A lot of phone in a compact package
-Great QVGA internal screen
-Very nice external and internal keypads (very clicky)
-Responsive interface (by Verizon standards)
-Mobile Web is quite fast
-Plays MPEG4 video
-MicroSD slot easy to access
-Many keyboard shortcuts and custom options
-Good (not spectacular) call quality
-Good balance between small size and ease of use
-Somewhat weird front keypad locking mechanism is causing people problems (although I haven't had any phantom calls)
-Front screen cannot be set to remain on
-Weak vibrate mode
-Stuck with some ugly verizon software, like the MP3 player
Even though it's a bit quirky and is saddled with some dated verizon software, I'm still really enjoying this phone. It's easy to use and powerful enough for me without costing an arm and a leg.

Awesome Phne
This is a great phone; I was a little hesitant at first. But I really love the phone. Highly recommended.
The feel of the phone.
Internal Keyboard easier to use.
Text Message In-box holds a ton of messages.
Battery Life
Perfect size
Speaker Phone
The music button: I don't use it; I would rather another function key.
That's the only con I can think of for me.

Great phone for average user
The enV2 is simply a great, reliable phone. I have not found that the small screen on the outside limits the phone much if at all. I don't understand people complaining about because if you think about it, it does much more than the outside screens of most flip phones. Here are some pros and cons but the cons are hardly worth mentioning. Overall it is just a great phone for the average person. It is not the phone for an internet surfer or business man/woman but it is awesome for texting, music, calls, and just messing around with.
-Great design, weight, and feel
-Long battery life
-Good reception
-External keypad feels just perfect
-Internal keypad is the best QWERTY pad I have felt
-Plenty of soft keys for shortcuts
-Internal screen is large and bright
-Camera has plenty of options and takes good pictures (They aren't awesome but they are pretty good, especially for not having AF)
-Holding the phone to take a picture can be a little awkward
-Unlocking keys is easy but can be annoying

This is a very nice phone. I only have a complaints.
-Smaller then the EV(9900)
-Very simple outer key pad
-QWERTY inside
-You can change your display themes
-Mini usb charger
-Strong service
-No full HTML browser (I was hoping this phone would have a HTML browser not just the Mini browser.)
-Same old Verizon user interface (you can change the look of it but it is still the same old UI
- The key QWERTY pad is a little smaller but still usable.
This is a good phone it would have been much better is it had the full HTML browser.

Physically nice, menus/shortcuts need tweeking
Here are my pros n cons:
-speakerphone loud
-not cheap feeling
-VZ Navigator 4.0 has traffic alerts - saved me 30 minutes yesterday by warning me about an accident and detoured me around traffic jam.
-text messaging is effortless.
-qwerty is right size, easy to use.
--MENUS! Click on softkey MESSAGE - it defaults to NEW message- 99 times out of a 100 when I hit message I want my INBOX, not new messaget!!! What were they thinking! - three button pushes to your inbox! There is a shortcut button on the inside directional pad that can take you right to inbox, though.
-soft keys are not programable!
-limited shortcut button settngs. They LEFT OUT commonly used ones like: call settings-answer options, end call options, specific vcast video sites like news, weather (29 button pushes to get to my local news broadcast! I counted!!! REALLY NEED A SHORTCUT FOR THIS), also, web favorites needs a shortcut.
-Cannot change items on the Main menu, you have two choices - messaging icons or mulimedia icons - I like to use a mixture of both, if I could choose my main menu items I would get rid of the games icon (you have to pay a subscription to use them), and replace it with email icon, but there is no option to do that.
--Hit the OK button on the front to unlock, constantly unlocks itself in purse and pocket. Frustrating, no work around, I tried using the phone security lock function but it only turns on if you turn the phone off then on again.
-keypad locks if you hesitate more than 7 seconds between numbers whn dialing, have to start dialing all over again. Set it for more than 7 seconds and you have to wait that long for it to lock to put it away.
-To many key pressed needed to get MISSED CALLS from external - hit OK TWICE (unlock) for menu, then scroll down to RECENT CALLS, then click on MISSED - this requires several button pushes and using more than one button (directional buttons needed to scroll through list).

Env 2- had for 3 days now
I have had almost every verizon cell phone there is. I get a new phone quite often...its my weakness. Anyway, I'm a big fan of the LG Lineup. Had the 6000,7000, 8000, 8100, 8300, 8500, 8550, env, and voyager. Just got the ENV 2 3 days ago (received it in the mail before its release on April 30th). I am very impressed with the phone. The most noticeable thing for me was the SIZE. It's alot smaller than I thought, which is GREAT. I will list the Pro's and Cons...
Size (alot smaller in person than pictures)
large keypad on front
camera- pretty good 2.0mp
inside display- bigger than original
inside keyboard -more compact
general feel of the phone is great
alot of customization on the phone (display themes, etc)
Battery Life is great (best battery life for me was the new lg chocolate) and this seems to match that, or even be better.
If anything, the external display (bc of its limited functionality). But the PRO's clearly outweigh the cons).
You can access from the external screen: contacts, messaging, recent calls, my music, bluetooth menu and keyguard setting.
When texting from outside, you can only text 1 person at a time.
Overall, its the best phone ive ever had, and ive had A TON of phones. If you want a slick, somewhat thin phone that has a keyboard and no touch screen, you'll love this. Compared to the original ENV i had, ALOT better in my opinion.
Hope this helps.

NEW ORLEANS, July 3 (UPI) -- Rapper, songwriter and actress Mary Blige had a busy week, performing at the Superdome in New Orleans, graduating from high school and launching a perfume.
Blige's schedule this weekend includes putting in some time at a booth at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, handing out free samples of My Life, The (New Orleans) Times-Picayune reported. The fragrance, her first, is named after her 1994 album.
"My Life' is being distributed by Carol's Daughter, a company specializing in natural skin products. It will be available starting July 31 through the HSN shopping network. A dollar from every sale will go to the Foundation for the Advancement of Women Now .
Blige told The Times-Picayune she was "100 percent involved" in developing the fragrance. She described the experience as "enlightening."
As for her high school diploma, Blige, 39, said she received one this week from New York City, more than 20 years after she dropped out of the 11th grade. She said she has been accepted by Howard University and she is learning French to play Nina Simone in a movie.

Arsnick: The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee in Arkansas
University of Arkansas Press, 2012 - Political Science - 321 pages
The Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) arrived in Arkansas in October 1962 at the request of the Arkansas Council on Human Relations, the state affiliate of the Southern Regional Council. SNCC efforts began with Bill Hansen, a young white Ohioan--already an early veteran of the civil rights movement--who traveled to Little Rock in the early sixties to help stimulate student sit-in movements promoting desegregation. Thanks in large part to SNCC's bold initiatives, most of Little Rock's public and private facilities were desegregated by 1963, and in the years that followed many more SNCC volunteers rushed to the state to set up projects across the Arkansas Delta to help empower local people to take a stand against racial discrimination. In the five short years before it disbanded, the SNCC's Arkansas Project played a pivotal part in transforming the state, yet this fascinating branch of the national organization has barely garnered a footnote in the history of the civil rights movement. This collection serves as a corrective by bringing articles on SNCC's activities in Arkansas together for the first time, by providing powerful firsthand testimonies, and by collecting key historical documents from SNCC's role in the region's emergence from the slough of southern injustice.

Last week in the West Virginia House of Delegates numerous bills were passed and sent to the Senate for further consideration. One of those bills, which was co-sponsored by Delegate Justin Marcum, deals specifically with pill mills. "We all know prescription drug abuse is plaguing our state and ruining the lives of many who are caught in this downward spiral and that is why I supported this bill and spoke in is favor," stated Marcum. "By fighting against pill mills we can assure our citizens that we are serious about tackling the drug problem in West Virginia."
The bill titled Prohibiting Healthcare Practitioners from Prescribing or Administering Drugs Other Than in a Good Faith, Therapeutic Manner passed the House of Delegates 97-0. HB 4327 provides that if any healthcare practitioner knowingly or in bad faith prescribes, dispenses, administers, mixes, or others prepare a drug, including controlled substances, in a manner not in accordance with accepted medical standards is unlawful. Any person who violates this code section will be subject to a felony and, in addition, a minimum fine of $250,000.00 and shall be imprisoned for not less than 5 years nor more than 10 years.
Delegate Marcum was quoted as saying this bill is important to the State of West Virginia and will be "another tool" we can use to fight against pill mills and drug abuse. "Pill mills continue to plague our communities and ruin the lives of many. I am committed to fighting the war on drugs even if it requires establishing criminal penalties against the very few doctors who abuse their prescription pads."
House Majority Leader Harry Keith White also supported the piece of legislation. "By implementing this act we can move forward and continue to fight against prescription drug abuse. It is vital to the future of our area that we eradicate all pill mills and work to make our area much more prosperous."
Marcum and White were joined by Speaker Tim Miley, Delegates Tomblin, Rupie Phillips, Sponaugle, Lynch, Skaff, Boggs, Caputo, and Manchin in supporting this bill. Each of these co-sponsors worked hard to get this bill through the House. They all agree and urge everyone to contact their Senators in order to get this bill on the agenda in the Senate. "We have concerns if this bill will run in the Senate," stated Delegate Marcum. "I hope the Senate will run the bill and help us with the fight against drugs."

But this is what He promised by the mouth of the Apostle: You are the body of Christ, and severally His membersSt. Augustine of Hippo
Be pure and simple, and love all because all are one. Live a sincere life; be natural, and be honest with yourself.Honesty will guard you against false modesty and will give you the strength of true humility. Spare no pains to help others. Seek no other reward than the gift of Divine Love.Meher Baba
Beauty is indeed a good gift of God; but that the good may not think it a great good, God dispenses it even to the wicked.St. Augustine of Hippo
The command has been to "go," but we have stayed - in body, gifts, prayer and influence. He has asked us to be witnesses unto the uttermost parts of the earth... but 99% of Christians have kept puttering around in the homeland.Robert Savage
An infinitude of tenderness is the chief gift and inheritance of all truly great men.John Ruskin
The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other.Burton Hillis
To be a well-flavored man is the gift of fortune, but to write or read comes by nature.William Shakespeare
Give yourself the gift of time in coming to answers for your lifeIt takes time, and a lot of introspection and soul-searching, to get clear about what you really want to manifest in your life.David Emerald
If a child is to keep alive his inborn sense of wonder without any such gift from the fairies, he needs the companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with him the joy, excitement and mystery of the world we live in.Rachel Carson
If I were given the opportunity to present a gift to the next generation, it would be the ability for each individual to learn to laugh at himself.Charles M. Schulz
Education is our greatest opportunity to give an irrevocable gift to the next generation.Ernie Fletcher

A recent survey by the Nunavut government found 98 people in the territory are living in shelters, shacks and tents.
The capital is the hardest hit: 57 people rely on the city's emergency shelters.
Another 15 are finding shelter anywhere they can, including the abandoned shacks dotting Iqaluit's shoreline.
The government surveyed people in Iqaluit, Rankin Inlet and Cambridge Bay in February.
The count did not look at overcrowded homes, but instead surveyed those who use shelters and food banks and live in tents and shacks.
Jeannie Ugyuk, the minister for homelessness and poverty reduction, released the findings in the legislative assembly on Monday.
"This has produced a great deal of valuable information about how people find themselves to be homeless in Nunavut, and what they need to find to maintain housing."
Ugyuk says the government will be sharing its findings at a community consultation some time in the next few weeks.

NM: Speaking of which, what sort of reception or feedback are you getting from the wineries themselves?
EC: We're getting a lot of great feedback — and this, of course, applies more to the Cruvee for Wineries site. Because of the information we're able to provide to them, they know exactly where their brand is (they're able monitor that), they're able to interact directly with people who are on our site as well as other sites because of the aggregation of information that we put into their dashboard and tools. And we allow them to be the exclusive retailer to sell their wine, because the whole direct-to-consumer market is what we feel is important. We're getting a lot of great feedback from them right now, and it's only a matter of time for them to be able to see even more value [in Cruvee].
NM: Are you getting a sense of how the wineries are using this information?
EC: Looking the sample screenshots for Twisted Oak Winery [below], what we're able to do is show them who are their new fans, their new consumers, along with their demographics and buying patterns and such, as well as what's being said about their brand across the whole web today. We take the information from thousands of blogs, several of the social media outlets, and lot of different forums, and then aggregate that information, providing the winery with a brand-monitoring service, if you will. And then they have the opportunity to interact with [customers online] who are talking about their brand, whether it's negative or positive chatter — they have the opportunity to really connect with them. As you know with [services like] Twitter and everything else, if [a winery] is just a marketing machine, they're going to get kicked out of the water. But now [with Cruvee], they have the opportunity to be a part of the online community, as opposed to just a marketing arm.
NM: Wow, this has some serious implications for market research. Using your tools, a winery can start to gauge attitudes, opinions, and knowledge on the part of consumers who are drinking their wines — the kind of information for which they'd otherwise have to move mountains to get! Let's be honest: traditional means of market research are inherently very inefficient and costly.
EC: Right, absolutely — and we recognize that! Because of that we take the consumer side of the Cruvee site and apply the information from their reviews, along with their demographic information, and give [the wineries] the opportunity to a) connect directly with those consumers through other marketing channels, and b) learn about what's being said about their brand and how their wines are being rated and reviewed over time.
There's another side to the coin here, too, on the social media side. If [a winery's] brand is not being talked about at all, that's actually worse than having negative chatter. So, we give them the opportunity and some guides to getting into social media outlets. Like with Twitter, we'll suggest certain people to 'follow' so it gets to that viral process, without having to make it an actual marketing position. There's a couple of different avenues we're trying to provide to the wineries to get into that social community, as much as access the research behind it.
NM: Now, you mentioned that the information provided through Cruvee will allow wineries to better market and sell their wines directly to consumers — bypassing the entire three-tier system of traditional wine retail. Would you say that consumer-direct sales are what this entire model hinges on and might, in turn, actually strengthen and propagate?
EC: It's definitely one avenue. No winery should have to compete with an online retailer for their own customers. So, why should we have to make them try to compete with those retailers, or even give us commissions? We don't want that type of situation in place. We want it so they have the opportunity to connect directly with consumers, and reap the benefits to consumer-direct sales. It's important, because obviously once you start building the loyalty of a customer directly with a winery, you can start giving him more information and making them feel like they are truly part of a family, as opposed to being a guy who goes to Wineshop X to buy a bottle of wine, whom then you don't anything about later on.

FL Studio can function as a ReWire client with ReWire enabled hosts. When functioning as a ReWire client, FL Studio sends all of its audio output to the ReWire host (providing up to 16 individual stereo outputs). FL Studio synchronizes with the host transport controls (playback/stop, song position) and has ability to send and receive MIDI data from the host.
FL Studio ReWire has the following specific features:
Outputs, when used as a ReWire client, FL Studio provides 16 stereo outputs (32 paired mono channels). By default the first output pair is assigned to the Master mixer track, which means the whole project mix is sent to the first output pair. You can change this combination to fit your needs. For example, you can assign each Mixer track to a separate output, thus assigning individual outputs to a maximum of 16 individual mixer tracks in the Rewire host.
Plugins being used in FL Studio with multiple outputs should have these outputs routed to individual mixer tracks, this way they will become individually available through the Mixer outputs to the Rewire host.
ReWire allows MIDI IN and MIDI OUT via the ReWire connection. The ReWire output bus appears as a regular MIDI output device in the MIDI Settings window of FL Studio.
The ReWire MIDI output is usually linked to port 10, but you can change this assignment to suit your needs (to use it, add a MIDI Out channel set to the same port).
MIDI input works by mapping the first 16 channels (in order) in the Step Sequencer to 16 unique MIDI channels. To control any of these channels, simply send MIDI from the host to the appropriate channel number in the ReWire MIDI bus.
FL Studio is launched automatically when a ReWire device is activated within the host (since Cubase™ always activates all existing ReWire devices, FL Studio is launched at the startup of Cubase™). Normally, there is no need to launch FL Studio from the shortcut after launching the host.
If the ReWire device is activated, but not used, FL Studio will use a minimum of additional system resources adding little to the CPU load.
However, if you don't intend to use FL Studio as a ReWire device, you can un-register the device (see below).
You can register (enable) the FL Studio ReWire device by launching the Start Menu > Image-Line > Install Plugin Version shortcut. You will be prompted to install the VST plugin first. Click cancel on both boxes and confirm you want to register the ReWire device in the last box.
To unregister (disable) the FL Studio ReWire device, use the Start Menu > Image-Line > Uninstall ReWire Client shortcut.
If you're using a host that supports ReWire devices, and the FL Studio ReWire device is activated, launch FL Studio from the Start Menu shortcut to display the ReWire panel rather than the default interface window. Click the FL Studio logo to toggle the visibility of the FL Studio window inside the host (normally this window is displayed automatically after the ReWire panel is launched).
FL Studio is launched as a process inside the ReWire host. This means that the FL Studio window is 'linked' to the host application window, with the following consequences:
In most cases you'll need to follow these steps to get FL Studio running as a ReWire client in a compatible host:

Follow the Line
This book has such a simple but genius concept. The cover starts a line that runs the entire length of the book continuing from one page to the next. Along it's route over the illustrations it draws additional elements. For example- running through the big city illustration it fills in some of the outline shapes of the buildings, windows and doors all in one line. The illustrations are very flat and simple crisp shapes without any line. So when the black handrawn line runs through them it's really a contrast. A child can run their finger tracing the line through the whole book. Even when you get to the end of a page, the line continues in the same spot on the next page. I can see this idea used for so many children's items beyond books- imagine kid's wallpaper where you could follow the line around the entire room or even bedding- the line could continue from the quilt to the pillow. The illustrator Laura Ljungkvist uses the idea on her website- having one line spell out her name. She has done other children's books and has a new second line book- Follow the Line Through the House which also looks adorable. You can learn more about her here or pick up a copy of the book here.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I will be back on Friday with the sketchbooks and a q+a with Anders Nilsen. Yes you read right-Anders Nilsen! (amazing!)
