France's new trade minister, Thomas Thevenoud, has resigned after nine days in the job, after problems with his taxes arose. It appears to be another setback for President Hollande amid the release of a tell-all book.
The office of the French president confirmed on Thursday night that Francois Hollande had accepted the resignation of trade minister Thomas Thevenoud (pictured), who was appointed less than a fortnight ago in a government reshuffle.
Hollande's office cited personal reasons for the move, but it is understood that Thevenoud resigned because of problems with his taxes.
"He has not resigned because of any political disagreement," a government source told the AFP news agency.
The situation has uncomfortable echoes of the so-called Cahuzac affair of March 2013, when Hollande's budget minister Jerome Cahuzac resigned after being accused of failing to declare funds kept in a Swiss bank.
It has been a rocky two weeks in French politics. Prime Minister Manuel Valls announced a new government on August 25 after the cabinet resigned, amid infighting over France's economy.
On Thursday, France's former first lady, Valerie Trierweiler, released a book painting an unflattering picture of the already unpopular President Hollande. The book detailed the pair's January breakup after news broke of Hollande's affair with actress Julie Gayet.
Confidence in the Socialist leader has plunged to an all-time low of 13 percent, according to a new poll taken before the release of the book.

I just want my bloodwork report not the damn smiley face I got last month. Especially when the only reason the labs are good are because of the parathyroid surgery I had In October! Sheez!
Here are some stickers for bad lab reports. >
Today we ALL got to watch a cartoon on high phosphorus and calcium. We also got a snack (popcorn and graham crackers) then it was nap time.I just love the stimulating intellectual atomsphere.
I use to hate getting those monthly pieces of paper with either a smiley face or a frown on them. Give me a break.
Quote from: willieandwinnie on March 31, 2008, 01:33:39 PMI use to hate getting those monthly pieces of paper with either a smiley face or a frown on them. Give me a break. Like it or not its those monthly pieces of paper that can and will save your life.Too many people do not see the correlation of labs out of wack with potential problems until its too late.It builds up slowly over time and little warning is given until its too late.Calcium buildups that require surgery thus exposing one to unnecessary complications, calcifying of small blood vessels leading to blindness, loss of circulation or calcifying of vessels leading to heart problems. Heart problems is one of the biggest complications of those on dialysis.


text: 44 AN ETHICAL SPACE FOR DIALOGUE ABOUT DIFFICULT HISTORY: FOSTERING CRITICAL THINKING AMONGST STUDENTS IN CANADA'S NORTHWEST TERRITORIES & NUNAVUT Sarah Daitch The potential for developing human capital in the North rests on improved education outcomes for secondary school students. As part of Northwest Territories and Nunavut education systems' respective aims towards improved results, new curriculum materials are being developed in the North. One aim for these materials is to overcome persistent inequalities in educational achievement outcomes in the Canadian North. The territorial education departments developed a mandatory curriculum module regarding the history and legacy of the Canadian governments' former policies of assimilation, and forcible removal of Indigenous children from their families to residential schools. This curriculum and accompanying resource module was piloted in high schools during the 2012-2013 academic year. This article presents a study conducted in collaboration with the territorial departments of education in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, evaluating the curriculum initiative. It examines how Northern Canadian youth connect difficult history with their identity, and become capable of and committed to community and civic engagement in their own lives. Because it is a region undergoing rapid development and governance changes, fostering critical citizenship amongst students is vital. Compassionate students who can think critically will be positioned to improve the Canadian North, and the wider circumpolar Arctic. Introduction: Improving Education in a Transforming Environment In Canada's Northwest Territories (NWT) and Nunavut, there is a renewed focus on improving secondary and post-secondary education outcomes. These aim towards bridging the notable gap in education achievements with the rest of Canada, and with other circumpolar regions.1 In Nunavut, the need for improvement in education was a central issue in the October 2013 election (Kennedy Dalseg 2014). The Government of the Northwest Territories announced its Aboriginal Student Achievement Education Plan in 2011, and in 2012, the NWT Education Renewal and Innovation Sarah Daitch is a mediator, research and public policy consultant and Action Canada Fellow 2013-2014.

Wait before we take another breath
We've lived another moment of our lives
And now is fast becoming then
Wait before you take your lips from mine
How quickly where we are is where we've been
And give is given
Once before I knew that I'd be yours
A moment didn't seem a thing at all
Just like a penny at a fair
Once I never dreamed there'd come a time
When time would need another day
Another week, another year with you
Forever doesn't mean forever anymore
Wait before we take another breath
Before you take your lips away from mine
And where we are is where we've been
Ohh wait
When you're in love the way we are
When every kiss and every touch
And every night is like a dream come true
It's then you realize how small forever is
As now I do
That's why I treasure all the moments of my life
With you

Google's aggressive strategy with Chrome has taken Chrome to a stage where it can claim a dominant browser-market share. Now, where does a company obsessed with speed and performance go from here? Google recently showed off how well Chrome can use the Native Client Technology. With this, Google Chrome will take browser wars to a new level.
The Native Client Technology in Google Chrome has been in news from the beginning of this year. While Mozilla had declared that they will not implement Native Client in their Firefox browser, Opera software had criticized Google for not following the web-standard (WebGL) and allowing game developers a free ride on their browser.
Google Native Client (NaCl in an allusion to sodium chloride or common salt) is a sandboxing technology for running a subset of Intel or ARM native code using software-based fault isolation. Currently in development, it is proposed for safely running native code from a web browser, allowing web-based applications to run at near-native speeds.
Adobe Air provides a Native Code API, and the recently launched Silverlight 5 also brings Native Code into the browser. Moreover, we all know about the notoriety of ActiveX in Internet Explorer. Although Native code has always been an area of interest across platform because of the promised robustness, it poses a risk at the same time.
The "Native Client Technology" project was started to create robust applications by allowing them to leverage native (system) processing speeds. It has been present in Google Chrome 14 dev version as a disabled feature. However, after this stunt by Google, "Native Client Technology" might be reduced to a game-enabling project, which kicks WebGL in the gut.
Visit the Native Client developer page here.

A single Demba Ba goal, scored from close-range in the first half, gave Chelsea a third home league win in a row.
The Blues had the chances for more goals, Oscar in particular having a frustrating afternoon in front of the target, but it was a game that only found a high gear on a few occasions. The handful of times West Brom did threaten the Chelsea goal they found Petr Cech on form and unbeatable. There was some neat approach play at times from the home team who claimed a deserved victory.
Team news
Frank Lampard returned to midfield to become Chelsea's joint third highest appearance maker of all-time and played alongside Ramires. Ahead was Juan Mata making it 100 Chelsea games in less than two years for the Spanaird who operated behind the returning Demba Ba, with Oscar and Eden Hazard the wide midfielders.
David Luiz partnered Branislav Ivanovic in central defence.
West Brom, without on-loan Romelu Lukaku, were able to pass Shane Long fit to play as a lone striker. Their defence was unchanged but they drafted in Graham Dorrans and and Marc-Antoine Fortune to play wide in a 4-2-3-1 shape, mirroring Chelsea and a change from their recent 4-4-2.
First half
With Tottenham having gone ahead of Chelsea in the table last weekend and the north London derby to come on Sunday afternoon, this game at the Bridge was all about winning the three points to put added pressure on Spurs and Arsenal ahead of that clash.
Oscar could, and probably should have put the Blues in front with just three minutes played, the chance made by an exquisite ball by Ba who had taken possession out wide and passed low and out of reach of West Brom's retreating central defence. It came to Oscar just eight yards out but his first-time stab was pushed wide by Ben Foster.
Mata shot across the face of goal and wide moments later before West Brom counter-punched with a Steven Reid free-kick, arrowed past the Chelsea defensive wall. Petr Cech had taken up the correct position and tipped it over the bar.
With 15 minutes played, Oscar was again found on the edge of the six-yard box and in a central position, this time by a Mata cross after Ramires had made in-roads with a run through the middle. The Brazilian's header was straight at Foster. The mask-free Ba was next to find the West Brom keeper's hands, with a skidding shot.
Chelsea were pushing hard for an opener and Hazard, scorer of an important goal in the previous outing at the Bridge, was the player who looked most on his game, frequently coming deep or switching wings to get the team playing.
West Brom were limited in their ambition at this stage of the contest but their many bodies back could not prevent Chelsea having a shot on goal when Yacob fouled Oscar. David Luiz took the free-kick and it was made harder for Foster when it deflected up off the wall, but the former England keeper made it to the top corner to claw the ball wide.
From the corner that followed, the Blues opened the scoring. Oscar and Lampard combined to send a cross to the far post where David Luiz did well to head down and back to Ba. From six yards out the Senegalese swept the ball home. There were 27 minutes played.
Mata went close soon after and then Oscar sweetly half-volleyed a Mata corner. It looked net-bound until a West Brom leg kicked it wide. Oscar wasn't having the luck in front of goal. He and Azpilicueta had further shots blocked.
Chelsea had been well on top but would have liked more than a single-goal lead to take into the dressing room at the break to reflect that balance of play. Fortune's strong running down the right had caused some difficulties for the home team on odd occasions but the early free-kick apart, Cech had been largely untroubled.
There was decent applause for the players for their first half performance as they went down the tunnel, but a hobbling Ramires was assisted by the medical staff as he made the journey.
Second half
Ramires recovered during the interval and took his place among two unchanged sides at the kick-off.
The wait for the 200th Lampard goal continued. Mata ran offside before squaring a Hazard pass to Lamps to find the net early in the half and then the captain on the day hit a free-kick into the wall.
Hazard was the game's first booked player for a late challenge near the corner flag. Chelsea had the Baggies penned well back.
Hazard later believed he should have had a penalty when he and Olsson collided in the area. It was side-to-side contact and the ref waved play on. There was an hour played and time was becoming an increasing concern for the trailing visitors. Steve Clarke made his first change – Peter Odemwingie coming on for Fortune.
A foul was given for a challenge on Hazard by McAuley and it warranted a booking. This was wide outside the area however and the free-kick was cleared.
David Luiz took his turn to fire a free-kick into the wall before, on 77 minutes, yet another instalment of the dual between Oscar and Foster ended in the keeper's favour. Azpilicueta had sent over a speculative cross that Ba headed down well, but the shot from the no.11 was too straight.
Moses came on for Hazard soon after, the first Chelsea change, but before the substitute touched the ball, Oscar collected a throw and turned and wriggled into enough space to properly test Foster with an angled shot. This time it needed a diving stop to deny the Chelsea midfielder.
The needed for the insurance of the second goal was emphasised when the best was brought out of Cech twice in a minute, the first time from an Odemwingie free-kick and then from close-range by a deflection off Azpilicueta as he tried to defend a corner.
Lampard volleyed well over as the second goal proved beyond the Blues and as we survived four minutes added time there was some strong defensive headers inside our area. Cech was asked to save one more low shot before Demba Ba's first goal since mid-January proved enough to win the three points.
Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Cech; Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, David Luiz, Cole; Ramires, Lampard (c); Oscar, Hazard (Moses 79), Mata (Mikel 90+3); Ba (Torres 87).

Ferguson steps up treble quest
Press Association Twelve points clear in the Premier League, and back home from Madrid with an encouraging draw from their Champions League first-leg meeting with Real, United's attentions switch to the FA Cup when they entertain Reading on Monday night. "The manager has stressed that he expects to go to the end in all three competitions," said defender Chris Smalling. "The FA Cup is notoriously unpredictable. Luton reached the fifth round this year, which shows that anything can happen so there is no point looking too far ahead. "But our home form has been good and another victory can give us the impetus to kick on and get to another final." United's last final appearance was in 2007, the first to be played at the new Wembley, when they were beaten in extra time by Chelsea. It was one of a series of unpleasant recent experiences for the Red Devils in a competition they have won a record 11 times. Ferguson has never forgotten how his side dominated Arsenal in 2005 but still got beaten in a penalty shoot-out, whilst Wembley appearances for semi-finals against Everton in 2009 and Manchester City two years later both ended in disappointment. It means they have not won the competition since defeating Championship outfit Millwall in 2004, which came as a surprise to Smalling. "I was quite shocked at how long it has been since United won the FA Cup," said Smalling. Sir Alex Ferguson has urged his Manchester United players to step on the gas in their quest for the treble.

Looking to one-up Virgin America and the Linux-based RED in-flight entertainment systems, United said yesterday it's rolling out iPod -connected video and audio systems into the seat backs of its airplanes.
Using a standard dock connector, passengers will be able to watch their iPod's content on a 15-inch screen right in front of their eyes. The iPods will charge at the same time, something many travelers have wanted for awhile.
The question isn't the technology, it's the content. Do you know what kinds of things people keep on their iPods? I'm not sure I want the guy next to me to be able to watch anything he wants on a screen that big right in front of me. Or that he'd want to see what I've got.
Recently on a flight from DC to San Francisco I finally got around to watching Bad Santa on my iPod Touch. That movie works on the small screen of the iPod, but I'd be nervous about a more visible showing. When do you think the first drunk guy will be kicked off a plane for showing his porn?

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Clubs and venues usually see a decrease in attendance during the summer as vacations and festivals vie for us wage slaves' precious greenbacks. Do not visit your family. Don't go to Lollapalooza in Chicago. Stick around, save your cash, and blow it on something worth seeing, like the following local musicians.
A No. 1 Billboard 200 chart debut this month and 182,000 units sold can't be wrong East Bay gothcore band AFI knows how to entertain. This fifteen-year-old quartet headed by Oakland resident Davey Havok plays every show like it's the last, winning AFI a rabid fan base called the Despair Faction. Mosh pits, crowd surfing, stage diving, fights the band runs a tight, high-energy show that moves from radio station hits to fan club favorites with a nary a half-step break. Properly costumed in tattoos, black hair, "guyshadow" (male eyeshadow), and whatnot, the four bandmembers roam the world this summer to support their second DreamWorks album, Decemberunderground. Major stops on the Vans Warped Tour and a quick outing to Japan mean you're bound to catch them somewhere. AFireInside.net
A dude rapping in front of a turntable can get old by song two. Yet this Oakland-based hip-hop duo regularly pulls whistling, standing ovations and encores after they've busted their asses for hours. How? Well, one dude is named Gift of Gab, and he has it. He rhymes on the positive tip about drug addiction and taking care of your family instead of the usual murder, murder/kill, kill, kill. And DJ/producer Chief Xcel lays down crisp simple beats when he's not cutting the whole thing up with some of the flashiest, complicated handiwork in the Bay Area (he's DJ Shadow's homey). Going on year fifteen in the biz, and touring this year to promote 2005 release The Craft, Blackalicious is one of the most reliably entertaining shows in hip-hop. Hopefully you'll catch Gab rap the whole alphabet from analogue arsonist aimin' at your artery to overzealous rhyme ZEA-LOTS! Pimmmp. Quannum.com
With two albums and about a hundred thousand miles spent inside their stinky tour van, West Oakland metalheads Domeshots combine the energy of a new band with the experience of jaded rockers. Fronted by short, rugby-player-looking singer Danner Alexander and aural terrorist-guitarist Jim Seichas, Domeshots creates a screeching, pounding wall of sound backed by mean leprechaun bassist Eric Tamo and enthusiastic drummer Dave Criss. What separates them from the metal hordes? Stamina. They've played more than 185 shows in a single year and will tour the West Coast throughout the summer and fall. Let's leave the final word to the band: "Quite simply, we rock your faces off, musically deficate [sic] in the void, then sew it back up with kisses. When it's all said and done, expect a call from Jail."
A bushy-black-haired young dude belts out: Do you think about me in your quiet times?/Cast out soft-core demons when I come back home as piano notes cascade, drums pound, and guitar chords wail. The hipsters at Bottom of the Hill are confused. "Isn't Anticon a rap label?" they say. Well, meet Why?, fronted by former Jew for Jesus and Oaklander Yoni Wolf, who doesn't consider boundaries as he assembles snippets of inside jokes from a shattered relationship into spoken, sung, and rapped lines over minimal drums and the aforementioned piano and guitar. Rock? Too unplugged. Indie? Too hard. Rap? No DJs. SF Weekly called it rap-rock. Ouch. Maybe we'll just call it good. Why? will tour Europe this summer while most of us are touring YouTube. Be sure to catch 'em when they return in late July.
Cookie Mongoloid
Where to start? The terrible and powerful perversion of such an innocent childhood figure? The flamethrowers, motorcycles, and cookie guns? The leather miniskirted cookie girls pelting the audience? Or the wireless mic, which lets the leather-clad Mongoloid join you in the pit for a rousing, beer-soaked freakout? God bless this band. Founded in 2002 by local Devo cover band Mongoloid, these five creatures (plus the cookie girls) play Sesame Speed Metal. Some of their best songs: "Wash Yourself," "One of These Things Is Not Like the Other," and "C Is for Cookie." Now, plenty of people will want to talk about artistic integrity and seriousness and yada yada. They're douches. Drink nine warm Pabst Blue Ribbons, crush all the cans on your forehead, and possibly have the most fun you still can legally have in this country. WeAreMongoloid.com
"What's that slimy white thing he's penetrating with a vacuum attachment? What in God's name is going on here?" The answer is Matmos, a freaky fusion of art-school sound stunts, and balls. Namely the balls of Mission District residents MC Schmidt and Drew Daniels. Schmidt is a "Sound as Art" college instructor, while Daniels just finished a Ph.D in literature, which gives the duo's antics academic grounding and justification. Just ask Björk, who brings them along on tour, or the Whitney Museum of Art in New York, where their work is shown ... er, heard. Schmidt says the best way to listen to their new CD The Rose Has Teeth in the Mouth of a Beast is to lie on the floor in a dark room with headphones on. In lieu of such sonic sequestering, take in their first ever North American tour, which returns here in October, and be prepared to be confused, delighted, and a bit scared every now and then. "Is he really playing a cow uterus?" Yes. Yes, he is. Brainwashed.com/Matmos

2NE1's Sandara transforms into a mannequin
On January 26th, the bubbly 2NE1 member posted on her Twitter, "What a cute mannequin", and uploaded a couple of photos of herself.
She added, "This was taken at a Chrome Hearts factory in LA last November." In the photos, Sandara Park looks lifeless like a mannequin, looking at somewhere with a solid pose.
Upon seeing the photos, netizens commented, "She's so cute", "She really looks like a mannequin", "I guess she's enjoying it" and "The prettiest mannequin ever."
In related news, 2NE1 and Big Bang decided to join Goodway With US's Nepal Hope School Project which helps build schools for children in Nepal who are neglected. The signed CDs and t-shirts that the groups have provided were randomly given out to people who donated for the fund to build school in Nepal.

My favorite Japanese album of 2011 sounds even better live. "Magnetic Soil," the eighth album from self-described death-jazz act Soil & "Pimp" Sessions, further proved that this Tokyo-based sextet belongs in a class all its own.
However, it was the way the band performed their new material live that really set them apart from other acts this year. With record companies paranoid over falling profits, music performance has become increasingly formulaic: Open with hit. Climb on speaker for guitar solo. Thank crowd. Two-song encore. Edit. Sell recording of the whole thing.
Soil's show at Shibuya AX in Tokyo on Nov. 6 reaffirmed for me how important concerts are for a music act. The way the group connected with the audience during the performance was electrifying. There was a kind of mutual awareness in the room, apparent when saxophonist Motoharu struggled to get a solo going. When he finally found his way, celebration erupted across the room. Then there was the six-minute-long "Freedom Time," stretched to over twice its original length, that had almost the entire audience taking part in the longest chorus singalong I've ever witnessed. Frontman Shacho even got the crowd to repeatedly shout out "We love music!" without the slightest hint of irony. It was just one of many moments where Soil showed they weren't afraid of appearing vulnerable. That's what live music should be.
What I'm looking forward to in 2012: Red Bull Academy graduate Yosi Horikawa's upcoming album.

- ask someone for directions (who may not know)
- interrupt hospital staff - (this happens over and over)
- refer to signage that may not show or point to where you specifically need to-go
- walk around and search for a map display or directory, that may not exist
- find the information counter, ask for directions, and forget the instructions half-way to your destination
- use the HospitalMap system to guide you to and locate your destination - fast and easy!
Answer: number 6, a HospitalMap system provides the best way to find your way around your hospital
Our team of experienced artists design custom Campus Map and Floor Plan illustrations that strike a balance between function and a great look. We work together with our hospital clients to customize the design of their maps and floor plans so that only designated public access areas and locations (POIs) are displayed,
Already have your own Hospital Map and/or Hospital Floor Plan Illustrations? Great! We can convert your existing maps and-or floor plans and make them interactive with the HospitalMap system too.
Your Hospital and your website are unique - so is each HospitalMap System. We go beyond just adding a logo to the user interface, we take the same approach to branding, styling and colors that are used for the map and floor plan illustrations and apply them to the User Interface elements so that each client's system user interface & maps stand out and work as intended
If you have a HospitalMap system available on your hospital's website then depending on the size of your hospital you can expect between 1,500 to 4,000+ unique user sessions per month.
If you do not have a HospitalMap system available on your hospital's website then these 1,500 to 4,000+ Patients & Visitors per month will have to find their way another way
No other online interactive solution comes close to providing a return like a HospitalMap system does for an affordable monthly fee.
- Improves Patient Engagement
- Increases Customer Satisfaction
- Reduces staff interruptions
- Lowers the frequency of missed appointments
New ! ADA Compliant Wayfinding Solution for your Hospital's Website
We now offer an ADA WCAG 2.0 AA and sec 508 compliant wayfinding add-on version providing the visually impaired assitance to find their way to their destination at the hospital.
Compare Methodist San Antonio Hospital's HospitalMap system and their ADA version.

The world needs another energy drink like it needs a longer presidential election campaign. But hold on. Sisters Switchel is different.
A switchel, I learned, is an ancient beverage made with vinegar, water and a sweetener. The story goes that switchel was created by ancient (rhyming?) mariners who added vinegar as a kind of antiseptic to make water potable. The sweetener and sometimes ginger came in to make it drinkable. Sailors passed their beverage on to landlubbers in colonial America, particularly farmers who developed a taste for the beverage during harvest, where it became known as haymaker's punch.
Anyway, North Bay cycling friends Brenda Lyons and Melanie Larson developed an interest in switchel. Lyons was a professional mountain bike racer and is now a yoga instructor, while Larson is a dietician for Kaiser. The two friends wanted to start a business together. Lyons heard about a Vermont company called Up Mountain, switchel made with apple cider, ginger and maple syrup. Turns out the combination of ingredients in switchel is a great pre- and post-exercise beverage that isn't laced with the sugar, dye and other nasty stuff that taints many popular energy drinks.
The duo started experimenting with their own recipe and found they liked the taste of honey over maple syrup. Thus was Sisters Switchel born. It's a decidedly local beverage: it's bottled in Petaluma; the glass comes from a Windsor company; the apple cider comes from Manzana in Graton; and the honey comes from Gipson's Golden in Santa Rosa. The ginger comes from somewhere far away where they grow ginger.
Each of the three ingredients is healthful on its own, but combined they're even better, says Lyons. She says it's naturally energizing. "You don't have to be an athlete to get the benefits and digestive support," she says.
It's good stuff—sweet but not overly so. I like it as a thirst quencher after exercise. Larson and Lyons have been at work on the product for 18 months, and the beverage is just reaching market now. Currently, Sisters Swichel is available at Willibees Wine & Spirits in Santa Rosa and Petaluma and Petaluma Market where it goes for $3.99 a bottle.

One of the big advantages to this sort of interactive question-and-response capability is that what users see during a presentation can be tailored to their responses to questions as they go along. Not only does that make this sort of tool great for training, but I could imagine it being terrific for customer support — and possibly even for marketing, because it offers an effective means for qualifying customers based on their responses."

Loews Hotels & Resorts Buys Intercontinental Chicago O'Hare Hotel
- By
- Jul 01, 2014
Making another move in the Midwest, Loews Hotels & Resorts signed a deal to acquire the InterContinental Chicago O'Hare Hotel, a 556-room hotel in Rosemont, Ill., just outside of Chicago.
Developed in 2008 by Harp Group Inc. at a cost of approximately $180 million, the Intercontinental Chicago fell victim to the credit crunch and ultimately, ended up in the hands of its lender just a few years later. The bank relied on commercial real estate services firm JLL to find a buyer for the property, which also features 53,000 square feet of meeting space and three restaurants. Neither the lender, nor JLL nor Loews is talking purchase price.
Loews is keen on location and the InterContinental Chicago is in the right place. Carrying the address of 5300 N. River Rd., the property sits across from the 840,000-square-foot Donald E. Stephens Convention Center and just a few miles from O'Hare Airport. And there are other sources behind the call for accommodations in the area.
"Although O'Hare International Airport acts as a primary demand driver, the recent revitalization of the Rosemont submarket has supported the area's increasing lodging demand, including the new adjacent Fashion Outlets of Chicago and the lively nightlife at MB Financial Park," as noted in a recent investor report by JLL.
News of the planned purchase of InterContinental Chicago comes just one month after Loews announced a deal to buy the 255-room Graves 601 Hotel Wyndham Grand in Minneapolis, from the Graves Hospitality Corp. Additionally, the 400-room Loews Chicago is scheduled for completion in February 15. The activity dovetails with Loews's effort to substantially grow the size of its portfolio over the next few years and it fulfills a particular goal. Simply put, as Jonathan Tisch, chairman of Loews, said in a prepared statement, "The Midwest is an area where we were looking to increase our presence."

CENTENNIAL — An Arapahoe County judge today found there was enough evidence to go to trial in the case of an illegal immigrant who shot and paralyzed a girl outside her Aurora high school in December.
Luis Guzman-Rincon, 19, will enter his plea at an arraignment scheduled for June 27.
He faces 16 charges in the shooting of Karina Vargas, a 16-year-old girl who was talking with friends across the street of Aurora Central High School on Dec. 6 when she was shot, the unintended victim of gang warfare.
Guzman-Rincon is being held in the Arapahoe County jail on $100,000 bail.
He is believed to be in the United States illegally, and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on him.
Vargas was shot once in the back and doctors say she will likely never walk again.

The man behind the hugely successful Football Manager series reckons game prices would be reduced if a cure for piracy were ever discovered.
Speaking to VideoGamer.com in an interview to be published tomorrow, Miles Jacobson, studio director at Sports Interactive, said that there won't be a "proper cure" for piracy without a "change in society".
Video game piracy was one of the hot topics in 2008. The year saw a number of developers suggest the PC game market was in poor health, and a number of high-profile PC titles come under fire from gamers for including restrictive copy protection measures.
Football Manager 2009 itself suffered complaints after players struggled to authenticate the game when it was released in November last year. According to Jacobson, there currently isn't a legitimate cracked version of the game available and, "apart from the people who bought the game on day one, 98 per cent of people since authenticated first time without any problems whatsoever".
He said: "I don't know whether there is a proper cure for piracy without a change in society, to be honest. There needs to be some kind of copy protection in your product otherwise retail aren't going to stock your product, so we do have to take some measures. We will investigate all avenues open to us once again for next year to see what the best solution is. What we believed we had this year was something that was going to be better for the consumer compared to the system where you had to keep the disc in the drive, which you don't have to do with our system, and be completely unobtrusive.
"I don't think it will ever be fixed and it is a shame because the price of games would go down if the issue was fixed and we'd be able to have more people working on the titles."
When asked about the 90 per cent piracy rate that Beautiful Game Studios has confirmed rival product Championship Manager suffers, Jacobson replied: "It sounds about right to me. To put it into perspective, there was a key code that was leaked on a Russian piracy site, as being a key code that they claimed would work with any version of the game. It doesn't work at all. It's been attempted by 338,000 unique people. So, that's just one key code. That's not including people who are playing cracked versions. So 90 per cent could actually be quite low.
"But I don't know what the figures are because we've got no way of tracking it. We don't believe there is a way to track fully exactly how many downloads we have. What we do know is there are countries out there where there are 30,000 members signed up and active on a local language forum and we sell 2,000 copies in that country to date. So, that 90 per cent level could be a low figure. I could pick a figure out of my arse but it wouldn't really do anyone any good. But piracy is incredibly bad!"
What do you think about Jacobson's comments on piracy? Do you agree that game prices would go down if it were 'fixed'? Let us know in the comments section below.

Oh, that looks VERY interesting. Does it also work on the older S2 DTiVo's? Can you provide a link?

Oh, that looks VERY interesting. Does it also work on the older S2 DTiVo's? Can you provide a link?
I've had stereo equipment blown by a power problem covered by a combo of renters insurance and local power co-op. Neither group wanted the equipment and both told me to dispose of it as I wished. I...
Check your homeowners insurance, you may be able to file a claim and purchase another TiVo HD/Premier plus lifetime to replace the damaged unit.
I would also write a certified, return receipt...
Not directly.
Pull the shows off the DTiVo's (mfs_ftp, TyTool, etc.) and convert them to mpg2. Use Pytivo to transfer them to the S4.
I have 11.0j on one of my hacked HD's, but I haven't allowed it to install yet.
Is there anything I can do to help out? I don't know much of the background stuff, but I can follow instructions.
According to TiVoJerry:
I chose to do the CCI byte hack to maintain compatibility with unmodified TiVoHD's. If I had used the NoCSO hack, I would not have been able to transfer and play the show onto a stock TiVoHD. With...
Yes, one of the hacks available is the CCI byte hack which allows you to pull any show (recorded after the hack) off the TiVoHD.
The premier has an optional HD user interface, disk space meter,...
I've done exactly that.
I use Hackman and TivoWebPlus on a almost daily basis.
Thank you for continuing your work on TiVo Hacking.
You can use the unsubscribed S1 as a security camera recorder... other than that... I got nothin'.
If you can run a Sat cable to the DTiVo then it won't nag you. I didn't bother because once you start the show it won't nag you until you go back to a menu screen.
If you are talking about Directv TiVos like the HDVR2, etc. then yes, you can do that and use MRV (v6) to transfer shows over the network. The second DTiVo will need to have a card in it, but won't...
The only thing keeping me from getting the Premier is the CCI byte issue. Since I HEAVILY use MRV/TTG, and TimeWarner Dallas sets the CCI byte on almost everything, until that can be bypassed I have...
Very cool. I have 3 TiVoHD boxes in my current stack. Could multiple BT TiVoHD adapters coexist?
According to this post: http://www.tivocommunity.com/tivo-vb/showthread.php?p=7833681#post7833681 11.0f will be rolling out to everyone by the end of the month.
According to this post:...
I use http://tivoplaylist.dyndns.org/ and http://tivodecode.sourceforge.net/ to get encrypted shows off of my TiVoHD and unencrypt them.
I use http://pytivo.sourceforge.net/ to put unencrypted...
I've been sending spam links to ronnythunder for awhile.... Seems to be the only way to get them taken care of.
I wish the owners of DDB would just point the spam report to him.
You will likely only see the CCI Byte set if you have cablecards in your TiVo.
Go to Messages & Settings > Remote, CableCARD, & Devices > Network Remote Control
Then you have to enable it (by default, the option is set to disabled)
I have several S2/S3 boxes and I DO NOT run the NoCSO patches. TTG/TivoDecode works fine for me, it isn't as fast, but it works well.
I do use the CCI patch on my S3 boxes.

I've seen it work between DTiVo's.... but it definitely took more than just opening up the ports, and it took several hours to transfer each show.
You can get the two v6.2 DTiVo's to talk over the intertubes, but you will not be able to get the SA TiVo to talk to the DTiVo.
The SA, assuming it is a Series 2, should be on v9.3.2a software by...
With the use of a service like DynDNS.org, then it is technically possible.
What version are your Series 2 DirecTiVos running?
You don't say whether or not you have replaced the PROM on your R10. Without the PROM being hacked, your serial connection and other hacks will not stick.
ETA: Nevermind... I see in some of your...
Ah, I missed the "standalone" portion of your question.
No, the DirecTV units will only work with DirecTV. They do not have the hardware on the mainboard for anything other than DirecTV signals.
The easiest method would be to buy pre-formatted drives from DVRUpgrade.com. Next easiest would be to buy DVRUpgrade.com's InstantCake software for $20 and format your own HD.
The cheapest method...
One (Standard Def) series that has been recording with the CCI set recorded last night and now doesn't have the CCI set.
I tried MRVing to an unhacked TiVoHD and it showed a progress bar, but...
I have the same setup and same symptoms. TiVoHD to TiVoHD
Thanks, yes it did. :)
I now have TWP (with the v11 patch) running on a TiVoHD.
That broke unhacked S3 to hacked S3 MRV.
It also broke hacked S3 to unhacked S3 MRV.
S2 to S3 MRV seems to work fine.
S3 to S2 MRV seems to work fine.
I'm apparently too dense to find the CVS store.... I looked at the stuff on SourceForge, but most of it was two years old.
Could you please point me to the right location?
I had a buddy help, he found the tvStandard value and patched it to 11.
It now at least loads. The info page gives the following error:
Hmmm... I'm not having much luck with this. I've tried the patch listed on the current version (v2.1.b3 2.1.b3 (oztivo-081122)) and the previous version (v2.1.b3 2.1.b3 (oztivo-081018)) with no luck....
Works like a champ on my TiVoHD v11.
I ran into a slight issue. I created a patch set for v11, but created the data in uppercase. When running tvapppatch.tcl, I got the following error:
bash-2.02# tvapppatch.tcl
Sorry, I don't know anything about YUV formats.
The images on the DVD are compressed MPG2 format. Converting them from VOB to MPG doesn't change the compression at all.
Have you tried using TTG on the show on the new TiVo, AFTER you have moved it using MRV?
I just did a forum search for the word "parental" and the solution showed up.
There might be some good info here:
The PROM mod is required for any hack to S3 beyond replacing the hard drive.
tytools does not care about the inhibit flag.
S3's don't really need to be hacked to pull shows off of them. You can get to the Now Playing List by browsing to https://mytivoaddress and log in with "tivo" as the username and your Media Access...
Apparently I had a bad download. I re-downloaded the package and it worked fine.
I'm getting an error opening file using your update module to go from v6.0.15 to v7.0.0. I'm on TWP Version 2.0.0 (oztivo-071214) on a DTiVo v6.2-01-2-101.
How did the download speed using your app compare to using the TiVo approved .tivo download method?
Very cool, I look forward to installing and testing this on my TiVoHD v9.2a soon.
What patches are required to mfs_ftp before your diff is applied? I quit using mfs_ftp on S2-DTiVo boxes when...
I would love to have a copy of it. Can you email it to me at pytivo at my username dot com please?
sweet, I did not know that.
I went back and modified my batch file, that speeded things up considerably. See my previous post for the changes I made.
Ideally, you want a steady temp inside the box. Fluctuating temps cause all kinds of nasty stress on the chips and connections.

theUltimates.com is a handy tool.
you might get it repaired/replaced at www.servicedvr.com for $79. Since they are an AUTHORIZED Philips repair place, TiVo will transfer the lifetime for you.
If I'm not mistaken, the "SuperPatch" turns off encryption on v4 and there are other patches for the S1 DTiVo's that do the same.
Riley, you are SUCH a tease! :D
If anybody released an integrated HMO/eDonkey server, they would be asking for trouble.... But if the specs for the MRV stuff were released, I bet that someone...
You will need to upgrade the USB drivers on your S2 TiVos to the v2 drivers before you will see the faster speeds.
The problem is that v4 TiVo software loads v1.1 USB drivers. I...
So now that TiVo is giving away HMO, I wonder if anyone will reverse engineer the MRV protocols and release a PC, or even better a S1 TiVo version of a MRV server....
AFAIK, Ultimate TV hasn't been sold for a couple of years... It still works.
Well, I do have this 4" b&w portable..... :p
Do you need a 2nd HDVR2 to test with?
stop tivoapp and use netcat
You will get more help over at www.tivocommunity.com on stuff like this.
Many of the developers on this board have been burned by people who take their software and hacks and sell them on ebay......
If you do that, do not let the tivo dial into the TiVo Servers.... It does Bad Things.
Check your private messages.
No, the HDVR2 doesn't have any MPEG encoders to compress the video. It will only work with satellite.
Check your private messages. :D
Yes, you can use a backup of another TiVo of the same model. You will need to do a "Clear and Delete Everything" after installing the image.
You have a lot of searching and reading to do.
The first thing you want to search for is BlessTiVo. This is the tool that lets you add a second drive to your TiVo.
The second thing you want to...
This should be in the newbies section.
Yes, you need multiple subscriptions for multiple TiVo's. Standalone boxes are $13/mo each. DirecTV TiVo's are $5/mo extra on your DTV account.
So, are you getting near a stage for a beta test? ;)
PM me if you want a v4 image that works with the peanut remote.
I'm interested as well. I have several DTiVo's S1/S2 and a couple of SA S1's that I can play with.

Bad Idea. When the 112 dials in, if it has other software on it, TiVo will pitch a fit. Use a HDRx12 image on it. PM me if you need a v3 image.
No relationship other than as a customer.
He is a surly pain the ass, but he has always shipped quickly.
I'm done.... Some people will try to justify anything...
You are correct about one thing... The guy who runs minidishes.tv is a jackass. But at least he is honest.
if you leave the macaddr variable off, then the TurboNet will pickup the last 6 characters of the the serial number of the TiVo as the last 6 of the MAC Address.
The way that I read this is that the ad on ebay said that the system included an HU card. I doubt that sniet actually asked minidishes.tv if the system came with an HU card. If he did ask, then...
If you want HMO, the ONLY option at this time is to get Stand Alone Series II TiVo's... The Series II DirecTV boxes do not support HMO at this time, and likely never will.
If you want to extract...

I have it working under v3.1.0 (not U5) with a hacked prom and replaced initrd.
I installed TiVoWeb using the instructions from the zip below then replaced the binaries and added a startup line in...
I thought that might be the case for the initrd, thanks for clearing it up.

IBM T42 gives Fan Error message and stops
\015 My IBM notebook T42 gives FAN ERROR message and switches off. It is an intermittent problem and many times I am unable to get it started. \015\012\015\012Once I was able to get it working, since then I have not switched it off. I just close the LCD panel and put it in hibernation mode. I can also reboot in this mode during automatic updates.\015\012\015\012 This seems to be BIOS problem connected with some hardware. The Lenovo service center failed to identify the problem. Are the schematic circuit diagrams available to trace this problem?\015\012\015\012I also want to know if I can use larger hard disk than 80 GB that came with the machine. If so what is the maximum limit. Is BIOS upgradation needed for this and how do I do it.\015
Answers :
The fan may be faulty or clogged with dust.
\015\012Check the fan to see f it spins freely and remove dust from the heatsink fins and fan assembly.
\015\012The specification in the manual for the T40 series shows the largest hard drive is 80 Gb.
\015\012It may be possible to install a larger hard drive, but check with Lenevo first.

Since the government's new air quality plans have been released, road safety campaigners stress new changes will have a dangerous effect on road safety for pedestrians and everyday road users.
After a long wait, the government have now finalised their pollution prevention plans in a bid to improve the condition of air quality in the UK. However, some road safety campaigners worry planned changes could potentially leave drivers and pedestrians at high risk with regards to road accidents and injuries.
Road humps are useful traffic calming measures that force drivers to reduce speed and, consequently, reduce the chance of road traffic accidents. In fact, speed bumps play a huge part in controlling traffic and reducing speed in areas where road users are most vulnerable, i.e. protecting young children who cross roads to and from school. However, there has been much speculation surrounding speed humps with regards to their effect on air quality; the action of slowing down a vehicle to speed back up again emits more toxic, air polluting fumes than smooth, long distance driving.
Road humps were initially set to be replaced with road cushions, but now the government has decided to remove them completely from UK roads and will provide funding to local councils to implement this change. Road safety campaigners are arguing that, although air pollution is an important issue, removing speed bumps will pose a dangerous threat to the standard of road safety in the UK, especially for children.
Road safety spokesperson, Rachel Maycock, said: "This idea is completely daft and irresponsible.
"Of course we all worry about the air our children breathe – but we also worry about reckless drivers going far too fast."
Road safety campaigners do not dismiss the importance of taking action to solve air pollution problems across the UK. Nevertheless, they want to stress the impact removing traffic calming measures will have on safety for road users. They argue that if this measure continues to go ahead, speed cameras or other road warnings should come into effect to ensure motorists drive safely.
Dr Adrian Davis, who is the Professor of Health and Transport at the University of the West of England, agrees that removing speed bumps will be an extremely dangerous move. Mr Davis said: "The fact is, numerous studies had shown that unless drivers are forced to slow down by physical obstacles like road humps they will continue to drive too fast in residential areas.
"Scrapping humps without replacing them with some other form of physical measures would be both ridiculous and dangerous."

Carl Crawford was officially introduced to the media today and had some interesting comments…
On choosing the Red Sox over the Angels: "…at the end of the day, I felt that my situation would definitely be better here in Boston. Angels are a pretty nice organization, too, but at the end of the day, I think that my heart is in Boston."
On batting leadoff, something he never wanted to do with the Rays: "I really don't mind hitting anywhere in the lineup. That statement came when I was a little younger in my career, so it kind of stayed with me that I didn't like hitting leadoff. I definitely don't have a problem with hitting anywhere."
On playing in front of bigger crowds: "I'm definitely ready for that. That's one thing that attracted me here. You know it's going to be sold out, you know there's going to be excitement, you know there's going to be a lot of screaming and hollering. That was definitely one of the things that attracted me here."

One of my favorite Christmas songs. Oh who am I kidding. I love Christmas and the music with it. I could list about 30 of my "favorite" Christmas songs.
Although this isn't the Christmas version of this song, they are very similar except for a few words. Have a listen.
