...that deal with pure data
You are not logged in.
ok, decided to upload the newest version chop_suey 3.2. this is probably the most "polished" version. changes since version 2:
- enhanced slice detection, more cpu wise and with automatic analysis settings when loading a new loop.
- markers can now be edited via sliders: visual delete, move and insert sliders.
- shortcuts: playback single slices through shifting through the loop with "shift + arrow keys". delete selceted marker with "shift + d", insert marker at insert position with "shift + i", play selected slice with "shift + p"
- dump slices as wav files: with the "dump" button you can save all slices as single wav files to disk (only the pure slices, changes in the sequencer or any other settings will not affect the files)
- smooth slices / amp envelope: set attack and decay up to 50 % of the slice length.
please leave a comment if you have any suggestions.
have fun!
That's really a great fun to play with it, everything is clean and neat.
Thanks again for sharing.
Few (two) general, high-level, usability comments:
After some playing, what I miss is a "randomization on the slice number":
after you get the whole number of slices from the analysis step, a button or similar
that sets randomly the slice number below the trigger toggles.
Another possible idea could be a save/restore function of the sensible interface
parameters (trigger, slice, reverse, retrig, speed, etc.) in order to recall previous
interface editings (independently of the loaded waveform..).
My two euro cents... ;-)
I love it!
It keeps getting better and better.
Thanks a lot toxonic.

this all is quite extendable.........
i kicked out some bugs and the marker editor. instead you can now shift the slices with a position slider, delete them with a shortcut or insert new slices with a slider and a shortcut. you can also now shift through the slices via the file keys. and i implemented a feature to dump all slices as single files to disk. it's getting almost "recycle"-like.... ;)
maybe i'll upload it....

yeah please upload it
look at the attached patch, 3 posts ago! ;)
yeah i didnt see it at first:)
wow, that patch is PRO!!
i had already downloaded the first version, but couldn't fgure out at first.
i still need more time to play and check out the full potential, but so far i can say:
that's definetly inspiring stuff, thanks for sharing!!

Hey I loved the chop suey patch! :) great!
I have a very similar project that started based in a patch that i found in this forum[1]
checkout the nvl project: http://navalha.devolts.org/en
and let's merge ;)
[1] http://puredata.hurleur.com/sujet-1953- … ble-slices
I'm quite at awe - the patch is VERY good, I tried a few non-rhythmic samples with it and the possibilities are amazing. It seems to be very stable, I hit rapidly here and there and the patch just rocks on.
Congrats! Also, it is very nice of you that you don't shift the objects around in a way that one can't understand how the patch works. Inspiring to do good work..
thank you all very much!
@ glerm: i had a short look to your patch, although i didn't dig deep into it, it looks quite amazing. when i have a little more time i'll work on it. feel free to tinker around with both patches too.
@ ultrasonic: to be sincere, i was also surprised about that i found no trouble with working out that patch. seems that i had a lucid moment there.
and yes, i have a little "neurotic" building style, and i also like it, when patches are clean and tidy and don't look like a spider on lsd. ;)
Awesome patch toxonic! Been playing around with it all morning.
bit new to all this, really glad people are uploading interesting stuff... thanks for the hard work toxonic
thank you guys, hope you'll like it!
Very cool !!!
I'm at work right now but I can't wait to try it out this evening!
Will give comments if I have some :-)
Hi toxinic!
First off, congrats for this patch, it makes pretty amazing sounds.
BUT, you said you wanted some feedback, so here's some.
I m having problems with the GUI. Everything seems to be working fine, in terms of controling the patch and affecting the sound, BUT i can't see any changes in the value of most controls. In fact, only bangs and toggles seem to work on the GUI level. All the sliders and number2's do not move at all. this is quite annoying, especially for someone who is trying to learn how to use this patch (like me for instance!).
Although my laptop isn't too young now, it's not that weak (i have 1GB in ram and a core 2 duo processor), and i run Pd in windows.
Has anybody experienced the same problem?
And, does anybody know how we could solve this GUI problem? this could be interesting for future patches with a complex interface.
hi pamelapopo.
i'm sorry, but i'm afraid i cant help you at all.
i use a much older machine (fujitsu siemens amilo pro, 512 mb ram, 1,7 ghz pentium-m prozessor, windows xp) and it's all working fine here. all gui elements do what they should here. did you try to load an other sampel loop into chop suey? if this does not work, i assume, it's got something to do with your machines setup, since you are the first, who reports that kind of bug. hope you will figure it out!
Hey pamelapopo,
Does this happen in other patches? I've heard people have problems with sliders suddenly crapping out on them, but I get the impression it's rare and unpredictable. I've never had the problem myself. I don't know if it's been fixed yet, but it seems to be a bug with Pd.
Thank you both for your replies.
I haven't tried loading a different sample, but i ll let you know i soon as i do.
And yes, this has happened to me a few times before, but very rarely. One thing i have noticed that could be a reason to it is that Pd doesn't seem to enjoy having too many GUI controls moving at the same time. Especially when you have a visual bang somewhere that blinks very rapidly, that sucks up a lot of the "GUI power" and may result in other controls being either very sluggish or even staying completely still.
What is surprizing in toxonic's patch is that there seems to be only one bang that 's active on it's own (the one for the beat). That shouldn't normally be too much for Pd to handle.
I wonder if maybe the slider being used for the position is causing the problem. Try going into the waveform display part of the patch (right click->open on the main GUI, right click->open on the waveform) and disconnect the patch cord connected to the slider. Or if you still want to see it, make the argument for [unsig~] larger.

... also drew attention to the depth of downloadable .wav (or other audio format) files.

Hey toxonic,
i have a suggestion to make: It would be really cool to make each step (a slice with effets, one of the sixteen things you know what i mean) assignable to a midi note. So you are not limited to a prearragend pattern but you could improvise. Should beo that much work.
indeed, that sounds interesting... i'll give it a chance when i have a little time. i will upload it here. thaks.
Hi toxonic,
very good work. I like it.
Maybe it would be good to show the absolute number of slices or limit the number in the first row(slice). It is sometime a little difficult to get the number of actually slicers.
this patch is awesome !!!

What It Is
The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series is all about the awkwardness of middle school years as told through young Greg Heffley. He's a typical middle child who gets pushed around by his older brother and is often cast aside due to the needs of a baby brother. Greg's not one of the cool kids, but he would love to be. In this seventh installment, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel, Greg finds himself scrambling to find a date for the school Valentine's Dance. After some feeble attempts to secure a date with no luck, he comes up with one of his crazy schemes and ends up on a 3-way date with a girl and his best friend Rowley. Lot's of laugh-out-loud events transpire that give new meaning to the term "third wheel."
Why It's Fun
When I first heard about Diary of a Wimpy Kid, I cringed at the name "wimpy" and was reluctant to even consider it. But then, I read the first book because my daughter really wanted to and I couldn't put it down. Though I still wouldn't want my kids using "wimpy" as a household word, the language in the text is clean and all of Mr. Kinney's books are laugh-out-loud funny.
Who It's For
My rule of thumb is usually to recommend chapter books to the age group of the book's subject, but in this case, I think eight years is a perfect entry point. Wimpy Kid books are funny, easy to read, and the middle school "issues" are very light.
What To Be Aware Of
The Third Wheel is available in hardcover and e-book, and I expect the paperback version isn't too far behind.

4821 Trousdale Dr, Nashville, TN | Directions 3722036.076102 -86.759458
Wonderful customer service! – I wanted to send a very special floral gift to a very special relative, and since I live nearly 2,000 miles away, I did an internet search for the best florist in Nashville. Several businesses showed up but one impressed me the most...Rebel Hill Florist. They were named in a Best of Nashville survey and one or more of their designers had recently been honored for their work. I used their toll free number...how easy and convenient not to mention gracious of them to have one...and I spoke to one of the nicest sales associates ever! She listened to my request offering suggestions and even explained the different price categories using furniture sizing...a small arrangement would fit on a night stand, a medium size on a coffee table and so on. I told her that I wanted something colorful and unique and long lasting and left the design and selection to the experts. I received a call from my relative on the designated delivery day and was told that the arrangement was not only exquisite but it was huge! I also received a delivery confirmation via e-mail just as promised. I can't tell you how happy this experience made me! I visited the stores' website and they have actual photos of inside their shop. It is exactly the type of business I would frequent if I lived in Nashville. In this day and age of impersonal internet shopping, the wonderful staff at Rebel Hill made quite an impression on me and my relative too...this was her first experience with this shop too...but she told me it will not be her last since she will now use it for her gift and personal needs. I can't say enough nice things about this florist and I too will use them exclusively for future purchases. I saw that they have lots more than just plants and flowers for sale...I am really impressed with everything about this florist and I highly recommend them to all...this was southern hospitality and then some. Thanks Rebel Hill...you have a fan in Arizona!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Great service! – I met with them about my wedding and reception. They offer a free bridal consulation and were a pleasure to meet with! They came in at very fair prices and well within my overall budget. They looked at my ideas and pictures and really listened. They offered great, creative ideas and very much understood what I was looking for and never tried to upsell us. I will continue to use them as my florist long after my wedding!
User review by mloos – These people are awesome!!! They will, without a doubt, take care of you. Thank you very much Rebel Hill Florist!!!

It has a very dark industrial feel to it that i like. the lines some how remind me of lord of the rings armour a bit.
@Sylux and Ged Thanks for the opinions. Seems like the middle right will be the one I develop further.
The arms may not be perfect as it was just a quick painting to help me put down some ideas.
Here's a WIP of a mecha caracal. It's my first real attempt at doing mecha type stuff. It's a lot tougher than doing purely organic stuff. I find myself trying to visualize if what I'm drawing could actually function (or at least has the impression of being able to function), which is a real challenge.
Here's the initial sketch that I did from reference of a caracal.
It has a very dark industrial feel to it that i like. the lines some how remind me of lord of the rings armour a bit.
@Psy Yeah, I was going for some more heavy industrial with pistons and such while trying to keep it a more futuristic looking. Definitely some Geiger influence in the piece as well.
I may go back through and fix some things, I like how it's started to look as I worked more. For a while in the beginning I was just grasping for ideas but I think I have a decent design starting to come out.
The lighting is a bit too evenly distributed, and its wrapping around the edges of the line a little too much, making the object look flat. Especially around the arms, and hands. I would be a lot better if you have one dedicated light source coming from one direction.
Like the objects behind her legs are fantastic, it look so 3D, however her upper torso not so much. Speaking of upper torso, It seems her head to chest is in one perspective, where else her other half is in another. Try to make that transition from her upper torso to the lower torso, more noticeable. And her arms are coming out in the wrong perspective aswell. It should be pointing outwards towards the viewer.
Aside from that, great design! C:
The issue here is that you used a very deep black to create the drop shadow underneath the mech, but you don't use that value anywhere else in the picture. So it makes the mech look like a cardboard cutout because the value range used in the mech is smaller than the value ranged used in the overall picture. Take the black from the drop shadow and apply it to places where there is a lot of shadow on the mech, and it should look better.
@DHB Thanks for taking the time to C&C. I agree that the upper torso is lacking in many respects. There are a few things I like about it, but it definitely needs to be redone. I probably should have chosen more standard concept design poses before moving onto other poses. Originally this was going to be the pose I used for a larger composition which had the mecha sitting on a rock ledge overlooking a battle but that obviously doesn't translate well without the surroundings (and the drop shadow I put in).
@Cype I'll keep that in mind when I go back over it. The drop shadow was a last minute addition because I thought it looked rather odd just laying there in space with nothing to tie it to the ground. Thanks for the input!
@Ged Thanks for commenting. What do you mean by "a lot more detailed front legs"? I'm probably going to completely redo the upper torso/front legs anyhow to make them more in line with how the back legs look.
Sorry no art update today. I've been completely distracted playing Diablo 3 for the past week... I don't know when I'll surface from that, but maybe I'll take a break at some point to get some painting in. :X
My sister asked me a make her some banners for the kids that she teaches. So here's what I've sent off to her. I'm pretty pleased overall with them, although I think the tiger and komodo dragon ones are my favorites by far.

I like the tiger
Cyborg caracal looks stunning and the Z in the komodo dragon banner is reminding me of Legend of Zelda :P sorry that i'm unable to contribute more in the way of a critique :/

Action Alert: End Immigrant Detention Quotas!
The President's federal budget proposal includes funding for an immigrant detention "bed quota." The quota requires Immigrations and Customs Enforcement to have at least 30,539 immigrants in detention at any given time, denying immigrants their liberty while lining the pockets of private prisons to meet a quota that is immoral. This policy is unprecedented – no other law enforcement agency operates on a quota system.

Comprehensive Immigration Reform
♦ 40-Day Plus Campaign of Prayer, Fasting
& Action for Congress until the Vote will begin on August 15th
During the last couple of weeks, immigration reform has returned to the table as a key issue of discussion, especially as President Obama expressed his desire to have it passed. With support growing from Republican leaders in the House for H.R. 15 we need to remind our Representatives that immigration reform isn't a partisan issue but a moral one that affects our communities. As we enter into these crucial months we ask that, as a community, we continue to pray, fast and act until the vote in the House.
In the coming weeks there will be numerous actions at the Chicago and National level. On November 13, the feast day of St. Frances Cabrini, the patron saint of immigrants, there will be a national call in day organized by the USCCB Justice for Immigrants. On December 12, for the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe, pilgrims in the Chicago area will come together to honor her and pray for CIR. And on December 20, we will have the traditional Posada in the Loop.

Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) —
Pilot Sessions & Resources
August 15, 2012 marked the first day to apply for deferred action through the process which the United States Citizenship Information Services (USCIS) refers to as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). August 15 was not the only day or the last day to apply.
The Office for Immigrant Affairs and Immigration Education, in collaboration with Catholic Charities and the Catholic Legal Immigration Network Inc. (CLINIC), is currently in planning and preparation to assist potential DACA applicants with the application process. In September, we will be conducting a couple pilot sessions, and after this experience we may expand services to designated parishes in the Archdiocese of Chicago. Stay tuned to this webpage for updates, or for more info contact Marilu Gonzalez (312-534-8103) or William Becerra (312-534-8111).
Meanwhile, we encourage potential DACA applicants to visit the following websites (all are bilingual and offer free resources):
Light a Candle for the DREAM Act
The DREAM Act represents a compassionate immigration solution that respects the dignity of young immigrants living in our communities and attending U.S. high schools.
You can support these young immigrants by sending an electronic postcard to your Senators and Representative and by lighting a candle for the DREAM Act.

I would like to welcome you to our new Office for Immigrant Affairs and Immigration
Education which was built as a result of our archdiocese's respond to the
call of the U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops'Justice for Immigrants –
Catholic Campaign for Immigration Reform launched in June 2005. Our office
combines the efforts of the Catholic Campaign for Immigration Reform and
the Pastoral Migratoria. Together we will continue to work as God's
disciples in collaboration with civil, government and other religious groups by
supporting the life and dignity of each member of God's family, especially
the immigrant. Our focus is to work in three steps:
God's family is neither complete nor authentic until all human persons are
living in safety, in dignity, and in community. Let us be that welcoming and
empowering community, enlightened by understanding and compassion, working to bring
about justice for all…on earth as it is in heaven.
May our God of justice, compassion and peace bless you in your interest in our ministry.

Very Easy Interview
I applied in-person and the process took a day - interviewed at OfficeMax in July 2009.
Interview Details – All I did was show up looking like a corporate head (suit laptop bag and laptop) and scared the crap out of the Manager and had her freaking out to store associates who thought I was there for a surprise store visit. Then she found out I was there for an interview so she relaxed a bit and asked me what school I went to, what I studied, where I was originally from because she heard an accent, said I would be a great addition then said I was overqualified and recommended me for the supervisor position at a new store opening up. (got strung along by that other manager for a month before the one I interviewed with hired me on as part time.
Interview Question – Pretty easy seeing as though I threw her off guard walking in as if I was corporate. Answer Question
Negotiation Details – Told her what I previously got paid at my previous place of employment and she offered me a $1.50 more ($9.50/hr) then got told she started my other associates at $10.25/hr.

Very Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at OfficeMax in August 2012.
Interview Details – Walked in the store, and they had me sit in the furniture section of the store. I sat down at a chair and desk and waited for the manager to come interview me. He walked in and said my name and shook my hand. He pulled up a seat and got started. (He seemed very friendly and was not intimidating at all when we started.) He began off with telling me "okay we're just going to ask you a few questions and take some notes, and do not worry, we are not judging you!" as he said with a smile. Which made me feel comfortable. He also had a copy of my resume in front of him, and he asked me questions regarding that(really easy questions, like school schedule and previous work experience). He asked me the questions, asked me how many hours I would like, and asked about my availability. He also told me he is multi-training people to work different areas of the store. It was a quick 15 minute interview and basically I was told I had the job. Oh, and he had me "sell" him something. I laughed and smiled and made it sound good, he handed me a pack of glue sticks to sell, and it was casual and he said it was good. Simple interview, nothing too hard.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details – The manager said "You will be getting paid 8.50 an hour, so once the drug test comes back okay consider yourself hired." I didn't even bring up negotiation, but it sounded like you can negotiate how many hours you want to work.

Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at OfficeMax in February 2012.
Interview Details – What is an Impress Associate? They hang out at the printer station and make copies, and print items for people. They even design logos and stuff with the customer.
I got called in to do an interview for them. I got dressed up and everything.I went there and I was escorted to the furniture center (mostly desks and computer chairs). They told me to pick a chair and I sat and waited. The interviewer came and we began. He seemed to be casual, which put me at ease with the way he talked. He seemed laid back. He said that there are 6 questions and so we began.
Most of them were hypothetical questions like, How would you greet a customer, ect. Pretty easy stuff.
general tip -
link products to other products. For example (there are multiple questions that this can be applied too), one of the questions is, how would you help a customer? Somewhere in you answer you should suggest another item, like say if they are buying a printer, offer them paper and ink.
There was one Question that threw me for a loop:
Q - What have you done to change a co-workers bad behavior and how?
A - Luckily, I had dealt with people I didn't like at my past job years ago, so I could answer it easily, but it is not like this happens everyday and I only had one example. So be ready for this one.
Another uncommon question was:
Q - Sell me a product, any product in the store (I didn't have to walk around and pick one, just off the top of my head)
A - Pick a product, say what it does, and then offer another, like the printer example.

Average Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at OfficeMax in April 2009.
Interview Details – I was called by the manager of the dept. and we scheduled an interview. I came in and was promptly greeted and sat down for a one on one. The interview was not as easy as I expected because they were wanting past examples of situations where I was part of a team. Not to say it was a difficult Q and A, just different. They really stress that atmosphere at the store. I could tell the job would be busy but casual. The manager was very friendly and I was offered a spot right away. She simply had to forward it through the store manager. I got a call the next day to go get a drug test, and a few days later i was hired. I thought the whole process was quick, effective, and positive.
Interview Question – Have you ever worked on a team? View Answer
Negotiation Details – I really didn't have much room to negotiate. I probably could have got a little more money than I did, but at the time, I was making minimum wage and was able to start out a lot higher here.

I was in Saskatoon late last week, and picked up a Ritter Sport bar with whole hazelnuts to eat on the return trip. I had not been familiar with them before, but they looked good there in the airport bookstore, so I bought one, along with a box of Parenteau's Saskatoon Berries in Belgian Chocolate, to take home to the family.
As it turned out, I didn't eat the Ritter Sports bar until today, as I didn't feel the need for a snack on the flights home, having had a bite of supper at Chicago while waiting for my flight. The chocolate is quite good.
The Saskatoon Berries were really good, as well. My wife and I enjoyed some of them Saturday with friends, and they finished them off on Sunday for dessert.

Innovations in Assistive Technologies
April 11, 2014
Innovation took center stage at the 2014 International CES® with amazing new products in the areas of wireless, apps, automotive, digital health and fitness, 3D printing, and startup tech. Some of these devices could have profound implications for mHealth, telemedicine, assistive technologies, and healthcare marketing. But not all new technologies at CES come with fanfare. Often, it's the gradual advance in technology innovation that can have a huge impact and improve consumers' lives. One such area is sound quality, thanks to the gains being made in the production and use of high resolution...

3D Printing Targets the Heart Bioengineering Professor John Fisher and Fischell Fellow Anthony Melchiorri at the University of Maryland created a 3D-printed heart implant that helps patients regrow blood vessel tissue. This graft could benefit the treatment of a number of cardiovascular problems and diseases, including congenital heart defects. The team has a patent pending on the biocompatible polymer graft and has named their new company FormaSTEM. Fisher and Melchiorri presented their research at Maryland's Professor Venture Fair, an annual competition among university inventors that lets participants present their latest...
Let's Collaborate
April 02, 2014
This year it was clear that one of the real values of the 2014 International CES is its role as an important venue for collaboration across companies and industries, and that this is a new way of doing business. Historically, collaborations at CES tend to be about bilateral company deals such as large OEMs selecting a particular chip or software program within the traditional CE ecosystem. Often, press releases by smaller companies tout their alliances with a major CE company. While that's still an important aspect, we are now seeing a shift towards inter-industry collaboration...
A Divided Nation
April 01, 2014
Growing up, I remember the events that united us, some tragic, some wonderful: The Kennedy and King assassinations, the first footsteps on the moon, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Challenger disaster and 9/11. As one, Americans either grieved or celebrated. Even our divisions, on civil rights and on the Vietnam War, were thoughtful and the minority thinking soon gathered followers to become the majority. Now few Americans would consider turning back the clock on discrimination or sending our troops back to Vietnam. Today feels different. Not since the Civil War has our nation been so divided. Maybe it...

We are on the threshold of advances set to transform businesses and the global economy. The 2014 International CES gave us a glimpse at some of the disruptive technologies that are profoundly changing our daily lives and even how we manage our health. 3D printing promises huge changes. Soon, these printers will be in homes and so simple to use that a child will be able to design and print their own toys. Our story looks at some of the innovative uses for 3D printing that you may not be aware of yet.

Madness Tech
March 26, 2014
Before the NCAA Tournament gets back underway tomorrow, let's take this opportunity to look at some of the effects technology is having on both the sports we watch and how we watch them. While (hopefully) a good number of brackets are still giving fans hope, it only took until the second day of the tournament for all entries in Warren Buffet's 'Billion Dollar Bracket' challenge to be eliminated. Mercer's first round upset of Duke eliminated all but .03 percent of the entries, according to CBSSports.com. While entrants in the challenge are probably wishing that technology could have helped them pick the perfect bracket to win the challenge, a number...
MC10's David Icke: Integrated Body Computing
March 21, 2014
Tucked away in a nondescript brick building in Cambridge, Mass. is an innovative startup hard at work. On the second level in an open loft-like space is where the magic happens as more than 50 employees and interns are busy working on transforming the way people manage their health. Leading the charge is MC10's CEO David Icke, who says the $300 billion microelectronics industry is based on rigid brittle silicon in boxy packages and therefore, has limitations for wearable technology. To counter this, MC10 reshapes electronics to create thin, conformal systems that flex, stretch and bend seamlessly. Its technology...
Staying Ahead of the Curve
March 18, 2014
The 2014 International CES could be described as a love-fest with curved displays, ranging from large screen OLED TVs—which were presented by Changhong, Hisense, Konka, LG, Panasonic, Samsung, Sony, TCL and Toshiba—to the smaller, curved OLED smartphone screens offered up by LG and Samsung. First the TVs By way of review, OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes) are constructed of a series of organic (carbon-based) thin films that convert electricity to light. Each pixel is a small light-emitting diode (hence the name) and when electrical current is applied, light is emitted. Unlike LCDs...

text: Actually you will lose by increasing the size of the pipe coming out of the heater and going to the rest of the house. The hot water in the pipes will cool when water is not flowing through them. Before you get hot water to the fixture, all of that cooled water will have to be purged (wasted) before you will have hot water. What many of us do is to use a recirculating system which will provide virtually instant hot water at any fixture. Also, 1" is far too large for a house distribution system. Depending on the number of fixtures involved, 3/4" might even be larger than necessary. There are tables that will provide optimum pipe sizes. You should investigate a recirculating system before completing construction as the better ones require a return line...that's what makes the recirculation possible. There are several very good brands available and the cost is not too bad. Many have timers on the pump so they only recirculate at the set times. I have one that does not use a timer that has been in service 24/7 for several years without a problem. If/when the pump fails, it is located where it can be easily replaced. Keep a watch on this thread, someone will likely provide the sizing information in better detail.

The world's oldest restaurant (with a signed Norris McWhirter certificate to prove it) is still coming up with the goods after nearly 300 years. For all its popularity as a tourist destination, its nooks and crannies add up to an atmospheric - if cramped - dining spot. Botín turns out great roasts, including that old Spanish favourite: cochinillo (suckling pig). The cordero (lamb) is also superb, as are the almejas (clams) Botín. And, yes, seeing as you asked, Hemingway did come here.
Area Madrid
Transport Metro Sol .
Telephone 366 30 26
Open 1-4pm, 8pm-midnight daily.
Main courses €10-€22. Set meal €34.80.
Highly over-rated. Doubt that you need a reservation other than peak times, we were there 8-930 and it was 1/3 empty. Food mediocre at best.
i have pitcher from the 1975 anniversary. Is that rare.
I found this place to be overpriced, very average staff and the food was also average, purely a tourist trap with little to recommend it.

Communicating with words—that's what I learned to do as an undergraduate English major. My professors trained me to read, speak, and write, and I'm better for it. But as any good art student knows, words are not the only means of communication. This year, junior art majors Gerard Gayle and Melissa Puma have been teaching me how to communicate with images.
Melissa and Gerard are participating in an independent study facilitated by the Leonard Lief Library (where I work) and the Art Department. They're collaborating on a web comic that we hope will be both entertaining and educational.
For Gerard and Melissa, it's a chance to simulate the experience of producing work for a client (the Library), while also benefiting from the one-on-one guidance of their creative and generous professors Michael Ferraro and Robert Wurzburg.
At our last meeting, both students brought storyboards for the comic, which Prof. Wurzburg asked them to draw on index cards. It was a smart idea because as a group we could move the cards around to try out different configurations. I was inspired by how the students' visual choices brought out new aspects of the story.
Melissa even recommended a book to help me learn more about storytelling in comics: Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics (FYI: we don't own it at the Lehman Library, so I ordered it through CLICS). It looks like a great read.
I hope you'll check out our web comic when it's ready. We're shooting for summer 2012.

Wooo, dude, i will comment on your work, when i have a lot of time :)
But will first give you advice on edge control:
Use a combination of hard brush and soft brush, lasso tool, textured smudge tool(play with the tool adjustments here). For #55 i only used hard brush with pen pressure i think. not very effective. for clouds always ask yourself-> where is the light, shadow, cast shadow, transparency and think of them as 3d-objects. hope it helps. keep it up ;)

Sticking to a Pollution Diet
Like food, nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus are good things at the right levels. But the bay and its rivers, streams and creeks are getting far too much of the stuff, choking off oxygen for fish and crabs, and blocking light needed by underwater grasses.
Koroncai and Batiuk are taking their sweatsuits and whistles throughout the massive Chesapeake Bay watershed to help the states and the District of Columbia do what it takes to shrink their pollution waistlines. But the effort needs your help. There are many ways to lighten up on the nutrients you deliver to your local waters — from driving less to skipping the spring fertilizer. Check out this list of actions you can take to help protect your favorite river or stream.
Have you taken any of these steps or others? Our EPA dieticians want to know.
And for the latest information on the effort to reduce pollution in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, sign up for our June 7 webinar and visit our website at www.epa.gov/chesapeakebaytmdl.

Great post. A suggestion
Try to link from your and other stake holder websites to your post and this will drive more 'eyeballs'. You need to get the word out. This is a sure way that Google and Yahoo web crawlers will find this post and steer more users to your site.

At least there's no oil spill there. Seriously, pollution in our rivers, streams, and oceans is a huge problem today and if we don't get a handle on it I fear the trickle down effect will be devastating to our whole society.

Fertilizer is a huge problem. Farmers used to allow fields to lie fallow to rebuild nutrients. Now it's just dump on more chemical fertilizer that will wash into the Chesapeake, one of the most beautiful bays on earth, or any nearby water source. There should be tougher laws on fertilizer use.

We tend to think more is better, eating excess amounts of vitamins and minerals in pills to supplement fresh vegetables and fruit, ignorant of how our body reacts to it. Similar, using fertilizer indiscriminately can adversely affect nature, far beyond the garden, as well…

I must say that the information you stated above was really great. Regarding fertilizing, the excessive use of it will really cause damage. It is just like when you are undergoing diet. Sometimes people think that taking medication to lose weight is just that easy but excessive diet medication can also cause harmful effects to your body.
People should take consideration first before using any fertilizers. Excessive use of it is really bad and I hope someday there will be tougher law on using fertilizers.

this kind of problem is the result of greed. there should be moderation in everything we do. even if the intent is for the common good, people tend to overdo things. we should promote environmental awareness and spread information in any way possible. you can do this even just by sitting in front of the computer. browse websites that can help promote environmental awareness.

there are fertilizers that do not have adverse effects compared to commercial ones. since they are organic, they are environmental friendly. this problem should be addressed and it would help if information is disseminated in every form possible, like creating blogs and sites concerning this subject.

Great metaphor use for dieting and "nutrient pollution". You dont really think about how a simple thing like your fertilizer for your yard can have a great impact on the broader ecology.

I have been using Royall products since 1959. That should say all I can for my opinion of these products. you can not find them many places. When I found Autosport Catalog as a source for these products I was truly thankful. Autosport has always provided the best service and price.

I have used Royall Fragrances for more than 40 years and have never been disappointed, nor grown tired of their mild and 'naturally true' scents. They are lightly aromatic, long lasting, and pleasantly refreshing. They are made in Bermuda, as stated, and are a welcome class of their own without competition from all the Parisian or New York hype. Although pricey, I truly doubt you would be disappointed if you like the natural fragrance of lime, island spice, sweet mandarin orange, and their own muske and bay rum colognes. I give them each 5 stars. And besides, I've always received complimentes from the ladies!

It's a huge weekend for college baseball in the Old North State with both N.C. State and UNC ready for rivalry-sized rematch on the diamond.
But whether you're Wolfpack red or Carolina blue, for the businesses selling college merchandise, it's all about the green.
"We've been so busy. Everybody is so excited," said Amanda Harding at Chapel Hill Sportswear. "People love it, they just love it."
While the baseball teams battle it out in Omaha. Back in the Triangle, fans on both sides are making a line drive to the registers -- gearing up to show their support.
"We have been busy; we've been getting suppliers to overnight us shirts," said Mario Ciardella at Go Pack Store.
Store workers say their merchandise is flying off the shelves -- shirts, hats, flags, you name it. Of course, the most popular items are related to the College World Series. And for N.C. State fans, there has been a void of new CWS merchandise since 1968.
"College World Series is definitely been the main focal point of what people are looking for," Ciardella explained.
N.C. State student Arthur Kyner added, "1968 is the last time they made it to a World Series, so it's been a while, and it's good to have the team back."
Regardless of who takes it all in the end, these business owners say the retail rewards of both teams making it to the World Series is a homerun in itself
"It's always great for business to have teams do well," Harding said. "Because we do well nationally, it brings recognition not only to the town but to the university and the region."

conebeckham wrote:Modernity has not put an end to anyone's suffering.
Although it has certainly improved the "quality of life" in many ways, and has put an end, or markedly decreased, SPECIFIC types of suffering, the root suffering-the suffering that really underlies it all--the cause of samsara--has not been rooted out one iota by "modernity."
The Buddha himself taught that better quality of life can provide individuals and societies with a basis for developing spiritual practice. When people are relatively free of poverty and disease, they have more leisure with which to study and practice the dharma. When society is more affluent, there is more dana available to support monasteries, and parents may be more willing to let their children ordain. When people have reached a certain level of economic security, they begin to see that the pursuit of material well-being is not enough to eliminate their dukkha and achieve happiness. Also, people who are not consumed with the fight for survival can be nicer to each other.
As Brecht said, "first grub, then ethics".
Some of the high points in Buddhist history (Tang and Song dynasty China, for instance) were very modern for their times.

Very informative and enjoyable.
Only slight negative was the lack of lighting at the campsite although this we were led to understand will be soon rectified.
Very comfortable transport, plenty of comfort stops.
Doing what: Overnight Uluru (Ayers Rock) Small-Group Camping Tour
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Alice with our guide Jenny from AAT KIngs. She was great company and very knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed the school of the air, telegraph station, flying doctors museum and reptile centre visits. We delighted in seeing kangaroos at the telegraph station and the stunning views of Alice from the Anzac Memorial. Thanks Jenny for a great introduction to Alice. This was a great way to spend an afternoon before heading to Uluru! Highly recommended

Doing what: Alice Springs Quad Bike Tour
We were disappointed by this tour, not with the content but with the short time we spent at the School of the Air, the Telegraph Station and, in particular, the Reptile Centre where we were raced through at a rate of knots and did not even catch sight of the salt water crocodile. Leaving the visit to the Anzac Memorial until last on a very hot day wasn't the best idea either. Our lady guide was almost disinterested in the trip and this coupled with the fact that there were at least two families with bored,crying children who were far too young for some of the venues left us glad to get back to the hotel,
Doing what: Alice Springs Highlights Half-Day Tour
This was an excellent way to get to see Alice Springs on a very short stop over. My driver arrived within minutes of my arrival at my Motel and was well knowledged about the area and extremely helpful as well. View of Alice Springs from Anzac Hill was breath taking and one had plenty of time to take photos as well on this tour. I found visiting the Historical Telegraph Station was excellent this I probably enjoyed the most coming from a farming back ground. They truly have restored this site so one could clearly see how things were during the early days of people manning this station. Visiting the School of the Air was very interesting and gave one the full history of how it all came about as well as how large an area this school covers. We also had the opportunity to watch teachers work over the air as well which now is mostly done on computers. There was also. the chance to contribute by buying books for the school. The Royal Flying Doctors Centre enlightened one about the wonderful work this team does for our very remote residents living in rural Australia. Found this very interesting as it now has grown over the years and man 68 planes throughout rural Australia helping people to get urgent medical assistance when needed. The Reptile Centre was also very interesting and the staff member knew his stuff as well about the various reptiles they had on show. We also got the chance to have a quick drive around Alice Springs which showed us that Alice Springs now has just about everything in the way of stores. Seeing the dry Todd River was amazing especially if you saw a follow up photo of it in flood times which is extremely rare. This was a wonderful tour to take for an afternoon in Alice Springs had plenty to show the group as well all entrance fees were covered in the one price. Had plenty of time to walk around and see things at our own leisure as well. This tour was very well presented and certainly gave me a lot of information about the area in a short time.

This trip was Amazing. We had a particularly excellent tour leader, driver, cook, info guide extraordinaire! I have both led and assisted in leading groups in other continents and traveled in many settings ways so know what it takes.
We slept under the stars, if preferred, I did, stayed in a bush camp, just our group. I think we lucked-out with a good group and perhaps, as another in the group said - it pays not to take the cheapest tour! In booking, I was looking for a way to get from Uluru [where I stayed 3 nights beforehand at Sails including xmas day, hired a car and did stacks of walking [and swimming] and this subsequent 4WD trip lived up to my expectations and more. I didn't want to do hotel stays and couldn't have done the back roads, which I love to do, in regular hire vehicle. I also wanted to get local info, a bit of other company yet smaller group, so this was a perfect way to feel 'outback' and maximise walk experiences - returning to walks I had done at Uluru and Kata Tjuta at other times of the day before joining this trip. The Red Centre is truly magical and so old and we given lots of wide-ranging information lots Brilliant, thank you, XJ

This was the highlight of my holiday. Uluru was breathtaking. It looks so big in photos but in real life it is enormous. Just beautiful. The Olgas were just as beautiful. Just amazing, one minute you are driving along with nothing but desert then suddenly here are these perfect little mountains. The tour guides were great. They told us about the aboriginal myths which were very interesting. Dinner was great and watching Uluru change colour at sunset was fabulous.

Doing what: Alice Springs Highlights Half-Day Tour
First, our compliments to AAT tour operators. Due to a late flight arrival at Alice Springs and a 1 1/2 hour transfer from the airport to Chiffley Hotel, we missed our scheduled tour pickup. We thought about trying to take a cab to catch the tour at one of the scheduled stops, but the hotel clerk said, "no worries" and called AAT who sent a driver over to pick us up and overtake the tour. He even provided insightful commentary that we would have otherwise missed. Tour driver/guide was great and provided interesting commentary that added to appreciation of the Alice Spings area. All five scheduled tour stops were very worhwhile; however, the curator's commentary at the reptile house was too lengthy.
Doing what: Alice Springs Highlights Half-Day Tour
We had a great time! The guides were friendly and knowledgable. We were fed every 2 hours and stopped for toilettes every 2-3 hours.
The atmosphere was light and friendly and we saw all that we intended to see.
Thank you

This was an amazing tour even though it was a very long trip. Mick and Calvin were fantastic tour guides and fun to be with. They respectfully explained the Aboriginal culture to us as they showed us the sites. Their 'barbie' was delicious! It was very special to be able to purchase art work from the Aboriginal ladies.
