Scientific Focus
Current Research and Scholarly Interests
My research interests span the breath of my clinical practice. Areas of active research include the multidisciplinary treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, technical aspects of minimally invasive pancreatic and liver surgery, and pre-operative therapy for "borderline" resectable pancreatic cancer (to bring more patients to surgery). I am also investigating trends in the management of hepatobiliary cancers in California, focusing on socioeconomic and instituional barriers to appropriate care.
Clinical Trials
- Not Recruiting Transarterial Chemoembolization vs CyberKnife for Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma
- Not Recruiting Phase II Gemcitabine + Fractionated Stereotactic Radiotherapy for Unresectable Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma
- Not Recruiting Combination SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy) With TACE (Transarterial Chemoembolization) for Unresectable Hepatocellular Carcinoma
- Not Recruiting Prognostic Value of Baseline Computed Tomography (CT) Perfusion Parameters of Pancreatic Cancer for Patients Undergoing Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy or Surgical Resection

Share the Road: Tractor Safety
The unpredictable weather has delayed many Missouri farmers this spring, but they are determined to get their crops in the ground and start cutting hay in hopes to have a profitable year. Even with an urgency to get tasks finished, it's important to observe safety procedures and not make safety an afterthought.
However, tractor safety isn't exclusive to farmers and ranchers. It's crucial for farmers and other motorists to share the road. Farmers will be driving to and from their farms, often times on busy highways. Tractors, especially those pulling implements or full loads, travel at slower speeds and can slow down regular traffic. Motorists need to be patient with those operating farm equipment. Although tractors may significantly slow down traffic, do not attempt to pass tractors unless you can see a clear road ahead.
The most important tip of tractor safety: know your tractor. Each tractor is a uniquely complex machine that requires training to use safely and efficiently. Be sure you know how to operate all parts and implements you may be using. If you are operating machinery with a power take-off (PTO), be sure to have the proper guard on. Never wear loose-fitting clothing around a PTO, and keep all body parts clear. Check out one Missouri farmer's story about farm safety dealing with a PTO.
If you're driving a tractor on Missouri highways, the tractor must be equipped with one white light visible from 500 feet to the front and at least one red light visible 500 feet to the rear. It is important to wait for traffic to clear before entering the highway to avoid allowing traffic to build up. Here are some other tips for safe tractor operation:
- Maintain control of equipment
- Stay alert
- Beware of blind intersections
- Keep the approaching traffic lane clear
- Use hand signals or turn signals
- Obey all traffic signs
For more information about safely operating tractors, visit Show-Me Farm Safety.

Author On the Bookcase: Vanessa Diffenbaugh
Please welcome the author of The Language of Flowers, Vanessa Diffenbaugh, to On the Bookcase! She has made a "Dictionary of Flowers" that in relationship to her novel, that will make for a great book club resource.
When I began The Language of Flowers, I owned only one flower dictionary: The Floral Offering: A Token of Affection and Esteem; Comprising the Language and Poetry of Flowers, written in 1859 by Henrietta Dumont. It was an ancient, crumbling hardcover, with dry flowers pressed between the pages. Scraps of poetry, collected by previous owners and stored between the yellowed pages, slipped to the floor as I scanned the book for meanings.
Three chapters into Victoria's story, I myself made the discovery of the yellow rose. In the table of contents at the beginning of Ms. Dumont's beautiful book, the yellow rose appears as jealousy. Hundreds of pages later, in the very same book, the yellow rose appears again: this time as infidelity.
Reading through the book more carefully, I found no explanation for the discrepancy, so I went in search of additional dictionaries, hoping to determine the "correct" definition of the yellow rose. Instead, I found that the problem was not specific to the yellow rose; nearly every flower had multiple meanings, listed in hundreds of books, in dozens of languages, and on countless websites.
The dictionary shown here was created in the manner in which Victoria compiled the contents of her boxes. Lining up dictionaries on my dining room table—The Flower Vase by Miss S. C. Edgarton, Language of Flowers by Kate Greenaway, The Language and Sentiment of Flowers by James D. McCabe, and Flora's Lexicon by Catharine H. Waterman—I scanned the meanings, selecting the definition that best fit the science of each flower, just as Victoria would have done. Other times, when Icould find no scientific reason for a definition, I chose the meaning that occurred most often or, occasionally, simply the one I liked best.
My goal was to create a usable, relevant dictionary for modern readers. I deleted plants from the Victorian dictionaries that are no longer common, and added flowers that were rarely used in the 1800s but are more popular today. I kept most food-related plants, as Victoria would have, and deleted most nonflowering trees and shrubs because, as Victoria says, there is nothing wistful about the passing of sticks or long strips of bark.
I am grateful for the assistance of Stephen Zedros of Brattle Square Florist in Cambridge and Lachezar Nikolov at Harvard University. This dictionary would not exist without their vast knowledge and generous support.
Read Victoria's Dictionary of Flowers.
To write The Language of Flowers, Vanessa Diffenbaugh found inspiration in her own experience as a foster mother. After studying creative writing and education at Stanford University, Vanessa taught art and writing to youth in low-income communities. She and her husband, PK, have three children and live in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This is her first novel.

I want to be silly and complain about my boyfriend's annoying quirks, my teenage children and their hormonally induced sadism or my deep driving desire to live out the rest of my days, looking out over the garden from the barred and triple enforced window of a peaceful isolation cell, swaddled in a straight jacket.
I want to, but my heart hurts way too much.
For those of you who don't live here in Montréal, I imagine you either don't have a clue what's going on here, or are getting a somewhat warped media-portrayed version of the turn of events in Québec.
I imagine that many of you know that there have been monstrous demonstrations going on here for the last month but aren't entirely sure what it is we are protesting against.
Had I started this blog post a month ago, I would have told you that the demonstrations here are fuelled by the Premier's decision to increase tuition by 75% over the next 5 years.
But since then, Charest has also proposed his Plan Nord (his controversial $80-billion 25-year plan to develop Quebec's north)
He publicly ridiculed and insulted the demonstrators ( As the protesting students demonstrated outside Montreal's convention centre, Premier Jean Charest joked that he knew of a suitable place for them.
"We could offer them a job … in the North, as far (north) as possible,")
And he proposed Bill 78 – A law that stipulates that demonstrations (including their intended route and the exact duration) of more than 50 people must give advance notice to and be approved by the police.
So there are people demonstrating for a variety and combination of reasons, all with a common route and all sharing a theme of protesting the violation of the peoples basic democratic and human rights.
All of the demonstrations that I have attended were entirely peaceful on the part of the protesters. I was beaming with pride the last few nights, at the casserole protest in my current neighbourhood, and my old stomping grounds.
My heart was swollen with love and mushiness by the support of the neighbours, banging pots on their balconies, the passers by honking from their cars, the tennis players banging their rackets on the chain link, the City worker passing by, clanging a frying pan against the door of her truck…
I felt a true sense of unity, for a very human cause.
The students get a bad rap, for "complaining" about tuition hikes, despite having the lowest tuition in the country – but we also have the highest taxes in the country and horrifically mismanaged governmental funds.
And it's not only students who are up in arms. There have been up to and over 200,000 protesters of all ages, and financial and social status marching in these protests.
The demonstrators get a bad rap here for having thrown rocks through a few bank windows, lighting garbage cans on fire and even setting off a couple of smoke bombs in the metro and throwing "projectiles" at the riot squad.
I myself am 100% against all any any violence directed at anyone. Ever. And I also don't support the demonstrators trying to impede other students from attending classes. It's hypocritical and unfair.
But I hold the government and it's officials to a higher standard and proposing a police state, in a province where the police have been on a rampage of undisciplined brutality that is so absolutely horrifying it makes me want to scream and break things and run away to live in a tent in Costa Rica. Countless protesters, as well as many innocent bystanders, have been pepper-sprayed, kettled, gassed, beaten, maimed, and sexually assaulted etc… in the last month.
One of these said victims of police brutality, is currently in the trauma Centre of St-Luc Hospital, with his spinal cord severed and fractured vertebrae and is in a deep coma with little chance of survival.
There have been over 1500 arrests over the past month. Most of these arrests have been for merely demonstrating. Much of the violence has been directed at demonstrators who, with their back turned, are completely unsuspecting – including Françis Grenier, who was shot directly in the side of the face with a rubber bullet, subsequently hospitalized for several days, underwent surgery and is possibly permanently blind in one eye as a result.
Police have been caught on video, in uniform, breaking the windows of businesses and even stealing money.
It's completely out of control but if the Government backs down, they send the message that the people need only stage mutiny to over run them.
If the demonstrators back down, they send the message that need only be aggressed into submission.
It's a vicious circle and I don't see an end in sight. And that makes my heart hurt.
Originally I had embedded a video montage of some of the police brutality the citizens of Quebec are suffering but it's too vulgar and discouraging.
This one made me cry even more. It made me feel hopeful.

PHOTOS: Games that will never make it to the Olympics
Every two years, the world waits in anticipation for the Olympic Games. It is the height of athleticism, competition, and pride in one's country. For athletes who compete in the games, this event can be the realization of dreams or the disappointment of a lifetime.
All of this fanfare, built around games.
While the Olympics represent the upper echelon of games, for many, games are simply a way to pass the time, connect with others, and have fun. The Olympics utilize the best in facilities and technology, but many games for people in developing nations involve found objects and a heavy dose of creativity and ingenuity. These games will never make it to the Olympics -- and that's okay. The joy they bring to their participants is worth more than a gold medal.

The next time you fill up your little VW Bug with biodiesel you'll be shocked to find out that you could be contributing to the continuing deforestation of the world's rainforests.
How? Palm, a popular species of tree from which the cheapest and easiest forms of biofuels are sourced from, is the world's number one fruit crop, outpacing the once untouchable banana. Oil from these trees has become a fast and cheap way to produce biodiesel. The explosion in the oil palm market has resulted in massive amounts of deforestation in Africa, South America, Indonesia, Malaysia and other south pacific countries, as corporations and big-business start flocking to the oil palm market.
And this is where the irony is: while supporting a more sustainable fuel source for my automobile that will help limit the amount of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere while I drive, I am also supporting an industry that clear-cuts huge swaths of tropical rainforest further limiting the amount of CO2 absorbed by these forests that play a vital role in slowing and stopping global climate change.
What's interesting about this comparison (that of fighting global climate change by using biodiesel to cut vehicle CO2 emissions or by supporting the forests of tropical regions that absorb massive amounts of CO2)is that it doesn't have to be one or the other. We can do both.
Biodiesel can come from many different oils besides palm, including rapeseed, soybean, hemp, algae, mustard seed, flax seed, sunflower, vegetable oil waste, and canola oil. All of these are able to be made into an efficient and clean-burning biodiesel. So why is the industry being dominated by only one, the palm tree?
Well, because of all the various oils that biodiesel can be made from, oil from palm trees has one of the highest yields outside of algae and Chinese tallow. This means that from a production standpoint, oil palm is a much more efficient (and therefore lucrative) business to be in. (Why we haven't jumped all over Chinese tallow — an invasive species in the U.S. — is beyond me).
What must be kept in mind, and in our overall strategy in dealing with emissions, is that there is no silver bullet. The world can't all depend on one solution because first, one solution for my region may not be available to someone with the same problem in Italy. Second, any one solution that 6.3 billion people latch onto will have dramatic effects on our environment. We need a diversity of solutions. A diversity of crops with which to draw biodiesel from, a diversity of power plants including wind, solar, and geothermal from which to draw energy from. This diversity is what will sustain the ecological balance we have fallen out of on this planet. Governments can support all types of natural oils and subsidize the ones that cost more or are more difficult to produce. But we simply can't keep thinking that there is one solution that will work for all economies and all environmental challenges that we face as a world.
We have already started converting what was once natural rainforest into monoculture farms for soy, palm oil and other agricultural fast-money crops, much like we did for beef production in the late '80s and '90s (and still do). From a forest ecology standpoint, it brings into question how quickly they are being killed off under the guise of seemingly natural plantations and tree farms.

Daniel Weil: The Art of Design
- 14 May — 31 August 2014
Thirty-five years ago, Daniel Weil arrived from his native Argentina to study design at the Royal College of Art. His reaction to political and post-industrial freedom produced the seminal Bag Radio in 1981, followed by a continuous series of inventive objects, products and interiors.
This exhibition focuses on the process of design, about how designers think and work. Weil, longstanding Partner at Pentagram, former RCA Professor of Industrial Design and Memphis participant, presents his experience and philosophy of design practice as a manifesto of 'actions for designers', exploring how Weil interprets sources, chooses projects, uses colour and creates form.
A dazzling exhibition installation, like a wunderkammer, reveals the full range of Weil's work, sources of inspiration and collections of found objects. The show features a series of new clocks, emphasising Weil's interest in design as an experience of fundamentals – time, light, space and communication. Weil puts drawing at the heart of design and his 287 sketchbooks are a focus of this witty and thought-provoking exhibition.
The exhibition's Guest Curator is Martina Margetts, Senior Tutor in Critical & Historical Studies at the Royal College of Art, who has known Daniel Weil throughout his career.

Louis Kahn: The Power of Architecture
- 9 July — 12 October 2014
The American architect Louis Kahn (1901-1974) is regarded as one of the great master builders of the Twentieth Century. Kahn created buildings of monumental beauty with powerful universal symbolism.
This exhibition encompasses an unprecedented and diverse range of architectural models, original drawings, travel sketches, photographs and films. All of Kahn's important projects are extensively documented from his early urban planning concepts and single-family houses to monumental late works such as the Roosevelt Memorial (1973-74), which was posthumously completed in October 2012. Highlights of the exhibition include a four-metre-high model of the spectacular City Tower designed for Philadelphia (1952-57), as well as previously unseen film footage shot by Kahn's son Nathaniel Kahn, director of the film 'My Architect'. The view of Kahn's architectural oeuvre is augmented by a selection of travel sketches, which shed new light on his activity as an artist. The exhibition also includes interviews with leading architects Frank Gehry, Renzo Piano, Peter Zumthor and Sou Fujimoto underscoring the significance and legacy of Kahn's work.
Louis Kahn's most important works include: The Salk Institute in La Jolla, California (1959-65), the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas (1966-72), and the National Assembly Building in Dhaka, Bangladesh (1962-83).

We're getting rid of all of the tradition ceiling fans in the house we bought and replacing them with more contemporary looking fans. This was the first one we saw that we liked and we installed it in the kitchen. Looks exactly as described (very nice) and the installation was a snap. I really like the remote as well. A great purchase and good value.
We love these fans! Being in Texas we needed ceiling fans in our bedrooms and we looked for months for a reasonably priced modern fan and these were perfect. They fit snug to the ceiling, you can't lower it like a traditional fan. This was exactly what we were looking for since we have standard ceiling heights in our older home and these give the illusion of having a higher ceiling because they mount directly to the ceiling. They are powerful enough to generate a lot of cooling air but are very sleek and stylish. The light in them is fluorescent and gives off a good deal of light, I believe a little more than 100watt equivalent. The remote is very easy to operate. We couldn't be happier, amazing value for the price, comparable fans we looked at cost at least twice as much.
I installed this ceiling fan myself (girl on a ladder!!) and it was the easiest one I have ever installed. It has a remote that was easy to put in because of the design.
My wife bought this to replace one of those ubiquitous white Hunter 5-blades whose motor burned out. We are going modern with our decor and this fan looks like a more expensive brand's hugger style (there is no down rod and you install flush to the ceiling), which we wanted with our low ceilings. Clean, spare metallic lines replaced white perforated metal and brass pull chains that hit you in the face when you walk around at night. Operation in 1st 24 hours is quiet (minimal hum), no complaints about air movement but it's only a 10x12 bedroom, remote control works, install is easy if you know DIY electrical (I consulted web when I got confused), able to wire light to the switch and the fan to the remote via 2nd existing hot and we like that the light kit uses 2 regular Edison bases for CFLs up to 20W. Light kit is cheaply made - this means do not exceed 20W in case of fire and we had to make adjustments to flanges so it didn't look so lopsided - makes me think that quality not great based on another reviewer's comments. Overall we're happy with the look and price so ordering a 2nd to replace another aging 80s fan.
great for the price. looks great up. the fact that the blades are like cardboard might be better and safer
I ordered this fan because it met all my needs; finish, light & low profile. I had it professionally installed, but that didn't help the poor quality. First of all, the light is terrible. I bought 3 different light bulbs thinking that was the issue (it wasn't). And lastly, it's sooo loud! I can't stand having it on, it's actually distracting. I've been happy with every product I've made at Overstock, but this fan is as bad as it can get. Overstock's customer service is awesome, thank you!
The price the look wow I am very pleased with this buy!
While the design and features of this fan are great, ours has a problem that I hope will be resolved when a new remote control arrives!! Customer Service thus far has been very helpful.
Amazing ceiling fan. High quality, and great value.
This is a good fan for the price. It has an RF remote that works well and the fan can stir up some air in a small room. Overall I like it. Can't imagine it in a large room. Unfortunately, when installing it the glass cover for the light fixture shattered extremely easily - rain glass shards into my bed. Now the light is a bit of eyesore. Pros - looks nice, good remote, 3 speed, good circulation for small area, has good lighting [aside from the shattering glass] Cons - cheap, easily shattering glass Things to consider - no reverse, no light dimmer, would not recommend for large rooms

Burn Dual Audio w/ Subs dvd? Too many google answers...
Way too many google answers and not one of them what I'm looking for nor straight. Internet is flooded with "flatten then burn" answers. I did try looking. I swear. I also hope this is the right section of the forums. If not, I'm sorry and please direct me to the right place.
Here's what I'm looking to do:
I want to burn a video track, two audio tracks, and a subtitle track to a playable dvd in a regular player where you can select the different tracks. NOT flatten them through something like handbreak and have two different videos, one with the hard subs embedded into the video, via iDVD.
I'm making my own archive disc of a really old cartoon. Oh yeah, I'm broke so freeware for this one project would be great.
I already have it as an mkv if that will help shorten the process. I also have the four elements (video, 2 audio, and subtitles) all separate.
Thanks for any help!

I would say DVD Studio Pro will surely accomplish this.
However, if your not looking to invest in Final Cut Studio, there has GOT to be a way to do this otherwise.
I would repost this as a new thread here:

Tera-WURFL is a PHP class that can identify the capabilities of mobile devices using the standardized Wireless Universal Resource File (WURFL). This implementation uses the same methods as the stock PHP WURFL library, but significantly improves performance by storing the WURFL data in a database backend (currently only MySQL). You can use multiple patch files to override the capabilities in the WURFL file. Tera-WURFL is able to figure out if the client visiting your site is a wireless device or a desktop Web browser. Unlike other implementations of WURFL, Tera-WURFL includes an easy-to-use graphical user interface to allow you to update your WURFL file directly from the Internet, load the WURFL file, browse and clear the device cache, and more.
Extended MySQLi implements a MySQL database access wrapper using the MySQLi extension. It is based on the Reduced MySQLi class originally written by Mertol Kasanan. This version can account the memory usage and log the executed queries in the current page. It can also cache the query results in an XML file.
MQL is a PHP class that acts as a database access wrapper for using the MySQL or MySQLi extensions. It can establish connections to a MySQL server, execute INSERT queries given the table name and field value arrays, execute SELECT queries and return single values or arrays with results, and execute arbitrary queries and return the number of result rows, the number of affected rows, or the last inserted identifier.
Lightweight MVC is a PHP implementation of the MVC design pattern. It is small and ideal for learners. There is no view loader, so all public methods and variables inside the controllers will be exposed to the views. It uses a library system to make it easy to move your codebase to and from other MVC implementations.
fkchk is a MySQL InnoDB/XtraDB foreign key checker and repairer. It is useful if you suspect that your database's foreign keys may be broken, or if you disable foreign key checks and now want to be sure that the data is consistent. It is also useful if you have suffered a performance hit and want to check the consistency of foreign keys to verify that they're not the reason. It can attempt to repair any issues it finds, but this option should not be used and is only implemented for testing purposes.

"Trying, to their credit"
Reviewed Mar 11, 2014
LuckyWest | Austin, TX
This is an older property, which is what we were looking for, as we were traveling with new dog and had to take his big sleeping crate to room and didn't want a multi-floor LQ but wanted to park by our door. We got a very good online rate ($72 or so?) and agreed to take ADA room as it was only ground floor with a king. Most ADA rooms are not that different from standard rooms, but this one was: the closet only had low bar, no place to hang clothes off the floor, and the shower was at ground level with only a sloped drain and curtain to keep the rest of the very spartan bath from getting wet. Probs started with used hand towels (and no fresh) left in sink, but front desk & housekeeping got on it right away with sincere apologies. There was also a distinct smoke smell emanating from the bathroom vent, which they sent maintenance to tape over with plastic while we were at dinner (much apprec'd, but they left footprints on our toilet seat while doing this). Then the AC unit was nearly impossible to adjust, kept shutting off--called front desk about this repeatedly at 10 pm, no answer, ever. The next morning, when the shower mechanism fell apart and entire bath got sprayed/soaked, we decided to let them know just how many problems this room had. Again, to their credit, they apologized and entirely comped the room. All in all, though, would have preferred a working room we paid for than the experience we had. The property is fairly nice looking, and our room was surprising quiet, facing the pool, when the whole place is just steps from the Interstate. They seem sincerely to care if things are OK, and if I were traveling on a budget or in same situ w/the dog, I'd give them another chance. No fridge or microwave in room, unusual for LQ, but this is the old style motel.

After experiencing a terrible hotel that was not associated with this chain I booked this one last minute. As a backup hotel it worked out even better then the first one. I enjoyed the friendliness and assistance of the desk clerk. She allowed me into the room early. This was a godsend because I was exhausted from the previous night's driving.

An older but well maintained motel style property ...very clean, very comfortable, very private with cordial staff. Bedding typical great quality la Quinta. Location is in an older part of San Antonio but well placed next to I-10 with quick access to downtown, the medical center and the hill country. Better priced than equal properties a few miles up/down the hwy in more visibl locations. Why spend 15-20 $ more when this quaint place meets all your overnight needs..

Avoid these arrogant people...read on – I have eaten in hundreds of restaurants all over the world and I never met such a behaviour as I did in Akbar in Baltimore.
We went to this restaurant and ordered two dishes. The place looked pretty nice and the prices were not cheap but acceptable.
When my dish came I started to eat, and after I had eaten about 1/3 of it (which was pretty fine but salty) I saw something moving in my plate. In general I am not a person who is disgusted and if for example I find a hair or even a small fruit fly in my food I will put it aside and continue eating without complaining.
This time as the buug was pretty big, had many legs and was still alive, I couldn't continue my food and I called the waitress. She saw the plate, took it, went to the manager and came to ask me if I wanted to continue eating the rest of my food in another plate (!!!).....I was pretty shocked and told her that no, I wasn't able to continue eating my food and I would like to go. She comes with the bill without having deduce anything from it!!! Not even 1 $ just to be nice!!! I receive the second shock and tell her that at least I would expect not to pay for my plate as I found a live buug in it and I hadn't even eaten it!
The waitress first and then the manager come to us and start arguing, trying to convince us that we brought the buug in! They actually asked my if I went to the park that day and I brought it with me in my hair!!! How incredibly ludicrous are these people?! I was at a loss. I thought they were joking but apparently they were absolutely serious.
Instead of appeasing us and excusing themselves for having found a live buug in my plate, they actually attacked us and said that it was our fault. Amongst their absurd arguments was that "if the buug had entered while it was being cooked, it would be dead by now!!!". So if it had been dead I had the right to complain, now that it was alive it was our fault.
FInally, after all this arguing they removed 7$ from the bill. I found that unacceptable and told them that if they were smart, they would try to satisfy their customers instead of trying to make a few bucks more as long as a bad review could cost them a lot more than just a few dollars. After half hour of arguing they agreed to remove 17$ (the plate was 22$) off the bill....
I am sorry for the ranting but I've never seen anything like this before. I hope they lose customers and they learn their lesson.
Worst buffet – Lunch buffet is horrible, chicken tikka masala is made using a premade sauce which tastes old and nasty. Better go to kabab stop in Mt. washington, a place that serves authentic and tasty indian food.
The best Indian restaurant in Baltimore – I have been to Akbar many times .The food and the staff is always great.
Its unforunate that the last reviewer could not get in because of one bad server.
I think it deserves another chance before rating it one star.
The place is located in Mt.Vernon the best historical place in the city .Its very
close to Walers art gallery.Peabody institute,Johns Hopkins hospital and university
Syphony hall and center stage.
I would recomend Akbar for best India food.
Worst experience in Balto ever! Can't rate 0 stars. – We (with an out-of-town guest) arrived on Saturday at 2:45PM for the weekend buffet. We were scared away by a belligerent staffer exclaiming repeatedly "We are closed" and "Dinner starts at 5!"
I understand from others Akbar has good food, but despite arriving (very hungry) during the published weekend buffet window (10AM-3PM), we were turned away.
We would have gladly been seated for a dinner menu, but that was clearly impossible.
Also, Akbar isn't in a good neighborhood (we were presented with beggars asking for food money). Parking is difficult as well.
So, go to a Bombay Grill (locations all around the Metro DC/Balto area) instead.
Great food, great atmosphere – The food here is amazing. I love the lamb saag. The atmosphere is great too. Formal, yet informal at the same time. Romantic, yet also comfortable to go just for fun or to hang out with friends. Highly recommend.
Very rude lunch service – I've always found Akbar's food to be average, above average at best (slightly better than Kumari's Nepalese food; Mughal Garden's is much better). But the last time I went WAS the last time. I went in on a not-so-busy Sunday to have the maitre'd stare at me from across the room. About three minutes later he finally seated me, and I went to the buffet. I'm there, putting the food on my plate, and this guy drags a table right in my direction. No waiting for the customer to move, not even a simple "Excuse me." He just about knocks me over! And there is not much room to get out of the way, mind you. Then, once I am seated, the same gentleman comes up the aisle behind my chair, collides with me, and keeps on going as if I wasn't there. Again, no "Excuse me!" Now I am a pretty polite and tolerant patron, and am pretty understanding of little snags like late food or accidentally dropped dishes. And I usually leave about a 15% tip. And since the service is pretty much self-serve, one has to go out of one's way to merit a low tip. The folks at Akbar really went out of their way for that low tip. And I accommodated them, by leaving 10 cents.
Some folks have had great experiences with Akbar. I, sadly, will not set foot in Akbar again. Go to Mughal Garden, Kumari or Bombay Grill, even Indian Delight in Catonsville instead if you want hospitality. But not Akbar.
Authentic, delicious and affordable – I have been to Akbar half a dozen times. The food is consistently delicious and served piping hot! The atmosphere is a little gloomy but the food is why you become a regular here. And it's totally affordable. A local's secret! Need I say more!
Downtown Baltimore gem! – I have been a regular patron of the downtown location for over 10 years! The ambience of this quiet little gem is not readily revealed as you descend below the sidewalk on North Charles Street. However, you are quickly greeted (and recognized as a regular) as you enter this cozy, brick walled restaurant. You must get there early or make a reservation to get a booth or accomodate a party of more than 4 on the weekend. The very moist chicken tikka is my favorite with an order of nan. My husband prefers the ecclectic mixed tandoori grill with marsala and an order of paratha. We have dined in and carried out on more occasions than we can count are always very satisfied! Fun place to take out of town guests to show them Baltimore has more to offer than an overpriced and crowded inner harbor and crabs!
A spicy mix of cumin and coriander in a comfy, converted rathskeller. – The Scene
Tucked away in the basement of an old house in historic Mount Vernon, this popular Indian restaurant exudes a cozy warmth with its candlelit brick-faced interior. Suited customers find further comfort by plunking down in one of the plush leather banquettes while the sight of serene Indian artwork and the sound of traditional music complete the reposeful mood.
The Food
Akbar offers a broad variety of Northern Indian dishes--from the Anglo-influenced Mulagatawny soup (a.k.a. pepper water) to the smorgasbord of a vegetarian Thali. Whether you're ordering tandoori kabob baked in a charcoal oven or the more adventurously flavored shrimp vindaloo, the menu's spiciness ranges from understated mild to a throat-scorching hot. Should you decide to go for the zing, be sure to order one of the palate-cleansing breads--stuffed with tempting ingredients like dried fruits or nuts. Kheer and Kulfi, the almond-inflected rice pudding and ice cream respectively, will cool you down come dessert.
Best Indian Food in Baltimore – I have tried almost all of the Indian restaurants in Baltimore, and Akbar has to be considered the best. The food is always good and the service is always prompt and courteous.

Bitter Texas-Texas A&M rivalry prepares for a sudden ending
Story Highlights
With Texas A&M going to SEC, Aggies and Texas play for final time Thursday
Texas once considered school for elite, while A&M was a farming institution
"I'm bitter," said McLemore. "How do you kiss off 100-plus years of history?"
The week before Thanksgiving, in 1999, the Texas A&M Aggies and the Texas Longhorns bonded in a way that they had never done before and never could again. Twelve sons and daughters of A&M had died in the collapse of the 59-foot-high Bonfire, a hands-on Aggies tradition in which students had been participating annually since 1909.
The visible sympathy of the Texas players and students had been a healing touch. In Austin, thousands gathered on campus for a candlelight ceremony; the Tower chimes rang out in tribute, and the band played The Spirit of Aggieland.
Before the game in College Station, 12 white doves were released and circled Kyle Field before flying away, and four F-16 jets, piloted by A&M graduates, did a flyover in the missing-man formation. At halftime, the Longhorn band played Amazing Grace, and the game ended the only way dramatic license could allow, with a 20-16 Aggies' upset of a Texas team that would win the Big 12 South. The result wasn't sealed until the final 23 seconds, when linebacker Brian Gamble swept up a Texas fumble. Then, in front of the A&M sideline, he fell to his knees, raised both arms and pointed to the heavens.
In more than a century -- Texas and A&M first played in 1894 -- the rivalry did not always rise to this level of life-and-death emotion, although on a football scale the teams surely tried. Now here we are, a dozen years later, bracing for the last encounter in the state's oldest and most storied football series. A&M is bound for the SEC next fall, its defection a response to Texas's iron-fist ruling of Big 12 politics and the school's landing a $300 million deal from ESPN to launch the Longhorn Network. Where to place the blame -- Longhorn greed or Aggie envy -- hardly matters. But what the game has meant to the fans of the schools and to the public passions matters greatly.
Texas will remain in the Big 12, for now, counting its blessings -- and its money. A&M athletic director Bill Byrne wants to continue the series in nonconference play, but his counterpart at Texas, DeLoss Dodds, has told Byrne, thanks but no thanks; the Longhorns' schedule is full through at least 2018.
Across the Lone Star State, reactions have been angry, sad, disappointed, even dumbfounded. "I'm bitter," says Ivy McLemore, former sports editor of The Houston Post. "It's all about money. How do you kiss off 100-plus years of all that history?"
Most Texas exes have stayed true to their school, but admit to being disturbed. "You can't explain this rivalry, you have to experience it," says former Longhorns running back Chris Gilbert, a College Football Hall of Famer. "But I'm like anyone else. I can't imagine Thanksgiving Day without the game."
To the purists among us, and those fluent in Latin, it is tempting to ask, "Et tu, UT?" And the same can be said, of course, for the Aggies. When they fled hand-in-hand to the Big 12 in the mid 1990s, the state's football addicts gave those programs their devotion, their hearts and their coin, buying bobbleheads and replica jerseys. They wished them packed stadiums and television dollars that fell like raindrops upon their heads. They wished them happy trails. They accept the reality that this is sports in the 21st century. It looks suspiciously like Big Business. They feel betrayed. Frank Merriwell doesn't live here anymore.
For one last time, those who attended neither school will be drawn into the drama on this Thanksgiving doomsday. Ranked No. 8 in the preseason, A&M has been a bust in its farewell tour of the Big 12. The 6-5 Aggies have emerged as the best five-loss team in America. They blew double-digit leads in the second half to Oklahoma State, Arkansas and Missouri. They outscored Oklahoma, except for giving up 28 straight points in the third quarter. They fell in four overtimes to Kansas State, 53-50.
Meanwhile, Texas is 6-4 after consecutive losses to Missouri and Kansas State. On Thanksgiving there will be little at stake in terms of national importance, and yet there will be everything at stake: the right of one to lord it over the other. The shelf life of these bragging rights used to be one year. Now the winner of the last one can gloat forever.
You marvel that the vendetta has retained its intensity, given that Texas has won twice as often over the years (75-37-5.) As early as the 1950s, A&M coach Paul "Bear" Bryant was asked why the 'Horns had been so dominant, and without hesitation he replied, "Texas hates us more than we hate them."
The Bonfire tragedy tempered that animosity, but the teams and their faithful have continued to bleed for a win and feel diminished by defeat. Some of the insanity disappeared when Texas put together long stretches of wins, and those shootouts against Arkansas took on a higher meaning. And there was always Oklahoma. The Aggies only had eyes for Texas.

Thank ye Shadows ;D yeah I see, I shall attempt to rectify that
Also more sketches and shit;
SPOILER! :Anatomeh

Thanks both of you!! ^_^ going to work on my shading a bit more next I think
Working something that shall hopefully be up later
I dunno how much ofa jerk ill sound like after saying this but.... why do you do manga faces? They are cute and all but one of the main qualities of manga come from a somewhat flat face with no shadows.... AND YOUR SHADOWS ARE FUCKIN AMAZING!!! Your anatomy is ALMOST perfect some minor proportions hiccups here and there, but besides that they are great, and i really think you should try experimenting with faces a little bit ( i understand that you probably just like the 'look' of manga an thus draw them but i think you could do so much more!!!) Also do some more hand studies.... i should too....
Thank you very much for the confidence boost!
(Haha yes... the hand studies :P they are coming up soon, and lots of them :P)
A REALLY terrible sketch, the eyes were fucked up frankly :L but hey, at least it was a sketch and not trying to be anatomically correct >.>'
Quick Sketch Gift for a friend;
SPOILER! :Horrible eyes ;_____;
Oh gawds a male :P the actual widths of shoulders and waists and hips on the original I was given to draw were a bit weird, so I think I copied it a bit too much >.>' especially the shoulder width :L
An other sketch for a friend;
Last edited by Demonfyre; 02-14-2013 at 08:19 PM.
Both look great! The first's closest eye is a bit lower than the far one. On the second, I'm not so sure the clothe around his chest would be pulled like that; there's no real reason for it to be that tight and that low, especially since tunics like that are usually of thicker fabric.
That looks awesome ahhhh!

Study Abroad
Non-UWL Programs
Recently, students have sought out study abroad programs from other universities and program providers. It is important to consider that if a student applies for non-UWL programs, the student is completely independent in the application process. By applying to non-UWL approved programs, students acknowledge the following:
|Students are responsible for all program
application, submissions, payment of fees, insurance coverage,
orientation sessions, visa procurement, etc.
|Students applying for non-UWL supported
programs will NOT be enrolled at UWL for the term of
study. Therefore, students will be required to re-apply prior
to their return to campus (see Admissions Re-entry section:
NOTE: There is no guarantee that there will be a spot at UWL for you for when you want to return to UWL.
|Students are responsible for contacting
the Office of International Education and request an Academic
Plan form to be completed with their faculty or College advisor
PRIOR to departure on their program. It is also the
student's responsibility to request their study abroad program
transcripts be sent to the OIE office for credit evaluation.
|At the time of your meeting with OIE, you
must submit a printed description of your study program and the
institution offering the program. If approved, OIE will submit
a letter to Financial Aid alerting them of your participation in
a non-UWL program. You will be required to complete three (3)
forms for this approval:
Application Form
These forms will be provided to you at the time of your meeting with the OIE representative.
FAO will process Consortium Agreements for UWL students attending programs offered by other UW System campuses, Viterbo University, Western Technical College and Winona State. They will NOT initiate a Consortium Agreement for any other schools, domestic or international. You will have to make an appointment with a representative in the UW-L FAO. Bring with you the approval letter provided you by OIE.
The UWL FAO will complete the Home School Section of the Consortium Agreement and will show you the Student Section that has to be completed. It will be the student's responsibility to get the Consortium Agreement to the Financial Aid Office of the visiting school. The FAO at the Visiting School will complete their section and return it to the UWL FAO. It will also be the student's responsibility to follow the progress of the Consortium Agreement to make sure that it gets back to the UWL FAO.
The student's financial aid will NOT be sent to the visiting school until AFTER the start of the UW-L's grading period for which the financial aid was processed.

Five ways to tell you're Apple-addicted.
It would appear that the Apple iPhone 5 is well on-course for a September release date, and it looks very shiny indeed. I own a Macbook Pro, and I absolutely love the thing, but I stop short at iPads, iPhones and iPod Touches simply because I know that they're a lot more restrictive and overpriced than Apple would have me believe. I'm sure the latter is also the case for my computer, but it's also got one of the best keyboards in the world and an incredible OSX, so I find those two features help somewhat, although OSX could be out the window soon if Jobs and co. have their way.
So are you Apple-addicted? I thought I'd offer five ways in which you can tell. Feel free to use this list to identify addicts when you're out and about – believe me, some of them are that easy to spot.
1) You will pay literally any price. Some iProducts are priced at a level that renders them inaccessible to most. People will sign phone contracts with gigantic monthly charges just to own an iPhone 4. The Macbook, I feel, is a justifiably expensive machine, but a smartphone that can't multitask worth a damn or a tablet computer that can't even run Flash? No, I don't think so.
2) You will upgrade every time you can. There are people out there who own every generation of iPhone. I don't mean the 3GS and the 4, I mean the three that came before those models, too. My Macbook is now one generation behind, but I'll be damned if I'm going to replace it before the Olympics, if not later. If it works and it runs the latest OS, keep it.
3) Everything Steve Jobs says sounds like honey flowing down your ear canal. Jobs is a lovely bloke, and I feel no ill-will towards him whatsoever. But sometimes he's a little arrogant, and those that can't stop talking about how great his presentations are are blind to the self-important commentary he provides every time a comparison-bearing slide mentions Microsoft. He's a brilliant technological innovator, but it's not just him there are many others working with him. People forget this about Gates, too, who isn't even the CEO any more. Must irk Steve Balmer to no end.
4) You continue to use your barely-paid-for iPhone with a cracked screen. Look – just get it repaired! If you can't afford an iPhone, that's not your fault – that's theirs. They overprice the iPhone to the degree where it's hard to buy one on launch day, let alone repair it a week later once you drop it and crack the not-actually-shatter-proof glass screen. There's a desperate quality to these people, attempting to play Angry Birds or write important business emails through the haze of spider-web fissures and shame.
5) You're feeling uncomfortable right now. I'm a fan of Apple products, and I'm open about it – a lot of people tend to back-track fairly rapidly when confronted about their unabashed love for everything with a metallic casing and an Apple logo somewhere on it. Chill out. I'll argue the benefits of Mac OSX and my Macbook Pro till the cows come home, because any writer knows that the keyboards they supply are the best on the market, and that combined with an efficient OSX and good hardware means I don't have to justify the purchase.
Hopefully that should help, but in the meantime, enjoy The Oatmeal's fantastic Apple comic; I feel it really captures the whole experience of being an Apple addict.
