Cooperative Education is an academic program that integrates classroom study with career-related work experiences. Co-op work experiences are paid, full-time, six-month positions related to academic and career interests. Co-op is an optional and, in most cases, non-credit program. The program is coordinated through the Center for Advising and Career Exploration (CACE).CCSU's program consists of professional preparation one semester before going out to work, with six months of paid co-op employment. Thus, students apply textbook learning to on-the-job training. The money earned often helps students finance their University education.Co-op students are assigned to a CACE Advisor/Cooperative Education coordinator who guides their career development and develops appropriate co-op placements. Students receive instruction in skills that make the difference in today's job market: résumé writing, interviewing techniques, career planning, and job-seeking strategies. Through participation in the co-op program, students can graduate with up to two years of career-related work experience and, possibly, with a job offer. Many of CCSU's co-op students are offered permanent positions with their co-op employers upon graduation. Nationwide, graduates of co-op programs are hired at higher salaries and promoted faster than other employees. For students unsure of a career, co-op is a no-risk way to test job options. For those set in their goals, co-op provides a direct route from campus to career.
The Intensive English Language Program (IELP) offers full-time and part-time English language and American culture instruction to international students and faculty, foreign professionals, and members of the Connecticut community.The IELP is dedicated to ensuring that students have a positive experience. Drawing from a strong curriculum and professionally degreed faculty, each session's courses are tailored to meet the needs of the students enrolled at that time. Classes are small, so teachers get to know and offer support and encouragement to each student individually. Activities arranged by the IELP offer students the opportunity to meet and interact with American students and local culture. Living in another country is an exciting adventure and a challenge. The members of the IELP understand this and are here to help in every way possible. The IELP and the George R. Muirhead Center for International Education staff are always available to answer questions about visas, adjusting to American culture, academic planning, and other issues.For more information, please contact the IELP in Barnard Hall, Room 124, at 860-832-3376 or email@example.com

OnlineCCSU is the virtual classroom of Central Connecticut State University.Responding to the emerging trends of learning-on-demand, CCSU offers courses that traditionally were only available in the classroom.Online learning, also known as distance education, takes place using computer technology and the internet when the faculty and students are separated by distance, i.e., not in the same room. Within semester limits, OnlineCCSU offers asynchronous learning, which means the instructor and the students need not be in the same room at the same time or on the computer at the same time. This means students may sign on any time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Except where the faculty have set test dates, chat room sessions, etc., students do not need to sign on at the same time as other students or at the same time as the instructor.OnlineCCSU offers both graduate and undergraduate courses, and new courses are added every semester. CCSU faculty, who design and teach the courses, are at the core of this distinctive learner-centered program. Credits earned online are eligible for credit towards a degree.Full-time and part-time matriculated students (students who have formally applied and been admitted to CCSU) who already have a faculty advisor should continue to consult with that advisor regarding online courses.Non-matriculated students do not need a faculty advisor to register for an online course.For information on OnlineCCSU courses, visit www.ccsu.edu/onlineccsu
Pre-Health/Pre-MedicalA Pre-Health Professional Advisory Committee is available to assist students interested in preparing for careers in medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry, and related fields in the health sciences for which undergraduate training is required prior to admission to other institutions. The Pre-Health Professional Advisory Committee consists of faculty members from the departments of biology, biomolecular sciences, chemistry and biochemistry, physics, and psychology.Students interested in pre-health professional programs should consult Dr. Peter Osei, program coordinator for the health professions, Department of Biology, NC 339 (860-832-2657), and Dr. Cheryl Watson, chair of the Pre-Health Professional Advisory Committee, Department of Biomolecular Sciences, NC 344 (860-832-2649). Additional information is available at http://www.prehealth.ccsu.edu.Pre-LawStudents intending to apply to law school should consult with one of the pre-law advisors early in their academic careers, and no later than the junior year.Since law schools do not prescribe a particular academic program, students considering a career in law may select any undergraduate major. Information regarding academic planning and requirements for application to law school is available from the pre-law advisor, Robbin Smith, political science, and also from Kathleen Bantley, criminal justice; Katherine Hermes, history; Steven Horowitz, psychology, and Donna Sims, School of Business.
Students of Central Connecticut State University have the opportunity to enhance their education and improve their career options by studying abroad! The University offers a choice of CCSU-sponsored international programs: short-term Courses Abroad and semester- or year-long study at one of Central's Partner Universities overseas. In addition, study at an approved CCSU program can count in fulfillment of the International requirement for General Education.
Short-term programs, which are led by University professors, offer students a variety of credit-bearing courses in many locations around the world. These Courses Abroad are offered three times a year, during winter session, spring break, and summer session. Detailed information, including registration deadlines, program dates, cost, and sponsoring major departments, is available at the beginning of each academic year on the CIE website: http://www.ccsu.edu/cie.
Students may also elect to study abroad for a semester or a year at one of CCSU's Partner Universities located in Brazil, Chile, China, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Korea, Northern Cyprus, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. In general, students participating in one of these exchange programs pay tuition and fees to CCSU. Although variations in payment procedures occur, depending on the partner university, CCSU financial aid applies to most Exchange programs, and applications are due April 1. Courses earned at a partner university transfer as residency credits, and apply toward Central's graduation requirements.
To plan either type of study abroad program, contact the International Education Coordinator in the Center for International Education (CIE), Barnard Hall, Room 123, or call 860-832-2040. Specific program information for all international programs and dates of regularly scheduled information sessions can be found on the CIE website at: http://www.ccsu.edu/cie.

Singin' the Blues
Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi carry a musical torch across America as the Blues Brothers.
Gordon Mott
From the Print Edition:
The Blues Brothers, Jan/Feb 2008
(continued from page 6)
Exceeding the Speed Limit
The Blues Brothers and the "House of Blues Radio Hour" keep Dan Aykroyd busy a lot of the time, but after a hugely successful career in TV and the movies, those aren't the only things that keep him going today. This past year, he turned 55, and as he says, he finally reached the legal speed limit. Now he's looking for new challenges.
That's a little hard to fathom since his movie credits read like some of the greatest hits of the 1980s. First, there was The Blues Brothers, a $27 million film that has generated nearly a combined $200 million in gross sales from theaters and rentals. The movie was the peak of the Blues Brothers phenomenon, but it also fostered the cult following of the group over the years.
The 1980 film, in which Aykroyd played Elwood Blues, was followed several years later by Ghostbusters, with Bill Murray, who was one of his comedy partners on "Saturday Night Live." That film has grossed nearly $1 billion, including rentals, since its theatrical release. Of course, Ghostbusters II followed, and it was one of the more successful sequels in history, with a total gross since release that is approaching $500 million.
Aykroyd also had some other great roles. He was in Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom with Harrison Ford. And who can forget his turn in Driving Miss Daisy? Just last year, he appeared in the film I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, with Adam Sandler and Kevin James.
"I've turned down six movies this year," Aykroyd said in October, adding that he was really trying to focus on other things in life. He said he had some screenplays he'd like to get produced, but "you know, it's a new generation now."
"It's tough for the older guys to get in the door and pitch a concept. It really is," Aykroyd says, puffing on his vintage Cuban cigar. "So I kind of had to let go of the film business a few years ago. It's like a hockey player, or a football player. I wouldn't go ask Gordie Howe [to go] back on the rink now. My choice is to find other things to occupy myself. I'm not going to sit there and wait for the phone to ring. I'm not going to beg some agent for jobs. I'm not going to walk in with hat in hand."
One thing that does remain near the top of his to-do list is the House of Blues, the chain of music venues and restaurants he co-founded with entrepreneur Isaac Tigrett in 1992. Now that the company is owned by Live Nation, the world's largest concert promoter, Aykroyd remains involved as a "founding consultant" and helps with the opening of new facilities. "We've got nightclubs around the world. I help them get clubs open by doing the Charity Harley ride, radio, TV, print and then doing a show with the Blues Brothers. I don't know where they are going to find anyone else to do that."
A few years back, Aykroyd shared drinks one night at the House of Blues with Jean Paul Dejoria, who originated Paul Mitchell hair care products and helped bring Patrón Tequila to America. After trying the Mexican-produced spirit, Aykroyd discovered that Patrón was having problems getting distribution in Canada. So two years ago, Aykroyd found a distributor there and "we have Patron selling across Canada now." He also says the distribution company owned some wineries, and he ended up buying a piece of the distributor. He is now developing some wines the company suggested he put his name on.
Somewhere in the midst of all the activity, Akyroyd finds time for his family, his wife of 25 years, Donna Dixon, and his three girls, Danielle, 17, Belle, 14, and Stella, 9. "When I travel and they are off school, I bring them to the Blues Brothers' gigs," he says. "And, they all work. I mean, you're going to come to a gig, stay in this five-star hotel, fly first-class…you know what, you're working."

99.5% Uptime with RemoteView ATM... Best in the industry! As an example of our premium RemoteView ATM services, out of 109 calls for the month of February from a current customer, the average downtime for each ATM call was only 2:15. That is for the entire month! The end result? A 99.53% uptime and very happy customers!
Our RemoteView ATM team strives to ensure maximum ATM availability by almost immediately working on the ATM remotely (our average response time is under 20 minutes!) and if the call is not one of the 63% first time fixes, the call is promptly sent to a certified technician to go on-site and diagnose the problem.

Cook Security Group learns a little something about leadership & Branding from rock band, Pearl Jam. (TheBuildNetwork) Pearl Jam hasn't released a music video in 15 years. It doesn't do endorsements, commercials, or- heaven forbid- musicals. Yet its Ten Club is widely regarded as the most loyal and rabid superfan base in the music industry. Here's what a 23 year old grunge band can teach us all about building customer relationships that last.
Imagine your iTunes library as a business analogy... Radiohead represents the experimental, and sometimes head-scratching Google. U2 is the Nike-esque marketing powerhouse. The Beatles exemplify the game-changing Apple. OK, but who's our rock 'n' roll Zappos? That band who treats its fans (and employees) like family? Pearl Jam.
When it began back in 1991, Pearl Jam's Ten Club was an ordinary fan group that sent newsletters and exclusive singles... Read on...
Alarm Monitoring Update... 2G will cease to exist come the year 2017: In August of 2012, AT&T Inc. announced that the shutdown of its 2nd generation, or 2G wireless network will be complete by the end of 2016. This shutdown will not occur all at once. It will appear sporadically across the country and on January 1st, 2017, the 2G wireless network will cease to exist. Many wireless alarm systems were installed with a 2G compatible GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) device that can only communicate via the 2G wireless network. Therefore, when the 2G network ceases to exist on January 1st, 2017, these alarm systems will no longer be able to communicate alarm signals. If your system will be affected, we will discuss the next step in making sure your alarm system will be protected from the elimination of the 2G wireless network.

It is essential to understand that logical attacks (i.e. malware & black box attacks) can impact any ATM architectures across the industry if basic configurations are not employed.

All of the daycares my dd has been at give fifteen minutes to half an hour after close and then they call the police to come get the abandoned kid. Some will also call or drop a kid from the program if it is an ongoing problem. I think it would be a good idea for him to talk to the coordinator about dropping the kid from the program or putting some other penalty on the late parents. I think that it is completely reasonable for a parent to drop a kid off for a game or practice where the activity is specifically for the child, but leaving them there for 45 minutes after the game is abandonment and should be treated as such. They also require a certain amount of payment per minute after closing time.

Show!It's a cross between "Supernatural" and Touched By An Angel". Not as spooky as "Supernatural" but caring stories as "Touched By An Angel" was. I admire strong women roles as Jennifer Love Hewitt does by playing Melinda Gordon. She's married, but have you noticed she kept her last name. Awesome! There was one episode, although it may have been
season 2 ( I just watched
season 1 and
season 2 these last 3 weeks), where her husband said something like "I can't let You" and she says "Let Me". No man is going to tell her what to do. COOL! It's nice to see a husband stand by his wife. In the real world that wouldn't happen. Maybe more
shows like this and the males of our society may follow. I did say I have one complaint. This is a great entertaining
show, great actresses and actors, great stories, keeps me interested.

Lester and Sue Smith Breast Center
The Breast Center opened officially in the fall of 1999. Renamed the Lester and Sue Smith Breast Center in 2007, it is divided into two sections: the Breast Care Center and the Breast Research Program.
The mission of the center is to improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment of breast disease while providing top-tier education for future physicians and researchers.
Breast Care Center
The center offers comprehensive, multidisciplinary care and includes four sections:
- Breast imaging
- Breast cancer risk assessment
- Genetic testing and counseling, and prevention
- Evaluation and diagnostic clinic; and a breast cancer clinic
Clinical research is an integral component of the center, which offers nationwide and local-regional clinical studies in all aspects of breast health.
Breast Research Program
The research group of physicians and scientists is internationally recognized for its work. The faculty is appointed in a variety of different departments including medicine, pathology, molecular and cellular biology, psychiatry, radiology, and human genetics. Faculty in these and other crucial clinical and basic science departments function as associate members of the Smith Breast Center and interact with the Smith Breast Center on a daily basis.
Medical Education
Training of physicians, fellows, medical students, and other healthcare providers is also an integral function of the Smith Breast Center.
Generous resources are available to recruit 5-7 new faculty members over the next several years. Funds are also available for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and major equipment purchase, so that rapid growth of both the clinical and research programs is expected in the next few years.
Part of an NCI-Designated Cancer Center
The Smith Breast Center is a major component of the Dan L. Duncan Cancer Center at Baylor College of Medicine, which brings together research, patient care, education and outreach activities from BCM and its affiliated hospitals to expedite the fight against this devastating disease. The Duncan Cancer Center has been named a designated cancer center by the National Cancer Institute, a significant milestone that opens the doors for additional funding to combat cancer. It is one of two NCI designated centers in Houston.

This product was the exactly what I was expecting by just looking at the picture. They have a good quality and have a good picture, actually the picture is much better than I had anticipated. Dont forget that the screen is only seven inches so it is small, but great for small children.
I am very upset and I'm not sure if I'll ever shop with Overstock again. I ordered this product for my son for Christmas, and was guaranteed to recv it by the 23rd, I still haven't recvd it. I was offered a $$ refund for the inconvenience, I was too upset to finish my call but I would like that refund of $$.

It's easy to pray with meaning in Hebrew with the new interlinear format developed by ArtScroll to give you maximum comprehension with minimum effort.
How can this new format help you?
See for yourself!
As your eye sweeps over each line of print, it notes the precise English definition of every word printed just below the Hebrew. When you come to a word you do not understand, the English translation is right there � word by word, so you easily absorb the meaning and move on.
The secret of this remarkable innovation is the row of arrows between the English words. This visual device keeps your eye moving right to left, right along with the Hebrew, even though you are reading in English! This system is so effective that ArtScroll is having it patented.
The more you use the Interlinear editions, the more you learn to associate Hebrew and English terms, become aware of nuances of meaning, even discover grammatical patterns. The result is increased comprehension of Hebrew in every context.
Whatever your level of Hebrew knowledge, you can keep up with the service and participate in meaningful prayer.
The Interlinear Series brings you ArtScroll�s tradition of excellence in translation, a masterfully written commentary, clear, concise instructions and comprehensive Laws sections.

Division of Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine
The Division of Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine is involved in basic, clinical, and translational research, along with education and patient care.
In 2006, the Division of Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine was renamed from Section of Atherosclerosis and Lipoprotein Research. Christie M. Ballantyne, M.D., was named chief of the section in July 2006. The section was founded in 1970, and Antonio Gotto, M.D., was chief of the section from 1972-1997. Henry Pownall, Ph.D., was chief of the section from 1997-2006.
The goals of the division are to reduce pain, suffering and death from atherosclerosis and vascular disease. Strategies to achieve these goals include developing in vitro and animal models that emulate key aspects of the human metabolism and to use these models to test hypotheses about molecular mechanisms for lipid disorders, obesity, diabetes, and atherogenesis, and ultimately translating these insights into improvements in diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of vascular disease in man. Both graduate and post-graduate education is also important to translate new therapies into clinical practice.
The divison's research, which focuses on multiple aspects of the metabolic syndrome including lipid disorders, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease, is conducted through work within two centers, a core laboratory, and individual investigator-initiated programs.
- Behavioral Medicine Research Center
- Center for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention
- Maria and Alando J. Ballantyne, MD, Atherosclerosis Clinical Research Laboratory
Individual investigator-initiated programs in this section conduct a broad spectrum of basic research that include atherosclerosis imaging; proteomics; HDL production, remodeling and uptake, and lipoprotein structure; mouse models of atherosclerosis and inflammation; adipocyte signaling; and, energy transport in cellular models of insulin sensitive tissues.
The Division of Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine provides two important training programs:
- The Atherosclerosis and Vascular Biology Research Training Program
- The Lipid and Atherosclerosis Training Program
The division also holds a weekly journal club, which is led by Vijay Nambi, M.D., where current topics of interest are presented by students, faculty and fellows.
Christie M. Ballantyne, M.D., is involved in continuing medical education and is the editorial director for the nationally recognized and award-winning web site www.LipidsOnline.org which provides educational resources in atherosclerosis.
The Division of Atherosclerosis and Vascular Medicine offers outstanding healthcare for cardiovascular conditions and is nationally recognized for providing consultation services for lipids and atherosclerosis in the Center for Cardiovascular Disease Prevention's:
Lipid Metabolism and Atherosclerosis Clinic
Members of the division also treat patients in the following hospitals:

Womens Pants - Workout Yoga Pilates ProModal Organic Sustainable
4-rth Women's Pants
Made & designed in Los Angeles CA, 4-rth's Classic Yoga Pant feels like a 2nd skin, you simply won't remember to take them off! They are made from organic ProModal which is derived from Eucalyptus and Birch Tree (from sustainable farms). These natural eco-friendly fibers are celluslosic in structure making them incredibly skin-friendly and perfect for regulating the body climate. This fabric is truly softer & smoother than cotton and wicks 50% more moisture. All attention in this pant was put into the cut and fit. They are so incredibly well-shaped that there is no need for uncomfortable or tight elastic bands that will cut into your skin. You could wear these all day, straight from your morning run to your afternoon pilates session and all errands in between.
We have had rave reviews in particular from Yoga Instructors as this fabric has natural stretch & memory characteristics so they look as good as they feel throughout the day. Any form of sport, exercise, stretching or gym activity will be welcome territory for these classic pants. Fold or rollover waist is in Slate - the color that ties the new women's line together.

Nelson Cruz Looks Lower
Nelson Cruz tied a major league record by hitting homers in each of the first four Texas Rangers game of the season. The Texas outfielder showed impressive power during the three previous seasons, slugging .565 during the period. Nelson concentrated his power in the upper half of the strike zone:
Not surprisingly, pitchers tried to work him down and away:
Pitcher probably don't get the ball down as much as they'd like against Nelson, but you can see the intent in the heat map.
In 2011, they tried the same thing:
So far, they are doing a very good job of working Nelson down. What they didn't count on was Cruz making an adjustment:
Instead of waiting to crush a high pitch, Nelson went down and got the low pitches. The pitchers were following their scouting report and got burned. It may be that Nelson just got lucky. It's early in the season and anything can happen in a few at bats. It would make sense, however, for Cruz to learn to hit where the pitchers are working, so it may be time for the scouting report to change.

The Long, Boring Bio
I was born in New York City and grew up in Connecticut. I majored in English at the University of Pennsylvania and graduated from the Circle in the Square Professional Workshop in New York. My first book, Why I'm Like This, came out in 2002 and was a Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers pick and a BookSense bestseller.
My essays have been published on The New York Times Op-Ed page and the opinion page of The Philadelphia Inquirer, as well as in The Palm Beach Post and The Minnesota Star-Tribune. My work has also appeared in New York magazine, Self, Health, the now defunct Rosie, the now defunct Organic Style (worrisome trend here?—you decide), the journals Tin House and McSweeney's, and has been posted on the internet at Playboy.com, Amused.com, and TheHuffingtonPost.com. I can also be heard reading my work on the CDs Writer's Block Party and Mirth of a Nation.

I am the co-writer, with director John Walsh, of the feature film Pipe Dream, starring Mary-Louise Parker and the very dreamy Martin Donovan. I am also in it, playing Charlotte.
My work is included in the following anthologies: More Mirth of a Nation; The Best Contemporary Humor; 101 Damnations; Walk Softly and Carry a Great Lipstick; Sleepaway; The Worst Noel; and The Modern Jewish Girl's Guide to Guilt.
As a solo performer and comedienne, I have appeared with theater companies and in clubs throughout New York City. My comic songs and monologues have been heard on WBAI, presuming people were listening at the time, and I performed for seven years with the What I Like About Jew music series. When that broke up (a sad, sad day), I continued on as a guest star of the absurdly talented Sean Altman's Jewmongous, touring to sold-out clubs on both east and west coasts, including two deeply upsetting performances in L.A. For two lovely years I co-starred in a monthly show with actress/writer/CBS Sunday Morning essayist/radio host extraordinaire Nancy Giles, called The New Jack Paar Show at the West Bank Café. Jack didn't know about it.
As an actress, I starred in Rachel Reichman's film Work, was featured in John Walsh's Ed's Next Move, and in the aforementioned Pipe Dream. I have appeared in many off and off-off Broadway productions and in some commercials. Sports fans may remember me as the nut who stalked Peter Gammons on ESPN. I have never appeared on Law & Order.
Finally (thank God), I co-starred in writer/director Madeleine Olnek's award-winning short film Hold Up which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and has appeared in about thirty national and international festivals.
Oh, and I am married, have two children, and no pets, although I like dogs. I dreamed we had a cat the other night and woke up very depressed.

An addendum discloses for the first time the names of 156 Apple suppliers
Apple's (AAPL) sixth annual "supplier responsibility" report is sure to be closely read by both critics and competitors.
For one thing an addendum to the report lists for the first time the names of Apple's major subcontractors -- 156 companies, many in the Far East, representing 97% of the company's supply chain. The list is available here for anyone to read.
For another, the report enumerates the violations discovered -- and Apple's responses -- in the company's 2011 audit of those suppliers. Although most electronics manufacturers rely on the same labor force to make their products, Apple tends to get singled for criticism when abuses come to light.
The report issued this week is surprisingly frank about the nature of those abuses. In its audit, Apple discovered (I quote):
Apple separately listed what it called "core violations" of labor and human rights:
Although most of Apple's suppliers were discovered to be in violation of one rule or another -- nearly 70%, for example, failed to pay proper overtime -- Apple severed relations with only one of them: an unnamed "repeat offender." There was a second repeat offender, but Apple claims to be "correcting" its practices.
The audit is unlikely to satisfy critics like monologist Mike Daisey -- who reports that suppliers are routinely forewarned of Apple's inspections in time to hide their underage workers -- but the fact remains that the company is the only American electronics manufacturer we know of that bothers to conduct these yearly checks.
UPDATE: A copy of CEO Tim Cook's letter to the staff addressing the contents of the Supplier Responsibility Report has surfaced through the French site MacGeneration. Cook announces that Apple has joined the Fair Labor Association and says, among other things,
"Thanks to our supplier responsibility program, we've seen dramatic improvements in hiring practices by our suppliers. To prevent the use of underage labor, our team interviews workers, checks employment records and audits the age verification systems our suppliers use. These efforts have been very successful and, as a result, cases of underage labor were down sharply from last year. We found no underage workers at our final assembly suppliers, and we will not rest until the number is zero everywhere."
Full text here.
UPDATE 2: This American Life, which aired an excerpted version last week of The Agony and Ecstasy of Steve Jobs, Mike Daisey's one-man show about working conditions in Apple's supply chain, asked Daisey to comment on Apple's latest progress report. Here's what he had to say:
Apple has released a list of its suppliers, but it still hides the companies it audited with anonymity. This makes it impossible to learn anything new about what is going on in Apple's supply chain, to verify anything, or hold anyone responsible. The FLA will audit a tiny percentage of Apple's factories, and also won't make public which factories they audit.
If Apple would spend less energy finessing its public image, and instead apply its efforts to real transparency and accountability, it could be a true leader for the electronics industry. Apple today is still saying what it said yesterday: trust us, we know best, there's nothing to worry about. They have not earned the trust they are asking for.

HTC has unveiled the HTC Titan II, the company's first Windows Phone to run on a 4G LTE network, which is being showcased at the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
The HTC Titan II comes equipped with a 4.7-inch super LCD capacitive touchscreen display, and offers quick and easy access to the latest movies and TV shows via HTC Watch and on-the-go gaming with Xbox LIVE, the vendor said.
With advanced imaging technology, the HTC Titan II features a 16-megapixel camera with a wide-angle lens, autofocus, dual LED flash, red eye reduction, image stabilization, a backside-illuminated sensor and a physical camera button. The model delivers a number of features that HTC has developed to help consumers capture photos in a variety of conditions; for instance, panoramic shot for landscapes and burst shot for action photography. The smartphone also enables 720p HD video recording with the rear-facing camera, as well as on-the-go video chat over Wi-Fi with its 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera.
The HTC Titan II is expected to become available exclusively from AT&T in the US in the coming months.

Authentic Mexican – Husband and I went to Benito's for lunch one (late) afternoon. It was probably around 4 p.m., so the place was empty. We were greeted warmly by a gentleman who took our drink order and the waitress who took our food order was very polite. Warm corn tortillas and pico de gallo were immediately brought to the table. I saw chips and salsa listed on the menu and seeing as how they weren't automatically brought to the table like most Mexican restaurants, I ordered them, but I'm not sure if that's the norm. Both the pico and the salsa were blazing hot! I can usually withstand a good bit of heat, but these were quite spicy. They could have dialed back the heat just a bit, but both the pico and salsa were very good. Next came a small bowl of what I assume was tortilla soup. It was a thin, mild tomato soup. Nothing outstanding about it, but it was decent with the warm tortillas. I ordered the taco combo, which included a shredded beef, ground beef and "Mexican style" soft taco. Somehow I received 2 shredded beef tacos rather than a ground beef one, but as soon as I ate one of them, I didn't mind at all! The "Mexican style" taco was what I would describe as Mexican beef stew wrapped in a flour tortilla. Shredded beef with tomatoes and chunks of potato with a little of the jus or gravy to keep it moist. The other two tacos were topped with a spicy tomatillo salsa and fresh cilantro. The beef was very tender and juicy. I would guess they braise the meat, lending a wonderful flavor. The rice and beans were pretty standard. I can't comment on my husband's entree, as he ate everything before I could try it! Overall, good food that seems close to authentic Mexican. I plan to go back and try the mole.

Anquan Boldin is not exactly a guy who draws attention to himself. He's the polar opposite of your stereotypical NFL wideout diva. The man blends in so well, he's practically human camouflage.
Take the way he celebrated — if that's the word — his 32nd birthday this week.
"Do anything fun?" he was asked the next day after practice.
"No, just worked [here]," he said.
"OK, how 'bout after you got home? Do anything fun with the family?"
"No," he said. "We just hung out at the house."
Wow. Way to cut loose, Q.
Still, as the Ravens get set to play the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, it's clear low-key works well for the 10-year veteran.
Sure, in his third season with the Ravens, he's heard the knocks, too — he's not a No. 1 wide receiver, he's too slow, he's too old and so on.
To hear the critics, you'd think the guy would lose in the 40-yard dash to Cee Lo Green. Or that he's ready to check into Oak Crest retirement community at any moment.
Then he goes out and puts up a game like he had in the Ravens' 23-16 win over the Cleveland Browns last week — nine catches for 131 yards, including eight receptions for 125 yards in the second half.
And suddenly the critics look at the highlight reel and stop yapping — at least for a while.
"He stepped up big time," Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco said of Boldin's big night. "He played physically and went up and got some tough, contested catches and really used his body. He was huge for us in that game."
That's the thing about Boldin. His coaches and teammates can't stop heaping praise on him. It's as if he has his own PR firm in the locker room and the Castle offices.
The Ravens talk about his leadership, his smarts, his toughness. They talk about the precise routes he runs. They talk about the clutch catches he makes with those big, strong hands.
They talk about the way he huddles on the sideline during games with fellow wideouts Torrey Smith and Jacoby Jones, explaining how to exploit a defense, drawing it up on his hand the way he used to do as a kid back in Pahokee, Fla.
And when you point out that Boldin sometimes seems overlooked or underappreciated by fans and the media, the other Ravens seem mystified.
"I know the opponents don't overlook him," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. "He's a star, no doubt."
On the other hand, in keeping with his persona, Boldin is not exactly broken up to hear that he's below the radar of some outside the game.
"I don't care," he said. "I mean, for me, it's more than about getting credit or getting praise. I'm here for one reason, and that's to win a championship. And for me, it's whatever it takes.

|Joe's Stone Crab, Miami
The Most Iconic Restaurants in 15 U.S. Cities
38 comments :
Once again Zagat misses the mark, by their own definition! Get some freakin' new food writers on your staff, or stop calling yourself a Restaurant Ratings publication. What a joke! You list the Salt Lick in Driftwood, Texas. In what world does a stoplight, in the middle of nowhere, with a poulation of under 2,500 constitue a "City". In fact, Driftwood is 30 miles from the closest "city," Austin. And the only BBQ awards it has ever won were Best of... in Austin! This exemplifies the lack of your staff's knowledge on the subjects that you've been covering for the past couple of years. It just keeps getting worse. Done with Zagat!ReplyDeleteReplies
Have you ever eaten there? We are from Miami and we think it is fantastic and so worth the visit!Delete
I'm not the original poster. I have eaten at Salt Lick. While it may be iconic and I'll admit it's an experience for out-of-towners, it's not the best BBQ. I'd take Franklin's in Austin any day if you can get in. But, for the real deal, Kreuz Market and Smitty's in Lockhart or Cooper's in Llano is where I would send people.Delete
- Steve DavisWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 5:38:00 PM EDT
To anonymous (from Miami): the poster who said go to Lockhart or Llano for better Texas 'que, is right on the money. I would add the towns of Taylor, Elgin and LaGrange to that elite list of destinations which are almost as close to Austin as Driftwood (where Salt Lick is). Salt Lick is ok, but don't think for a minute that it's the best in Texas, or even the Austin area for that matter! By the way, Lockhart was designated by the Texas legislature as "BBQ Capitol of Texas", and since Texas has the BEST BBQ in the world, I guess Lockhart would be BBQ capitol of the world!Delete
The Salt Lick is not real Texas BBQ, beginning with the sauce. Previous poster is spot on.Delete
- Steve DavisWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 6:31:00 PM EDT
Right. Salt Lick has an open pit and they baste with a wet sauce. Central Texas tradition calls for a closed pit and dry rub. In Texas when they dish up your meat, they better not pour sauce on--if they insist on giving sauce, then serve it on the side or face the wrath of the customer.Delete
Louie Muellers in Taylor, TX. Best BBQ in Texas and a James Beard Award on the wall. I am a food snob and a Texan. It is true that Lockhart is The BBQ Capitol but give Louie a try. When the flag is out front, its time to eat. Go early because they run out of goodies every day.Delete
we are at the Atlanta. airport now heading to San Antonio for the weekend. Any great ideas for restaurants? We will definitely go to Llano as we are always looking for the best Texas BBQ. what about Texas Pride BBQDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.Delete
You could not be more wrong. The Salt Lick .. there is not even a close second as an iconic Austin restaurant. All you can eat, by the way - AND they let you take home enough leftovers to eat for three more days at home .. for about $12 bucks. Amazing and set on several square miles of land .. be sure to drive down to the creek .. if you just pop into and out of the main restaurant, then you missed half the experience.Delete
By the way, a lot of folks from Lockhart posting here! (If one wants to split hairs, actually the best BBQ in the world is Hick's Barbecue, a roadside stand in Northport, Alabama (in Tuscaloosa county). But this isn't about Northport, or Lockhart, but Austin.Delete
- Steve DavisMonday, April 8, 2013 at 11:26:00 PM EDT
The premise of Zagat's article was that someone just passing thru Austin with limited time to spend, should go to Driftwood to eat at Salt Lick. Depending on traffic, that could easily be a 2 hr. round trip for dinner.Delete
We may disagree on how good Salt Lick is or isn't, but it's absurd for Zagat to send readers to a little town 35 miles from downtown Austin when time is of the essence. Hell, if you got 2 hrs. winshield time time to kill, I say the BBQ is better in Lockhart (and I'm not from there or anywhere close).
So when you say this (the article) is not about Lockhart, but Austin, apparently it wasn't about Austin after all. It shouldn't be about Driftwood either. Surely, Zagat could have found a restuarant (regardless of type of food) in Austin that didn't require a long commute. It's stupid of Zagat to devise this premise about time being short, then suggest a 2 hr. round trip commute.
Hello??? Ever hear of Seattle? Ever hear of Canlis? Or dozensReplyDelete
of other wonderful and varied fine restaurants in the Northwest?
We are not a wasteland and everyone but Zagat seems to know that!Replies
My guess is you're the annoying one in your group.Delete
I really "love" this "article" but would you "please" stop using the "damned" quotes? They indicate a "certain" lack of "writing" skills.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yet another zagat article with the same damn cities...Austin ranks behind Houston and Dallas as a food city, yet keeps getting mention in every article.ReplyDeleteReplies
I've enjoyed many great restaurants in Dallas and Houston and have lived in both cities. But, neither has a food scene like Austin. They are completely different.Delete
Right, Houston's is far better than either of them!Delete
- Steve DavisWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 5:52:00 PM EDT
Exactly! Houston is a primo food town with its fusion of Mexican and Cajun influence to go along with Gulf Coast, East & Central Texas cuisines. Then there's the international side of Houston. Not many cities have a better food scene than Houston, but you'd never know it reading Zagat.Delete
I completely agree with the distracting "quotes". How annoying!!! I had to skim the paragraph to get the gist of what the author was trying to write. How stupid.ReplyDelete
The Atlanta Colonnade? Definitely your father's Oldsmobile. Kind of like characrterizing PoFolks restaurantd as iconic. Similar food, clientelle, ambience. Where are Nick and Nina? What have you done to Zagat? Do any of your editors cook? Yegads, what mishmash!ReplyDelete
Victoria and Alberts is the absolute best out of this world!!!ReplyDelete
Galatoire's is certainly an classic and interesting experience, but it is not at all representative of New Orleans' dining scene and overall atmosphere. While appreciable for what it is, the food and atmosphere are pleasing only in a nostalgic sense.ReplyDeleteReplies
- Steve DavisWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 6:15:00 PM EDT
Nathaniel: 3 come to my mind: Brennan's, Court of Two Sisters and my favorite, Tujaques. Which ones am I missing?Delete
- Steve DavisWednesday, April 3, 2013 at 5:12:00 PM EDT
When I read that restaurants in 15 cities were featured, I figured Zagat would finally mention Houston. Zagat seldom writes about Houston, the nation's 4th largest, an international city with great restaurants.ReplyDelete
Instead, they selected Salt Lick BBQ in the "Austin area". While a very good BBQ joint, that selection makes no sense given their premise that time is short, "a 36 hour business trip or quick getaway".
At lunch time the travel time from downtown Austin to Driftwood is 35 minutes at best. Dinner time it would be at least 45 minutes and more likely an hour considering Austin's notorious traffic commute time.
So Zagat's brilliant staff writers would have you consider a 1-2 hr. round trip when you are in Austin for a quick business trip? And all the while ignoring Houston--what are we, chopped liver?Replies
The selection of the Salt Lick is actually quite impressive .. they are thinking outside of the box of literal city limits (which are defined differently everywhere .. The Salt Lick is closer to the heart of Austin than the Empire State Building is to most of NYC). The Salt Lick is an Austin restaurant because that is its clientele .. the drive through the authentic Austin country side is part of the experience that makes the Salt Lick "iconic".Delete
- Steve DavisTuesday, April 9, 2013 at 12:09:00 AM EDT
I don't think I have ever heard Austin and NYC mentioned in the same sentence in terms of how long it takes you to get around. Let's see, NYC has 10X the population of Austin.Delete
The premise of Zagat's article was: if you're in a city for the first time, and have a limited amount of time to spend there. That said, why would anyone opt to drive a couple hours round trip for dinner, regardless of how beautiful the drive is?
Really the most iconic restaurant for New York City is the Four Seasons? I have a feeling the writer was put up there for the night and never left the hotel.ReplyDeleteReplies
The Four Season Restaurant pre dates the Hotel in New York. Definetely icon of New York opened in 1959, it was the first restaurant in New York to have a seasonal menu. The dinning rooms are classic and declaired by New York a landmark under preservation status. I just had lunch and was once again pleased that it had not slipped. The food and service are top notch.Delete
My thoughts are prayers are with Austin, as EVERY other restaurant in town must have been closed down. I have traveled far and wide around our great state and Salt Lick is by far the worst abhorrent abomination of "BBQ" I have ever tasted! They cook their defiled meats in OVENS and then place them on a smoke pit (seen above) for "smoke flavor". An angel looses it's wings everytime someone says Salt Lick is "good". Please people for all that is meaty and holy go eat REAL BBQ at somewhere like Snow's, Louie Mueller's, Cooper's, Kruez Market, or Luling City Market.ReplyDeleteReplies
This comment has been removed by the author.Delete
- Steve DavisMonday, April 8, 2013 at 11:35:00 PM EDT
No argument from me that Snow's, Louie Mueller's, Kruez or Luling have better Texas 'que than Salt Lick. If I'm near Driftwood then I'll go to Salt Lick. But I wouldn't drive past of these that are mentioned to get to Salt Lick!Delete
I think Zagat did well,The Old Ebbitt Grill was very nice,excellent crab cakes Iconic,The Swan Oyster Bar ,Iconic,the Four Seasons sort of still there,Joe's Stone Crab/,Spago's Galatoires have been to all.Each had there special moment.Never forget sampling the finest wines and meeting movie stars at Spagos,wine list was excellent food very good and for me the staff were brilliant.The Old Ebbitt had very good crab cakes not the best but the wine list and service was excellent.The Swan Oyster Bar when I was there was looked after by the the sons? or grandsons? service good ,quality, excellent food,decor and menu dated BUT that's why it is iconic,.Joes Stone Crab watching the guys in the kitchen prepare the claws amazing their skillReplyDelete
Although no one will read this..ReplyDelete
One needs to read between the lines of the restaurants Zagat has chosen for this list. These are "iconic" restaurants that are great examples that eximplify an individual city's dining experience.
Is there better BBQ in Texas than the Salt Lick? Of course. Are there better eats in Miami than Joe's? Most assuridly. Yet these restaurants are great at what they do and are wonderful examples of Austin and Miami dining, especially if you are visiting that city for the first time.
Take a breath people..
- Steve DavisMonday, April 8, 2013 at 11:43:00 PM EDT
But with regards to Austin, why would Zagat throw out the time-is-short-scenario, and then say a 2 hr. drive makes sense??ReplyDelete
No Seattle????ReplyDelete
