Current Research and Scholarly Interests
Reimer Lab interests
A primary interest of our lab is to understand how nerve cells make and recycle neurotransmitters, the small molecules that they use to communicate with each other. In better defining these processes we hope to achieve our long-term goal of identifying novel sites for treatment of diseases such as epilepsy and Parkinson Disease. In our studies on neurotransmitter metabolism we have focused our efforts on transporters, a functional class of proteins that move neurotransmitters and other small molecules across membranes in cells. Transporters have many characteristics that make them excellent pharmacological targets, and not surprisingly some of the most effective treatments for neuropsychiatric disorders are directed at transporters. We are specifically focusing on two groups of transporters vesicular neurotransmitter transporters that package neurotransmitters into vesicles for release, and glutamine transporters that shuttle glutamine, a precursor for two major neurotransmitters glutamate and GABA, to neurons from glia, the supporting cells that surround them. We are pursuing these goals through molecular and biochemical studies, and, in collaboration with the Huguenard and Prince labs, through physiological and biosensor based imaging studies to better understand how pharmacological targeting of these molecules will influence neurological disorders.
A second interest of our lab is to define mechanism underlying the pathology of lysosomal storage disorders. Lysosomes are membrane bound acidic intracellular organelles filled with hydrolytic enzymes that normally function as recycling centers within cells by breaking down damaged cellular macromolecules. Several degenerative diseases designated as lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are associated with the accumulation of material within lysosomes. Tay-Sachs disease, Neimann-Pick disease and Gaucher disease are some of the more common LSDs. For reasons that remain incompletely understood, these diseases often affect the nervous system out of proportion to other organs. As a model for LSDs we are studying the lysosomal free sialic acid storage disorders. These diseases are the result of a defect in transport of sialic acid across lysosomal membranes and are associated with mutations in the gene encoding the sialic acid transporter sialin. We are using molecular, genetic and biochemical approaches to better define the normal function of sialin and to determine how loss of sialin function leads to neurodevelopmental defects and neurodegeneration associated with the lysosomal free sialic acid storage disorders.

America's support for strong environmental protection does not translate into strong support for heavy-handed federal regulation. CEI's just released National Environmental Survey demonstrates that Americans want more state and local control of environmental policymaking, and are open to non-regulatory approaches.
"Americans are unquestionably pro-environment," commented Jonathan H. Adler, CEI senior director of environmental policy. "But they are also suspicious of the extensive, command-and-control environmental bureaucracy headquartered in Washington, DC. Indeed, most Americans are both pro-environment and anti-federal regulation." Adler noted that the survey findings were quite similar to those from the polling company's 1996 national survey on environmental policy.
Some of the poll's key findings include the following:
The survey of 1,000 randomly selected registered voters nationwide was administered by telephone December 8-11, 1998. It has a margin of error or +/- 3.1 % at the 95 percent confidence level.

Campaign poster for Victor Berger (ca. 1918)
For a Speedy, General and Lasting Peace, Tax the Profiteers...
Victor Berger (1860-1929) studied at universities in Budapest and Vienna, then emigrated in 1878 to the United States and settled in Milwaukee. After 1892 he devoted himself to Socialist politics and journalism, and with Eugene V. Debs was instrumental in the creation of the American Socialist party. In 1910, his leadership helped the Socialists win control of Milwaukee government, which they retained for many years. Berger was elected the first Socialist member of Congress (1911 to 1913), and was re-elected in 1918, when this poster was made. Although Congress excluded him on grounds of sedition, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed this decision in 1921 and he was allowed to take his seat when reelected in 1922. Again elected in 1924 and 1926, he was ultimately defeated in 1928.

Jennifer Orr, 37, Jacob Lee Bowman, 19, and Richard Allen Shockley, 19, were all arrested on three separate charges of unlawful breaking and entering vehicles, all felonies, according to Jacksonville police Chief Tommy Thompson.
Thompson said that on Tuesday evening officers received reports that belongings were missing from several vehicles on the southwest side of Jacksonville near the high school. According to the chief, the suspects had taken items from unlocked vehicles and there were no reports of vehicle damage.
Sheriff Larry Amerson said Wednesday that deputies assisted in the arrest of the three suspects.
According to the sheriff, one of the victims told police that he heard a knock at the door of his residence on James Hopkins Road. When he opened the door he saw the two male suspects standing by the trunk of his vehicle, which had been opened.
Amerson said the victim began chasing the men as a white SUV, driven by Orr, drove onto his property. The sheriff said that the victim recognized Orr and also saw some of his belongings in her vehicle.
Thompson said that the victim fired a pistol twice in the air and the suspects left his residence. The sound of the pistol attracted nearby Jacksonville police officers who had been interviewing other victims, and the victim gave police a description of the vehicle.
Thompson said that police stopped the SUV on Alexandria-Jacksonville Road and deputies with the Sheriff's Office located the two male suspects at nearby residences.
Thompson said Wednesday that police were continuing to investigate the incidents. A small amount of the stolen property had been found as of Wednesday morning, the Chief said.
Thompson said Orr, Bowman and Shockley were in the Jacksonville City Jail with no bond or court dates set as of Wednesday morning.

Rabbis in Spiritual Crisis: Dr. Paul Shrell-Fox
This talk is mostly in Hebrew and the screens which show the translation are not visible, but the intro is worth watching for English speakers and for those who speak Hebrew the whole talk is worth listening to as it addresses an important issue in Judaism.
All talks from the conference are here
Update: 30-Jul pm
It is a surprising study similar to Linda LaScola and Dan Dennett's on the Christian clergy. We think it is important. We are trying to get the English version with the simultaneous translation.

I worked at Modern Woodmen as a contractor for less than a year
Pros – --Great company values
--Extra (fraternal) benefits
--Gives back to the communities
--Unlimited potential
--Set your own schedule, be your own boss!
Cons – Even though Modern Woodmen is a great company with a long track record, it is insurance first, investments later. In other words, you may be able to take on the function of an advisor and sell securities, but the insurance will always come first (that's how benefits, contracting, etc are determined). If you're an insurance salesman, Modern Woodmen's insurance is pretty competitive. But if you want to be a little more "rounded" or want to focus on financial planning and/or advisory services, you may want to consider looking elsewhere.
Advice to Senior Management – Come up with a compensation/contract structure that allows financial planners/advisors to flourish a little more. You've got an awesome company, but the advisory/planning services aren't on par with brokerage/advisor firms.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

DEERFIELD BEACH — The Florida Highway Patrol says a fourth person has died, days after a sports utility vehicle landed in a South Florida lake following a crash on Interstate 95.
Troopers say 20-year-old Sandalie Jean-Baptiste died Sunday night.
Three others pulled from the vehicle after Wednesday's crash also died.
It was not immediately clear what caused the crash, which involved three vehicles. The SUV plowed through a fence and plunged into the lake.
The Miami Herald reports the family was on their way home from the mall where they had been shopping for school supplies.
Students from Blanche Ely High School held a candlelight vigil Sunday in honor to honor two of the victims who attended the school.

Sensitive, soulful, emotionally wounded rock crooner John Mayer. His little black book reads like a tabloid best-dressed list yet he can't find that one woman to accept him for who he really is inside. He's misunderstood, he's a tortured artist and he just wants to be loved. Problem is, his mouth keeps getting in the way. And that's just one of the reasons John Meyer is a ridiculous man. Here are 14 more.
Because he attended the Grammy's dressed in a Willy Wonka costume.
Because he chunks the deuce in selfies.
Because he truly believes he's achieved the level of coolness where donning a banana hammock makes him appear "ironic."
Because he compares life to a box of Crayola crayons.
Because it's not OK that Taylor Swift reportedly wrote the song "Dear John" about their failed relationship, but it is totally OK to put his ex-girlfriends on blast in interviews. Got it.
Because the demands on his dressing room rider reveal his struggle to reconcile his persona as sophisticated artist ("One bottle of good quality French or Italian wine—minimum $30 per bottle") and overgrown, preppy suburban kid. ("Count Chocula").
Because he still has a MySpace page.
Because we had to bear witness to his 2011 meltdown during which he fled the evil temptations of Twitter in Los Angeles for the serenity of a log cabin in Montana. He also wore this hat.
Because there's a Facebook page devoted to that hat.
Because his musical collaboration with Demi Lovato and love for Miley Cyrus songs proves there's a tween girl inside of him just begging to be driven to the mall.
Because he made this comment about interracial dating.
Because his attempts to be quirky (remember that bear suit?) just make him seem like a less cool version of James Franco.
Because he's allegedly a fan of golden showers (Not that there's anything wrong with that).
Because he's the only man who can still come off like a jerk when admitting that he was a jerk.

"List price" is the suggested retail price provided to us by our vendors. We make no representation that a substantial number of these products have been sold or offered for sale at the list price. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Since we sell products on a national basis, it is not possible to know if our merchandise is sold at list price in any particular location or at any particular time. "You Save" reflects the difference between our price and the vendor provided list price shown on our sites. Since the list price may be different than the actual retail prices in your area, you may not actually realize a savings of this amount.
Manufacturers sometimes ask that retailers not display a price if it drops below a certain amount. The "Click here to see Lowest Price" message indicates that the price of the item is so low that the manufacturer requested that it not be advertised (that is, displayed). In a brick-and-mortar store, you would probably have to ask a salesperson what the price of the product is. At eCOST, by clicking on "Click here to see Lowest Price" you are essentially asking to see the price, at which point we show it to you.

Plzeňský Prazdroj Had a Record-Breaking Export in 2012
29 January 2013
Plzeň, January 25, 2013 – Plzeňský Prazdroj exported 920 000 hectolitres of beer in 2012; it represents an increase of almost 3% and exceeds 900 000 hl for the first time in history. The record sales abroad were positively influenced by higher demand for Pilsner Urquell in Asian countries and in the United Kingdom. In the domestic market, the sales went up in the off-trade segment, benefiting from innovations such as convenient packaging or mixed beer-based drinks. The continuing outflow of consumers from restaurants and bars affected the overall domestic sales, reaching over 6.8 million hl. With licenced production of 2.10 million hl, Plzeňský Prazdroj sold in total almost 9.9 million hl of beer, matching last year's performance.
"Domestic market saw recovery mainly through innovations in the portfolio. However, domestic consumption has been impacted by continuous declining trends in the on-trade, resulting from economic and government austerities. Further development of the Czech beer market will be influenced by the recent VAT increase and subsequent shopping decisions made by consumers. We will continue to build our unique Czech beer culture by offering high quality products to satisfy our consumers' demands, bringing great shopping experiences when purchasing our beer in retail and creating pleasant and favourable environments in designed concepts of bars and restaurants across the Czech Republic," says Doug Brodman, CEO of Plzeňský Prazdroj.
New record in export charts
Despite the continually challenging economic situation in many export markets, the demand for beer brands of Plzeňský Prazdroj in 2012 grew to a new historical record. Export of Pilsner Urquell to more than 50 countries went up by 3% compared to last year. Marketing activities during the whole year and successful presentation of the Pilsner Urquell brand during the Olympic Games in London raised sales in the United Kingdom by more than 20%. Consumers in South Korea, Japan, Vietnam and Taiwan showed higher interest in Pilsner Urquell, so the total export of this lager in the Asian region grew by more than 50%.
Increase in off-trade benefited from innovations
In the domestic market, sales in off-trade increased by a single digit percentage, mainly through successful innovations such as mixed beer-based drinks and convenient packaging like cans and PET bottles. This partially compensated for the continually declining trend in the on-trade segment. In 2012, Plzeňský Prazdroj introduced numbers of new products, such as mixed beers with fruit juices Gambrinus Lime & Elderberry and Gambrinus Sharp lemon, a wheat beer with peal of orange and coriander called Fénix, Frisco Blackcurrant or Birell Lime & Raspberry flavour and offered beer brands in convenient packaging. In addition, Plzensky Prazdroj developed, in close cooperation with partner Interspar, a new concept of Beer world, which sets new standards for a beer shopping experience and match the uniqueness of the beer category's position in the Czech Republic. In the on-trade segment, the company introduced our new brands and continued to offer unfiltered beer in a broader number of pubs.
Notes for editors
- With total sales of almost 9.9 million hectolitres in 2012 (including licenced production abroad) and exports to more than 50 countries around the world, Plzeňský Prazdroj is a major beer producer in the region and the largest exporter of Czech beer.
- Plzeňský Prazdroj, a.s. is a member of SABMiller plc. Pilsner Urquell is the international flagship of the SABMiller brand portfolio.
- SABMiller plc is one of the world's largest brewers, with brewing interests or distribution agreements in over 60 countries across six continents.

When nature adapts: Pests thriving on Monsanto GMO corn
Scott Olson/Getty Images
While controversy and opinions continue to swirl around the hot-button topic of genetically modified produce, a new report from biotech firm Monsanto sounds like the premise of a Stephen King story. According to RT.com, pests known as the western corn rootworm have not only been surviving but thriving on corn genetically modified to kill the bugs. A 2010 sample showed that the worms had an elevenfold survival rate compared to a control population, eight times more than the previous year. They pests have also hatched earlier, "about a month ahead of schedule," said Mike Gray, professor of entomology at University of Illinois, to Naturalnews.com.
"This is not something that is a surprise... but it is something that needs to be addressed," said Joseph Spencer, another entomologist at University of Illinois, to Reuters. Spencer is one of 22 academic corn experts who sent a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency with warnings regarding the failure of the genetic modifications at protecting the corn. That letter also warned of the financial ramifications for farmers paying much higher prices for the seeds, with the added costs of pesticides. Those added costs could potentially end up reflected in food prices at the local grocery store.

Ruling on Musaajalah with Qur'aanic verses (i.e., where a person who has memorized Qur'aan is asked to quote a verse starting with the letter with which another verse ended)
What is the ruling on the musajalah of the Qura'anic verses in order to remember the verses and to fill the time with something of value? It is not meant by it to belittle Allah's verses.
Praise be to Allaah.
There is nothing wrong with using means that help one to remember and properly memorize the Holy Qur'aan, such as competitions and testing those who have memorized it, and paying attention to verses that sound similar, rather these are things that are recommended (mustahabb), because they reinforce one's memorization and help with it.
That includes what is called musaajalah, where a verse is recited to the hafiz then he is asked to recite a verse that starts with the letter with which the first verse ended.
And Allaah knows best.

Software upgrade includes auto-tuning capability
PositionServo's revision 2 hardware platform is a drop-in replacement for 99% of the installed base while adding auto-tuning capability, programmable brake release delay functionality, plus upgrades to the MotionView OnBoard (MVOB) software.
Lenze Americas has launched PositionServo with its new revision 2 hardware platform. The PositionServo's new hardware platform is a drop-in replacement for 99% of the installed base while adding auto-tuning capability, programmable brake release delay functionality, plus upgrades to the MotionView OnBoard (MVOB) software.
"The auto-tuning capability makes tuning a servo drive effortless" explains, Joel Kahn, PositionServo Product Manager "it allows the user to quickly setup his application and if he needs more precise gain control, manual tuning in velocity and position modes is still available." No longer fixed at 10ms, the brake release time is now programmable to 2000ms in ms increments for precise application control.
"MotionView OnBoard (MVOB) Software is embedded into the drive to allow customers the simplicity of not having to worry about keeping track of their software," explains Sandor Becz, Director of Engineering. "Now the user experience is greatly enhanced with the software upgrades including a new Monitor display, Rotational Direction parameter, Clear and Stop/Reset buttons, plus advanced feedback filter options. And now, upgrading the drive's firmware is as simple as pressing the [Upgrade] button."
The preconfigured Monitor screen allows the user to keep track of the active parameters and monitor I/O values in a single glance. The new Rotational Direction parameter allows users to change the positive direction CW/CCW to fit their specific installation without having to recode all MOVED, MOVEP statements with negative values. A tool in debugging and commissioning applications, the [Stop/Reset] button is available on every main software page.

David Wilkins. WSPA's Chief Veterinary Adviser. will be addressing an international animal welfare conference in Latin America this week.
More than 300 participants, including Animal Health directors in Latin America, will attend the event: "Animal welfare: New horizons for the 21st century" in Montevideo, Uruguay.
Beginning April 24, this pioneering conference will address the increasing importance of animal welfare in the meat industry, one of the largest ones in the region.
Issues such as the current situation of animal welfare in Uruguay and the role of consumers in developed countries will be presented in the conference by a group of experts.
David Wilkins will discuss the role of animal welfare organizations and present the Universal Declaration for Animal Welfare initiative.
"I am certain that this conference will lead to more awareness that good animal welfare and health are essential if the livestock industry in Uruguay and other South American countries want to maintain and increase sales of their products overseas", said Wilkins.
The conference is organized by the European Commission, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE), the National Institute for Agricultural Research (INIA), the Ministry of Agriculture's state veterinary service and WSPA.
"This conference is a vital opportunity for all the sectors involved in the meat producing process to come together and address animal welfare issues", said Marcela Vargas, WSPA's Campaign Manager for Latin America.
"Also, it will give us a chance to present the Universal Declaration to an important audience and start building key alliances with governmental, productive and academic sectors in South America", said Vargas.
For more information, please visit the conference's web page.

Playfully adapting a sign left over from previous tenants (the Black United Foundation), the Shrine deems itself a "Black United Fun Plaza." True enough. The interior is tricked out with African art and vintage album covers (the actual vinyl adorns the ceiling). Harlemites and downtowners pack the Shrine for nightly concerts, which might feature indie rock, jazz, reggae or DJ sets. The cocktail menu aspires to similar diversity: Drinks range from a smooth mango mojito to signature tipples like a snappy Afro Trip (a lime and ginger concoction enhanced by Jamaican or Brazilian rum), and a sweet vodka-and-Bailey's-driven Muslim Jew.

The 2012 M6 convertible (F12) is big, it's heavy, and it's for showing off. But, courtesy of the usual magic from BMW M GmbH, it does not feel as big, heavy, or just for showing off. What it is is a super high performing GT convertible and a hell of a looker.
We spent two days this week in Santa Barbara, California to check out and test drive the all new 2012 BMW M6 and 6 Series Gran Coupe (see our previous review). After over 100 miles of highways, backroads, and mountain twisties, here were our impressions.

16-0. 19-0. 16-4.
These were the regular-season records of St. Dominic Elementary's sixth grade, seventh grade and eighth grade (in order) volleyball teams this year.
But for head coach Denita Simms, those are not the numbers that most impress her.
That singular number would be 22.
As in, there were only 22 players spread out between the three squads.
After going 1-1 in their first two games at the Florida Beach Bash, Washington County Commander head coach Derek Schuler told his team to take the time and appreciate the opportunity that they had to play baseball in Florida.
And, according to Schuler, the team showed that they had taken that advice to heart, putting together two of their top performances of the season in WC's next two contests.
Against the Fairdale Bulldogs, the Commanders jumped out to a 6-0 lead by the second inning.
In remembrance of this year's NCAA tournament, one of the most exciting in recent memory, here are some random facts about both Monday's national championship game and the teams (Kentucky and Connecticut) who played in it.
*All statistics go back to 1985, the year the tournament expanded to 64 teams, unless otherwise specified.
• Before Monday night's loss, UK and Louisville were a combined 23-0 against non-Kentucky based teams in the last three NCAA tournaments.
The 2014 election season is officially getting revved up and absentee voting for this May's primaries has begun.
An absentee ballot application can be requested from Washington County Clerk Glenn Black's office and applications must be submitted no later than May 13. Completed mail-in absentee ballots must be received by the county clerk no later than 6 p.m. on Election Day (May 20).
Offense came at a premium, as the St. Catharine Lady Patriots (11-20, 7-15 MSC) fell to the University of the Cumberlands in a crucial conference series.
After splitting the earlier season meeting between the two Patriot squads, the Purple Pats were looking for an improved result when they traveled to the Cumberlands for an important conference matchup.
Get rooted in the Red Cross this spring. Donate blood and become part of its ever-growing family tree; join about 3.3 million blood donors nationwide in a lifesaving cause.
"Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs blood," Tim Ryerson, CEO of the River Valley Blood Services Region said. The Red Cross must collect enough blood donations every day to meet the needs of cancer patients, trauma victims, organ transplant recipients, premature babies with complications, sickle cell disease patients and others.
The St. Catharine Patriots (18-18, 10-8) ran into a red-hot Georgetown College (27-4, 14-3) team this weekend, losing all three games in the MSC series.
The Pats lost 4-3, 5-2 and 6-1 and dropped into fourth place in the Mid-South Conference.
"We had our chances," noted Patriot skipper Luther Bramblett. "We left too many people on base in the opener and lost. We never regained our approach at the plate after that. They're a good team, and when you have chances against quality oppenents, you must score them."
The Washington County Commanderettes were unable to break out of their Florida funk after dropping their first two contests in the Beach Bash, losing their next three contests by a combined score of 33-20.
But for WC head coach Paul Coulter, the most important part of playing in the event was the team's ability to improve and bond as a unit.
In that aspect, Coulter feels his team's trip was a "big success."
This story is part of an ongoing series taking a closer look at each of the local races in this May's primary election. The Springfield Sun will visit one race each week through the May 14 issue.
The primary election has been set for Tuesday, May 20, and Washington County will have five local races with something on the line this spring.

Earthjustice argued today in the U.S. District Court's Northern District of Florida as part of its challenge against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's proposed rules on sewage, fertilizer and manure pollution.
Earthjustice's challenge is an attempt to strengthen federal limits on two so-called "nutrients," phosphorus and nitrogen, which spur toxic algae outbreaks throughout Florida. Phosphorus and nitrogen pollution comes from sewage, manure, and fertilizer, which runs into stream, lakes, springs, and rivers every time it rains.
"We continued our fight today to clean up our public waters and prevent these nauseating toxic algae outbreaks. This toxic slime is a public health threat and it needs to be stopped," said Earthjustice Attorney David Guest.
After years of seeing toxic algae outbreaks on Florida tourist beaches like Sanibel Island and at fishing destinations like the St. Johns River, Earthjustice filed a Clean Water Act federal lawsuit in 2008 in the Northern District of Florida on behalf of the Florida Wildlife Federation, the Conservancy of Southwest Florida, the Environmental Confederation of Southwest Florida, St. John's Riverkeeper, and the Sierra Club. In 2009, the EPA set numeric limits for the phosphorus and nitrogen that comes from sewage, fertilizer and manure in Florida waters.
Earthjustice's latest challenge is an attempt to make the EPA's limits more effective.
Judge Robert Hinkle did not rule from the bench, but indicated he will issue a ruling soon.

The best steakhouse in Los Angeles, and you better have a deep wallet because everything is pricey. Make sure you get the seafood tower and the lobster mac and cheese.
Yes my favorite restaurant bar none... expensive but well worth it.
Good But Not Great Food Expensive – More expensive than Spago, plan on $100-$150 per person. We spent $80 for each entree and $10 bottle of water that I poured myself. Ordered a well done steak the middle was bloody rare, unbelievable. You really have to question the quality of a steakhouse that can't cook a well done steak. Mortons can cook a huge Porterhouse steak well done, but these people can't do a 16oz New York steak well done. I ordered the potatoes au gratin $12 I got a pan of very thick cut potatoes that tasted dried out burned with not enough cheese, disgusting. The waitress was friendly, prompt but she hovered too much. It was like she was watching me I started to feel self-conscious. The ambiance was amazing, exactly the picture of a high class restaurant. Definitely go to the upstairs dining room the downstairs is not as good. The crowd is dressed up. If they make a mistake on the food, you should request a change, I just didn't want to bother with it after eating the dried out potatoes. This is the kind of place you should go once just to see what it's about and then probably never go again.
Best Steaks ever!!! – Must have: Warm butter cake!!
best steak house I ever been – Mastro's Steakhouse is one of the best in Beverly hills,
it is very expensive but it worth the money you spend
highly recommended
Best steakhouse ever! – One of the best restaurants me and my hubby have been to. Definitely worth 5 stars. The ambiance is just marvelous. Definitely a great date place to celebrate anniversaries. The steaks are really deliciously grilled and the desserts are also good. But all these does not come cheap so if you plan on going, better be prepared and bring in some of that hard-earned cash! Though for me it is really worth it!:)
Five star food. Five star service. Five star restaurant. – I don't give five star ratings easily and this is my first so I'll try my best to convey why I feel Mastro's deserves five stars.
Mastro's restaurant is of top quality and serves excellent food--not just the steak but everything. It is an ideal place for an intimate dinner as well as a private party (they are equipped for that with private rooms/areas). I have found the service to be beyond reproach and the selection of wines.
I always try to reserve a secluded table not in the middle of the restaurant, and preferably upstairs by the windo, which makes a difference in terms of ambiance IMO. The d
Best Steakhouse in Beverly Hills – Every time it has been a great experience.
Prices are a bit steep, but got to pay to play.
this is my favorite restaurant – I love this place , the steaks are the best

Haha. It always happens like that. You call a finished piece finished and then when you listen to it after letting it sit for a while you want to make changes to it.
Nice job BTW. Very nice orchestration. I only wish the volume was louder. I can barely hear it (maybe its just my PC)!CLICK ME!

New full orchestra BGM, started today. Here is the intro, tell me what you think?
The bass sustains an f pedal which I plan to keep for the entire song but its not always audible. It works well for some parts but other times when I want it to come out, it remains hidden. I tried tweaking with the dynamics but still didn't work. If this was played by real people, would this be the case too or is it just cause my speakers can handle the channels?
April 9th, 2009 08:20 pm #37
This is the opening theme to SR. I wanted an electric guitar but noteworthy's electric guitar is too horrible sounding for me to bear so I left it out. Enjoy:lol
Edit: The lyrics are not set yet but the synth voice line is the singer.

In the drums, add straight 8th notes on the hi-hat. That's definitely he secret to a good drum pattern. I loved it when it came in mid-way through! Although, then, the melody came a little un-clear; might want to clean the strings and the voice up a little bit (the leveling)!
Overall, I love it! Quite nice, looking to hear some changes and it's all distinguishable.

I know what you mean. Once I finish it and recorded it, I will resubmit. I like the hi-hat idea, I will certainly give it a try. I'm sure if I made a second verse on it, it would make for a very nice contrasting pattern as well. Anime intro music is generally confined to 1:30 so that makes the entire development of the song feel rushed too.
Thanks for the comment, I thought people didn't like me anymore or something

The title speaks for itself The song is made so that it is able to loop and allow for tempo adjustments to match the length of the scene.

Yup, the title does tell it very well. And I like it, nice recreation. Pizzicatos always seem to recreate very well a scene where people are just bored. The song is quite nice also, I liked the style. The only thing that bug me is the volume... Get it in audacity and increase the volumes!
Oh, if you will make a loop of it, I recommend .Ogg format. When it goes back to the beginning of a piece or song it makes a smooth loop in contrast of a mp3 format; most of the times shows the gasp.When you dare, you go further, experience new things and learn.
April 11th, 2009 10:17 pm #42
Thanks, here is the louder version of the song. I was actually planning to just cut and copy the required parts of the music against the video, in which case, I think mp3 still works fine, but thanks for the tip. I will check it out.
April 12th, 2009 10:13 am #43
I like it a lot! I think it might sound good with a bit extra reverb, but besides that, I really like the quirky melody, and the mental image that the music brings of someone sitting alone at home on a summer day bored out of their mind.

I've added hi-hat to this based on your recommendation Mazeppa and I really like it so I think this is the final instrumental version for the song. I still dun like how I can't get a realistic electric guitar sample to replace the string line but gotta made due with what i got.
The song's range is D-highG and meant to be sung by a guy in Japanese. I still need to think of lyrics but I'm sure it'll come to me.

The finer points of Ferrari ownership are perhaps not so fine, but Chris Harris is still enjoying the ride
The more exotic the motor car, the more likely we are to forgive its shortcomings. When of course we shouldnt.
This is especially true in the world of the Italian supercar, most of which are built according to the first rule of Maranello: namely that you pay all the money for the glorious engine, and they throw the rest in for free. When you attempt to adjust a door mirror in a 612 Scaglietti and the knob completely detaches itself, you think this might be a believable explanation.
Peering at the small details of a car like the 599 can often be very disappointing. Take the key: a nasty lozenge of red plastic that has aged with all the grace of the Morris Itals centre console. The key is your first point of contact with a car. It should usher in the treats to follow. The 599s key is horrid.
The car itself isnt. Ferrari made enormous gains in trim quality and cabin durability in the Noughties. This car feels far sturdier than my 612 and, for the most part, the buttons actually deliver the function allotted to them again, something you couldn't always say about the 612.
What to make of this? Ignore it and simple enjoy that remarkable engine? Or look befuddled because Ferrari can make a massive V12 rev to 8500rpm, but cannot produce a functioning, quiet wiper system? In the rain, sadly its the latter.
Brooding on the wipers, its easy to conclude that Ferrari spends zero time actually sorting these cars for everyday use. You may even think that 200mph doesn't count for much if you cant get the basics right. Well, one look in a 599s side mirrors eradicates all thoughts of Italian laziness: they are simply the best mirrors I have used no mean feat when your hips are as wide a 599's. The glass is massive, the blue tint somehow makes everything look crisp, and theyre heated. Someone spent a long time making them this good, and forgot about the wipers. I wont mention the wipers again, honest.
The electric window switches are the last of the 456-style plastic hoops and they sometimes dont work unless you nudge them from just the right angle. About right for a £90k motor? Quite. On the debit side, the seats are just fantastic: big, supportive, endlessly adjustable and heated.
I am still learning the Becker hi-fi units controls. Sometimes it doesnt like me docking my iPhone, but thats small beer compared to the glove-box mounted connector which is way too short and old enough not to want to charge an iPhone 4. Such is life.
The headlights are plenty good enough, and Ive only had one Total Electrical Armageddon' warning on the dash. Having owed a few of these Fiats, I naturally completely ignored the message. It never returned.
Its a thrilling car to use for supposedly normal journeys. My only criticism of the motor is that above 50mph, you dont get any real exhaust noise in the cabin. Drop the windows a little (when they feel like obeying orders) and you suddenly realise what sultry music youre leaving behind. I dont want the car to be any louder, Id just like some more of its existing music filtered into the cockpit.
Thirst is a problem. Keeping an accurate record would be far too depressing, but in normal use Im seeing 10-12mpg. Employing the heavier clog sees that drop into single figures. A Prius it is not a fact I celebrate each time I drive it.
One unexpected bonus of running carbon ceramic discs is the lack of corrosion if you leave the car outside for a few days. The mild steel discs on a 575 used to oxidise in a few hours and get nasty after a few days. These are fur-free. Use them hard and the pedal gets long they dont fade badly, but require big pedal pressures and become hard to modulate.
So, 1500 miles in and Ive discovered that the 599 is lacking in some minor details, pretty deficient in others and in possession of an outstanding engine. Everything changes and yet nothing changes.

Say Goodbye to Bottled Water
At St. Catherine's High School, the sisters decided to ditch bottled water for a water cooler. But it wasn't without a cost.
Four months ago at the 350-student St. Catherine's High School here, bottled water was removed from the menu.
"The Sisters—we are a Catholic school—wanted to start employing green practices," says Beverly Gilbert, foodservice manager. "One of the suggestions to accomplish this was to go to a water cooler instead of selling bottled water."
The water cooler, which provides hot and cold water, cost about $300, which Gilbert says is the low end of the price range. The cooler is hooked up to the city's water supply. The water runs through filters that need to be changed every six months, at an additional cost of about $100. Students can either bring their own container to fill up or can use a paper cup that is provided.
Although the switch has helped to achieve the school's goal of reducing the amount of plastic bottles that end up in area landfills, Gilbert says it has hurt the department financially. "Bottled water was our biggest seller," she says, adding that about 65 bottles were sold each day. With each bottle selling for $1, the estimated monthly sales loss has been nearly $1,300.
"We had to get creative and introduce new (in-house made) a la carte items like cinnamon rolls, pies, cakes and flavored pretzels to make up for the missed revenue," she says. Since adding the new items, Gilbert says, sales have returned to what they were before bottled water was eliminated.
