2010 Yamaha R1 - Review by Motorcycle Consumer News Review used by permission from Motorcycle Consumer News Magazine. Article by Danny Coe & Dave Searle from February 2010 issue.
The Yamaha R1 was the sensation of the 2009 superbike class. As the first production machine to utilize a version of MotoGP's exotic "big-bang" firing order, it propelled Yamaha to its first ever World Superbike Championship in the hands of rookie WSBK contender, Texan Ben Spies. Spies, fresh from three AMA Superbike Championships pried from the hands of none less than Mat Mladin, his former Yoshimura Suzuki teammate, racing on European tracks he'd never seen before, was simply phenomenal - fully justifying his immediate move to MotoGP for 2010.
Engine Hardware Essentially unchanged except for colors in 2010 (our test bike's white livery is new this year), the 2009 R1 was massively different than the 2008 version. Its changes included an even more over-square 998cc engine that spun a unique "crossplane" crankshaft. Its forged pistons gained 1.0mm in diameter, to 78.0mm and the stroke was reduced from 53.6mm to 52.2mm. The new pistons gave a compression ratio of 12.7:1. The remainder of the DOHC 16-valve top end was unchanged, still using 31mm titanium intake valves and 25mm steel exhausts. Unlike the classic "big bang" GP designs, which would effectively turn a four-cylinder into a twin with pairs firing together, the R1's crank was exactly the same as Yamaha's unusual MotoGP design, with the rod journals offset 90° from one other, but the actual firing sequence oddly staggered, to give intervals of 270°, 180°, 90°, 180°. As this would naturally spoil a four-cylinder's inherent smoothness, a counterbalancer was required to mitigate excess engine vibration. The result is a four cylinder engine that produces the sound, feel and torque production of a twin at lower rpm, for excellent traction and control, while equaling the mid-range and top-end power of their previous in-line four. A tradeoff: The new crankshaft is heavier and, together with the counterbalancer, accounts for an engine weight increase of 3 kg. or 6.6 lbs.
The R1's drivetrain was also changed. It retained the same ramp-type slipper clutch and primary drive gear ratio, but the stacked transmission received revised gearing from first through fourth. Fifth and sixth gear ratios were unchanged. However, the final drive sprocket gained two teeth, lowering the top two ratios overall. The combined changes resulted in a noticeably taller first gear, closer middle ratios and a top gear that almost allows the R1 to reach its redline in sixth, at an actual 176.7 mph.
Also new was a full titanium exhaust system, a four-into-two into- one-into-two design that ends with twin catalyzed titanium mufflers. Notably, the 2009 R1 did not utilize an EXUP back pressure control system, nor does the 2010 model.
YCCT and YCCI Electronics The new hard parts were matched with several layers of electronic enhancements that do at least as much to create its winning performance. Atop the intakes resides its YCCT (Yamaha Chip Controlled Throttle), a computer-controlled system that determines the optimum opening of its 45mm throttle butterflies in response to twistgrip requests. Each cylinder is fueled by a single 12-hole injector for superior atomization and combustion efficiency. The YCCT system also gained a new "D-Mode" (drive mode) switch that provides three separate maps of fuel and ignition combinations. As long as the throttle is in the closed position, each is available at anytime via a quick toggle on the right handlebar. The "standard" or default setting is automatically selected upon engine start-up; it produces a peak of 151.66 hp @ 11,800 rpm and 74.69 lb.-ft. of torque @ 8800 rpm. The optional"A" mode sharpens engine response and performance slightly, giving 154.10 hp @ 11,800 and 76.28 lb.-ft.@ 9000 rpm. The "B" mode option softens response and smooths the powerband, giving "just" 146.22 hp @ 11,800 and 73.61 lb.-ft. @ 8900, which makes it better for riding in inclement weather.
The R1 also continues the use of YCCI (Yamaha Chip Controlled Intake), or variable length intake tract funnels. Below 9400 rpm the system's stacked funnels create a length of 140mm for increased ram effect that improves cylinder filling at lower speeds. Once above 9400 rpm, the upper set separates, so the 65mm lower funnels take over, for increased top-end rpm and power. The R1's redline is marked at 13,750 rpm and our test bike's tach indicated that it would reach nearly 15,000, although the dyno printout showed it never exceeded 13,500 rpm. Does Yamaha have another tachometer accuracy problem?
Chassis, Suspensions, Wheels & Brakes The new engine is installed in a slightly more forward position in a new chassis with revised stiffness. The frame is now stiffer in both the steering head and swingarm pivot areas, but to achieve 37% greater torsional flexibility for better road feel, it uses "controlled- fill" die cast downtubes welded to extruded inner sections. To reduce weight distant from its center of mass, the R1's rear subframe has been cast in magnesium—just like the latest R6.
The swingarm receives a similar cast and extruded aluminum construction and now uses a more progressive linkage to support a revised SOQI monoshock. Access to the shock's dual-stage compression damping and single speed rebound adjusters is excellent, while a hydraulic preload adjuster makes spring tuning a snap. The rear suspension offers 4.7" of travel (.25" less than the'08 shock), however it is still not adjustable for ride height. The R1's front suspension is also new—a 4.7"-travel, 43mm SOQI male-slider fork that separates damping functions to reduce oil cavitation—rebound in the right leg, compression on the left, with screw adjusters on top only. Preload is handled by the usual hex-type adjusters atop each leg. Another new feature this year is an active steering damper. At throttle openings above 50% or speeds over 125mph, the damper's resistance force increases. Below these thresholds, damping is reduced so it doesn't interfere with steering ease.
Rolling stock includes lightweight cast alloy, 5-spoke rims, 3.50" front and 6.00" rear, fitted with 120/70ZR and 190/55ZR Dunlop Qualifier D210 rubber. The front brakes are dual 310mm semi-floating stainless rotors, mounted on stiffened carriers. The front calipers are monobloc types (one-piece forgings) in a six piston configuration that contains four pads per caliper. Two larger brake pads serve the two leading pistons while one set of smaller pads back the trailing pistons. The front brakes are controlled by a Brembo radial-pump master cylinder for best feel, while the fixed 220mm rear rotor is stopped by a single-piston Nissin caliper, activated by a matching Nissin master cylinder. Bodywork, Instrumentation & Ergonomics New, more abbreviated bodywork distinguishes the new R1. The fairing's side panels have been smoothed and shortened to reduce drag and enable greater heat extraction. The nose has a new look, featuring dual projector beam headlights placed in slots on each side that form the ram air intake openings. Both headlights remain on, regardless of beam selection. In the low setting, the illumination is decent, but the beams have a distinct vertical cutoff above which the rider's field of view at night suffers. On high beams, however, illumination and brightness are excellent.
The R1's instrumentation is very complete. Atop the dash is a bright programmable shift light that's easily seen. Centered in the dash is an analog tachometer and a gear position indicator, a digital speedo, a fuel reserve indicator (which typically turns on after 95 miles are traveled), current and average fuel consumption, an odometer, two trip meters, reserve fuel range, coolant temp gauge, Drive Mode setting, lap timer, throttle opening value and a clock. Warning lights for high beams, turn indicators, neutral, oil level, coolant temp, battery charge, EFI and steering damper warning and low fuel complete the comprehensive data.
Rider ergonomics are improved, with handlebars 10mm closer to the rider and footpegs moved forward 10mm. An optional mounting position is provided that raises the foot controls another 15mm. The lower position was judged high enough, and even during our most aggressive riding, nothing on the R1 would touch down. Also, a new fuel tank with a more elongated shape gives a slimmer fit between the knees and fits deeper within the upper frame rails to better centralize the weight of its 4.8 gal. of fuel.
YZF R1 Performance On the strip, we managed a best quarter-mile of "only" 10.05 seconds @ 138.51 mph, attributing our inability to delve into the nines to a very tall first gear, the factory's detuning of engine performance in the lower gears and the R1's 471.5-lb. wet weight. Whatever the reason, in stock trim, the big YZF still pulls hard enough to demand every bit of your full attention.
At the opposite end of the performance spectrum, our stopping distances were only good, not great. 122.9' from 60mph is decent, but far from our best liter-bike numbers. But we cannot fault the R1's braking systems. Its front brakes offer exceptional feel and power and their feedback through the SOQI fork and stiff cast steering head were everything we could have wished. However, the machine's forward weight distribution—52.8% front static, although great for balanced handling with a rider aboard, and its relatively tall seat—32.25" unladen - combined to make the rear wheel lift very easily under the hardest stops, creating a limit that even sticky tires couldn't mitigate. During our over-the-road testing, on the other hand, the brakes were flawless, controllable and far from overpowering.
Fuel consumption was high, but not reasonable for such a powerful machine, and our overall average was 29.4 mpg. Highway riding was thriftiest, returning 38.8 mpg, canyon carving was thirsty, just 25.3 and commuting in heavy city traffic gave the worst result—just 25.1 mpg.
Riding Impressions Several impressions rush to mind when riding this motorcycle. First is that it offers three distinctly different personalities. In its"A" mode, the throttle response is, indeed, sharpest, but the abrupt power delivery and its effect on the chassis make the tradeoff less attractive. Overall, the wide spectrum of useable power available in the "standard" mode made it the favorite choice during most of our spirited sport riding and left several of us wondering why we even needed more. And although we did not spend much time in the "B" mode, the way this Yamaha produces power we could see that this muted option would be best in the wet.
With its manageable standard power delivery and solid new chassis, the Yamaha returns especially good feedback from the rear tire under acceleration, and the crossplane motor generates a very strong surge that begins in the mid range and continues a non-stop rush just shy of redline. Starting from a stop at low rpm, the engine does have a low frequency vibration, perhaps best described as a faint shudder that you feel through the footpegs and can also hear. This, however, quickly passes and is superseded by the torque-filled big bang thrust.
The newest R1 is the most stable version yet. The influence of its electronic steering damper is never obvious and over bumpy roads the motorcycle remains solid and true in its trajectory. We increased front preload and damping slightly over stock, while reducing rear preload and slowing rear rebound, too, which improved cornering stability but reduced compliance on freeway expansion joints. On canyon roads, where this motorcycle is truly in its element, it will tax the front tire's traction on corner entry, so using the OE rubber, an astute rider will want to pick up the throttle at the apex rather than overload the tire. We think a less experienced rider on the R1 would be better off using premium aftermarket rubber with elevated grip levels. Also, the R1 produces significant heat from the rear tailpipes and mufflers. In warm weather the rider's calves and thighs were subjected to borderline tolerable levels of engine and exhaust heat.
Bottom Line For an extremely fast sportbike, you couldn't ask for more. The new R1 is not the lightest liter-bike, but its potent engine could care less. It looks great, sounds even better and the big bang firing order is no longer just a racing advantage. The YZF-R1 might not be for the masses, but for an all-out performer, this machine can expand horizons...in a big way. It's that good!

I had a problem this morning where for some reason I needed to do a drawing recovery on a map - which is fine, all seems well.
The problem is that now when I type a command, it doesn't appear next to the cursor anymore. It's not really a NEED having it there, but I've gotten to like that in the newer CAD versions, and now I can't find the setting that makes it come back. Sure I CAN type everything and have it show just at the bottom of the screen, but I'd rather have my dynamic field back.
Anyone know how I can restore it?

"I loved everything about this card except for the font I chose for the back of the card. It was so tiny you could barely read it. I went with the bracket cutout which looks great on this card."
"This is my 2nd time ordering from Tiny Prints and the first year that I have ever ordered my Christmas cards early...2 months early. The item was shipped very quickly and it was just as I imagined it to be. I ordered the Pearlescent paper and the card looks very chic. The paper quality is not too thick and not too thin...just right. I was hoping that the glitter would actually "sparkle" more but it was just a "flat" look. The only thing that I don't like is when Tiny Prints put the design name of the card and the Tiny Prints logo on the back....I think that looks tacky and takes away from the beauty of the card. I haven't sent it out yet since it's still early November but I can't wait to receive feedback from my friends and family."
"I ordered these cards to send to family for Xmas. I didn't even choose different colors or choices, as I loved the design already. I was worried about my photos ruining the look of the card, but the quality of them on the card is amazing. I have never had such good quality in a Xmas card before. I absolutely love them. They are vibrant and very stylish. Love that the back has a pattern on it, too. Makes them stand out that much more! Very, very happy customer!!!"
"I took the opportunity to share highlights of a family trip over the summer with some great casual shots of the children for this end of year holiday card. There was even a spot for a picture of my husband an I on the bottom which was perfect for send off. Got great feedback from all the friends and family."
"Even when FedEx lost our cards the first time, TinyPrints pulled through with incredible customer service and reprinted our cards. An awesome company with exceptional products."

First visit to Snowmass in the summer and staying at the Lodge was fun. Room was nice, the price was great, and the location was excellent(right off the Snowmass Mall near public transportation. Our only complaints are about ventilation - the room has no air conditioning and no bathroom fan. It was really hot, added to by the bathroom humidity. When we complained, we were told, "Use the fan." Putting the fan in the window wrecked our privacy and increased noise. We also felt that breakfast should have run until 10:00 at least, instead of 9:30, since it was only a continental breakfast requiring little efort.

A tilted uterus, also called a tipped uterus or retroverted uterus, is a normal anatomical variation. It shouldn't interfere with your ability to conceive.
In most women, the uterus tips forward at the cervix. About 1 in 4 women, however, has a uterus that leans backward, or tilts, at the cervix. In the past, doctors thought that a tilted uterus could have contributed to infertility. But experts now know that the position of the uterus doesn't affect the ability of sperm to reach an egg.
Rarely, a sharply tilted uterus is due to a disease such as endometriosis, an infection or prior surgery. Although this may make it more challenging for the sperm to reach the egg, conception can still occur. However, in these cases, you may benefit from seeing a fertility specialist.

Best way to make a large poster with photoshop/illustrator without killing computer?
July 12, 2008
What is the best workpath to use when making large poster with Photoshop + Illustrator?
I need to make a poster that is about 43 by 43 inches and 250-300 dpi. It has a lot of placed images (about 30), which all together are only about 20Megs.
My first approach was to begin the project in illustrator, placing the rasters, adding some additional vector graphics, then exporting this as a photoshop doc. However, I found out that this export is extremely taxing on the computer since illustrator isnt setup well to deal with scratch disks for exporting. My computer (2RAM, about 150Gigs of scratchdisk space), could only export a flattened version, not one with editable objects, which sort of defeats the whole purpose of setting it up in illustrator.
I am planning to start this poster again from within photoshop and was wondering if the following approach is the best:
I want to start of a document that is 43 by 43 inches with 72 dots per square inch, do all the composition, and place some illustrator files as well.
Next I want to change the dpi to 300, rasterize everything while keeping keep objects. Then do any effects i want to do, alas flatten everything, then finally export to pdf and print.
Is this the best way of doing things or am i missing some crutial information?
I've never had to deal with printing anything bigger than a legal sized paper, so any tips/rules of thumb would be greatly appreciated!

What you really want is a dedicated page layout program that uses linked files and only "puts it all together" during printer output or PDF export. You should be able to buy license for older versions of InDesign or Quark Xpress on the cheap.
HOWEVER, If you're stuck with AI and PS, use Illustrator as a layout program. Use linked files in Illustrator (in the Place dialog box), not embedded ones - this will save you hell of scratch disk space - and when you're ready to take it to a printer, Save As PDF using the setting [Print Quality]. In Illustrator the placed docs will look gross but they will export to PDF just fine.
I can't think of a single reason why you'd prefer a flat, rasterized, huge-ass .PSD to a high-quality PDF. I have been in printing for a long time.

Why not just keep the whole thing in Illustrator?

Thanks for the comments,
Optimus: I have been using linked files, but to my knowledge, when you do a conversion from .ai to .psd, the links are lost, and any linked files are embedded into the psd. I'm not sure how different the internal workings of InDesign are? I thought the primary difference was the InDesign is used for Magazines while illustrator for one page things.
Optimus&rhizome: the reason i was trying to take it into photoshop was because i still wanted to do some effects to the rasters after the layout is done. Is there another way to do this type of thing? (Say i make some vector line that comes at a raster at some angle and then makes the actual raster look different when it is overlapping it - is there another way to deal with this other than importing the whole thing into photoshop, so that i can put effects on the raster + have a reference to where the vector is?
It would be ideal if i could open the raster file in photoshop and also somehow import how certain vectors are overlapping that image in my illustrator file...

What versions of Photoshop and Illustrator are you using? If your using CS3, you can paste your Illustrator files as Smart Objects into Photoshop, which will maintain their resolution independent of the Photoshop file resolution. At 43x43 @ 300 dpi, you're going to be pushing the limits of your machine, I would upscale as late in the process as possible.

If you do decide to layout everything in Illustrator and leave it there (which is what I would do), you could address this problem by just laying everything out in Illustrator, then exporting from Illustrator to a low-res jpg or tiff. Then you can open that jpg/tiff in Photoshop and bring it into all your raster images as a separate layer; make it a bit transparent so you can see where to apply your effects to your images. Then just delete/hide that layer, save, and make sure everything looks good back in Illustrator. If your file is too big to export from Illustrator even as a low-res jpg or tiff, you could even just take a screenshot of your layout to use as reference.

What kind of effects do you want to to apply to the vector part? Illustrator is surprisingly robust to the point of fault. (In our shop, we have files that take 30+ minutes to flatten when sent from a Mac Pro).

Illustrator is for vector illustration. InDesign is for page layout, whether it's one page or 100. Can you upload a sketch or preview somewhere? I just can't image why you'd need to do the whole thing in Photoshop. I see it all the time, and there's always a better way. If it's drop shadows you want, you can generate them in AI. If it's a vector changing the look of an underlying raster because of the layer mode, you can do that in AI as well. Or you could do individual bits in Photoshop and place them as separate linked files in Illustrator. Unless the whole thing is one huge graphic/illustration without any empty space, there's no reason to create a 12,900px x 12,900px image.

If you're using linked files in Illustrator, just do the effects on raster stuff in PSD and when you switch back to Illustrator, the new rasters will be imported. Doing all of this in PSD sounds painful and unnecessary.

Have you talked to your printer to get the specs they need to print your poster? Many companies use HP5000 or something similar to print short run posters now. Your file only needs to be built at 100dpi for a high quality print if this is the case. I work with large and grand format files everyday and there is no need to be at 300dpi for this type of printing. In fact the larger your size, the lower the dpi. (billboards are printed at 25dpi, car wraps between 50-72dpi)
Also, Illustrator is specifically a vector program. Bringing photos into Illustrator causes massive files sizes that are really unneeded. There is no reason why you couldn't create your file full size in Photoshop and then drag vector graphics from Illustrator into your Photoshop document to get the effects you want. I see this done quite frequently.
I had a coworker who would create a layout in illustrator and take a screen shot which he used in Photoshop as his guide to placement when it came to making the final version. This seems very time consuming to me, but if you are comfortable with your technique, more power to ya!
Definitely call your printer before starting any job to get the specs, I can't stress this enough. You could be suffering needlessly at this point!

You don't have to embed the images in Illustrator -- you can link to them just fine.

Myles' Weekend Adventures: Bonjour mon amis! Comment ca va? Myles Shaffer here. While I do have a couple of things on my feeble mind that I could complain about, I really don't consider them to be of any concern to anybody other than myself; therefore, let us go straight to the discussion of beautiful women. Victoria Valentino Wednesday evening, October 4Th, I drove down to the Fantasy Castle, in Signal Hill, to meet Victoria Valentino and to observe one of her shows. When I arrived in the parking lot and exited my car, the clubs owner, Jerry Westlund, was standing there speaking with a couple of fellows. As I walked by them, Jerry turned to me, said hello, shook my hand, and called out to the door man to allow me free entry for the evening. Of course, I thanked Jerry profusely before entering the club. Victoria Valentino is a lovely and quite sexy looking young woman with a very nice looking body. She is also very friendly and seems to very much enjoy meeting and speaking with her fans. Based on the one show I observed, I will say that Victoria performed on stage so well as a lot of the features I've seen over the last few years, and better than a few. It seemed to me that she was truly having fun on stage and was enjoying performing for the crowd. Also, her interaction with several of the people at the tip rail was actually a little bit better than it was suppose to be in this particular club and location. For the one show I saw, Victoria wore a quite appealing and interesting black cat costume complete with a long tail. In fact, she could easily wear the same costume to a mainstream Halloween party. Of course, if she were to begin to remove the outer layers of the costume as she did on this night, the party would most definitely heat up in short order! Considering the quality of the performance I observed, I was a bit surprised when Victoria told me she has only been feature dancing for six months. If anybody happened to get a chance to go to a club to see and meet Victoria Valentino in person, by all means, I want them to take advantage of said opportunity and lend the lady their support. I am certain that, as she gains experience, Victoria will just keep on getting better and better. By the way, I probably should mention that Victoria is a recent graduate of the Pure Talent School of Dance! While I have not been able to locate a website for Victoria Valentino, a few good pictures of her can be seen at: pure-talent.com/victoria_valentino_credits.htm Nyomi Marcela Friday afternoon, October 6Th, I went to the City of Industry Spearmint Rhino to say hello to Nyomi Marcela and to observe her matinee show. Nyomi is a lovely lady with a cute, all natural body. She is sweet, friendly, well spoken, and she enjoys meeting her fans. Nyomi's musical selection is always good, and her costumes, while not overly elaborate, are always cute and sexy. Also, her stage performances get better every time I see her. Nyomi's interaction with the tip rail patrons to date has been limited to good close up views of the goodies and lots of sweet, sexy smiles. I would like to see her get a bit more up close and personal with her interacting, but it isn't going to cause the end of the world if she never does. Her shows are quite enjoyable as they are. I do believe that Nyomi is well worth the drive to a nearby club to see her perform and to meet her in person. NyomiMarcela.com is now up and running, so go check her out. Nikki Benz Friday night, I drove up to the Van Nuys Spearmint Rhino to say hello to Nikki Benz and to observe her first show of the evening. For this particular show, Nikki wore her L.A.P.D. policewoman costume. I would venture to guess that if all police officers were women, and they all looked so good in their uniforms as Nikki did in this costume, the petty crime rate would skyrocket over night! Every horny, heterosexual, man and bisexual woman in the country would be out committing misdemeanor crimes, then turning themselves in to the first policewoman they saw in hopes of talking her into some fun and games in the back seat of her patrol car. Nikki performs very well on stage and interacts quite well with nearly every person seated at the tip rail. Also, her costumes are always very sexy and appealing, and her musical selection is always good and appropriate for the show she is performing. Additionally, Nikki is a beautiful, friendly, well spoken woman with a gorgeous, slender, well proportioned body. And, she enjoys meeting and speaking with her fans. Nikki Benz comes complete with my highest recommendations; therefore, I do not want anybody to ever pass up an opportunity to see her perform and to meet her in person. Nikki can be seen at: NikkiBenz.com Kaylani Lei After saying goodnight to Nikki Benz, I raced up to Rouge Gentlemen's Club, also in Van Nuys, to spend the rest of the evening with Kaylani Lei. Yes, I said Kaylani Lei. She is back! I'm sorry to report that Kaylani's reason for retiring so early didn't work out; therefore, his loss is the rest of the world's gain. Kaylani has returned to the adult entertainment industry, and she told me that she is happy to be back. Kaylani is, I believe, the most beautiful and sexy Filipino woman I have ever seen! And, she is sweet, intelligent, well spoken, and extremely friendly. Also, she has a terrific sense of humor. (Actually, Kaylani is half Filipino and half Chinese and, in her case, what a combination it is!) For those who prefer a well toned, all natural body, Kaylani Lei is your type of a woman! (it really doesn't matter to me, since the vast majority of women are all my type of women.) Kaylani's costumes are always quite sexy and rather appealing. Also, she always dances to a good musical selection, and she always performs well on stage. Kaylani is still not too strong on the up close, personal, and in your face sort of interaction with the customers. However, it is my opinion that she more than makes up for it with her bubbly, charming, personality which comes out in both her stage performances and conversations with her fans. Kaylani Lei is definitely worth the drive to a nearby club, or even a not so nearby club, to see her perform and to meet her in person; therefore, nobody should ever miss an opportunity to go see her. I do believe they will like what they see! Visit Kaylani at: KaylaniLei.net That's it for another week. Everybody stay safe, have a great week, and live life to its fullest!

Historical Traveler Reviews Hyatt Regency Pittsburgh International Airport
Great hotel AND location
I stayed here for business April 13th. The hotel itself is very nice and the restaurant is good as well. The rooms are very clean and well appointed.
The work out facility has new cardio machines, dumbells and a couple of weight machines. One thing that surprised me is that the hotel does not provide water in the fitness center.
It is a 5 minute walk to the Pittsburgh Airport - you can't get a more convenient location. My only complaint is that there is not a gift shop at the hotel to purchase snacks, magazines, etc. I would stay here again and recommend it for anyone needing to be close to the airport.
Superb Experience at PBurgh Hyatt
Stayed for two nights. Very quiet, exceptionally clean and well-maintained. It think the T-Mobile hot spot is expensive for $10 a day, but that's the only issue I had. My two room service experiences were ABOSLUTLEY wonderful. I'd forgotten that room service can be a good experience rather than a grim experience. I gave extra gratuity to both servers, they were that nice and glowing.
Hyatt Pittsburgh - None better than this!
Best Hotel in Airport Area. Only Hotel within 6 miles of the airport. I have stayed at all of them. Food - Excellent, Service - Excellent, Location - Excellent. I would not stay anywhere else. I travel 20 - 30 times a year and I stay at the Hyatt the night before all my trips. I never have to worry about missing my flight or traffic and weather. You are located 200 yards from check in. No shuttle to wait for! I can get up in the morning and use the extensive fitness center (free to Hotel guests) 24 hour access or sleep an extra hour or two. I recommend this Hyatt to anyone who has an early morning flight.
Great airport hotel
This hotel exceeds my expectations every time I stay there. The rooms are spotless, very nicely decorated, and have very nice furnishings and linens. Of course, there's the added luxury of leaving your door and getting to the airport within 5 minutes.
This is the nicest Hyatt I've ever stayed in. The only drawback is that the beds are hard. It doesn't matter whether you get 2 doubles or a king. I've tried both.
Another ferfect stay
Stayed the night of June 22. I have been a a guest at the Hyatt several times before, finding it the perfect place to spend the night when one has a long early morning flight ahead of you. I would not recommend it for the vacationer, since it far from anything entertaining. But for business meetings and staying a night prior to flight departure, I think this the the perfect place to stay. To get to the main terminal, you never have to encounter the weather since it is connected to the airport and moving walkways speed you along nicely. One always feels fresh and rested for the hassles of modern air travel.
Convenient Location
I attended a confernece/business meeting at this hotel recently. If you don't mind being out at the airport, this is a great hotel. If it takes you more than 15 minutes to get from the plane to your room you must of gotten lost. You don't have to set foot outside to get to the hotel. You're indoors from your plane seat to your bed. The hotel and rooms were very clean. Rooms were large, appointed nicely and had high speed and wireless internet access. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. About the only downside I could find to this place is that it only has a single restaurant/bar, so there is only one place to go for breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks. But the food was very good, so it really wasn't that big a deal. I would definitely use this hotel again for a business meeting.
Good deal at the Hyatt
Reasonable rates. Large rooms. Located on the airport grounds. My room faced the active runway for the day. I was surprised, very little noise could be heard in the room from the jets. Only disapointment was Sunday breakfast buffet. Service was slow and choices were limited.
Great hotel--easy to find
This hotel has an excellent staff. They were very friendly and helpful from the waiters to the concierge . They offered us insider local advice that saved us an hour of waiting in a line to enter the Post Gazette Pavilion. ( use the left hand lane because ALL three of the lanes can make a right into the pavilion for a concert ) We just sailed by all of the people waiting in line!
A Great Place to stay
this is a really great place to stay , the room price is in the good deal rate, the service is unserpassed, and the food is very good and compairable to most fine dining if you stay there you have to try the steak and the crab cakes ...wonderful to say the least .

Two new flavors are in stores!
July 27, 2011
We have been busy over here at Perry's, and thought it was time to change things up: two new reasons to enjoy Perry's Ice Cream are in stores!
Something to serve alongside a cake (we think it is a wedding cake companion candidate) or by itself, at the big family gathering or as a Wednesday night dinner dessert - meet Butter Almond - butter pecan ice cream with almond pieces.
Sunset Sherbet - yummy, refreshing and deliciously unique combination of pineapple, tangerine and passion fruit sherbets. Gluten free … and sooo good!
Find a place that sells them near you – our Where To Buy tool is good at that. To look up Butter Almond, choose Premium 1.5 qt size, to find Sunset sherbet – sherbet 1.5 qt.
Let us know how you like them – we'd love to hear back!

jennifer brew says:Does the butter almond actually have pecans in it? I have an allergy to pecans and wouldnt expect to find pecans in something called "butter almond". Thanks!
Perry's Ice Cream says:
If you know you are allergic just to pecans – you will be OK to eat Butter Almond. However if your array of allergies is wider {tree nuts}, you should not try this flavor.
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Elaine, Key Lime Pie has not been in production for a long time. Perhaps you'd enjoy Lemon Meringue? http://www.perrysicecream.com/lemon-meringue/?page=productsNav
Joan Saracino says:We absolutely love your Oregon Blackberry cheesecake, Now our only Perry's stand has stopped selling it. Please help us!!!! Where else can we get it? We live upstate in Hancock NY
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Try searching for a different location to carry the flavor using our WHERE TO BUY section: http://www.perrysicecream.com/flavor-finder/
annecjf says:i have not been able to find butter pecan ice cream so i purchased the new butter almond. i do not like it!!! it is weird to have almonds in butter pecan flavor ice cream. why did you stop producing true butter pecan? now i will have to buy a different brand of my favorite flavor.
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Thank you for your feedback! We have re-introduced Butter Almond because of the current price of pecans. However, you can still enjoy Butter Pecan at ice cream stands and you can always ask for a pint-to-go.
Ken Habberfield says:This is great. Not sure if Perry's ever made this before (I thought they did) but I know have had it from other manufacturers. I always look for this flavor and was thrilled when I saw it in the Perry's case. Mark me down for this and Bittersweet Sinphony every time!
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Thank you, Ken! These are traditional seasonal flavors, we have made them before. Enjoy! – Elena
rosalie says:where can I buy Kaluha Almond Amerretta by the quart?
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Rosalie, you should search the flavor using our WHERE TO BUY tool – there is a link to it at the top of the page, or here is the link directly: http://www.perrysicecream.com/flavor-finder. Kahlua Almond Amaretto is an ice cream stands only flavor, but you can always ask the stand for a pint-to-go.
jack says:Shameful to substitute pecans with almonds – you had a truly superior mix and made it just average!
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Jack, thank you for being such a passionate fan. If we switch back to pecans we will be sure to let you know!
Patricia Alvarez says:I am looking for the apple pie ice cream in stores!!! I absolutely love this flavor and can't seem to find it anywhere! I know that I did buy it at a store in the past, but have not found it recently. Will you be selling it soon or did I miss it already?? I loke that and the Pumpkin Pie which I have stocked up on already!!! I was also wondering how I can get a Sabres magnet schedule if I don't go to the game??? Thanks for such a great product!!!
Perry's Ice Cream says:
The Southern Apple Pie ice cream is sold at stands only, so you need to look for the nearest stand to sell it (using our WHERE TO BUY section at the top of the page) and ask for a pint to go. We are only given enough magnets to pass out at the game, sorry. – Elena
Wendy Smiley says:Perry's Butter Pecan was my favorite ice cream. I bought it often. I am very disappointed that you have stopped making it. Please reconsider.
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Wendy, thank you for your feedback. We will pass it along to our team!

So glad you liked it, Laurie! In fact, we are dedicating the whole week to Zero Visibility. Follow along on http://www.facebook.com/perrysicecream. – Elena
Vicki says:I absolutley LOVE your new sunset sherbert. It is awesome!!!!
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Vicki, we are delighted to hear, thank you for reaching out! – Elena
Carol Carberry says:I love the Butter Almond. It is great with everything and stands alone just fine. Love Perry's Ice Cream. What ever happened to Rocky Mountain Raspberry? It was my absolute favorite and no one seems to offer it now.
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Carol, thank you for reaching out and thank you for your kind words. Rocky Mountain Raspberry is still around and many places still offer it. I have just search my home zip code and there were 6 ice cream stands that offer it now. It is easy to locate flavors nearby with the help of our Where To Buy tool – http://www.perrysicecream.com/flavor-finder – choose "Ice Cream Stand Flavors" as your product size. – Elena
chris says:Did they take banana split off
the market in buffalo, ny
I can't it find for months!!!!-
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Chris, yes, Banana Split is off the market. Have you tried Banana Cream Pie? It has been quite a hit since 2010. – Elena
Iesha Honeycutt says:Hello.. I'm not a big ice cream eater but I fell in love with the strawberry Sundae swirl.. is this flavor discontinued? i have not been able to find it for a while now..
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Iesha, Strawberry Sundae has been discontinued, but regular Strawberry flavor will have a lot of what you are looking for. We recommend serving it with whipped cream. – Elena
Sandie Salley says:When will the new sponge candy flavor be available in the stores? Can't wait to try it.
Perry's Ice Cream says:
Sandie, the new Sponge Candy flavor is already available in ice cream stands. This season it is going to be ice cream stands only flavor. – Elena

The structure of aquareovirus shows how the different geometries of the two layers of the capsid are reconciled to provide symmetrical interactions and stabilization Structure, Volume 4, Issue 8, 15 August 1996, Pages 957-967 Andrea L Shaw, Siba K Samal, K Subramanian and BV Venkataram Prasad Summary Background Aquareoviruses are important pathogens of aquatic animals and have severe consequences in aquaculture. These viruses belong to the family Reoviridae. A structural feature common to members of the Reoviridae is a multilayered capsid, formed by several concentric icosahedral shells with different protein compositions. How these proteins, which often are present in unequal stoichiometries, interact between icosahedral layers to stabilize the capsid is not well understood.Results We have determined the three-dimensional structure of aquareovirus to 23 å resolution using electron cryomicroscopy and computer image analysis. The protein capsid is composed of two structurally distinct icosahedral layers: an outer layer ∼100 å thick, with incomplete T=13 left-handed symmetry, surrounds an inner layer 600 å in diameter that has T=1 symmetry and is perforated by channels near the fivefold axes. There are 120 subunits, arranged in dimers, in the inner layer, each of which interacts with two of the 600 subunits in the outer layer. A separate set of closely interacting proteins forms the fivefold axes of the virus structure, forming continuous density throughout both layers of the capsid. Comparison of full and empty (lacking RNA) virus structures reveals an RNA shell that lies directly beneath the inner layer.Conclusions Our aquareovirus structure displays marked similarity to the mammalian reovirus intermediate subviral particles, suggesting a close evolutionary relationship. However, the noticeable distinction is that aquareovirus lacks the hemagglutinin spike observed in reovirus. The T=1 inner layer organization observed in the aquareovirus appears to be common to other members of the Reoviridae. Such organization may be of fundamental significance in the endogenous transcription of the genome in these viruses. Summary | Full Text | PDF (1925 kb) |
The Structure of Elongated Viral Capsids Biophysical Journal, Volume 98, Issue 12, 16 June 2010, Pages 2993-3003 Antoni Luque and David Reguera Abstract There are many viruses whose genetic material is protected by a closed elongated protein shell. Unlike spherical viruses, the structure and construction principles of these elongated capsids are not fully known. In this article, we have developed a general geometrical model to describe the structure of prolate or bacilliform capsids. We show that only a limited set of tubular architectures can be built closed by hemispherical icosahedral caps. In particular, the length and number of proteins adopt a very special set of discrete values dictated by the axial symmetry (fivefold, threefold, or twofold) and the triangulation number of the caps. The results are supported by experimental observations and simulations of simplified physical models. This work brings about a general classification of elongated viruses that will help to predict their structure, and to design viral cages with tailored geometrical properties for biomedical and nanotechnological applications.

Functional implications of the structure of the murine parvovirus, minute virus of mice Structure, Volume 6, Issue 11, 15 November 1998, Pages 1369-1381 Mavis Agbandje-McKenna, Antonio L Llamas-Saiz, Feng Wang, Peter Tattersall and Michael G Rossmann Summary Background: Minute virus of mice (MVM) is a single-stranded (ss) DNA-containing, murine parvovirus with a capsid built up of 60 icosahedrally related polypeptide chains, each of which consists of the C-terminal region common to two structural proteins, VP1 and VP2. In infectious virions, most VP2 molecules are cleaved to VP3 by the removal of about 20 amino acids from the N terminus. Of the 587 amino acids in VP2, approximately half are identical to those in the analogous capsid protein of the antigenically distinct canine parvovirus (CPV), the crystal structure of which has previously been determined. The three-dimensional structure determination of MVMi (the immunosuppressive strain of MVM) was previously reported to 3.5 å resolution.Results: We report here an analysis of the MVMi virus structure and provide insights into tissue tropism, antigenicity and DNA packaging. Amino acids determining MVM tissue tropism were found to cluster on, or near, the viral surface. A conserved, glycine-rich, N-terminal peptide was seen to run through a cylindrical channel along each fivefold axis and may have implications for antigenicity. Density within the virion was interpreted as 29 ssDNA nucleotides per icosahedral asymmetric unit, and accounts for over one-third of the viral genome.Conclusions: The presence of the glycine-rich sequence in the fivefold channels of MVMi provides a possible mechanism to explain how the unique N-terminal region of VP1 becomes externalized in infectious parvovirions. Residues that determine tropism may form an attachment recognition site for a secondary host-cell factor that modulates tissue specificity. The ordering of nucleotides in a similar region of the interior surface in the CPV and MVMi capsids suggests the existence of a genomic DNA-recognition site within the parvoviral capsid.

Research Article

Instituto de Investigaciones Bioquimicas (INIBIBB), Bahia Blanca, Argentina.
An analysis of the crystallographically determined structures of the icosahedral protein coats of Tomato Bushy Stunt Virus, Southern Bean Mosaic Virus, Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus, Human Rhinovirus 14 and Mengovirus around their fivefold axes is presented. Accessibilities surfaces, electrostatic energy profile calculations, ion-protein interaction energy calculations, free energy perturbation methods and comparisons with structures of chelating agents are used in this study. It is concluded that the structures built around the viral fivefold axes would be adequate for ion binding and transport. Relative ion preferences are derived for the binding sites, using free energy perturbation methods, which are consistent with the experimental data when available. In the cases where crystallographic studies determined the existence of ions on the fivefold axes, our results indicate that they would correspond to ions in crystallization or purification buffers. The environment of the fivefold axes are rich in polar residues in all icosahedral viral structures whose atomic coordinates are available, including some that are not being analyzed in detail in this work. The fivefold channel-like structures have most of the basic properties expected for real ion channels including a funnel at the entrance, a polar internal environment with frequent alternation of acidic and basic residues, ion binding sites, the capability to induce ion dehydration and ion transit from the external viral surface to the binding sites.

I used canned black-eyed peas and served with homemade baked pita chips. Very hearty appetizer.
Spicy Black-Eyed Pea Dip
This Spicy Black-Eyed Pea Dip is like a Southern-style hummus; serve with bread toasts, crackers, pita bread, or cut-up veggies. The dip is delicious served warm. To do some of the work ahead, prepare the recipe through step four, but combine all of the ingredients and bake the dip just before serving. It's also nice as a sandwich spread.

The Supreme Court set a Nov. 13 deadline for briefs on the constitutionality issue. The state will then have 60 days to respond. A hearing could be held sometime early next year.
Paulding said he thinks Hayes could have a tougher fight than Ross to get death in light of the repeal.
"I would have to believe it would be harder for this to occur now," Paulding said. "If I was a judge now and Steven Hayes said that to me, I would tell him I am going to defer any orders on this until the Supreme Court rules."
In his letter, Hayes said he would be making "a formal announcement" about his decision to go to "the death chamber" during "the 2nd week of October," but he did not say how he would announce it.
"I was willing to live with the intense grief from my past actions, and I still am willing," Hayes wrote. "However, I cannot live with the intense tourcher (sic), torment, harassment, and the resulting psychological trauma dished out by the Dept. of Corr. staff here at Northern. I was sentenced to death, not sentenced to tourcher (sic) and punitive treatment until death."
It is possible, too, that Hayes could change his mind. Defense lawyers say death-row inmates sometimes push for execution when they have lost hope in their appeals, but then on another day want to fight to stay alive.
In April 2005, Sedrick Cobb, sentenced to death for the 1989 rape and murder of 23-year-old Julia Ashe of Watertown, said he wanted to withdraw his appeals and proceed to his execution. The following month, Cobb changed his mind.
Inmates have that option, Paulding said, up until the very end.
In a private room near the prison's death chamber where Ross was about to be executed, Paulding said he recalled being grilled by officials just minutes before the lethal injection was administered on whether Ross still wanted to die.
"The state wanted to make very sure that he had not changed his mind," Paulding said. "And they were prepared to stop it if he had."

Historical Traveler Reviews Lauderdale Beachside Hotel Fort Lauderdale
Don't go if you expect to sleep
Visited this hotel in March 2004. They rent to spring break teens who overcrowded and partied in the next room and their balcony ALL NIGHT and well into following morning. Despite repeated complaints to management, these noisy irresponsible young adults were barely reprimanded but never ejected from the hotel. Many guests complained to no results. Rooms are adequate, if you don't mind the exposed carpet tacks along the edges at the sliding glass door. I would not stay there again.
A legit 3 stars
I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and enjoyed it. Its right on the beach, so access is easy. The beach side grill/bar is great. They have a pool for the kids and adults near the grill. A nice restaurant inside the hotel. For those on a budget, there is a FULL grocery store right across the street. The hotel rooms have friges and microwaves. The hotel rooms are nice. The rooms fit the 5 star rating in my opinion. Its not top of the line luxury, but its not a rat trap. I saw NO pests or strange odors. The front desk staff I met (Priscilla, Tonya, Nadeen and Aloha) are very nice. This hotel is in walking distance to buy souveneiers and other places to eat. There is a Walmart and Burger King about a mile or so up the street. This part of the beach doesn't do the jet skis or parasaling, the nearest place was north of the hotel in Pompano Beach. The ladies that do the rooms aren't the friendlies, but lets not nick pick. I saw families having a great time as well as couples. I highly recommend this place and I am going back next year. For the price, you can't beat it. Don't forget, it is a 3 star, not a 5 star, so don't expect top of the line luxury, but don't expect a dump either. DO NOT take a cab from the airport to this hotel, let the hotel set up your transportation through a shuttle service they use. FT Lauderdale has only 1 main cab company (Yellow Cab) which is a monopoly and will overcharge you for the trip. The beach rents out lounge chairs, umbrellas, ect. The hotel is about a 20 min drive from the Ft Lauderdale airport and the drive wasn't bad at all.
Great, Loved it!!
I stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and I really enjoyed it. I stayed in a room looking out at the ocean and beach. The room was clean and furnished nicely. I had a little fridge, microwave and a safe in my room. It was quite in the building and on my floor. The beach was great, not too crowded. The outside bar next to the beach is nice and they have a pool for all ages. The people at the front desk are great. Priscilla, Tina, Nadeen and Aloha (thats her real name) are all great. Its a great value. I will be back next year. There is a grocery store across the street and a nice restaur in the hotel which was nice. You can't be it for the price and it is not a dump! Familes are here and seem to enjoy it. I highly recommend it. Tell the ladies at the front desk, Byron say so!!
Public pool and beach
We have been going to Lauderdale by the Sea for several years and have stayed at the Coral Key Inn-this was during the spring and was an adult vacation--wonderful place!!! However, since we had the kids, we felt the Clarion would be a better bet because of the beach, pool, poolside grill etc...
A very pleasant stay
I spent the whole month of july 2003 at one of the hotel's efficiency suites. It was very clean and had all the amenities for a comfortable stay. We had a TV on our bedroom and another one on the living room. The kitchen was well equipped and the service was above average.
In addition, Dammon's (the restaurant on the main building) has great food and is amusing for the kids with all the TVs screens including a unit at your own table.
I spent a month in Lauderdale by the sea every
year and next month I am going back.
I think it's a deal.
Great Hotel my second stay going back next year for #3
Just got back from Florida. Stay at hotel was great
Staff was friendly, arrived at 1030am and room was ready, very clean. Location ,location 5th floor overlooking beach was awesome. Food in restaurant in hotel was good. Will go back next year. You can't beat the price either.
Good time..mostly pro's --some con's
April 10-16-2004--Booked a 6 night stay via Expedia. We were looking for a fairly priced room on the ocean.
Pick Your Location
Stayed at the Clarion for a few nights recently while attending a conference. Our room was across A1A from the main hotel and it turned out to be a good pick. Very clean, responsive staff, and handy location. Had a kitchen and a bedroom as well as living room. Other people attending conference were not impressed with their rooms in the main hotel, looked as though much of hotel toward beach is under construction. Conference facility was good, restaurant was just ok. Be patient with the front desk unless you get Magelin or Jorge, who were both helpful.
Mixed Experience
Although we made our reservations 10 days in advance, our flight was delayed and we arrived after midnight and got one of the worst rooms in the entire hotel. We had a first floor room in the main building, with no view, and fairly noisy. We couldn't open the sliding glass door to our patio, but since the view wasn't interesting we didn't bother to ask for repairs. The sink was stopped up, but a request for repairs solved that problem in 5 minutes. The bathroom was a bit beat up (rust, chipped tiles, etc.), but the bedroom was okay. The double beds were reasonably comfortable. The refrigerator was decent sized (maybe five cubic feet) and the microwave was small but adequate for our weekend stay. The iron and ironing board were a nice touch. The best part is the excellent beach which is reached via a 100 foot walk across a small road. The hotel has a bar and snack shop next to the main pool and beach. For the beach there are cabanas, awning covered tables and benches, and beach chairs. This area has a slightly private feel, which is nice. We had lunch at Damon's, the hotel restaurant, which feels like a sports bar with good food at a good price. All the staff were friendly and helpful. One morning the cleaning crew left an air cleaner running which helped overcome the slightly musty smell. There is a strip mall across the road with a supermarket, drugstore, diner, coffeeshop, bagel shop, and several other very convenient stores. If you want a hotel with great access to the beach for around $100, this is a decent hotel. If you want a nice hotel for $100 and don't have to be on the beach, you can do better elsewhere. Three stars is a bit of a stretch for the room itself. The hotel's facilities compensate to some degree. The fifth floor suites with balconies overlooking the ocean are undoubtedly significantly more desirable.
Worked fine for me
I stayed at Clarion Lauderdale by the Sea May, 2003 and had a good experience. My clean room had 2 double beds, mini frig, small microwave, large double closet w/mirrored doors, ironing board & iron.
There was no odor in my room or the halls--all was normal. I was in the second west of the beach -- the one with the main lobby and restaurant on the first floor. A separate building is East and faces the ocean. It has pool and small outdoor bar. That blgb seemed to have a more "party" atmosphere with music going at the bar. My upper room faced South & had good view of Lauderdale by the Sea fishing pier from the sliding glass door (no balcony, only railing). Standard hotel with no frills. Nice room decor.
