We had a lovely week , the apartment was compact but plenty big enough for a family of 4 (including 2 teenagers). Nice and clean on arrival and all the appliances worked beautifully. We were especially thankful for the air-conditioning although there was pretty much always a gentle breeze coming from the ocean. We favoured the pool over the beach, often using the car to drive to the Portuguese beaches instead which aren't far away. We took a day trip to Seville which was great and even made it as far as Malaga (just over 3 hours with your foot down in a basic rental car, though I would advise allowing 4 hours if you are a nervous passenger and would like a few rest stops on the way!)Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to review my apartment. Your comments are most appreciated. My, you managed to get around a bit didnt you? Good for you! I love my drives out exploring new Spanish resorts/citys and its great being so close to Portugal - two countries in one trip!! It is amazingly close and the beaches mid Algarve are quite different to our Spanish beach. Equally enjoyable, but different and definitely a lot busier. Personally, I'm glad to get back Isla Canela where British tourists are few and far between rather than the norm, but that's a personal preference. I still thoroughly enjoy the trip. I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed your time at our apartment. You were great guests and I hope to hear from you in the future. You will be welcome any time.

Apartment well equipped and close to beach. Made use of beach umbrella, chairs and bike. Pool wasn't open when we were there in early June but looked good. Handy to have access to a car otherwise nothing much nearby apart from beach and pool (should you need more!). We would happily go again.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children.
Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to complete this review. I am pleased to hear you had such a good time at our apartment & that you would happily visit again - we would love to hear from you!! Yes, it is very peaceful & bars and restaurants are within easy reach so I guess your right what more could you need! Though you can meander over to the fishing village - Punta Del Moral, thats quite a nice thing to do & the fish is superb! But yes I recommend a car to get the most out of the holiday that way you can get to Ayamonte (though there is a public bus too), Seville and The Portuguese Algarve easily. Hope to hear from you again - you would be very welcome!!

Fantastic holiday for my husband and 4 year old daughter. The beach was fabulous, you could search for fresh clams in the morning and cook them later!!! My daughter loved the beach. We went in late September the weather was great. We hired a car and explored the beaches in Porugal also. The apartment suited us it was convenient and great location for the beach. Would definately recommend for a holiday with great beaches and good accomodation at a reasonable price.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, tourists without a car.
Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to complete the review. I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay at our apartment. I do agree with you the beach is lovely. My brother stayed there with his family, on his return I asked his 8 yr old daughter what the favorite part of her holiday was. to my surprise, it wasnt water parks, or swimming pool, it was walking out to the "island" with Daddy. The "island" was the sand bank that sometimes appears in the sea where all the cockle pickers go. Yes, it that kind of place. So gald you enjoyed it and I hope you come back and stay there again - you will be more than welcome!

This was our second year visiting Isla Canela and this apartment. Second time around was just as good! The weather seems to be gauranteed, the beaches are long and not too over crowded, the pool is lovely and the atmosphere is generally Spanish. The apartment is of a good standard and everything is well presented. The kitchen is a bit small, but you can cope. The balcony is spacious, and the view a really nice one of the dunes and sea. There are lots of good places to eat, both on Isla Canela and in Ayamonte. If you can tear yourself away from the beach and the pool, which mostly we couldn't - there is lots of exploring to be done. We hope we'll go back again in the next few years.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, romantic getaway.

Wir waren im Juli 2010 hier. Die Wohnung erfüllte all unsere Erwartungen, wie sie auch auf den Fotos zu sehen sind. Sehr schön eingerichtet und mit allem, was man so im Urlaub braucht. Ausreichend für bis zu vier Personen. Auch das Vorhandensein von nur einem Bad schmälert den guten Gesamteindruck nicht. Von der Terasse blickt man unmittelbar auf den Atlantik, der uns durch sein "Ebbe/Flut-Spiel" immer wieder zur Faszination brachte. Die Wohnung an sich befindet sich in einem hotelkomplexähnlichem Gebäude mit Tiefgarage. Die Anlage und das dazugehörige Außengelände machten auf uns einen absolut sauberen Eindruck. Ein Hausmeisterteam war ständig damit beschäftigt, alles in Ordnung zu halten. Der zur freien Benutzung verfügbare Pool hat uns immer wieder erfreut und war ein sehr guter Ausgleich zum salzigen Atlantik, der an dieser Stelle für uns unerwartet "warm" war. In der Wohnung an sich funktionierte alles einwandfrei. Die vorhandene Klimaanlage hat uns bei Temp. zw. 28 - 38°C immer wieder kühle Momente beschert. Für deutsche Urlauber (insbesondere mit Kindern) sei erwähnt, dass der TV fast ausschließlich englische Sender hat. Ich habe mit etwas Mühe nur zwei dt. Sender gefunden. Vielleicht lässt sich hier zukünftig etwas ändern? Der Kontakt mit unserer supernetten und hilfsbereiten Vermieterin Yvonne, hat diese Reise zu einem der schönsten Urlaube werden lassen. Mein Englisch ist nicht sehr gut und trotzdem hat alles bestens geklappt! Yvonne hat sich für uns wirklich überdurchschnittlich arrangiert. Ein Auto ist für Erkundungstouren unbedingt erforderlich. Nach Cadiz , über Sevilla bis nach dem westlichen Portugal konnten wir dadurch viel erleben. Wunderbare Sonnenuntergänge am wunderschönen breiten Sandstrand mit einer guten Flasche spanischem Wein, machten diesen Urlaub perfekt. Übrigens - Yvonne hatte für uns eine "Google map" mit allen in der Nähe befindlichen Restaurants und Einkaufmöglichkeiten erstellt. Dafür nochmals besten Dank! Der Urlaubseinstieg wurde damit zum Kinderspiel. Wer kurzfristig etwas planen möchte, sollte sich überlegen, ein Notebook mit UMTS Stick mitzunehmen. WLAN gibt es leider nicht. Die Touri-Informationsstellen informieren leider nur sehr dürftig. Wer also ruhigen, romantischen und stressfreien Urlaub mag, ist hier genau richtig. Einer Empfehlung steht damit nichts im Wege. Wir würden auch gern wieder hier her kommen.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway.

The apartment was clean, comfortable and had a relaxing vibe. I felt at home instantly. It was easy to get to without any long flights or drives (Faro airport is one hour away) a bonus in my book. Once there, we were able to relax on the quiet beach, or go and seek some night life. The apartment has a big balcony where six people could easily sit and eat dinner, or there are relaxing chairs for a spot of private relaxation, book reading or whatever! With sea/beach views from the balcony, and a lovely pool in the complex, there didn't really seem much reason to go anywhere else. I'm not much of a TV watcher but for the one night in, I was quite glad to have a good range of channels to choose from. The kitchen was a little bit small, but there are lots of lovely and affordable restaurants nearby so it wasn't a problem. Importantly there was a fridge/freezer for storing necessary bottles of rose and tapas nibbles. Despite not feeling like we had to leave the area, we did go for a few trips. Nearby locations including Seville which was just about an hour and half drive. A fabulous city trip, I recommend it if you stay at the apartment. Also went to Portugal; an hour's driving. It is possible to visit Morocco too, but we didn't have time. A great place to stay - I'd go back. I think the good thing about it for me was that it wasn't touristy. You can do the Spanish thing or if you're not too good with the language there are a couple of English bars (although the food wasn't great in the English bars). Sadly I had to do some work whilst I was there, but it was easy to find bars with WiFi whilst having a refreshing drink!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to review my apartment. I'm pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay there. You are absolutely right it isn't touristy in Isla Canela and it certainly gives it that special charm that you dont get with the other Costa's. Glad to hear you would go back too - if I can help you in any way with that don't hesitate to get in touch. You would be more than welcome!

Die Wohnung befindet sich im Erdgeschoss mit einem traumhaften Blick auf den Atlantik. In der Wohnung ist alles vorhanden für einen erhohlsamen Urlaub.Es war alles gepflegt und sauber und es gibt eine Waschmaschiene. Die Wohnung ist gross genug für 2 Erwachsene und 2 Kinder, da nur ein Bad vorhanden ist. Die Klimaanlage ist ausgezeichnet ,auch für kühle Abende, da bringt sie mollige Wärme. Unsere Reise war im Oktober und wir hatten ein traumhaftes Wetter und so konnten wir am herrlichen Strand, der fast leer war , uns erhohlen und im Atlantic baden. Die Anlage besitzt zwar einen tollen Pool, aber ab Mitte September sind die Pools in allen Anlagen geschlossen.Geschlossen sind zu dieser Zeit auch die meisten Geschäfte und Lokale in der Umgebung. Am Aben ist es daher sehr einsam, aber für einen Erhohlungsurlaub herrlich und ruhig. Wenn man Leben will und einkaufen, so ist Ayamonte eine hübsche kleine Stadt in der Nähe, die man mit dem Bus oder Auto gut erreichen kann.Recommended for: Age 55+

Superb location, just in front of the beach on one of the most sunny places in Europe. parking space just 10 meters from stairs and elevator available, if needed. Enough space in the apartment for everyone to get along without annoying one another. Very well equipped kitchen, decent size rooms and bathroom. Very good living room, with lcd, dvd, sat, hifi, some books and a decent quantity of dvd's if that's our thing. Really big pool and a small one for toddlers. Garden well taken care of and a small play area for kids Owner is extremely friendly and will do the best for you to have a memorable stay. Will come again. One note: you'll need a car or to rent a bike, if you want anything more than sand and sea. Another note: groceries in Portugal are 50% cheaper. Try minipreço, pingo doce and intermarché in Vila Real, just across the border.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with young children, romantic getaway.
Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to review our property - your comments are most appreciated. Great to hear you are thinking of coming again to stay with us - you will be most welcome! Great tip about groceries - I didn't know that and will check it out myself especially in this economic climate!! Customers have mentioned bikes to me before - I have already bought one & intend to buy more next time I am in Spain. So hopefully, by next season there will be bikes available too. Will be jolly good fun cycling along the seafront its very flat - so perfect & I can burn off a few calories! Once again, thank you, it was a pleasure doing business with you and hope to hear from you soon.

Very close walk to the lovely long sandy beach,Nice views from the apartment,Very clean good quality apartment and comfortable bed, Kitchen fairly well equipped . Excellent friendly service and contact from the owner. Some nice walks and wish we had taken the time to hire a bike as its very flat . We thought it a bit expensive to eat out there unless you keep to tapas. Our favourite place was Ayamonte. Seville was fantastic but need more than one day there if you are able to. We will stop there again and would have no hesitation recommending this area and property.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, sightseeing.
Manager response: Thank you for taking the time to submit comments - they are really appreciated not least because it helps others get a feel about the place. I am really pleased you enjoyed your stay at our apartment. Hey and we like the same things! I too love Ayamonte - I could just sit in that square and watch the world go by for hours. Seems like its the centre of the community somehow. And as for Seville, well it is fast becoming one of my favourite cities in Europe. Tried it at nightime last trip it was so romantic! Its a shame you found eating out on the island a little expensive. I know some at the Marina can be a bit pricey though not outragous - in my view beach ones are better priced. Think the Euro/pound exchange has definately impacted here too. You are not the first to mention bikes either - gonna have a think about that one and see what I can do. Any way again thanks for comments and I hope we hear from you again. You would be welcome!

We arrived at our destination and to our delight the appartment was in prestine condition with spectacular views of the sea. The week was spent relaxing by the pool or walking along the beautiful beach. There are a number of English bars and Restaurants in the resort if that takes your fancy. It was a breath of fresh air to go away and relax. The facilites within the apartment are excellent and well maintained. you can actually cook a meal in the apartment which is a first. Make sure you watch the sun go down from your balcony. It is quite spectacular! There is plenty of room by the pool and the beaches never get overcrowded. We went last August and have just booked again this year. There is an LCD TV,DVD player and an excellent sound system within the apartment so don't forget your favourite cd's and DVDs. That was great for the kids. Check through the information pack as it lists all the best bars and restaurants / attractions in the area.the apartment feels more like a home than an apartment which is a breath of fresh air. The resort is spotlessly clean and very friendly. There is plenty of entertainment in the evenings and guess what? No lager louts! The best holiday EVER!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

I love the authenticity of this part of Spain. Particularly enjoyed being in the apartment with direct views to the sea was a bonus. Mostly I appreciated the apartment for simplicity of decor and very well kept. I felt very safe in Isla Canela as a single female traveller and in the apartment in general. Would recommend walks along the beach and seafront. Also visiting Marina and eating amongst and chatting with local people of Ayamonte was an absolute pleasure. Easy access to shopping facilities nearby. Visited Portugal and Seville. If you get chance recommend Ayamonte closeby and my favourite.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

My first and pretty much last experience with Adsense was nearly 10 years ago when I ran it on a site with a mainly female audience talking about issues like gender discrimination, and we got repeated ads stating that you could date a hot Asian girl (offline, not on) tonight! FAIL. Guess some things never change.
Other ad brokers let you get far more granular with your blocking choices. For example, you can run the legit "dating site" ads (Match and so forth) without getting anything that sounds like an escort service.

Clayton News Daily
Brownies, cookies and cake, oh my, and look there's a piece of sweet potato pie.
The tables outside Clayton County Office of Solicitor General were laden with all manner of sweets Tuesday as the staff worked to raise money for the annual American Cancer Society Relay for Life event. Tough job, but someone had to do it.
Frosted mini-cupcakes tempted a woman gripping a couple of dollars in her fist.
"Are these red velvet?" she asked.
But what, is that a crispy marshmallow treat? And there is a stack of chocolate cake slices on paper plates wrapped in plastic. Hold on, there is also a basket of cookies and a lone slice of cheesecake. One dessert item wasn't as readily identifiable.
"Is this banana pudding?" someone asked.
"I think so. No, wait, it's a peanut butter parfait," came the answer.
"Whatever it is, it looks yummy," said the customer with the sweet tooth.
Decisions, decisions.
The second annual bake sale raised lots of, uh, dough, for the Misdemeanors Relay for Life Team, said Captain Margaret Spencer, one of the assistant prosecutors under Solicitor General Tasha Mosley.
"Every person in our office has been personally touched by cancer in some way," said Spencer. "In fact, my mother was undergoing cancer treatment when we had the event last year. She is doing much better now."
Last year's bake sale raised more than $700 and the team as a whole raised $1,600, said Spencer.
"This year, we've set a personal goal of $200 per person," she said.
The Misdemeanors is one of more than 30 teams signed up for the Clayton County Relay for Life set May 4 at Tara Stadium. Local participants include teams from Clayton County Fire and Emergency Services, several schools and churches, Clayton County Water Authority, Girl Scouts, Jonesboro Nursing and Rehab, Juvenile Court, Southern Regional Medical Center and Walmart.
Relay for Life started in May 1985 when Dr. Gordy Klatt, a Tacoma, Wash., colorectal surgeon, decided to enhance the income of his local American Cancer Society office. Klatt also wanted to show support for his patients who battled cancer.
According to the Relay for Life website, Klatt donned his walking shoes and hit the track at Baker Stadium at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma and ran for more than 83 miles. Nearly 300 of his supporters watched as he walked and ran, and donated $25 to walk or run with him for 30 minutes. That night, he raised $27,000 to fight cancer.
The following year, teams formed to walk or run a 24-hour relay event with the sole goal of raising money for American Cancer Society. The idea spread across the country.
Each relay starts with a survivors lap to help everyone celebrate a victory over cancer. After dark, luminaries are lit in remembrance of those who lost the fight. The relay rounds out with a fight back ceremony to save lives by fighting back against cancer.
"This is a great organization and a great cause," said Spencer. "We're creating more birthdays."
One piece of cake at a time.

San Francisco Giants Baseball (SF Giants...:
It's that time of the playoffs again… You know, where the San Francisco Giants have their backs to the wall. Barry Zito needs to be the Cardinals stopper, and help this team live to see another day.
Win or lose and the Giants are still coming home. The only difference is, if they're coming home to play again or coming home to start thinking about next year.
It's been announced that catcher Buster Posey has won the National LeagueComeback Player of the Year award (voted by MLB.com reporters). Posey received 27 of the 30 first place votes.
Posey was injured in a plate collision on May 25, 2011 with Scott Cousins. It was uncertain as to what kind of a player Posey would be this year after his horrific injury. As it turns out, Posey is the winner of the NL Batting Title with a .336 average, and now officially the NL Comeback Player of the Year. The only thing next for Posey on the individual front is the NL MVP award (announced Nov. 15)!

The current figures, by contrast, are variable according to births, deaths, migration and marriages, so the values shown here are only a best approximation to whatever was the case when the underlying data was collated and will not be the same as whatever the values are right now. 'N/A' indicates that we don't have data for this name in that country or time (usually because it's quite uncommon there and our stats don't go down that far). It doesn't mean that there's no-one there with that name at all! For less common surnames, the figures get progressively less reliable the fewer holders of that name there are. This data is aggregated from several public lists, and some stats are interpolated from known values. The margin of error is well over 100% at the rarest end of the table! It's possible for a surname to gain in rank and/or total while being less common per million people (or vice versa) as there are now more surnames in the UK as a result of immigration. In mathematical terms, the tail has got longer, with a far larger number of less common surnames. |

Apple Is Living On Borrowed Time [View article]
I will never own a Windows 8 device. I hate Windows 8. I will never own a Goggle computing device, laptop or tablet because Google harvests all the information fed into them for their own proprietary purposes. That info is mine, not theirs, and I won't surrender it to them. -
Apple's Growth Story Is Over [View article]
You have what works for you, I have learned over 30 years some things that work for me. Apple has always been too expensive for me to even think about, Google also. I look for things that appear as close a sure bet as it can be. The crash of 2008, 2009 was one of them. Higher interest rates from here is another.
Sorry for the losses. We all learn from our mistakes. I took a good hit in BPT before bailing. Have made it all back in 6 months, on paper anyway. I think I'll recover my paper losses in TBT. Good luck. -
Apple's Growth Story Is Over [View article]
I consider myself inexperienced at investing. But, when the market plummets several thousand points as it did in 2008, 2009, I'm not concerned about buying in at the bottom. Just that I get in after most of the blood has been shed. If I make a mistake, I can average down by buying more as it continues to drop. But, I believed that at some point it would turn around and it did, thankfully. If I had listened to the analysts, I wouldn't have bought anything at that point. Shorting is not something I have done to date.
" Looking at the chart, you'd have made money following the market and shorting the market all the way into March of 2009. Then going long when the market started to recover. "
This seems riskier to me than what I did. "When" does the market actually begin to recover? This seems like trying to time the market to a degree.
There are a few times, throughout the history of the market, when it's fairly certain what's going to happen. Nov' 2008 was one of those moments for me. Assuming the entire economy didn't collapse, I would make money by investing at that point and buying more if the market continued its down trend. Eventually, it would turn around.
I bought into TBT when I "thought" things had turned around. I'm down about 40% at present, but believe in the long term that will turn into a profit as well. I should buy more as at this point. Rising interest rates looks like a sure thing to me. The question is when. -

Apple Is Still Cool [View article]
Jobs was a genius. The Mac, the IMac, the Ipod, Ipad, Iphone. Then there was Pixar. Yes, Apple is cool, very cool, and Jobs' footprint continues with both companies. It's an American success story that needs to be told to the generations to come, a Disney "when you wish upon a star" fantasy come true.

Apple Does Not Have $137 Billion In Cash [View article]
Essentially, these are investment tools that allow for a higher rate of return than a savings account and have a 3 to 5 year maturity horizon."
This is not accurate. Short-Term Marketable Securities are included on the Apple 10-K, you provided a link to, under "Current Assets". By definition, Current Assets are "cash and other assets a company expects to convert to cash, sell, or consume either in one year or in the operating cycle, whichever is longer." (Chapter 5, "Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows", INTERMEDIATE ACCOUNTING, 13th Edition, 2010, Kieso, Weygandt, Warfield.)
So, generally, no investment having a maturity less than 3 months or beyond a year would be included under this classification. A 3 to 5 year maturity would be classified as a Long-Term Investment, provided the company does not intend to convert that security to cash in the next 12 months.
"Long-Term Marketable Securities
The time horizon on these instruments is 5 to 10 years, at least."
This is also not accurate. Long-Term for balance sheet classification is defined as longer than one year or one operating cycle. The time horizon can be 366 days or longer, not 5 to 10.
"Do not take at face value with what is said in the mainstream media."
Unfortunately, the same applies to your own article. The classification of the $137 billion as "cash" is inaccurate, I agree. But getting your definitions of current and long-term assets right would have given you a lot more credibility.
In the end, there are the SEC reports which spells out everything. Someone relying on just analyst statements shouldn't be investing on an individual stock in the first place. Been there, done that and got burned. -
Apple's Growth Story Is Over [View article]
Apple aside, this is herd mentality. If I had taken this advice, I would not have kept buying into the market in Nov. 2008, when everyone was bailing out, and I would not have kept buying as the market kept plummeting, eventually reaching 6500. I was following Buffett's lead in believing that the time to buy is when everyone is shouting "the sky is falling run for your lives!". When there is fear and panic in the streets is when you should be thinking about taking advantage of dirt cheap stock prices in what you believe will be good investments in the long term.
I traded against the market and I made a great return on my investment. So, I don't follow your logic to always trade with the market. The market is definitely not always right. -

It was you who implied the claim that such problems don't occur in Win 7/8 when, in fact, very little has has changed when it comes to having software issues with Windows. There are still driver issues and other issues causing software hangups and BSOD. But, according to your own words, Apple doesn't have this problem.
While there may be applications whose preferred operating system is Windows, I would wager that the reason is not due to superior hardware or software but due to a half century of IBM having mainframes in such industries (when Apple didn't exist) and developing compatible computers (the IBM pc) to work with those mainframes. So, I consider that part of your argument moot.
I worked with IBM pcs when it had a C:\ prompt when you booted it up and you had to get the syntax correct to load programs and carry out MS-Dos commands. The Mac was a lot easier to work with. So, don't try to sell me that MS Hardware/software is superior. Clearly it never has been. Your supposed "Superior Intelligence" doesn't impress me one iota. -

"Please honestly tell me you had all those problems on Windows 7 or 8 (even XP after service pack 3).
Stop comparing Windows of 12 years ago with Windows of Today."
As you, yourself, have pointed out: "There are bound to be issues with some devices here and there and keep in mind that device manufacturers themselves are always releasing updated drivers that are more recent than the one they shipped to Microsoft which is what is baked into the os."
EXACTLY. Nothing has changed. There are still blue screens of death with the current releases of Windows, NOT ME. That was my point.
Also: "Apple seemingly does not have this problem "
Thank you for making my case for me. :)
As for an IT laughing at me, I am the consumer who uses the damn product. You are the one who fixes the problems. That PROVES my point: you need IT on call to fix Windows problems in a business, or you are in deep do-do. IF WINDOWS 7/8 WERE LARGELY ERROR FREE, NO BLUE SCREENS OF DEATH OR ANY SERIOUS ISSUES, YOU WOULD BE OUT OF A JOB. :) -

I don't. Concerning tablets, I will always want a full sized laptop, not a puny sized and chipped tablet. There is a niche market for such, yes, but laptops and desktops are not going away for obvious reasons. People want lots of screen to do serious desktop graphics design, crunching numbers with wide spreadsheets, creating presentations, and serious office work. Tablets do not cut it in size or power for such tasks.
Jobs is gone and Apple may be in decline as a result of his loss, but I don't believe Microsoft's stock is going anywhere. The surface with a dinky keyboard is laughable. To say Windows 8 is a tremendous success is also laughable, in my view. I like and applaud Apple for the innovation and vision it has brought to the market from 1984 to the present. But all of that may be gone now since Jobs is gone. Nevertheless, Microsoft has NEVER shown such creativity and vision. Instead, they just copy it. They sure as heck will not be the innovators now.

NYPL Debate Rages On.
There seems to be an air of the inevitable in the city's plans to renovate of the New York Public Library's main branch on Fifth Avenue. The New York Times is all over debate on whether the New York Public Library should send half of its 3 million research books to New Jersey to make way for circulation libraries after the Mid-Manhattan Library and the Science, Industry and Business Library are closed. The Times got the debate rolling with an online forum last week and continued with coverage of yesterdays real world panel held at the New School.
Plotting Urban Art Around the World.
Public art enthusiasts, rejoice: An online project called Mural Locator is committed to map and catalog public murals around the world. MuralLocator.org has information on murals in 40 countries, although the U.S. accounts for the bulk of the data so far. Not surprisingly most are clustered in major urban areas. Philadelphia leads the pack, boasting 76 so far. Tags in Alva, Oklahoma and Ely, Nevada attest to the diversity of locales mapped by mural locator contributors. A typical user-submitted entry includes location data, artist information and an image of the work. But it's the description and historical context that make this tool an asset. As the catalog grows, Mural Locator could serve as a digital museum for public art worldwide.
Cooper Hewitt Open for Business.
While the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum's headquarters at the Carnegie Mansion is under renovation (set to reopen in 2014), the museum is popping up in locations across New York City to keep design in the eyes of the public. In the digital world, the Cooper-Hewitt launched its new online store, allowing design enthusiasts to bring a curated selection of products into their homes. The site was launched on Monday by Cooper-Hewitt director and famed industrial design Bill Moggridge at a swanky party in Manhattan's Norwood Club hosted by the museum and party aficionado and Mediabistro founder Laurel Touby. The Cooper-Hewitt also recently launched a website detailing events happening at Design Week NYC.
Retail Reality at WTC.
The Westfield Group made it official yesterday: They will be curating the 450,000 square feet of retail space at the World Trade Center, the New York Post reported. The group made a $93 million payment to the Port Authority toward the $612.5 million deal that will bring retail to the podia of Towers Four and Three, the transportation hub, and along Church & Dey streets. If all goes as planned, an additional 90,000 square feet will be added in Tower Two as well, but first an anchor tenant for Tower Three seems to be the most pressing bit of unmet business.
Bloomberg Applies Sunscreen Legislation.
As if to underline, highlight, and italicize the mayor's support for green design, today New York Mayor Bloomberg signed into law a bill that will allow sun control devices to protrude from buildings up to two-and-a-half feet. If the legislation sounds similar to the Zone Green legislation passed by City Planning back in March, that's because it is. But the new legislation brings this particular building code in line with one of the many zoning codes encompassed by Zone Green.
Little House on the Pier? Residential plan considered for Pier 40..
A new study looks at a variety of revenue-generating makeovers for Manhattan's Pier 40, part of the Hudson River Park and home to multiple sports fields. Commissioned by several organizations who are active users of the pier–the Pier, Park and Playground Association (P3), Greenwich Village Little League and Downtown United Soccer Club–the study concludes that a hotel/residential combo would leave the most open space while going a long way to defray what currently is a debt-filled future for the underfunded Park. But such a plan would face several hurdles, including petitioning the state legislature to change restrictions on in-park housing now part of the Hudson River Park Act. Read the all details in The Villager.
Rudolph Lives! At Least For Now.
The perplexing yet bewitching jumble of concrete boxes known as Paul Rudolph's Orange County Government Center in Goshen, New York has been granted a reprieve. The county legislature voted 11 to 10 against a bond issue which would have funded the demolition of the Paul Rudolph designed building. Preservationists and architects have been following the project closely, and have made compelling arguments against the demolition and in favor of renovation. No word yet on whether the county will move to renovate the building, which suffers from leaks as well as damage from tropical storm Irene.
Zone Green Passes NYC Council.
New York City Planning's Zone Green initiative cleared City Council yesterday, paving the way for new regulations and variances that will help make going green that much easier. Building owners and architects will no longer have to jump through hoops to install a green roof, add solar panels, or harness the wind for power. "The new zoning recognizes what we've seen people designing for their projects," Howard Slatkin the director of sustainability for City Planning told AN back in March. Today, The Times teased out the benefits of the plan through a Q&A interview with Slatkin and Rose Comapanies' Paul Freitag.
Gehry Hearts Asia.
Frank Gehry's first residential project in Asia, a twisty residential tower called Opus Hong Kong, is complete. Total project cost for the 12-story, 12-apartment building? A mere $27,000 a square foot, according to Swire CEO Martin Cubbon. "I would just quit everything and come and just work for them forever," said Gehry on a recent press blitz in Hong Kong, where he praised the "interest and respect" he was afforded.
Surveying the Landscape Landscape.
Good news for landscape designers, and really for everyone. According to the Business Quarterly survey conducted by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), the landscape profession showed improvements in key metrics which indicate the industry's economic state of affairs. Hiring, billable hours, and new business inquiries all increased in the first quarter of 2012, showing marked improvement over the last quarter of 2011. FQ 2012 saw 71.3 percent of firms reporting stable or improved billable hours, and 76.2 percent reported stable or improved inquiries for new work. It's not just good news for our parks and for our campuses, but it's also good news for the economy overall.
Another Rudolph in Danger.
While Paul Rudolph aficionados are in a holding pattern until Thursday, awaiting news from Goshen about whether the Orange County Government Center will be torn down, Design Observer's Mark Lamster has put another endangered Rudolph onto their radar. The Sarasota school board in Florida is considering a renovation of Sarasota High School that would enclose its stepped entryway and canopy. Lamster warns that the alteration "would utterly compromise the Rudolph's vision and the work itself."
Aga Khan Award for Architecture Prize Doubles.
The Aga Khan Award for Architecture, awarded every three years to projects that set new standards of excellence in architecture, planning, landscape architecture, and historic preservation, has announced its prize will double to $1 million. The Award, which seeks projects that address the needs of societies in which Muslims have a significant presence, typically goes to projects that innovate the use of local resources and technology. Recent winners have focused on improving public spaces in rural societies and communities on the outskirts of urban centers. His Highness the Aga Khan explained in a statement, "One of the important aspects of the Award is that winners should be able to reposition their future with the support they get from the Award, both professionally and institutionally."

The 20 Most Anticipated Summer Albums

Heterogeneity of adenosine triphosphate-based chemotherapy response assay in colorectal cancer--secondary publication.
Department of Surgery, Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital and Medical School, Gwangju, Korea.
Yonsei medical journal (Impact Factor: 0.77). 10/2009; 50(5):697-703. DOI:10.3349/ymj.2009.50.5.697 Source: PubMed

ABSTRACT: The adenosine triphosphate-based chemotherapy response assay (ATP-CRA) is a chemosensitivity test that offers the potential of selecting cancer treatments based on the responsiveness of individual tumors. We report a case of 47-yr-old male, presented with sigmoid colon cancer with multiple liver and peritoneal metastases, in which there was a complete response for the primary colon cancer after administration of preoperative chemotherapy selected by ATP-CRA. Oxaliplatin was the most sensitive drug based on the ATP-CRA where the specimen obtained by ultrasound- guided percutaneous liver biopsy was used. After twelve cycles of oxaliplatincapecitabine chemotherapy, abdominopelvic computed tomography revealed marked shrinkage of the liver metastases and positron emission tomography showed no uptake of 18F-fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) either in the liver or peritoneum except localized uptake in the sigmoid colon. The patient underwent an anterior resection and radiofrequency ablation of the liver metastases, which resulted in a macroscopic curative resection of the cancer cells. Histological examination revealed no residual cancer cells in the resected specimen of the sigmoid colon. This result suggested that preoperative chemotherapy chosen by ATP-CRA may be useful for treating advanced colon cancer with unresectable liver and peritoneal metastases.Journal of Korean Medical Science 11/2008; 23(5):916-9. · 1.25 Impact Factor - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We tested the ability of the differential staining cytotoxicity (DiSC) assay to discriminate between sensitive and resistant cell populations in human lymphatic neoplasms. First, the in vitro activity spectra of the most important drugs paralleled the known clinical activity spectra of the same agents. Second, there were highly significant correlations between in vitro chemosensitivity and the results of clinical chemotherapy. Third, specimens from previously untreated patients were significantly more sensitive to the most important drugs than were specimens from patients who had previously received chemotherapy. Finally, metachronous assays performed on specimens from the same patients showed little change in chemosensitivity if there had been no intervening chemotherapy between the times that the first and second assays were performed. However, if the patients had received intervening chemotherapy between the times of the first and second assays, the specimens in the second assays tended to be significantly more resistant than were the specimens in the first assays. These data indicate that the DiSC assay may be of value in the design of strategies to circumvent drug resistance in human lymphatic neoplasms.Cancer treatment reports 12/1986; 70(11):1283-95. - [show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A four-day tumour chemosensitivity assay of potential use in predicting tumour response to cytotoxic drugs has been developed for haematological cancers. The method comprised isolation of white cells from peripheral blood or bone marrow aspirates, drug exposure and incubation for 4 days. Drug-induced tumour cell kill was assessed by differential staining of live and dead cells such that the former could be morphologically identified. Tumour cell viability was subsequently calculated by reference to an internal standard of fixed duck red blood cells. Over 30 drugs have been tested in vitro, all of which have shown a dose response relationship in vitro and given a good scatter of sensitivities from patient to patient within the concentration ranges tested. In 27 cases where the in vitro chemosensitivity could be compared with the in vivo response, there were 7 true positive comparisons (sensitive in vitro and in vivo), 17 true negative comparisons (resistant both in vitro and in vivo) and 3 false positive comparisons (sensitive in vitro, resistant in vivo). A result was obtained in 38 of 50 samples received, comprising 16 of 18 chronic lymphocytic leukaemias, 11 of 20 acute lymphoblastic leukaemias, 5 of 5 acute myeloid leukaemias and 6 of 7 myelomas. The assay appears to show considerable promise as a tumour chemosensitivity test and warrants wider investigations.Hematological Oncology 01/1985; 3(1):1-10. · 2.04 Impact Factor

Interesting program. I kind of wish it would stay on a strictly horizontal plane, or that at least this could be an option. Just getting through a maze like that can be pretty challenging. This program also has interesting mental effects. Try playing it for about 5 minutes and then start scrolling through any web or text document. You sort of expect the document to start spinning in front of you. Anyway, I like the premise of this program and hope the developer continues with it.

I really don't think anybody was being singled out for abuse when that snowman and the reindeer were put out in the yard. And if someone wishes to put out a nativity scene, well, they've got rights, too. If you don't like it, just don't look. Why can't we all make these diverse ways of celebration a time for learning instead of a time of hostility and tempers and taking offense?
In this country, we all have a right to our rights. But shouldn't the rants be reserved for issues that are more, well, life and death? Because if you're raising such a stink about a wreath and a candy cane, what have you left for horrific death and tragedy?
When Sam Levinson came home from school and announced to his mother that "I'm the 'S' in 'Merry Christmas!'", his mother didn't go bonkers and storm the school demanding that this very non-Jewish program be removed immediately for the sake of her Jewish family. She sighed, and smiled, and said "Oy." Her family was secure enough in its beliefs to allow a little participation in other people's beliefs as well.
More people shuold follow her example. What's happened to people? Why are so many people out there up in arms because the majority of this nation's population is happy and smiling and sharing and putting up symbols of a belief system that so many of us believe in? (Instead of protesting, they should just go home and put up their own stuff.)

Don't Doubt South Florida's Matt Grothe, He Just May Prove You Wrong
"Good question," he said Wednesday. "I honestly have no clue."
Despite all of his past success, all of his game-changing highlight-reel plays, an uncanny ability to single-handedly carry his school to unprecedented success, there remains a general consensus that this quarterback's game is fine for college, but not necessarily tailored for the NFL.
Matt Grothe has heard it all before.
"It's been like that all my life," Grothe said. "I can't do this, can't do that. My height, my arm, blah, blah, blah, whatever it is, I've showed I can play."
Grothe came to South Florida five seasons ago. He was supposedly too small, too slow, too far down the depth chart and didn't have the necessary arm strength to start at quarterback. Oh yeah -- he also was too short.
"He's deceiving," said former USF tight end Ben Busbee, Grothe's college roommate. "I remember the first time I met him on our first visit to Raymond James Stadium when they introduced us."
Busbee was expecting someone, well, bigger.
"I said, 'you're a quarterback, right?,' " Busbee said. "Well, let's get ready to play some football then."
Grothe's college football career ended last season on Sept. 19 when he suffered a torn ACL in his left knee against Charleston Southern. Despite his senior year ending barely midway through his third game, Grothe still finished as the greatest offensive force in the history of the Big East Conference, rolling up 10,875 total yards.
All those yards -- and his 75 career touchdowns running and passing -- came before the season-ending knee injury, giving NFL scouts yet something else to question.
"The home stretch is going well, better than the first couple of turns," said John Phillips, Grothe's agent. "It took Matt being 100 percent back from the knee injury for that to happen."
Phillips feels strongly about Grothe's worth to an NFL team.
"To make my closing argument: Are teams looking at him right now like [Sam] Bradford or a [Tony] Pike? No," Phillips said. "But he could replace any third-string quarterback in the league. He could compete with many back-ups and bring some good competition otherwise. He would be a phenomenal option and as far as 'The Wildcat' option, he also brings that to the table."
Then there's the height factor. Phillips said Grothe has been measured between 5-foot-11¾ inches to 6-foot-½ inch with his weight between 207-212 pounds. Phillips is quick to add that a certain Super Bowl winning quarterback named Drew Brees is listed at 6-feet.
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League already have acquired Grothe's rights. That means Grothe can either sign with the NFL team that drafts him, with an NFL team as an undrafted free agent or with Hamilton.
Grothe will have to make a tough decision: sign with an NFL team where, at best, he'll initially be third-string on the depth chart or head to Canada where he would compete for a starting position.
"Matt can take over the CFL," Phillips said.
Grothe and his family are friends with Doug Flutie, who starred in the CFL before playing in the NFL. Grothe said he's talked in the past with Flutie about his experiences in the CFL.
"If I go to the CFL, I'll have the opportunity to go up there and play a lot of football and do what I did in college," said Grothe, who threw for 8,669 yards and rushed for 2,206 yards at USF. "But even if you're the third quarterback on an NFL team, you can learn the system for a few years and then, who knows? Someone might get traded."
Grothe is unsure ultimately what he will do. That decision can wait -- Grothe has more immediate concerns right now, like trying to knock down a 22-foot birdie putt on the par-four, sixth hole at The Golf Club at Bridgewater in his hometown of Lakeland, Fla.
Grothe just misses, but taps in for a par. He finishes Wednesday's round with a very respectable 6-over-par 78.
With the draft approaching, beginning Thursday night and continuing through Saturday, Grothe admits he's getting anxious. He just wants to get it over with.
On Friday night, Grothe will turn his attention to something he enjoys as much as golfing, hunting and fishing. And that's interacting with kids.
He'll visit the Ronald McDonald House at All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Fla. It's a facility for families whose children are in the hospital. Grothe came to Phillips with the idea.
"Matt just gets it," Phillips said. "I don't have to worry about keeping his ego down."
Grothe will have dinner with the kids and their parents, hang out and sign some autographs. After listening to Grothe, he's the one that gets the most out of these visits.
"I grew up in a good family and was a little spoiled," Grothe said. "But a lot of kids don't have the stuff I did growing up. When I got hurt, it opened my eyes a little wider. I felt it was tough being in my shoes, but then I realized there are kids out there that have it 100 times worse than I do.
"I love to talk [to the kids] because they cheer me up."
Early in his freshman season at USF, Grothe definitely needed some cheering up. Busbee remembers after one practice during their first season in 2005, when Grothe told Busbee he was leaving school.
"He said, 'I don't think it's going to work out here. I'm really thinking about packing it up and going to junior college,' " Busbee said. "I told him there was no way in hell he was going to do that."
"There's no doubt he'll make it. Knowing Matt for five years and everything he's done and everything he's been through, whoever gives him a chance will be glad they did."
- Ben Busbee Busbee convinced Grothe to stay.
"We have this whole opportunity ahead of us," Busbee told Grothe.
Now five years later, another opportunity awaits Grothe in either the NFL or the CFL. Whichever league it is, Busbee said it doesn't matter. He's seen this movie before.
"There's no doubt he'll make it," Busbee said. "Knowing Matt for five years and everything he's done and everything he's been through, whoever gives him a chance will be glad they did. He'll turn heads.
"All he's done every year is proven people wrong."
Without naming teams, Phillips said he's talked with several NFL clubs interested in using a late-round pick on Grothe.
"I think he'll play professional football for years," Phillips said. "It may take a year or so to go the Flutie route to the NFL or he could be a career CFL guy if he wants. There's nothing wrong with that."

Ok I might be wrong in this, but I noticed a certain feel about the Ask the Devs. It seems like there alot of, "We like that idea.... but we're not going to commit." The whole idea is to give the players a voice and show that Blizzard is listen. For the Q and A, they choose question based on how many times the question was asked, plus the rating the questions got. Giving the notion; this is a question a majority of what players want.
I would think alot of players, as well as the developer would expect a good idea, that the players want, would get a "you want it, you got" response from the Dev team, as long as is sound idea. That really didn't seem like that guess, if anything there was alot... "buts"
Here's one example I know a HUGE majority of players want, have asked for in dozens of threads, with thousands of posts. The Appearance Tab, which got in the Q and A
Q: Is it possible to let the players create/edit their own looks? - Zed Loft (Taiwan), Vysha (NA/ANZ), Ráchel (EU|German)A: As we said in an earlier Q&A, we definitely hear loud and clear from players that they want more customization for their character. This is something we want to provide, but we want to do it in the right way. Consider the Barber Shop feature. It lets you change your character's hair, but there's not a lot of gameplay to it. We're not sure that feature really added a lot to the game in retrospect. Is WoW more fun for you now that you have a Barber Shop? Are you more likely to keep playing because of it? Maybe, but it wasn't a cheap feature to add in terms of development time. Dumping a bunch of dyes on the game might have a similar effect, where some players might have fun playing around with the system for a bit, but a lot of players might change their colors once or twice and then forget about the feature after that. Now, not every aspect of the game needs a ton of depth and a lot of interesting decisions, but we tend to attract more players to a feature the more robust the feature is. We also think it's fair to argue that the game just needs more armor and weapon art. As we said above, we deliver a lot of art these days, but we also produce an enormous number of new items every expansion or patch and it's understandably disappointing whenever items use the same art. It would be really cool if not every mage or priest converged on the same look after a given expansion or patch.
A majority of the response seemed to a counter response; on what players truly want, justifying why your not going to do it, and how it underminds the work your doing. Now this is just a observation. I'm sort of curious what someone on a debate team, a english teacher who knows about sentence structure would conclude the same idea. It seems counterproductive, and bad business sense. I get development is costly, and you can't make everyone happy all of the time. When the majority asks for something time after time, shouldn't that determine what will truly make the best change?

Product Type: Gelert Tent
Newest Review: ... there and i wouldnt want to be caught in serious weather and have to rely on the Gelert Solo. Pitching is simple as you'd expect from a... more
Great value
Gelert Solo
Member Name: scoi
Gelert Solo
Date: 25/07/11
Advantages: Low price tag, weight, pack size
Disadvantages: Limited waterproof rating
The Gelert range of products are typically low priced and of average quality and performance. This tent has met the first criteria and easily surpassed my expectations on the second.
Its a one man tent and just enough for one at that, which keeps the weight and pack size to a minimum. Great for hiking, mountain bike touring and motorcyclists. It's not DofE recommended but at a third of the price of their recommended 1 man tent it fits the bill perfectly.
There is a small porch area which can be used to store boots and a small pack or in bad weather can be used to cook (not recommended by any tent manufacturer due to flammability of material even if fire retardant) if you're careful not to set the fabric alight. The main area is a generous 250cm in length so all but the tallest can use some of that for extra storage as long as care is taken not to allow any contents to act as a water wick.
It's a very low profile tent which helps keep its stability in the wind but it does mean some interesting times changing and packing your kit especially if you are a larger person. In fine weather it's not a problem as you will tend to live outside. As it is so small in volume it does keep a warm environment for sleeping in but with enogh ventilation to prevent condensation in all but the coldest of trips.
Weighing in at 1.5kg this compares to many one man tents that cost over £100. The difference in price is down to the weather resistance. This tent won't fall apart in wind or rain but with a HH value of 1500mm its certainly not the most waterproof out there and i wouldnt want to be caught in serious weather and have to rely on the Gelert Solo.
Pitching is simple as you'd expect from a one man tent. It is however inner pitching first so if you are pitching in the rain it makes the bedroom tent wet which could lead to an uncomfortable nights sleeping. It's important to ensure that the outer skin won't touch the inner so a bit of peg tweaking is usually needed but at least the outer is keeping the inner dry at this stage. The pegs aren't the best so it may be an idea to replace them with a lightweight and stronger set.
Costing around £30 there isn't much to compete at this price and if you're looking for a cheap lightweight item to complement a roomier tent in your arsenal then there isn't much you will get to compete with this.
Summary: A true bargain item
