Dr. John is Associate Professor of Radiology and Chief of the Pediatric Radiology Section at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, TX. She is also a member of the editorial advisory board of this journal.
U ltrasound has developed into one of the most convenient and versatile imaging tools available today, and in no area has it gained greater popularity than in pediatrics. The non-intimidating appearance of the equipment combined with the obvious advantages of rapid scanning and lack of concern about ionizing radiation make it a perfect tool for many pediatric applications. I confess that I have developed a passion for ultrasound that compels me to try to use it whenever possible. However, our increasingly cost-conscious healthcare system requires us to critically analyze the expenses incurred in obtaining radiologic diagnoses. Duplication of studies to obtain a diagnosis is discouraged, requiring more careful assessment of the circumstances under which various imaging procedures are recommended.
One of the areas in pediatric imaging that has seen the most controversy regarding the use of ultrasound is gastrointestinal sonography. The gastrointestinal tract was once considered an area of relative inaccessibility to the ultrasound beam, but improved techniques and high-resolution technology have expanded the opportunities to use ultrasound in this area in children. In my practice, ultrasound has nearly completely replaced computed tomography and contrast studies for the diagnosis of conditions such as hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and appendicitis, and it is used as a screening tool for intussusception and abdominal masses. However, my enthusiasm for ultrasound is not shared by all radiologists, and a considerable difference of opinion remains concerning the optimal choice of imaging studies for such conditions.
In view of these controversies, perhaps a versatile tool such as ultrasound requires more flexible policies concerning both its use and reimbursement for such use. For this purpose, ultrasound studies can be grouped into three general categories: 1) screening ultrasounds, which usually will be followed by other imaging studies when positive findings are encountered (e.g., abdominal masses, intussusception), 2) sonography to provide specific additional information after a diagnosis has been made with another type of study (e.g., to evaluate for urethral obstruction in a child with Crohn's disease), and 3) ultrasound that can stand alone as a substitute for other imaging studies (e.g., appendicitis). Studies of the latter two types are easily justified, but many of the disagreements about the use of ultrasound revolve around its value as a screening tool.
An imaging study is most useful to screen for a condition if the sensitivity is sufficiently high to preclude the need for additional studies when the findings are negative. Intussusception and hypertrophic pyloric stenosis are examples of conditions which can be diagnosed with a high degree of accuracy by ultrasound. 1-3 An ultrasound which reveals no intussusception obviates the need for contrast enema, to the great relief of the patient. However, some radiologists argue that ultrasound becomes a superfluous study when positive for intussusception because the nearly inevitable enema reduction procedure that follows can also provide the diagnosis. The opposite argument has been made for ultrasound of hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, which is highly accurate when positive, but which some researchers feel must be followed by additional studies to look for other conditions when negative. 4 One possible solution to the dilemma is to establish protocols for the use of ultrasound in these conditions, based on a clinical risk assessment. 5 Children at low to moderate risk for intussusception or at high risk for hypertrophic pyloric stenosis seem to benefit more from screening ultrasonography because additional studies do not need to be performed in such cases. As for the problem of added cost, it may be worthwhile to employ limited ultrasound examinations for minor costs in those instances when additional studies are required. Alternatively, clinical problem-based charges could be developed (e.g., "intussusception workup" or "gastric outlet obstruction/reflux studies") that would allow the radiologist to use ultrasound when needed without incurring additional charges. The ultimate goal of such policies is to allow the radiologist more flexibility in determining the types of examinations that will provide the best information and outcome for each individual patient.
Recent studies have addressed the impact of ultrasound on the efficient and effective management of certain conditions, such as abdominal pain. 6,7 More research is needed to assess the effects of sonography on the short-term and long-term outcome in such conditions in children. On a practical basis, until such information is available, we must individually assess our practice patterns and the level of confidence which we and our referring physicians afford to sonographic diagnosis for these gastrointestinal conditions in infants and children. In a physician's hands, ultrasound is a powerful tool with benefits that are undoubtedly yet to be fully discovered. We should continue to find creative ways to support the use of ultrasound for pediatric diagnoses whenever possible.

No-Till Continues to Grow
The program paired farmers with crop consultants. The one-on-one effort was designed to speed the transition, in part, through communications. The pairing ensured the producer had someone to answer their questions, assist in setting up and adjusting planters and drills and simply being supportive.
"The program demonstrated the importance of not just technical support, but social support, when a farmer is making a substantial change to practices," said Scanlon. "The social part of it includes having other farmers to talk to. That's something retailers can help with, creating an event or forum where producers can talk together. Even if the retailer isn't experienced with no-till, they can provide a service to their customers by bringing in experienced no-tillers. CTIC can assist in organizing informational meetings."*
"What we have found is that farmers really want to learn from other farmers who have tried and failed or tried and succeeded," said Watts. "One of the big things you hear about the National No-Tillage Conference is that farmers feel they learn a great deal between sessions, just talking to other farmers."
Another even more natural role of retailers is also vital to successful no-till transitions, noted Scanlon. "Having the herbicides and fertilizer products no-tillers need is important, as is having the information on how to build a productive system of conservation practices," she said. "There are a lot of variables that go into successful no-till. Having a trusted advisor who can help the farmer understand those variables is invaluable."
Informing growers on available tools is one reason Syngenta and other suppliers sponsor the National No-Tillage Conference. The tools these companies provide have made a big difference in the potential success available with no-till, noted Craig Abell, crop specialist, Syngenta.
"Hybrids with early vigor for early planting and good germination in cooler soils and robust seed care packages like our Avicta Complete Corn and CruiserMaxx Corn brands that protect seedlings from early season insects, disease and nematodes have all made a difference," said Abell. "Of course weed management is critical to no-till, and the evolution of weed species has emphasized the importance of a residual as a foundation and alternative modes of action to take the selection process off of glyphosate."
Abell pointed to the importance of retailers keeping their customers informed about both the benefits of no-till and the tools that can take the edge off of transitioning to it. "There is an opportunity there for educational meetings on how best to use these tools," he said. "With weeds like Palmer amaranth and tall waterhemp developing glyphosate tolerance, the need for overlapping residual and timely application needs to be emphasized. Those four-inch tall weeds need to be targeted. Without good weed control, you don't have no-till."

You never know what you will find on your walk around.
Spring Airlines' Flight Attendants Wear Sexy Maid Uniforms. Just Because.
Could this cause an uproar in the airline business? It seems that history may have a way of repeating itself. In the early days, Southwest airlines started out with this type of theory and it served them well. The old adage of sex sells, surely is part of the advertising culture today. However are today's flight attendants eager to have this image portrayed again? A lot of flight attendants in the industry are male, that in itself is tough enough when it comes to stereotyping. Going back to this concept could prove interesting. If your airline only hired attractive females that were willing to participate in this uniform code, it would be a win win situation for any airline. But I am not sure it would fly here in the USA. We are too politically correct and proper to endorse such a bold move. From a business point of view, it will definitely help business improve but I am not sure of its long term potential. We have seen other airlines with similar concepts (hooters airline) go away fairly quickly.
This is re printed from Yahoo.
Maid costumes are the new in-flight look. Photo: Facebook/Spring Airlines. Flying these days is a total drag. But there's at least one airline out there trying to turn that notion on its head: Shanghai-based Spring Airlines, known for its budget rates, is aiming to make flying fun again with a dash of old-school, in-flight sexism, as it's unveiled plans to dress its female flight attendants up like maids, and their male counterparts as butlers. So far, reviews have been mixed.
"The airline should respect their crew members because flight attendants are still quite different from maids and butlers," one blogger wrote, according to Shanghai Daily. Other critics, said the article, said that Spring should instead focus on making sure flights were on time, offering cheaper tickets and improving services, rather than relying on this "excessive way" of gaining public attention. Some even worried that the costumes, with their high heels and short skirts, could pose a safety risk.
Supporters thought a flight with themed costumes could be fun, and that it was reminiscent of the many "cosplay"—costume-play—eateries that are big in Japan, many of which are known as "maid cafes," featuring pretty, maid-outfitted women staffing coffee shops, bars and even hair salons. And, according to Spring Airlines' Facebook page, the new costumes, may just be the first in an upcoming series of themed flights.
"We're mixing up our flights with some fun onboard themes—like these maid and butler costumes," reads the page's most recent post, from Tuesday. "What's your favorite theme that you'd like to see onboard a Spring Airlines flight? Let us know below and we'll try our best to make your dream come true." As of Wednesday afternoon, the post had just 13 likes and no comments.
There was a time, of course—before security risks and budget cuts became the main focuses of air travel—when airlines placed great emphasis on sassy, stylish flight attendant uniforms. Sexiness was also a big factor back in travel's "golden age," though most U.S. and European airlines grounded that idea long ago to reflect shifting social and legal standards.

"It's one thing to be able to help people out of an emergency exit door, it's another to say they must weigh less than 130 pounds, as Pan Am and others might have done in times gone by," Kenneth Quinn, partner and head of aviation practice at the Washington, D.C.-based law firm Pillsbury Winthrop, told CNN for its recent look at whether sexy fight attendants are really good for business.
Short skirts were de rigueur in 1971. Photo: Getty Images.
"Most governments have enacted laws and other protective measures against gender and age discrimination, as well as fitness discrimination," Quinn said. "But Asian countries have less precise formulas in their labor laws that permit airlines to impose age and appearance limitations upon flight crews." Many, therefore, openly cling to glamor in its ads and on flights, including Singapore Airlines, as well as Thailand's Nok Air, which withstood controversy over its sexed-up calendar campaign in early 2013.

"Maybe Asian airlines emphasize looks just a bit more when compared to European or Middle Eastern airlines," Ji Yang Xiong, director of China's Foreign Airlines Service Corporation, told CNN for its story. "European airlines don't have any requirement on looks. They mostly focus on personality and having the right attitude for the job and a service-oriented mindset."
Whether the Spring Airlines flight attendants have the mindset to match the at-your-service cosplay—and whether passengers are ready to play along—will soon be revealed.
Barely Air: Pilot Talk
This is a pretty funny video if you are in the airline business. The mere fact that they get the names of airplane types wrong is only the beginning. This parody becomes hilarious pretty fast when you start to think of how many guys do a horrible job with their PA"s to the customers in the back. In fact I am sure you can spot the guys on the radio that are trying to have that "cool" airline pilot type of voice. Let's face it (myself included) some of us don't have it. Instead of talking like you have this fake deep entertaining voice, we should play on our other strengths. (a number of things come to mind)

I have a mechanical background, programming background, but no Electronics experience. I have a great idea I came up with that I want to prototype first and then look into higher volume approach. I know all the parts on Adafruit I want, I have a drawing showing the lay out of the components, but where I hit a wall is knowing what platform I need to tie it to. I do not know how to decide if I go with an Arduino UNO, Arduino MEGA, PIC32, Raspberry, etc..
I someone would so kind as to help me direct my attention to answering this question then I can make a major stride in my prototyping effort. I have watched several videos for beginners, but they are just that...beginner level, and do not go into using as many components as I will be. I basically without too much detail, be using a 16x2 LCD panel, several LEDs, a keypad, LED buttons, speakers and that is just the GEN1 model.
I look forward to learning electronics, as I build this prototype, but unfortunately I do not have the patience or time to waste learning how to make a light blink if my end game is so much more than that. Once I know the main platform I will be purchasing everything else I plan to use and learning how to implement each one of them using the videos, etc..
Looking for some initial platform knowledge,

Thousands of years ago our ancestors made the leap from a culture and economic system based on hunting and gathering to one of domesticated animals and planned agriculture. That change transformed the existing social, political, and, eventually, legal structures to accommodate new challenges. Today we are in the midst of another transformation that is testing the existing social, political, economic and legal structures, so painfully wrought to serve the needs of the Industrial Age.
At the most fundamental level commerce, the basis of the economy, has changed. Although in the strictest technical sense electronic commerce has been around since the invention of the telegraph, the emergence of computer networks has propelled e-commerce to the forefront of modern business practice. Today, the use of electronic information and communication technologies to facilitate the buying and selling of goods and services is both commonplace and essential.
This course is designed to provide the student with a foundational understanding of how the legal system in the United States is struggling to accommodate the challenges of the Information Age as the economy, society and everyday lives are transformed by new and emerging technologies. During the term, we will explore the emerging (and sometimes conflicting and uncertain) body of case and statutory law, and discuss the underlying policy concerns, as they apply to the use of new information technologies in the increasingly interconnected global society.

The Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court established the Board of Bar Overseers and the Office of Bar Counsel by rule in 1974 (section 5 of Supreme Judicial Court Rule 4:01). The Board of Bar Overseers collects annual registration fees from lawyers and applies them to fund its operations and those of the Office of Bar Counsel, the Clients' Security Board, and Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers.
Office of Bar Counsel
The Bar Counsel, an independent prosecutor who serves at the pleasure of the Court, investigates grievances alleging professional misconduct against lawyers, and prosecutes formal charges against lawyers before the Board of Bar Overseers. The Board of Bar Overseers may dismiss charges, impose minor discipline, or recommend suspension or disbarment to the Court. The Board also hears petitions for reinstatement to the bar.
Clients' Security Board
The Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court established the Clients' Security Board (CSB) by rule (Supreme Judicial Court Rule 4:04) in 1974. The Clients' Security Board has the duty to "discharge the collective professional responsibility of the bar." To that end, the CSB reimburses clients who have been the victims of embezzlement or misuse of funds by lawyers. These awards are funded entirely out of registration fees assessed against lawyers in the Commonwealth.
Board of Bar Examiners
The Board of Bar Examiners, under the provisions of Supreme Judicial Court Rule 3:01, is responsible for administering the full bar examination twice annually.
Massachusetts IOLTA Committee
The Supreme Judicial Court's Interest on Lawyers' Trust Accounts (IOLTA) program was created by court order in 1989. Under the IOLTA program, lawyers holding funds on behalf of a client must place the funds either in an account which pays interest to the client or in an IOLTA account.
The IOLTA program is administered by the Massachusetts IOLTA Committee, appointed by the Justices of the SJC. The Committee consists of nine attorneys appointed to three-year terms.
Mental Health Legal Advisors Committee
In 1973, the Massachusetts Legislature established the Mental Health Legal Advisors Committee (MHLAC) to ensure that the rights of persons who are or may be regarded as mentally disabled are recognized and protected(G.L. 221, §34E). MHLAC consists of fourteen judges and lawyers, appointed by the justices of the Supreme Judicial Court.
Massachusetts Legal Assistance Corporation
The Massachusetts Legal Assistance Corporation (MLAC) was established by the State Legislature in 1983 (G.L. c. 221A) to ensure that low-income people with critical non-criminal legal problems would have access to legal information, advice and representation. The board consists of the Chief Justice for Administration and Management of the Trial Court (or his/her disignee), and ten attorneys appointed by the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court serving five year terms.
Massachusetts Access to Justice Commission
The Commission was created by the Court on February 28, 2005, in response to a proposal developed by the Massachusetts State Planning Board for Civil Legal Services. The Supreme Judicial Court reconstituted the Commission in February 2010. Twenty-three people were appointed to serve on the Commission; a twenty-fourth was appointed in February 2011.
SJC Justice Ralph Gants and
Commission on Judicial Conduct
The Commission on Judicial Conduct is responsible for investigating complaints of judicial misconduct against state court judges and for recommending, when necessary, discipline of judges to the Supreme Judicial Court (G.L. c. 211C) . The Commission does not serve as an appellate court to review judges' rulings and cannot review, reverse or vacate a judge's decision. Nor does it have the authority to order a judge to step down from hearing a case or to provide a complainant with a different judge.
The Commission consists of nine members serving six-year terms. Three Judges are appointed by the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court, three attorneys by the Chief Justice for Administration and Management of the Trial Court, and three members by the Governor.
Committee for Public Counsel Services
The Committee for Public Counsel Services was established under G.L. c. 211D to oversee the provision of legal representation to indigent persons in the Commonwealth. The Committee consists of fifteen attorneys appointed by the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court who serve three-year terms.
Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers Oversight Committee
Established under Supreme Judicial Court Rule 4:07, the Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers Oversight Committee oversees the appropriate use of the fund for the operation of Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers, Inc. The committee is comprised of six lawyers appointed by the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court to serve four-year terms.

Sales guru offers tips for Black Friday shopping
Brad Wilson, 32, founded BradsDeals (www.bradsdeals.com), a website specializing in price comparisons, coupons and deals, in 2001 as a self-proclaimed "broke college student" at UNC Chapel Hill. Since then BradsDeals, now based in Chicago, has exploded and expanded into a second site and smartphone app devoted to the biggest shopping day of the year: Black Friday.
Shoppers can visit Black Friday by BradsDeals (www.blackfriday2012.com) to view leaked ads, store hours and some of the best deals of the big day as chosen by the site. And it's never too early to start your research; in fact, Wilson says that's key to having a successful shopping trip.
"It's really the one day a year where we get this kind of transparency where we can see what the stores are doing this far in advance. Start researching and make a plan," he said.
So before you lie down for a long nap after dinner Thursday, plan your route and gather your ads. But Wilson also warns shoppers not to forget about the stores who aren't advertising.
How to snag the big buys
"It's really a retail-wide event. The big box stores get the most attention for putting out large ad circulars, but you can basically shop anywhere and they'll be having some sort of promotion," he explained.
Some of the most popular items that will be sought this year will include TVs, Kitchen Aid mixers, Dyson vacuums and apparel. BradsDeals tracks the number of clicks on products, and last Black Friday, televisions received four out of every five clicks on the site.
But just because TVs and electronics get the most attention doesn't mean they're the best deals available. Wilson suggests being open to any deals you see. Plus, prices will usually go back up for a couple weeks in mid-December.
Avoid the rush
Shoppers can expect the usual madness in stores this coming year, but most retailers are taking steps to reduce the rush.
Stores are staggering sale hours more this year, offering certain promotions for only a couple hours throughout the day, and some will be handing out tickets to shoppers who arrive first.
"In years past you got one bite at the apple," Wilson said. "Now you get two or three at least if you incorporate sale times."
The limited quantities of some of the best deals are the main cause of stress and conflict for shoppers, and this year Walmart has a solution.
"For the first time Walmart has guaranteed availability for their biggest deals," Wilson explained. "The limited quantity thing has been a staple of the Black Friday phenomenon, but Walmart has said that anyone who's there between 10 and 11 p.m. on Thursday will get a voucher for their best products."
He believes that will be a game changer for the big day.
Watch out for warranties
The top concern for shoppers this year shouldn't be return policies, as most stores extend those during the holiday season, but store warranties.
"We make a lot of big ticket purchases on [Black] Friday, and you obviously shouldn't buy the store warranty because it's really overpriced. Most products we buy come with a one-year warranty," Wilson explained.
Instead of the store warranty, he suggested shoppers check with their credit card company to see if they offer extended warranty protection. Many American Express cards and VISA Signature cards offer this service.
With extended warranty protection, credit card companies can reimburse you the purchase price of products bought with select cards if the items break. Wilson explained that in many cases you end up with more money than the product costs to replace due to depreciation. If you have a card that offers this service, use it for your Black Friday purchases.
Cyber Monday vs. Black Friday
Even though Black Friday dwarfs the number of purchases made on Cyber Monday, Wilson says it's one of his favorite ways to shop.
"The discount of online coupon codes jumps by about 5 percent that day. Pricing is a little better, discounts are aggressive and there's a big sales tax benefit for many," he said. "If I had to pick one day to shop, I'd pick Cyber Monday."
While it's true that some of the big door buster sales on Black Friday aren't replicated online, many of the other bargains throughout the day could be.
"If I was standing in line on Black Friday, I'd be on my phone cruising the Internet to find the same items I'm shopping for to see if I can find them for a similar price," he said.
What are you shopping for on Black Friday, and which stores do you plan to visit?

If your a blogger and you like this review and feel you want a similar review for your blog, check out this post.
Dear friend....
Thank you so much for this review..
I could not have reviewed my blog half as well as you have done. I am touched and honoured.
I am using the term friend as "dear fool" does not sound nice, although like the fool in the tarot (I am an amateur tarot reader as well) you embody the free spirit and 'joie de vivre' of him.
I am also honoured by the enthusiasm that my fellow bloggers have shown in reading both the review and the blog as well.
Now that you have set the standard so high :-) I will be forced to uphold the quality of my blog and live up to the expectations of my friends.
Thank you my friend once again. Apologies for the delay in thanking you, but I have been walking on a cloud for the past few days and although I have heard of cloud computing, one does not employ it while walking on clouds :-D
Thanks for a comprehensive comment, Santa. I am glad you like my review. I saw you had promoted my review. But I was waiting for feedback. Though I request for promotion of my blog, the happiness of the blogger whose blog I have reviewed is of prime importance to me as also introducing my readers to other exemplary blogs. So I await feedback from my readers on quality of the blog and the blogger on the quality of my review.

The E30-generation BMW 3-series, made from 1982 to 1994, is probably best remembered for ...
By the luck of the draw, Martin Truex Jr. and Kyle Busch will start on row one for Saturday night's nonpoints Budweiser Shootout at Daytona International Speedway. The 25 drivers for the 75-lap, 187.5-mile event drew their starting position during an elaborate "draw party" on Friday night at the speedway.
The event was open to almost everyone in the Sprint Cup Series garage: last year's top 25 in points, former series or Shootout champions and anyone who's won a points race at Daytona and has competed in Cup in recent years. Only 25 of the 33 eligible drivers found rides or sponsors for the event. The eight who passed were Geoffrey Bodine, Derrike Cope, Bill Elliott, Terry Labonte, Mark Martin, Brian Vickers, Ken Schrader and defending Daytona 500 champion Trevor Bayne.
The full grid includes Truex Jr. and Busch in Toyotas on row one, Brad Keselowski (Dodge) and Jamie McMurray (Chevrolet) on row two, David Ragan (Ford) and Kurt Busch (Chevy) on row three, Greg Biffle (Ford) and Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Chevy) on row four, A. J. Allmendinger (Dodge) and Joey Logano (Toyota) on row five and Carl Edwards (Ford) and Jeff Burton (Chevy) on row six.
Chevy drivers Ryan Newman and Jeff Gordon are on row seven, Tony Stewart (Chevy) and Denny Hamlin (Toyota) on row eight, Chevy drivers Clint Bowyer and Jimmie Johnson on row nine, Kasey Kahne (Chevy) and Michael Waltrip (Toyota) on row 10, Marcos Ambrose (Ford) and Kevin Harvick on Row 11, Matt Kenseth (Ford) and Paul Menard (Chevy) on Row 12 and Chevy driver Juan Pablo Montoya alone on the last row.
The race, which Kurt Busch won last year, will be televised live on Fox at 8 p.m.

American Printer's mission is to be the most reliable and authoritative source of information on integrating tomorrow's technology with today's management.
Oct 1, 2010 12:00 AM
At Graph Expo, commercial printers can learn how to decrease
their overall ink spend by up to 46% through the Sun Chemical
Dispenser Program.
Designed for commercial printers to manage what has typically
resulted in an overabundance of spot color inventory and to reduce
the possibility of having the wrong spot color, the Sun Chemical
Dispenser Program reportedly can decrease a printer's overall
ink spend by up to 35% when blending the inks in-house and up to
46% if blended inks are purchased.
Commercial printers can receive the savings and a GFI dispensing
unit along with color repeatability and accuracy, to within
0.001/lb, of their spot colors. The dispensing unit is provided to
the printer at no cost by purchasing a minimum annual amount of Sun
Chemical conventional commercial sheetfed bases and inks. Printers
that sign up for the program will have better control and can
provide a faster turnaround to meet the demands of their print jobs
since they don't need to wait for spot color inks to be
"In today's challenging economic times, commercial
printers are looking for ways to reduce their operating costs and
we responded," says Brian Breidigan, vice president, product
management, commercial inks, North American inks, Sun Chemical.
"At Sun Chemical, we recognized that many printers frequently
end up with more spot color inks than they need that just sit on
their shelves. So we offered an answer that not only allows
printers to mix the exact amount of spot color they need, but saves
them a significant amount of money. It also ensures the right spot
color is mixed."
At the Pitman Company booth (2611) commercial printers can see a
demonstration of the dispensing unit.
Through the Dispenser Program, a printer has access to more than
100,000 colors through Sun Chemical's SmartColour Global
Shade Library. With a spectrophotometer, users can upload spot
color data obtained through the readings to a secure website for
their color formula, or a sample can be mailed to the nearest local
Sun Chemical location. Taking this information, customers will then
receive via email the color formula they need to mix the spot color
Printers that sign up for the program will use Sun Chemical SunLit
conventional commercial sheetfed bases with 20% strength in the
dispensing unit. Printers will also have access to Sun
Chemical's SunLit 4-color process ink systems. The SunLit
commercial sheetfed bases and inks available with this program are
geared for strong print performance, offering ease of use on press
and high print fidelity.

On quantum logic operations based on photon-exchange interactions in an ensemble of non-interacting atoms
- Abstract: The recently proposed idea to generate entanglement between photon states via exchange interactions in an ensemble of atoms (J. D. Franson and T. B. Pitman, Phys. Rev. A 60 , 917 (1999) and J. D. Franson et al., (quant- ph/9912121)) is discussed using an S -matix approach. It is shown that if the nonlinear response of the atoms is negligible and no additional atom-atom interactions are present, exchange interactions cannot produce entanglement between photons states in a process that returns the atoms to their initial state. Entanglement generation requires the presence of a nonlinear atomic response or atom-atom interactions.

For those who went to the Aragon show, and especially those that were waiting in line for hours like me, you know there's a convenient Starbucks on the corner. Before the show last night at around 4:30pm, I went in for a warm-up and to order a latte. Scott had ordered one person in front of me because when we went around the other side of the coffee bar, I could instantly tell it was him! I waved to him as he was waiting for his drink. He waved back. I ordered and he was still waiting for his drink. So I walked up next to him and asked what his drink was. He had ordered a Quad Grande Latte. That's 4 shots of espresso! He said to me as you get older, you find you need more and more shots of espresso. We chatted for a bit more about coffee and tea and before he left, we shook hands and I told him "Have a great show. I'm really looking forward to it." He said "Looking forward to seeing you there" in a very genuine way. He was very cool to me and I will always remember that.
Thanks Scott! You're awesome man.

Olfat Mohammad Barayan | Engineering Technology | Shinming Shyu | A Study on Sustainable Material in Historic Architecture in Saudi Arabia
The concept of sustainability in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) played an essential role in cultural, environmental, and economical areas a long time ago. This concept has been applied in historical villages and traditional buildings as well. All of these dwellings and settlements are a treasure today. Therefore, the Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities (SCTA) and The National Built Heritage Forum work hand in hand to renovate and restore these valuable resources under sustainability definition. The building materials most often used in these buildings were sustainable ones, such as stones and mud brick. In this presentation I will provide essential characteristics about mud, brick, and adobe, and why they are good examples of sustainable material.

Jennifer Benson | Engineering Technology | Shinming Shyu | Sustainable Strategies for Hotel Design
According to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, the hospitality industry spends $5 billion every year on energy and consumes about four billion kWhs of electricity. Considering these staggering numbers, the hotel industry is a good candidate for becoming more sustainable. Hotels can use many of the same sustainable practices that residential and other commercial buildings use; the challenge is that hotels are a 24/7 business. This project will look into many of the sustainable options available for hoteliers and take into consideration cost effectiveness, convenience, and appeal to the average hotel guest. Sustainable practices to consider include energy efficiency, sustainable exterior and interior materials, and water conservation. This project will also explore how to make energy conservation measures appealing to hoteliers.

Holly M. Brown | Engineering Technology | Maria Sipos | Can Sustainable Hospitality Design Influence Behavior
Interior designers can influence behavior with their designs. If a hotel is designed in such a way that it's easy to recycle, the designer could influence a person to act in a sustainable way. The easier a task is to do, such as recycling, the more likely people are to do it. Using smart design and sustainable products is just a start to influencing the population to be sustainable. A designer's job is to make sure the design is done in a way that will make people stop thinking about recycling and just do it because it has become second nature.

Na Han | Engineering Technology | Maria Sipos | Effects of Passive Solar Systems and Materials on Sustainable Design
Sustainable design is ecologically friendly design that enhances both the environment and human life. The effective building system in sustainable architecture and design is the passive energy system. This system uses location, insulation, and materials for generating heating and cooling systems in optimized conditions. Passive solar energy design can reduce negative effects on the Earth and is concerned with protecting the environment and preserving natural resources for future generations. For these reasons, interior designers should start to implement passive solar design principles and materials. Moreover, using passive solar energy helps sustain the environment and has economic benefits including preserving energy and reducing construction waste.

Megan J. Hromco | Engineering Technology | Maria Sipos | Aspects of Memory in Design
Abstract Science influences the fields of architecture and interior design. A new contributor to the field is Neuroscience. Neuroscientists found that certain parts of the brain control human memory, which has a significant influence on humans' experience of the built environment. Three important types of memory are archetypes, proprioception, and cognitive memories. By understanding memory, designers can be more precise when solving problems, improve navigable spaces, and better communicate with clients. This knowledge impacts design considerations in health care, with the elderly and those with brain disorders or injuries. Discoveries in neuroscience will continue to influence the fields of architecture and design.

Amanda L. Kaserman | Engineering Technology | Maria Sipos | Wayfinding Strategies for Residents Suffering From Dementia
This research compares the available literature on wayfinding for people suffering from dementia. Dementia is an incurable memory loss disease, and its incidence is rising as the elderly population grows. Wayfinding is a tool that helps people feel self-sufficient and independent. Architectural typology plays an important role in the experience a person has inside a space, and two of the most popular and beneficial ones are described in this presentation. The other design strategies addressed are signage; indoor design elements, such as color and lighting; and sensory stimulation. With a growing elderly population, research on wayfinding in dementia-friendly environments is fundamental to help benefit the people diagnosed with dementia.

Katherine J. Maxim | Engineering Technology | Maria Sipos | Designing A Four-Generational Office
As the workforce evolves to span four very different generations, the workplace must be designed for everyone's optimal productivity. Therefore, framework must take into account the differences and similarities of how Traditionalist, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y work. These will drive what each generation needs to work independently and in a group setting. It will also show the importance of moving between these different types of work, and how the environment can better enable the transition between the independent and group work. All employees must be provided with adjustable workspaces to accommodate their wide range of differences. The office needs to be an environment that provides focus, because none of the generations benefit from multitasking.

Anna E. McComb | Engineering Technology | Shinming Shyu | Economical and Aesthetic Aspects of Photovoltaic Systems for Residential Applications
My research will address the cost, installation, and efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) solar panels in residential applications. The installation research will not only explore new, innovative, and economical installation methods of the solar panels but will also discuss the possibility of finding more aesthetically pleasing installations for residential applications. My research will study the economical/financial pros and cons for using photovoltaic solar panels and will show the relationship between cost of installation and maintenance and the amount of energy conserved and produced. I will provide a detailed outline that will show the potential environmental, financial, and economical benefits of using PV solar panels.

Kimberly A. Michels | Engineering Technology | Shinming Shyu | Business Profitability and Environmental Sustainability: A Case Study on IKEA
Businesses have long been focused on profitability, disregarding the negative impacts their business practices have on the environment and their customers. Using IKEA as a case study, this presentation explores steps companies can take to promote globally responsible business practices while remaining profitable. IKEA has taken aggressive action: eliminating disposable bags, ending the sale of energy hungry incandescent bulbs, and utilizing both geothermal energy and solar panels, all in an effort to reduce the carbon footprint of their stores. The continued success of IKEA demonstrates that in today's global market, a business can shift emphasis from the traditional profit only driven mentality to one that is also more socially and environmentally responsible and thrive while doing so.

Linda Montgomery | Engineering Technology | Shinming Shyu | Sustainable Design: Green Roofs
The main goal of sustainable design is to reduce the negative impact buildings have on the environment. Although there are many sustainable strategies, this study will look specifically at green roofs. Green roofs are a growing trend in sustainable design. This study will introduce what green roofs are and will highlight their many environmental, social, and economic benefits. Furthermore, I will show existing examples of green roofs to show not only their benefits but also how and when they should be installed. Additionally, I will explain the components and parts of a green roof, to give an understanding of the overall technology involved in using it on a design project.

Steven Aiello and Flora Du | Technology Studies | Brad Wilkerson | Compliance vs. Security: Is it Money Well Spent?
In today's IT and business world, there is a need for transparency and control. The current trend in government and business space is to achieve a sense of control over complex environments through compliance standards. These compliance standards can be government-imposed or business sector-based. These processes are time-consuming and costly for many businesses. So we need to post the question: Do compliance initiatives actually accomplish the intended goals? We wish to examine this question to see if these compliance standards truly provide a benefit.

Najma E. Jamaludeen | Technology Studies | Subhas Ghosh | Recycled Runway: Re-polymer, re-fiber, re-fashion
The United State's textile and apparel industries are significant contributors to the solid waste stream and are called one of the worst offenders in terms of pollution. While both natural and man-made fibers contribute to the industry's waste stream, the inherently unsustainable polymer-based products and man-made fibers have a greater impact. To help to decrease this impact, some apparel manufacturers have employed recycling systems that break down discarded polymer-based products and reprocesses them into polymer chips for the manufacture of post-consumer recycled (PCR) apparel and other textile products. This research examines the performance ability of three PCR polyester knit fabrics, currently used for the design of sportswear, to the performance specifications of a couture design and implicates possible ways that PCR textiles in the apparel industry can be expanded.

Oct 25, 2013This location of this hotel is unbeatable.
It is in Downtown and attached to Seaport Village.
If you are traveling with a family you should know that it is not a big resort hotel in fact it caters to a largely business and convention crowd.
The rooms are large but are not as modern as some other Hyatt's
The Sunday Brunch is a must if you are staying over a weekend.
It is served outdoors on the back terrace facing the bay and is lovely.
Also there is a rooftop bar that everyone flocks to at sunset for great cocktails and stunning views.
Just go early because it fills up fast! - Manchester Grand Hyatt San DiegoAmbassadorBecky MahanMember ofStudentsBackpackersOct 22, 2013
I just drooled every minute I spent here. The beds are huge and soft, and swallow-you-up comfortable, which was a huge perk for me. And the hotel itself is huge, it's spacious, it's luxurious and yet tasteful, it's conveniently located, it's easily accessible...and the views are to die for. Especially in my room, on the 27th floor with a panoramic window, I could see everything from the distant San Diego mountains behind the city to the edges of Point Loma on the opposite side. Look straight down into Seaport Village, then ride the elevator (beware: it moves fast and always plugged my ears) down, step out the back door -- and you're already in the village, without taking another step. Or exit the grand front entrance and look all around you to choose from the Convention Center (a pleasant stroll away beneath palm trees), the Gaslamp Quarter, Horton Plaza, and a myriad of other choices. Bottom line: if you can get a deal, don't even second guess yourself - this is one fabulous hotel from all angles.

Aug 02, 2012The hotel has an ideal location in San Diego no matter your trip reason. The waterfront and bay view, Embarcadero, Gaslamp, the Convention Center and downtown itself only a few steps away. Give yourself a few more hours of sleeping and enjoy a classical breakfast in your room. Prices are not low, but the quality of room services are a plus Hyatt in SD. You should also give a try on their NY style cheesecake with strawberries!

Aug 13, 2013This Hotel has a great location in San Diego. It's at the edge of the water where the Naval Carriers rest, the Seaport Village shopping is right out the back door, it is next to the San DIego Convention Center, and the lively Gas Lamp Quarter is a block away.
The hotel has 2 separate towers, both about 33 stories with 750+ rooms, separated by the regal main lobby, with its large horizontal atrium and marbled floors, more reminiscent of a European Cathedral than an American hotel.
There is a large ballroom directly behind the check in desks for events. The check-in staff are mostly young, and many in my groups reservations were mixed up a bit. Each time there was a request to change the bookings, the staff would have to go to a back office, almost like a car dealership, to work it out before re-emerging with an answer.
At the base of each tower are separate amenities, like restaurants, bars, seating areas. One lounge has a pool table.
The rooms are average for hotels in this category, although there are no luxury type items, like bathrobes in the room. They are average in size, too.
This hotel was built on old Naval property by the Manchester Financial Group, getting $230 million in funding back in 2001 to anchor the San Diego Convention Center complex, with the Marriott Hotel on the other side. Papa Doug Manchester is the head of the Financial and Development Group.
The hotel has had international dignitaries stay here, and their are photos depicting this on the walls. The hotel was hit hard by the current recession, but they dropped their rates and aggressively booked sweetheart deals for convention groups. This hotel is easily over $200 a night, although I got a group convention rate of $189.

Oct 19, 2013I spent a weekend with some girlfriends here and it was great. Beautiful rooms and great location. The best part was the cocktail lounge upstairs - I don't know if there is a better place in San Diego to watch the sunset.

Aug 13, 2013I've not stayed in the hotel, as I'm a San Diegan, so can't comment on that aspect. What I can say is that the "Top of the Hyatt" bar (on the top floor) is one of the best places to hang out and watch the sunset over Pt. Loma and Coronado. Really can't beat it on a nice day (which are plentiful in SD).

This time, the Pittsburgh Pirates never saw it coming.
Not in June, when their slumbering offense erupted behind the bats of Andrew McCutchen and Pedro Alvarez. Not in July, when they moved into a tie for first place in the National League Central while turning an obscure movie reference into a mild cultural phenomenon.
Not even in August, when a 19-inning victory over St. Louis served as a bit of karmic justice after that fateful night in Atlanta in 2011 when a botched safe call by home plate umpire Jerry Meals seemed to turn a once-promising season into just another 90-loss campaign to stack next to all the rest.
Nope, this time there was no moment when things went awry. Instead, the Pirates unraveled slowly and steadily over the final seven weeks, somehow turning a 16-game cushion over the .500 mark in early August into a 79-83 finish and a record 20th straight losing season.
The Streak lives on – again.
"I understand we're under a pretty big microscope and everybody wants to try and figure out what happened," reliever Jason Grilli said. "Well, it's basically in the beginning we played good. The second half we didn't. End of story."
One that's become all too familiar for baseball's most beleaguered franchise. Only this time it felt different. The Pirates vowed they'd learned their lessons after their freefall over the last two months of the 2011 season. They printed t-shirts with the words "finish" splashed across the front. They signed All-Star centerfielder Andrew McCutchen to a lucrative contract extension and traded for A.J. Burnett to give the pitching staff the ace it desperately needed.
Led by Burnett's fierce competitiveness, the Pirates survived an April and May in which the offense all but disappeared then took off in June when McCutchen developed into an MVP candidate and Alvarez became the slugger management envisioned when Pittsburgh drafted him in the first round of the 2008 draft.
The team even adopted a catchphrase and a hand symbol – "Zoltan" – from the movie "Dude, Where's My Car?" that led to a cottage industry of t-shirts and had everyone from politicians to elderly fans flashing the "Z."
By the final week of the season, the "Z" had been replaced by "L" after "L."
McCutchen cooled off. Burnett struggled at times. Gaby Sanchez and Travis Snider, acquired at the trade deadline to give the offense some pop, fizzled. Starter James McDonald's brilliant first half vanished into a miserable post-All Star break funk that had him in the bullpen by September. Second baseman Neil Walker's balky back robbed the lineup of perhaps its steadiest performer.
Taken at face value, the Pirates' best season in 20 years would be seen as a sign of progress. This is the same club that was a major league worst 57-105 two years ago.
Yet after flirting with heights not seen since Barry Bonds was roaming the outfield at Three Rivers Stadium two decades ago, Walker's aftertaste of "the Collapse 2" will linger well into the offseason.
"At the end of the day we've got to find ways to improve over the course of six months," said Walker, a Pittsburgh native. "From personnel, coaching, the front office, everybody has to when the tough times come, get the most out of it."
If the Pirates want to break through, they don't really have a choice. There appears to be no major front office shakeup in the offing after team president Frank Coonelly pledged general manager Neal Huntington and manager Clint Hurdle will return next spring.
Getting rid of the organization's most successful manager since Jim Leyland makes little sense, though Hurdle knows his team needs to learn how to develop the mental toughness required to survive 162 games. The Pirates have gotten good at handling the first 110 or so under his watch. It's those last 50 that need work.
"I believe we are headed in the right direction, and no, we're not happy with the finish at all," he said. "I just know there's more to do. There's unfinished business in front of us."
Though Hurdle insists Pittsburgh's "street cred" is improving the Pirates are unlikely to make a major roster overhaul in the offseason. Burnett, Wandy Rodriguez and James McDonald are locks for the rotation. It's likely closer Joel Hanrahan and his 37 saves will be back. The only real positional concerns are the corner outfield spots – where four players including highly touted Starling Marte are in the mix – and catcher.
Odds are the team that takes the field on April Fool's Day to open the 2013 season against the Cubs will look an awful lot like the one that slumped toward the dugout after a season-ending 4-0 loss to Atlanta on Wednesday afternoon.
That's not necessarily a bad thing said Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez, who endured a September collapse of his own with the Braves last fall. Rather than blow things up, the Braves let their young nucleus develop and ended up making the playoffs a year later.
"You give your people a chance to work and hopefully the core is there and hopefully they learn from what they've gone through and they take a step forward," Gonzalez said.
The Pirates believe they took two forward in 2012, only to take one major step back in the final month.
The numbers bear out the optimism. A team that couldn't hit a lick in April and May finished with 172 homers, fourth-best in the National League. Burnett won the most games by a Pittsburgh right-hander in over 20 years. Alvarez's 30 home runs were the second-most by a third baseman in team history.
Taken in the context of a full season, McCutchen believes that the Pirates showed progress no matter how bad things got during their September swoon.
"We're definitely a stronger team," McCutchen said. "We showed we were stronger through a definite period of time we just weren't able to hold the lead that we had. It's something that's a work in progress ... but every year is hard to take when you don't end up where you want to be."

Most stores you can rob have ATM's in them, check your map first for players, then deposit. Faster than a phone, lower risk, as you aren't standing around doing nothing in the middle of the street. You've just got to use a bit of sense about when to do so

Recipe by MANOUCHEHR DELSHAKIB
"Good looking chicken grill, very delicious for all ages."
Watch video tips and tricks
3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch cubes
1 cup fresh onion juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup lime juice
1/2 teaspoon powdered saffron
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
freshly ground black pepper
Here is another good Persian recipe! You can't go wrong with this. Remember...the longer you marinate the better!
I love saffron, and this recipe was divine. I served it with an herbed rice pilaf, and it was super delish. I marinated overnight, and suspect the longer it marinates, the better it tastes. Helpful hint: I made the onion juice by chopping an onion and then squeezing the juice out with my potato ricer. It worked pretty well.
6 Ratings
It's yummy alright.
This was a nice dish. I made the onion juice by finely grating an onion. Although this was good, the onion was more prominent than I would have liked. But it was a tasty dish.
it is really tasty. it is valuable to try!
