This luxurious, 110-room boutique one block from Union Square is an enclave of posh rooms and pampering service in a dense city. There aren't many features here -- just a gym and a small business center -- but its top-notch service and luxe room amenities make it one of the city's most special hotels.
Known for its Redwood Room bar, the Clift's hip scene is typical of the Morgans Hotel Group, which bought the historic hotel from Four Seasons and reopened it in 2001 after a makeover by Philippe Starck and Ian Schrager (the latter of Studio 54 fame). The lobby and the 350 small but comfortable rooms are short on amenities but high on scene and style.
Clean, affordable and quiet, the Hotel Nikko seems more like a boutique hotel than the mid-size chain it is. Its cultivated Japanese-luxe image, apparent in the lobby and pricier suites, doesn't quite extend to all of its guest rooms (though most were renovated in 2012 and are more attractive than the older ones). On-site, for the business set, there's an excellent lap pool, fitness center, and ample business services.
After its 2009 renovations, the big, bustling, 1,010-room Parc 55 hotel has some great, modern touches -- big HD flat-screens, an extensive contemporary art collection, and top-notch equipment in the fitness center. It's a fine choice for Union Square, four blocks from the theaters and fashion boutiques, but the nearby Marriott and Hilton hotels are both very comparable.
Not as conventionally luxurious as some Union Square-area competitors, but so filled with interesting touches and thoughtful extras that you won't notice. The rooms are smallish but have wonderful beds, quirky-yet-elegant style, and state-of-the-art technology. The service is rock solid. And the lobby is a great place to hang out, especially for the free wine receptions and morning coffee.
The St. Francis combines the history, decor, and traditions of a turn-of-the-20th-century grand old dame with the amenities, modernity, and corporate-dominated clientele of a large chain property. If you find a better deal at the similarly priced Palace or Meridien -- also business-oriented Starwoods -- go with one of those. If not, the Westin is a perfectly pleasant option.
With 1,908 rooms and meeting space galore, this is the largest hotel in town. Business features are impressive, the restaurant is surprisingly nice, and the gym is well equipped. But rooms vary from impressive to so-so. Crowds of convention goers and business travelers make it difficult to find peace and quiet, or to get help without waiting in a long line.
This 660-room Hyatt offers all the standard amenities of a mid-range city hotel, with a few extra touches. Its Union Square location and spacious rooms make it a good choice for business and leisure travelers who want a lot of comfort without paying top dollar.
Near the designer shops and theaters in Union Square, the 400-room San Francisco Marriott reopened after renovations in 2009 to show off new guest rooms and a new fitness center. It can be a great deal, especially when it's compared to the two other Marriotts in Union Square, but unlike many mid-range hotels, there is a pesky fee for Wi-Fi.
The JW Marriott -- the chain's high-end brand -- tries to keep pace with the town's luxury standard-bearers with touches like 24-hour butler service and 42-inch flat-screen TVs in the spacious rooms. But with unremarkable room decor, no destination restaurant or spa, and so-so service, the hotel is just a better-than-average chain hotel.

Optical Illusions Update
"QUANTUM SHOT" #228 Article by Stefan Van den Bergh & Avi Abrams Your eyes see one thing, your mind believes another! Welcome our guest blogger Stefan Van den Bergh, who runs the "Planet Perplex" website. He writes: "I've been fascinated by illusions and everything like it for as long as I remember. Over the years I've made several sites about them, and built an extensive collection." It's been long since we had an article about optical illusions, so it's time for another installment in this highly popular series. These don't move Akiyoshi Kitaoka is a famous creator of moving illusions. That is, they seem to move but they don't. Warning : these illusions are so strong that sensitive observers might feel sick. You will understand when you see them full-screen. The first example is probably the most famous of them all and a favorite in poster stores: Rotating Snakes ! Make sure you click to enlarge. When watching this picture, you might want to check if your flatscreen is still flat. Maybe it actually IS rippling. These rotating ladybugs are rather unknown but extremely convincing. You just can't believe this is not an animation. (Watch fullscreen, bigger is better.) The last not-quite-moving one is also a classic but too good to leave it out. Stare at the black dot and move your head back and forth from the screen. The wheels will start turning ... These do move - in strange ways This little animation is fast becoming very popular - and no wonder: when you first look at the spinning girl, her rotation is probably clockwise. But if you start to concentrate on her shadow instead, suddenly her rotation switches to counter-clockwise! It may take some time, but the moment it happens, you are going to be genuinely surprised... (first seen here) This ferris wheel animation is similar to the one above. Look at the left side of the wheel, and it will rotate to the left. Look at the right and it will rotate there. If you play around with it, you can make it turn wherever you want. Try it! Unique Stereo Pictures can be created using a simple animation effect. This pool animation has only two frames, but looks convincingly three-dimensional. See more "stereo pictures" here. Just a point of view Have a look at this photograph of Neuchatel, Switzerland. How long would it have taken Felice Varini to put the red lines there ? Five minutes, with a pencil and a ruler ? v I don't know exactly but it would have been much, much longer. You see, the red lines are actually painted on the buildings. He just took buckets of red paint and got into town, as you will see below. This illusion only works from one exact point of view. Here are some more examples of his work (there are dozens more at his site) Another superb example of Varini's 3-D work is the Cardiff's Harbor, where the whole site became a "canvas" for Felice Varini's shapes, which could be discovered only from a specific viewpoint... 3-D Transformations Shigeo Fukuda is another great point-of-view artist, "Master of Transformations". See for example his "Underground Piano". It looks like a large pile of junk, but when seen in a mirror just right, it's a perfect image of a piano. Here is "Encore" sculpture, which changes into different musicians, depending on your point-of-view. (via Growabrain) Shadow Sculptures Again, by Shigeo Fukuda - watch this video to see the shadows transform a pile of junk. Our illusions coverage will be incomplete if we don't mention other "shadow sculptures" - see a superb page here But point-of-view illusions can also happen just by accident. And when they do, the result can be hilarious ... (image credit: sepultura) For an interesting case of "cover-up" viewing-angle illusion (and a study of Medieval morals) see this page Now you see it ... Now a bit of magic - let's make some stuff disappear. The first illusion is a classic, but keeps baffling me every time. Stare at the black cross in the center. Within seconds, a green ball will appear. And a few seconds after that, the green ball starts eating the purple balls, until there's nothing left ! This one has no moving parts. Just look at the black cross and see the colored fluff fade away until everything is gray. See how easy your eyes are fooled ? Speaking about elusive color... This link is simply mind-boggling. Follow the instructions to see the color appear out of black-n-white image of the castle. Click here Adding to more well known images (see our first part), here is a variation of "shading illusion" - these two cubes are the SAME color! Illusions in Advertising Discover darker meaning in this fine example of "hidden image" advertising: For those with a lot of time on their hands, here is a great image from Mighty Optical Illusions - try to find all 82 Absolut vodka bottles in this drawing: (click to enlarge) (image credit: Mighty Optical Illusions, and Edith Wentz) San Francisco Red Cross awareness ad campaign is slightly shocking, depicting the same street-scape after some kind of cataclysm: (seen here) A bit nicer locations are shown on the following Club Med ads - with a cute face in each one. Sometimes there is no need to "enhance" Mother Nature with a Photoshop job: check out this "portrait" of the actual rainforest insect: (courtesy Darlyne Murawski) Article by Stefan Van den Bergh, "Planet Perplex" (with Avi Abrams) for Dark Roasted Blend. - (want to join our team of writers? contact us, see guidelines here) READ PART 1 HERE Permanent Link...

I had seen those shadow sculptures about a month ago and decided to try and achieve one myself. I created the shadow of a cat. There is a picture located here: http://nicolerae365.blogspot.com/2007/07/shadow-art.html
Please tell me what you think! - Avi Abrams said...
Elliot, nice kitty there.
must be hard to set up these things... - B. Durbin said...
No matter how hard I try, I can't see that girl spinning clockwise, but I think it's actually a mental map problem in my case. You see, I know how to dance, so the only logical way to spin is with the leg trailing, so my brain automatically rejects the alternate interpretation.
The Ferris Wheel right after it works fine, but the green dot doesn't get to eat all the magenta ones— tricksy little guys keep popping back up. - said...
Try to concentrate on the tip of her shoe (the one closest to the ground), then blink and shift your gaze - seems to work for me.
- said...
I also can't see the spinning girl change direction, not matter how hard I try. The ferris wheel is impressive though.
- said...
B. Durbin,
Whether she is spinning clockwise or counter-clockwise, the leg is still trailing. Blows my mind.
-Hal - said...
whats the hidden image in the poison ad? and how am i meant to see it?
- Avi Abrams said...
Hi Princess... it's a skull. Really scary, actually.
- Paul said...
the 2 cubes aint the same colour, open it in paint and join them together and you'll see
- said...
Paul: true, but the "lighter" cube is actually darker!
- Data Recovery said...
its indeed cheaper to recover any lost data in Africa than in the west send your damaged Drives,Corrupt RAID Servers to East African Data Handlers, ITS CHEAPER TO RECOVER YOU ALL YOUR LOST DATA!
- said...
B.Durbin it sounds like the problem is that you are looking at it as the same leg. Don't think of it as one leg either trailing or leading, rather think of it as the right leg trailing for it to spin in one direction, then think of it as the left leg trailing and it will spin in the other direction.
- said...
The trick with the spinning girl is to concentrate on the shadow of her toes on the leading foot.If you catch it just as it comes into view on the left side, she reverses direction...then on the right side, she reverses direction again. Quite an amazing little illusion.
Thanks, Stephen B. - said...
Oh my. After staring at the spinning girl for about 15 minutes, I was able to make her switch directions whenever I wanted 'her' to. The downside is, I now have a bad headache.

Champ Bailey and Brian Dawkins don't buy into the hype that this week's game against the New England Patriots is any bigger than the 13 before it. Every game is big.
"It's the NFL," Bailey said. "You can say what you want — every week is a big test and the more you win, the bigger the test is. This is one of the better teams in this league. Every week is a big test."
As Bailey alluded, the Patriots are one of the top teams in the AFC this season, currently sitting atop the AFC East with a 10-3 record.
With the Broncos on a six-game win streak, the team knows that every game is important.
"As you get further where we are in December playing meaningful games, every game gets bigger and bigger," said Dawkins, who had limited participation in Thursday's practice. "If you can't get up for these games and if every game does not mean a little more, trying to push ourselves to get to somewhere we haven't been as an organization in a long time — you've got to get up for these games."
As the team continues toward its goal, Bailey said the group is only getting better.
"I don't think we've peaked yet," he said. "That's going to be the key. We've got to keep improving because the good teams that are in the playoffs play great this time of year. So if we stay focused on getting better every week, the sky's the limit."
Since Sports Authority Field at Mile High opened in 2001, the Broncos have won six of their eight games against the Patriots.
Bailey has been a part of five of those wins, and with only one loss, has the best winning percentage against New England (minimum five games) of any active player in the NFL.
But he knows the past doesn't necessarily dictate what's going to happen on Sunday.
"We play well against them, but things can change," Bailey said. "We're confident that we're going to play well. But (Tom Brady) is one of the best and you've got to give him his credit and the respect he deserves."
Still, Bailey did allow himself to think back on one of Denver's most memorable victories against New England, in a 2005 AFC Divisional Playoff game.
"Considering how much they'd won the previous years, they were pretty much unbeatable," he recalled.
In a Broncos win, Bailey recorded the longest non-scoring interception return and second-longest overall interception return in NFL postseason history with a 100-yard return late in the third quarter.
"Well, that play was one of the biggest plays around here," Bailey said. "It definitely, last time we were in the playoffs, last playoff win. Hopefully I can make more like that."
Bailey was tackled at the 1-yard line , and he joked that former teammate Nick Ferguson was to blame. The Broncos scored on the next play courtesy of a 1-yard run by Mike Anderson, and Denver went on to win 27-13.
"To get a play like that to change the game and to get a win against a team like that, it was a special moment," Bailey said.
Thursday morning, the team told Wesley Woodyard that he was selected as its Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award recipient for the second consecutive season.
The award recognizes a player for outstanding leadership both on the field and in the community.
Dawkins said he couldn't agree more with the selection.
"That speaks a whole bunch about a man's heart," he said. "Because he does not do it with a frown on his face — he wants to do it. He's always trying to get us to come out and attend his events as much as we can. It seems like it's always something that he has going on. So that means you have a young man who understands how much he's been blessed and he's trying to bless as many as he can with the overflow."
McCARTHY TO PRACTICE SQUAD
On Thursday, the Broncos added safety Kyle McCarthy to the practice squad.
The second-year safety played eight games as a rookie for Denver in 2010.
For the Broncos, three players were upgraded Thursday. After not practicing yesterday, Dawkins and Andre' Goodman were limited. Eddie Royal, who was limited Wednesday, practiced in full.
DID NOT PARTICIPATE: Safety David Bruton (Achilles).
LIMITED: Safety Brian Dawkins (neck), cornerback Andre' Goodman (concussion).
FULL: Fullback Spencer Larsen (hamstring), linebacker Von Miller (thumb) and wide receiver Eddie Royal (concussion).
For the Patriots:
DID NOT PARTICIPATE: Safety Patrick Chung (foot), offensive tackle Sebastian Vollmer (back/foot).
LIMITED: Cornerback Kyle Arrington (foot), quarterback Tom Brady (not injury related), wide receiver Deion Branch (groin), center Dan Connolly (groin), wide receiver Julian Edelman (back), linebacker Dane Fletcher (thumb), safety James Ihedigbo (shoulder), cornerback Devin McCourty (shoulder), wide receiver Matthew Slater (shoulder), linebacker Brandon Spikes (knee), running back Shane Vereen (hamstring), wide receiver Wes Welker (knee), center Ryan Wendell (calf), defensive lineman Vince Wilfork (not injury related), running back Danny Woodhead (abdomen).

Breakfast which is served in the morning is delicious. Food is always fresh, sometimes there's a lack of coffee due to limited capacity of a pan being in use. I recommend the hotel for romantic weekends.

Kings Pool
A Small Camp with Giant Inhabitants
Kings Pool Camp is located in the Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, a vast private concession in the northern part of Botswana, on the western boundary of Chobe National Park. The accommodation here is luxurious, the wildlife spectacular. Kings Pool Camp has nine well-appointed tents of canvas and thatch. Each has a large bedroom area, lounge and private plunge pool. The spacious en-suite bathrooms are tiled with double showers and hand-basins, as well as an outdoor shower for those who wish to shower close to nature. The lounge, dining room and pub areas are on expansive raised decks. There is also a communal pool and an open-air kgotla (meeting place) for dining under the stars. The Linyanti Wildlife Reserve has abundant wildlife in a wide variety of species, but is most noted for its very large elephant population which can reach enormous densities during the dry winter months. Other game is also abundant, such as impala, lechwe, kudu, zebra, giraffe, buffalo and bushbucks, and their predators: lions, leopards, cheetahs, wild dogs and spotted hyenas. Rarer species such as sable and roan antelope also emerge from the woodlands during the dry season. Apart from the simple appeal of watching the elephants at the water's edge from the luxury of the raised decks of Kings Pool Camp, spectacular wildlife viewing is available on day and night game drives and walks. Allowing for water levels, seasonal barge cruises along the Linyanti River are also on offer. The reed and papyrus swamps are ideal for numerous and diverse species of birds and are a magnet for game in the dry winter months. Kings Pool Camp is famed not just for the sights, but also the sounds of wildlife all around. For this reason the camp has two hides. One is located at the western end of the camp where one can spend one's entire siesta time watching game come down to drink. The other is an original underground hide, with the water at eye-level. Seeing massive elephant feet and trunks almost within touching distance while safely inside is an extraordinary experience.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - EA Sports will release NCAA Football 14 in July and the latest edition from its video game franchise features change influenced by a visit from West Virginia University football staff members last summer.
Director of Football Operations Alex Hammond and Coordinator of Recruiting Operations Ryan Dorchester were invited to Orlando last year to speak to the game's producers and designers about how to improve recruiting.
"It wasn't necessarily how you recruit a kid," Dorchester said in March. "That's hard. I don't know how you can really replicate that in a video game. A lot of it was saying, 'Here are some things that we feel aren't necessarily realistic in the video game and here's how those things happen in real life.' Understanding it can't exactly be simulated in a video game, we just wanted to give them an idea of what it was like on this side of the table."
The game's release date is July 9. EA Sports announced improvements to the game's Dynasty mode Tuesday and the Mountaineers' fingerprints are all over certain aspects.
Dorchester and Hammond stressed the value of managing the time and effort spent on a prospect and how teams need to allocate those resources to make sure they can address quality and quantity in recruiting. Producer Ben Haumiller said it led to an "overhaul" of the week-to-week recruiting function.
"We have now streamlined the recruiting experience so that your main function as the coach is to take a bulk of points each week and determine how you want to distribute them throughout the players you are targeting," he said. "After you've set the number of points you want to apply to a prospect you just manage their recruitment by adding or re-allocating points from week to week."
EA Sports was looking to modernize recruiting and make it more realistic. Hammond and Dorchester identified certain parts of the game that were not like what they encounter in their jobs. Haumiller and producer/designer Christian McLeod took those suggestions and applied them to different parts of recruiting in the game.
Haumiller said the additions complement what worked before, specifically scouting players and conducting visits on campus and at a prospect's home. Hammond and Dorchester convinced EA Sports to revisit the concept of on-campus visits.
"Previously there really wasn't much strategy as to when you scheduled a prospect to come on a visit," Haumiller said. "You did get a boost for bringing a prospect to a rivalry game, but you could bring in anyone you wanted for that game without worrying about how many players at a particular position were coming in that week."
Hammond and Dorchester explained that the game needed to allow for the difference between a "competitive" visit and a "complementary" visit. Both can affect recruiting and EA Sports was convinced to make the change.

Finn gets a forever home and his first Christmas
Michelle his new mom writes:
I don't think he ever received wrapped gifts before.
He didn't figure it out at the first opening, but by the second time around, he jumped right in.
He likes to cuddle with his toys and pulls them into one of the four beds he rotates sleeping on. (Much to Kirby's dismay.) Kirby always accommodates Finn on sleeping arrangements. We can really see the difference in his strength. Notice his new toy is snuggled right in with him on the bed.
Not much bunny-hopping anymore unless he sees dogs or horses on TV. He does steps like a champ now.

Research Policy Analysis and Coordination
Citizenship and nondiscrimination
The university Nondiscrimination and Affirmative Action Policy states that the university does not discriminate on the basis of citizenship. UC, therefore, generally does not accept public and private sponsors' restrictions of research based on citizenship.
In select cases, narrow exceptions to this policy may be made:
- Where there are compelling circumstances in support of legitimate public interests bearing on individual job requirements, e.g. for classified research. The chancellor may recommend such an exception to the president for his approval.
- Where the restriction to U.S. citizens is placed on fellowship support for graduate and undergraduate students (so-called training grants) because such fellowship restrictions from governmental sponsors are considered to be consistent with legitimate government interests in promoting the training of domestic students and because there is no specific policy precluding this practice.

Eliza's Story
"I didn't want to put my career on hold whilst raising a family, but the juggle just seemed too hard. Postgraduate study at the University of Newcastle gave me the flexibility to study when and where I could, without sacrificing my family or the financial freedom working full-time provides. I'm gaining knowledge, a new circle of like-minded friends and I feel I am being a good role model for my daughter. She's really proud of me."
