The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to Israel for AIM-9X Sidewinder missiles and associated equipment, parts, training and logistical support for an estimated cost of $544 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale on July 14, 2014.
The Government of Israel has requested a possible sale of up to 600 AIM-9X-2 Sidewinder Block II All-Up-Round Missiles, 50 CATM-9X-2 Captive Air Training Missiles, 4 Dummy Air Training Missiles, containers, missile support and test equipment, provisioning, spare and repair parts, personnel training and training equipment, publications and technical documentation, U.S. Government and contractor technical support services, and other related logistics and program support. The estimated cost is $544 million.
The United States is committed to the security of Israel, and it is vital to U.S. national interests to assist Israel in developing and maintaining a strong and ready self-defense capability. This proposed sale is consistent with those objectives and will enable the IDF to achieve those goals.
The Israeli Air Force is modernizing its fighter aircraft to better support its own air defense needs. The proposed sale of AIM-9X-2 missiles will improve the capability of the Israeli Air Force, enhance Israeli interoperability with the U.S., and help maintain regional peace and security. Israel will have no difficulty absorbing these missiles into its armed forces.
The proposed sale of these missiles will not alter the basic military balance in the region.
The principal contractor will be Raytheon Missile Systems Company in Tucson, Arizona. There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale.
Implementation of this proposed sale will require travel of U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Israel on a temporary basis for program technical support and management oversight.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.
This notice of a potential sale is required by law and does not mean the sale has been concluded.

The Fit Kitchen: Must-Have Appliances
Whether you're a mechanic assigned to fix a car, a plumber tasked with snaking a drain, or a contractor hired to build a new house, one thing is for certain: you'd never show up to start work without the right tools for the job.
The same rule applies when you're on a mission to build a strong, lean and healthy body. In this case, your workshop is the kitchen, not the gym. And best way to set yourself up for success is to use a set of tools—a.k.a, appliances—that make cutting fat and boosting flavor an all-but-effortless proposition.
To get you started, we've identified a core set of workhorse kitchen must-haves—appliances that can literally transform you from a drive-thru and delivery addict to a borderline home chef. Don't be surprised that after learning to use these tools (it won't take long) you may start to prefer your own culinary craftsmanship to greasy assembly line dining.

Somali official: AU troops killed 7 civilians
African Union troops mistakenly opened fire on a religious school while pursuing militants, killing five children and two adults, a Somali legislator said Thursday.
Associated Press
African Union troops mistakenly opened fire on a religious school while pursuing militants, killing five children and two adults, a Somali legislator said Thursday.
Dahir Amin Jesow, who visited the scene of the attack at Leggo village, said all five children were less than 10 years old.
Jesow said the attack in the village 75 miles (120 kilometers) west of the Somali capital, Mogadishu, took place around 3 a.m. Tuesday. Students of Islamic schools in Somalia often attend class in the early morning.
The AU soldiers were earlier attacked by militants, Jesow said.
The Somali government condemned the killings. "We have zero patience for the killing of innocent civilians," Abdikarim Hussein Guled, Somalia's interior minister said in a statement issued after a cabinet meeting.
"We demand a clarification from the AMISOM on that attack," he said.
The African Union Mission for Somalia, known as AMISOM, said it is investigating the incident.
"AMISOM is mindful of its responsibility to minimize civilian casualties during its operations and we have clear rules of engagement to that effect. We are therefore currently establishing the facts and the circumstances around this tragic incident so as to ascertain whether, and to what extent, these rules may have been breached," said Acting Force Commander Maj. General Salvatore Harushimana in a statement Wednesday evening
AU troops are in Somalia to bolster the country's weak government, which is facing an insurgency from al-Qaida-linked militants.

I love it! This is the best concealer I've ever tried. I have a lot of redness around my nose and cheeks and I can't hide it with a full cover or camouflage foundation because I have super oily skin and it melts off my face immediately. So I've tried so many things - different concealers, foundations and primers. This concealer is the only one which covers my redness and stay in place the whole day.
If you want to cover redness or other imperfections, try the camouflage cream palette concealers corrective shades from makeup forever as well. I always use a little bit of the green cream concealer and mix it with the full cover concealer between my fingers.
But keep in mind that this concealer is super heavy and thick. I would never use it to cover dark circles around my eyes.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Acne-prone, Fair-Medium, Warm Hair: Black, Relaxed, Medium Eyes: Black
I don't usually buy or use concealers (I try to limit my morning routine as I've been noticing it's getting ridiculously long...) but I decided to purchase one after noticing that my acne scars and blemishes are not getting covered enough by my regular foundation.
The SA matched me with #5 which is a fair-medium yellow based shade which suits my NC20 (or 'Buff' in Clinique Even Better, 53 in Bourjois Healthy Mix) skin well.
As others have mentioned, I did notice that it dried my blemishes out a little at the end of the day. However, it was fairly minimal and only apparent when I closely inspected my face.
Even though the concealer claims to be waterproof, I have not tried it while swimming yet so I can't attest to those claims. It does last in heat though, and I have not experienced any sliding off or fading during the day.
The application is easy enough (fingers work the best) and only a very small amount is required so the tube would last for a long time. I also wouldn't consider this to be full coverage but it is enough to cover my pigmented acne scars and other discolourations (The estee lauder maximum coverage foundation is more pigmented!).

I purchased this concealer quite a while ago and a little does go a long way. It is pricey but does a good job covering up blemishes and red spots; however, it is not so good as an under eye concealer. I've tried using it as an under eye concealer and it is just way too thick and dry. If you are looking to cover red spots and blemishes this is a good concealer.

Good coverage for acne scars/pigmentation but a bit hard to work with (like putty) and definitely dries skin out. After an hour or two on my skin, it starts to flake off and look chalky. I've tried #4 and #5 and the latter is a better match for me but still appears too yellowish in daylight. My never-ending search for the perfect concealer continues!

I don't know how to feel about this product. Everyone says it's full coverage but I don't see it being so. I have just pink post-acne pigmentation and it never covers them for me and looks bad in natural light. i have the lightest shade as well and I find it too peachy. for reference, i'm nw15/revlon ivory. I apply it with the beautyblender. For now I'm going to Urban decay concealer stick which I started liking after i got my beautyblender.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Oily, Fair-Medium Hair: Black Eyes: Brown
Coverage: really good for covering redness, but not so much for under eyes and pimples. Too drying for the under eye and emphasizes the acne too much. True to its name, is a full coverage concealer tho.
Price: slightly pricey but can use it for very VERY long. Using mine for a year and it hasn't even reached the 3/4 mark yet.
Packing: sanitary squeeze tube, easy to control how much to dispense. 5 stars for that.
Overall wouldn't repurchase as I would prefer a concealer that good for both redness and acne. Plus it takes a really really long time to finish a tube. So. Can't wait to finish my current tube so that I can finally try out other brands.

No doubt that this is a full coverage concealer..a cakey one that is. It conceals well but can't really be built up even with my fingers. I'm afraid to use this in the winter because I know it will emphasize flakiness. It is pricy however, I know this tube will last me forever.

Super expensive for a concealer at $30 something bucks!!! However, it's extremely pigmented and covers really well. A little goes a long way so I can honestly see this tube lasting me for a year or more even with daily use. It's waterproof, smudge-proof and doesn't budge. Dries quickly but still creamy enough to work with. Also, great color selection! I'm a fan of MAC's concealers (specifically the select cover-up which also comes in a squeeze tube and the pro longwear concealer) but find that the MUFE matches my skin tone better, blends in seamlessly and doesn't oxidize. Considering it will last me so long and offers such great coverage, I would repurchase if I ran out. I use this to cover old acne scars and blemishes. My skin is combination for reference.

Hello everyone.
As everyone is probably aware, the state of raiding on Norgannon has decreased both in quality and quantity over the past few years. In particular the last tier of raiding was difficult for many guilds, and two of the top 6 guilds on the server ended up server transferring because they were unable to fill their raid spots and keep solid recruits. Losing guilds to server transfers has been an ongoing issue on Norgannon for several years, but the loss of two more guilds during the same week was a serious blow to our server. To put a number to this phenomenon- less than 10 alliance guilds fully cleared last tier on normal before the nerf/next patch and two of those guilds left- that's a significant number of our capable raiders. In addition, several other top 20 guilds have either disbanded or stopped raiding. There are now fewer guilds clearing content on normal mode and more guilds that are having trouble filling raid spots.
As a result of this, I called together a meeting of GMs/officers of all of the alliance guilds who finished in the top 20 last tier. There were representatives from almost all the alliance guilds at this meeting. Only a couple chose not to attend. During this meeting, we discussed the ongoing issues on the server and how we can help improve server quality. We all exchanged our realids/battletags and formed a GM/officer chat channel to help the communication between guilds and also began to loan reserve raiders to each other to help fill raid spots. We decided, as a community, that not only were there not enough raiders (and the good raiders were spread between too many guilds), but that we all had to do something to hopefully stem the tide and the outflow of good players from Norgannon.
In our most recent meeting we decided that there are a few things that we can do as a group to help improve Norgannon. The first thing we are doing is creating a guild/recruitment directory and list on these forums. I have created a separate thread for people to post their guild and recruitment info. I plan on keeping this updated (similar to what Aultcare from Lacrimosa did in Cata) so that both guilds and raiders have an easy place to go to see who is recruiting.
We also decided that we needed to have a more hands-on approach with compelling new people to start raiding or getting old raiders back into the mix. A few days ago a few of us had a very productive late-night chat in Trade chat. I discussed with Proto/Retrabution (of Echelon/Reinstated) and Comet (of Megalomaniac) some of the things that I believed had made raiding on our server worse. During this chat, several people on the server chimed in that they either wanted to start raiding and had no way to do so (ie, they were just starting out and had no one to bring them into raids) or that they were formerly in a raiding guild that had fallen apart and they didn't have a raid group. We discussed this at the most recent meeting and decided to fix this problem more directly.
Essentially what we have decided to do is to start server pugs of prior-tier content and use it as a place to recruit and train new players. GMs, officers, and even some core raiders of various alliance raiding guilds will be hosting 25 man raids (and some 10 man raids), mostly on weekends, with the raid spots being open to anybody on the server that wants to raid and is willing to put in some effort. I hope that these raids will accomplish a few things
1- They will be a great place for someone who is looking for a raid team/guild to be able to play directly with GMs and officers that are recruiting. Hopefully this will result in people being matched with a guild that fits their needs and vice versa
2- They will be a good learning experience for those who have never raided normal modes before. We are looking at this as also a place to train people and give them tips to help improve their skills. Those who have never raided before but are willing to put in the time and effort to learn how to raid (and have a good attitude) are welcome and encouraged to join in these raids.
3- It will help foster a greater sense of community among the various guilds on the server.
In a separate thread I will be posting the details of these runs, along with how to sign up for them. I hope to get them up and going within a week or two at the most.
As a side note, we increased the number of guilds involved in the most recent GM meeting. If there are representatives (meaning officers or GMs) of any current raiding guilds that are currently not involved in the GM chat channel/meetings and you would like to be involved, please see myself or any of the people listed below for more information.
I also have a few other ideas in the works with regards to how to improve Norgannon, but I will be posting about those at a later date. For now, please see my two threads- one with the guild directory/listings and thread for information/sign up for the server pugs.
If anyone has any feedback or questions about these ideas feel free to post them here or see me in-game.
List of GMs/officers/representatives involved in this effort: myself (Goonies), Comet (Megalomaniac), Cerena (APATHY), Retrabution/Protoformx (Reinstated/Echelon), EI (Echelon), Kx (The Heroic), Silac (Elementally Challenged), Babatoongie (Death Star Orphans), Soria (The Heroic), Astue (Igni Ferroque), Chaospaladin (Reinstated), Xiae (The Clique), Hadorya (The Clique), Calib (Ominous Latin Phrase) Zeronemo (Far Riders), Xaine (The Clique). If I forgot anybody please let me know, the list has gotten quite big! :)
Thank you to all and happy raiding!

you're so smart, are you still running around Norgannon naked?
90 Pandaren Shaman
Of course we are, this is Norgannon after all, we have to get our kicks somewhere.
And on a more relevant topic, I wholeheartedly support Cass. The server networking thing really helped our guild through a tough spot when we might have been one of those guilds that stopped raiding due to not having enough people. I'm eager to see how the 25's work out!
90 Human Priest
I also support this idea, and would be willing to help out with this and with any other questions people may have, whether it's how to play their class(I know how to play Shadow, Frost DK, and Resto Druid(sort of, I can get by <.<), but can help with other classes; how to do encounters, etc.
I really want Norg to be brimming with activity again; even though I've only been around since 4.2, even I've noticed the huge drop in population and raiders. I feel this is a great first step towards it, and am happy to see all the Gms working together to make it happen. Hopefully the 25 man format can also help with that.
90 Draenei Priest
I support Cass as well. I am always willing to help out how ever I can. Just let me know.
This is a great idea, but we shall see how it turns out. Like Dylan I'll help out people in any way they need with regards to mechanics, playing their class, things of that nature. I consider myself knowledgeable in DK tanking, Prot Paladin, Mages (mostly fire/frost, I don't dable in arcane), I know the Hunter class quite well as well.
90 Draenei Hunter
Hello All,
Thanks Cassandrae and all those who are spearheading this endeavor. I am the GM of Legendary Guardians and I heard of this through Astue of Igni Ferroque and a couple others. My guild is still new (level 7), however the people in it have raid experience from vanilla day.
I am willing to help out in what way that I can to see Norgannon prosper.
I used to run with Cassandrae last expansion and I tell you what, she is definitely a smart cookie and one of the best and most knowledgeable raiders I have ran with. I support her 100% and I think we need to take up the issue over here on Horde. There are only 3 raiding guilds that have pushed the content last patch and this patch. Disputed, KMS and Myrmidons.
90 Night Elf Warrior
been around since the end of bc. back then norg was a much more active server and i would love to help other guilds and the server as a whole get back to glory days
90 Blood Elf Paladin
I want to offer some helpful feedback but I don't believe anything I say will help this server, it's in the worst state I have ever seen it.
Good luck Norgannon.
100 Human Mage
You say top 20 guilds, but do we even have that many actively doing progression? We just started raiding the newer content on a whim in that last month or so and are already 19th according to wow-heroes.
I think another thing to look at, and from what i've seen is that we do have alot of capable raiders yet, but they aren't raiding. I wonder if maybe we could appeal more to that pool of players as well?
When I started becoming interested my biggest issue was that the majority of the guilds have similiar raiding times. - something else that could be helping our downfall. Majority is key word.
Edit: for my horrible spelling abilities that some of you whom have encountered me are well aware i have.

I wholeheartedly support any effort to improve the raiding scene here on Norg. However, I must say that every time I'm trying to make an alt-run during prime time of an off-night, I'm usually met with only disappointment. I dispatch Ei, the Norgannon Whisperer, to look for a dps or two in all of the secret channels of communication and his cries are met with nothing but *crickets*. Makes me think that all of these sentiments are somewhat insincere.
Regardless, you can count me in for your list and w/e else you guys are cooking up. Now that 5.3 is here, it isn't very difficult to bring a char to 500 ilvl alone, which is certainly enough for normal mode raiding. If there is genuine interest out there, then -- with some effort and a little guidance -- some of these coals could be turned into diamonds. I'm always open to anyone seeking advice on any aspect of raiding.

We are trying to appeal to the group of raiders who either 1- are in a raiding guild that is now defunct or 2- have never raided before but really, really want to try.
As for raiding rankings, wowprogress.com is really the website you want to look at for rankings. We had a few more guilds last tier and I took all the alliance guilds from the top 20, but we are down to roughly 25-28 I believe raiding this tier between alliance and horde.

Zed, I assure you that these sentiments are not insincere. I personally have lent out quite a few of my raiders' alts and/or my reserves for other guilds runs. Ask The Clique or APATHY, who seem to have benefitted the most from the GM chat channel and getting subs. That being said, TBH, the amount of people on the server who are on your level in terms of doing hardmodes are slim and thus your guild may benefit a tad less from this than others. That being said, for alt runs we should have a few people able and willing to go. I'm hoping that this will, over time, be a useful resource for all.
90 Human Paladin
Yeah, I kind of fall into the group of people who really want to raid, and have alot of (raid ready toons), But just dont have a solid home yet. Like right now, im hoping to find a good raiding guild or guilds to plant my toons in and hopefully get some serious raiding and content done. Because I have been on norgannon for a while now and things have deteriorated badly i was thinking about server transferring but i don't have the money and Frankly i would rather just stay here and try to find a good raiding home. So hopefully this little raid get together (which i signed up for) Turns out well and i get somewhere awesome and so do tons of others because i would really like to enjoy raiding once again.
Kinda sad to hear about how my old server is doing, been over a year since I left, I see a name or two I recognize here, I don't know how you guys manage to put up with everything that goes on in that server, maybe one day I'll make a toon and pop in see if I cant find an old friend or two

Living with the Ex
If you read my blog you found out that Seven recently ended our relationship because Lamian pulled a veto after over a year. You also know that I'm in the process of looking for somewhere else to live because I can't be in the house any longer than I need to.
But at the moment I am having to share a living space not only with someone I'm still completely in love with but the woman who has never thought of anyone but herself and damn anyone who gets in her way of what she wants.
How do you do that? How do you stay civil towards a person you have nothing but disgust for? And how do you turn off caring/loving someone so you can be in a house with them and not break down when they aren't there anymore?

... itinerary as I may have to make a choice. Both of these arts are well known in Bali, so it will be nice to bring home a genuine part of who they are. I don't usually plan so much when I travel, but I think it's necessary for this trip. It's not that long of a trip for a place with so much to see and experience and it MAY be the only time I go to Bali. It's going to be a long summer... ...

But alas, the time had arrived to move on. Washington DC was calling and it is pretty attuned to my touristy needs. After stopping off briefly in Baltimore and getting my fix of seeing where the Wire was set, the coach pulled into a grey ...
Saturday - Washington DC
... get changed into anything fabulous - just changed my socks. Had $4 wine and a $6 "snack" which was dinner. So tomorrow we drive to New York. So tomorrow the New York Marathon is on. I did not think that through. The bridge we need to cross to get from Staten Island to JFK Airport is closed due to a whole lot of fit running people. (I wonder if they'll get Tiffany pendants just for finishing). The bridge will open at 3 so there is no point leaving here ...

We met with Tanya's camp friends at Busboys and Poets near Chinatown tonight. It was so much fun catching up with them and eating delicious chocolate cake!! Tomorrow is another busy day with lots we want to squeeze in so we are off to bed ...

... we're on Rt 50 in Annapolis, heading over the Severn River Bridge! We're all very excited to get home, but not so excited to unload and unpack. Thanks to Grandma, Grandpa, Nana and Max for watching our kitties, house and pool while we were gone. (And thanks in advance for helping us unpack!) It was an awesome trip, but it's good to be Home Sweet ...

Book Review: 'Star Wars: Crucible'
Title: Star Wars: Crucible
Author: Troy Denning
Release Date: July 9th, 2013
Warning: This review may contain minor spoilers.
Where to even begin? I blame myself for how I feel about this book. I was so excited for it.
Too excited.
Han, Luke, and Leia together again on an adventure? This was going to be like old times. But it wasn't. It was more of what we have gotten recently from the trio's ongoing story.
Let's look at the official synopsis before we get too deep.
Han Solo, Leia Organa Solo, and Luke Skywalker return in an all-new Star Wars adventure, which will challenge them in ways they never expected—and forever alter their understanding of life and the Force.
Princess Leia Organa and the Courage and Wisdom Found in Youth
I imagine Princess Leia got up early every morning.
As I watch A New Hope, I really can't help but wonder how Princess Leia got where she was, especially once you get to the scene where she is confronting Darth Vader on the Tantive IV. Basically she is standing there telling the evil dark lord, Darth Vader, "…only you could be so bold." with that trademark, snippy sarcasm. Princess Leia is laying it down, laying down the smack.
Why Star Wars Still Matters: Reason #2

Reason #2: Inspiration and Hope
Should Star Wars Mirror the Marvel Multiverse? I Say No
* The opinions in this article are my own and may not reflect the opinions of others at The Star Wars Report… especially Mark's
If you haven't read Brian's great article about the potential of a Star Wars multiverse you should go check it out at Tosche Station. My post here is actually a response to his post in a way. My post isn't meant to be an attack on his (we are friends) merely a look at things from a different perspective. I don't hate what he lays out as a plan for the future of the Star Wars Expanded Universe, and if that is the way things went I could accept it, but it's not what I hope to see. Continue reading

Bar Refaeli, Leonardo DiCaprio Deny Pregnancy Rumorsby Free Britney at . Comments
A representative for Leonardo DiCaprio is denying reports that the handsome actor has impregnated his hot, exotic girlfriend - Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Bar Refaeli.
A British tabloid newspaper, The Mirror, reported on Thursday that the couple, having been together for over 15 months now, will be officially expecting their first child in the fall.
However, a representative for Leonardo DiCaprio insists that the story is "totally b.s." and "100 percent made up bollocks."
That means it's got about as much weight behind it as Nicole Richie puts on the scale in the morning.
Wow, that was the worst joke of the day by far.
The newspaper quotes friends of Bar Refaeli saying that the Israeli model and 32-year-old Blood Diamond actor, who has also been romantically linked to Sienna Miller in recent weeks, are "delighted" by the news.
According to the Mirror, pregnancy speculation began back in March when Rafaeli, 21, wore a loose-fitting top to a bash at Jet Nightclub at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, where she drank mineral water all night.
Ooh. She wasn't fall-down drunk, and therefore she must be knocked up, right? They said the same thing a few months back about Britney Spears. Though at the time, her not drinking really was an event.
In any case, while Bar may not be carrying a child, there's little doubt why Leo might want to put a bun in that oven one day. Check out this Bar Refaeli photo...
Oh yeah. That was a good pic. Interestingly, DiCaprio's ex, Gisele Bundchen, is also a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model who recently denied tabloid reports that she is pregnant!
Tom Brady did not do the honors in that case.
In other recurring news about stuff that isn't true, Ryan Seacrest wants everyone to know that he's not gay. Not that there's anything wrong with it...
sonunda ayrildilar
for your kind information she is neither exotic nor pretty. she is far less than the average models and you know what is exotic? aishwarya rai. go bar, check out her photos and show them to leonardo. he'll surely give you a break and why aishwarya. even bobby darling is enough.
i am glad she isnt pregnant because she wouldnt be good mother.she is to wrapped up in looks and modeling career.she would set a bad example for her kids.
i just like to say good look if they have a child but is she pregnant
so what if she pregnant?? go LEO ! hehehe..spread your sperm everywhere!! hahaha!
what? have she no shame? im with dat guy!! ... or gal...
Yeah! Why? Bar isn't pregnant.
no shes not shes israeli n she has respect for her country would u please leave her and leonardo alone ????????????????!

Herzog & de Meuron Celebrates Opening of Pérez Art Museum Miami
Herzog & de Meuron just celebrated the grand opening of the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), alongside the commence of the Art Basel in Miami Beach. Located on a waterfront site overlooking the Biscayne Bay, near the MacArthur Causeway, the three-story museum's low-profile seems to almost disappear into its surroundings – a pleasant contrast to the ornate and often form-based architecture that is typically found throughout the city. This lack of form, as Jacques Herzog described, is all about "permeability."
"Miami is known for its iconic art deco district – in fact art deco was about decorated boxes with no great relationship and exchange between inside and outside," Herzog continued. "The greatest thing, however, that makes Miami so extraordinary is its amazing climate, lush vegetation and cultural diversity. How can these assets be fully exploited and translated into architecture? That's the way we tried to go with our design for the new art museum in Miami."

Sou Fujimoto Designs "Structural Waterfall" for Miami
The Miami Design District, an 18 square-block neighborhood between Miami's downtown and South Beach, has announced that the facade of its new mixed-use retail building will be designed by Sou Fujimoto. The two-floor, 17,000 square foot structure, which will feature "an elongated series of glass fins extending from the rooftop down to the open courtyard," will create unique pedestrian arcades covered by a "structural waterfall."
The Miami Design District, owned by Miami Design District Associates, aims to combine commerce with high-quality design, fashion, art and architecture, and has chosen Fujimoto on the merit of his past award-winning works, from House N in Tokyo, to the Musashino Art University & Library, to – most recently – his design of the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion in London.
Zaha Hadid's One Thousand Museum Tower for Miami Revealed
New renderings of Zaha Hadid Architect's 215 meter-high One Thousand Museum Tower in downtown Miami have been released. As the first Zaha Hadid-designed skyscraper to grace the skyline of the Western Hemisphere, the 60-story luxury condominium will mask its program with a prominent concrete exoskeleton. As Hadid described to the Wall Street Journal, the tower is designed with an interest in "how the structure is manifested" so that it may avoid the "generic modernist typology" that is commonly found in Miami.
One Thousand Museum Tower is one of several by high-profile architects that are beginning to take root in Miami, changing the tide of investment from real estate that is solely driven by waterfront locations to architecture that is high-end and luxurious.

Foster + Partners Release Images of Luxury Condo in Miami
Foster + Partners have released new images of the luxurious, 18-story Faena House currently being constructed in Miami. Argentinean developer Alan Faena, who is best known for transforming Buenos Aires' abandoned Puerto Madero neighborhood into the city's most vital culture center, commissioned the project, which will mark the first phase of the anticipated Faena District in Miami Beach.

Who Should Win the OMA vs. BIG Miami Showdown?
The Miami Beach Convention Center, a giant box of a building constructed in 1957, is in desperate need of a makeover and two design teams have bravely accepted the challenge. Team 1 is dubbed South Beach ACE (Arts, Culture, Entertainment District) and is a collaboration between Rem Koolhaas's OMA firm, Tishman, UIA, MVVA, Raymond Jungles and TVS. Team 2 goes by the name of Miami Beach Square and includes BIG, West 8, Fentress, JPA and Portman CMC. Both proposals completely re-imagine 52 acres of prime beach real estate and cost over a billion dollars in public and private funds. So, who does it better?

OMA Proposes Radical Redevelopment Plan for the Miami Beach Convention Center
South Beach ACE just unveiled their master plan for the redevelopment of the Miami Beach Convention Center site. Currently in a battle with BIG and Portman CMC for the right to overhaul the 52-acre site, national developer Tishman, international architecture firm OMA, international firm TVS, and Miami Beach developer UIA Management comprise the South Beach ACE team. The vision involves bringing to life one of Miami Beach's most underutilized public sites with a fully-revamped convention center capable of luring major events from around the world, an iconic hotel, inviting green spaces, low-density retail uses, and cultural venues.

BIG Unveils Design for Miami Beach Convention Center
BIG has collaborated with West 8, Fentress, JPA and developers Portman CMC to challenge an OMA- and South Beach ACE-lead team in the 52-acre Miami Beach Convention Center overhaul. With a mission to "bring Miami Beach back to the Convention Center," BIG's newly unveiled proposal aims to transform the "dead black hole of asphalt in the heart of one of the most beautiful and lively cities in America" into an archipelago of urban oases made up of paths, plazas, parks and gardens, which will all lead to the heart of the plan: the Miami Beach Square. This tropical centerpiece will become the front door to the convention center and the convention hotel, as well as the front lawn to a revitalized Jackie Gleason Theatre, a town square for the city hall, an outdoor arena for the Latin American Cultural Museum, and the red carpet for the big botanical ball room.
"We have devised a strategy that combines urban planning and landscape design to create a neighborhood characterized by human scale, pedestrian connections, shaded spaces with public oriented programs lining the streets and squares. A neighborhood that, depending on the season, the weekday, or even the time of day can be perceived as a lively downtown neighborhood or an inviting public park." Bjarke Ingels, Creative Director BIG

DawnTown 2013: Landmark Miami Design Competition Winners Announced

Parking Is Hell (But Designers Can Help)
Most parking is free – but that doesn't mean it doesn't have a high cost. A recent podcast from Freakonomics Radio (which you can listen to at the end of this article) examined parking in US cities, investigating the "cost of parking not paid for by drivers" – a cost paid not just by the government, but by the environment – due to congestion and pollution caused by people searching for kerbside parking. For example, in a 15 block area of Los Angeles the distance traveled by drivers looking for parking is equivalent to one trip across the USA per day.
One potential solution which they discuss is a San Francisco project called SF Park, which makes use of sensor technology to measure the demand for parking in certain areas of the city and adjust price according to demand. In theory, this would create a small number of empty spaces on each block and dramatically reduce the time that many drivers spend cruising for parking spaces.
Though the idea is certainly an intelligent approach to the problem of kerbside parking, unsurprisingly all this talk of supply, demand and pricing sounds very much like an economist's answer to a problem. But what can designers do to help the situation?
Perhaps, from the designer's point of view, the real problem with kerbside parking and surface lots is that they are always seen as a provision "coupled with" a building or area of the city. There have been a number of attempts by architects – some successful and some tragically flawed – to make parking spaces less of a rupture in a city's fabric and more of a destination in themselves. Could these point to another way?
Read about 3 examples of parking's past, and one of its potential future, after the break…
'Up-Downtown' DawnTown's 2012 Competition Winning Installation
Up-Downtown, the prize-winning installation in DawnTown's competition for the creation of a temporary installation on the theme of the "Evolution of Miami", is taken literally to present an interactive story of Miami's rise. "A city is a complex machine, where everything is interconnected and any movement affects the other," said Manuel Clavel-Rojo, co-creator of the Up-Downtown team. The installation, exhibited at HistoryMiami, features a 10' x 10' x 10' box structure using steel for supports. A mirror sits at its base, with blue and pink neon lights representing the water's edge and roadways, creating a perimeter of the downtown area. More images and information after the break.
Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science / Grimshaw Architects
Slated to open in 2015, the Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science is on its way to become the world's most innovative and sustainable science museum with the structural foundation now complete and the vertical construction currently in progress. Designed by Grimshaw Architects, the 250,000 square-foot complex will harness energy from water, sun, wind and even museum visitors to power exhibits and conserve resources. More images and architects' description after the break.
Port-Side Miami / PlusUrbia Design
PlusUrbia , an architectural and urban design firm, led the design of the new trade/commercial district in the Port of Miami in collaboration with GSHstudio, OskiStudio and studioLFA. The team developed a concept coined "Port-Side Miami" to become the city's new commercial district on the west end of the Port's Dodge Island, which was designated by the "PortMiami 2035 master plan" to be developed into office space, retail, restaurants and a number of high-end hotels.
