Avoid Costly Design Mistakes
Common errors keep plants from getting the most reliable and suitable vessels
and 60° configurations but mechanical
cleaning may be harder.
Click on illustration for a larger image.
The 45° or 90° pattern is selected if shell-side mechanical cleaning is required. Such a pattern also requires a removable bundle. The 45° is more common than the 90° because it provides more shell-side flow disturbance, which improves heat transfer. A 90° pattern is used to reduce pressure drop at the expense of duty and often is employed in boiling service to enable better vapor disengagement.
Make the right choices
In today's chemical industry, too many engineers given the task of specifying welded equipment such as vessels, heat exchangers and tanks aren't well versed in what's necessary to develop an economic design that provides suitable safety and performance. Myriad choices must be made — and each will incrementally add to the final cost and schedule. When looking for savings, cutting the wrong corners may turn out to be very costly over the equipment's service life.

PCI Announces 2013 Trends and Predictions
Highlights developments in generic drugs, impact of VC money, recruiting and outsourcing for pharma and biotech
PCI Synthesis, Inc. (www.pcisynthesis.com), a 12-year-old pharmaceutical manufacturer of new chemical entities (NCEs), generic active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), and other specialty chemical products, today announced a list of trends it thinks will impact the emerging biotech and generic drug industries in both Massachusetts and the U.S.
• Producing generic drugs will become more expensive in 2013. The Generic Drug User Fee Amendments of 2012 (GDUFA), passed by Congress in July, has a worthwhile goal: "to ensure Americans have timely access to safe, high-quality, and effective generic drugs." But the fees – estimated by the FDA "to cost the generic drug industry less than ten cents for the average generic prescription," squeezes a lot of the smaller companies. Companies will now have to pay for applications and Drug Master Files (DMFs) -- as much as $20,000 to $30,000 per DMF, which could have an adverse effect on the generic drug industry. GDUFA changes the risk profile for small companies applying for DMFs; companies need to be sure they can generate a better return to compensate that risk. In the long run, generics will become more expensive. The increased fees equate more inspections of foreign manufacturing and it remains to be seen if these efforts will truly shorten the FDA approval process.
• Foreign drug companies need to be held to consistent, high standards of the FDA. As prices for U.S.-produced generics increase, we can expect to see an increase in sales of foreign-made generics. The FDA needs to step up inspections of foreign plants in countries such as India or China to ensure their quality control meets U.S. standards.
• More VC money will be available in 2013 to fund new companies and research. The level of VC funding rebounded in 2011 (up from 2009 and 2010), and held steady in 2012. We expect that to continue in 2013. The structure of the investments has changed but money is still available. We continue to expect long-term trends to continue, for example: more virtual pharma companies that will outsource most of their work. This is good news for the Massachusetts CRO/CMO community.
• Recruiting will be a big issue. One of the biggest risks that everyone has is the lack of qualified people. Unemployment is still an issue in general in Massachusetts and the U.S., but finding qualified people for the pharma industry is a challenge. Expect to see more remote hires as talented people use technology to telecommute rather than relocate. Some in the industry have seen the rise of "supertemps," talented employees who move frequently from one company to the next, but this is a short-term solution that does not help companies or the industry.
• For its biotech hub to remain competitive, Massachusetts needs to do more to bring more pharmaceutical business to the state. Massachusetts has done a good job supporting its universities, and its R&D cluster is growing, but we're seeing an increase of companies from outside the state trying to lure business away from here. The state should focus not only on research jobs, but also how to better promote manufacturing which could be an impetus for even more jobs for the state. Too often great research and development is done locally then moves elsewhere for manufacturing upon commercialization. From a historical perspective this is counter to the other leading industries that were previously developed in Massachusetts such as semi-conductors, computers, textiles, etc.
• Outsourcing research and development to other countries will make less sense in 2013. The cost differential between U.S. R&D and foreign R&D is narrowing all the time. Labor costs in India and China continue to grow. Pretty soon the salary of a chemist in India and the U.S. will be more in line. Increased regulation may make it harder to bring new drugs into the country.
"This is a dynamic time for the industry – an increase in VC funding over a couple of years ago, which may spur additional development; new regulations and fees that make business more expensive. Over the past 12 years, we've provided our clients with insights into new trends to help them prepare and manage for the future. The biggest issue for the industry is the direction the FDA is going to take, and the continuing wage inflation affecting the Indian and Chinese economies," said Ed Price, President of PCI.

Pink Birdy Party by Alannah Rose
I had to share this amazing bird-themed birthday party by Suzi of Alannah Rose Stationery Boutique from Melbourne, Australia. This adorable birthday party was for her daughter's 5th birthday and no detail was left undone for her special day. The dessert table food had a theme of red, pink, chocolate, birds and hearts. Food included, cupcakes, gingerbread birds, sweets, candy kebabs, chocolate crackles, and heart shaped fairy bread. Yummy! I really loved the pale pink and cherry red color palette. As Suzi puts it "you can never grow tired of red and pink together it's such an unexpected but pretty combination".
Suzi used tissue pom poms for a vertical element. Easy to follow instructions for the tissue paper pom poms can be found here.
Aren't the cupcakes beautiful! I love the paper wrappers and the hats were homemade by Suzi herself!
The "Thirsty Bird" bottles are the cutest! Love this idea!
Great work Suzi! And make sure you stop by Suzi's shop. More amazingly beautiful stuff! Here is one of my favorites.

Breakfast Topic: Were you impressed with the Mists of Pandaria press event? {WoW}
Mar 23rd 2012 9:08AM I haven't seen anyone say this, but I'm quite disappointed by the announcement that Garrosh would be the ultimate baddie in the expansion. I'm excited by the development, but I think it would have played better if we were surprised when we found out. It would have been fun to play and, as each patch releases, watch him slowly go insane until the final patch and "Whoa! We're going to have a coup???!" Now, we already know what's going to develop and I think that's potentially going to take some of the fun out of it for me.
Breakfast Topic: What's your WoW grudge? {WoW}
Mar 15th 2012 9:16AM Murlocs are one of the most regular memories of the murderers I met early in my WoW life. Particularly the ones in Elwynn forest around Crystal Lake.
That said, I have a more specific grudge. I was around level 19 and working my way to Menethil Harbor. I was staying carefully on the road, as one of the tips on the loading screen implied I'd be safe if I did that. I was just about to cross that last bridge into Menethil when a crocolisk attacked me EVEN THOUGH I WAS ON THE ROAD! I fought valiantly, but, alas I perished. I was pissed, so I let him kill me three more times hoping I'd have a chance *this* time. No joy.
For months after that I killed that sucker whenever I was there. If he wasn't by the bridge I'd head off into the swampy fields and find him. I rarely have reason to be walking into Menethil these days, but if I were to do so, I promise, there'd be crocolisk stew for dinner.
Breakfast Topic: Where's the best music in WoW? {WoW}
Mar 4th 2012 10:24AM I really love the music and ambiance on the Isle of Qual Danis. I suspect it's probably the same music as Blood Elves get, but I generally play Alliance, so I don't know. I find that music to be eerie and reminiscent of the Wizard of Oz.
Drama Mamas: The case of the mass guild eviction {WoW}

Breakfast Topic: Are players becoming too entitled? {WoW}
Nov 17th 2011 1:57PM "trash"? You're one of the people ruining the game, IMO.
Breakfast Topic: Are players becoming too entitled? {WoW}
Nov 17th 2011 11:37AM Fact: Blizzard is a for profit company. It's the 10.3 million people currently playing that define the experience. If WoW has been "dumbed down" since vanilla, as is clearly the case, yet retained its user base (mostly) it's because that's what the majority wanted to happen. If the fact that Cataclysm was notably more difficult than Wrath had anything to do with the loss of nearly 2 million players, Blizzard will, and should, take note. (I don't think that's the reason, but it's pretty difficult to fix "burnout").
It appears Pandara will cater more to the masses and give players many, many more options in end-game than they have today. Blizzard is betting that's what the majority of players want, and expects to see subscriptions rise once again as a result. If they do increase, then the hubbub will come from the ever-screaming vocal minority.
Are people getting "lazy"? I don't know. But games are for fun, not work. If it feels like work, it's not fun. Blizzard knows that also. I, personally, think that end-game in Cataclysm is far, far inferior to what it was in Wrath. I'm in the majority there. It's just that most of us don't post to forums and comment boards.
The Queue: Image is relevant {WoW}
Nov 15th 2011 12:12PM It happened *last* Tuesday, at least on US realms. But it's definitely much rarer.
The Queue: Image is relevant {WoW}
Nov 15th 2011 12:08PM @Mir - me too! And whenever I'm leveling a toon on an alternate server I feel sort of guilty that I'm earning experience that my guild isn't benefiting from. I also wish there was another profession or two so that I had a few less toons maxed out at the same prof.

My ggmother was Amelia Dorschel, b. ca. 1846, married Heinrich "Henry" Weinrich, lived in Newark, NJ, from early 1860s until sometime after her husband died in early 1880s. The 1880 census said she was 33 years old and was born in Hessen (as was her husband). Henry and Amelia were in NJ when their eldest child, Minnie, was born in Oct 1864. I seek more info on Amelia's ancestors, such as names and origins of her parents and siblings, etc. I have not found info on Amelia's life after her husband died, date of death, etc. Amelia and Henry had 6 children.

Wal-Mart stores in many parts of the country are famous for letting motor-home travelers park overnight in their lots for free. One wonders whether that policy will last: a Florida couple is now suing the retailer over an incident in the parking lot of its Cedar City, Utah store, in which the family shot and killed a man who intruded in their parked home. They say they have suffered emotional distress and medical problems and that "store officials knew the man was loitering in the lot" but failed to act. [Salt Lake Tribune via Consumerist, where commenters haven't been conspicuously sympathetic to the plaintiffs]
Family overnights RV in Wal-Mart lot, sues over intruder
{ 5 comments }
- 1 08.03.10 at 9:17 am
Scum like that are also likely to get firearms banned fro store parking lots. They should pay Wally World's legal fess.
- 2 08.03.10 at 9:20 am
Maybe I need to read the story closer, but wasn't everyone involved loitering? How was the store supposed to identify the intent between the two different groups?
- 3 08.03.10 at 1:11 pm
I travel solo in a small motorhome and worry that those of us who rely on occasional overnight stays at WalMart will lose this valuable privilege because of people who would do something as stupid as open their door to a stranger. The responsibility for prudence and common sense belongs to the RVer. And a shotgun? Equally stupid. I came to check it out on Snopes because it sounded so far-fetched. Guess not.
- 4 08.03.10 at 2:29 pm
I would say that the man who was killed also suffered emotional distress and medical problems. His next of kin should sue Walmart, too.
- 5 08.04.10 at 9:33 am
All jokes aside, this is an abominable form of liability. It may only be trailed by liability for injuries caused to criminals in the course of their crimes. It fits nowhere into the long-standing tort scheme of "duty, breach, causation, damages." The lawyers filing these suits should be ashamed of themselves.
It's also another "sued if you do, sued if you don't" scenario: suppose Wal-Mart takes the plaintiff's lawyer seriously when he intones in closing argument that Wal-Mart should have done something. Such as what? Put up an electrified fence? Lawsuit. Patrol the lot? Heavy cost, and inevitable accusations of racism. Prowler and security guard get into scuffle? Lawsuit. ACLU steps in. Class action.
And on it goes.

The picture above is taken in Marriuci Arena in Minneapolis, home of the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers hockey team. Between the amazing crowds, live band and great teams they consistently ice it's damn near my favourite arena on earth. The only real downfall is that the ice sheet itself was roughed in to be just smaller than the actual state of Minnesota, which encompasses over 10,000 lakes, as you may have heard.
That makes for a unique brand of hockey, as we've seen from past Olympic hockey tournaments.
My college hockey was played in the WCHA, a division packed with Olympic-sized sheets like Marriuci. Of the 10 teams in that conference at the time, our home rink (Sullivan Arena) was Olympic, as was Wisconsin's (Kohl Center), St. Cloud's (National Hockey Center), Colorado College's (World Arena), and Minnesota State @ Mankato's (Verizon Wireless Center). That left North Dakota (Ralph Engelstad Arena), Denver (Magness Arena), Michigan Tech (MacInnes Student Arena) and Minnesota-Duluth (The DECC) as the only NHL-sized rinks.
A few of those Olympic sheets managed to combine the massive ice with square-ish corners, so again: it felt like you were chasing the puck around an entire state. And when the ice wasn't hard and fast (the ice in Anchorage was like skating on pure diamond, so that was rare for our team), or you were playing at altitude (Colorado), it was damn near impossible to play an up-tempo hockey game.
There was an undeniable difference in the type of hockey game that was played when we were on the big ice versus the NHL-sized rinks, so I don't think it's unreasonable for a country to select their Olympic roster with this in mind. Plenty of people are okay with the concept of "take the best NHL all-star team you can" – they wouldn't be terrible, but I think you can do better.
So what's different on the big ice:
First off, the hockey is a lot more possession-based.

TV Series: Game of Thrones, Season 1 (HBO – 2011)
Book: A Game of Thrones (Song of Ice and Fire #1), George R.R. Martin
Book Summary: Long ago, in a time forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons out of balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. The cold is returning, and in the frozen wastes to the north of Winterfell, sinister and supernatural forces are massing beyond the kingdom's protective Wall. At the center of the conflict lie the Starks of Winterfell, a family as harsh and unyielding as the land they were born to. (Amazon| Goodreads)
I read the book first (see my full discussion here), and then watched the TV series a few months later.
My Opinion: The TV Series – by just a little bit.
Reason: In the book, each chapter is told from the point of view of one of nine characters, and at first, it wasn't easy to keep everything straight. It takes a while to get comfortable & remember who all the characters are – but there was no such problem with the tv series, which is why I give it the edge over the book.
The TV series is one of the best visual adaptations of a book that I've ever seen. The characters were PERFECTLY cast, the scenery & settings was just as I pictured it in my head, the plot followed the book very closely, and each of the 10 episodes of Season 1 was interesting and well acted.
SO, if you've read the book, then make SURE to watch the tv series too, you won't be disappointed. If you haven't yet read the book – watch the TV show, and then watch season 2!
Have you read A Game of Thrones or watched the TV series? What did you think?

Difference of opinion
Yet this view stands in contrast to the assessment that Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and Lt. Gen. Ronald Burgess, director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, provided in their Senate testimony last week. Burgess, for his part, noted that while the Taliban is under more pressure than ever before, the insurgent group is resilient and tenacious, and that its influence remains pervasive throughout much of the country.
Although the Taliban have taken "tactical losses, they continue to maintain influence over much of the local population, particularly outside urban areas," he told the committee.
While US troops have had some tactical victories in the east and removed "several key leaders from the battlefield … this does not appear to have affected their operational capacity, which included conducting several high-profile attacks against [NATO] bases in 2010," Burgess stressed.
Sen. John McCain, the Senate Armed Service Committee's top Republican, pointed out these contrasts in testimony Tuesday. Petraeus responded: "With respect, I have tried to avoid what might be labeled optimism or pessimism," he said, "and have tried to provide realism."

Third Man Charged In Death Of UM Med Student
Wednesday, February 12, 2014
(Ann Arbor, MI) -- A third man has been arraigned on charges in connection with the death of a University of Michigan medical student last July. Yesterday, 21-year-old Dejeon Franklin was arraigned on felony murder and home invasion charges in the death of 25-year-old Paul DeWolf. Twenty-one-year-old Shaquille Jones and 20-year-old Joei Jordan have also been charged in the case, and both have said Franklin had the gun when the three broke into DeWolf's apartment. Jones pleaded guilty to second-degree murder last week and faces up to a minimum of 18 years in prison.

Friends, this is a sad day, for we've witnessed the retirement of the best player in NHL 95.
Alright, that's not an indisputable fact, but I just remember streaking down centre ice with Doug Weight, and deftly splitting the defence with that patented Gordon Bombay triple deke. In the rare times that Weight failed, Zdeno Cigar was there to pick up the scraps, and Curtis Joseph was sealing the crease shut back in the other end. Glory days indeed.
After 19 NHL seasons the always scrappy Weight officially announced his retirement earlier today. On the wrong end of the hockey hill at the age of 40 and plagued by a bad back (the last time he appeared in at least 55 games was 2006-07), Weight will immediately go from sitting on the bench to standing behind it, as he's been given the title of assistant coach and senior adviser to New York Islanders general manger Garth Snow.
We could write poetically about Weight's nine years in Edmonton when he served as the team's captain, years that were the prime of his career in which he scored 577 of his 1,033 points. And we could reflect back on his Stanley cup win with the Carolina Hurricanes in 2006, or his Olympic silver medal in 2002.
But it's much more fun to look back on a few memories of Weight being Weight with some visual stimulation.
Bryan Marchment probably deserved this
When Bryan Marchment was on the ice, players were always angry. That may have had something to do with the fact that he was a dirtbag who would run your mother into the boards if he was given the chance. He was the original Matt Cooke during a time when the Wheel of Justice was just in its development phase.
Weight had been a victim of Marchment's usual cheap shot douchebagery prior to the hit shown above, so he took the law into his own hands, and the law won.
The Wheel of Justice would not be pleased
I think we can agree that we can't agree on anything regarding head shots in today's NHL, so if you'd like to re-open the debate on this hit from three years ago, you're welcome to unleash angry rants in the space below. You're probably better off just waiting for tomorrow night's head shot though.
Weight wasn't punished, and the devastation he was able to cause here best demonstrates his ability throw an effective open-ice hit, a skill he maintained throughout his career.
Bad early 90′s TV graphics, epic Devils jerseys, and a scrappy young Weight
Weight didn't drop the mitts often, and only had 11 career regular season fights. But when he did, it was usually a pretty spirited bout. Here in sparkling early 90′s standard definition we see Weight trading fists with Devils forward Laurie Boschman way back in 1991 during his first NHL season.

Veterinary surgeons
You may have noticed that veterinary surgeons have the initials 'MRCVS' or 'FRCVS' after their names.
This stands for member, or fellow, of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), and indicates their registration with the RCVS, the regulatory body for veterinary surgeons in the UK.
The title 'veterinary surgeon' is protected in law: only those who are registered with the RCVS can use the title.
'Veterinary surgery' as an area of work is protected by the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966. This means that activities described as veterinary surgery can only be carried out by veterinary surgeons, with some exemptions.
With rights come responsibilities, and the same legislation that protects the profession of veterinary surgery also lays down the way in which the profession should be regulated.
More details about the Veterinary Surgeons Act, and how we are trying to modernise veterinary legislation, can be found on the main RCVS website.
The veterinary profession is made up of around 24,000 registered individuals. Just over 17,000 of these are registered as 'home practising' members, which means they can practise in the UK.
The profession is a varied one: veterinary surgeons can be found working in clinical practice (most commonly, small animal, farm animal, equine or exotic), research, academia, industry or government.
All RCVS-registered veterinary surgeons have achieved an educational qualification that meets our registration requirements. In addition, those practising in the UK agree to abide by the RCVS Code of Professional Conduct for Veterinary Surgeons and commit to keep their skills and knowledge up to date, by means of continuing professional development.
Maintaining standards
The RCVS regulates the educational, professional and ethical standards of all veterinary surgeons, regardless of the kind of work they do. A robust investigation and disciplinary mechanism is in place and will be triggered if a veterinary surgeon falls short of the standards expected by the profession and the public.
Information about how to raise a concern about a veterinary surgeon can be found in the 'I want to raise a concern' section.
Check the Register
You can check online to see if a veterinary surgeon is registered or call us on 020 7202 0707. If you have concerns about an individual who you believe is practising as a veterinary surgeon and does not appear to be registered with us, please contact us immediately and we will pass the details to the relevant authorities. Unqualified and/or unregistered people acting as veterinary surgeons can have serious implications for animal health, and even human health.
Further information
- For a profile of the veterinary profession, see the RCVS Facts publication on the right.
- You can also download the findings of our RCVS Survey of the Veterinary and Veterinary Nursing Professions 2010 (see 'Related documents' box - top right)
Veterinary nurses
Some people in the team at your veterinary practice will have the initials 'VN' or 'RVN' after their names.
The title 'veterinary nurse', and the letters 'VN', should only be used by those who have completed an approved veterinary nurse training course and are listed with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS), the regulatory body for veterinary nursing.
Registered veterinary nurses (RVNs) go a step further and agree to be accountable for their professional practice.
There are over 9,000 registered or listed veterinary nurses in the UK.
Veterinary nurses provide professional care for sick animals and support for their owners and are important members of the veterinary team.
They are trained to provide a high standard of nursing care based on a sound knowledge of the patient's condition and its individual needs. They also play a significant role in the education of owners about maintaining the health of their animals and work closely with them to manage a variety of preventative health issues, such as dental hygiene and nutrition.
Veterinary nurses most commonly work in clinical veterinary practice – usually small animal practice, although sometimes in equine, exotic or mixed practice. Some work in industry, academia or research.
Qualified veterinary nurses must become listed with the RCVS in order to undertake a range of technical procedures under veterinary direction. These include diagnostic tests such as radiography and laboratory analysis, medical treatments, including administration of medication and intravenous fluid therapy, and minor surgical procedures, such as suturing and assisting with wound management.
Registered veterinary nurses (RVNs)
Registered veterinary nurses are listed veterinary nurses who have gone one step further, and are accountable for their professional practice. The RCVS Register of Veterinary Nurses was established on a non-statutory basis in 2007 and all newly qualified nurses now join the Register.
RVNs commit to following the RCVS Code of Professional Conduct for Veterinary Nurses and keeping their skills and knowledge up to date by means of continuing professional development.
Registered veterinary nurses are allowed to use the letters 'RVN' after their name.
From 1 April 2011, the RCVS will investigate complaints made against RVNs, in the same way that complaints about veterinary surgeons are considered. This new development signals the movement of veterinary nursing towards a fully recognised profession.
Information on how to raise a concern about a registered veterinary nurse can be found in the 'I want to raise a concern' section.

Brothers at Relay for Life
The Alpha Sigs are involved with many philanthropy events as a brotherhood. The main event is Relay for Life, which is put on every spring at Harold Burry Stadium. The event has been growing in recent years, and it is one of the largest relays for small colleges. The past two years, we have totaled over $25,000 each for the American Cancer Society. More information can be found at http://www.relayforlife.org.
The Alpha Sigs are also involved with helping out the New Wilmington Volunteer Fire Department. The brothers help out with the annual Fireman's Auction, which is located in town. In past years, the brothers have turned their house into a haunted house around Halloween. The profits of this exciting event go directly to the fire department.

Google Will Give a Search Edge To Websites That Use Encryption
timothy posted about 6 months ago | from the bit-of-an-incentive dept.
148As TechCrunch reports, Google will begin using website encryption, or HTTPS, as a ranking signal – a move which should prompt website developers who have dragged their heels on increased security measures, or who debated whether their website was "important" enough to require encryption, to make a change. Initially, HTTPS will only be a lightweight signal, affecting fewer than 1% of global queries, says Google. ... Over time, however, encryption's effect on search ranking [may] strengthen, as the company places more importance on website security. ... While HTTPS and site encryption have been a best practice in the security community for years, the revelation that the NSA has been tapping the cables, so to speak, to mine user information directly has prompted many technology companies to consider increasing their own security measures, too. Yahoo, for example, also announced in November its plans to encrypt its data center traffic.

text: Just wondered if anybody with experience of Disneyland entertainment could give me a heads-up. I'm visiting Anaheim between 22nd and 26th September and noticed that there are no fireworks being shown in the main park and it looks like there is no schedule for Aladdin at the Hyperion Theater either... does anybody know if this is just because it's a few weeks away yet and schedules haven't been confirmed, or is it likely neither of these things will be taking place. I was hoping to experience both at some point during my visit, but looks like it might not be possible this year after all... :no:

Like Eden, which it resembles in other ways, Valderrama is a bit underpopulated. The club has 432 members, and they live on several continents. On a clear, warm afternoon, I sit on the terrace looking out over the oak-studded eighteenth fairway, and during a long lunch and a chat with a member, I see exactly no one on the course.
My companion explains that his friends like things just as they are: "This club wasn't founded so that people could crowd one another." In the clubhouse, luxury awaits anyone who shows up, the tables aglitter with glassware, and in the lounge, a little cart, which once trucked grain around an Andalusian barn, now bears calvados and cognac and a humidor full of Montecristos, Davidoffs, Partagas.
Things won't be so quiet on November fourth, when some sixty-five of the best players in the world convene at Valderrama for the third and final leg of the 1999 World Golf Championship. They'll compete for five million dollars in prize money (with a million going to the winner) on a course generally considered the finest in Europe. With its meticulously maintained fairways and flawless greens, its rolling terrain and long Mediterranean views, it's a place of serene beauty. Very occasionally, serenity can turn into acute distress, as the 1997 Ryder Cup team discovered when winds picked up. But even without winds, some ingenious and controversial design decisions can complicate your game.
Valderrama is clearly the jewel of Spain's Costa del Sol, though it's scarcely alone. Thirty-nine courses dot the shoreline of this beautiful corner of the Mediterranean, which a local magazine calls the "Costa del Golf." You can put together a memorable campaign here: La Cala, San Roque, Sotogrande. The chances are that golf will exhaust you before you exhaust it. No matter, because then you will want to go in search of Andalusia.
Andalusia contains the Costa del Sol and much more as well--the inland cities of Seville, Córdoba, Granada and the little white-washed towns of the hills (the pueblos blancos), parched, rocky mountains and green river valleys and much of Spain's history. Andalusia is the place where thosepostcard images of Spain, bullfighting and flamenco, began and where they live on. It's the birthplace of much of Spain's genius as well, including, in this century, Lorca and Picasso.
You might as well begin where you are: on the luxurious coastline. The recent development of the Costa del Sol is ritualistically lamented. There is much to dismay but little to shock an American traveler, unless he is remembering the "undiscovered" (and impoverished) coastline that could be found here as recently as the sixties. It is mostly the sun-hungry Britis h who have effected the change, which happened quickly enough that the occasional peasant farm can be seen among the billboards. The place now evokes a nascent southern California, with its sere hills and slightly frantic traffic--monumental nature meeting monumental commerce.

Stanford Business School Goes Green
Posted by: Louis Lavelle on September 12, 2008
There it is, folks: the new Stanford Business School campus. Slated to open in the 2010-11 academic year, the $350 million project is easily one of the most ambitious business school construction plans in recent memory. It includes eight separate buildings around three quads and will contain a 600-seat lecture hall, dining facilities, underground parking for 900 vehicles, and dedicated space for career management and executive education programs.
And one last thing: the whole shootin' match will be LEED platinum certified by the U.S. Green Building Council, the highest sustainable building certifcation you can get. All of which is something of a trend among b-schools these days, as Francesca DiMeglio points out in today's top b-school story.
How green will the new campus be? Very. In addition to recylcing or salvaging as much as 75% of the construction debris created during the building phase, when complete the project aims to reduce overall water usage by at least 30%, exceed current energy efficiency standards by at least 40%, and use rainwater or re-circulated "gray water" to reduce potable water use for building sewage by 80%.
What makes this really interesting to me is that the whole project, which is being named for Nike founder Phil Knight (MBA '62) in recognition of his $105 million gift, was designed to accomodate Stanford's new curriculum, which calls for smaller classes and cross-disciplinary experiences with Stanford's six other schoools. So it's filled with flexible classroom space, breakout rooms, and other features. Dean Robert L. Joss summed it up at the groundbreaking on Wednesday.
Leading universities of the 21st century need business schools that foster extraordinary intellectual innovation and collaboration. This new campus provides the physical infrastructure to enable that academic vision to come to life at Stanford.
That, and it'll have that new-campus smell, too.

Race car driver Gracie makes speed her business
PUBLISHED: 24 Mar 2014 04:50:15 | UPDATED: 24 Mar 2014 04:50:15PUBLISHED: 24 Mar 2014 PRINT EDITION: 24 Mar 2014Renee Gracie says sponsors will soon expect big things. Photo: Jesse Marlow
Lucille Keen and John Stensholt
Emerging Australian racing car driver Renee Gracie is taking a business approach to her career.
Gracie, 19, competes in the Australian Porsche Carrera Cup series as she attempts to move up the ranks of the motor racing circuit.
Having joined the series two years ago, Gracie is being mentored by entrepreneur Gillian Franklin , the chief executive of Australian-owned cosmetics company Heat Group and the director of the Australian Grand Prix Corporation.
"I've found that women are not always very good at going about networking, but at 19 I think Renee is already very good at it," Franklin says
"I was approached to mentor her after the Grand Prix last year and we started formally in September."
With Franklin's help, Gracie formulated a three-year strategic plan listing pathways she will follow to fulfil her key performance indicators, including race results and off-track matters.
"For example, at the Grand Prix in Melbourne last week [at which the Carrera Cup was a support category] and she has to get faster," Franklin says.
"So she got a personal best and finished 15th, whereas before she was finishing 23rd to 25th."
Sourcing sponsorship has yielded mixed results for Gracie.
Some have knocked her back because she is female while others have embraced her brave challenge on track.
"At the end of the day, sponsors like Red Bull and V8 Supercars aren't looking for a girl or a boy; they're looking for someone who is fast, who can win. They just want their brand recognised," says Gracie.
"Not every sponsor we approach says 'cool, you're a girl'."
The former self-professed "hobby" go-kart driver became the first female competing in the Carrera Cup two years ago and scooped up a major sponsor in Fujitsu.
"They've been great to promote me as a brand and not just as a race car driver, which is how I got my other sponsors," Ms Gracie said.
But sponsorship doesn't come cheap. The car, repairs and travel add up to $500,000.
"If I didn't have sponsors, I wouldn't be racing. I don't come from a wealthy background.
"My dad has pretty much spent every last cent he had on my go-karting."
Gracie says this year, she was six seconds behind the winner. That's down to four to five seconds off.
She says she is still learning and developing, which her sponsors understand, but she admits they will be expecting bigger things from her in the coming years.

Pacific Sands, Inc. (OTCBB: PFSD) -- The board of directors of Pacific Sands is pleased to announce that the company has negotiated a funding package with a group of local, qualified, individual investors.
The group of individuals purchased a total of 1,250,000 restricted, rule 144 treasury shares from the company during December of 2006 for a total investment of $125,000. Additionally, the investors have been issued two sets of options to purchase additional restricted shares from the company. The first options, callable on Feb. 1, 2007, are for 625,000 restricted, rule 144 treasury shares at 10 cents per share. The second set of options, callable June 15, 2007, are for 625,000 restricted, rule 144 treasury shares at 15 cents per share.
In June of 2004, as part of the management transition arrangement, Pacific Sands recovered and placed in treasury 7,559,187 shares of stock from previous management and insiders at a cost basis of approximately 2 cents per share.
"We're very pleased to have our funding come from local sources," said Pacific Sands President and CEO Michael Wynhoff. "These are real investors who made their investment decisions based on a careful examination of the company, its operations, products and growth rate."
