My wife and I stayed here in early September for our honeymoon. We were in the Hibiscus Villas which were out of this world. The views from the balcony are breathtaking and you can hear the sea lapping gently from your bed. The room was extremely spacious. Overall the facilities at halfmoon are excellent. It has a beautiful sense of history with mature gardens, lovely beaches and it is peaceful and serene. It is picture perfect throughout.
The staff were very friendly although a few did let the place down on a couple of occasions although I can understand it is difficult for a place of this size to control everything perfectly. The main disappointment was the food. Other than breakfast which we had served on our balcony every room, the food was quite disappointing. Additionally it is worth checking what restaurants were open as we visited during off season and quite a few of the restaurants advertised were shut. Finally taxis from the resort were very expensive. $80 to the town and back. Other than that. Excellent resort and I feel if they can just sort out some little details it will be 100% perfect.

Fernando's Restaurant, Hac Sa.
Many people travel to Hac Sa to go to Fernando's restaurant. This is a famous Portuguese restaurant in Macau. It is normally very busy and you cannot reserve a table there. We tried to get in several times in the past, but as we dislike queuing, always ended up in the Hac Sa Parque Restaurant next door. This time there was no queue at Fernando's, perhaps because it was such a miserable day, but as we have now developed a fondness for the Hac Sa Parque Restaurant, we went straight there instead.

Hac Sa Park, Coloane.
Just behind the main bus stop for Hac Sa there is a park which is a pleasant place to visit. In addition to flowers, greenery, drinks machines, it has a huge swimming pool (waterless during our visit), tennis courts and a basketball court.

Hac Sa Beach, Coloane Island.
We recently returned to Hac Sa when I took my husband to the Hotel Westin for his birthday. Hac Sa means black sands and it is located on Coloane Island. The black sands refer to the 4KM long crescent shaped volcanic sand beach located here. As the beach erodes, the local authorities are bringing in yellow sand to replace it, so the beach is currently a mixture of the two types of sand.
Behind the beach there is a village with restaurants, a park, barbeque pits and lots of marine themed statues. Hac Sa is popular with locals and is a relatively peaceful place away from the crowds and casino madness.Related to:- Beaches

Dr. Carlos D'assumpcao Park
This park near the Kuan Yin statue is a peaceful place for a stroll, a seat in the shade on a hot day or a visit to the little tea house. It is not a must see site, but it is a lovely quiet local area to sit down and relax in.

Golden Lotus Square
This square is near the Grand Prix Museum and Wine Museum. In the centre is a large golden lotus. Its layers represent Macau mainland, Taipa and Coloane. It was placed there to commemorate the end of Portuguese rule and the return to Mainland China.

The Kuan Yin Statue
Kuan Yin is the Chinese goddess of mercy. There is a lovely statue of her standing on a lotus flower. The statue juts out into the sea. Inside the statue complex there are exhibitions about Kuan Yin, some stalls and a library. We sat downstairs for a while: me - falling asleep while listening to the deeply meditative music; my husband - making use of the free Wifi. You can also sit outside and listen to the music while gazing out over the sea. Very relaxing.

The Moorish Barracks
These barracks are located near Lilau Square. They date from around 1874. They were designed by an Italian architect to house around two hundred Muslim Indian policemen who came to Macau from Goa. We were not able to go inside. I'm not sure if that is always true or if they were just closed when we visited.

Lilau Square
This pretty little square has seats, a kiosk and colourful Portuguese style buildings. It is near the mandarin's house, the Moorish barracks, the Ama Temple and Penha Church. A pleasant place to sit and relax.

Coloane Island
Coloane is the furthest away island from mainland Macau. There are several things to see here. First of all, there is Coloane Village with its fish hanging up drying in the sun, its picturesque old houses, its little Chapel of St Francis Xavier and its Lord Stow Bakery, this is the best place in Macau for the Portuguese egg tart. Delicious! Chris Patten was a regular. Then there is the statue of Tin Hau perched on its hill top. We spent a very pleasant day hiking up to the base of that. Furthermore, there are its beaches: Hac Sa with its black volcanic sands and the much quieter Cheok Van. Many people come to Coloane purely for the most famous restaurant in Macau -Fernando's. Everyone raves about it, but I am ashamed to say I have never been. Every time we arrive at its door there is queue a mile long and we go and eat elsewhere as I do not believe in queueing for anything unless I absolutely have to.

SunYat Sen Park.
The Sun Yat-Sen Park is located in the northwest of the Macau near the Chinese border. The park is 390 meters long and 130 meters wide and covers an area of about 70,000 square meters.
The park was originally created in 1987. Then in 1990 a bronze statue of Doctor Sun Yat-sen was placed at the entrance to the park and the park became known as the Sun Yat Sen Park. Doctor Sun Yat-sen is the Father of the Revolution in China.
The park has two main parts. The northeast part has traditional Chinese garden with lakes, zig-zag bridges and towers. The southwestern section is more European and has sports facilities and greenhouses.
In the centre of the park there is a steel statue of two shaking hands. This symbolizes the friendshp between Portugal and China. The park also has an open-air theatre and a swimming pool. There are good views from the park into Mainland China.Related to:- Photography
Old Taipa Village
Continual land reclamation in Macau is joining the mainland and islands more and more together.
One interesting area to visit in Taipa is Old Taipa Village with its beautiful old blue and green colonial houses and yellow Church of Our Lady of Carmel. Some of the old houses are now museums.
Food Street with its many restaurants is nearby.Related to:- Historical Travel

The Guia Fortress.
The Guia Fortress was built between 1622 and 1638. Along with the Mount Fortress this fortress played a huge role in driving off the attempted Dutch invasion of Macau in 1622.
Inside the fortress is Guia Chapel which was set up by Clarist nuns in 1622, and Guia Lighthouse, which dates from 1865. This lighthouse was the first modern lighthouse on the Chinese coast. Macau takes its co-ordinates from the location of the lighthouse.
Guia Fortress sits on top of Guia Hill. It is possible to walk here or take the cable car up the hill. Near the foot of Guia Hill there are pleasant gardens and a small zoo and aviary.Related to:- Historical Travel

The Chapel of Our Lady of Penha.
The Chapel of Our Lady of Penha sits on top of Penha Hill on the Barra Peninsula. The original chapel was built here in 1622 by the crew and passengers of a Portuguese ship which had only just narrowly escaped capture by the Dutch. The chapel became a common place of worship for those about to set out on dangerous voyages. There are good views from this location and the steep walk up the hill involves passing some interesting buildings.

Museum of the Holy House of Mercy
Holy House of Mercy is an historic white structure in Macau's Senado Square . It was built in 1569 on the orders of the Bishop of Macao.The museum was located in a quiet lane just off Senado Square in the centre of the city, the house is often overlooked and mistaken for a government office.
It was a medical clinic and several other social welfare structures in early Macau. It later served as an orphanage and refuge for widowers of sailors lost at sea.
Admission: MOP$5
Opening Hours: 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.; 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

St. Dominic's Church
Standing on the site of a chapel and convent built by the Dominicans in the 1590's St. Dominic's Church dates from the early 17th century. It has an imposing facade of cream-colored stone with white stucco moldings and green-shutter windows.
St. Dominic's Church has a violently dramatic past. In 1644 a military officer who supported the Spanish against the Portuguese was murdered at the alter during Mass. In 1707 the Dominicans sided with the Pope against Macau's bishop in the Rites Controversy. When local soldiers tried to enforce an excommunication order on them, the friars locked themselves in the church for three days and pelted the soldiers with stones. In 1834 the monastic orders were suppressed and for a time the church was used by the government as barracks, stable and public works office.
St. Dominic's Church was renovated in 1997 and opened to the public with a museum, on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floor. The museum shows paintings, sculptures and liturgical ornaments that illustrate the history of the Roman Catholic church in Asia.
The church is now part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Historic Centre of Macau.Related to:- Architecture

It's quite a time for vicious breakups: Jesse James and Sandra Bullock, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren. And just last week Esquire released a scathing story about the breakup of ex-Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich's second marriage (not the first one — when he married his high school geometry teacher).
In it, Gingrich's ex-wife Marianne exposed what really went down when the couple split in 2000. Gingrich — who publicly preached family values — was having an affair with the woman who would become wife number three, and asked Marianne to "tolerate" it. According to Marianne, he told her he wanted to split because "she was a Jaguar and all he wanted was a Chevrolet. 'I can't handle a Jaguar right now.' He said that many times. 'All I want is a Chevrolet.'"
In honor of Newt and Marianne — and all the other not-so-happily broken-up couples out there — we've compiled a list of some of the nastiest celebrity breakups. Enjoy!

I bet Corki is half-human.
Aura Shadow
If corki is a yordle why is he not furry like the other yordles? That's the only reason i think he isnt. I mean shouldnt he look like other yordles? I know it's somewhat implied, but it never states it, which leads me to believe he isnt....i would love some actual kind of proof or something .... Edit: also, along with him not having any fur, havent you noticed how he has a human nose? That's not a feature that the other yordles have... Also, his lore doesnt completly disporve that he is not a yordle, only somewhat. So you will have to have better evidence than that...
I believe one of two things about Corki (whom, I know is a yordle.) Either, being a male yordle, he shaved off his excess hair, OR Yordles bald as they get older like humans.
Lead Designer
Corki is a yordle as is Heimerdinger even though they don't really look like yordles. In fact their odd appearance may be somehow connected.....
From staying too far from bandle city? ._. Obligatory self promotion ! Full yordle Corki!!

Georgetown wins in OT, 95-85 over Marquette
MILWAUKEE (AP) D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera hit five 3-pointers and finished with 19 points, and Joshua Smith added 18 points and 15 rebounds to help Georgetown beat Marquette 95-85 in overtime on Saturday.
Tre Campbell hit an open 3-pointer from the corner to give Georgetown an 89-85 lead in overtime, and after Matt Carlino missed, Smith-Rivera hit two of Georgetown's six free throws in the final 39 seconds.
Isaac Copeland had 17 points and Campbell added 14 for Georgetown (14-5, 6-2 Big East).


text: The City is in a crises, and Mayor Cook was off to a football game in San Antonio. His responses came from Austin. This is appalling! It's no wonder we are floundering amidst the incompetence and irresponsible actions of our Mayor and Public Utilities. Those responsible should be held in our contempt. The citizens of El Paso are NOT to blame. Let's hold those who failed us responsible, and demand resignations of the Administrators and City "leaders" who created this "crisis"!

Repeal Day Marks The End Of 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell'
By Margot Adler
"Don't ask, don't tell" is no more. The policy barred openly gay, lesbian or bisexual people from serving in the military. Gay rights groups held Repeal Day celebrations across the country. One celebration took place in New York City at the historic Stonewall Inn, the birthplace of the gay rights movement.

CM bakery treat preview of Fountainview
Soft Opening rumored to be September 4th.
Outside of the cupcakes, these offerings aren't anything spectacular.
I'm not a fan of Starbucks pastries. Always taste kinda stale but in a pinch I'll eat them, at Disney I'm never in a pinch, too many better options for QS food, well except DHS, can't believe they can't rectify that.
And Fountain got its Starbucks logo today.
I'm with you. DHS really has some of the worst dining options anywhere at WDW. Then again, I don't think I've ever stopped for a meal at Animal Kingdom, either. Never once in all the years the park has been open have I purchased food. Wow.
Will they be keeping the Fountain View name?
As far as I know Fountain View name is staying. It fits the building and is non-nondescript. Disney went there originally with the Main Street Bakery then backed off and left the name. Actually that one they could of should have changed, it is misleading, it is no longer a bakery, it is a coffee shop, if they were going to leave the name my thoughts are they should have left Disney pastries in there. The few token items don't count and many are not sold until after 11am. I just find it a bit misguided to comprimise with the revolters by giving them them the name and omitting the goods. Likely Disney was in a choke hold with the contract signed by Starbucks and if I was Starbucks I wouldn't yield to fans either.
What is interesting is that Starbucks isn't doing so well. Most hours of the day guests can walk right up and order.
Most guests entering the MK are on a mission to do something. Stopping for 10-15 minutes to get coffee or high end beverages isn't in the itinerary as they enter the Kingdom. My gut is Epcot's will do better. There are not choices in World Showcase and going to the Land if that isn't your plan and going downstairs to get coffee, well Starbucks is a good option and FW is more laid back and you might have time to drink it as you stand in line for either Soar'n or Test Track.
Side bar: AK has some excellent snacks and options. Flame's ribs and chicken are some of the best I have had anywhere at Disney or around the country. Yak and Yeti is one of my Favorite TS in Disney. The entrees are unique and very tasty. The desserts are original and yummy. The theming in the restaurant is superior and it is broken up into areas so it isn't loud. I feel badly for the owners. This establishment was to be open for Lunch and Dinner. They spent a lot of money to construct that building and theme it and it has nice furnishings. When it opened AK stayed open later and had EM hours. Disney closing that park early and omitting EMH has really cut their source of revenue. It was opened within the year (later than expected) of Everest and likely Disney expected Everest to be the Savior of that park. Didn't happen and because Y&Y is well into the park they cannot stay open like RainForest can.
Actually this pastry appeals to me more than anything on that tray...
More Starbuck Signs in case you missed the one over the door.
Testing happening by ticket invite over this week and next in the morning. Not a bad idea. There might be more of a demand at Epcot over the MK.
Interestingly this is the photo Disney released, very different than the fan photo's that capture the 3 Starbuck signs in a row. By the angle and trees of Disney's photo you would hardly know it was a Starbucks. Got to love photography.
to give a little perspective of the size of the Starbuck signs that seem small above
And no seating in here either. Mistake in my opinion. This is a CM preview, test run, 2 free items to test out. This still wasn't the finished room, decorators were still coming after the preview.
I'm actually not offended by these pictures. Nice integration of an outside brand onto Disney property.
As for seating, I can't see the restaurant being devoid of seats for too long. Once drinks start being brought onto rides and coffee is spilled all over Test Track, they'll add seating areas.
My point was more of how it was photographed. Disney photo made the signs look small. The Lifestyle photo more straight on demonstrated how large the signs actually are.
There is really plenty of room both at Epcot and the MK for seating. MK rapidly dropped off in Starbuck purchases the day after it opened. We shall see about Epcot. I saw a quote, 'if Epcot guests just started sitting on the sidewalk like hobos around Starbucks in Epcot there soon would be seating.' True.
And onward with Starbucks. On the West Side of DTD, Starbucks will displace Wetzel Pretzel and Haagen Dazs Ice Cream, relocating them near Disney Quest.
Also, in the DTD MarketPlace area Starbucks will open up near the World of Disney Store. Kind of reminds me of yesteryear and how rapidly McDonalds expanded through Disney Property in various forms.
Briefly, I missed the mention of the West Side and thought they were taking the pretzel stand away from the stage area in the Market Place. I so rarely go to the West Side that I didn't realize there was a Wetzel's there, too. Suddenly I'm thinking, moving Wetzel's means it'll be too far to walk for a pretzel. Glad this isn't the case.
Reminds me of yesteryear when Starbucks themselves were rapidly expanding throughout major cities. Once we had a Starbucks across from a Starbucks, it was getting to be a bit much.
Wasn't referencing your post, so I hope you didn't take offense. I just meant that surprisingly, I'm not insulted by the integration of Starbucks into the Fountainview. From the way people were originally carrying on, you would have thought the world was ending.
From the fan photos, it would seem that the Disney's use of forced perspective is working here, too. Larger cup makes the signs appear a bit smaller. Have to check this out for myself later this year.
I wonder how the pricing structure is. Are we talking Starbucks prices or Disney prices? Or are they basically the same thing? I'm not a coffee drinker so I have no basis here.

Maddox and Pax Visit Smiley Brad Pitt For a Day on the World War Z Set
Brad Pitt had two special visitors, his sons Maddox and Pax Jolie-Pitt, on the set of World War Z in Malta Saturday. Pax looked superstylish in his skinny jeans while Brad Pitt was once again in his World War Z scarf, cargo pants, and navy shirt, which at this points seems to be his one and only outfit for the zombie film. The Jolie-Pitts may be missing out on the July 4 festivities stateside, but they're still getting in the spirit of Summer overseas. Angelina Jolie wore a wetsuit for a family trip to a local water park last Monday, and she was also spotted bringing the six kids out bowling later in the week.

I buy Apple/Carrot Crushers from Trader Joe's on a regular basis. The format is like the other products you see above, and my kids love it.
When I went to the Fancy Food Show in San Francisco with my mom last month, I saw a bunch more squeezable items and thought the new baby food packaging was pretty cool. I never felt great about throwing a glass jar of baby food into my diaper bag — a pouch seems safer for transport.
Note that a couple of the items above have really big caps. That's because the manufacturers are meeting the guidelines for safety re: choking.
(I love this packaging from Revolution Food.)
So what do you think? Weird? Yum?

Minnesota coach Jerry Kill suffered another game-day seizure, at halftime while the Gophers were playing Western Illinois on Saturday, and was taken to a local hospital as a precaution. The university said Kill was resting comfortably, after he was taken away on a stretcher following his latest episode. Kill was lying on the ground right after the Gophers left for the locker room with a 7-6 lead, writhing back and forth for several minutes with medical staff surrounding him in attempt to keep him as still as possible to prevent injury.

Keeping Up with Assessment and Grading
Assessing students' achievement is an integral part of teaching, and like everything else in the profession, it has become more complicated. The days of giving a chapter test and calling it good are over. That's not a bad thing though. To really keep tabs on who's learning what, assessment has to be an ongoing process, and it has to offer kids a variety of ways to show what they know and what they can do.
To be thorough and effective, assessment has to include the three main types of measurement: diagnostic, formative, and summative. Diagnostic assessment is imperative, since it's impossible to know how much ground students have gained at the end of a study unit unless we know where they were at the beginning. Formative assessment checks their learning along the way and provides an opportunity to adjust lesson plans, if necessary, and to address specific problems a struggling student might be experiencing. Summative assessment at the end of a study unit indicates kids' overall mastery of new material and gives a clear idea about how to proceed in instruction. A review of all six types of assessment can be found here at edudemic.com. Another good site with information about assessment practices is utexas.edu/teaching.
Changes Are Afoot for the SAT
Posted: March 6, 2014 Filed under: College Students, Education, High School Students, Teachers & Teaching | Tags: act, college application, college board, High School Students, sat, sat essay, sat vocabulary, standardized tests, Testing, The College Board Comments OffYesterday it was announced that the SAT would be revising its test for the second time in just over a decade. To help you prepare for the next version of this popular standardized test, find here an outline of the changes plus other important announcements from The College Board that will impact future college admissions.
What will the new SAT look like?
The new SAT, to be released in 2016, will feature four significant changes:
- The SAT essay, introduced in 2005, will become an optional segment of the exam
- SAT scoring, also changed in 2005, will return from the 2400- to the 1600-point system
- Points will no longer be deducted for incorrect answers (currently students lose 1/4 of a point for each wrong answer)
- And lastly, "SAT vocabulary" will become a thing of the past, as complete-the-sentence sections of the exam are replaced by ones that test students' critical reading of a passage.
Why make these changes?
One thought that struck me when I read over these changes was that the SAT is increasingly becoming more like the ACT. The criteria are familiar: no deduction of points for incorrect answers, no required essay, and a significant critical reading section are all key points of the ACT that many students over the past decade have recognized as advantages to taking it over the SAT. So much so that gone are the days that the SAT is the go-to test; when I was a high school junior, nobody ever mentioned the ACT, but when I became a test-prep tutor five years later it was the exam 90% of my students elected to take. Why? When they were evaluated at the start of our course, the overwhelming majority performed better on the ACT than the SAT. It gave them a step-up in achieving a higher ranking, and as students' favor of the test increased, colleges' willingness to accept it on equal terms with the SAT followed suit.
For whatever reason, be it an attempt to curry more favor (and cash) or a genuine recognition of a need to assess students more fairly, the SAT is moving towards a format more similar to the ACT.
What do these changes mean for students?
When I tutored students for the SAT, a significant focus of our preparation was on strategy. To perform well, one has to form a plan of attack, making a practical decision from the outset on how many questions would need to be answered to achieve the desired score. That's because every wrong answer a student might give could decrease his or her overall score, thanks to the quarter-point deduction for an incorrect choice. Except for the cases where students strove for a perfect score, it was more advantageous to leave x number of questions blank.
Now, however, the idea of "SAT strategy" will be tossed by the wayside. Is this good or bad? Perhaps we should simply say it assesses a different skill. The SAT Reasoning Test, to go by its full name, was designed to test a student's ability to reason and evaluate. In reality, though, this has meant that Read the rest of this entry »
Education Testing…1…2…3
Posted: November 9, 2010 Filed under: College Students | Tags: High School Students, teachers, Testing Comments OffDoes more equal better? When it concerns students' essay scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SATs), that may well be the case. Milo Beckman, a fourteen-year-old student at Stuyvesant High School in New York conducted a study among his peers after becoming frustrated with the scores he received on the exam. Beckman took the exam twice, and to his surprise, discovered that his second test scored higher than the first, although he deemed the first attempt to be superior in quality. The second essay he wrote was considerably longer, but not, in the students' opinion, as well written.
Beckman then polled 115 students who had taken the exam in his school, asking them to count the number of words they had written. The students who wrote lengthier essays almost always received a higher score, despite the quality of the content. Beckman's results were confirmed by MIT professor Les Pereleman. (Read the full story as first reported by Elisabeth Leamy of ABC's Good Morning America here.)
In other testing news, it is not just students who are being graded. Increasingly, teachers are being held accountable for the performance of their students. Houston, Texas is the latest city to announce that teachers' jobs will no longer rely solely on evaluations by their principals. Until this year, 99% of teachers received satisfactory performance scores based on personal reviews. However, now student test scores will play a much greater role in deciding who is hired and fired.

Breaking> Chinese Architect Wang Shu Awarded Pritzker Prize
Chinese architect Wang Shu has been named the 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize laureate, marking the first time a Chinese architect has been honored prize which brings a bronze medal and $100,000 purse. Wang Shu is known for building with traditional Chinese forms and materials, often recycling bricks and tiles to form a patchwork mosaic in his buildings, which demonstrate a distinct modern sensibility. He is professor and head of architecture at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, China and founded Amateur Architecture Studio with Lu Wenyu in 1998 where he has taken an outspoken stance against architecture that he perceives as destroying vast urban and rural landscapes across China.
Unveiled> Geenland Tower in Suzhou by SOM Chicago
SOM Chicago has won a competition to design a mixed-use tower in the new Chinese city of Suzhou. Located along a lake front, the tower includes a distinctive void carved out the upper portion of the tower, splitting the floorplates in half to better serve hotel uses. Offices will fill the lower, larger floorplates. "We've been doing these kinds of mixed-use towers since Hancock," said Ross Wimer, a partner at SOM Chicago. "Instead of tapering the tower, we've carved away a slot to bring fresh air and light into the building."
Spotlight> Beijing Design Week
Beijing Design Week
September 26–October 3
Beijing Design Week, now in its second year, aims to change the catchphrase "Made in China" to "Designed in China." The festival will bring together 30 local and international design firms for packed roster of events focusing on urban design and including Dutch artist/architect Daan Roosegaarde's experiments with LEDs (above). Design Week will take over the whole city, staging happenings everywhere from the trendy 798 art district to Tiananmen Square, whose neighboring historic district will host pop-up shops and street art installations, to the site of the China Millenium Monument, where Paul Cocksedge will unveil an installation on October 1. This year London was invited to be Beijing's "guest city," and emissaries from the London Design Festival will translate some of their most successful ideas and activities into a new context.
Quick Clicks> Cathedral Restoration, Haunted, Deserted and Isolated Cities
Restored London. Building Design reports that after 15 years, St. Paul's Cathedral in London is scaffolding-free. The £40 million project restored Christopher Wren's masterpiece to its original glory in time for the cathedral's 30oth anniversary. St. Paul's will host a photography competition and display the winning selections in the cathedral crypt to celebrate its complete renovation.
Artificial England. While China continues to be a hot spot for architectural and economic development, its many ghost towns lack permanent residents. The Infrastructurist exposes one of China's English-inspired uninhabited cities, Thames Town, built in 2006 as part of Shanghai's "One City, Nine Town" initiative at decentralization. The state-of-the-art $9 billion design draws tourists, but not residents.
Trucks, not Tanks. At the United States Conference of Mayors, local government representatives vote to reallocate federal funds directed toward the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan for the improvement of American cities. The municipal leaders assert that the conflicts' $126 billion per year budget would be better spend building urban infrastructure, employing civil servants, and supporting educational and family institutions.
Mall City. City Watch LA evaluates Rick Caruso's latest business proposition: running for public office. The billionaire developer envisions a new Los Angeles comprised of isolated communities each with its own shopping mall, a potential reality if Caruso wins the 2013 mayoral seat.
Architecture, the Final Frontier for Pirates?
Aye, those swashbucklin' pirates are at it again, matey! This time, though, they're not after gold, DVDs, or designer purses, but the identities of architects. The Guardian's Jonathan Glancey relates that Chinese firms posing as British officers of Aedas and Broadway Maylan have been pursuing bids with false information. He points out the dangers that such a development might entail for the profession and wonders if starchitects like Zaha Hadid could be the next victims.
Video: Chinese Hotel Climbs Fifteen Stories in Six Days
Would you stay in a 15-story structure built in six days? Through the magic of prefabrication, one new hotel in Changsha, China was built erector-set-style at just such a fantastic pace and recorded through time-lapse photography. The better term might be constructed in six days, however, as the building's foundation and the factory-made pieces were already finished at the beginning of this architectural ballet, but the feat proves rather amazing nonetheless.
While you might have never heard of Changsha, China, home to the new Ark Hotel, the country's 19th largest city mirrors the building's rapid growth. Changsha tripled in size between the 1940s and 1980s and today contains an estimated population of 6.6 million.
While such a quickly constructed building might seem prone to shoddy construction, the Ark Hotel is reportedly built to withstand a magnitude 9 earthquake, meaning a quake over 1,000 times more powerful than January's quake in Haiti. Call us skeptical, but we'd opt to be out of the building when disaster strikes.
Prefabrication, architecture's "oldest new idea," can have its green benefits. The Ark Hotel is thermally insulated and boasts only one percent construction waste. [ Via Gizmodo. ]

Brian's statement that "Colter and company had to have overwhelming support to even take their case to the board" isn't entirely correct. According to the NLRA, Colter and CAPA only need a 30% showing of support to get a vote on unionization. They'll need a majority to actually get the union - so Northwestern just has to make sure CAPA doesn't get the extra 21% they need. |

Mexico edges out Brazil and Chile for this year's prize among the region's central banks. The trio is not without criticism in what has been a tricky 12 months.
by Ben Miller Renewed troubles in the developed economies present fresh challenges for Latin Americas largest economies, even as they came away with praise for handling the 2008-2009 credit crisis. Managing renewed growth is tricky, especially when it is dependent on heavy stimulus measures enacted during crisis.
For the second year, LatinFinance has polled economists, analysts and other LatAm-focused experts to find out which central bank has done the best job in the last 12 months. The results are not unanimous. There are strong cases to be made for and against the three clear favorites: Brazil, Mexico and Chile.

A school governor broke truancy laws to take his child out of classes for a family trip to Spain.
Paul Lawton, 42, was caught after his daughter Emma, 13, posted holiday snaps on Facebook, enraging other pupils' parents.
Mr Lawton and his wife Emma, 33, each got £60 fixed penalties from the council but failed to pay them.
They were ordered before magistrates and fined £120 each.
Dad-of-five Mr Lawton, a farmer, said: "For all seven of us to go when we did cost £1,200. Three weeks later it would have been £6,000.
"I take the role of governor very seriously. I think I am being singled out."
George Wilson, governors' chairman at Macclesfield Academy in Cheshire, said: "We will consider what he has to say and then decide if action needs to be taken."

Agathe Von Trapp, Oldest Of 'Sound Of Music' Kids, Has Died
There's a pretty good chance you've seen the movie or the musical — or at least heard some of the Rodgers and Hammerstein songs.
So this sad news may also bring back some fond memories:
Agathe von Trapp, the oldest daughter among the seven children made famous by The Sound of Music, has died. She was 97 and had retired from teaching in the kindergarten program at Sacred Heart Catholic parish in Glyndon, Md.
If you're not familiar with the von Trapp family's story, it's told on the website of the lodge in Stowe, Vt., that they opened after World War II. According to that site, one of the seven von Trapp children survives — Maria F. von Trapp, who was born in 1914 — as do two half-sisters and a half-brother.
The 1965 movie focuses on Maria von Trapp, Agathe's stepmother (not to be confused with her surviving sister), and the family's flight from Nazi-occupied Austria.
Julie Andrews played Maria and this clip from Do-Re-Mi will stick in your head (if the song isn't already there). Enjoy:
Update at 3:55 p.m. ET: It's worth noting that this has been a bittersweet week for fans of several types of music. Jazz pianist and former NPR host Billy Taylor, 89, died Tuesday night. And Teena Marie, the "Ivory Queen of Soul" died over the weekend. She was 54.
NPR.org earlier this week looked back at "Musicians We Lost In 2010."

In "Storage Wars: Texas," A&E's top-rated non-fiction franchise heads to the Lone Star state to follow teams of bidders on their quest for auction gold.
The series returns for a second season with brand-new buys, all-new finds, and a few new faces. In season two, "The Rangers" Ricky and Bubba aim to expand their franchise across the great state of Texas. New buyer Jenny Grumbles enters the fray using her southern wits to revive old furniture for massive payouts. Vic "The Outsider" tries to destroy his competition by turning Bubba against Ricky. And Dr. Moe Prigoff looks to his old friend Mary Padian to save him from his newfound hoarding problem. Mannequins to motorcycles, swords to solar panels - these buyers are takin' care of bid-ness.
"Storage Wars: Texas" is produced by Original Productions, a FremantleMedia Company for A&E Network. Executive producers are Thom Beers and Philip D. Segal. Jeff Conroy is co-executive producer and Steve Robillard is series producer. A&E executive producers are David McKillop, Elaine Frontain Bryant and Fred Grinstein.
When storage units are abandoned in the great state of Texas, the treasures within are put up for auction." That opening narration from Storage Wars Texas sets up the real drama of the show: the battle between a colorful cast of characters to get the greatest return on their investment as they buy the contents of these abandoned storage units. The catch? They only get 5 minutes to inspect the contents and can only see what's visible from the opened storage unit door; they can't sort through it. This unpredictability - combined with the personalities - make for some of the greatest nail biting moments on TV!
Premiere Date : Dec 3, 2013
The auction action returns to Fort Worth, and the home of Hell's Half Acre once again inspires hot blood and sharp tongues. Bubba, going solo, reckons with both East Texas Kenny and Cowboy Matt to win prize finds, though Mary could be the one reeling in the big catch. As Bubba goes James Bond with a hidden camera, and Matt ends up bloodied, the buyers discover that the most belligerent fighter often ends up the biggest loser.

Physical and Occupational Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis
In this article
Rheumatoid arthritis treatment often includes physical therapy and/or occupational therapy.
Healthy joints are the "hinges" that let us move around and allow us to function every day. Many of us take that for granted. But if your joints are affected by rheumatoid arthritis, these simple movements aren't always automatic or easy.
The Link Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lymphoma
In the spring of 2006, Dora Burke finished her first triathlon with competitive results. When her ankle started hurting soon afterward, she chalked it up to the tough race. But in little over a month, this normally healthy, active mom in her 30s could barely move. Without warning, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) had rapidly and fiercely attacked nearly every joint in her body. "The pain went from one body part, to four body parts," Burke says. "Then pretty immediately it went to the point where I couldn't...
Read the The Link Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Lymphoma article > >
It's possible for joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis to be too painful and damaged to use fully. Your treatment team will include a rheumatologist and others.
- Physical therapists focus on helping you be able to keep moving around.
- Occupational therapists help you keep doing things you are used to doing every day.
The goals and treatments used by physical therapists and occupational therapists sometimes overlap, but there are some general differences.
Physical Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Physical therapy has one simple goal: keeping you moving. It will stimulate muscles, bones, and joints through exercise or other methods. The result is more strength, tone, and overall fitness.
Physical therapists help you with joint function, muscle strength, and fitness level. They understand the mechanics of bones, joints, and muscles working together, the problems that can occur, and what to do about them.
Working with a physical therapist is a good idea at any stage or severity of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Early in the course of rheumatoid arthritis, your physical therapist can assess and document where you are in terms of function, strength, and fitness. Your exercise plan will be designed to maximize your chances of avoiding joint problems as the disease progresses.
- In moderate or advanced rheumatoid arthritis, a physical therapist can help you keep or increase the strength and flexibility you have.
Together, you and your physical therapist will create a road map of improvement for each muscle/joint group, and for your overall fitness. This will become part of the treatment plan for your rheumatoid arthritis. There are a number of strategies your physical therapist can use to reach your treatment goals.
- Exercise. This is the cornerstone of any physical therapy plan. Together with you and your doctor, your physical therapist will design an exercise plan that is targeted to your ability and fitness level. A good plan will include stretching/flexibility exercises; strength exercises, and conditioning (or aerobic) exercise.
- Heat/Ice. Treating inflamed or painful joints with heat or ice packs helps some people feel better.
- Massage. In some patients with chronic pain, therapeutic massage reduces symptoms.
- Motivation and encouragement. While "low-tech," it's hard to overestimate the value of having someone in your corner cheering you on-and pushing you to do better.

Democrats today trotted out a new tactic for raising campaign cash: shame.
Read more...
One of the ways you can tell that Obama's magic is gone is the lack of insane, iconographic art surrounding his campaign this time. In 2008 Obama art was beyond parody. There was an entire meme about The One riding on unicorns.
With just over 50 days until the presidential election, Joe Biden, the gaffe-prone vice president, is taking the weekend off. "The Vice President will be in Wilmington, Delaware," his public calendar reads. "There are no public events scheduled."
The White House just announced that President Obama will speak about the events in the Middle East at 10:35 a.m. Hillary Clinton will be by the president's side:
In the morning, the President will deliver a statement in the Rose Garden. Secretary of State Clinton will also attend. This statement is open press.
As we wait to see the extent and duration of Barack Obama's post-convention bounce, it makes sense to do a little analytical house cleaning. In particular, a meme developed over the summer that Barack Obama was a strong favorite to win reelection, thanks to a sustained and substantial lead over his Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, particularly in the swing states.
President Obama made a campaign stop to a fire station and hand-delivered a case of beer. Via the pool report:
After President Obama's remarks this morning on the tropical storm headed toward New Orleans, a reporter asked whether it's appropriate to continue campaigning. Obama did not answer the shouted question.
But the truth is, the question would be relevant regardless of the storm. For more than three decades, incumbent presidents have resisted campaigning during the opposing party's convention--no matter what party the president was a member of.
Earlier this week, we received final fundraising totals for the month of July – and the numbers were quite a shocker. The Republican side of the campaign (a joint effort between Mitt Romney and the Republican National Committee) raised a total of $101.3 million dollars, and has $185.9 million in the bank. Meanwhile, the joint effort of President Obama and the Democratic National Committee raised $75 million and has $95.8 million in the bank.
A big-time donor to President Barack Obama is also a financial supporter of Paul Ryan. Marc Benioff, a national campaign co-chair for President Obama's reelection campaign, donated $10,000 to Ryan's political action committee earlier this summer, in June,
According to a new ebook by Glenn Thrush, President Barack Obama's top political adviser, David Axelrod, had a spat with Stephanie Cutter, deputy campaign manager for the president's reelection campaign.
"If there was a flash point, it came in March, according to three people close to the situation," writes Thrush. "Axelrod got wind that a producer at a network morning show had been asking for him to appear – only to be told by a junior staffer that Cutter, who had been conspicuously upping her TV appearances, could substitute."
President Obama's campaign manager, Jim Messina, sent an email this morning to Mitt Romney's campaign manager, Matt Rhoades, asking for Romney to release his tax returns. In an email back to Messina, Rhoades writes, "If Governor Romney's tax returns are the core message of your campaign, there will be ample time for President Obama to discuss them over the next 81 days."
Mitt Romney will hit President Obama for high-level national security leaks coming from the White House, according to excerpts of the speech the Republican presidential candidate will deliver later today at the VFW in Reno, Nevada. Romney will call the leaks "contemptible" and a betrayal of "our national interest."
It was earlier noted that the Obama campaign paid a whopping $2.6 million on polling in the month of June alone. It turns out, the president's reelection campaign has spent $15 million on polling--this election cycle alone.
According to disclosure forms with the Federal Election Commission, President Obama's reelection team appears to have paid $92,751.50 to rent the Ohio State University's Jerome Schottenstein Center, the site of the campaign's much touted kick-off event in May.
The disclosure appears on records of the campaign's June spending, though the event took place May 5. And of course does not include other costs associated with the event; only the cost of renting the arena.
Is the left turning against the reelection campaign of Democratic President Barack Obama? That's the impression one gets from a recent article in the left-leaning Huffington Post.

Just read this post and it made my day .. What's Causing Hurricane Sandy? Let's Ask Some Christians Who Know ...
accordingly Sandy is caused by same sex marriages and israel
the best part was the tweet of @rationalists "A pastor on East Coast blames gays for the hurricane. While he's wet, tell him San Francisco is dry and celebrating the World Series" :))
Considering the damage to the Jersey Shore, it's obviously all Snooki's fault.
But I was wondering, if the President pulls out a win and it stems from his actions in the aftermath of the hurricane and if God sent the hurricane, then does that mean he wants the President to be reelected? I'm guessing that's why we won't hear any proclamations about "God's Will" concerning the storm.
God's laughing his ass off.
"I told you I would not again destroy the earth with water. If you believe that, go see some of my people; they'll sell you some more of my prose."
Butterfly effect?
So how many 'hot man actions-n' does it take to generate a class 1 storm. Is it related by a log function? So int(log(n)) = (storm class). Since the last storm was about class 2, seems that a class >=5 would have striped off the mountain sides of trees and buildings, and removed all signs of human habitation for thousands of square miles, including churches. As the number of gay deaths increase with the class of the storm, it would seem to me that all of the US could be reduced to rubble, about the time global warming becomes a real issue! If anyone is interested it might be a fun modeling problem...;p).
Does anyone see the overwheming exageration of the theist world view? Duh!

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Open Post- Game 3 Chicago vs. Boston

One team is going up 2-1 in the series after tonight's game.
Will it be Boston with the home-ice advantage or Chicago playing the perfect road game?
If things go as they have the last two games, expect the results around midnight or maybe even a little later.
Puck drops just after 8:00pm ET and is on NBCSN, CBC and RDS.
added 8:24pm,
Hossa took the pre-game skate, but not in the lineup tonight. Reports say he may have taken a puck in the warmup.

Great opening by the CBC tonite. Neil Young is the coolest guy in the world!
