10 Best U.S. Bike Cities of 2011
3. Fort Collins, Colo.
Number of bicycle commuters: 7,776
Bicycle commuters' share of overall population: 9.9%
Fort Collins doesn't just encourage a cycling culture, it jumps right into it with both pedals.
The home of the Colorado State University has more than 280 miles of bike lanes and no problem lending bikes to visitors who forgot theirs at home. The city loans out bikes through its Fort Collins Bicycle Library for a refundable down payment and sends away students, residents and visitors with self-guided bike tours including rides past New Belgium, Odell Brewing and other brewing facilities as well as by some of the town's historic sites.
It also has no problems handing out maps of downtown that encourage riders to use reliable alleyways and lightly traveled streets instead of high-traffic thoroughfares such as College Avenue and Jefferson Street. Those same also mark off the "dismount zone" where cyclists will be issued a $50 ticket if they're caught riding on the sidewalks.
One in four Fort Collins residents attends Colorado State, but the city's sprawling bicycle events calendar saves much of its best offerings for summer break. Bike shows, bike and jazz festivals, endurance races, moonlight rides, barbecue biking events and a weekend Fort Collins Cycling Festival in August with concerts, food and races on a big screen downtown fill the slate until well after labor day. This all just supplements the dozens of regularly scheduled rides hosted by area bike groups seven days a week during the summer. New Belgium Brewery completes the cyclist's paradise by hosting the Urban Assault Ride bicycle scavenger hunt throughout the city in July, a bike-in cinema on the brewery's front lawn for six weeks from August through September and its annual Tour De Fat bicycle race and festival on Labor Day weekend. That bicycle on the label of the brewery's Fat Tire beer isn't just for show.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Damascus Car Blasts Death Toll Climbs to 54
At least 54 people died on Wednesday and many more were injured when two bombs exploded in the south-east of the Syrian capital, Damascus, according to UK-based Syrian activists.
The death toll mounted as the day wore on, with the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights initially giving tallies of 20, and then 29 and 38.
Activists and locals have reported that most of the casualties were killed when a suicide bomber exploded the second car.
The blasts come the day after British-based Syrian activists said government fighter planes had killed "tens of people" when they bombed an olive factory in the north-west of the country.

, find the post where I "felt 3 rookies (or Taffe) would make the team." I never made that claim, so you've got to be completely out of whack with reality to honestly believe that I did.
I did say this, however:
Tell me... besides the Dominic Moore signing, who was the last forward to make the team?
, learn to follow along with the arguments you're participating in. For the last time, the only concept that I was trying to illuminate during our discussion was the fact that there were
more than one
forward spots available, in conjunction to what Sabrefan was saying and in contention with this:
Really, there were two permanent spots open. One went to Matthias, the other to Moore. THAT'S ALL THIS WAS ABOUT.
It just so happened that our argument morphed into the definition of "13th forward" and what qualifies as a 13th forward and whether or not rookies are suited for the "13th forward role," whatever that is and what Joe Thornton's draft projections were. Ugh. For the 50 millionth time, you were wrong about "there is one permanent spot open...two until Nasty returns." Are we not carrying 13 forwards right now, one being Matthias and one being the injured Tarnaksy? Clearly, the addition of Moore changes things in the future, so Matthias may or may not be sent down once Tarnasky heals up (thought I doubt it).
, like I said before, you're just being an argumentative little so-and-so that gets off from bickering over semantic definitions of concepts that you're far too obtuse to understand in depth.
Im argumentative? This whole thing began with Sabresfan claiming that 3 of the 4 (Matthias, Repik, Duco, and Taffe) would make the team. I said that wouldn't happen because there was only one spot up for grabs (meaning in our permanent rotation which you and I fought over for a few pages but that is what I meant whether you like my choice of words or not). Nasty went down which made there be 2 spots open. You are right Matthias got one and Moore takes the other. So I still contend that there was only one spot open on this team...it became two once Nasty went down. Had Nasty not went down I would bet we either would not have signed Moore, or Matthias would be starting the year in the AHL. Sure we COULD carry another active forward...but we aren't (Nasty is injured), and I claimed all along that we wouldn't carry a kid in the extra spot. Not much has changed. You jumped down my throat about it and we ended up arguing the semantics of the 13th forward among other things.
So how am I argumentative when you started with me again? Just asking

Getting to Grips with Your Former Argentinian Room Mate
The lobby
Yesterday we introduced you to the Htl 9 de Julio, your former Room Mate in Buenos Aires that�s now in soft opening as an independent hotel. It offers your standard funky Room Mate design, a decent location� and impossibly low rates � just $38 is all we paid for both our stays this month. But what do you get for your $38?

Inside an Even-Numbered EVEN Hotel Room
Have you ever gone to the gym and seen those guys with biceps bulging like just-fed anacondas, chests broad enough to land a small plane � and legs as thin as angel hair spaghetti?
In fitness, as with everything, it�s all about the details. Miss a spot, and �sexy� becomes �silly.� Fast. Luckily, Intercontinental Hotel Group�s newly launched brand, EVEN Hotels, sweats the small stuff.
It could have coasted on its concept: A line of properties that is designed entirely around wellness, from in-room mini-gyms to an onsite restaurant, Cork & Kale, that offers healthy meals worlds apart from the calorie-loaded grub you�ll find at most lobby bars. (The cocktails even use organic spirits.)
It�s sort of shocking that no one thought to do this already, and there�s assuredly a huge market out there for a fitness-focused hotel chain. I mean, somebody�s watching �Dr. Oz.� EVEN could have phoned it in. Thankfully for us, they worked hard to get it done right.

Hotel Skeppsholmen Stockholm Is a Country Hotel Hiding in the City
Looking at the above photograph of the front yard and entrance to Hotel Skeppsholmen, you�d be forgiven to think it�s somewhere in the scenic Scandinavian countryside rather than a 20-minute walk from Stockholm�s Old Town.
Its split personality is a result of its setting on the tiny island from which the hotel takes its name, which is almost entirely parkland, and the 18th century buildings that have been converted into the hotel. We spent an overnight at Skeppsholmen on a short visit to the Swedish capital � read on to see what we found.
Check-In: we arrived at the hotel by taxi, having taken the Arlanda Express from the airport to the city�s central station. Big mistake: it cost us $35 for the short journey, and bus no65 does the same journey for a few dollars. Given that a return on Arlanda Express alone is $65, we made sure to save the cab fare on the way back. Check-in was quick and easy, and we were on our way to our room in a few minutes.

Sleeping and Socializing in Style at The Renaissance Hotel in Santiago
When we chatted about the opening Renaissance Santiago in Chile this past April, we were excited by the hotel's "sleek and luxe look" and by the design influence of Santiago-based MC Studio, whose principals Raimundo Morales and Atilio Cosmelli worked on the fashionable W Santiago while working at Tony Chi.
The other week, we checked out the Renaissance in person and while the reality didn't include everything we saw in the renderings, the hotel lived up to its promise of bringing meaningful design into both the guest rooms and the social spaces.
If this is the new direction for the Renaissance brand, and from what we've heard from those in the know, it is, then we might just be staying at Renaissance more often.
Below are a few snapshots from around the hotel and inside the guest rooms. Keep reading for our quick list of what we liked and didn't like!

Hong Kong has an impressive hotel game, and our expectations were high given what Indigo pulled off further north in Shanghai. Read on to find out what we thought.

Inside The 1888 Hotel, An Alternative to Sydney's Corporate Hotel Scene
1888 Shakes Things Up With a "Cozy Industrial Vibe"
Focusing on being Instagram-worthy as it does (and handing out free nights if you have 10,000 followers or more), Sydney�s 1888 Hotel better be bringing it in the looks department. We showed you how to get the lobby (or yourself) into the frame, and are following up today with a closer look at how the rest of the hotel measures up.
1888�s Pyrmont location puts you just on the "other" side of Darling Harbour, to the west of Sydney�s CBD. A stroll across the pedestrian bridge will take you into the city�s core in 15 minutes, or you can take the scenic ferry route and sail underneath the Harbour Bridge before you dock at Circular Quay.
Getting to the hotel from the airport is easy enough: hop on the express train to the city�s Central Station and change to the monorail, get off at Convention Centre (you buy the monorail ticket on the train), enter the parking garage and take the lift up to the fourth floor, exit on the other side, and 1888 is right in front of you. The red brick building (formerly a wool-storage facility) certainly looked pretty against the backdrop of bright blue Sydney skies when we arrived.

Set Adrift on Budget Bliss at the Driftwood Lodge at Zion National Park
Serene mountain views and the rush of a Virgin River at Driftwood Lodge; a HotelChatter Review
When visiting Zion National Park, many choose to experience this majestic slice of the Great Outdoors, well, outdoors. There are three campgrounds to choose from and, during the height of the summer, reservations are typically a must. Even the "off" season can get quite crowded given the right circumstances.
If your idea of roughing it, however, is staying in a budget motel, there are many to choose from in the adjacent town of Springdale, Utah. Dubbed "The Gateway to Zion," the town's main road, which leads straight to the national park, is dotted with name-brand motel chains, independent lodges and quaint inns. Many are located one right after the other. A bit of Internet sleuthing caused us to choose the Driftwood Lodge for a two-night weekend getaway.
Arriving on a Friday evening as the sun set, the Driftwood Lodge made a postcard-worthy first impression. The lodge, actually a collection of newer and older stand-alone buildings, was aglow in the last rays of light as a majestic mountain ridge and endless blue sky towered in the background.
The main building, right on Zion Park Boulevard, serves as the lobby and check-in was effortless. Renovated in 2013, it fit within the lodge theme, however, a very sanitized version. Wood floors, brick walls, brightly colored area rugs were all present but lacked a lived-in rustic appeal. A completely nit-picky observation, we know, and nothing a few throws and some random chotskies couldn't overcome.
A cheerful representative greeted us promptly and quickly imparted the lay of the land (how to get to our room, where to find the passcode for the free WiFi and a reminder to turn in our room keys at the end of the stay or face a $5 per card fee) before sending us on our way. No bell service was offered, but none was needed. It should also be pointed out that the front desk isn't staffed round-the-clock, however, someone is always available via telephone for emergencies.

The Hotel's Response to Our Less-Than-Stellar Stay in Brisbane
Last week we shared our experience checking out Brisbane's newest hotel, the Four Points by Sheraton.
Our stay wasn't perfect. When we highlighted our minor issues, it caused quite a stir amongst our readers. We later opted to let the property know, via an email survey, what we usually expect from Starwood Hotels and other international hotel chains and why this stay fell short.
Since then, we've been in contact with the Four Points' general manager (who also saw our story on HotelChatter.) In true form of a good hotelier, he not only took the feedback on to ensure it doesn't happen again, but also explained why we experienced the hiccups. Here are the responses:

How Would You Handle a Less-Than-Stellar Hotel Stay?
Last week, Brisbane scored their first new international hotel in 16 years with the opening of Four Points by Sheraton. Because we're not ones to miss the chance to check-out a new hotel, we booked a stay and checked-in only five days after opening day.
Here's the set-up: the 32-story building is in the heart of Brisbane, overlooking the cityscape on one side and the namesake river on the other. Each of the 246 rooms offer sleek, downtown-inspired decor with a nod to utility and productivity along with simple, yet effective amenities. The entire property aims to be as sustainable as possible with energy-saving lights in the hallways and reflective glass to reflect the hot sub-tropical sun; a nice touch.
Catering to a corporate guest, the property offers a second floor bar for drinks and a marketplace-style restaurant for fueling before and after meetings. A rooftop gym is surrounded by a 180-degree outdoor terrace which is perfect for private parties and or simply for chilling out after a long day. In true Four Points form, there's also plenty of meeting space for... well, meetings.

6 Reasons Why The London Edition is All That
We were one of the first people inside the London Edition when it opened back in September (an award-winning opening, we might add) and while HotelChatter contributor JasonD got to chat with hotelier Ian Schrager as well as peep the presidential suite, we never got to properly spend the night.
Thus when this editor found herself across the pond last month and in need of a hotel room, the choice was clear. How could I not stay at an Edition Hotel, after years (three) of obsessively following the brand?
So, using a combination of American Express points and pounds, I booked a superior room. At check-in, I was then upgraded to a deluxe room (no, the hotel was not aware I was coming.) My room was located at the end of a twisty, maze-like hallway that had me confused a few times later on when walking back to my room. But once inside room 229, the Edition was everything I hoped it would be.
Lest I bore you with long, overwrought paragraphs, allow me to present 6 Reasons Why The London Edition Is All That. If the list is too much for you to get through, then just scroll through the photos. You'll get the same idea anyways.

Inside Hlemmur Square, Klaus Ortlieb's New Icelandic Outpost
Hot hotelier Klaus Ortlieb brings his magic to Iceland. A HotelChatter Review
Iceland in the winter? Sure, why not? Unlike, say East Coast U.S.A, Reykjavik can be surprisingly temperate at this time of year (high 30s to low 40s while we were there). Windy? Yes. Chilly? A bit. But the chance of weather mayhem of snowpocalypse proportions is slim. Plus, the Northern Lights are at highest activity in a decade, so now might be your best chance to spot them.
Since learning that Klaus Ortlieb had resurfaced in Reykjavik last spring, we knew we had to check out the new hostel/hotel hybrid Hlemmur Square. Funnily enough, we came across Klaus himself chatting with friends in the hotel lobby in the morning. There's an endorsement! We didn't interrupt but we sure did eavesdrop: the hostel rooms "need some work" he says, "they need a splash of color."
Check In
The FlyBus from Keflavik International Airport drops off in front of the hotel. The hotel lobby was quiet when we checked in around 5 p.m., with just a handful of guests/bar drinkers hanging around; two of which were asleep, one of which was asleep on the floor. Well, we are all a little tired after the new year, no? Our receptionist was very friendly and even walked us up to our room herself. We already were getting a very laid back vibe. "Check out time is around 11, " we were told, "but if you're later than that, it's OK". We like.

Spending Some Time With Auckland's Sofitel Viaduct Harbour
Harbor-side rooms and plush rooms at Sofitel Viaduct Harbour; a HotelChatter Review
Spending a few days in Auckland sounds like a dream, but once you start to look at hotel options, you might get a little discouraged since the city doesn't have much selection. With limited international hotel brands that we can trust, we settled on Sofitel Viaduct Harbour but didn't expect some harbor living during our visit.
After a winding trip through the sleepy streets of the city's entertainment district, we finally make it to a mid-rise building situated directly on the inner-harbour surrounded by yachts and sailboat masts. With a sleek, tiled lobby that featured a handful of reflection pools, we struggled to be anything but awed by the framed view of the private mooring docks beyond the lobby. Then after a speedy check-in process, we were off to our room.

5 Friends I am with the WookiesMobius | 06/12/2007 | See all Mobius's reviews (173)Top 100 Reviewer Top 100 DVD Reviewer Top 10 Games Reviewer Top 100 Electronics Reviewer Top 100 Gadgets Reviewer Top 100 PC Reviewer If your into collecting these sabers then the Yoda blade is worth adding to the collection. you can expect the same build quality in this blade as you would find in the others in the series. NOTE: The LightSaber is Shorter than other models, but overall its quality. worth keeping an eye out for the others in the series as play like to offer the FX LightSabers at a Redused price every now and then.It seems that other reviews of the other sabers all seem to show that they have different sounds even though its the same blade, this is probly because though the blades are the same the removable unit that does the sounds and motions are different and it seems that its luck of the draw if you get a good one. but at the end of the day its a Lightsaber with Dam good effects
5 Santa's Seen Star Wars!Masterjohn | 25/12/2007 | See all Masterjohn's reviews (1)I got this for christmas was and when you flick the switch to turn it on you turn into a jedi! This is my first lightsaber and was on the top of my wishlist. Looking at the others the yoda is best for me since the red ( darth maul and vader) Sabers seem to have a weaker glow and are a little 2 big 4 me!If you're reading this review which you are buy this lightsaber and start feeling the force! My mum was even playing with it in work when it arrived!The yoda lightsaber is easy to work and gives out a great green glow. Although its not a toy, how can you resist doing a few fancy moves with it! And if you're mum and dad are saying ' You're too old to have a lightsaber ' forgot it and put it at the top of you're wishlist.If you are looking to buy one of these please don't give it to little children! The polycarbonate blade can withstand substancial blows but its not a real lightsaber and it certainly can't slice things up like in the darth vader mcdonalds advert.I hope you found this review helpful.. ByeJedi-Master John...
5 Simply the best.ThisIsSparta | 04/01/2008 | See all ThisIsSparta's reviews (14)Top 100 Electronics Reviewer Top 100 Gadgets Reviewer I have 4 diffrent Masters FX lightsabers (Vader, Luke. Anakin & Yoda) and this is the best one.It's not that the others are bad (and they are not!) . It's just that this one is shorter and easier to handle and it has the brightest glow even during the day.If I had to pick just one this is the one.
5 Joint No 1 saber with Darth Maul!Synthman | 02/12/2007 | See all Synthman's reviews (12)Top 100 PC Reviewer Only problem is the on/off switch is a bit awkward. But this is my joint favorite so far along side Darth Maul's double saber. My kids look great with this when they can get it off me that is. It is nice to hold with no shrap bits digging in your hands when spinning (unlike Vader's and Anakins) and it is louder and brighter than the others . Excellent! I ordered two sabers Monday at 6PM and got them Wednesday morning so 5 stars for play on these products as well.
5 Vader. . . You Must Confront Vader!!Begeta619 | 26/10/2007 | See all Begeta619's reviews (2)Firstly many thanks Play.com for super fast delivery i ordered this on sunday night it arrived tuesday morning!!The saber itself is very well made it is smaller than other fx sabers (About 3-4 inches smaller in blade and handle length and about an inch or 2 in diameter) But obviously thats because Yodas small. The blade is very sturdy and glows very brightly, the sound fx are much improved, (louder than my other sabers) The handle is very easy to hold, the power switch is located in an easy accessible area which allows easy 'power up' when holding it. One of the best sabers made to date and perfect for kids due to its smaller size my 8 year old nephew loves it. In conclusion a truly great piece and a must have for any collector or fan. Thanks again play !!!

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is keen on finding long-term systemic solutions to certain common recurring complaints from investors, rather than handing out off-the-shelf case-by-case directive-based resolution of individual grievances.
Indicating this at a function, to launch the tie-up between Madras Stock Exchange (MSE) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE) here on Thursday, C.B. Bhave, Chairman, SEBI, said the changing market environment had indeed thrown up new issues. These possibly required to be looked at from a systemic angle for a solution, he added.
In this context, he pointed to three specific instances where the regulator had been receiving recurring complaints from the investors. One related to the power of attorney given by an investor to a broker. More often than not, investors singed the power of attorney without bothering to give it a thorough reading, he regretted. The regulator, Mr. Bhave said, had circulated a discussion paper on this issue. Based on the feedback, he would take the proposal to the board of the SEBI for a decision, he added. The second issue pertained to complaints related to non-refund or delayed refund of money on un-allotted shares post-public issue. This required to be looked at from a systemic point of view, he said. This also called for a lot of back-end work at the bank level on the technological front and tremendous amount of interface among multiple agencies, he said. The regulator, he said, was also looking at another area. It related to the maintenance of running accounts by investors with the brokers. Stating that SEBI had seen an increase in the number of complaints on this front, Mr. Bhave said the regulator obviously could not ask the investors not to keep running accounts with the brokers. While advising investors to take precaution before doing any such thing, he said SEBI would be looking at a systemic resolution of this issue. ``It is still at a thinking stage,'' he said.
In these contexts, he lauded the investor education initiative of the MSE. ``The stock exchanges have an important role to play,'' he added. The investor education initiative could sometime run counter to the brokers' interest, he pointed out. ``Without investors, however, we (regulator, brokers, stock exchanges and other intermediaries) have no chance of existence, `` he pointed out.
While presenting the road map for MSE, its Director, S. Vekateshwaran said the tie up with NSE would help the MSE brokers to trade on the NSE platform by issuing MSE contracts. Ten MSE-listed companies could now trade on the NSE platform. This number would go up in the coming days, he said. He also said efforts were under way at MSE to set up its own trading terminal for MSE-listed companies. This would go a long way in helping the SMEs (small and medium enterprises) raise capital from the marketplace, he added. Earlier, Ravi Narain, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of NSE, said the alliance with MSE would help to reach out to smaller regions and companies.

Sample Report
DISCUSSION: Created in c. 1657, this original etching is from the unsigned, undated edition classified by Nowell-Usticke as a State VII (of IX) impression with strong, parallel regular shading along bend to the left of the hat; regular horizontal shading across upper part of trees through window; slipt stroke on cheek still visible, hat faintly visible. Also known as "The Apothecary", our curious subject is hard at work, studying a sheet of parchment while a large text is open on the table before him. Small jars, figurines, and a skull litter his workspace, giving clues to his occupation. He is well-dressed for a 17th century Dutchman, with elaborately designed clothing and with a large traveler's hat on the bench beside him. In the background is a testament to Rembrandt's impressive skill with the burin as a highly detailed, small-scale altarpiece is open and on display; this almost serves as another vignette within this already detailed composition. ABOUT THE FRAMING: Conservation framed with archival materials to ensure lasting quality, this work is float-mounted in an Italian-style gold moulding. The intricately sculpted detail with swirled accents and carved rivets complements the etched quality of this work. Completed with white, linen-wrapped mats featuring a gold-plated name plate with a matching gold inner fillet, this work is set behind an archival Plexiglas® cover.

Out Of The Wardrobe LyricsArtist: kinksAlbum: Misfits He looks real burly but he's really hip He's six feet tall and his arms are all brown and hairy Well, he married Betty Lou back in '65 when you had to be butch to survive But lately he's been looking at his wife with mixed emotions You see, he's not a common place closet queen He shouldn't be hidden, he should be seen 'cos when he puts on that dress He looks like a princess The day he came out of the wardrobe Betty Lou got quite a surprise She didn't know whether she should get angry or not bat an eye She really couldn't call up her mother Mama would positively die Should she go or stay or should she try to get a trial separation You see, he's not a faggot as you might suppose He just feels restricted in conventional clothes 'cos when he puts on that dress, he feels like a princess He's not a dandy, he's only living out a fantasy He's not a pansy, he's only being what he wants to be Now his life is rearranged and he's grateful for the change He's out of the wardrobe and now he's got no regrets Betty Lou didn't know what to do at first But she's learning how to cope at last She's got the best of both worlds And she's really in a state of elation She says it helps their relationship She says a change is as good as a rest And their friends finally coming 'round to their way of thinking She wears the trousers and smokes the pipe And he washes up She helps him wipe 'Cos when he puts on that dress He looks like a princess He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling alright He's out of the wardrobe and he's feeling satisfied Now it's farewell to the past The secret's out at last He's out of the wardrobe and now he's got no regrets

Jim Cramer's Stop Trading: GW Pharmaceuticals Is for Real
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- "I think this is becoming a non-speculative stock," TheStreet's Jim Cramer, co-manager of the Action Alerts PLUS portfolio, said of GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH) on CNBC's "Cramer's Stop Trading" segment.
The company has released its preliminary data for Epidiolex, its cannabinoid treatment aimed at treatment-resistant epilepsy in children.
Cramer argued that the U.S. doesn't seem to understand the importance of medical marijuana, as it would be illegal for companies to create the non-laced marijuana treatment that GW Pharmaceuticals, a British-based company, has.
After 12 weeks, the drug showed at least a 50% reduction in seizures for 48% of the patients, with 15% of patients reportedly being seizure-free.
Cramer said he believes the Food and Drug Administration will approve this treatment, as it is proving helpful to these children. He concluded that GW Pharmaceuticals is a "real company, doing real things."-- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich. Follow @BretKenwell 5 Reasons So Many Seniors Fall Victim to I.D.

Everyday Calculus: Discovering the Hidden Math All Around Usby Oscar E Fernandez
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Calculus. For some of us, the word conjures up memories of ten-pound textbooks and visions of tedious abstract equations. And yet, in reality, calculus is fun, accessible, and surrounds us everywhere we go. In Everyday Calculus, Oscar Fernandez shows us how to see the math in our coffee, on the highway, and even in the night sky.
Fernandez uses our everyday experiences to skillfully reveal the hidden calculus behind a typical days events. He guides us through how math naturally emerges from simple observations—how hot coffee cools down, for example—and in discussions of over fifty familiar events and activities. Fernandez demonstrates that calculus can be used to explore practically any aspect of our lives, including the most effective number of hours to sleep and the fastest route to get to work. He also shows that calculus can be both useful—determining which seat at the theater leads to the best viewing experience, for instance—and fascinating—exploring topics such as time travel and the age of the universe. Throughout, Fernandez presents straightforward concepts, and no prior mathematical knowledge is required. For advanced math fans, the mathematical derivations are included in the appendixes. Whether youre new to mathematics or already a curious math enthusiast, Everyday Calculus invites you to spend a day discovering the calculus all around you. The book will convince even die-hard skeptics to view this area of math in a whole new way. Synopsis:"Everyday Calculus tracks a day in the life of mathematician Oscar Fernandez, from his morning cup of joe to his night out at the theater, and lets us see the world the way he does: written in equations, the language of nature. He gently guides the reader through the basics of derivatives and integrals, revealing the hidden connections lurking just beneath the surface of our daily lives."--Jennifer Ouellette, author of The Calculus Diaries
"Calculus has played an essential role in the development of engineering, medicine, physics, chemistry, geology, statistics, and a variety of other areas. But where is it in our everyday lives? In this beautiful book, Oscar Fernandez answers that question by noting all of the ways that calculus appears in the world around us, from the coffee cooling on the counter to the rain drops hitting an umbrella. You will never look at daily life in quite the same way again."--Colin Adams, coauthor of How to Ace Calculus "With a clear style and refreshing approach, this book shows how elementary calculus is relevant to practical day-to-day events familiar to us all."--John Adam, author of X and the City: Modeling Aspects of Urban Life "A fun and delightful read."--Thomas Garrity, Williams College Synopsis:"With a clear style and refreshing approach, this book shows how elementary calculus is relevant to practical day-to-day events familiar to us all."--John Adam, author of X and the City: Modeling Aspects of Urban Life
"A fun and delightful read."--Thomas Garrity, Williams College About the AuthorOscar E. Fernandez is assistant professor of mathematics at Wellesley College.

"I Had the unfortunate displeasure of dealing with Reed, a representative of this company.
I will have to say that I have dealt with many" individuals in my life time but this lady takes the cake!
She is probably one of the rudest, unprofessional, inconsiderate individuals I have ever dealt with.
I was NEVER paid or even THANKED for anything and she was demanding and rude.
I will NEVER deal with these individuals EVER AGAIN!
I do NOT recommend ANYONE do business with them!
I realize that they even lack a valid website and they are NOT BBB Accredited. I checked.
I am out over 400 dollars and they even tried to steal one of my designs. Lucky for me I COPYRIGHT EVERYTHING I design!
"Every project I've used her for has been a great experience. She's thorough, and creative beyond any of my expectations. She's an AWESOME asset to have around. Love working with her.

Graphic Designing reviews in Greensboro
It went well. Georgia is very prompt in her email responses. She was very accommodating to all my editing. When my poster arrived by UPS the package had been damaged and the poster has a crease in it. Georgia had a new one to me in 1 day. When my fliers got held up due to bad weather up North, Georgia had a different company reprint the fliers an I had them in a couple of days.
So it's not just that she did a good job designing the material, she reacted swiftly to correct a problem that was not her fault.
Georgia's services cost more than another printer I used in the past, but the graphic design was at the next level for me and the service excellent.

I think APD was an absolute amazing company. The owner and the marketing director both came to my business and took care of business. They sold me from the get go! Everything they had to say just made sense. Not to mention the fact that if I did not at least double my profits in 3 months, they would fully refund me.....You cannot beat that.

From my first contact with she was extremely helpful and answered all my questions and sent designs in my color request very quickly. When I placed my order she communicated that she had delivered them for shipping and followed the tracking of them till they were in my hands. The labels are just what we wanted, true to color, easy to apply and I would recommend her site to anyone! Thank you for such a good ordering experience!"
I never know who to trust in this business. When I reached out, responded right away, scheduled a time to work on the set up and within just a few short days had several campaigns up and running. We were told it could take a while
to see results, but we were found online immediately and we are already getting calls. Initially, we tried to set the Adwords up by ourselves, but that didn't out so well. Hiring was a wise business decision on my part.

Michigan DUI Laws
Michigan, like many other states, provides strict penalties to drivers who operate a vehicle under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The state continues to refine its drunk driving laws, with two new bills being introduced in 2010. The new bills pertain to the use of ignition interlock devices, the establishment of a new sobriety court and changes in rules regarding restricted licenses.

DUI Laws for Michigan
Drunk driving legislation in Michigan has made it illegal for drivers to operate a motor vehicle while having a .08 or higher percentage of blood alcohol concentration (BAC). Michigan's drunken driving laws include the OWI (operating while intoxicated), which is similar to a DUI in many other states, and the OWVI, or operating while visibly impaired law. Drivers may be convicted of an OWVI if their driving ability showed visual evidence of impairment, regardless of whether their blood alcohol was above the legal limit.
Michigan Implied Consent Law
Drivers in Michigan are held to the implied consent law. This means drivers have implicitly agreed to allow a peace officer to test them for the presence of alcohol or drugs. The test may be administered as a breath, urine or blood test, and refusal to submit to testing will cause a one-year license suspension and the addition of six points to the individual's driving record.
Michigan's DUI Penalties
In the state of Michigan, a first offender can expect to receive jail time up to a maximum of 93 days, and a license suspension for up to 180 days. First offenders will receive eligibility for a restricted license once they have had a suspended license for 30 days. Drivers will receive six points on their driving record, along with a fine ranging from $100-$500. First offenders must also pay a $1,000 fine for two years, as a driver responsibility fee. Depending on an individual's situation, a maximum of 360 hours of community service may be assigned, along with the possibility of an ignition interlock device. This device will need to be installed in an individual's vehicle once he regains the use of his license. A judge may also choose to immobilize a driver's vehicle depending on the specifics of his arrest and court case.
Compare DUI Car Insurance Rates
Penalties and fines increase with each subsequent drunk driving conviction, with jail time ranging from five days up to one year. For second and third offenders, the license suspension increases to a minimum of 12 months. The state will confiscate an individual's license plates, and immobilize his vehicle for at least 3 to 6 months. Fines will range from $200-$1,000 and the driver responsibility fee of $1,000 will need to be paid for two years. Additionally, community service may be required for 2 to 6 months.
Michigan DUI Accident Statistics
The National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration (NHTSA) tracks driving accidents and fatalities for every state in the nation. Based on statistics from 2005 to 2009, Michigan has been able to maintain its drunk driving fatalities slightly lower than the national average. Additionally, the fatality rate has been dropping, with 327 fatalities in 2005, down to 246 fatalities in 2009. These statistics refer to crash fatalities involving at least one person with a blood alcohol content at or above the .08 legal limit. The NHTSA also looks at the same numbers as a proportion of the number of fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT). This enables Michigan's information to be standardized against other states, regardless of differences in population. Based on this calculation method, Michigan had .31 alcohol related fatalities per 100 million VMT in 2005, and that number has dropped in 2009 to .25 fatalities per 100 million VMT. The average for the United States has been dropping as well over the years, with comparable numbers of .45 fatalities nationwide per 100 million VMT in 2005, down to .37 fatalities per 100 million VMT in 2009.
SR-22 Insurance
Michigan generally requires drivers convicted of an OWI to carry SR-22 auto insurance for a period of three years. Given the details of a specific situation though, SR-22 insurance may be required for a longer or possibly shorter time. Some factors that could affect the amount of time a driver needs to carry SR-22 insurance are the driver's motor vehicle history, other crimes or penalties the driver might be charged with concurrently, and whether the driver is a first or subsequent offender.
How a DUI Affects Car Insurance
When a driver in Michigan has been convicted of an OWI, his insurance costs will be affected for at least three years. When a driver is required to carry SR-22 insurance, he needs to carry at least the state required minimum liability insurance. Additionally, because of the additional points added onto the driver's record, insurance providers will place him in a higher-risk category, which automatically drives up insurance premiums.
Finding SR-22 Insurance in Michigan
Drivers with an OWI conviction may be canceled by their current insurance company and need to find a new policy. Many quality insurance companies are licensed to do business in Michigan, and several of them specialize in providing insurance for high-risk individuals. Auto insurance companies such as GEICO, Progressive Insurance and The General Car Insurance are good companies to start with, and each offers a free policy quote tool on its website for consumers. Shopping around is the best way for consumers to find low rates on auto insurance for two reasons. First, insurance companies are competitive and many work very hard to get a customer's business. Second, each insurance company uses its own internal formulas to evaluate the different factors affecting each driver's risk and insurance premiums, and insurance quotes may vary widely from one insurance company to the next.

Possible Celiac?
07 November 2007 - 03:21 PM
I am trying to figure out what is wrong with me and my son and I suspect we are celiac. My symptoms are. On a regular diet where I eat just like everyone else does, (not dieting) after lunch I get extreme abdominal pain. Pain that doesnt go away with passing gas or going #2. I try to walk it off but the only way I can get it to go away is by lieing down till it goes away and it will continue until I do that. Its wierd because it happens right after lunch everytime I stop dieting and watching what I eat and its not fair! Seriously, I dont want to diet for the rest of my life eating apples etc! Even if I eat those microwave smart ones I get the seizing of my intestines attack. I know that I have to pretty much stay away from vegetables. I cant eat brocolli, gum with fake sweetener....etc because those start me on the cycle of pain. I had a partial bowel obstruction and I was soo miserable it was horrible and It all starts when I start eating like a normal person would. The abdominal pain and immediate seizing of my intestines and bloating are my symptoms oh and CONSTANT gas and not just regular kind, the kind that will clear a room and thats embarrasing!!! I dont seem to have any others except that i have dark circles under my eyes..and still have acne and Im 28! My mom says they I have always been a sick kid (person) that I was always complaining about my stomach when I was little just like my son is doing now and I looked like an allergy kid just like him so that�s why I want to find out, he complains about his stomach everyday.. says milk did it to him but I quit giving him milk!! When we were trick or treating downtown he got white and weak looking, almost green!! He needed to sit down! Anyhow, That�s why I was thinking celiac. His stomach is so sensitive in the morning he will dry heave sometimes for no reason. I used to be that way and I remember that...now i just have the worst gas, gas pains, abdominal pain oh and I forgot the MUCOUS!!! Where did this mucous come from in my stool and its orangish red. Ive also had blood when wiping but I dont know what to do...I always think well those are just internal hemmoroids and Im so embarrased to talk to the doctor about my butt!!! Ive already had a fistulotomy and let me tell you, thats embarrassing. I feel stupid talking to doctors.. I went for my bowel obstruction and he did a check for gall bladder and he said that I did not have stones but I had alot of gas!!!! Well darn I know that!. I really hope someone else can help me, maybe someone else has had these symptoms. Were going to an allergist next week and Im getting tested for celiac... well Im going to tell him thats what I want to get tested for. Im 28. My son is 3. my 1 year old daughter seems fine. Thanks agaiN!

Le Week-end
From the critics
Community Activity
Add a CommentI was hoping for something like the 'Before Sunrise' series, except with an aging couple. I was disappointed. The story is shallow, and the two main characters are totally unlikeable. Acting was OK but the talent was wasted. It is one of those over-rated films. The scenery of Paris simply could not make up for the time wasted viewing it.
watch it for the dance scene.
Unpredictable little tale about a couple who embody the concept that every marriage is a creature of its own making. I enjoyed some bits and cringed at others. I also marvel at Jeff Goldblum - he's so entertaining, yet always seems to play the same character -himself.
If you like mature man-woman relationship films, this one is for you, far superior than Woody Allen's. The story was serious yet fun ... the poor husband remained hopelessly in love and desperately tried to change the mind of a ready-to-roam wife while vacationing in the city of love.
Don't let the Paris location fool you; this is not a story of rediscovered love.
Instead, it's a sour belch of a story about two whiny, nasty. self-absorbed Boomers.
Good acting, but in the service of a script that has made the characters very inconsistent. No real point to it all.
I'll pass.
Thank you to all these reviewers for the warnings.
The previews looked deceptively promising !
You've saved me 93 minutes of my life !!
I admire Jim Broadbent and always look forward to seeing films he's in, but this one was a disappointment. I think the problem is that the filmmakers tried to make a romantic comedy for boomers, one that has dramatic overtones and depth. The result is a movie about an unhealthy but enduring relationship. It's a bit of a muddle, but the performances are good.
a movie about growing old ungracefully . The elderly might just find this unredeeming towards their sunset years but I guess this usually happens for those whose expectation about life is high armed with wealth and education and totally unsatisfied with their status and basically discontented. If you're old, don't watch it. If you're young, then you'll understand why the olds are grumpy and hard for you to comprehend - See more at: http://burnaby.bibliocommons.com/item/show/880359002#sthash.P3gvMgYy.dpuf

Expression of P2X4 and P2X6 receptor subunits in the gastrointestinal tract of the rat was studied with double-labeling fluorescence immunohistochemistry. The results showed that P2X6 receptors were expressed widely in the submucosal and myenteric plexuses. In the myenteric plexus, P2X6 receptors were expressed mainly in large size neurons which resembled Dogiel type II neurons. These P2X6 receptor-immunoreactive (ir) neurons also expressed calbindin 28K, calretinin and neuronal nuclei (NeuN), proteins that are markers of intrinsic sensory neurons. In the submucosal plexus, all the calbindin 28K, calretinin and NeuN-ir cells were immunoreactive for P2X6 receptors. P2X6 receptors do not form homomultimers, but rather heteromultimers with either P2X2 or P2X4 receptors. P2X4 receptors were not expressed in neurons, but were expressed in macrophages of the rat gastrointestinal tract. These data indicate that P2X6 receptors are mainly expressed on intrinsic sensory neurons and that ATP, via P2X6 receptors probably in heteromeric combination with P2X2 receptors, may be involved in regulating the physiological functions of these neurons.
