Located an hour north of Sydney in the Hunter Valley wine country region, The Hangar is home to Air Action, an aviation museum with a collection of vintage fighter planes to admire and even take rides in. The facility is primarily an airplane hangar and museum, but also serves as an event space for private functions. Oriented so the bay doors open up to the north, the hangar takes advantage of passive solar design. Using the cantilevered roof for shade projection, the sides feature curved windows to pull in daylight. The ends of the building also feature administration 'pods' that serve as office space and viewing decks. The glass pod to the west allows visitors to get a good view of airplanes taking off and landing on the adjacent air strip.
The building's profile is reminiscent of an airplane wing and is a highly efficient single skinned structure. Constructed from self-supporting Aramax deep corrugated steel sheeting, the roof curves from the ground around the back and up and over the top before cantilevering out over the flight deck. Only four trusses are used to support the roof, which allows for the 12 meter awning and a 30 meter sliding door opening. This engineered support system allows for a clear and uninterrupted interior space, but also minimizes material use. In fact, the structural system reduced net steel tonnage by 30% compared to other systems to get a similar effect. The Hangar was recently awarded the Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture at the 2011 National Architecture Awards.

BiographyDr. Ramulu grew up in suburban Chicago, and became interested in the eye during medical school, during which time he studied the genes and proteins of the eye with Dr. Jeremy Nathans. After pursuing a residency in ophthalmology and fellowship training in glaucoma, he joined the Wilmer glaucoma faculty in 2006, where he specializes in caring for both routine and complex glaucomas, including glaucomas requiring repeat operations, glaucoma occurring in the context of corneal or retinal disease and glaucoma occurring in newborns and young children.
Dr. Ramulu's research focuses primarily on how glaucoma affects the individual. Specifically, he has studied the types of difficulties that glaucoma patients experience with regards to reading, walking, falling, driving and traveling outside the home. His long-term interests are to understand when and how glaucoma should be treated based on a more complete understanding of how patients are affected by their disease. Additionally, his work is geared toward developing rehabilitative strategies for individuals with severe vision loss from glaucoma and in developing recommendations to increase the safety and quality of life of all individuals with glaucoma.

American Masters
Margaret Mitchell: American RebelSeries Website »
Episode Guide »
No ordinary writer and no ordinary woman -- "Gone with the Wind" created two of the world's greatest lovers, Scarlett and Rhett, won a Pulitzer Prize in 1937 and has sold more than 30 million copies. Born into Atlanta's upper crust in 1900, Margaret Mitchell challenged stifling social restrictions at every turn. A charismatic force to be reckoned with, she had a great sense of humor, was one of Georgia's first newspaper women and was extremely generous with the money she made from "Gone with the Wind." She struggled with the changing role of women and the liberation of African Americans but also suffered from lifelong bouts of depression, until a tragic accident lead to her death in 1949. This film examines the amazing endurance of "Gone with the Wind" and reveals the seminal events of Mitchell's life through dramatic re-enactments based on her letters, as scenes from the movie weave together her life and her work.

1886 was an era of innovation in London when Mr. Whittard opened his original shop. The first electric lights glowed in windows; the Underground was still being built and ran on steam. Inspired by the changes around him, Mr. Whittard invented this strong but smooth tea. He blended Assam, a new malty tea from India, with aromatic Keemun to produce a taste of the times.

Donald MacInnes: So what would you prefer - £108m or some fish and chips?
Donald MacInnes
Donald MacInnes writes Tales from the Water Cooler, which can be found every Saturday on page 2 of i. And, although a financial near-imbecile, he writes a weekly column in The Independent's Money section, also on Saturdays. He writes regularly on a broad range of subjects in i's Freeview section and occasionally fills in on Simon Kelner's daily column when emotionally up to it. @DonaldAMacInnes
Friday 21 March 2014
It is with a heavy heart that I take up my pen for the latest instalment in my quest to be treated as something other than a pretend financial journalist. My brow is thus currently corrugated due to the fact that the Euromillions jackpot was won last Friday by one Neil Trotter, 41, who is (was) a car mechanic from Coulsdon, south London.
Mr Trotter has been revealed as the winner of £107.9m and this makes me very distressed indeed. Obviously we all experience a little reverse schadenfreude when we hear about someone winning a wheelbarrow full of cash. But my resentment of this grease monkey's good fortune has a rather more personal slant to it. You see, that was my fortune he snaffled.
Let me explain. Last Friday at work, around 5pm, I remembered the huge Euromillions draw taking place that night. I turned to my colleague and told him that he had to remember to get a ticket for the draw before the deadline expired at 7.30pm. He was scheduled to work until 10.30pm, whereas I was clocking off at 6pm, so while I was planning to pick a ticket up on the way home, he would have to leave work, walk along the road to the newsagent, buy his ticket, walk all the way back and get to his desk before our boss noticed that he was gone.
With a few furtive glances around, he prepared to depart. "Can I get you a ticket, mate?" he hissed. "Nah," I said. "I'll get myself a ticket later. But if I win, I'll obviously give you half." Being as he is from Liverpool, and therefore in possession of a tremendously natural sense of humour, he twigged that I was being sarcastic, so he performed an offensive gesture and strode off. I didn't mind. I had a feeling I was going to win.
Tragically, something happened between then and the time I left the office that put the thought of a near-£110m lottery win completely out of my head. What was it? Simply this: my wife phoned up just before I was putting my coat on and suggested we get fish and chips for dinner.
As a result, the whole way home, all I could think about was mountains of battered cod and a hundredweight of chips. What didn't help was a curious phenomenon that happens when you ride a motorbike: you smell everything. This, of course, meant that for the whole journey home, my senses were regularly transfixed by the luscious smell from every chippy that I passed. I probably averaged about 87mph on the journey home.
Later, as I crammed more fish into my mouth, I remembered the lottery ticket. But it was too late. Then, of course, I learnt that the winner was from south London (my manor) and realised I had probably blown my best-ever chance of winning a mountain of tenners. And if that isn't an incentive to give up fried food, I don't know what is.

UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
C21 Overview
C21 is an action MMORPG set in a world populated by robots of all sorts fighting to keep a prophesied army of evil robots, named the Devil Robots, from invading the universe. Players embody members of the Neo Angel Force, a force of heroes attempting to protect the universe of Cosmic Renaissance. Robots, being the main focus, are entirely customizable, down to the paint scheme and choice of the parts, with different body types offering a different tactical advantage. This, along with the action, is the high point of C21; the customization potential is HUGE, and is sure to interest fans of mecha of all types. C21 has its downsides, however, such as its low playerbase, and the lack of things to do beyond beating robots up. Stylish and straightforward is the name of the game here.

C21 Featured Video
C21 Review
Mixing good things has always given mixed results. But when you start mixing games with MECHAS, you can count me in. Hell, any game where you can custom design your own robot, even from a limited pool, is better than none at all. However, like in any case of better-than-nothing, it implies that the actual thing often just isn't that good. In any case, C21 has a distinctive look and a reasonable motive; it takes inspiration from other games of the genre, such as CosmicBreak, and hopes to take robot fighting to the land of PvE fun. Either way, there are not many games like C21 out there, so its player base will undoubtedly be a niche. Is it worth a shot? Read on and see!
Blocky Goodness
After a short download and install time, you're in! Right away, you're offered the basics, options and tutorial. Oddly enough, there's only one available resolution to play the game in, and in full screen, 800×600 looks very awkward. Certainly not deal breaking, but annoying. The tutorial is actually two-fold, there's a simple, click-and-read tutorial, and another in-game that is far, far too long, but thankfully not necessary. It's hard to avoid the question of graphics in the case of C21. Its blocky graphics give it a retro style of its own, though they most definitely will not please everyone out there. On the upside, it's the very thing that contributes to the game's small size. The robots look fairly good, but the terrain doesn't. A notable example is the strange, square-ish red object you'll find here and there on random bits of terrain, and you'll think "Hot damn that's a land mine/volcano/stomach ulcer". Wrong, it's actually a flower. And that's not all, the areas are just generally bland; villages are small and all identical, regular grassland areas are strangely devoid of population and underground areas are confusing as hell (and have no defining feature other than their single brown texture).
Mr. Roboto
But if you can get over the ugly environments, the robots are pretty neat, and using them in battle is tons of fun. For one, you can customize them entirely. Each enemy you take out can drop parts to add, or modify on your robots, and each of these parts can be colored as you want. As an example, you could just take your basic robot, and replace their legs by tank tracks, or some sort of hovering craft. There are three body sizes available to players, small, medium and large, each being a "class" of sorts. The light one centers on fast movement, dodging and flying. The medium one is a balanced body size that can perform many functions. Finally, the large one plays the role of tank, and tends to match well with really big guns. Fighting depends mostly on your choice of weapons, but generally tends to be divided between one ranged, and one melee weapon per robot. The good news is that you don't have to have only one. You have an entire team of them, and it should, ideally, include robots of all shapes and sizes. The downside is that robots built of costlier parts are also costlier to repair; lose them too much and you'll find yourself stuck with the awkward starter frog robot. Finally, some robots have the ability to transform into a different form. One of the starter bots can even transform into some sort of eagle robot with a super-powered swooping attack.
The fighting is fast paced, and will have you dodging left and right, and even flying. Did I say flying? Absolutely, you can fly in this, and some robots can fly nearly indefinitely, which lends them an especially entertaining fighting style. Of course, for the lightly armored fliers, get hit once or twice by that heavy's laser canon and it's over. Thanks to the different body parts, different styles of play can be accommodated, and if you're not as good at dodging, you can just get into a heavy robot, and blast away. The game plays out like most other MMOs, you start out in town, grab quests of the usual do-this-then-go-there variety, and progress from town to town as you level and collect robot parts. There's also a mission system, where you're put in a waiting room, and once enough players have joined, off you are. There's just one problem; no one plays C21, almost literally. At peak time, the servers are utterly empty. This means that the PvP arenas are devoid of population as well. Fortunately, things do happen in-game to keep you busy, and Devil Robots will regularly invade zones to keep players challenged. The money store is especially awesome because it lets you buy special robots, parts, and just about anything you could want. The downside is that balance is negatively affected, but it wasn't like you were going to cross another player in the first place.
Final Verdict: Fair
This isn't the mech MMO you've been waiting for, but it can be entertaining in parts, if anything for the robot and the sharp action. However, everything that isn't about your robot and you using it to beat faces is sort of so-so. The world around you isn't much fun, and wherever you go to, it pretty much looks the same (and so do the bad guys). Unless you're simply curious, there's more likely a much better alternative out there than C21 to give you your robot fix.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Eddie the fat cat has dropped two pounds on strict diet
Like most celebrities, Eddie loves a good belly rub.
In his case, there's a lot of belly to rub because Eddie has waddled into the spotlight as this city's most famous fat cat.
The obese nine-year-old domestic, short-haired, grey-brown tabby is the star patient in a unique weight-loss experiment at Tuxedo Animal Hospital on Corydon Avenue.
He was loaned to the Tuxedo clinic last month by Quagga Stray Cat Rescue on St. Mary's Road in St. Vital as part of the Free Press Fit Pet Project, a once-a-month series on the growing epidemic of obese pets.
The clinic's mission was to see how much weight a house cat could safely lose in a controlled environment in a single month, then use the lessons it learned to help other feline clients shed pounds in a healthy manner.
Since the Free Press began chronicling Eddie's weight-loss journey in the Fit Pet Project, the tubby tabby has dropped a few pounds and gained legions of fans.
Veterinarians at the Tuxedo clinic noted Eddie the Fat Cat's journey has been featured in local TV news segments and calls have been pouring in from Canadian cat lovers interested in adopting the portly pussy.
"There have been several calls from out of province about Eddie's availability, but the shelter (Quagga) would like to keep him close by to not totally lose touch with him," says Dr. Jonas Watson, an associate vet at the clinic.
Eddie's newfound fame has even led to kind-hearted passersby dropping in just to spend a few minutes stroking the clinic's star attraction, who has a cosy home in the physiotherapy/acupuncture room.
"People come in just to visit him," Watson says, scratching Eddie's bountiful belly. "Just people who have heard of him. They'll go into the sunroom and spend time with him."
A sign on the sunroom door urges visitors to talk to the front desk if they're interested in meeting the famously fat cat. "Belly rubs are always welcomed," the sign purrs. "Meow."
On a recent weekend, an elderly man stopped by simply to see how Eddie's quest for a slimmer waistline was going. He spent several minutes petting his new feline friend. On his way out, even a hardened journalist became misty-eyed when the gentleman quietly declared: "I love you, Eddie."
The unexpected outpouring of affection has definitely touched the heart of Dr. Pat Dorval, a partner at the clinic. "I'm not completely surprised, because he's so adorable," Dorval says as Eddie puttered around. "But people coming in off the street just to visit with him is a bit of a surprise."
When we first met Eddie, he tipped the scales at a whopping 10.4 kilograms (23 pounds), while the ideal weight for a typical tabby is closer to 6.6 kg (14 lbs). By Day 4 of the experiment, he was off to a hot start, dropping 170 grams.
At the one-month mark, April 14, Eddie had lost one kilogram (just over 2 lbs), weighing in at 9.4 kg.
"It's excellent," Dr. Dorval says. "Usually the goal is about half a pound a month and we got four times that amount. That's because he had so much to lose at the start. If they have a lot of weight to lose, it'll come off fast at the beginning."
"After two weeks, he started to plateau and stop losing weight. After that went on for a week, we dropped him down from 204 calories (13/4 cans of wet cat food) to 175 calories (11/2 cans) per day. Then he started to lose weight again."
The clinic is taking great care to ensure the patient doesn't lose weight too fast, because rapid weight loss can lead to serious liver damage in cats. In smaller animals, even shedding a few pounds is a big deal. "Two pounds is like 10 per cent of Eddie's body weight," Dorval says. "It's like a 180-pound man losing 18 pounds."
Eddie's makeover involved a change in diet and increased activity. He was placed on a prescription metabolic food (Hill's Science Diet) high in soluble fibre and protein, but low in calories.
His exercise program involved prowling around the clinic and even the occasional stint on a balance board. "I think they (the staff) were working out his core," Dr. Watson quips. "I don't think he really enjoyed it, but I hate doing a plank, too."
As the experiment ended, Eddie still had a ways to go, but he's already a new cat in many ways. "He seems to like moving around more," Dorval says. "He's more active now and his coat looks much nicer, too. He's smoother."
The best news: Eddie will be staying at the clinic until a permanent adoptive home is found. If you're interested, call Quagga Stray Cat Rescue at 204-237-1958.
"Successful weight loss is achievable in a cat," Dorval says. "Some people may not realize that. It was quite simple -- we measured the amount of food he should have and stuck to it.
"Even the biggest and fattest cats can lose weight in a healthy way if you feed them the right food and right amount and you stick to it. It disproves the idea you can't get them to lose weight."

Nephrectomy (nuh-FREK-tuh-me) is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of a kidney:
A nephrectomy is most often done to treat kidney cancer or to remove a seriously damaged or diseased kidney. The surgeon may perform the procedure through a single large incision in the abdomen or side (open nephrectomy) or through a series of small incisions in the abdomen (laparoscopic nephrectomy).
In a donor nephrectomy, the surgeon removes a healthy kidney for transplant into a person who needs a functioning kidney.
A surgeon performs a nephrectomy either to remove a diseased kidney or to harvest a healthy kidney intended for an organ transplant.
Most people have two kidneys — fist-sized organs located near the back of the upper abdomen. Your kidneys:
Often, a surgeon performs nephrectomy to remove a cancerous tumor or abnormal tissue growth in a kidney. The most common kidney cancer in adults, renal cell carcinoma, begins in the cells that line the small tubes within your kidneys. Children are more likely to develop a type of kidney cancer called Wilms' tumor, probably caused by the poor development of kidney cells.
The decision about how much kidney tissue to remove depends on:
The surgeon makes a decision based on the results of imaging tests, which may include:
A partial or radical nephrectomy may be needed to remove severely damaged, scarred or nonfunctioning kidney tissue due to traumatic injury or other diseases.
A healthy person with good kidney function and a low risk of certain disorders, such as high blood pressure or diabetes, is a good candidate for donating a kidney to someone who needs a transplant. A transplant recipient who receives a kidney from a living donor has a better chance of survival than a person who receives a kidney from a deceased donor.
Long-term complications from a nephrectomy relate to potential problems of living with less than two complete, fully functioning kidneys. Although overall kidney function decreases following a nephrectomy, the remaining kidney tissue usually works well enough for a healthy life.
Problems that may occur with long-term decreased kidney function include:
Before surgery, you'll talk with your surgeon about what options are available for you. Questions you might ask include:
Plan to stay in the hospital from one to three days, depending on the type of procedure. Ask your surgeon and health care team about your probable recovery time.
Expect to receive instructions from staff regarding what to do the day before and the day of your surgery. Bring a list of all your questions, such as:
If you're planning to donate a kidney for a transplant, you'll have thorough exams to determine if you're a suitable candidate. Criteria for donating include:
You'll receive general anesthesia before surgery and be unconscious during the entire procedure. You'll likely have a urinary catheter, a tube used to drain urine from your bladder.
The nephrectomy procedure varies, depending on how the surgery is performed and how much of the kidney is removed. Variations include:
Robotic partial nephrectomy, laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and traditional open surgery yield similar long-term outcomes. However, the much smaller incisions in robotic and laparoscopic surgery usually mean you'll have less postoperative pain and blood loss and a faster return to your normal activities.
Recovery time and the length of your hospital stay depend on your overall health and the type of nephrectomy performed.
Depending in part on your ability to get out of bed and the type of procedure performed, the urinary catheter will likely be removed sometime during the first 24 to 48 hours after the surgery.
Expect to receive instructions before leaving the hospital about restrictions to your diet and activity level. In general, you'll likely be encouraged to begin light, everyday activities as soon as you are able to. You'll need to avoid strenuous activity or exercise for several weeks.
Questions that you may want to discuss with your surgeon, cancer specialist (oncologist) or other members of your health care team following your nephrectomy include:
Most people can function well with only one kidney or with one whole kidney and part of the second. You'll likely have annual checkups to monitor the following factors related to kidney function.
You'll need to take care of your remaining kidney or partial kidney. Follow these guidelines to help maintain good kidney function:

117th Boston Marathon: Local runners had their day
Tuesday, April 16, 2013
Editor's note: Staff sports writer John Doyle spoke to a number of local runners at the finish line at the 117th Boston Marathon on Monday. His report and the runners' comments reflect events that took place before the bombing incident that overshadowed the race.
Dover's Ryan Stephens, 26, was the third-place male among local racers, finishing in 2:39:32. It was his first Boston Marathon.
"It was great weather, good people cheering, and it was great," Stephens said. "I wanted to go under 2:40, so I just barely made it."
The top local female was Nottingham's Nataliya Tereshchenko, who finished in 3:07:52. The top local female from Maine was Kittery's Beth Lindquist, 46, who clocked in with a time of 3:33:06.
The top local male runner from Maine was Tim Carven of Kittery Point. Carven, 49, missed last year's race because of a stomach virus, and was happy with his 2:50:02 time in his comeback race.
"It felt great to be back," Carven said. "I'm so excited to be able to take part in an event like this."
Josh Andrews, 24, of Portsmouth finished in 2:41:37.
"The hills are famous for a reason," Andrews said. "They certainly kicked my butt. The last five miles was just complete gut. But it was a fun experience and I'll never forget it."
Former University of New Hampshire runner Erica Jesseman, 36, who now lives in Scarborough, Maine, finished her first Boston Marathon in 2:44:35.
"I went out real hard," Jesseman said. "I definitely felt in the second half. Oh my god, so many people, it was unbelievable. It was a really cool race."
Monday's weather conditions were close to ideal for running, with temperatures in the high 50s. It was a stark contrast to a year before, when temps reached the high 80s.

He's a funny guy. We chatted about Clermont, WJC's, his "concussion", Niko Hov's, tomorrow's game vs Elmira again, and Albany and their lack of scoring. Fun game, Wedge admitted it was an awful game, hence the score.

Midwest Living Review
This is a family-friendly spot for a hearty meal that feels home-cooked.
Set in a strip mall along the main drag outside Port Clinton, Dianna's feels a little like a cross between a Perkins and a hometown diner. The menu offers plentiful, hearty choices, from steak and baked potatoes to pasta to sandwiches. All are yummy and served in big portions. The basic decor (low booths interspersed with long tables for big groups) gets a little personalization from a collection of framed Greek travel photos implying the owners have a passion for Greece, even though the menu doesn't feature Greek food prominently.
