Mars and Venus Conjoin
This is not about: "She's from Venus; he's from … an alternate universe?" This is about two real planets in conjunction.

Named after Roman gods who, at least in theory, controlled the solar system as Rome did much of Europe, Mars and Venus now appear setting close together in the night sky. Today they will set about 10 minutes apart. On Saturday, February 21, they will set the sky aflame!
And the view on Friday, February 20, is nothing to sneeze at, either. Mars, Venus, and the crescent moon will all be setting together.

and timing for England
"No matter where you live worldwide, just look west. We'll all see these worlds, though their orientation to each other and your horizon might look different from our chart."
Last weekend in the mountains I saw Jupiter rising in the east
and, 180 degrees opposite in the west, Venus setting. Head-turning.

"and it was good"
In our Western creation story, Genesis, the first book of the Bible, God creates the world in six days. After each of the first five days, God assesses his handiwork and expresses his satisfaction with the phrase: "…and … it was good". After the sixth and final day: "… and behold, it was very good".*
Not awesome, not fabulous or fantastic, not the best or superb, but "very good". Is God the ultimate moderator of words, reviewing the exquisite beauty of creation with a qualified adjective? God's approval appears to be infinite, but the expression is measured. What do we make of this?
Is something else being communicated here? Something about the state of the universe itself?
Many people assume that the universe is neither benign nor malicious, that its internal workings do not tend to, do not push us towards, either good or evil; that good and evil are what we humans make of them. I wonder.
Is God conveying an understanding that the universe just created is inherently good, that is, full of goodness? Are love, decency, compassion, and warmth the essence of what flows around us? Why do we expect the ultimate victor in war to be the decent side? Why should this be in a world where good and evil are evenly balanced?
Our own life experiences influence us in this determination, and each one must decide for himself. Yet I feel certain that this language of "goodness" contains more than a grammar lesson, an example of controlled and understated writing technique.
May we as humans live up to the expectations of the universe and make this world one of goodness.
*Genesis I:4, 10, 12, 18, 21, 25, 31
This will be enough Bible study for the time.

The Goat and Her Kid, cont.
The "mother goat and her kid" passage from the Bible leads inexorably to an examination of modern slaughterhouse methods. Oh, how I do not wish to go here. How I wish to remain ignorant. This examination will be cursory, to preserve my own and your sanity. What little I have learned is enough.
Modern slaughterhouse methods, at least in the U.S., require for hygienic purposes that the animal be shackled and hoisted while still alive. The animal may be unconscious, although the process of rendering a living animal unconscious is itself horrific, difficult to administer properly, and too often ineffective. If the slaughter is to comport with Jewish or Islamic religious requirements, the animal must be conscious when killed. This is to be certain that the animal is not diseased or otherwise unfit.
Ritual slaughter in ancient days was ostensibly designed for a quick death to minimize suffering and demonstrate respect and compassion for the animal. The combination of hygienic and religious laws today has the opposite effect.
Although certain practices are said to have improved in recent years, these practices vary widely between slaughterhouses. Workers themselves are subjected to brutal and dangerous conditions, requiring them to kill hundreds of animals a day, leaving little time to take care that minimal standards of animal welfare are met.
In sum, the terror, pain, and suffering our slaughterhouse practices inflict on the animal are, or should be, beyond belief. The soul shrivels with horror. How can we be part of this in any way?
I am beginning to realize that our cruelty to wolves is but part of a larger cruelty to animals everywhere. Slaughterhouses; puppy mills; pitiless hunting techniques that include trapping, poisoning, trip-wire snaring at the throat, calling with sounds of pups in distress, aerial gunning; the public and private abuse of domestic and captive wild animals – all unregulated, uncontrolled, existing only by virtue of the power we hold over the defenseless and our sense of entitlement. I have come to believe that sustained cruelty on a massive scale, whether to humans or animals, is founded in large part upon inertia, ignorance, and entitlement – the systemic evil of our human condition.*
What can be done? Here are only a few ideas. Please add your own.
We can choose not to eat meat.
If we do eat meat, we can insist on knowing where it comes from, the conditions under which it was raised, and the circumstances of its slaughter.
We can refuse to purchase a puppy from a mill.
We can speak out for the voiceless, in whatever format and in whatever way moves our heart and suits our capabilities.
We can open our eyes and refuse to turn away.
Paralyzed with fear
prodded and jolted
stench searing the brain
the fruits of cruelty
stagger to our table.
What is on my table?
How did it get here?
Do I want to know?
two early poems, from Songs for a Beloved Friend, Poems and Essays for the Planet
Carmen Mandel speaks regularly for the voiceless at her blog, Vegan Heart
I am not including links to sites discussing the methods briefly described above. The reading is simply too disturbing. You can find these sites on your own if you need to.
*This does not discount the existence of insanity at the governmental and individual level.
The Bible and Human Food Consumption
The Bible and Human Food Consumption
The Old Testament contains a passage, repeated three times* lest we fail to take note, prohibiting the seething of a kid in his^ mother's milk. Ancient tradition takes this to mean that milk and meat must not be eaten together. This is a possible, and certainly a hoary, reading. So understood, it is a rather indirect command, and the God we venerate in the Old Testament is not known for beating about the bush when issuing commandments. "Thou shalt not consume milk and meat together at a single sitting" would be more expected.
And why the example of a mother and baby, if this proscription concerns itself only with the mingling of meat and milk? The relationship is important and gets at the essence of what these words are designed to convey.
The interpretation I prefer, one which hits me in the solar plexus with some force, is that human preparation and consumption of food must comport with our notions of decency. Boiling a kid in his mother's milk is unseemly, to say the least. It's indecent, it shocks the conscience, and, therefore, it may not be done.
This explanation has the added benefits 1) of being a much more direct reading of the words used, and 2) of echoing God's joy expressed in Genesis when viewing the entirety of creation. One must be careful and respectful when taking an animal's life, because animals are an integral part of the whole.
If taken to heart, such a reading carries with it far-ranging requirements concerning animal husbandry, practices of raising and slaughtering animals for human consumption. Current practices do not pass the test. They fail abysmally and continue only because most of us, myself included, have heretofore chosen to remain ignorant. The reality is so painful, and change seems so slow in coming. Further discussion of this difficult, this terrible subject, follows of necessity.
* in Exodus 23:19 and 34:26; and Deuteronomy 14:21
^ If the possessive pronoun "his" seems strange to you, that's not unusual. The Bible, at least in the English translations available to us, uses the word "its" to refer to the kid. "It" is our language's traditional usage when referring to an animal.
Our language and our attitudes resist referring to an animal by its gender. "It" objectifies. This animal has no gender and therefore no voice, no individuality. It is simply an exchangeable unit in a multitude of faceless units. Therefore we need take no note of this creature as a distinct life form. And therefore we can do to "it" as we will.
Beware of "it" in your usage, because language directs thought, and vice-versa.
mountain goats on Mt. Sinai – no, wait – this is Glacier National Park
Lost in Translation
The Bible, as the most frequently-read book in Western society, serves as foundation for our attitudes, customs, and practices concerning each other and the world in which we live. Some believe every word is the word of God and therefore an edict. I hope they are reading in the original and not in translation. Some understand the writing as a powerful allegory.
In any case, the Bible has influenced us for millennia and continues to do so. Taking a fresh look at it for its effect on modern culture seems appropriate. That's what I'll be doing in several subsequent postings. I hope you'll come along for the ride. It may get bumpy.
Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

Take Cover – Hawk in the Yard!
This hawk and her mate have become increasingly frequent visitors to my yard with its bird feeders. I think she is a Cooper's hawk, and not a sharp-shinned, and here's why:
Cooper's are bigger, 14-20 inches – crow size – as opposed to 10-14 inches – dove or jay size – for the sharp-shinned. This is a big bird. Eyes are closer to the front of the head than those of a sharp-shinned.
Feathers on top of head are darker than those behind the neck, giving the bird a capped appearance,as opposed to a uniformly dark cap and nape in the sharp-shinned.
The Cooper's long tail has a rounded rather than a square tip. What a feather coat she sports!
Listen to the call: It may be a post-dinner song, somewhat defiant, as if to say: "Well, I have to eat, too!"
But check out these links from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology website and decide for yourself:

Tricky Bird Identifications

As a somewhat belated warning, the flickers call after-the-fact in imitation. Their normally slower-paced mellow cry becomes faster and more shrill: "Be mindful: Hawk was just here and may come again!"

Fever (also known as pyrexia[1]) is one of the most common medical signs and is characterized by an elevation of body temperature above the normal range of 36.5–37.5 °C (97.7–99.5 °F) due to an increase in the temperature regulatory set-point.
As a person's temperature increases, there is, in general, a feeling of cold despite an increase in body temperature. Once the new temperature is reached, there is a feeling of warmth.

Diabetes and Symptoms
Diabetes mellitus, or simply diabetes, is a group of metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar, either because the pancreas does not produce enough insulin, or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced.[2] This high blood sugar produces the classical symptoms of polyuria (frequent urination), polydipsia (increased thirst) and polyphagia (increased hunger).
There are three main types of diabetes mellitus (DM).

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Supplemental online material Figure S1. The D-isomer of 1MT is specific for IDO. Tumors were grown in either IDO-deficient (IDO-KO) hosts or WT hosts, both on the B6 background. The pDC fraction (CD11c+B220+) containing the IDO+ DCs was sorted from TDLNs. The balance of TDLN cells, which included all the other APCs, was also collected in each sort. MLRs were performed using the two populations (pDCs and all other cells) as stimulators for BM3 T cells, separately and mixed together. The upper panel demonstrates suppression by the pDC fraction, which was reversed by D-1MT. There was no suppression by the other-APC fraction, and no effect of D-1MT. Mixing of the two stimulator populations demonstrated that suppression by IDO was dominant, as previously described (1). However, when the pDC fraction was derived from IDO-KO mice, there was no suppression by pDCs, and no effect of D-1MT on T cell proliferation. Thus, IDO-KO DCs lacked the target for D-1MT, confirming that the D isomer acted on IDO, not via some off-target effect. Additional detailed methods Mice Animal studies were approved by the institutional animal use committee of the Medical College of Georgia or the Lankenau Institute for Medical Research. C57BL/6 (B6) mice and rag1-KO mice (B6 background) were from Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). FVB/N- Tg(MMTVneu)202Mul/J mice, homozygous for a rat cNeu transgene under the mouse mammary tumor virus promoter (MMTV-Neu mice) (2) were from Jackson Laboratory. BALB/cAnNCr -1- mice were from Charles River Laboratories (Frederick, MD). IDO-KO mice have been previously described (3). Sources of 1MT isomers Studies of the various 1MT isomers in human DCs were performed on at least two different sets of each compound, supplied in blinded fashion by the Developmental Therapeutics Program, National Cancer Institute (Bethesda, MD), and results confirmed using multiple different commercial lots of each isomer obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. All experiments gave similar results. For in vivo studies, 1-methyl-D-tryptophan was supplied by the Developmental Therapeutics Program, National Cancer Institute and confirmed using commercially prepared D and DL isomers (Sigma-Aldrich). 1MT was prepared as a 20 mM stock solution in 0.1 N NaOH and adjusted to pH 7.4; solutions were stored at 4o C and protected from light. Administration of 1MT and chemotherapy agents Administration of 1MT by implantable subcutaneous pellets was performed as described (4, 5). Pellets tended to release higher amounts during the early period of the infusion, so the treatment periods stated are the nominal release times. To prepare 1MT for oral gavage, 1 g of 1MT (Sigma) was added to a 15 ml conical tube with 7.8 ml Methocel/Tween [0.5% Tween 80/0.5% Methylcellulose (v/v in water; both from Sigma)]. The mixture was bead milled overnight by adding 1-2 ml by volume of 3 mm glass beads (Fisher) and mixing by inversion. The next day, the 1MT concentration was adjusted to 85 mg/ml by adding an additional 4 ml Methocel/Tween and mixing again briefly. The 1MT slurry was administered by oral gavage at 400 mg/kg/dose (0.1 cc/20 g mouse) using a curved feeding needle (20 G x 1 1/2 in; Fisher). For bid (twice a day) dosing, 1MT was administered once in the morning and once in the evening. For administration in drinking water, D-1MT was prepared at 2 mg/ml in water as described above, supplemented with a small amount of aspartame (2 envelopes per liter) to improve acceptance by the mice, and filter sterilized. The solution was delivered in standard autoclaved drinking-water bottles. Mice drank 4.5-5.0 ml/day (similar to consumption of water without drug). Plasma levels of D-1MT at the end of 6 days were 33-40 uM. Paclitaxel (Hanna Pharmaceuticals, Wilmington, DE), 6 mg/ml in 50% Cremphor EL / 50% ethanol, was diluted in saline delivered i.v. Cyclophosphamide was from Bristol-Myers Squibb (Princeton, NJ) or Hanna Pharmaceuticals, and gemcitabine from Eli Lilly (Indianapolis, IN). In vivo bioluminescence imaging of 4T1-luc tumors For bioluminescence imaging experiments, luciferase-expressing derivative of the 4T1 cell line (4T1-luc) was prepared by stable transfection of pCAG-luc (generously provided by Dr. J Sawicki), which expresses the firefly luciferase gene under the control of the β-actin promoter and the CMV IE enhancer. Transfection was followed by three rounds of single cell cloning to establish a cell line with stably expressed luciferase activity. Prior to imaging, tumor-bearing mice were anesthetized by intramuscular injection of a mixture of 25 mg/kg ketamine/5 mg/kg xylazine hydrochloride (Hanna Pharmaceuticals, Wilmington, DE). Anesthetized mice were injected intraperitoneally with 150 mg/kg firefly luciferin (Xenogen, Alameda, CA). At 5 min after administration of the substrate, in vivo images were acquired with an IVIS charge-coupled- device camera system (Xenogen). Data analysis was performed with the LivingImage 2.5 -2- software package (Xenogen ). IDO enzyme assays Purification of recombinant human His6-tagged IDO produced by E. coli strain BL21DE3pLys, and the 96-well plate-based spectrophotometric assay to monitor enzymatic activity, were performed essentially as described (6). Briefly, 1MT enantiomers were solubilized in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) containing 0.1N HCl and added at concentrations of 100, 50, and 0 µM (but maintaining constant DMSO and HCl dilutions of 1:1000) to wells containing the reaction mixture (6) in which the tryptophan concentration was varied from 0-200 µM, followed by addition of IDO enzyme. Plates were sealed with plastic wrap and incubated 1 hr in a humidified 37˚C incubator, after which the reactions were terminated by addition of 12.5 µl 30% TCA per well. Plates were then resealed in plastic wrap, incubated 30 min at 50˚C to hydrolyze the reaction product N-formylkynurenine to kynurenine, and centrifuged 10 min at 2400 rpm in a Sorvall tabletop centrifuge. Supernatants were transferred to a flat-bottom 96-well plate, mixed with 100 µl Ehrlich reagent (2% p-dimethylamino benzaldehyde w/v in glacial acetic acid), and incubated 10 min at room temperature. Absorbance at 490 nm was read on a Bio-Tek Synergy NT plate reader to quantitate the reaction product.} Global nonlinear regression analysis and computation of best fit Ki values was performed using the Prism4 software package (GraphPad). For HeLa cell assays, HeLa human tumor cells (ATCC) were seeded at 4.0 x 104 cells per well in DMEM/phenol red free media supplemented with 10% FBS (Hyclone) and penicillin- streptomycin (Gibco). The following day, 1-MT enantiomers or the racemic mixture were solubilized in DMSO/0.1 N HCl and serially diluted in assay wells while maintaining the DMSO/HCl dilution constant at 1:1000. 100 ng/ml of human recombinant IFN-γ (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) was then added per well to stimulate IDO expression. Following IFN-γ addition, plates were incubated 20 hr at 37˚C in a humidified CO2 incubator. Supernatants (200 µl media/well) were harvested and analyzed for kynurenine as described (5). For measurement of kynurenine production by human DCs in allo-MLRs, culture supernatants were harvested on day 5 of MLR and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography as previously described (1). Similar patterns were also obtained at days 2 and 3 of MLR. Human monocyte-derived APCs and allo-MLRs. Work with human materials was performed under protocols approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Medical College of Georgia. Our systems for culturing IDO+ human monocyte- derived DCs and macrophages have been previously described (1, 7). For DCs, the features of the culture system relevant to maximizing IDO expression included the use of leukocytapheresis followed by counterflow elutriation for preparation of monocytes; culture for 7 days in serum- free X-vivo15 medium (BioWhitaker, Walkersville, MD) supplemented with GMCSF + IL4; maturation during the final 48 hrs of culture with TNFα, IL1β, IL6 and PGE2 (but without IFNγ, CD40-ligand or TLR-ligands); and harvesting of only the non-adherent cell fraction. The PGE2 reagent was found to be labile, and so was frozen in aliquots and mixed fresh for each experiment. Monocyte-derived macrophages were cultured as previously described (7) using recombinant human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (R&D Systems), with IFNγ (100 U/ml) added for the last 24 hrs. For human allo-MLRs, 2.5 × 104 nonadherent DCs were mixed with 5 x 105 allogeneic lymphocytes in 250 ul of medium (10% fetal calf serum in RPMI-1640) in "V"-bottom culture -3- wells (Nalge-Nunc, Rochester, NY). V-bottom wells gave superior IDO activity, as previously described (1). For mitogen-activated T cell proliferation, purified lymphocytes were activated with immobilized anti-CD3 antibody plus soluble anti-CD28 (1). After 5 days, proliferation was measured by 4 hr [3H]thymidine-incorporation assay. Mouse tumor-draining lymph node pDCs and MLRs Mouse IDO-expressing DCs from tumor-draining lymph nodes, as used in our previous publications (8, 9). Tumors were implanted using 1 x 106 B78H1·GM-CSF cells injected subcutaneously in the anteriomedial thigh of syngeneic wild-type B6 mice, or mice with a targeted disruption of the IDO gene (IDO-KO mice) (3). After 11 days, inguinal LNs were removed for cell sorting to enrich for IDO+ DCs, which were contained in the plasmacytoid DC fraction (CD11c+B220+ cells). These sorted B220+CD11c+ DCs contained all of the IDO- mediated suppressor activity, and were used as stimulators in allo MLRs as described (8). Responder cells were 1 × 105 nylon-wool enriched BM3 TCR-transgenic BM3 T cells, recognizing the -H2Kb allo-antigen expressed on the B6-background DCs, as described (8). After 3 days, proliferation was measured by 4-hr thymidine incorporation assay. All MLRs were performed in V-bottom culture wells (Nalge-Nunc, Rochester, NY), and the IDO+ DCs were not irradiated. Western blots Affinity-purified polyclonal rabbit antibody was raised against the peptide sequence DLIESGQLRERVEKLNMLC, from the N-terminal portion of the published human IDO sequence (NM002164) (10), conjugated to KLH, and has been previously described (11). Affinity-purified polyclonal rabbit antibody against the C-terminal peptide sequence LKTVRSTTEKSLLKEG conjugated to ovalbumin was prepared similarly. 2D-Western blots were performed using a Protean IEF cell and Mini-Protean blotting system (BioRad, Hercules, CA) as described (11). Both antibodies detected single bands consistent with the predicted molecular weight for one or more splice-variants of IDO (12), and the bands were fully neutralized in Western blots by their respective immunizing peptides. To rule out the possibility that the N-terminal epitope (which was constitutively expressed) might be a spurious cross-reacting band, we conducted a BLAST search of the Genbank protein database using the immunizing peptide. This peptide sequence matched only IDO. The N-terminal band was constitutive in macrophages, but validation studies showed that the band was not found in other cell types (e.g., B cells), and the levels of the N-terminal band was regulated in DCs by maturation status. Reactivity of the N-terminal antibody was fully neutralized by the immunizing peptide sequence. Statistical analysis For analysis of variance, the comparison was performed on the two arms that of interest in order to test for an effect of 1MT when combined with chemotherapy: thus, in all analyses, the chemotherapy+vehicle arm was compared to chemotherapy+1MT arm in each experiment. Because the group sizes were small in each individual experiments, 3 identical experiments were performed and analyzed together where possible. If needed, a log transformation was used on tumor size to render tumor growth to experiment end a linear trend with homogeneous variance across time. A regression of tumor size on day was performed for each mouse. The resulting slopes were interpreted as the rate of growth of tumor size to end-point (euthanasia). Where -4- indicated, identical experiments were pooled and analyzed in a 3 Experiment × 2 Group analysis of variance (ANOVA) where an interaction between experiment and group was investigated. When comparing the effect of chemotherapy+vehicle and chemotherapy+1MT on the rate of tumor growth for two types of mice (WT vs. IDO-KO) a 2 Group x 2 Type ANOVA with interaction was used. In Fig. 2 and Fig. 6 comparisons of interest were fold-change in tumor size, and age at death, respectively. Since all mice were alive at the end of the experiments the survival data were not censored and the mean was an unbiased representation of µ. However, for experiments using both survival and fold-change measurements, the SDs between groups varied considerably, and the fold-change measurements were likely not normally distributed; therefore, data were analyzed using a two group Wilcoxon exact test, due to the distributional issues and the small sample size. Significance was determined at p < [0.05/(number of comparisons)] for each experiment. SAS version 9.1.3 was used for all analyses References 1. Munn DH, Sharma MD, Mellor AL.

Montgomery committed a franchise-record eight errors and Vizcaino struck out seven over six innings Saturday as the Mississippi Braves flattened the Biscuits, 11-3.
Montgomery entered the game ranked second in the Southern League in fielding percentage, having committed 42 miscues in 55 games. But third baseman Henry Wrigley made three errors, including two on the same play, and catcher Nevin Ashley made two throwing errors.
The other miscues belonged to second baseman Shawn O'Malley, shortstop Tim Beckham and reliever Jim Paduch as the Biscuits came within one error of matching the Southern League record. The previous team mark was six, set on July 31, 2008 against Huntsville.
The biggest beneficiary was Vizcaino (1-1), who allowed three runs on five hits and two walks in his second start for the M-Braves.
Promoted from Class A Advanced Lynchburg on May 29, the 20-year-old right-hander took the loss in his Southern League debut on Monday after yielding five runs on four hits, including three homers, over seven innings against Mobile. He was 2-2 with a 2.45 ERA in nine Carolina League starts.
Rowdy Hardy gave up two hits and struck out two over two scoreless frames and Eliecer Cardenas finished up for Mississippi, which ended a five-game losing streak.
Donell Linares hit a three-run homer and Tyler Pastornicky went 3-for-5 with two RBIs and two runs scored for the Braves.
Former third-round pick Nick Barnese (1-2) was charged with five runs -- four earned -- on five hits and three walks over four innings for Montgomery.

Getting there is more than half the fun if you stay at the next generation of airport hotels, revamped to make a night near the runways more fun. Peter Greenberg (petergreenberg.com), travel editor of NBC'sToday show and author of the upcoming Don't Go There! The Travel Detective's Essential Guide to the Must-Miss Places of the World (Rodale Books, $17.95), shares his favorite new airport hotels with Kathy Baruffi for USA TODAY.
The Fairmont Vancouver Airport Vancouver, British Columbia
"The cool thing about this hotel is its location: inside the U.S. departures terminal," Greenberg says. "As an added bonus, if you're going fishing, they have a 'fish valet' to store your catch." All guest rooms have floor-to-ceiling soundproof windows. Views include the North Shore Mountains and airport runways, as well as partial views of the Pacific. 604-207-5200; fairmont.com/vancouverairport
Hyatt Regency Orlando International AirportOrlando
"The cool thing about this hotel is that the bellman actually meets you at baggage claim, and you can't really get stuck in traffic on the way to the airport: You're already inside the terminal," Greenberg says. The hotel is great for families, particularly if they have a late-night arrival or early departure. 407-825-1234; orlandoairport.hyatt.com
Sofitel London HeathrowLondon
"The recent opening of this hotel changes the definition of what an airport hotel can be," Greenberg says. To wit: world-class spa, fine dining, lobby bar, tea salon and state-of-the-art rooms, including the Imperial Suite with Swarovski crystal fixtures and lights in the bathroom. The Sofitel, connected to Terminal 5 by footbridge, is also convenient to central London via Heathrow rail service. sofitelheathrow.com
Aloft Philadelphia AirportPhiladelphia
"If I'm going to be stuck in an airport hotel, give me a 42-inch plasma TV," Greenberg says. Aloft adds a new twist in style to the Philly market. The lobby, which opens into a backyard patio and pool, is like a giant living room with people using laptops, chatting or playing pool. Grab-and-go food, from healthy meals to cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory, is available. 877-462-5638; alofthotels.com
Kempinski Hotel Airport MünchenMunich, Germany
A soaring glass-covered atrium with towering palms greets guests as they step into the ultra-modern, light-filled space of this luxurious hotel. The Fit & Fly Spa and pool are available for day-trippers as well as overnight guests. Ditto for the fine dining. Choose from the Thai-Mediterranean-inspired Safran restaurant, Charles Lindbergh restaurant or Lobby Café. "For once, an airport hotel in Germany that doesn't force-feed you pretzels and beer," Greenberg says. www.kempinski-airport.de
Grand Hyatt DFWDallas-Fort Worth
"Wine pairings at an airport hotel? Who knew? Even better, they've got a really decent restaurant," Greenberg says. Dine at the Grand Met and sit at the chef's table near the show kitchen. Peruse a virtual menu with a touch screen that lists ingredients along with pictures and other information, such as chef recommendations for wine pairings. The hotel is integrated into the airport. The chic interiors, with soothing and calming color schemes, were designed to balance the stress and frenzy of plane travel. 972-973-1234; grandhyattdfw.com

Ronnie boy...
Submitted by Grand Ole Party on Mon, 08/20/2012 - 11:21pm.
Ronnie boy earned his jail time. How in the name of all that is unholy do you figure he took his walk of shame with honor? He cried the whole time. Then after finally getting out he claimed he was threatened and had to plead guilty. He was no better than Gore. A dirty bottom feeder. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Enjoy your time at the bottom boys.

Off-the-shelf options may rule the roost when it comes to mobile enterprise applications used by businesses and their employees. But there's a productive hen with the ability to lay golden eggs that's gaining greater prominence in this market: custom mobile apps that are fully or partially personalized, tailor-made, and paid for by a company to meet its particular business or mission needs.

Child with lighter starts fire
A house fire Sunday afternoon caused substantial damage to a single-story Hastings home at 808 W. 15th St. The fire department received the call at about 5 p.m.
The fire was started by a child, said Assistant Fire and EMS Director John Townsend. The 8-year-old was playing with a lighter in his bedroom and ignited some material from his bed. The fire grew from there.
The boy alerted his family, and they exited the home. It didn't take long for the fire to spread.

We ran a gimme for a double set of tickets for Oppikoppi 2013 Bewilder Beast a lil' while back, asking you to show us a picture of the level of homelessness you were going to experience after the weekend of dirt, drinking and partying. We got a lotta entries, but alas, there can only be one winner. Read on to see our winning entry.
We were looking for something really desperate and nasty, and for someone who really, really wanted to win with their homelessness. So, a big congratulations goes out to Dihael Prins, who went the extra mile here with his entry. Cardboard sign? Check. Booze? Check. Chilling out in the water in the middle of the park and having no shame about it because you wanna go to Oppikoppi 2013 Bewilder Beast? Big check! Congratulations Dihael, we salute you.
Here's what Dihael had to say about his entry:
"On the cart board [sic]:"We need these oppi tickets more than Barcelona needs messi!"
The marker dried up before we could finish the board. Didn't have money for a new one. Obviously!"
A big thanks goes out to everyone who participated, it was a lot of fun going through all of the entries. If you wanna win tickets from us though, you gotta do some outrageous shit like our homeless hero over here. See you at the Koppi, Dihael. Woo.

Sink Drain question
I just unclogged a TON of the wife's hair out of the bathroom sink (because the water was draining really slow...and no, she's not balding.).
Now, if I fill the sink w/cold water, it drains out faster than HECK and even creates an eddy.
However, if I fill the sink w/hot water, it drains really slow and occassionally, bubbles will come up out of the drain.
What gives? Is there some law of physics that says hot water drains a LOT slower than cold?
Thanks in advance!
I know that hot water can soften PVC drain pipes causing them to sag in the middle of long unsupported runs. Maybe a pipe starts sagging causing an uphill climb on the downstream end? Seems like it would take a lot of hot water to soften the pipe that much though... Or maybe the hot water is softening something in the sink drain-stopper causing it to sag and block the drain... ? I am not a plumber :)
Well, the pipes won't sag when you use hot water and then go back to normal when you use cold water again next time. So I doubt that that's the issue. Maybe try lukewarm water and see if that makes a difference also, that would suggest that something does soften above a certain temperature.
I also had similar problems with my wife's hair, have a look at the drain traps on the link below, still haven't purchased one but I wonder if they do what they promise.
Here is a link that might be useful: Non-clogging drain traps
i am having the same problem with my new sink! it has only been 2 days since a complete new sink has been installed in my new bathroom. so definitely the pipes are not clogged.Has anyone been able to resolve this issue??
However, i tried the solution posted by homebound and everytime i pour detergent in the still hot water sitting in the sink, the water instantly drains out. but if i open the Hot Water again...the same thing, it won't drain. what to do?? please advise. any suggestions will be appreciated. thanks.
Hot water warms the air, and warm air rises, lowering air pressure at the surface. That's weather. You have a microclimate. Rising moisture and warmer air create a column of low pressure above the sink. It must be creating enough uplift to counteract the usual effects of gravity and atmospheric pressure. With cold water and typical high pressure, I would expect water to flow down through plumbing faster. This might just be an extreme case. A partially clogged drain or vent wouldn't help.

Chris Bosh expects 'good' Heat team
Chris Bosh said Thursday that he was "close" to leaving the Miami Heat before ultimately deciding to sign a five-year, $118 million contract to stay with the team.
"It was close. I'm not going to lie," Bosh said on "The Zaslow and Joy Show" on FM 104.3 The Ticket in Miami. "It was close. It was a weird situation because we were waiting so long and I didn't know what was going on.
"I think you're always in a situation where it is close even if you don't leave because teams ...
