Lost of "cool" factor here. Zen-like outdoor space is a nice retreat in crazy Shanghai.
Brand new eco friendly hotel in hip part of Puxi in Shanghai.
From the photos on the internet, we had high hopes that the hotel would be sleek, modern and stylish. The reality of URBN Hotel Shanghai far exceeded our expectations. We could have happily spent our entire time in Shanghai in our room or the lounge or the private bar. The food was great and the bartender in the private bar made us delicious customized drinks (and recommended a fabulous authentic local restaurant for dinner). We love the wall of suitcases behind the reception desk. The staff is extremely helpful and everyone is down to earth. Although they've only been open a few months, they seem to have worked out all the usual hiccups that you typically find with new hotels. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to family and friends.
Rooms were great (both standard and garden view) even though they and the corridors got super-hot (July) and getting to my first room involved me lugging about my heavy bags up a flight of stairs (no elevator access to certain rooms). Great location.
L'ambiance, la déco, la situation
Attractive dining area, pleasant outdoor space in good weather, hip vibe, comfortable beds with quality linens, well-stocked mini-bar, interesting location, flat screen t.v.'s with DVD library, iPod/iPhone music dock, free WiFi, good pre-arrival assistance with plans.
This hotel is a haven in Shanghai: small and comfortable but still centrally located in a real neighbourhood, close to shopping and the subway. The kitchen is excellent and reasonably priced and the wait staff were very courteous, and sensitive. The rooms were large, spacious and very well-designed with a clean aesthetic. I loved the ipod station and free internet service. As a female traveller travelling alone I also appreciated that the rooms could only be accessed via a lift with key access. And I liked the idea of the guests only bar though I didn't end up using it. I would certainly recommend this hotel for both business or leisure travel.
Decor, Tranquilité, restaurant
A great room, one of the nicest we've ever stayed in (garden view room)....Well laid out entrance, sleeping and crash spacesNice lighting - with mood optionsComfortable chaise in front of the window with views to garden fountainsHelpful staff with good english spoken.Plenty of storageBest steak frites we've ever had...try the restaurant!Turn down service with comical fortune cookiesGood shower with bench seating 2
Accurate and very detailed room design.. and the small things like corny bars, ropes on your bed every night, really great restaurant, the atmosphere at the lobby.. great rooms, ipod station, and finally the soaps are excellent..
bathrooms in Atrium room were beautifulhotel is eco-friendlygood neighborhood in Shanghai - away from the tourist bustle downtown
While staying in Shanghai, the traveler has many options. I stayed at the Westin and felt it was too corporate as if I were working. Very standard expectations. The URBN hotel was an oasis and the studio was stunning. I've stayed at a lot of nice hotels around the world (albeit on the client's dime or points) but I have to admit this was one the top 5 rooms in my experience.Top Reasons to stay here:- 26-room hotel means service, service, service- Great hotel room with tub in the room- Rain Forest Showerhead- Quaint and Sexy atmosphere

In April 2014, Governor Pat McCrory announced a new initiative, called NCWorks that brings together North Carolina's workforce partners with one name and one goal: Connecting NC talent to NC Jobs. The initiative focuses on five steps that will connect NC employers with the NC employees they need to succeed in our state and will help our citizens improve their quality of life.
I am honored to be a part of a local committee co-chaired by Ann Butler from Sampson Community College and Rosalind Cross from the Triangle South Workforce Development Board. The local committee is charged to scan the needs of our businesses and the effectiveness of our workforce programs based on industry feedback. Locally, we are chargedwith gaining information from 10 industries, focusing on workforce. This statewide initiative starts mid-September and isto be completed by January 2015. Collectively, the group will gain information from 1,000 companies in 100 counties in 100 days.
As stated by the initiative announcement, "North Carolina is home to a great workforce and strong businesses who build their success on that great workforce. But business and industry across the state, like their counterparts around the country, say they can't find the qualified employees they need."
"How can North Carolina help these businesses and ultimately help North Carolinians find promising careers? First, we want to understand the problems by deploying local NCWorks teams to listen to business needs and then bring all the federal, state and local resources available to respond to those needs."
"In short, "1,000 in 100" is about giving North Carolina's industry a chance to talk and our workforce professionals a chance to listen, as one, so they can offer solutions as one. That's how NCWorks."
I am honored to be a part of this committee led by co-chairs Ann Butler and Rosalind Cross. I look forward to listening to our local industries and their workforce needs. After the industries data is gathered, it will be submitted on a statewide level for review and recommendations.
As always, thank you for your support of the Chamber and please continue to let us know how we can better serve you. If you have questions about one of the many fall programs and opportunities, please call 910-592-6177 or e-mail www.clintonsampsonchamber.org.

The End of Voting Rights is a symposium sponsored by the Touro Journal of Race, Gender, and Ethnicity. Guest Editor Anthony Farley, James Campbell Matthews Distinguished Professor of Jurisprudence, Albany Law School, invited more than thirty scholars to contribute essays and articles reacting to the recent Supreme Court decision,
Shelby County v. Holder
. On Thursday - Friday, March 20-21, 2014, many of these scholars will meet at Touro Law Center to discuss the various themes that developed in the papers submitted to the Journal for publication. On Friday, local civil rights lawyers, Frederick Brewington and Randolph McLaughlin will re-enact their closing argument to the jury in a landmark local voting rights case,
Goosby v. Town of Hempstead
. In the 1997 Goosby case, the U.S. District Court Eastern District of New York found that the town of Hempstead's at-large voting system was racially discriminatory, and had to be replaced with a district system. A preview of an oral history with Touro Law Dean Emeritus Howard Glickstein, former staff attorney in the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice in the 1960s and General Counsel and Staff Director of the United States Civil Rights Commission will be shown as well.

If students at Indiana State University fail to graduate within four years, from now on they will be able to take their remaining coursework for free -provided they meet certain conditions of a contract signed their freshman year.
"Graduating within four years is the best way to keep the cost of attending college under control," Indiana State President Dan Bradley said at an announcement today of the "Sycamore Graduation Guarantee."
Students and university leadership must work together to ensure on-time graduation, Bradley said, as quoted in a release. ...

Hole of Lube
Igor and Mike are two beefy Latino muscle studs who play for opposing teams. After Mike's team loses the game, Igor comes in to offer his condolences and rub it in a little. But Mike's eye is on Igor's bulge in his shorts. Igor notices and offers it up to Mike and soon Mike is getting face fucked. After reciprocating, Igor rims Mike's hole to lube it up for a nice long bareback fuck session in the locker room.

CHEM 122 at University of California, Berkeley
Quantum Mechanics and Spectroscopy

Sep 5, 2010
Is this helpful?
Yes No
This class is mixed grad/undergrad, and as such the material is quite difficult at times. Professor Harris has prepared transparency's, so copying them is difficult as he swithces them out faster than I could write, but they were all posted online, so it was fine. The homework was difficult, but representative of the tests. The first half of the semester was all group theory, and was easier than the second, which was all hard quantum stuff. Overall it was a very interesting and challenging class. The only thing is the spectroscopic part was not emphasized by Prof. Harris, he said that the theory will allow you to understand the spectroscopy. He also said on the first day of class that the class is Deep. It was.

Saddam's trial witnesses faulty, says lawyer
By Suleiman al-Khalidi
AMMAN (Reuters) – Former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey
Clark, part of a team of lawyers defending Saddam Hussein
against charges of crimes against humanity, on Friday accused
witnesses in the trial of false testimony.
Clark said the prosecution was battling to present a
coherent case, with the nine witnesses who have testified so
far either speaking from behind a curtain to hide their
identities or reading from papers as if their testimony was
He also questioned the wisdom of combining their evidence
with their civil claims for compensation from the defendants.
"Some of the witnesses' testimony seemed entirely
fabricated and some seemed to be assisted, and those who
appeared all had paper in front of them," Clark, 77, who has
attended the trial since it resumed on November 28, told
Reuters in an interview.
"They were reading. Who do you know who wrote what? You
cannot tell whether it's something they saw or something they
heard or read in a newspaper," he said.
The trial was adjourned until December 21 on Wednesday
after a highly charged day in which Saddam refused to attend
the court after telling the judge the evening before to "go to
Clark, a controversial figure who has represented other
jailed former leaders in the past, including Serbia's Slobodan
Milosevic, said the inability of the defense to confront
witnesses was a serious flaw in Iraq's justice system.
Of the nine witnesses to testify so far, only two have
stood in open court. The others have not only been hidden
behind a high curtain but have also had their voices computer
"You have a right to confront your witness to see what he
is doing — if someone is whispering in his ears or a text
under the table," Clark said.
Two defense lawyers were murdered in the days after the
trial began on October 19 and many witnesses are too scared to
appear, even with their identities concealed. Some of those who
have testified have been verbally threatened by the defendants.
Much of the testimony so far has been harrowing, with
witnesses describing detentions, torture, near starvation and
sexual assault at the hands of Saddam's intelligence services
following a failed attempt on the president's life in 1982.
But there have also been many inconsistencies in the
stories the witnesses have told, and the judge has repeatedly
warned some of them not to ramble, and to clarify their
thoughts. Several were barely teenagers when the events took
"This is one of the amazing things," said Clark. "How does
a 10 or 12-year-old remember details and names, and sits there
and recites 18 names after how many years now we are talking?
Going back to 1982 or 1980?" he said.
"That's ridiculous … Somebody gave them those names."
Clark also assailed Iraq's legal system for letting
witnesses press claims for monetary compensation in a criminal
court, something that normally happens in a civil court in
U.S.-style, English-based legal systems.
All of the witnesses to appear so far are officially known
as complaining witnesses and at the end of their testimony the
judge asks them who they are complaining against and what
recompense they are seeking as part of their complaint.
Later, eyewitnesses and witnesses directly called by the
prosecution will be called, as will defense witnesses.
However, Clark said the court's reputation was being
tarnished by witnesses seeking monetary compensation, something
he said gave them an improper motive to testify.
"Here you are in a criminal case of historic importance in
which a fair trial and truth are essential to historic truth
and public justice … and you get people asking for money.
"I think that corrupts the trial itself," he said.

Coffeescript news
creating elements - most concise syntax? (self.coffeescript)
submitted 1 year ago * by morphemass
Okay, I'm new to coffeescript but it has been really growing on me and I've just started on a new project with it. I love how succinct one can be and was trying to work out how to concisely create html elements on the fly. The best I could come up with (using cs+jq) was:
div = $ "<div>", {
class: "studio", id: "studio_#{v['id']}",
text: "some text" }
However for longer lines if I want to avoid lint warning (and line length is one I stick to) I've found it necessary to wrap at the first curly brace. So my question is - is there a nicer way to do this?
I suppose I should also ask, where is the best place to discuss things like this for the newcomer? tia
[–]cwallen 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
You could drop the curly braces altogether:
div = $ "<div>",
class: "studio"
id: "studio_#{v['id']}"
text: "some text"
Also, if you are generating a significant amount of html from coffeescript, you may want to look into client side templates.

I've done it both ways....
- I had a child in 2008 when I was at the end of my sophomore year of college. When I'd found out I was pregnant with him eight months prior, I never even considered an abortion. 2 1/2 years later, I became pregnant again. I had been using the pill, although not quite religiously. The guy didn't want the child; abortion was his choice. I, however, wavered on it. On the one hand, I wanted the child. On the other, I was about to graduate and having a baby would keep me from getting a job and supporting my son. So, even though my friends told me to keep the baby, I was scared into an abortion. Raising two children was scary. I wasn't sure I was capable of handling it. So, at 12.3 weeks, I got it done. At the time, I still didn't want to do it but I was scared. The ultrasound picture haunts me. I feel like I'm in hell on earth. I wish I had kept the baby. I cry every day and night thinking about what I did to that baby. Keep the baby! Consider adoption over abortion. You will be much happier
- —Guest Neveragain88
A tough decision
- I had an abortion when I was 17 in Oct. 2006. It was really hard for me but I knew right when I found out I was pregnant that it was what I wanted to do. I wasn't in the place in my life that I wanted to be in, and I was having such a hard time with my boyfriend at the time. He liked my sister, was emotionally abusive, I really couldn't see myself with him forever, I couldn't see myself going through this and being happy, and I didn't want to be stuck with an a** forever so I called for the appointment. Two years later right before we broke up my ex told everyone we knew that I did it (no one but my family and him knew). It really is a very hard decision to make for any woman. I still feel sad about it every now and then especially now that I just recently had a baby (almost on the anniversary date of the abortion). But I don't regret that I did it. I was right about most of the reasons why I didn't want to go through with the pregnancy. Hope this helps someone out there
- —krs23
My reasons
- I was 18 when I had an abortion. Fresh out of high school, father was still married but separated. Being young and dumb, I was gullible in thinking his separation from his wife meant that I was something special (ha). I still lived at home, was making little over minimum wage (1981, pennies on the dollar), could no way afford a baby, and biggest reason of all....would have lost support and respect of my family. To have the baby would have defied all practical logic and it made sense to me. All I could see was dismal future, unhappiness, and a child with a father who was pissed off that the baby was born. I believe babies need to come into the world with both parents loving, open arms. Life is hard enough. People under duress are not in right frame of mind to make life-altering moral and ethical decisions; which is usually frame of mind when a women finds herself with an unplanned, unexpected pregnancy. I could just see myself on welfare. No way.
- —soosoo13579
Silent No More
- I had an abortion at 16. I was not encouraged by anyone to choose life , only death. Doctors on what was called a therapeutic abortion committee at the time told my parents that an abortion would be the best solution. They said it was a simple procedure and reassured my parents that I would return to school the next day unaffected. It was a lie! There was physical , emotional , psychological and spiritual pain that followed for many years. It's been 31 yrs and I can honestly say,the abortion did not solve any problems for me. Instead , it created more problems such as drinking , drugging and promiscuity. I've had 5 miscarriages during my marriage and I believe they were a result of scar tissue from having a surgical abortion. I've also been treated for depression for many years. I've become involved with a campaign called "Silent No More" where I've found much support from others who have experienced abortion as well. I realized that I did not have to suffer alone and there is hope!
- —Guest Dale
Not sure
- I just found out I was pregnant the other day. I immediately went to the doctor and confirmed everything. I'm 26 years old. I have always been very careful (birth control and smart decisions). We had a lapse in the birth control and in the 3 weeks without, even being "careful" didn't stop this. I know my boyfriend (who I was ready to end things with) doesn't want a child and has made that very clear. We didn't have the best relationship while we were together. I guess I'm really a little unsure. I always thought I would have an abortion if this happened before I was married and stable but I never thought I would be 26 facing this. My body has already started changing (I'm only about 3/4 weeks) and to know there is a little person inside of me that God gave me makes this the hardest decision I've ever had to make.

not sure what to do
- I'm about 9 weeks pregnant and I don't know how to deal with it. I'm in my first year at college and the father wants nothing to do with me or the baby (it was a one night stand). I have told my family, however I am not coping and I keep thinking how I have ruined my life. However, I don't think I could go through with an abortion. Adoption is also not an option. I don't know what to do.

Right Reason but still hard
- I had an abortion last week. I was 16 weeks and 2 days along. I had to have the abortion as my baby had a horrible illness that would have given him a short and sad life. My husband and I know that it was the right thing to do but it is still so hard to deal with. We are young but we know that we would have been really good parents. I find that I am getting really angry at people with trivial problems and parents who treat their children badly. It is not something I ever want to do again and I never wanted to have to do it in the first place.

Debating my 3rd abortion
- I had my first abortion when I was 21. My boyfriend at the time was having another baby with someone else who was further along. I decided that I didn't want my baby to have to deal with questions of why he/she had a sibling the same age that wasn't my child. I should have left but decided to stay with him. I got pregnant six months later. I miscarried around the time the other woman delivered. We found out the other baby wasn't even his. We tried to make the relationship work after all the drama, I got pregnant again when I was 23. The pain of the drama/abortions before was intense and my morning sickness was so bad, I had a surgical abortion. We decided to try to make it work and moved to another city and now I am 10 weeks. I feel the need to have another abortion and just move away to another city. This time my friends and family know. I thought it would be different because I didn't tell them before but I wish I would have just gotten a medical abortion when I found out.

Best thing I ever did...
- ..well, I'm not trying to imply that minor surgery was fun, or anything. But it was a lot more fun than having an unwanted child would have been. I've never wanted children; there was an odd birth control failure (surprised my doctor). Fortunately there was a safe, easy plan B. And there you go...I HATE it when people kiss up to the right and say that abortion is always a "difficult", "sad" choice. For many of us, who either don't want children or realize the time isn't right,and who don't confuse zygotes with actual children, it's the only choice, the responsible, caring one, and one for which we're very grateful. Obviously I'll never regret it.

The worse thing I've ever done
- I am 26 years old and just recently got an abortion 3 days ago :-( .... I am separated from my husband and we have two beautiful children .... I was not financially stable in any means to raise another baby as a single mom . My soon to be ex husband hardly has anything to do with our children as it is ... It was a quick decision I made one weekend with my best friend .... I was 10 weeks pregnant and had the dnc procedure . It was the worse pain I have ever went through in my entire life !!! Afterwards I feel like a murderer like I was supposed to take care of my baby and love it but I let some stranger dismember it and suck it out until it was no longer living .... Please for the love of god if your thinking of doing this DON'T !!! I made the worst mistake of my life and wish so much I could take it back bit it's too late !! This will haunt me for the rest of my life :-( !!

I will always regret it
- I had my abortion when I was 42. There was alot of pressure from my family and my husband to terminate the pregnancy. I am still saddened at the thought of what I did. Still angry at my husband and most times I don't want him to touch me. The abortion was 3 years ago. I don't see this relationship going anywhere. I don't respect my husband for coercing me into aborting. What type of man does that to the women he loves? I see him as a coward now.

Facing the hardest decision
- I am 28 and having an abortion tomorrow. This was a really hard decision for me. I'm 15 weeks and I can feel my little baby move... I even have pictures of him from the ultrasound. During my ultrasound the doctor discovered that my baby is at an increased risk for heart complications, but there is no way to know for sure until the baby is 22 weeks and by then it would be too late to terminate. My baby also has an increased risk for down syndrome. I believe it would be unfair to the baby and my four year old little girl to have a baby with serious ailments such as these. I wanted another baby so bad and there's no way of knowing 100% if the baby actually has a serious problem. I'm so scared! I have no idea what to do!

The Worst Feeling In The World
- I fell pregnant at 19 years old. I was in no way ready. I had been kicked out of home with no money and only the clothes on my back. I stayed with my boyfriend's cousin who did not support us because we didn't pay to stay. My boyfriend is abusive. He has a severe anger problem and has done things that make me cry just thinking of it. I had the abortion in May 2009. I couldn't handle the emotional pain and guilt. But I feared for myself and the baby because I had no home, and if I went back to my family my dad would have killed me. I can never live it down and I think of it all the time. I fell pregnant again just a few months later. I knew I did not want to go through it again. So I kept it and gave birth to the most beautiful baby boy. I cannot be happier. I'm pregnant again. It's only been a few months. I live with my parents and they strictly told me no more. I don't know what to do I feel guilty as ever. I read pro-life comments & feel like a murderer. I don't want to be. :'(

Regret it every day of my life
- I regret it every day of my life. I did it because I was a coward and was scared how others including my own family would perceive me. I never had a loving relationship with my mother. I wish I could convince other girls never to do this. A child is a blessing. It will forever haunt me and make me feel sadness even though I have other children. It took away my peace and happiness. I still laugh and smile but it has been many years and I think of it nearly every day. I feel the safest place for your baby should be your womb...where they are warm and protected. To think I let some doctor rip my baby out with a cold sterile instrument makes me feel such sadness. I pray to God that he will forgive me and I pray one day I will be able to see my babies face and finally find peace. If my daughter is ever faced with this I will love and support her and would never want her to consider abortion as an option. It does not solve anything--this world is just so messed up that we think it is ok.

never trust sweet talk from a guy
- well my boyfriend and i were having a serious conversation about sexual relasonships and having a baby while i was only 15. He started doing some sweet talk that got to me, i feel for it.He said that no matter what happened between us our baby will always be taken care of and will recive the best from us.He would never let me down or leave me alone with the baby we will have.He would man up and take responciblity like he should do.So now i have fallen for all of that and got peragnant.2 weeks later i tell him about or futher baby and he goes nuts on me and he douthed about him being the father.He starts talking alot of crap that i dident expect.he and mention ABORTION i told him if he was crazy.I would never kill my baby he respnded ur the crazy one for planning to have a baby on your own with out a father and no job or no one to depend on or ask for help cause i wont be here to raise that baby thats not even mine.i started thinking and i relized an]bortion was all i could choose.

The Space Station will soon have a same-day delivery service October 17, 2014 at 2:28 pm
The International Space Station will soon be equipped with its very own same-day delivery service, for returning critical scientific samples back to Earth. The service will be provided by the Terrestrial Return Vehicle (TRV), a small, wingless capsule that can be loaded up with samples and ejected from the airlock, guaranteeing delivery back to Earth in under 24 hours. It's a bit like a gravity-powered courier service (and coincidentally, probably the most reliable courier service in the world).
SpaceX rocket carries the first ever zero-g 3D printer to the Space Station September 22, 2014 at 9:58 am
Early Sunday morning, SpaceX mission CRS-4 lifted off from Cape Canaveral towards the International Space Station, carrying with it the first 3D printer that will operate in zero gravity. When the astronauts aboard the ISS use the 3D printer, they will become the first humans to ever manufacture goods away from planet Earth. It's not quite the Moon- or Mars-based factory that we've always dreamed of, but it's a very important first step towards manufacturing goods outside of Earth's gravity, and thus the eventual colonization and industrialization of the Solar System.
NASA picks Boeing and SpaceX to bring manned space travel back to the US September 17, 2014 at 6:45 am
Boeing and SpaceX are both winners in the race to take US astronauts into space. Boeings CST-100 and SpaceX's Dragon V2 will soon make test flights to the ISS to prove their mettle.
Astronauts find living organisms clinging to the International Space Station, and aren't sure how they got there August 22, 2014 at 1:15 pm
Russian astronauts found actual living organisms in outer space. They were clinging to the side of the International Space Station, and the astronauts aren't sure how they got there.
Every parking spot at the International Space Station is currently occupied August 14, 2014 at 6:41 am
Here's an awesome photo to start your day: The International Space Station currently has five spacecraft docked to it — the most that can be currently attached. If any of the world's space agencies, or private companies like SpaceX were to send up another spacecraft today, they'd need to circle until another parking space becomes available (which is tomorrow, incidentally).
Here's what space debris does to the Kevlar shielding protecting the International Space Station June 25, 2014 at 12:30 pm
If you've seen Gravity, you'll have noticed how a single piece of space debris can cause a cascade of destruction — the Kessler effect — that makes the entirety of space completely uninhabitable to spacecraft? Well, in the photo above, you can see the exit hole created by a tiny piece of aluminium space debris in a piece of Kevlar shielding — the same shielding that protects the manned modules of the International Space Station. Space debris is serious stuff.
NASA installs space laser on the ISS, uses it to transmit high-speed data back to Earth June 9, 2014 at 12:28 pm
NASA has successfully completed the first test of the International Space Station's new OPALS laser communications system. OPALS links the ISS to an observatory here on Earth at very high speeds (around 50 megabits per second), allowing for the real-time transmission of high-resolution video among other things. This is orders of magnitude faster than existing radio-based links, and is a significant step forward for future space exploration.
Russia will ban the US from visiting the ISS, due to Ukraine sanctions May 14, 2014 at 8:40 am
Welcome to Cold War 2, folks. Following increased diplomatic tensions over Russia's annexation of the Ukraine's Crimea, Russia is threatening to ban the US from using the International Space Station. Furthermore, and perhaps more significantly in the short term, Russia will ban the US from buying the Russian RD-180 rocket engines that are currently used by the ULA's Atlas V launcher to put the US military's satellites into space. These sanctions, issued by Russia's deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin, come in response to the US's own sanctions that restrict exports to Russia.
You can finally watch a live video feed of Earth from space, and it's awesome May 2, 2014 at 1:00 pm
After being continuously inhabited for more than 13 years, it is finally possible to log into Ustream and watch the Earth spinning on its axis in glorious HD. This video feed (embedded below) comes from from four high-definition cameras, delivered by last month's SpaceX CRS-3 resupply mission, that are attached to the outside of the International Space Station. You can open up the Ustream page at any time, and as long as it isn't night time aboard the ISS, you'll be treated to a beautiful view of the Earth from around 250 miles (400 km) up.
Boeing unveils the future of manned spaceflight: It's modern… and very blue May 1, 2014 at 2:49 pm
Boeing wants to take America back to space with the CST-100, a manned space capsule with minimalist design and space for seven.
