REMEMBER: Happy memories of Chuck's Poorhouse
The June 24 photo of Chuck's Poorhouse, courtesy of Carol Connors, brought a flood of response from readers who recognized the laid-back Bonita Beach eatery that was torn down to make way for a beachfront park.
The photo has special significance to Connors, because Chuck's is where she met her husband.
"We have now been married 31 years," said Connors. "I had been going there for years before that, also. It's neat to get people thinking back."
"I believe this week's photo is Chuck's Poorhouse restaurant," wrote Denise Wheeler. "It sat on Bonita Beach where the public restrooms now are. It was one of my father-in-law's (Nick Wallace) favorite places to go for a pizza and a beer. My cousin, Bobby Wharton, now deceased, painted a beautiful mural on the interior walls a few years before it was demolished. It was a true beach establishment, with cold beer and oftentimes, sandy floors."
Steve and Debbie Lane also recalled the unique little restaurant.
"Looks like Chuck's Poorhouse at Bonita Beach to us," they wrote. "I can remember going there to see sunsets or on occasion watch the dolphins play in the Gulf. (We were) very sad when it went away."
Longtime Bonitan and former city councilman Alex Grantt once lived just across the way at the Beach and Tennis Club. He easily recognized the beachfront structure.
"My wife and I think it's Chuck's Poorhouse, in existence for many years until the county purchased it for the parking lot," said Grantt. "One of the telltale signs is the Beach and Tennis Club building. I believe it (Chuck's) was owned by the Pastore brothers."
Tammy Brickley, who works at neighboring Doc's Beach House, remembers Chuck's because it was torn down shortly after she came to Bonita Springs 20 years ago.
Michael Lauber also recognized the landmark. "They had square pizzas, the way I remember it," he said. "It was a great place, a lot of fun."
Before moving here, Lauber and his family used to visit here with his uncle Ed, who lived in Building 1 of the Beach and Tennis Club across the street from Chuck's.
"I went there a lot with Uncle Ed," said Lauber. His uncle, now 95, lives in Princeville, Ill., but still visits Bonita.
Lauber remembers Chuck's as a quaint little place and said he was sorry to see it go.
So was Alan Glazier, who is still steamed about the grand scale of the facilities at the beach park.
"That picture is of Chuck's Poorhouse," he said. "Of course, it's where the beach park is now, what I call the Taj Mahal, where we lost a lot of parking places compared to what we used to have, plus a local restaurant and a place to go with some color. I never will forget (Lee County Commissioner) Ray Judah for doing that. I think it's one of the examples of, like I've said before, where if we don't preserve things, then we lose them."

Wonderous portrait!
Quite a serious expression in the face. I like it. With a little less intensive lip color it would have been even a little better
love her hair!
Lovely face and hair. Great portrait reference.
You are very beautiful. You are also very generous. Thank you for this wonderful reference.
O.O you're Really Beautiful, you have a non forgettable face...
nice tits
i love you...You have like everything i am looking for...
Very nice work
this is one of the many shots i liked...hope u can experiment more on lighting and more intense source of light photo...
This one of the best shots you have there
Struggling for words, which is rare - you look fantastic.
Your face is lovely, and your hair is fantastic!
Hi I'll try something with this, If you have your tripod at home and it's not much trouble I'd like to request a pose. I don't really know how to say it, something expressing more lust. More sexy, I dont like posting here as much after hearing about theft issues but I'd like to make entry to the competition you mention on your front page. Its really for an entry to digital art studies, my interview is coming up and I'm trying to build some work for it. Again I'd be really thankful if you could do this. Michael
beautiful shot..great model
Hi, I use this one... you are an great artist.
I know it's probably redundant state the obviouse but you are a stuning creature.
simply beautiful!
You're really cute!
You're really cute!
i like your cute face, and nipples

Beautiful as always. I think in Art and Photography when taking pixtures of women the breast signifies something. I don't even know if that made sense. lol But good pixture.
very good posing ... very powerfull face expression. nice lipstick and beautifull breast

So.. hungry..
- Getting my throat cut tomorrow
Literally actually, It was a year ago or so that I started wondering why I was so irritable some days and fell asleep just about any time of the day just about anywhere, so I went to the doctor and had myself checked. Turns out I got this sleeping apnoea thing where you stop breathing in intervals during the night and it can potentially kill you sooner or later as it wears out the heart and make you do really stupid things during the day due to sleep deprivation (Like breaking my finger as I attempt to jump into my bed and misses). A year later and Im finally getting my surgery done tomorrow (!).They're going to do allot of shit with my throat/mouth tomorrow so I won't exactly be in heaven the following weeks and I don't know how long I'll be doing painkillers and be to drugged up to do much of anything. Im supposed to be asleep by now but Im way too jumpy for that.
Anyhow, Ive been a member here at CA for almost two years now and it just dawned on me that even though Ive browsed this forum for so long, learned so much and gotten used to so many people around here. Ive just about not learned to know anyone or hardly made any posts myself.
Im an extremely social bugger otherwise and I hardly ever get to meet any artists in my everyday life so I really should take this great opportunity to actually say hello to all you crazy artists who keep inspiring me and whove been a part of my life for so long. Ive wanted to go to the workshops ever since I first found this place but there is so much stuff going on in my life that I havent been able to, but rest assured that I will show up on one of those things within the coming years (Keep a look out for a really tall Swede with a stupid smile on his face and a big camera in his hands, looking like he reached nirvana)
So, consider this my long due introduction and way of saying Hi everyone! and thanks for all the laughs, inspiration and for making this place a generally great community!
And of course Id like to send my humble gratitude to the guys at Massive Black for kick starting this un-stoppable snowball of artistic dreams and visions known as conceptart.org. Keep doing your thing and sooner or later youll realise that youve inspired and helped just about a whole generation of young struggling artists from all over the world.
Best regards

Hello everyone, I just got back home and I'm currently re-defining my personal understanding of the word "pain". Great fun in a "please kill me now" kind of way, I haven't eaten or slept in two days now and I'm on some freaky medication so I'm currently in a bit of a funky state of mind to say the least.
@sve: Many thanks for the support; I'll keep you posted on my adventures.
@Carnifex: Thanks man, your one of the people I feel like I already know somewhat, I've seen your stuff, your photos and even photos of you as well
@Seedling: Thanks, nice to meet you to
@moopuff: Thanks, I'll definitively start posting some stuff as soon as my head is clear enough and I got something to show
@JLAIfaro: Thanks, glad to meet you to.
@Elwell: Thanks man, my hat of to you, you've given me many laughs and things to ponder over the years.
@Hyver: Thanks, you went through the surgery as well?
@Jabo: Thanks, well I'm heavily medicated and still in a lot of pain/discomfort right now and the Doc say I'm not supposed to do anything for 10 days but I hope for a quicker recovery then that.
The faint or easily disgusted can skip the next part:
Well I've had some great adventures the last days, the most disturbing being yesterday when I against my best knowledge decided to have a peek down my throat to se how it looked. I got up from my bed and dragged my gismo on wheels with me (the rack with nutrition and such going through tubes into my hand.) I slowly stumbled to the bathroom in my sexy hospital shirt, they don't really make the shirts in sizes for guys 1,97m tall so I must have looked pretty stupid. I firmly grabbed the sink and looking in the mirror I slowly pried my mouth open as wide as I could, man that was a mistake. A, it fricking hurt, bad. And b, it looked like something from a horror movie, There where stitches everywhere and everything was just an un-even stitched mess back there. The natural primal reaction to this turns out to be vomiting and I feel my stomach starting to spasm, well I'm no rocket scientist but I realize that if I vomit right now I'm in for a really shitty experience so I fight it with everything I got, it takes about 10-15 minutes for me to breath normally again but at least I managed to stop myself from throwing up. I'd take a photo of my mess of a throat for you guys and galls If I didn't know that it would probably make me vomit and now that I'm at home and not at the hospital that would probably be an even more un-pleasant experience. Anyhow, I'll keep you guys posted on my trip to recovery.
Much love
October 19th, 2006 #11
Hey Jove, if you're on weird medicine, try doing some drawing. Not only will it take your mind off the pain for a while, but you may draw some really freakish stuff! LOL
Hang in there, buddy!

Hey man, why couldn't you just get a C-PAP machine. I have a terrible case of sleep apnea. I recently got a machine that pumps air into my lungs as I sleep. Im assuming you were given this option already? I guess its too late if not since you already got the operation, but I hope everything works out for you. It sure does suck not getting your sleep dude, and it will change your life. It did mine. God Bless and a speedy rec. to you.
I don't spellcheck...
October 19th, 2006 #13
Hey Jove, didn't see this post until today and it seems like you were able to get through surgery alright. I haven't had any serious surgery myself (only surgery I've really had was getting my wisdom teeth removed, which many probably wouldn't consider anything at all hehe) but I really feel for ya; just keep yourself occupied and I'm sure you'll start to feel better really soon get well soon and nice to meet ya!

Ill., assignors to National Cylinder Gas Company, Chicago, 111., a corporation of Delaware Application May 21, 1947, Serial No. 749,412
'7 Claims.
This invention relates to the cutting or perforating of stainless steel and other materials which are not readily cut by the use of a high pressure oxygen jet delivered along with an oxy-acetylene or other high temperature flame, but which may be effectively cut when iron or other powder which is combustible at high temperature, is delivered in finely divided form to the part to be cut or perforated, and at the point where the cutting or perforating is to be effected. A process for this general purpose is disclosed in the Harrison Patent 968,350, issued August 23, 1910.
The present invention relates particularly to the construction of the torch for delivering the high pressure oxygen, the flame forming gases,
and the powdered flux material which has the desired high combustion temperature. For present purposes that material will be referred to as finely divided iron,-iron powder or flux powder, but it will be obvious that in our improved apparatus other finely divided flux materials suitable for the purpose may be employed.
One object of the present invention is to provide an attachment or adapter which may be readily secured to and removed from a standard form of cutting torch, and by means of which the combustible powder may be delivered to the article to be cut,
A further object is to provide means whereby the powder is maintained in a free flowing condition, and in a state of agitation while passing through the adapter, so as to insure a free and uniform delivery to the point of use.
A further object. is to provide means which insures the delivery of the powder or adjuvant material between the flames which are arranged around the high pressure oxygen stream, and insures the delivery of the powder inwardly to the point of impingement of the high pressure oxygen on the article to be cut, so that it is effectively ignited and burned by the high pressure oxygen, to thereby increase the temperature of the flame, effecting the desired cutting.
In the accompanying drawings we have illustrated one embodiment of our invention, but it will be obvious that various changes in the details of construction may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the appended claims. In these drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a torch provided with an adapter and mounted on a suitable support.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section through the lower portion of the torch and the adapter attached thereto, and on the line 2-2 of Fig. 5.
Fig. 3 is a transverse section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2, and showing the top of the sleeve of the adapter.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view of the sleeve.
Fig. 5 is a view of the end of the tip and some of the adapter parts and Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a sleeve which may be employed in place of some of the adapter parts when the torch is to be used for ordinary cutting purposes.
The body portion I0 of the torch may be supported by hand or upon any suitable carriage. As illustrated, it is adjustably clamped to the end' of a carriage of the type shown in the Chouinard Patent 2,336,596, or the Mott, Chouinard & Harding Patent 2,364,645, to permit raising and lowering of the torch, but it will be evident that it might equally well be secured to any other type of carriage such as that shown in the Mott, Chouinard & Dove Patent 2,417,511, or to any other suitable support.
The torch illustrated is provided with tubes 1 I, I2 and I3 for connection to hose which deliver the high pressure oxygen, the low pressure oxygen, and the acetylene or other combustible gas, and is provided with the usual control valves. In Fig. 2 a torch head I4 is shown with sockets I5, l6 and I1 receiving the said tubes, the socket l5 being for the high pressure oxygen and the sockets l6 and I! for the low pressure oxygen and combustible gas. Within this head is secured the tip I8 which has the usual passages, the center one l9, shown in Fig. 5, being for the high pressure oxygen, and the annular row of passages 20 being for the combustible gas and low pressure oxygen, after being mixed in the tip in the conventional manner. So far as concerns these parts of the torch and tip, they may be of any suitable and well known form.
In carrying out our invention there is provided a sleeve 2| shown particularly in Fig. 4, and a jacket 22 which is separable therefrom and which encloses the sleeve.
The sleeve as shown in Fig. 4 has a peripheral flange 23 at its upper end, a cylindrical body portion 24, a somewhat reduced neck portion 25 between the flange and the body, and a tapered or conical terminal portion 26 provided with an annular row of grooves 2'! extending lengthwise thereof and forming passages for the powder.
The external diameter of the body portion 24 is slightly less than the internal diameter of the body of the jacket, so as to leave a substantially cylindrical passage 28 therebetween, and the lower end of the jacket has a conical portion 29 which snugly fits the conical portion 26 of the sleeve and forms an outer wall for the grooves 21.
The number of grooves 21 corresponds to the number of flame outlets 20 at the end of the tip, and means are provided for insuring that each passage 27 comes approximately midway between two adjacent fiar'ne outlets 29, as shown particularly in Fig. 5, that is to say, each of the converging passages 21 for adjuvant material in the sleeve are radially and laterally offset from each of the adjacent passages 20 for combustible gaseous mixtures in the tip l8.
The flange 23 at the upper end of the sleeve has helically inclined passages 39: which establish communication between the annular passage 28' between the jacket 22 and the sleeve 2|, and an annular passage 3! between the torch tip and a sleeve 32 which at its upper end is internally threaded to screw onto the torch head t4 and locked in place by a lock nut 35. This sleeve at one side is provided with an inlet 33 to which may be connected a conduit as for the finely divided material. The upper end of the jacket terminates below the under side of the flange 23 on the sleeve, and the upper side: of. the flange engages a shoulder 3? on the tip. The lower end oi the sleeve 32 is externally threaded, and there is provided a nut 35 having an inturned flange which engages the under side of a flange as on the jacket. Thus, upon assembling the parts as shown in Fig. 2, and tightening the nut 35, the
nut acts through the flange 315 of the jacket to hold the conical lower portion of the jacket tightly against the conical grooved portion of the sleeve and hold the flange 2-3 of the sleeve tightly against the shoulder 3'! of the tip, and thereby clamp the sleeve and jacket in place, and hold the tip tightly against its seat in the torch head.
In order to insure that the passages 2'! are properly oriented or staggered in respect to the passages 26, any suitable means is provided which will preventthe clamping of the parts, except when the sleeve is rotated to the desired position. As shown, the upper end surface of the sleeve is provided with. a pair of radial grooves 38, and the torch tip below the shoulder 3! is provided with a pair of pins 39 which are spaced apart angularly to the same distance as the grooves 38 and which together constitute interengaging means. Thus the sleeve can be properly seated against the end of the torch tip only with the I two in the proper relative rotational positions,
and which correspond to the desired positioning of the passages 2? in respect to the passages 29. The pins also prevent the interchange of various sleeves and tips which may have different numbers of preheat and flux passages.
The adjuvant material or powder, having a high combustion temperature, and which is pref erably finely divided iron, is preferably carried along by a current of nitrogen, is delivered through a conduit 43 provided with a suitable valve M, and detachably connected to the conduit 34 fixed on the sleeve 32.
In operation the high pressure oxygen and. the
. flame producing gases are delivered and controlled until it reaches the outlet passages 21. From these it is delivered as streams or jets between the flames at the several outlets 2i], and inwardly toward the stream of high pressure oxygen as it emerges from the torch tip into free space from theoutlet 19, So that they pass with the high pressure oxygen directly against the article to be cut. The carrier gas may be nitrogen, but preferably is a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen, as disclosed and claimed in a copending application, Serial No. 294,083.
It will be noted that the novel features of the present invention reside primarily in the provision of parts which may be readily attached to or removed from a standard cutting torch. Upon removing the sleeves 32 and 2|, the jacket 22 and the nut 35 from the torch head, an ordinary tip clamping nut may be substituted, which will screw on the torch head l4 and which will engage an upper shoulder 42 and hold the latter in place, and the: apparatus may be used as an ordinary cutting torch.
In case it is not desired to remove the sleeve 32, the nut 35 may be removed together with the sleeve 2! and jacket 22, and a sleeve 53, shown in Fig. 6 may he slipped up over the torch tip to engage the shoulder 42 of the latter, and the nut 35 then replaced to engage the lower end of the sleeve 43. Thus the conversion of the torch from a form suitable for ordinary cutting to a form suitable ior cutting stainless steel, may be very quickly and easily effected.
Having thus described our invention what we claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
l. A cutting torch having a cutting tip provided with a central high pressure oxygen passage and an annular row of passages for combustible gaseous mixtures, a sleeve encircling the delivery end portion of said tip and having an annular row of converging discharge passages at the delivery end, and interengaging means between said sleeve and said tip for insuring the staggered position of the passages oi" the two annular rows,
2. An adapter for application to a cutting torch to facilitate the cutting of stainless steel, said adapter including a sleeve for encircling the terminal portion of thetorch tip and provided with a flange at the upper end, a jacket for encircling said sleeve and having a flange, said jacket and sleeve being spaced to form flux passages, and a nut for engaging the flange of said jacket for holding said jacket and sleeve in position, the flange of said sleeve having passages therethrough and the opposite end of said sleeve having converging grooves.
3. An adapter for application to a cutting torch to facilitate the cutting of stainless steel, said adapter including a sleeve for encircling the terminal portion of the torch tip andprovided with a flange at the upper end and a jacket for encircling said sleeve and seating on the lower portion of said sleeve, a nut for detachably engaging the tip and for holding said jacket and sleeve in position, the flange of said sleeve having passages therethrough and the opposite end of said sleeve having converging grooves, and means for insuring a selected orientation of said sleeve in respect to said tip.
4. A cutting torch having a tip provided with a central oxygen passage and an annular row of combustible gas passages, an adapter encircling said tip and having a series of passages converging at their delivery ends, the number of converging passages in said adapter being the same as the number of combustible gas passages in said tip, and means for securing said adapter on said tip and insuring the staggered positioning of one set of passages with those of the other set.
5. A cutting torch having a tip provided with a central oxygen passage and an annular row of combustible gas passages, an adapter encircling said tip and having a series of passages converging at their delivery ends, the number of converging passages in said adapter being the same as the number of combustible gas passages in said tip, and means for securing said adapter on said tip and insuring the staggered positioning of one set of passages with those of the other set, said means including an interengaging projection and groove.
6. A cutting torch having a cutting tip .provided with a central high pressure oxygen passage and an annular row of passages for combustible gaseous mixtures, a sleeve encircling at least the delivery end portion of said tip and having an annular row of converging discharge passages for adjuvant material at the delivery end of said sleeve, and means for insuring said sleeve and said tip against relative movement with each of the pasages for adjuvant material in said sleeve being radially and laterally ofiset with respect to each of the adjacent passages for combustible gaseous mixtures in said tip.

Anti-virus Products Mostly Ignore Windows Security Features
A good read here
Among the anti-virus products that used neither ASLR nor DEP were AVAST Home Edition, AVG Internet Security 9.0, BitDefender Internet Security 2010, ESET Smart Security, F-Secure Internet Security, Norton Internet Security 2010 (*see below), Panda Internet Security 2010 and Trend Micro Internet Security 2010.
Microsoft Security Essentials was the only product that used both ASLR and DEP consistently on Windows Vista (although interestingly it does not invoke DEP on Windows XP). Other anti-virus suites I tested used either ASLR or DEP (or both), but only in some of the applications that make up the suite. For example, McAfee Internet Securitys mcagent.exe program runs both ASLR and DEP, while four other executable processes spawned by the program ran DEP but not ASLR (since these tests were run, McAfee has changed the trial version of MIS available on its site, and the company sent me a screen shot that shows DEP and ASLR on all running processes in that version).
Similarly, I found that the anti-virus suite from Avira ran its main avguard.exe program in ASLR mode but did not use DEP. The rest of the program files that ship with this product run neither ASLR nor DEP. Kaspersky Internet Security had DEP enabled on just one process (the browser plug-in), and did not invoke ASLR with any program components.

In dealings with the West, Erdogan holds all the cards
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – President Tayyip Erdogan's tightening grip on power is likely to meet little more than symbolic resistance from the West next year, as Turkey's G20 presidency and the fight against Islamic State trump concerns about a slide towards authoritarianism.
Critics at home and abroad see Erdogan as an increasingly unpredictable leader, bent on a more powerful presidency and revenge on his political enemies. They fear he is taking Turkey ever further from Western standards on rule of law and free speech.
Factbox: Turkish government's battle with U.S.-based Muslim cleric Gülen
Turkish police have raided media outlets close to U.S.-based Muslim cleric Fethullah Gülen, in what President Tayyip Erdogan defended as a necessary response to "dirty operations" by the government's political enemies.
Pope says Islamist violence in Syria, Iraq is a 'grave sin against God'
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Pope Francis said Islamic militants were carrying out a "profoundly grave sin against God" in Syria and Iraq, calling on Sunday for inter-religious dialogue and action against poverty to help end conflicts there.
The pope spoke on the last day of his weekend trip to Turkey, which is sheltering nearly 2 million refugees from Syria, thousands of Christians among them.
Pope to urge tolerance in Turkey visit as Middle East wars rage
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Pope Francis begins a visit to Turkey on Friday with the delicate mission of strengthening ties with Muslim leaders while condemning violence against Christians and other minorities in the Middle East.
His three-day trip comes as Islamic State insurgents have captured swathes of Iraq and Syria just over Turkey's southern borders, declaring an Islamic caliphate and killing or driving out Shi'ite Muslims, Christians and others who do not share their ultra-radical brand of Sunni Islam.
Turkey, U.S. ease strains on Islamic State but differences remain
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Turkey and the United States smoothed over some differences in the fight against Islamic State during a weekend visit by U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, but the talks heralded little in the way of deeper military cooperation between the NATO allies.
Turkey has been a reluctant partner in the U.S.-led coalition against Islamic State, refusing to take a frontline military role despite its 1,200 km (750-mile) border with Iraq and Syria and thereby intensifying Western concern that it is a weak link in the struggle against the insurgents.
Turkey seeks to bolster global influence with G20 role
ISTANBUL/ANKARA (Reuters) – Turkey aims to use its approaching presidency of the G20 to promote its image as a global economic power and alleviate a sense of a country increasingly isolated on the world stage and buffeted by conflict on its southern frontiers.
Ankara takes over the G20 presidency in December, its relations with Washington and Europe strained by its reluctance to take a frontline role against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq. President Tayyip Erdogan's tightening grip on power has also raised concern in Europe and the United States.
Turkey warns of Syrian threat to Aleppo, fears new refugee influx
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has accused Syrian forces of committing massacres in and around Aleppo and said Turkey would face a major new refugee crisis if Syria's second city fell into their hands.
As U.S. warplanes bomb Islamic State forces in parts of Syria, President Bashar al-Assad's military has intensified its campaign against some rebel groups in the west and north that Washington sees as allies, including in and around Aleppo.
Turkey vows support for besieged Syrian town, but no military pledge
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Turkey will do what it can to prevent the predominantly Kurdish town of Kobani, near its border with Syria, falling to Islamic State insurgents, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said late on Thursday, but stopped short of committing to military action.
Hours before Davutoglu's comments, parliament gave the government powers to order cross-border military incursions against Islamic State, and to allow foreign coalition forces to launch similar operations from Turkish territory.
Turkey, frustrated with West, clings to fading vision for the Middle East
ANKARA/ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Frustrated by Western failure to heed his advice in Syria and Iraq and still smarting over the collapse of the Muslim Brotherhood, Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu makes no apology for a foreign policy that has left his country isolated.
His dream of a Middle East with political Islam, the Muslim Brotherhood and Turkey at its heart seems to be fading as chaos in Syria and Iraq threatens its borders and diplomatic ties with Egypt, the Arab world's most populous nation, remain broken.
Hesitant Turkey seeks mandate for military action against Islamic State
ISTANBUL (Reuters) – Turkey is likely to gain parliamentary approval for cross-border military operations in Syria and Iraq this week as Islamic State insurgents threaten its territory, but will be hesitant to send in troops without an internationally-enforced no-fly zone.
Turkish tanks and armored vehicles took up positions on hills overlooking the besieged Syrian border town of Kobani on Monday as shelling by the Sunni Muslim militants intensified and stray fire hit Turkish soil.

Fantastic dinner at Cinnamon Soho - menu had great flavours and variety and every dish was just delicious!

from London
From the same stock as London favourites The Cinnamon Club and Cinnamon Kitchen, Cinnamon Soho offers innovative Indian cuisine. Set over 2 levels, an al fresco terrace features edgy brushed steel and racing-car-blue leather. Cinnamon Soho was a winner in the Best Menu category at the esteemed London Restaurant Festival Awards 2012.
Crafted with the knowing eye of executive chef Vivek Singh, the Cinnamon Soho menu offers contemporary Indian recipes, with classic British accents weaved throughout. A bespoke window in the Cinnamon Soho dining room offers views onto the chefs creating dishes like Keralan seafood pie, ox cheek vindaloo, or lassi panna cotta with tamarind-glazed figs.
Bursting with exotic and refreshing blends, a prized selection of cocktails at Cinnamon Soho London includes a subtly spiced cinnamon bellini, or a cool garden mojito. An eclectic assortment of bottles make up the wine list, with many available by the glass or carafe.
Featuring slick, Scandinavian-style design, Cinnamon Soho restaurant is perfectly in tune with the edginess of nearby Carnaby Street. Oxford Circus Tube Station is a 5-minute walk away.

Fantastic dinner at Cinnamon Soho - menu had great flavours and variety and every dish was just delicious!
(**** 27 May 2015 by Panna Fricker from London
Not great I'm afraid! Requested high chair but not provided despite advising us on the way. Service was slow. Should've been offered a selection of teas with the afternoon tea we had but only one was provided and was cold. This was my second bad experience so cannot say I would recommend. The manager offered comp cocktails which no one liked, couldn't drink and were charged on bill. Gutted and disappointed as was really looking forward to Indian afternoon tea with my friends.

Great food, good service. Would definitely recommend the 8 course menu - a great chance to try lots of new things.

Had the 8 course tasting menu and it was absolutely fantastic. Huge amount of food, too much really! One of our party had several food allergies so they created a menu just for her. Superb we will definitely be back.

Great deal, food was lovely and service excellent.

The pros- we had the tasting menu which had some lovely unusual dishes and was good value for money. One of the staff (?a manager) noticed that I was looking around, came over, asked if I was cold and immediately shut the door. Cons- one dish was changed from pork belly to ribs with no explanation. The service which started well got slower- took ages to get the bill!

Had the 8 course set menu and it was great. Staff were friendly. Good find and would go back

Beautiful delicious food, great attentive service in very pleasant surroundings. Not your typical curry but fabulously aromatic and spicy. Had 2 course dinner menu - very good value for money.

- //The Dagons
While a two-gendered duo might look suspiciously calculated at first glance, the Dagons have been plying their trade for the better part of a decade now (Reverse is their fourth album), so accusations of cashing in on trends would ring hollow. With Karie Jacobson on vocals and guitar and Drew Kowalski on drums (adding color with electronics and sitar, as well), the Dagons bash out a trusty, honest brand of garage rock. From straightforward ravers like the title track or "Not Enough" to the choppy strums of roughhouse folk ditty "Helium", the band plows ahead with confidence and personality. Jacobson's guitar prowess is a bit limited, as her rare solos reveal, but she sings with languid authority, and the absence of a bass is never conspicuous, as Kowalski's thick wet thwacks hold down the low end nicely. A few noise-and-effects squall tracks pad out the album, but Reverse is an impressive piece of work from a band that deserves more attention than they've yet received.

by James Garay, ARC
"In the fall of 1994, the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Command (TACOM) awarded MEAM [Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics] a three-year, $7.5-million research grant to establish an Automotive Research Center (ARC) at the U-M."1
Twenty-one years later, the ARC, which operates as a consortium of six universities[2] collaborating with partners from both industrial and government sectors, gathered once again on the University of Michigan's North Campus for its 21st Annual Program Review. Professionals representing each of the three aforementioned domains (academia, government, industry) comprised the event's nearly 300 attendees.
This year's event was concentrated around the theme of shared-control and autonomous vehicles, building off of the main emphasis of the ARC, which lies in the simulation and modeling of ground vehicles.
The Annual Program Review brings the ARC's research community together with Army researchers and engineers from industry. This contingent works side by side to review the year's work, deliberate on the timeline of ongoing projects, and give a weather eye to tomorrow's automotive challenges. The event's atmosphere is a dynamic balance between a network of friendships and a professional exchange of information and ideas. It carries the air of a family reunion in bringing all of the ARC's university partners together, but remains focused on the goal of sharing the latest research developments.
In any case, the environment was one of excitement, as the University of Michigan's 234- seat Chesebrough Auditorium was packed to standing room only capacity by the conclusion of the opening remarks.
Dr. David Gorsich, Chief Scientist at TARDEC3, kicked off the presentations with his discussion titled, "The Future of Army Mobility," wherein he explained the brutal, rugged realities that Army vehicles must be able to conquer. While overcoming these terrain-oriented challenges requires a focus on vehicle mobility, no compromises can be made in other important vehicle components such as passenger safety and protection, as well as payload and cargo requirements. With that in mind, the Army's push toward fully autonomous vehicles is driven by the potential of autonomy to bring improvements to vehicle safety and mobility, while still meeting the necessary payload requirements.
This movement, which has inspired much of the recent research done with autonomous vehicles, was stark motivation for the detailed case study that followed, "No Driver? No Problem: Mobility Across the Autonomy Spectrum in Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs)," which evaluated the mobility performance of UGVs between different levels of autonomous operation.
The study itself was multi-leveled, looking at three degrees of autonomy4 in three different types of vehicles5. In assessing the trade-offs associated with each degree of autonomy, the study concentrated on the analysis of communication-response lags in teleoperation, negotiating control priorities between humans and controllers in shared control systems, and the response of fully autonomous operation in new, unknown settings, among others. Currently, we are operating in the realm of semi-autonomous, human-robot interactive vehicles, and still have a long way before full autonomy is operational, says Dr. Paramsothy Jayakumar, Senior Research Scientist at TARDEC and case study contributor. This accentuates the importance of the control priority characteristic in shared control systems; namely, when is it alright for the robot to take over control from the human, and vice-versa? This question affects vehicle operators and passengers at all levels, from the soldier navigating the ever changing landscapes of war to the nervous sixteen-year old behind the wheel for the first time.
While many people are understandably wary of the idea of submitting their own control (especially that of a moving vehicle) to a robot, would their concerns be quelled if these robots could prevent accidents? If they could take the wheel at times of distress and create close calls out of situations that previously would've ended in disaster? If they could sense its human operator falling asleep and seamlessly continue driving while trying to awaken whomever is behind the wheel? If they could detect a land mine and communicate its position to surrounding vehicles, so that those vehicles would, without hesitation or second guessing, reroute to a safer path?
Before these questions could be answered, Dr. Robert Ambrose, Division Chief of the Software, Robotics and Simulation Division at NASA's Johnson Space Center and the opening keynote speaker, took to the podium with a related and pertinent topic. His invigorating presentation of "NASA's Human-Robotic Systems" had attendees passing around a sign-up sheet titled "Wants to Work for NASA." The project, as Dr. Ambrose described, has roots that extend back to 1969, with limited human mobility being an issue from the outset of our very first moon landing. The Human Robotic Systems (HRS) project is working to implement advanced6 robotics in space to handle various tasks that will alleviate the human operational workload.
Dr. Hubertus Tummescheit, CEO of Modelon Inc.7, the second keynote speaker, spoke from the perspective of a small, extremely successful software company. He unveiled Modelon's work with vehicle simulations, which respond in real time and do not compromise the model's fidelity. This is only possible, Dr. Tummescheit described, with the use of a high level language like Modelica8 in conjunction with the Functional Mockup Interface (FMI), which is a standardized, tool independent medium used for the exchange and co-simulation of models on both system and component levels9,10.
The groundbreaking nature of this work compelled one audience member to share that this specific branch of technology was discussed as a distant dream at this same event ten years ago, and thought to not even be possible at the event fifteen years ago.
With the opening keynote presentations focusing on the innovative works of today, Dr. Chris Atkinson, Program Director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) and the third and final keynote speaker, urged the ARC researchers to think past even the limits that we have already set for the future. In discussing ARPA-E's newest program area, which targets engine and powertrain technologies, Dr. Atkinson stressed that autonomy enables us to push the limits of engine fuel efficiency, even beyond the 54.5 mile per gallon fleet average fuel economy requirement set for automotive companies to be met by 2025.
In addition to the speakers mentioned, the two-day event included other presentations from TARDEC representatives, ARC Researchers (from the University of Michigan and elsewhere), and the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute, as well as project poster viewing sessions, a teleoperated vehicle demonstration (see right), the presentation of a second case study, and laboratory tours.
The 22nd Annual ARC Program Review is scheduled for May 25-26, 2016, and will be held on The University of Michigan's North Campus in Ann Arbor.

A new technique developed by a team of researchers led by Eric Stach at Brookhaven National Laboratory and Anatoly Frenkel at Yeshiva University reveals atomic-scale changes during catalytic reactions in real time and under real operating conditions. An open access paper on the work is published in the journal Nature Communications.
The team used a new microfabricated catalytic reactor to combine synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy for an unprecedented portrait of a common chemical reaction. The results demonstrate a powerful operando—i.e., in a working state—technique that is generalizable to quantitative operando studies of complex systems using a wide variety of X-ray and electron-based experimental probes. This may have a tremendous impact on research on catalysts, batteries, fuel cells, and other major energy technologies.
We tracked the dynamic transformations of a working catalyst, including single atoms and larger structures, during an active reaction at room temperature. This gives us unparalleled insight into nanoparticle structure and would be impossible to achieve without combining two complementary operando techniques.—Eric Stach, BNL, co-author
Schematic of experimental cell. The catalyst is confined between two silicon nitride windows with the reacting gas mixture flowing through the system. Arrows show the direction of the electron beam and incident X-ray beam. In the X-ray absorption experiment, all types of Pt species are probed (shown by a green cone). In the STEM experiment, only particles larger than ~1 nm are detectable (shown by a dark blue cone). Li et al. Click to enlarge.
To prove the efficacy of their micro-reactor, the scientists tracked the performance of a platinum catalyst during the conversion of ethylene to ethane, a model reaction relevant to many industrial synthesis processes. They conducted X-ray studies at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS) and electron microscopy at the Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN), both DOE Office of Science User Facilities.
The size, shape, and distribution of catalysts affect their efficiency and durability. Now that we can track those parameters throughout the reaction sequence, we can better determine the ideal design of future catalysts—especially those that drive energy-efficient reactions without using expensive and rare materials like platinum.—Ralph Nuzzo, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, co-author
In transmission electron microscopy (TEM), a focused electron beam passes through the sample and captures images of the nanoparticles within. This is usually performed in a pristine environment—often an inactive, low-pressure vacuum—but the micro-reactor allowed the TEM to operate in the presence of an atmosphere of reactive gases.
With TEM, we take high-resolution pictures of the particles to directly see their size and distribution. But with the micro-reactor, some signals were too small to detect. Particles smaller than a single nanometer were hidden behind what we call the resolution curtain of the technique.—Eric Stach
Another technique was needed to peer behind the curtain and reveal the full reaction story: X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS).
In XAS, a beam of X-rays bombards the catalyst sample and deposits energy as it passes through the micro-reactor. The sample then emits secondary X-rays, which are measured to identify its chemical composition—in this instance, the distribution of platinum particles.
The XAS and TEM data, analyzed together, let us calculate the numbers and average sizes of not one, but several different types of catalysts. Running the tests in an operando condition lets us track broad changes over time, and only the combination of techniques could reveal all catalytic particles. Everything was exquisitely controlled at both NSLS and CFN, including precise measurements of the progress of the catalytic reaction. For the first time, the operando approach was used to correlate data obtained by different techniques at the same stages of the reaction.—Anatoly Frenkel, Yeshiva University, co-author
A relatively straightforward mathematical approach allowed them to deduce the total number of ultra-small particles missing in the TEM data. The researchers took the full XAS data, which incorporates particles of all sizes, and removed the TEM results covering particles larger than one nanometer—the remainder fills in that crucial sub-nanometer gap in our knowledge of catalyst size and distribution during each step of the reaction, Frenkel said.
In the past, scientists would look at data before and after the reaction under model conditions, especially with TEM, and make educated guesses. Now we can make definitive statements.—Eric Stach

The collaboration has already extended this operando micro-reactor approach to incorporate two additional techniques—infrared and Raman spectroscopy—and plans to introduce other complex and complementary X-ray and electron probe techniques over time.
NSLS ended its 32-year experimental run in the fall of 2014, but its successor—the just-opened National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II)—is 10,000 times brighter and promises to rapidly advance operando science.
Each round of data collection took six hours at NSLS, but will take just minutes at NSLS-II. Through Laboratory Directed Research and Development funding, we will be part of the initial experiments at the Submicron Resolution X-ray (SRX) Spectroscopy beamline this summer, dramatically increasing the time resolution of the experiments and letting us track changes in a more dynamic fashion. And that's just one of the NSLS-II beamlines where we plan to deploy this technique.—Eric Stach
The ethylene to ethane reaction happens at room temperature, but other new micro-reactors can operate at up to 800 ˚C—more than hot enough for most catalytic reactions—and will increase the versatility and applicability of the approach.
The protocol reported here is general and can be applied to a broad class of mechanistic studies of catalytic reactions mediated by functional nanomaterials. This correlated, operando approach provides insights into the dynamic structural attributes of active catalytic materials over a range of characteristic sizes extending from single atoms to clusters of several nanometres in size.—Li et al.
In the near future, this same micro-reactor approach will be used to explore other crucial energy frontiers, including batteries and fuel cells.

A group of University of Wisconsin-Madison engineers and a collaborator from China have developed a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) that harvests energy from a car's rolling tire friction. An innovative method of reusing energy, the nanogenerator ultimately could provide automobile manufacturers a new way to squeeze greater efficiency out of their vehicles.
The TENG is a novel energy harvesting device to convert mechanical energy into electricity based on the universally known triboelectric principle—i.e., the generation of an electric charge resulting from the contact or rubbing together of two dissimilar objects. Specifically, the nanogenerator relies on the triboelectric effect to harness energy from the changing electric potential between the pavement and a vehicle's wheels.
The researchers reported their development in a paper in the journal Nano Energy.
The friction between the tire and the ground consumes about 10 percent of a vehicle's fuel. That energy is wasted. So if we can convert that energy, it could give us very good improvement in fuel efficiency.—Xudong Wang, corresponding author
The nanogenerator relies on an electrode integrated into a segment of the tire—a single-electrode TENG (S-TENG). When this part of the tire surface comes into contact with the ground, the friction between those two surfaces ultimately produces an electrical charge.
During initial trials, Wang and his colleagues used a toy car with LED lights to demonstrate the concept. They attached an electrode to the wheels of the car, and as it rolled across the ground, the LED lights flashed on and off. The movement of electrons caused by friction was able to generate enough energy to power the lights, supporting the idea that energy lost to friction can actually be collected and reused.
The electric output of the S-TENG-on-wheel monotonically increased with the increase of the moving speed and weight load of the wheel. The maximum instantaneous power was obtained to be 1.79 mW at a load resistance of 10 MΩ, corresponding to the highest energy conversion efficiency of 10.4%. Multiple S-TENGs were implemented to the tires of a toy vehicle and instantaneously powered 6 commercial green light emitting diodes (LEDs) while the vehicle was moving on the ground. This successful demonstration provides a promising solution to scavenge the wasted friction energy from rolling tires, which may improve the fuel efficiency or the cruising ability of electric vehicles.—Mao et al.
Wang estimates about a 10% increase in the average vehicle's gas mileage given 50% friction energy conversion efficiency.

Four additional cities—Amsterdam, Lima, Catalonia (Barcelona) and Rome—signed up to the Global Clean Bus Declaration at the 1st global Clean Bus Summit in London.
The Global Clean Bus Declaration, developed by the Mayor of London Boris Johnson in partnership with the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, launched in Buenos Aires in March 2015 with 20 original signatories. Bus manufacturers including BYD, Volvo, Wright Bus, Optare, Mercedes, Evo Bus, and Alexander Dennis attended the London summit and committed to supporting cities in delivering fleets of new ultra-low emission buses. The World Bank and Green Investment Bank have also signed up to this commitment.
Mayor Johnson, the host of the London summit, also announced that the first purely electric double-decker bus, built by BYD, will enter passenger service in London this year. The Mayor confirmed that all new buses joining central London's fleet are now ULEZ-compliant, delivering important air quality improvements now.
The new electric double-decker trial will see the zero-emission electric double-deck buses manufactured by BYD enter service on route 16 from October, running between Cricklewood and Victoria Station.
London will also shortly be welcoming two Irizar-manufactured electric single-deck buses. These new models join eight single-deck electric buses manufactured by Optare and BYD which have been used successfully in London's fleet since 2013. The Capital's first pure electric bus route, the 312—which runs between Norwood and South Croydon—will also be created later this year.
Since 2008, London has rolled out more than 1,300 hybrid electric buses, retrofitted more than 1,400 buses to reduce their emissions by up to 88% and developed the New Routemaster, one of the cleanest double deck buses of its type in the world. (Earlier post.) There will be 800 New Routemasters on London's streets by 2016 and they will reduce CO2 emissions in the Capital by around 27,500 tonnes a year.
This is part of the Mayor's plan to halve NOx emissions from the bus fleet by the end of his term in office in 2016, compared to 2008. Cleaner buses have contributed to important steps forward in air quality for Londoners, including halving the number of Londoners living in areas above nitrogen dioxide limits, and a reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions by 20% and emissions of particulate matter down by 15%.
As part of his Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) proposals, Mayor Johnson has committed that by 2020 all 300 single-deck buses in central London will be zero emission at tailpipe. Furthermore, all 3,300 double deck buses in central London will be Euro VI electric hybrid, with the exception of a small number of Euro V Routemasters which nearly meet the Euro VI standard thanks to their superior design.
In order for there to be enough buses in the fleet to meet these requirements by 2020, TfL has to start procuring these buses now. Accordingly, the Mayor confirmed at the summit that all new buses joining the central London fleet are now ULEZ-compliant delivering vital emissions benefits well before the 2020 introduction date. This means the buses operating in central London will have to be either zero emission at tailpipe (single deck) or hybrid-electric (double-deck), and will be amongst the cleanest buses in the world.
The capital has also pioneered new technologies such as hydrogen and electric buses. As part of these trials, TfL will be piloting inductive charging technology from October this year. This means buses will be able to wirelessly charge their batteries while they wait at bus stands. The technology will be trialled on three extended range diesel electric hybrid buses in east London on route 69—which runs between Canning Town and Walthamstow bus stations.
Reductions in capital costs for new technologies such as electric and hydrogen buses will be key in achieving their wider deployment. The clear commitment embodied in the Declaration by more than 24 cities and 10 non-C40 supporting cities to introducing ultra-low emission buses into their fleets will help demonstrate the demand needed to boost supply and affordability.
Growing amounts of waste put an increasing burden on the climate, particularly in newly industrialising countries, where greenhouse gas emissions are rising, according to a new study for the German environment agency. EurActiv.de reports
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified the common herbicide 2.4-Dichlorophenoxyacet acid as "possibly carcinogenic to humans". EurActiv France reports.
The Committee on Climate Change has published its first report in the new Parliament about progress towards meeting targets to mitigate climate change. The Committee says that urgent action needed now to avoid increasing costs and impacts of climate change in the UK

Cannes: Alanis Morissette Cast in Kickstarter Project
Irish-Belgian co-production "The Price of Desire" is about architect and designer Eileen Gray and her relationship with Le Corbusier.
CANNES - Alanis Morissette has been cast in The Price of Desire, a project about architect and designer Eileen Gray that is also tapping into the current Kickstarter craze.
The partners on Saturday also said in a statement released here that Shannyn Sossamon has been cast in the lead role. She will play Gray, with Swiss actor Vincent Perez playing her Swiss/French nemesis Le Corbusier, who she falls in love with. Canadian actress and singer Morissette will play Gray's lover Marisa Damia.
The plot focuses on the relationship between Gray and Le Corbusier and how it affected the evolution of modern architecture.
Mary McGuckian is directing the film, with her EG Film Productions Ltd., Lightstream Pictures and Saga Film producing.
The Irish-Belgian co-production will be distributed by Entertainment One in Canada.
The production has also launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise money for the restoration of Gray's E1027 Villa in Roquebrune Cap Martin, where part of the movie will be filmed. It is set to open to the public after the completion of principle photography, producers said.
"Eileen Gray's evolution as an artist to recognition as a major influence on a century of minimalist and modernist design and architecture has resonance and relevance today," said Lightstream producer Garrett Kelleher.
"Eileen Gray's right to be recognized as one of the most influential designers of the modern era may no longer be in dispute following the recent retrospective of her work at The Pompidou, but the insidious chauvinism to which her legacy was subjected in her lifetime is a salutary tale to all visual artists of the female gender," said McGuckian.
