Models in the movies

Alan started building model kits, but they played it off as an immature pastime. Both Charlie and Jake made fun of him for it.
They showed him building a 78 Firebird, and later a Mystery Machine at the kitchen table. It was obvious from the way he was handling stuff he wasn't actually doing anything.
On his nightstand he had a row of cars, and after an argument with Rose, he ends up with a Trans Am glued to his crotch. It looks like they used a 1/18 die-cast car for that shot.
Overall it was kinda insulting they way they portrayed it as a hobby for immature people/kids.

In the Big Bang Theory until Wolowitz and Bernadette got married, he had an AMT USS Enterprise (1701-D) hanging from his ceiling.

Not a movie, but the show Mayberry RFD with Ken Berry (late 60's ?) had an episode where his tv son built a model of the car that another adult on the show( think it was a guest star for that one episode) had. I really remember that since I was about the same age as the kid in the show and was really building models then. Do not remember what the car was though. I do remember thinking that the Ken Berry character seemed a little jealous.

In the movie Independence Day with Will Smith there is a scene where I think new York is being blown up. It is obvious they are blowing model cars down the street to simulate real cars being blown away by the alien blast.
My Favorite is THX 1138 by George Lucas. The spaceship has a bomb that gets periodically lowered out of the bomb bay. It is an AMT Fruehauf Trailer with a bunch of strange parts attached to the bottom of it! This movie was done while he was in film school. He commemorated it by using the movie name for the license plate of Milner's coupe shortened by one digit to THX 138.

is it possible that you have THX1138 confused with the movie called Dark Star?
I may be mistaken but I don't recall hearing that THX1138 had any space scenes.

I remember reading or seeing many of those Independence day models being sold.

Back with more. From the 1959 classic The Giant Gila Monster, a rare sight: Promos that haven't begun to warp yet, especially the PMC '58 Ford wagon, AMT '59 Buick and Pontiac, a Hubley (?) diecast MGTD plus the ancient Monogram '32 Ford kit (note the seam running down the deck lid) with fenders, hood and exhaust modified to match the 1/1 car in the movie:

Well, lets see.
We have a ton of model airplanes on sticks in Top Gun. My friend Skip Samples built quite a few of them for the real program and some where used in the movie!
An old episode of Starsky and Hutch has one of the bad guys building an AMT Rat Packer Nova with only glue. Nice white and chrome model!

I may be mistaken but I don't recall hearing that THX1138 had any space scenes.
THX 1138 wasn't a space movie, but it was a science fiction allegory in the distant future with robots resembling Star Wars storm troopers, etc. It was originally a student film made by George Lucas at USC film school, then re-made with financing of a major studio. "Dark Star" was a whole other deal that was actually more influential. This entry from Wikipedia is a hoot:
Director John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon wrote the screenplay. Six years later, the basic "Beachball with Claws" subplot of the film was reworked from comedy to horror,[1] and became the basis (along with an unpublished story about gremlins aboard a B-17) for the O'Bannon-scripted science fiction horror classic, Alien.[1][3]
Working on an estimated $60,000 budget, Carpenter and O'Bannon had to make production design from scratch. In the "elevator" sequence the bottom of the elevator is actually rolling on the floor. The device used to roll the elevator base was a Moviola camera dolly normally used on the small sound stage in the old USC Cinema building (a former horse stable). The steering arm of the dolly can be seen in the "elevator's" underside. Talby's starsuit backpack is made from Styrofoam packing material - probably from a TV set - and his spacesuit chestplate is made from a muffin tray. The double rows of large buttons on the bridge consoles are ice cube trays illuminated from beneath. Sergeant Pinback's video diary is an 8-track tape and the machine he uses to read it and record it is a microfiche reader. O'Bannon also starred in the film in the role of Sgt. Pinback.
Special effects[edit]
Much of the special effects seen in the movie were done by Dan O'Bannon, ship design by Ron Cobb, model work by O'Bannon and Greg Jein, and animation was by Bob Greenberg.[citation needed]
The bombs are made from an AMT 1/25 scale semi-trailer kit and parts of a 1/12th scale model car kit; "Matra", the name of the car brand, can be seen on some parts in some shots.[4] The space suits are made to resemble the space suit of the Mattel action figure "Major Matt Mason", which was used in slightly modified form as a miniature for effects shots. Cobb drew the original design for the "Dark Star" ship on a napkin while they were eating at the International House of Pancakes.
The film featured the first hyperspace sequence to show the effect of stars rushing past the Dark Star vessel in a tunnel-effect (due to superluminal velocity) which was used in Star Wars three years later.

I saw that flick the other day, but I can't remember what the vehicle was and no amount of googling is finding it for me. I was thinking a Dodge.
Posted 29 December 2013 - 10:14 AM
Just remembered this one - the 1966 TV show Thunderbirds, which used a lot of model cars as miniatures, especially the Monogram '58 T-bird. Here's the IMCDb page:

He also had a 1/18 die-cast Pennzoil Indycar on top of a dresser.

Dean Milano did a model for My Favorite Martian.
Here some info taken from his FB page.
The story: Sometime back in the mid 1990s or so, Disney Studios contacted me telling me they were working on a remake of My Favorite Martian and they needed a model of a 1960 Valiant, which was apparently the car in the original TV series. So, I told them I had one and they were thrilled. I painted it the color they needed (copper) and built it up, sending it off to Hollywood. Apparently, the model was used in several scenes in which the car is miniaturized and sent down a bathroom drain. They also used it as a guide to build several more models of various sizes. When it was all done, they returned my model along with a really huge check. No wonder the budgets are so high on these films. Ha!

Ghostbusters. The Original film
When the Large Staypuft Marshmallow Man (person in costume)
is starting to climb the side of the building. The Police cruisers, Fire trucks, Ecto-1 are all Models
You can tell by the different Flashing of the Model lights versus the actual vehicles.
Starlog mag did an article about that too.
I think I still have that issue, but not sure where

Wait a minute. I thought this thread was about actual models or model kits in movies and TV shows. In the background or someone actually working on them.
Movie makers have been using models or miniatures since they first started making movies.

Google and Facebook still biggest players in UK
You can hardly call it "news" anymore but still... Hitwise has released new numbers showing that Google is still the biggest player when it comes to online in the UK.
In the top 20 websites visited last week (ending June 13th), Google takes up four different spots with Gmail and Image search for example also in the top twenty. The BBC is as always also very present with three sites in the top.
When it comes to the search engines after Google looking at the last month Yahoo is still the strongest brand in the UK, followed by Ask and Bing. However if you only look at last week Bing surpassed Yahoo and went to the fourth spot with a marketshare of 3,11%.

SunWarrior protein powders are a popular vegan brand for those looking for supplemental protein. Although it is easy to get more than enough protein without powders, some people prefer an extra boost for satiety, for a filling snack, to replenish after a workout, to jumpstart the morning, or for numerous other reasons. All flavors are vegan, plant-based, gluten free, non-GMO, dairy free, hypoallergenic, raw, and soy free. They are also sweetened with stevia (except for the the Natural flavor, which is unsweetened). I tried several different flavors and types, and they are great for adding to a smoothie--or how ever else you use protein powder. They pack quite a healthy punch. For example, one 21 gram serving of the Chocolate flavor contains 16 grams of protein and only 80 calories. Beyond the original brown rice protein blend they also carry a Warrior Blend , which is a "synergistic proprietary blend fortified with coconut (MCT) oil" that contains a complete amino acid profile. This contains a mixture of pea protein, cranberry protein, and hemp protein. In addition to protein , they also have Activated Barley and Ormus Supergreens (which contains probiotic cultured greens, barley, wheat & oat grass, spinach, parsley, yucca, alfalfa, peppermint & stevia).
New York Naturals Kale Chips - I am a huge fan of kale chips, and these were no exception. These incredibly yummy and healthy munchables are vegan, raw, and come in flavors such as Sea Salt & Vinegar (my favorite, which also happens to be nut-free), Spicy Miso (which as a little kick from the habanero), Vegan "Cheese" (really tasty!), Bombay Ranch (just the perfect hint of Indian spice). In addition to kale chips, they also sell kale granola-- Greenola --which sounds completely weird, but is actually pretty delicious. I enjoyed the Cranberry Nut Cr unch , but didn't care for S pirulina Crunch (only because I'm not a big fan of spirulina in general). I would love to see this company go organic.
Starry Lane Bakery sent me a a few selections of their gluten-free and vegan baked goods. The Lemon Shortbread Cookies were delicious and practically melted in my mouth; I would never be able to tell these were gluten-free! Plus, they had that tart lemon flavor which I love. The FudgeBrownies had a nice crisp crust and gooey center. I'm not a huge brownie fan, though, and I found these to be really greasy (which could've just been a shipping error or defective batch). I would definitely be interested in trying more of their products in the future!
The GFB: Gluten Free Bar - Another fabulous gluten-free offering, these tasty little bars are portable, nutritious, and very satisfying. All the flavors--Oatmeal Raisin, Cranberry Toasted Almond, Peanut Butter, and Peanut Butter Chocolate--were thoroughly enjoyed, but the Peanut Butter one was my favorite. It tasted like peanut butter cookie dough! I find energy bars can be rather hit and miss. Some of them taste like sawdust, and some of them have ingredients that resemble that of a candy bar. Thankfully, The GFB is neither. It manages to taste great while also being healthy. Each bar is under 300 calories and provides 11-13 grams of protein--which make them ideal for a filling, on-the-go snack.
Medicinal Flower Flavor Extracts - These organic, cold-pressed extracts are revolutionary! I can't wait to try more of them. It can be hard to find flavorings--for baking, cooking, and more--that are truly natural and don't have a lot of sugars, chemicals, and additives. The great thing about these extracts, is that they are truly pure and natural and contain a very concentrated flavor. Although they are pricy, the quality ingredients make them stand out from the competition. Plus, whereas with many other flavorings a teaspoon or so is needed, with this brand all you need for a big flavor punch is one or two drops. Besides all the typical uses, they are really fun to mix up smoothies, warm beverages, or even water. So far all that I have tried have been great (I received the Coffee , Vanilla , Raspberry , and Almond ). The vanilla, in particular, is a favorite.
Living Harvest Tempt - I tried their unsweetened vanilla hempmilk . It's a nondairy beverage that is creamy and rich and perfect for smoothies, baking, and more. The flavor of hemp is slightly noticeable, but if you know what it is it isn't so bad. They also make an ice cream line, of which I sampled the mint chip. It wasn't my favorite brand of non-dairy ice cream, but I enjoyed a little on a brownie or in hot cocoa.
Bearded Brothers Energy Bars - These energy bars are dense, filling, delicious, and--bonus--use a lot of organic ingredients. In short, they aren't a wimpy bar. I tried the Fabulous Ginger Peach (featuring the strong flavor of fresh ginger), Bodacious Blueberry Vanilla (has a wonderful full-bodied vanilla flavor. Despite containing protein powder, it isn't chalky like some bars), Mighty Maca Chocolate (the maca and cinnamon combo give it an exotic flair), Colossal Coconut Mango (the tropical flavors complement each other well). Betty Lou's Snacks - I tried a sampling of vegan offerings from this company, and all of them were great. The Almond Butter Ball , Cashew Pecan Butter Ball , and Spirulina Ginseng Nut Ball were all fun and creative snacks that tasted very good! I also loved the Apple Cinnamon Fruit Bar , Blueberry Fruit Bar , Cherry Fruit Bar , and Strawberry Fruit Bar . It was hard to pick a favorite, as all of them seemed better than the next. The ingredients also seemed very fresh, and I noticed among the fruit bars, that the filling actually tasted like real fruit! I also got to try the Organic Powdered Peanut Butter and Organic Chocolate Powdered Peanut Butter , and am going to be adding this to my shopping list. Both flavors were so good, and I never would have known that they are low fat!
SnackLets Kale Chips - I told you I liked kale chips! This brand had less coating them some, but they were still perfectly crispy and hard to resist. With fun flavors like Double O Cheesy , BBQ Giddy Up , Spicy Chili-lata these are sure to be a hit. One can never have too many kale chips! These aren't organic either, but I hope that they consider it in the near future!
Enjoy the final days of 2012, and have a joyous and peace-filled new year!

Originally written on Eagles Eye | Last updated 1/16/13
A lot of good things are being said about Gus Bradley by players and coaches around the league. Bradley had his second meeting with Eagles executives yesterday (Tuesday) but no announcement has been made as of this writing regarding his future in Philadelphia. Meanwhile the Gus Bus is scheduled for an interview with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Here's a photo from last year of Gus Bradley (center) with his sons Eli and Carter on a Hawaiian fishing trip... It's tempting to forecast a Gus Bradley deal with the Eagles is imminent. According to Jordan Raanan of NJ.com, Bradley is indeed about to finalize a deal with the Eagles. It is widely believed that Bradley is the Eagles top choice right now to replace Andy Reid. Bradley landed in Philadelphia at around 2:30 on Tuesday. He flew in on Jeffrey Lurie's plane, another sign of how serious the Eagles are about landing the defensive coordinator. Second interviews are usually used to show the...

Erik says, "Work needs a new platform. An employment contract is no longer an efficient instrument to connect people with work. Today's reality is that the dynamism in the employment market just makes it more logical to attach support facilities like health and retirement to an individual and not to a place of work. That is what is now accomplished through BOTH: being employer and employee at the same time."
Erik joins Solo Talk host Donna Amos to share what he feels are the greatest challenges solopreneurs face, why a solopreneur should consider incorporation, how solopreneurs should approach issues such as health care and retirement, and much more.

Bharatbook.com glad to promote a new report on "Future of the Israeli Defense Industry - Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts to 2017" into its market report catalogue for reselling.
Future of the Israeli Defense Industry - Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts to 2017
This report is the result of SDI's extensive market and company research covering the Israeli defense industry, and provides detailed analysis of both historic and forecast defense industry values including key growth stimulators, analysis of the leading companies in the industry, and key news. http://www.bharatbook.com/
Introduction and Landscape
Why was the report written?
Future of the Israeli Defense Industry – Market Attractiveness, Competitive Landscape and Forecasts to 2017 offers the reader an insight into the market opportunities and entry strategies adopted by foreign original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to gain market share in the Israeli defense industry.
What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
In 2012, the Israeli defense market (http://www.bharatbook.com) valued US$13.10 billion, which represented the third largest military expenditure in the Middle East. During the review period, Israeli defense expenditure declined at a CAGR of -0.94% but is expected to record growth at a CAGR of 2.97% during the forecast period. The growth can be partially attributed to the US$15.5 billion of military aid from the US scheduled between 2013 and 2017; moreover, the continued security threats from Iran, Syria, and other neighboring Arab countries is forecast to result in Israel spending US$71.3 billion on defense during the forecast period.
What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
The security threats posed by Iran and Syria, hostility from neighboring countries, and Israel's inadequate troop size as a result of the country's small population, are expected to drive the country's defense expenditure during the forecast period. During the same period, the continued military aid of US$3.1 billion per year from the US will continue to increase the spending power of the country. Between 2013 and 2017, Israel is expected to accelerate its defense procurement plans to prepare for potential confrontations with Iran or Syria.

Art Jones's curator insight, July 7, 10:39 AM
Art Jones's insight:
#IOE #Futurist
Garten began by describing Muse's ability to distinguish a calm mind from an active one, then got into one of its more cutting-edge features, which, though it has not been rolled out commercially, a hacker can set up. With the hack in place, she said, once the user has succeeded in learning to control brain activity (specifically, to vary the speed of electrical pulses by closing his eyes or breathing deeply), he could potentially use the feature to interact with and control physical objects. Garten described it as "telekinesis."

Richard Platt's curator insight, May 31, 10:57 PM
Best description so far on the point that "cognitive action" being helped is what people are really looking for, meaning the reducing of it, albeit not for engineers, who have to do it for what they do in their work which is designing products / technologies to off-load it.

The S&P rose as high as 1,465 in September, the highest in almost five years, after the Federal Reserve said it would extend its so-called quantitative easing program and buy more bonds. The program is intended to lower borrowing costs and stimulate hiring.
Two reports that suggested that the outlook for the U.S. economy may be improving failed to encourage investors to push stocks higher.
Consumer confidence rose this month to the highest level in almost five years, pushed up by steady improvement in hiring. The Conference Board's consumer confidence index rose to 73.7 in November from 73.1 in October. Both are the best readings since February 2008.
The government reported separately that U.S. companies increased their orders of machinery and equipment last month, a sign that business investment is rising. Orders rose 1.7 percent in October, the best showing since a 2.3 percent rise in May.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note edged down to 1.65 percent.
Among other stocks making big moves:
—ConAgra advanced $1.34, or 4.7 percent, to $29.63 after it agreed to buy Ralcorp for $5 billion in a deal that will make it the nation's biggest maker of private-label foods. Ralcorp surged $18.57, or 26.4 percent, to $88.80.
—Corning Inc., a specialty glass maker, rose 78 cents, or 6.9 percent, to $12.13 after it said that North American television sales are stronger than expected in the fourth quarter, boosting demand for its products.
— Las Vegas Sands Corp. rose $2.33, or 5.3 percent, to $46.36 after the casino operator said it would pay a special dividend of $2.75 per share, distributing about $2.26 billion to shareholders before the end of the year.
—Monster Beverage Corp. soared $6.69, or 13.3 percent, to $51.97 as concerns eased about increased regulation for the energy drink maker following a letter to senators, made public Tuesday, from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

I have read on this site as well as other sites that the pitching in the Major Leagues is better now then ever before, and thus the offensive run production is down.
I believe there are a few things causing this shift.
1. Pitchers are throwing harder than ever before. There is no denying that at all. They have more pitches in their repertoires and it is much more difficult for hitters to identify those pitches. It use to be a starter had a four seam, perhaps a two seam with a little movement, either a curve or a slider (rarely did a pitcher have both) and a straight change. Now, the starters generally throw in a cutter, some have splitters, so on and so forth.
With the higher velocity, there is less reaction time.
2. Relievers now are better than ever before. It use to be that most relievers were just older starters that could not get the job done. However, nearly every team is taking some of their incredibly talented throwers from the minors and putting them in the pens. ie Chapman. In years past those pitchers would have been starters through and through...
The scouting reports, defensive shifts, and better athletes in the field.
Here is one big thing. Now, I base this solely on my own playing experience, so bear with me. I have counted and throughout my high school and college career I played against 6 future major league pitchers (that I know of--there were a couple in national tournaments that I thought were great pitchers, I just forgot their names over the course of 20 years).
Now a few of us could hit these stud pitchers, but there was a different approach we had to take with them. We did not want to fall behind in the count to them. Bottom line. See the ball and hit it early in the count. Get a decent fastball and go. If we got into the hole with two strikes... YIKES.
The major point I am making is this.... with Moneyball and sabermetrics...and the focus on working a high pitch count and walks for a better on-base average. IF there is an organizational emphasis/ league-wide philosophy on seeing as many pitches, you are putting hitters in compromising positions from the start.
Just in my limited experience, I never felt comfortable with two strikes (even against lesser competition), but that was just my approach. I wanted to get the at bat finished before two-strikes.
At first glance, I loved the late 90's and early 00's Yankees teams because many of them were experienced/talented enough to work a deep count and get the starters out by the sixth--but those were some great ballplayers in NY.
But now... I think for MOST teams, getting to the bullpen is not all that rewarding. (Obviously you have some lesser teams in the MLB that just have horrific relievers, but for the most part those reliever are coming in and throwing 90+ and making life difficult with not only right-handed but left handed specialists...etc.
The bottom line is this. If you are focused on working a pitcher...and seeing as many pitches as possible, and that pitcher is of equal or better talent than you are--then it is my belief that you are playing right into their hands. These starters are now conditioned for a couple of things.
1. Pitch 6 innings of three runs or less.
2. Knowledge that the hitter/team is looking to work the count and take a walk.
3. Greater emphasis on get ahead stay ahead. (Obviously this is age-old BUT now, knowing that hitters are being conditioned to see more pitches, I have seen more first pitch fastballs getting middle-out than in A LONG TIME.)
I think a team of hitters that can still be effective taking pitches and working a count will create a decent ball club--but bear in mind... most of those hitters are either veterans or just really good baseball players.

Advice & Support
During your
prenatal visits, talk with your doctor or midwife about what you would like
to happen during your labor. Consider writing up your labor and delivery
preferences in a birthing plan, either in a
childbirth education class or on your own. You can
find examples of birthing plans on parenting websites.
Because no labor or delivery can be fully anticipated or planned in
advance, be flexible. Your experience after labor begins may be totally
different from what you expected. If an emergency or an urgent situation
arises, your plans may be changed for your own or your baby's safety.
When making plans for your baby's birth, consider the
location of your delivery,
who will deliver your baby, and whether you want
continuous labor support from a
doula, a friend, or family members. If you haven't
already, this is also a good time to decide whether you'll attend a
childbirth education class, starting in your sixth or
seventh month of pregnancy.
Learn about labor and delivery ahead of time. Think
through your preferences for comfort measures, pain relief, medical procedures,
and fetal monitoring. And think through how you want to handle your first hours with your
newborn. For more information, see the topic Labor and Delivery.
Plan ahead for breast-feeding by learning about breast-feeding and finding a
lactation consultant ahead of time and buying necessary
supplies. For more information,
see the topic Breast-Feeding.
Sometime during your pregnancy, you may get information about cord blood banking. Cord blood is the blood left in the umbilical cord after birth. Think about whether you want to bank your baby's umbilical cord blood for possible future use.

That's why Best Brains sets students off on the right foot by offering focused courses in subjects such as math, English, abacus, and general knowledge. Certified teachers help students develop skills in writing, grammar, critical thinking word problems, and basic computational math, using an abacus counting tool to help develop spatial memory.44 W.

Huntington Learning CentersRead MoreIn the late 1970s career educators Eileen and Raymond Huntington opened the first Huntington Learning Center in Oradell, New Jersey. Their goal was to take an individualized approach to education, adjusting instructional tactics according to each student's set of needs. Their success in helping K–12 students prepare for exams and improve grades and study skills quickly spawned franchises across New York and New Jersey. Today, the certified Huntington tutoring staff utilizes testing and rubrics for assessing each child's skills, academic needs and potential for growth. The teachers even note the student's behavior in different testing and academic situations to craft a methodology sensitive to each child's learning style. Teachers also adhere to the company's code of ethics that stresses professionalism and confidentiality and encourages pupils to improve their grades honestly through dedicated study rather than shortcuts.179 S Rte. 83Elmhurst, IL US

Borrowed Earth CafeRead MoreBorrowed Earth Café The Borrowed Earth Café is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:57 a.m. to 9:03 p.m. each day. Odd hours are just one way the raw, vegan food spot is doing things differently—and they're renowned for the delicious results. They've been featured on "Check, Please!", awarded five stars by Metromix, and earned the recommendation of the Michelin guide in 2012 and 2013. It all started in 2006, when husband and wife Danny and Kathy Living finished a 30-day detox. The program recommended spending a few days eating raw food before returning to a normal diet. For Danny and Kathy, a 'normal' diet meant a vegan diet, but they decided to try the raw food thing anyway. They loved it right away, but didn't love the 90-minute drive between them and the nearest raw vegan restaurant in Chicago. After the raw meet-up group they hosted swelled to more than 30 people, they realized that raw food was their calling and decided to open Borrowed Earth Café—a dream that came true in 2007. Today, from their spot in the heart of downtown Downers Grove, the couple dishes up a menu brimming with organic, raw flavor. Entrees range from a sweet potato quesadilla nestled in a corn-and-flaxseed tortilla to a gyro with "meat" made from savory spices, nuts, and seeds. For dessert, diners tuck into their signature vegan cheesecake and other specialties including a banana split made with almond butter, chocolate, and scoops of banana ice cream in place of the traditional steak.970 Warren AveDowners Grove, IL US
Sylvan Learning ChicagoRead MoreUnderstanding that each child learns differently, the staff members of Sylvan Learning?s numerous study centers design custom lesson programs. Based on the results of standardized testing, diagnostic tools, and one-on-one interviews, the staff works with students to help them firmly grasp basic skills such as reading, writing, math, and how to remember facts without tattooing them to their chests. Programs target students in kindergarten through grade 12 and mold to various learning styles, helping kids feel more comfortable in the classroom. Afterschool or summer classes can ready high-school students for the rigors of the ACT or the SAT, or they can help students wow college-admissions officers with their superior writing skills, exemplary test scores, and willingness to arm-wrestle the school mascot.810 E Ogden Ave.Westmont, IL US

Kent State Welcomes a New Cyber Café on CampusPosted Dec. 10, 2012
A new cyber café, Food 4 Thought 2, has opened in Bowman Hall on the Kent Campus. The cyber café, which offers several healthy options, such as whole-wheat wraps, salads, soup and more, is one of the many positive results from campus-wide renovations. The first Food 4 Thought cyber café opened in White Hall on the Kent Campus in 2007.
Micheal Bruder, director of design and construction in the Office of the University Architect, explains that Kent State President Lester A. Lefton was in favor of the renovations to further improve students' experiences on campus.
"The president supports a vision for a campus that is comfortable and inviting for students and that promotes scholarship and friendships outside of the classroom," Bruder says. "He strongly supported and took an active role in the corridor and lobby improvements to Bowman Hall to improve the students' experience in this busy building."
Bruder says that the café was created for Bowman Hall because of its central location on campus and how it complements the now-modernized building.
"Bowman Hall is a particularly busy building that hosts many Kent core classes and so is visited by nearly every student at one time or another in their time on campus," Bruder says. "It's important to provide a space that accommodates the large numbers of students before and after classes, and encourages them to work together on group projects or just to study. It's part of providing an environment that promotes student success."
A team of architects and engineers from the Office of the University Architect worked to design the café and guarantee that it met the needs of the vendor.
Greta Siler, Food 4 Thought 2 manager, says that operating plans began during the summer, and she was happy to open the café in November.
Siler says that the café has been successful, and she plans to build her success with increased marketing and advertising.

I have been working at The Alhambra Palace Restaurant full-time (More than 3 years)Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDoesn't RecommendNegative Outlook
Involved with prestigious events. Created an unforgettable rolodex of contacts. You get out of the opportunity as to what you put in. My knowledge of operations on food and beverage has never been better. I started as an intern, worked my way into this position, and gave me more tools to further my career.
Long Hours! Mandatory 6 day work weeks as management. During holiday season, be prepared to work as much as 110 hours a week. I was never offered commission on my sales. This job is good for those who want to launch your career. This is not a career establishment. There is no upwards mobility, very few chances for raises.
Advice to Management
Listen to your lower management. Don't laugh at me when I ask for commissions. Don't make me feel like my job is never done and give us the rest and time off we work so hard to receive.

Work on correcting pay and having better schedules. Keep everything fair as far as keeping people staffed all night and keeping the tips fair.

41 year old woman | Redwood City, CA, USA | Seeking men 33-43 within 30 miles
Someone said you were looking for me...
ME: I'm upbeat, happy and straightforward. I'm content with my life and don't need a man to complete me, I just believe life is meant for two. I'm definitely a morning person - always eager to start the day and learn new things. (I promise to be quiet in case you want to sleep in.) I'm passionate about helping people improve their lives by achieving their nutrition and fitness goals. Staying healthy myself is a priority and I run, jump rope or swing kettle bells to work up a sweat...but I'll try any activity at least once! I try to eat healthy most of the time, but I'm far from a fanatic. Indulging is a must once in awhile! On a Friday night, you may find me curled up on my couch watching a movie, spending time with my fabulous friends or at a local bar being the life of the party. I'm spontaneous, so I rarely know what my plans are until they begin. YOU: -Confident and secure without being cocky -You're romantic and thoughtful and make me feel special. -You're supportive, yet call me out when I'm wrong -You're patient when I can't decide where to go for dinner or what to order -You're not afraid to express your emotions and won't just tell me what I want to hear -You make me laugh until my stomach hurts -You're passionate about life and family -You adore my goofy side and can dish it out and take it just the same. -You make me feel safe, but aren't overbearing -You're protective, not possessive -You trust and are trustworthy -You teach me new things and aren't too proud to let me teach you US: -We're totally in sync in every way and have undeniable chemistry. -We bring out the best in one another and laugh uncontrollably and often. -We motivate and inspire each other to achieve our dreams and pick each other up no matter how many times we fall. -We are comfortable saying anything or nothing at all. -We leave sweet notes for each other when least expected and have been known to drop everything and take a road trip just because. -We like spending time together, but equally value our alone time. We enjoy hanging out together with friends, but are secure when we go out alone. -We agree that texting is good, but a phone call is even better Congrats for making it to the end! Now, send me a message, please....

- At least once in your lifetime between the ages of 15 to 65.
- When you're pregnant.
- For people at high risk, once every 12 months, no matter what age you are.
- For people at very high risk, every 3 to 6 months, no matter what age you are.
You doctor can help you decide how often is appropriate for you.

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. — The first time Henrik Stenson saw Chambers Bay, he walked the course without playing it. The Swede did just fine with clubs in his hand Thursday in a rousing start to the U.S. Open.
Stenson birdied three of his last four holes for 5-under-par 65, his lowest score in the U.S. Open, to share the lead with Dustin Johnson.
Johnson was flawless until a bogey on his final hole, the par-3 ninth, that showed how wild this course can play. He pulled a 6-iron long, and then hit a chip that looked like it was running fast off the green until it made a hard left turn. He missed the 15-foot par putt.
Stenson and Johnson had a one-shot lead over former Augusta State All-American Patrick Reed.
Reed, who like Johnson and Stenson is searching for his first major victory, birdied five of his last 10 holes Thursday en route to 66.
Former Georgia Tech star Matt Kuchar had 67, as did former Clemson golfer Ben Martin and 22-year-old amateur Brian Campbell.
Masters Tournament champion Jordan Spieth, playing in the afternoon, had a run of three consecutive birdies and opened with 68.
Phil Mickelson, who has six runner-up finishes in the U.S. Open, had 69.
The morning groups were happy to get the first date with Chambers Bay out of the way.
"One day out of four done, and we're right there with where we want to be," Stenson said. "It's still a long journey until Sunday afternoon."
It's a long journey every round at Chambers Bay, the mystery course built on a former sand-and-gravel pit with 200 feet of elevation from the highest point to the train tracks that run along Puget Sound.
The course was always going to be the star in the opening round because no one knew what to expect. The USGA allowed for a relatively gentle setup, and the overcast sky and lack of wind certainly helped.
Stenson was among those who were skeptical about Chambers Bay, which opened only eight years ago.
Slowed by a stomach virus in the spring, he flew to Seattle on his way to the Match Play Championship and decided to walk the course to get a feel for how it played. It is faster now, and much firmer, and he thrived on it.
So did Johnson, no stranger to great starts in majors.
Johnson lost a chance to win the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach five years ago with an 82 in the final round.
He missed out on a playoff at the PGA Championship that same year by grounding his club without realizing he was in a bunker at Whistling Straits.
And his challenge at the British Open in 2011 was derailed by a 2-iron that went out-of-bounds on the 14th hole.
But coming off a six-month break to get his life in order, Johnson is as imposing as ever.
He surged into the lead with three birdies in a four-hole stretch, only to make bogey on his final hole. It didn't bother him. Nothing does.
"I really felt like I swung it well and hit a lot of quality iron shots," Johnson said. "So the confidence is definitely there. I feel really good about where I'm at going into tomorrow."
Pace of play has been a concern at Chambers Bay because of the rugged terrain and long walks between greens and tees.
Known for his rather short temper, Bubba Watson had to wait to hit his approach shot to No. 18. When he went left, he muttered loud enough for the cameras: "Waiting 30 minutes. This is pathetic."
Asked later about the slow pace and his reaction on 18, Watson replied: "We've been waiting all day. I just hit a bad shot. I'm not going to pout. We've all seen articles written about me that I'm a pouter. It's nothing new."
Watson, by the way, still shot 70.
Nobody has had a more eventful first three holes at the U.S. Open than Camilo Villegas.
The Colombian started on the back side with a pair of birdies Thursday, then hit into a greenside bunker on the short, par-4 12th. That's when things turned downright silly.
With his ball buried, Villegas declared an unplayable lie. But rather than going backward and dropping on a line with the hole, Villegas decided to try dropping within two club lengths of the original spot. When it kept rolling into the bunker, he placed it in the tall fescue.
Forgetting to rake the tracks left by the rules official in the bunker, Villegas chopped at his ball, which went a couple feet and then rolled back into the footprint. He tried to splash out from there and the ball rolled back into his new divot. He tried to get out once again and watched his ball helplessly roll back into the bunker.
He finally dug out of his hole for a crowd-pleasing triple bogey.

The Bottom Line- Preds Need To Sell More Tickets
by Paul on 07/11/07 at 10:38 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Tennessean,
The Predators can stay in Nashville by averaging 14,000 in paid attendance this season, but a leader of a local group bidding for the team said the average needs to be 16,000 for owners to break even.
The Predators have never averaged 16,000 — their highest average was 15,364 in 1999-2000 — and with about three months to go until the 2007-08 season begins, they have about 7,000 season-ticket holders. That's about where they were at this time last year, the team said.

So when it was time to sign a new contract last month, Nichol had a difficult decision: Should he stay in Music City despite the uncertainty of the franchise's situation following this season, or should he hit the open market and find a more stable destination?
In the end, he decided that sticking with a city, an organization and teammates he appreciated outweighed the fear of the unknown.

NHL Commish Biased Against Canada?
by Alanah McGinley on 07/05/07 at 05:22 PM ET

From AM570 News,
It was a very frank discussion in an exclusive interview with Jim Balsillie's lawyer Richard Rodier on 570's Prime Time Sports last night.
Rodier says Commissioner Gary Bettman is against having more teams in Canada, and believes his client Jim Balisille is being treated differently because of his desire to move the Nashville Predators to Hamilton.
During the interview Rodier says he believes a gag order has been put into place, covering the NHL's Board of Governors regarding the deal.

Predators Still Need a "Letter of Intent"
by Alanah McGinley on 07/05/07 at 05:29 AM ET
Comments (0)
From Steve Milton at The Hamilton Spectator,
Your Intent Please: Despite the ripple of semi-news that a local group has put in an offer to buy the Nashville Predators and keep them in Tennessee, current owner Craig Leipold still has received no letters of intent.
Not from the consortium of local businessmen led by David Freedman and Herb Fritch, both executives in the health-care business. Not from William 'Boots' Del Biaggio III, who would reportedly move the team to Kansas City.
A letter of intent would give either of those groups the right to exclusive negotiations on buying the team.
The Nashville-based syndicate has been percolating for several weeks and Leipold said two weeks ago that he'd consider giving them a "local discount." But their proposal is believed to be well below the $190-million figure at which DelBiaggio bowed out of the bidding in May. Waterloo billionaire Jim Balsillie won that auction with a letter of intent for an estimated $238 million, but his exclusivity ended two weeks ago.

Back To Reality

from David Climer of the Tennessean,
It is a slap back to reality. With the franchise up for sale, owner Craig Leipold is playing it close to the vest and tight to the wallet.
All of which means the Predators are back in their comfort zone. This franchise was born as an expansion team with a roster of no-names. Many of its best days came as an underdog overachiever. This was The Little Team That Could.
Perhaps it is the team's birthright. Some organizations are more comfortable at higher altitudes and with loftier salaries. Not the Preds. They seem best suited to squeezing the most out of every dollar.

Nashville Consortium Bids for Predators Franchise

From Tim Wharnsby at the Globe & Mail (Wednesday's edition),
The Nashville Predators have a third party officially involved in what has become a turtle race to purchase the struggling National Hockey League franchise.
A local group, headed by health-care executives David Freeman and Herb Fritch and containing nearly 30 investors, put forth its bid to buy the Predators and keep them in Nashville.
The group's spokesperson, lawyer Chase Cole, and Predators' senior vice-president of communications Gerry Helper would not confirm the local syndicate's proposal to team owner Craig Leipold, but a source connected with the group answered in the affirmative.

Poile's Hands Are Tied

from the Tennessean,
"I was holding out hope until we talked to (Predators General Manager David Poile) four or five days before free agency,'' Poile said. "He said there was nothing he could do. His hands were tied.
"With the ownership situation there and so much uncertainty to where the team is going to be and what was going to go on, we had to take a look and see what was out there.''
Kariya said he thought about signing a one-year contract with the Predators, secure in the knowledge the team would definitely be in Nashville this coming season. But the 32-year-old left wing wasn't comfortable with the uncertainty that might follow.

Future Hurting Preds?

Comments (0)
from the Tennessean,
The question now for the Predators — as the unrestricted free-agency period enters its second day — is whether players outside the organization will be willing to take a leap of faith as well.
Predators Coach Barry Trotz said he doesn't think it's so far-fetched to think some free agents would sign a multi-year deal here despite the uncertainty of the future.
"If you look at not the business part, but the hockey part, we are very appealing to a lot of free agents,'' Trotz said. "We have a great city in terms of where to live; we have a great hockey team; and there are a lot of things we do right here.''

International Agriculture Trade Disputes: Case Studies In North America
Trade disputes between the United States, Canada, and Mexico surrounding agricultural products are widespread and show no signs of abating. As the United States increases agricultural imports while straining under a stagnant level of exports, there is growing tension between trading partners as evidenced by the significant increase in trade remedies being sought by competing countries. A recent conference held in Florida in 2003 that included lawyers, economists, and private sector representatives examined the issues surrounding trade disputes in industries such as lumber, live cattle, and wheat and dairy products. International Agricultural Trade Disputes: Case Studies in North America presents the findings of this conference and analyzes trade disputes and relevant trade issues from 1995 to 2003. Using case studies to illustrate the complexity of trade disputes, this book examines many factors, such as United States farm policy, the role of politics, and the various trade remedy measures employed in resolving these disputes.

Tell me where to put bike racks in the Waterfront
This topic contains 96 replies, has 32 voices, and was last updated by Jacob McCrea 8 mos, 3 weeks.
edmonds59 #
Uggh, hall monitors.
Benzo #
Man, would I love a path that took me straight under the homestead grays bridge and connected to the street that runs behind the giant strip of stores and connected back up with the trail before the rankin bridge. That would be awesome.
I guess W bridge St, cross amity, swing behind the strip isn't a terrible route If I wanted to do that, but I'm sure a trail could be done. It would help if there was a traffic light at w bridge st to make it easier to cross 4 lanes of two way traffic.
Ahlir #
The current state of things, coming from W Bridge, is not too bad. Swing around Macy's and continue. The lights at Amity and the street that fronts the mall are pretty benign. Cross and go across a not-very-busy parking lot and you're there.
Now, lights at the other end (past the Lowe's) would really be nice.
cowchip #
I think the bike lane should continue all the way through the waterfront ,8th ave has room too , I never use the MUP . i stay in the right lane and cut behind costco through gas pump
Benzo #
I find the MUP behind the restaurants a nice option, but there are lots of pedestrians, the path is not paved and gets soft/puddly in wet weather and winter. This was especially bad when some heavy machinery was driven on the path this winter/spring and created deep impressions in the crushed limestone surface. This is fine on a cross bike or hybrid with fatter tires, but sucks on a road bike with skinny tires.
I'm much more apt to take the paved way, which I tend to do via waterfront dr, but the highway like orientation of that street is a real turn off. Wish there was a better connector around the waterfront.
Marko82 #
Not sure why, but there was a survey crew measuring the road frontage in front of Costco earlier today. I also tempted the rath of the hall-monitor by riding through the gas pump area – the attendant didnt say anything as I waved and went past.
Vannevar #
thanks Marko I appreciate it. Interesting post on FB from the Rivers of Steel National Heritage Area regarding the PumpHouse (which they own) (and I don't think this is a problem)
"Due to the increased traffic at the Pump House and the need to be able to use our space for events, tours, the market, etc. we will be installing gates on the lot sometime within the next few weeks. The lot will be open for trail parking as usual the majority of the time, we will however be reserving the right to close the gates/lot for events. We appreciate your help in making the public aware of these changes."
Marko82 #
"After the newest segment of the Great Allegheny Passage opened nearby in summer 2013, Joe Ducar noticed some trail users were making their way to explore the heart of Homestead."

My comment on http://www.post-gazette.com/local/south/2014/10/09/Bicyclists-welcome-in-Mon-Valley-boroughs/stories/201410090060
I enjoy bicycling too, so several years ago I joined the Steel Valley Trail Council, the volunteer organization that manages the bike trails along the Mon River in this area. Working with the Waterfront, "The Avenues", and others on spur trails and bike racks, etc, is something we've been active in. We would love to get more people who live in Homestead and nearby communities involved in the trail. Anyone interested in the trail is invited to attend our monthly meetings – see steelvalleytrail.org, or email email@example.com
jonawebb #
The interview with the Marty Sweeney is awfully positive for 50 bike racks spread over a mile of real estate. I wonder what the ratio is of bike parking versus car parking — 1000:1?
Mikhail #
There are certain places that bicyclists prefer to another and lot of recreational bikers do not care locks with them. It would be nice if some places could provide U-Lock rent for small fees like OTB does. I don't know if any liability is involved… This is on one hand
On other hand, if there is concern that u-locks are going to be stolen on their own — may be real good hardened chain attached to a rack with lock could solve the problem.
Ahlir #
I like the system they have for shopping carts in Europe: They're all chained together in the lot. You drop in a euro and one unlocks. Kind of like lockers in the bus or train stations over here.
Presumably the bike parking would be somewhat supervised (e.g. just outside a café.)
cowchip #
My reply is put them everywhere the budget allows and try to provide a couple of sheltered bike parking spots and or a pavilion and a picnic table just for cyclist , was chased out of Costco gas pumps when it started to rain and I needed cover . Please
JaySherman5000 #
I took a group of colleagues out for a ride yesterday that started and ended at the Waterfront. Afterwards, we got lunch at Gran Agave, but there was only a single swerve rack available in front of the restaurant. We ended up securing 3 or four bikes to it by just locking bike-on-bike after the first two were locked to the rack.
In between the Improv and Gran Agave, there are a couple of useless patches of grass that look like the perfect place for adding bike corrals. This is right in front of the side-entrance to Macy's, across from Yokoso. It would be a nice, out of the way spot to provide parking for lots of bikes without impact to motor vehicle parking or pedestrian traffic. Of course, I'm not opposed to eliminating some of the motor vehicle parking to make room for bike racks, but at least this idea would be immune to the "but where will I park my car?!?" hysteria.
jonawebb #
Not to mention the various covered areas around the theater building. The west side has a couple of spaces on each side of the entrance that would be perfect for a bike corral.
Jacob McCrea #
This is slightly off topic but not worth a new thread:
Here is a bike rack I just finished fabricating for an old friend. It's going in at his new bar and restaurant in Homestead, across the tracks from the Waterfront, at 224 E. 8th Avenue (Route 837). The place is called Dorothy 6 (named after an old blast furnace in Homestead) and is well worth a trip to check it out. Anyone who enjoys seeing a formerly vacant building rehabilitated and put to productive use would enjoy seeing what has been done there. More importantly, 20 good beers are on tap and the food is quite good.
I should finish painting the rack today and have it installed by the weekend. Hopefully this upload works.
