Value for Money
Very nice decorated restaurant with a good location near the beach of Mumbai. Spices serves one of the best Sushi on earth. They have a wide selection of non veg and veg Thai and Japanese cuisines. We found that some of the Thai dishes had an Indian twist to it such as the fried vegetables and the fried beancurd. Its completely worth to your time and Money.

Worth every penny
I am usually freaky about food and ambiance, this place is perhaps of the best for Japanese and Thai in Mumbai. It has a huge variety in the menu with wonderful staff, who will guide you. Spices and Lotus Cafe in JW Marriott have always impressed me with high QoS (quality of services).

Careless staff!
The first visit to Spices was unique because we opted for the Teppanyaki counter and the chef was great, thus making the whole experience very pleasant. The second time our visit was not so pleasant. We ordered a few drinks (which were OK) and ordered a plate of mixed fried rice of the person who asked for the order the 1st time. 30 minutes on, we checked with the guy who was keeping a tab on us to check if all was fine, and he said its "on its way". After that, some new manager-type fellow comes up to say that apparently there was NO ORDER PLACED for any rice dish. We politely told him that was not the case, and that we had been reminding the waiters hovering around for the food, which was not coming. Sensing that if he insists further with the allegation that no order was placed, he would be suffocated with the rising fury of the seated group, he flashed a plastic smile and walked away saying the rice was on its way. it came finally, but not exactly what we had ordered. Sigh. Talk about trying a hungry stomach's patience!

Not that suits a JWM
I am disappointed with Spices. it was my 1st visit to JWM and it really did not meet an expectation desired from a class resto. We went for a fixed menu at the Spices on Sunday 03 Apr evening.
Thumbs Up:
1. Ambience - Dimly lit and an amazing view of JWM back yard garden.
2. Menu
Thumbs Down:
1. Service: Lax!! Waiters do not care to attend.. It feels sick when you are made to call a waiter for serving water.. I took rice with Thai curry and I was shocked to see rice not warm.. It takes them 30 mins to serve the starter course after the drinks were served and another 15 mins to serve the soups..
I take this service if I am sitting at a roadside resto.. BUT not from a JWM inhouse restaurant!!
2. Food : I would rate 2/5. Mainland China fares above on the taste buds..

Four of us went for a celebratory dinner on Republic Day to Spices at JW. The ambience here is very good, the whole decor and atmosphere of this place is ambient, cozy, they have a live kitchen. The wine and champagne list is commendable, we ordered for a bottle of champagne...chateau..something, it was brilliant, recommended by the waiter. Moving on to the food, for appetizers, we had prawn cakes, which were a bit too greasy and oily but the prawn filling inside was very flavorful. BBQ chicken wings were mediocre, they are certainly not oriental and should be excluded from the menu ( they must be a popular choice), Dimsums were very tasty. Main Course: All the main course dishes we ordered were delicious and the servings were quite generous. Thai Green Curry : Amazing, a bit too much cocunut, but it was very flavorful and right chouce of vegetables, even the rice that came along with it was prepared well! Sea Bass: Whatever you do, do not miss this dish, it is simply out of the world!! It is very, very well done by the chef, the sauce is tangy and flavorful but it allows for the natural taste of the fish, Chicken in Black Bean was well....ok...i believe that chicken doesnt go well with oriental cuisine but my companions insisted on ordering chicken. Desserts were simply excellent, they have a very interesting dessert menu, i think it is the creativity of the chef, if it truly is then hats off to him! Here it goes..Litchi and Cocunut Tart, was very good, the litchis were canned, but it was nonetheless quite satisfactory and lived up to the expectations. Irish coffee, haha, it was brilliant, right amount of spirit and the coffee it was a really good way to end an enjoyable experience. Overall Spices is one of the best Thai/Oriental restaurants in the city, however it is expensive, but the quality of the food and wine does justice to the price.

limited choice for veggies
went there on a sat nite a 8.30pm after havin made reservations and saw that barely 2-3 tables were occupied. we were offered a table which i was a little hesitant about..........asked if they could arrange for a table which seemed to have a good view........but was refused......y bcoz they had already taken reservations for that one....ya rite.......only one of the 5 tables which we wanted was occupied by the time we left !10pm)
wot i liked about the restaurant was that there was a live kitchen........and overall ambience was nice.......
coming to the menu : limited choices for veggies..........only 2 starters.......we ordered the one with potatoes (some thai starter.....don't rem the name)........which was too oily for my comfort.
now comin to the main course in chinese......options :fried rice, or garlic burnt rice or noodles.
there were 4-5 options for vegetables......mixed veggies in garlic sauce is wot we ordered along with veg fried rice..........the service & ambience were the only good things about this place. they were polite and pretty prompt too.
when the mixed veggie with the supposed GRAVY arrived we saw that there was almost no gravy........so we asked if we could have some extra gravy............and the staff was nice enough to get some extra gravy.
VFM: definitely NOT
Went there on Friday Night.
Service was very nice. The ambience was cosy and nice.
Food was good.
The Californian Roll and Prawn Tempura's were strictly nice.
The main course was definitely worth it. The Chef's Recommended Sichuan Chicken And Thai Fried Rice were impeccably nice!
The Tepinyaki counter and Sushi seemed promising!
Need to make another visit for it soon!

After umpteen visits to the Lotus Cafe and Saffron decided to visit Spices... just a few days back when I was at the Lotus cafe over lunch happened to see the new chef of spices so here we go...
With a warm welcome and a good round of the restaurant we were escorted to a nicely done candle lit table for four..Some Prawn crackers and Hot and sour peanuts were placed to keep us busy...After a nice selection of wine we proceeded to order..
They have a Tepanyaki Grill & a Sushi Bar for the Japanese food lovers.. And of course they do serve Sake... A rice wine... Will go for it the next time I visit them
A hot & Sour Prawn Soup = Rs 400/- Hot Yummy robust with bit size pieces of fresh " de-veined" (pls note a lot of good Restaurants miss out on this. ) prawns, mushrooms , bamboo shoots etc... loved the taste..
A big mistake: - Honey chilli chicken
Inspite of the big no no warning from the captain still went ahead with it... and we got what the dish spelt.. Honey drizzled crunchy chilli Sesame chicken... it was good in the first few bites.... but then later on it it was a big turn off...
Main course: - Crispy Pomfret with chilli basil sauce
Two rolls of crunchy fried pomfret fillets dunked in some brown sauce with basil leaves .. the fish was fresh but it was a pity that we did not like it much since it was absolutely bland and a little sweet for the Indian palate the portion just enough for two but a huge bowl of steam rice is served along with it.
were quite done with our food coz did not like what we ordered so wrapped it up... wud have loved to order a desert but all dat honey chicken gave us a head spin .. Maybe be next time
PS: - when brought to the notice of the chef dat inspite of telling them to later our food and make it spicy, it was not taken care of ... they were kind enough to just rectify their mistake....
We hope to give them another chance and order something different and spicy ... till then Ciao
The 4 star rating for the Fresh Sea Food ( most important ) and the care taken towards the customer ...

Yes, that is a dollar sign you see there. While I will convey my enthusiasm for finding good quality maguro (tuna) sashimi, everything at this place costs a fortune. Before any courses were ordered, we were served crab-flavoured won-tons and spiced peanuts as appetite whet-ters.The wife and I started with an order of the delicious sashimi. It tasted fresh, and was cut well since it went down like butter. The wasabi was unfortunately too solidified and did not dissolve well in the soy sauce, but a few extra whips and twirls of the chopstick took care of that problem. We moved on to chicken dim sum, served with a garlicky chili paste; and a traditional Thai Som Tam salad (raw papaya, peanuts, red chilis, etc.). Both were delicious.
For the main course, we decided to keep it simple - one order of Green Curry Vegetables and sticky rice. Unfortunately, this is where Spices faltered. There was something distinctly missing from the Thai Green Curry, although neither of us could put our finger on it. The sticky rice was some variety of Indian rice, thus, not chopstick-friendly.
Fairly stuffed, and still half a bottle of Orrin Swift 2005 Prisoner to go, we opted out of dessert. They still served some fresh cut fruits, which was pleasant. The decor is what you would expect of an upscale Asian place - rock garden entrance, large, Japanese paintings, darker furniture, dimly lit...could make for a good date joint.
All in all, I would definitely go back here as perhaps the place in the suburbs for dependable sushi and good Asian tapas (small dishes) - would opt out of ordering main courses next time - but most of us are perhaps too poor to dine here regularly.

I don't want them to feel bad about it, but...
But, it's just run-of-the-mill sushi. I mean, it wasn't bad - don't get me wrong. It was good. The saba (mackeral - which is my favorite) was actually surprisingly tasty!
I think what I' saying is, it's not worth the exorbitant price. I've had much better sushi in california for half the price. Of course, you have to pay $1500 to get to California...so, what's an $80 bottle of sake? Well it's kind of a lot since they're just small bottles of sake.
Something else that struck me as odd was how tiny the fish were in the sushi case!
Anyway, like I said, it was okay but it was super expensive, I think we spent $400 for a small dinner for two.

Loved The Ambience and Food!!!!
We werent if we really wanted to eat there after seeing the menu as none of us were sushi lovers....However the hostess suggested we try the tepinyaki at their tepinyaki n sushi counter.

An unexpected meeting
I only met Brad once, but the meeting, and he, left a lasting impression. I was at the gym in the middle of my workout, minding my own business. I saw him coming toward me down the hallway, accompanied by one of the personal trainers, along with a third person, a young woman in street clothes. He was in a wheelchair being pushed by his aid, the blond lady, and had significant trembling in his head and limbs. I watched without staring as he was assisted from the chair to a mat on the floor and was curious to see what rigors the trainer would put him through.
It became immediately apparent that Brad was not all that interested in his physical therapy. Almost upon contact with the mat, he asked my name, introduced himself and soon shared what certainly was one of the most significant and painful events of his life. He told me he had always been a bit of a hothead, was prone to acting on it and one night about five years earlier when he was in his early 20's, after a few drinks, got into a bar fight with some random dude. He was caught off balance, and his head struck the ground.
Brad continued to chat happily about wanting to share his story so others wouldn't act similarly, moved on to make a few jokes about this, that and the other thing, and—dare I say—even rolled out some pretty shameless flirting. The trainer and aid eventually coaxed Brad through all of his exercises then packed up and retreated back down the hallway. I had to laugh as I saw this young man stop along the way to chat up each and every female he encountered. As I said, shameless.
My Aha moment
I couldn't even tell you what my response was in hearing about Brad's tragedy, but I do remember so clearly that he was absolutely matter-of-fact, almost upbeat in a way, if you can fathom it; I know I was floored. And humbled beyond words.
I realized in an instant I had made a ton of assumptions about Brad when I first laid eyes on him, jittering his way toward me. Yet I was presented with this bright, articulate, funny, thoroughly charming young man who kind of made my day and a lifetime impression in a few short minutes. It was an Aha moment, and I'm so happy we spoke.
The passing of ADA
I haven't seen Brad since but found myself wondering about him this week as I read of the anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities (ADA) by President Bush in 1990. It has been called by some the single-most important piece of legislation protecting people with disabilities in this country and is meant to support their opportunity to participate in "major life activities," such as going shopping at the mall, eating dinner out at a local restaurant or dropping some items off at the dry cleaners. Some of the law addresses anti-discrimination practices for employment, while a large portion provides the guidelines for improving physical barriers at a facility for accessibility.
The general consensus is that the passing of ADA has been monumental in improving the situations for many with disabilities. Sadly, there is also agreement that much more work is yet to be done. All these years later, for example, and many public or commercial buildings are still not compliant with even the basic requirements to ensure access. And that, to me, seems like the easier aspect to address—things like installing a ramp or widening an aisle—than getting knuckleheads like me to not make unfounded assumptions about someone's abilities, physical or cognitive. Here is a guide for small businesses on ADA, one that I found to be more understandable and less legal mumbo-jumbo, in addition to our own guide to ADA specifications for wheelchair threshold ramps.
Becoming ADA compliant
I know I risk going a bit "commercial" at the expense of this exceptional person I met, Brad, and I don't wish to cheapen the experience in any way. But if your facility has a need for ADA compliance, there are many simple, affordable options available for threshold ramps, landing ramps and modular wheelchair access ramp systems. So many years since the passing of ADA, it is truly time to take the those first few, simple steps to coming ADA compliance.

Anyone like death/black metal?
Hey guys,
My band and I have just released our debut EP, entitled "Apotheosis".
Im actually the vocalist as im more of a prog drummer than a death metal drummer.
Heres a link to a music video we shot in September. Itll give you an idea of our sound.
Were heavily influenced by bands like Decapitated, Behemoth and Meshuggah.
Hope you enjoy!

Shift icons to the left
okay...now this seems to be a pretty stupid question but i havent been able to figure it out as of yet...i want to palce my icons on the left hand side of the screen, now i know you can drag the icon over to that side of the screen and it will sit there but when you download something or mount a drive or anything it by defualt mounts to the right hand side again. so what i want to do is to force them to show up on the left hand side....i got a feeling that there is no setting localy in OSx for this and im thinking im going to need a piece of software...i've tried tinkertool but still no luck....anyone have any suggestions...or a piece of code i can change in terminal ?
thanks in advance
I have not seen anything to do as you have requested.
I don't like the M$ way of placing all of the icons on the left side. It looks like Apple is doing the opposite. I pefer mine to be on the top or bottom of the screen, but that is me. :) You can try version tracker or mac update, you might be able to find something to resolve your problem.

Humphrey Bogart is downright scary in this one…directed by Rebel Without a Cause director Nicholas Ray. Like another Bogart film noir film, Dark Passage from 1947, this is another one that Hollywood didn't like to make that often…no "happy" ending. Most film noirs don't end conventionally happy, but they do find some sort of resolution. There is no resolution here…In a Lonely Place ends even darker than it begins. The story revolves around Bogart's character, who is a struggling screenwriter trying to get back on his professional feet. He has no desire to read the book he's been asked to adapt so when he meets a young lady who has read it, he asks her to tell him the story…at his apartment. Nothing "bad" seems to happen but the next morning when we find out the girl has been murdered, we really are not sure how innocent Bogart really is. I mean, this is a man out of control. Right from the beginning, we see he has a bad temper and it only gets worse. This is NOT a nice guy, but somehow, due to the director of Ray and mostly to the stellar acting of Bogart, we like him. We feel for him and we WANT him to be innocent, even though we're not 100% sure he is. One of Bogart's best performances!!!

When I saw Angel Face in a Film Noir class in college, I was stunned. How could a movie be this dark, yet still so appealing? But, that, as I learned more about film, is what Film Noir is all about. Noir movies do not always have happy endings (most of them do not) and they most definitely do not have to have everything throughout the movie be idyllic and cheery. After all, Noir is about life post-WWII…it's dark and brooding, just like war. So, getting back to Preminger's masterpiece Angel Face…I mean, this is the man who directed one of my favorite Noir titles (and often referred to as one of the first big titles of the genre), Laura. That film ends with a somewhat uplifting ending. I mean – only the "bad guy" gets it. In Angel Face, forget trying to figure out who's bad and who's good and what's going to happen next because you never will. And the ending…well, let's just say you will be shocked. Mitchum plays the perfect Film Noir wanderer…he's searching for something and just might have found it with Jean Simmons, a very spoiled, EXTREMELY troubled young lady with a lazy father and a rich stepmother. Enter Mitchum who Simmons sets her sights and her clutches on. It's a timeless tale of love gone wrong…with several major roadblocks set up along the way.

I just took a 5 day vacation out of the country and left my 4 lb. Chihuahua with Suzy. The experience could not have gone better. Every day I got emails with updates and photos that put my mind at ease. Suzy has a kind and gentle demeanor that my timid rescue dog very much responded to. She's intuitive and you can tell she has a genuine love for animals. I will use her EVERY time I'm not able to take my dog with me. I found my perfect pet sitter.
Angela K. New York , NY
I honestly cannot imagine taking my precious little frenchie anywhere other than cuddles!! it really is worth organising your trip around availability because your little furbaby cannot be in ANY better care than with Suzy...
The updates and fantastic photos everyday are such a highlight and you can rest easy knowing they are getting one on one attention and plenty of play and love. My baby always comes back freshly washed and in great shape...she goes crazy when she sees suzy with excitement!
Suzy is also amazing at any special conditions or requests needed such as allergy treatment in our case and takes extra care to stick to any special instructions and regular routines...
It makes owning a pet so much easier knowing that when you go out of town your pet is well taken care of and has such a great time! we would be lost without cuddles!
Fleur C. New York, NY
Suzy is the best - hands down! I have had some terrible experiences with pet sitters in NYC and after the second time, I found Suzy. She is meticulous about her business and the quality of service she provides, and it shows. She has always accommodated us whenever we have needed it - even during the very busy holiday season. What you can expect: quality service, daily emails with full description of your pet's condition, mood and the service she provides, and upon your return, a spotlessly clean home and happy animals!
Honestly, I think my cats are actually disappointed when I get home because they love Suzy so much. We love receiving the photo updates each day while we're away.
Thank you Suzy!!! Highly recommended!
Ashley D. New York, NY
I have used Suzy's help with our very attention-hungry cat for over a year now - for long and short durations of time. With respect to setting up and scheduling, Suzy has always been prompt, efficient and very responsive. And as for taking care of our very attention-hungry cat, she has been absolutely wonderful. We have always come back to a happy, healthy and clean cat. Her diligence at taking pictures of him and reporting back consistently and in detail every day has been very welcome and we really appreciate it. Suzy also really takes the time to play with our cat and brush him and make sure that he is truly well and happy. Even when he makes an extra mess, she deals with it with no problem at all and has always been extremely gracious and loving toward our cat. I highly recommend her help and let is suffice to say that I have already requested her help three months out!
Imran A. New York, NY
Suzy and Cuddles & Tails are the best kept secret in Manhattan! I have to travel often and unpredictably for my job and I honestly don't know what I'd do wit
hout Suzy. My schedule changes often and and she always accommodates. No problem. No fuss. Never. No matter the situation. The peace of mind alone is priceless!
But that's just the tip of the iceberg. What makes it even better is the lova Sadie gets when I'm away. Sadie knows the way to C&T and when we get within two blocks she runs towards the door! I'm pretty sure for her it's like going on vacation to a spa! She always comes back so happy and clean (and pooped from playing with all her new friends and walks to the park)! I can't say enough good things C&T!
Danielle T. New York, NY
I used Cuddles and Tails for my two cats when I went overseas for two weeks. My timing coincided with Hurricane Sandy. During the hurricane, Suzi still visited every day and managed to send me an update even though she lost power in her own home / place of business.
Even without these extreme circumstances, her service is fantastic. She is a consummate professional who has really worked out how to provide an excellent unbeatable service - from the cleaning to the playing to the additional tasks (eg collecting mail) to the daily updates. Most importantly, my cats were happy. I have no concerns about going away again now that I have the security and peace of mind that comes with Cuddles and Tails.
Rachel S. New York
Suzy has been a godsend! When I travel, not only do I have the peace of mind knowing that they are in good hands, but I get email updates with photos of my little ones lounging around and playing. When they come home from a weekend with Suzy, they are tired and happy :) Suzy's genuine compassion and dedication to taking care of my dogs is evident in all her interactions, and I know they love her too...When I pick them up from her place, they don't even want to leave! For my shy and sometimes nervous dogs, that's the sign of an amazing dogsitter!
Lori Z. New York
Suzy is fantastic! not only is she amazingly efficient but her genuine care for the animals she looks after is very apparent upon meeting her. I had no doubt my little nugget was going to be in great hands! She listens and takes notes on how you care for your pet, then does he due
diligence to make sure she mimics the exact same routine while you are away. She showers the animals in her care with the utmost love and affection. Suzy is very calm and relaxed and keeps an exceptionally immaculate household. Tito can't wait to return!
Jenifer S. New York
We found the Cuddles & Tails website last July, and Suzy has become absolutely indispensable to us ever since. We travel a lot, and in the past have had to burden friends and neighbors with the responsibility (in the form of a "favor") of checking in on our two cats while we're away. Suzy is a godsend. We get an email update every day (complete with pictures!) and she is responsible, respectful, flexible, trusting, and takes the security of our home very seriously. I really don't know what we'd do without her. An absolute A+, highly recommended. Stark S. New York
Suzy is wonderful! Prior to using her cat sitting service, she came over to our apartment to meet myself and my cat. She was professional, friendly, and she is so easy to work with. She watched Piglet multiple times this summer and was even able to fit us in on short notice. I love how she sends an update with pictures every day and she is very responsive to email. Piglet gets upset when we leave town and Suzy was great about cleaning up her accidents and making sure she was well taken care of. I found Suzy via Yelp and like everyone else, I highly recommend her.
Wallie M. New York
I have only great things to say about Suzy. She was extremely easy to work with, flexible, and great with my dog! For all the individual care she's able to provide her rates are very low. She walked my dog for 30 minutes, 3 times a day at exactly the times I requested. My dog even got her own room! With the personal attention, daily email updates and pictures, and even a complimentary consulation, I high recommend Suzy. I think my dog had a better vacation than me! We will be using her again. Amanda G. New York
Suzy has been the best pet sitter I know and could ever ask for! She has been a lifesaver taking care of my cat when I have to travel for work. She is incredibly professional, coming to my apartment before starting the pet sitting service to go through all of the details and asking all the right questions about my cat and the apartment. She also provides the most wonderful update emails every day she comes to my apartment, letting me know how my cat is doing and informing me of anything else that she thinks I might want to know about the apartment. She is very reliable, great with animals, and I feel very comfortable with her checking up on my cat and my apartment.
I am very grateful to have found Suzy as my pet sitter, and I would absolutely recommend her to all my friends and family and will continue to use her whenever I need pet sitting! She's the best!
A.P. New York
I have two small dogs, named Buddy and Theodore, who I love very dearly and consider my family. Theo was a rescue shelter dog who has a lot of trust issues with people he doesn't know. It usually takes him a long time to warm up to someone. He was a mistreated puppy mill stud, who lived most of his life in a cage, so when I had to be out of town and couldn't take my dogs with me, I was looking for an alternative to putting them into a kennel with cages and an overall loud, scary environment. I was lucky enough to find Suzy at the top of the google search and boy do I feel lucky to find her. She provides a loving and tranquil service that is unprecedented. I have 100% peace of mind when I love my little ones with her. Buddy and Theo absolutely love her and I can tell them feel completely at home during their stay. Suzy sends daily updates where I can obviously see how my puppies are having a wonderful time. I totally appreciate all the care and attention she gives. She is a pet-lover's dream! I am a proud customer and always sing her praises whenever someone is looking for a petsitter.
Emma C. New York
Suzy is the best cat sitter! We will never board our cats again! Suzy took care of our three cats while we were on holiday vacation. She is trusting, reliable, a perfectionist, and even more importantly our cats loved her! We came home to happy, healthy kitties! And, we even got daily updates (with pictures) about our cats daily activities!

VIDEO: The Cutest Giraffe You'll See All Day
Hello, Autumn!
This leggy lady is the newest addition to Adirondack Animal Land in Gloversville, N.Y., and was fittingly named for the season in which she was born.
The 6-foot-tall giraffe hasn't wasted any time since her arrival on Sunday, the first day of fall: she was standing within an hour of her birth, according to local station News10.
In this clip from CNN, you can see she's a bit wobbly on her feet but as her wiggly ears show, she seems comfortable with the people and cameras surrounding her. She'll be sashaying around her pen in no time!

I found a place where experts could take a closer look. The first thing they need is a detailed description. I´ll do that. Don´t forget that the most encryptions are told you by a group that work very intensive together with the NSA. Even Bruce Schneier (that I´ve also contacted for informations) doesn´t trust very much in AES-256. Why the heck do others then?
The most encryption rules that are used in well-known encryptions (especially AES-256) are also included in mine - perhaps a little bit simplier but at least same or more effective by breaking some of the NIST rules like size and rounds and some "forbidden" things like random salt and OTPs. I have test-programs that show me similar or better results in encryption compared to other programs. After describing the algorithm and releasing the sourcecode I hope to get constructive comments on whats wrong or ok with it. Payed Expertices by professionals costs too much money for a nearly free program (you can donate if you like). I can only assure you that I made a lot of efforts to get its actual state and I´ll continue doing all to get more people trusting in an in my opinion new powerful encryption.
I invested most of the time (98%) in developing and testing the algorithm (my first idea to it came 5-6 years ago I think) not the app (2%).
Coding was the main part of my live in the last 30 years. I´m not a high-schooler that creates only simple Dialogs. I´ll still continue with or without people that use it - because I´ll use it for my own products.

The New York Yankees officially shipped righthander A.J. Burnett to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday, agreeing to pay about $14 million of the estimated $30 million he is owed over the next two seasons.
Sizing up the deal:
Pirates: If nothing else, this deal demonstrates a desire to win that has been lacking for quite some time in Pittsburgh. In past years, the front office would have been content to enter spring training with the status quo, but Burnett at least provides the potential for a No. 1 starter—something the team badly needed as it began its first-to-fourth fade last July. In his seven seasons in the NL with the Florida Marlins, Burnett posted a 3.73 ERA. In his six seasons in the AL with the Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays, it was 4.39.

- Yankees' mistake of signing A.J. made it worth high cost of trading him away NY Post: Saturday Feb 18
Yankees: Sure, they paid a steep price to erase their $82.5 million mistake, but Burnett is gone. His inconsistency will overshadow his flashes of brilliance (Game 2 of the 2009 World Series) and his durability (at least 32 starts in each of the past three seasons), but the element of the unknown has been removed. Yankees fans will breathe easier, as will the coaching staff. And the team now has the financial flexibility to sign a DH (Raul Ibanez) and a backup infielder (Eric Chavez).
Phil Hughes: Because New York had seven starters for five rotation spots, there is a good chance Hughes would have been banished to the bullpen or even traded had Burnett stuck around. He still isn't a lock for the starting five—Freddy Garcia is his prime competition—but Hughes' future with the Yankees suddenly looks a lot brighter.
Burnett: Maybe he wasn't appreciated in New York and maybe he was more of a fallback option than a trusted starter in the postseason, but at least he was part of a winning franchise. The only way he will sniff the playoffs in 2012 is if he is flipped to a contender prior to the July 31 nonwaiver trading deadline. Remember, the Pirates' 19 consecutive losing seasons is the longest stretch of futility among the four major pro sports leagues in North America.
AL East hitters: Since Burnett joined the Yankees in 2009, he is 13-17 with a 5.58 ERA against the other teams in the division. He has allowed a .274 batting average and an .842 OPS with just a 212/108 strikeout-to-walk ratio against the Blue Jays, Tampa Bay Rays, Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles. The Red Sox will miss him most, as he was just 1-4 with a 7.29 ERA against them in 10 starts.
Whipped-cream sales in the Big Apple: Burnett wasn't popular with New York fans, but he was a good teammate and a solid clubhouse presence. He gained notoriety for his postgame attacks, going undetected as he slammed each night's hero with a well-timed whipped-cream pie to the face. He and former teammate Johnny Damon each played a large part in loosening up what once was considered a far too tense clubhouse.

"Achieving the fullest possible accounting of Americans missing in action is of the highest national priority," said Alan Liotta, acting deputy assistant secretary of Defense for POW/Missing Personnel Affairs. "The support we received from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam enabled us to identify this serviceman, and we look forward to continued cooperation."
On June 8, 1967, Apodaca and Capt. Jon T. Busch were flying an armed reconnaissance mission over Quang Binh province, North Vietnam, when their F-4C Phantom was struck by enemy fire. Other U.S. aircrews in the area reported receiving a radio transmission from Apodaca that he had lost use of the hydraulic system on his aircraft. Soon after, a weak emergency beeper signal was heard, but no aircrew saw where Apodaca's plane might have crashed. A visual and electronic search of the area continued into the next day without results.
In July 1988, the Socialist Republic of Vietnam turned over to the United States 25 boxes of remains believed to be those of missing American servicemen. Among those were remains associated with Apodaca and Busch as well as an identification tag for Maj. Apodaca. From those remains, Busch was later identified, but not Apodaca.
Later that year, a joint U.S.-Vietnamese team led by the Joint Task Force-Full Accounting interviewed inhabitants of Quang Binh province who described a 1967 crash which appeared to correlate to the loss of Apodaca and Busch. One of the witnesses said he had earlier in the year turned over some remains and an identification tag to local authorities. Those were included in the remains repatriated in July 1988. The joint team traveled to the suspected crash site, but was unable to confirm its exact location.
In April 1989, the Vietnamese turned over another 21 boxes of remains and their records indicated that Apodaca's was among them. Another joint team in 1991 examined documents in Quang Binh province that added more detail about the crash, as well as burial information on the two crew members. Over the course of the next decade, search teams continued to investigate leads while scientists worked with the remains that had been turned over by the Vietnamese.
In 1999, CILHI scientists completed a forensic analysis of the remains that were turned over by the Vietnamese in 1989, and confirmed Apodaca's identification through the use of mitochondrial DNA.
Apodaca's remains will returned to his family for burial with full military honors.

- Bloodlust/Heroism will, again, stack with Icy Veins.
- Bloodlust/Heroism will not stack with [the new] Power Infusion, however.
For those that don't know about Shamans, Bloodlust and Heroism are Shaman abilities (Bloodlust is the name of the spell for the Horde, Heroism is the name of the spell for the Alliance) that decrease casting time by 30% for 40 seconds. It is often used in raids to get that extra "umpf" necessary to get a boss down quickly.
Icy Veins is a Mage talent based spell that decreases casting time by 20% for 20 seconds (and increase the chance the target will freeze by 20%). The combination of Bloodlust/Heroism and Icy Veins is a very potent combination.
Power Infusion is a Priest talent that will have some changes come patch 2.4. It will now decrease casting time by 20% as well as decrease the mana cost by 20%. It's interesting that Blizzard decided to allow the stacking with Mages, but not with priests. The difference in the two spells is that Power Infusion can be cast on other targets, while Icy Veins can only be cast on yourself. Indeed, this follows with what Tharfor said in his post (which Drysc left out).
What do you think of these changes? Any major issue with them?

Be excited for what you are about to watch — and I'm speaking both to people who haven't yet and have already watched the extended preview of the second season of Basketball Wives above (since the latter group will undoubtedly want to watch it again). I don't think you're ready for this drama. Seriously, everything I've seen from Basketball Wives 2 (premiering Sunday, Dec. 12 at 8/7c) has topped the first season in every way. I'd go as far as to call it a masterpiece of misery and conflict. Tami Roman (returning to reality TV 17 years after on her stint on the second season of The Real World) is a complete blessing to this cast. Good TV comes out of this woman's pores. And rage! Check out the fist fight between her and Evelyn Lozada that closes out this supertrailer. Check out Evelyn's new-found rivalry with Suzi (ignited by Star Jones' ex Al Reynolds, of all people!). Check out Evelyn's…interesting walk up the stairs with love interest Chad Ochocinco (the rumors were true!). Check out the disgust on the faces of Evelyn and Royce at a bullfight in Spain:
Check out Shaunie joining the group full time (and fitting right in!). And Jennifer's divorce drama! Check it all out, let it all sink in and seriously be excited for December 12.

By Christian De La Rosa
SAN DIEGO (KSWB) – Playing a game cost a 15-year-old California teen his life, according to police. Now officers are warning parents and students so it won't happen again.
Police in Chula Vista, California said on Tuesday night 15-year-old David Nuno was watching a YouTube video that showed how to make yourself pass out.
"When he passed out he fell forward and landed on a glass tumbler, when he landed the tumbler shattered and the glass cut his neck," said Chula Vista Police Capt. Gary Wedge.
The teenager regained consciousness and was taken to the hospital where he later died.
"I received the phone call, I was really hurt, you know, on the inside. I just couldn't believe it happened," Jamar Adams, the victim's friend.
Police want parents and student to understand the danger associated with playing along with these YouTube videos.
"It's not realistic for parents to be with their kids 24/7. It is critical that they share with them, incidents such as this and discuss with their kids really the risks involved in engaging in some of these behaviors that are readily available on the internet," Capt. Wedge said.

LSU is an equal
LSU Today Flagship Faculty
What was your previous position and where?I was professor and chair of the Department of Curriculum & Instruction at the University of New Orleans. I served on the faculty there for 14 years.
What brought you to LSU?I came to LSU after Hurricane Katrina when a position in my specific field of study — early literacy — became available. I was not conducting a job search, but couldn't pass up an opportunity to join the faculty at the flagship and focus my energies on scholarship and teaching. I was quite happy to leave administration behind!
What is your research interest?My research area is early literacy development. While I have worked extensively with teachers to investigate writing development in kindergarten through second grade, my primary focus in the past few years has been on preschool children's literacy and professional development for preschool teachers.
What do you hope to accomplish at LSU?I enjoy working with both undergraduate and graduate students to help build their understanding of the process of literacy development, and equip them to critically evaluate programs and policies that drive literacy instruction in schools. I also hope to expand my own research efforts by taking advantage of the incredible support offered by the College of Education's Office of Sponsored Projects.
What do you enjoy most about LSU?I most enjoy the camaraderie with other faculty members — in my own college and also campus wide. I got involved with the Faculty Senate as a way to work with colleagues from other colleges. I got that and more when I was elected to the Faculty Senate Executive Committee as a new member-at-large. As a result, I have enjoyed a very rapid education about many aspects of LSU and the wonderful people who work here.
What are your major accomplishments?I am most pleased to have been awarded a $3.6 million Early Reading First grant from the U.S. Department of Education to enhance the literacy environment of seven preschool classrooms in New Orleans public schools. At the end of two years to date, we have brought about significant gains in children's readiness for kindergarten, with our 4-year-olds in high poverty schools outperforming the benchmarks set by the federal government. My collaborator at the University of New Orleans, April Bedford, and I have developed a play-based, developmentally appropriate model for preschool literacy development that we are working to have replicated in other preschool programs.

CCCD (The Album)
"Although I have released previous recordings, I have chosen to call this my solo debut because with this work I have truly found my personal voice as an artist. It features an extended excerpt from a recording that was originally over one hour and 45 minutes long and was recorded live in one take using live looping in concept and method. The length of the original piece is typical of my creative process, and is the result of an improvisational flow. As I explore, learn and practice, I am reaching for that point where stream of consciousness takes over. When this happens, work becomes play, and I can build, deconstruct, rebuild, create and discover, free from inhibitions and straight from the heart. Often it is like walking a tightrope without a safety net or a destination. Over the years I have imagined, dreamed, experimented, practiced, and performed live looping, and yet continue to discover not only its vast creative possibilities, but a deeper understanding and love of music, sound, and silence." (Randolf Arriola 2011)

Capacitors do not store energy other than for immediate discharge. In that sense, this is a hybrid vehicle because the vehicle would have no electric-only driving range (i.e. it is completely reliant on its ICE for motivation). Rather the electric serves as a means to transfer power by wire instead of a mechanical linkage from the engine to the wheels (drive shaft, chain, or transmission/transaxle).

King boys soccer runs roughshod over G-P
Wildcats Fernandez scores twice in King triumph
PORTLAND - Fresh off its championship run in the Buda Hays Rebel Cup tournament last week, the King boys soccer team didn't let up against Gregory-Portland on Tuesday.
Spanish exchange student Sergio Fernandez scored twice in the first half to lead the Mustangs in a 6-0 victory at Ray Akins Wildcat Stadium. Felix Omoruyi, Eric Mares, Julian Sanchez and Josh Cardenas each scored a goal for King, which remained unbeaten at 5-0.
"We're playing real well right now," said Mustangs coach Larry Mathys, whose team defeated Austin Akins 5-3 to win the Rebel Cup on Saturday. "I think we still need to tighten up some things defensively, but for the most part I'm real pleased. We're putting the ball in the back of the net and controlling the game. The kids have bought into the system. I'm a very demanding coach and very hard on the kids, but when they buy into the system you're going to have good results."
It took a while for King to get going in Tuesday's frigid conditions, but Omoruyi eventually scored at the 18:47 mark of the first half. Exactly six minutes later, Fernandez scored on a header after a perfectly placed cross from Julian Sanchez.
Leading 2-0, Fernandez scored again just before halftime to give the Mustangs a 3-0 advantage.
Two quick-strike goals in the opening minutes of each half put the Gregory-Portland girls soccer team in control against King. It took the Mustangs the same amount of time to reverse the momentum.
King (2-2-1) scored twice during a three-minute span during the second half to forge a 2-2 stalemate in the nondistrict matchup at Ray Akins Wildcat Stadium. All the Mustangs had to do was keep plugging away.
"It was mostly about putting passes together and keeping the ball on the ground and keeping a positive attitude," King coach Rebecca Armstrong. "We know if we keep working hard good things are going to come. Eventually those two goals came. We just keep pushing, putting high pressure and playing good defense in the back."
It didn't take the Wildcats (3-1-1) long to find the back of the net, with Annette Guzman scoring on a lob shot less than a minute into the game. G-P kept its 1-0 advantage until halftime, although the Mustangs did put together two scoring threats late in the first half.
The Mustangs opened the second half much like the first, only this time it took a few minutes longer for the offense to get going. Alyssa Garcia's goal at the 36:27 mark put G-P in front 2-0, but it also seemed to rejuvenate King's slumping attack.
Mariah Delagarza answered with a shot off the crossbar only seconds after Garcia's goal. She quickly made up for the miss, scoring with 35:04 left on the clock to bring the Mustangs within 2-1.
Another King shot bounced off the crossbar less than three minutes later. Stefani Sevilla easily knocked in the rebound to tie the score 2-2.
The Mustangs went on to hit the crossbar a third time, while another shot sailed right over the goal. Only two weeks into the season, Armstrong wants to start turning those near misses into goals.
"I told the girls we're going to go home and get back to work on putting the ball in the back of the net," Armstrong said. "We just have to finish our shots on goal. We have to be in the right place at the right time. The rest of it is just going to come."
The Wildcats, meanwhile, want to avoid more second-half letdowns.
"I'm not too sure how things fell apart," G-P coach Jackie Vasquez said. "We started off the first part of the game phenomenal. It was one of the better games we've played so far. We were confident. The passing was there, the communication was there. The second half started off the same way, but then I'm not real sure what happened. We've been working on trying to play a little bit tighter on defense and not leave too many gaps. The passing wasn't there and we had some bad touches. For some reason we just could not control the ball."

Microgel particles based on N-isopropylacrylamide and acrylic acid have been synthesized using emulsifier-free radical precipitation polymerization without a cross-linking agent. The resulting particles display very low modulus with pH-, ionic strength-, and thermo-sensitivity. The absence of a cross-linking agent results in dramatic volume \newline shrinkage and expansion in response to the aforementioned stimuli. We study the concentration and temperature dependent rheology of concentrated dispersions of these particles. Several features emerge, including a marked dependence of the yield strain on temperature as well as aging of the complex viscosity over time. We discuss these results in the context of the rheology of stiff particles and that of branched polymer solutions.
