Liberal icon Daniel Patrick Moynihan once said, "You're entitled to your own opinions, but you're not entitled to your own facts." But that was decades ago, and today more leftists than ever have graduated from confusion to delusion and believe they're entitled to their own fiction.
A good example is naturalist David Attenborough, who recently complained that man is a plague upon our planet. He warns that our burgeoning population will ensure that we consume the world's resources like a sun-occluding swarm of high-tech locusts. Writes The Telegraph:
"We are a plague on the Earth. It's coming home to roost over the next 50 years or so. It's not just climate change; it's sheer space, places to grow food for this enormous horde. Either we limit our population growth or the natural world will do it for us, and the natural world is doing it for us right now," he [Attenborough] told the Radio Times.
If brevity is the soul of not just wit but also delusion, we have a winner here. Four sentences, four falsehoods/fallacies — a couple of which are getting a bit stale. There is that old leftist Malthusian starvation saw that seems to have more lives than a cat; there is the man-made idea of man-made climate change; and there is what logically follows from these two assumptions, that humans are a "plague" (well, some humans are, anyway). But then there's what is simply a falsehood: the notion that the world's population is exploding.
The truth is just the opposite: on the horizon is a population implosion, a long understood phenomenon explored superbly in the documentary Demographic Winter. This may seem counter-intuitive, raised as we were on Soylent Green nightmares, but "population bomb" scenarios are your silver pony-tailed grandfather's alarmism. And here are the facts:

Equipment from Newton Falls Fine Paper was sold piecemeal at auction Thursday, reducing the chance that the mill will operate again.
Town of Fine Supervisor Mark C. Hall, a member of the St. Lawrence County Industrial Development Agency, attended part of the sale that started at 11 a.m. in Syracuse.
The plants one operating paper machine brought a total of $442,000 in bids sold as individual parts, Mr. Hall said. There were no bids to buy the machine as a whole unit.
The second paper machine, which was not in service when the plant was closed in 2010 by Scotia Investments, Halifax, Nova Scotia, had a top bid as a single lot of $150,000, Mr. Hall said.
Even after Scotia Investments announced the sale, the IDA worked to broker a deal that would have kept the plant available for a buyer to operate.
We have been very actively engaged in discussions with Scotia and their representatives to find a scenario under which the mill could remain intact and find a path toward continued operation, IDA Executive Director Patrick J. Kelly said Thursday while the sale was still going on. At this point, we should wait and see what remains after the auction and whether any productive capacity is left. We need to have a full understanding of the consequence of todays event.
Robert G. Patzelt, vice president of corporate development for Scotia, the parent company of the Newton Falls plant, was not available for comment on whether his company was satisfied with the sale.
A representative of Continental Plants Group said the sale was still going on at 5 p.m. and that some items which he declined to name had not sold for lack of an adequate bid.
Scotia and its subsidiary, Minas Basin Pulp and Power, initially made the mill a success, reopening it in 2007 after a seven-year shutdown. But the mill ran into problems in 2010 and closed. The company had a restart plan which failed to materialize and company officials put the plant back on the market last year.
The real estate, including the 15-acre manufacturing site and about 4,000 more acres of land, also is offered for sale.
The state Department of Environmental Conservation had no immediate comment on requirements it would have for removing equipment from the property.

CLEVELAND -- The Attorney General's investigation found no weapons and no conclusive evidence to prove either Malissa Williams nor Timothy Russell fired at the pursuing officers.
You could argue all police really had to fear were themselves.
So what was it that caused 13 officers to shoot so many times? We hear the reasons in their own words.
After a 22-minute chase, pursuing officers told investigators they arrived on the scene with the idea one or both suspects were armed , pointed weapons during the chase and fired a gun to start it.
Officer Wilfredo Diaz told investigators the passenger reached toward something, produced what he perceived as a gun.
Officer Scott Sistek feared he would be struck by the suspect's vehicle.
Det. William Salupo heard gunfire and saw Sistek go to the ground, believing he had been run over.
Officer Cynthia Moore, believing the subjects were firing at her, returned fire through the windshield of her cruiser.
Partner, Officer Michael Brelo said, "I've never been so afraid in my life." He climbed on top of cruiser CPD 238 and fired downward through the windshield.
Officer Brian Sabolik thought he was in the suspects' line of fire. He shot two rounds.
Officer Michael Farley described the scene as "the scariest thing that I've seen in my whole life."
Officer Randy Patrick was taking fire. He got up and let some rounds off.
Officer Paul Box said, "it was a major shootout." Something hit Officer Box in the vest. He felt it but thought it might be a ricochet.
Detective Michael Rinkus believed he saw an officer fall.
Detective Michael Demchak believed the suspects were wearing bulletproof vests. He thought to himself, "The battle was on. These guys were shooting it out."
Partner detective Erin O'Donell thought the driver was shooting and the passenger reloading.
And detective Christopher Ereg said someone wason the radio saying, "they're shooting at us or shooting at officers."
Attorney General Mike DeWine acknowledged the difficulty for police to make life-and-death decisions in real time.
After interviewing the officers involved, DeWine says he is certain each was convinced they were being fired on by the suspects.

Profiling cancer cell-line sensitivities with small molecules
an NCI CTD2 Network project
Several protein kinase-targeting drugs are yielding high clinical response rates when matched to cancer patients with specific genomic alterations in their cancers. Several other cancer drugs yield similarly high response rates within a particular cancer lineage. These clinical successes have prompted our efforts to identify more systematically additional genetic and lineage context-dependent small-molecule sensitivities.
We have generated a novel 'Informer Set' of small-molecule probes and drugs that each selectively target a distinct node in cell circuitry and that collectively modulate a broad array of cell processes. By profiling the impact of this small-molecule collection on a panel of cancer cell lines for which extensive genetic characterizations are publicly available, we have generated a dataset that can be used to identify comprehensively relationships between genetic and lineage features of human cancer cell lines and small-molecule sensitivities.
Please cite our cancer cell-line profiling Resource by referencing:
The Cancer Therapeutics Response Portal was developed by researchers at the Center for the Science of Therapeutics at the Broad Institute and is sponsored in part by the NCI's Cancer Target Discovery and Development Network.
Complementary Resources
The National Cancer Institute's CTD2 Network maintains an Open-Access Data Matrix that makes available raw data downloads from member Centers, including all raw sensitivity and enrichment data and other supporting information from the Broad related to this portal.
The Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia provides public access to genomic data, analysis and visualization for about 1000 cell lines.
The Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer provides public access to data on the sensitivity of genomically characterized cancer cell lines to select compounds.
Project Achilles is a systematic effort aimed at identifying and cataloging genetic vulnerabilities across hundreds of genomically characterized cancer cell lines.
Small Molecules
Enriched Features
The Cancer Therapeutics Response Portal provides open access to the results obtained through quantitatively measuring the sensitivity of 242 genetically characterized cancer-cell lines to a 354-member 'Informer Set' of small-molecule probes and drugs. Statistically significant correlations identified between the genetic and lineage features of the cell lines and small-molecule sensitivities are accessible through the portal. With this dataset, users can mine for genetic correlations in a lineage-specific context and control for potential confounding factors. We anticipate continuing to expand the dataset in the portal, providing a living resource for the cancer-research community. We hope that the Portal can be used to develop novel therapeutic hypotheses and to accelerate future discovery of drugs matched to patients based on their cancer genotype and lineage.

NEWPORT–North Country came out swinging early, winning three of their first four matches, but Mount Mansfield's Lady Cougars picked up wins in the final three matches to earn the 4-3 victory in girls tennis on Monday.
"This was a very competitive match," said coach Marie George.
Win number one came off the racquets of Micheala Stanley and Doyen Doa as they took the number two doubles match, coming back from a 3-6 loss in the first set to force the tiebreaker and get the "W."
It was their first time playing together and after the first set they settled down and came through for the team.
"It was a struggle, but we worked together and pulled it off," said Stanley.
Annie Arcoleo put the Falcons up 2-0 with her 7-6, 6-3 win over Remy Salvas.
Mount Mansfield closed the gap to 2-1 with Braeden Hughes 6-2, 6-2 win over Carlie Diette.
In the number three spot India Bluett played what George describes as "her usual long match" winning the first set easily 6-1.
Her opponent Hailey Garrison was not going to go quietly, rallying back to take the second set 6-4. In the tiebreaker Bluett and Garrison went back and forth, but in the end the Falcon freshman had the edge, winning 10-7, and the lead was back to 2 for North Country.
The competitive sister act of Celia and Julia Dunn tied the match at 3's as Celia in the number one and Julia the number two defeated Kelsey O'Donnell and Rhiannon Rosamillia respectively.
The balance of the match was left in the hands of the number one doubles players.
Moriah Lafoe and Sonya Hinton, who have playing so well as of late for the Falcons, and Lauren Nelson and Karly Fisher of Mount Mansfield.
North Country came up short this day, as the Cougars won the match going away 7-5, 6-2.
The girls will back at Prouty Beach today as it is an all-Orleans County showdown between North Country and Lake Region.

Old Sneakers wrote:Because it is a HUGE condition under which every baseball franchise operates under.
Josh Hamilton is a fine slugger but he's likely peaked and his play in the field is lack-luster. Honestly I would rather see the team pick up a quality starting pitcher, add pieces that help manufacture runs and fill other needs for the same money that Hamilton would cost. The budget is a consideration for next season just as much as it is for subsequent seasons.
I haven't mentioned Hamilton once but I do agree that the team is better off going in a different direction.

Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
A recently started online petition is requesting that the four West Webster firefighters shot on Christmas Eve be honored with the Medal of Freedom.
The petition was posted Dec. 28 on a government website by Paul H. It seeks the recognition for Webster Police Lt. Michael Chiapperini, Tomasz Kaczowka, Joseph Hofstetter and Theodore Scardino, the volunteer firefighters who were shot while answering a call for assistance Dec. 24, 2012.
Michael Chiapperini and Tomasz Kaczowka were killed. Joseph Hofstetter and Theodore Scardino were injured in the shooting.
The Medal of Freedom is the "nation's highest civilian honor to individuals who made especially meritorious contributions to security or national interests of the United States, to world peace, or to cultural or other significant public or private endeavors."
The petition has already received thousands of signatures. In order for it to be reviewed by a White House staff member it must receive 25,000 signatures, according to the website (http://1.usa.gov/TLIShk).

April Schools' Day: School Canceled Thanks to IT System Hack
Today in international tech news: In Australia, someone -- presumably an enterprising student -- wormed into a school's IT system and penned messages to parents saying the school had been damaged by a fire. Also: New Snowden revelations show German teleports in the crosshairs; Twitter purchases a pair of European TV analytics firms; and Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba invests in a department store operator.
Apr 1, 2014 12:38 PM PT
Well, an A for creativity.
In Australia, someone penetrated a high school's IT system and penned text messages and emails to parents saying that the school had been badly damaged by a fire and was not fit for students.
There was no truth to the message, however -- just a bit of April Fools' Day shenanigans.
The local Department of Education and Communities claims that an unknown person wiggled into the school's IT systems and shot out the messages early Tuesday morning. The phone numbers and email addresses were culled from a list of parents who signed up to receive important information.
The school district said it would report the incident to police, citing data protection concerns.

Britain's GCHQ Targeted German 'Teleports'
Britain's Government Communications Headquarters, or GCHQ, has targeted German teleports, which provide Internet and telephone services to remote places such as oil drilling platforms, mines, foreign outposts and the like.
GCHQ -- which is akin to the U.S. National Security Agency -- snooped on employees at several German companies and infiltrated their networks, according to a report from Germany's Der Spiegel magazine, which cites Edward Snowden documents.
The agency wanted to develop an "in-depth knowledge of key satellite IP service providers in Germany," according to one secret document obtained by Der Spiegel.
German companies Stellar, Cetel and IABG all were mentioned by name in the documents, which also suggest that employees at said companies should be monitored.

Twitter Purchases European Analytics Companies
Twitter purchased a pair of TV analytics companies in Europe -- France's Mesagraph, and UK-based SecondSynch. Teams from both Mesagraph and SecondSynch will join Twitter's office in London.
The acquisitions reflect Twitter's ambition "to become an essential social complement to TV viewing, a core strategy that has been given priority in the U.S.," according to The Wall Street Journal.

Alibaba Invests in Department Store
Chinese e-commerce behemoth Alibaba announced that it will pony up US$700 million for a minority stake in a Chinese department store operator, marking something of a reverse migration from online to traditional retail.
The move will net Alibaba a stake in Intime Retail Group, which runs three dozen departments stores and shopping centers in China.
Alibaba last month announced that it had set the wheels in motion for a U.S. initial public offering. It could be the biggest-ever technology IPO -- even more than the $16 billion Facebook nabbed in 2012.
Alibaba does not appear to have any interest in running department stores but instead is trying to diversify its e-commerce offerings.
According to the specs of the deal, Alibaba will acquire a 10 percent stake in Intime, thanks to a purchase of 220 million new shares at $7.53 a pop -- a 13.7 percent discount on the stock's previous trading price. Intime will issue nearly $4 billion worth of convertible bonds to Alibaba, which can be exchanged for 489.6 million shares -- an additional stake of roughly 25 percent.

Kidney and Urologic Diseases
There are many organizations who provide support for patients and medical professionals. View the full list of Kidney and Urologic Disease Organizations. (PDF, 345 KB)
An ectopic kidney is a birth defect in which a kidney is located below, above, or on the opposite side of its usual position. About one in 900 people has an ectopic kidney.1
1Bauer SB. Anomalies of the upper urinary tract. In: Wein A, ed. Campbell-Walsh Urology. 9th ed. Philadelphia: Saunders Elsevier; 2007: 3269–3304.
The kidneys are two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Every minute, a person's kidneys filter about 3 ounces of blood, removing wastes and extra water. The wastes and extra water make up the 1 to 2 quarts of urine a person produces each day. The urine flows to the bladder through tubes called ureters where it is stored until being released through urination.
The kidneys remove wastes and extra water from the blood to form urine. Urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder through the ureters.
During fetal development, a baby's kidneys first appear as buds inside the pelvis—the bowl-shaped bone that supports the spine and holds up the digestive, urinary, and reproductive organs—near the bladder. As the kidneys develop, they move gradually toward their usual position in the back near the rib cage. Sometimes, one of the kidneys remains in the pelvis or stops moving before it reaches its usual position. In other cases, the kidney moves higher than the usual position. Rarely does a child have two ectopic kidneys.
An ectopic kidney may remain in the pelvis, near the bladder.
An ectopic kidney may cross over and become fused with the other kidney.
Most kidneys move toward the rib cage, but one may cross over so that both kidneys are on the same side of the body. When a crossover occurs, the two kidneys often grow together and become fused.
Factors that may lead to an ectopic kidney include
An ectopic kidney may not cause any symptoms and may function normally, even though it is not in its usual position. Many people have an ectopic kidney and do not discover it until they have tests done for other reasons. Sometimes, a health care provider may discover an ectopic kidney after feeling a lump in the abdomen during an examination. In other cases, an ectopic kidney may cause abdominal pain or urinary problems.
Possible complications of an ectopic kidney include problems with urine drainage from that kidney. Sometimes, urine can even flow backwards from the bladder to the kidney, a problem called vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Read more about VUR in Vesicoureteral Reflux.
Abnormal urine flow and the placement of the ectopic kidney can lead to various problems:
Infection. Normally, urine flow washes out bacteria and keeps them from growing in the kidneys and urinary tract. When a kidney is out of the usual position, urine may get trapped in the ureter or in the kidney itself. Urine that remains in the urinary tract gives bacteria the chance to grow and spread. Symptoms of a urinary tract infection include frequent or painful urination, back or abdominal pain, fever, chills, and cloudy or foul-smelling urine.
Stones. Urinary stones form from substances found in the urine, such as calcium and oxalate. When urine remains in the urinary tract for too long, the risk that these substances will have time to form stones is increased. Symptoms of urinary stones include extreme pain in the back, side, or pelvis; blood in the urine; fever or chills; vomiting; and a burning feeling during urination.
Kidney damage. If urine backs up all the way to the kidney, damage to the kidney can occur. As a result, the kidney can't filter wastes and extra water from the blood. One ectopic kidney, even when it has no function, will not cause kidney failure. The other kidney can usually perform the functions of two healthy kidneys. Total kidney failure happens only in rare cases when both kidneys are damaged.
Trauma. If the ectopic kidney is in the lower abdomen or pelvis, it may be susceptible to injury from blunt trauma. People with an ectopic kidney who want to participate in body contact sports may want to wear protective gear.
A health care provider may use one or more of the following imaging tests to diagnose an ectopic kidney:
Ultrasound. An ultrasound uses a device, called a transducer, that bounces safe, painless sound waves off organs to create an image of their structure. The procedure is performed in a health care provider's office, outpatient center, or hospital by a specially trained technician, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist—a doctor who specializes in medical imaging; anesthesia is not needed. The images can show the location of the kidneys.
Intravenous pyelogram (IVP). An IVP is an x ray of the urinary tract. A special dye, called contrast medium, is injected into a vein in the person's arm, travels through the body to the kidneys, and makes urine visible on the x ray. The procedure is performed in a health care provider's office, outpatient center, or hospital by an x-ray technician, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist; anesthesia is not needed. An IVP can show a blockage in the urinary tract. In children, ultrasounds are usually done instead of IVPs.
Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG). A VCUG is an x-ray image of the bladder and urethra taken while the bladder is full and during urination, also called voiding. The bladder and urethra are filled with contrast medium to make the structures clearly visible on the x-ray images. The x-ray machine captures images of the contrast medium while the bladder is full and when the person urinates. The procedure is performed in a health care provider's office, outpatient center, or hospital by an x-ray technician supervised by a radiologist, who then interprets the images. Anesthesia is not needed, but sedation may be used for some people. The test can show abnormalities of the inside of the urethra and bladder and whether urine is backing up toward the kidneys during urination.
Radionuclide scan. A radionuclide scan is an imaging technique that relies on the detection of small amounts of radiation after injection of radioactive chemicals. Because the dose of the radioactive chemicals is small, the risk of causing damage to cells is low. Special cameras and computers are used to create images of the radioactive chemicals as they pass through the kidneys. The procedure is performed in a health care provider's office, outpatient center, or hospital by a specially trained technician, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist; anesthesia is not needed. This test can show the location of an ectopic kidney and whether the ureters are blocked.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI machines use radio waves and magnets to produce detailed pictures of the body's internal organs and soft tissues without using x rays. An MRI may include the injection of contrast medium. With most MRI machines, the person lies on a table that slides into a tunnel-shaped device that may be open ended or closed at one end; some newer machines are designed to allow the person to lie in a more open space. The procedure is performed in an outpatient center or hospital by a specially trained technician, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist; anesthesia is not needed though light sedation may be used for people with a fear of confined spaces. MRIs can show the location of the kidneys.
In addition to imaging tests, blood tests may be done to determine how well the kidneys are working. These tests are almost always normal in people with an ectopic kidney, even if it is badly damaged, because the other kidney usually has completely normal function.
No treatment for an ectopic kidney is needed if urinary function is normal and no blockage of the urinary tract is present.
If tests show an obstruction, surgery may be needed to correct the position of the kidney to allow for better drainage of urine. Reflux can be corrected by surgery to alter the ureter or injection of a gellike liquid into the bladder wall near the opening of the ureter.
If extensive kidney damage has occurred, surgery may be needed to remove the kidney. As long as the other kidney is working properly, losing one kidney should have no adverse health effects. Read more in Solitary Kidney.
With the right testing and treatment, if needed, an ectopic kidney should cause no serious long-term health problems.
Eating, diet, and nutrition have not been shown to play a role in causing or preventing an ectopic kidney.
Researchers from universities and Government agencies are working to understand the causes of kidney and urinary tract birth defects and to find more effective treatments. Through its Pediatric Urology Program, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) funds research into bladder and urinary tract development. Additionally, the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development has established the Birth Defects Initiative to study the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying the developmental processes of the fetus.
Participants in clinical trials can play a more active role in their own health care, gain access to new research treatments before they are widely available, and help others by contributing to medical research. For information about current studies, visit www.ClinicalTrials.gov.

In China, the Internet has provided a new kind of medium for vigilantes to work together to dole out punishments to perceived offenders. This "human-flesh search engine", as an article in the New York Times calls it, doesn't work like a conventional Internet search. Instead, it is a vast network of online users who work together to reveal the location and personal details of people who the users feel have violated a norm. In one example, Internet users from all over China worked together to collect the personal data of a woman who posted a video on the internet of her stomping a kitten to death under her spiked heels. After discovering her location, the vast network of users encouraged everyone who came in contact to her to assist in driving her out-of-town, ruining her business, and destroying her life. The article describes a number of examples of offenders (accused of committing a wide variety of perceived "crimes") all being punished severely through this network and often being unable to return to work, their homes, or normal life after the "search engine" finds "justice".
Although this type of mass justice seeking behaviour is relatively unstudied, it has interesting implications for a number of research areas like social identity, bullying behavior, collective action, social rejection, and anger and aggression. When people witness behavior that violates norms and invokes moral outrage, they often desire justice. According to social psychologists, there are different types of justice people can seek when they witness a crime, they include retributive justice (punishment for the offender) and compensatory justice (compensation – money and apology etc. for the victim). Interestingly, in this Chinese human network, the justice form doled out by online avengers is always a harsh punishment for the offender. Nobody in the network is encouraging others to seek compensation for the victims.
In line with this, one set of studies found that when people "observe" a crime, but are not close to the victim, they prefer a retributive type of justice to a compensatory type. The less close the bystander is to the victim, the more they prefer punishment to compensation. When you are dealing with an online network of avengers who likely don't even know each other, much less the victim, its easy to see how this punishment response could escalate as the networks extends to more distant users. Furthermore, given that it's all online, there is an added sense of anonymity for the justice seekers. All of these aspects make the "human search engine" an interesting phenomenon for social psychologists to unravel.

Colorado Springs recycles 20 tons in first quarter of public space recycling program
The recycling program is free of cost to the City and taxpayers; made possible by the City?s partnership with Greener Corners, a full-service recycling organization that sells sponsorships on the sides of the recycling bins to cover the cost of the program and earn some additional revenue for the City.
"Colorado Springs should be proud of the huge strides we are taking to become a more sustainable city with the help of the Greener Corners recycling program," says Steve Bach, Mayor. "To go from basically zero public space recycling to diverting 20 tons of recyclables in four months is quite an accomplishment, and at no cost to the city - it's a win-win." The City will present the program as a model for other communities with Greener Corners staff at this year's Colorado Association for Recycling's annual meeting.
The partnership with Greener Corners came about as part of the city's contract with Active Network to establish asset marketing programs with positive revenue streams and partnerships.
Greener Corners has opened a local office in downtown Colorado Springs, and is forging collaborations with numerous organizations and businesses, including Boy Scouts, Pikes Peak Sustainability Business Network, the Chamber of Commerce, Greener Cities Coalition and Waste Management. Recyclables are hauled along with trash by Waste Management, the City?s current contracted waste hauler.

Visitors to Princeton University's Prospect Gardens may be familiar with the cheerful orange marigolds, pops of pink petunias and bunches of begonias blooming around the lush grounds. What they may not know is that most flowers planted there and in other campus gardens get their start just down the road in the University's greenhouses.

Large energy users such as industrial facilities, hospitals, apartment complexes and universities seeking energy resiliency, stability in energy prices and the ability to operate independent of the grid are increasingly turning toward combined heat and power, or CHP, facilities to meet at least a portion of their energy needs.
Jun. 9, 2015
The most advanced microgrids use multiple fuel sources, multiple power-generating assets, energy storage, CHP production, and modern digital controls. They operate with an awareness of the real-time commodity costs of fuel and electricity.

Conveniently situated where the City gives way to the East End, South Place Hotel provides a base for visitors to explore, connect, or rejuvenate in the heart of modern London. Reflecting both the business needs and imaginative wit of its adjacent neighborhoods, South Place has been designed by Allies and Morrison architects with interiors by Conran + Partners. Owned and managed by D&D London, which operates high-class restaurants around the globe, South Place brings a restaurateur's perspective to the world of hotels. The public spaces are a vibrant mix of vintage and contemporary design and art, while the bedrooms emit an understated luxury. In each of the 80 bedrooms, guests will find individually chosen art pieces by contemporary London artists that form part of the hotel's extensive art collection. The focus on food and entertainment is evident throughout the hotel, creating an environment that is 'more meet than sleep'.
Allies and Morrison
South Place, the first hotel from restaurateurs D&D London and their partner, Frogmore, combines the business bustle of the nation's financial center with the creative eccentricity of one of London's hippest neighborhoods. Located near Liverpool Street Station, the hotel quietly absorbs the innate irregularities of the space with its consented U-shape and receptive, yet discerning façade that mirrors the buildings surrounding it. Conceived as two layers, the façade incorporates thermal insulation with glass against a dark, warm-colored metal, which play off one another in response to function and light.A carefully-crafted ground floor plan also allows 3 South Place restaurant and 3 South Place Bar to extend out onto the sidewalk for added interaction with the City's street scene.
Conran + Partners
Interior spaces at South Place—from its broad communal areas to the 80 bedrooms and suites—bear the aesthetic, award-winning signature of Conran + Partners, whose holistic practice embraces everything from master-planning and architecture to interior-, product- and graphic design. Specially commissioned artwork, including a wall of mechanical pixels, accents the hotel's lobby.
Rooms & Suites
No detail has been left unconsidered in the design of the 80 rooms, such as large Bang & Olufsen televisions and even a toaster to ensure that your breakfast is just right. High-thread-count cotton bed linens by Josephine Home add to the comfort, while concealed lighting seems to elevate the beds above the pure wool carpets. Modern, understated design, as well as the materials, colors, and textures in each room create a sense of place. The four room categories at South Place Hotel each provide the highest standard in technical features, ranging from individually controlled climate-zones to free Wi-Fi (found throughout the hotel). Business travelers are sure to appreciate the spacious work desk with recessed media hub and multinational sockets, as well as AV and IT connections and chairs by the Finnish-American designer Eero Saarinen.
Des Gunewerdana & David Loewi
Restaurant group D&D London owns and operates over 30 of the foremost restaurants in London, Paris, New York, and Tokyo. CEO and Chairman Des Gunewerdana created D&D along with managing director David Loewi in September 2006 when they led the buyout of Conran Restaurants. After a postgraduate degree in Swiss Hotel Training, Loewi has accumulated over 25 years of experience in the London hospitality industry, while the Sri Lankan-born Gunewerdana studied economics at Bristol University and is an expert on financing, property, and design. With South Place, their first hotel, the men have struck a balance between the business bustle of the nation's financial center and the creative eccentricity of one of London's hippest neighborhoods.

BUFFALO, NY - The three current owners of the Buffalo Sabres took the podium Thursday at Noon, making the official announcement that the team and all of its assets is being sold to Pennsylvania billionaire Terry Pegula.
Tom Golisano, Larry Quinn and Dan DiPofi met with the media. Terry Pegula was not in attendance. But it was stated that Pegula will be attending Friday's Sabres game in Pittsburgh.
"The Buffalo Sabres are being sold by this group of individuals, the three of us to a gentleman by the name of Terry Pegula. The very important thing to the city of Buffalo is that by contract Terry Pegula will be unable to ever move the team from the City of Buffalo."
Majority owner Golisano said he actually turned down an offer for the Sabres that was $70 million more than Pegula's offer, because it would have involved moving the team from Buffalo.
"We did receiver an offer from another individual and I'll give you the exact amount, that was 70 million dollars more than this transaction if we were willing to cooperate in moving the team to another city and we absolutely turned that down."
Golisano would not say which hopeful owner made the offer, or where they wanted to move the team.
The deal for the team is expected to be closed within the next 30 days. Golisano says that the NHL Board of Governors needs to approve the deal, which he expects to be a "slam dunk".
After that, the federal government needs to approve the transaction because of the amount of money involved. Golisano said the group needs to pay the Justice Department $100,000 to make sure the transaction doesn't create a monopoly. "Something the NHL process already does" according to Golisano; who made a strong political statement within the first few minutes of the conference.
Golisano said he was contacted by the Pennsylvania billionaire last year about selling the team, but after about a month of talks, turned down his offer. A few months later the owners approached Pegula again to see if he was still interested in the purchase.
Golisano went on to say a national project that he is involved in, that will be unveiled in 15 days, will be taking up more of his time. He describes the project as "governmental, not political". He also went on to say that he is becoming more involved in business dealings in Florida, spending more time in the south.
"Disinterest was not a factor in this sale at all," Golisano said, stating that he only missed about six games over his tenure on owner, watching either in person or on TV.
Channel 2 Sports Director Ed Kilgore asked about the role Pegula would have in the decision making for the team as they move forward in the sale. Minority owner Larry Quinn said Pegula has given them a list of players to keep, and they are keeping an eye on the spending that Pegula would ultimately be responsible for. But Quinn says in the meantime, the current owners will be making the majority of the decisions.
Another issue brought up is the criticism that the owners didn't spend enough on players for the team. Golisano contends that they spent just 10% lower than salary caps would allow. All three owners say they are proud of the work they have done with the team.
Golisano pointed out that season ticket sales have nearly doubled in their time as owners. He also highlighted the idea of the inaugural Winter Classic at Ralph Wilson Stadium, and the IIHF World Junior's as part of the team's ingenuity.
Golisano says he still has plenty of business interests in Western New York, especially the Rochester area. He also points out that he has family that still lives upstate. He said owning the Sabres was a good experience and that other opportunities to own a pro-sports franchise is "within the realm of possibilities."
Channel 2's Adam Benigni asked about the possibility of buying the Buffalo Bills if the team were ever up for sale.
"Would I be interested in the Bills? I think the key issue would be the level of concern I would have about them leaving the community and the higher the concern, the more interest I probably would have."
Minority owner Larry Quinn said that leaving the team the second time around was a much better feeling. Quinn also says he's leaving his position with the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corporation, as the group continues to work on the Canalside project. Quinn says he has told Pegula about the movement to develop the waterfront, but he doesn't know how involved the new owner will become in the project.
Golisano had these words of advice for the new owner: "get a thick skin."

Hollywood's Cutest Dads: See Who Made The Cut
- 1 of 28
The stylish dads in Hollywood often live in the shadow of their famous female counterparts, but since Father's Day is on the horizon, we felt it was high time to spotlight these fashionable--and, let's admit it, incredibly handsome--men. Whether they're on a school run or just spending quality time with their kids, these fellows do it in style. Today, we're paying homage to notables like David Beckham, Channing Tatum, and Orlando Bloom. We encourage you to check out our on-trend picks inspired by these celebs--and worthy of any dad! Click through our slideshow to shop them all.
- 2 of 28
David Beckham
Soccer extraordinaire David Beckham's style is as flawless as his wife Victoria's. From his red carpet looks (crisp, sharp suits) to off-duty outfits (rugged, laid-back separates), he's simply on-pitch every time.
- 3 of 28
Tom Brady
Off the field, footballer Tom Brady is perfectly polished with a dose of New England preppiness (after all, he's the Patriots' quarterback!). He often makes an on-trend touchdown in European sportswear separates, such as cardigans and shawl-collar sweaters, layered over button-down shirts.
- 4 of 28
Channing Tatum
Channing Tatum's guy-next-door style relies on a staple of perfectly fitted t-shirts, leather jackets, and a baseball cap or two. The result? An effortless all-American look we simply can't get enough of.
- 5 of 28
Ben Affleck
We adore Ben Affleck's casual, low-key style, but want to be clear the doting dad is anything but underdressed when he's out and about! Thanks to his affinity for plaid shirts, great pairs of jeans, and tailored outerwear, we think his aesthetic is as award-winning as his resume.
- 6 of 28
Chris Martin
During his downtime, rocker Chris Martin of Coldplay favors a sporty yet sleek feel. Zip-up jackets and hoodies with utility-inspired details, as well as cool street sneakers, inform his look. We're no scientist, but we'd say his outfit formula is fashionable indeed!
- 7 of 28
Tom Sturridge
Sienna Miller's fiancé, British actor Tom Sturridge, has the cool grunge look down pat: plenty of layered pieces, flannel shirts, jeans, and beanies and fedora hats.
- 8 of 28
Orlando Bloom
While Orlando Bloom's style is easygoing, his dapper British sensibilities often come into play. He'll slip on a smart-looking jacket and a classic pair of sunglasses to transform even the simplest t-shirt and jeans combo.
