The Master of Science in Urban Design Program is oriented to those who wish to expand upon their previous professional education and professional experience, as architects, landscape architects, city planners or civil engineers, and to enter urban design practices either in private firms or public agencies.
The MSUD Program offers an intensive and richly interdisciplinary experience, with required courses in urban design, architecture and city planning, with additional opportunities in civil and environmental engineering, real estate development, heritage preservation and other fields. Students in the MSUD Program are in daily contact with architecture and planning students and faculty throughout the College of Architecture.
Although the Master of Science in Urban Design is a new degree title, Georgia Tech has been offering a similar Master of Science in Architecture with a concentration in Urban Design for a number of year. Georgia Tech has been known as a leader in urban design education since 1969. The MSUD designated degree program begins a new chapter in urban design at Georgia Tech.
The MSUD Program is a small program – a maximum of eight to ten students from a variety of backgrounds are admitted each year. The MSUD Program requires a full-time commitment for twelve months. Participation in the Georgia Tech Graduate COOP Program or other employment is possible, but outside employment cannot consume more than 15 hours per week.
The photo section includes recent student work from the MSUD program.
Eligibility and Applications
Applicants to the MSUD Program are limited to those with prior accredited professional degrees in architecture (M.ARCH or B.ARCH), landscape architecture (BLA or MLA), City and Regional Planning (MCRP or equivalent), or Civil Engineering (BCE or equivalent). Professional degrees from other countries are acceptable with proper documentation with the understanding that the MSUD cannot serve, in itself, as a professional degree in the US. It is preferable that applicants have a year or more of professional experience.
Applicants must demonstrate their ability for graduate study in urban design by submitting the following in their application package:
- A design portfolio, including academic and professional work, demonstrating experience and ability to engage professional level urban design problems. The portfolio must be submitted in digital form.
- Graduate Record Examination scores, taken within the past 5 years, and professional degree grade point records and averages to demonstrate overall ability to engage graduate studies. In general, minimums are 60th percentile or higher for the GRE sections and 3.0 GPA or higher. GRE scores are required for all international applicants, regardless of the language of their first degree.
- Tests of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) scores, with a minimum scores of 600 (paper), 250 (computer) or 100 (Internet) are required for students whose first language is not English.
The MSUD Program only admits students for the fall semester, unless the student plans to participate in one of the COA urban design oriented international summer programs prior to the first semester in the MSUD Program.
The course of study for the Master of Science in Urban Design (MSUD) includes a set of required core courses, totaling 30 credit hours, and professional electives, totaling 9 credit hours. The total minimum credit hour requirement for the MSUD degree is 39 hours. Download the MSUD Handbook

Elective Courses
The 9 credits of elective courses are organized into six subject areas, reflecting important areas of urban design practice. Students will be advised to take these electives, either in concentrations or in distributed subjects, based on their prior professional degrees, professional experience and career interests. These elective areas are as follows:
- Urban Design History, Theory and Practice
These electives provide depth in several aspects of urban design history, theory and practice. These are especially appropriate for students with strong technical backgrounds, who wish to engage broader aspects of urban design practice.
- Sustainable Development
These electives provide an introduction, as well as policy and technical depth, to issues of sustainable urbanism from a variety of perspectives, ranging from building to city to regional and scales.
- Transportation Planning
These electives are courses in the existing Transportation Dual Degree Program between City and Regional Planning and Civil and Environmental Engineering. Students may also enroll, with permission, in other transportation planning and design courses in the Georgia Tech School of Civil and Environmental Engineering.
- Real Estate and Economic Development
These electives provide additional depth in real estate development and economic development. Students may also cross enroll, with permission, in the Georgia State University Robinson College of Business. In addition, students may select to complete the Real Estate Certificate Program at Georgia State University.
- Digital Media
Digital media is a rapidly growing need in urban design practice, especially the bridging among GIS, CAD, 3-D Modeling and Animation. The strengths in the COAGIS Center and the Imagine Lab provide substantial opportunities in this area, and these opportunities are expanding rapidly.
- Heritage Preservation
Heritage Preservation is an area of urban design practice that has not had significant academic attention. These electives are based on opportunities for students to cross enroll, with permission, at GSU for courses in the Heritage Preservation Program in the College of Arts and Sciences. In addition, students may select to complete the Historic Preservation Certificate Program at Georgia State University.
Residency and Minimum Credits
The program requires a minimum a calendar year of study, including fall, spring, and summer semesters. The summer semester will focus on the final studio, independent research project or an urban design workshop experience. International programs are also an opportunity to fulfill some or all requirements for the summer semester.
The MSUD Program requires a minimum of 39 semester credit hours. Only three credits of pass-fail courses may be applied to the 39 credit hour total.
International Programs
Students in the MSUD Program are encouraged to participate in the College International Programs, both of which have an urban design focus. The Modern Architecture and the Modern City [MAMC] Summer Study Abroad Program alternates annually between Europe [2013] and Asia [2014] focusing on the modern and contemporary city and its urban design, architecture and landscape architecture. Students earn 9 to 12 credits in this program, combining electives and an independent research project. The COA International Urban Design Workshop visits various world cities to conduct urban design workshops in cooperation with urban design, architecture and planning schools abroad. Students participating in the Workshop earn 6 credits of workshop and electives in the summer semester. The 2009 and 2010 Workshops were located in Shanghai and Tongji University. The 2011 Workshops will again be in Shanghai.

iHerb Customer Reviews
The best deal there is!

This tea has all the ingredients of the essiac tea, in apparently the proper mixture. Not only is it less expensive at iherb.com, shipping is free over $40 and they ship fast. I think it is a great preventative measure. I mix 3oz from a measuring cup into 3 quarts of boiling water in our only steel pot. Rapid covered boil for 10 minutes then cool overnight after scraping the sides and stirring. Then through a plastic collander into a big plastic bowl, then into a gallon plastic jug, into the refrigerator. 3oz. of tea per day. Enough is made for 27 days or so with each batch. So the 2 lbs. I bought will be good for 287 days. Try that as a price comparison of 45.64 total with other places selling essiac or ojibwe tea---it is half price or less!!!
The Best!

I love this mix of herbs, it was historically used as an alternative cancer treatment. Here is a link for info www.essiacinfo.org I have neuropthy and I was basically crippled for the last 6 months I couldn't get out of bed. I was in the worst pain of my life. Now that I have been on this fine mixture of herbs my life has changed, all I am left with is a little numbness & very light tingling through the day. Although I did mix my guardian spirit with peppermint tea it has changed my life.
My dog had a growth, now she does not

My 13 year old coonhound cross had a black growth under her left arm. I was giving her ground apricot kernels (for b17) and bovine cartilage (to stop growth of blood vessels to tumors) for a few months. When I added this brewed tea to her food every morning (I cook all of her food and it's organic), she began to smell very badly. I did not know why at first, I didn't put the two things together, because I thought it was an old dog thing or a dental issue (I do look after her teeth). A few weeks later the smell went away and then I noticed the black growth was gone and there was just an open wound in its place. I sprayed it with silver water and it healed over.From what I have read, when tumors shrink, it's typical for there to be a terrible smell. When I read that, I realized that's what the smell had been. I don't know if it was the guardian spirit tea (essiac) or a combination of all three. I hope this helps someone out there.
Wonderful tea

Three cups of tea can be made from a teaspoon of this tea powder, and I often put some green tea in with it. In a day I often drink up to 8 cups of tea thus getting the recommended water intake as well. I feel good and, my doctor says I am in perfect health which he seldom sees in men at my age (74). I will buy more of this tea as a standard drink.
Great price and quality!

I've tried a couple of other very expensive versions of Essiac tea and while they had some extras, sometimes they are just not affordable for people who drink this everyday. This one is the perfect price and quite a bit to last a long time. Strong herbal flavor also indicates good quality.

Shadows of the Damned is an action video game[1][2] developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and published by Electronic Arts for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 video game consoles. The game follows the story of Garcia Hotspur, a Mexican demon hunter who goes to the City of the Damned to battle its evils in order to save his true love. The game is the result of collaboration between Goichi Suda and Shinji Mikami, and combined the styles of the two designers, namely the "punk rock" edge of the former and the "psychological action thriller" of the latter.[3]
Demon hunter Garcia Hotspur comes home to find his girlfriend, Paula, being abducted by the Lord of Demons, Fleming, who brags that he will take Paula with him to kill her again and again. Garcia is powerless to stop Fleming, but instead follows him back to the underworld along with his demon sidekick, Johnson, who also acts as his gun, torch and motorcycle. In the demon world, Johnson helps guide Garcia through the twisted nature of the demon realm, defeating numerous enemies that try to feed on Garcia's flesh, and keeping him away from the darkness that destroys the human flesh. As they travel, they witness numerous deaths of Paula by Fleming and other demons, all to toy with Garcia's senses. Another human demon hunter, who simply goes by the name "Colonel", temporarily aids Garcia, but then leaves to get revenge on the death of his loved one, only to be brutally killed later. Garcia also encounters an ally in Christopher, a half-human, half-demon that sells Garcia valuable goods to boost his demon-fighting powers.
Later in the game, Garcia and Johnson learn of the Unbreakable Huntress, the first female demon slayer to ever challenge Fleming. The Unbreakable Huntress challenged Fleming, but was brutally dismembered by the demon king. Impressed with her refusal to surrender even when reduced to a quad amputee, Fleming made the Huntress into his queen, only to repeatedly kill her over and over again, healing any wounds that resulted from the torture. In rebellion, the Unbreakable Huntress continued to escape from the City of the Damned, only to be dragged back and killed by Fleming. Paula is hinted to have been the Unbreakable Huntress prior to the start of the game.
Eventually, Garcia reaches Fleming's "Castle of Hassle", and battles his way through to its top, where Fleming awaits him, Paula encased within his cloak. Fleming enters into battle with Garcia, but Garcia gains the upper hand, and destroys him. He rushes to Paula's side, but she hits him, angered that he watched her die over and over and made no attempt to stop it or comfort her. Furious, she transforms into a demon herself, and attacks Garcia, but Garcia eventually weakens her enough. Paula reverts to her human form, and as she lies wounded and the darkness surrounds them, Garcia comforts her and apologizes.
In the epilogue, Garcia and Paula have returned to his home and are planning for a trip, when Garcia receives a call from Fleming, warning him that more demons are coming for him. Garcia takes this in stride, commenting that as long as he is dating the Lord of Demon's mistress, demons will continue to follow them, and he vows to kill every last one.
Shadows of the Damned is a psychological horror game. The player controls Garcia, moving him through the environments. Garcia's sidekick, Johnson, is ever-present, acting normally as a torch for light or quick melee attacks, but can become a weapon when needed. Johnson can take three forms: a pistol, a shotgun, and automatic rifle, all which are upgraded into more powerful forms either by finding blue gems left after boss fights that add extra abilities, or through slotting of red gems, found in the environment or purchasable from Christopher, to improve damage, reload speed, or ammo capacity. Garcia's health bar can also be extended using red gems. Health is restored by imbibing alcohol that can be found in the game's levels, or purchasable from Christopher or vending machines using white gems, the form of currency in the demon world.
Johnson also can fire a special "light bullet", which can be used to both stun enemies and is a primary mechanic of the game's "darkness" puzzles. If Garcia enters an area covered by darkness, he will momentary be safe but soon the darkness will drain his health until he leaves or dissipates it. This most often can be done by firing a light bullet at a goat's head in the area, but often finding this goat requires completing other puzzles, such as opening a series of locked doors. Other ways of dispelling the darkness included killing demons that are spewing it, or using fireworks to temporarily remove it. In some puzzles, the solution can only be completed while Garcia is within the darkness. Demons that spawn from the darkness often will be shrouded by it even when the darkness is dispelled, preventing Garcia from damaging them until struck with a light bullet. There are numerous boss fights that combine several aspects of the gameplay, including darkness, to be defeated. Certain levels are based on mini-games, such as the use of a sidescroller in some chapters.
The game's history can be traced back to 2005, when Goichi Suda and Shinji Mikami (creator of the Resident Evil series) became good friends while working together on Killer7. Suda wanted to make a survival horror game exclusively for the PlayStation 3. With his first horror title Michigan: Report From Hell receiving decent sales in Japan by 2006, Suda immediately began working on Kurayami (Japanese for 'Darkness') in his spare time. It was at one time thought to be called "Closer". However, EA later confirmed that name had been abandoned for another title.[4] By the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in 2006, a publisher for Kurayami had not yet been established.[5] In 2008, Suda presented the game's concept to EA Games, who agreed to license the Unreal Engine 3 and to publish the game to a worldwide audience. Shinji Mikami was then invited to executive-produce the project. Suda wanted to announce the game at E3 2009, but was not allowed to do so, due to a media silence agreement between Grasshopper Manufacture and EA Games. That December, Akira Yamaoka (sound designer for the Silent Hill series) left Konami after finishing his work on Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and joined Grasshopper Manufacture because he enjoyed the latter's game No More Heroes. Yamaoka began work as the sound designer for the game. The game went about five different versions until Electronics Arts approved it.[6] The newly titled Shadows of the Damned was finally unveiled at the Tokyo Game Show in 2010 as an action game.
Shadows of The Damned took 3 years to make and the game design had gone through significant changes (five design drafts in total). Originally, Garcia was going to start out shirtless and without a gun. From there, he would gradually acquire weapons along the way and could purchase clothes at stores within the game. However, Grasshopper was pressured by EA to have Garcia start with a gun because, "westerners are about guns." In addition, Paula was originally designed as a little girl living in Garcia's gun and would hop around like a rabbit or flutter like a butterfly when her ability is needed; and this would lead to a prominent love story. Again, EA had these features removed because they did not understand the concept. EA informed Grasshopper that, "there's this thing called an elevator pitch in America, and if you can't tell your story in the length of an elevator ride, Hollywood won't use it." This forced Suda to completely scrap all of his initial ideas and had Johnson the talking Skull replaced Paula, and make the game a fairy tale like Lupin III's The Castle of Cagliostro or Princess Peach and Mario.[7]
In July 17, 2012, Mikami expressed his dissatisfaction with the game stating that both he and Suda were disappointed with the end product.[8]
"[Shadows of The Damned] became a completely different game. That was a bit disappointing. I think Suda was unable to create the scenario he'd originally had in his head, and he rewrote the scenario several times. I think his heart was broken. He's such a unique creator, so it seems to me that he was not quite comfortable with making this game."— Shinji Mikami
Shadows of the Damned has received mostly positive reviews, with average aggregate scores of 77% at GameRankings,[9] 77 out of 100 on Metacritic.[10][11] Joystiq awarded the title a 4 out of 5, noting that Shadows of the Damned is a silly and over-the-top adventure, but is a trip worth taking. The Official Xbox Magazine gave it an 8 out of 10, praising the combat, boss battles, weapon upgrades and humour, but criticizing the linearity and the slow start. Game Informer awarded the title a 9.25 out of 10. Stating that "Shadows of the Damned is unapologetically adolescent, but instead of trying to be cutely ironic and wink at players, the humor comes off as genuine, playful, and fun." IGN awarded the title with a 7 out of 10, criticizing the game for not appealing to all audiences. Eurogamer gave the title a 7 out of 10, noting that it lacks the polish of a typical Shinji Mikami title.
Destructoid praised and awarded the title an 8.5 out of 10, saying "This crackbrained horror romp takes camp to a new extreme and wants you, the player, to have nothing but fun the entire time."[13] Gamespot gave the title an 8.5 out of 10, praising its sound design, challenging and terrifying bosses, varied gameplay, and clever use of darkness, but criticizing the lack of a new game+ function as well as the stiff animation. GameZone also gave the game an 8.5 out of 10 and stated that "to a much simpler degree, Shadows of the Damned is an amazing experience that anyone with a sense of humor and an affinity for rich games should get their hands on ASAP."[21]
Within a week of its release, Shadows of the Damned sold approximately 24,000 units in North America for the Xbox 360 and PS3 combined, as well as an additional 9,145 units in Japan on the PlayStation 3.[30][31]

The Rarely Seen Magnum
I tried to concentrate on Maggy today because I rarely take pictures of him. Mostly because he doesn't keep weight on good and always looks sooo skinny scrawny when most of our other horses are almost or really are jiggling when moving :S. He's prolly the best tempered young horse we have on the ranch, he was imprinted and has never bucked when handled as opposed to when he's romping around with the group at liberty. He's been saddled, lunged. and bitted Not ridden yet we wait till the 3rd b-day to ride. I can't wait till next year. He's gonna be so much fun. I went to put pressure on the saddle today and decided to see what he ould do if I really pulled on the stirrup. I nearly pulled him off his feet cause I caught him off guard but he didn't freak out at all. Just set his feet back in place and waited. I had to restrain myself from just jumping right on up cause I know he won't care. I just can't wait!! The pictures with just the blanket i was just playing around and actually had it over his face to begin with but dad wanted to play with his face. Anyway the pictures!!!
He's so cute! I love the pic with the saddle pad on his neck!!
He is really cute!! :D
he so cute. I know a mare that could be his twin sister

She liked to be watched. By strangers.
And she still does.
Lucky for Gemma, her sexy new neighbor, Chev Martinez, is totally enjoying the show. But how well will her voyeuristic little game hold up when Chev decides to venture behind the scenes?

I got all the shorts wrong. And I know why: I under-estimated the Academy, and second-guessed them. If I had voted for my favorite in each category, I'd have picked right.

The three short films, animated, live action and doc, did not go the way I expected. I thought Logorama--a must-see clever short made up entirely of commercial logos-- would be too hip for the Academy, which would go for Nick Park for the second time, but they must have gotten tired of Wallace & Gromit being nominated five times before. The live action short The New Tenants was my favorite and I shouldn't have listened to the people telling me why it couldn't win! So much for winning any Oscar pools. The five films vying for doc short were all strong, but I admit that HBO's Music by Prudence, about a disabled South African singer, haunted m...Read More »

Tune in Tuesday November 9 at 7 p.m. (EST) for the second episode of GreenHeroes on TVO.
Last week, we proudly launched our companion TV show to rave reviews. It was exciting to see our GreenHeroes on the big screen, flaunting their unique and risk-taking attributes and highlighting their amazing global actions.
When was the last time you really got to know your neighbourhood, and how well do you know it? Jane's Walk might be just what you're looking for if you need to reconnect with your backyard and get to know your neighbours.
Jane's Walk is a free walking tour for locals, by locals. We love and share its vision, to create walkable neighborhoods, to promote urban literacy, and to build cities for and by people.
What happens when a group of citizens concerned about the increased presence of advertising in public spaces comes together to take action? Change happens.
We at GreenHeroes believe in taking action in our backyards to protect the planet, and we're not alone.
Since its inception in 2001, the Toronto Public Space Committee has devoted its energy to making our urban common areas more beautiful.
On September 26, 2010, Toronto's Clean Train Coalition hosted an event in Sorauren Park – the Go Electric Music Festival.
Our GreenHeroes Street Team was lucky enough to catch a number of great local musical acts, including Lesley Pike. Lesley performed her song Silver Lining, which can also be heard in our Andrew Ference webisode.
Looking for ways to get involved, right now, in your own backyard? A great way to get started is to join (or start!) your own community cleanup.
An awesome example of communities coming together to clean up is The Great Canadian Shoreline Clean-up, which happens every September and October, as thousands of volunteers across Canada clean-up their local shorelines.
We at GreenHeroes are inspired daily to take action. We do understand, however, that it can be hard to know where to dig in to solve complex challenges facing our planet.
One of the best ways we've found to take action is by looking around in our own backyards for ways we can make a difference. Sometimes the first step is to join in with others on a project or campaign.
It's been over 5 years, and the work to save the Niagara Escarpment's Mount Nemo in Burlington, Ontario from a massive LaFarge/Nelson Aggregate open pit quarry continues at a busy pace.
In mid-September the Niagara Escarpment Commission voted in what they called a "precedent setting" vote in favour of processing community organization Protecting Escarpment Rural Land's (PERL) amendment application to properly designate the land at risk on Mount Nemo based on current science.
Sarah Harmer is a JUNO award winning singer/songwriter who flexes her musical muscle to protect a world biosphere site.
Sarah grew up with the Niagara Escarpment in her backyard. Today, she is dedicated to its preservation, and to achieve this goal, she co-founded PERL (Protecting Escarpment Rural Land) and mounts a concert each summer featuring renowned musicians like Bruce Cockburn and Feist.
Calling all environmental film lovers! Starting tonight, Wednesday, October 13th, until Sunday, October 17th, Planet in Focus International Film Festival will be launching the 2010 edition of its festival, with over 100 amazing films from across the planet.
At the TIFF Bell Lightbox in Toronto, Director Ron Mann will be showcasing his world-traversing documentary following Canadian Author Margaret Atwood as she travels the globe with her new novel, The Year of the Flood.
It's the most conscious film festival on the planet, and we're thrilled to be a part of it!
On September 22, 2010, the GreenHeroes team made a bright appearance at the Planet in Focus International Film Festival press conference at the Royal Ontario Museum, to debut our shiny new GreenHeroes duo and present our 2010 festival entry, GreenHeroes: Sarah Harmer.

I have a URL that looks like this:
I'm trying to extract just the words from it. Right now, I'm using
string.replace("%21", "!") for each and every %20, %29, etc. because each segment represent different characters or spaces. Is there a way to just covert those symbols and numbers to what they actually mean?

European End Game: The Striking Similarity between Today's Eurozone Situation and the End of Bretton Woods
Sinn, Hans-Werner, The International Economy
The financial community claims nearly unanimously and somewhat vociferously that the eurozone is suffering from a confidence crisis that can only be solved by wielding a "big bazooka." If the rescue fund is large enough, goes the argument, markets will be assuaged, interest spreads will shrink, and the distressed countries will manage to refinance their public debt. But as popular as this view may be, it is far too optimistic.
Of course markets are jittery, and the risk of self-reinforcing runaway processes is real. However, markets have every reason to be nervous. There is not just the self-inflicted instability of mutually infecting speculators, but a fundamental distortion of prices for goods, labor, and capital that would need a currency realignment that is impossible within a currency union. Whoever offers his guarantee for the funds powering the big bazooka should know that such a guarantee will be drawn eventually, given that the debtor countries lack the competitiveness to be able to redeem their debt.
The distortion of prices stems from the bubbles that built up in the eurozone's periphery in the years before the crisis. The rapid interest convergence that took place from 1995 to 1997 in anticipation of the euro induced governments and private agents to overborrow and overspend, making their respective economies overheat. In Greece and Portugal, the borrowed funds went largely into the wages of government employees, and in Ireland and Spain largely into the wages of construction workers. As construction workers paid more taxes, and government employees bought more homes, they pulled each other along into the bubble. At the end of the day, whoever borrowed the cheap funds from abroad made little difference. From 1995 to the crisis year 2008, the GIIPS countries (Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain) appreciated against their eurozone trading partners by 30 percent. By contrast, Germany depreciated against its eurozone trading partners by 22 percent, which translated, for instance, into Italy appreciating by 50 percent against Germany. Increasing wages, prices, and nominal incomes in the GIIPS undermined their export competitiveness and boosted imports, driving all countries into current account deficits: 2.2 percent of GDP in Italy, 3.5 percent in Ireland, 7.7 percent in Spain, 10.9 percent in Portugal, and 12.5 percent in Greece over the past five years.
The most recent estimates for 2011 show that the combined current account deficits of the GIIPS will be on the order of 127 billion [euro], and their net foreign debt position will have risen to l,620 billion [euro]. Italy's net foreign debt amounts to only 26 percent of GDP, but that of the rest to a staggering 95 percent (95 percent for Greece, 86 percent for Ireland, 105 percent for Portugal, and 95 percent for Spain). No less than 52 percent of the total net foreign debt of the GIIPS, or about 1,021 billion [euro] in absolute terms, lies in Spain, with 417 billion [euro] or 21 percent in Italy, and the rest shared among the other GIIPS countries. (Surprisingly, even France had a net foreign debt position of about 215 billion [euro] in 2010, the eurozone's third-largest in absolute terms. In relative terms, however, that amounts only to 11 percent of French GDP.)
A net foreign debt position on the order of 100 percent of GDP is extreme by any standards. Greece, Ireland, Portugal, and Spain will therefore have a hard time repaying their foreign debt, to put it mildly. There is every reason for the current holders of the respective government bonds to be frightened.
The only chance to repay the debt is to become competitive enough to earn a current account surplus. That, however, requires becoming cheaper. The terms of trade must deteriorate in order to stimulate exports and redirect import demand towards the purchase of domestic goods. That is easy if a country exits from the euro, but difficult if it stays in. …

Randy Cassingham
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. (July 2008)
Randy C Cassingham (1959 in California, USA) is an American syndicated columnist, humorist, publisher, and speaker. He is a former member of the Society of Professional Journalists. He has been the keynote speaker at several of The Skeptics Society's annual conventions.
Cassingham is the author of the weekly syndicated news column This is True (founded 1994), which Cassingham made available by e-mail subscription to become one of the first for-profit e-mailed newsletters on the Internet. (In January 1997, an expanded paid version became one of the first paid e-mailed newsletters on the Internet.) "This is True" features several actual news items each week of unbelievable-yet-true character, with each story capped by a pithy one-liner which is "humorous, ironic or opinionated."
Cassingham is also the Founder of the "True Stella Awards" (founded 2002), a web site dedicated to informing the public about frivolous legal cases. The site was expanded into a 2005 book of the same name, published by Dutton, an imprint of the Penguin Group. Cassingham also started the "HeroicStories" e-mail newsletter (founded 1999), which tells the stories of remarkable acts of kindness and courage. Management of "HeroicStories" has since been turned over to others.
Cassingham is the creator of the "Get Out of Hell Free" card (his response to a This is True reader who complained that a story about Feng Shui was "anti-Christian" and told him he was going to hell), the Internet Spam Primer, and several other web sites.
Cassingham is a volunteer emergency medical First Responder for the area around his home in rural Western Colorado. He has been married to Kathryn Anne ("Kit") Riley since 2001.

No air conditioner or fans. No hair dryer. Towels dingey. No shampoo. Hot, small elevator. No English-speaking.
The staff were friendly and helpful. The locaiton is the best!
Location and staff
Poor breakfast
This is a very nice and pleasant hotel to come back to after a day of sightseeing. I love the bathroom especially. Makes me feel welcomed.
the wi-fi signal was a little weak but I shouldn't be complaining since it's complimentary.
I have never seen such a dirty hotel in my life! I have paid 170 for a night, just to feel like vomiting any time I have looked to all the hair hanging everywhere in the bathroom, or at the stains on the bed sheets!
I have never seen such a dirty hotel in my life! I have paid 170 for a night, just to feel like vomiting any time I have looked to all the hair hanging everywhere in the bathroom, or at the stains on the bed sheets! Besides, I have felt totally insecure.
The location is excellent. Service is korrekt. The room was clean. Price is good.
The room is little, only to sleep at night.
The cleaness of the hotel, the quietness and pleasant atmosphere in the room.
Breakfast wasn't included. Noise from the street.
Nothing: the services has been very poor
Let me tell you: 1-at hotel booking: because I did not want to put my credit card on a fax but rather give it verbally on the phone, then they informed me that the hotel was fully booked. I could make the reservation on line right after and through your service! 2-During my stay there was not hot water! I could not take a shower! Answer from the same guy: if you are not happy, just ask for a discount! Then he hanged up the phone! 3. At the time of departure I could not get my invoice - the printer was so said out of order...what a coincidence. In spite of several mail requests, I still cannot get my invoice. conclusion: I'm general manager at Ericsson: I will request that hotel to be banned from Ericsson list, I'll do the same for my peers
We were really surprised that we got quality accommodation for the price we payed. The photos shown on the website are showing the reality. We liked the design of the hotel and should we arrived 2 weeks ealier we'd definitely tried out the breakfast on the terrace - it looked really great. We liked the cleanliness of the hotel and also the location - lots of buses, metro, restaurants, bistros. The bakery just around the corner is amazing and stays open until 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays.
Our bed was huge, but it wasn't very comfortable.
Its location
The bed - too coarse and the bathroom - too small
Excellent location, nice room and new bathroom, separate toilet. Staff was very helpful. Lots of restaurants around the hotel.
I have no complains and will return here,but I will appreciate WiFi in the future. Even if it's only in the lobby, just to check mu mail.
The Hotel is well located close (10 mins walk) to the Opera Metro Station - one of the hubs for the system - making travel around Paris easy and covenient. The Opera is also the dropping off point for the non-stop Roissybus to/from Charles de Gaulle airport so the Hotel is also well situated for travellers arriving via that airport. It is a small hotel with an intimate feel and the staff were very both friendly and very helpful. The rooms were clean with air conditioning and the beds very comfortable . The bathrooms were well supplied with toiletries and bathrobes are provided.
It has limited facilities i.e. a small bar/lounge area and very small breakfast room, but these appear to be sufficient to cope with the number of guests. It does not have a restaurant, however, is only 3 mins walk from a square with a wide range of restaurants with ones to suit all types - families, young people, businessmen etc. The in-room TV english language option is limited to the BBC World Service, so a wider choice of satellite stations would have been appreciated.
The hotel was clean and modern, very comfortable beds, practical and airy.

Advanced Manure Management for Small Dairy FarmsEPA Contract Number: EPD08018
Title: Advanced Manure Management for Small Dairy Farms
Investigators: Roberts, T. Guy
Small Business: Avatar Alternative Energy Inc. d.b.a. Avatar Energy, LLC
EPA Contact: Manager, SBIR Program
Phase: I
Project Period: March 1, 2008 through August 31, 2008
Project Amount: $70,000
RFA: Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) - Phase I (2008) RFA Text | Recipients Lists
Research Category: Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) , SBIR - Animal Waste and Waste to Energy
This proposed project is for the experimental operation and performance review of a pilot-scale anaerobic digester and effluent treatment system for small dairy farms. This would be one of the first digesters built on a dairy farm with a herd size of 50-100 heads. Although digesters are considered to be a valuable addition to a farm's manure management strategy, several sources have stated that farms of this size are incapable of feasibly maintaining anaerobic digesters. The principal barrier to implementation of anaerobic digesters is generally considered to be the cost of project-specific engineering and large-scale construction. The digester in development by Avatar Alternative Energy addresses these concerns with the following design features: The digester is modular and can be assembled by a small crew utilizing farm equipment. The digester is a moveable asset on the farm, replacing poured concrete vessels for larger-diameter fiberglass pipe sections, which can be disassembled for maintenance and/or relocation on the farm or resale. Due to the modular nature of the equipment, the scale of the digester can follow changes to the farm's herd size. Avatar's pilot digester is based on the robust plug flow architecture and includes specific design features to enable inexpensive maintenance and straightforward operation. Avatar also has developed a low-cost solids separator to separate the digested manure into liquid and solid fractions. The manure is treated through a series of steps that will significantly reduce nitrogen and phosphorus and will ultimately be used to support greenhouse activities.Supplemental Keywords:

Twin Cities Coffee Guild website debuts as a hub for local java info
The newest coffee klatch: TC Coffee Guild.
Gordon Bellaver, manager and part owner of Bull Run coffee shop at 34th and Lyndale, says his inspiration to start a Twin Cities Coffee Guild began one day several months ago when he was at another local coffee shop.
He ordered a caffeinated drink and the result was only okay--sure, he'd had worse, but he'd also had much better. "I wanted to offer some advice or tips," he recalls, "but I didn't want to be 'that guy.' "
What's resulted, so far, is a website, www.twincitiescoffeeguild.com, intended to be a hub for coffee information in the Twin Cities. Belaver says he was inspired by the site Minneapolis Bike Love, which functions as an online community of local cycling enthusiasts. He saw a similar need to harness the energy in the coffee community among roasters, technicians, baristas, equipment providers, and anyone who loves to brew and drink java, and have all parties share their knowledge. "The Twin Cities scene is evolving," Bellaver says. "More people are starting to recognize good-quality coffee, and the community is kind of exploding."
Gordon Bellaver and his winning latte art.
Marsha Trainer
The Coffee Guild's site includes blog posts about visits to local shops, job postings, general coffee talk, and event listings. Bellaver hopes to organize everything from educational classes about roasting beans or pouring espresso to barista bike rides touring various shops.
Ideally, he says, when he he generates enough interest he'd like to see the Guild develop into a more structured nonprofit. He'd like to see the Guild serve as a place for baristas to educate themselves more about coffee and discuss ideas, as well as discourage cliques. (Before moving to Minnesota about a year ago, Bellaver worked at Intelligencia in Chicago, a city where he says the baristas tend to stick to their own shops.)
Bellaver himself is a talented practitioner of latte art and recently won Bull Run's spring "throwdown." He plans to have the Guild sponsor a latte art throwdown every quarter, passing around a trophy to winners to display in their shops.
The next throwdown is scheduled for Sunday, October 2, at 4 p.m. at Blue Ox Coffee Company--a dual-city competition, with baristas in Chicago simultaneously conducting their own throwdown. Each city's winners will tweet their photos to judges, who will decide the latte art grand champion.

- Diluted earnings per share as of June 30, 2011, reflect the best quarter and year-to-date results in Company history.
- The Company's board of directors approved a cash dividend of $0.36 per share to be paid in the third quarter of 2011, a 5.9% increase from the immediately preceding quarter. The increase follows a trend of 22 consecutive years of increases in annual cash dividends paid to shareholders through the 2010 calendar year.
- Total revenue was $40.0 million for the second quarter of 2011 and $80.0 million for the first six months of 2011, up 1.3% and 1.6%, respectively, over the same periods in 2010.
- Total loans were $1.9 billion at June 30, 2011, up $20.4 million or 1.1% from June 30, 2010.
- Total deposits were $2.6 billion at quarter end, up 4.5% from the same period in 2010. Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $536.3 million at June 30, 2011, an increase of 13.1% over the same period in 2010.
- The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2011 was 3.77%, compared to 3.78% for the first quarter of 2011, and 3.91% for the second quarter of 2010. Despite the decline in net interest margin over the past 12 months, net interest income of $28.0 million for the second quarter of 2011 was down less than 1.0% when compared to the same quarter last year. Growth in earning assets, primarily in the securities portfolio, helped mitigate the earnings impact of the decline in margin.
- Noninterest income was up 6.0% for the quarter and up 8.2% for the year-to-date period. Fee income from investment services, insurance, and card services were all up for both the quarter and year-to-date periods, while service charges on deposit accounts declined. The lower level of service charges on deposit accounts was impacted by regulatory changes that went into effect in the third quarter of 2010.
- Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2011 was $25.2 million, up 2.6% over the same period prior year. Noninterest expense for the year-to-date period was $50.4 million, an increase of 2.8% over the first six months of 2010.
- Favorable trends in net charge-offs and nonperforming assets contributed to a decline in the provision for loan and lease losses from $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2010, to $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2011.
- Nonperforming assets declined for the third consecutive quarter, although nonperforming assets levels remain above the totals reported at June 30, 2010. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets of 1.30% at June 30, 2011, continues to be well below the most recent peer averages published by the Federal Reserve. The Company continues to receive regular payments on over 60% of loan balances that we categorize as nonperforming.
- Net charge-offs declined for the second consecutive quarter. Although net charge-offs for the quarter of $679,000 are up over the $244,000 recorded for the same quarter last year, they remain well below the most recent peer averages published by the Federal Reserve.
- The Company's allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $28.4 million at June 30, 2011, which represented 1.48% of total loans, compared to $27.8 million and 1.46% at December 31, 2010, and $26.5 million and 1.40% at June 30, 2010. The allowance for loan and lease losses coverage of nonperforming loans improved during the most recent quarter to 69.23% up from 61.46% at December 31, 2010, and 68.61% at June 30, 2010.
- Capital levels showed continued growth during the quarter and ratios remain well above the regulatory well capitalized minimums. Tier 1 capital as a percentage of average assets was 8.39%; and the ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was 13.98%. These ratios are up from 8.02% and 13.42%, respectively at December 31, 2010.

Guy's and gals, ladies and gents, it's competition time. It's been well over a year since my last, so how about we have an awesome competition? You're going to love this one, I promise.
I am looking for talented individuals to design an outfit for my Male Furrie Dollmaker. That's right, I am announcing now, that a Male Furrie Dollmaker is in production! So this is the call-out for anyone and everyone, to design an outfit for inclusion in the first version, to be released soon.
Simple! Design an outfit for a boy. Your outfit may be ANY style, ANY colour, and consist of any number of objects. Please at least include a shirt and pants in your design, but hats, gloves, shoes etc, are welcome.
And please make sure it's new, not an outfit one of your current characters are wearing. I will not accept pictures of your characters in their outfits as submissions. I will accept your design on a dummy character though (faceless, hairless).
This is a fair prize! You will be helping me by creating an extra costume for my Male Furrie Dollmaker, and in turn I will feature the winners design in my Dollmaker, giving credit to it's creator.
First prize: Outfit will be featured in the upcoming Male Furrie Dollmaker, with written credit.
Second, Third, and Fourth: One (1) item from their outfit will be selected to be included in the Male Furrie Dollmaker, with written credit.
Everyone else: You will be loved for giving it a go!
I will be the sole judge of this competition. Why? Because only I know the existing outfits in my Male Furrie Dollmaker, and to avoid double-ups in design, I will select the winner and runner ups.
That, and public judging is too messy to co-ordinate. ^_~
Here's the messy part! You are welcome to upload your design to DeviantArt (scraps or your main gallery) or provide a link to a hosting site such as Imageshack. Please attach a URL to your submission via DA note to me. To ensure I don't miss your submission, please put in the subject "Competition submission". I will accept only notes, please do not post your design in my journal!
ALL ENTRIES DUE BY 7th SEPTEMBER
So guys and girls, I'm asking for your help! I'm stuck for outfit ideas for my Male Furrie Dollmaker. Your creativeness and individuality will help me greatly, and you'll be a part of a much-anticipated project, with credit!
This is open to everyone as I say, Sonic fans, anime fans, painters, sketchers, the lot. Don't be afraid to enter, because you might just win ^_~
I eagerly await your designs!
COMPETITION TIME! (END DATE ANNOUNCED) by geN8hedgehogWatch

Sent my submiss. Hope there any good.
May I enter?
can you have a surfboard?
Well a surfboard in my opinion is a prop... not an accessory or part of an outfit, and unfortunately I'm not including props this time!
You're welcome to try sneak it into your design, like on a chain or shirt though =}

I'll enter! Can we include swords or other weaponry? Hopefully I'll get this done on time ^-^
*thinks* Hmm maybe not, that'd be classed as a prop, not an accessory I think. I'm trying to avoid props because there's just SO many and they'd need a category of their own XD
Maybe a sword in a hilt, on their back or waist though, that'd be ok =}

I'll enter if if I can write up a design for it since I can't draw. If not, that is ok.

I'm at the hotel now, on day 4 of a 6 night stay. Because it's late January, the rate I got was RIDICULOUSLY low -- well under a hundred dollars per night, which is pretty amazing for New York.
If I had paid a lot of money for the room, I'd have a list of small complaints. But I think the negative reviews on here are greatly exaggerated. I'm sure some floors and rooms are better than others, but I've had a very positive experience here and would definitely stay again if I got a great rate like this. Here are all the positives:
*Perfect location -- it cannot get any more convenient.
*Decent size room -- definitely larger than others I've had in NYC.
*Clean -- yes, you read that right, clean, particularly the bathroom.
*Quiet -- no trouble with noise on my hall or with neighbors.
*Gym -- surprisingly decent, free gym.
*Service -- unlike many people, we had absolutely no line at checkin, and we arrived right at 3pm. People have all been pleasant, friendly and helpful.
*Window opens partially so you can get fresh air.
*12 elevators, all of which are new/modern work well -- never had to wait long.
The negatives are basically because this is an old hotel. If you've ever lived in a big city -- NY, DC, Chicago, San Francisco -- the rooms in this hotel will probably remind you of your first rental apartment. In other words, they've been painted over numerous times, the trim and moldings aren't crisp and fresh, the furniture and decor are dated, the hardware on doors is old.
Probably the worst part of the hotel is actually the hallways -- they're the most worn out aspect of the place, and many of the hotel room doors have chipped paint.
Nothing about these aesthetic issues makes the hotel unclean, unsafe or uncomfortable. They do, however, make it one of the best deals you can possibly get in NY.
If you're looking for something modern and pristine, don't stay here. If you're looking for a convenient, clean, safe hotel in a perfect location, and you get a really good rate, I'd highly recommend the Hotel Pennsylvania. I'll be back (if I can get a great rate like I did this time).
