Police detain artist Ai Weiwei, question staff
Apr 3rd
Beijing – Chinese border police detained renowned artist and rights activist Ai Weiwei at Beijing's main airport on Sunday, while other officers detained eight employees of his main studio, supporters said.
Supporters posting messages on Ai's Twitter account and their own accounts said he had planned to board a flight to Hong Kong when he was detained Sunday morning.
Police then raided Ai's studio in Beijing's Caochangdi district early Sunday afternoon, taking the eight employees to a local police station, an assistant said via Ai's Twitter account.
Ai's mobile phone remained switched off on Sunday afternoon.
It was not immediately clear if he had planned to travel on from Hong Kong or only visit the Chinese territory.
In a telephone interview with the German Press Agency dpa last week, Ai, 53 said he planned to open a new studio in Berlin partly in response growing interference in his work by the Chinese government.
'I just need the studio for working,' Ai said. 'However, as we all know, one studio in China has been demolished and another faces the possibility of being demolished,' he said.
'At the same time, my exhibitions have been cancelled. It is true that the possibility for artistic expression is very small in China,' Ai said.
Ai said he hoped to spend 'as little time as possible' in Europe once he opened the Berlin studio.
'However, there will be no choice if my work and life are somehow threatened,' he said.
Last month, Ai said he had cancelled a solo exhibition planned for a leading Beijing gallery after the organizers requested a delay because of the 'political sensitivity' of his work.
'My studio in Shanghai has been demolished. You can see it's getting worse,' Ai said of China's restrictions on artists and writers.
Ai has become increasingly active in China's human rights movement in recent years.
In September 2009, he underwent surgery in Germany for a cerebral haemorrhage that he said was caused when he and other activists were attacked in his hotel in the central city of Chengdu during the trial of rights activist Tan Zuoren.
Tan and Ai tried to determine how many children died when poorly constructed schools collapsed in the May 2008 Sichuan earthquake, which killed at least 80,000 people.
Ai has gained an international reputation for his wide range of artworks, installations and performances. He was an artistic consultant for the Bird's Nest Olympic Stadium in Beijing.

Santa Cruz Police Launch I-Phone App
Mar 29th
SANTA CRUZ, Calif- Are the police in your neighborhood and you have no idea why, well, now there is an app for that. The Santa Cruz Police Department, working with two recent UC Santa Cruz graduates, developed what is believed to be the first consumer-focused law enforcement iPhone application in the country.
"This mobile application will give our community a remarkable amount of information in the palm oftheir hand," Police Chief Kevin Vogel said.
The mobile app will provide access to the police department's scanner feed, online crime maps, videos, photos and a new departmental blog. In addition, consumers will be able to submit crime tips from their mobile phone and view Nixle alerts.
"We recognize that people are consuming information in new ways," Chief Vogel said, "law enforcement needs to make their information as transparent and readily-accessible as possible to meet the expectations of our communities."
The app was designed by EZ Axess Inc, a Sunnyvale-based start-up company founded in the Spring of 2009 by UC Santa Cruz graduates Kushyar Kasraie and Jamieson Johnson. The firm was a finalist in the 2009 UCSC Business Plan Competition, which was sponsored by the City of Santa Cruz.
EZ Axess is in the process of expanding the development to other smartphone platforms (such as the Droid). In the meantime, the app's features can be obtained through any web-enabled phone via the Police Department's newly launched mobile website http://m.santacruzpolice.com.This app will also work on the iTouch and iPad.
The free mobile application is available via iTunes and the Apple store.

Police seize Taser disguised as phone

Police seize Taser disguised as phone
Posted March 6, 2011 09:25:00
A device resembling a mobile phone, which turns into a Taser at the flick of a switch, has been discovered by police officers who were arresting a man over a break-and-enter offence in Sydney's east.
Police went to the 22-year-old man's home, in Maroubra in Sydney's eastern suburbs on Saturday evening, to arrest him over an alleged break-and-enter offence that occurred at Minneapolis Crescent, Maroubra, on March 3.
After searching the man's room, police allegedly found an item that resembled a mobile phone, but was actually a Taser.
The Taser was able to be activated, they say, by sliding a switch on the side of the imitation phone.
The man was charged with aggravated break-and-enter offences, stealing and possession of a prohibited weapon.
He was released on strict conditional bail to appear at Waverley Local Court on March 9.

Police target drivers using phones
Feb 28th
Scottish police forces are stepping up attempts to catch motorists using their mobile phone while driving.
A day of action campaign, in conjunction with The Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland (Acpos), began just after midnight and will continue throughout the day.
Increased patrols will be on the look-out for motorists breaking the law and will be active in enforcing legislation in order to "ensure that the message gets through to motorists".
One of the forces taking part, Strathclyde Police, caught 118 motorists using mobile phones during last year's day of action on June 21.
Chief Inspector Stewart Carle, area commander of Strathclyde Police's road policing department, said: "Statistics from last year show that motorists continue to disregard the law despite increased publicity alerting the public to the dangers and consequences of using a mobile phone whilst driving.
"You are four times more likely to crash if you use your phone whilst driving, whether using hand-held or hands-free.
"Using a mobile phone whilst driving has been found to be just as dangerous as drink-driving.
"I urge drivers not to compromise their own safety or the safety of other road users by being distracted by their phone – let the answering service take the call whilst full attention is given to the road ahead."

Police leery of cheap smart-phone scanner app
Feb 27th
Just a few years ago, someone wanting to listen to the dispatches of their local police department had to purchase and program special equipment. Now, modern technology has made it possible to transform popular smart phones into personal police scanners.
Several applications that can be downloaded for little to no cost on many mobile phones stream police dispatches directly to the device, making it possible for anyone with an iPhone, Android or Blackberry to monitor police activity in real time.
The Baton Rouge Police Department learned in early February that its radio dispatches had become available to the public for free or at very low cost, and the discovery has top officials at the department alarmed, said Sgt. Donald Stone, a police spokesman.
Baton Rouge Police Chief Charles Mondrick said criminals could use the increased accessibility provided by the new technologies as a tool for committing crimes.
"I have no problem with law-abiding citizens monitoring police radio transmissions," Mondrick said. "However, we have no way to separate the criminal, terrorist element from the good citizens."
Mondrick said concerns for officer safety and homeland security led the department's command staff and city-parish administrators to meet to discuss ways of limiting access to the radio dispatches.
James Leung created one of the most popular scanner apps, 5-0 Radio, in October 2009. Leung said in an e-mail from his home in London that his app has been downloaded more than 9 million times and currently gets about 150,000 new users each week. 5-0 Radio was the No. 5 top paid app overall in 2010, he said.
Leung explained his app uses volunteers with police scanner equipment who hook up the devices to a computer and upload their local police department's stream to the app's servers. The servers then distribute the streams to the app's users.
Leung said none of the thousands of departments featured on the app have requested to be removed, but he would not hesitate to do so if asked.
"We take public safety seriously, and we will take off any communication that can pose a threat to it," he said.
His app bans any tactical, narcotics, detectives or SWAT communications from being available to its users, Leung said. What's left is the routine dispatches and talkgroups for law enforcement, he said.
But Mondrick said the ease of access to even everyday police chatter is cause for concern.
Previously, those wanting to listen to Baton Rouge police dispatches had to buy a scanner, which can cost upward of $200, and have that scanner specifically programmed to pick up city-police transmissions, Stone said.

Nikitta Murder: Police Seek Mobile Phone
Feb 11th
3:10pm UK, Friday February 11, 2011
Katie Stallard, in Newport
Detectives investigating the murder of Nikitta Grender in south Wales are appealing for help tracing her mobile phone as they urge a potentially vital witness to come forward.
Police issued an image of the Samsung Tocco SF80 model owned by Nikitta – her handset has not been found.
The pregnant nineteen-year-old was found dead by fire crews in the early hours of Saturday February 5 at her home in Newport, Gwent.
She had been stabbed twice and her flat set on fire – detectives believe deliberately in an attempt to cover the killer's tracks.
Police have issued this image of a phone the same as Nikitta's
Police said they had now traced three of the four potential witnesses captured on CCTV images issued yesterday, but repeated an appeal for a man in blue – seen walking on the Fosse Road in Pontfaen at 5:59am on Saturday morning – to come forward.
They believe he may hold crucial information and have seen something relevant to the investigation.
The images were taken from the estates around Nikitta's flat on the morning she was attacked.
Police have renewed calls for this man to come forward
Leading the investigation for Gwent Police, Det Supt Geoff Ronayne said: "Although intensive searches have been carried out over the last few days, we have yet to find Nikitta's mobile phone, a Samsung Tocco SF80.
"We had a very good response from the appeals we made yesterday and three out of four people captured have already come forward. We are grateful to the local community for their response to the media appeals.
"We are following many lines of enquiry and still need anyone who thinks they may be able to help to come forward.
Nikitta was eight months pregnant when she was killed
"Anyone with information can contact us in the major incident room on 01443 865562."
He said searches were continuing at two properties in Newport, and forensic work was ongoing.
Meanwhile, detectives have been given more time to question a 26-year-old suspect.
The man, named locally as Carl Whant, is understood to be the second cousin of Nikitta's boyfriend, Ryan Mayes.
Police can now hold Mr Whant until 6am tomorrow after securing a Magistrate's extension late last night.
Whant, who was arrested on Wednesday, is said to have worked as a nightclub doorman in clubs and bars across Newport and Cardiff.
Nikitta had been expecting a baby girl who, it has emerged, had already been named Kelsey May.

Lord Prescott in new phone hacking claims being studied by police

Lord Prescott in new phone hacking claims being studied by police
Police are taking a fresh look at claims that celebrities and politicians – including former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott – were victims of phone hacking, after fresh evidence emerged. New evidence: Former Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott (PA)
Scotland Yard detectives said analysis of documents seized in 2005 alongside new information has led them to reassess allegations that tabloid newspaper reporters listened in covertly to mobile phone messages.
They admitted the individuals concerned were originally told there was 'little or no' information held by police that they had been caught up in the newspaper scandal.
Former deputy PM Lord Prescott was among those told by police he could be the victim of phone hacking by the News of the World.
Now a lord, he met the Met Police's Dep Ass Comm Sue Akers, who showed him invoices recovered by police showing he was targeted by Glenn Mulcaire.

Chatty city drivers nabbed by police
Feb 10th
MORE than 1000 NSW motorists have been fined in one day for flouting laws on the use of their mobile phones.
Almost half of the drivers caught using their phone during the statewide crackdown were in the Sydney area, and mainly in the suburbs of Rose Bay, Hurstville and Surry Hill.
Operation Compliance, held yesterday, was one of a regular one-day traffic operation targeting the use of handheld mobile phones while driving and school-zone traffic offences.
A total of 1199 motorists were each fined more than $250 and lost three demerit points for using a handheld mobile while driving.
Just over 500 motorists were caught speeding in school zones, with more than 150 of those in the state's north.
A further 134 traffic infringement notices were issued to drivers committing children's crossing offences.
NSW Police Traffic Services Commander, Assistant Commissioner John Hartley, said motorists were still not getting the message.
"Using a mobile phone while driving is extremely dangerous," he said in a statement.
"It's a major distraction which can – and does – lead to deaths on our roads, yet some motorists seem to think it's their right."
The next Operation Compliance will be held later this year.

Benazir assassination probe: Pak ATC extends remand of detained police duo
Jan 22nd
Comments | Share | Print | Benazir assassination probe: Pak ATC extends remand of detained police duo 2011-01-22 14:10:00
In the latest development in the Benazir Bhutto assassination case, a special Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) of Pakistan has extended the physical remand of two former police officials, Saud Aziz and Khurram Shahzad, for ten days.
Earlier, FIA prosecutor Chaudhry Zulfiqar had acquired an eight-day physical remand of Saud- a former Rawalpindi City Police Officer (CPO) and Shahzad- a former Superintendent of Police (SP) at Rawal Town, for the recovery of the mobile phone sets the two officers used on the day of Benazir's murder.
On Saturday (today), the Federal Investigation Agency produced the accused before the court and pleaded for a ten-day extension in their physical remand, SAMAA TV reports.
Former Rawalpindi police chief Aziz told the court that he had provided his mobile phone to the investigation team, which was in use on December 27, 2007, the day former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated.
Aziz's counsel, Wahid Anjum, argued that there was no such technology anywhere in the world that could retrieve data from a mobile phone.
However, FIA prosecutor Chaudhry Zulfiqar told the court that the SIMs handed over to the agency were not used by Aziz or Shahzad that day.
The court subsequently extended the physical remand of both the cops, and handed them over to the FIA. (ANI)

College Hockey:Yanis tallies late as Penn State edges Alabama-Huntsville
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Mark Yanis blasted a one-timer for the game-winning goal late in the third period as Penn State defeated Alabama-Huntsville 4-3 at the Greenberg Ice Pavilion.
As the game entered the final moments, Yanis, who missed more than two months with a broken foot earlier in the season, blocked a shot off his leg with just over five minutes to play.
While he admitted he could not feel his leg for a time, Yanis gutted it out and remained on the ice and ultimately proved to be a hero.
At 15:33, Taylor Holstrom ran a Charger into the boards, stole the puck, and backhanded a pass blindly through the slot. Yanis pinched into the open space and unleashed a howitzer from the high slot past UAH goaltender John Griggs' stick to give the Nittany Lions the win.
Penn State had a much improved first-period effort as opposed to Friday night's opening 20 minutes, which featured misplays and tons of defensive giveaways.
Penn State's offense quickly struck less than halfway through the first period Saturday. At 8:45, following a long cycling session in the offensive zone, Holstrom fed Casey Bailey between the circles, and the Alaska native buried a one-timer past Griggs to make it 1-0.
As the first period came to a close, Penn State continued to press the Charger defense while only dressing four defensemen because of injuries.
About halfway through regulation, at 10:45 of period two, David Glen connected on his fourth goal of the weekend and 16th of the season. On a power play, he slid to the bottom of the right circle and one-timed a shot past Griggs off a feed from Bailey.
Penn State did not hold a 2-0 lead for long, however.
The Chargers came storming back with offensive pressure of their own and at 17:34, Kyle Lysaght took a feed from Michael Webley in the right circle and drilled it past Nittany Lions' goaltender Matthew Skoff to cut the lead to 2-1.
Penn State then took two penalties in the final minute of the period, as Rich O'Brien and Connor Varley were escorted off. With 1:16 of a two-man advantage time to start the third, Huntsville connected quickly.
At the 54-second mark of the final period, Justin Cseter found a loose puck after Skoff made an initial save on Jeff Vanderlugt and tucked it into an open net from the left circle. With the game tied 2-2, the Chargers were unable to score on the back end of the power play and the game remained tied.
At 7:23, controversy entered the game's atmosphere. After stripping a puck free from behind the goal line, Kenny Brooks threw a blind bank shot into the crease. Griggs deflected it behind his body towards the goal line and while it appeared to hover around the line, the referee decisively ruled "goal" on the ice, giving Penn State a 3-2 lead.
After the game, Chargers' coach Kurt Kleinendorst was candid in his assessment of the call.
"There was not one single person behind the goal cheering," said Kleinendorst. "If you know the puck is in, you cheer, but not one single person got excited."
Despite the bad break, the Chargers did not quit and at 12:20, Brice Geoffrion deflected a point shot to the side of the net, then jabbed it past Skoff to tie the game at 3-3.
That set the stage for Yanis' game-winner.
Penn State coach Guy Gadowsky was ecstatic about his team's gutsy victory, particularly the battered blueliners.
"To play with four [defensemen], it's pretty easy to have a built-in excuse not to play hard," said Gadowsky. "I give those guys a lot of credit."
In the loss, Griggs shined for Huntsville, recording 32 saves, while Skoff turned aside 24 offerings.

I could be talking about writing, or life, or some combination of the two here, because really, the action of leaping for your dreams happens all the time. Sometimes we take tiny jumps, like the soft bounce of a bird, hopping through the grass. Other times we fly like a Grand Prix jumper over obstacles seemingly too tall for us or too wide to handle. Most of the time, though, life hands us something in between. Like a move.
Here at Jupiter Gardens we've made two moves: our website and our physical location.
Packing up everything you own and moving 500 miles away may be easier than redoing an entire website; the jury is still out on that one. Either way, it involved some big leaps, some chances, and going on faith. In the end, we have a great new website, that we're constantly improving over time, and we have a lovely new home where my horse can be on the same property with me–not boarded miles away–and I can have the quiet and solitude that I wish for along with gorgeous views.
The new website has a new look, new branding, new…well everything. And it's just as great as our new home.
So what does this mean? It means to not be afraid to take the chance. Looking back over the journey to get to both places, the website and the new home, I can't say that I knew I'd end up here in the beginning, but I sure wasn't afraid to leap.
So this weekend, think about what you'd like to do…and go ahead… don't just peer over the edge of that divide, jump over it, to find out what awaits on the other side.

Salesianum School won a closer-than-expected basketball game Sunday night with a 58-49 victory over Catholic Conference rival St. Elizabeth's. The game, played at the University of Delaware's Bob Carpenter Center, was likely closer than the final school would indicate.
"We did not play that well tonight," said Sallies coach Brendan Haley. "We played well enough to win, but we need to play better," he said.
The Sals led early, thanks to the play of senior Brian O'Neill, but the Vikings kept the game close. O'Neill scored 17 points on the night, but got in foul trouble, and eventually fouled out after delivering a "Monster Jam" in the waning moments of the fourth quarter. The Vikings Mike Piekarski also scored 17 points.
The Sals play Concord Thursday in the semifinals at the Bob.
In the other quarterfinal games, Concord narrowly defeated a stubborn St. Mark's team 40-34 in a tough, defensive battle. Early in the game, both teams were plagued with fouls. In the other quarterfinal bracket, St. Georges continues to excel in the tournament by defeating Sanford 69-66 in overtime. Lamar Hamrick scored a game-tying basket with under ten second left in regulation, before the Hawks could pull out the tremendous victory.
Cape Henlopen defeated reigning champion Howard 74-65. Cape will take on St. Georges in the other semifinal match-up on Thursday night starting at 6:30 p.m.

CHATSWORTH, Calif. — Metro Interactive has introduced new packaging for its Cal Vista library. The new digipak format is designed to showcase future Cal Vista releases in multi-disc collector's editions.
"With the decline of big-budget features, I feel that these titles will sell extremely well," said Russ Pascale, Metro's sales manager. "The customer is looking for an added value and Cal Vista's new format will give the customer what they want, while purchasing a high quality product."
The new digipaks feature embossed and foiled outer-box covers/title treatments and vivid, high resolution imagery inside. All new feature releases will also contain a special collector's disc with eight bonus award-winning or nominated scenes from the Cal Vista library.
For store security convenience, all new Cal Vista releases will be pre-packaged with an RF security strip. These strips are designed to be used with any RF door security system, and will help eliminate the need for safers and big, bulky security labels.
Cal Vista additionally plans to remaster selected Cal Vista movies in HD widescreen format for simultaneous release on standard DVD and Blu-ray disc. Metro plans to support the new releases with national ad campaigns in print and online.
Some of the planned Cal Vista releases have never before been seen on DVD. One of the remastered titles to be released in July 2008 will be the multi-award winning feature ZAZEL: The Scent of Love. The bonus disk contains an extensive photo gallery, bonus scenes, and an exclusive sneak preview of ZAZEL II, currently in production and scheduled for a spring 2009 release.

Did I miss a rule about pet adoption?
Does it matter that it was posted in humor? Does it also matter that some mod added a picture for me and didn't remove the post?
12 Answers answer
i would like to hear the joke. i'm guessing it's the "saveabunny" post that doesn't come up? i clicked it but it's gone
whisper tell it to me in my ear. i won't tell o_-
@w00tgurl: I don't remember exactly what I wrote. The deal was for adopting a bunny ($85, included fixing the beast and having it checked by a vet, among other things). I said something about the deal being for people offended by all the bunny death as of late. And then I said something about not to worry about the propagation of killer bunnies (you know how they are), because these bunnies can't procreate.
I thought it was all rather clever and humorous (obviously or I wouldn't have written and posted it). :)
@shrdlu, you didn't happen to print a .pdf of the deal, did you?
@thepenrod: haha killer bunnies. for a sec, until i saw your other post, i thought this was about the petfinder "adopttheinternet" campaign.
ahem March 15th! ahem
oh how did that link get there?
@thepenrod: I suppose I'm famous, but no, I don't usually print PDFs unless it's something I think is controversial, or has the likelihood of becoming so. However, I do have an opinion on this one...Ready?
I think that Deals is happy to sell crickets, or ladybugs, or even hermit crabs, but when it comes to the potential for suffering that offering up live animals offers is frightening. Here's a couple of scenarios:
The person offering it is a Puppy Mill (or in this case a Rabbit Mill).
Worse, the person offering animals is legitimate, and the person buying them is someone that makes all our nightmares reality.
There just needs to be good accountability on both ends, and I don't think that you can have that with random deals on a deal site. I admit it. I like you just bunches, but I'd have deleted it too. The bunny Walking Rabbit Jacket is just lovely, by the way.
@shrdlu: I understand the concerns, that's why I posted from a site that has it's own adopter requirements. Surprisingly, a lot of bunny adoption agencies/organizations seem to be very conscientious about the very concerns you mentioned. I think it may be easier to adopt a dog or cat. Anyway, a quick perusal of the site shows their hurdles and requirements. Of course somebody could lie completely, but why pay that much money to adopt a fixed bunny if you want it for nefarious and/or irresponsible purposes?
@thepenrod: I understand perfectly. I think that Deals would rather not have the precedent set, and while yours was valid, it doesn't mean the next guy would be. It's really about the big picture, much as I hate to use that old tired aphorism.
Your motives were the best. The place was a good place (I saw it, and voted for it). You've been painted with the tar brush of DOOM. Get a hand mirror, and go look at your back left shoulder. See? It's the mark of doom, and it will never wash off. No more live puppies, kitties, or bunnies. Unless it's vampire bunnies, of course. I <3 Bunnicula.
Rules? There are rules? Nobody said anything about rules.
@shrdlu: I'm pretty sure if the DW staff had any such scruples, they wouldn't keep allowing some of the sponsored deals they seem so happy to allow people to get screwed by (how's that for a horrid sentence!). ;)
@eneref: You know I'd be the first to jump up and down on staff when it's deserved, but I don't think they lack scruples. Good judgment, sometimes, but not scruples. There's some sponsored deals that are better than others, and I take everything with a grain of salt. I still think it's funny when people imply that stuff on Woot central isn't perfect.
What? You think that the reason that Woot has ten palettes of Zunes that it means that Microsoft has just released their very bestest effort, and wants to share it with the world? Or perhaps those ten palettes are some random product (Zunes are an excellent example) that is discontinued, refurbished, or no longer leading edge. No miracles here. No man behind the curtain.
Frankly, after all this time on here, I still don't know who does what. So I'm just going to start invoking staff. Squeaky wheel and what not.
Can I get an answer for this question?
@thepenrod: We are no longer going to accept deals for any live animals of any kind.
@thefenst: Thank you for a straight answer.

As I watched the space shuttle land this morning, I had a revelation. A moment of clarity impressed upon me that there are no social marketing gurus and that we needed a better description. Why? Because social marketing is so very very new that calling someone a guru is just plain wrong. The field is still being built. We have no idea where social marketing will be 5 years from now let alone next month. So I think those we respect in the industry should be called social marketing astronauts as they are exploring a great unknown and are constantly coming back with new information. Some of the self proclaimed gurus have their head in the clouds and that works as well.
Remember social marketing may be what drives the web in the future but it's still shifting and settling and it may be a lot of years before the dust clears.
Ok I admit it I'm a twitter user. I usually despise social networking if for no other reason then it's completely useless time wasting drivel. I'm a happily married guy so I have absolutely no use for spying on girls with "sexy" in their profile. I find most people to be too wrapped up in themselves to be worth listening to, and I don't really like to hear myself talk, so what value is a social network to me?
I could be just another twitter marketer who uses twitter as an outlet for link building and I do to some extent, but what has really got me is the ability to find other people in my industry ( Search Engine Optimization ) who actually know some stuff, and are willing to post a bit about what they know.
Research is the #1 most important thing you can do in the SEO industry, about half of any good SEO guru's job every week is researching marketing trends and changes, and freaking Twitter has become invaluable to me for just that. I've cut my time in half now with the creation of the SpiderLoop SEO MEME that aggregates much of my work every day and my SEO I Trust list on Twitter I've got my daily research down to an hour.
So social networking may not be that bad, and I'll grant that many people got there before me. Just use your head and don't whittle away a whole day, it's entirely too easy to drop important things while tweeting your fingers to the bone.

ReStyle is a consignment shop located in the Sherwood Forest strip mall area with plenty of free parking. Sherwood Forest is near the boundaries of Windsor Heights, Clive, and Urbandale. It carries home decor and children, women's, and men's clothing and accessories. Compared to other consignment shops, I would rate this one higher than others because the fixtures are closer to what you would find in a full retail store, with the merchandise being less crowded on the rack and more brand exclusive.
As a shopper. The prices are consistent with other area consignment shops -- $5 was the lowest price I found for a shirt. The inventory is curated to a higher standard than other stores that I have visited, which allows a reasonable amount of room to slide hangers on the fixture rod. Many stores have clothing packed so tightly that the fixtures are almost unshoppable.
Browsing in this store is fairly easy. Sizes are located on racks, and clothing is sorted by color on that rack. There are red line tags with lowered prices as well as a 'quick sale' rack. The store is in a small space and the racks are close together. Fitting rooms are available. Although the store is on one level and the parking lot has a cutout ramp, the closeness of the racks makes the space rather inaccessible. An umbrella-style stroller might work in this store, but I would advise no stroller if possible.
As a seller. Sellers should follow store guidelines -- clothing must be less than two years old and in excellent condition. The store accepts offers during business hours, makes a bid, and expects you to pick up the leftovers within 48 hours. Cash if given if you accept; high end items will be taken as consignment. The store accepts clothing from all seasons all year round. Other online reviews reveal that the store is very picky about its inventory.
For more information, visit the store's Facebook page, where coupons and photos are posted occasionally. For questions, the phone might be the best option as the Facebook page shows slow response times (several days).

I cut the small steaks off a good roast purchased on sale, then individual wrap and freeze them so just the number needed can be taken out.—Jeanette K. Cakouros, Brunswick, Maine
- 2 boneless beef sirloin steaks (5 ounces each)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
- Rub both sides of steaks with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, cook steaks in butter until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°). Remove and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, saute mushrooms until tender. Serve with steaks. Yield: 2 servings.

For my birthday my boyfriend took me out to Max Brenner's for dinner. If you're any sort of chocolate lover, you may have heard of him before. He's an Australian chocolatier with the tag line "Chocolate By the Bald Man" and has opened up chocolate themed restaurants all over the world. I haven't been able to get to one for some time, due to funds or lack of friends. So, the sweetheart that my boyfriend is, finally decided it was time that I went.
I hope to do a review on the full place sometime, but let me just state here that the food was awesome. Dinner was well portioned and extremely delicious, so much so that neither of us had the stomach space for any of his infamous chocolate desserts! So sad! However, to make up for it, we decided to take home some of his chocolate bonbons. We selected a few flavors from behind the big chocolate counters and left with some sweets to try later on.
Each of the bonbons are little squares, about an inch on each side, and about 1/2 inch tall. They have lovely designs on the tops of each so they're easily told apart from one another.
Lemon Oil: The texture is super delicate and smooth. The ganache is terribly creamy and silky. The dark chocolate is rich with nice flavors of cherry and coffee, and the lemon oil gives it a nice citrus twist which plays on the nice acidic notes of the dark chocolate. Really lovely.
Cherry Cordial: This bonbon is really delicate and smooth. This is more smokey than the others, with the slightly bitter and fruit notes of a nice cordial. It's not as cherry as I was expecting, but then again, this is flavored with cherry cordial, not just cherries so my expectation was skewed. Still delicious.
Wildflower Honey: The texture is more firm than the Lemon Oil one, but the ganache is still impeccably smooth. The flavor is of a milder, more milky dark chocolate with an added sweetness to it. You don't taste the honey until the aftertaste, as the chocolate flavor washes away and you taste the flowery, earthy flavor of the honey.
Whiskey Ganache: This bonbon is firmer texture than the others. The chocolate is sweet and is immediately cut by the flavor of the whiskey. It's got that nice alcoholic flavor without any of the burn.
Overall I was really impressed by these bonbons. They were flavorful and exciting, two things that I rarely find in a bonbon together. Now I just gotta get back to Max Brenner for more of these, and maybe some dessert this time.

Schwab's Brand-New Bond Fund: What You Should Know Before You Buy
If you have an account at Charles Schwab, as I do, then you've probably noticed those ads and emails touting the "New Global Fixed Income Opportunity"—a new mutual fund called the Laudus Mondrian Global Fixed Income Fund, which launched Wednesday.
Laudus is the brand name the brokerage uses for its own funds when they are subadvised by outside managers, and the Laudus Mondrian Global Fixed Income is the first fund with the moniker to be launched in about five years, according to John Sturiale, a vice president at Schwab.
Sturiale says that because investors are demanding products with decent yields, it was a good time to launch a global-bond fund. In press release announcing the launch of the fund, he's quoted as saying:
Our clients tell us they want exposure to the world's expanding bond markets—both for their performance potential and for their historically low correlation with other asset classes. We're pleased we can now offer investors the ability to access these markets through one fund managed by an institutional money manager known for its international fixed income capabilities.
In an interview, he added that "it made sense to put some muscle behind it," and that the response to fund has been "very, very good."
Whether it's a great opportunity for investors remains to be seen, especially since the fund doesn't have a track record. Mondrian has had success using a similar strategy in separately-managed accounts, but a mutual fund is a different beast—and the performance of Mondrian's other Schwab bond fund has been disappointing.
Laudus Mondrian International Fixed Income ranked 51st out of 67 funds in its category for three-year performance, according to Morningstar's Miriam Sjoblom, who had not yet looked at the new fund. "It's not an extremely compelling result," she says.
Her top global-bond funds include Templeton Global Bond, which had a tough 2011, and Legg Mason Brandywine Global Opportunities Bond. She also says Pimco Global Bond, which comes in versions with or without exposure to foreign currency fluctuations, is also worth considering.

COLOURFUL pub landlord Anthony Youel turned blue in honour of a French artist.
The art-loving 53-year-old, who runs The Monkey in Thurgoland, painted himself to recreate Henri Matisse's Blue Nudes, four paper cut-outs of a seated female figure which currently form part of an exhibition at the Tate Modern in London.
"I've got a love of Matisse and I just thought it would be a nice tribute," he said.
"All I try to do is make people happy and pursue my artwork. Obviously I'm not going to be everybody's cup of tea."
About 45 people turned out to watch the live exhibit in the pub car park on Sunday and there was further interest from motorists passing along Bagger Wood Road.
We called in one night not knowing any knowledge of the pub, and we was made so welcome!! Had a fantastic night, with a wonderful atmosphere! Go to other pubs and never felt as welcome as we did at the monkey. Would recommend to anyone, yes it seemed strange but what is normal? A***

The End?

Alejandro, I'm sorry to hear of your difficulties. I understand, I think, some of what you're feeling. The self-absorbed "raiders" who just want to fill up their hard drives, and probably don't even listen to half of what they dl, are a thorn in all of our sides. Perhaps after a break you'll feel like reviving it - it's difficult to break away from our blogs - we have so much of ourselves invested in them.ReplyDelete
Anyway, I wish you all the best.

I will miss you & hope you come back when your 'real' life is a less hectic. Meanwhile, enjoy your little one! :-)

"Why on earth would anyone want to adopt a
rescue dog? After all, aren't they like used cars? Who wants someone
else's problems? If the dog is so wonderful, why would anyone give him
away? If he was a stray, why didn't someone try to find him? I'd rather
buy a puppy so I know what I'm getting, and besides they're so cute!"
Rescue groups often hear a variation of this conversation.
Many prospective dog owners are just not convinced that owning an older
(i.e, 6 mo.+) "pre-owned" dog is better than buying a puppy.
But there are a number of reasons why adopting a pet from a rescue that
carefully screens and evaluates its dog can provide an even better alternative.
Here are the "Top 10 Reasons You Should
Consider a Rescue."
Unfortunately, many folks think dogs that end up
in rescue are all genetically and behaviorally inferior. But, it is
not uncommon for Rescue to get $500 dogs that have either outlived their
usefulness or their novelty with impulsive owners who considered their
dog a possession rather than a friend or member of the family; or simply
did not really consider the time, effort and expense needed to be a
dog owner. Not all breeders will accept "returns", so choices
for giving up dogs can be limited to animal welfare organizations, such
as Rescues, or the owners trying to place their own dogs. Good Rescues
will evaluate the dog before accepting him/her (medically, behaviorally,
and for breed confirmation), rehabilitate if necessary, and adopt the
animal only when he/she is ready and to a home that matches and is realistic
about the commitment necessary to provide the dog with the best home
Choosing a rescue dog over a purchased pup will
not solve the pet overpopulation problem (only responsible pet owners
and breeders can do that), but it does give many of them a chance they
otherwise would not have. But, beyond doing a "good deed",
adopting a rescue dog can be the best decision and addition to the family
you ever made. Rescue a dog and get a devoted friend for life!

Tech Primed For Saturday Season Opener
Meet Information | Texas Tech Notes | Heat Sheets | Schedule of Events
Jan. 11, 2013
LUBBOCK, Texas - The Texas Tech track and field program officially begins its 2013 indoor season Saturday as the Red Raiders and Lady Raiders host the Texas Tech Open inside the Athletic Training Center.
The single-day meet is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. with running events following at 11:30 a.m. A total of 30 teams and over 500 athletes will compete alongside Tech in the first of back-to-back home meets to open the 2013 season.
"We're very excited for this meet." Texas Tech head coach Wes Kittley, who begins his 14th season on Saturday, said. "It's going to be a really great opportunity for newcomers, and for both our men's and women's teams to lay a foundation for the entire indoor season."
Texas Tech returns a total of eight All-Americans for the 2013 campaign, including five who earned All-America honors during the 2012 indoor season.
Texas Tech Breakdown
Lewis was also a member of the Lady Raider 4x400 indoor relay team in 2012 and enters 2013 with a personal-best of 54.91 in the indoor 400-meter. White, who had a breakout 2012 as one of the top young sprinters for the Lady Raiders enters with a personal-best time of 7.03 in the 55-meter dash and a personal-best time of 23.62 in the 200-meter.
Meanwhile, senior sprinter Isaiah Gill will anchor the Red Raider sprinters, and be a veteran on the relay teams. Gill finished third last year at the Big 12 Championships in the 400-meter dash, and enters the 2013 season with a personal-best time of 46.89 in the event.
Meanwhile, the Red Raiders will welcome newcomer Tramaine Maloney, cousin of former Red Raider hurdler and 2012 Olympian Shane Brathwaite. Brathwaite along with Jamele Mason, the 2012 NCAA 400-meter hurdle runner-up and Puerto Rico Olympian, graduated following the 2012 season.
The Red Raiders also return the services of senior Ezekiel Kissorio who emerged during the 2012 outdoor season finishing sixth at the Big 12 Championships in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. The Lady Raiders return the services of Chelsea Scott and Rachel Folan, both seniors who competed at the Big 12 Championships last season. Caitlin Waters, a junior, also returns after garnering two top-five finishes in the 800-meter run last season.
Horizontal Jumps
The Lady Raiders return the services of Avril McGhee in 2013 who had a breakout freshman campaign as a talented triple jumper. McGhee finished fifth overall at the 2012 Big 12 Indoor Championships while turning in a season-best mark of 12.35m (40'-6.25").
High Jumpers
Meanwhile, the Lady Raiders return freshman Michaela Palu who redshirted during the 2012 indoor season before competing during the outdoor season.

The Harder They Fall: Crown Boxing
By Sunset Thomas, Doghouse Boxing (Nov 27, 2009)
When Crown Boxing puts on an event in the Mardi Gras Ballroom at the Orleans Casino here in Vegas, the press is seated around the ring (though there are no bad seats in the house, ringside is a step up for the press compared to the other larger Las Vegas venues).
So I let Frankie Gambino select our seats. And of course he chose a neutral corner (there are two of those, if you don't know). Of course, Frankie the freakazoid selected the one next to the spot the ring-girls (a couple of very fine filly's from the Bada-Bing strip club) climbed through the ropes and then returned between rounds!
Actually, that was okay by me. I like a tanned and toned tart as much as the next person.
I love going to the Orleans and watching Crown Boxing events. I love going to small venues. I like watching hungry young pros with nothing to lose and only experience to gain. Frankie does too, he says back in the day they called 'em "smokers" because you could hardly see the ropes through the wafts of cigar and cigarette smoke that filled the tiny auditoriums that hosted round after round of competitive, boxing matches by guys hoping to make a name for themselves (not that you can smoke inside the Mardi Gras Ballroom).
Of course, we were at the event for the expressed purpose of watching young Rocco Santomauro's pro debut (I wrote about the young'en in my last article) and he didn't disappoint.
Frank Lucca, who promotes Rocco as well as the Orleans cards, could well have stuck the kid in with a fighter who either hadn't yet fought (just as Rocco) or who had a losing record. Let's be honest, the commissioneven the grand Nevada State Boxing Commissionwould have sanctioned almost anyone for a debut fighter. But no, Lucca and trainer Pops Anderson and conditioning coach Bobby Chiodini wanted to test the kid right out of the gate. And so they paired him with a pretty fair pug by way of Tucson by the name of Jose Fernandeza kid with only one previous pro fightbut a win at that. Another hungry, young stallion making his Vegas debut after winning his opener in Arizona.
Frankie took his ogling eyes off the Bada Bing girls long enough to enunciate a sentence when in the first round Rocco knocked Fernandez to the canvas! "See that! The kids first fight. The first round. And shebang, he gets a knockdown. That's an omen, that's portentous, that's a fine way for the young Rocco to start his pro career," Gambino roared in my ear.
And although he never landed the "big one" Rocco did fight a spirited four-rounder against an equally spirited opponent, taking a unanimous decision. Chiodini was thrilled and couldn't wait to tell us that the young buck would fight again on a Crown card on January 22ndagain at the Orleans.
Each of the five fights on the card that night provided excellent entertainment and the finalethe main eventwas an eight rounder between Cruiserweights Harley Kilfian and Patrick "100%" Liles (a local favorite). Kilfian was probably the toughest opponent Liles had faced8 wins, 7 by KO with only 2 losses (both coming by decision).
Liles, who is something of a KO specialist himself, had however, lost his previous two outings and so this was something of a make or break bout. Liles didn't disappoint. After losing the first round to the slugging Kilfian, Liles closed out the second with a blast that sent Harley sprawling to the canvasunable to rise to the count, referee Jay Nady waved it offA knockout to end an evening of boxing!

and search for Anatomy of an Adult Film, that's my bookit's doing well.
Anatomy of an Adult Film
is a fast-paced read and a sexy rompI'm sure you'll love it!
Frankie Gambino is a big fan of Frank Lucca and Crown Boxing and for good reason. See Frankie is old schoolin fact, I told him he was "Ancient school," as he continually passed smiles to the green eyed, tanned, perky ring girl. He's such a hound!
Frankie is proud of quoting the late, great Howard Cosell who said of Luca, "The man of the hour who brings his fighters to win." And Cus D'amato: "Frank is the man who makes things happen."
"Kid," he told me, "Luca promoted Earnie Shavers and you know what? He was one hellava fighter hisselfundefeated as a pro, until an eye injury put him out of the game."
See, what Frankie Gambino and I both love about Crown Boxing bouts are that fighters are paired evenly. You get battles. You get hungry pugs. Unlike, so many undercard bouts at the bigger venues, where promoters pit rising hopefuls against fighters that will do little to threaten their ascension, Luca puts two combatants together, who are trying to make their mark. Trying to earn respect and learn the ropes with hopes of rising in class and caliber. And baby, that's what an entertaining evening of boxing should be all about!
Las Vegas is known as "The Fight Capital of the World," and for damn good reason. We have Top Rank, with Bob Arum, we have Golden Boy Promotions with Oscar De La Hoya, we have the occasional Duva Boxing event as well as others, but what we have on a monthly basis is Friday Night Fights at the Orleans Casino!

EBS VMs explained

Thanks Steven!
Why does this stuff matter? Well, in general, virtualization (or cloud) solutions provide an easy way to create Virtual Machines. Whether it's through a "cloud api" or just a virtualization API. But all you end up with, in the end, is still just a Virtual Machine... Maybe with an OS pre-installed/pre-configured. So you have flexibility of moving VMs around and providing a VM but what about the actual applications (anything more than a very basic app)?
The application administrator then still has to go and install and configure the OS for that application and install the application and its patches and basic configuration so that the application user then can go in. Building gold images for complex software stacks that are not owned by the users/admins is always very difficult.

A particular sequence gave the following error when I tried to run SSpro locally:
ERROR: query sequence in alignment different from query sequence given on cmdline
ERROR: unable to pad alignment
ERROR: unable to convert Blast output to SSpro format
ERROR: parsing blast output
Any idea what the problem might be?
We have seen this only on a couple of occasions, and it could have to do with SSPro not finding any hits (e.g., it could happen for a short sequence).
You can try to set the following environment variable to use the much large 'nr' sequence database rather than the default 'pdb' (however, note, that SSpro will now take much longer to run because it has to run BLAST against the nr database):
for bash: export PSP_SSPRO_DB = nr
for t/csh: setenv PSP_SSPRO_DB nr
After setting this environment variable, start up Maestro from the shell where the environment variable was set and try the job again.
We have also in the past seen this problem when older versions of BLAST have been used with newer versions of Prime.

Run circles around the competition with the Pearl Izumi Men's EM Road M3 Running Shoes. These shoes feature exceptional cushioning and support to stabilize mid-foot pronation. The 1:1 Shock absorption foam helps to absorb impact across the miles.
Best Shoe for my foot
I was fitted at a running store for my crazy feet, and these were the shoes I bought. My first pair was $120. After about 300 miles running on these shoes it was time to replace them and I found this crazy good deal. They shipped quickly and were everything I needed. I also had to chat with a rep from the website about sizing and she was very helpful. I am a chick with big wide feet. I normally wear a woman's 11, I have these in a Men's 10,5 and they fit perfectly.

Great shoes, made a big difference
These shoes have been great for me. They're comfortable and have really made a difference in my running. I'm a beginner, and these are my first pair of real running shoes. I no longer get shin and knee pain when I run... And the only difference is these shoes. They are a little tight and stiff, but (a) they are new and (b) they're stability shoes, so I think that's to be expected. They run really small--I ordered a half size up, and I wish I had ordered a whole size up.

A report expected to be released on February 27 or 28 could allow the early stages of oil exploration to move forward on the U.S. Atlantic seaboard, which has long been off limits for oil and gas drilling. The Department of Interior will publish its final environmental analysis, which will clear a major hurdle on the way toward allowing the seismic testing off the East Coast in decades. The report is expected to be greeted with strong pushback from environmentalists.
At issue is whether or not Interior's environmental analysis adequately takes into account the effect of seismic testing on whales, dolphins, and other marine animals. Seismic testing involves blasting sound waves to the seabed, which give engineers detailed 3-D maps that can inform where the best places to drill might be. However, the acoustic disturbance can harm marine life, and the National Marine Fisheries Service is developing guidelines on seismic testing. Environmental groups argue that Interior is moving forward before those guidelines are published.
And opposition is not just coming from environmentalists. Nine Senators sent a joint letter to Secretary of Interior Sally Jewell on February 26, arguing that seismic testing should not be allowed until the best available science is known, including the incorporation of NMFS data.
While the environmental analysis will not green light seismic testing outright, it will be a key determinant in how the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management evaluates the 13 pending permits hoping to begin work. The Department of Interior develops five-year plans on which blocks of ocean it will auction off to oil companies. There are no Atlantic blocks in the current five-year plan, but Interior's next moves may have implications for what they include in the 2017-2022 plan.
The Atlantic seaboard is expected to hold substantial oil reserves, but until detailed seismic surveys are conducted, the specifics are unknown. Environmental groups hope that by preventing seismic testing, they can stop oil drilling in the Atlantic before it gets started.

Miami Dolphins: Tony Sparano considers Brett Favre
With conflicting reports out there that Brett Favre may/may not retire (again), this time from the Vikings, Miami Dolphins coach Tony Sparano was asked for his reaction.
He was in the "middle of [planning] practice schedules" this morning, so it's not like he was sitting around the Dolphins offices telling Favre stories, but with the Dolphins headed to Minnesota in Week 2 — Sept. 19 — the subject had more relevance than usual.
"There were times where with Brett, you kind of felt like it was 7 on 7 out there and nobody was on the other side," Sparano said of past battles with Favre. "Some of the throws he made, some of the plays he made. I remember in Dallas, us having him in the grasp a few different times. He spun out one time, spun around, [we] kind of had him again, we thought he was down. Next thing you know he flips this thing up and he makes a big play on us.
"Then we see this thing down here in the first game that I coached in here (Jets at Dolphins, 2008), my first at-bat, this thing goes up in the air and ends up coming down into somebody's hands. It's amazing. The good players, sometimes they make it look easy, and he made it look pretty easy for a long time."
Asked if he believes Favre is going to retire/stay retired this time, Sparano gave a wry smile.
"I'll believe it when the season starts and he's at that couch somewhere out there," he said. "All I know is we're going to Minnesota in Week 2. I hope he's … "
"We'll see."
Laughter all around.
No Favre in Minnesota would mean the Dolphins facing either Tarvaris Jackson or old friend Sage Rosenfels in a key regular-season game.
So, do you see Favre in that game or not? And how huge would it be for the Dolphins, as they adjust to Mike Nolan's new defensive schemes, to avoid facing a big-time QB until Week 4 at the soonest? (No, I'm not counting Mark Sanchez and his 20 interceptions. Not yet.)

You can't help but be intrigued by the history of GoPro and its founder, Nicholas Woodman, when you check out the latest in the line up of these "Go Anywhere" cameras. Ryan Mac, of Forbes Magazine, thoroughly captures the chronology of Woodman's "overnight" success, which actually took closer to a decade of trials and tribulations, failures and successes that shaped not only the company but also Nicholas himself. Woodman's GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition is the culmination of a series of cameras that went far beyond Woodman's first wrist strapped camera so that surfers could capture the action and epic waves.
Today GoPro is the number-one activity-capture company in the world. It's also the fastest growing camera company. Not bad for a cool surfer dude who had an idea and went with it. Woodman is now worth a cool $1.3 billion. But GoPro wasn't an overnight success. As Woodman says in his interview with Mac, "It was a classic 10-year overnight success case."
What's so cool about the GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition? There's a lot to like in the most advanced GoPro yet. For starters:
- Resolutions up to 4K capture professional quality, radically smooth motion playback.
- 12MP photos at up to 30 frames per second in a 1-second burst. Great for time lapse capture which the Hero3+ can do ranging from 0.5 to 60-second intervals.
- 20% smaller and lighter than previous models.
- SuperView is a new feature with the Hero3+ Black Edition. This mode allows you to capture a wide angle (16:9 aspect ratio) when shooting 1080p or 720p footage by stretching out the sides of the video to fit the 16:9 frame. Perfect for capturing expansive scenery such as ski slopes as you hot dog your way down the slopes.
- Speedy Built-in Wi-Fi (yes!) that enables you to control up to 50 cameras from a distance as far as 600 feet (180 meters).
- Auto Low Light mode is new with this model. Now you can capture amazing video and photos in low light conditions as the GoPro automatically adjusts for those scenarios.
- Backwards compatible with all GoPro mounts and accessories.
- Not only does the GoPro Hero3+ Black capture amazing video but also Awesome Audio. Even during high-speed action shots the audio is clearer with less wind-noise.
- Longer battery life is improved by 30%.
- The GoPro App enables you to use your smartphone (iPhone and Android) as a super slick remote control for your GoPro camera. Adjust settings, start/stop recording, switch modes and check your battery level. Perfect for times when your camera is hard-to-reach. Live preview mode also lets you see what your GoPro sees so you can get the perfect composition.
- Waterproof up to 131 feet/40 meters. Amazing.
What we liked about the GoPro is how super simple it is to use. The GoPro App was easy to use and navigate right off the bat. We were able to go nonstop using the App on our iPhone 5S for a full hour (which drained our iPhone to about 60%). The Hero3+ uses only micro SD cards and I recommend getting several to be sure you capture all the action. (NOTE: The Hero3+ requires a 64 GB Class 10 MidroSD card.) I would also get a few extra batteries if you know you're going to shoot for more than an hour. While the battery life has improved you can estimate about one hour for each battery. That's not enough if you're traveling and unable to recharge quickly.
The GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition set out to be the best action capture camera in its class. Whether you're headed to the Alps or your backyard, for a cool $399.99 you can capture extreme video and stills of your next epic adventure. It's backed by the companies 30-day money back guarantee.

Architect David Childs, center, gestures while looking over a model of the design for the Freedom Tower to be built on the World Trade Center site during an unveiling ceremony in Federal Hall, New York, Friday, Dec. 19, 2003. Looking on with Childs, from left, Charles Gargano, Joseph Seymour, Larry Silverstein, New York Gov. George Pataki, and architect Daniel Libeskind. The model shows the tower, center left, in its Lower Manhattan setting.
AP Photo NEW YORK -- A new design for the Freedom Tower at the World Trade Center site slopes gracefully into a spire rising 1,776 feet, echoing the Statue of Liberty, images released Friday show.
The new plan -- which comes after months of contentious negotiations between designers Daniel Libeskind and David Childs -- retains many elements of Libeskind's original plan but appears to smooth out its most angular elements.
At a news conference to unveil the design, Childs said the tower must be "simple and pure in its form, a memorable form that will reclaim the resilience and the spirit of our democracy."
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the tower -- which would be the world's tallest -- would "dramatically reclaim a part of the New York City skyline that was lost on 9-11."
"This is a wonderful day, not just for New York, but for America," said Bloomberg, who appeared with the architects and Gov. George Pataki to unveil the new design.
The cost is estimated at $1.5 billion, said Charles Gargano, vice chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the public agency that owns the site.
Gargano said the Port Authority, once headquartered in the World Trade Center, plans to occupy one-third of the building's office space. The governor's Manhattan offices will also be located in the tower.
The plan follows the original, asymmetrical structure proposed by Libeskind, who was originally tapped as the architect to remake ground zero by the Lower Manhattan Development Corp., the agency charged with redevelopment.
But Childs, who was appointed by leaseholder Larry Silverstein, succeeded in including a lattice structure filled with energy-generating windmills at the top of the building. Childs likened the suspension elements of the new design to the Brooklyn Bridge, with the bottom of the building "torqued or twisted."
The building is to be put up on the northwest part off the World Trade Center site, not on the footprint of the vanished towers.
The plan calls for a cable suspension structure that creates an open area above the building's 70 floors of office space, and houses windmills to generate energy. The windmills could provide 20 percent of the building's energy.

DePaul Defeats Women's Tennis, 7-0
April 6, 2005
Chicago, Ill.- The UIC women's tennis team couldn't get much going against a strong DePaul team, as the crosstown Blue Demons downed the Flames 7-0 at the UIC Outdoor Courts on Wednesday.
UIC (6-9) fell behind early by dropping the doubles point despite a strong comeback win for the duo of Melanie Humphrey and Grace Gill-Morlis. The tandem downed Bojana Murisic and Anja Mihadinec by an 8-7 count.
DePaul (14-7) then held off the Flames by sweeping every singles match.
UIC hits the road for a two-match road trip this weekend. The Flames face Louisville in Louisville, Kentucky this Saturday at 1 p.m., then head to Indianapolis to face Horizon League rival Butler on Sunday at 9 a.m.
