Best vacation spot in South Beach!
The Sherbrook is located in the best central location on Collins Ave. The massive room had wooden floors, full size appliances dining table/chairs, nice pictures on the wall, in all a very "homey" room.
Some of my friends stayed at the Riu Hotel and was impressed that the Sherbrooke room is much bigger, cleaner and had great amenities for the price!
Everything I needed was within a few blocks of the place. Dining, shopping, dancing, beach and beautiful people! If you don't feel like going out you can sit and relax on the porch of the hotel which I enjoyed.
I truly miss the Sherbrooke after spending 5 nights there and cannot wait to return next Columbus Day weekend or even much sooner!
Excellent value for such a location
Spent five nights there between May 13 and 18/04. Excellent value for such a close location to the beach. The apartment was very clean and everything worked. It was great having central air so you could adjust to what temperature you personally wanted. The windows are all new in the apartments and wind out nicely if you so desire to get outside air. Mitch the owner was more than welcoming when I arrived. Got to give him a lot of praise as he seems to be "jack of all trades" for the complex! Ocean drive only a short block away with all the restaurants and bars and of course the beach. A block in the other direction was Washington Ave. with lots of shopping and more. One of the best values I have seen in South Beach.
Excellent for What You'd Expect
We stayed at the Sherbrooke for the weekend and it was exactly what we were looking for: a clean, simple place in a perfect location. Our room was actually quite spacious, with a separate dining area and full kitchen. The location is perfect and even though we were there primarily for the nightlife, we still appreciated the fact that things are much quieter on Collins than on Ocean when it comes time to wind down the evening. The beach is convenient -- one block away.
Sure there's no decor to speak of, and the facilities are pretty basic, but it was clean (no trace of pests) and very affordable ($90/night). As a bonus, the owner, Mitch, got us in the backdoor at Mambo's, which is a popular nightclub next door. I would definitely stay at the Sherbrooke again.
Sherbrooke is awesome
Loved the Sherbrooke. My girlfriend and i just spent 5 days there, we would have stayed another 5 if we could. she's a little picky on where we stay sometimes so i was a little nervous. she loved it. only complaint was bed wasn't very comfortable, but no biggie. best location and value in south beach. felt like a little hideaway, no front desk to mess with, can come and go w/o having to see or talk to anyone. don't get all the noise and traffic of ocean drive but do get all the benefits of being so close. not swanky but everything you need for a beach vacation. who spends time in their room in south beach anyway?? plenty of space, fridge, microwave, and stove. compass market right across the street for anything you need plus deli sandwiches, beer, etc. internet cafe across the street if you need internet. primetime on corner has a great breakfast, relatively inexpensive. we'll be back to the sherbrooke. sherbrooke rocks.
Good budget-minded option
The Sherbrooke Hotel is the 5th hotel that I've used in South Beach.
The price through Orbitz was approximately $150 per night and I believe it was worth it. The building dates back to before WWII and it's age shows in places, but the rooms were clean with remodeled bathrooms(excellent water pressure in the shower!). The location was terrific as the 901 Collins address puts it in the middle of the Art Deco District and only a brief walk from many nice restaraunts on Ocean Drive. It is an apartment style facility with a kitchenette including refrigerator, range and microwave. While many of the hotels in South Beach suffer from noise issues, the Sherbrooke never presented a problem with its double-paned windows and serviceable AC. So if you're interested in a good location and decent but not posh digs, this is a good option.
The Sherbrook Hotel is the BEST value in South Beach!
This year was my 6th year going to South Beach.I have stayed at some hotels that were about $150 and other that were $250 a night. The Sherbrooke was closer to the hotels that I've paid $250 + for but for FAR less. This hotel was a great suprise.Very clean. Tons of room.
Stove, full size fridge, microwave, several ceiling fans, great lighting, lots of room. No reception area to deal with (which I like) but if you need to be catered to hand & foot, maybe this is not the place. If you want a great deal, lots of space, cool room- all at a great deal, then get a room here! You will NOT find a hotel better than this for this price!!!!!
Good Deal
Stayed here a week in February. Found clean and modest suite steps from Ocean Drive with the helpful owner manager inhouse. Great location.
Great price. Annie of Portland, Maine
Still Up In the Air
I'm still up in the air about Sherbrooke. The price we got was great ($79/nt) and the location was great, although you definitely can't see the ocean like all the pictures show when you're on their website. It was one block off Ocean Drive right by the main beach access. Very art deco/1950's, but the bathroom still had dirt in the corners from that era also. The bathroom was sooo small, no place to put anything (like grandma's house circa 1940). The tub was small and gross, still had some hairs on the outside of it. Window in shower/tub with no curtain, faced a building, and don't think anyone could see in, but not certain. There isn't a traditional lobby with a desk, Mitch (who was extremely pleasant) met us at the cab and helped w/ our luggage. It felt more like a boarding house than a hotel, but this is the first time to this area and maybe that's what the hotels are like around there. We're not used to uncarpeted floors/non-traditional hotels. Pros: location, good ceiling fans, coffee shop right across street, Mitch, washer/dryer avail, kitchenette, beds seemed clean, priceCons: bathroom, bathroom, bathroom; funky odors from wood burning to diesel smell in hallways, potential for noise from traffic and partiers, no comfortable chairs in room for reading - just fold up card table chairs, no brochures or info on where to go/what to do and I wouldn't know how to find person in charge if needed Would I stay again if I was down there? Maybe, now that I know what I'm bargaining for. I would explore all my options.
Truly South Beach's Best Kept Secret
Although I have visited South Beach on several occasions previously, I recently visited (August 2002) and can proclaim, definitively, that I experienced the best accommodation thus far! I discovered the Sherbrooke Hotel, located on Collins Ave., in the heart of everything that is South Beach!!
If you have had any experience with accommodations in South Beach, one quickly realizes that almost all hotels proclaim that properties are "first class." It can become a trite, and often inaccurate, description of properties once your eyes actually view it firsthand. However, the Sherbrooke Hotel is definitely one of those understated properties. First of all, the ALL SUITES hotel rooms are HUGE, complete with a sitting area at the entrance, fully equipped kitchen(even a full-sized refrigerator and microwave no less).
The bedroom area is large as well, with a ceiling fan and a host of cable channels available on the television. Further, one of the greatest highlights, is the fact that the suite has a dedicated central air unit with a personal thermostat, so that you can adjust the exact temperature to your preference. This is quite a PLUS in the South Beach area to be in total control of your room's temperature, coupled with a unit that can EASILY achieve the temperature you desire -- even in the heat of summer!!
Other atypical conveniences of The Sherbrooke Hotel is the INDIVIDUAL and DIRECT phone line that is in the room -- no operators or switchboards necessary. Your suite has its own phone number just as you would have in your own home. And, finally, yet another great point, is the security of the hotel. The doors of the hotel stay LOCKED AT ALL TIMES and your key to the front door allows access to the hotel. Further, to allow for visitors to your room, an intercom at the front entrance allows the person to call your room using the directory and keypad.
The suite was very clean and neat and the individualized service uncompromising. Mitch, property manager of The Sherbrooke, is quite attentive to any needs or concerns and he is only a phone call away if assistance is warranted by the guest. I have nothing but the highest regards for Mitch and his operation of The Sherbrooke. Undoubtedly, my next itinerary to South Beach will include accommodations at The Sherbrooke and yours should as well!! My sincere "thanks" to Mitch for making it a great stay!!

Coughing for Eight Years
Q: Thanks for your informative column on body signs and symptoms. ("What Your Body is Telling You," June 23.) You didn't mention coughs. I've had one on and off for about eight years. What could it mean?
Health Journal
A: A cough is the most common reason that Americans see their doctors—some 26 million visits a year. Yet the phenomenon is still under-researched compared with other conditions, says Peter Dicpinigaitis, a pulmonary critical-care specialist who is director of the Cough Center at Montefiore Medical Center in Bronx, N.Y.
He says it is important to differentiate between acute coughs that last for three weeks or less; chronic coughs that last for two months or more; and those in between. Most acute coughs are due to the common cold, so if they come with other symptoms, like a runny nose and congestion, they will most likely resolve within a few weeks. If a cough is brand new, but associated with other symptoms, don't wait before consulting a doctor, Dr. Dicpinigaitis says. A cough with phlegm that is green, yellow or mixed with blood could indicate pneumonia; cough with severe chest pain could indicate a heart problem or a blood clot.
Coughs that linger for months could have a variety of causes, but about 90% are due to post-nasal drip, asthma or gastroesophageal reflux disease —or a combination of those issues. And in some cases, it becomes a vicious circle. "The act of coughing may traumatize the lining of the lung, where the cough receptors lie, so the more you cough, the more you cough," Dr. Dicpinigaitis says.
In rare causes, the cause is lung cancer or a disease such as pulmonary fibrosis or something that a patient has ingested. Some medications, including ACE inhibitors, can cause coughing. The first step should be a full work-up from a primary-care physician or a pulmonary specialist.

Four years ago, there was a certain price to pay - for taxpayers - when Philadelphia's election commissioners ran for office.
It was about $78,000 - and there's concern that there will be a similar price to pay in the May primary.
That sum was the total collected by three retired city judges who filled in as election commissioners while the commissioners were campaigning for office.
State law provides for judges to sit in temporarily for election officials on the ballot, but the job typically falls to sitting judges already collecting salaries.
In 2007, then-Court of Common Pleas President Judge Darnell Jones appointed retired judges instead. A candidate himself that year for Pennsylvania Supreme Court (he lost), Jones wanted to avoid any conflict by eliminating the possibility of having a fellow sitting judge involved in counting votes in his race.

TravelPod Member ReviewsSeattle Airport Marriott
What a pretty hotel! We took the shuttle to the hotel, had a great meal, enjoyed the overall feeling of the hotel, had a good rest before catching our morning flight. The courtyard outside was super sharp. It was really nice!

Historical Traveler Reviews Seattle Airport Marriott
Interesting Marriott Property
This was a unique layout for a Marriott (I've stayed at quite a few all over the world) - a central atrium area with a pool surrounded by rooms on all 4 sides. The architecture was woodsy/cabin-like. It is located on top of a hill overlooking the Sea-Tac Airport. Don't expect to walk anywhere, the hill is pretty steep - but the hotel offers a great shuttle service to/from the airport that runs every 15 minutes. The shuttle only takes 5 minutes to get to the airport.
We arrived in the evening & check-in was prompt. The bellman was super helpful with our luggage & also gave us great directions to restaurants (there are quite a few near a Mall in Tukwila - a 5-10 minute cab ride away). There is a restaurant near the lobby & room service wasn't that expensive.
As you walk further in to the atrium, it seemed pretty dark, but the trees had lights in them & the skylights created a nice ambiance. There were tons of people, young & old at the pool. It was pretty noisy down there. We HIKED to the our room, as it was all the way on the other side of the property. Be sure to request a room near the elevators or you might get tired.
This is an older Marriott property, and you can tell by the room decor, but I still found it comfortable & convenient for a night stay before catching a flight. The 2 double beds weren't as posh as at other Marriotts, but an awesome view of the pool area below compensated for it. With the windows closed, I didn't hear any noise at all. My 6 year old enjoyed the pool & there are locker rooms complete with showers so you don't have to walk dripping wet up to your room.
I've read mixed reviews about this property, but I enjoyed my stay nonetheless. It's a great place for families & business travelers that need to be near the airport.
Tired and Disappointing
Only stayed at this property for one night in early July, but that was enough. I'm a huge Marriott fan and had never been disappointed in a Marriott property, but this one was the first. We arrived in our rental car. We were given no clue as to what the parking situation was (valet, self park, etc.). We were greeted in the lobby by the food and beverage manager (different).
The way the property is laid out, we had to walk all the way around it (indoor corridors) to our room. Once there, our keys did not work (had to use cell phone to call front desk, who sent up new keys about five minutes later). Once in room, had to walk all the way back around front to retrieve my car and find a place to park. I usually have a good sense of direction, but this place was very hard to navigate and I found the "you are here" diagrams at the elevator stations not very helpful.
Our room was clean but worn, big ripples in the carpeting that could have been stretched out without too much effort. Corridors need paint. Positives included the early bird dinner we had in the restaurant (very good and moderately priced for hotel fare) and the bellman (yes, we finally found one) who was very helpful with suggestions and directions.
We're planning another trip to Seattle in September and I've already booked us elsewhere, and would suggest you do the same.
Kind of worn out!
Friendly staff and good location but this is a tired hotel in need of a major update.
Not staying here again
We were expecting a much nicer hotel than we got. The rooms were very outdated and seemed dirty. However, the pool was great and we loved the atrium. I would not stay here again.
Below Average, old and tired
I travel for business 100+ nights a year and stay almost exclusively at Marriott properties.
To me, this seemed to be a rather tired example of a Marriott. The rooms had the standard Marriott decor, but my room (and my colleague's room, too) were not terribly fresh. The rooms looked like they could use a renovation. On the plus side, the bed (although not one of Marriott's new type) was great, comfortable and had nice linens.
The staff was certainly friendly and nice, but that did not make up for the fact that the whole place could use a renovation in my opinion. Not a terrible hotel by any means, just not the newest and best example of what Marriott offers.
Many of the rooms face onto a big indoor pool area that looks like one of those old "Holidomes" that were popular at Holiday Inns in the 1980s.
I was disappointed by the experience at this hotel and would likely stay at the brand new Hilton next door next time I'm in the area.
About Average
I stayed at the Marriott at Sea Tac during a recent busines trip and the overall experience is okay.
The charge for the room was USD 84 plus taxes.
The staff was friendly and helpful which I have put as the best part of my experience.
My room was fairly small, as was the bathroom. The room was facing the atrium style indoor pool area. This was particularly annoying as my stay was on the weekend and the pool was occupied by screaming kids until late at night and again from early morning.
I did ask to be moved to a room away from the pool area but was told that this was impossible due to the high occupancy at the hotel.
I had dinner at the hotel and the food was about average.
Overall not too bad, but given the huge choice of hotels close to Sea Tac, I am not likely to stay at the Marriott again.
Very Tired Property and Dirty
Stayed two evenings in May 2004 for a conference. Despite being a Silver Elite Marriott Rewards member, was told Executive Level Lounge was so small only Gold and Platinum could use.
Room was per reservation, but seemed like miles away from the lobby- again especially for Silver Elite.
Room was very dated and tired as was the entire hotel. Dirty carpet in hall ways. Parking was $12 a day, which was ridiculous as other near airport hotels don't charge.
Only positive was the bell staff (when at their station) and shuttle bus driver.
Very disappointing and will not stay again ever.
Great Hotel - Excellent Service
I have stayed at the Sea-Tac Marriott four times in the past three-four months and I really like this hotel.
Every aspect of the service is excellent! This is a very well run hotel!
This hotel has a good "feel" about it to me. All of the rooms that I have stayed in have Marriott's new ultra-comfortable bed, pillows, and bedding. I wish my bed at home was this comfortable.
This Marriott offers "Wired for Businss," the combination of HS internet access and long distance for $9.95 per day, a good value in my opinion.
Parking was $12.00 per day, which seems expensive for this area, but the hotel room rate was reasonable.
I have used the self-service business center several times and have never been charged for hooking-up my laptop and printing, then copying.
The hotel is build around a nice indoor pool area, but I have yet to use it.
The location of this hotel is great. It is very close to the airport, yet it is in a quiet residential area. The business areas of Renton and Kent are directly East of the hotel about 3 miles. (you can skip the freeway bu exiting the hotel to the right and take 176th East which turns in to 178th and then 180th [and 43rd]).
I like this hotel a lot. I can recommend it for it's excellent service, comfortable rooms, and great location.
Great Location - Nice Hotel
I live in NW Washington and had to take an unexpected trip to the East Coast. My flight left a 6AM so i decided to get a hotel close to the airport. The Marriott was very close, had frequent bus shuttles and secure parking. (Parking is not free!)
The staff was great and the rooms where well appointed. Neat inner court with pools and trees.

No stranger to Loyola University Maryland athletics or the Baltimore-Washington metro area, Keith Booth was named an assistant coach for the Loyola men's basketball team prior to the 2013-2014 season.
Booth served as an assistant women's basketball coach at Loyola from 2011-2013 and was an assistant coach at the University of Maryland from 2004-2011 for then head coach Gary Williams.
"I am excited that Keith will be bringing his basketball knowledge as a player, coach and recruiter to our staff," Head Coach G.G. Smith said at the time of his appointment. "In learning to know him as a co-worker at Loyola for the past two years, I have seen that he has a tremendous care for players, and (Loyola head women's basketball coach) Joe Logan could not have spoke higher of Keith as a person or a coach.
"Keith brings an broad understanding of not only Baltimore basketball and recruiting, but his experience as a player and coach at Maryland and player in the NBA will be huge benefits to our program.
A Baltimore native, Booth played at Dunbar High School, earning Parade and McDonald's All-America honors for the Poets in 1993. He helped guide his team to the Maryland Class `A' State Championship and was named the Baltimore City and State of Maryland Player of the Year that season by The Baltimore Sun.
"It is an honor to continue to be a part of Loyola athletics, and I am looking forward to working with these players and Coach Smith to continue the success Loyola men's basketball has accomplished," said Booth.
He continued his playing career at the University of Maryland as one of Williams' first major recruits to College Park. Booth led the Terrapins to four NCAA Tournaments, including a pair of Sweet Sixteen appearances, helping Maryland begin its streak of 11 consecutive NCAA berths in 1994.
In his senior season at Maryland, Booth led the Terrapins in scoring (19.5 ppg), rebounding (7.9 rpg) and steals (2.0 spg) and is still Maryland's all-time leader in free throws made (576). Booth finished his impressive career at Maryland among the program's all-time leaders in scoring (9th, 1,776 points), rebounding (6th, 916 points), steals (5th, 193) and he is one of 15 players to have his jersey honored above the Terrapins' home court at Comcast Center
Booth earned All-Atlantic Coast Conference honors four times at Maryland, garnering honorable mention as a freshman and sophomore before receiving second-team honors as a junior and first-team laurels in his final season, 1996-1997.
He was a member of the Associated Press All-America Third Team following his senior season. Booth played alongside the likes of Joe Smith, Rodney Elliott and Johnny Rhodes in his four seasons as a Terrapin.
Booth's teams appeared in two NCAA Sweet Sixteens and finished his sophomore season as ACC regular season co-champions and ranked No. 10 in the country in the final AP poll. That year (1994-95), the Terrapins compiled a 26-8 record, including a perfect 16-0 record at Cole Field House. Booth finished his Maryland career with averages of 14.1 points per game and 7.3 rebounds.
After completing his career at Maryland, Booth was a first-round draft pick (28th overall) in 1997 by the NBA's Chicago Bulls. He was a member of the Michael Jordan-led Bulls team that won the 1998 NBA Championship.
Booth continued his basketball career as a coach, earning his bachelor of arts in criminology and criminal justice degree from Maryland in 2003. He became an assistant at Maryland in 2004 and helped guide the Terrapins to no fewer than 19 wins in his seven seasons on Williams' bench.
During his time at Maryland, the team reached three NCAA Tournaments and compiled an overall record of 146-87 (.627). The 2009-2010 version of the Terrapins went 13-3 in ACC action and tied for the conference regular-season title.

Each Catholic School should require all Parents to read the "Catechism of the Catholic Church, Second Edition" in its entirety prior to School Administration allowing their children to attend the School.
Perhaps they forgot that it is a MORTAL sin to miss Mass on Sunday's and Holy Day's of obligation. - This is what the Priest needs to remind them from the Pulpit.
And then of course remind them when Confessions are heard.
The Priest may need to be reminded that he will be held accountable for what he does and does not do.
"Let us preach Jesus Christ with all the energy of our lives. And let us support each other — whatever the cost — so that when we make our accounting to the Lord, we will be numbered among the faithful and courageous, and not the cowardly or the evasive, or those who compromised until there was nothing left of their convictions; or those who were silent when they should have spoken the right word at the right time. Thank you. And God bless all of you." - Archbishop Chaput

The annual tournament, held during Super Bowl week, features the NFL's top Madden video game players. Unfortunately, Winfield and Springs were nor part of the main tournament. Winfield tried to get into the regular eight-player, single elimination tournament, but EA Sports determined he wasn't a big enough name among players such as Green Bay running back Ahman Green, Vikings quarterback Daunte Culpepper, Bears running back Anthony Thomas, Lions quarterback Joey Harrington, Colts defensive end Dwight Freeney and Saints cornerback Sammy Knight.
So the corner was part of the sideshow, beating Springs, Saints wide receiver Nate Turner and then surprisingly losing to some unidentified individual.
In the main event, Freeney beat Knight for the title. Knight has lost in the final the last two years. Former Redskins and Bucs, and current Lions receiver Jacquez Green, was two-time champion, but he wasn't available to defend his title.
Jeremy Shockey, Jerry Rice, Marshall Faulk and Terrell Owens were on hand watching the festivities. Carmen Electra was supposed to be there, but didn't show up. The good news was that Lance and Joey from N'Sync did.
Anyway, getting back to Winfield, the major question, of course, is why he didn't play as the Bills.
"Well, the Bills are OK, but Philadelphia is much better," he said, while sipping on Grey Goose vodka and cranberry on ice. "I like their offense and their defense. I'm unstoppable in this game."
Broncos tight end Shannon Sharpe emceed the event and was also unstoppable - unstoppable at calling Winfield, "Antonio Winfield," at least three times over the PA. He never corrected himself, and when it was pointed out to Winfield that Sharpe should learn his name, the Bills corner said, "Yeah, I know."
It didn't really bother him much.
Winfield and Springs played at Ohio State together. Springs is older than Winfield by a few years. Each put a few hundred dollar bills on the line, but Winfield, being a gentleman, gave the money back to Springs after the slaughter was mercifully over.

Some paradoxes, errors, and resolutions concerning the spectral optimization of human vision67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19170View Description Hide Description
The peak brightness of the solar spectrum is in the green when plotted in wavelength units. It peaks in the near-infrared when plotted in frequency units. Therefore the oft-quoted notion that evolution led to an optimized eye whose sensitivity peaks where there is most available sunlight is misleading and erroneous. The confusion arises when density distribution functions like the spectral radiance are compared with ordinary functions like the sensitivity of the eye. Spectral radiance functions, excepting very narrow ones, can change peak positions greatly when transformed from wavelength to frequency units, but sensitivity functions do not. Expressing the spectral radiance in terms of photons per second, rather than power, also causes a change in the shape and peak of the distribution, even keeping the choice of bandwidth units fixed. The confusion arising from comparing simple functions to distribution functions occurs in many parts of the scientific and engineering literature aside from vision, and some examples are given. The eye does not appear to be optimized for detection of the available sunlight, including the surprisingly large amount of infrared radiation in the environment. The color sensitivity of the eye is discussed in terms of the spectral properties and the photo and chemical stability of available biological materials. It is likely that we are viewing the world with a souvenir of the human evolutionary voyage.
Understanding the penetration of electromagnetic velocity fields into conductors67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19171View Description Hide Description
The electromagnetic fields due to a point charge can be broken into velocity fields and acceleration fields. The acceleration fields give rise to electromagnetic waves whose penetration into ohmic conductors is described by exponential damping with a characteristic skin depth. The velocity fields allow a steady-current limit where the magnetic field penetrates even a good conductor. Here we note the contrasts between velocity fields and wave fields in their interactions with conductors. We derive a new time-integral invariant of the magnetic field in an ohmic conductor. Finally we note the disparate analyses in the literature and suggest the following summary regarding the penetration of the electromagnetic fields of a point charge moving parallel to a conducting surface. (1) The falloff of the electromagnetic fields is algebraic, not exponential, and cannot be characterized by a skin depth. (2) In the limit of low velocity, the magnetic field penetration is independent of the conductivity of the material. (3) In general the penetration of the electromagnetic fields depends upon the velocity of the particle and becomes vanishingly small for a perfect conductor. (4) The time integral of the magnetic field at a fixed spatial point inside (or outside) an ohmic conductor is independent of the conductivity of the material; thus as the conductivity of the material becomes larger and the magnetic field inside becomes smaller, the time of penetration becomes longer. The penetration of time-dependent velocity fields into conductors has become of interest largely in connection with the Aharonov–Bohm effect. It is curious that the classical explanation for the Aharonov–Bohm effect depends upon the time integral of the magnetic field, which is independent of the conductivity of any ohmic shielding material.
From Maupertuis to Schrödinger. Quantization of classical variational principles67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19172View Description Hide Description
In his first paper on wave mechanics, Schrödinger presented a heuristic argument which led from the Hamilton–Jacobi equation through the quantum variational principle to his famous wave equation. In his second paper, Schrödinger withdrew this heuristic argument as "incomprehensible." We show by using a recently generalized form of Maupertuis' principle that Schrödinger's original heuristic argument can be made more logical. Aside from pedagogical interest, this path is useful as a method of quantization of general mechanical systems.
An accurate measurement of gusing falling balls67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19173View Description Hide Description
We describe an experiment to determine the acceleration due to gravity, g, with an accuracy of about 1 part in The experiment was designed to expose students to critical thinking in collecting, selecting, and analyzing data, and interpreting the results.
Motion of a wave packet in the Klein paradox67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19174View Description Hide Description
Computer simulations for the scattering of a relativistic wave packet by a step potential are performed. Under the condition of the Klein paradox, where the height of the potential barrier becomes supercritical, the scattering induces the creation of electron–positron pairs. The "pair creation" is demonstrated in the present simulation by making use of the hole theory.
A spin network primer67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19175View Description Hide Description
Spin networks, essentially labeled graphs, are "good quantum numbers" for the quantum theory of geometry. These structures encompass a diverse range of techniques which may be used in the quantum mechanics of finite dimensional systems, gauge theory, and knot theory. Though accessible to undergraduates, spin network techniques are buried in more complicated formulations. In this paper a diagrammatic method, simple but rich, is introduced through an association of matrices with diagrams. This spin network diagrammatic method offers new perspectives on the quantum mechanics of angular momentum,group theory,knot theory, and even quantum geometry. Examples in each of these areas are discussed.
Experiments with electrical resistive networks67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19176View Description Hide Description
Theoretical problems involving equivalent resistances of large or infinite networks of resistors have received substantial attention. We consider two actual networks. In the first, the resistance is measured across one end of a ladder whose number of loops is incremented until the precision of the multimeter is exceeded. In the second, resistances are measured across nodes near the center of a 12 by 12 square grid of resistors. These experiments are useful in the introductory physics laboratory as interesting examples of equivalent resistance, and can be added to a standard Ohm's law experiment. The square grid apparatus also can be employed for lecture demonstrations. In addition, this apparatus offers approximate experimental confirmation of complicated theoretical calculations for the equivalent resistance between two nonadjacent nodes of an infinite square grid. These experimental results are verified numerically.
Relationship of the commutation rules to classical-like representations of quantum angular momenta addition67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19177View Description Hide Description
We perform an analysis of a graphical representation for the addition of two angular momenta, focusing our attention on the angle δ between the xy components of two angular momenta. Then we propose a new complete set of commuting observables, which differ from the usual sets that are connected by the Clebsch–Gordan coefficients. This set shows that the angle δ can be a well-defined variable in quantum mechanics. An empirical analysis of the graphical representations of the angular momenta relations, which may include the angle δ, followed by quantum mechanical considerations, leads to the vanishing of certain quantum angular momentum commutators for specific states. Therefore, although the commutators are not null in general, the quantum addition of angular momenta may be represented using classical-like diagrams.
A simple calculation of the rate of emission of energy and of linear and angular momentum by a point charge in arbitrary motion67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19178View Description Hide Description
We calculate directly the rates of emission of energy and linear momentum by a point charge in arbitrary motion using mathematical results that render the calculation of solid-angle integrals very simple. We show that the results of these explicit calculations agree with those based on covariance, illustrating how deeply special relativity is rooted in classical electrodynamics. Then, we use these covariance arguments to calculate the emission of angular momentum, which is a new result. We also indicate how this calculation can be done in the direct, but much longer, way.
Measuring the interaction force between a high temperature superconductor and a permanent magnet67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19160View Description Hide Description
Repulsive and attractive forces are both possible between a superconducting sample and a permanent magnet, and they can give rise to magnetic levitation or free-suspension phenomena, respectively. We show experiments to quantify this magnetic interaction, which represents a promising field with regard to short-term technological applications of high temperature superconductors. The measuring technique employs an electronic balance and a rare-earth magnet that induces a magnetic moment in a melt-texturedsuperconductor immersed in liquid nitrogen. The simple design of the experiments allows a fast and easy implementation in the advanced physics laboratory with a minimum cost. Actual levitation and suspension demonstrations can be done simultaneously as a help to interpret magnetic force measurements.
Relativistic contraction of an accelerated rod67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19161View Description Hide Description
The relativistic motion of an arbitrary point of an accelerated rigid rod is discussed for the case when velocity and acceleration are directed along the rod's length. The discussion includes the case of a time-dependent force applied to a single point, as well as a time-independent force arbitrarily distributed along the rod. The time dependence of the rod's relativistic length depends on the application point of the force, but after the termination of acceleration the final velocity and length do not depend on it. An observer on a uniformly accelerated rod feels an inertial force which decreases in the direction of acceleration. The influence of nonrigidity of realistic rods on our results is qualitatively discussed.
Diffraction by disordered gratings and the Debye–Waller effect67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19162View Description Hide Description
We analyze the effect of disorder in a slit array upon the resulting laser diffraction pattern. This problem is analogous to the Debye–Waller effect, which applies to x-ray scattering by crystals, where disorder is due to uncorrelated thermal vibrations. We have made quantitative measurements using equipment available at our undergraduate laboratory. The measurements were analyzed with the aid of phasor diagrams.
Free fall and angular momentum67(1999); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.19163View Description Hide Description
The problem of free fall (rising or falling) of an object near the surface of the rotating earth is revisited. Expressions for the eastward and westward deflections of the object, which are normally explained by Coriolis force, are derived directly from conservation of angular momentum of the object with respect to the center of the earth. Launching conditions for zero lateral (east–west) deflections are also discussed. The treatment is simple enough, both conceptually and mathematically, to be presented in an introductory physics course.

BMI View : In line with our view, Japanese auto sales enjoyed spectacular growth in Q114, rising 20.7% y-o-y. However, this was due to consumers bringing forward their purchases to beat the increase in sales tax on April 1 2014, and we expect the tax hike to pressure sales for the rest of the year.
According to the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA), Japanese auto sales rose 17.4% year-on-year (y-o-y) in March 2014, to 783,389 units. This was the seventh consecutive month of y-o-y growth and the best monthly sales figure in at least two years. March's performance brought total vehicle sales in Q114 to 1,844,464 units, an increase of 20.7% y-o-y.
While undoubtedly spectacular, we do not expect these phenomenal sales growth rates to be sustained for the rest of the year. The hike in the national consumption tax, which took place on April 1 2014, resulted in consumers bringing forward their auto purchases to avoid paying higher taxes. Indeed, the surge in March sales was aided by last-minute consumer buying sprees.
|Calm Before The Storm
|Japan - Domestic Auto Sales, Units (LHS); % chg y-o-y (RHS)
We have held the view since 2013 that we expect the recently initiated consumption tax hike to hurt sales for the latter part of the year ( see 'Consumption Tax Increase Poses Risk To Sales', January 10). Having already taken some demand from the future, the higher sales tax will also have the effect of hurting consumer sentiment, discouraging purchases for some buyers and further hurting demand.
Automakers themselves are also gearing up for a contraction in demand following the increase in the consumption tax. Toyota Motor, the country's largest carmaker, is set to reduce its daily output by 15% y-o-y in April, to about 12,200 vehicles.
Another unfavourable development is the dim business outlook among corporates. The latest Bank of Japan Tankan survey for Q114 found that firms expect conditions to worsen more than they did during the previous consumption tax hike in 1997. This does not bode well for job creation or economic growth in subsequent quarters.
Against such a backdrop, it will not be surprising to see a precipitious decline in monthly vehicle sales in the near term as the market struggles to absorb the economic fallout from the sales tax increase. This will then negate the strong y-o-y sales growth in Q114. As such, we are happy to maintain our full-year total vehicle sales forecast of 5,418,000 units, an increase of merely 0.8%.

Historical Traveler Reviews La Haut Plantation Soufričre
Unbeatable panorama
My family of 4, including 2 boys ages 16 and 6, spent the week of March 20-27, 2005, at this establishment. We rented the 3 bdr house just up the hill from the main guest house (actually, quite a hike..but we needed it after those big breakfasts they fed us). We had our own plunge pool and some of the best views of Soufriere Bay and the twin Pitons that could be found anywhere. And I'm not exaggerating! Stephanie was a most kind and accomodating hostess. She and her husband Joe invited us to come swim in their own private pool (they're putting the finishing touches on their private residence which is just a short walk from the guesthouse and restaurant), took care of some Internet issues for us, and kept us well fed and well cared for. They will arrange taxi service as needed, provide help when requested, or leave you to your privacy as you wish. La Haut has it's own nice pool for guests with more of those beautiful views. The bougainvilleas were in bloom at the time and the hummingbirds were everywhere. There are cows, goats, donkeys, and even a puppy for the kids to investigate. Soufriere itself is quintessentially Carribbean...it doesn't seem commercialized at all. My husband loved it there so much we pretty much left him at the house and the kids and I took the shuttle service provided by La Haut (2-3 times a day) to go snorkeling, boating, grocery shopping, or whatever. There are several large resorts hidden in the area which have great beaches to snorkel from. Some of the resorts, including La Haut, provide decent food. You will certainly NOT go hungry. We would love to return here. A great place if you value your privacy, breathtaking views, creature comforts, and a good value. Not a mega-resort, by any means. Just a delightful bed & breakfast inn.
Absolutely Fabulous
We have just returned from this idyllic location of La Haut Plantation. It was all we could have hoped it would be - be it a little rustic - but that was the charm of the place. We were there for 10 days and everyone we met there thought the place was a fantastic retreat away from it all. The owners Stephanie who is Canadian and Jo her husband who is St. Lucian were lovely together with all the staff there. We could not have chose a better place to spend our New Year vacation. The room was lovely and spacious and the balacony was very large indeed with lovely comfortable cane furniture, which we re-arranged to view the Pitons and the ocean cruisers going by. The view of these mountains and the ocean were the highlight of our holiday and if you are going to book a room for the little extra I would recommend the upstairs Premium Rooms with their V.I.P. Package which includes half board and transfers to and from the airport with their resident driver Christopher Leon who will do all he can to help with tours. The breakfast with it's crispy bacon and soft poached eggs were wonderful and the lobster, jumbo prawns and local fish was lovely - in fact all the food was very good indeed.
If you wish to sample the location of La Ladara Hotel and its wonderful view, take up the Manager's Cocktail Party each Monday which is well worth the Ł25.00 each for the cocktails, crapes and all you can eat from their wonderful buffet.
I would say that we hired a car for 6 days. The roads are not good and very full of bends and very steep. Alot is done by the water taxis who will drop you off at various locations and pick you up again. If you go to the Rain Forest I would recommend you book through Christopher as we have travelled many roads in the world but the one to the forest was not good at all and even my husband said it was the worst he had ever been on.
The owners have also built a fabulous villa on the edge of the cliffs down from La Haut which will be their home plus a wedding venue this year I believe. It has an infinity swimming pool which puts you in the ocean thousands of feet up, which is out of this world. This can be used by guests Monday to Friday.
If you do choose this location I hope you enjoy it as much as we did plus all the other guests we met there.
A wonderful location
Just returned from a stay at La Haut and have to say that the location of this hotel is quite stunning. The view from our room of the pitons, sea and the sulphur springs was simply amazing.
The hotel itself is also highly recommended, its very small and private. The pool and gardens are lovely and its very very peaceful. The deluxe room we stayed in was very big and spacious with a great balcony. The only slight disappointment was the bathroom which was functional, but in my opinion in need of refurbishment (cracked tiles and a little too grubby).
The restaurant is very good, however I also highly recommend 'The Mango' restaurant which is the other side of the valley (about 10 mins away by car).
The staff are friendly and very efficient. All in all a lovely place and I would definitely consider returning there in the future.
Outstanding hospitality, food and views.
La Haut offered us outstanding hospitality and food. The vista from our room and restaurant is the best on the island, with view of both Pitons and Caribbean sea beyond. Our room was clean, spacious, and well designed and decorated. Next time we stay for two weeks, not one! The value was excellent and we enjoyed our stay more than at Sandles. It was more private, quite and the food was better.
Good to see this place given the plaudits it deserves!!
I only ate here - but twice! - and was shown around the rooms by the staff as I liked it so much. I would definitely go back there to stay. The food is really great, someone cares a great deal about what they prepare, they even made a non-alcoholic pina colada for my daughter.
The views are to die for, and the gardens a delight.
I'm an ex restaurant and holiday accomodation owner, so my demands are great - I endorse everyone else's recommendations.
A wonderful honeymoon
For our honeymmon, we spent 8 days and 7 nights at La Haut Plantation in Soufriere. We loved it. The hotel was exactly what we were looking for - quiet, secluded, warm, clean, friendly and romamtic. We stayed in one of the upstairs "premium" rooms. The room was huge! The staff had arranged fresh flowers all over the room, including the bathroom. The mosquito net worked as advertised, although truth be told, there weren't that many bugs around. Nightime temperatures were pleasant enogh for us to turn the fan off. The staff kept the room spotless. We walked around the wood floors barefoot and not once felt a pebble or splinter.
The view from La Haut was fabulous. Standing on our room's balcony, we were able to see the 2 Pitons, the smoke rising from the sulphur pits, and of course, the beatiful blue ocean. Breakfast was always served fresh, most days with the staff taking our order when we were ready. We did enjoy a breakfast buffet on one day.
The best assets of La Haut are the staff, and the seclusion. If you're looking for an action filled place to stay, La Haut is not for you. If you want some privacy, personal attention, and knowlegable and friendly staff, La Haut will be perfect. Stephanie, the owner, knows the island's in and outs and was glad to fill us in on anything we wanted to know - from the best beaches, to the best driver (definitely recommend her preferred driver, Christopher Leon). And the staff at La Haut were brilliant at doing all the little things that make for a memorable stay.
I also recommend getting the La Haut package that includes the meal plan. You'll be hard pressed to find a better meal on the island. And take advantage of the La Haut "library". It's small, but guests have left a nice collection of books and magazines that make for good reading on a relaxing afternoon.
So again, if you're looking for a crowd, or expect to be entertained by dancing bands every night of the week, La Haut is probably not for you. If you want to be treated like a well known family guest, enjoy a fresh meal every day, and have a private pool all to yourself, then La Haut will not dissapoint you. We took Leon's taxi into town for a couple of excursions, and Stephanie makes daily runs to town and the beaches, so you'll have plenty to keep you busy. Enjoy.
La Haut reaches new heights
La Haut is a true getaway for someone who wants to get away from it all. There is still ample opportunity to take in the sights of St. Lucia with the retreat waiting at the end of a busy day.The beaches, the Botanical Gardens, The rainforest, the sulfur springs and the Pitons all are within easy reach of La Haut and we did it all. Best of all it is possible to retreat, to read, to swim, or walk or just enjoy the hospitality of the place. The food was authentically local, prepared by skilled hands. The hosts at La Haut were accommodating to all our needs. It is truly a destination worth checking out. I will return, of this I am sure.
The Magic of La Haut
This has to be one of the most incredible places we have ever visited and their new disappearing edge pool in the valley is undescribable, swimming in it, iis like you are in heaven. Our best activity, a rum punch with fresh nutmeg, a platter of fish cakes on the restaurant balcony in full view of the Pitons and Caribbean sea. These ladies can really cook and they prepare the most fantastic dishes. Basil pesto, creole sauce, cocoa tea, and good ole apple pie - Wonderful! We were lucky to have full moon and often sat by the pool or on our balcony way into the wee hours of the night watching the stars and fireflies. Being a working plantation the place gets rolling early in the morning which some may find a little disturbing. We are early risers so we did not mind. Anyway, the birds, goats, occassional bray of the donkey, crickets and frogs singing at night is a natural chorus that you soom get attuned to. Their staff make this place special. They are sincere, without being overpowering and we shared many pleasant jokes and laughs! Kudous to Cindy, Shervon and Marcelin. If you love birds, just watching the humming birds is worth the trip in itself. This place maybe small, unsophiticated, but we think it is "magical" and we cannot imagine a visit to St. Lucia would be complete without stopping at La Haut .
Spent Xmas in Paradise!
Every Canadian dreams of escaping the winter chill. Our dream holiday came true this past Xmas with a 1-week stay at La Haut!!! Small but cozy, this family-run inn had friendly staff & probably the best view on the island. The owner, Stephanie, (ironically, also a Canadian who had wisely escaped to this tropical island!) was gracious & attentive - helping us arrnage a 1-day boat trip & giving us rides to/from the nearby beach. She's a great chef also, as our expanded waistlines prove! ;-)
Undoubtedly, the best features of La Huat are its coastal location (on a hill overlooking the sea, mountains & the town of Soufriere), its charm & its great value for money. Especially liked the pool & the intimacy of the guesthouse; we met some wonderful people from Europe & US, but also had our own 'space' at this quiet B&B. Would definitely go back!!!
Magic of La Haut
La Haut Is truly magic! I was a little apprehensive about going to a small hotel, but the pictures were wonderful, although they don't do the place justice! What views! Clouds barrelling over the mountains, lie on yur back in the pool with the Pitons and palm trees in the background, amazing! As for the country life, idyllic. Birds, donkeys, goats ... Wonderful friendly Staff, tasty food also good for you. Fishcakes, basil pesto, pumpkin chips - an absolute MUST. This place is a hidden gem and I hope it stays that way. Pure Magic!

The carvings looked like those Russian petrushka dolls that fit inside one another, which I found quite interesting. I wondered out loud what they were modelled on. Maybe a swaddled baby?

We all agree that the 1980s was the decade in which WWE was put on the map by Vince McMahon and Hulk Hogan, with the help of many others in their shadow.
In the 1990s, the company was riding a roller-coaster, with many highs and lows.
There were many crucial historic moments. Many events contributed to the important transition between the explosion of the '80s and the permanent establishment of the company in the 2000s.
There were also many flops and WWE even reached such a low level that they were on the edge of bankruptcy at some point. But they learned from their mistakes and re-emerged stronger than ever with the Attitude Era.
So, with no more introduction, let's see what made the 1990s such an important decade in WWE history.

The G2 finally gives LG a device that can compete with the best.
- Jeffrey Van Camp , Digital Trends
This is a powerful phone with a myriad of simple, but useful new features. Audiophiles and spec junkies should flock to it...
Reviews summary
What's good
- Beautiful display
- Great camera
- 1080p video at 60 frames per second
- Plenty of power to age well
What's bad
- No microSD card
- Non-removable battery
- Materials feel cheap
- Weak loudspeaker
Much like it's predecessor, the LG Optimus G, the G2 pushes the specs of Android devices to the max. With a 2.3-gigahertz quad-core processor, 5.2-inch 1080p display, 13-megapixel camera and 2GB of RAM, the phone is ready for anything you might throw at it. Coupled this power with a sleek design and the phone is certainly near the top of the pack for next-gen smartphones. GSMArena described the phone best as a "beautiful monster."
Packing all of these features into a light, compact smartphone required LG to break the mold when it comes to case design. To keep the phone as thin as possible, the power and volume buttons were placed on the back of the phone. While this takes a little time to get used to, it works quite well. A combination of long presses and short presses provide a variety of shortcuts to phone features. Hubert Nguyen of Ubergizmo said, "It is not as strange as it may appear. Unlike most smartphones today, it is a completely ambidextrous system so lefties will be happy."
Another useful feature is Knockon. Tap the screen twice and the phone wakes up. Speaking of screens, the 1080p IPS LCD display is stunning and does not suffer from the outdoor visibility issues of many of its AMOLED counterparts.
Unfortunately, there are a few concerns to keep in mind about the G2. Though the curves and case design of the phone are pretty, the phone has a cheap, plastic feel when handled. The high-gloss case and screen are prone to fingerprints and smudges as well. While the 3,000-mAh battery offers respectable battery life, it is not removable. For the power users out there, this means carrying a phone charger with you and hunting for charging ports.
Brian Klug of Anandtech summed up the G2 well when he said, "It's built on a great platform, with great battery life and includes a number of design decisions that show honest to goodness innovative thinking on LG's part."
Specs summary
The LG G2's screen is 5.2 inches with 1080 x 1920 pixels resolution.
There is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 Quad core 2.26 GHz processor (CPU).
The phone runs on the Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean (Update Available: 5.0.2 Lollipop) operating system (OS).
Internal memory is 16/32 GB. No external card slot is available for expansion.
The phone is powered by a Lithium Polymer (Li-Pol), 3000 mAh battery. LG's performance ratings are 29 days standby time, 1100 minutes (2G), 1501 minutes (3G), 682 minutes Wi-Fi surfing.

Wastewater treatment system at Jemez Pueblo provides interim solution at minimal cost
By Simon McCormack
For residents of Jemez Pueblo, solar power may have saved the day.
On July 5, the Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department (EMNRD) and the New Mexico Association of Energy Engineers (NMAEE) along with Jemez Pueblo celebrated the success of a solar-powered wastewater treatment system. The NMAEE awarded Jemez Pueblo Gov. James Roger Madalena with the Association's "Environmental Project of the Year" award for the system, which has helped the pueblo decrease the smell given off by nearby wastewater lagoons while also eliminating the immediate risk of overflow from the lagoons into the Jemez River.

Odds & Ends
By Devin D. O'Leary
Dateline: Germany--A 61-year-old man, on trial for theft, didn't do his case much good by stealing the judge's keys during a court hearing. Police in the central town of Coburg said that while facing the bench, the man pocketed a bunch of keys belonging to the judge, who did not notice until he had left the room. When confronted by court officials in the bathroom, the man told them he had been shocked to discover the keys in his pocket. "He told them he realized how suspicious his story would sound and that he had therefore hidden the keys under a toilet brush," said police spokesman Bernhard Schmitt. "He'd been stealing all his life so it was probably just an intuitive act." The man wrote out a confession, but the initial trial had to be temporarily suspended on legal grounds in case the judge--who had just been robbed by the defendent--showed bias in the case.
