Trump Has Epic Meltdown After Obama Wins, Calls for 'Revolution'
Posted on Nov 6, 2012
Real estate mogul and birther conspiracy theorist Donald Trump totally lost in on Twitter after major news media outlets projected that President Obama won re-election, ranting to his followers that "We should march on Washington and stop this travesty" and "Lets fight like hell and stop this great and disgusting injustice!" Angry white man, indeed.

The New York Yankees have a long history of being one of the most elite teams, not just in baseball, but in all of professional sports.
Over the years, there have been a fair share of heartbreaking moments in Yankees history, just like any other team.
With all of the twists and turns, ups and downs, gut-wrenching and breathtaking moments; Yankee fans have experienced quite a roller-coaster ride over the years.
The Yankees have had many exciting blowout wins, and they've had many come-from-behind wins, all due to strong, solid, clutch hitting.
Every Yankee generation has had unforgettable moments when everyone held their breath while a man with a New York logo stepped up to the plate and delivered game-changing performances.
Take a look at 25 of the biggest clutch hits in the history of the Yankees.
Watching old videos of some of these moments, even from decades ago, still tingles my spine.
They are all significant in their own way and are in no particular order.

KPFT is seeking to grow this schedule with new local programming.
In addition to its FM grid, KPFT hosts a schedule of simultaneous programming streaming via web and HD radio, and accessible via apps like TuneIn Radio. It is considered FM content by the FCC, and must adhere to the same language, commercialism and station rules as our terrestrial schedule. New programming is considered here.
Interested? Contact the Program Director with a bit about your idea with the following information:
Potential hosts are expected to sign off on station policies (covering FCC rules, etc.) before the first show and to be present for the show every week.
KPFT is interested in Spanish-language programming as well as programming from KPFT's diverse communities.
Want to submit your music to KPFT for airplay consideration? Here's how to do it:
First, listen to KPFT and check out our program schedule and playlists. Our hosts have freedom to choose music for their shows, and you'll get a better idea of the diverse kinds of artists that get airplay here.
If you think your music is a fit, send us a CD for the Music Library.
KPFT maintains a music CD library for its program hosts to consider for airplay. New music is added to the New Releases section in the library on an ongoing basis.
CDs added to the music library are available for programmers to consider for their shows, but airplay is not guaranteed. Send new music submissions to:
KPFT Music Library
419 Lovett Blvd.
Houston, TX 77006
Currently, the KPFT music library does not accept digital submissions.
In addition to the initial music library copy, if you would like to send extra music CDs as personal copies for program hosts, send separate packages addressed to the attention of the programs in care of the station address above. Again, airplay is not guaranteed. For further assistance, email or call 713-526-4000.
The KPFT playlists archive reflects airplay for music programs as it occurs. Airplay reporting takes place after the fact for applicable formats.
Artists seeking to have their upcoming live music performances at Houston area venues posted on the Weekly Concert Calendar should email the performance information (artist/band name, name of venue, and date of live music performance at venue) to blueshound(at)kpft.org. The weekly deadline is Thursday at 5 p.m.
To request an on-air interview and/or live music performance, contact the programs' hosts directly via email. On-air guest scheduling is done by the individual program hosts. Some programs that regularly feature guests are booked months in advance. Due to facility restrictions, the KPFT chief engineer has requested that on-air live music performances be acoustic only.
To provide CDs to be used as membership incentives (thank-you gifts for listener donations during KPFT membership drives), contact the Membership Department at 713-526-4000, x314.
Airing at 6 PM on dates Texas is scheduled to execute an inmate, Execution Watch focuses on matters of the death penalty.
During fundraising campaigns, Execution Watch airs on KPFT's HD3 channel.

The NFL season is starting to take shape. There are a lot of surprise teams so far and a lot of disappointing teams.
The Cowboys, Packers, 49ers and Chargers are not in first place in their division like many expected.
The Chiefs, Bears, Texans and Giants lead their current divisions, which is a surprise to many people.
As the season moves on it is harder to pick a pretender to beat a contender, but these losses still happen.
Let's take a look at five games that end with the better team losing in week seven.

Justin Bieber and Sofia Richie Broke Up, and It's Fine
Because love is a fickle beast, Justin Bieber and Sofia Richie have parted ways with the intention of seeing other people.
Because love is a fickle beast, Justin Bieber and Sofia Richie have parted ways with the intention of seeing other people.
All-powerful television personality Ryan Seacrest and Victoria's Secret model Adriana Lima are dating now "after connecting in Rio de Janeiro during the 2016 Olympics," according to E! News—a reliable source given the subject.
In today's Tweet Beat, Ryan Seacrest needs a hand, Venus Williams looks back and somebody gave Kat Dennings some bad advice.
In today's Tweet Beat, Gabrielle Union is not pregnant, Ryan Seacrest lives a charmed life and Gwent Stefani Gwen Stefanis.
In today's Tweet Beat, Ryan Seacrest's life is doing a thing, Gwen Stefani is still flaunting that relationship and Chaka Khan remembers Prince.
Ryan Seacrest will serve as executive producer on Squad Goals, a multi-camera hybrid sitcom for 20-somethings currently in development at CBS, because the world has apparently run out of stories to tell.
Sunday night's bafflingly star-studded iHeartRadio Music Awards took a cue from The Golden Globes by seating major stars next to each other at large, circular tables and forcing them to engage in conversations with the cameras rolling. Justin Timberlake, Taylor Swift, and Ryan Seacrest photograph well, but what do…
Word is there's a very polite, muffled "revolt" of sorts building amongst some Hollywood actresses who are beginning to strain against the waves of starkly gendered banality long-endured by women on the red carpet. Over at Gawker, Hamilton Nolan questioned the prevailing strategy of Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer…
Ryan Seacrest caught up with Lena Dunham on the Golden Globes red carpet tonight and she briefly mentioned having to tune out all the sociopaths on Twitter. Like a sane human being, she now never checks it. Except sometimes.
There's no way to sugarcoat it: Fergie's video for "LA Love" is a hot-ass mess.
Caption this: Ryan Seacrest (L) attends Macy's Great Tree Lighting with Ryan Seacrest at Macy's at State Street on November 8, 2014 in Chicago, Illinois.
FOX is pulling prank-dating show I Wanna Marry Harry from its lineup, effective immediately.
Last night Fox premiered summer reality show I Wanna Marry Harry, in which twelve American women are flown to a castle in the UK to vie for the attention of a Prince Harry lookalike. The show could also be called OMG, Cringe.
There's so much about this news that doesn't make sense but here you go: Fox will soon be airing the reality TV show I Wanna Marry "Harry", which stars 12 ordinary American women who thought that they actually had a chance of being in a consensual relationship with Prince Henry of Wales.
At 6:25 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time, a magnitude 4.4 earthquake rattled the Los Angeles area. The first thing a lot of Hollywood stars did was post to Twitter.
If Iggy Azalea, Kreayshawn and this entire list aren't top of mind, Ryan Seacrest, arbiter of all things pop music and Kardashian, is reportedly producing a new show about white female rappers for VH1. If you're thinking, "Hey, wasn't that already a thing?" you are right.
Unsolicited Uterus Update: Kerry Washington and her husband Nnamdi Asomugha are expecting their first child, says someone who is neither Kerry Washington nor Kerry Washington's rep.
Here's what the stars were doing this week as they played paparazzi and turned the camera on themselves. Celebrity Instagrams (and maybe a Vine or two), presented without comment. Enjoy.
In today's Tweet Beat, Ryan Seacrest continues to wow us with his musings, Lena Dunham's life is just so easy to relate to, and Twitter responds to Bieber-mop-bucket-pee-gate.
The book that Alicia Silverstone read in the 9th grade that said "'Tis a far, far better thing doing stuff for other people" clearly had an effect on her; she's long been a vegan PETA supporter, and now she's adding breastfeeding advocacy to her repertoire.

Skip to comments.Arnold Schwarzenegger: Ronald Reagan My hero, and eternal light for the world
Posted on 06/11/2004 9:51:01 PM PDT by quidnunc
Arnold Schwarzenegger pens a moving tribute to Ronald Reagan.
To Read This Article Click Here
"President Reagan symbolized to me what America represented hope, opportunity, freedom. He made us remember that the United States stood for something great and noble. Once again, it was alright to stand tall and believe in this country, and in ourselves."
Beautiful. Thanks for posting it.
Turning into an Arnold-bashing thread in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
Let's hope not. (HINT!)
Thanks for posting this! Governor Arnold is one of my favorites!
What a wonderful essay he wrote! Thanks for posting that.
No Arnold bashing so far....(and certainly there'll be none from me!)
Arnold...the new spokesperson for the Kennedys!
Shhh! Don't tell sKerry.
I am not bashing him, I'm desperately puzzled how this man can call himself a proud American and do this disgusting thing to his fellow Californians! What the hell is the matter with the man? Why does he have this blind spot? It's insane!!!
I sincerely wish you strong supporters would politely, but strongly ask him to re-think this dastardly deed before our deeds become worthless and further restricted in a Socialist's Paradise. I'm not trying to insult, I'm pleading for help!!!
Arnold genuinely reveres Reagan and donated a bust of the Gipper to the Reagan Library. So far there have been no tax increases, there's a limit on government spending in the state constitution, and workers' comp reform. Not bad for a first year in office. I'll take our Governor over his predecessor any day.
So far, the Governator has given me no reason to regret my vote. This short essay underscores that.
...and it's blastoff!!!
Now, it's officially an Arnold-bashing thread!!!
I laugh when you are accused of sowing dissension here by posting positive articles highlighting Governor Schwarzenegger's impressive accomplishments. There's some bitterness left over from the October election, I'm guessing. ;^)
Arnold learned a lot from Reagan.
Ronald Reagan, in his own words, from his autobiography:
"When I began entering into the give and take of legislative bargaining in Sacramento, a lot of the most radical conservatives who had supported me during the election didn't like it.
"Compromise" was a dirty word to them and they wouldn't face the fact that we couldn't get all of what we wanted today. They wanted all or nothing and they wanted it all at once. If you don't get it all, some said, don't take anything.
"I'd learned while negotiating union contracts that you seldom got everything you asked for. And I agreed with FDR, who said in 1933: 'I have no expectations of making a hit every time I come to bat. What I seek is the highest possible batting average.'
"If you got seventy-five or eighty percent of what you were asking for, I say, you take it and fight for the rest later, and that's what I told these radical conservatives who never got used to it."
Schwarzenegger Pays Tribute to Reagan During Prayer Breakfast
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger paid tribute to former President Ronald Reagan during the state's annual prayer breakfast Wednesday morning.
The event provided a chance for state lawmakers, business leaders and community members to join together in prayer on behalf of California.
Schwarzenegger went on to voice his admiration for Reagan, another actor-turned-governor. "I had many times the chance to meet him and to speak with him, and every time I talked to him he was very inspirational, very encouraging, and very motivational," said Schwarzenegger.
The governor also talked about the philosophical legacy of the former president. "We will miss President Reagan, but we will carry on with the optimism he taught us, and his abiding belief of what America stood for," he said.
In addition to his remarks about Reagan, Schwarzenegger also spoke about the diversity of religions, which he said is a great strength for the country.
I have three siblings raising families in California, so I've been an interested outside observer. I think the Governor has exceeded every expectation his supporters had when they voted for him last October. Keep posting these positive developments here, there are many who appreciate the most important State in our Union returning to its rightful economic glory.
Arnold needs to home to his Church,
and change his stance on abortion.
Once he's done that, he'll be a better person.
Amen. We want smaller government and more personal freedom and the the space to pursue big dreams. Which is what Reagan stood for. Now let's keep on winning The American Dream for The Gipper!!!
Most Californians are pro-choice. Arnold is being a realist. We should focus on reducing abortion and creating a culture of life. Any one who thinks abortion will be outlawed here in the foreseeable future is dreaming.
Politics aside.
Life and "light" go hand in hand.
Arnold needs to come home to his Catholic Church
regarding abortion. He needs it for his own good
and for his soul.
Right now, he's just like democrat Catholics.
Right now let's just have him fix the CA economy and business climate.
That is his role as a governor.
Pragmatism over abortion is Faustian in my view.
I of course know why they do it. Guiliani is just as guilty and for the same reasons you mention.
I am HAPPY with his governorship.
Yeah and no one bashes Rudolph Guiliani for it. Reasonable people can disagree about the best way to foster a culture of life in this country.
The democrats and the media will hit
Rudy with his divorces and his abortion
stance if and when he tries for the presidency.
Right now, they like him... think he's a
GOP maverick of sorts.
It is a slope though...whether slippery or not ....that if the only Pubbie who can get elected statewide must behave as a Dem then our only gain is whatever we get from having a Pubbie around for national elections and reapportionment ...if they have the stones to stand up then.
I'm not accusing Rudy or Arnold of that. I would say Bloomberg is a caver and gives us no edge at all that I'm aware of.
It's a curious trend and frankly often leaves me out. No doubt the right is as strong as it's been in my lifetime but our success has moderated us...particularly on cultural issues which are for me the main reason I am on the right....and still sets the tone for the majority of the right imho.
However for the time being, modrut Pubs beat your average Dem by a long shot but they can hurt ya. (in the Senate particularly)
My fellow Freepers in California - Please keep us posted on Arnold's progress. From a distance, I can say that it looks like he's doing a swell job.
I noticed that he was sitting directly behind Nancy at the funeral service at the library. This ain't by accident. I don't think we've heard the last of the Governor.
One important way to protect unborn children is to help their mothers see how precious they are to all of us. At least I think Governor Schwarzenegger is working on that as hard as he can by stamping out the malaise and talking about how important families are to our future. This is juxtaposed to those who claim that we are overpopulated. I kid you not, a strong contingent of Californian "intellectuals" believe that humans are overwhelming the health of the planet not just by their behaviors but by their sheer numbers. (In other words, you can't fix it without slashing us back...) The Governor is a very different breed from these types of Kalistanians.
Yes, that was how Reagan got so much accomplished. I remember the "true conservatives" bashing him at the time like they do Bush today.
When Arnold and his wife approached the final resting place for Ronald Reagan they blessed themselves.....Arnold made the sign of the cross by touching his head, heart, right shoulder and then his left shoulder. His wife blessed herself left to right. Arnold seems to have decided any way is OK - the motto of the 'new' church.
Yes, you have missed it. Allow me to help in catching you up.

Minus a first base coach, the Cubs named their 2014 coaching staff for new manager Rick Renteria, keeping pitching coach Chris Bosio, bullpen coach Lester Strode, catching and strategy coach Mike Borzello, and staff assistant Franklin Font.
New to the Cubs dugout are bench coach Brandon Hyde, hitting coach Bill Mueller, third base and infield coach Gary Jones, assistant hitting coach Mike Brumley and quality assurance coach Jose Castro.
Hyde only spent one year behind the desk serving as the Cubs director of player development for over a year. The 40-year-old is no stranger to the dugout starting his coaching career back in 2002 at Long Beach State. After serving as a Class A hitting coach in the Marlins system in 2003-04, Hyde spent the next five season as a manager, leading AA Jacksonville to a Southern League title in 2009. He also managed the Mesa Solar Sox in 2009. Hyde has experience as a bench coach, spending a season and a half with Jack McKeon and the Marlins during 2010-11. Hyde played four seasons in the White Sox organization (catcher/first base) after being signed as an undrafted free agent in 1997. He joined the Cubs organization in Dec. of 2011 as the minor league field coordinator. With two years experience in the Cubs' minors, Hyde knows the Cubs' young prospects and will be a familiar face when the youngsters hit the Wrigley clubhouse. Hyde is also familiar with each players strengths and weaknesses, which will be invaluable to Renteria. Hyde replaces Jamie Quirk.
Former American League batting champ Bill Mueller has been named the team's new hitting coach, replacing James Rowson. The 40-year-old almost four months as the Dodgers hitting coach in 2007 after Eddie Murray was hired. He worked in the Dodgers front office from 2006-13 (minus the hitting gig), most of that time as a special assistant to GM Ned Colletti. Mueller was a full-time scout for the Dodgers in 2013. A 15th round pick by the Giants in 1993, the infielder debuted in San Francisco in 1996 and spent five years with Giants, hitting .294/.383/.395 in 145 games in 1998. He was traded to the Cubs for Todd Worrell in Nov. 2000 and the Cubs shipped him back to the bay for Jeff Verpalncke in 2002. With the Cubs, Mueller played 173 games, hitting .277 but had an on-base percentage of .373, his career average. Mueller signed with Boston as a free agent (by some guys named Epstein and Hoyer) and promptly won the batting title hitting .326 with a .398 OBP. He played three season for Boston and finished his career as a Dodger, playing 32 games in 2006 before retting after the season. Even since the new front office was hired, they've been preaching quality at-bats and on-base percentage. Mueller has his work cut out for him as the NorthSiders have finished 28th the past two seasons in on-base percentage, his specialty as a MLB player. He'll also need to improve the plate appearances of Starlin Castro and Anthony Rizzo, who both struggled in 2013.
Gary Jones is no stranger to Jed Hoyer and Jason McLeod as the Cubs' new third base coach/infield coach worked with both in San Diego as the organization's minor league infield coordinator in 2010-11. Jones' held that position for the last seven years after 15 seasons as a manager in the minors for Oakland (8 years), Boston (3 years) and San Diego (4 years). He also spent one year as the A's first base coach in 1998 and served as the Red Sox's coordinator of minor league instruction during Epstein's first year in Boston. Jones was originally signed by the Cubs as a free agent in 1982 and spent four seasons with Chicago and four more with the A's, reaching AAA in 1987. In nearly 900 games playing primarily at second, he hit .283/.437/.370. His best season was in 1986 for AA Huntsville, batting .311/.464/.393 in 130 games with 34 stolen bases. The 53-year-old's minor league development experience adds another voice in the dugout for the rush of young talent heading to Wrigley in the coming years. Jones replaces David Bell.
Former Chicago Cubs Mike Brumley (39 games in 1987) takes over for Rob Deer as the team's assistant hitting coach. The 50-year-old was the Mariners first base coach the last four seasons and spent 1997-2009 with Seattle as a minor league manager, field coordinator and instructor. Brumley was the Red Sox 2nd round pick in 1983 but the Cubs acquired Brumley along with Dennis Eckersley for Bill Buckner in 1984 and then traded away the infielder with Keith Moreland to the Padres for Rich Gossage and Ray Hayward before the 1988 season. He played a career-high 92 games for Detroit in 1989 and also spent time with Seattle (1990), Boston (1991-92), Houston (1993, 1995) and Oakland (1994). Brumley played eight seasons with a lifetime slash of .206/.261/.272 in 295 games. Brumley is another coach that has years of experience working with young players.
The core of the Cubs pitching coach staff will remain together as Chris Bosio, Lester Strode and Mike Borzello are all returning.
Bosio returns for his third season after spending the first two with Dale Sveum. He also had big league coaching experience with a year in Tampa Bay in 2003 and an interim basis with Milwaukee in 2009. Bosio started his coaching career as a special assignment coach for Seattle before getting a job with Lou Pinella in Tampa. He coahed four years at two Wisconsin Colleges (Lawrence University and U of W—Oshkosh) before getting hired by the Reds as a AA pitching coach. He then joined the Brewers organization serving as their pitching coach at the major-league, AAA and AA levels. He also served as an advanced scout for two years. Its been a revolving door on the mound for the Cubs using 31 different arms in 2013 and 30 in 2012. Travis Wood and Jeff Samardzija are the only two starters to complete both seasons under Bosio while relief pitchers James Russell (122 IP) and Blake Parker (52.1 IP) are the top bullpen holdovers.
Strode has spent the past 26 seasons with the Cubs organization, starting his coaching career in 1989 as a pitching coach in the minors. The Cubs bullpen coach for the past seven years, Strode served as the club's minor league pitching coordinator from 1996-2006. The 55-year-old was the Cubs pitching assistant in 1994-95 and was a minor league pitching coach from 1989-1993. Strode was the Royals fourth-round pick in 1980, spending nine seasons in the minors, including five in AAA but never made the majors. He pitched his final 18 minor league games for the Cubs AAA team in Iowa, and has been with the organization ever since.
After spending the past two seasons as the Cubs staff assistant, Borzello has the expanded role of catching and strategy coach. The 43-year-old worked extensively with Wellington Castillo during the 2013 season, one of the few bright spots for the Cubs and showed great development during the season before he was injured. Borzello was drafted by the Cardinals in 1991, playing four season with the Cardinals in 42 minor league career games. He began his coaching career with the Yankees and spent 12 years in the system as a batting practice coach and spent two years operating the radar gun and charting pitches. From 2008-11, he was the bullpen catcher for the Los Angles Dodgers.
Franklin Font returns for his 20th season with the Cubs, the last two at the major league level as a staff assistant. Font spent three seasons as the Cubs minor league infield coordinator. The Venezuelan native managed four seasons in the VSL (2002), DSL (2005-06), and the Cubs Rookie League in 2008. Font played six seasons in the Cubs minors, reaching AA before he retied in 2000. He spent 2001 as a staff assistant for Daytona. A Latin influence with years of minor league experience. You might be seeing a theme here.
Cuban native Jose Castro joins the team as the quality assurance coach. He has spent the past 25 years as a minor league hitting coordinator and hitting coach for Kansas City, Seattle, Florida, San Diego and Montreal organizations. Castro was the Phillies 27th round pick in 1977 out of Jackson High School in Miami. He played 14 seasons in the minors with a slash line of .275/.347/.403 in 1,416 games. Castro served as Seattle's interim hitting coach in 2008 and managed AAA Tacoma for 28 games in 2010.
With Brandon Hyde heading to the bench, the Cubs promoted Jaron Madison as the new director of player development. Madison was hired in August of 2012 as the Cubs director of amateur scouting, the same position he held for the Padres the previous three years, working with McLeod and Hoyer. He spent two years as the St. Louis Cardinals assistant director of scouting and was the assistant to the director of scouting for San Diego from 2005-07. He started his professional baseball career as an associate area scout for the Padres in 2002 and then spent spent three years as an area scout for Pittsburgh covering Northern California, Northern Nevada and Hawaii. Madison oversaw the 2013 draft as the Cubs selected Kris Bryant in the first round.
When Theo Epstein left Boston there was an understanding he could not raid the Red Sox system and would only be able to take one employee with him, including none of the top-level employees in the department. That Red Sox employee was Matt Dorey, an area scout and one of the Red Sox's top talent evaluators. Dorey spent the past two years as the Cubs' regional crosschecker and will replace Madison as the Cubs director of amateur scouting. He will oversee the Cubs 2014 draft and the fourth overall pick. He served the Red Sox as the area scout for Louisiana and Texas after being the club's Northwest scout in 2007, working with McLeod. He is credited with the Red Sox's signing right-hander Anthony Ranaudo (sandwich pick, 2010), third baseman Garin Cecchini (2010 fourth-round), outfielder Kendrick Perkins (2010 sixth-round) and Lucas LeBlanc (2010 11th-round), a group in which Boston spent nearly $5 million.
Cubs GM Jed Hoyer was on 670 SCORE (Chicago radio station) on Saturday morning and addressed the coaching changes.
"We have one more position to add, but we are very happy with where we are, we think we added a lot of impact people, a lot of people with great coaching experience. One of the more important things for us was making sure we could keep our pitching infrastructure in place, with Chris Bosio, Lester Strode and Mike Borzello, I think those guys have done a really good job for us, we made a lot of pitchers better, and players love those guys. A big focus of our winter was making sure we could keep those guys, and we did."
The Cubs have not set any deadline on when they would name a first base coach to replace Dave McKay, who took the same job with the Arizona Diamondbacks.

IMPORTANT LEGAL NOTICE - The information on this site is subject to a disclaimer and a copyright notice.
Engineering design is a process of synthesis.
An engineer planning a new road bridge, for example, must take into
account a whole range of interrelated factors such as the bridge's
deflection under different loads, its resistance to earthquakes,
the building cost and the noise produced by traffic travelling across
it. Unfortunately, juggling all these factors at once can be time-consuming
and the engineer may not even be sure that the final design will
meet all the constraints imposed on it.
The future of engineering design lies in optimisation, a computer
technique that allows engineers to be confident that they have found
the best possible solution to a particular aspect of the design.
By optimising simultaneously for cost, weight, strength and all
the other factors that are important to the final design, the engineer
can make sure that nothing has been overlooked and that the finished
product is indeed the best for the job.
The partners in OPTIM are world leaders in the difficult techniques
of concurrent optimisation. They have developed a saleable product
that has already created great interest in the aerospace industry
and has a promising future in the design of cars, ships and offshore
oil platforms.
Computers can help with many design tasks, yet typical engineering
design software takes a narrow, analytical approach that is a long
way from the broad view that characterises the best human designers.
A structural analysis program, for instance, can calculate the deflection
of a bridge but takes no account of costs, road noise or other important
factors. Even in its own area of expertise, the program is limited:
it can calculate the deflection for a given bridge design, but it
cannot design a bridge to match a given deflection.
So if the deflection turns out to be too great, the structural engineer
has to adjust the design and run the analysis program again. After
a process of trial and error a satisfactory structural design emerges
- but by this time the bridge is heavier than originally planned,
which upsets the calculations of the costing specialist in the next
office. And so the process continues.
The lead partner in OPTIM is SIREHNA, a French company specialising
in technology transfer between research and industrial applications
in the area of fluid mechanics. SIREHNA recognised that there was
an opportunity to use the latest optimisation technology to link
all the different analysis programs used in a typical engineering
design. Closing the loop by reducing the need for human input to
the repetitive parts of the design process would leave engineers
free to do what they do best: specifying the overall design envelope
and coming up with truly innovative solutions.
The OPTIM project, which started in December 1992, brought together
SIREHNA, aircraft manufacturer British Aerospace, Belgian structural
analysis software supplier SAMTECH, and two universities. The aerospace
laboratory at the University of Liège in Belgium specialises
in optimisation of finite-element systems and was in charge of the
algorithms for local optimisation. Eindhoven University of Technology
in the Netherlands, which has good links with industry, looked after
global optimisation.
Throughout the project the aim wherever possible was to allow
engineers to continue working with their existing analysis software.
The core optimisation program, a SAMTECH product known as BOSS/Quattro,
does not attempt to take over the work of the analytical packages;
instead it simply feeds them with the details of the design and
waits for them to calculate their results. Depending on the answers,
BOSS/Quattro then adjusts the design and sends the new details back
to the analysis packages, a process it repeats until it is satisfied
that it has the best design that meets all the engineers' constraints.
BOSS/Quattro communicates with the various analysis programs through
a series of purpose-written translation programs or drivers. Because
the drivers are small and easy to write, BOSS/Quattro can be adapted
to work with almost any existing or future analysis program. The
design programs themselves do not need to be altered in any way,
so engineers can continue to work with tried and tested software,
including programs they have developed themselves.
The algorithms used for the optimisation can be varied to suit the
job in hand, or updated as mathematicians develop new optimisation
techniques. A good example of this is simulated annealing, an optimisation
technique based on stochastic (random) processes. At present, simulated
annealing is not widely used with time-consuming analysis programmes
because it needs large amounts of computing power, but for the future
it promises to increase designers' confidence that they have indeed
found a true global optimum.
The optimisation process starts with the objective function and
constraints, a mathematical statement of the various factors that
are important in the design (strength, weight, cost and so on),
and the importance and limits attached to each. Next, the program
uses a technique known as sensitivity analysis to find out which
of the parameters used to define the design is the most important.
Finally comes the optimisation itself, which falls into two types:
local and global.
Local optimisation tries to locate 'valleys' in a multi-dimensional
plot of the objective function by finding the steepest slopes and
following them downhill until it can go no further. Local optimisers
are quick and efficient, but cannot be relied on to find the deepest
valleys because they may become trapped at the bottom of other,
smaller, valleys. Global optimisation is like flying over the terrain
in a helicopter: it is easier to find the deepest valleys but the
process is time-consuming and needs powerful computers.
The aerospace industry has been optimising individual design factors,
such as the airflow over a wing, for around five years. Aircraft
designers are now starting to look seriously at optimising several
factors at once, so aerospace was a natural place to start the OPTIM
project. By the time the project finished in November 1995, the
partners had developed a new approach to the design of transonic
aerofoils, optimising the wing shape for drag but also taking into
account structural constraints in a way that was simply not possible
with previous techniques.
The OPTIM system is also more flexible and cheaper than the previous
in-house systems. Since the commercial launch of the system in June
1996 many aerospace companies have shown serious interest.
Naval architects have only recently begun to look at optimising
the shapes of ships' hulls to minimise drag, so it will be several
years before concurrent optimisation becomes widely used. Nevertheless,
the partners expect to be selling the system within six months.
Interest from companies designing offshore structures has also been
strong, and further into the future the software may find applications
in the automotive industry, for instance in coupling aerodynamic
design with acoustics to produce cars that are quieter as well as
more fuel-efficient.

ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), a key enzyme in starch biosynthesis, is comprised of large (LSU) and small (SSU) sub-units encoded by multiple paralogous genes in angiosperms. Corbi et al. investigate the patterns of molecular evolution of AGPase genes following duplications. They find that both coevolution among amino acid residues located in between-sub-unit interaction domains or within the highly constrained SSU, and repeated subfunctionalization events under the 'Escape from Adaptive Conflict' model have contributed to AGPase evolution.

After a disappointing performance, there are two things that can take place: Either the team comes back motivated, better prepared and focused, or they slip further into the abyss of mediocrity.
The 10 teams featured here are hoping to rebound from subpar performances and keep hopes for a BCS berth later in the season alive.
After performances in Week 1 that at best left us wondering, and at worst were flat embarrassing, these programs will look to rebound in Week 2.
If things don't get better, and fast, for each one of them, their odds of making a BCS game are going to get smaller and smaller as the competition continues to get tougher and weaknesses continue to be exploited.

Author Biography | Interview | Books by this Author | Readalikes
Wendell Potter is an author, media analyst and corporate watchdog. After a 20-year career as a corporate public relations executive, Wendell left his job as head of communications for one of the nation's largest health insurers and became a vocal critic of insurance company abuses.
In widely covered testimony before the Senate Commerce, Science and Technology Committee in June 2009, Wendell disclosed how insurance companies, as part of their efforts to boost profits, have engaged in practices that have resulted in millions of Americans being forced into the ranks of the uninsured. Wendell also described how the insurance industry has developed and implemented strategic communications plans, based on deceptive public relations and advertising and lobbying efforts, to defeat or weaken reform initiatives.
During his business career, Wendell held a variety of positions at Humana Inc. and CIGNA Corporation. When he left CIGNA in May 2008 he was serving as head of corporate communications and as the company's chief corporate spokesperson.
Wendell, who is now a senior analyst at the Center for Public Integrity and a senior fellow on health care at the Center for Media and Democracy, was a reporter before his career in public relations. A former Washington correspondent for Scripps-Howard newpapers, he covered Congress, the White House and Supreme Court and wrote a weekly political column.

A letter from Wendell Potter on American health care reform and a list of useful references to help those seeking adequate care
Since I started speaking out about the abuses of the health insurance industry and explaining why Americans have put up with the most expensive and one of the most dysfunctional health care systems on the planet, countless people have asked me to intercede on their behalf with an insurance company that has refused to pay for care they need. Many others are among the 51 million Americans without coverage - or the 25 million who are underinsured. They've asked me if I can help them find decent coverage they can afford. Hundreds of people just want to know what they can do to make sure health care reform keeps going forward and how they can get involved in the fight for a more rational and ...

Great game day brunch for my husband and me. I had the Smoked Salmon Scramble with egg whites, (delicious and portions were perfect) and the server was very attentive and adered to any request I had. We sat outside and the amibiance was lively but not loud. I personally would choose this over Tupelo Honey. Will defintiely be back!

When he brought our friends there who were visiting from New York and they absolutely loved it!! We had the salmon with grilled brussels sprouts and carrots and it was probably the best I've ever had!!! The macaroni and cheese is also divine!!!! This is my favorite restaurant in Knoxville!!! They are on the mark every single time!!!

The breakfast menu stops at 10:30. Our reservations were for 10. That left us little time for a brunch. When the lunch menu came on, I could tell the waiter was anxious for us to leave. We were offered no refills or service after that.
The food was very good. The menu didn't have much in the way of healthy choices though.
We loved sitting outside and watching Market Square in action. Don't like sitting inside. Much too crowded.
All in all, go earlier, sit outside and enjoy.

I never thought I would sing a place's praises because of oatmeal. But OH MY WORD it's so wonderful, the perfect balance of comfort and decadence. Also, the poached eggs are superb. Can't recommend this place for brunch highly enough.

Stopped in Cafe 4 on our way to Georgia. Ideally located to our hotel "The Oliver".
Service was excellent. The Mac & Cheese we shared was just okay. Bad choice on our part. Wine list didn't knock us out. Noise level was off the charts loud. Large party near us was boisterous.
Just because it wasn't our night shouldn't be held against Cafe 4. We'll give them another try and so should others.

Dined on Friday evening with good friends. Convenient reservation at bustling Market Square. Table was ready and we were seated promptly. Appetizing menu items. Very pleasant and attentive waitress.
Able to enjoy conversation with reasonable noise level.
Never felt rushed despite busy time. Menu offered range of prices with appealing selections.
Enjoyed the ice cold water decanter on a warm summer evening

Highly mediocre food, drinks, and poor service. The quality of the food was typical of an average fare. The selections were fairly limited and the drinks were bitter as made with cheap mixers and liquors. Will not revisit this restaurant again unless desperate for food in downtown Knoxville.

We had an early dinner here as we needed to get to a function later on. The food and service were exceptional! This was our first time dining here and if we're in the area again we'll definitely dine here again. Our server was very attentive and handled a special request very well. So nice to have servers that actually listen to you and make sure you're happy. Food was excellent and the variety on the menu was very good. Make sure you check out this restaurant if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed!

Fried green tomatoes were good, shrimp and grits were on point. My wife had half of chicken which was to much for her which worked out because the shrimp and grits was a little small. Great service, little loud because some kind of kid convention in town. That is what happens when you have reasonable prices definitely worthwhile.
Great restaurant
This was my first time here. We met friends and sat outside on a beautiful night. The service was great and the food was delicious. We even got a cupcake for dessert which was to die for! Don't know if smoking was allowed or not but no one was smoking. I will be back.

Great rinks before the meal to the Mezz. Quick service with friendly bar tender and wait staff.
Truffle parmesean fries amazing. Salads and entrees were delivered to table in timely fashion.The high quality of the Service and the food made our anniversary dinner a memorable experience. From check in to leaving everyone and everything was top notch.
Can't wait to come back.
Saturday Brunch
Saturday they only offer a brunch menu for lunch. I didn't want breakfast food so I got a hamburger . It was excellent. My husband got a southwestern chicken breakfast item with fried potatoes . It was very good. The restaurant was very noisy and our waiter couldn't hear us well. Next time I will request to sit outside if the weather is nice. Our waiter seem distracted or had too many tables . We had to ask for refills on our drinks. He brought our bill before we received our dessert. Seem to want to rush us out of there. I think I will go back only for weekday lunch or weekend dnner.
A wonderful experience
I dine here frequently, and always have a wonderful experience. This meal was no exception: the cocktails were great, the food was outstanding, and the service was wonderful. The beet and salmon salad was amazing and the baked half chicken was phenomenal ! The decor of the dining room is very uptown chic, but can be a bit loud- this is not a quiet, cozy corner kind of place, but the food and atmosphere is great!
The food is amazing, i had the fish tacos, it has a sriracha dressing in the cloeslaw, avocado and lime, i got 3 tacos in the serving and could only eat 2, i also had a side of the homemade potato chips which were also delicious, service is amazing, very clean, totally recommended!

Cafe 4 is a wonderful restaurant on Market Square; the darker atmosphere makes it cozy and comfortable, though it's quite noisy on any night. I went on a Saturday evening once and waited an hour and a half for a table for two, but it's worth the wait and you can walk around Market Square and wait for a text letting you know your table is ready. I made a reservation for a Thursday evening once and was seated immediately. The macaroni and cheese is to die for, and so rich. I haven't had a bad thing here yet!
Cafe 4 experience
We had reservations and when we checked in we were told our table was almost ready. 20 minutes later... The food was excellent, as always. I recommend adding at least another 30 minutes to your reservation if you need to be somewhere else. Never had an issue before. Could have been that particular evening. I will definitely return and give it another shot. The food is worth it!

A very subtle little touch in the new WillCall update is some gyroscope trigged bokeh on the city view screen, It's not a huge thing as I didn't want it to be to distracting. It was Pat's idea (he built it too) and worked out nicely with this photo I took a while back.

Skip to comments.Pisgah Inn Owner: National Park Service 'Out There with Lights Flashing Right Now' (Update @ 92)
Posted on 10/05/2013 2:58:27 AM PDT by don-o
On Thursday, the Pisgah Inn, which holds a concession on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Asheville, North Carolina, announced that it would defy the National Park Services order to close up, and would open doors for business on Friday. On Friday morning, NPS rangers showed up, lights swirling, to close down the business and turn away its customers, supposedly thanks to the government shutdown.
Pisgah Inn receives no federal money, and according to owner Bruce OConnell, who spoke exclusively to Breitbart News, All we do is pay the government money. We dont take anything from them. It is located on the Blue Ridge Parkway, which was deemed a thoroughway and therefore left open by the National Parks Service. Nonetheless, earlier this week, the NPS moved to shut it down. Michael Litterst, chief spokesman for the Park Service, said, We do not believe it is appropriate or feasible to have some parts of the system open while others are closed to the public.
(Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...
So the gov is going out of it's way to LOSE money.
From what I see on the video, it looks like anyone who drove up to the Inn expecting to have a meal or to shop is going to encounter Park Police.
They might need to talk to them for a few minutes to understand what's going on. I looks like a small area to turn around at the gate.
Traffic might get backed up on the Parkway.
Just sayin'
Heard the man on Hannity say that the FedGov receives a portion of the daily receipts.
It is time for collective action, perhaps with a couple of supportive Congressional Representatives. Will NPS call out the riot squad to stop a peaceful crowd with Congressional representatives from going in to have lunch? If the answer is yes, then Obama will be unmasked even more and time for everyone to read Matt Bracken's "What I Saw at the Coup."
No. It is likely, because they are profitable, the feds are looking to shut them down, force them into bankruptcy, buy up the properties, and open Under new ownership, the feds or friends of feds.
Mrs. abb and I stayed overnight there back in August. Views from the restaurant are to die for.
I wonder how many Veterans and Bikers and Veteran Bikers live within an hour's ride of this place?
I wonder if any of them might be hungry today?
Also, this time of year is the highest volume of traffic on the Blue Ridge because of fall foliage tourists.
No, they don't care about money. If they need it, they will come to you and me and take it.
What they care about is maintaining their control - just like the Nazis, the Stalinists, the Mussolinis of times past.
I would not put it past them, but I do not think they actually are thinking that far ahead - at least the operatives are not. Those folks got the memo: "inflict pain."
Monkeys with grenades.
Looks pretty. Bring the kids and some cameras.
But, the reason Obama's golf course is staying open was supposed to be because it took in payments as well...
From Asheville TV 13
I STILL have HOPE.
The local media in western NC and upstate S Carolina has the story.
The locals got riled up back in 2000
Sounds like the king needs a trip to Runnymede.
This time of year, on Weekends, there are LOTS of bikers, Gold Wing clubs, Corvette clubs, Miata clubs, Hot Rod clubs which come up to drive the Parkway and see the leaves changing.
Atlanta, Greenville, Spartanburg, Knoxville are all within 1-3 hours drive.
(if any Freepers are organizing something, call & give owner Bruce OConnell a heads-up so he can be prepared!)
The Park Police are supposed to have cruisers blocking the entrance.
Is there a "Tow Trucks for Freedom" club located nearby?
I was thinking that myself, hmmm, obviously there is a different reason why the golf courses are staying open. hmmm, I wonder what that could be?
On a serious note, are all military courses open or just the ones around DC?
Those who pray might pray that these people get convicted in their hearts about enforcing illegal orders. And refuse.
Not only lose money, but spend money using Park Police to enforce shutting down a money making activity that does not need to be shut down because the purpose of the Anti Deficiency Act is for the government to NOT SPEND without Congressional authorization. It is not TO SPEND in order to shut down. That is completely the opposite.
We need to find another term than government shutdown to describe the situation of not being authorized to SPEND!
Off Topic: CNN at 6:45 am est, just did a story on bees in China, the TV graphic showed Hong Kong on the coast of Brazil with CNN logo on the bottom. Can anyone capture and post this Epic graphic? LOL !!!
The money involved is trivial.
It's really simple. It's that the word has come down from the WH that the sheeple must be inconvenienced in order to cast blame upon the Tea Party!
The more the sheeple suffer, the better! It's Obama's fault! It's even beginning to show in the rigged polls.
On an even more serious note when does he shut down the name servers that run the internet?
The 'plan' ? Totally believable IMO.
I did quite like how the 'plan' became unraveled by the unexpected emergence of "the Militia of One," the largely unorganized eruption of independent citizens taking their own actions wherever they could with a devasting effect on the common federal collaborators and enforcers that held the government's power together.
How is this not a crime? How is this not actionable in court?
Doubtless the Rooskies or the Chinese, both having learned how to use this US invention, the Internet, would step into the breach with (somewhat) viable solutions. (BTW, the Rooskies recently acquired a notable US expert on internet infrastructure).
P.I. facebook posting
Greetings Pisgahteers,
all I can say is WOW!!!! The last 72 hours have been the craziest of my life. I have talked to more media and congress people than I ever thought a simple, country boy would. Michelle Bachman called me by my first name and told me I was a a great American. Like her or not it was a thrill for me.
So here is our latest. We have Park Service Rangers at our gates blocking entry to the Inn. We are essentially closed at this time. We are still moving some chess pieces but now those moves are taken with a little more caution. For those of you that wish to support us financially call the Inn and purchase a gift certificate. It will always be good and it can be used in the restaurant, gift shop or hotel. We will be in the office from 9-5 until we re-open or at some time when a decision will be made to close for the season. We love you all and are so humbled by the out pouring of support and prayers from all over our still great nation. See Ya Soon,

And per the park rangers: "I'm only following orders" is not a valid reason for doing wrong!
This man should have standing to sue over Obama's ineligibility. Particularized, justiciable harm.
If there was a groundswell of lawsuits in too many courts for Obama to bribe and/or threaten, maybe Obama would learn to fear the people.
Resist! Take a lil drive up to Pisgah to see the leaves.
My wife and I have been there...it is absolutely stunning, especially in fall. Make sure you hang this shutdown albatross right around the neck of EVERY SINGLE democrat you encounter...b*stards. All 65 million of you.
Michelle Bachmann ought to show up with a tow truck or two...
They just shut down one of the oldest restaurants in San Francisco.
It is privately owned and always has been.
The governor needs to call it an invasion and mobilize the state guard.
We now have a name...
I thought they weren't allowed to work
Two names.
Then quit.
One man's spite and anger is responsible for this. One man who micromanages all agencies of the government. One man who is getting his revenge on the people that he hates so much.
And that's the rub...they love their jobs more than their country.
