Ratings for Dr. Stephen A. Champlin
The Best OB/GYN in the state of Louisiana! I'm still here because GOD sent him to me. Thank you Dr. Champlin for all your kind words & prayers you did with me before my many surgeries! You're Heaven Sent, MAY GOD BLESS YOU & KEEP YOU SAFE!
Dr.Champlin is the best Doctor hands down...Everything about him...My daughter goes to him now to and loves him...If I have any questions I call him and he calls me back the same day to take care of any problems I have...He's the best
Dr. Champlin is the best! Wonderful bedside manners, and will give you his personal pager if you ever have trouble getting in touch with him. Dedicated to his patients!
The staff are slow and make unkept promises. They tell you they will call you back when bloodwork comes back and 2 weeks later, I've still yet to have anyone call me back. I've called them multiple times and they tel me that Dr Champlin will call me back, and either the meesages aren't getting relayed, or he is simply too busy to call back a patient of 2 years. Very disappointing service. I will not be going back. Looking to get all of my bloodwork transferred to another ob/gyn who makes their patients feel like people and not just another number.
Wouldn't want any other doctor to deliver my baby! Champlin makes me feel at ease and he is very easy to talk to.
I love this doctor he is calm and he explains everything to you. He delivered my daughter and every time I called them with a concern he was there to answer my questions.He did a fantastic job delivering my daughter. He is the best doctor I know he is caring and he makes you feel comfortable to come to him. I just got a new doctor Samuel Alexander and I tell u I really miss my doctor. The staff are friendly and welcoming. As soon as I get some more good insurance I swear I'm leaving Alexander and going back to Champlin.
Hands down the best OBGYN. I drive 30 miles in order to ensure he remain my doctor. I've had many issues, and he is the most knowledgeable and empathetic doctor. GREAT, GREAT, GREAT!!!
He is absolutely amazing! We had an emergency delivery and once we made it to the hospital, all our fears were cleared because of his confidence and assuring bedside manner. I recommend him to all my friends and complete strangers. THE BEST DOCTOR EVER!
Really friendly and easy to talk with, Dr. Champlin made it clear that he was there to help with any of my health concerns
I wouldn't trust another doctor. he is wonderful and makes you feel comfortable in a very uncomfortable situation. You can ask him anything and he does not judge. He is great.

The pressure from the protesters in Kiev has paid off; they won most of their demands.
Ukraine's president, Viktor Yanukovich, signed an agreement to reduce his power and hold elections.
Yanukovich's ally, Russian president Vladimir Putin, loses influence in a neighboring nation.
Ukraine is moving closer to Western Europe and the U.S.
The White House applauded the agreement,
"The fact of the matter is, it is in Russia's interest for the violence to end in the Ukraine," said White House Spokesperson Jay Carney.
President Obama got on the phone to Putin.
Republicans urged him to still impose sanctions on Ukraine.
Back in Kiev, Ukrainian lawmakers traded punches, raising fears that today's agreement might not end the violence in this sharply divided nation.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senators Pete Domenici and Jeff Bingaman today asserted that a new Governmental Accountability Office (GAO) report affirms that the Air Force used the correct analysis and made the right decision to locate an Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) mission at Cannon Air Force Base in New Mexico
The GAO-initiated report, "Defense Infrastructure: Realignment of Air Force Special Operations Command Unites to Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico," studied the decision to locate AFSOC assets at Cannon and found that the process for the decision was based on sound information. It also looks at future personnel and aircraft estimates at Cannon, and affirms AFSOC plans at the base. Domenici and Bingaman indicated that the GAO report does not diminish their expectations for Cannon's future.
"There's nothing earth-shattering in this report, and it only solidifies my enthusiasm for the future of AFSOC at Cannon," Domenici said. "While the GAO might estimate that there will be fewer aircraft at Cannon, the truth is AFSOC numbers have changed before and could change again. We don't know for sure what the final Cannon numbers will be, but know there will be great things for Cannon. We just have to look at the recent Air Force Roadmap to see all the great assets they are considering for Cannon's future."
"I'm certain AFSOC will have a long relationship with Cannon Air Force Base, and that it will play an increasingly important role in our national security," Bingaman said.
Domenici, who serves on the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, and Bingaman also pointed to the FY2008 Defense Appropriations Bill that provided $10.75 million for military construction projects at Cannon as a signal of the ongoing growth they expect at the base as the AFSOC mission is fully implemented. The defense spending bill also contained $238 million for Special Operations Forces to modify CV-22 aircraft, which should have an impact on Cannon.

Try Freeware First! was Re: Guide-How to convert DVD and videos to ipod movie or ipod music
> 'Get Joy Video to iPod Converter now'
> (http://www.mp3dvdsoft.com/ipod-video-converter.html) .
Before you guys shell out $35 to these spammers to watch movies on your
podphones, download Media Converter for free from the Linux hackers at
Maemo for the Nokia Internet tablets and give it a try. It's freeware,
but even iPhone owners, after a certain guilt period, can get
comfortable with it.
This app runs on Linux, Windows and OSX so you should find a flavor that
runs on your desktop environment just fine.
Designed for the N770, Nokia's first attempt at the Linux internet
tablet, its output has been modified to add N800 compatible sizes to the
770's Mpeg4 Divx formats I think your Ipod/phones will play. There are
many sizes of conversions available so you can experiment around to find
one that works best on your pod/phones.
The app is a JAVA cross platform app, so don't become alarmed when a
system window opens to run the JAVA Runtime environment when it boots.
It's GUI is quite simple and straight forward to operate. You can click
and drag videos into its processing list. It makes no modifications to
the original files, but creates new files that are much more compact, by
about 50%, which is why I'm using it with great success for my N800.
Full length movies in very acceptable quality (use the 2-pass encoding)
and only occupy about 350-410KB. With two 8GB SDHC cards, I can carry a
LOT of movie watching in the tablet without swapping cards, even with
Navicore's maps of the whole North American continent resident on them.
This would be great on iPhones with limited memory you can't swap, if
the movies will run.
Download it from the Maemo Garage:
Once installed try selecting N800 then pick "Medium" and it converts to
MP4 320 x 176 or "High" at 400 x 240, which is what I'm currently using
to get 400K full length movies. The N800 fills the 800 pixel screen
with mplayer and the picture quality looks first class at this level.
The ipod/phones should, too.
While in the garage, have a look around at what COULD have been if Apple
had let the genius coders have their way with an open source iPhone.
There are hundreds of projects ongoing of some really neat stuff, all
for the downloading. You don't have to know anything about Linux to use
most of it. Too bad they live in a closed environment world.
Try the converter and let me know how the movies look from it on the
ipods and phones....thanks.

Here we set out the specifications for producing NHS business cards.
The measurements for the positioning of text and the NHS logotype are based on a card measuring 90mm x 55mm.
On business cards, your logotype size is measured by the height of the NHS logo. This should be 4.25mm.
The specifications for organisation names are as follows:
The specifications for job titles are as follows:
The specifications for unit or department names are as follows:
The specifications for address and contact details are as follows:
You can add your website address under the contact information if you want to.
If you need to increase the point size of your lettering (for example, if your cards need to be tailored for people with visual impairments), both sides of the card can be used. For cost-effectiveness, all variable information about the cardholder should be limited to one side only.
All business cards should be printed on a heavier-weight cartridge paper or pulp-board.

A bridge closure suggests how bus lanes could affect traffic
Skeptics of Montgomery County's proposal to put bus lanes on major roads fear it could make traffic worse. But a road closure on Route 29 to repair recent storm damage might offer a glimpse of our possible future.
Two weeks ago, a torrential rainstorm flooded Route 29, also known as Columbia Pike, on a bridge where it crosses Northwest Branch in Silver Spring. This isn't the first time the bridge has flooded, and soon after, Maryland State Highway Administration closed the heavily damaged right lanes from Southwood Avenue to Lockwood Drive. Last Monday, it began making repairs, which will last until the end of May.
Montgomery County's Bus Rapid Transit plan envisions a line on Route 29 between Burtonsville and Silver Spring, which is already one of the region's busiest transit corridors, with 40 buses an hour during rush hour. Along most of the corridor, buses would have their own lanes, though we don't know if they would be on the curb or in the median, or if there would be a a reversible lane or lanes in both directions.
In any case, creating bus lanes would mean closing a lane to cars, which some residents in nearby Four Corners are vehemently opposed to. Thanks to last month's storm, we now get to see what closing a lane on Route 29 to general traffic might be like.
I've driven and taken the bus through the affected area a few times, including in evening rush hour. And there is some congestion, especially where drivers have to merge from three lanes to two. But the real test is what happens after people adjust to the new traffic pattern.
Studies have shown that taking away street space, often predicted to cause traffic mayhem, can actually reduce congestion as people find alternate ways to get there. Since the closure began, I've experimented with different routes. I've taken the bus at times of day when I would normally drive because there would be less traffic. Meanwhile, the sidewalks are still open, and I've noticed more people walking or biking to and from Trader Joe's across the bridge.
That may not seem like a big deal, but it only takes a 5% reduction in traffic to cause a 10 to 30% increase in traffic speed, meaning only a few people have to change their behavior in order for everyone to have a faster trip. It also explains why major highway closures around the country, like Carmageddon in Los Angeles, didn't cause the traffic they were anticipated to.
Of course, this isn't a perfect trial. The buses still have to share the remaining two lanes of traffic with everyone else. Unlike other, larger highway closures, there isn't a campaign directing drivers to other routes or beefed-up transit service. And unlike a road washout, a bus lane will give drivers another travel alternative to choose from instead of simply taking away street space.
But if Route 29 travelers can handle losing a lane for a few weeks, when the bridge is repaired, we might be able to do another trial with an actual bus lane.
I typically take the Z9/29 from Burtonsville, but, expecting bad backups primarily in the PM peak, I've been driving to Glenmont and getting Metro from there.
Therein however lay some problems with the dynamics of this. If even I as a transit rider who drives am driving more as a result of this, I'm sure that many others who drive exclusively, and for whom 29 is the most direct path for their trip, are likely driving more miles in the business of reaching the same destinations. As a result, traffic on the pike may decrease, but is offset by a general increase in driving miles elsewhere.
My round trip mileage for the daily commute was 20 using Burtonsville and the Z line - it's 34 to drive to Glenmont directly.
BTW, places like Stewart Lane off 29 have only one side of the street with shelters, meaning half the passengers are forced to wait without either seats or shelters in the elements.
And I agree with Mike.
You've got to be kidding me. The lane closure here has made traffic a nightmare to the point where University now backs up each way because of the gridlock at Four Corners. Traffic on Georgia ave is also noticeably worse as commuters are diverting to go north south. If anything this only proves what a disaster taking a lane in the rush direction would be.
Hey look, some real data. Reducing road capacity made traffic horribly worse. Who woulda thunk.
In the current example, busses would be delayed just as much as the single occupancy vehicles are, so there is little incentive to take the bus instead. If an exclusive bus lane is added, it would actually give a large benefit to those choosing to ride it, so results would likely be better than what is seen now with a lane completely closed to all traffic.
Which is great for those people who are in a position to take the bus, I'm sure. A hell of a lot of people driving that route can't feasibly do that for various reasons, including not living particularly close to the bus line, so punishing them isn't going to get them to take the bus, it's just going to double the length of their commute. You're going to deliberately hurt other people so that you can get a modest benefit. And here I was thinking that the point of transit was to improve the transportation system for everyone.
Nail-head what the problem is with some of the "Smart Growth" Committee's plans. And that it keeps seeming they target damage to communities not their own.
Because the people who ride the bus now and would likely love better bus service aren't part of the "community"?
"Punish"? "Deliberately hurt"? Paranoid much? ("Paranoid thinking typically includes persecutory beliefs, or beliefs of conspiracy concerning a perceived threat towards oneself (e.g. "Everyone is out to get me")).
In less emotive terms, the conversion of a general traffic lane to a dedicated bus lane would likely increase the cost (in time) to many drivers in that corridor, while decreasing the cost (in time) to many bus riders in that corridor. This change in the balance of costs and benefits may induce a number of people who currently drive alone in that corridor to alter their behavior (by arranging to take the bus, or carpooling, or adjusting their schedule, etc).
There aren't many projects that benefit everyone - ask any NIMBY.
by John Henry Holliday on May 16, 2014 1:19 am • link • report
If traffic is worsened not only on the changed road, but as result, on roads not meant to take the road's overflow - causing dangerous situations - that's poor planning. If you make traffic worse in a location, it generally gets more dangerous. And creating knowing risk and damage to others and their nearby properties, creating accidents or loss from said planning, is doing deliberate harm.
Does the damage in a plan done to drivers outweigh the benefits given the bus route? - if yes, stop.
Then how much is this projected to cost, how will it be paid?
Will traffic be made worse on other roads as a result- what will be done to prevent problems? Is that being weighed in the environmental benefit-damage analysis?
Is the proposal to build in the median or to close lanes to drivers use that they paid for the building of for their use and for its maintenance for many years?
How many and where are the proposed expensive "stations" going to be placed? Will parking be required, etc.?
Is this going forward with support of the local community who will live beside it?
Are there other, less damaging, and less expensive ways to achieve the bus goal?
(More friends of transit should be getting up when they see a lack of bike racks and bus shelters - both sides of the streets)
But that's not the case. The road will move more people during peak periods (because of more frequent and faster bus service that can move many more people than SOV), so that is a net benefit overall.
Is the proposal to build in the median or to close lanes to drivers use that they paid for the building of for their use and for its maintenance for many years?
When it comes to all roads, everyone has been paying to build them. And especially when it comes to local roads (which get basically zero user fee funding).
Proper planning will should be able to determine the least painful method of bringing BRT lines to reality, but the status quo is not an option. This lane closure should provide planners with a wealth of data to better plan for the transition, and I commend Dan Reed for pointing out this opportunity should the county not be paying attention.
Being resistant to change becasue of short term pain has never been a good option in any aspect of life, and it certainly isn't in this case. We will suffer economically if we do not embrace these changes becasue companies see loosing time stuck in traffic as a disincentive for establishing a new businesses in an area not well served by transit. On the residential side the market is clearly showing that more people would prefer to spend their 'extra' hours with their loved ones rather than getting high blood pressure stuck in traffic.
Planners still have a lot of work to convince area residents that the BRT on a dedicated lane is the best choice for improving the overall quality of life, but the data is there. They need to do a better job at showing the facts to overcome the natural fear of change.
Is this an argument for or against closing a lane to general traffic? Seems like pretty bad traffic to me.
That is not a fair statement because the "fear of change" is what pushed special interest groups to stop the progression of getting I-95 and I-270 built between DC and the Beltway.
The facts have been already shown that removing the existing travel lanes for a special bus will not improve commute times and it will make traffic worse and the issue with US Highway 29 few weeks past showed and proved what will happen if existing lanes are removed from busy roads.
And then somebody comes in and says driver needs are irrelevant for Rt. 29. Discusses wasting millions and all that building effort to make Rt. 29 driver impassable, extra slowed, and/or dangerous.
I'm not against the idea of using the medians for buses. I'm against closing lanes to drivers after all that effort, and without beyond excellent - sterling - cause. To do otherwise is wasteful, and short-sighted, and ignores the basics of the traffic - that a huge bulk of rush hour on 29 is coming to/from/through Howard County.
So how is closing a lane on 29 going to help to do anything but waste tons in gas through idling vehicles?

Atif Aslam's concert: Three killed in stampede in Lahore
Atif Aslam's concert was held at Alhamra Cultural Complex in Lahore on Monday and a large number of students of the Punjab College of Commerce had gathered at the venue. Deputy Inspector General of Police Ghulam Mahmood Dogar told PTI, "When the concert ended, some girls rushed towards Mr Aslam to get his autograph. To save Mr Aslam from the crowd, the security guards resorted to a light baton charge which caused panic among the girls."
According to Dogar the stampede occurred at the exit door and many students were injured in the incident. Although the injured were taken to nearby hospitals, the doctors could not save the life of three female business students. Officials described the condition of five injured persons as critical.

Public Spaces
How to make better streets, quickly and cheaply
Changes to our urban landscape can seem daunting at times. But reader thm points us to this TED talk in which New York City Department of Transportation Commissioner Janette Sadik-Khan shows how New York quickly and cheaply changed its streets, sometimes with only some paint, to improve the experience for all users.
Some of these changes we already have here, such as bike sharing and parking-protected bike lanes. Others, like BRT, are in the planning stages. But are there places in the DC area that could benefit from conversion into a pedestrian plaza?
Yes. Many of the small 'National Parks' that are surrounded by road jungles, many triangles, squares and circles. Much of the space around the Capitol. Eastern Market. M St and WI Ave in Georgetown. Rosslyn. King St Metro area. King St from the metro to the water front. The old town waterfront. The area around the Springfield Mall.
King street in old town could work of you let the trolley still roll up and down the middle.
One day it'd be awesome if the parking lot in front if the whole foods in Clarendon was coupled with the little street section in front of it and plaza-ified.
M street in Georgetown, (though a pedestrian path on the key bridge that didn't include crossing an on ramp would be crucial.
Vt and Ct avenues between the White House and McPherson/Farragut squares.
Times Square also straightened out traffic by removing the "shortcut" of Broadway through Times Square. This is probably covered in the video.
Problem with M St is that, unlike King St, you can't entirely close if for cars because it leads to Key Bridge, which is a major access point to the city. There are, however, many things that can be done to improve traffic flow, and improve the situation for pedestrians, bikers and transit.
For instance, parking can be removed. Cross streets can be closed to cars. Side-walks can be widened. There should be a bike-lane as well as a transit only lane (with a streetcar to WI Ave). And the connections between Key Bridge, Canal Rd, The Whitehurst Freeway and 34th Sts can be massively improved.
What's the Whitehurst for, then?
What I don't get is why it's only closed on the weekends. Pedestrians could probably make better use of the road than the few cars that come through, particularly on weeknights.
I see this argument by Dan against closing it to cars during the week:
But since he wrote that, quite a few condos and apartments have opened up not far from Ellsworth, plus there are more and better restaurants nearby. What do we gain by letting a few cars onto it certain days of the week?
There were pedestrian plazas in that area for many years, and they were colossal failures -- they did nothing to help the already failing businesses downtown, but they attracted homeless people by the dozens. I suspect that they could work better now that there is more life downtown 24/7, but they would be a hard sell for anyone who has been in this area for a while and remembers how awful the last attempt was.
Fair enough. The rule is you need a lot o activity in an area already for it to work. Like you say, I think its possible today.
Like MLD says, we have the whitehurst. I know the calls for its removal have been floated though, but if we're going to keep then at least use it to make M a little better.
Georgetown desperately needs wider sidewalks no matter what.
I think one issue there is that the Portrait Gallery closes down at 7. So even though there's tons of activity around that block, one side of the street has absolutely no activity in the evening. Additionally, on G St in particular you have very little street-facing activity. There are, what, two bars with outdoor seating areas? And then an office building which I don't believe even has ground-floor retail.
So yeah, I'm not sure that that would be a good location for a pedestrian zone. If anything, it seems like closing down a section of 7th St might be the most useful for pedestrians.
While M ST and the Key Bridge need to be accessible by Georgetowners in cars for the foreseeable future if you're going to have their wide support on any change, keeping the Whitehurst as-is is a strong argument (and point of concession) for making more space on M for peds/bikes/transit.
From a transportation perspective there should probably be more focus on the pedestrian experience on 7th. Increase the number if Barnes dances and what not.
So how does one get north of M Street or on to many of the sidestreets that lead only to M Street and what about delivery vechiles, buses not just Metro but DC Circulator, Georgetown Univ, School Buses etc.
You could still have transit lanes with loading zones.
As for private vehicles they can get on rock creek parkway, canal road, or come back up water street until they get to Wisconsin. Since the number of vehicles using M would be vastly reduced then the light cycle at M and Wisconsin could be retooled to let more cars through.
Obviously all that would need extensive modeling to see what's feasible but the reason we are talking about it is because the status quo is so poor.
However, there's certainly many areas that should be less cars and much wider sidewalks and bike lanes. U Street comes to mind, as does 14th. I'd even like to see my own S Street NW become pedestrian, bikes, delivery vehicles and parked cars only. We have one-ways north and south of us. There's plenty of streets in town that could also be made multi-modal except for thru-traffic cars.
I must be missing something but there could be no loading zones as the trucks are private vehicles which would not be traveling on M
Canal, Rock Creek and Water street do not help those
traveling to
M Street, Prospect Street, N Street, O Street, Q Street P Street, and Dumbarton Street between 29th Street and 34 Street.
To make it feasible at all you would need to atleast build ramps on the Whitehurst Fwy at Wisconsin Ave and completely redo the where K Street, 27th Street, Whitehurst Fwy and Rock Creek Parkway all meet.
A better idea would be to close M Street between Wisconsin Ave and 29th Street with a redesigned intersection where K Street, 27th Street, Whitehurst Fwy and Rock Creek Parkway all meet that includes turn lanes from all directions from Pennsylvania Ave to Rock Creek Parkway.
The problem with the area is that there is only two routes to get out of the area M Street to Canal Road, Penn Ave or Key Bridge or P Street to Dupont Circle and the Whitehurst to bypass the area but doesn't help if you need to go north of M Street.. It is the lack of bridges on the Potomac River and Rock Creek that make the problems worst.
If we could I would connect Prospect and Olive Street and turn the canal into L Street having each as a one way street then close M but that can not happen.
You can not help the traffic in the area without effecting people that one have to travel through there due to lack of main roads elsewhere, two lack of bridges, and three are going to Georgetown.
You don't need a new ramp onto Wisconsin, just figure out if there is a way to get cars from the whitehurst down to water street. It'd be tight and cars would have to travel a little further but travel time could go down if there are fewer lights to contend with.
And really the only issue is people coming from va to parts of Wisconsin closer to Georgetown. Make RCP two way 24/7 and you can travel anywhere further uptown without much trouble.
You're not going to pave over the canal. That would ruin it.
Remove the whitehurst but also disconnect the key bridge from M street. Cross the bridge and either turn left onto canal road and you can now turn right onto the now extended K street where you can turn left onto Wisconsin. The road is so wide down there they allow diagonal parking so it can handle more volume than M which then has breathing room to have the sidewalks extended.
Which is my point it can not just happen something needs to be added or torn down to make this realistic. In some way extra money will be used.
Also concerning the canal what the hell is there to ruin it is a piece of s**t, I have been to canals in India, France, Germany and the Netherlands and the canal here is worthless compared to them all.
If it is not going to be functional at least make it pretty but that's not even done. It is a dirty disgusting mess then either needs to be redone or closed completely.
Since Pennsylvania in front of the White House has been closed for security reasons, through traffic connecting New York Ave to Pennsylvania Ave has been using H and I Streets. What if the traffic were better channelized to use H and I Streets, thereby freeing up space along NY and Penn?
From Mt. Vernon Sq., the two westbound lanes of NY Ave will be forced onto I Street. NY Ave between 13th/H and 11th/I will be one-way eastbound, and the excess space from the westbound lanes can be used to widen sidewalks and increase the are of the small triangular parks that already exist in the area.
Similarly on the west side of the White House, Pennsylvania will be one-way eastbound from 21st/I to 19th/H. All traffic from Pennsylvania will be diverted to H and Penn could be closed within the Edward R Murrow Park. Penn between 17th and 18th can be significantly narrowed.
The benefits of doing this will free up a lot of open space and even improve traffic flow. For example, the traffic signal at 21/I/Penn can be significantly simplified, because I street traffic westbound and Penn Ave eastbound traffic can go through the intersection at the same time.
My idea is similar to what they did in New York with regard to Broadway. By removing Broadway at Times Square and Herald Square, the city created a lot of open space while also simplifying the crazy intersections. In Washington, most of the bigger streets cut across the grid on a diagonal, but because of the closure at the White House, Penn's traffic needs to be diverted anyway.

Our bungalow location was right on the beach. The food at the restaurants was good. The amenities are all great: we used and had good experiences with the transfer service, the spa and the complimentary DVD collection. The staff was friendly and helpful.
I guess the only downside is how far the hotel is from Bangkok and how long it takes to get there, but that wasn't even too bad since the van has a DVD player, you get to see more of Thailand, and you can stop for food or bathroom breaks.
The location, the look of the bungalows, free WIFI and DVDs.
Not very varied choice at breakfast, not enough sunbeds.

Social media is an emerging arena for apartment investors, owners, and marketers looking to improve net operating income (NOI) and keep their revenue management systems appropriately juiced with demand. At the 2013 Apartment Revenue Management Conference, presentations on renewal analytics and resident satisfaction are likely to address the social realm. The conference itself--like all industry events in this day and age--will also be punctuated, commented, repurposed and reposted to social media platforms as it unfolds.
At least two sessions at the Apartment Revenue Management Conference will discuss the emerging analytical value of social media and user content in the multifamily business. "Customer Relationship Management Systems and Business Intelligence" on Monday September 23 at 4:15 will feature Salesforce.com's SVP of Big Data Analytics – Keith Bigelow, along with Tina Mortera, Senior Vice President of Alliance Residential, Chris Brust of ReLuminous and moderator, Erik Rogers from Carmel Partners. Tina and Keith will discuss social discovery in the CRM program, and its potential for generating additional yield.
And on Wednesday morning September 25, our "Untapped Arbitrage: Resident Satisfaction" will discuss using resident feedback to systematically determine what they value and what makes an apartment community harder to leave.
"Social media" has many meanings and delivery points. Some of them have relevance for the business of maximizing asset value, just as LinkedIn has business value for real estate managers but MySpace probably doesn't.
In our own small way, the social media arm for the Apartment Revenue Management Conference provides some business value for social media - reaching into Facebook, where NAA's official page regularly features revenue management news and conference updates, and of course also in the blogosphere here at APTly Spoken. Throw in our industry's vibrant Twitter ecosystem and you've got real-time access to revenue management news, trends and insights.
We look forward to continuing to engage in the revenue management conversation in our social spheres, and encourage all of our friends, contacts, and re-tweeters to promote registration to the Apartment Revenue Management Conference, Sept. 23-25 at Turnberry Isle Miami. It's going to be a #AptRevenue event you won't forget.

British manufacturers are on a hiring spree as they enjoy the strongest business conditions for 16 years.
The Markit/CIPS purchasing managers' index of manufacturing activity rose to 58 in November, its highest level since September 1994 and up from 55.4 in October, raising hopes that Britain's recovery continued its momentum in the final quarter of the year. Readings above 50 point to rising activity in the sector, while those below indicate contraction.
Less encouragingly, however, the PMI survey also showed that cost pressures rose sharply in November, with the rate of price inflation accelerating to its highest since August 2008.

Another search took place Saturday for Jacque Waller. More than 20 months after she went missing a large group combed the area near Devil's Island in Alexander County. The Cape Girardeau Fire Department, the Little Egypt Rescue team, several K-9 teams, and many volunteers, including landowners assisted. She was not found. Jacque Waller disappeared on June 1, 2011. Her estranged husband Clay Waller remains jailed charged with first degree murder in connection with Jacque's disappearance. He is set to stand trial in September.

I shouldn't be surprised, maybe; I first noticed four years ago that Lee has a strange curse whereby only every other film of his is great. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was followed by Hulk, The Ice Storm was followed by Ride with the Devil, and while Sense and Sensibility certainly isn't bad, it certainly isn't Eat Drink Man Woman, either. So I guess we should have expected that his follow-up to his best film, Brokeback Mountain, should end up so dissatisfying.
And not least because of how very much it does very well. The film opens (after a delightfully cryptic flash-forward) in Hong Kong, 1938, on a group of politically radical theater students, forming their very own resistance cell against the Japanese occupation of China. For their first action, they decide to assassinate Mr. Yee (Tony Leung Chiu Wai), and to make that happen, the wide-eyed freshman Wong Jia-Zhi (Tang Wei) is disguised as the wife of a successful importer-exporter, thereby insinuating herself in the company of Yee's wife (Joan Chen).
So long as it dabbles in exposition, the film is great. Ang Lee is a great filmmaker if ever there was such a thing, and for the first time we get to see what he does when he gets his hands around a thriller. It is a good thing. The director (and his frequent collaborators, screenwriters James Schamus and Wang Hui-Ling) balances all sorts of layers effortlessly: the raw mechanic of plot, the satiric fun to be had at the expense of kids getting in over their heads, the political and cultural urgency of a story set during China's experience of the second world war, and a breathless genre piece.
Meanwhile, Tang Wai, in her film debut, owns the movie like she was born to it. The camera adores her face, especially given the way that Prieto shoots her like a 1940s Hollywood starlet (honestly, there's not much else to his work here that stands out. It's very solid, but lacks personality, and coming directly after the complicated but ineffective work he did on Babel, I begin to fear that he's losing his touch), and her performance negotiates the story's emotional twistiness perfectly.
Then the exposition turns into the plot, and, well...
At its core, here is what Lust, Caution is about: Mr. Yee becomes attracted to Wong, and just as he's about to cautiously act on his lust, he must flee to Shanghai. Cut to 1942: Wong is recruited by the real Resistance to finish the work she started four years earlier, and as she seduces Yee a second time, she finds to her horror that she's falling in love. Meanwhile, they have sex in scenes that fully justify the film's NC-17 rating, and are clearly not incidental, but are in some ways the emotional heart of the film, as two pent-up people trapped in an oh-so-formal society give way to their needs in guilty, angry explosions.
There's quite a lot of film going on around that, don't get me wrong: a film about the ways that Occidental influences have corrupted Chinese self-identity (something Lee doubtlessly has a valid perspective on), a film about the rigid formalism of Chinese life as embodied by the endless games of mah jongg the idle ladies play. The film's representation of Hong Kong and Shanghai during the war are triumphs of production design, and the plot clips along nicely when it has to, and slows down as naturally as possible.
But the sex scenes, and the love story that sparks them, simply don't work, and that's not a minor problem. That's the whole film done for, because everything about the film's structure implies that this relationship and its evolution is what matters (not to mention the director's insistence that removing the sex would leave the film meaningless). Even the title refers to the pas de deux between the two lovers.
The infamous sex scenes are amateurish. There, I've said it. Ang Lee isn't the first great filmmaker who simply doesn't know how to stage fucking and be convincing about it. The first scene works, and the first scene involves Yee raping Wong while they're both clothed, so it can be mostly ignored. The rest is all flailing limbs and gorgeously lit flesh and impossible mechanics. I could maybe forgive the number of shots in which the participants look like they'd just be flat-out uncomfortable - some positions take more dedication than others, after all - but there are a dismaying number of things that you just can't do, a la the pool scene in Showgirls (which had the excuse of not striving for eroticism): in one scene, I swear to God, it looks like Yee is trying to penetrate Wong's ankle.
As for the love story proper, it falls apart completely on the total lack of chemistry between the two leads. We know that Tony Leung can do romantic drama like nobody's business from In the Mood for Love, were he gets to play the male lead in one of the most erotic films in cinema history, without exposing one-twentieth of the naked flesh we see here. And as beautiful as Tang looks, and as well as she commands the camera, I can't imagine that she can't carry a love story. But chemistry, that's a total X-factor, and these actors, in this film, don't have it, and that's really bad, because their love story is pretty much the sole point of the film. You know what, I kind of respect Lee for making the film so dependent upon the actors like that, because it takes guts. You can be the greatest director with a great screenplay and a great crew, and if you let yourself make a movie that is completely and utterly dependent on the acting for its success, that's an act of faith and bravery, and sometimes it ends with something like Scenes from a Marriage, and sometimes it's exactly the opposite.
Perhaps the most bothersome part of all this is that it's the second film in a year with almost exactly the same concept: innocent girl joins the Resistance, seduces the enemy so effectively that she starts to fall in love with him, kinky sex ensues. And Paul Verhoeven's Black Book was erotic and thrilling where Lust, Caution is neither. So basically, I'm saying that Verhoeven is at least temporarily a better filmmaker than Ang Lee, and I'm not at all happy to live in a world where that's the case.

You're such a tactical reviewer... you bring up Showgirls and we've all "did he really mention Paul Verhoeven in a review of an Ang Lee movie?" and then we trod along through a couple move paragraphs and BAM! There he is again, and we can't question it. Cagey, Mr. Brayton.
It devastates me to hear that you had so low an opinion of this film, because I left the theater having seen The Darjeeling Limited wishing for all the world that I'd seen this instead. Utter disappointment from two directors I tend to enjoy more in the same month would be too much. Luckily I can go see The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford instead, and by all accounts I'll not regret it.
- Cameron said...
i stopped reading this review after the first paragraph. i shall continue after i've seen the thing... thus far, though, you're the only person who's voiced such an opinion. i hate to say it, but i hope you're wrong.
To Cameron,
I can assure you, yes he is wrong.
There is sth called lust which is in the title and THEME of the movie that is way darker and murkier than love. By saying those 2 have no chemistry is LUDACROUS. It's a misconception that this film is a thriller, it's an intense intricate super masterful study of human psychology. Whenever I saw those 2 on the screen together it was suffocatingly dense in a twisted attraction not desired by both of them.
Actually I find using words 'romance', 'erotic' a disgrace to the film. There was not supposed to be a romance between them, an erosive battle of tangled emotions was more accurate. They don't want to fall in love, who had the time and the peace of mind for that?! It has a boiling realism of the psyche of what's going on in the minds of people then. The constant bombardment of uncertainly and lost of cultural identity during the hopeless occupation while required to put on a show of calm, refined decadence in calamity. The movie is also honestly true the what really happend to the original author who married a traitor and a player. You can get a hint her sentiments towards her exhusband's alter ego Mr Yee is calculatedly cold and cynical but raw with unrelentingly emotions.
If you study the sex scenes carefully, you wont be interested in deciding on whether the limbs were put right or whether they ar amateurish. Every single flicker of emotions and unsettling shift of feelings were written all over their faces, esp their eyes. If you choose to miss them, it's totally your loss.
I have never seen pairs of eyes as masterfully commanding of complicated and multifaceted emotions as those of Tong Wei, Tony Leung (a given almost) and Joan Chan. IT's to a point they really don't need lines.
Again, if you care to pay attention.
Esp Tony Leung, in the movie, he's Mr. Yee who just happens to look like Tony Leung, but the stoic apathy shown in his cold eyes are definitely not Tony's, it's scary where that came from.
- Cameron said...
i meant that no one i've talked to in person has felt the same way you did, tim... they all seem to like it. i've kind of stopped reading professional movie reviews, because they mostly spoil things.
- Tim said...
Will: What the hell do I know? I enjoyed Darjeeling Limited. YMMV.
Cameron: Why should you hate to say that you hope I'm wrong? I hope you think I'm wrong - the one thing I hope never to be is an advocate for making people dislike movies. But if you haven't heard any negative opinions about the film, you're reading different critics than I. It's a pretty evenly split response, from what I see.
Anonymous: I certainly agree that Leung, Tang and Chen are all good individually, and I agree with your point about the loss of cultural identity. But I still don't feel anything at all between Leung and Tang. And while you may well be right that I was nitpicking the sex scenes, it shouldn't be my responsibility to "not care" if the scenes are plausible: I was distracted by the staging and I shouldn't have been.
Generally: It is more than likely that I wanted the film to be so good that I overreacted in my disappointment, but I can hardly be said to have gone in not wanting to love the film.
- Jack said...
Probably only of interest to me, but I totally bought into Tim's conclusion that Ang Lee is cursed with every other film he makes. And I had high hopes that this movie would break the cycle. So I looked at reviews from FCS and IMDB, normalized them to 1 and plotted them as a function of year. Certainly the Hulk would bring a sawtoothyness to anyone's career, but there's a miss follows hit quality to Ang Lee's later career. He had a nice broad hump early on peaking around Sense and Sensibility (according to the numbers!). So I think it's just a function of Ang Lee becoming a more adventurous director in terms of the projects he chooses. But judge for yourselves: the plot
Tim, you seem to agree with the IMDB folks but are bucking the early trend of your FCS fellows. Go figure.
- nate said...
Without reading a word, I'd like to point out my boss described this as Black Book directed by Ang Lee. YUCK.
It's an insult to compare this movie to Black book. Black book is a movie that is servicing the audience, giving you what u expect and wanted in this genre. Love, caution is another couple stratosphere above that and the other end of the spectrum. It's totally the audience's fault going in expect a film about what they know bout WWII...or the sex scenes.
Why would Mr. Lee specifically announced to the world that American audience with their American mentalities and sentiments will not be able to appreciate the film even before the 'critic's get a bite into tearin his masterpiece apart? He has lived in the States long enough and with his ultra sharp observant eye, he knew how confined they ar and how overtly arrogant they ar as if they own what defines movie/art.
Mr. Lee set off the made his own interpretation of a Chinese literary phenom, his own personal interpretation of Chinese history and sentiments and sensibilities.
And this movie is more than a phenomenon in his target audience, the Chinese. It's hailed rightfully so as Mr. Lee's best work in that part of the continent where they should have a way way better understanding and appreciation of their own history and culture....and isnt it laughable that some lofty critics uses his own ruler of whether he enjoys it or not to measure whether this is an entertaining movie?
Mr Lee has personally said that for the American audience this movie will be like 'playing music to the cows' a Chinese idiom, and he's sucha genius, this is so true.
The gentle, quiet Mr. Lee will be giving you ar subtle courteous grin and you will never know what is the hidden meaning of that...and it's not like he cares.
- Cameron said...
jack, you're such a nerd. leave it to you to "normalize" imdb reviews and plot them as a function.
- Tim said...
Jack, if I were physiologically capable of having your babies, I would offer to do so in this moment.
- Cameron said...
this clearly illustrates the differences between me and tim, because i AM physiologically capable of having jack's babies, and do you see me offering to do so? no you do not.
what was this post about again?

Product Description
Joseph Beuys (1921–1986) – sculptor, painter, draughtsman, teacher, theorist and political activist – ranks among the most radical and influential artists to emerge during the second half of the twentieth century. An enigmatic figure whose complex imagination drew on his research across a wide range of themes – including mythology, zoology, botany and the spiritual theories of Rudolf Steiner – Beuys strove to establish a truly democratic approach towards artistic creativity, and prove that modern art need not be confined to the museum or the gallery.
This book illustrates how from Beuys's provocative 'Actions' of the 1960s and 1970s, to his ambitious environmental project 7000 Oaks – which would lead to the mass planting of trees in a series of events that continued after his death – he was never one to shun controversy. His anti-authoritarian approach gained him respect and notoriety in equal measures. As Antliff effectively demonstrates, the ecological and political issues that informed much of Beuys's art can be considered as relevant today as they were in his own lifetime.
About the Author
Allan Antliff holds the Canada Research Chair in Modern Art at the University of Victoria. He specializes in the history of modern art, contemporary art and anarchist studies. He is art editor for the UK-based journal Anarchist Studies and has published numerous art reviews and feature articles in journals such as Canadian Art Magazine, Fuse, C Magazine and Galleries West. Active in the North American anarchist movement since the 1980s, Antliff was a founding member of the Toronto Anarchist Free School (now Anarchist U).

Walter Pach (1883–1958) was an artist and critic. Pach wrote extensively about art, bringing an emerging modernist viewpoint to the American public.
Walter Pach had cultivated friendships with noteworthy artists in Paris, including Henri Matisse, Marcel Duchamp, and Constantin Brancusi. When he learned about the exhibition, Pach wrote to Arthur B. Davies and volunteered assistance. Pach soon became a critical force in making connections with European artists especially in Paris, shaping the vibrant nature of the exhibition. Along with Davies and Kuhn, he was able to bring together leading contemporary European and American artists. In late 1912 and early 1913, Pach acted as the agent of the Association of American Painters and Sculptors (AAPS) in Europe.
Pach exhibited ten pieces in the Armory Show including oil paintings and etchings.

I'm the only guy in my shop at school, health occupations, and one day when one group was doing a presentation on the endocrine system, specifically the gonads, they got onto the topic of their periods. Somehow it turned from that to how the woman from 19 kids and counting has different head hair and pubic hair, and then they were asking each other about their pubic hair, then for whatever reason the teacher said to the class "Hey look at derp". I was just sitting there having no idea what to say or do and she points me and my awkwardness out. Then one of them yelled from across the room "One day you're gonna have a wife, and she's gonna have pubic hair, and you're gonna love it!"

Buyer's guide to drills
A power drill is an essential home improvement tool. They can bore holes, loosen or tighten screws and even chisel away materials. Combine this with the ability to use different drill bits to work on a variety of materials, and you'll find that the right drill allows you to undertake multiple DIY tasks easily.
Our handy guide will explain everything you need to know about drills and will help you decide on the best one for you.
Before you begin
What will you be using the drill for?
Do you need a drill for everyday household tasks like putting up shelves or hanging pictures? Or will it be used as part of a bigger renovation, and need to drill larger holes through bricks or masonry? Most drills have multiple functions, so even if you need a tool that could be used for both scenarios, we have one that could suit you – but knowing a bit about your plans will help narrow down the search.
Another consideration is the length of a particular task. The size and weight of a drill can affect how long you can spend working on your project – if the tool is heavy and bulky you'll quickly tire of holding it. Make sure you pick a drill that is comfortable for you to handle and you'll be able to keep working for longer.
Will you need to move freely?
Some of our drill options will need to be plugged into the mains, and can therefore limit your movement. If you are going to use your drill all over your house, and even outside, you may wish to consider another option for your convenience.

Irish Day Celebration – Erin, TN
February 22, 2011 by Jim
March 19, 2011
Welcome to historic Erin, Tennessee. Cradled in the heart of Tennessee's natural wonder and magical charm, 200 jewel-like acres of Houston County are nestled quietly in a range of hills and valleys, unequalled in beauty by any part of the highland rim portion of the state. According to legend, Irish railroad workers who were reminded of the valleys, hills, hollows, and meadows of their homeland, Ireland, gave the name Erin to this small community. One night, the workers took a "wee drip too much" and let out the ancient rallying cry, "Erin Go Braugh." The name stuck and a celebration of Irish heritage and blessings takes place annually during the third week in March when everyone is "Irish in Erin."
We welcome you to Erin this March 19th for our Annual Wearing of the Green Irish Day Celebration. Come early have breakfast at the Presbyterian Church, watch the wee Leprechaun Parade followed by the Grand Parade. The Irish Day Queens and the crowned Fairest of the Fair will be looking glamorous as they ride cars and floats in the parade. Keep your eyes on the look out for the Shriners' and all their antics. See a variety of car club entries, The Leprechaun, and a Bag Pipe Band playing some Irish tunes as they march. The parade travels north to south down Main Street ending at the Court Square.
After the parade, stroll through the many vendor and exhibit booths, and enjoy a plethora of tantalizing food options. Entertainment by the U.S. Navy Band will be on the Square Stage. At the Regions Bank Corner Stage there will be some fast stepping, high kicking dancers, a Minnie Pearle impersonator, and a variety of Country & Gospel music playing all day. So join us this year and be Irish for the Day at the largest Irish Day celebration and parade in this area!

Sporting greats
Graeme Pollock, batsman supreme
SA third-wicket recordIn Adelaide, he and Eddie Barlow shared a South African third-wicket record partnership of 341, with Pollock hitting 175 and Barlow 201. South Africa won the test by 10 wickets to even the series. In the final test at the Sydney Cricket Ground, Pollock made 17. Not yet out of his teens, he had finished the series with 399 runs to his name at an average of 57. That was but a sign of things to come. Pollock missed two of three four-day tests against New Zealand immediately after the Australian tour, but returned for the third test to score 30 and 23. Next up for the young star was a five-test series against England in South Africa, and he started slowly with scores of five, nought and 12 before he finally found some form to make 55. From that point on, things improved markedly as Pollock scored three fifties and a century in his next six innings. Again he finished with a series average of just over 57.
SA in EnglandThe Springboks next headed for England for a three-test series, hoping to avenge the one-nil series loss they had suffered at home. The first test was drawn as Pollock scored 56 and five, but the next game belonged to the Pollock brothers. Graeme scored 125 out of the 269 that South Africa totalled in their first innings. Such was the quality of his contribution that famed cricket writer EW Swanton wrote:
"An innings was played here today by Graeme Pollock which in point of style and power, of ease and beauty of execution, is fit to rank with anything in the annals of the game." Such was the left-hander's dominance that when he was dismissed the total stood on just 162!
Substantial contributionThe South Africans next faced Australia in 1966/67 in a five-match test series at home. Pollock's contribution was once again substantial. In the first test, which South Africa won by 233 runs, he failed in the first innings, making only five, but his second visit to the crease netted him 90 runs. The Australians levelled the series in the second test despite a magnificent performance from Pollock. He made 209 out of a South African total of 353, but trailing by 189 runs on the first innings proved too big a deficit to overcome and the tourists won by six wickets, Pollock making only four in his second knock. Playing in Durban, the Springboks took a two-one series lead thanks to an eight-wicket victory in which the star left-hander contributed two and an undefeated 67. Rain saved the Australians from defeat in the fourth test during which Pollock made 22, but in the fifth test at his home ground of St George's Park he helped South Africa to a three-one series triumph with innings of 105 and 33 not out. His average for the series was 76.71.
Australia crushedSadly, Pollock was to play only one more test series before a ban on South Africa ended his international career, but in that series he played for a team that many regard as the best South African team of all time. They crushed Australia four-nil with the margin of victory increasing from test to test. This was not a bad Australian side. They had, in fact, just beaten India in India, taking the five-match series three-one. The previous season they had beaten a West Indies team that included Gary Sobers, Rohan Kanhai, Clive Lloyd, Charlie Griffith, Wes Hall and Lance Gibbs three-one in a five-test series. However, they were no match for the Springboks. South Africa won the first test, played in Cape Town, by 170 runs. Pollock made 49 and 50. In the second test in Durban, he and Barry Richards absolutely slaughtered the Australian bowling attack as South Africa totalled 622 for 9 declared in their first innings. Pollock's contribution was a then South African record of 274, while Richards made 140. Australia had no answers to the challenge and went down by an innings and 129 runs. Pollock scored 52 and 87 in the third test as South Africa cruised to a 307-run win. In the fourth test, a 323-run victory, he managed only one and four at his home ground in Port Elizabeth. Without the failures of his final test, his average would have been 64.26; as it was it finished at 60.97.
Premature endConsidering that Pollock was just 26 years of age when his test career was brought to a premature end, it is reasonable to suggest that he would have improved his average. What he could have achieved is a matter of speculation, but there must have been many bowlers that sighed with relief that they did not have to test themselves against the great left-hander. Pollock retired from the first-class game in the 1986/87 season at the age of 43. His career had begun 26 years earlier. He made 20 940 runs, including 64 centuries and 99 fifties - his conversion rate from fifties to hundreds an indication of his genius. He averaged 54.67. Limited overs matches were introduced some time after his career began, and he played only 112 innings in the shorter form of the game. Nonetheless, he tallied 4 656 runs at an average of over 50.
So much more than the statisticsThe statistics are impressive, but Pollock was so much more than the statistics indicate. He dominated bowlers, stroking the ball with such power that cover fielders would often only turn around once a cracking drive that had sped past them was five metres from the boundary. He made the game look simple and stunning at the same time. He was comfortable against any type of bowling and could bat on any surface. He was arguably the greatest left-handed batsman the world has yet seen. In February 2009, the genius of Pollock was recognised when he was inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame as one of the first 55 players to be honoured.

"Very easy, very delicious, but the acidic components of the sauce discolored my green beans. When I make it again, I will reserve the sauce and only drizzle it on after I plate up the servings of beans."
Reviewed Nov. 28, 2014
"I made these for Thanksgiving dinner last night and they were a big hit. The glaze adds a bright flavor to the beans. Easy enough to make on a weeknight, yet special enough for a dinner party. For added texture and color, garnish beans with some pomegranate seeds."
