Rahm Emanuel Is Super Mad About Chicago Being Dwarfed By New York City
"If it looks like an antenna, acts like an antenna, then guess what? It is an antenna."
The CTBUH said since the spire on top of One World Trade Center is a permanent feature of the building and has no communications equipment, it is not considered an antenna and so it is considered the top of the building.
This attracted some critics, notably Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel who railed against the decision.
The decision also attracted a bit of New York gloating. Here's New York City Deputy Mayor Howard Wolfson.

The eccentric Mortmain family have been rattling around in a vast, decrepit castle for years, gradually slipping into financial ruin. Mortmain is crippled by writer's block, while his beautiful second wife Topaz struggles to be a dutiful stepmother to Rose, Cassandra and Thomas.

Through her gloriously witty and shrewd diaries, she chronicles the trials of family life, the impact on their prospects of the arrival of a glamorous American family, and the agonies of falling in love for the first time.
A wonderfully quirky coming-of-age story, I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith, author of The Hundred and One Dalmatians is an affectionately drawn portrait of one of the funniest families in literature.

A personal injury lawyer works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as car accidents, botched surgery, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

Researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston have identified a new type of cell in mice that dampens the immune system and protects the animal's own cells from immune system attack.
This "suppressor" cell reduces the production of harmful antibodies that can drive lupus and other autoimmune diseases in which the immune system mistakenly turns on otherwise healthy organs and tissues.
The discovery, published in the September 16 issue of Nature (H Kim, et al.; Vol 467 in Letters), resulted from Lupus Research Institute funding to Harvey Cantor, MD, and colleagues on a separate immune system topic.
Now the discovery will be used to explore therapies that might control the hyperactive immune system in lupus. "These CD8+ T suppressor cells represent a potential new lever for lowering the strength of the immune response in autoimmune diseases such as lupus," Dr. Cantor said.
Staying Open to Discovery
Until now, scientists searching for cells involved in quieting the immune system response had focused their hunt on "regulatory CD4+ T cells"—also known as CD4+ Treg. Some of these cells have been shown to prevent harmful inflammatory diseases and infections.
In the Nature study, Harvey Cantor, MD, and his team reported that not just CD4+T cells but CD8+ T cells as well include a subset that helps dampen the immune response. Instead of reducing inflammation like their CD4 cousins, the CD8+ T regulatory cells ensure that the immune system doesn't produce antibodies that attack normal cells.
Lead author Hye-Jung Kim and colleagues made the discovery as they were winding up unrelated LRI-funded work into the role in autoimmunity of a protein found inside immune cells called osteopontin.
"Our LRI funds allowed us to carry out the early experiments that led to the definition of the CD8 suppressor cells." - Dr. Cantor.
"We were testing osteopontin's activity against a population of cells known as follicular T helper cells," explained Dr. Cantor. "We noted that the cells were responsive to osteopontin but also that they expressed what we knew to be the target of suppressor CD8+ T cells."
As next steps, Dr. Cantor and his team will investigate whether defective CD8+ T suppressor cells actually could be a cause of lupus and might serve as a powerful drug target for quieting the immune system response in autoimmunity.
About Lupus
Systemic lupus erythematosis is a chronic complex and potentially fatal autoimmune disease that affects more than 1.5-million Americans, mostly young women in their child-bearing years. Lupus causes the immune system to become hyperactive, forming antibodies that attack and damage the body's own tissues and vital organs including the heart, brain, kidneys and lungs. Lupus is a leading cause of cardiovascular disease, kidney disease and stroke among young women. As yet, there is no known cause or cure but the progress of recent discoveries is highly promising.
About The Lupus Research Institute
The Lupus Research Institute, (LRI) is the world's leading private supporter of innovative research in lupus, pioneering discovery to prevent, treat, and cure this complex and dangerous autoimmune disease. Founded in 2000 by families and shaped by scientists, the LRI champions scientific creativity and risk taking, mandating sound science and rigorous peer review to uncover and support only the highest ranked novel research. At the end of 2009, the Institute marked a breakthrough first decade – generating $100-million for bold and imaginative novel science in lupus – work that would not exist without the LRI's high risk, high reward strategy.

More and more automobile companies are focusing on body parts made of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP). However, manufacturing and repair costs must be further reduced in order to make CFRP more economical in use. Together with the Volkswagen AG and five other partners in the project HolQueSt 3D, the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) has developed laser processes for the automatic trimming, drilling and repair of three-dimensional components.
Automated manufacturing processes are the basis for ultimately establishing the series production of CFRP components. In the project HolQueSt 3D, the LZH has...
Reflecting the structure of composites found in nature and the ancient world, researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have synthesized thin carbon nanotube (CNT) textiles that exhibit both high electrical conductivity and a level of toughness that is about fifty times higher than copper films, currently used in electronics.
"The structural robustness of thin metal films has significant importance for the reliable operation of smart skin and flexible electronics including...
The nearby, giant radio galaxy M87 hosts a supermassive black hole (BH) and is well-known for its bright jet dominating the spectrum over ten orders of magnitude in frequency. Due to its proximity, jet prominence, and the large black hole mass, M87 is the best laboratory for investigating the formation, acceleration, and collimation of relativistic jets. A research team led by Silke Britzen from the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn, Germany, has found strong indication for turbulent processes connecting the accretion disk and the jet of that galaxy providing insights into the longstanding problem of the origin of astrophysical jets.
Supermassive black holes form some of the most enigmatic phenomena in astrophysics. Their enormous energy output is supposed to be generated by the...

Four Star Barcelona hotels
Most popular areas in Barcelona for 4-star hotelsFamed for its museums, organic Gaudi architecture and sandy beaches, Barcelona attracts visitors of every kind – and that's why there is accommodation to suit every taste and budget. If you're after a comfortable 4-star experience, you can find such pads spread out across the city, with a good number to found around the atmospheric Gothic Quarter, amid the squares and churches. The sleek grid-like streets of Eixample also harbor some plush 4-star hotels, with a cluster to be discovered within the Sant Antoni quarter of that district.
Top 4-star hotels in BarcelonaOne of the most striking hotels in Barcelona is Barcelo Sants. Designed to resemble a vision from the future, its gorgeous black and white aesthetics will make you feel like you've stepped into a kitsch sci-fi film, and its location over the train station makes it super convenient too. Equally stylish is Vincci Gala, a hotel boasting warm, rich colors in the guestrooms and a hip breakfast restaurant decked out in 60s-style retro decor. Then there's Hotel Ilunion Barcelona, boasting a sparkling rooftop swimming pool and impeccably designed guestrooms which ensure a comfortable stay.
Where to find the best restaurants in BarcelonaBarcelona is a foodie paradise, and simply by taking a wander through random streets, you'll stumble across interesting eateries serving everything from traditional tapas to casual Basque-style pintxos. The Gothic Quarter is known for its tucked-away restaurants where you can feast on fresh seafood, cured hams and traditional saffron-flecked paella. Up-scale dining experiences await in the Eixample district – a must for serious gastronauts – while over on the seafront there are family-friendly places where you can tuck into everything from grilled steaks to the hake fillets beloved of the Spanish.
The most popular things to do in BarcelonaA favorite attraction for many visitors and locals in Barcelona is the Picasso Museum. Cleverly displayed throughout a number of centuries-old palaces, the works of the Spanish master span his entire career, from youthful experiments to his earth-shattering Cubist works and beyond. Another cultural magnet is the Funacio Juan Miro, which not only displays masterpieces by the great Surrealist but works by young, current artists as well. Paying homage to the architectural gems of Gaudi is a must when in Barcelona, and the most obvious example is the towering Sagrada Familia, whose rippled spires loom across the city. Football fans will also want to make a pilgrimage to Camp Nou, the legendary home of FC Barcelona. Take the special tour and visit the on-site museum to really soak up the club's history.
Best ways to get around BarcelonaBarcelona may seem like a whole world within itself, but the various areas can be explored on foot, whether you're exploring the ancient warren of the Gothic Quarter or the streamlined streets of Eixample. The city boasts a clean and efficient metro network which is ideal for getting from A to B, while the street-level trams let you take in the sights as you're whisked across Catalonia's capital. If you want to get out beyond the urban center and see more of the rugged landscape, hiring your own car is a great option.

They're out of this world! Artist creates series of incredible portraits out of maps
- Ed Fairburn uses intricate details of maps to outline various human features
- He spends months crosshatching faces hidden within topographical features
An artist has created a series of out-of-this-world portraits out of maps.
Ed Fairburn uses everything from the roads of Cambridge to the hills of Wales to outline various human features.
Mr Fairburn, 23, originally from Norwich but now living in Cardiff, outlines the curve of an eyelash with a single street while a motorway can spread across large-scale maps creating the outline of the cheek or lips.
Intricate: Ed Fairburn creates portraits out of maps. The patchwork details provided by each map are blended together to form delicate facial features
The beauty of geography: Mr Fairburn spends months painstakingly crosshatching the faces hidden within the topographical features
He sometimes spends months painstakingly crosshatching the faces hidden within the topographical features.
Mr Fairburn said: 'I started on the map portraits in August last year following some previous work using wood to create the pattern of skin.
'I enjoy working on different surfaces and playing with the context within my work while looking at different places and situations so a simple map was the result of that.
'I have different rules for different maps. Simple things like road maps I use the roads as boundaries of tones. Most maps I won't draw over water as it's featureless but they add something else to it.
An eye for detail: Mr Fairburn works on one portrait. A single street can outline the curve of an eyelash and each motorway can create the outline of the cheek or lips
Patchwork: Mr Fairburn started on the map portraits in August last year following some previous work using wood to create the pattern of skin
Downcast: This woman looks like she's got the weight of the world on her shoulders
'When I need a map I go shopping in charity shops and old book shops and pick up all sorts from there. I unfold them in shop to see the whole thing but always have problems getting them back together.
'The shape of each map is the most important thing. A strong landscape format is no good they need to be in portrait orientation which there aren't many of.
'In front of me I can visualise framework and if I can work with it I buy it. I have so many and only end up using about 10 per cent of them so my studio is full.'
Mr Fairburn will usually spend a few weeks carefully constructing his portraits but sometimes works through the night to complete each piece within a few days.
Flexible: Sometimes Mr Fairburn sees a posture in the map but he says he can plot any figure on any map
Rules: Mr Fairburn says he uses roads as boundaries of tones. And mostly, he won't draw over water as it's featureless
Worlds apart: This piece features the same woman drawn on two maps with a different expression
He added: 'Sometimes I see a particular figure or posture in the map and work around that but it's flexible - I can pretty much plot any figure on any map.
'If I look at a map for long enough I will find a place to place the portrait. One of the things which appeals to me is how patterned they are - there is a huge network and is always a formula there.
'I was working on a piece from a French map and it brought back memories of a charity hitchhike across Europe a few years ago many of which I had forgotten about.
Memories: Mr Fairburn worked on a piece from a French map which reminded him of a charity hitchhike across Europe he did a few years ago
'You also get to discover a lot of weird place names - Germany certainly has a few.
'All the originals I am retaining ahead of an exhibition so at the moment I'm selling the prints which are really popular.
'I have loads of other ideas of what I want to do moving forwards but I'm pretty sure I will stick to the maps as well as I find it so enjoyable.'

How refreshing.
No trash talk. No staged squabbles. No pathetic sideshows.
Two classy, well presented, professional boxers, who will attempt to land thunderous punches to each other's heads, broke the predictable mould to let the stature of their fight take centre stage yesterday.
Boxing is far from clean, but Shane Cameron and Danny Green present a rare example of how the sport's profile and, indeed, perception, can be altered when humility replaces brash arrogance.
"I had to go get a new suit for this," a trim Cameron, who has shed four kilograms, said of his dapper attire that would make Sir Bob Jones proud. "It just shows the class of the fight. This is not two boofheads. This is two good fighters and respectful men outside the ring."
Unlike the tired mudslinging that usually surfaces at boxing events, mutual respect was clear as the contrasting pair spoke about their respective quests for the vacant IBO cruiserweight title in Melbourne next month.
"It's pretty difficult to hate someone you don't know. If I have to disrespect someone to fight, then I don't want to fight them," a slick looking Green agreed.
"Cameron is not a mug. I'm not a mug. A lot of people expect boxers to be fools. This is a good sport. It's also a thinking man's sport."
But, behind the suits and amicable public personas, there is subtle tension brewing.
Outside of the ring, Cameron and Green may be respectful, but that will soon be forgotten when the gloves come out.
"I don't need to dislike or have any animosity towards someone to knock them out cold," Green explained. "I'm a fighter, that's what I do. I'd knock my brother out if I had to."
This trans-Tasman clash has been two years in the making. Over that time, Green dodged Cameron's challenge, until now.
Timing is everything; Cameron feels he has gone full circle since dropping from heavyweight and first calling out the three-time Australian champion.
While the prevailing pre-fight messages were complimentary, Cameron delivered one straight-up warning.
After serving up a shock statement that made world-side waves - his stunning knockout of American gatekeeper Monte Barrett - Cameron believes he has evolved from a mere stationary fighter that relied on heart to get him through the war.
"This is the best I've felt in my career," Cameron proclaimed. "He probably should have taken this fight two years ago. This would have been a hard fight for me two years ago, based on my style then. I feel a lot more comfortable now. He's taking me after the biggest victory of my career."
Green doesn't shy away from the fact he is past his prime. The 39-year-old has indicated he will retire after this fight, but there is a sense of determination in his stare, one that says he has plenty to prove after losing two of his last three brutal battles.
"I'm older and he's younger...he's probably hitting his peak, but that excites me," Green said. "He's not taking me likely. He's not that silly. This is his shot at the big time."

Steven Pinker's "The Language Instinct: The New Science of Language and Mind" is a groundbreaking study of language's origins as an evolutionary adaptation. How do we 'know' how to speak? In his landmark book Stephen Pinker shows how language is part of our genetic inheritance rather than a cultural creation. From the DNA that builds our brains to the pontification of newspaper columnists, Pinker destroys the myths about language - that children learn to talk by copying their parents, that grammatical standards are in decline, that English defies logic - revealing the innate human instinct to communicate that we are all born with. "Reading Steven Pinker's book is one of the biggest favours I've ever done my brain ...highly accessible to the general reader yet at the same time seminal for professionals ...exhilaratingly brilliant". (Richard Dawkins). "An extremely valuable book, very informative, and very well written". (Noam Chomsky). "Brilliant...Pinker describes every aspect of language, from the resolution of ambiguity to the way speech evolved ...he expounds difficult ideas with clarity, wit and polish". ("Observer"). "Dazzling...Pinker's big idea is that language is an instinct, as innate to us as language is to geese. ..Words can hardly do justice to the superlative range and liveliness of Pinker's investigations". ("Independent"). Steven Pinker is a best-selling author and Professor of Psychology and Director of the Center for cognitive Neuroscience at MIT. Pinker has been awarded research prizes from the National Academy of Sciences and the American Psychological Association, graduate and undergraduate teaching prizes from MIT, and book prizes from the American Psychological Association, the Linguistics Society of America and the "Los Angeles Times". He is the author of "How the Mind Works", "The Blank Slate", "The Better Angels of Our Nature", and "The Language Instinct".

Steven Pinker is a best-selling author and Professor of Psychology and Director of the Center for cognitive Neuroscience at MIT.From Publishers Weekly:
A three-year-old toddler is "a grammatical genius"--master of most constructions, obeying adult rules of language. To Pinker, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology psycholinguist, the explanation for this miracle is that language is an instinct, an evolutionary adaptation that is partly "hard-wired" into the brain and partly learned. In this exciting synthesis--an entertaining, totally accessible study that will regale language lovers and challenge professionals in many disciplines--Pinker builds a bridge between "innatists" like MIT linguist Noam Chomsky, who hold that infants are biologically programmed for language, and "social interactionists" who contend that they acquire it largely from the environment. If Pinker is right, the origins of language go much further back than 30,000 years ago (the date most commonly given in textbooks)--perhaps to Homo habilis , who lived 2.5 million years ago, or even eons earlier. Peppered with mind-stretching language exercises, the narrative first unravels how babies learn to talk and how people make sense of speech. Professor and co-director of MIT's Center for Cognitive Science, Pinker demolishes linguistic determinism, which holds that differences among languages cause marked differences in the thoughts of their speakers. He then follows neurolinguists in their quest for language centers in the brain and for genes that might help build brain circuits controlling grammar and speech. Pinker also argues that claims for chimpanzees' acquisition of language (via symbols or American Sign Language) are vastly exaggerated and rest on skimpy data. Finally, he takes delightful swipes at "language mavens" like William Safire and Richard Lederer, accusing them of rigidity and of grossly underestimating the average person's language skills. Pinker's book is a beautiful hymn to the infinite creative potential of language. Newbridge Book Clubs main selection; BOMC and QPB alternates.
