PNC shrinks branch networkJanuary 27, 2014 11:57 PM
PNC Bank shrunk its branch network by 160 offices last year, the most of any bank nationwide except for Bank of America, an analysis released Monday by SNL Financial found.
Collectively, banks cut their branch total by 1,487 locations in 2013, SNL said, as the industry contended with persistently low interest rates, slow loan growth and escalating costs.
Lenders large and small "grappled with weak revenue growth and heavy [regulatory] compliance costs that are motivating them to reduce the fixed expenses tied to large branch networks," said SNL, a Charlottesville, Va.-based research firm.
PNC, Pittsburgh's dominant bank and the eighth biggest nationwide, closed 182 branches and opened 22 others across its 19-state footprint in 2013 for a net loss of 160, SNL said. Bank of America, the nation's second-biggest bank, had a net loss of 189 branches.
After the retrenchment, PNC had 2,880 branches compared with Charlotte, N.C.- based Bank of America's 5,200, SNL said.
SunTrust in Atlanta had the third-highest number of branch closings last year with a net loss of 123 offices, followed by Cleveland's KeyCorp with 60 and Capital One in McLean, Va., with 34.
In addition to shuttering or selling branches, many banks are redesigning their offices to make them smaller, SNL said.
Earlier this month, PNC CEO William Demchak told analysts in a conference call that the current number of branches "feels about right." But as customers continue to shift toward electronic banking with less of a need to go inside branches, the bank expects to continue to downsize existing offices, Mr. Demchak said.
PNC has been experimenting with lower-cost tellerless branches that are roughly half the size of traditional branches and rely on advanced-function ATMs to accept deposits and cash checks, such as the bank's e-branch in Bakery Square in Larimer that opened in July.

Triple 8 to present East Asian-inspired dance
Posted February 11, 2009; 03:11 p.m.
The group performs a fusion dance piece combining both modern lyrical artistry with traditional long sleeve elegance.
Triple 8 Dance Company, a student troupe dedicated to showcasing the art and dance of traditional and contemporary East Asia, will perform its fourth annual show at 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday, Feb. 12-14, in the Hamilton-Murray Theater.
This year's performance, titled "Unconditional," will feature East Asian-inspired dances from ribbon-dancing and martial arts to hip-hop and salsa. It will include a diversity of influences -- Vietnam, China, Korea and the United States, among others.
Tickets are $10 for general admission, $6 with a Princeton University ID and free for Tiger Tickets holders. They are available online through University Ticketing, by visiting the ticket office in the Frist Campus Center or by calling (609) 258-9220.
Extending the reach of Asian-inspired dance, this salsa piece puts a Latin twist on Asian hip-hop. Sophomore Karin Tsai (in pink dress) leads the troupe in this number.

Video feature: Visually capturing the installation of Ai Weiwei sculptures on campus
Posted August 16, 2012; 12:00 p.m.
How do you capture the work it takes to install 12 dramatic sculptures depicting the Chinese zodiac? When "Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads" by Chinese artist Ai Weiwei was set up on Scudder Plaza on the Princeton campus on July 30 and 31, a photography crew recorded a series of time-lapse sequences of the installation from more than 50 angles with three cameras, some of them firing simultaneously. In all, the cameras took 3,315 images.
Play the "Ai Weiwei sculpture installation time-lapse" video.
Editors selected several hundred of the images and compiled a three-minute video showing the progression from the empty plaza in front of Robertson Hall to the completed installation of Ai's bronze animal heads mounted on slender columns. Each piece is about 10 feet tall.
"Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads" has been shown around the world in cities including Sao Paulo, London, Los Angeles and Taipei. The sculptures have been loaned to the University by the family of an alumnus who wishes to remain anonymous. The sculptures, sponsored by the Princeton University Art Museum and the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, will be on display until Aug. 1, 2013.
For more information on the exhibition, go to Ai Weiwei at Princeton.

The beauty enhancing properties of milk have been known and documented for thousands of years. Legend has it that, in ancient Egypt, Queen Cleopatra regularly bathed in goat's milk to retain her youthful appearance. In the 21st century, milk remains a useful beauty ingredient that delivers nutrients and enzymes to improve the appearance of tired, aging, or irritated skin.
Milk is produced by mammals as the primary source of nutrition for their young. As a result, milk is packed with vitamins, minerals, protein, and carbohydrate, which are essential for the growth and development of a young mammal.
Topical application of milk brings out the natural beauty of skin. Milk contains lactic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells from the skin's surface and promoting the generation of fresh skin cells. Regular application of milk to the skin encourages the skin's natural regeneration process. AHAs in milk also help to reduce the depth of the fine lines and wrinkles caused by skin aging. AHAs slough off the dead skin cells that cling to the skin's surface and stimulate collagen production, which diminishes the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Whole milk is an effective skin conditioner. Fat molecules in whole milk nourish and hydrate the skin, leaving it soft and supple. Low-fat and skim milk have the fat content removed, meaning they lack the skin conditioning properties of whole milk.
Topical application of milk can lighten skin pigmentation by approximately half a shade. Results are temporary and milk must be applied to the skin regularly to maintain the results. Skin that has been irritated by sun exposure or by skin conditions such as eczema can be soothed by application of whole milk in the form of a compress.
The amino acids found in milk can nourish hair, which is made of protein. In particular, glutamine stimulates hair follicle growth, making milk protein a useful ingredient in hair thickening products.
Consumption of milk as part of a healthy diet can also improve the condition of the skin. Milk is a natural source of vitamin A, which helps to combat the effects of aging by stimulating cell regeneration. Milk is also high in zinc, which has been proven to improve the appearance of skin acne in clinical trials. However, in some individuals, milk can exacerbate acne outbreaks. In these cases, consumption of milk should be avoided.
The protein content of milk helps to maintain healthy body tissue. As milk can be obtained in low-fat and fat-free versions, it is a healthier source of protein than red meat, which contains saturated fat that can clog the arteries. Milk contains amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Tryptophan is an amino acid that has been shown to improve wellbeing and mood by stimulating the production of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin has a calming and relaxing effect. Tryptophan is thought to promote sleep. Perhaps this is one reason why warm milk makes an ideal bedtime drink.
Milk is high in calcium and vitamin D, both of which play a vital role in the development and maintenance of healthy teeth and bones. A range of B vitamins are also found in milk, including thiamine, riboflavin, and vitamin B12.
While the majority of milk consumed in developed countries comes from cattle, milk is also produced on a commercial scale from sheep, goats, water buffalo, yaks, donkeys, camels, and reindeer. Milk is used to produce dairy products such as yogurt, butter, cream, and cheese. The type of milk used to produce the dairy products can significantly affect their taste and texture.
Commercially produced milk is pasteurized prior to bottling. The pasteurization process kills bacteria and harmful microorganisms that occur naturally in milk. The pasteurization process reduces the amount of thiamine, vitamin B12, and vitamin C available from milk.
Milk contains a sugar called lactose, which can trigger symptoms of lactose intolerance. These include diarrhea, flatulence, abdominal bloating and cramping, nausea, and vomiting. Individuals with lactose intolerance should avoid consuming milk produced from animal sources. Possible alternatives for milk from animal sources are soy milk or rice milk, which do not contain lactose.
Individuals who experience lactose intolerance when consuming milk should carry out a patch test before using products containing milk.

A Generic Operational Simulation for Early Design Civil Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Benjamin Schumann, Jim Scanlan (School of Engineering Sciences University of Southampton); Kenji Takeda (Microsoft Research). Proceedings of the SIMUL 2011: The Third International Conference on Advances in System Simulation
Contemporary aerospace programmes often suffer from large cost overruns, delivery delays and inferior product quality. This is caused in part by poor predictive quality of the early design phase processes with regards to the operational environment of a product. This paper develops the idea of a generic operational simulation that can help designers to rigorously analyse and test their early product concepts. The simulation focusses on civil Unmanned Air Vehicle products and missions to keep the scope of work tractable.» 続きを読む

An integrated pedestrian behavior model based on extended decision field theory and social force model Hui Xi, Young-Jun Son (The University of Arizona); Seungho Lee (Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.). Proceedings of the 2010 Winter Simulation Conference.
The integrated pedestrian simulation model proposed in this paper allows us to develop a more realistic simulation of pedestrian behaviors at a shopping mall. In particular, consideration of vision of each individual allows us to mimic physical and psychological interactions among the people and the environment more realistically. Similarly, consideration of extended Decision Field Theory allowed us to represent human decision deliberation process. In addition, consideration of a rich set of attributes for the environment as well as people has allowed us to mimic a real shopping mall environment closely. The constructed simulation using AnyLogic software was utilized to conduct several experiments on performance of the mall and scalability of the proposed model.» 続きを読む

Originally native to the Eastern Asia area, the soybean plant is commonly grown in many locations throughout the entire world, including China, Japan, Taiwan, and Korea. Featuring trifoliate leaves, the soybean plant produces blossoms in hues of pink, purple, or lilac. The leaves, stems, and pods grown on this plant are finely covered with gray or brown hairs. The seeds, which have an oblong shape, grow in a hairy pod in clusters of 3 to 5 pods, each of which typically contain 2 to 4 seeds. The height of the soybean plant can vary from as short as 8 inches to as tall as 6.5 feet.
Glycine Soja is also known as soy acid and glycine soja oil. It is produced from the beans of the wild soybean plant, which is grown for its edible legumes. The beans are used for a wide variety of purposes including fulfilling dietary requirements for humans and animals. Soybeans are noted for their high protein content, making them a valuable source of vegetable protein. Immature soybeans are edible as well and are known as edamame. Dry soybeans consist of approximately 40% protein and 20% fat. Products made from soybeans are commonly included in processed foods. Nonetheless, a small percentage of soybean crops are actually ingested by humans.
To produce soybean oil, the soybeans are cracked, their moisture content is modified, and they are rolled into flakes. Next, the oil is extracted using commercial methods. Finally, refinement of the oil takes place and it is distributed. Glycine soja oil contains linoleic, triglycerides of oleic, and saturated acids.
Interestingly enough, the Ford Motor Company undertook extensive soybean research to the tune of $1,250.000 beginning in 1932. Pursuant to that research, soybean oil was utilized in the manufacture of automobiles during the painting process as well as to provide necessary fluid for the shock absorbers of the vehicles.
Often used in many skincare and cosmetic formulations, Glycine Soja is a natural ingredient. The consistency of Glycine soja is thick and viscous, making it an excellent thickening base for skincare products that adds to their rich, creamy texture. Rich in vitamin E, Glycine soja delivers excellent antioxidant capabilities, protecting the skin from the ravages of free radicals. Therefore, it is commonly utilized in skincare products designed specifically for mature skin to prevent damage to the skin's collagen and elastin protein fibers. As it does so, the youthfulness of the skin is protected and the development of wrinkles is retarded. Due to its antioxidant capabilities, Glycine soja is included in sun protection formulas to offset the damage created by exposure to the sun's harsh rays.
When Glycine soja is mixed with hydrogen, it forms hydrogenated soybean oil, a substance that is noted for its ability to help the skin replenish its stores of moisture. As such, hydrogenated soybean oil is an important ingredient in numerous moisturizing formulas and solutions designed for individuals with dry skin types. Hydrogenated soybean oil is used as an emollient, smoothing and softening the skin's texture and appearance. Hydrogenated soybean oil is also included as an occlusive slowing the evaporation of water from the skin for the purpose of acting as a skin-conditioning agent. Both hydrogenated soybean oil and Glycine Soja Oil perform as occlusives slowing the loss of moisture from the skin as they help to create a barrier on the surface of the skin.
Soy acid is used as a surfactant. It performs as a cleansing agent as well as acting as an emulsifying agent. Since Glycine soja offers emulsifying capabilities, it is commonly used in body washes and soaps because it cleanses oily skin effectively and gently. It is also found in bath oils due to its ability to infuse fresh life into the skin. Rich in vitamins, proteins, and minerals, Glycine soja creates a moisturizing action that produces softer, suppler skin. Its skin-conditioning capabilities help to firm the skin, restores its natural resistance to free radicals and unnecessary early aging.
The Food and Drug Administration has listed soybean oil, soybean glycerides, and soybean fatty acids on the list of acceptable, indirect food additives. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has also assessed the safety of soybean oil, soy acid, and hydrogenated soybean oil and determined them to be safe for use in products made for personal care usage as well as for use in cosmetic formulas.

Point Loma Nazarene University has been named one of the City of San Diego's "Recyclers of the Year." The winners of the 20th Annual Waste Reduction and Recycling Awards were honored April 12 at the San Diego Zoo.
The awards are given to recognize businesses and nonprofit organizations that help reduce waste, especially waste that would have otherwise ended up at the Miramar Landfill.
PLNU was honored alongside other environmentally savvy organizations such as the New Children's Museum, Sea World, the San Diego Zoo Global, Qualcomm, Albertson's, and the San Diego Padres.
Among PLNU's many green efforts are a solar panel system providing nearly a megawatt of photovoltaic solar power; solar powered hot water heating in the residence halls; wide scale recycling; food waste composting; water-saving efforts such as dual-flush toilets, waterless urinals, water-saving shower switches, filtered water "hydration stations" on campus where students can fill up reusable water bottles; and educational and awareness building efforts such as a minor in sustainability and an annual "Creation Care Week."
"We are honored to be one of San Diego's Recyclers of the Year," said campus sustainability coordinator Alexandria Bennett. "Caring for God's creation is one of the university's core values, and we are committed to continually striving to be wise stewards of the earth and its resources."
The Fermanian School of Business of Point Loma Nazarene University named its "Student-Entrepreneur of the Year" at the annual Entrepreneur Enrichment Program (EEP) Banquet on Wednesday, April 4, 2012.
The team of 2011 alum Nitasha Stiritz and current seniors Arthur Cachero and Blake Harrison received the top entrepreneur award for their innovative 'Launch Pad' business plan, which will produce a web-based application to communicate critical firm startup information via enhanced video in 1-2 minutes to a prospective investor or backer. The Launch Pad product will allow small startups to utilize quickly and efficiently tools that typically have been available to only larger firms. From the Entrepreneur Enrichment Endowment, created concurrently with the launching of the EEP in 2007, a cash award of $2,500 was provided to the Launch Pad team.
Receiving $1,000, including the $500 Dave and Dorothy Latter Free Enterprise Award, was senior business student Matt Joslyn for his project, "Plane & Simple Tours." His business plan is to provide students with inexpensive trips and services that cater toward their liking. By equipping all travelers with the basic tools to create their own unique adventure at low cost, he plans to attract a broader range of travelers. The four other participating projects each received smaller cash awards. In addition, Phil Herbig, chief financial officer of WesPak Sales in Dinuba, Calif., received the "Inspirational Mentor Award" chosen by his peers and entrepreneurs, and the Plane and Simple Plan he co-mentored with Robert Harp and Stephen Miller will receive a $15,000 comprehensive social media marketing plan provided by the San Diego-based firm ZBiz, founded by PLNU alum Zach Johnson.
"Over the past five years, I have had the privilege of being a mentor and a friend to young men and women who have a vision for the future," said Herbig. "I have found the mentor process to be reciprocal as these young men and women force me to think outside the box."
The banquet represented the completion of the fifth year of PLNU's Entrepreneur Enrichment Program. The business plans this year represented a diversity of for-profit and non-profit interests from students and recent graduates from both the undergraduate and MBA programs at PLNU. Each fall semester, students are encouraged to present their business ideas in early stage form at the EEP Exposition, where the projects are evaluated by experienced entrepreneurs, including past EEP participants. Continuing projects were then assigned a team of mentors comprised of three, experienced business professionals, including the past PLNU Entrepreneurs of the Year, who provided counsel and advice to the projects and entrepreneurs. The EEP is unique in that it allows both undergraduate students from all disciplines and also MBA students to participate in the same entrepreneurial program.
EEP co-founder and mentor Craig Van Hulzen, CEO of Van Hulzen Asset Management in Folsom, Calif., reflected on the mentoring process. "The extraordinary effort of the student participants, using their free time to build on a dream, to work with peers, willing to learn from mentors, and to create opportunity for themselves is highly commendable. It speaks well of their character, their families, and PLNU's Fermanian Business School. These are the qualities of successful entrepreneurs." All of the plans were privately reviewed and then scored by a group of twenty mentors and EEP judges, and the results were kept confidential until the announcement at the banquet on Wednesday night. Additional information on the EEP and related activities of the Fermanian School of Business and the Fermanian Business & Economic Institute at Point Loma Nazarene University can be found at www.pointloma.edu/Fermanian.
The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) recently announced reaccreditation for PLNU's School of Education (SOE) and all of its credential programs. "This continuing accreditation reflects the high quality of PLNU's education programs and credentials as we develop and serve education professionals," said Dr. Bob Brower, PLNU president. "Congratulations to Dr. Gary Railsback [SOE dean] and all the members of the School of Education for a job well done!" PLNU's School of Education offers undergraduate degrees, master's degrees, credentials, and certificates. The programs are designed to help students grow professionally and personally, resulting in the capacity to think critically, engage issues with their minds and hearts, and make decisions that make a difference. All this happens within the context of a highly supportive Christian community, where faculty members serve as mentors. The SOE's district partnerships help serve local education communities and PLNU education students at the same time. Graduate program regional centers are located in Arcadia, Bakersfield, the Inland Empire, and San Diego (Mission Valley). PLNU is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and the School of Education credential and certificate programs are accredited by the CTC. PLNU's School of Education is also a candidate for accreditation by NCATE.
Freshman Emmy Merrill is a PLNU student to watch. As a young, breakout, competitive and championship surfer, she's on fire.
From February 19-25, 2012, Emmy was in Peru where she competed in the ISA Stand Up Paddle and Paddleboard Championship against women of different ages from many different countries. She won first place.
She went into the competition as an 18-year-old champion surfer who has won highly competitive events, as well as national titles for her high school surf team in San Clemente. She's what Surfline.com calls "the quintessential water-woman," and we were able to get an interview with her about her surfing career and championship win at ISA.

Point Loma Nazarene University is helping the San Diego Foundation cast a vision for the future of the greater San Diego region.
PLNU is a participating partner in the foundation's Our Greater San Diego Vision program that is surveying San Diego residents to help create a plan for San Diego's future. In addition, PLNU's director of community outreach and governmental relations, Megan Ekard Collins, is one of only 100 people selected from the San Diego region to sit on the Our Greater San Diego Vision council as an ambassador.
"We want to plan for San Diego's future to help ensure that future generations can enjoy America's Finest City as much as we do today. We expect 1.3 million more residents in San Diego County in the next 40 years, so now is the ideal time to cast a vision for the way we want our community to grow," said Ekard.
Survey participants voice their opinions on issues such as education, jobs, housing, the environment, and future amenities such as parks, sports and entertainment venues, libraries, museums, and the arts.
Thus far, PLNU is reporting a survey rate that is eight times higher than most other participating organizations.
PLNU encourages students, faculty, staff, administrators, alumni, parents, and friends to participate in the survey and help shape our community's future. Please visit www.ourgreatersandiegovision.org/PLNU before Jan. 31.
Point Loma Nazarene University had the 3rd highest pass rate in California on the 2010 certified public accountant (CPA) exam, according to the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA). PLNU was number one among private and Christian universities. PLNU graduates also had the highest average score on the exam. "I am pleased and proud of our PLNU accounting alumni," said accounting professor Carl Hammond. "It is rewarding to see their hard work pay off, so they are able to build valuable careers. It is an honor to teach at a university that recruits this caliber of students." The University of California, Berkeley ranked number one with a 60.2 percent pass rate while UCLA took the second spot with 58.6 percent. PLNU was just a tenth of a point behind UCLA with 58.5 percent. Rounding out the top five were the University of Southern California and Chapman University.There were 57 schools in California ranked in NASBA's report.

Video feature: 'A Year in Review: 2012-13'
Posted June 27, 2013; 12:00 p.m.
The academic year at Princeton starts in the warmth of September as new and returning students come to campus full of aspirations. Over the next several months, the campus is a hive of activity, as students study, pursue extracurricular interests and build friendships. In June, under the shady trees in front of Nassau Hall, the year comes to a close as new graduates leave campus and head out into the world.
Play the "A Year in Review: 2012-13" video.
This video is a celebration of the 2012-13 academic year, with highlights bookended by fall's Opening Exercises and spring's 266th Commencement.
It spotlights the year's key events, including annual traditions such as Cane Spree, Clash of the Colleges and graduation ceremonies, and celebrates athletic championships, arts performances, conferences and festivals. It captures historic moments that will forever define this unique year, most notably the retirement of President Shirley M. Tilghman and the naming of her successor, Christopher L. Eisgruber.
The video is set to a soundtrack with music from a Taiko drumming class, the Princeton University Band and the Princeton University Orchestra.

What is the CVV?
CVV stands for Credit Card Validation (or Verification) Value. Visa has a version of the CVV to reduce merchant risk in Card-Not-Present transactions (like Internet, telephone or mail-order). The CVV code adds assurance that the consumer placing the order has access or physical possession of the credit card itself. The CVV is a 3 digit number embossed or imprinted on the reverse side of Visa cards.
Where do I find the CVV?
For Visa the 3 digit CVV number is printed on the signature panel on the back of the card immediately after the card's account number.

Video: Laura Forese: Engineering after Princeton
Posted January 4, 2010; 04:12 p.m.
Laura Forese discusses how communicating openly at all levels helps her lead the New York-Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center. View more alumni videos.
Video Closed Captions
My name is Laura Forese. I'm Class of '83, civil engineering and operations research.
I'm currently the chief medical officer and chief operating officer at New York-Presbyterian Weill Cornell.
At New York-Presbyterian, I'm responsible for the Weill Cornell campuses.
It's about a thousand beds on two different sites, and I have the honor of essentially
making things go. The chance to talk to patients and to staff really at all levels is one of
the most important things that I do. My assistant would tell you that she often can't find me
because my favorite thing is to escape and just wander around the institution.
Right after I left Princeton, I went immediately to medical school, and there it was pretty
clear to me that I wanted to be a surgeon. The field I ended up in is orthopedic surgery,
where my engineering background was a tremendous asset. Matthew Larson was a little boy that
I knew well who was diagnosed with a brain tumor at age two, and he fought a valiant
effort for about five years, but ultimately he succumbed. His family started the Matthew
Larson Foundation for Pediatric Brain Tumor Research. Currently, I'm chair of the medical
advisory committee. We've been able to raise millions of dollars for this foundation, and
we're delighted to be able to sponsor cutting-edge research. I hope that we'll be able to cure
this disease so that no children, no family will be affected in the same way that I've
seen the Larson family affected. I think surgery has a lot of parallels that I can draw on
when I think about leadership. As a surgeon, you are the captain of the ship, but you are
not there alone, so you need to have a team with you. You need to delegate, otherwise
you won't be successful; that patient won't make it. Now, you have got to be transparent
and explain to people what you need done, because no one can understand completely what
you, as the surgeon, are thinking. But you have got to be willing and able to be decisive.
You know, in an O.R., the patient's not going to make it if you just stand there. And similarly,
as a leader, sometimes you don't have all the information that you want. You have got
to be willing to say, "I am going to go with the best information that I have. I am going
to make the best decision that I can. And if we were wrong, we'll admit it and we'll
fix it, but we won't just stand there." My name is Laura Forese, and
I'm a Princeton Engineer.

If you're one of those people who just loves to barbecue, we've got good news: The grills category continues to improve, with models that are quicker to start, better at retaining heat and easier to clean than ever before. While gas grills are simpler to use and charcoal grills are better at imparting that delicious barbecued taste, recent innovations are blurring the distinction between the two types as now even gas grills have options for adding flavor through smoke boxes and proprietary technology, such as Weber's "flavorizer" bars.
But grilling isn't just a matter of tossing a hunk of meat on the grill. Most grills are very versatile cooking tools that can slow cook a rack of ribs using indirect heating methods as effectively as they can sear a steak over direct heat. Many grills can also do double duty as smokers, operating at very low temperatures for a very long time to cook foods to mouth-watering perfection. The best grills, no matter what type they are, should be easy to operate and clean, with a steady, even heat that is not prone to those flare-ups that can ruin dinner in a flash.
Gas grills heat quickly and are easy to use. They also make it easier to control the cooking temperature because gas grills have knobs that are more like an oven's. Many gas grills also have temperature gauges so you know when it's at the optimal temperature. Gas grills are versatile and can be used for both direct and indirect cooking, just like a charcoal grill -- except instead of fiddling with moving charcoal around, you just have to turn off the heat on one side for indirect. You can also buy smoker boxes that hold wood chips and can be set on the flames to impart a more traditional barbecue flavor to your food. Larger gas grills usually have two cooking surfaces -- primary and secondary. The primary cooking surface is directly over the flames, while the secondary rack is above the primary rack and is used to keep foods warm or to cook foods that you may traditionally cook in an oven, such as corn or bread wrapped in foil, while your meat cooks. You pay for all that convenience, though, because gas grills generally cost more. You can find models priced as low as about $150, but most gas grills start at a few hundred dollars and go up into the thousands.
Charcoal grills are the pick of many barbecue enthusiasts. Charcoal takes longer to light than a gas grill and controlling a charcoal grill's heat isn't as simple as turning a gas grill's temperature dial. But enthusiasts say the extra trouble is worth it for the flavor that cooking over charcoal imparts. Charcoal grills tend to be less expensive than gas grills, too, with basic models starting at less than $100 and most premium units topping out at $300 or $400. Many charcoal grills are built to last for years or even decades.
Smokers maintain a low, slow temperature better than grills. Most people think of smokers as strictly for large, tough cuts of meats like ribs or brisket, but, in fact, smokers are quite versatile -- you can even make pizza in a smoker. Many charcoal grills can also double as smokers, but they usually take more tending than a dedicated smoker because they don't maintain the temperature as well. Many grilling aficionados say they never knew what they were missing until they upgraded to a dedicated smoker.
Portable grills are available in both charcoal and gas models. These are great choices for camping, tailgating or picnics -- or if you just have a limited outdoor space and need a small grill. Charcoal portables are available for less than $100, while gas portables usually run between $150 and $400. In spite of their smaller size, portable grills should offer a relatively large cooking surface so you don't have to grill too many batches to produce a family meal.
Because grills use fire or gas, it's not surprising that some models would end up on the Consumer Product Safety Commission's list of recalled products. If you're planning to buy a used model or shop at an outlet rather than a conventional retailer, it pays to check the CPSC list before buying. Also, it goes without saying that grills get hot on the outside when they're being used for cooking. Keep children and pets away from them and take basic safety precautions like wearing oven mitts and being careful not to touch hot surfaces.
If you live in an apartment or other residence that does not allow traditional grills, or if you're just not comfortable with fire, be sure to check out our separate report on electric grills. There we recommend safe, easy-to-use grills that can be used indoors or out, as well as a few that double as sandwich makers or griddles.
There are a lot of resources for finding grill reviews of every type. ConsumerReports.org was helpful in our search for the best gas grill because they have an exhaustive roundup of dozens of models of grills in every size, while Cooks Illustrated compares charcoal grills. We also turned to expert reviews by barbecue professionals and enthusiasts in articles and on sites dedicated to grills and grilling, such as AmazingRibs.com and BBQGuys.com.
To get a feel for how each grill operates in real-world, long-term use, we also consulted thousands of owner reviews from users at retail sites, such as Amazon.com, Walmart.com, HomeDepot.com and Lowes.com. The result is our picks for the top grills and smokers for any lifestyle or budget.

Dear Malkin:
I think it's time to check yourself. If this post does not get you kicked of covers for good I don't know what will.
Forget the penalty box. Uttering threats, that are very specific and may have a possibility of truth is a criminal offence in Canada.
"Really guy", on a betting forum, you get this worked up. I cannot imagine what your personal life must be like.
Malkin if your winning boat loads of cash and what you say is true, you would not be paying any mind to what anybody says, well I sure wouldn't.
But I highly suspect you are being totally truthful and it sounds like you are getting a little frustrated. Malkin if you stop trying to be somebody your not, you may find some peace with yourself and some respect from everyone else.
Malkin the more you talk to defend yourself the more unrealistic the stories become. Now you possess super human strength that takes 9 trained law enforcement officers to take down.
What is next Malkin your going to tell us Superman is for real and your him.
hey roughem... whats the best online sportsbook in your opinion
If you are a parlay better you may want to try 5Dimes as they let you do open parlays, which means you can start a parlay and leave open spots and fill them as the days go by using any sports. But I would stick to straight bets and play the odd parlay. Feel free to ask any other questions and I hope this helps you out.

Building a Simulation Model to Characterize Interacting Workflows and to Explore New Workflow Alternatives Janet E. Wedgwood, Jay Ritchie, Nadya Belov, et al.
Sortie Generation Rate (SGR) is an important metric for air dominance. Lockheed Martin must demonstrate that the Air System can fly the sorties during an allotted time and deliver the capability to the war fighter. Aircraft turnaround time- the time between when the aircraft touches down, refuels, rearms, and completes inspections in order to release the aircraft, to aircraft wheels up - plays an important role in achieving the SGR requirement.» Lire plus
Evaluation of outbreak response immunization in the control of pertussis using agent-based modeling Alexander Doroshenko, Weicheng Qian and Nathaniel D. Osgood
Pertussis control remains a challenge due to recently observed effects of waning immunity to acellular vaccine and suboptimal vaccine coverage. Multiple outbreaks have been reported in different ages worldwide. For certain outbreaks, publichealth authorities can launch an outbreak response immunization (ORI) campaign to control pertussis spread. The authors developed an agent-based model to investigate effects of outbreak response immunization campaigns targeting young adolescents in averting pertussis cases. The experience proved that ABM offers a promising methodology to evaluate other public health interventions used in pertussis control. The authors also identified the strong need for further research into application of modeling to further our understanding of pertussis epidemiology.» Lire plus
Falling Off the Cliff? Increasing Economic Security for Low Income Adults as the Safety Net Shrinks Joshua D. Hawley, Julie A. Maurer
The public assistance system is supposed to offer a bridge between poverty and self-sufficiency. Families receive benefits such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to soften the impact of loss of income. The programs are intended to be limited in duration and provide a very modest amount of financial support. Some families are fortunate to also receive a housing voucher or a child care subsidy to help offset basic expenses. Eligibility for benefits varies by program and is based on different criteria, most of which are linked to personal income. This study asks: what happens when benefits are cut before individuals reach economic stability? This is frequently called the "benefits cliff."» Lire plus
Agent-based Analysis of Picker Blocking in Manual Order Picking Systems: Effects of Routing Combinations on Throughput Time Ralf Elbert, Torsten Franzke et al
Order picking is one of the most labor- and time-consuming processes in supply chains. Improving the performance of order picking is thus a frequently researched topic. Due to high cost pressure for warehouse managers the space in storage areas has to be used efficiently. Hence narrow-aisle warehouses where order pickers cannot pass as well as several order pickers working in the same area are common. This leads to congestion which is in this context referred to as picker blocking. This paper employs an agent-based simulation approach to investigate the effects of picker blocking in manual order picking systems with different combinations of routing policies for three order pickers in a rectangular warehouse with narrow-aisles.» Lire plus
Spare Part Management in a Testing Workshop Xiaobing Li, Kaike Zhang, Zhibo Tan
Spare part management is essential to many organizations, since excess inventory leads to high holding costs and stock outs can greatly impact operations performance, but it is a major problem in the testing work shop in Robert Bosch China Diesel (RBCD) Wuxi. The workshop is used to test the functionality of the injectors, such as those statistics for pressure, electro conductivity, etc. After implementing the automated tower storage in the work shop, the workshop supervisor applied monthly order policy to purchase spare parts, which means at the end of each month, he/she will check the consumption of last month's spare parts and make orders according to that data. However, in order to control the inventory of spare parts and achieve minimum total inventory cost of those parts, the (Q, r) model was suggested to make the monthly order, realizing the goal of maximizing the net profit of injectors.» Lire plus
Agent-based Simulation of the Diffusion Dynamics and Concentration of Toxic Materials From Quantum Dots-based Nanoparticles Datu Buyung Agusdinata
Due to their favorable electrical and optical properties, quantum dots (QDs) nanoparticles have found numerous applications including nanomedicine. However, there have been concerns about their potential environmental impacts. The objective of this study is to develop an agent-based simulation model for predicting the diffusion dynamics and concentration of toxic materials released from QDs. Reaction kinetics is used to model the stability of surface capping agent particularly due to oxidation process.» Lire plus
Simulation Model to Control Risk Levels on Process Equipment Through Metrology in Semiconductor Manufacturing Alejandro Sendón, Stéphane Dauzère-Pérès, Jacques Pinaton
This paper first presents a simulation model implemented to study a specific workcenter in semiconductor manufacturing facilities (fabs) with the objective of controlling the risk on process equipment. The different components of the model, its inputs and its outputs, that led us to propose improvements in the workcenter, are explained. The risk evaluated in this study is the exposure level in the number of wafers on a process tool since the latest control performed for this tool, based on an indicator called Wafer at Risk. Our analysis shows that measures should be better managed to avoid lack of control and that an appropriate qualification strategy is required.» Lire plus
Towards a Virtual Factory Prototype Sanjay Jain, David Lechevalier
A virtual factory should represent most of the features and operations of the corresponding real factory. Some of the key features of the virtual factory include the ability to assess performance at multiple resolutions and generate analytics data similar to that possible in a real factory. One should be able to look at the overall factory performance and be able to drill down to a machine and analyze its performance. It will require a large amount of effort and expertise to build such a virtual factory. This paper describes an effort to build a multiple resolution model of a manufacturing cell. The model provides the ability to study the performance at the cell level or at the machine level. The benefits and limitations of the presented approach and future research directions are also described.» Lire plus
Hybrid Simulation in Healthcare: New Concepts and New Tools Sally C. Brailsford
Until relatively recently, developing hybrid simulation models using more than one simulation paradigm was a challenging task which required a degree of ingenuity on behalf of the modeler. Generally speaking, such hybrid models either had to be coded from scratch in a programming language, or developed using two (or more) different off-the-shelf software tools which had to communicate with each other through a user-written interface. Nowadays a number of simulation tools are available which aim to make this task easier. This paper does not set out to be a formal review of such software, but it discusses the increasing popularity of hybrid simulation and the rapidly developing market in hybrid modeling tools, focusing specifically on applications in health and social care and using experience from the Care Life Cycle project and elsewhere.» Lire plus
Towards a Guide to Domain-specific Hybrid Simulation Anatoli Djanatliev, Reinhard German
The advantages of combined simulation techniques have been already frequently discussed and are well-covered by the recently published literature. In particular, many case studies have been presented solving similar domain-specific problems by different multi-paradigm simulation approaches. Moreover, a number of papers exist focusing on theoretical and conceptual aspects of hybrid simulation. However, it still remains a challenge to decide, whether combined methods are appropriate in certain situations and how they can be applied. Therefore, domain-specific user guides for multi-paradigm modeling are required combining general concepts and best practices to common steps. In this paper, we particularly outline three major processes targeting to define structured hybrid approaches in domain-specific contexts, and we focus on some practical issues aiming to a sustainable model development. Finally, an example hybrid methodology for problems in healthcare will be presented.» Lire plus
