2004 Nissan Armada LE 4WD 4dr SUV (5.6L 8cyl 5A)
I was looking at the Denali, Escalade,
and the Armada. IMHO, the LE Armada
is the best value in this segment.
The Infiniti version was nice but had
bells and whistles (and a higher
sticker) I don't need. The
engine/tranny combination is perfect.
And, the V-8 sounds like a V-8
should. Though some have thought the
suspension to be a bit firm, my wife
likes the fact this SUV does not
wallow in turns like other big SUVs
tend to do. It really does
drive "smaller than it looks." The
controls/gadgets are less complicated
and easier to master than I thought
they would be. I've already added
mudflaps and taken off the roof rack.
Size (in particular, the space for 2nd
row passengers is great), security,
safety, power, and value relative to
the competition. This SUV looks
modern and cutting edge while the
competition (e.g., Escalade,
Tahoe/Yukon, Denali, Expedition) are
looking dated.
The LE is well optioned, but should
come standard with full mudflaps and
floor mats. Needs locking gas cap
access, underhood lamp, and the chrome
grill should be real (not plastic) for
longevity. I made sure I got one of
the updated models (June+ build) with
no dash rattles.
2004 Nissan Armada SE Off-Road 4WD 4dr SUV (5.6L 8cyl 5A)
I love this vehicle. I have owned mine
for about 7 months now and have enjoyed
every minute of it. The only thing
that I have had going on is that there
seams to be some noticable squeeking
when going ove rrough turain. Other
than that it has been perfect.
I purchased an Armada in
December....one of the first produced,
and liked the vehicle but was
disappointed by build quality.ie
squeeks, rattles, loose pieces fit and
finish, and it just did not feel right.
For a variety of reasons I trades it in
on another one lasy week and the
difference is night and day. Fit finish
excellent, tight, no rattles and is a
joy to drive. The navigation system is
easy to use and a must and the DVD
system is great on trips. I am thrilled
with the second one and I attribe that
to quality improvements at the plant
and the Infiniti QX56 has come on line
there snd they were forced to deal with
quality issues. The second car is great
Technology package, DVD System, Power
remote liftgate,
Satellite radio is still hard to get
and shpuld be built into the system as
an add later if desired. locking fuel
door would be nice
The Armadie is GREAT overall. As I pass
by the measley Ford, Chevy, Dodge and
Toyota products, I wonder "What were
they thinking?" The Armadie, with it's
robust and brute strength appearence,
demands attention on the spot!!! I had
to stop suddenly one day, on a wet
road, it handles the best I've ever
driven. The safety is great! People go
out of their way to look at this
vehicle!!! I shine my nails while I
drive!! I can fit almost anything
inside it, while the 3rd seat lies
flat. It tow's wonderfully. Not one bad
word could I say. I will own this
vehicle for the rest of it's days. I
will not trade or sell for any other
kind, unless it is just a newer Armada.
The interior is so spacious that the
kids can say "Dad, can you hear me
now?" It's great, especially when their
hungry haha. My wife enjoys the heated
leather and memory seats, the space,
the status, she thinks she's a queen
and calls it hers! The kids love the
space,rear air control.
Thoughts:Maybe a powered 3rd row seat,
to lay flat. Option to where you
have an move the DVD player to the
console in the 2nd row seating as well.
Could have like a removable shelf
behind the 3rd seat to set things on,
while the floor part is full. I am a
very satisfied customer well.
Fun to drive - Easy to operate
Bold look - Lot's of leg room

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY).
The Interview process is too slow . They take 1 round in 3 weeks and further update you the feedback after 10 days and that too when you follow-up with them. I gave 2 rounds of interview after the second round I was told after multiple follow-ups that they can't proceed further . I don't mind a negative feedback but atleast negative/positive they should care to provide feedback after the interview.
Interview Questions
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at PwC (Los Angeles, CA) in January 2016.
MBA Summer Internship - 2 interviews back to back - all behavioral questions. One was incredibly cold & all but told me I wasn't good enough. It was very confusing as to why I was even asked to interview if I was just going to be treated so badly. All the employees seemed very pleased with themselves but I couldn't discern what made them so spectacular. After interviewing with all of the Big 3 and the Big 4, PwC was 100% the most negative and pointless interview process I'd been through. If this is how they treat candidates, where we're interviewing them and they should be putting their best face forward, it makes me question how they treat their employees.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at PwC.
PwC's hiring process is comparable to other consulting firms. I was invited in by a current employee who saw me as an "opportunity hire." This meant meeting senior management and potential coworkers, getting the thumbs up, sharing salary/bonus expectations and being hired. It was a positive experience overall and well done by the company leaders at the time.
Interview Questions
I said what I wanted and they agreed. Very simple process.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (Minneapolis, MN) in November 2014.
Pretty informal. Had an initial phone screen with a HR recruiter and then an in person interview with two managers and a partner. The interview style was pretty casual. Asked about my background, experience, etc. and then they explained what the role would be like and what the job expectations were. After the interview, I believe I heard back within a few days that I had the role.
Interview Questions
Is this helpful? The community relies on everyone sharing – Add Anonymous Interview Review
I interviewed at PwC in August 2014.
Pretty straight forward. Mostly behavioral questions. I didn't get a call back and don't really know why, but I think they are definitely different from the other Big 4 firms in that the first interview wasn't technical at all. Only thing I did not like was that he asked about GPA and GMAT score. It's not on the resume for a reason- shouldn't have brought it up.
Interview Questions
I applied through a recruiter. The process took a week. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY) in June 2014.
Initial 45 minute interview at a recruiting conference followed up with 4 interviews at the NY office. All were conversational interviews with a mix of background, relevant experience and behavioral type questions.

I was shortlisted for the interview and was invited for a dinner on the previous night of Interview. It was a networking event and helped me talk to many PwC senior consultants. I got lot of information about company consulting practice and understood the organization well. Next day morning I had behavioral interview and the overall process was good
Interview Questions
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at PwC (New York, NY) in July 2013.
Standard interview process. First round with recruiter on phone. Followed by senior manager on the phone. Was then flown into their New York office to be interviewed by couple of more senior managers face to face. Final round was another in person interview with a partner in another city.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at PwC.
Applied online, was then contacted by Recruiting manager who asked normal HR type questions (i.e. salary, work authorization, experience). After that I had 4 phone interviews with a Director, manager, senior manager and partner. The interviews were very friendly and cordial mostly wanted to talk through resume and experience. They also set expectations in regards to travel and working hours.

Reasons for Declining
got another offer from a different consulting firm that I felt more aligned with where I wanted to take my career. I would recomend PWC however.

Norwich have put in an official bid for Gary Hooper. £5 million, which is only £1 million less than a bid from Southampton which Celtic knocked back 12 months ago.
Norwich have also simultaneously bid the same amount for Danny Graham.

Antepli Ejderha wrote: Sunderland have also put in a bid for Danny Graham who is apparently unsettled and wanting to move back to the north east.
Swansea have allegedly bid £3 million for a Jones, and it is that big lumbering forward from Stoke.
Neither of these deals make any sense.

I Awoke One Night
I wasn't sure if my eyes were open or not; all I could see was a velvet curtain of black. At first, I wasn't even sure that I was awake until a weak, hazy purple light began to penetrate at the corners of my vision, spreading across my eyes until I could make out the shape of my ceiling fan. I was certain that I was awake now, but I didn't move. I just lay there, trying to identify the source that had wrenched me out of my dreams. Trafalgar was barking, his deep baying penetrated the door to the room he slept in, echoing through the house and beating a pulse around my ears.
I threw my feet over the side of the bed and, without making a sound, I gingerly stepped down. Instead of hard, rough wooden floor, my toes became tangled in a warm mass of stringy hair. My heart leaped upward. Hard. I almost choked on the thick ball of fear that lodged itself in my throat. I didn't scream, though. I never scream. A rhythm began to thump steadily on the bedpost. I smiled sheepishly at myself as I reached down to run my fingers through L.D.'s soft fur. She wagged her tail nervously.
"What's the matter, puppy? Is the thunder scary?" I listened intently as I absentmindedly stroked her ears. I couldn't hear any distant rumbles, but L.D. always got nervous far before we could ever hear the coming storm. Still, it made me nervous that she was nervous, and I didn't remember anything on the forecast about rain.
I stood up, slowly, silently, and moved towards my door, walking smoothly and silently, toe-to-heel. I pressed the brass knob of my door inward as I turned it, so the metal wouldn't scream. The door hinges were greased, but I still felt apprehensive as I pulled the door open. As I glided out, I listened for the familiar click of L.D.'s toenails that followed me closely every time it stormed. They didn't follow me this time; L.D. stayed under the bed.
Out on the landing it was much easier to see. The light from the uncurtained bay window spilled onto the landing and formed pools of silver onto the floor, seeping into the golden grain of the wood panels, glowing in the honey wood. I grabbed the banister lightly, using it to steady my sleep-encumbered body as I flowed down the steps. The noises were still soft and stifled, but they became louder as I turned towards the kitchen. A fuzzy light clung to the corners of the hall, emanating from the kitchen, and it grew stronger and more defined as I followed the source. The long runner muffled my footsteps so that I no longer had to make an effort at silence. I stepped softly along the hallway. The woven flowers and birds of the long carpet were corrupted by the darkness, morphed into grotesque, monstrous shapes.
I peered around the corner, viewing the kitchen through a mirror on the opposite wall. There were men in my house. Big men, in dark clothes.

Her old friend, President Nixon, and his family were to lead a parade to her mansion to congratulate the tart-tongued daughter of Teddy Roosevelt. Tart-Tongued Alice Is 90 By Helen Thomas WASHINGTON (UPI) -Washington's most famous grande dame. Alice Roosevelt Ixtngworth, celebrates her 90th birthday Tuesday. Her old friend. President Nixon, and his family were to lead a parade to her Massachusetts avenue mansion to congratulate the tart-tongued daughter of Teddy Roosevelt. "This d. . . birthday is driving me crazv," she recently told an interviewer. But it is clear that she has made the most of her long association with Presidents of the United States going back to Benjamin Harrison. She set a style for presidential daughters which not all achieved. Much as she protests, she likes birthdays as a time to see relatives and friends. She also likes to blow out the candles on her birthday cake, but she never makes a wish. The legendary "Princess Alice", for whom the song "Alice Blue Gown" was written, has been a sought-after guest by Presidents of both parties, and she numbered the late Presidents Kennedy and Johnson among her friends. She considers Nixon a "personal friend," voted for him and calls him "level headed." In turn, he lavishly praises her as the "most fascinating conversationalist of our time." Her memory is fantastic. But it is her cutting wit, sparing no one, that has been her trademark, along with her broad-brimmed hats. She reserved her most acid comments for her cousins Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt and delighted in mimicking the former First l^ady. In the EDR era, she went to the White House often, but politically supported Roosevelt's Republican rivals. And yet. one of her most quoted remarks was a description of the late Thomas Dewey, the Republican presidential candidate defeated by Truman in 1948: "The little man on the wedding cake." Much as she admires the Nixon daughters, she did not hesitate to compare Tricia Cox' rose garden wedding with a "Hollywood setting." Father Exploded Her madcap ways enthralled and appalled the nation. When confronted with her exploits, her father once exploded that he could govern the country' or govern Alice, "but I can't do both."

She had no bridesmaids and slashed the wedding cake with a sword. In 1924, when a rumor spread she was pregnant, the then United Press manager, Robert J. Bender, called her, and with some trepidation asked: "Are you pregnant Mrs. Longworth?" "Hell, yes," she answered happily. "Isn't it wonderful?" Her one daughter, Paulina Longworth. now dead, was born Feb. 14, 1923. She lives with her granddaughter, Joanna Sturm, 27, and follows a faithful ritual. She goes out several times a week to dinner and she entertains in her own home at tea time, serving thin sliced buttered bread and chocolate cake. She usually reads until 3 or 4 a m., then sleeps until noon. She haunts the bookshops and likes to "people watch" in hippie Georgetown. She has a faithful black chauffeur who drives her antique Cadillac. Once when a motorist tossed a slurring racist remark at her driver, Mrs. Longworth leaned out of her window and called the tormentor a name that questioned his legitimacy. She is striking with bright blue sparkling eyes, bony thin and fluttery. Mrs. Long-worth's home boasts a portrait of her, painted by artist Peter Hurd, that captures her spirit., Typical cf her formidable temperament, she has a pillow on which is embroidered: "If you haven't got anything good to say about anyone sit by me." The mansion also boasts relics of her Oyster Bay, NY, heritage and wedding gifts from royalty, and there are dusty lion skins on the walls, a reminder of Teddy, the big game hunter. She recently told an interviewer that she enjoyed "toddling" into her nineties, and that 90 "had a nice ring." [ JC-art PORTRAIT SPEC!

On the road in Indiana - The Wisconsin men's hockey team closes its regular-season schedule this weekend at the Kohl Center with two critical Western Collegiate Hockey Association games against Colorado College.
The games are set for 7 p.m. Friday and 7 p.m. Saturday.
In addition to supporting their team, fans can help former UW goaltender Kirk Daubenspeck by purchasing T-shirts. (Look for Section 126 on the main concourse)
The T-shirts cost $29, with all proceeds going to the fund set up to help defray Daubenspeck's medical costs.
If you recall, Daubenspeck last month suffered a severe brain injury when the car he was driving collided with a truck in foggy conditions on Highway 18/151 near Dodegeville.
Daubenspeck, who played at UW from 1993-'97, remains in UW Hospital and Clinics.

Welcome back, dear fans. Another "Black Crayon" story is here. I watched the new Transformer movie (which was awesome) and it inspired me. This one occurs after "Parent-Teacher Conference" but before "Baby-sitting, Take Two." As before, this story can be read alone, but is better with the other stories. Check out my profile for the listed order of the stories because I wrote them out of order. This one is simply a child's curiosity concerning her friend.
Everyone Needs a Birthday
Annabelle looked up at the tall, metallic shape of her best friend. He had always been there. For as long as she could remember, the transformed truck had been part of her family. Currently, he was examining his cannons. He loved his cannons so strongly and always maintained them. Annabelle loved the noise they made when her giant companion manipulated them.
"Ironhide, when is your birthday?" she asked. "I have a birthday. Mommy and Daddy have birthdays. All the kids at school have birthdays. When is yours?"
The Autobot stared down at the child. After a moment, he answered slowly.
"Annabelle, Cybertronians do not really celebrate 'birthdays' like humans do. Besides, our measurement of time does not really match up with yours."
The girl tilted her head as she considered his words. She understood that he was from very far away. She knew Ironhide's home was so different than Earth. It made sense many things would be different. But birthdays?
"Everyone needs a birthday, Ironhide. Otherwise you can't have a birthday party. And those are fun. You get to see all your friends and family. They give you presents and cake." She grinned as she remembered her robotic friend didn't eat cake or things like that. "And you get to play games and have fun. You need a birthday."
Ironhide apparently was beginning to recognize the start of a losing fight. He was never one to back down from a challenge. Even one against a determined preschooler.
"I have seen a few of your 'birthday parties,' and I can see a few problems with me having one. You represent the years of your life with the lighting of small wax primitive light devices and extinguishing them. As your age increases, so does the number of these devices on your baked food covered in a sweet glaze; 'cake'. However, the number of such devices that would be required to represent my lifespan thus far would be far too great to fit upon any 'cake' your mother would be able to prepare."
"That's okay," Annabelle grinned up at the Cybertronian, enjoying the fact she could find a good argument for his objections. "On Grandma's birthday, we put one candle on the cake instead of lots. We can do that for you too."
"Alright," he conceded that point, but Ironhide wasn't done yet. "But your 'birthday' is always on the same day each year. If I did convert to your calendar, what day would I select since the length of Earth's revolution does not match with Cybertron's?"
The girl was used to puzzling out Ironhide's more elaborate phrasing and understood after a moment her friend's new excuse.
"You can share with me! I don't mind if you have the same birthday as me. That way you can have a birthday and no one will forget when it is cause it will be on the same day as me."
The robot, trying to find another way to get out of Annabelle's determined plan, reasoned, "But on your 'birthday,' your mother said your classmates would be attending your party this year. How would I be able to have my 'birthday' at the same time as you?"
This slowed Annabelle down. Before she started preschool, the only people at her birthday parties were her parents and Ironhide. Now she would be inviting everyone in her class. Suzie would be fun to have. Carl would be less so. She was still mad at him for her scary stories about how aliens were evil monsters. She got in trouble for hitting that boy, but it was worth it. She still didn't tell Ironhide why she was so mad at Carl. Annabelle loved her giant robotic friend too much to let him know how mean that boy was. Still, the kids at school wouldn't slow down her enthusiasm to include her best friend.
"My party with my friends from school can be in the morning and yours can be in the afternoon after they leave. Don't worry; we have some time until it's my birthday. And your birthday too. We can figure it out later," she giggled as his head dropped in resign.
"Everyone needs a birthday?" he asked carefully.
Annabelle nodded happily, "Of course. Even you, Ironhide."
"And there is no way you will consider letting me get out of it, is there?"
The giant Cybertronian, the Autobot weapon specialist, felt himself bend to the will of the small, human child. He shifted his cannons slightly, and shook his head slightly. Decepticons have nothing on preschoolers. Annabelle smiled sweetly at him.
"Very well. I will share your 'birthday,' Annabelle."
I may write about the birthday itself at a later date. I also have another idea for a "Black Crayons" story I might do as well. But it is always fun to see a giant robot be bullied around by a young child.

Theo Robinson picked the perfect time to score his first goal for Millwall as Kenny Jackett's bravehearts battled to take the derby honours in a fiesty Selhurst Park encounter.Robinson, making only his second start for The Lions following his loan move from Huddersfield Town, kept his cool to fire home the winner from an acute angle on 53 minutes.Although neither side could be accused of lacking effort or commitment, the frenetic pace at times saw the quality of football perhaps not reach the heights hoped for as the teams locked horns for the first time in five years.Not that come the final whistle any one of the 4,805 Lions fans packed into the Arthur Wait Stand were concerned as they celebrated in full voice!Millwall have enjoyed the better run of results in recent meetings against Palace and this success now means that The Eagles have failed to beat The Lions in eight of the last nine fixtures."It was a hard fought win," said Kenny. "We knew that because it was a derby it was going to be a battle, but after the run we've been on it is a great win and well deserved." With Alan Dunne suspended, boss Jackett was forced to shuffle his playing pack and opted to switch Scott Barron to an unaccustomed right-back role for only the second time in his Millwall career. Darren Carter came in for his third start in a Lions shirt - ironically all away from The Den - to slot in on the left of midfield.However, it was Palace who settled into their stride more quickly as George Burley's outfit forced four corners in the opening five minutes.Slowly but surely The Lions started to pose an attacking threat themselves and on 11 minutes a great piece of work by Robinson saw his low cross eventually nicked off the toes of Steve Morison by Claude Davis.The visitors chalked up a couple of decent chances with Julian Speroni comfortably saving a weak Morison shot before working a bit harder to make a fine save after Morison had controlled Tony Craig's deep free-kick and hit a thumping effort goal-bound from close range.Robinson hooked over from a Chris Hackett corner on 21 minutes, but it was far from all Millwall as Palace too created some decent openings of their own.Wilfried Zaha - who started like a train before running out of steam badly in the second-half - set up Pablo Counago on 23 minutes, only for the striker to fire wide from a great position.If that miss was bad, worse was to follow 13 minutes later when teenager Zaha did all the hard work, creating time and space to fire home, but spurned the glorious opportunity to put Palace 1-0 up by curling his effort past the far post.Eagles skipper Paddy McCarthy skied the ball high and wide from five yards after Millwall struggled to clear one of nine corners for the home side in the opening half, but McCarthy's blushes were saved by the linesman's flag.Robinson and Morison both had half-chances that flew narrowly off target at the other end as the first 45 minutes drew to a close.Zaha was lucky to escape a yellow card five minutes after the restart with an ill-timed, rather malicious tackle on Hackett that sent the Millwall winger flying, but the frustration on the visiting bench soon turned to cheers just three minutes later.Goalkeeper David Forde launched a free-kick from inside his own half, Morison flicked on to Robinson, who used his pace to skim past Julian Bennett, rounded keeper Speroni and calmly fired home from the tightest of angles to spark wild celebrations from the Lions camp both on and off the field.Having grabbed the lead, and the initiative, there was no way Millwall were going to relinquish their position in charge.Skipper Paul Robinson and Darren Ward may have defended like lions in the heart of defence, but it was centre half turned midfielder Tamika Mkandawire who proved unbeatable as he twice made simply magnificent last-ditch tackles on Zaha as he prepared to pull the trigger in the danger zone.Although Palace were enjoying the greater possession at this stage, it was easy to see why they have the lowest shots-on-goal ratio by any Championship team as there was no real end product to their build-up play.Sub Neil Harris was a whisker away from showing how it should be done when, with his first touch of the ball after replacing match-winner Robinson on 79 minutes, he sent a trademark curler inches past Speroni's left-hand post.Counago screwed an effort into the side netting at the other end as The Eagles tried to build up a head of steam as the game approached the 90 minute mark.But the only steam they managed was that of rage when, following a tussle between Davis and Hackett on the byline, Davis appeared to leave his boot in Hackett's face, after Hackett was penalised for pulling his shirt. The Millwall man received a yellow card and the Palace defender a straight red for violent conduct.That dismissal effectively ended any hope The Eagles had of snatching a late leveller as The Lions held on comfortably during four and a half minutes of injury-time for a deserved win to move to within two points of the Play-Offs.

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially established June 14 as Flag Day.
Unfortunately for one Bass Lake resident, Flag Day is going to be a bit dismal this year. Since Memorial Day, Ken Myers' flag pole at Bass Lake has been bare – that was the day someone stole not only his American flag on a 30-foot pole, but his Vietnam POW flag and his Marine flag.
"On Memorial Day, I was flying my American flag at half-staff. My wife was out watering her flowers and some people stopped by and asked why we weren't flying my flag – it's like a monument out here – and she looked up and all three flags were gone," Myers said.
Myers said that at first he was sad, but then he became mad as he realized this is the second time someone has stolen flags off his property. The first time they took the pole as well.
"Somebody who would do that would steal off graves; they have no morals," Myers noted.
Flag Day is a special day for Myers, as on this day he thinks of his buddies who served in the Vietnam War. Some of them never came home. So, if you drive by Myers' home at Bass Lake today, he'll be proudly flying a new American flag.
Ken Myers is offering a $500 reward for anyone with information that leads to the arrest of whoever stole his flag – and for anyone thinking about taking this flag, he's placed a camera on the pole.

Precise Corporate Staging Celebrates Anniversary with Patriotic Twist, Seeks Military Charities
Precise Corporate Staging Pays Respect to Men and Women in Service by Offering Support for Arizona and Georgia-Based Military Organizations
Building on a long tradition of giving back to the community, Precise Corporate Staging will provide equipment and support services free of charge to non-profits working for the benefit of members of our armed forces.
"We have built a strong reputation of community service at hour home base in Arizona," said president of Precise Corporate Staging, David Stern. "As we are deeply passionate about offering a helping hand to those serving and the families of those serving, we hope to have the opportunity to help out both in Arizona and in the areas surrounding our location in Georgia."
The company's long-held personal passion for supporting our troops can partially be attributed to the recent and courageous service of SSG Matthew Stern, son of founders David and Marla Stern. Upon completion of duty in Afghanistan, Matthew is currently stationed in Fort Campbell, Kentucky.
David Stern maintains that Precise Corporate Staging's growth has always been paralleled by community outreach. In Arizona, Precise Corporate Staging donates in-kind services and support to various organizations including: Make a Wish Foundation, March of Dimes, Alice Cooper's Solid Rock Foundation, Alzheimer's Foundation of America, and various children's health and hospice care programs.
Arizona and Georgia-based charities are encouraged to contact Precise Corporate Staging by sending an email to email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com for further information and instructions on how to apply. Requests will be processed on a first come, first served basis and event support will be determined based on equipment availability.
"We're excited to have the chance to help causes we believe in and develop long lasting relationships within the local communities in Arizona and Georgia," added Stern. "As a company that opened its doors on such a patriotic day in 2000, we can't think of a better way to commemorate our past twelve years of business."
In addition to the military, Precise Corporate Staging supports causes that enhance quality of life for youth, women and children, at-risk youth programs and health and wellness.

The possible influence of curvature and rotation on ocean currents

Recent laboratory investigations have shown that rotation and (streamwise) curvature can have spectacular effects on momentum transport in turbulent shear flows. A simple model that takes account of these effects (based on an analogy with buoyant flows) utilises counterparts of the Richardson number Rg and the Monin-Oboukhov length. Estimates of Rg for meanders in ocean currents like the Gulf Stream show it to be of order 1 or more, while laboratory investigations reveal strong effects even at |Rg|∼0·1. These considerations lead to the conclusion that at a cyclonic bend in the Gulf Stream, a highly unstable flow in the outer half of the jet rides over a highly stable flow in the inner half. It is conjectured that the discrepancies noticed between observation and the various theories of Gulf Stream meanders, and such phenomena as the observed detachment of eddies from the Gulf Stream, may be due to the effects of curvature and rotation on turbulent transport.

New York Medical College, Valhalla, NY
PURPOSE: According to the new Dana Point classification, pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with Chronic Renal Failure (CRF) is now classified under group 5 which includes those forms of PH where the underlying mechanism is either unclear or multi-factorial. Incidence of PH is increased in patients with CRF, especially in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis via an arterio-venous fistula (AVF). Various mechanisms have been suggested for PH in these patients including the increase in cardiac output (CO) due to the AVF, anemia, hormonal changes and left ventricular dysfunction but the exact pathogenesis remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate possible mechanisms for PH in patients with CRF.
METHODS: We examined data on 159 patients with CRF (GFR < 60) who had undergone right heart catheterization (RHC) for evaluation of PH noted on echocardiography. 57 of the 159 patients were excluded due to valvular heart disease. We compared the clinical, laboratory and hemodynamic characteristics of the remaining 102 patients with and without PH on RHC. The hemodynamic data examined included pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), CO, mixed venous pO2 and left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP).
RESULTS: Of the 102 patients noted to have PH on echocardiography, 57 patients (56%) had PH and 45 (44%) did not have PH on RHC. 45 of 57 (79%) patients with PH had a PCWP >15 mmHg and 46 (81%) patients had a LVEDP > 15mmHg. Among the patients with and without PH, there was no significant difference in their CO but in the patients with PH, there was a significant increase in their PCWP and LVEDP.
CONCLUSION: Among patients with PH on echocardiography, a significant number of patients had no PH on RHC. The increase in PCWP and LVEDP without any increase in CO in patients with PH and CRF suggests that the cause of the PH in these patients is fluid overload or diastolic dysfunction.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Fluid overload or diastolic dysfunction is a common cause of PH in CRF.

-Water shore ledges beneath the mountain? (North of the bridge)
-The roof on the house in the top left has a tile error on the far right tile

-All of the trees have shadows, when the should not, as they are not next to other trees (like in border blocks)
-By the stairs on the far right you have mountain ledges with the mountain tile background, when it should be grass. (by the small rock)
-You are missing one of the corner water ledges on the far right
-The small mountain to the right of the bridge looks weird without Gen 4 and 5's camera angling.
-There is a small rock in the water that may be a slip of the mouse? It just doesn't belong.
-Your stairs by the sand tiles are missing the stairs tile with the shading. You did it with the other stairs that go onto the mountain, but not with this.
Now, positives:
-The pathways are well spaced and look natural
-The idea of using the darker water for showing where the rocks extend below the water's surface is neat.
Rating: 5/10
And my map:
I'm worried most about the mountains. Mine never feel natural. Any advice?

Mitroglou shines as Greece qualify for World Cup
BUCHAREST (Reuters) - Greece qualified for a second successive World Cup after another Kostas Mitroglou goal secured a 1-1 draw with Romania in the second leg of their playoff on Tuesday and a 4-2 victory on aggregate.
Mitroglou, who scored twice in Greece's 3-1 first-leg win, beat the offside trap midway through the first half and gave keeper Ciprian Tatarusanu no chance with his 22nd goal in all competitions this season.
Romania equalized 10 minutes after the break when the ball ricocheted off defender Vasilis Torosidis from Jose Holebas's attempted clearance and looped beyond goalkeeper Orestis Karnezis for an astonishing own goal.
Greece, the 2004 European champions, competed in the previous World Cup finals, in South Africa in 2010, as well as the 1994 tournament in the United States, but they have failed to get past the first round, losing five of their six matches.
Greece arrived in Bucharest after seven consecutive wins and aiming to produce another solid defensive display, with Bogdan Stancu's strike at the Georgios Karaiskakis Stadium on Friday ending their run of 594 minutes without conceding a goal.
Greece coach Fernando Santos made only one change from the team that humbled the Romanians in the first leg, with 36-year-old veteran Giorgos Karagounis replacing suspended captain Kostas Katsouranis in midfield in his 131st international appearance.
"It's a great moment for all of us and for all Greeks," Fulham midfielder Karagounis, who assisted Mitroglou with clever through-ball for the opening goal after 23 minutes, told reporters.
"You just can't describe your feelings after such a game.
"I've been playing for the national team for 14 years, I played at the European championship's finals 10 years ago and now I fulfilled another dream." Continued...

Hello, my Great-Grandmother worked in Blockley silk mill. Her name was Emma Taplin, then she went on to marry a West. Her family lived in Paxford and her father worked on the Blockley railway. I only live down the road from Blockley, I found the silk mill Emma and her sister Anna Taplin worked. It felt lovely walking down the same road she went to work on. I followed their footsteps and it felt so good. By looking at the building itself made me realise how hard they had it in those days. Made me think how lucky we are today. But the history that is still around Blockley and Paxford is brill, I found names on war crosses that I had in my family tree, the whole thing as just bso wonderful I can't explain how I feel.
I now know where my Great-Grandmother worked and her sister, and now I am trying to find the cottage they lived in in paxford. My Gt-Gt Grandmother came from Wolford in Warwickshire, seems to be very close to each other, the villages that they all came from. I am still looking for info and buildings where they lived. I haven't given up and I want, so anybody doing the family tree, it pays to ask the older members of the villages where things might be, I did and I thank all those for taking the time to tell me where buildings are - thank you x

The Diaries of Kenneth Tynan
ed John Lahr
352pp, Bloomsbury, £25
I was 20 when I met Ken Tynan. Spare Rib was on the eve of being launched and Ken, along with the likes of Michael White, Felix Topolski and Christopher Logue, turned up at some of our fundraising parties and dutifully wrote out cheques for £10 or £20 towards "the cause". I also shared a birthday with Tynan's daughter, Tracy, whose mother, Elaine Dundy, had written a favourite book of mine, The Dud Avocado.
Ken's extraordinarily beautiful wife, Kathleen, became a loyal contributor to Spare Rib. To my 20-year-old eyes, they were an impossibly glamorous duo. One night, summoned to a large dinner at their home in South Kensington, I found myself squashed knee to knee on a huge white sofa next to Ava Gardner. We watched White Heat with the lights out. Tynan's world - of wit, brilliant erudition, eccentricity and first-name familiarity with everyone famous in the world - was from another planet.
For 20 years, he had been the theatrical arbiter on both sides of the Atlantic. He was more than a critic, although he was probably the finest the 20th century produced; he was also an architect of our modern theatre and a cultural thinker with huge influence. When he introduced "fuck" to the BBC, the first person with the nerve to do so, he sent absurd waves rippling through the burgeoning counter-culture of the 1960s. So it was with huge anticipation that I started reading The Diaries of Kenneth Tynan; but, oh, what a disappointing sadness they prove to be.
The entries cover the last years of his life, from 1971 until his prolonged and painful death from emphysema in 1980, at just 53. He has already lost his advisory job at the National Theatre and produced the feeblest of sequels to Oh! Calcutta!; in this last, grizzly decade, Tynan's glittering life slides into a ragged despair. He fails to make a film about his increasingly obsessive interest in sex (his magnum opus on sex therapist Wilhelm Reich also remains unfinished). He's broke, smoking himself to death, searching around for money to pay the phone bill, let alone bolster a grown-up identity.
His departure from the National meant an end to his grandiose, overreaching dream of transforming the stale postwar theatre into something approaching its first Elizabethan counterpart. Once again, he had fantasised, theatre would become "an independent force at the heart of the country's life". In 1956, the year of Suez, he had narcissistically (how else?) proclaimed the merits of Osborne's Look Back in Anger. "I doubt if I could love anyone who did not want to see it," he confided to his Observer constituency.
Fifteen years on, with a busy decade as the National's guru behind him, he admits to coming up with only a single new playwright - Stoppard - and no new directors at all. As the 1971 diary begins, he is thinking small, rejecting "big bands and large parties", and claiming improbably that "the applause I need is supplied in my private life". This is why he has become a "committed chamber musician, unhappy in all crowds. Hence a parlour politician, never an activist... Those lacking such applause (or approval) seek it in public, becoming politicians." We might be dealing with the private thoughts of a failed Victorian headmaster, no longer in control: all passion spent, he has retired, to a country rectory perhaps, extolling the domestic virtues of family and hearth. The sentiments, and fake humility, fit perfectly. The only things missing are inflated periodic prose, a couple of classical tags, and, er, God.
But then, without warning or explanation, comes a list of sobriquets; names, presumably, for soubrettes, the traditional French maids of risqué Parisian farces. Miss Botty Bumhole, the great man jots down for his own delectation and, as it turns out, for posterity. Miss Randy Spankable, he adds, and then Miss Clarissa Claridge (who grimbles). All very rum, like Lewis Carroll hallucinating.
Yet here is what becomes a dominant theme: the obsession with bums (as opposed to breasts, we later learn). With them comes the lavatorial anus as erotic centre. We are dealing with a sadomasochist, and a frustrated one at that. The public life has failed him; the private life just as much. He has reached a cul-de-sac on both major journeys of his career. Where to go next? And, crucially, with whom? For in the dandy tradition of his adored Wilde, Ken is saddled with an underground passion, heterosexual this time, too obscene to be much named - even in the not excessively polite high society he has wooed so single-mindedly since he was a schoolboy.
For although she's done her best like a brave gel and good trouper to cooperate with her husband's rosebud predilections, Kathleen's heart, it is clear, fails both herself and her husband in Dr Thwackum mode. There is self-protection to consider, apart from anything else. Ken is not satisfied by the kind of naughty games from the suburbs that you might find recommended "to spice up your sex life" in Cosmo or its imitators. With his schoolmaster's cane - what else? - Ken seeks to take sadomasochism to the dangerous edge and beyond. Dundy, his first wife - another, at best, dilettante masochist - reported a week-long orgy and four canes broken.
Words to inspire the spanking partner "Nicole", who is already on the Tynan scene when he first introduces her in the diary in May 1974. Nicole is no weekend hippy but a real pro, though one who doesn't initially require cash from Ken or her other lovers. For free, after a hot Indian dinner, she indulges him by "injecting a large glass of vodka into my anus via an enema tube. Within 10 minutes the agony is indescribable..." There follows a long weekend of lavatory visits. "NB three days later I am still seeping blood."
Despite his misadventures, the wounded one reflects philosophically on the "poetic justice" of his admittedly farcical or "fixatee" behaviour. This is a metaphor of addiction which proves appropriate. "Oh, the perils of hedonism!", he writes. Oh indeed, and not only for himself and Nicole.
Those with a strong stomach can find out how the sexual catastrophe unfolds, and its effect on those around. The diarist is, unsurprisingly, afflicted by constant guilt and self-loathing. With emphysema kicking in, the reward for his 1940s-style chain-smoking reaches a peak on which he conducts a hate/ hate relationship with himself. His own enemy to the end, he smokes on despite the dangers of igniting the oxygen on which, like his buddy John Huston, he has come to depend.
Who emerges as the dominant figure is an easy guess. Nicole, no mean aphorist herself - indeed, often equal to the master in his dog days - remarks in 1975: "I never give myself away, because I'm afraid I shan't get myself back. I live in constant fear of being stolen." Meanwhile burglar Ken has broken into the home to steal his own precious self of old - or, worse, give it away. What is left? A blacker-than-black record of boy wonder ceding to dirty old man with no plateau of maturity or contentment before he crosses the lethal border.
At last, however, he has finished his own underground tragedy. This is what Tracy and I must have seen at the "tiresome" dinner which Ken describes so bitterly in the diary. We "new women" were only "old Adams writ large", on an Oedipal mission to kill the king. If I mocked him, as he alleges, it was probably to disguise the pain and discomfort of seeing my hero as a clapped-out lefty, marooned on a beach of precocious old age. He was only 53. Read for yourself - and weep.

Severn Trent De Nora Wins Contract from EMAS to Supply BALPURE® for Pipelay Vessel
The Type-Approved BALPURE® ballast water treatment system from Severn Trent De Nora has been selected for use by EMAS on the "Lewek Constellation", a 22,000-dwt pipelay vessel being built in Vung Tau, Vietnam.
EMAS, headquartered in Singapore, is a global offshore oil and gas specialist providing marine, construction, production and well services to multinational, national and independent oil, gas and renewable energy companies. BALPURE is the first ballast water treatment system ordered by EMAS for use on any of its vessels. After undergoing a rigorous review process, BALPURE proved to offer superior technology and flexibility of installation over other systems evaluated by EMAS.
BALPURE, which utilizes electrolytic disinfection technology, is a reliable and economical ballast water treatment approach which has been proven to surpass IMO D-2 standards by tenfold. BALPURE's slip stream treatment approach, where approximately one percent of the total ballast water flow is used to generate the hypochlorite disinfection solution, enables remote mounting away from critical ballast systems. The slip stream approach, coupled with a design that requires treatment only during the uptake of the ballasting cycle, requires significantly less electric power when compared to competing technologies – ensuring low operational costs.
The BALPURE system ordered by EMAS will be supplied in sub-assemblies for installation in the pipelay vessel by April 2012. The system is capable of treating ballast water flow rates of up to 2,000 m3/h.
"In recent months, BALPURE has been selected for use across different vessel types, attesting to its flexibility and suitability for the diverse marine market," said Jim McGillivray, BALPURE general manager for Severn Trent De Nora. "We have just completed installing BALPURE on two Japanese built and owned bulk carriers in January 2012 and have a healthy pipeline of enquiries for our system. We are expecting a very busy year ahead."
BALPURE offers a virtually maintenance-
Severn Trent De Nora will be showcasing the BALPURE system at the Asia Pacific Maritime exhibition (stand J16), 14 – 16 March 2012 at the Sands Expo & Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. An actual unit of the BALPURE BP1000 system will be showcased at Taiko Kikai Industries Co Ltd's exhibition booth at Sea Japan (stand JPN-031), 18 – 20 April at the Tokyo BIG SIGHT Exhibition Center. Taiko Kikai Industries Co Ltd, along with Nisso Shoji Co, represent and promote the BALPURE system product line to the Japanese marine market.

UPDATE 2-TD Ameritrade earnings jump 20 percent; shares rise
* Quarterly profit, revenue beat Wall Street expectations
* Average daily client trades rose 12 percent
* Revenue up 9 percent to $725 billion
* Shares up almost 4 percent
By Jed Horowitz
July 23 (Reuters) - TD Ameritrade Holding Corp posted a 19.5 percent rise in quarterly earnings, as interest revenue and trading commissions at the discount brokerage firm beat Wall Street expectations.
The results surpassed analysts' estimates of profit and revenue, and drove TD Ameritrade shares up almost 4 percent in midday trading.
Investors and analysts were impressed by a 5 percent increase in net interest revenue from the prior quarter, despite continuing low interest rates. They also applauded a 12 percent year-over-year jump to an average of more than 399,000 client trades a day, making the latest quarter the firm's most active in almost two years.
Chief Executive Officer Fred Tomczyk was nevertheless cautious about retail investors' enthusiasm about moving from cash and bonds into stocks. An anticipated "great rotation" into equity mutual funds and exchange-traded funds is at best a "mini rotation," he said on a conference call and in an interview with Reuters. Continued...

Arghh - don't forget to click on the padlock after you solve the puzzle!
Don't need to zoom in to use shovel
Mouths of packmen have to match to be able to open puzzle
missile destroyed, but so is my clicking finger! That red and green puzzle was tedious!
Red X this time. "pac-man" puzzle is way too tedious.
i disagree, i think the "pacman red/gren" was very simple to solve...
the hardest thing for me was which hint is for which sliders & the heights - fine game - thx ENA ☺
Caution: some clues are off by 1.
And I think the rocket height clue was wrong for the right rocket.
Pac-man shape matching was fast for me. maybe 2 minutes. Red and green was tedious, but only a few minutes.
Okay, back at it again. You all were right about the pac-man puzzle. But the chevrons at the base of the rocket were ALL off by 1 (add 1 to each).
And the rocket heights puzzle was all wrong. -1 for each except last.
chevrons were invisible on mac. Had to cheat. it spoiled the game for me son can't score it high.

I had a free FPC to use for this product. At first I was disappointed to see that the roasted garlic and dill flavour was not available at my local Co-op store, so I settled for the Hot Date flavour instead, and hoped it would not be too spicy. I was pleasantly surprised with this flavour! It was mild to medium in spice, and was also sweet in flavour. The consistency was on the chunkier side and thick, which was very satisfying - it stayed on my taco chips well without sliding off. Overall this was a fantastic flavour, and though I am still interested in trying out the garlic dill, I would absolutely buy the Hot Date flavour again.
I got a FPC for this so I got the roasted garlic and dill for free.It was a different taste from what I'm used to and I liked it. I put it on ritz crackers and enjoyed it. I had never tried hummus till then.
