The "Big I" is done.
Here comes the Overland Bridge.
The state Department of Transportation plans to break ground in January on the $227 million project that will rebuild a 2.3-mile stretch of Interstate 95 from south of the Fuller Warren Bridge to north of Emerson Street.
Dubbed the Overland Bridge because part of the project entails replacing an elevated section of highway, the construction will unfold in an area where an average of 123,000 vehicles a day motor in and out of downtown.
The start of that work comes two years after the state finished the Big I, which is the junction of I-95 and Interstate 10 on the other side of downtown.
It's another round of expensive construction, but transportation department officials say the existing elevated structure constantly needs repairs, and the new version will create smoother traffic flow by adding lanes.
Still, construction zones slow down traffic.
"Anytime you work in a highly populated area on an interstate highway, it's complex," transportation department spokesman Mike Goldman said.
He said the state will do the bulk of the Overland Bridge work at night, leaving the current number of lanes open during the day for rush-hour traffic. Pile-driving will be done during the day to minimize the noise intrusion on homes along the highway when people are sleeping.
So far, the main impact has been at ground level, where the transportation department is in the midst of acquiring about $60 million of property. That acquisition will clear the way for construction of additional highway lanes and drainage ponds.
The building for the Doll House, a nude dance club in the St. Nicholas neighborhood, is among the property that will be purchased. The club shut down Sept. 29, faced with the double-whammy of the state's impending purchase of the property for right of way and the city's effort to close adult-oriented businesses in areas not zoned for industrial uses.
The club's owners are looking for another place in Jacksonville to relocate but haven't found one yet.
Other businesses that operate in close quarters to the upcoming construction are preparing to weather the work.
Tidbits, located on Hendricks Avenue in the shadows of an elevated stretch of I-95, considered moving but opted to stay, said co-owner Greg LeBlanc. His initial concerns involved the loss of parking along Hendricks and access to his business, but he said he's worked out some parking arrangements for his customers.
He said the business has been at the same spot for 28 years and he figures it can't be worse than the Hendricks Avenue rebuild from a few years ago.
"We survived that one," he said. "To move somewhere else, we looked at all the numbers and it just didn't make sense. It didn't add up. We'll try to make the best of the situation. We've endured a lot of stuff before."
He and his wife plan to open a second restaurant, Tidbits Express, next year in the Baymeadows area, with an eye toward generating sales from that site to offset any potential losses at the Hendricks store.
The main reason for doing the Overland Bridge is the repeated maintenance that's needed on the existing structure, which has necessitated nighttime lane closures.
"It's really been a maintenance headache over the years," Goldman said.
But the reconstruction will also make some changes in access to and from I-95.
Motorists traveling south on the Main Street bridge and merging onto I-95 will not be able to exit the highway at Hendricks. They can get to that exit now but must weave across several lanes of the highway in a short distance to do so.
On the flip side, drivers will gain the ability to exit northbound I-95 at Atlantic Boulevard. Currently, those motorists can get off at Emerson Street or continue to Prudential Drive in downtown, so the Atlantic Boulevard exit will add a midway point for reaching the St. Nicholas and San Marco neighborhoods from I-95.
The project also will add a southbound lane for I-95.
"It should make it a smoother traffic flow," Goldman said, "particularly when you get south of the Fuller Warren Bridge."

Well, yesterday we took the little ones to see Santa. I will post about that by itself. We also shopped a bit, had dinner and got home very late. So I was really enjoying a day home to bake. I had made two doughs the other day and they were chilling. The first cookie I made was PB & J Thumbprints. but I only managed to get a dozen and a half into the freezer, they were so good. Next, I made my spritz dough and made several dozen and got just about everyone in the freezer because I worked fast! Then I wrapped a ton of presents while the babies napped. Got another burst of inspiration and took out my chilled gingerbread dough and cut out some men, women and children. I have them decorated and cooling completely and they will be packed away in the freezer as well. The other night I made the two sheet cake layers for Luke's birthday cake and I made cupcakes. I froze them all to decorate on the eve of the 23rd. So a pretty good day for baking and wrapping. Christmas is coming up on us so fast, I cannot believe it. Well, I better get those Gingerpersons in the freezer before they get eaten. Hope everyone is getting everything they need to do done and not getting stressed out and forgetting the reason for the season.

Online Reservations
The atmosphere in both the restaurant and bar is fantastic, the location unique, and the cocktails, though pricey, are delicious! We didn't expect the food to be the main draw, but it was actually really good. The guacamole and chips were extremely flavorful (and abundant!) and other dishes were really well spiced. Finally, the staff were so accommodating - - due to weather, we missed our reserved table and the the staff went out of their way to fit us in after only a short additional wait. We'll be back soon!
Showed up with 4 people for a reservation for 2. Tried to use my charm to score us a table anyway. Must be where I went wrong ;) We were seated at a booth on the bar side, so didn't even get to see what the ambiance on the restaurant side was like. Service was watching paint dry slow. Didn't really seem like the staff on that side of the place were expecting to deal with diners. But the food was awesome. And it was definitely hopping. Cool place. I'll definitely go back.
Love the place and the sister bar next door. Service is always terrible but always a good time.
This place has to be on your "to-go" list just because it's located on a hidden street in Chinatown and down some secluded staircase; very cool NYC experience. Then, when you add the decor of the bar and restaurant, you can tell the owners truly invested some time and effort into this place. I loved that the bar and restaurant were on opposite sides as diners were not disturbed. Oh yeah, I forgot about the food and drinks. AWESOME!!! Definitely the best part of the entire experience. I highly recommend you try the Esquites side, Carne Asada meal, and the Coconut Pulque drink...Don't forget to try the lounge "Apotheke" right upstairs; very sexy spot and great cocktails!!!
Had a lovely dinner with my husband. We kept it simple - tacos and beer - all were tasty. The atmosphere is very cool
Gem in the middle of Chinatown. This is kind of in the middle of nowhere (there is not much of a nightlife scene that's walkable) but you can definitely make a night of it at the restaurant. We had a great meal and moved over to the bar area where there was music to dance. Everyone had a great time. Only downside is that it was a bit expensive.
I have been here many times, and each time It gets better and better. The food is awesome and atmosphere is great!service is good but not exceptional.
Went on a Monday night and had the tasting menu which was great for the price. Since we were two, my carnivore brother also ordered the tongue torta which he raved about and I had the esquites, which should NOT be missed! The pulque classico, as always, never disappoints.
Really fun spot-good drinks and really cool vibe overall. The food was good-but not great-small portions and sorta typical gourmet mexican. Ive had better. And service was a bit spotty-hard to find our server from time to time, slow with water...etc... But a fun spot-perhaps more of a fun bar to check out and grab an appetizer at than a sit down spot.
Probably the best tacos i've in NYC in a very long time. I ordered the Tacos Gringas and they were delicious. The guacamole with the chips were on the money too.
food and drinks were excellent however the server was unfriendly and inattentive. We waited a very long time to order.
Great meal. Especially guacamole with a tower of 5 salsas to try. Good margarita with fresh lime and not sweet! Nice staff.
I was on a date with my husband, and since we have kids it isnt often we get out- if ever. With that being said if it would have been a terrible experience we wouldve been very unhappy. We were definitely happy. The bar was down a narrow street easily mistaken for an alley;The location added to the coolness. The margaritas were incredible. My fav was the mango w/ cilantro garnish GEEZ it wasnt what I expected- it was so yummy. The overall taste of the food was great; Full of flavor!!! The ambience was mainly candlelit-amazing!~
Food was great and our waiter, Adam, was fantastic. Really fun for a group.
Great Mexican place hidden in Chinatown...sort of like a speakeasy? The food was phenomenal BUT very expensive for what it was...I went with a discount from Gilt City and ended up paying exactly what I thought the meal deserved at the price of half off. The waiter was really nice, though the service was a little slow, but overall a fun to place to go with friends and delicious margheritas.
Food was great! Menu and drinks were well thought out, tons of flavor and great preparations! Get the side of corn...it's amazing. There's no sign, so make sure you know the address! Would return and send my friends there!
I really enjoyed myself. Everything was delicious and the decor was awesome.
love the food and the atmosphere. Great cocktails, a bit pricey.
Food was a great surprise! Very fresh and authentic! Our servers were wonderful, friendly and made excellent suggestions. You would never expect to find this little Mexican gem in Chinatown. If you are adventurous enough to try to find this place GO! I was not too familiar with this neighborhood. Watermelon Pulque is delicious! Margaritas by the pitcher are well worth it! Jalepeno Cucumber and the Grapefuit Margaritas were really nice twists on the classic, which was also great! Carnitas and the corn were more than memorable. Chile rubbed skirt steak and the Enchiladas were outstanding! Not your typical Mexican food. Plate sizes were ample, but not too big. Very cool and candle lit space. Muy bien! Definitely going back.
We sat down to dinner last night at 10.30 pm and it was clear that there was only one server on. This lead to us waiting a long time to order drinks and unable to capture the attention of the server. He was however, extremely polite, welcoming and very apologetic. Food was amazing, however we were left very disappointed that they had run out of guacomole - how can a mexican restaurant run out of guacamole?! A member of our party had a food allergy and the chef came to check with us what exactly she could/could not eat which was very much appricated by us. Will 100% come back, we had a great time.
This place is a lot of fun even when it is completely empty! This was my second visit to Pulqueria and they had just finished filming a commercial so the restaurant was empty and we had to wait for a bit for our table but the bar is so much fun and they have the best margaritas so it was not a problem. It's definitely better for a later dinner. The food is great too. You have to do the salsa tower!
Une petite place très surprenante .... D'un côté le bar et de l'autre le restaurant. La Margarita est très bonne du cote bar et que dire de la guacamole en entrée ...une des meilleures que j'ai mangé! Je recommande chaudement ce restaurant !!!
This place is amazing! The food is authentic, the vibe is subterranean, and the service is spot on. I think this is the best Mexican restaurant in NYC. The attached bar was perfect for a before and after dinner pulque drink. This will definitely be on my regular dining rotation!
This was my first trip to NYC and a friend recommended Pulqueria, and what a recommendation .... We had fabulous food followed by a great evening in the bar ........a must go !!
Great Mexican food right in the middle of Chinatown!
Had a lovely early dinner here. Just a few diners when we arrived so it was nice and quiet. By the time we left (9pm) the place had filled up with a nice festive crowd. This place has a great decor and feel, and a delicious assortment of salsas and sauces. All the food was flavorful and nicely cooked. Recommended.
Explosive and flavorful. That's how i'd describe the food. Great ambiance. Attentive staff. Hostess was vey accommodating with our seating. First, we were early; second, we're picky about our tables and she was able to successfully seat us in a most desireable location to us. One odd occurrence kept happening: music selection was all over the place. Restuarant seemed confused about which genre music to play that night. Also, music would pause many times throughout. Eventually, I had to tune out the tunes. Overall, amazing spot. Definitely returning.
Along an unnamed curved street down an unnamed stairwell and through the Pulqueria looking glass into a Mexican oasis. Cute bar, scene for urban hipsters, and in fact some really tasty food. Service not as good as the food, servers busy managing 'the scene'. Loved the enchiladas, the guacamole, a delicious corn side/appetizer. Great place, anomaly in the 'hood.
After getting past the sketchy, almost hidden, entrance; you've found a gem! Once you walk down the stairs, you enter a surprising ambiance! An overall romantic feel, but a fun atmosphere for a group, especially if you order some of their trademark margaritas or fermented agave! The food is upscale Mexican food, with delicious and unique elements of flair. They are very accommodating for good allergies and their chips, corn tortillas and other options are gluten free. My only 'complaint' is the variety of portion sizes, the tacos are quite small while the enchiladas are an average size. Definitely get the guacamole de casa or the Mexican street corn! Delicious options! Great food, fun/ romantic atmosphere& delicious drinks!
We chose resturant for its Gluten free options. Delicious queso with mushrooms $11, guacamole $14, margaritas $14 are yummy & strong! Waitress all business not very friendly. I thought was slightly expensive for what you get. Two tacos 3in diameter $14 actually $14 is the number for many things. No signage so look for the address # we walked right by.
Good romantic spot ! Great cocktails ! Food was excellent but portions are small !
Our server was great-very friendly, happy to explain the drink menu and food menu. Pointed me towards the tamarindo pulque drink, which was excellent. I had the pork confit tacos, which were good, similar to tacos I have had other places. He also told us how to get into Apotheke next door, where we had more awesome drinks in a great atmosphere.
I love love love Pulqueria the food and the ambience outweighs the lacks service. The waiters are non chalant but a bit too out of it. The busboys are on point and the chef is a MASTER. The special margaritas are to die for.
Pulqueria is one of the most interesting restaurants in NYC, for locale, food prep, ambiance, and more. love it, and it stays great. But about tmw they served coffee (or tea). Just doesn't finish a meal without it! It is the number 1 request/complaint n the place. Time to deal: Pulqueria could be perfect if they did.
The vibe is so downtown hip and chic. Loved everything. Amazing for a date or for a group. The music got a little too loud at the end, but I asked our server if they could turn it down and they did! I thought that was amazing. The food was fantastic. We've been twice. We enjoyed the Enchiladas Verde and the Carne Asada over the tacos, but the tacos were good too. The drinks could be stronger but they are tasty. Will be back over and over...

You know how on TPU's home page it lists last forum topics that have been posted on the most recently that are on the right hand side of the screen, I think it is like, 8 or 10 topics in total. I would like that the most, maybe with a built in a quick reply just by clicking on the app itself. Edit: I think this feature would provide short term and long term benefits as TPU for me personally has been the place to go when I need a question answered. Having this quick feed and ability to quick reply would be pretty great for a lot of people. As mentioned below, it would easily be transferred to Windows 8 Phone's/Tablets, making helpful answers all that much easier and faster.
If you do go ahead with that, then pretty much the phone app. Just write it for windows. Perhaps, a live feed for news reviews etc. But honestly, that's as far as I would go.
Keep in mind that if you do make something for Metro, it could easily be ported to Windows Phone 7 too.
I would prefer an app that helps me get laid though in all honesty, you are the W1zzard after all, I'm tired of being 24 and a virgin, make it happen. xD
I would love it ,To Be on Metro Start and click the Power Button...Instant web page for my daily read of hardware and stuff.Heck I`m on Facebook...Wonder if there is an App for that .......
from the screen looks good , but until now i dont think its pretty important since you can access TPU from browser and have all of the function and with that apps, it just slightly different from what you look in browser but maybe theres something that W1zz gonna offer with the apps
It's a PC, not a mobile device. I'm a little baffled as to why any ordinary web browser wouldn't be enough. It might look neat, but I don't see it being necessary. Now now, just because someone doesn't like change doesn't mean they should kill themselves.
canned. if someone is interested in making any app for any device, contact me. i'll gladly provide the APIs
But, why an app when you can use the browser? a page could be formatted in a similar fashion without doing a OS-dependant app! The app would be useful if it would allow to off-line reading.
kinda didnt like the programming model, that it forced me to develop under windows 8 and don't expect much from windows 8 either and that

Step 3: Select or Upgrade to a Certified EHR
Selecting an EHR system is a critical decision and a significant planning task. There are different opinions regarding when the selection of an EHR system should be made in the planning phase. Some practices go through the planning process and develop the selection criteria they wish to use. Other practices begin by selecting an EHR system and then conduct planning to support the selected EHR system. Most practices develop an initial plan to identify their key goals, select an EHR system that supports these goals, and then finalize their plan after the selection.
After establishing the practice's objective(s) and planning how EHRs will affect workflows, the leadership team and staff can determine what to look for when considering and selecting an EHR system. The following are several considerations for EHR software comparison that the Regional Extension Centers (RECs) have found useful over the past several months:
- Understand if and how a vendor's product will accomplish the key goals of the practice. Essentially, a test drive of your specific needs with the vendor's product. Provide the vendor with patient and office scenarios that they may use to customize their product demonstration
- Clarify start-up pricing before selecting an EHR system (hardware, software, maintenance and upgrade costs, option of phased payments, interfaces for labs and pharmacies, cost to connect to health information exchange (HIE), customized quality reports)
- Define implementation support (amount, schedule, information on trainer(s) such as their communication efficiency and experience with product and company)
- Clarify roles, responsibilities, and costs for data migration strategy if desired. Sometimes, being selective with which data or how much data to migrate can influence the ease of transition
- Server options (e.g., client server, application service provider (ASP), software as a service (SAS))
- Ability to integrate with other products (e.g., practice management software, billing systems, and public health interfaces)
- Privacy and security capabilities and back-up planning
- Linking payments and EHR incentive rewards to implementation milestones and performance goals
- Vendor's stability and/or market presence in region
- Cost to connect to HIE
- Consider costs of using legal counsel for contract review verses open sources through medical associations

Physicists find a way to study coldest objects in the universe
December 2, 2013 8:24 am | CommentsThey are the coldest objects in the universe and are so fragile that even a single photon can heat and destroy them. Known as Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) and consisting of just a cluster of atoms, it has up until now been impossible to measure and control these remarkable forms of matter simultaneously.
Nanoscale coatings improve stability, efficiency of devices for renewable fuel generation
December 2, 2013 8:14 am | CommentsSplitting water into its components, two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen, is an important first step in achieving carbon-neutral fuels to power our transportation infrastructure. Now, North Carolina State Univ. researchers and colleagues from the Univ. of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have shown that a specialized coating technique can make certain water-splitting devices more stable and more efficient.
When aluminum outshines gold
December 2, 2013 8:02 am | CommentsHumble aluminum's plasmonic properties may make it far more valuable than gold and silver for certain applications, according to new research by Rice Univ. scientists. Because aluminum, as nanoparticles or nanostructures, displays optical resonances across a much broader region of the spectrum than either gold or silver, it may be a good candidate for harvesting solar energy and for other large-area optical devices and materials.
3-D images, with only one photon per pixel
December 2, 2013 7:49 am | by Larry Hardesty, MIT News Office | CommentsLidar rangefinders gauge depth by emitting short bursts of laser light and measuring the time it takes for reflected photons to arrive back and be detected. In Science, researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Research Laboratory of Electronics describe a new lidar-like system that can gauge depth when only a single photon is detected from each location.

Thermo Fisher Scientific receives clearance for Life Technologies acquisition
November 27, 2013 11:44 am | CommentsThe European Commission has approved the pending acquisition of Life Technologies Corp. by Thermo Fisher Scientific, which has committed to divest its cell culture (sera and media), gene modulation and magnetic beads businesses to expedite the approval. Combined, these businesses had 2012 revenue of approximately $225 million.
Unusual greenhouse gases may have raised ancient Martian temperature
November 27, 2013 11:36 am | by Anne Danahy, Penn State Univ. | CommentsThe presence of molecular hydrogen, in addition to carbon dioxide and water, could have created a greenhouse effect on Mars 3.8 billion years ago that pushed temperatures high enough to allow for liquid water. This is according to a team of researchers who believe this is the only way for giant canyons like Nanedi Valles could have formed.
Citizen scientists, PCs help discover gamma-ray pulsars
November 27, 2013 9:49 am | CommentsEinstein@Home creates a global supercomputer by connecting more than 350,000 participants that contribute to a variety of scientific projects, particularly astronomy, by conducting distributed analysis routines with their home computers. This resource has already found several pulsars hidden in radio telescope data. Now, "citizen scientists" have helped researchers discover four new gamma-ray pulsars.
Engineer, cardiologist team up to make implanted devices "sticky"
November 27, 2013 9:24 am | by Eric Swedlund, Univ. of Arizona | CommentsUniv. of Arizona agricultural and biosystems engineering associate professor Jeong-Yeol Yoon and cardiology professor Dr. Marvin Slepian are testing nanotextured surfaces to improve how cardiovascular implant devices are attached in the body. The goal is to create a selectively sticky surface, favoring endothelial cell attachment, without favoring platelet attachment.
New effect couples electricity and magnetism in materials
November 27, 2013 9:07 am | CommentsIn materials science, electric and magnetic effects have usually been studied separately. There are, however, extraordinary materials called "multiferroics", in which electric and magnetic excitations are closely linked. Scientists in Austria have now shown in an experiment that magnetic properties and excitations can be influenced by an electric voltage.
Celebration of a Persian mystic leads to better understanding of dynamics
November 27, 2013 9:00 am | CommentsStuck inside on a rainy, dreary day in France, two physicists and an engineer stumbled on a television program about whirling dervishes. The film caused them to discuss structures with conical symmetry, or rotating flexible structures with a conical shape. Their thoughts have become the basis for a recent technical paper, which uses understandings of Coriolis force to develop simple explanatory equations.
Iron preserves, hides ancient tissues in fossilized remains
November 27, 2013 8:56 am | CommentsNew research from North Carolina State Univ. shows that iron may play a role in preserving ancient tissues within dinosaur fossils, but also may hide them from detection. The finding could open the door to the recovery of more ancient tissues from within fossils.
Newly identified protein provides target for antibiotic-resistant hospital bacterium
November 27, 2013 8:49 am | CommentsResearchers have made inroads into tackling a bacterium that plagues hospitals and is highly resistant to most antibiotics. They determined the 3-D structure and likely function of a new protein in this common bacterium that attacks those with compromised immune systems.
Comet dances with sun, death; giving mixed signals
November 27, 2013 8:46 am | by Seth Borenstein, AP Science Writer | CommentsComet ISON will be only about 1 million miles away from the sun's super-hot surface during its close encounter on Thanksgiving. On Monday, it looked like it was about to die even before it got there. On Tuesday, it appeared healthy again. Will it meet a fiery death (or survive) when it whips around the sun on Thursday? Scientists haven't seen a comet behave this way before.
Scientists invent implantable slimming aid
November 27, 2013 6:22 am | by Peter Rüegg, ETH Zurich | CommentsA new innovation may help us deal with post-Thanksgiving guilt: Biotechnologists have constructed a genetic regulatory circuit from human components that monitors blood-fat levels. In response to excessive levels, it produces a messenger substance that signals satiety to the body. Tests on obese mice reveal that this helps them to lose weight.

Now for some fresh pickings from the political grapevine a reply all fail for the Los Angeles police department.

Cold weather is tough on cars and other mechanical equipment. Many automobile devices we depend upon to operate a car just do not work so well when you have sub-zero temperatures. Just as examples, one of our vehicles left town on the hook when the transmission stopped working. The transmission was fixed due to a factory defect recall. Another vehicle has a tie down strap holding together the tail pipe and still another doesn't always steer. Many other vehicles rest under snow in driveways and yards. When the weather warms we can have a fix-it-up day.
Last Friday, Rumford Police, Oxford County Sheriffs and State Police spent much of the evening looking for a man who became upset with his family and ran into the woods in Rumford near Hanover. After several hours of wallowing around in the snow he must have gotten cold and he came out of the woods on his own and talked with the police.
We checked recent additions to northeasthikes.com and found that Daren Worcester along with his brother Brad had hiked from Grafton Notch to Baldpate Mountain several weeks ago. The website has many lovely photos of the snowshoe trip. The trail was quite hard to follow with snow covering many of the Appalachian Trail markers. The ice-covered summit was too slick to venture out on and they turned back. Last winter Daren climbed Mt. Washington by himself. Daren and Brad have hiked through most of New Hampshire and all of Maine to Mt. Katahdin on the Appalachian Trail.
Rumford Grange 115 met last Saturday for the January meeting. There were 10 members attending. The Grangers worked on their schedule for the year.

The BAT Artventure Collection Part III Realises $1,608,776
Robert Indiana, Four Panel Love. Estimate: 5.000 7.000. Photo: Sotheby's.
This evening,
final auction to be staged in the Netherlands, Part III of the sale of the world-renowned BAT ArtVenture Collection, formerly known as The Peter Stuyvesant Collection, realised a total of 1,214,904 / £1,040,605 / $1,608,776, a figure more than double pre-sale expectations of 500,000. Pre-sale interest had been remarkable and more than 240 clients registered to bid in tonights sale, which concluded to a round of applause after the auctioneers hammer fell on the final lot. The auction also established outstanding sell-through rates of 94.3% by lot and 98.2% by value.
These notable results further build on the outstanding success established by Sothebys Amsterdam with the sales of the first and second parts of the collection in 2010 and 2011. Including the sale of the first two parts, The BAT Artventure Collection, formerly known as The Peter Stuyvesant Collection has brought an outstanding combined total of 17,747,104 / £15,886,937 / $24,405,015, which represents the highest total achieved for any auction series ever staged in the Netherlands.
The top-selling lot of tonights auction was Patrick Herons Big Violet with Red and Blue: March 1955. Two telephone bidders competed for the oil on canvas, which brought 111,150, more than double the pre-sale estimate (est. 50,00070,000). Herons paintings of the mid 1960s and early 1970s are probably his most instantly recognisable works.
Commenting on the results of the sale, Rob Sneep, Senior Specialist of Sothebys Contemporary Art Department in Amsterdam, said: We are absolutely thrilled with this amazing result which is true testament to the desirability and quality of the works from this remarkable collection. In addition to bidding from the Netherlands in this evenings auction we also witnessed a extraordinary depth of international activity, which came from almost every corner of the globe. It has been a privilege for Sothebys to have handled the sale of this legendary corporate collection and the total achieved for the entire offering is perfectly fitting.
Mark Grol, Directeur Général Délégué for Sothebys Paris business and Sothebys executive responsible for overseeing the companys activities in the Netherlands, said: The outstanding results achieved this evening for the third and final part of the BAT sales series, and the overall result for the entire BAT collection, represent a fitting tribute to Sothebys final auction in the Netherlands, as the company transitions into a new phase of its presence in the country.
The second highest price established in tonights sale was for Adolf Luthers, Kinetisches Hohlspiegel Objekt. Three bidders competed for the 36 rotating, concave round mirrors of aluminium covered steel, which sold for 90,750, above pre-sale expectations (est. 40,00060,000).
Untitled by Japanese artist Atsuko Tanaka also performed exceptionally well, bringing the third highest price of the evening. Executed in 1964, the enamel paint on canvas work was hotly contested for and commanded 66,750, more than 20 times pre-sale expectations (est. 2,0003,000). The fourth highest price in tonights sale was also achieved for a work entitled Untitled, executed a year earlier in 1963, by Atsuko Tanaka, which brought the well-above expectations sum of 60,750 (est. 2,000-3,000).
Antony Donaldsons Bring it to Jerome established a new artist record with the price achieved of 27,150, almost ten times pre-sale expectations (est. 2,000-3,000); and Untitled by Jean Pierre Pincemin also performed very well - no fewer than six bidders on the telephone competed for his acrylic on canvas, which sold for 48,750, almost six times pre-sale expectations (est. 7,0009,000).
Sothebys and the Netherlands
While this evenings auction, which concludes the most successful Sales Series ever staged by any auction house in the Netherlands, represents the companys last auction in the country, Sothebys will retain a key presence in Amsterdam. Importantly, our Dutch clients remain vital to the companys international business and to continue providing them with the best level of service in the region Sothebys will maintain its presence in Amsterdam. Our goal is to further enrich the service we provide to all our Dutch clients, based in the Netherlands and abroad, who wish to transact in our global selling centres (New York, London, Hong Kong, Paris and Geneva) where the market is international and extremely focused on the sale of artworks of the highest quality. In the Netherlands, Sothebys will continue to provide services to its clients which include hosting travelling exhibitions of international auction highlights, lectures on collecting by Sothebys specialists, valuations, advice on transacting, and private treaty sales.
Guillaume Cerutti, recently appointed Deputy Chairman Sothebys Europe, will assume overall responsibility for the Netherlands, as well as France, Belgium and Italy. Mark Grol, who will be based in France in his new role as Directeur Général Délégué for the Paris business, will continue to work closely with the Amsterdam office and oversee Sothebys activities in the Netherlands.

"I Am BioLogos"
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
In this series, Ryan Pettey offers several clips from his powerful documentary "From the Dust". This feature-length film is divided up into various sections, each of which wrestles with the difficult problems that arise when reconciling Scripture with the theory of evolution. A light of hope dawns on the science-faith conversation, however, as scientists and theologians engage in honest dialogue about tough issues such as the interpretation of Genesis, the nature of the Fall, and the idea of random design. Their profound insights are sure to enlighten all minds, raise deeper questions, and provoke new thought.
Today we draw your attention to a couple of short term projects that have been completed and are now visible on our site: Our History and Small Group Resources.
There is no formula for generating beliefs in people. There are plenty of people with access to the same facts who end up believing different things. But for many Christians—like the ones I heard from this week—access to information about the position we call "evolutionary creation" could make a significant difference for reconciling science and Christian faith.
A deep love for scripture, coupled (ironically) with a lifelong struggle with religious doubt, led Robert Boyle to write several important books relating scientific and religious knowledge. We explore aspects of this fascinating interaction.
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
We are often offended that God should have to accomplish anything in steps, as though that made him less divine and all-powerful. But engaging a child can be a fruitful remedy for the biases that have been woven into the fabric of our thinking over time.
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
People who believe in miracles usually don't think of them as God's "breaking" the laws of nature but as God's being constantly attentive to his cosmos.
We're pleased to introduce the first official commercials for BioLogos, produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and featuring BioLogos vice president Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright.
Last month, we announced the 37 grantees from our Evolution & Christian Faith program! This month, we take a closer look at the projects and what's "in the pipeline" over the coming years from these grantees!
In this series, Kathryn Applegate addresses the concern that randomness implies the absence of God's activity and involvement in the natural world. She begins by clearing up some common misconceptions about the concept of "randomness", and later focuses on the mechanisms of the immune system to demonstrate that God works through random processes to preserve life. Far from being an indication of a "godless" universe, one might conclude that randomness is one of God's favorite mechanisms for creating and sustaining life!
In this four part series, David Opderbeck explores the interesting relationship between God and his creation. He first looks at his transcendence over the material world. In one respect, God is completely distinct from all creation, yet he is also immanent, or present within all creation. Another aspect of God reflected in creation is his Triune nature. Just as love, fellowship, and delight exist within the Trinity, so these characteristics are present in the world, and experienced by humans. He completes his thoughts with a discussion about God's interaction with humans.
The problem is that as human beings, we know that goodness exists, so it must be accounted for, and if one is a staunch believer in scientism, it must be accounted for scientifically.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
With great pleasure, the Board of Directors of The BioLogos Foundation announces the appointment of Deborah Haarsma to become our next President, and of Jeffrey Schloss to the role of Senior Scholar. Professor Haarsma assumes leadership from our outgoing President Darrel Falk, to whom we owe a tremendous debt of gratitude.
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.

Here's a special little story I created just for you while you're patiently waiting the release of my new books. It's a bittersweet romance; a stirring tale of one sweet woman's unfaltering belief in the man she loves--complete with illustrations. I hope you enjoy it!
This is Lucinda Jane Abernathy. Lucy is 81.
And here's Lucinda's husband of 10 years, Reginald Barcliff Abernathy III. Reggie is 93. He's a rascal and a rogue. Some might even say he's a cradle robber for snatching up a sweet young thing 12 years his junior.
It seemed to everyone who knew them that Lucy and Reggie had an ideal marriage...that they adored each other and were deeply in love.
While Reggie had always had a reputation as an outrageous flirt and a bit of a womanizer, most people thought it was just part of his roguish charm.
But Lucinda knew different. Old Reggie had a real wild side. She'd caught him dallying with that 70-something floozy from bingo more than once.
He'd sometimes come home drunk as a skunk at the outrageous hour of 9 p.m., long after most men his age were fast asleep and sawing logs. Lucy knew he'd been out philandering because of the hours-long tenting of the sheets after he plopped into bed, sprawled on his back. Yes, it was clear he'd been taking his happy pills again.
Lucy had come to accept his boozing and infidelity because she loved Reggie so dearly, but she had a more difficult time coming to terms with his gambling addiction. Month after month she watched their retirement income dwindle after Reggie gave in to yet another bingo rampage. And then there were all those shopping sprees for his snappy fedoras and snazzy bow ties.
Things got so bad that sometimes there was no food in the house for days and poor Lucy was starving. The utility companies kept threatening to turn off their services. Lucy was frightened and didn't know what to do. She tried reasoning with Reggie about his gambling problem and fashionista shopaholic tendencies. He always offered a tearful apology, promising he'd do better and pledging his undying love for Lucy.
As always, Lucy forgave her beloved Reggie and believed his endless promises, trusting that one day he really would change...because he loved her as much as she loved him. But, sadly, Reggie's inborn urge to be bad was just too strong.
One day poor, starving Lucy did something shameful...something she'd never, ever done before. She stole some food. A can of peaches. She couldn't help it. She was so terribly weak from hunger, lightheaded, and becoming more frail by the day. Unfortunately, Lucy was nabbed by the cops for shoplifting. She was booked, fingerprinted, given a standard issue orange jumpsuit, and had a mug shot taken.
She was only allowed one call and, of course, she phoned her beloved Reggie, explaining what happened and begging him to come down and keep her from spending time in jail for her shameful crime. Reggie, of course, rushed to his wife's side, soothing and calming her.
At the hearing, the judge asked Lucinda what she had stolen. "A can of peaches, your honor," she said. He asked her why she would do such a terrible thing. "Because I was so very hungry, sir," she explained.
The judge contemplated for a moment while Reggie wrapped an arm around his wife's shoulder, comforting and supporting her. "Everything's going to be all right, Lucy," he promised her. "Your Reggie is here, my love."
The judge asked Lucy how many peaches were in the can. "There were six," she replied, feeling so much better because Reggie was there at her side. He may have been a rogue and a gambler, but she knew he loved her and wouldn't let anything bad happen to her.
Nodding solemnly, the judge repeated, "Six peaches." Then he said, "That will be six days in jail, Mrs. Abernathy."
"What?! For just six peaches?" Lucy cried out. "Oh no! Reggie...oh my dear Reggie, do something," Lucy pleaded, clutching her husband's arm and sobbing. "Please...do something. They want to lock me up, away from you for six whole days and nights!"
"Six peaches...six days and nights..." Reggie said, gazing intently into his distraught, peach-thieving wife's eyes. "Your honor," he addressed the judge, "may I say something on my dear wife's behalf?"
His gavel in midair as he was about to pronounce sentencing, the judge stopped. "Certainly, Mr. Abernathy. What is it you wish to say to the court?"
"Well, sir, Lucinda also stole a can of peas. The giant, economy size."
And that, dear friends, is the sad and tragic tale of poor, sweet, trusting Lucinda Jane Abernathy. She is due to be out of jail in another 1,436 days.

A bucolic 15-acre Connecticut retreat heads to auction on October 16 through Concierge Auctions.

"This client is committed to being the next luxury estate to sell in Litchfield County," stated Sniffen. "Not only are the property's 15 acres picturesque and expansive, but the home itself is new and exquisitely-constructed, while only a two-hour commute to New York City. "
The 7,500-square-foot home has six bedrooms and 4,500 square feet of outdoor living space. The large stone entryway that makes use of reclaimed material excavated from the property. The massive stone fireplace is the heart of the Great Room, which has 30 foot ceilings and enormous windows. The formal living room has an old-world cast iron gas fireplace, and the library offers ample seating and spectacular views of the wraparound deck. The third floor includes an office suite and the basement has more than 1,900 square feet of space for indoor entertainment, including an exercise room and theater.

Reviewer : | Indefatigable | Rating : | |
Review : | A very well-made episode, but actually quite hard to review. It's interesting to see a different side to the Borg this time. Guinan's change of heart made sense somehow, acting as a foil for Picard (no pun intended). I also liked the way that people didn't simply switch positions just like that, and continued to do their duty even though they disagreed with it. That showed Starfleet officers acting like professionals, something the writers should let them do a lot more. The scene where Picard meets Hugh in the ready room and acts as though he is still Locutus was very well done. You can see how it tipped the balance, and it gave his decision a real justification. It all made sense. | ||
Reviewer : | Kevin T. | Rating : | |
Review : | The stupidest episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and perhaps shows everything wrong with the Jean Luc's idealism. He refused to sacrifice the individuality of one being to destroy a pseudo-race that's modus operandi is destroying individuality. For the life of one person, they decide not to take the opportunity to destroy a vicious collective that has killed and assimilated trillions. In Descent, Vice Admiral Alynna Nechayev calls Picard out on this, as well she should. But, it was after the fact. In truth, this was one big episode where the writers wanted to dangle the Borg's destruction in front of the audience, then pull it away because the Borg are way too popular. | ||

JERICHO, NY -- It may have been senior night at Jericho High School, but it was a junior that stole the spotlight.
Jericho junior Garrett Johnson scored 26 points, 20 of them coming in the second half as the Jayhawks rallied past Roslyn, 53-45 in front of a capacity crowd on Senior Night.
With the victory, Jericho (11-5 overall, 7-2 conf.) assured itself of a second place finish in Conference A-I.
With only six points in the first sixteen minutes of his game and his team trailing by just as many, Johnson knew he had to take over.
"We just had to take the game to them and execute our plays," the star junior said following the game. "We ended up pulling out the win."
Jericho trailed all game, but the super junior made sure the Jayhawks were trailing no longer. Johnson ended up draining three shots from beyond the three-point arc for nine points in the third quarter to bring the Jayhawks within one.
That deficit would be no more as the final frame began as Jordan Brett's bucket gave Jericho its first lead of the game.
After Roslyn regained the lead early on, Johnson took over once again, scoring 11 of Jericho's next 12 points as the Jayhawks sealed the victory with a 12-2 run to close out the game.
The Jayhawks also established a much faster pace to the game in order to cut the deficit slowly but surely.
"It was tiring," said senior Leo Weiner. "We never stopped working and we played as hard as we can."
However in the end it was Weiner and his fellow seniors that celebrated the win over its league rival.
"This game was the most important game we had so far."

What are some of the Best Colognes on the Market that can act as a Pheromone and Women Love?
These are just colognes & not pheromones per se, but I like them, have had good responses about them from girls and most importantly to me... the Mrs. likes them.
Spring/Summer sents:
Light Blue - Dolce & Gabana
L'Homme - Yves Saint Laurent
Any season sent:
Fierce - Abercrombie
Fall/Winter sents:
Very Sexy 2 - Victoria Secret
Aqva - Bvlgari
Strongest On The Market
RECOVERBRO: Est. Post #3222
MY SWEAT!!! I should bottle it all up and sell it!! Just call it.... SWEET SWEAT!
I'm married also, when we go out I wear JOOP. I notice that I get looks from other girls, could be the joop or could be my strikengly rugged good looks!! Probably the JOOP though....
Calvin Klein - escape
Giorgio Armani- Aqua di gio
All i remember from when I actually bought cologne haha. My wife actually loves my Axe deodorant..and that fact that i wear it once in a while bwhahaa.
It has a really funky smell to It.
My Fiance bought me Abercrombie Colden or something like that. Everyone at the office notices It and always asks me about it. I love the smell of it.
And IMO, Phermones or w.e. don't work. The idea of the crap Is retarded. If you are a big fat pale kid are you going to get laid by tons of women just for wearing good cologne? Answer Is no. If anything, the idea behind It is to give you a confidence boost, bout It.
Quit being a puss, hit the town, and mack on some bitches.
Lacoste essentials or Joop. You really can't go wrong with either.
The One-Dolce & Gabana
If the ladies you know like vanilla, they are gonna love this.
Obsession--Calvin Klein
Drakkar Noir--Guy Laroche
Eternity--Calvin Klein
Pari Ellis
these smell real good oh and i cant forget
Lucky-ive had chicks that would hug me at parties hold on just a little long and smell me.
I always rock A n F Fierce. Something about it
Serious Nutrition Solutions
cacharel- amor pour homme
this one is a great one, very heard to get in the states though
my girlfriend just bought me touch from burberry, and that one smells quite nice as well.
and both of diesels colognes have a good scent as well.
Try the new Abercrombie Colden or something like that. My fiance got me It and I love It. It doesn't get that funky smell like you do after wearing fierce awhile. Also nearly every guy but JoopMan In this world wears It. You go to a party, and every guy smells the same, weird.
I can vouch for YSL's L'homme. That is the greatest scent on earth!! They even came out with a muskier version of L'homme called Le nuit de l'homme which is incredible.
The Blue from Polo is great as a sporty cologne. Black by Kenith Cole is good. And my second all time favorite is Burberry's original men's cologne.
And for those who like a spicy cologne, you can't go wrong with Juicy's Dirty English or a John Varvatos classic cologne.

9.3 Web usage analysisGuidelineWeb Usage Analysis is provided by CIOK and in this context refers to the usage of FAO owned Web sites by the global Web user community. CIO monitors the Web site and generates automated reports from the logs of the Web servers and maintains and configures Google Analytics profiles. Further, CIO can provide assistance in obtaining meaning and actionable information from those reports, and in providing suggestions regarding which other reports might be helpful. To request statistics for your site, including specific directories or any special requirements your site may have (e.g. aliases, redirects and multiple locations), contact: firstname.lastname@example.com. Statistics on visits, visitors, top pages etc. can help you understand what visitors do on your Web site, help you spot its strengths and weaknesses, and take any needed action to improve the site, information and service for your visitors. From traffic analysis you can also obtain data on the types of computer and browser your visitors used to access your site. ToolsIn FAO there are currently two main tools used to produce Web access statistics: AWSTATS and Google Analytics.
Automated crawlersWeb sites are visited both by users with browsers and also by automated software which systematically download pages, called crawlers or spiders. Typically, automated software is trying to harvest information about the site and the largest amount of traffic from automated crawlers is from search engines keeping their indexes up to date. Generally speaking Web traffic analysis tries to gather information about what real users are doing on the site. It can also be important to know something about automated access to the site too. For example, if all or part of your site cannot be found in search engine results, it's worth checking to see if the crawlers have visited all parts of your site that should be represented in search engine indexes. Likewise it's not always possible to eliminate all crawler activity from the statistics, either because technology does not allow it (such as in the case of FTP server statistics, the FTP server itself doesn't record the kind of software visiting the site as there is no scope to gather that information in the FTP protocol). Or in some cases, crawlers may pretend to be users. They can occasionally be detected by seeing a large amount of activity from single IP addresses, that don't involve downloading of images, while other crawlers can be extremely subtle behaving exactly like a user and so are impossible to detect. These are, however, exceptions. Separation of FAO and non-FAO usageIn general, Web statistics separate access from internal FAO users to access from external users in order to have a better idea on how many non-FAO users access sites. Detection of FAO usage v's non-FAO usage is done by IP address. Internal users includes the regional offices, sub-regional offices, country offices and liaison offices (because they use the same IP 168.202.x.x address). Only a handful of small offices are not on the WAN, but they come through the Internet with public addresses. |

The very funny Jeffrey Tambor was caught on set joining three regulars of the USA Network hit comedy Psych in Vancouver. Here he is spotted filming scenes for the upcoming season with star James Roday and the backs of his co-stars, Corbin Bernsen, Maggie Lawson and Dule Hill. From YVRshoots.com:
"He's in Vancouver to film a Psych parody of The In-Laws (the 1979 comedy classic starring Peter Falk and Alan Arkin), with Corbin Bernsen as Shawn's father and Jeffrey Tambor as Juliet's stepfather."
PICTURES: Check out more on the Dule Hill page
This is going to be hilarious. Jeffrey Tambor is so funny in all of the roles he pays. My favorite was George Bluth Sr. on Arrested Development. That show is one of my all time favorites and I hope the movie turns out to be just as good. Please, Hollywood, Do Not F**k This One Up! I mean it.
