With the capabilities of NFC technology, mobile devices will become even more crucial to individuals than they already are today.
Near field communication (NFC) is taking mobile marketing to a whole new level. (NFC is a form of contactless communication between devices like smartphones or tablets that allows a user to wave their personal communication device over a NFC-compatible device to send information without needing to touch the devices together or go through multiple steps to set up a connection.) The short range wireless RFID technology is poised to bring marketers and consumers together like never before, as it paves the way for the instant exchange of all sorts of content and data.
NFC has such a broad range of applications that the much less sophisticated quick response (QR) codes pale in comparison. Although QR technologies can be effective for delivering information to consumers, NFC technologies take this concept much further, allowing information to be instantaneously transferred and exchanged between individuals and organizations. NFC has much greater functional uses and the potential to ultimately transform the way that business is conducted. Here are a couple of examples:
NFC also has a number of other potential applications that could be far reaching, impacting the way business is done for transit systems, healthcare providers, banks, ticketing outlets, and more. It could also be used to provide things like electronic keyless entry. The potential for increased revenue and reduced expenses makes this technology very appealing for a variety of organizations.
NFC capabilities are currently being incorporated into the networks of mobile carriers, as this technology is set to become the new standard for location-based marketing and communications in the near future. Interestingly, Apple decided not to enable the iPhone 5 with NFC technology, which is allowing the competition to pave the way for the breakthrough technology instead.
With the capabilities of NFC technology, mobile devices will become even more crucial to individuals than they already are today. Will it become the standard of exchange for business transactions, eventually replacing credit cards and even cash for the average consumer? In what ways will your business use NFC technologies to make a greater impact in the marketplace?

Damian Browne knows better than most that Group One races aren't decided by a popularity contest.
If they were, Buffering would already be a Group One winner instead of chasing his first success at the elite level in Saturday's BTC Cup (1200m) at Eagle Farm.
"They don't hand out Group Ones to horses because they deserve them, they've got to earn them," he said.
"There's no doubt he's a Group One horse. You've only got to look at the horses that have beaten him like the great mare (Black Caviar) and Hay List."
Browne is adamant Buffering is in the right shape to win the BTC Cup after his dominant first-up win in the Victory Stakes at Doomben.
"He ran exceptional time, his second-up record is just as good and he's going into the race as well as he could be," he said.
Buffering has drawn barrier seven in the 11-horse field while arch-rival Rain Affair has fared much better in gate two.
"I would've preferred it to be the other way around because it would've given me the choice of either holding the front or handing up to Rain Affair," Browne said.
"It's probably not a major issue but it's never great going into these races and having only one option."
Browne expects Rain Affair to pour the pressure on from the outset but will wait until he speaks to trainer Robert Heathcote before settling on a definitive riding strategy.
"Rain Affair will go quick, that's his nature, and I'm pretty sure Buffering will be able to settle on his outside without using up too much energy," he said.
Buffering had his final fast workout on the course proper at Doomben on Tuesday morning when he was ridden by Browne and accompanied by his stablemate Bribie.
"He wasn't out there to break any records but he felt terrific and worked well," he said.
"He only had to do a bit of work to tick him over."
The gelding is one of Browne's favourite horses, although he reserves a soft spot for Woorim whom he rode to victory in last year's Oakleigh Plate.
"Woorim's always got a special place in my heart, not just for the races he won, but for the way he won them coming from what looked like impossible positions," he said.
"But Buffering's certainly right up there and what I love about him is his guts. If every horse tried like him it would make life a lot easier."

BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine 2012, 12:97 doi:10.1186/1472-6882-12-97Published: 17 July 2012
Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) has frequently been used to treat tinnitus, and acupuncture is a particularly popular option. The objective of this review was to assess the evidence concerning the effectiveness of acupuncture as a treatment for tinnitus.
Fourteen databases were searched from the dates of their creation to July 4th, 2012. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) were included if acupuncture was used as the sole treatment. The Cochrane risk of bias tool was used to assess the risk of bias.
A total of 9 RCTs met all the inclusion criteria. Their methodological quality was mostly poor. Five RCTs compared the effectiveness of acupuncture or electroacupuncture with sham acupuncture for treating tinnitus. The results failed to show statistically significant improvements. Two RCTs compared a short one-time scalp acupuncture treatment with the use of penetrating sham acupuncture at non-acupoints in achieving subjective symptom relief on a visual analog scale; these RCTs demonstrated significant positive effects with scalp acupuncture. Two RCTs compared acupuncture with conventional drug treatments. One of these RCTs demonstrated that acupuncture had statistically significant effects on the response rate in patients with nervous tinnitus, but the other RCT did not demonstrate significant effects in patients with senile tinnitus.
The number, size and quality of the RCTs on the effectiveness of acupuncture for the treatment of tinnitus are not sufficient for drawing definitive conclusions. Further rigorous RCTs that overcome the many limitations of the current evidence are warranted.

Anti-wind residents want Shumlin helpSeptember 07,2013THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWARK Residents in the Vermont town of Newark are asking Gov. Peter Shumlin to appeal a state ruling that would allow a developer to erect test towers to monitor wind speeds in the area.
Seneca Mountain wants to erect the test towers, with the goal of building about 35 turbines in Newark, Brighton and Ferdinand.
The Vermont Public Service Board approved the nearly 200-foot test towers, one in Newark, two in Brighton and one in Ferdinand.
Two citizen groups, Newark Neighbors United and Brighton Ridge Protectors, sent a letter this week to Shumlins office asking him to help fight the boards ruling.

The use of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has been shown to provide relief, at least temporarily. The research team led by Dong-Mei Jin published their results in using TENS in the paper Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation on Symptomatic Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy. They found some improvement in pain at 4 and 6 weeks of TENS usage, but not at 12 weeks. Publishing Electrotherapy for the Treatment of Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy, Karin Pieber's research team found significant pain improvement, up to 38% pain-free, while using TENS. However, the original pain intensity returned within a month of stopping treatment.
Low Level Laser Therapy (Cold Laser) has been a major breakthrough in controlling pain for many neuropathy patients. Cold Laser received FDA market clearance for the treatment of chronic pain in 2001, along with treatment clearance for healing wounds in 2011. Dr. Moellendorf notes, "The clinical results we sometimes see from using Cold Lasers with peripheral neuropathy almost seem miraculous. Not only do we see dramatic reductions and even total elimination of chronic pain, we are seeing increased circulation in the extremities. W

New York Giants owner John Mara made it clear earlier today that he feels like they'll be able to hammer out an extension for wide receiver Victor Cruz.
According to ProFootballTalk.com, the next 7-10 days will be very critical for both the Giants and Cruz.
A source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that talks are ongoing, and that the next 7-10 days are regarded as important to the objective of getting Cruz signed to a long-term deal with the Giants.
It's unclear why the next week or so is regarded as important, since there are no deadlines or other milestones that compel an agreement by May 17. Presumably, the Giants and Cruz would like to have the player on the field for the bulk of the Organized Team Activities that cap the offseason program.
If Cruz and the Giants can't work out a deal, he'll have to decide at some point whether he'll sign his restricted free agent tender or not. If he chooses to hold out, he won't be fined since he's not under contract. But he'll have to report by week 10 of the regular season or else he won't be able to become an unrestricted free agent after the season.

The Lovebird
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
moreA spectacularly vibrant, original debut, The Lovebird takes us from the orange-scented streets of Southern California to the vast prairie landscape of Montana, and introduces us to Margie Fitzgerald, a spirited and unforgettable heroine for our times.
Margie has always had a soft spot for helpless creatures. Her warm heart breaks, her left ovary twinges, and she is smitten with sympathy. This is how she falls in love with Simon Mellinkoff, her charismatic, obviously troubled Latin professor. As the two embark on an unconventional romance, Simon introduces Margie to his small coterie of animal rights activists, and with this ragtag group she finds her apparent mission in life. But Margie's increasingly reckless and dangerous actions force her to flee her California college town, say goodbye to her fragile dad, and seek shelter on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana. Here, against a backdrop of endless grass and sky, Margie meets a soap opera-loving grandmother, an intriguing, ink-splattered man, and an inscrutable eleven-year-old girl—and makes unexpected discoveries about her heart.
Suffused with humor and compassion, The Lovebird is a radiant novel about one young woman's love of animals, yearning for connection, and search for her place in this world. less

The NTDB would like to offer the latest version of the Software Developer's Toolkit to states and developers to implement the NTDS XML into their product. This SDK update was posted on 12/4/2014. Previous versions of the NTDS SDK may be found in the website archive.
Hi Everyone,
As Chris mentioned we have a new SDK updated for 2015 that addresses the Rule changes mentioned below. Please download this new SDK as soon as you can for readiness in 2015 so that the validation issues described do not inadvertently prevent your clients from submitting their data. Please forward this email to anyone in your organization who will need to access the new SDK:
The zip contains the usual files and documentation. The release notes highlight the changes over the previous version. As is our normal practice, the zip contains only channels for 2015 (107/207) and can/should be combined with previous years' channels in order to constitute a full Validator. The files can be copied over the previous version of the 2015 Validator. Any questions or issues at all, please let me know.

The NTDS and NHTSA 2.2.1 Connection
The XML associated with NTDS is similar to the NHTSA 2.2.1 XML, characterizing standardized pre-hospital variables. The XSDs associated with pre-hospital variables in the NTDS exactly match the same variables in the NHTSA 2.2.1 data standard. This compatibility was designed to promote data exchange. The following link provides a document in which green variables demonstrate direct XML and XSD compatability when moving from NEMSIS to NTDS. Yellow indicates variables in NEMSIS that could "inform" trauma registry abstractors, but no direct data transfer is possible (i.e., there is non-matching XML and XSDs).

For The Love Of Search
by Jason Weidner on Aug 31, 6:38 PM
When I write an article, I typically follow a process which begins with a simple question, "What fascinates me?" (not to be confused with Arsenio Hall's "Things that make me say hmmm.") I consider myself a fairly simple person--therefore the time it takes to develop an answer to this question typically is very short-lived! But recently several items have struck me as just plain intriguing.

Life After SEW For Danny Sullivan
by Gord Hotchkiss on Aug 31, 3:45 PM
This Tuesday, a bomb dropped on the search marketing community. It started, as so many stories do now online, with a simple blog post. After 10 years, Danny Sullivan was leaving Search Engine Strategies and Search Engine Watch. Jaws could be heard dropping around the world.

Natural-Born Search Killers, Part 2
by Rob Garner on Aug 30, 10:45 AM
In my Aug. 2, column, "Natural-Born Search Killers," I discussed how not having a URL strategy could kill a search presence, detailing four key elements that contribute to the value of site domains and URLs. (The elements included link equity, positive search engine equity, bookmark equity and search investment.) In this article, I will discuss a few additional elements of URL equity.

Accountability Matters
by Bill Wise on Aug 28, 1:30 PM
In my continuing discussion of the new e-Media Exchange--the auction-based ad-buying exchange driven by blue-chip advertisers with technology from e-Bay--I'd like to talk about why the push for auction-based advertising is, at its root, a push for accountability.

Strong Natural Positions Are Not A Birthright

Psst, Want A Hot Spot, Paisano?
by Gord Hotchkiss on Aug 24, 3:30 PM
Hello, my name is Gord, and I'm addicted to the Internet. I didn't realize I was addicted until I recently spent three weeks in Europe and had to go through withdrawal. But after hanging around hotel lobbies trying to get a hit from a local hot spot, I've had to face up to the fact that I can't kick the habit. I need my broadband, baby!

How Will Search Fit Into The Media Mix In 2011?
by Aaron Goldman on Aug 23, 12:00 PM
In my last column, I pointed to a recent JupiterResearch report that projected online advertising at 9 percent of overall advertising budget in 2011. Given the convergence and emerging digitization of traditional mediums like TV, radio, and print, I think we need to clarify the definition of "online" advertising--not only for the sake of having accurate projections, but for us marketing professionals to truly benchmark our efforts and innovate.

Upstate New York Employment Trends
|Number 3, December 2007
|JEL classification: R1
Authors: Jason Bram, James Orr, and RaeRosen
The upstate New York economy has been undergoing significant restructuring, with job gains in services sectors such as health care, education, business services, and leisure and hospitality offsetting losses in manufacturing. A modest upward trend is continuing in 2007, with the creation of 20,000 net new jobs—but results will be mixed across upstate metro areas. This issue of Upstate New York At-a-Glance reviews recent employment trends, highlights industry and area developments, and presents an outlook for the year.

The Room-Mating Season
MIRA Books, 2004 - Fiction - 442 pages
Leigh, Cady, Vanessa, and Susan meet when they become roommates in a townhouse on Manhattan's Upper East Side. New York in 1963 is a place of magical enchantment and infinite possibilities, especially when you're young and eager for the adventure a big city offers. Even being crammed together in a single bedroom with a kitchen too small to accommodate a table and chairs can't diminish their high spirits. A casting assistant at a talent company, Leigh is the level-headed one, the calm at the center of the whirlwind that is their lives. Cady is a prep-school teacher, emotional, passionate, and ready for love. Vanessa, a stewardess, craves her independence above all else. Susan is the wild card. Mercurial and unconventional, she makes a decision that will have far-reaching consequences in her life-and in the lives, through the years, of the others.

I've been going to this doctor for 20 years, and I'm very satisfied with the service I've received. He's careful, explains everything in terms I can understand, and correctly referred me to a specialist when he saw something unusual. Highly recommended.

In doing some quick research, the Osprey Raptor 10 looks like the pack for me. The 2013 model has had some upgrades to the 2012 model. But REI is having a closeout of the 2012 for $65. That's almost half off compared to the new model. Is the new model that much better? For $65 is the 2012 kind of steal?

A Time to Be Still
As a go-getter, it is in my nature to constantly be on the move. I would rather go do something, anything, than sit around and be idle. However, constant motion and activity do not lend themselves well to quiet time and stillness before the Lord. It has taken years to establish routine and discipline that create a time and space that I now crave to quiet myself in the peace of His presence.
When Jesus visited Mary and Martha and Martha was busy rushing about, trying to take care of things to be certain that all of the preparations had been made for their guests, Mary simply sat at the Lord's feet to listen and be in His presence. Martha was frustrated with her sister for not helping, as she was so busy moving, that she did not pause to recognize the remarkable that was right in front of her. Jesus, in His kind and gentle way, reminded her of what really mattered. "Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her." – (Luke 10:41-42)
The chores, the busywork, the going and doing – they will always be there. Our investment in Christ is eternal. What we choose today impacts our eternity. Yes, God is gracious and merciful and He does not keep a checklist of who has a quiet time and who does not, but He longs for our hearts and our time. Jesus wants to spend time with us and to speak to us. Why wouldn't we choose to make the Creator of all the priority in each day?
quiet in His peace;
faithful investment,
our burdens released.
All that need be done,
will always remain;
we must take the time,
to give Him our shame.
A space to listen,
to hear God's own heart;
promises spoken,
and wisdom imparts.
Let our hearts give praise,
to Glory Divine;
for He is so good,
our Hope for all time.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that though You love a heart that seeks to serve You, You more than anything, want our hearts. Thank You that You desire to spend time with us, to speak with us and commune with us. Thank You that You call us Your children. Forgive us for our distractions that keep us so focused on doing, that we neglect the why we do what we do. Help us to slow down and fix our eyes and all of our attention on You, so that we might clearly hear all that You have for us. Teach us to trust You more. Lead us to love others, just as You so willingly and patiently love each of us. May many come into a saving relationship with You. Be exalted O God, as we slow down and seek You in the sweet silence of a time set aside just for You. Amen.
© Shannon Elizabeth Moreno and Revelations in Writing, May 2011 – present.
Show me Your ways, O Lord, teach me Your paths; …my hope is in You all day long. – Psalm 25:4-5
An On Time God
I have been thinking a lot about time lately, about how in many ways time is complex and yet in others, very simple. It passes without any input from us and yet we spend so much of the time we have in trying to control it. Sometimes it seems to fly and at others, to crawl. We have scientists telling us that our very perception of time actually causes it to change. We live in interesting times and sometimes we think that ours is the most important time that there is. As if nothing of importance happened before we came along. As if God Himself has forgotten about us and abandoned us because in our minds things are so very bad that He must not care.
I was reminded of the story of Lazarus this morning. I was listening to music and one of my favorites began playing. It is one that is sometimes sung by my friend and church sister, Keva, who has a beautiful voice. It is about the sorrow of Lazarus' sisters, Mary and Martha, when Jesus didn't arrive while Lazarus was still alive. How sad they must have felt. Perhaps they even felt anger and betrayal, knowing that Jesus could have saved him.
And yet Jesus used this time to teach all the rest of us a story that was so much bigger that the death of a beloved brother and friend. He taught of the resurrection from physical death, but He also taught of the irrelevance of time in His actions. The time in the tomb meant nothing to Lazarus. It meant a great deal and a wonderful lesson to the rest of us.
Whatever we want is limited by our time, but time has no limits on God. And He isn't bound by our rules or desires. We may look at the story of Lazarus and question if Jesus didn't care enough to get there sooner, perhaps some may even question if He was cold in His use of this as a lesson to all of those present, as well as the rest of us who believe in Him. And yet this was perhaps one of His greatest lessons and gifts to the world. With the resurrection of Lazarus He not only gave us a foretelling of His own death and resurrection, He gave us confirmation of the reality of resurrection and the knowledge that we too, could have the opportunity that Lazarus had.
If Jesus had come earlier, while Lazarus was still alive, no one would have had the reassurance that He too would be resurrected. Our time is not God's time! His plan is working along just fine and each of us is playing our part. We make the choices everyday on what to do with our time, perhaps we spend too much time worrying about whether God is listening or whether He even hears us. Whether Jesus is going to hurry and save us from ourselves. Perhaps in this time of celebrating His birth, we should spend our time giving thanks for the sacrifice that He gave. He keeps His promise and Jesus will return at the time that His Father wishes.
John 11
King James Version (KJV)
11 Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.
2 (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)
3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7 Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.
12 Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.
13 Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
14 Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.
15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.
16 Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.
17 Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.
18 Now Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:
19 And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.
20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.
21 Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
22 But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.
23 Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
24 Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:
26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
28 And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calleth for thee.
29 As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.
30 Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.
31 The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goeth unto the grave to weep there.
32 Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
33 When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.
34 And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.
35 Jesus wept.
36 Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!
37 And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?
38 Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.
39 Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.
40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42 And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

However, there was no risk of retinal detachment among people who had taken the antibiotics recently or those who had taken them in the past, the study found.
And while current users of fluoroquinolones had a nearly five times higher risk of retinal detachment, the absolute risk was very small -- only 1 in 2,500, for any use of fluoroquinolones, they noted.
"This magnitude of risk seems small, but given that there are about 40,000,000 prescriptions written for these drugs in the U.S., it translates to around 4,000 new cases per year," Etminan said.
The study does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between antibiotics and retinal detachment, only a weak association.
Commenting on the study, Dr. William Smiddy, a professor of ophthalmology at the University of Miami Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, said, "I don't believe it."
If the risk were real, you would expect to find people who had taken the antibiotics to have had the condition, but the study didn't find that, he said.
"It's not something we can discount, but it's hard to believe," Smiddy added. "It's not something I've even heard described, before this paper."
In addition, Smiddy noted that the study only suggests there may be a connection.
"Even if there is a risk, it's a low risk, so if you need a fluoroquinolone you should be on a fluoroquinolone," Smiddy said. "We don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater."

Bond Street Bounds Back
Buyers have snapped up all but one of the units in a new luxury condo at 41 Bond St. in just a few weeks and the project is even fetching boom-time prices.
Bond Street was briefly the hottest spot for new luxury condos in the city, but its heyday ended shortly after it began. In 2007 and early 2008, units at developer Ian Schrager's 40 Bond sold for $2,500 a square foot on average, according to StreetEasy.com. Along with 40 Mercer, 40 Bond commanded the highest prices in downtown Manhattan at the time, says Sofia Song, StreetEasy vice president of research.
Several subsequent luxury projects were finished on the street just in time for the recession, but sales were more sluggish.
DDG Partners LLC began marketing 41 Bond on June 9, and all of the units except the townhouse are in contract, according to the developer. The penthouse is in contract for a total price, including transfer taxes, of $8.4 million, or more than $3,100 a square foot.
The lower-floor units are in contract for more than $2,500 a foot on average.
"We've sold the majority of units in the building at pricing comparable to 40 Bond in '08," Joe McMillan, chief executive of DDG, said during a tour of the building. "The only thing is that I wish I had more of them."
DDG purchased 41 Bond—then a vacant site—in the depths of the downturn and began designing a boutique building with full-floor and duplex units and top-of-the-line finishes. At the time, it was doubtful whether Bond Street would bounce back to previous highs.
Mr. McMillan laughed when asked whether he contemplated scaling back the project. "A lot of people told us not to do such large units," he said.
From the outside, 41 Bond is the most understated of the recent residential projects, which features local bluestone and leafy irrigated window boxes. In part that's because the developer had to abide by landmark laws when the NoHo Historic District was extended to include part of the block of Bond Street between Lafayette Street and the Bowery in mid-2008.
Inside, the units have marble countertops that extend into the pantries, along with 11-foot sliding-glass panels overlooking quaint townhouses to the south and luxury condos to the north.
Not long ago, Bond Street was a seedy cobblestone strip populated by plumbing supply stores and scrap metal joints.
"Five years ago there used to be rats running around there at night," said Mr. Schrager. Now residents say the rats are much scarcer.
Mr. Schrager, creator of numerous fashionable hotels, originally planned to build a hotel at 40 Bond, but when the market collapsed after Sept. 11, 2001, he switched to a condo.
Pritzker Prize-winning architects Herzog & de Meuron helped create a unique shimmering green facade with metal sculptures resembling graffiti, sparking a flurry of similarly edgy developments. Residents like Ricky Martin and Mr. Schrager himself also helped make the street a magnet for celebrities.
Adam Gordon finished the conversion of the former Bouwerie Lane Theater at the corner of Bowery and Bond to condos in October 2009. Down the street, nine-unit 25 Bond St. was finished in late 2008. The units remain primarily in the hands of the original investing partners, though some are rentals.
Don Capoccia, principal at BFC Partners, started selling units at 48 Bond St. in the fall of 2008. They sold for $1,400 to $1,500 a square foot on average, according to the developer. "I never really look back. Certainly, my buyers are going to continue to do better and better," he said.
Sales have perked up recently. Mr. Capoccia, for example, sold his penthouse at 48 Bond in April of this year for $14.5 million, or $2,500 square foot.
Bond Street experienced a retail boom uninterrupted by the downturn. Restaurants and high-end clothing stores such as Billy Reid and Rogan have filled almost all the empty storefronts.
"A lot of my fashion friends want to get in there and get stores," said Mr. Schrager. But he says it's hard for them to find vacant spaces.
Matt Kliegman, co-owner of the Smile, a laidback restaurant in a 180-year-old building at 26 Bond St., says the street feels more exclusive because the new residential developments don't include retail space. "There are natural barriers to entry," he said.
For a while at least, 41 Bond will likely be the last residential project to debut on this coveted block. A skinny unfinished 48-room hotel facing Great Jones Street with an adjoining site backing onto Bond is up for sale and could stay as a hotel or become a private club or possibly a residential conversion, with proper permits, according to the broker for the properties.
Developers are also eying opportunities on the second of Bond's two blocks, between Lafayette Street and Broadway. "I'd like to see it go a little bit west," said Mr. Schrager.

Ivan Herman of the W3C reports, "The W3C RDF Working Group has published two Last Call Working Drafts: (1) A Last Call Working Draft of RDF 1.1 Concepts and Abstract Syntax. The Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a framework for representing information in the Web. Comments are welcome through 6 September. (2) A Last Call Working Draft of RDF 1.1 Semantics. This document describes a precise semantics for the Resource Description Framework 1.1 and RDF Schema. It defines a number of distinct entailment regimes and corresponding patterns of entailment. It is part of a suite of documents which comprise the full specification of RDF 1.1. Comments are welcome through 6 September."
According to the first working draft, "RDF 1.1 Concepts and Abstract Syntax defines an abstract syntax (a data model) which serves to link all RDF-based languages and specifications. The abstract syntax has two key data structures: RDF graphs are sets of subject-predicate-object triples, where the elements may be IRIs, blank nodes, or datatyped literals. They are used to express descriptions of resources. RDF datasets are used to organize collections of RDF graphs, and comprise a default graph and zero or more named graphs. This document also introduces key concepts and terminology, and discusses datatyping and the handling of fragment identifiers in IRIs within RDF graphs." The "Semantics" working draft states, "This is a revision of the 2004 Semantics specification for RDF [RDF-MT] and supersedes that document. This document was published by the RDF Working Group as a Last Call Working Draft. This document is intended to become a W3CRecommendation. If you wish to make comments regarding this document, please send them to email@example.com."

I have a Ford Fiesta Zetec S (58 reg) and seem to have a problem with the air conditioning in that it only blows cold air when accelerating. If I stop in traffic or at traffic lights it continues to blow air but it's not cold air, it then begins blowing cold again once under acceleration. I've had the problem quite a while but it's become more annoying with the recent hot weather. I had the system re-gassed at the end of last year so don't think it can be due to this.
I've also just put it into a garage but the mechanic seems to think that it's just the way some cars are made, which seems strange and I just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same issue.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Many Thanks

If I could have used no forks that would have been honest. Dough was dry and unworkable. I had to throw it away and make biscuits to take to the function we were attending.flag if inappropriate
Made this over the summer on the Maine coast to go with lobster bisque. Simply amazing. I recommend using a powerful food processor, as that will most effectively break up the rice.flag if inappropriate
This turned out hard, dense, and unedible. I'm not a newbie bread maker and followed the directions exactly. Since the recipe looks so good and there is always a chance I made a mistake, I will give it another try and adjust my rating accordingly.flag if inappropriate
The wild rice intrigued me and made me try this recipe. Easy but takes 24 hour planning. My husband said that it is the best bread that he has ever eaten. Already starting a second batch.flag if inappropriate

Whores for Gloria (1991)
by William Vollmann
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A Vollmann novel that's less than 600 pages? Say it ain't so!
A focused look at the beauty and ugliness of a deluded man looking for a woman he invented. Sad and disgusting and compelling all at once. Don't read while eating.
Recommended for the kind of people who want to know the 'spirituality of whores' to use Vollmann's own phrase, or the kind of people who collect insects.
Jimmy is a Vietnam veteran living month-to-month off his disability check in San Francisco's Tenderloin district (home of Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon) in the late 1980s. Jimmy spends most of his monthly check on Budweiser and prostitutes. But what he wants most from the prostitutes isn't sex, but their memories. Jimmy is constructing, in his mind, a woman named Gloria, and he is building her out of the childhood memories and adult experiences of the streetwalkers whom he pays just to talk to him.
Gloria may have been a childhood sweetheart, she may be an estranged lover, or she may be pure fantasy. Jimmy, at least, has a clear idea of what she must be like, and he is both specific and determined in his quest to find the right memories to complete his vision.
The story of Jimmy and Gloria is just a vehicle, however, for the novel's real purpose which is to serve as a collective portrait of the prostitutes of that particular place and time. In a series of appendices the author provides quotations from the streetwalkers he interviewed, a glossary, a profile of the typical prostitute, and a list of services and typical prices. His portrayal of the profession is sympathetic but unvarnished, and includes, of course, drugs, AIDS, alcoholism, violence, and theft. Vollmann avoids moral judgment of the prostitutes and their clients; his only editorial comment is to remark that most of the ills associated with prostitution derive from its illegality and not from the trade itself.

As you all know, the "lomo" look and cross-processing E6 slide film in C-41 color negative chemistry has grown in popularity. I've been given, and also bought, some expired E6 film, mostly Ektachrome in 35mm and 4x5, and have been struggling to cross-process it. I know my C-41 chemicals (Rollei Digibase) are good, but most of the time all I get is an impenetrable, impossibly dark blue mask through which I can just barely discern an image. It's no good for scanning and I'd wager also no good for optical printing.
Are some films better than others for this treatment? Does the expiration have any bearing on this? Are there any ways to optimize my results, or should I just drop the whole idea entirely?
