Chicago based Saltans Architects_Intl., ltd (SA_I) and Shenzhen based Jaeger and Partner Architects, Ltd. design collaboration was recently selected for the second stage international design competition for the Skolkovo Technopark District D2 Residential Area. Their master plan design envisions the "concept of the city at human scale with a strong relationship with nature". Five distinct Districts comprising this planning strategy are separated and linked by natural landscapes, while each District's master plan is designed specifically for function. More images and architects' description after the break.

Jaeger and Partners Architects' design for the Shenzhen Archive Towers recently received a Design Excellence Award in the AIA Chicago 2011 Design Awards program. This competition scheme was acknowledged in the Unbuilt Design Award category. Shenzhen's Meiling District resides between City Center and new north railway station, forming an urban center with the Archive site at its heart. Creating an authentic urban space, the design unifies four parcels (city blocks) by removing dividing streets. Circulation is re-organized, thereby harnessed, by introducing a perimeter one-way street system. The enlarged spatial boundary establishes an appropriate scale and symbolic relationship with the City Plaza. More images and project description after the break.

Forget about the regular-season struggles or the playoff berth sealed on the final day of the campaign. For Real Salt Lake, the past isn't particularly important as they prepares to face Los Angeles in MLS Cup 2009 on Sunday night in Seattle.
"I have a lot of belief in this team, and (it's) not based on the results or the fact that we were the eighth-placed finisher in league this year," Real Salt Lake head coach Jason Kreis said during a nationwide conference call on Tuesday afternoon. "I have a lot of belief in this team because I know what they are capable of. At the moment, they are playing close to their capabilities and close to their potential. I believe that if they continue to do that this weekend, we've got every shot in the world and I don't care what any record or stat might say."
Kreis' belief in his side fuels RSL's expectations heading into their maiden MLS Cup bow. Few expected RSL to shake off an up-and-down regular season to assemble a four-game winning streak at the most critical juncture of the season and oust Columbus and Chicago on the road to win the Eastern Conference championship.
All of that hard work and momentum presents the Claret-and-Cobalt with a chance to cap off the impressive run with the biggest prize of them all, Kreis said.
"It's an extremely exciting time for Real Salt Lake," Kreis said. "It's a benchmark for the club. We've somewhat turned the club around and we've made ourselves competitive. We're very very proud of all of the work we've put in and all of the work the team has put in. We're excited about our opportunity this weekend and we see it as exactly that: an opportunity."
RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando played a large part in ensuring his side would reach MLS Cup after stopping three Chicago penalty kicks, including two stops on two shots in the sudden-death stage, to send the Claret-and-Cobalt past the Fire after a 0-0 draw through extra time on Saturday night. Rimando said his side has accumulated significant momentum over the past few weeks and should benefit from its recent uptick in form on Sunday night.
"We're very excited to get to Seattle," Rimando said on the conference call. "It's been our goal since the beginning of the season. I think right now the guys are ready. We've got our rhythm going and we're confident, especially after winning in Columbus and Chicago. We're excited to get there and play a good match against the Galaxy."
Kreis said keeping that rhythm will require keeping the pre-match routine as consistent as possible despite the additional trappings of playing in MLS Cup. RSL will descend on the Emerald City on Thursday night and maintain a training schedule that will mirror the approach to its previous two playoff road trips.
"This weekend, we'll do the same thing," Kreis said. "We're going in three days early. Our training times will be staying the same as they were here. We'll be paying attention to the details for sure because I'm a detail-oriented person, sometimes to the chagrin of my players."
Those players, including Rimando, are also looking forward to a packed house at Qwest Field on Sunday night. Rimando said the normally rave green-clad home of Seattle Sounders FC provides a "fantastic atmosphere" for soccer and noted that the bumper crowd will urge the players to greater heights if required.
"I've been in there for the first game against the Sounders," Rimando said. "I also played there when D.C. United played Real Madrid and that place was sold out. I think Sunday is going to be that same way. It's going to be rocking. It makes us play just a little bit better and makes us appreciate the sport here in America."

Someone at Sony Ericsson didn't get the memo: Android 2.2 is the only game in town.
The Boy Genius is hearing that the Sony Xperia will be hitting AT&T's network in the coming weeks. Sony's Experia X10 from a hardware perspective is a very solid Android phone. It is pretty much on par with the best HTC and Motorola offer: 4-inch, 480x854 pixel screen, 1GHz Snapdragon Processor and 8 megapixel camera. It doesn't look bad either (right).
Unconscionably, somehow, some way, Sony is shipping this thing with the outdated Android 1.6 (!!). Welcome to the Dell Streak fan club, Sony. While EVOs and Droids are currently being upgraded from Android 2.1 to Android's 2.2 Froyo OS, Sony is soon to be shipping with 1.6 with a promise to upgrade to 2.1 by the end of they year.
Sony Ericsson states on its blog:
<!-- more -->
Some examples of user benefits that will be included in the UXP upgrade for Xperia™ X10 in Q4 2010 are:
- Upgrade to Android OS version 2.1
- HD video recording as per the same execution as Sony Ericsson Vivaz™
- Wireless home connectivity via DLNA
- Improvements to signature applications Timescape™ and Mediascape to make them even smarter and richer
The upgrade will be made available to consumers through the update service at www.sonyericsson.com
I do appreciate that the timing for the upgrade above might not meet some of your expectations and that you will have further detailed questions. I will take them onboard reading your comments and address questions as soon as it is possible for me to share further details.
I would also like to emphasise that there will be an additional smaller software update, already in the next couple of weeks aiming to enhance the usability and performance of Xperia™ X10. In the next post, I will share more details and precise timings for when this update will be released.
We can also confirm that the Xperia™ X10 mini and Xperia™ X10 mini pro will be upgraded to Android version 2.1, during Q4 2010.
Couple that with AT&T's non-existant Android marketing and I smell a huge flop. Good way to enter into the US Android market.
Update: Sony has an ambiguous press release saying the 2.1 update may be coming in Q3 (still not outstanding):
From Q3 2010 onwards, the Xperia™ X10, X10 mini and X10 mini pro smartphones will be upgraded to run on the Android 2.1 operating system in selected markets.
Thanks Alexander!

i have had five surgeries now as the first 4 were a complete disaster and the last surgeon had to totally reconstruct my nose with cartilage and fascia grafts. my nose is looking pretty good, slight asymmetry is evident however. is having a 6th operation risky in terms of tissue death? my dr implied that this had to be my last operation as i have had too many. i am wondering if tissue death is common?
Are 6 Revision Rhinoplasty Surgeries Too Many?
Doctor Answers 6
Multiple rhinoplasty revisions
The limitations are related to skin quality. Too much scarring and skin that is too thin can be a set up for complications. After 6 revisions there are two things to consider:
1) are my expectations realistic?
2) have I become too invested in this and too wrapped up in repairing what was an unsatisfactory initial result?
Once you start down the road of revisions there is the potential to hyper-focus, causing you to be more critical now than you might have been initially: what you would have been happy with after one surgery is now just a reminder that the first surgery didn't go well.
Before going too far make sure you get a few different opinions.
6 th revision
There is no absolute maximum number of rhinoplasties that you can get as long as the skin is healthy. If you are still unhappy after multiple rhinoplasties you must consider whether your goals are realistic

Revision rhinoplasty and how many are too many?
Most patients have absolutely no idea of how complex and technically difficult a major revision rhinoplasty can be; most surgeons avoid taking on the challenge of trying to fix another surgeon's work because they know that the results they can obtain will be less than perfect in most cases and because the skill set necessary to obtain a good result will be demanding. For a minor revision, which only requires a small correction for a little irregularity here or there, the job is much easier. But from what you describe, you had a major revision that required cartilage and other tissue grafts. Taking tissue from someplace else and putting it into the nose to try to recreate natural anatomy needs the experience and skill of a surgeon who does many revisions. If you have a significant improvement, can you be satisfied with that? Remember that there is no such thing as perfection in nose surgery; we all start out with some asymmetries prior to any surgery and surgeons cannot control the healing process. It's not the number of surgeries that you have had that matters as much as what the current problem is, what has been done before, the condition of your nasal tissue and the skill of the surgeon. I once did the revision surgery on a patient who had 13 prior rhinoplasties done elsewhere and fixed her concerns with a 14th operation.

6 revision Rhinoplasty surgeries is quite a lot
IMHO, 6 Rhinoplasties are a lot. Skin slough from compromised blood supply to the nasal skin is very rare after Rhinoplasty but if it did occur, it would deform the nose. Listen to the last Rhinoplasty surgeon and find some other part of your face and body to make more attractive. Time to leave your nose alone.

Six rhinoplasties
You have had a lot of surgery. Besides the risk of tissue death each time you operate you induce a new round of scar tissue which may alter the result. The chances of "hitting it just right" so the last little asymmetry that bothers you will be gone versus the chance of new problems keep getting worse for you. It's also possible that there are things you aren't noticing but after you have something else adjusted it becomes apparent to you. Ask yourself if your goals are realistic. Are they just about appearance, or did you expect different things to happen in your life as a result of the surgery? Cliche's become that way for a reason and there's an old surgical one that goes "the enemy of good is better".

Too Many Nasal Revisions
Six surgeries is significant and as you continue to push toward perfection the chances of a disastrous complication continue to rise. Even you mentioned a "slight" asymmetry, and this unto itself (if accurate) shouldn't warrant another intervention. Your nose will NEVER be perfect and at some point you have to stop. If you continue to look, someone will operate on you, but make this decision carefully.
Best of luck.

Lebanon's Ministry of Electricity and Water Resources began fixing a water network on Tuesday, the Daily Star reported Wednesday.
The damaged network has been blamed for contaminating water, poisoning 130 local resident in the Qaraoun area.
An official statement from the Lebanese ministry said that "illness caused by the pollution has been decreasing since Saturday. No new cases were reported on Monday and Tuesday."
On Tuesday, the Health Ministry tested 20 water samples from the network and found the water pumped from the main source was pure, the paper reported. But again the pipes through which the water passed were damaged and contaminated the water, it said - Albawaba.com

Natural beauty Nayanatara hailing from Gods own Country, has seen many ups and downs personally and professionally. On personal front she was stung by two love failures while on professional front her career can be seen as post and pre 'Sri Rama Rajyam'. Such was the impact created by Nayanatara as Goddess Seetha in this Bapu directed mythological adventure featuring Balakrishna, even those who opposed her casting at the starting of the film lavished praises on her performance. She duly won the jury awards at all functions. She during that time planned to bid good bye to films but later reconsidered her decision and is now featuring in two more films. Her Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum is ready for release and she is also romancing Nagarjuna in film touted as 'Love Story' under Dasarath direction.
Insiders reveal that Nayan is all set to shed away her 'Seetha' image and as such the stills and teasers of Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum showed her hot stills. Sources say she will be even seen in two piece bikini turning red hot on silverscreen. Nayan gave bikini treat to Kollywood movie lovers in Ajith's superhit 'Billa' and now she is presenting this golden opportunity to tollywood movie lovers.

Is Rhinoplasty for Me?
Hello. All of the issues that you have mentioned can be addressed by an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon to give you a beautiful, elegant nose. It is important that the doctor you choose has experience with rhinoplasty surgeries. Good luck!

A Great Candidate For A Multifaceted Rhinoplasty
Thank you for sharing your photos for your inquiry.
Let me start by mentioning that it is only the patient's decision to go on with a rhinoplasty out of an aesthetic elective and not a need-based perspective.
Therefore, it is imperative that you consult with board certified surgeon of ample experience in the field who will examine you and help you make a well informed decision.
Considering the fact that you are self-aware of your nasal irregularities (well pointed out) shows that you are looking for a permanent solution to fix what you do not like with your nose, hence a rhinoplasty is the way to go.
So, it seems that with a nasal tip de-projection/reduction and a septo-rhinoplasty you could achieve a smaller and a better fit nose that will complement your facial features and bring the best of your facial beauty to a different level.
That being said, please remember that commendable results require an exceptionally skilled surgeon to perform the surgery and settling for anything less than that increases the chances of additional corrective surgeries dramatically.
I hope this helps and please feel free to check the website below.
Thank you for your inquiry.
The best of luck to you.

Excellent assessment of your nose!
You have done a very accurate assessment of your nose. It is indeed crooked, over projected with a hanging columella. You require a septorhinoplasty to correct these deformities.Despite what many people feel about rhinoplasty, the time of recovery does not really correlate with how much 'work" you had done. Generally, even with osteotomies, patients are able to return to work in 7-10 days, however mild swelling may persist for several months afterwards.

Do I Need a Nose Job? How Extensive Would the Corrections Needed Be?
Aesthetically speaking from I can see form the photos, the nasal tip is wide and I suspect over-projected however a side (profile) view is required to make that determination as well as evaluate the existence of a dorsal hump. The presence of either, of these, will require additional techniques be performed during the Rhinoplasty. Removal of a dorsal hump will require breaking the bones.
Rhinoplasty typically takes about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, I do not use any nasal packing after the Rhinoplasty but do apply tape and a wafered plastic cast that is removed at 1 week. The procedure is not painful (I block the entire nose with a long acting local anesthetic) but you will experience a dull ache for a day or so that's well controilled with analgesics.
Learn more: http://www.drfpalmer.com
Your posted photos have bracketing and are shot at angles that do not allow full assessment of your current condition. The degree of asymmetry/crookedness of your nose is difficult to assess. In addition to tip asymmetry the columella appears to hang low but there could be a component of nostril rim retraction. That is best determined in a side view, which is a photo you have not posted. Columella protrusion is usually treated with some combination of trimming the bottom edge of the septum cartilage and removal/set back of the nasal spine. Without better photos or a face to face examination it is impossible to say who extensive or expensive the surgery would be.
You do not need a nose job unless you currently have problems breathing through it. You can change the look of your nose if you wish though by undergoing a rhinoplasty surgery.
My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.
Rhinoplasty in Morristown NJ
I agree that your tip is over projected and a couple of other issues that could be discussed during a consultation. Your would also need a demonstration by computer simulation. The price is dependent on what needs to be done. A complete analysis of your nose is the first step and you might require an open rhinoplasty. Don't make the price be your deciding factor.

Rhinoplasty Surgery
Yes I believe your assessment is partially correct and you would be an excellent candidate for surgery. Without a direct examination it is difficult to determine whether your septum is deviated. With that said you do have asymmetry in your tip that needs correction and all of these issues would be discussed in length in a consultation appointment. I do use a digital imaging computer during my consultations which allows me to show the patient their proposed surgical result and discuss the procedures that would need to be done to attain this result. I hope this is helpful and thank you for your inquiry. Best regards! Michael V. Elam, M.D.

Need for a Nose Job
I don't know if you "need" a nose job but you certainly can improve the appearance of your nose with a rhinoplasty. I basically agree with your concerns but I also feel you have an asymmetrical tip and base of your nose. Better pictures would be very helpful; go to my website for directions on the nasal views necessary for nasal evaluation and then submit them to us.

Bulimia in college?
I'm not in college, But I do purge at school, and in public areas often. I wont give you tips, but I always carry a small backpack with Body spray a toothbrush make-up etc. (I was never one for the big purses lol) I always go to the furthest, less used bathroom, Or a bathroom where I know I wont know anyone in. (If you can even use other washrooms in college?) That way if someone happens to walk in and sees you vomiting they will most likely just assume you're not feeling well. Anyway Just sayin' Thats what I do.. ~ jex
Fighting for the smallest goal: to get a little self-control.
I know how hard you try, I see it in your eyes.

do you have the bathrooms where like all the girls in the hall share, or more like me.. I share a room with 3 other girls and we have 2 bathrooms in our pod5'8" / 19 / F
I'm in college too and it's really hard battling bulimia with trying to hide it, focus on school, and all the other nasty things that come with it. I'm trying VERY hard this semester to stop b/ping and to really focus on school and having a good time. However last semester and if I slip up I usually find a bathroom on campus that's very isolated that no one goes to.
Good luck and be safe

I'm in the same boat as Shae, trying to get off the cycle (though we all know its near impossible) but yeah when I binge at school, though I'm usually home when I binge, there's usually a few buildings that will have those 'unisex' washrooms that are just one toilet in a room. That's the best place to purge without ppl noticing

I know this is going to sound gross, but it's how I've managed to keep my bulimia secret throughout the last three years of college and life with shared bathrooms. I keep a big box of gallon-sized ziplock bags in my room and vomit in those. I turn the TV up loud so my neighbors don't hear, and then get rid of the bag in the trash-chute room later at night or early in the morning. I know it's gross. I've had my RA walk in on me vomiting in the bathroom, probably thinking I was sick or hungover or something, and while I managed to get away with saying I had stomach flu that time, I don't think I could have used that excuse everyday.
Other than that, I guess just what everyone else suggested -- find isolated bathrooms around campus.

My bulimia started in college. Even in communal bathrooms, it wasn't too difficult. What was difficult was focusing on school with my constant headaches and dizziness. My advise is to take the summer to slow down your b/p cycle as much as you can. Bulimia makes that first year even more stressful then it already is, and trust me, it can be really rough. Plus, the stress from school makes bulimia worse, which makes for a lovely, vicious cycle. I hate sound preachy, but I am so cautious because bulimia nearly cost me my GPA, scholarships, and freshman year. Getting caught saved all of that, and my life. Obviously, I'm not recovered or anything, but I'm better than I was.
I know this isn't the "tips" you're looking for, but it's all I've got. I say this because I care about you having a good time in school. PLEASE don't think I'm being condescending, I'm the first to admit I did not, and still sometimes do not, take my own advise. I wish you good luck with it all. College is awesome, especially that first year, don't miss out like I did cause you can't pull your head out of the porcelain.lostinato.tumblr

ugh I was in the same predicament... really all you can do is just NEVER ever become careless... and clean up thoroughly after yourself.
It's horrible... please try to stop. do your very best.
At the same time though for me it was an invaluable coping mechanism- super unhealthy but I didn't really have anything else.
one thing that helps is keeping yourself really busy with clubs, activities, events and school. Also studying in an area that's food free (so you're not tempted in the first place) and planning out meals for yourself at regular intervals.
It takes practise, I won't lie.

*adding to earlier post / seconding what others have said*
The best "tip" I can offer is to STOP bulimia before you get to college. It only gets worse -- seriously. I was moderately bulimic in high school, alternating back and forth between bulimia and anorexia. When I got go college, my ED was the only coping mechanism I had, aside from some SI, and it took over my life. It is SO hard to keep up with classes and maintain a decent GPA (I'm currently at a 3.8, but that still amazes me sometimes) when you can think of nothing other than food, are constantly planning your next b/p, and feel like absolute shit all the time (kind of like being perpetually "hungover" in class). It sucks. I went from b/p a couple of times a week in high school to a couple of times a day in college. I have debated going IP because it has become so unbearably hard to manage it all, and I know it will only get worse once I get to grad school. Bulimia will take over your life -- it will be the only "extracurricular" activity you will have, your "major," and your "social life."
Maybe you will be able to manage it better than I have. This is just my own personal experience and words of warning.
I have to second what others have said -- hiding it is not as big a deal as managing school and bulimia at the same time.

Me_and_Mia: that's nearly exactly what I went through- my ED spiraled out of control compared to high school it was a miracle I managed to keep my grades up, and I had no social life.
I'm hoping next year will be better...
It's nice to know there are many others in the same predicament.

So I have a problem. This is my new HD:
My first drive would disappear from the computer after coming back from Sleep. The computer if let sleep for longer than 20 minutes or so, would simply not appear in My Computer or Device Manager once resuming from Sleep.
I just got the second drive, from RMAing. Same problem.
Is there any other owners of this HD here? If so, does your drive have the same problem? I've tried different SATA ports, 3.0 and 6.0. Haven't tried changing cables yet, that is next. I don't want to keep RMAing if this recurring problem with the drive.

Bodega Sundays: No Wack DJs Allowed
Bodega residents Cee Brown, Melaaza, Panamami, and special guest Tony Touch
Cee Brown
At Bodega Sundays, held at Senor Fish in Little Tokyo the first and third Sundays of the month, music is the experiment, the mainstream meets the underground, and getting cultured is sexy. The crowds there are surprisingly open-minded, and even top DJs' party-rocking skills are put to the test. Modern funk impresario Dam-Funk played there recently as a surprise guest; big names like he are known to drop by to test out new music.
Los Angeles DJs Cee Brown, Melaaza, and Panamami started the party in 2009; the three of them had their own parties going on and played various clubs around town, and there was one thing they all hated -- waiting in line for a Hollywood party.
Bodega -- which means small grocery store in Spanish -- gets its name from its wide selection of music. The beats will jump from Afrobeat to hip hop, cumbia to EDM, and everything else you want to dance to.
"We didn't want to be held hostage by one style. Whatever you want, you can grab it," says Panamami.

The free admission party quickly outgrew its original digs at Far Bar, and guest DJ's have included names like Nu-Mark, Garth Trinidad, Rich Medina, and Peanut Butter Wolf. It's also a place where up-and-coming DJs can make a name for themselves.
"There's no courtesy dancing," explains Melaaza. "If you're having a wack night, the DJ needs to figure out what the people want. Some of the best don't know what to do."
When the legendary Nuyorican hip hop DJ Tony Touch made his appearance last month, he was only scheduled to spin for an hour and a half. He caught a vibe and ended up rocking the party for three hours.
"The dopest DJs don't want to get off the decks, because the feeling is so special," says Panamami. "We want them to remember why they fell in love with DJing."
Tony Touch is coming back to L.A. and having the Bodega crew host his album release party for The Piece Maker 3: Return of the 50 MC's. Guest appearances are expected throughout the night.
The party's also a hot place to meet people. It's an attractive crowd filled with eclectic music lovers and cultural enthusiasts.
"Come to Bodega and catch a husband," suggests Panamami.
The Tony Touch album release party is at 8PM on Saturday at a special location at 1936 E. 7th St. in Downtown.
The next regularly scheduled Bodega is Sunday at 8PM at Senor Fish, 422 E. 1st St. in Little Tokyo.

A Pairing-free Identity-based Authenticated Key Agreement Protocol for Wireless and Mobile Networks
Providing a suitable authenticated key establishment protocol in wireless and mobile networks is challenging due to all the characteristics of these networks, such as communication capability, computation capability and storage resources. This paper presents an efficient and flexible authenticated key agreement protocol without bilinear pairings for wireless and mobile networks. The authors proposed protocol not only provides mutual authentication between users and servers but also supports session key agreement. In addition, in their protocol the user does not need to perform the expansive bilinear operations, so it reduces the computation loads. Compared with the related works, the proposed scheme is more efficient and practical.

Starring: Ayelet Zurer, Ewan McGregor, Stellan Skarsgard, Tom Hanks
Genres: Crime, Drama, Mystery, Thriller
Plot hole: Towards the end, Patrick takes the 5kt bomb into a helicopter and climbs it away to safety. The problem with that is that the helicopters have a rather low rate of climb - ~10 m/s for military helicopters, less than that for civilian ones. This is the rate of climb at low altitudes, and it is with altitude. He had less than 5 minutes to climb, which would put the bomb at most 3000 meters above the city, and more realistically, one tenth that - just about the optimum height for the bomb to inflict major damage on the Vatican city and the center of Rome.
Continuity mistake: When the antimatter explodes in the helicopter, the the shock-wave blasts off part of the roof inside St. Peter's Basilica, above the alter, obliterating everything below. However, in the scene where the Camerlengo self immolates himself at the altar close to the end of the movie, there is no evidence of the shock wave earlier, the candles are burning, oil lamps are lit and alter is intact.
Other mistake: After Langdon saves the last of the Preferati by diving into the fountain, he heads off to St. Angelo with dry clothes. Since it is only ten or fifteen minutes later, his clothes should be soaked.
Factual error: Contrary to what the movie states, priests can be elected Pope - they are simply elevated to the rank of Bishop before taking the office.
Factual error: In the scene where Vetra is taken to examine the body of the deceased pope, the corpse is exposed after the marble slab and the lid of the casket is removed. In reality, papal funerary protocol requires the body to be triple-sealed. It is first placed in a coffin of cypress wood (to symbolise humility), and is then hermetically sealed in a zinc coffin to slow down decomposition. Finally, the zinc coffin is then placed inside of an oak coffin before being interred beneath the marble slab.
Factual error: The Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi, where the fourth cardinal is taken to be executed, is nowhere near as deep as it's depicted in the film. In reality it's only little more than a foot deep.
Revealing mistake: When Langdon and Victoria walk towards the Pantheon, the first two angles show them walking alone with some stunt-women behind. But in the third angle, a couple of seconds later, a huge line of people appears, lining perfectly in the back, watching the camera. Obviously a group of real tourists standing behind a security line watching the shooting.
Audio problem: When Langdon is in the Vatican archives for the second time and they are running out of oxygen, He uses the Swiss Guard's gun to shoot the glass. The problem being it takes roughly 0.8 seconds from the time the sound of the gun goes off to have any impact on the glass. He is no further than 5 metres from the glass, but still, this should be instantaneous.
Factual error: In the scenes in Piazza Navona where the fourth Bishop is nearly drowned in the Fountain of the Four Rivers, the fountain is easily approached by car and on foot without any barriers. The real fountain has a railing around it of stone posts connected by long, oval-shaped iron rings and bars.
Factual error: The College of Cardinals debate whether or not to allow Father McKenna into the papal election as a candidate via election by acclamation. That process of election was abolished by Pope John Paul II in 1996; the secret ballot method is the only legal means of electing a Pope.
Factual error: When Langdon arrives at piazza del Popolo and drives over the square, the church (Santa Maria del Popolo) is at his left side. But in real Rome, the church is at the right side.
Character mistake: When discussing the new Pope's name (Luke) at the end of the film, Langdon says: "There have been many Marks and Johns, but never a Luke." In fact, though there have been 23 Pope Johns, there has only been one Pope Mark - reigning for 9 months in 336.
Audio problem: When Langdon and the Swiss guard are in the file room out of oxygen, the guard presses the oxygen control screen nervously, and a "clac" sound is heard. The shot changes and he stops pressing the button, yet the previous clac-clac-clac is heard for a couple seconds.
Continuity mistake: When the new threat is shown to Professor Langdon, the first time he asked it to be stopped, the threat says "We will brand your preferiti and sacrifi-" it end there. But when it was played again two minutes later, it repeated to "and sacrifice them to the altars of Science."
Visible crew/equipment: In St. Peters Square at 8:58pm the head of the Saints statue looks like Director Ron Howard.
Continuity mistake: When Landon and the Vatican Police arrive at the Piazza del Popolo at 7:59pm when looking for the first victim, the overhead shot shows shadows cast by their car and tourists in the area are at a very shallow angle (shadows 3 - 4 times the length of the height of objects casting them), indicating that it's late in the day. However, the shots from ground level show shadows cast at much steeper angles (only about 1/2 - 3/4 of the length of the object height), indicating that it's much closer to noon.
Continuity mistake: When they are held up by tourists, while trying to get to the second church, there is a bus just behind them. Once the tourists move, the bus has gone.
Continuity mistake: When Langdon and the Swiss guard are out of oxygen and the guard slams a trolley against the glass, the amount of paper on the floor around it keeps changing between shots.
Continuity mistake: When Ewan McGregor runs out to the helicopter with the antimatter, you can't see the landing gear even when there is a flash of light from someone's camera in the crowd. In the next shot you can see the landing gear is down.
Continuity mistake: When the camera focuses on the French reporter standing on top of the van, he has his arm up, but in the next close-up it's down and resting by his lap.

While pain control is often a common problem for end-of-life patients in nursing homes, there are other nonpain symptoms that pose similar challenges. These include constipation from the use of narcotics, cough, nausea/vomiting, and fever. A new study recently evaluated if these nonpain symptoms are being treated properly and if not, the reasons for undertreatment. It found that while the prevalence of these symptoms was low, more than half of patients with nonpain symptoms were not being treated adequately with medication. Data for the study were obtained from the 2004 National Nursing Home Survey. The group of 303 older nursing home hospice patients were 65 years or age or older. Information from the survey included detailed staff questions on patient medications and the presence or absence of nonpain symptoms.
Most patients were white (91.4 percent) and female (71.9 percent). Nearly half (47.9 percent) were aged 85 or older. Less than a quarter (22 percent) of the 303 patients experienced one or more nonpain symptoms. The three most common of these were constipation, cough, and nausea/vomiting. When the researchers looked at the rates of medication treatment, more than half (60 percent) of the 82 patients with nonpain symptoms were being undertreated. The highest rate of undertreatment (88 percent) was for nausea/vomiting. Compared with treated patients, those undertreated tended to have significantly more problems with mobility, mood, pressure ulcers, and more secondary diagnoses. Undertreated patients also had shorter length of stays compared with their treated peers.
According to the researchers, more quality improvement initiatives are needed that move beyond just the management of pain to helping patients with these important nonpain symptoms. The study was supported in part by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS17695).
See "A cross-sectional analysis of the prevalence of undertreatment of nonpain symptoms and factors associated with undertreatment in older nursing home hospice/palliative care patients," by Keri L. Rodriguez, Ph.D., Joseph T. Hanlon, Pharm.D., M.S., Subashan Perera, Ph.D., and others in the June 2010 American Journal of Geriatric Pharmacotherapy 8(3), pp. 225-232.

"I'm at a crossroads between fighting another fight or retirement. I'm 38, and I keep getting older and the fighters keep staying the same age. I wanted the Fall and Spring off, and now it's time to talk with DW [Dana White]. I don't get to decide my own fights. Dana White and the UFC does. I don't know who it would be. I'd love to fight someone who already beat me. Thiago (Alves), it happened, I took that fight on short notice. He did too, so maybe that would be a fight I look for. (Dan Hardy) has a fight coming up and he's worried about me? He hasn't looked that good in his last few fights. He should worry about that."

Western Aircraft of Boise, Idaho, has done "exceedingly well" despite the poor economy, Al Hoyt, president and COO of the company, told AIN. "During the past couple of years we've not had to lay off anyone and we've been increasing our market share on Falcons, Pilatus and Hawkers. Our avionics shop has also grown and strengthened. Five years ago we principally upgraded avionics systems in PC-12s. Now we're doing major Part 25 installations. We just did a $1.2 million installation on a Falcon 50."
Greenwich AeroGroup acquired the company in July 2007, and the combination has proved a good move for both parties. From the purchaser's perspective the acquisition broadened its horizons. Jim Ziegler, Greenwich AeroGroup president and CEO, said the company is moving decisively toward the goal of being a major international force in the MRO and refurbishment industry. In addition to Western Aircraft the company had also acquired Banner Aerospace, Atlantic Aero and Summit Aviation.
"We've laid out a three-year strategy to expand the business both by acquisition and by adding capability at existing units. When the MRO and refurb market recovers we'll be in position to take advantage of it," Ziegler said.
For Western Aircraft the Greenwich AeroGroup added significant capital, personnel and equipment resources.
"Our sister company Banner Aerospace is a good example of how the relationship benefits us," said Hoyt. "One of Banner's companies is Professional Aircraft Accessories. We've been working on Hawkers for years and they are a reliable source for landing-gear overhaul and exchange. We also do a lot of work with Atlantic Aero in Greensboro; they have a DAS and we don't. Recently we were overbooked and Atlantic Aero sent five technicians to help us out. We're all linked together; we know what each of us has in terms of parts, rotables and so on. We shift assets as necessary."
In 1996 Western had nine maintenance techs; that number had increased to 110 technicians and support personnel in the aircraft services departments before the acquisition. Business grew steadily, and in 2006 the company built a new terminal building. Today the company has 185 employees and added a 21,000-sq-ft storage hangar. Last year the company spent $1 million to expand into the interior refurbishment business and added Mike Slattery and Devin Frizzell to the payroll. The two had previously worked for Savannah Air Center's refurb business. Western Aircraft has six major hangars and office space totaling more than 120,000 sq ft, including a 25,000-sq-ft hangar that can accommodate aircraft as large as a Boeing 727.
Greenwich AeroGroup was clearly happy with how Western Aircraft was conducting business and retained the company's leadership. Hoyt had owned and operated the company since 1995, when he bought it from Morrison Knudsen with partners Al Hilde–owner of Satellite Aero, an FBO in Jackson Hole, Wyo.–and Hilde's son. In 2004 Hoyt became president of the company, a position he held until Greenwich AeroGroup bought the company.
Western Aircraft is an FAA-authorized Class 4 repair station with heavy maintenance, avionics and interior capability. The parts department sells more than 200,000 line items for Falcon, Hawker Beechcraft, Pilatus and Cessna. It has five full-time sales associates who handle from 100 to 300 parts inquiries a day from all over the world.
The company holds factory authorizations for Falcon, Hawker, King Air and Pilatus. Engine authorizations include Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D, PT6, PW305; Honeywell TPE331, TFE731 and ATF-3; and CFE738. Western Aircraft also has limited rated non-destructive inspection capability, including penetrant testing, eddy current testing, ultrasonic and radiographic.
According to Hoyt, the company has been a Falcon factory-authorized service center since 2001 and has more than 160 cumulative years of experience with Falcon maintenance and avionics. "We have completed more than 25 C checks in the last few years, including 12 in 2008. We maintain more than 80 percent of the Falcon 900s and 2000s in the Western U.S.," he said.
Hoyt said Western–a Pilatus-authorized service center–has worked on more PC-12s "than any other facility in the world" and has been recognized as service center of the year by Pilatus Business Aircraft. "In 2008 alone we worked on more than 105 PC-12s," he said.
The company is also a factory-authorized King Air service center and does routine and major maintenance and avionics installations on all the King
Air models

- Net sales increased 23.3% in the second quarter as compared to the prior year second quarter. Sales from acquisitions amounted to $38.8 million or 18.4% during the quarter. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, sales increased 4.9% during the second quarter.
- Net sales at the company's Commercial Foodservice Equipment Group increased 10.2% in the second quarter as compared to the prior year second quarter. Excluding the impact of the acquisitions completed in the second quarter of 2011, net sales of Commercial Foodservice Equipment increased by 5.4%.
- Net sales at the company's Food Processing Equipment Group increased 94.8% in the second quarter as compared to the prior year second quarter. During fiscal 2011, the company completed the acquisitions of Auto-Bake, Maurer-Atmos, Danfotech, Drake and Armor Inox. During fiscal 2012, the company completed the acquisition of Baker Thermal Solutions (formerly Turkington). Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, sales increased by 2.1% in the second quarter.
- Gross profit in the second quarter increased to $101.8 million from $85.3 million and the gross margin rate decreased from 40.5% to 39.2%. The decline in the gross margin rate reflects a higher mix of sales from the Food Processing Equipment Group with lower gross margins, due in part to recent acquisitions.
- Operating income increased 28.7% in the second quarter to $45.3 million from $35.2 million in the prior year quarter.
- Non-cash expenses during the second quarter of 2012 amounted to $9.5 million, including $2.2 million of depreciation, $4.1 million of intangible amortization and $3.2 million of non-cash share based compensation.
- Provisions for income taxes increased to $12.7 million at a 29.0% effective rate in comparison to $11.9 million at a 37.8% effective rate in the prior year quarter. The second quarter tax provision reflects the favorable impact of increased foreign earnings at lower tax rates and a non-recurring benefit from reduced state tax exposures.
- Total debt at the end of the 2012 second quarter amounted to $274.2 million as compared to $317.3 million at the end of 2011. The reduction in debt is net of the funding for acquisition activities of $10.6 million during the first six months of 2012.
- On August 7, 2012, subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the company entered into a new five-year $1.0 billion multi-currency senior revolving credit agreement, with the potential under certain circumstances to increase to $1.350 billion. This facility replaces the company's pre-existing $600 million senior revolving credit facility, which had an original maturity of December 2012. The new facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5%, which is adjusted quarterly based upon the company's leverage ratio. The new facility provides for availability to fund acquisitions and share repurchases so long as the company maintains certain financial ratios.
The Middleby Corporation (NASDAQ: MIDD), a leading worldwide manufacturer of equipment for the commercial foodservice and food processing industries, today reported net sales and earnings for the second quarter ended June 30, 2012. Net earnings for the second quarter were $31,045,000 or $1.67 per share on net sales of $260,040,000 as compared to the prior year second quarter net earnings of $19,628,000 or $1.06 per share on net sales of $210,855,000. 2012 Second Quarter Financial Highlights

Leave it to "The Amazing Race" to turn something as simple and relaxing as a tea tasting event into a game-changing challenge that left one player curled up on the floor in tears.
Yes, the task of sipping and sniffing one's way to a familiar cup of papaya-mango tea in India was made maddening thanks the fact that the all-important flavor was hidden among what appeared to be thousands of cups of tea.
While most contestants made it through the Detour without completely collapsing, Luke wasn't so lucky and broke down, crying, "It's too hard!" Mom Margie talked him back into the game, and a group of exceptionally supportive tearoom assistants clapped as he tried again.
Somehow Luke eventually picked out the right cup (or the tea judge took pity on him) and the cheering group picked Luke up to celebrate.
It was a short celebration as Luke and Margie were last to arrive at the pit stop and soon were out of the "Race."

Autumn trademarks in San Diego — dense fog and Chinese flame trees
November is our real fall
8:30 a.m., Sept. 24
(Page 2 of 2)
After Tony, pizza boxes were the bête noir of my managerial experience. In the back of the building, a round metal trash chute emptied into a dumpster on wheels. When the dumpster filled up, I switched it out with an empty one. As long as the chute wasn't clogged, I didn't have to become closely acquainted with my neighbors' garbage. But every weekend at least one moron would jam a big square pizza box into the small round chute. Soggy, stinky sacks of trash piled up, three stories high behind the pizza box. When this happened, I was forced to snake and beat fermenting garbage into the dumpsters.
I became obsessed with rooting out the offending containers before they were saturated with grease of chicken and unidentified fluids. My apartment had windows facing the landing, so any real or imagined sound of folding cardboard would taunt me. I woke up in the middle of the night, sure I'd catch the imbecile committing crimes against my free time. How could anyone be that stupid? Big box, little hole. Was someone trying to piss me off? Did Rasputin eat pizza?
Sometimes the owner of the apartments sent me to a building he owned on Bush Street to pick up rent checks and water the manager's houseplants when she went on vacation. The Bush Street building was unimpressive on the outside, but the manager's apartment was a beautiful two bedroom with bay windows facing the east, gleaming hardwood floors, built-in bookcases, and sliding pocket doors between the rooms. My studio faced the dumpsters and boasted a lumpy, stained Murphy bed, cockroaches, and a dingy maroon carpet that curled at the corners.
Every month I deposited money into my checking account. When Tony or Rasputin got on my nerves, I got out my bankbook and comforted myself with the growing balance.
Although Tony and I no longer shared a ceiling, his bathroom and my bathroom shared a light well. Early one morning, his angry voice echoed up the shaft. "There's no *&% hot water. There are children in this building! %$# children need hot water!" His screaming was accompanied by the sound of water splashing in his claw-foot tub. Tony's concern for the three children in the building was admirable, but as his rage grew in volume and intensity I'm sure he woke them and everyone else in the building. He blasted up the stairs and alternated between screaming and battering my door with his cowboy boots. By now his diatribe had become an explosive nonsensical loop about children, the legal system, and hot water. He left after I threatened to call the police, but curses randomly erupted from his unit for the rest of the day. The repairman arrived before noon, and Tony and the three children had hot water. The door to my unit was marred by cowboy-boot prints.
Later, at work, I told the other cooks about having to wake up to a raving lunatic. One of the waiters interrupted. "Did you say this guy's name is Tony? Does he always wear a leather bomber jacket and cowboy boots?" I told him Tony's last name. The waiter said, "Wow. I can't believe that guy is still alive. He was the drug dealer for my college buddies and me. He used to hang around with us at our parties like he was one of our friends, but we couldn't stand him. He took so many drugs. He told me he took PCP when he was at home. That guy is a freak."
PCP? An animal tranquilizer was his drug of choice? That explained his bizarre behavior. That would also explain why the police had been snooping around the building and asking questions about Tony.
After two years, I was earning more money as a cook than I had when I'd first moved to San Francisco. I began to reevaluate whether the grief of managing the building was worth the $350 deducted from my rent. On an errand to pick up checks at the owner's Bush Street apartment, I asked the manager how much she paid for her apartment. She looked at me like I was an idiot. "Nothing. I get free rent and $500 a month." Wait. She lived in a beautiful two bedroom, and I lived in a studio that faced the dumpsters. Maybe she had more duties than I did. Nope. She didn't touch the dumpsters or clean. She collected the rent checks and showed apartments. That was it. And I watered her plants when she went on vacation.
I gave my 30-day notice for the job and the apartment. The next time the police came asking questions about Tony's activities, I spilled my guts.

text: Hi folks Am new to the world of cycling. So new...that I've not yet bought a bike but am looking to buy one really soon. Have quickly learnt that they're not cheap and somewhat akward to mount. Will have lots of of annoying amateur questions. You've been warned! The plan is to buy a bike (decent road bike), learn and get used to riding a proper road bike (as opposed to a mamachari) and then enter in some triathlons I've got in mind for the year. I've got the swims and run legs ok, but am not much of a cyclist. My real love lies in open water swimming. Have done a couple of aquathlons, but now want to master the bike. Have been in Japan a while (7-8 years so far). Lived in Sapporo, Fukushima, Niseko and Tokyo and have enjoyed eating my way through the country thus far. Hopefully you can steer me in the right direction for all the questions I have coming. Thanks in advance. Alei

Just over 50 years since Dassault Aviation's first Falcon jet flew in May 1963, the business jet family has never been more crucial to the long-term business of the French manufacturer. Financial results covering the first half of 2013 showed group revenues and profits somewhat dented by factors including a smaller number of Falcon deliveries compared with the first six months of last year (29 aircraft versus 34). However, the company said it still projects a total of 70 Falcon deliveries for the whole of 2013, which would be four more than were delivered in 2012. Overall, the Falcon jets still account for almost three quarters of all sales at Dassault, with the rest comprised of its military activities.
In a July 25 press conference in Paris, Dassault Aviation chairman and chief executive Eric Trappier said the business aviation market still faces an "uncertain recovery" in an uncertain world economic situation. "Thus we must keep fighting on three fields"–sales, support and innovation," he said. "By innovation we mean [cabin interior] completion as well as ongoing modification of our existing fleet and, of course, the SMS."
Trappier was referring to Dassault's long-awaited super-midsized jet, but LABACE show visitors are not expected to learn anything more about it this week. That will have to wait until the NBAA show in Las Vegas this October, when the company is expected to formally launch the new program.
One point about the SMS that Dassault (Stand 5102) has been keen to stress is that it should not be viewed as a replacement for the existing Falcon 900. The company's attitude is that it leaves it to the market to decide when an aircraft has outlived its position in the current production line.
Certified in 2010, the 900LX's winglets reduce fuel burn to allow for a 5- to 7-percent increase in range. The trijet has the same cabin volume as the latest Falcon 2000S. According to Dassault sales engineering manager Frédéric Recher, the 900LX is the "king of airfield performance" and is well suited to operating from key restricted airports like Cannes in the south of France.
"Its maximum takeoff weight is 70 percent higher [than competing aircraft] but the fuel burn of competitors is 50 percent more for the same performance and range," Recher explained. He said this is particularly significant in situations where a mission involves making a short hop to collect passengers for a longer onward flight.
Future Technology
Despite the major engineering effort it is now embarking on to bring the SMS to market, Dassault also has set itself challenging long-term technology goals. Three key elements of this, explained the manufacturer's vice president for research and technology Bruno Stoufflet, are making the Falcon family greener, more electric and more digital. The group's engineers also have a strong focus on improving safety, making cabins more comfortable, improving the competitiveness of its products, reducing program risks, allowing its jets to operate from more airports and improving the availability of aircraft through more effective maintenance.
The main focus of the Greener Falcon project is noise reduction. Dassault has the ambitious objective that by 2025 its aircraft will be 20 dB quieter than they were in 2000. Stoufflet said the company is taking advantage of new aero-acoustic computation techniques that were not available a decade ago.
Further reducing fuel burn and carbon dioxide emissions are other important objectives. Here Dassault's focus is on promising technologies such as more aerodynamically efficient laminar extended wings. "The challenge is to enlarge the laminar portion of the wing as much as possible to reduce drag," said Stoufflet. "We've done flights with the 7X to measure where the [aerodynamic] transition occurs between laminar and non-laminar flow. We also need to master the manufacturing tolerances involved, but we think we can achieve a seven to nine percent saving [in fuel burn and emissions]."
Dassault's efforts to reduce the environmental impact of its products extend to the design and manufacturing processes. It is also assessing how the Falcons could be made greener throughout their lifecycle.
The More Electric Falcon project is seeking to achieve a more efficient ratio between an aircraft's installed power supply and its average use. With a typical power supply architecture today, average power use is seven times less than the total power supply capacity. By contrast, explained Stoufflet, in an all-electric aircraft the ratio drops to 2:1. This saves on power consumption and weight, as well as improving aircraft dispatch reliability. Dassault plans to start introducing more electric technologies on a step-by-step basis with most of the achievable improvements being in service by 2025.
Dassault's Digital Falcon concept focuses on cockpit innovation driven by the need to capitalize on the operational flexibility available through the Sesar and NextGen air traffic management modernization programs. Stoufflet added that cockpit advances would also reduce pilot workload and potentially reduce operating costs.
Dassault engineers also are looking at how they can adapt the flush multifunction antenna developed for its Neuron UAV for use on the Falcon. This could improve connectivity while also reducing drag.
Engineers are also working on further weight reductions to Falcon airframes. One technique being explored is to make better use of automatic flight controls to control load and vibration in the aircraft. Stoufflet said this could result in a 2- to 4-percent fuel burn reduction by reducing the structural mass of the Falcons. Dassault also is investing in plans for a new composite wingbox, and a demonstrator has now been produced.
