13 How do you determine if a molecule is linear or nonlinear?
14 How do you tell if a molecule is trigonal planar or pyramidal?
15 What molecules have linear geometry?
What are the 2 factors that determine molecular geometry?
geometry mainly depends on:
The number of bonding electron pairs (i.e. valence electrons of each atom that are involved in chemical bonding).
The number of unshared electron pairs (i.e. lone pairs) around the central atom.
What determines the electron geometry?
The repulsive forces between bonding and non-bonding electrons determine the three-dimensional geometry of the "groups" of electrons around a central atom. Because the negative charges repel one another, the electron groups arrange themselves so they are as far apart as possible.

What are the 5 basic molecular geometries?
Molecular Geometries. The VSEPR theory describes five main shapes of simple molecules: linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, and octahedral.
How do you know if a molecule is linear geometry?
1st remember the names: The names can be determined by the shape and angle of the molecule. Linear = is just a line of atoms with a 180° angle. Notice that it's 2 or 3 atoms total. Bent = Linear but bent due to the Lone Pairs that it contains, the more Lone Pairs the greater the bent and the smaller the degree.
Why do we have to determine the molecular geometry of molecules?
It is important to be able to predict and understand the molecular structure of a molecule because many of the properties of a substance are determined by its geometry. Molecular geometry may also be used to predict biological activity, to design drugs or decipher the function of a molecule.
What does molecular geometry depend on?
The geometry of molecules depends on the number of atoms present in the molecule and the angles between bonds in the molecule. For example, molecules CO2 and H2O both have three atoms.
Is molecular geometry the same as molecular shape?
The key difference between shape and geometry of a molecule is that shape of a molecule is the structure of the molecule excluding the lone pair on the central atom whereas the geometry of a molecule describes the arrangement of lone pair and bond pair electrons around the central atom of the molecule.
Is molecular geometry the same as electron geometry?
The molecular geometry definition in chemistry is the arrangement of atoms in relation to a central atom in three-dimensional space. Electron geometry is the arrangement of electron groups. If all the electron groups are bonded, with no lone pairs, then the electron geometry and molecular geometry are the same.
You might be interested: Examples Where Geometry Is Used?
How do you find the electron domain and molecular geometry?
Arrange the electron domains around the central atom to minimize repulsion. Count the total number of electron domains. Use the angular arrangement of the chemical bonds between the atoms to determine the molecular geometry. Keep in mind, multiple bonds (i.e., double bonds, triple bonds) count as one electron domain.
What are the 6 basic molecular shapes?
The 6 basic molecular shapes are linear, trigonal planar, angular (bent), tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, and trigonal bipyramidal.
What is the molecular geometry of PH3?
The molecular geometry of PH3 is trigonal pyramidal. We start with the Lewis structure of PH3. The molecule has eight valence electrons. Phosphorus
What molecular geometries are symmetrical?
In molecular geometries that are highly symmetrical (most notably tetrahedral and square planar, trigonal bipyramidal, and octahedral ), individual bond dipole moments completely cancel, and there is no net dipole moment.
How do you determine if a molecule is linear or nonlinear?
The key difference between linear and nonlinear molecules is that linear molecules have a chemical structure which is in a straight line whereas nonlinear molecules have a zig-zag or cross-linked chemical structure.
How do you tell if a molecule is trigonal planar or pyramidal?
What is the difference between Trigonal Planar and Trigonal Pyramidal? In trigonal planar, there are no lone pair electrons in the central atom. But in trigonal pyramidal there is one lone pair at the central atom.
What molecules have linear geometry?
Linear molecule is a molecule in which atoms are deployed in a straight line (under 180° angle). Molecules with an linear electron pair geometries have sp hybridization at the central atom. An example of linear electron pair and molecular geometry are carbon dioxide (O=C=O) and beryllium hydride BeH2.


All small businesses share something that no one can take away from them: passion. And, with online communication channels and networks, we can all share and enjoy that passion. How? By being human.
It's not your fault, we all forget that online interaction should be no different than face-to-face. Yes, you're talking and communicating to strangers but at the end of the day, if we forget the pictures, the likes and the follows, there's a live person on the other end of your computer and they deserve to be treated like so. When it comes to small businesses, it is imperative that you show your true self, go back to the basics and handle your online image as you would handle yourself in person.
C'mon, this takes no effort! When you talk to your friends, how do you explain what you do? In the online world, your customers are your best allies and for that, you need to build a relationship with them. To begin, it's always good to let them know where you're coming from, why you're pursuing the business and who are the faces behind the counter.
I particularly liked Erin Baker's super down to earth story on how she began her business. As you can see, it's as simple as taking the time to tell your story, add a blurb on your website or social profile so that your customers can get to know you more.
A healthy and successful business is always made out of a happy and well treated team. Whether it be flexible vacation time, free food or bonus payments, employees need to know their employers care about their well being. Let's go all the way to Pittsburg to find one of my favorite examples of small businesses taking a stand in favor of their employees: Bar Marco.
The owners of this fine dining restaurant are not afraid to talk about the importance of not accepting tips and paying a fair salary to their staff. This decision not only shows their human side but also has served them well by increasing their profits.
Now, empowering your employees doesn't have to cost you much if you're low on budget, it could be as easy as giving them their birthday day off or providing them with a half day on Fridays. Actually, how about bringing donuts and coffee in the morning to the office? Cheap and nice!
When you're face-to-face, it's easy to pay attention to what your customers are saying about you. Well, you should also find ways to do so online. Don't turn away from constructive criticism and feedback, embrace it and make changes instead!
Good ol' email address: Set up an account for people to request information, provide feedback or just connect with you.
Businesses should be helpful online. Being helpful is not only altruistic and human but it can take you a long way when connecting with someone online. How can you do that?
1. Prioritize customer service: Is someone having an issue that is preventing them from having a good experience with your business? Respond in a timely manner and offer a quick solution.
2. Use Social Media to help: Is someone asking for help with cleaning supplies and you have a product that can help, let them know you're there and go an extra mile by answering in a personalized way.
Customer service is very important for all companies, big and small, it makes all the difference.
I'm not saying you should take your online persona lightly, because you shouldn't. But, don't be afraid to show your brand's personality. Throw in a joke or two, as long as you keep away from offensive and insulting vocabulary.
In hindsight, being human online is just a matter of being yourself and owning up to your brand's personality and culture if you're behind the wheel! Don't sweat it.
Who do you think is doing it right? Let me know in the comments!

While trade shows are a fantastic place to get your company brand in front of thousands of potential buyers, guess what? There are hundreds of other companies who had the same thought, and they are doing everything they can to get attendees' attention.
A trade show game grabs and holds an attendee's attention. Their curiosity invites them to see what game a crowd of people may be playing. They want to win prizes. They want to compete. They want to see how well other people are scoring. They want to test their skill.
All these reasons compel attendees to enter your booth and play your game. In the process, attendees become more aware of your company brand (especially if the game is designed to match your brand colors, fonts, images, and logos, like ours do).
The fun of trade show games – and the potential to win prizes and bragging rights – drives greater booth traffic, filling your booth with more attendees who then become leads. And not just names, but true leads. Your booth staffers can talk to the visitors, ask qualifying questions, and determine which attendees are leads worth pursing after the show.
When attendees are on the defensive when walking a trade show floor. There are hundreds of companies vying for their attention, time, and potential business. So, attendees have their guard up.
That's where trade show games help you build relationships. Attendees who are having fun in your booth are grateful to your company for the amusement and view your booth staffers friends rather than adversaries.
When trade show games help generate more leads and stronger relationships, it's only natural that you will increase the sales from those leads. Depending on your company's usual sales cycle, you can see the boost in sales as your trade show leads close.
Be sure to track the results of your leads. Remind your sales team to keep in touch with these valuable trade show leads you've generated.
Tracking the sales results from your trade show leads is easier when your booth staffers are the same people following up with the leads. However, that is not the norm. The other way to better track your leads is with a web-based CRM system. If you don't have one, consider getting it!
When you as a trade show exhibitor are deep in the thousands of details executing your trade show program, it's easy to lose track of measuring your results. And for many exhibitors, return on investment (ROI) is the ultimate metric.

What's Vero? Is it a new King?
Vero is taken from the Latin language, meaning truth or to speak the truth.
"Vero is a social network for anyone who loves anything enough to share it – and wants control over who they share it with. Just like we do in real life" - Vero
In the last week Vero has seemingly blown up. Vero has been running for a while now so why the sudden action?
It appears, from what I can see, that this is due to Blogger/Influencer signups. Which I believe to be primarily due to the lack of marketing ads and algorithms (a big part of the Vero promotional video).
Vero have made it easy to assign your contacts to groups: Close Friends, Friends, Acquaintances and Followers. This is fairly similar to the set up Google+ had/has with circles, which was my favourite thing about Google+.
The lack of an algorithm and showing posts in chronological order has received lots of positive feedback initially. I believe this to be particularly relevant given all the 'feedback' Instagram has had lately.
Having had a little look around media appears to be a big, almost central, part of Vero. Kinda similar to MSN's I'm listening to feature (anyone remember that?). I believe there is a swipe to buy option and more 'buy now' links will be available as brands join and create a presences on the site.
Its not all positive though. Looking though the T&Cs you'll notice that you are signing over all rights to the things you upload. So not great for those that would post media content onto the site. I'm thinking mainly about photos here. However, I'm not sure that this is any different to other social media sites. I have always been of the option that Facebook owns everything you post on that site. Though I'm not 100% sure.
Membership fees... The money has to come from somewhere. If theres no marketing or ads and Vero are not holding your data then it makes sense that they would need to charge. Much like Friends Reunited did when it started up. I remember Mum sending her cheque of for her membership years (decades) back. But this will put some people off. Which leads to the next issue.
People. At the moment the only people I know on the site are fellow Bloggers. So my feed will be pretty samey and limiting on who I can connect with. Much like the reason I never really got on with Google+, if there isn't a spread of people you already know / connect with, then how much will you use the site? How engaging will it be?
I have said for about 3 years there will be a new social media site that will knock Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc out of the water. Like MSN, MySpace and Facebook before it, this new site will engage people in a new way and encrouapge users to share more and experience 'social media' in a new way.
Is Vero that site? I don't think so.
That said, that doesn't mean it will not find its own place in the social media field.
What do you think of Vero? Will you stay once you have to pay?

Jake's Take- Takin' Off
By Jacob Albert
So here it is, the last installment of "Jake's Take." In these 900 words, I will present my answer to the question I posed in the first installment back in February: What does Spokane have to offer people in their twenties?
It seemed like a fairly easy question that I would be able to answer easily. But alas, I am having one f-bombin' hell of a time with it.
Part of the problem is the question itself. Instead of asking what Spokane has to offer you, a better question might be what do you have to offer Spokane? (Thanks, JFK!)
Why is this better, you ask? Because trying to find things in Spokane that cater to 25-year-olds like myself, instead of thirtysomethings looking for a safe place with a family-friendly atmosphere that is "near nature, ahh, near perfect," is damn near impossible. Ultimately, this leads to a pessimistic view of this place so affectionately referred to as The Kan.
But look at what some people are doing for Spokane and suddenly a few vehicles of optimism pull into your empty surface parking-filled mind.
Spirit Skate Shop, the B-Side, Wells and Company, Funky Groovy Threads, Mootsy's Pizza, Studio 901, the Detour, Boo Radley's, Jimmy Z's, the Inlander and Local Planet (the closing of which was simply tragic for everything subversive in Spokane), local musicians, local artists and many other people and businesses are the ones doing their best to make Spokane a place people like me would like to live.
These examples are why I can say that Spokane has cool things going for it. I will never be able to convince people from out of town to visit with descriptions of NorthTown and the butterfly statues in Riverfront Park.
I will, though, if I can tell them that there's going to be a music festival with acts that only people under 30 (and maybe Mike Corrigan) have heard of, take them to a movie theater that shows indie movies served with some local beers, round up some bikes (oh, and helmets!) so we can take part in the monthly bicycle pub crawl, scour the bookshelves at that communist/socialist/anarchist bookstore in the alley behind that big building downtown, show them the offices of the publishing company I work for where I design and edit the web page.
But... I can't.
What I can do is hope they visit when Unified Groove Merchants is having its annual vinyl-swap, when the Spike coffee house is hosting the Quails from San Francisco (best show of my year), when Studio 901 is exhibiting artists I know, when we can hang out at my buddy's historic apartment in Browne's Addition or when we can eat at the Mexican truck for lunch and Kim's Korean Restaurant for dinner.
These are things I have done when people visited. The problem is that I didn't have much to do following the compact culture tour. That is when I noticed the cars leaving and found myself standing in an empty parking lot with my guest hitching a ride.
What needs to happen then? Obviously more young people, more support from young people for these places and events and more support from the city for local businesses when, say, Hoopfest or Bloomsday take over.
While most would admit that Spokane has improved, even during the year that I have been here, ominous forces still lurk as evidenced by the closing of Moon Shadow, Gabby's and Chicken 'n' More and the demolition of the Fort Spokane Brewery.
In the end, I look back to people I spoke with about Spokane, and only one person said, "It's cool here." Others may have mentioned that it's "getting better" or "could be cool," but if people living here have a hard time digging the city, how can it be a surprise that the most tempting move for that younger crowd is not toward Spokane but away?
Well that's it: I'm moving to NYC for grad school. I hope my one or two cents did something for this beloved -- and behated -- Spokane of mine.
Jake's Wish List
1. Start a record label to keep bands here and provide a source for local music and merchandise.
2. Open an indie movie theatre that serves food and drinks. I still remember going to the Magic Lantern as a kid and watching the guy in Never Cry Wolf eat mouse-and-saltine sandwiches.
3. Turn that warehouse building at Division and Riverside into a downtown supermarket. It's a great location, and there'd be parking galore once they move the Hoopfest baskets.
4. Make sure the proposed University District goes through. It's not hurting Boise or Seattle.
5. Create some trolleys or any form of public transportation that would connect downtown to Browne's Addition, the GU/Logan neighborhood, the Garland district and any other of the cooler areas in town.

Three takeaways: Bam Adebayo returns to lead Heat to first victory in Las Vegas

LAS VEGAS – The Miami Heat will not leave Las Vegas winless.
The Heat defeated Utah, 98-90, Tuesday for their first victory in three games in Las Vegas. Miami is 3-3 in summer league, including two wins in Sacramento.
Miami now will move onto tournament play. Every team qualifies and is guaranteed at least two more games. The Heat face the Pelicans at 4 p.m. Friday. If they win they play at 6:30 p.m. Saturday. If they lose they play at 4:30 p.m. Friday and are done. Miami lost to New Orleans, 110-84, on Saturday.
Bam Adebayo led the Heat with 24 points including going 14-of-16 from the free throw line. Adebayo, who was given off Sunday, played 24 minutes. He had nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and two steals.
The Heat were without summer league leading scorer Derrick Jones Jr., who sprained his right ankle in Sunday's loss to Charlotte.
First-round draft pick Grayson Allen of Duke scored 17 points for the Jazz.
Here are our three takeaways:
Bam is back: Adebayo was given off Sunday, a 94-90 loss to Charlotte, and returned well rested for Tuesday. Adebayo had his highest scoring game of summer league. He was active around the rim and aggressive going to the basket as his 16 free throws showed. Adebayo was 5-of-13 from the floor. The Heat would not say if they are shutting down Adebayo for their final two games.
"With my offseason work, that was something I had to get better at," Adebayo said about drawing fouls. "The coaching staff helped me with that throughout the whole offseason, so y'll are getting to see it all now."
Miami, Sioux falls now Mr. Robinson's neighborhood: Duncan Robinson became the newest member of the Heat organization when he signed his two-way contract Tuesday. Robinson's strength is his 3-point shooting and he made his first attempt Tuesday before finishing 3-of-7 on threes. The 6-foot-8 forward joined the Heat summer league team after going undrafted out of Michigan. He has started all six Heat summer league games.
"I'm just excited, incredibly fortunate, unbelievable organization," Robinson said. "Words can't quite put it into perspective. It's an incredible blessing."
Heat find their touch: After scoring just 18 points in the first quarter, the Heat scored 29 and 30 points in the middle two quarters, shooting 7-of-17 on threes. Daryl Macon made both of his threes in the second and third quarters and Rashad Vaughn had two threes, including a buzzer-beater at the end of the third quarter that gave the Heat an 11-point lead.
"We finally put a game together offensively," coach Eric Glass said . "When the ball's moving everybody feels like they're in rhythm. The shots are easier, they're going through more of a flow. I just thought as a team we really moved the ball around. And we hit the boards when we were missing, so it was a full-package game again today."

Is 'elite shooter' Duncan Robinson a candidate for Heat two-way contract?

LAS VEGAS – The Miami Heat should make a decision on at least one of their two-way contracts soon after summer league ends.
"I think we're probably leaning to maybe get a two-way done sometime after summer league and then we might keep one open just because we like the flexibility," said Chet Kammerer, the organization's vice president of player personnel.
"But we'll have to wait and see how it goes. That's some of our thinking now. We might hold one. Because it worked. As it turned out it proved pretty valuable."
Last year the Heat signed Derrick Walton Jr. to a two-way contract and then Matt Williams. Williams was then released to make room for Derrick Jones Jr., who was signed to a standard contract a little more than a week ago. Jones has been a star for the Heat this summer before spraining his right ankle in Sunday's loss to the Hornets.
The two-way contract, which under the current rules meant a player could not spend more than 45 days in the NBA while playing the rest of the season in the G League, does not have to come from the team's summer league roster. Any player not under a standard contract playing in the summer league can be signed by any team.
The Heat, though, may have one player in mind and could move quick to sign him to a two-day.
Duncan Robinson, an undrafted rookie out of Michigan, has shown why he finished his career with the fourth-most 3-pointers in Wolverines history. Robinson, who has started all five Heat games, is averaging 12.4 points on 57.8 percent shooting (22 of 38), including 62.9 percent (17 of 27) on threes.
Coach Eric Glass said Robinson, a 6-foot-8 small forward, was high on Kammerer's list when the draft ended and that Kammerer "doesn't miss on too many guys." Kammerer added Miami had several players it liked that it did not get, but were happy to receive a commitment from Robinson.
"He was high on our list," Kammerer said. "We liked him a lot. His ability to shoot. We talked to (Erik) Spoelstra. He talked about the one quality he likes the most or wants the most is shooters. To me he's an elite shooter and he's proven that so far here."
Kammerer has been impressed with more than just Robinson's shot. Robinson has said he felt like he "was labeled" at Michigan and is hoping to show he is more than a jump shooter.
"I think he's done a little bit more than we anticipated," Kammerer said. "He's had two dunks now off the dribble in the half court, which were kind of unexpected. And (Saturday) he had six rebounds in 20 minutes. Those are big factors.
"You look for other things. The more diverse his game is, is helpful for him. Still the key is for him to make shots. That's why he is valued as a player is his ability to stroke the ball and the fact that he's not 6-3. You like guys who are a little longer."
The Heat are 2-3 in summer league (2-1 in Sacramento and 0-2 in Las Vegas). They are off today and resume at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday against Utah at the Thomas & Mack Center on the UNLV campus.
The organization is not just evaluating the 14 players on its roster. Miami has divided the scouting duties between Kammerer, assistant general manager Adam Simon and Keith Askins, the director of college and pro scouting. By the end of the week the three will have seen all 30 teams at least once.
"I think at this point we're looking at the rosters of other teams. Derrick Walton didn't play for us (last summer) he played for another team," Kammerer said. "We're here evaluating other players we think could be a good fit for us. … We'll definitely have a good feel for everybody by the end of the week."

Derrick Jones Jr. is likely through for summer league after spraining right ankle in Heat's loss to Hornets

LAS VEGAS – For 7 ½ minutes, the Heat's Derrick Jones Jr. entertained the Cox Pavillion crowd Sunday with an assortment of dunks – either attacking the basket with the ball in his hands or by throwing down teammate's miss on the put back.
But late in the first quarter those "oohs" and "aahs" turned to cringes after Jones rolled his ankle and was helped off the court.
The early diagnoses is a sprained right ankle and Jones did not return for the Heat's 94-90 loss to the Hornets. Jones likely will not play again in summer league.
Jones was injured when he went up to block a shot and landed on somebody's foot. He emerged from the locker room following the game with just a brace on his ankle. He said he still felt pain but was never concerned it was anything worse.
"It's not something that I can't tolerate," he said. "Ankle sprains happen. It's the game of basketball. So you've got to do what you can do."
Coach Eric Glass was disappointed, especially after Jones' start. He made all four of his shots including three dunks and a 3-pointer.
"He was on his way to a game, so it's sort of disappointing," Glass said. "We'll see how he is tomorrow."
Jones has been Miami's best player during their first week of summer league games after signing a two-year contract on June 30. He averaged 21.3 points on 22-of-42 shooting in the three games in Sacramento, adding 22 rebounds, six steals and four blocks. He did not play in the Heat's first game in Las Vegas, a 110-84 loss to the Pelicans on Saturday.
Jones' athletic ability was a big hit with the crowds in both cities with several highlight reel dunks that brought the fans out of their seats. One of those to see a big improvement is his Heat teammate, Josh Richardson.
"He's been aggressive, attacking the rim," said Richardson, who has been at Miami's two games in Las Vegas. "His jump shot looks a lot better. He's been knocking threes down. I'm proud of the work he's put in."
Daryl Macon led the Heat with 17 points Sunday as Glass gave Bam Adebayo the game off. Adebayo had played in four straight games.
After calling Saturday's loss to New Orleans "embarrassing," Glass was much happier with the effort Sunday.
"We had an overall presence on the court," he said. "We had much better connection. We had much, much better communication. Our effort was better.
"It's never going to be perfect, especially in summer league. There's a lot of moving parts, a lot of new things. But that was a Miami Heat performance tonight. The last game I don't know what that was."
Landry Nnoko had 12 points and 13 rebounds for the Heat. Rashad Vaughn added 16 points.
The Heat (2-3 in summer league, 0-2 in Las Vegas) are off Monday. They return to action at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday against Utah.

LAS VEGAS – The Miami Heat gave their best player from the Sacramento summer league the day off Saturday and the result showed as much.
Miami fell behind the New Orleans Pelicans by 18 points at the half and things got worse in the second half in a 110-84 loss at the Cox Pavilion on the UNLV campus that coach Eric Glass called "embarrassing."
Derrick Jones Jr., who averaged 21.3 points in Sacramento, sat – as did guard Derrick Walton Jr. – as coach Glass gave significant time to a group of players who didn't get on the court much the first three games.
Bam Adebayo, though, logged heavy minutes for the fourth consecutive game and finished with nine points and four rebounds. Adebayo's turn to rest could come Sunday as the Heat face Charlotte at 2 p.m.
Duncan Robinson led the Heat with 18 points.
The Heat are 2-2 in summer leagues including 2-1 in Sacramento.
Glass not happy: For the first time this week, Glass was angry following the game. The Heat allowed the Pelicans to shoot 58.1 percent (43 of 74) from the floor, 50 percent (11 of 22) on threes. New Orleans had 52 points in the paint. Miami was 8 of 31 (25.8 percent) on threes.
When asked who stood out, Glass said: "Nobody stood out to me tonight. That was an embarrassing performance and it started with the head coach."
Glass then was asked what bothered him most: "Everything. Lack of energy, lack of effort, lack of intensity, connection on the court. It was an embarrassing game."
Robinson more than a shooter: As the fourth-most prolific three-point shooter in University of Michigan history, Robinson was known for his perimeter game and has shown that skill during summer league. But Robinson is determined to show he is more than a jump shooter and he's done a nice job.
Robinson continues to impress, not only with his outside shooting but had several plays at the rim in Sacramento and continued that in the Heat's Las Vegas opener with two early baskets on drives to the basket. Robinson, who scored 19 points in Miami's victory over the Lakers in Sacramento, has been the most impressive player among the undrafted rookies and could be putting himself in a good spot for a two-way contract, from someone if not from the Heat.
Robinson, who also had a nice block on a layup attempt by the Pelicans' Walter Lemon Jr., he was 7-of-10 from the floor and 4-of-6 on threes against New Orleans.
"I felt like I was labeled a lot in college," Robinson said. "Not to discredit anything I did in college, but I feel like there's more to my game than just that. It's a great opportunity to be out here and showcase it. I'm thankful for the opportunity and just trying to continue to grow and hopefully make some noise."
Getting some playing time: Glass gave heavy minutes to Rashad Vaughn, Matt Farrell, Ike Nwamu and Jarrod Jones on Saturday. Vaughn, who is trying to rehabilitate his career after being the 17th overall pick in 2015, finished with 11 points. Farrell, an undrafted rookie from Notre Dame, finished with six assists but was 4-of-13 from the floor. Nwamu, who play the last two years in Sioux Falls, had seven points.
Jones, who has played the last six seasons in Europe, was the most impressive with 15 points and 12 rebounds. Jones played just eight minutes in Sacramento, sitting two of the three games.
"Every game you might not get to play but the minutes that we get I just personally want to go out there and play hard and prove to all the teams in the league that I can play at this level," Jones said.

LAS VEGAS – As shot after shot continued to do everything except fall through the basket in Sacramento, Heat guard Derrick Walton Jr. was determined not to allow it to throw him off his game.
Walton just reminded himself what Heat summer coach Eric Glass preached about the summer.
"What's important to us is he's playing defense," Glass said after the Heat's 86-76 victory over the Kings on Thursday, closing out the Sacramento portion of their summer league winning 2-of-3.
"I think you all have seen it the first three games. He's really taken a commitment. He wasn't doing that stuff consistently all year and he's really taken it upon himself to take the challenge on that end. And he's battling his butt off."
Walton had a nightmarish week from the floor in Sacramento, shooting 18.5 percent (5 of 27) and 16.7 percent (3 of 18) on 3-pointers in the three games. But it was worse after two games. Walton missed all but two of his 18 attempts and made just 1-of-14 threes.
So when Walton saw his first two shots fall against the Kings, both threes, it still felt good, even thought his shooting woes were not what the coaches were focusing on.
"I wasn't shooting to my normal standards but you go through spells like that," he said. "I just had to make sure I was doing other things. … just being disruptive, getting us into the offense. Just making other plays. I always know my shot would come but it was satisfying to see one go through today."
Walton added seven assists and no turnovers Thursday. He averaged 6.67 assists for the three games.
Walton, 23, starred at Michigan but was undrafted in 2017. He is seeking a second two-way contract after being extended a qualifying offer from the Heat. He was on a two-way deal the entire 2017-18 season and split time between Miami and Sioux Falls of the G League. At Sioux Falls, Walton averaged 16.1 points and shot 44.2 percent from the floor.
He also averaged 7.0 assists. The Heat are looking for him to become more of a natural leader at point guard.
"I've been doing the point guard thing my entire life so it's kind of second nature," Walton said. "The way we're playing with some experimental stuff, I'm just trying to make sure I'm doing stuff in the flow of the offense, I'm just trying to put my head down and make a play."
The Heat open play in the Las Vegas summer league at 2 p.m. Saturday against New Orleans. Walton has a laundry list of things he wants to continue to work on in Vegas, where the Heat will play a minimum of five games.
Areas like being more disruptive on defense, getting back into the play when he's screened and continuing to lead by example and voice.
Also on that list: Shoot the ball like he's accustomed to shooting.
"He's a good enough shooter," Glass said. "We tell him if he passes up open shots that we're going to be pissed. So just keep shooting it. Those things are going to fall. I'm not worried about that. Just get into your defense the shot will come."

LAS VEGAS – Miami Heat assistant coach Eric Glass has one directive from his boss, head coach Erik Spoelstra, when it comes to summer league.
"He said 'do whatever you want and don't be afraid to make a mistake,'" Glass said. "Which was huge for me.
"He gave me incredible trust and leeway."
Glass is leading Miami through two summer leagues, having just won 2-of-3 games in Sacramento and now moving onto Las Vegas where the Heat will compete in the NBA Summer League starting at 5 p.m. Saturday with a game against New Orleans.
Glass, 34, is next in a line of Heat coaches who got their start in the video room, eventually moved to the bench and started to make their bones in summer league. With thousands of hours in the video room and for the last two years as the Heat's player development coach, Spoelstra believes Glass is "more than ready" for the challenge.
"EG doesn't even know how ready he is for this," Spoelstra said. "I always compare it to the Karate Kid. Wax on, wax off. You do that a million times behind the scenes and you have no idea watching all those films and those situations, ATOs, sideline out of bounds, doing game preps. Doing those 82 times a year, plus playoff and preseason, you're doing 100 a year plus for several years. You already have a lot of reps. And he's already been in front of the team in walk throughs and shootarounds and film sessions.
"Part of stepping forward and coaching is being able to make your decisions and that's why I've just stepped back."
Glass joined the organization in 2010 as an intern in the video room. His first coaching experiences came with the 9th-grade team at his alma mater, Corona del Mar High School in Newport Beach, Calif.; then as a student and graduate assistant at Cal State Fullerton and helping out the staff at UC Irvine.
Glass' career then received a big boost when Spoelstra trusted him with the duties of video coordinator in 2013, a position that has been manned by a succession of high-profile NBA coaches and executives.
Here are some of the names to come through the Heat's video room:
Spoelstra, Knicks coach David Fizdale, Hawks general manager Travis Schlenk, former Hawks GM Wes Wilcox, Wizards executive Brett Greenberg, Magic assistant coach Pat Delany, Heat assistant coach Dan Craig and Heat assistant GM Adam Simon.
"It all starts with the head coaches we've had," Glass said.
"They're great coaches, they're demanding coaches. Everything is kind of coming through the video room. It's like getting a PhD. You're there, you're the one that's around when the head coach is around. You're always the one doing any little edit, any big edit so you kind of have an insight to what the head coach is thinking which has been huge for my personal experience."
Glass' first experience on the bench with an NBA coach came in Ukraine, where he served as an assistant under Mike Fratello for two years (2011-13). While the Heat have an old school approach, Glass describes Fratello's approach as "old, old school."
"He's very detailed, very thorough with everything," Glass said. "I think he brought 10 suitcases. About four of them were notepads and binders from Memphis, from Atlanta. He was up all night, everything was scattered but when we got to practice he knew everything that was going on."
Then came stints as a summer league assistant coach under Juwan Howard and Chris Quinn. A year ago, Glass took over for one game in Orlando as Quinn was called back to Miami when the Heat were recruiting Gordon Hayward.
"He helped me a ton last year," Quinn said. "As an assistant you have a role and you have a lot of responsibilities and as a head coach that just gets bumped up, the pressures. In summer league, you get three weeks of barely a taste of what it is to be a real head coach."
When asked about his playing career, Glass admits, "I wasn't any good." Which is why he decided not to push back his dream of one day being a coach by walking on at a junior college after playing at Corona del Mar.
"I fell in love with it," Glass said about coaching. "I wanted to give it a shot. I wanted to do it early so I could progress and not try to play a busted career."
Glass received his undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at Fullerton before going through the Masters program. Then came his PhD at Miami Heat University, a.k.a. The Video Room.
"I think all of us are different personalities," Glass said. "I've taken little pieces from here and there. Ideas. The chalk-talk we throw up on the board in the offseason, if we want to talk about it or we want to look at it we do it in summer league. Sink or swim type deal."

Three takeaways: Heat end Sacramento summer league with another impressive performance

SACRAMENTO – The Mimi Heat apparently needed a warm up in the California Classic summer league before putting it all together.
The Heat concluded their three-games with an 86-76 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Thursday for their second consecutive impressive win.
Miami (2-1) outscored the Lakers and Kings by a combined 25 points in its final two games after a 79-68 loss to Golden State in the opener.
Derrick Jones Jr. lead the Heat in scoring all three games, finishing with 19 points and seven rebounds against Sacramento.
"Everybody is just going out there with a selfless attitude," Jones said. "I really don't care about self-accolades in the summer league right now. I score, I score. If I don't I'm going to play defense regardless and make sure my teammates are in the right spot on defense, make sure they're in the right spot on offense."
The Kings (1-2) were playing with four players taken within the first 34 picks of the draft the last two years including first rounders Harry Giles (No. 20 in 2017), Justin Jackson (No. 15 in 2017) and Marvin Bagley (No. 2 in 2018). A fourth first rounder, De'Aaron Fox, played in the Kings first game but sat out the last two.
Frank Mason (No. 34 in 2018) also was on the roster.
The Heat now move onto the summer league in Las Vegas, where they begin play at 5 p.m. Saturday against New Orleans.
Defense the key: Heat coach Eric Glass was pleased with the defense, especially the last two games, holding the Lakers and Kings to 150 points. The Lakers needed a 24-point fourth quarter – after Miami opened a 31-point lead – to push their shooting percentage to 40.5 percent and the Heat forced the Kings into 21 turnovers.
"Anytime you can get stops and play off misses or play off turnovers, which they didn't miss as much tonight, but we forced them into 21 turnovers, that always helps your offense," Glass said. "You know us. We hang our hat on defense. We're going to grind games out. It's where we take our pride."
M-V-P, M-V-P: Jones' confidence is growing with every game. The newest member of the Heat's 15-man roster (Jones signed a two-year contract Saturday) averaged 21.3 points on 22-of-42 shooting in the three games and added 22 rebounds, six steals and four blocks. Jones' athletic ability was a big hit with the enthusiastic crowds with several highlight reel dunks that brought the fans out of their seats.
"He's playing off the charts right now," Bam Adebayo said. "His head is high. We follow him. He's in a zone."
Bam on the boards: Adebayo, the Heat's first-round pick in 2017, struggled again from the floor but the Heat were pleased with his all-around game in Sacramento. Adebayo scored 14 points and had nine rebounds on Thursday. He finished the three games with 37 points on 11-of-32 shooting (34.3 percent) and 34 rebounds.
"He's pissed I took him out with 30 seconds because he wants another rebound," Glass said. "I like that. He boxes out, rebounds in traffic, rebounds with two hands and he's battling down there. He has some big guys who are playing against him every game and he's taking ownership of that paint."

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra's observations on his team and more from summer league
Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and agent Joe Branch during summer league in Sacramento.
SACRAMENTO – Erik Spoelstra isn't used to being in a gym and not sitting in the front row, yelling out instructions and in command of everything from who's in the game to what sets are being run.
But during summer league the Miami Heat coach, who is entering his 11th season as a head coach, fades into the background, sitting in the stands and soaking in the play of a group of young Heat players.
Spoelstra was in the stands for two of Miami's three games in Sacramento, including Thursday's 86-76 victory over the Kings, giving summer league coach Eric Glass his space. He will follow the team to Las Vegas where it begins play Saturday. And Spoelstra likes what he has seen so far. … especially from the team's marquee player and future star, Bam Adebayo.
"He's had a great six weeks of training," Spoelstra said before the Heat's game against the Kings on Thursday.
"(Glass) has challenged Bam to be the loudest defender in summer league. The staff has challenged him to be the top rebounder in summer league and that's defensive and offensive. We want the pursuit, the constant effort, the activity to keep on going to the glass and I'm seeing that.
"The other parts of his game he's been developing and I want him to explore handling the ball more, being more offensive minded, that's what summer league is for. He's put in a tremendous amount of time. His confidence has grown. I think he'll be more efficient as summer league goes on."
Spoelstra has seen a lot to be happy about in his three days in Sacramento. He cited the effort on the defensive end and the way the team has shared the ball. Miami had 27 assists on 33 field goals in a victory over the Lakers on Tuesday.
"Your natural instincts are to try to impress everybody who is watching by doing things on your own," he said. "But that's not how the game of basketball (is played) when you want to have team success. The guys that stand out historically for us bought into team basketball and finding a way to continuing to be noticed within team concept."
Spoelstra also touched on other players and topics Thursday. Here are some of his thoughts:
On visiting the Atlanta Falcons minicamp June 12: "I like visiting coaches and business people and leaders during the off-season just to continue to try to get better and get different perspectives. (Falcons coach) Dan Quinn is somebody that I met years ago. I think he runs a great program up in Atlanta. The way he does things and connects with players, the modern-day athlete, the environment he creates and the culture that he cultivates are so noteworthy that I wanted to see it firsthand."
Welcome to ATL, Coach Spoelstra. 👋 @MiamiHEAT pic.twitter.com/MKAOoaHqHT
— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) June 12, 2018
On forward Derrick Jones Jr. who has shined in summer league after signing a contract on Saturday: "He's been terrific. He's been all in with all the work. He wants more. Those guys tend to do well in our program. I was really happy for him when he signed the contract. It's not easy in this league when you're not drafted and then somebody cuts you. You have to show a level of grit and determination to be able to re-start. He did that, he trusted us to help him with that. His next step as a pro, it's been fun to watch him improve."
On undrafted rookie Duncan Robinson who had 19 points on Tuesday: "We love our shooters. He's unique. He's a big shooter. He's one of the best standstill shooters that we've seen coming out of the draft. He has to develop diversity and complexity and level of difficulty shooting the basketball often on the move, those things. But those are the things we like to develop and we'll want to see if a player can take the next step. We thought he'd be a very good fit with how we play and how we value shooting."

SACRAMENTO – Coach Eric Glass saw it from the time Duncan Robinson stepped onto the court last week for the Miami Heat's summer league training camp.
Glass knew there was something different about the 6-foot-8 forward. Robinson was beyond his 24 years. He was someone who took advantage of playing four years of college and above all, someone who soaked in all the knowledge he received while playing for three seasons at Michigan under coach John Beilein.
"Just his command on the floor," Glass said about what he immediately noticed about Robinson.
"Nothing surprises him. When guys are loud and they vocalize things early it's because they see things early. The guys that are quieter are maybe the ones that don't see things as quickly."
Glass gives credit to Beilein, who had Robinson for four years (one as a red-shirt) after he transferred to Michigan. But Robinson had more than basketball smarts as evidenced by his early years as a student at the prestigious Governor's Academy, a prep school in Byfield Mass., and one postgraduate year at Phillips Academy in Exeter, N.H. So it was no wonder he was member of the 2018 Big Ten All-Academic team.
"He's just a bright kid and he has an ability to focus on detail and he can transfer and absorb a lot of information," Glass said. "That's definitely a skill of his."
Robinson was on the radar of Heat vice president of player personnel Chet Kammerer throughout the draft process and when he went undrafted last month the Heat pounced. And Tuesday's second game of the California Classic showed why.
After a ho-hum summer league opener in which he scored three points, Robinson broke out with 19 points in the Heat's 89-74 victory over the Lakers. He was 7-of-9 from the field and connected on all but one of his six 3-point shots.
"We were able to get him the ball, the ball was moving a little bit more," Glass said. "He didn't get too many touches (in the first game). The ball moves and he finds it and he doesn't miss very often."
The Heat concludes play in the California Classic Thursday with a 5 p.m. game against Sacramento. They then move onto the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas where they begin play Saturday.
Robinson's stroke is smooth and easy and became his calling card at Michigan. But he is attempting to get the focus off his shooting and move it to his all-around game.
"I can make shots but I do a little bit more than that," he said.
And Glass understands why those parts of Robinson's game are overlooked.
"He's more athletic than you would think he is, he's more competitive than you think he is, he's quicker than you think he is," Glass said. "We like his skill set. That was somebody that Chet went after right away as soon as the draft was over. You can see why. Chet doesn't miss on too many guys."
That athletic ability was on display early Tuesday when, after making three 3-pointers in the first 2:48 of the game, he drove the baseline for a thunderous dunk early in the second quarter.
"I'm sure I have plenty of texts giving me a hard time saying 'When was the last time I saw you dunk?'" Robinson said. "It's nice to get one. Hopefully I can get a few more before the summer is over."
Robinson's road was not typical of the more noted one-and-done players who barely stay long enough in college to take an exam. In fact, Robinson took the exact opposite route spending five-years in school and starting out at tiny Williams College in Williamstown, Mass., where he was Division III's top freshman, an All-American and led Williams to the Division III title game in his one year there.
Robinson then became the first player to transfer from a Division III to a Division I school with a full scholarship. He made an immediate impact at Michigan, mainly because of his outside shooting. He closed his three-year career fourth in the Wolverines history with 237 made 3-pointers and 1,072 points while playing in all 115 games.
Robinson, who averaged 9.3 points in his Michigan career and helped the Wolverines get the NCAA title game in April before losing to Villanova, credited Beilein and his staff for his growth.
"They really focus on the complete player, not just from the skills perspective, but the amount of time he puts into growing us as basketball minds and making sure we understand the why of what we're doing," he said.
But the credit goes to Robinson for becoming the shooter he has, a skill that could help get him get an NBA two-way contract, possibly with the Heat.
"A lot of reps," he said. "I'm a big believer there's no right way to shoot. It's whatever's comfortable and you just have to rep it out.
"That's kind of how I've lived my whole life. I love being in the gym and that's just how I've always been, getting them up. I have a very specific routine I stick to and kind of grown and kind of tweaked and changed throughout my career. But I stick to it."

Three takeaways: Heat find 3-point range early, defeat Lakers for first summer league win

SACRAMENTO – The Miami Heat had a tough time scoring in their summer league opener. That certainly wasn't the case Tuesday in Game 2.
Miami came out firing and ran the Lakers off the Golden 1 Center court in an 89-74 victory, evening their record to 1-1 in the California Classic.
Miami struggled in their 79-68 loss to the Warriors in the opener, shooting just 29.3 percent. Against the Lakers, the Heat led by 19 at the half, opened a 31 points lead, and had 79 points after three quarters before cooling off in the fourth quarter. They finished shooting 45.2 percent from the floor, 46.4 percent on 3-pointers.
"I thought it was character building as a team, and as individuals," Heat coach Eric Glass said. "You get up 20 in the first half you don't let it go, you just keep grinding and you keep playing each possession like it's your last. All the clichés that you hear but our guys really started to take it to another level in the second half and I was really happy with that."
Derrick Jones Jr. led the Heat in scoring for the second straight night, scoring 21 points in 22 minutes. Bam Adebayo had nine points and 10 rebounds.
Robinson raining threes: Heat coaches were impressed with undrafted rookie Duncan Robinson even before the former Michigan star showed off his perimeter game Tuesday. Robinson came out smoking, making three early threes and setting the tone for Miami's night. Robinson, a player the Heat could consider for a two-way contract, finished with 19 points on 7-of-9 shooting, including making all but one of his six 3-point attempts. The 6-foot-8 Robinson, who shot 41.9 percent on threes during his three-year college career, not only showed off his range but his first two-point field goal was a thundering baseline dunk.
"We made some early so we kind of got some confidence early on, which always helps," Robinson said. "But I thought the ball just moved a little bit better. (Monday) was our first time playing with each other in a game. So it takes a second to kind of get that feel and I feel like we were a lot better."
Jones continues to impress: Jones is looking more and more like a bargain after signing a minimum standard contract Saturday. Jones impressed for a second consecutive night. He was 8-of-14 from the floor and had five rebounds, three steals and four blocks. Jones, who had 24 points on Monday, is 15-of-28 from the floor, including 5-of-9 on threes. Jones' confidence is growing and if he continues at this pace he could push for a spot in the Heat rotation this season. The only thing Jones hasn't done well is shoot free throws. He is 10-of-19 from the line.
"Just seeing a guy like that, just pure athleticism he thinks is normal," Adebayo said. "He makes inspiring plays. He goes out there plays his heart out. … I feel like Derrick is a Heat guy. He never got discouraged. He just kept working you you're seeing the finished product of Derrick right now."
Heat share the ball: The Heat finished with 27 assists on 33 field goals, quite an improvement from Monday when they had 12 assists on 22 baskets. Daryl Macon, an undrafted rookie out of Arkansas, started after not playing on Monday and lead all players with 11 assists. Macon finished sixth in the SEC last season with 3.9 assists per game.
"He really showed some nice things," Glass said. "He can defend, he can shoot the ball and he can get in that gap and make plays. That's not an easy thing to get in that sweet spot make plays."

Q: Is there a standard notation to define a tuple? So I have a matrix $A=[a_{ij}]_{\forall\,i,j\in\{1,\dots,n\}}$.
I have no problem to define a set $S$ as $S:=\{j: j=\text{argmax}_{j'}\; a_{ij'},\forall i\in\{1,\dots,n\} \}$ for example. In fact, I have seen sets defined this way many times.
Now my problem is with tuple. Is it correct to use the same for tuple. So, can I say "let $A$ be the tuple $A:=(j: j=\text{argmax}_{j'}\; a_{ij'},\forall i\in\{1,\dots,n\} )$." or this makes no sense?
EDIT
In fact, I have a bad time finding some mathematical object that is like array in programming language. So I can access elements of that object, find its size, add elements, remove elements, etc. Is there any mathematical object like this?

A: Perhaps list comprehension is what you're after? I should add that mathematicians don't use this notation very often (probably to our detriment).

A: I would just write the tuple out to avoid any confusion or ambiguity with the order:
$$x = (x_1,\ldots,x_n),\ x_i = \operatorname{argmax}_j a_{ij}$$
Edit: Mathematical objects don't need to be "implemented". Just write what you want your reader to understand. To add an element $y$ to $x = (x_1,\ldots,x_n)$, just write "$x' = (x_1,\ldots,y,\ldots,x_n)$ where $y$ is inserted in the $i$-th position". To define its size, write "Let $n$ be the length of $x$.". To remove an element, write $(x_1,\ldots,x_{i-1},x_{i+1},...,x_n)$.

A: What do we typically write for the type of a tuple?  Usually something like $\mathbb{R}^n$, say, for a $n$-tuple of real numbers.  What does this notation mean?  We could say that it means "multiply" $\mathbb{R}$ with itself $n$ times, i.e. $\mathbb{R}\times\cdots\times\mathbb{R}$.  Alternatively, we could view $n$ as standing for the set $\{1,...,n\}$ and $\mathbb{R}^n$ as the function space $n \to \mathbb{R}$.  This is completely consistent.  An array is just a function, usually from a finite input space.  A sequence is just a function from $\mathbb{N}$.  A matrix is just a function $m\times n \to \mathbb{R}$.
From this perspective you can simply say the tuple $x = i \mapsto \text{argmax}_j A(i,j)$ treating your matrix, $A$, as a function too, because hey, why not?  You can, of course, use subscripting as a notational variation on function application leading to ryanblack's answer rationalized: $x_i = \text{argmax}_j A_{ij}$
You can define "array" operations on this representation if you like, e.g. prepending an element would look like: $$\text{prepend}(a,x)\equiv i \mapsto \begin{cases}a, & i = 0\\ x_{i-1}, & i \neq 0\end{cases}$$ As ryanblack suggests though, mathematician's are rarely this precise or detailed.

Central Park Tower Approaches 1,550-Foot Pinnacle, Nears Tallest Roof Height in New York City & The Western Hemisphere
8:00 am on December 31, 2018 By Michael Young
Wrapping up the year and YIMBY's construction countdown, it comes as no surprise that Extell's Central Park Tower tops the list. The supertall will soon become New York City's tallest residential building, and it will also have the highest roof of any structure in the Five Boroughs. The 1,550-foot-tall tower is being designed by Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture. The site has previously gone by its address, 217 West 57th Street. The building has now surpassed its 90th floor, and currently stands over 1,300 feet atop 57th Street.
SHoP Architects' "Stairway to Heaven" Nears Pinnacle at 111 West 57th Street, Atop Billionaire's Row
111 West 57th Street is nearing the upper section of its topmost residential and mechanical floors. With a height to width ratio of 24:1, the SHoP Architects-designed tower will soon become the most slender building in the world. It is the 2nd-tallest skyscraper under construction in New York City, and will soon climb to an 1,438-foot-high pinnacle between Sixth and Seventh Avenues. The supertall is being developed by JDS Development and Property Markets Group, and Douglas Elliman is in charge of sales and marketing for the 46 condominiums within.
One Vanderbilt Surpasses The Metlife Building, Climbs Onwards To 1,401 Foot Pinnacle Above Midtown
One Vanderbilt quickly climbed into the Midtown skyline in 2018, in what seemed like the fastest climb of any supertall to rise in Manhattan in recent years. After growing past street level last winter, the superstructure has now passed the height of the Metlife Building across the street from Grand Central Station, and is on pace to top-out by the middle of 2019. The 58-story building is being designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and developed by SL Green. 1.75 million square feet of commercial office space and a reported three-story observation deck will soon result, upon completion, and One Vanderbilt is the third-tallest skyscraper currently being built in New York City.
30 Hudson Yards and Its Extruded Outdoor Observation Deck Approach Opening Day in 2019
As the tallest skyscraper in Hudson Yards and the 4th-tallest under construction in New York City, 30 Hudson Yards makes a notable impact on the Midtown skyline with its impressive height and prominent crown. The 1,296-foot-tall office building stands 73 stories above 10th Avenue and West 33rd Street, and will soon open its doors for business. Its observation deck will be the highest in New York, and that component will also contain an extruded outdoor viewing platform. Kohn Pedersen Fox is the architect, while Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group are the developers of the tower, part of the first phase of Hudson Yards.
Work Continues for 45 Broad Street, the Financial District's First Impending Residential Supertall
Located to the south of the New York Stock Exchange on a narrow rectangular strip of land along Broad Street, the Financial District's first residential supertall will soon rise at 45 Broad Street. The tower will eventually soar 1,115 feet above the crowded streets of Lower Manhattan, and should make a very dramatic impact on the skyline in the coming years. Clad with bronze-colored aluminum panels and an intricate mix of sleek vertical and curved lines, it is the 5th-tallest skyscraper currently under construction in New York City. CetraRuddy is the architect, while the developers are Madison Equities and Pizzarotti LLC.
Excavation Work for Brooklyn's First Supertall Continues at 9 DeKalb Avenue, In Downtown Brooklyn
Major progress has been made for Brooklyn's first supertall over the past several weeks. Excavation has continued apace, and more materials have also been delivered to 9 DeKalb Avenue as the year wraps up. The tower is the 6th-tallest building under construction in YIMBY's end-of-year countdown, and will dramatically change the skyline of Brooklyn in the coming years. Designed by SHoP Architects and developed by JDS Development and the Chetrit Group, the 1,066-foot-tall residential and mixed-use project will house approximately 500 housing units atop its rejuvenation of an historic retail podium.
Final Segment of 53 West 53rd Street's Apex Installed Atop Midtown Manhattan
Last week, the final piece of the third and highest apex of Jean Nouvel's first residential skyscraper was anchored and installed over Midtown. 53 West 53rd Street now stands 1,050 feet tall, and is currently the 7th-tallest skyscraper under construction in New York City. With its distinct pointed crown and dark diagrid facade, it is certainly a very unique building, and has been in the making for over a decade. The tower is being developed by Hines, while SLCE Architects and Adamson Associates are the architects of record. The condominiums are being marketed by Corcoran.
Tishman Speyer's BIG Supertall Spiral Gets Ready To Rise Above Ground at 66 Hudson Boulevard, In Hudson Yards District
Taking up one full block bound by West 34rd Street, West 35th Street, Tenth Avenue, and Eleventh Avenue, 66 Hudson Boulevard is currently the eighth-tallest building under construction in YIMBY's end-of-year countdown. Designed by Bjarke Ingels Group, the glass commercial office supertall will literally put a spin on the idea of the outdoor terrace. The 65-story tower is being developed by Tishman Speyer, with foundations already progressing for the 1,031-foot-tall and 2.85 million square foot structure. The official non-marketing address for the project is 509 West 34th Street.
Excavation & Foundation Work Make Headway for Norman Foster-Designed 50 Hudson Yards
Work on Hudson Yards' largest commercial office tower is continuing apace at 50 Hudson Yards. Located across the street to the north of 30 Hudson Yards, the last site under construction as part of Related's Phase I sits along Tenth Avenue and West 34th Street. It is being designed by architect Lord Norman Foster of Foster + Partners, and is currently the ninth-tallest being built in New York City. Related Companies, Oxford Properties, and Mitsui Fudosan are the developers for this project.
35 Hudson Yards, Neighborhood's First Residential Supertall, Readies for Spring 2019 Opening As Work Nears Completion
Standing in between Kohn Pedersen Fox's 55 Hudson Yards and Thomas Heatherwick's Vessel staircase, 35 Hudson Yards rises 1,009 feet above the rail yards as the 10th-tallest skyscraper under construction in New York City. Designed by Skidmore Owings & Merrill, the 92-story mixed-use building will house 143 condominiums, a 217-key Equinox Hotel from the 15th floor to the 29th floor, and retail shops on the ground floor and second floor. This will be the tallest residential building at Hudson Yards and the third tallest in the first phase of the $28 billion dollar complex. Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group Inc. are the developers of the 1.1 million square foot tower.


Good morning everyone! I hope everyone had a great Easter. I made a lot of food this weekend, so we'll be having lots of leftovers. I didn't make hardly anything that was on my menu last week. My hubby was out of town for a few days and things just got busy. We'll see what this week brings.
Check back later this week for the best birthday cake tip ever! And, don't forget to post your menu this week, big or small (I love them all)! Excuse the cheesy rhyming! Have a good week.
