Discover Brisbane's best eateries, experiences and events and plan your ideal Brisbane day out with the free Brisbane app.
With endless, clear, sunny skies and nature aplenty, there's a range of great options for walking in Brisbane. We've scoped out the best options for a bushwalk, riverside walk, and even the best lookouts in Brisbane. So, lace up and get ready to see views of Brisbane from new and exciting perspectives.
1. Milne Hill Reserve, Chermside West
Climb to new heights at our newly refurbished lookout at Milne Hill Reserve in Chermside West. You can follow your feet all the way around to Chermside Hills Reserve for some of the best bushwalks in Brisbane. This track is perfect for a young family, with the trail to the outlook only a short 300-400 metre hike. There is plenty of wildlife to observe, including two tawny frogmouths and wallabies, as well as spectacular plants including Pomax, Banksia, and native iris.
Location: 825 Hamilton Road, Chermside West
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. Dog off-leash area available nearby at Stringy Bark Drive.
Pram friendly: No, but the path is gentle enough for older toddlers.

2. Keperra Bushland Reserve, Keperra
Keperra Bushland Reserve is a green oasis with a new scenic lookout at the top overlooking The Gap. There are a handful of car parks located at Levitt Road, which is the starting point for the 2.5 kilometre return trail. Best of all this trail is suitable for dogs on a leash, so no need to leave your four-legged friend at home! There are also other hikes with a decent gradient for an extra cardio challenge.
Location: 92 Levitt Road, Keperra
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash
Pram/scooter friendly: No
3. Kedron Brook Bikeway, Kedron
The Kedron Brook Bikeway on Brisbane's northside offers 16 kilometres of pathway. You'll be amazed at how this easy-to-follow, flat path transforms from bright, green grass and dense bushland to wetland and wide-open fields that allow the bright, blue sky to take centre stage. Certainly, a Brisbane walk not to be missed!
Location: Multiple access points along the bikeway, between Mitchelton and Nundah
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. A designated unfenced dog off-leash and swimming area is available at Kedron Brook, adjoining Tuckeroo Park
Pram and scooter friendly: Yes
4. Enoggera Creek Bikeway, Windsor
The Enoggera Creek Bikeway is paved, generally flat, well signposted, and follows the creek through a series of parks for a few hassle-free kilometres surrounded by plenty of greenery. The multi-use, 13-kilometre pathway weaves through Brisbane's northern suburbs of Windsor, Wilston and Newmarket. From there it's just two kilometres to Bancroft Park and four kilometres to Downey Park. Not far from Downey Park is Eildon Hill Reservoir which is well worth the effort to take in Brisbane from the upgraded viewing platform and lookout.
Location: Multiple access points along the bikeway
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. A dog off-leash area is available at Northey Street Park.
5. Sandgate Foreshore, Sandgate
If you hail from the northside, you can't go past the spectacular 6.5 kilometre Sandgate Foreshore promenade for a stunning Brisbane walking adventure. Stretching from Shorncliffe to the Ted Smouth Memorial Bridge, it is simply one of the most beautiful waterside walks you can stumble upon and is just a 30-minute drive or 35-minute train ride from the Brisbane CBD. Watch the sun sparkle across the water, all the way to Moreton Island, while you soak up some vitamin D without breaking a sweat, thanks to the cool ocean breeze.
Location: Flinders Parade, Sandgate
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. Dog off-leash areas are available at Decker Park on 25th Avenue, Brighton and on the sand between Second Avenue, Sandgate and Zeehan Street, Shorncliffe.
6. Mt Coot-tha Reserve, Mt Coot-tha
If you are serious about walking in Brisbane, you can't go past the mountain! With 70 different trails to explore and plenty of canopy cover, walking at Mt Coot-tha Reserve is a breeze at any time of the day. Less than a 20-minute drive from the city, the J. C. Slaughter Falls picnic area is at the heart of the Mt Coot-tha precinct and is a great start point for a number of beautiful nature trails, as well as the 1.9-kilometre Summit Track up to the famous Mt Coot-tha Lookout. Have a stretch or coffee at the cafe and soak up the incredible views of Brisbane and Moreton Bay before walking back down. Mt Coot-tha boasts more than 50 kilometres of trails for those who want to breathe easy among the trees, with interesting terrain that's not overly rugged.
Location: 200 Mt Coot-tha Road, Mt Coot-tha
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. A dog off-leash area is available at Anzac Park, Toowong.
Pram and scooter friendly: No, but some tracks, such as the Discovery Trail (linking J. C. Slaughter Falls to Simpson Falls) are gentle enough for older toddlers.

7. Toohey Forest, Nathan and Mount Gravatt Outlook Reserve, Mt Gravatt
Together, Toohey Forest and Mount Gravatt Outlook Reserve on Brisbane's southside are a bushwalker's delight, boasting an extensive network of 30 paved and unpaved walking tracks, which have just got even better thanks to our recent upgrades. Spanning 260 hectares and just 10 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, there's a walk for everyone with the longest track being 3.5 kilometres long and the shortest being just 250 metres. The recently refurbished summit at Mount Gravatt Outlook Reserve features a garden bed at the centre, and a playground, a picnic area and a cafe, along with views of Brisbane, Moreton Bay and across to the Glass House Mountains and Mount Tamborine.
Location: Mount Gravatt Outlook Reserve - Mount Gravatt Outlook Drive, Mount Gravatt; Toohey Forest - Toohey Road, Nathan
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. A dog off-leash area is available at Salisbury Recreation Reserve, corner of Evans Road and Wincott Street, Salisbury.

8. Wynnum Manly Foreshore, Wynnum
The 10-kilometre return trip along the Wynnum Manly Foreshore offers a breath of sea air and is one of Brisbane's most scenic bayside walking hotspots, showcasing the yachts of Manly Marina, a water park, and plenty of grassy picnic spots and playgrounds for pit stops along the way. Shake things up with some added adventure and start the walk at Elanora Park and wander through the 800 metres of wilderness that is the Wynnum Mangrove Walk, which offers a vastly different experience depending on the tides. Then pick up the path along the seafront, crossing Fox Bridge to reach Oyster Point where the foreshore begins.
Location: Wynnum Esplanade, Wynnum
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. There are dog off-leash areas available at Elanora Park and Manly Foreshore.
Wynnum Mangrove Walk, Wynnum
9. Stephens Mountain, Greenslopes
It's called Greenslopes for a reason, so southside adventurers rejoice – there's a new lookout and bushwalking track on Stephens Mountain, offering spectacular views over Mt Coot-tha and Brisbane's west. We've also recently upgraded the walking tracks, installed new safety fencing, and improved entry and exit points to the reserve to make your weekend hiking expeditions even easier!
Location: 114 Nicholson Street, Greenslopes
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash.
Pram and scooter friendly: No, but the tracks are gentle enough for school-aged children.
10. Brisbane River
There's always a good reason to go for a riverside walk. Head down to Waterfront Park at Newstead and follow the Riverwalk signs toward the Teneriffe ferry terminal. Breathe in Brisbane's trademark scenery from this spectacular boardwalk right on the water's edge – with all the intrigue of what lays around the next bend, you will forget that you're even exercising. Make a stop at Gasworks, and continue to Brisbane Powerhouse and New Farm Park.
Location: Newstead to Teneriffe and New Farm
Dog friendly: Yes, but keep your dog on a leash. There is a dog off-leash area at Powerhouse Park.
11. City parklands, Brisbane City
Get lost in a labyrinth of pathways laced with spectacular gardens right at the heart of our city. Want to get a taste of Brisbane's most popular entertainment precinct while walking? The South Bank Parklands Promenade begins at the Cultural Forecourt and finishes at River Quay, but you have the option of going the full four kilometres to Kangaroo Point. South Bank also provides 17 hectares of lush parklands to wander through, with world-class eateries and stunning river views. Roma Street Parkland offers a distinctly different experience, with designer gardens and sprawling lawns that wind around 16 hectares of stunning parklands for the perfect sunshine weather.

I love your videos. I just wanted to share some info. Valerian is great but for some it can have the reverse effect. So if someone has never tried it before they might want to try it separately. Thyme & sage are also good herbs for respiratory issues. Herbalist Rosalee de la Foret had good information on herbs for specific types of coughs (wet vs. dry). Just wanted to share.

Few problems on Fourth
By: TODD GUILD - Updated: 1 week ago
Police report 'No significant incidents'
SANTA CRUZ COUNTY — According to Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Sgt. Dee Baldwin, more than 70 deputies patrolled the unincorporated parts of the county, confiscating 250 pounds of illegal fireworks throughout the night.
Between 6 a.m. July 4 and 6 a.m. on the 5th, deputies responded to 187 calls for service, 67 of which were fireworks-related.
They made 10 arrests for drugs, alcohol and assault, and wrote 16 citations for fireworks, drugs and alcohol.
A total of 35 people were booked into Santa Cruz County Jail, while 13 went to the Janus Sobering Center, Baldwin said.
In Watsonville, police officers wrote 20 violations, each of which came with a $1,000 fine.
Several young people were found to be in violation, which carried fines for both being a minor in possession of fireworks and illegal fireworks possession charges.
"We had calls coming in throughout the night," Watsonville Police Department spokeswoman Michelle Pulido said.
Santa Cruz Police kept 100 percent of its staff for the Fourth of July enforcement, but saw a relatively quiet evening, SCPD spokeswoman Joyce Blaschke said.
"Overall, there were no significant incidents to report," she said.
Police in that city responded to 418 calls for service between the hours of midnight July 4 and 3 a.m. July 5. Out of those, 93 were fireworks related.
SCPD reported one felony arrest, three misdemeanor arrest for being drunk in public, 24 infractions for people who had open containers of alcohol and eight triple-fine citations for alcohol and fireworks violations, Blaschke said.

UV Ceti is a red dwarf star and one of the ultimate examples of a flare star, the sun can brighten 70 times in a matter of seconds. The super flares have sterilized life, especially planet c orbiting right in the middle of the habitable zone. Enclosed cities are built into the mountains where colonists can escape, deep into the rock, the increased radiation during a flare. Numerous companies built scientific labs within the cities, where strange experiments were conducted far away from watching eyes. During its heyday the planet's population was much larger than today, yet still a million people live on the planet supported mostly by the labs that continue in operation.
UV Ceti C is a world orbiting within the dim stars narrow habitable zone, the planet is tidally locked meaning the same side always faces the sun. The thick atmosphere spreads heat around the surface keeping the permanent night side from freezing. Despite being the perfect temperature for life, the surface has been sterilized by the sun's super flares, colonists live in enclosed cities built into the mountains where they can escape the flares under layers of rock.
A frozen, cold world lacking any notable atmosphere. Orbiting well within Mercury's orbit the surface is permanently frozen due to the dimness of the parent red dwarf star. Occasionally the surface heats up during a flare, but without an atmosphere to hold in the heat it cools instantly.
A hydrogen helium gas giant orbiting the red dwarf star. The planet glows an orange pick color in the dim light of its sun.

Dyplom magistra inżyniera otrzymał w roku 1969 po ukończeniu studiów na Wydziale Chemicznym PŁ. Odbył roczne asystenckie studia przygotowawcze w Katedrze Chemii Fizycznej Wydziału Chemicznego, a następnie dwa lata pracował w Wolskich Zakładach Przemysłu Barwników w Woli Krzysztoporskiej. W roku 1972 roku podjął pracę w Międzyresortowym Instytucie Techniki Radiacyjnej PŁ (w Zespole Chemii Radiacyjnej Polimerów) i kontynuuje ją do chwili obecnej. Od 1986 roku kierował pracami Grupy Badawczej Biomateriałów, po habilitacji i uzyskaniu tytułu profesora objął kierownictwo Zespołu Chemii Radiacyjnej Stosowanej MITR PŁ.

Stopień naukowy doktora uzyskał w 1981 roku, a doktora habilitowanego w 1992 roku. W 1997 roku uzyskał tytuł naukowy profesora nauk chemicznych. Odbył długoterminowe staże naukowe w Hahn-Meitner Institut (Berlin Zachodni) oraz w Takasaki Radiation Chemistry Research Establishment (Japonia). Od roku 2002 pracuje w PŁ na stanowisku profesora zwyczajnego.

Jego zainteresowania naukowe koncentrują się wokół zagadnień chemii radiacyjnej polimerów, a zwłaszcza wykorzystania promieniowania jonizującego do wytwarzania i modyfikacji biomateriałów. Posiada w swoim dorobku ponad 150 publikacji w czasopismach o cyrkulacji międzynarodowej (indeks Hirscha 35), kilkaset doniesień konferencyjnych, ponad 30 udzielonych patentów polskich i zagranicznych oraz jest głównym twórcą, wdrożonej w Polsce i innych krajach, radiacyjnej technologii wytwarzania opatrunków hydrożelowych (tzw. metoda Rosiaka). Do osiągnięć aplikacyjnych należą opracowane technologie wytwarzania:  hydrożelowych systemów do indukcji porodów, hybrydowej trzustki, chitozanowego preparatu jako dodatku diety, dozymetru żelowego do radioterapii, hydrożelowych substytutów dysków kręgowych, powierzchni termoczułych. Do istotnych osiągnięć naukowych należy ponadto opracowanie uniwersalnego równania sieciowania polimerów (wspólnie z prof. A. Charlesby) oraz radiacyjnej metody wytwarzania nanożeli polimerowych (Łódzka Eureka 2006). Jego publikacje cytowane były w literaturze światowej dotychczas ponad 4100 razy, a do najczęściej cytowanych należą prace poświęcone radiacyjnej syntezie hydrożeli oraz kinetyce reakcji rodnikowych.

Wypromował 12 doktorów, z których pierwszy (Piotr Ulański - obecnie  profesor zwyczajny) uzyskał nagrodę Prezesa Rady Ministrów RP za najlepszą pracę doktorską w chemii w roku 1996; sześciu z nich zatrudnionych jest na stanowiskach profesorów. Kierował 25 wielomiesięcznymi stażami naukowymi odbywanymi w jego Zespole Badawczym przez stypendystów MAEA i UE.

I specialise in the fitting of ski boots and have been working in cooperation with Stöckli for about nine years. For Stöckli's athletes I am in charge of the entire servicing of their ski boots. I've known Vicky for a long time and have always found her right from the start to be extremely nice, open, helpful and accommodating. And that is what still makes her stand out from the rest.
When it comes to skiing, however, she is also able to clearly state what direction she is moving in. In this case she is equally as professional as she is nice and down to earth. I really appreciate that. She lets you know if she does not like something – but also if something is good and she likes it. When it comes to praise she does not hold back!
The 2015 World Championships in Vail / Beaver Creek were really something special for me. After the first run in the giant slalom she was lagging way behind the others, but she was so happy because she felt that her set-up was right again. She had not realised at that moment just how far behind she was, because it was more important to her that everything was right with her set-up. And then she won silver in the final!
The battle for the small crystal ball in the Giant Slalom at the World Cup competition of 2015/16 was also pretty impressive. This was where Vicky showed how human and fair she has remained after many years in the professional sports arena. She just missed her third overall victory after 2011 and 2012 by a mere two points. Of course she was disappointed with coming second behind Eva-Maria Brem, but then moved on very quickly, looking to the future, and clearly said that Eva really deserved it.

Landis Gift
Established on October 19, 2018, the Landis Center for Community Engagement is built on the foundation of the former Landis Community Outreach Center. The Community Outreach Center was named on June 5, 1999 in recognition of a generous gift by John W. Landis, class of 1939 and his wife, Muriel T.S. Landis. Historically, the Landis Community Outreach Center focused on developing student leadership through on-going service initiatives and building sustainable partnerships with community organizations. The Center for Community Engagement was established in the Fall of 2013 based on the recommendations presented in a 2008-2009 Center for Community-Based Learning, Research and Service proposal. The Center provided formal administrative support and resources to faculty whose courses include a community-based learning and research component, and promoted community engagement as a legitimate pedagogical practice. Expanding community engagement to include community-based learning and research also enhanced and strengthened student learning by providing opportunities for practical application of theoretical concepts outside the classroom. Consistent with our College mission, Lafayette's Landis Center for Community Engagement coordinates curricular, co-curricular, and extra-curricular opportunities for students. Our commitment to these opportunities is reflected in the development of our three areas of focus: Community-Based Learning and Research, Leadership and Service, and Volunteerism.
The Landis Center for Community Engagement was named for John W. Landis '39 in June 1999.
Volunteers logged 13,922 hours in 2016-2017 through the Landis Leadership and Service Program.
The Holiday Helpers program collects more than 300 gifts valued at $15,600 annually.
More than 60 America Reads tutors work with children in elementary schools to improve reading and math skills.


1. Create a Reporter with the dependencies it needs to do its job.
In a functional language like F# we can do the same thing without the overhead of having to declare classes and interfaces. We can also do the same thing in C#, but it requires some jiggery-pokery, so I'm going to show you it in F#.
Note: three lines of code verses nine for the C# version.
Here we're defining a reporter function that takes three arguments, a reportRepository, a reportSender and an id. Internally it does exactly the same as our Reporter class above. In our object oriented version, we explicitly defined the dependencies as constructor arguments so that we can supply dependencies independently of executing the SendReportById method. But because functional languages support currying, we don't need those constructor arguments, we can partially apply the function instead. We can call reporter with just the first two arguments to create a curried version of reporter that already has the reportRepository and reportSender dependencies satisfied. It's then just waits for the last argument, the 'id' value, in order to execute.
We can see that it takes two functions and a value and returns a value. We can also see that F# functions are curried by default. We can pass just the first two arguments ('a –> b') –> ('b –> 'c) and the return value will be 'a –> 'c.
One could argue that the whole paraphernalia of object oriented programming is simply to make up for the lack of currying.
Thanks - I'm intrigued by the notion of using currying for DI, and more importantly I'm thrilled to add the phrase "jiggery pokery" to my arsenal.
Thanks Scott, pleased to be of service.
You're confusing the term currying with partial application. Your point is spot-on though.
Thanks Tony, you are right of course. Currying is when you take a multi function argument f (x,y) -> z and turn it into a function that returns an argument f x -> (y -> z). In F# functions are curried by default. What I'm doing here is partial application.
Fogive my novice mistake, I'm still new to this FP lark.
Thanks for pointing me to your blog post. Most interesting.
I would say it is more like a closure. You create an environment in which things just are global, but you have control over how you setup that environment and can make multiple of those (running together in any configuration you like).
well ... hope this sketches the idea. Preferably you start your whole webserver from withing the environment.
This is less threatening to the OO programmer as it means you can be a little less radical in replacing beloved (and potentially valuable) named types with function types. It also lets you introduce them to the beauty of F# class types. e.g.
It is a separate step to replace named interface types with one "invoke" member by function types.
FP is a very different way of thinking about programming. I'm an OO programmer. I'm curious about how FP works. This post is really just an expression of that curiosity. I understand OO programming and F# can do OO programming - well that's great, but what I really want to know is what all the FP fuss is about. So this post is more about FP than F#. I could just as well have used Java and Haskell to demonstrate the same thing.
Sure it's nice to show that F# is also a great OO language. But I wanted to show one way an OO programmer, like myself, can think of currying and partial-application as equivalent to a well known OO technique.
let myReportSender = printfn "report = %A"
"Functional Dependency Injection == Passing a function to a higher-order function"
The act of dependency injection is passing a function to a higher order function.
If the higher order function takes only one argument, no currying takes place and partial application isn't possible.
When you do use partial application wrt dependency injection, it's only to create a function that bakes in one or more specific injected dependencies, as a convenience.
That's the way I'm seeing it.

Koch: Jews do not need to believe in Christ to be saved
At a three day seminar promoted by the Jewish-led Council of Centers of Jewish-Christian Relations that took place at Seton Hall University in late October - early November 2011, Cardinal Kurt Koch, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, gave a two-hour talk. In it, among other things, he stressed these two points:
1. Jews are participants in God's salvation even though they do not believe in Jesus Christ as the Messiah of Israel and Son of God;
2. The Catholic Church rejects missionary work directed at Jews.
It is another bold denial of the Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ made by an official representative of the Pope. In other words, it is another confirmation of the general apostasy of the post-conciliar Vatican with its policy of ecumenism and inter-religious dialogue.
Above, Koch at a luncheon in the Jewish Theological Seminary on October 31, 2011, to inaugurate the Milstein Center for inter-religious dialogue. He is receiving from rabbi Arnold Eisen an 18th-century facsimile of a document from the Jewish community of Rome to Pope Benedict XIV. Below first row, at the same event Koch listens attentively to another rabbi, second row, delivering his talk also on October 31, 2011.

"We will use this time to our advantage": How the USMNT staff is operating in the COVID-19 Era
USMNT Head Coach Gregg Berhalter Discusses Managing his Group of Players During Global Health Pandemic
German Sferra April 10 2020
The time will come when the USMNT gets back on the field. There are more pressing issues these days as the world deals with the tragic COVID-19 pandemic.
A month ago, leagues in nearly every sport across the globe began indefinitely suspending their respective seasons, heeding the advice of world health experts that social distancing was imperative in slowing down the spread of the deadly coronavirus.
Seemingly daily since, more high profile sporting events originally scheduled for the coming months have also either been canceled, postponed or re-scheduled, including the 2020 Olympic Games, EURO 2020 and the Copa America.
"First and foremost, it's essential," USMNT head coach Gregg Berhalter told ussoccer.com of sports coming to a halt. "It's essential to stopping the spread is for everyone to be at home. It's a very important step to take. You see that some of the precautions that have been taken are having an effect. Sport is part of our everyday life; sport gives us a sense of community. But in this time, we all need to be following instructions and helping as much as we can to stop the spread of this virus."
Berhalter led the MNT to an 11-5-2 record in his first year at the helm in 2019, which included a runner-up finish in the Concacaf Gold Cup and ending the year atop Group A of the Concacaf Nations League to advance to what was expected to be a semifinal meeting with Honduras on June 4th in Houston. The third place match or final – against either Mexico or Costa Rica – was set for four days later in Dallas.
However, Concacaf announced that, in consultation with FIFA regarding the international calendar, the Nations League Finals have also been suspended.
"It's a shame that we're not going to be able to play and compete for a trophy in the June window, but the most important thing right now is that people are staying home and staying safe," Berhalter said.
When the timing is right, the priority is to get the leagues back up and running and national teams will come next. We have a close-knit group that continues to grow, and we are using this time to maintain our connections. When we do get back together we'll regroup and be as focused as ever.
Gregg Berhalter
Berhalter and the MNT have encountered a handful of scheduling challenges this year. After the annual January Camp was shifted at the last minute from Qatar to Florida, the team was also forced to cancel its friendlies against the Netherlands on March 26 in Eindhoven and Wales on March 30 in Cardiff due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Those would have been the first matches played outside the Concacaf region under Berhalter.
"As coaches, we have to put in practice what we teach to the players every single day, and that's focusing on what we can control," Berhalter said. "This is something we can't control. What we can control is that we're in our houses, that we're staying safe, that we're stopping the spread of this disease, and that we're continuing to work and trying to get better. It's a good lesson for all of us. It gives us an opportunity to be grateful for what we have and look forward to the day when we can be back on the field again, but remaining productive during this time."
With no games or opponents to scouts, Berhalter and the USMNT coaching staff are looking to use the extra time for self-improvement, and helping the players do the same.
"We're trying to still be productive and using the time to our advantage," he said. "I think there's a couple of ways to look at this: you can look at this as a major disadvantage or you can look at it as an opportunity to get better, an opportunity to improve, whether that's players picking something they want to improve and working on it, or whether it's coaches being able to analyze things in more depth than you'd normally get when you're in your weekly schedule."
When USMNT pool players are in season, the staff conducts weekly calls with each one to analyze or discuss their most recent games. While those conversations are on hold, keeping in touch remains important.
"We still want to foster that sense of a group and sense of unity, so we're thinking of other ways, other communication channels were we can all get together and still be able to talk to each other and support each other," Berhalter said, noting that he's been in contact with 45-50 players, including a number of players who were part of the U-23 USMNT build up to the recently cancelled Olympic Qualifying tournament.
Communication between staff and players is juggled between traditional phone calls, texting and video conferencing. Chats vary in size, as well as topics, especially with a number of players away from their families and loved ones.
"It's a stressful time for everyone, so we're emphasizing the use of Headspace to have them use relaxing techniques," Berhalter noted. "We're also working with our high-performance development and leadership coach on seizing the moment and focusing on what you can get better on."
The staff has worked hard to develop relationships with clubs both domestic and international, and maintaining communication is as important as ever.
"Our staff has been involved in league wide medical and high-performance calls and have been able to supplement some of the workouts that our players abroad have been doing," Berhalter said. "So we're able to work together with the clubs, and that's positive."
The coaching staff has begun introducing some of the younger players to the video libraries focused on positional profiles to help each player understand what's expected in the USMNT system. Those are shared through video conference calls.
The staff has also continued its own weekly scouting meetings, also through video conferencing. The primary focus of these meetings has been to conduct deeper reviews on how each USMNT-eligible player performed in previous matches.
"Scouting from a standpoint of keeping current on how the players are performing is completely done, obviously, with no games being played at the moment," Berhalter said. "But it's an opportunity for us to continue to evaluate our own game models; we can watch past footage of players. It's been a very effective tool that we have, of having these Tuesday morning meetings and recapping all of our players performances and being able to talk about it in depth, because it has helped us identify players. For us, it's a great tool to be able to watch all the video and be able to discuss and evaluate the performance of the players."
No one knows when sports – or anything, for that matter – will be cleared to return, and that includes national team matches. As the last fixtures before the June FIFA World Rankings were to be finalized, that month's international window which featured the Concacaf Nations League final four was set to be the final determinant for the six-team final round of qualifying for the 2022 FIFA World Cup scheduled to begin in September.
While there's uncertainty around the next time the USMNT will physically gather together, Berhalter says his group will weather it.
"Whatever the concern it's, is going to be the same for all the teams, all the countries - and we think that can be an advantage for us, because mentally we'll be in a place where we can deal with it. The players are resilient. The players understand what's at stake. The players are motivated to qualify and to make our country proud. So whatever comes, we'll be able to deal with it."

Goodbye, Prison Mike
I know that M. Carter @ the Movies is, well, a movie blog, but sometimes non-movie issues crop up that must be addressed. Today, Thursday, April 28, is one of those times. Because today, Thursday, April 28, is none other than a terrible, no-good, very-bad, very-sad day. It marks Steve Carell's exit from "The Office."
In the grand scheme of things, this isn't a big deal. Bosses come and go. But any readers who have invested their whole hearts into a TV show might understand my position. My romance with "The Office" — which has lasted six years — is the longest and most fulfilling relationship I've ever had. (Yes, I'm thoroughly aware how pathetic that is.) There have been happy times (Michael's romance with Holly; Pam and Jim's wedding; the Superbowl episode heard 'round the world) and times where I wanted to throw up my hands, yell in frustration and walk away (most of season 4 and numerous parts of season 6). I've been wildly in love with Michael Scott (sometimes it was more "in like); more often than not I've been frustrated with him, and angry at his beef-headed choices and immaturity, and then stunned at his compassion, his vulnerability and his supreme business acumen/negotiating skills. Steve Carell took what could have been a minor character, a complete dolt with no social skills and less maturity, and turned him into the kind of flawed Everyboss we could root for. What he's done with the role is beyond words. It's incalculacable.
But now might be the time for a quiet but happy exit. Michael Scott has gone as far as he can at Dunder-Mifflin, and now he will move on into a new life — a life with his goofy soulmate, Holly, a life that signals now he can see beyond his own needs and make compromises, sacrifices. Though I suspect he'll never lose touch with his inner child (he is, after all, "LittleKidLover"), Michael has become an adult.
But in my heart, he'll always be Prison Mike. And I'll miss him sorely.

Perfect way to send Carell out. I loved that episode.
mcarteratthemovies, on May 3, 2011 at 9:53 am said:
Agreed. I did nothing but cry for the last 5 minutes. And for 5 more minutes after that.
Andrew, on May 3, 2011 at 5:26 pm said:
Honestly, I'm happy. If nothing else the absence of Mike should be refreshing enough to make the show palatable again, at least temporarily, which it desperately needs. The humor has largely become stagnant, with only a few true laughs sprinkled here and there throughout the last few seasons, and characters previously endearing to us have now just become grating. Honestly, I have a hard time connecting with the show just for a lack of a bridge– Andy's the closest we have for an audience surrogate of sorts that the show has at this point since Jim and Pam have become intolerable grotesques and everyone else is, well, the same as they've ever been, and we don't spend enough time with most of them.
So, feeling distant from the show, this is good news to me. And I'm glad to see Carell move on to do other things with his time.
I also found the finale frustrating. Not because it missed any beats, because I'd say the episode nailed the tone and emotion sought by the writing staff, but because from start to finish it contained more genuine emotion and laughter than almost the entire preceding season combined (pre-Farrell, though). I appreciate that the cast and crew gave us magic for Carell's swan song, but where was this excellence for the rest of the season? And the season before it? I feel a bit cheated even if the finale delivered, I guess is what I'm saying.
In truth? While I can't say I'm happy, exactly, to see Carell go, I'd agree that the show needs a boost. And Scott's character has gone about as far as he can. He's not the same boss he was in season 1.
I've also grown very tired of Jim and Pam, who essentially have become what Bridget Jones would call "Smug Marrieds." Andy and Erin could fill that whole somewhat, but they don't have the same chemistry.
Eric, on May 8, 2011 at 2:54 pm said:
I just got caught up on the latest season of The Office, and I watched Michael's farewell a couple days ago. I thought it was very well done, and an excellent send-off to one of the most likable characters in recent TV history.
I hope they decide to go in a different direction other than Will Ferrell, though. I like him, but he just isn't a good fit for the show.
mcarteratthemovies, on May 9, 2011 at 12:48 pm said:
Season 6 was not my favorite — I'd say that and season 4 — excepting a few episodes, like "Dinner Party" — were my least favorite. I enjoyed Carell's last episode quite a bit and thought the writers did a superb job giving fans different versions of Michael. It's pure curiosity that's keeping me watching now. Unless the new boss is someone truly awesome like Rhys Darby or Ricky Gervais, etc., I think this is the end of the show for me.

Cichocki has produced a number of experimental exhibitions in the form of books, as well as residency programs and staged lectures. Cichocki is an author and co-author of several books on art e.g. A Cookbook for Political Imagination (2011), The Future of Art Criticism as Pure Fiction (2011), Earth Works! (2013), and a popular children's book on contemporary art S.Z.T.U.K.A (A.R.T.).


As Charles Krauthammer suggested, he's going to try his hand at channeling King Canute today when he shows up in Louisiana.
Yesterday the President finally, after nearly a year, held what is still nostalgically referred to as a "press conference" to explain that he's in total charge of the oil spill in the Gulf, and takes full responsibility. Except that he also took the opportunity to blame Bush (twice) and BP (naturally) and claim that he didn't know if the Director of the Mine Management Service was fired or resigned because he was "busy with a lot of other stuff" when she might have submitted her letter of resignation – if she hadn't been fired. This is a leader who not only doesn't know how to lead, he doesn't even know how to pretend to take responsibility like a leader.
And seriously, who brings teleprompters to a presser? For what? To keep track of the key talking points for response to the pre-approved and/or anticipated questions?
I'm not sure it worked. When not fully scripted, this man has a brain stutter – like a 6 second buffer between his brain and his mouth that usually ruins whatever thought was there to begin with. Maybe that's why he can't answer the simplest of questions in anything under 5 minutes.
In addition to stopping the tides, Obama also announced he's put a hold on all future drilling in the Gulf – explaining that it's just too darn dangerous to have to go down so deep to drill for oil. Of course he can only stop the drilling of American companies there, who are already prohibited from drilling shallow water wells. So the only people who will be drilling in the Gulf – shallow or deep – will be China, Mexico, Canada, Britain, Indonesia, Venezuela, and 4 others. He explained that it's precisely because of this deep water danger that we never heard him saying "drill, baby, drill." As Mark Levin asked, what is the alternative? Freeze, baby, freeze?
And not to split hairs, but how deep below the surface would we have to go to drill in ANWAR? Oh, that's right, that's surface drilling. But we don't like that either.
We are told by both parties that we must wean ourselves of our dependence on foreign oil. To do that we need to allow drilling in this country. We need to build Nuclear electricity plants. But government overreaction to Three Mile Island resulted in regulation that now requires a 10-15 year lead time for any new facility. Needless to say, it's neigh on impossible to cost-justify any investment with that kind of lead time. Now we are on course to do the same with the oil industry. Why, with government, is the answer either zero or a trillion?
We can continue to pretend that this country doesn't need new traditional energy sources, that "green" alternative energy is the answer. But we do so at great peril to ourselves, because it's simply a sham. A claim about as supportable as global warming turned out to be. But that will not stop this administration from tying our hands and leaving us crucially vulnerable to future energy shortages.
Obama was elected with money from people who are invested in and betting on carbon credits and wind turbines; so look for a push back against everything else. And there's our future folks: wind, solar and mice on treadmills. All of which can make approximately the same proportionate contribution to America's total energy needs.

In Sarno, the last event of the WSK Super Master Series confirmed the high level of performance of several drivers of the Birel ART Racing Team.
Kremers' 4th place overall in the KZ2 series allowed him to calmly contemplate the rest of the international season, while the potential was there in OK with Coluccio and in OK-Junior with Camara.
"Everything is gradually falling into place in the team and our goals of victory remain more relevant than ever," said Ronni Sala, President of Birel ART Group. "The work we have done since the beginning of the season has not yet fully borne fruit, but the foundation of our programme is now strong. Competition is very tight in every category and success does not always reward our drivers' efforts, but we are confident for the important races ahead."
Contested in the sun with rising temperatures, the Sarno meeting was marked by races of a rare intensity that did not allow everyone to take the finish. Facing constant battles from the beginning to the end of a meeting requires drivers and technicians to surpass themselves and strengthen their motivation in the face of adversity. This is a crucial step in building a successful season for a top team.
The official Birel ART testing in KZ2 has confirmed the potential of the great Lissone brand. Although they had to retire in the Final fights, Alex Irlando and Alexander Dahlberg had time to convince. Irlando finished 6th in the Prefinal and finished the series in the top 10, while Dahlberg was more motivated than ever.
Leonardo Marseglia proved his determination with a very encouraging 12-place finish in the Final. Marijn Kremers was still fighting once again among the best. Back in 6th place in the Final, he finished 4th in the championship.
For a long time Luigi Coluccio was at the front of the OK category with interesting consistency. 5th in Qualifying and 4th after the heats, he began by taking control of his Prefinal before being forced to drop back. A retirement on the second lap of the Final deprived him of a result consistent with his competitiveness and he had to settle for 11th position overall.
For his first experience in OK, Thomas Nepveu had the joy of qualifying for the Final and returning to 21st despite a penalty.
Despite many setbacks, Rafael Camara finished the WSK Super Master Series in the top 10 of the OK-Junior category, while Cristian Bertucca was a serious prospect in the 12-14 age group race after race.
Selected and supported by the Richard Mille Young Talent Academy, Maya Weug confirmed her progress in OK.
Delayed by a retirement in a heat, she ensured a gain of eight places in the Final to reach 11th position. It was more complicated this time in OK-Junior for Julia Ayoub is learning about top-level European competition with determination.
After the strong lessons of this meeting, the Birel ART team remained in Sarno to participate at the opening of the WSK Euro Series at the Neapolitan circuit next weekend.

This is the first solo release by Monoloc (Frankfurt DJ and producer Sascha Borchardt), since his 2016 album, The Untold Way.
Berlin's Dystopian label is known for work by Rødhåd , Vril and other purveyors of deep, thoughtful and atmospheric techno and this release continues that tradition. Despite the label name, there are darker labels offering darker music. In fact, their releases tend to be finely balanced between light and shade.
Monoloc steers his own path, flirting with but not aligning with some of the main trends in contemporary techno. When in a darker mode, there's a lightness of touch and precision that differentiates it from some contemporary reverb-drenched doom-laden techno. Yet when in a lighter mode, you're aware that things could change at any moment. His music is fluid and never rests in one mode for too long. While comprising only four tracks – two of them instant classics – this latest release is more memorable than many full-length albums.
The opening 'Inner Reduction' is a deceptively ethereal scene-setter. It's drenched in atmosphere and has a slight edge to it that gradually becomes more present as the wistful the drones come in. It ends in a gorgeous, slow coda that doesn't quite prepare you for the action to follow.
The title track initially retains an ethereal atmosphere but soon reinforces it with faster beats and a rolling bass line. In their wake a more sinister and highly memorable sequence then infiltrates, shifting the mood and intensifying it to a cinematic scale.
'Mufon' builds on this momentum and depicts an epic sonic landscape. It starts uneasily, and is then scoured by massed ranks of darkly dynamic sounds joined by choral elements. It's a highly original and impressive track of great power and vision.
After this, 'From The Method' gently guides the listener back towards the light. While there's a melancholic, bittersweet undercurrent, there's also a certain optimism and the sense of a storm having passed. It's a slower track that provides a swirling, graceful sense of closure to a brief but very strong release. This is distinctive, imaginative, widescreen techno that leaves a lasting impression.

Three Weird Quantum Phenomena You Didn't Realize You Were Using
Chad Orzel
I write about physics, science, academia, and pop culture.
Dec 11, 2018, 09:57am EST |
Over the last week, leading up to today's release of the US edition of Breakfast with Einstein, I've highlighted some everyday phenomena that depend on quantum physics. Today, I want to flip things around and talk about some quantum phenomena first, and how you can find them illustrated in surprisingly ordinary activities.
Abstract blur color on wireframe network background.
Quantum Tunneling: One of the most surprising predictions of quantum physics, in terms of our normal intuition for how physics should work, is the phenomenon known as "tunneling," in which quantum particles have some probability of turning up in places that, classically speaking, they just don't have enough energy to reach. We talk about this in terms of passing an energy barrier: a particle that's in motion with some total energy (kinetic plus potential) comes to the edge of a region where interactions with other stuff would create a potential energy greater than the total energy it has available. This ought to make it turn around, in the same way that a ball thrown into the air can't rise above the height where its potential energy due to the Earth's gravity equals the kinetic energy with which it was thrown. But if there's another free region on the far side of the barrier, quantum mechanics tells us it has some (tiny) probability of turning up there, as if it passed through some sort of magic tunnel from one side to the other.
This is bizarre to contemplate with everyday objects-- a dog isn't going to quantum tunnel through a fence into the neighbors' yard (though a bad dog might classically tunnel through the dirt under the fence...). This has a surprisingly direct application to an everyday technology, though, in the form of a smoke detector. One of the two main processes used to make modern smoke detectors uses a small amount of radioactive americium to ionize air molecules, producing a steady flow of current between two plates inside the detector. When heavy smoke particles enter the region between the plates, they also get ionized by the radiation, but are too heavy to be deflected into the plates, and the current flow drops, triggering the alarm.
The particular decay channel than makes americium useful for this application is an "alpha decay," in which a very heavy nucleus decays by spitting out a helium nucleus: two protons and two neutrons tightly bound together. This process initially seemed mysterious, because the energy of the emitted alpha particle is much lower than the energy needed to shoot an alpha particle into the nucleus. The colorful Russian theorist George Gamow realized, though, that this is exactly what you expect from quantum tunneling: you can think of the nucleus as a collection of alpha particles held inside the nucleus without enough energy to escape, but thanks to quantum tunneling they have a tiny chance of escape.
The chance is really tiny-- the half-life of americium is several hundred years, and an estimate of how many times an alpha inside the nucleus would hit the barrier in an attempt to leave is something like 1020per second. The process works, though, and thus quantum physics plays an essential role in protecting your stuff.
Yellow lens flare light
Photons: The particle nature of light-- which was conclusively shown to have wave nature in the early 1800s-- was one of the most controversial features of quantum physics once it was introduced by Max Planck and Albert Einstein. Even Niels Bohr, whose quantum model of the atom was a revolutionary break with classical physics, was reluctant to accept "light quanta," and tried to make a purely wave-like model of light work well into the quantum era. These days, though, the quantum picture of light as a particle is not only accepted, it's essential for the technology that lets you look at cat photos on the Internet.
The particle nature of light is essential to the photo-taking process in a manner similar to the photoelectric effect, the phenomenon Einstein introduced the particle model to solve. The energy contained in a single particle of light is used to boost an electron out of an energy state where it's bound in place inside the detector chip to one where it's free to move. These free electrons are collected inside the sensor, and the number of electrons in each pixel provides a measure of the amount of light hitting that pixel. Taking cat photos is thus a quantum process.

The sending of those pictures also relies on the particle nature of light, because modern telecommunications networks rely on light pulses sent through optical fibers. These pulses are produced by lasers whose operation would be impossible without the quantum interactions between light and matter. The word "laser" started its life as an acronym for "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation," and "stimulated emission" is a process first described by Einstein where a single photon of light encountering an atom in a high-energy state will stimulate that atom to emit a second, identical photon. Repeat that process enough times, and you get a laser: huge numbers of photons (a cheap laser pointer probably sends out something like 1015 photons per second) of the same wavelength all moving in the same direction. That's exactly what you need to couple light into an optical fiber and send digital signals all over the world.
Any time you open a browser and check out the latest pet photos from your favorite morale-boosting sites (or read a blog post about physics), then, you're making use of the quantum nature of light twice over.

The Uncertainty Principle: In the post about electron spin, I mentioned that the continued existence of solid objects is ultimately due to the Pauli exclusion principles, the weird phenomenon associated with spin that prevents multiple electrons from occupying the same state. This forces them into slightly higher energy states than they would otherwise occupy, and prevents solid objects from imploding to infinitesimal points with infinite negative potential energy.
The spin effect is what puts the energy over the top, as it were, but the bulk of the work is done by a simpler quantum effect, one of the few to achieve fame outside of physics: the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. This says that there's a limit on how well we can known complementary pairs of properties of quantum objects, most famously the position and momentum. If we decrease the uncertainty in the position of some particle, we must have a corresponding increase in the uncertainty of its momentum, and vice versa.
This trade-off means that confining some particle to a small region of space (thus making its position uncertainty small) will necessarily increase its energy (because the momentum uncertainty goes up, and on average it will have a higher momentum and thus higher energy). That energy-boosting uncertainty relationship accounts for most (but not all!) of the energy needed to keep solid objects from imploding.
Author copies of the US edition of BREAKFAST WITH EINSTEIN.
These ideas-- tunneling, photons, and quantum uncertainty-- are signature "weird" phenomena from quantum physics, and loom large among the points that people new to the theory struggle to understand, because they seem remote from the everyday world. As it turns out, though, they're all essential for processes that are a part of ordinary life, showing that quantum physics is all around you, if you know where to look.

I had previously published this article in our patient newsletter Aches & Joints.
If you are a runner, you probably worried about Plantar Fasciitis. Early in the summer when researching this article, I got a mild case of heel pain that left me distraught. My training for the Boston Half Marathon (Oct 7th 2007) was guarded and I am still tentative with my heel. But doing all the exercises linked at the end, I am good to go.
Heel pain with the first steps getting out of bed in the morning, or when standing from a seated position, are the most characteristic symptoms of plantar fasciitis (fashee-eye-tiss). Pain can also occur with prolonged standing and walking. The sharp pain is usually on the bottom inside part of the heel. While it most often occurs in only one foot, it can affect both feet.
The plantar fascia is a tough, fibrous tissue band running under the soles of your feet, and connects the heel bone (calcaneus) to the base of the toes. It also helps support the arch of the foot in its role as a shock absorber. An injury or continuous irritation of this tissue causes plantar fasciitis and the resulting heel pain.
Multiple factors likely cause plantar fasciitis. It tends to affect people between 40 and 70 years of age, more likely in women, people who are overweight, or have jobs that require a lot of walking or standing on hard surfaces. Runners may be at a higher risk. People with flat feet or high arches are also more prone to plantar fasciitis.
The following self care measures may help reduce symptoms.
Stop all impact sports and rest the foot.
Use shoes with better heel cushioning, or include a heel cup for pain relief.
Apply ice to the heel. Freeze a plastic bottle of water and roll your foot over it.
Limited use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (e.g. ibuprofen or naproxen) is helpful.
Different types of day or night wear splints keep your plantar fascia stretched, and relieve pain.
Day wear splints can be worn with regular shoes. They keep the heel stretched and provide pain relief throughout the day.
A night splint worn to bed keeps the plantar fascia stretched while sleeping and can prevent early morning heel pain.
In the vast majority, plantar fasciitis will resolve itself within three to six months, but in some patients it can take a year or more. When symptoms fail to improve after 4 to 6 weeks of home treatment, see your doctor or foot specialist.
If heel pain is accompanied by unusual symptoms such as back pain, burning in the foot, or recent trauma, see a specialist. In case of severe and persistent pain that has not responded to conservative treatments, your doctor may prescribe a removable walking cast. This will keep your foot immobile for a few weeks, to allow it to rest and heal. Other treatments include ultrasound therapy directed at the area of heel pain, or even cortisone injections.
Only a tiny percentage of people undergo surgery, which includes detaching the plantar fascia from the heel bone. "Surgery should be the last resort when all other treatments have failed, and the pain remains severe for over a year," insists Dr. Richard de Asla, Co-Director of the Foot and Ankle Service at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Instructor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.
"We rarely operate on this condition because in most patients the pain resolves on its own with time. Furthermore, the surgical success rate is only about 70% with the potential for other complications," reminds Dr. de Asla.
where can i get a day wear splints? please guide.
I am suffering with heal pain in right side leg. Even after consulting doctor ( TIRUPATHI – AP) twice got injection and taking medicines for last three months, not reduced my heal pain. After getting injection I get relief for one week and after that same pain continues. I am basically Mining Engineer,My job required walking and climbing hilly terrains.I am sort of doubt in operation and post operation fitness. Please suggest good medicines and physio therapy hints.
Stop the injections. Just follow the various stretching exercises provided here and win the related articles. Best is to keep your heel on a bag of frozen peas or other ice pack.
And stretch and use comfortable shoes.
Thanks for your response and advise.
I was going through similar kind of pain for almost 2 years don't multiple treatments but diet not cured .
Than I came across hijama therapy through one of my friend. Done this treatment only once and it was cured forever .
Please try this .it's a old therapy.
Thanks for your response and advise. Please let me know where I can get this treatment.
You can Google it for your area.treatment name is is Hijama.
Heel pain is the worst! It's one of those things that if your feet hurt, your whole body hurts! This is a really interesting treatment option. I love how many choices you have though when it comes to treating it.
I'm jyoti from odisha.l'm suffering Very worst pain in my heel till 1year.which specialist doctor good for the treatment?
Please try and find a good physiotherapist who can help you with the heel pain.
Also, please see the different stretches which are described here and in my links and if you follow these then those can help you as well.
I am on my feet for about 16 hours a day, at first I had no trouble doing it. As the years go on my feet seem to be less and less happy with me, regardless of the type of shoes I wear. I now know how important it is to take care of your feet. I never thought about stretches for your feet, I'll start there. Thanks for the share.
I am from bangalore, I got heel pain for both legs due to running on hard surfaces.which I was not facing earlier. I went to doctor , he prescribed me tendocare tablets, which doesn't give any result. he prescribed me wax Therapy and hot water Therapy. I took wax Therapy some what OK. I am feeling very uncomfortable without walking . I am using MCR cheppals at home and Silicon insole in shoes. please suggest me some good approach to recover my problem. kindly advise.
Heel pain can be very painful and not easy to treat quickly. I recommend you stay away from all exotic treatments, injections etc. You are doing the right thing – wear comfortable, cushiony shoes, and even chapels for inside the home. You need to follow all the different stretches that are listed on these pages. Do them early in the morning, so you are stretching the fascia. Start slow and try and massage the heel and under part of the foot. if you get a chance at work while you are sitting, place your foot on an ice pack for 20-30 minutes. Continue to stretch as possible during the day.
Ice at night, and when you go to bed, try and keep your foot straight up and done, and not flopping down (away from you). Easiest is to sleep with your feet straight agains the wall or backboard of your bed.
Thanks your prompt reply. I will follow your suggestions .
I am living in Singapore. I have PF from last 2 years. First my left leg started paining , after trying all treatment doctor suggest me for steroid injection. I thought I was totally cured from PF but my right feet started paining. Its now over year I am facing pain, so will take injection again. I want to ask you that is there any side effects of this injections. I take all care of feets, do yoga n stretching exercise daily, use dr.scholl chappals always, dont walk bare feet on floor.
I would recommend against injections, unless you are debilitated. In my articles there are a variety of stretching exercises, and you should be doing these every day, better at the start of the day. Just wear comfortable shoes (not necessarily scholls), and barefoot walking on soft surfaces at home is actually very good.
When you are sitting at a desk, it helps to place your feet on an icepack for 15 minutes; a frozen bottle of water can be used to roll your feet on it, while sitting, and gives immense relief.
Start every day with stretching and end it with icing!

"Despite the outraged cries of protesters that have dogged the project since its inception, Oscorp Industries is set to flip the switch on the construction of an experimental hydroelectric power plant that could reshape New York's power landscape.
In other Spider-Man news, the troubled musical "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" is set to close on Broadway on January 4th and sadly – it will be $60 million in the red according to a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/20/theater/spider-man-investors-shaken-by-projected-60-million-loss.html ">The New York Times.
Despite pulling in $203 million at the box-office since it began performances, the musical's $75 million budget and additional $1.3 million in weekly running costs has lead to this costly loss. In comparison, most Broadway flops lose a comparatively small $5-15 million.
A "sleeker" version of the musical is now planned for both Las Vegas and Germany.
