The guys are really great hosts! Filippo is extremely helpful - he provided us with breakfast and even drove us around! And he has fabulous sense of humor :-) He made us feel very welcome. The apartment is very cosy. There were problems with heating all over the Rome when we were there (during the winter), so we had to use the hosts' electric heater a lot. The location is OK (several stops of the regular light train from the center), but you'll have to learn how to use Rome's public transport system, which is really weird.ValentinJanuary 2016
Beautiful place in Pigneto - 15min from Termini. Room was clean and cozy, there was a great terrace, where we drank wine at warm evenings. Practically next door is great and cheap pizza - Pizzeria da Simone - we eaten it almost every day, haha.. Filippo (and also his flatmate) was really nice to us and he helped us to get in his place. And finally they have a beatiful dog Nina, probably the kindest dog which I've ever met. Absolutely recommended!KateřinaJune 2016
The place is as nice, clean and spacious as you see it on the pictures! We are super happy that we've found it and definitely would book it again. Filippo and his flatmate were really nice and helpful, we even shared a welcome-wine in the kitchen. Also the area is lovely, it's all about the "real experiment" of rome. A lot of nice cafes and bars in walking distance, about 20min tram ride to the center though.PeggyFebruary 2016
We only stayed with Filo one night but he was very accommodating and his place is amazing! Would definitely recommend.EmilyJune 2016
We had a wonderful time in rome. The room is really big and wonderful. The guys are very helpfully and catches US up at the airport (ciampino) wich isnt far away. You only need round about 15minutes with the "tram" to termini. We can recommend it to others without restrictions .DennisFebruary 2016
Beskrivningen av lägenheten var korrekt, vi blev ändå väldigt positivt överraskade hur ljus och fin den var! Kvarteret vi bodde i var inte något speciellt, men inte långt härifrån finns Pigneto Island som är ett väldigt mysigt och lite hipster ställe, med många mysiga uteserveringar och väggmålningar. Lätt att ta sig in till centrum med spårvagn och även metro. Vi bodde med Filippo och Tancredi i några månader och vi kunde inte ha fått bättre rumskamrater! Från första början fick de oss att känna oss som hemma, visade oss runt och lärde oss om staden. Vi har haft många trevliga söndagsmiddagar och kvällar med dem! Rekommenderar starkt denna lägenhet för par eller mindre kompisgäng, men även för andra då det är ett väldigt flexibelt boende.Jessica May 2016

Manuel is a great host who takes really good care of his guests! The location of the apartment is perfect. It is very clean and has everything you need for a short stay. I definitely recommend it ! Thanks Manuel :)MélanieJune 2016
Manuel let us know ahead of time that he could not be there to meet us but sent specific instructions on how to pick up keys and even left a note to welcome us! The studio is a small first floor apartment for 4, but very clean and the shower is "large" (rare for many AirBnBs.) There was hand soap, body soap, shampoo, and plenty of towels / linens -- and AIR CONDITIONING!!! We were very comfortable during our one night there. If you are staying to explore Rome, it is a little outside of all of the main attractions so you will find that you will have to walk a fair bit or take public transportation - but VERY close to the train / bus station to the airport or connections to other cities, which was excellent and just what we needed. Manuel was prompt in answering every message and very friendly - great to communicate with him!VickeyJune 2016
Great place to stay in Rome. As Manuel's first guests, we were very pleased! The one room is cozy and perfect for 3 or 4. Location is very convenient with about a 15 minute walk to many tourist spots. Manuel was so helpful and thoughtful and I would definitely stay here again if I ever go back to Rome. Thanks, Manuel, it was a pleasure to stay in your apartment!BeverlyJanuary 2016
Manuel was a really nice host! Though he couldn't be there to welcome here, he made everything he could to make us comfortable. His tips and advices were amazing! The flat is very well-located (near Termini), and perfect for a short stay. Thanks a lot!VithongJanuary 2016

We were very happy with Manuels apartment and welcome. The location is perfect for seeing Rome. The apartment is small but cozy as described. Manuel was always in contact to see if we needed anything.NevilleJuly 2016
We enjoyed our stay very much, it was great for us three. It was such a welcoming atmosphere from the beginning. The place and everything in general was just as described. The decor was modern and very clean. We were in walking distance to the Colosseum and many other sites. The location was perfect! Manuel was very easy to get in touch with. He was super helpful from the beginning, was easy to contact and made sure we had everything we needed. We highly recommend staying here!VanesaMay 2016
We had a fantastic few days in Rome - the apartment was great, and easy walk from the main train station, as well as to many of the famous sites. Manuel was a really friendly professional host. Check-in and check-out were a breeze - and nice and flexible. The flat was nice and clean and quiet at night. Thanks so much Manuel :)AmeliaApril 2016

An antique property, accessible by elevator, located very close to Piazza Venezia and to the Altare della Patria (a.k.a. Monumento Nazionale a Vittorio Emanuele II). It is about 16 minutes walking to the Roman Colliseum and 35 minutes to the Train/bus Terminal. Close to Piazza Venezia I was able to get the Trams 8 that made the connection to the train that goes to the Fiumiccino airport. The two bedrooms of this property are separated by a nice and clean bathroom and both are very independent from Emanuele's place. Both have a small TV and the beds were very clean and comfortable. Emanuele was an excellent host, wishing always to help me on how to maneuver into the historic center of the city. If I come back to Rome I won't hesitate to choose this place again.JorgeFebruary 2015
This is a cool and funky apartment with very nice views and Located in the hearth of Rome! Emanuele is a great person, friendly and I'll definitely be back! Thanks for everything. NoeliaNoeliaFebruary 2015
Very easy to find place and was very easy to contact him to get let in and notified of what floor he was on. A note to be made the floors start at 0 and go up so when he tells you the floor it is up one extra flight. He greeted me at the door and showed me the place and gave me a few tips as to places I could check out to get a good meal. It was a quick trip for me so not much to say about Rome, but with the Spanish steps and the Trevi fountain closed for maintenance make sure to keep that in mind for your sight seeing. The room was great and the windows provided excellent cross air flow.JamesOctober 2015
Great location. I walked to everything in 20 min or less. Great natural light! The bed was comfortable. Emmanuel was very helpful upon my arrival when my train was late. A nice little breakfast in the morning. I recommend staying hereTinaMay 2015
A great place to rest in the heart of Rome.RachelApril 2016
Emanuele is a superhost, approachable and always happy to help with anything one needs. The room was clean and I would recommend a stay at Emanuele's to anyone.GivenMay 2016
Emanuele was helpful and kind = truely interested in helping your time in Rome be the best (restaurant, activity suggestions,etc.) the room was sunny and perfect. Amazing location = walk everywhere. I will recommend to friends and stay again myself when in Rome next! Thanks Emanuele!rustyApril 2016
Emanuele is a wonderful host! He is very polite and friendly person, he provides all the important information you will need in Rome. His apartment is beautiful and in a perfect location. Highly recommended! No doubt I will stay again in his place if I happen to visit Rome again!SergeApril 2016

A little out on the centre of Rome but a good bus service and no issues if you are happy to do a bit of walking! Being slightly out of the centre made eating a much more enjoyable experience though, much better restaurants which were not tourist prices! Apartment was as pictured and was exactly what we wanted.JordanMay 2016
Great location! The apartment is nice and the hosts were very responsive and helpful. I would gladly recommend this place to others.Gregor & MariaApril 2013
We booked this room for one night on the way back from Florence before flying out of CIA. The best part about this place was the bed and it's proximity to both Termini (15 minute walk) and a stop on the 492 bus line (5 minute walk) which made getting around fairly easy. Check-in was easy. The only downside was the reliability of the internet which was sub-par.TylerFebruary 2014

Good place!SarahJuly 2015
The apartment is fantastic...very clean, spacious, and has an aircon which was a serious necessity for our stay during the hot, hot summer. The location isn't (URL HIDDEN) far from most of the tourist-y areas and the neighbourhood isn't great. There are good and cheap places to eat around the area however. There is a bus (71) that brings you to most of the areas you need to go (about a 30 minute ride), and the train station (Termini) is about a 20 minute walk away. The worst thing was our check-in...Giovanni never replied to messages or calls so we were left unsure of confirmation and standing outside the flat with no response for a really long time.ErinSeptember 2015
The apartment was very nice, good service and a nice neighborhood. The room was clean and very beautiful with the wooden roof.SanderFebruary 2016
Our stay was short so Giovanni's apartment was our nice safe house for 2 nights. It was clean and comfortable and nice front desk service as we arrived late and left early in the morning. I'd recommend it to everyone.LukasApril 2013

Manuela was nice and caring and she tried much to keep the place filled with useful things! She was also accessible by phone. Though the place was a bit hard to find for someone totally new to Rome, but kinda close to public transport.MinaMarch 2016
We had a great stay at Manuela & Claudio. They were very hospitable and tried to help us as much as possible. The location is also great, within 15 minutes you could be in the city center.RikSeptember 2015
Wow, Manuela made us feel like we were visiting a family friend. She not only walked to meet us at the metro station but also had iced tea and snacks waiting for us in the room. She was so warm and helpful and made sure we had everything we could possible need. At first I was a little afraid we would be to far away from central Rome, however, Rome's public transport is very efficient and reliable, it was very easy to go from Manuela's to the center and get back home in the evening. I would add that we stayed on a Saturday night and the noise from the bar nearby was a little loud. We simply put in headphones, it was not a problem for us. However, if you have children or are in town for business it's important to note. Also the place was very clean and well decorated. And Manuela let us leave the luggage at her place until well into the evening the following day, which was very handy for us as we had a late flight home.MauraMay 2015
Nice stay with ViDa's house! The hosts are very nice. They provide us many helps and give us lots of recommendation. Nice holiday with ViDa's homeYuchenOctober 2015
Manuela and Claudio made everything easy and comfortable. Their local train station has a direct route from the airport, so it's simple and Manuela met me at the train station (after waiting 40 mins in the heat) to show me where the place was. It is very close to bus, subway, and commuter rail lines.MattSeptember 2015
It was a fantastic stay. The rooms are private and clean. Manuela and Cladio are perfect hosts, they made me feel like home. They explained how to get around in the city and gave me other great tips. Great place.AnettAugust 2015
Thanks so much you Manuela and Claudio for the very friendly meeting and clear and nice room! We really enjoyed to stay in this place. A pleasant surprise was a light dreakfast with real italian coffee!!! It is rare to find a good place for a low price!MariyaAugust 2015

Monica's communication before the trip was reassuring and prompt. The apartment is centrally located and a brisk walk would get you across to the Vatican City, Piazza Novona, the Pantheon, Trevi etc. We saved a lot on transportation. There are many restaurants and cafes in the vicinity, so you'll never go hungry. Note: Airbnb lists this apartment as a 2 bedroom with 4 beds. It is a 1 bedroom apartment with a comfortable bed and two couch styled beds in the living room. So if you're expecting two rooms with privacy, you'd be disappointed.JyothiJune 2015
Great long weekend here ! The location is exactly where you should be to enjoy few days in Rome. Though it is a very lively neighborhood, we had peaceful nights. The flat is very cute, typical and most of all well-organized and fully equiped. We even found a playstation! Just a thing : The extra beds in the living room might go for children but were unsatisfying for the all-adults we were.WilliamApril 2015
Fully recommend for a couple who want to stay in the center of... everything. A typical italian old apartment in the center of the historical center of Rome. Just 3 steps from all that beautiful old alleys full of beautiful restaurants and traditional pizza, 3 minutes from a super market, less than 5 minutes from piazza navona, 6 minutes from fontana di trevi & piazza di fiori. You can live there like a everyday roman people. If you like to be one with the romans this is the place. The stairs to the 3rd floor apartment where old so you have to be careful if you have kids. The wi-fi was fast. When we arrive we hadn't met Monica but her friend Monya. A very friendly person ready to help an give any information you would need. Very flexible to the late check out without any annoying extra charge for late arrival. Our one week stay was beautiful. We wish we could stay longer.ChrissJuly 2015
Easy communication and was flexible when we arrived a bit later than planned. Place was in a great location (easy walk to everywhere) and was spacious enough for two couples. Would definitely recommend.Shaun May 2016
The appartment is like the picture on airbnb. We were welcomed by her sister which explain us everything. The location of this appartment is perfect to visit Rome. We could walk to any places which we enjoyed a lot. Moreover, on the street, just down the appartment, there are a lot of places to eat. I recommande this appartment if you want to visit Rome. Thanks Monica!EmmanuelNovember 2015
L'appartement est merveilleusement bien situé à 2 pas de la Piazza Navona, en plein quartier historique de Rome. La description est conforme et nous avons été très bien accueillis. Cet appartement, bien que peu lumineux a beaucoup de charme et on s'y sent bien. Nous y avons passé un agréable séjour en famille.BokobzaFebruary 2015
Bonjour Monica, L appartement était top, vraiment athipique et très très bien situé... nous avons adoré. La climatisation et ventilateurs étaient vraiment important. Petit points négatif : la douche qui etait petite et mal éclairé et le ménage sur certains points comme les ventilateurs qui etaient poussiéreux. Toiles d araignées. Mais en règle générale c était vraiment très bien. A bientôt Marina Jennifer cedricMARINAAugust 2015
L'appartement est très bien situé, en plein centre de Rome ,nous avons tout fait à pied. L'accueil de la sœur de Monica a été très avenant et elle s'est montrée très disponible lorsque nous avons eu besoin d'elle. L'appartement est un peu sombre car situé dans une petite ruelle et un peu bruyant la soir et le matin ( inconvénients du centre ville!!) mais rien d'insupportable.pascaleApril 2015

Unfortunately didn't meet Alessio himself but we met his father who was very kind. Apt was just as described and Alessio was usually quick to respond to any questions we had. Would definitely recommend! A great host!LindsOctober 2013
Alessio is very friendly and hospitable host. His apartment is located in a pleasant residential area close to the metro Re di Roma. There are many shops and a lot of place where to eat. Also, just a 5-7 minute walk Piazza San Giovanni, Santa Scala, baptistery, where the Emperor Constantine was baptized and the highest Egyptian obelisk; 10 minutes more - Colosseum halfway to which (from San Giovanni) - Basilica of San Clemente, where buried Konstantin Philosophy, better known as Kirill. PS: Alessio, spessial thanks to you for the tip - Shooters restaurant is just a wonderful place, and of'course I should confirm that the best teramisu is in Bar Pompi (5 minute walk from the apartments). With many thanks and best regards, Olga, Sergey and Veronika.OlgaApril 2015
The apartment is very spacious, clean and well equipped and the two separate bedrooms makes it convenient for families or two couples. Alessio is very sweet and well organized. He gave us lots of good advices regarding both the neighborhood and Rome in general. We would definitely stay there again!RikkeMay 2013
These 3 nights in Roma were wonderful! Alessio wasn't here to welcome us because of his work but had asked his father to help us in everything and left us a cell with his number to call him. The flat is very quiet and has all convenience that you need to find to feel at your's: the bed as the sofa bed are amazing - god bless the alarm that we could every morning wake up ;), and the situation is perfect, 3 minutes by foot from the nearest subway station Re di Roma. We definitely recommand Alessio's place for your next stay in Roma!FlorenceOctober 2013
We stayed in this apartment for 8 days. We were five people: me, my wife, my parents and our 15 month old daughter. The apartment has a great location, few steps away from the Metro station (Line A) and very near bus stops (for a number of buses, including 87 which takes you around many major spots). The supermarkets, baby stores, shops for clothes and bio products, pharmacy, etc are all in or around the large square (Re di Roma) which is just around the corner of via Lavinio. And the best shop for Tiramisu in Rome is just a few lanes away! There is also a good Indian restaurant in the square. Also pizzerias, cafes, etc. Although the apartment is near a very busy and lively square, the Via Lavinio itself is a quiet lane, and peaceful, which was important for our baby. A short flight of stairs lead to the elevator to the apartment, which is on the first floor. The apartment itself is exceedingly well furnished, with a fully equipped large kitchen, a very nice bedroom and a living room (both with air conditioners and heaters) and comfortable furniture (including 2 large wardrobes). The rooms are large, and the two sofas in the living room open up into two double beds. I suppose even 6 adults could stay there comfortably. Alessio had taken care to provide us with towels, sheets, blankets (which we did not require eventually as it was very warm), kitchen linen, detergent liquid, soaps,mosquito repellent, cleaners, etc. He thought of even the small details, which we appreciate very much. He got the apartment cleaned once during our stay. There is a washing machine too, which was very useful to us. The apartment is tastefully decorated and we found it a very warm and welcoming place to stay away from home. The large bookcase has good books on Rome, which we found interesting to read. However, we think the best thing about this apartment (having lived in numerous apartments in Europe in the past years) was the owner, Alessio himself. He is a very helpful and friendly person, who showed us great hospitality, genuine concern (got us baby food before we landed!) and amazing thoughtfulness (gave us a mobile with preset numbers including his contact number and emergency etc). He speaks fluent English, has himself traveled around the world, and is always ready to help. He also gave us good tips about restaurants, showed us the supermarkets, and provided us with a bus directory that proved to be invaluable. Alessio helped us in numerous other ways that added a special human touch to the whole experience of Rome, that we will cherish forever. We wish him the best and highly recommend this apartment to future guests.Sanjay KumarJuly 2012
The apartment was absolutely wonderful. We were only a short walk from the Colosseum, and had easy access to all the other sites. The place is big with great AC, a full kitchen, and everything else we could need. There was some pretty low water pressure for the shower, and it took some figuring out to finally understand the hot water, but otherwise all went well. Alessio provided us with great information about where everything was, and even set us up with a taxi for the ride to the airport. Great apartment with a great host.MatthewJuly 2014
We spent 3 nights at Alessios place and totally loved it!!! We met with both Alessio and his father, lovely gentlemen from whom we learnt a lot about Rome, where to eat, where to visit, how to catch public transport etc. The apartment is very conveniently located, close to anything we would need to get to: metro, shops, chemists, banks, restaurants, tourist attractions, everything really!!! The place is also very homely and comfortable with 2 good sized bedroom and fully equiped kitchen. The bathroom is a bit smaller than it looks in photos but functional. Would strongly recommend the place.Terry and MinhApril 2015
Very good flat, the location is great, the flat is big, very clean, the kitchen is well equipped. Alessio was very helpful, he was waiting for us at our arrival, he gave us a lot of helpful info, and he arranged our taxi for going back to the airport.FredericOctober 2014

We were met by a friend of Claudia. After some initial problems with the lock, things were fine! Very central location which made it very easy to walk to places of interest. Accommodation suffers slightly from lack of direct natural light, but this didn't bother us as we were out most of the time. The shower doesn't drain properly, but you can turn off the water and wait for it to drain, then continue the shower. All in all, I would highly recommend this accommodation.TomOctober 2015

Highly recommend.RyanJune 2016

I had a fantastic time at Sabrina's. She pays a lot of attention to her guests and is always available. The room is the same as shown on the pictures. Everything is clean and spotless. There is a kitchen one can use and Sabrina also has some free food everybody is allowed to use. The connection to Rome's historical center is very good. But don't miss to take a walk in Trastevere. It is a lovely and beautiful neighborhood with lots to see and not so many tourists. Thanks Sabrina for everything. It was a pleasure staying at yours.DeniseApril 2016
The room was everything I wanted – cosy, clean and comfortable with easy access to the bathroom and the kitchen (where you have everything you need, even more !). Sabrina is great, very helpful host, she really cares about guests (she helped with the phone, she was very flexible with my check-in and check-out, etc). Thank you, Sabrina ! The Quarter is very quiet and so beautiful, 5 minutes walking from the Tram 8 which goes directly to Piazza Venezia and 10 minutes walking from Trastevere Station (so in 20 minutes you are to Fiumicino Airport !). A slightly longer walk to Gianciolo and from there to San Pietro and Sant'Angelo…. just great !MihaelaJanuary 2016
It was my first experience with Airbnb, and it was absolutely perfect. Sabrina is very welcoming, she meets all her guests very friendly, so I felt like home in her wonderful house. I stayed in the cozy private room on the second floor of the house, there was also shared full-equipped kitchen. Very clean, very silent place... Sabrina also provided some food and juice for breakfast, you can use coffee and cereal in the kitchen. The neighborhood is excellent too: there is Gianicolo not far from house, one of the most spectacular views on this eternal city. Trastevere - one of the most interesting areas of Rome is also there. Vatican is there too - you can reach it by walk, it takes just about 30 min. If you prefer city transport instead of walking, you can also use tram to get Centro Storico - the tram stop is near the house, just about 5 min. Hope, I'll be back in Rome and Sabrina's friendly house. Thank you, Sabrina! Everything was perfect! :)NataliiaOctober 2015
Sabrina is very nice and responsive. I liked the look of the place. Beds could have been a little softer but it was still a great restful retreat.VincentJune 2015
I was looking for a room with economical price and not central. So it was 100% perfect. Also it's in a totally residence area as a house form, which was very nice experience. Quite and calm and everything is clean. Everything is equipped in kitchen area. Unfortunately there is no bar or market very nearby. One big supermarket in few minutes by walking. Transportation connection is very nice. 5min walking till Traste ere train station and many trams line around. Host seems busy but she answers for any question very rapidly. I really really enjoyed.HyemiJuly 2015

We loved Rome and we loved staying st Claudio's house! Claudio is a great host, very kind. The house is super cool, well organized and clean! We stayed five nights and six days and we loved every minute! Claudio helped us with The transports, wich are very easy, every 10/15 minutes and in 20/25 minutes you're in the center, and some suggestions of really nice places to go and delicious restaurants! Claudio's home is in a quiet and familiar neiberghood. It was really good to arrive home and feel the smells of Claudio's cooks! We gás the oportunity to Be at home with him onde night, talking and drinking some wine, ir was a lovely evening! We loved our trip and for sure, staying at Claudio's home made everything even special! We're back to work and we can't stop thinking about Rome! We will Be back! Maria & Pedro from Lisbon, PortugalMariaApril 2015
My boyfriend and I wanted to stay at a place closer to the Ciampino airport since we had an early flight. That being said we picked Claudio's place even though it's a little further from the city of Rome because we didn't mind commuting back and forth via the new Metro C which is down the street. Claudio is really nice and helped us out a lot. His place has a retro feel to it, and had everything we needed. I would definitely recommend his place! Grazie Claudio!AngelMay 2016
Claudio is a great host he really makes you feel at ease and at home. The apartment is eclectically decorated and interesting. The room was tidy clean and the bed was comfortable. The location is slightly outside the center of the city near Torre Spaccata metro station but even in the middle of the night the bus service is easy. I would highly recommend CasaMia to other I had a wonderful stay and would visit again.JohnJune 2016
I stayed at CasaMia for 4 nights and enjoyed my stay. The flat was creatively decorated and my room was spacious and comfortable. The location is well connected to the center, with a direct tram and bus, as well as a new metro line that almost gets you into the center (Hopefully by the time you're reading this Lodi and San Giovanni will be connected!). There are plenty of supermarkets nearby (Lidl and Carrefour), as well as a shopping mall. Overall, everything was great, except for one thing. The one drawback is that Claudio charges guests 10euro if check-in is done after 8pm. I was planning to arrive at 7pm, but was unexpectedly delayed and came 30mins past 8. Still had to pay. I understand charging a fee if a guest truly does come late (10-11pm), but 8pm is too early. So if you're going to stay at CasaMia, I recommend you come earlier than 8pm. Other than that, my stay was great! Would stay again if my flight is earlier in the day :)Andrew and SolyaMay 2016
The room is really brilliant and big!Casa is a nice person. Highly recommend!JacobMay 2016
Claudio's apartment is decorated really creatively which as a graphic designer and event manager, I loved. We weren't very social unfortunately and rested for two days in our rooms but Claudio was friendly and helpful when he greeted us. The dog mentioned in the reviews was not present and it was a shame we could not use the stove as there is no other way to heat food. The bins in the kitchen were always full and could be maintained and emptied more... There is a metro near by but it still took us 2 hours to get to termini, even before peak hour. Plan well ahead if you need to be at a train or connection by a certain time.Bianca May 2016
I was late to arrive due to delayed flights however Claudio was still available to show me in. Very comfortable bed and cool apartment, there is a bit of travel involved to get into the centre however the new train line is nearly finished which will make it a breeze.GeorgieJune 2016

Giulia´s apartment is cozy with a nice sunny balcony, and I liked also the real Roman neighborhood with a small mercado and local shops. My only disappointment was that she did not want to teach me tango, because one of the reason´s why I chose her place was the hope that maybe I could get some tango lessons at the same time!ToivoOctober 2013
I stayed with Giulia for a few weeks while I attended classes and a conference nearby. It was a fantastic experience! Giulia is a kind and thoughtful host, and a stellar person. I hope to cross paths with her again, and hope to be back in Rome soon! Location was easy to access from public transportation. Great places nearby for tasty food and cafe. Immaculate home. Super spot.MaryniaJune 2016
The apartment is very nice and clean! I like it so much, Giulia is a good person and she can explain very good!GeorginaMay 2015
Giulia is very accomodating host.At my arrival date there was a fire in the airport, so I had to get later,and Giulia has met me at the station Monte Mario. The flat is like in the picture, very clean and convenient.Location is (URL HIDDEN) take you 25 min to get the Museum of Vatikan or San Peter`s (URL HIDDEN) was so nice to communicate with Giulia.She gave me many instructions about transport in Rome. So Rome is a wonderful city. I recommend you Giulia`s flat.RomanMay 2015
Giulia is a nice host, when she take me to the room which I lived, I find that there are three chocolates on the bed(so pretty). the house is beautiful and clean, full of sunshine. Although the language problem(my English is not very good), we didn't communicate too much, but Giulia answered my problem and gave me some advices patiently(e.g where to eat the Italian foods). In the end, Giulia give a big help, so many thanks. If possible, I'm sure I will come back Roma, and wish that Giulia can travel to china one day.lanphierOctober 2014
Giulia is a great host! I had a wonderful experience and she made me feel at home. Her home is nice and in a safe neighborhood. The main attractions are easily accessible by train/metro. She is great to talk to and I consider her my friend now. I highly recommend.JordanJune 2015

Matteo was very friendly and hospitable. Description and photos are very accurate. Apartment is modern and perfectly clean. It is located close to the tram stop from which the city center can be reached in 30-40 min. The view from terrace is great, you can see even mountains on the horizon (Monti Lucretili and Simbruini I guess). My girlfriend and I are really enjoyed our visit in Rome and stay at Matteo's home.MaksymilianAugust 2015
Matteo was a great host! The apartment is very clean, and the terrace is incredible. I would definitely recommend staying here.LilianaJune 2016
Matteo was a perfect host even when my friend and I arrived 3 hours later than scheduled. He was very understanding and kind, with the location being even more beautiful than the listing pictures. I would recommend this location to anybody who wants a great experience and nothing less.RowanJune 2016
Matteo se ha comportado de puta madre, legamos un viernes y estaba trabajando, asi que dejo las llaves en el bar de abajo y nosotros las cogimos, nos dejo esas llaves durante todo el viaje para entrar y salir cuando queramos. La casa limpia, se puede utilizar too, nos dejo un hueco en el frigo, el baño a nuestra disposicion con toallas, unas vistas desde el atico chulisimas, todo perfecto. El unico problema es que esta un poco alejado del centro pero si te sabes mover en metro, la estancia en roma te sale tirada!VictorJune 2016

I was a first time Airbnb user. Carlo was the best host a person could ask for. Even though we had language barriers, he was very patient and understanding. I've never laughed so hard with someone I just met. Carlo showed us the town and meet his friends. I would recommend this place to anyone.RandaJune 2016
Giancarlo lives in a 3rd floor walk up that is about a five-minute walk from the nearest buses and not much farther from Tuscolana Station. The room was as pictured with the addition of a desk. The apartment is spare but comfortable and has everything you need (wifi had not been installed when I was there, but it is supposed to be working now). The kitchen is always available for you to use. Giancarlo is very friendly, welcoming and wants to see that your needs are met. He went out of his way to help people, took people to the grocery store, showed them around Pigneto and introduced them to good local places to eat. I would recommend it as good value for money with a very agreeable host.jay paulMay 2016
Очень понравилось гостить у Карло ! Очень гостеприимный хозяин ! Всегда готов помочь, подсказать, если нужно сводить и показать то что интересует. Комната чистая, светлая. Балкон, ванная, кухня. Все что нужно. По моей просьбе провел интернет. Так что теперь проблем с Wi-fi нету ))) Все очень понравилось !!! )))ВасилийJune 2016

Alessandro 's flat is really nice, clean, peaceful and new. Terrasses are cool ! Near Vatican, there is also bus and metro for going to other district of Rome or walking... Alessandro take care of his guest, available and friendly with great advice about Rome and restaurants. We spend a wonderful stay. I recommand this place !Thanks a lot.lydianneApril 2016
The appartement is beautiful, well arranged, clean and the terrace is so pleasant! The hosts are very nice and willing to help. They give good advices to look around Roma. Very nice experience!AnaïsMay 2016
This apartment is BEAUTIFUL - it has a huge terrace with a wonderful view, and then another smaller one upstairs which the bedroom french windows open out onto. The flat has everything you need and was spotless. Alessandro and Elisa were absolutely sweet - they could not have been kinder. They even went out and bought an iron and an ironing board for me when i asked them if i had one! It is very easy to get into town -- the metro stop, Ottaviano, is only a 10-15 minute walk away, or if you like walking you could easily walk into the centre in about 45 minutes -- a lovely journey. There are also lots of buses, and all kinds of restaurants around. Very highly recommended.RoseJune 2016
We loved our stay and the appartment! Alessandro and his wife are great hosts very helpfull and friendly. Next time in Rome Will be at their place again!!RomainMay 2016
The accommodation was immaculate with excellent facilities. Alessandro was friendly and extremely helpful and seemed to be constantly available and quickly able to respond to our text messages.ChristinaMay 2016
We could not have loved this apartment more, not to mention the hosts! Alessandro and his partner met us at the apartment and took us through. They told us where to go, nice local places to eat and a bit about the area. The house was so clean and modern. It was just amazing!! The terrace was gorgeous... Looks exactly the same as the photos. The area is lovely! I have been to Rome many times and although the apartment isn't in the middle of the city centre, the location of the apartment is a perfect. It's not a long walk to the Metro and there are lots of buses around. We walked to the pantheon which took around 45 mins but was a lovely walk through the streets of Rome. I cannot fault this apartment or the hosts at all. What a gem!AlexJuly 2016
We had a great 10 day stay here. This listing is modern, clean, practical with beautiful terraces and excellent security. The host was fantastic. Superb communication throughout. You couldn't hope to meet a nicer Roman! The location is super convenient with a 10 minute walk to the metro and plenty of handy supermarkets and local bars, restaurants and gellateria. The National institute of Astrophysics is 15 minutes walk away and from the public park around the Observatory I think you have one of the best views of the whole of Rome. Really excellent. 10/10RobertMay 2016
Appartamento splendido. L'arredamento è nuovissimo, molto bello e razionale. La terrazza è meravigliosa così come la vista sulla cupola di San Pietro che si gode dal secondo piano. Inoltre è in una zona tranquilla, ma ven collegata con il reato della città. Inoltre Alessandro ci ha lasciato una lista di posti dove mangiare, adatti ad ogni occasione è ad ogni gusto. Ha tutto l' occorrente per un piacevole soggiorno. Decisamente consigliatoyagoApril 2016

Gloria was very welcoming. Room was spacious and places around flat were very clean. If your looking for experience at roman home, then this place is not for you since it felt more like a hostel than someones home (bedrooms that share a common bathroom). But overall everything was fine and you are able to walk to lovely Monti and to the main touristic places.RekoJuly 2016
The host canceled this reservation 18 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.Liang
Gloria is very very nice! Perfect journey!燕May 2016
We had an excellent stay at Gloria's BnB. The room is big and the bed is very comfortable. We were able to walk to and from Termini with our bags. Gloria welcomed us as a very helpful host, even when our flight was delayed and even went out to get some Tylenol for my headache. Grazie!CrystalJune 2016
Gloria is very nice. The room is very clean.The bed is very comfortable.We have a nice trip in Rome.beijiaJune 2016
Gloria was friendly and accommodating despite the language barrier. The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and everything was very clean. The vibe feels like a hostel, because it isn't someone's home, rather bedrooms that share a common bathroom. The shower is extremely small but very clean. The bedroom has a double door, and even with the door locked, it's easy to push open and we didn't feel very secure.RyanMay 2016
Gloria was a wonderful host with a wonderful room! The room is located perfectly, we were able to walk to all the main attractions. It is also two minutes away from the Metro station and ten minutes away from Termini, the largest station in Rome. Needless to say it was easy and painless to get to anywhere you wanted to go. As for the room itself, it is large, clean, airy, and has a great view. Gloria provided us with everything we needed an more. Absolutely would recommend staying at this place.JaclynJune 2016

Re: Discover More 12 month wait for CLI
GebraJake wrote:
I have had a Discover More card for almost 7 months now (since march 20th 2012), and I keep trying to request a CLI and some say they dont know why they cant submit the request and other CSRs say i have to wait until the card is 12 months old. Has anyone else had to wait 12 months to request a CLI?
I just think that 12 months is ridiculous, the card is in good standing and at a 1k limit.
Why is it ridiculous? are your scores really high? do you have other cards that have much higher credit limits? getting denied a CLI is a bummer, but these banks are loaning you the money so if they dont want to give you more then thats up to them. Unless your income/scores/other CL's show you should get a higher limit i dont think you should feel entitled to a higher limit. Im not sure if this sounds mean or not but im not trying to be mean, im just voicing my opinion.

I feel so silly because no one else seems to be having this problem, but I can't get this plugin to work even right out of the box. I double-checked and its file path is fine (I saw a previous post about an extraneous folder but that's all fine).
Thinking it was something funny with my theme, I re-activated the default Twenty Eleven and it still didn't work. When I display the form with a shortcode on a page and try to submit, I get the error message defined in the settings (by default, "There was an error. Please ensure that you have added a title, some content, and that you have uploaded only images"). When I display it by hard-coding it into the page template and try to submit, I don't receive any message but a "submission-error=1" is tacked onto the end of the URL and I don't have any pending posts in the Admin area.
Does anyone have any ideas? This is extremely frustrating and I'm worried that I'll have trouble getting support in the future - seems like this awesome-sounding plugin has been all but abandoned.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 22.214.171.124
Forum Moderators: Ocean10000 & incrediBILL & phranque
mydomain.com (first site)
mydomain.com/site/ (second site) (connected to: my2domain.com)
Now I would like that everytime someone access that folder or any content inside that, from mydomain.com, it will be redirected to a 404 Not Available Page.
So that folder will only be visible when accessing the my2domain.com that is connected to that folder, sharing one hosting account with mydomain.com
Here is what I done.
I have this .htaccess inside the /site/ folder:
rewriteengine on
rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.mydomain.com$ [OR]
rewritecond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mydomain.com$
rewriterule ^$ "http\:\/\/mydomain\.com\/site/404/404.html" [R=301,L]
This redirect every one who is trying to visit mydomain.com/site to an 404 html page. But the problem is, that if you trying to direct link an image like:
mydomain.com/site/image.jpg (or)
it shows the second site! So I need that every files accessed this way will redirect the user to a 404 error page.
So the site inside that folder will only be available from the second domain.
:) Hope you know what I mean.
Thanks in advance.
That's really not a good approach. I'd suggest that you simply 'fix' the URL and redirect the request:
In example.com/site/.htaccess :
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]+\ /site/[^\ ]*\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://site.com/$1 [R=301,L]
The extra complication of checking THE_REQUEST is needed to prevent an 'infinite' loop caused by a conflict that would otherwise occur between this rule and the mechanism used to map site.com URLs to your /site folder.
Note several corrections to anchoring and escaped characters (regular expressions tokens need only be escaped in regex patterns as shown), and the single RewriteCond testing both the www and non-www hostnames.
Now... for example let's have:
Where kate.com is sharing the hosting of doggie.com using a folder (and not a separate webspace).
Now if someone is "too curious" and type in...
He will discover that kate.com is... sharing a host with doggie.com :/ so all I want to do is that...
everytime doggie.com try to access every file (index.html etc.) or even the folder that is using kate.com it will redirect to a 404 not available page...
but... if kate.com is accessing it's own folder on doggie.com/site/ it will show kate site. LoL.
Pretty confusing. :)
Allow me to 'enhance' my preceding post...
Did you empty your browser cache? I can't see any issue at all with jdMorgan's ruleset and I've been staring at it for about 10 mins and he's usually* right...
* When using the word 'usually' in conjunction with jdMorgan being right, I mean: I think out of all the posts of his I've read (probably well over 1000) there have been possibly two occasions where he had a little tiny error in one rule, which was probably a typo that slipped by his review... (IOW: It's very, highly, extremely likely your browser cache & the reason I stared at it so long is because if an error slipped by him it could very easily slip by me too, because if he makes one it's little, tiny and could easily go unnoticed, even by a trained eye.)
[edited by: jd01 at 4:28 pm (utc) on Oct. 3, 2009]
Don't be devastated anymore. :D
TY btw :)
IWO: Change it back to what it was when it was 'not working' just a little bit ago. There's no reason I can think of to not take people to the information they were looking for... It's not a duplicate or anything any more, you're just taking them from where it used to be to where it is now.
If you really don't want them to see it, there's not point in redirecting, just serve them a Gone error, but like jdMorgan said, that's really not the best idea.
Actually redirecting to a 404 error page is almost "suicidal" if you value your search rankings.

WASHINGTON - The Georgetown University volleyball team fell to 6-15 overall and 0-8 in BIG EAST play, as Notre Dame (14-6, 7-1) dominated the Hoyas in three sets 25-17, 25-12, and 25-13.
Sophomore middle blocker Dani White (Mission Viejo, Calif./Mission Viejo) had an outstanding match and was a bright spot for GU as they saw their losing streak extended to 14. White turned in a match-high 10 kills with a team-leading .471 hitting percentage.
16 different players saw time on the floor for the deep Notre Dame team. The Irish hitters were on fire, hitting at a .467 clip as a team while the Hoyas hit only .134. Toni Alugbue led a balanced attack with nine kills on 14 attempts. Maggie Brindock was successful on six of seven swings for a .857 percentage.
The Hoyas' best set was the first. However, the Irish maintained control throughout. It featured six ties and three lead changes early, all coming at 7-7 or before.
"We only earned six points in the second game and seven points in the third. When you only earn 13 points in two games you make it very difficult to win," said Head Coach Arlisa Williams.
Notre Dame played an efficient match, committing only five attack errors to GU's 15.
The Hoyas passed well on the night. Junior setter Haley Lowrance (Phoenix, Ariz./Sunnyslope) recorded 24 assists. "I thought that Haley did a nice job setting the hitter that was 1-on-1," said Williams.
"There are some really positive things, but unfortunately we didn't terminate those balls that were passed so well and set 1-on-1. We need to get kills there. If we're able to do that, I think it's a very different story."
Freshman outside hitter Lauren Saar (Plainwell, Mich./Plainwell) played well defensively in two sets in her first match back in the lineup since Sept. 15 against Presbyterian.
The Hoyas take the court at McDonough Arena this Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m., where they will meet BIG EAST foe DePaul.

Replacement Switch for Roll/Control by Hurst Shifters®. To ensure proper functioning of your Roll/Control system and provide an aesthetically pleasing switch setup, use this new, great-looking switch kit. A separate ''arming'' switch with a red LED lighted activation button guarantees ease of use, as well as a quick and effortless installation.
- Can be used to arm and activate your Roll/Control
- Can also be applied with nitrous or trans brake system
- Provides an aesthetically pleasing switch setup
- Comes with a red activation button and black rocker switch
- Includes 18-gauge wire, convoluted tubing, 4 amp fuse, and wiring connectors
- Easy installation
Whether you call it a roll control or line lock system, it's a must-have upgrade if you want to become a drag racer. With the Hurst Original Roll/Control system installed in your vehicle, you can be as quiet and still as a statue while waiting at the start line with the stage lights on. The system allows you to "lock up" the front brakes while letting the rear wheels spin free to heat up the rims in the burnout box for maximum traction down the road. Not only is it an exceptional way to warm up your tires, but you can also use your Roll/Control mechanism to produce those big, billowing burnouts to impress your mates or neighbors.
So, how does the system actually work? Controlled by a solenoid valve attached to a switch on your shifter, the Roll\Control mechanism locks your front or rear brakes, keeping you from rolling. Push and hold your brake pedal down, then press and hold the control switch down, next release the brake pedal while still holding the switch down and the solenoid will maintain line pressure to the front brakes, locking them up and thus allowing your rear tires to free wheel until the switch is released. Rigorous testing has proved a 1/100,000 of a second release time and vibration tests have seen up to 30 G's applied without mechanical failure. The only thing you should never forget about while purchasing the Hurst Original Roll/Control is that it cannot be used as an e-brake, or any other application requiring the solenoid to be activated for a long time.
Hurst Shifters, the world-famous manufacturer of exceptional shifter products, was established long time ago, in 1958, as an auto repair company. Soon Hurst has gained a reputation as America's number one shifter. Its great products first started appearing as factory-installed equipment in some of the world's most popular cars. So, purchasing any Hurst product today, don't forget that you are dealing with a piece of legendary Hurst heritage. No matter what vehicle you drive, with a manual or automatic transmission, Hurst has a top-grade shifter that will improve your car's performance with just a simple flick of the wrist. Specially designed to meet the needs of a performance car enthusiast, each and every Hurst transmission product is a one-of-a-kind work of art.

Enrollment status: Limited space available for both morning and afternoon classes.
We are scheduling several classes throughout the late spring and summer.
Hands-On Queen Rearing Class This session is a combination of information and hands-on experience with several methods to raise quality queens. Attendees will each be able to graft their own queens and then either pickup their cells the following week, or install them into nucs at a local mating area. (You may want to take this class in combination with the Hands-on Nuc class.) Limited enrollment.
Hands-On Nuc Class This hands-on experience provides solutions and methods to create splits and nucs for swarm control, queen-rearing, and a backup plan for overwintered deadouts. Class includes nuc equipment. Please specify if you are using deep or medium frames in your brood chamber. (You may want to take this class in combination with the Hands-on Queen Rearing Class.) Limited enrollment.
Hands-On Techniques for Natural Over-wintering Class Overwintering hives has been the number one problem for beekeepers in this area. Learn how to keep Varroa populations under control and your hives alive through manipulations, break in the brood cycle, splits, essential oils, and natural acids. Various essential oils and organic acid treatments will be available at the class.
If you are interested in any of these offerings, please email me at email@example.com to be put on the list. I will contact you with dates and more information. Or check back here later for more information.

Recommendations and Warranty Information
Please inspect your package carefully before you accept it. If you are unhappy with the package for any reason, do not take it. Once you receive the package, it is your responsibility to keep it alive.
Do not place the package in heat nor in the light--that will kill the bees. Keep them in the dark around 50-60 degrees until you install them in the hive.
The feeder cans in the packages are not scientific, do not rely on them to keep your package alive. Please spray packages down with sugar water periodically until they are installed.
When you install the package, if the queen is dead, call and we will find a replacement. Before installing the queen, make sure that she is alive in the cage. Inspect the corks to be sure that no cork is missing. When installing the queen cage, be sure that the screen is open to the bees--do not place the queen cage screen against the frame bar. Install the queen where the cluster will form--do not put the queen on the bottom board, as it is the coldest part of the hive. We will have a limited number of extra queens available through April. If there is queen failure during April and we have queens available, we will offer a queen to you at our cost.
We recommend that you keep the sugar water entrance near the queen cage--the best way to feed is through a jar with holes over the inner cover. If the weather is colder than 50 degrees at night, the bees may starve if the cluster is not touching both the sugar water and the queen cage. We do not recommend boardman feeders, top feeders, or frame feeders if the temperature at night is colder than 50 degrees, especially if you are installing a package in a new hive with no drawn comb.
For feeding packages, we recommend light sugar water the consistency of nectar (1:1 sugar to water). One recipe is 5 lbs sugar to 3/4 gallon hot water from the tap. Use only white granulated sugar. Do not use honey that is not your own, brown sugar, organic sugar, nor molasses. Some of these may kill your bees or spread American Foul Brood (AFB), an extremely contagious bee disease.
If the bees from your package become lethargic or start to pile up on the bottom board or bottom of the hive, they are most likely starving. There is something wrong with the sugar feeding system, the feeder is not next to the cluster, the sugar water has spoiled, the holes to the feeder are clogged, etc. This problem is not a virus or genetic defect. Each year this happens to a couple packages out of a thousand--and most often with top bar hives. If the hive has not gone too long, you can spray the bees with light sugar water and allow the sun to warm the bees. This may revive them. Please do not starve your bees!
It is very important to leave the queen caged until the workers have settled down and accepted the hive body--possibly 4-5 days, especially if the box is freshly painted or has never had bees before. The packages are fresh and often the queen has been with the workers for not even 24 hours--not enough time for the workers to have accepted the new queen.
If you install more than one hive in the same location, the package bees may drift and one hive may become stronger or weaker than the others. You can minimize this issue by using entrance reducers, placing grass in the entrance, or installing the packages later in the afternoon.
If the queen dies or is not accepted, place a frame containing some brood in the hive. This will keep the bees from leaving and also prevent laying workers. (See below.)
We recommend that you do not order packages for top bar hives if the weather is expected to be cold (below 50 degrees at night), unless you have a way to feed the hive with sugar syrup directly near the queen cage. We have had success applying Fondant on the side of the divider board and suspending the queen cage next to the Fondant. We recommend that you purchase a marked and clipped queen if you are installing into a new top bar hive, as the bees may abscond if there is no smell of wax or propolis and all of the smells are foreign.
Should you have any problems with queen acceptance, we plan to have some spare queens, which you may purchase at our cost. Please do not let the hive go for long without a queen or brood, as workers will start laying drones. (See below.)
Single Queen Purchases or Replacement Queens (Not Queens in Packages):
Please inspect your queen before you take her. Be sure she is alive and kicking. Check that corks are in both sides of the cage. Once you receive the queen, it is your responsibility to keep her alive.
Do not put place her in the light--that will kill her. Keep her in the dark at room temperature until you install her in the hive.
You must remove any existing queens before you install the queen. It is an extremely good idea to move a frame of eggs over to the hive first, and then check in 2-3 days to see if they form a queen cell. If they do not form a queen cell(s), your queen will probably not be accepted. If you see multiple eggs or many drone cells, See Laying Workers below.
If you do have a problem with queen acceptance, please let me know and you may purchase a queen at my cost subject to availability.
Please check your nuc before you take it. If you are unhappy with the nuc for any reason, do not take it. Once you receive the nuc, it is your responsibility to keep it alive.
Laying Workers:
The workers are females and therefore have ovaries. The queen pheromone and the brood pheromone keep the workers from laying eggs. If your hive goes queenless or you think the hive has no queen, we recommend that you place a frame of eggs in that hive. The presence of brood will keep the workers from laying eggs.
If your hive is queenless and all of the brood hatches, the workers will then start to lay eggs (unfertilized drone eggs) and you will see many eggs in a cell and bumpy drone brood all over. At that point it is nearly impossible to recover the hive. (When this happens in nature, the hive will die.) Most beekeepers take the loss, dump the bees out, and start anew.
Do not let it get to that point; place eggs or brood in a hive whenever you think it may be queenless. We highly recommend that you have at least two hives or a nearby friend or neighbor with compatible-framed hives who can provide you a source of at least a frame with a few eggs.

A fun, short video is doing the rounds showing how Diego Simeone's kids celebrated Atletico Madrid's win over Barcelona this week.
Simeone's children live in Argentina where they go to school, but after watching their dad's victory in the Champions League quarterfinal over Barca the kids celebrated in style.
Wearing their bathing suits and holding Atleti flags, brothers Gianluca and Giuliano Simeone, together with some friends, jumped into a water fountain and started singing songs in celebration.
Watch the sweet video below.

I just used ufw to enable port 1337 on my Ubuntu system for the first time. After that, my instance was fine, but port 1337 was still not open, so I changed the security group from the ec2 console. After that, I rebooted the instance.
After that, I could not ssh anymore. I also tried to access port 80, which was previously open, but now it looks as if all ports are blocked.
How can I get my Shell access back?

Monsignor Harold Waldow, pastor of St. Mary's Cathedral and vicar of clergy for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Amarillo, has seen his share of history at St. Mary's Cathedral School during his 43 years with the diocese.
"Back in the '50s and '60s, racial tensions were very high," he said. "For the Afro-American community, we had Catholic schools at St. Martin De Porres Parish and St. Hyacinth's."
Waldow said the Ku Klux Klan was a major force in Amarillo and didn't like an inner-city Catholic school downtown.
"Because of the work the (Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word) did at St. Anthony's Hospital and the school, it helped to change the environment of the city," Waldow said. "This church made a huge impact on integration and assimilation."
Louise Ross — a member of St. Mary's last graduating high school class, the Class of 1967 — said even though the high school no longer exists, she's happy to see the organization still serving the community.
"Even though it's an elementary school, it's still active and going strong," Ross said.
Kathi Lewis, principal of St. Mary's Cathedral School, said the organization stressed the importance of social service to the students early on.
"One of the things that the Catholic church teaches is service to others, that we all have a social responsibility for fellow man, so we are able to incorporate that value into our children at a really young age," she said.
Community service plays an important role in development of the child, Lewis said.
"It helps children to learn that it's important to give back to others and to the community," she said.
That mentality of helping others would play a part in determining the fate of St. Mary's in early 2007.
A Feb. 26, 2007, fire destroyed the church's sanctuary, causing an estimated $5 million in damage, according to AGN Media archives.
"Some of the first responses in support were from a lot of the churches downtown — Central Church of Christ, First Baptist, Polk Street and many others," Waldow said. "It was very moving, so overwhelming."
The church faced the choice to rebuild or relocate.
"Based on the support that we received from the faith community, it was very clear that we were meant to be downtown, so we rebuilt," Waldow said.
Waldow, who came to St. Mary's in January 2003 and will be retiring at the end of September, said he'll remain in the area but will be doing more mission work.
"I'll be doing mission work for Food for the Poor," he said. "I'll be preaching in mission appeals in countries like Haiti and Jamaica."
Even though Waldow will be in the field, he said he'll miss visiting with the children at St. Mary's.
In Waldow's office on his table sits a collection of squirrels given to him over the years by students.
"When I was in school, the relationship with the sisters and clergy were very different," he said. "The sisters were very strict."
Today, times have changed and building personal relationships is important for church staff.
"The kids don't see me as just a priest; I'm more like grandpa," Waldow said. "I call them, the little ones, the squirrels and I'm called Papa Squirrel."
The kids might miss seeing their Papa Squirrel, but Waldow is confident everyone will adapt and adjust to the new priest.
"In life, nothing stays the same," he said. "At some point, we all must move on to a new place."

I am developing a site in ASP.Net and VB.Net that will enable users to sort data in a GridView in Ascending or Descending order.
The records are coming from an SQL Server Express database.
I go to click on a column heading to sort the data and I get the following error:
'Conversion from string "DESC" to type 'Double' is not valid.'
Below is the code I am using for the sorting:
Protected Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim sqlConn As New SqlConnection
Dim sqlCmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand
Dim sqlReader As SqlDataReader
'If no values are supplied in the textbox, throw an error message.
If TextBox2.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("A centre code needs to be provided...")
End If
If TextBox2.Text <> "" Then
'Telling the system the location of the database.
sqlConn.ConnectionString = "server=servername;Initial Catalog=dbName;Trusted_Connection=yes"
'Here we are opening the connection to the database.
'This is to say that sqlCmd is a stored procedure.
sqlCmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure
'This is creating the command to execute the stored procedure based on the information given in the connection string.
sqlCmd = sqlConn.CreateCommand
'The command is triggered to execute the stored procedure which grabs all information for the specific centre.
sqlCmd.CommandText = "exec GetAllInformationKCSEBoxes '" & TextBox2.Text & "' "
'This will read the rows in the database.
sqlReader = sqlCmd.ExecuteReader()
GridView2.Columns.Clear() 'If there are rows of data that match are criteria
If (sqlReader.HasRows) Then
'The rows of data are grabbed for the specific centre from the database using the data reader.
GridView2.DataSource = sqlReader
MsgBox("The centre code provided does not exist...")
End If
'This is closing the connection to the database once we have finished with it.
'This is to clear the list of items out of the GridView box.
End If
End Sub
Property GridViewSortDirection() As String
If IsNothing(ViewState.Item("GridViewSortDirection")) Then
Return "desc"
End If
Return ViewState.Item("GridViewSortDirection")
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
ViewState.Item("GridViewSortDirection") = Value
End Set
End Property
Function GetSortDirection() As String
Dim GridViewSortDirectionNew As String
Select Case GridViewSortDirection
Case "DESC"
GridViewSortDirectionNew = "ASC"
Case "ASC"
GridViewSortDirectionNew = "DESC"
Case Else
GridViewSortDirectionNew = "DESC"
End Select
GridViewSortDirection = GridViewSortDirectionNew
Return GridViewSortDirectionNew
End Function
Protected Sub GridView_Sorting1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewSortEventArgs) Handles GridView2.Sorting
Dim myPageIndex As Integer = GridView2.PageIndex
Dim mySortdirection As String = GetSortDirection()
Dim sortExpression = e.SortExpression
Dim dv As New DataView()
If (GridViewSortDirection = SortDirection.Ascending) Then
GridViewSortDirection = SortDirection.Descending

'Protected Sub SortGridView(string sortExpression,string direction)
'DataTable dt = GetData().Tables[0]
' DataView(GridView2 = New DataView(GridView2))
' GridView2.Sort = sortExpression + Direction
' GridView1.DataSource = GridView2
' GridView1.DataBind()
' End Sub
I am not sure what this error means as I am not using a double, I am using a String.
My GridView is as follows:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView2" runat="server" Height="143px" AllowSorting="true" OnSorting="GridView_Sorting1"
How can I get over this problem?
All help and advice will be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks,

Red Tide (Mass Market Paperbound)
Special Order (unlikely to be available)
Terror has hit the West Coast with a vengeance—leaving a tunnel full of corpses beneath the Seattle streets, with a dark promise of far, far worse to come. Despite official attempts to keep the catastrophe under wraps, rogue journalist Frank Corso refuses to remain idle, immersing himself in a shadow world of senseless violence and unconscionable evil. For a strange connection that seems to tie one exceptionally brutal death with the impending destruction of thousands—perhaps millions—of innocent lives is pulling Corso and his best friend and ex-lover, photographer Meg Dougherty, deeper into the heart of a hideous conspiracy. And its nightmarish consequences will dwarf anything ever spawned by simple jealousy, greed, or bloodlust.
