Score from 1274 reviews Excellent
it was very cold in the room, i slept like in a cave and that after i called and i announced that we will arrive late because we were on the road! In a 4 stars hotel to weak up with earwigs on the bed it is not acceptable. The breakfast was poor and it was hard to find a table.
The hotel was located right in the heart of the city. The building was an old palace which makes you feel like staying in old Vienna. Room was spacious and clean. The breakfast buffet was rich and satisfying. The staff helped us on the locations we'll visit. They were friendly and helpful. If we'll ever get back to Vienna, we'll definitely stay in Perstchy Palais again.
The building is very authentic but some details need to be renovated.
We always stay here when in Vienna...staff is wonderful and make us feel like family. Location is excellent--walking distance to everything in the inner city. Never have problems here--can always rely on the Pertschy to make our stay wonderful!!!
Free coffee machine in the lobby. People in reception are ready to help always
Location, breakfast, staff, very good
Room, and comfort of bed very poor,
Helpful staff, very good location, clean room
We liked everything!!!
Excellent position. Very good breakfast.
Very small bathroom, very old fashioned room.
we got a wide room we got nice help from the desk people
Great location....walking distance to all the sights! Wonderful breakfast buffet, helpful and friendly staff. Very comfortable stay!
Excellent location,friendly staff and very clean
Would have liked a lounge,tea making facilities in the room,although available in reception and would have liked a safe in the room rather than reception
Very convenient to transportation, and historic sites. Neat, clean, quiet room. Very good breakfast.
The location is perfect. The hotel is so close to the centre of the city where you can spend a lot of time enjoying the beauty of the place.
If this hotel is to renovate a bit, it would be great.
Centrally located
The room was too small and the mattresses really bad. I could feel the springs in the mattress.
good location, wonderful staff very helpful and welcoming, great building :) :)
Extremely helpful reception staff in matters of tourist activities and restaurants, but in particular, assistance with credit card fraud issue in CK (Czech Republic). Location couldn't be better.
Very thin pillows, but maybe that's normal in Vienna.
Great location, helpful staff, best breakfast, comfortable rooms!
The locations was excellent and the staff was very helpful in making recommendations for sight-seeing and dinners.
The room was not air conditioned, but it caused no problem. We slept well with the window opened.
We booked a standard room but were very disappointed with it. The rating for this room should have been 2*. The bathroom looked about 30 years old and in the bedroom the woodwork was all chipped and parts of the wallpaper were torn. Not what you would expect in a 4* Hotel. As a result of this we upgraded our room as our stay was for 5 nights.
Lovely large room for my two daughters and a private area with a curtain for me , beds were so comfortable , I would Reccomended this hotel free coffee in foyer easy reach of centre
No air conditioning and maybe a fan in the room
Excellent location to main attractions and shopping areas. Breakfast was fabulous!
The carpet look dull and dirty.
Breakfast Location Staff
No A/C
But the location was difficult to locate as there is no sign board outside the property-except it says Hotel
the location is great , the breakfast is very good , the staff is adorable
the rooms are a bit poor ,the rate a bit high
People at the front desk, the location, the beds
The hotel needs renovation of carpets, curtains and new painting in beds and hallways. The rooms are very pretty but they smell.

Film review: 'An Education'
Date: November 24, 2009
by: Pam Nadon
Every so often, an unknown actor emerges onto the screen and takes our breath away. Carey Mulligan is one such actor whose brilliant performance in "An Education" gives birth to a rising star.
In her first major role, Mulligan plays Jenny, a 16-year-old A-student bound for Oxford. That is, until she meets the smooth-talking, wildly handsome David (Peter Sarsgaard), who's twice her age. Longing for a life outside Twickenham, England, and away from her stodgy parents (Alfred Molina and Cara Seymour), Jenny finds David just the ticket. He's sophisticated, hangs with glamorous people and wants to take her to Paris.
This guy is so slick that he gets her parents to agree to the trip.
When Jenny discovers that David's a con man and a thief, she ponders returning to plan A but comes to the realization that she's hooked on his intoxicating lifestyle. Her blind trust and naiveté have driven her down a path of painful regret, but in the end she takes stock in the valuable lesson learned.
Director Lone Scherfig ("Italian for Beginners") has concocted a magical movie based on a memoir by British journalist Lynn Barber. Nick Hornby ("About a Boy") scores big with a savvy and emotionally textured script. The acting is flawless. Sarsgaard is at his best in this role as the deceptive and entirely irresistible David. Emma Thompson, who's popping up everywhere these days in cameos (i.e."Pirate Radio"), is superb as the stern headmistress who tells Jenny that she "seems to be old and wise."
And that's exactly how Mulligan portrays the pixie/woman that dichotomizes Jenny's persona. She comes off so much smarter than her parents and yet so childlike when the walls come crashing down around her.
She makes us believe in every aspect of her character with the charisma of a seasoned actor. This is an Oscar-worthy performance.
"An Education" is just that. It takes us on a journey of self-discovery and has us leaving the theater feeling as though we've been somewhere important.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I still work a lot, but less than I did about a year ago. I was on call a lot, working late nights. I'd say I'm a 9 to 6'er, but that's on a good day. I have been able to get out and enjoy the area more now that I have more free nights. I like hanging out at Velvet Jones, listening to indie artists and the James Joyce is my favorite bar in SB.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Analyzing situations. It is what I've been paid to do for years so it carries over into my daily life. I'm also really good at combining dry, sarcastic wit with goofy humor.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I get comments about my blue eyes a lot, but I'm also a bit shy around new people at first. I warm up pretty quickly, especially if you can get me talking. ;)
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
I love asian food, and more specifically noodle soups. Pho, ramen, udon, etc.
I don't really have a favorite movie, but I'm currently enjoying Independent movies more than anything. Hollywood movies don't hold my attention like they used to!
My favorite band of all time is Pearl Jam. Eddie Vedder is the man and I love his work. In another life I would have been a singer/songwriter...

The Internet, fantasy books, the LA Dodgers, Vietnamese Pho, Beef Jerky, and Dr Pepper. ;)
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
When I should get pho next!
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Either in downtown SB enjoying the night or out of town. Maybe in LA watching the Dodgers play. Maybe at home sleeping, depending on how stressful work has been!
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
Uhh, I love to sing. I'm not amazing at it, but whenever I'm alone I will probably be singing, softly or loudly...
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
You want to hang out with a goofy guy that likes to try new things and is satisfied with where he currently is in his life. Always looking to meet new people for dinner, drinks, and fun.

94 N. Main Street, Jasper, GA - (706) 253-2457
A lifelong love of books and history brought Ingle to her work with libraries. Ingle said her next read will be The Snow Queen by Michael Cunningham, from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Hours.
(Ingle is the Library Manager at the local library.)
You are the Pickens County Librarian. Tell us a little of your background and what you did before coming here.
Jeff Samuel talks signs, faith, and the Virgin Islands
Jeff Samuel is the owner of Destination Signs in Jasper.
You were born in the Virgin Islands. How did you end up in Pickens?
Well, to be honest, my mother sent me to this country for the opportunity for a better life. However, I ended up in Pickens County when I got out of the Blairsville Detention Center. I had no residence so my counselor got me a room at the Jasper Mission which is no longer here.
You've been co-owner of Get To The Pointe for five years now. Why did you decide to start your own dance facility here in Jasper?
My business partner, Lauren Bail, and I both grew up here in Jasper. Our vision was to share our experience and passion for dance with the same community that supported us so many years growing up.
Has dancing always been a lifelong passion?
I started dancing at the age of 3. I was also involved in baton, gymnastics and other activities growing up. By the time I was in middle school I decided that I wanted to focus mostly on dance. I began studying with the Atlanta Ballet and later joined the Atlanta Jazz Theatre Company. While in high school, I decided that one of my career aspirations was to dance at Disney. I was able to fulfill this dream at the age of 18 (just 2 days after graduating PHS) when I moved to Orlando for 8 years to work for Walt Disney World as a performer and eventually as a Show Quality Specialist. I still enjoy working for Disney on a seasonal basis.
What's your favorite style of dance?
My favorite styles of dance are ballet and lyrical for two very different reasons. I love the discipline and structure of ballet, and the beautiful lines and creative freedom of lyrical.
You recently adopted a baby boy. What has been the absolute best part of having a newborn? The scariest?
Our journey to becoming parents was a struggle to say the least. I believe that everything we went through to get our amazing son has made us appreciate and enjoy every moment of being parents that much more. He is just always so happy and full of joy. As for the scariest part of having a newborn, in our situation, wasn't anything having to do with caring for the child. But more knowing in the back of your mind for the first 3-4 months that until everything was 100% finalized, there was still that small chance that something could go terribly wrong and he wouldn't be ours. Especially after hearing of other families struggles with adoption. However, thanks to the thoughts and prayers of our church, community, and unbelievable family and friends, everything went extremely smoothly and there were no unexpected bumps in the road.
What brings you joy?
Nothing brings me more joy than watching our dancers as they grow. To see them accomplish things in dance that initially seemed impossible and the resulting self-confidence when they do, is the greatest reward to me. As a new mother, I can't wait to experience this with my own child.
Tell us something most people don't know about you.
I was a performer in the 1996 Olympic Opening & Closing Ceremonies in Atlanta. Although it was one of the WORST costumes I have ever had to wear, it was an awesome experience that I will never forget.
What is your earliest memory?
My memory seems to work a little differently than most. I don't really have any early childhood memories. However, I can tell you EXACTLY what outfit I wore on the first day of school every year from kindergarten through high school and can describe every costume I wore in every dance routine that I have performed since my first recital!

I have a new Sony Vaio ultrabook svt141a11l and I'd wish to install ubuntu 13.10 along side its preinstalled Windows 8.
I know I have to disable intel SRT for the installation from the live USB but I wonder if I can enable it back once ubuntu is installed. Would anybody have a word on that?
Thank you, TS

Many editions of the word board game Scrabble vary in the letter distribution of the tiles, because the frequency of each letter of the alphabet is different for every language. As a general rule, the rarer the letter the more points it is worth.
Many languages use sets of 102 tiles, since the original distribution of one hundred tiles was later augmented with two blank tiles.
|Table of contents
|2 blanks
English-language editions of Scrabble contain 100 letter tiles, in the following distribution:
When Alfred Butts invented the game, he initially experimented with different distributions of letters.[1]
A new Mattel-licensed product, Super Scrabble, was launched in 2004. This set is composed of 200 tiles, in this distribution:
The over- and underlines indicate modifications from the original distribution, with overlines indicating more than double the original distribution, and underlines indicating fewer.
Afrikaans editions use these 102 tiles:
Afrikaans uses the letters Z and X, but so infrequently that there are no tiles for them in the standard set. A blank can still be used as a Z or an X. There are also no tiles for C and Q as these letters are not used at all in Afrikaans, except for in a few loanwords.
Arabic-language editions use the following 100 tiles:
Although Arabic letters have up to four forms, Scrabble tiles only make use of the isolated form. This pattern of composing words is also found in Arabic crosswords and is one of the rare situations when Arabic letters are not connected to each other.
Armenian-language editions use the following 146 tiles:[2] This version is called ԲԱՈ ԽԱՆ (bao khagh, meaning words game) and is not an official edition by Mattel.
Basque-language Scrabble sets use these 100 tiles.[citation needed] Called Euskarbel, this is not an official edition by Mattel.
C, Ç, Ñ, Q, V, W and Y are absent because they are only used in loanwords.
Bulgarian-language Scrabble sets, which use Cyrillic letters, use the following 102 tiles:
Catalan-language editions use these 100 tiles.
Accents and diaereses are ignored; for example, À is played as A. Nevertheless, there are special tiles for the C with cedilla Ç (ce trencada), the sign L·L representing the geminated ell (ela geminada), as well as the digraph NY. Playing an N tile followed by a blank tile to form the digraph NY is not allowed. Official rules treat the Q tile as just one letter, but usually Catalan players use the Q tile like the QU digraph and all Catalan Scrabble Clubs use this de facto rule.[1] (Catalan) K, W, and Y are absent because they are only used in loanwords or the digraph ny.
Croatian-language Scrabble sets use the following 103 tiles:
Q, W, X and Y are not included, as Croatian does not use those letters.
Czech-language sets use the following 100 tiles:
Q and W are absent because they are only used in loanwords.
Danish-language Scrabble sets use these 100 tiles.
This distribution lacks Q and W, which are rare in the Danish language.
Dutch-language editions consist of the following 102 tiles:
Prior to March 1998, there was a difference between the Dutch and the Flemish version: the Dutch version had 2 IJ tiles with a value of 4 points. Furthermore, it had only 1 F and only 4 S tiles; and the face value of the G was only 2 points. The Flemish version never had IJ tiles, it was as described above. The Dutch version is now in line with the Flemish one. Instead of the IJ letter a combination of the I and J is now used.
Despite the lack of commercially available sets, Esperanto Scrabble exists, but only as an Internet game (Rules for Esperanto scrabble).
Esperanto-language sets use these 100 tiles:
Q, W, X, and Y are not present, since Esperanto does not use those letters.
Estonian-language editions consist of the following 102 tiles:
The distribution lacks C, Q, W, X, and Y, since they are used in foreign words.
Finnish-language sets use these 100 tiles:
This distribution lacks Q, Š, W, X, Z, Ž, and Å, since they are rare in Finnish.
French-language editions of Scrabble contain these 102 tiles:
Diacritical marks are ignored.
German-language editions of Scrabble contain 102 letter tiles, in the following distribution:
Note that the letter ß (Eszett) is not used. This is due to the fact that it does not exist as a capital letter in German. While a majuscule ß (see Capital ß) has been established in the context of computing (Unicode), ß is replaced by SS when capitalizing, according to German orthography (e. g. Straße [street]: STRASSE). However, the umlauts Ä, Ö and Ü must not be replaced by AE, OE or UE when playing (as would usually be done in German crosswords where ß is also replaced by SS). Other diacritics which may occur in some foreign words are ignored (é = E, œ = OE etc.)[3]
Before 1989–1990, German sets had 119 tiles. Players had eight tiles at a time on their racks, as opposed to the standard seven today. The old letter distribution was:
German sets sold in North America by Selchow and Righter in the 1970s and 80s had 100 tiles, with a distribution as follows:
Greek-language editions of Scrabble contain 104 tiles.
Haitian Creole-language editions of Scrabble contain these 100 tiles:[4]
C, Q, U, and X have no tiles as they are not used in Haitian Creole. This version is made for educational purposes and is not distributed commercially by licensed owners of the brand.
Hebrew sets use these 104 tiles:
In the set, the final form letters ך, ם, ן, ף and ץ are not available and the normal form is used.
Hungarian-language sets use these 100 tiles:
DZ and DZS, which are fairly rare in Hungarian, have no tiles, nor do Q, W, X and Y, which are only used in loanwords, as part of the extended Hungarian alphabet.
Icelandic-language sets use these 104 tiles:
This distribution lacks C, Q, W, and Z, since they are rarely used in Icelandic.
Indonesian-language sets use these 100 tiles:[citation needed]
Q, and X, are absent because they are only present in loanwords.
Irish-language sets use these 100 tiles:
J, K, Q, V, W, X, Y and Z are absent since they are rarely used in the Irish language.
Italian-language sets use these 120 tiles:
Diacritic marks are ignored. The letters J, K, W, X, and Y are absent since these letters are only used in loanwords.
There are two kinds of Latin-language Scrabble sets developed by two authorities in the language.
The first distribution, developed by the Centre for Medieval Studies of the University of Toronto, uses these 100 tiles:
The second distribution below was made "in conjunction with scholars from the University of Cambridge and elsewhere, together with the Cambridge Schools Classics Project." Note that this distribution distinguishes U from V, with the semi-vocalic V scoring five times the points. Y is absent in both sets because it is rare in Latin, but is in an extended version of the first distribution, and is worth 10 points in there. K and Z are also absent in both sets because they are rare in Latin, while J is not considered separate from I. W is also absent in both sets because it did not exist in ancient times, and is used only in modern borrowed words.
Latvian-language sets use these 104 tiles:[5]
The letters Q, W, X and Y are absent, because they are used in foreign words.
Lithuanian-language sets (known as KrisKros Klasik) use these 104 tiles:
The letters Q, W and X are absent, because they are used in foreign words.
Malaysian-language sets use these 100 tiles:
Q, V and X are absent because they are only present in loanwords.
Norwegian-language editions of Scrabble use these 100 tiles.
The letters Q, X and Z are absent since these letters are rarely used in Norwegian.
Polish-language editions of Scrabble use these 100 tiles.
This set has been used since 2000. Before that year, a slightly different configuration was used: Ź was worth 7 points, F was worth 4 points, and there were 2 Fs, and 8 As. The letters Q, V and X have always been absent (since they are used in foreign words), and blank tiles cannot be used to represent these.
Portuguese-language editions of Scrabble contain 120 tiles.
While Ç is a separate tile, other diacritical marks are ignored. K, W, and Y are absent, since they are only present in loanwords in Portuguese.
Romanian-language editions of Scrabble use these 100 tiles.
Diacritical marks are ignored, so for example à and  are played as A. This distribution lacks K, Q, W and Y, since they are used in foreign words.
Russian-language Scrabble sets, which use Cyrillic letters, contain 104 tiles using this distribution:
The former Russian distribution, 126 tiles until the fall of Communist rule, was as follows:
Slovak-language sets use these 100 tiles:
Q and W are absent because they are only used in loanwords.
Since 2013, a new 112-tile set was introduced:
Slovenian-language sets use these 100 tiles:
Q, W, X and Y are absent, because Slovenian does not use those letters.
Spanish-language sets sold outside North America use these 100 tiles:
Stress accents are disregarded. The letters K and W are absent since these two letters are rarely used in Spanish words. According to FISE (Federación Internacional de Scrabble en Español) rules, a blank cannot be used to represent K or W.
Using one C and one H tile in place of the CH tile, two L tiles for the LL tile, or two R tiles for the RR tile is also not allowed in Spanish Scrabble (see rules in Spanish provided by the FISE).
Spanish-language sets sold within North America (known as Scrabble – Edición en Español) use - including "K" and "W" but without "CH" - these 103 tiles:
Swedish-language Scrabble sets (for a long time sold in Sweden as Alfapet, but that is now a different game) use these 100 tiles:
Note that the letters Å, Ä, and Ö have separate tiles. Diacritical marks are ignored, such as for É (Ü being an exception). Also, the letters Q and W, rare in Swedish, are absent, but can be played with a blank. The letters Ü and Æ require a blank and (as of 2010) only occur in one and three playable words respectively, müsli and three forms of the word Laestadianism (in Swedish spelt læstadianism).
Turkish-language sets use these 100 tiles (note distinct dotted and dotless I tiles):
The letters Q, W, and X are not used in Turkish and therefore do not appear in the set. Blanks may not represent these letters.
(see a completed Turkish Scrabble board).
Tuvan-language Scrabble sets, which use Cyrillic letters, use these 125 tiles:[6]
This version is made for educational purposes and is not distributed commercially by licensed owners of the brand.
An optimum Ukrainian-language Scrabble sets, which use Cyrillic letters, contain 102 tiles using this distribution:
Welsh-language Scrabble sets use these 105 tiles:
Since there are specific tiles for the digraphs that are considered to be separate letters in Welsh orthography (such as DD), it is not permissible to use the individual letters to spell these out. Diacritics on letters are ignored.
The digraph PH, which exists in Welsh, is omitted because it is used almost exclusively in mutated words, which the rules disallow. K, Q, V, X and Z also do not exist in Welsh. Arguably J does not exist in Welsh either, but it is included as it is sometimes used for borrowed words.

Turkey condemns 'brutal' killing of Palestinian teen
Thursday, July 03, 2014
ANKARA - Turkey has strongly condemned the murder of a Palestinian teenager in Jerusalem and called for the Israeli government to stop their "punitive" action against Palestinians.
A statement released by the Foreign Ministry on Thursday said: "Turkey strongly condemns this brutal murder that was apparently committed in revenge after the kidnapped Israeli teens were killed."
Muhammad Hussein Abu Khdeir, 17, was found murdered just hours after he was kidnapped on Wednesday. His killing is widely believed to have been carried out in revenge for the murder of three missing Israeli teens whose bodies were found on Monday.
Tension between Israel and Palestine has been high since the students – Eyal Yifrah, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Fraenkel, 16 – went missing last month, with mass arrests of Palestinians in the West Bank.
The statement continued: "The use of excessive force, which is extremely punitive against the Palestinian people, should be ended immediately."
The murder has caused indignation in Turkey and it expects the murderers to be arrested soon, the ministry added.
In the Gaza Strip, Israeli warplanes launched several strikes early Thursday, leaving at least ten Palestinians injured.

Clashes erupted in Giza Square on Monday between street vendors and security forces, leaving one street vendor dead, and another vendor along with two officers injured.
Fighting broke out when police launched a campaign to remove the vendors from the square, and they refused to leave. Police forces claim that the vendors fired guns at them, injuring two policemen. The police allegedly then fired back, killing one vendor and wounding another.
A source from the security forces alleged that the vendors stole weapons from the injured officers.
Ten vendors were arrested during the incident.

In the 21st century, preparing coffee has become an art form, with highly trained baristas competing in latte art competitions and coffeehouses hosting educational tasting events featuring unique coffees, called "cuppings." Coffee also has a socially conscious aspect, with Direct Trade sources preferred since they insure the ethical treatment of the coffee farmers, as well as sustainable growing methods. Artisan coffee roasting companies, aimed at satisfying this new interest in coffee, prepare small batches of single origin, estate, heirloom, shade-grown and organic beans sourced from destinations around the world. Charlotte has several local roasters including Magnolia Coffee, Boquete Mountain Coffee and Enderly Coffee. Some coffeehouses are getting in on the action, as well, roasting their own beans on site. Here are some spots in Charlotte where the coffee is guaranteed to be freshly roasted, freshly ground and have an interesting provenance.
Dilworth Coffee
1235-B East Blvd.
Charlotte, NC 28203
(704) 358-8003
Charlotte's original coffeehouse, Dilworth Coffee broke new ground back in 1989 when Don and Aleyne Keen opened this neighborhood spot on East Boulevard. Soon they were roasting their own beans in small batches of the best coffees sourced from around the world. Their Dilworth Espresso Traditional and Breakfast blends achieved a legendary status among Charlotte coffee enthusiasts. In 2011, Dilworth Coffee joined forces with Raleigh-based roaster Stockton Graham & Co., which continues to roast the distinctive Dilworth blends. In addition to the original location in Kenilworth Commons, you can find Dilworth Coffeehouses at SouthPark Mall, in Matthews and at the Shoppes at Highland Creek.
Jackson's Java
8640 University City Blvd.
Charlotte, NC 28213
(704) 548-1133
Jackson's Java opened in 1994 and immediately became a favorite hangout for the UNC-Charlotte community. Coffees are roasted in a small-batch roaster in the shop, creating a delicious aroma that both soothes and stimulates. Six different types of freshly ground coffee, plus espresso, a wide selection of teas and smoothies, are served daily, as well as pastries and desserts, house-made fudge, ice cream and bottles of wine. More than just a coffeehouse, Jackson's is a community center, hosting poetry nights, live music and complimentary wifi.
Mugs Coffee
Park Selwyn Terrace
5126 Park Road, Suite 1D
Charlotte, NC 28209
(704) 733-9014
Conveniently located on Park Road, Mugs is a locally owned, independent coffeehouse dedicated to serving the community. Numerous meetings, open mics and game nights are held here, and the walls display works by local artists. The coffee served at Mugs comes from the Magnolia Coffee Company, a Charlotte-based artisan roaster specializing in small batches of beans harvested in a socially conscious manner. Try the Dreamlands Blend. Magnolia donates 10 percent of all in-state sales to the North Carolina Wildlife Federation.

Not Just Coffee Shop
7th Street Market
224 E. 7th St.
Charlotte, NC 28202
(704) 817-3868
This coffeebar inside the 7th Street Market offers a handcrafted espresso and pour-over coffee experience. For each cup of coffee, the beans are ground individually, then bloomed by soaking them briefly in warm water (a method said to reduce bitterness), before a thin stream of hot water is poured over them, a process that takes nearly four minutes. Beans come from several Direct Trade sources including Counter Culture Coffee in Durham. The bar's small size offers customers a more intimate relationship with the expert baristas who host frequent "cuppings" of single origin and estate-grown beans from top coffee-producing areas around the world. A second Not Just Coffee is located in South End's Atherton Mill Market.
Smelly Cat Coffeehouse
514 E. 36th St.
Charlotte, NC 28205
(704) 374-9656
Set in the heart of NoDa's entertainment district, this a favorite neighborhood hangout with a loyal following attracted by the vegetarian-friendly menu, frequent live music, cat décor and free wifi. The Smelly Cat recently joined the micro-roaster movement with the installation of a one-ton, bright-red Probat drum roaster, used to roast small batches of premium beans. The freshly roasted and ground coffee is available prepared a number of ways, including pour-over, drip, cold brew and French press. A half-dozen different fresh coffees are available each day, along with teas, chais, milkshakes, frappes and a variety of pastries and other goodies.

Everyone tells me horror stories about childbirth. Should I ask them to stop?
Since the day I found out I was pregnant, women have been telling me horror stories about childbirth. I've heard things that would make your toes curl. I try to ignore them, but some accounts scare me to the point of tears. This is my first pregnancy and I don't know what to expect from the delivery. Why do people feel the need to share their most awful birth experiences instead of the joyous ones?

I really wanted a natural childbirth and found unsolisited advise to be counterintuitive. I decided to seek out women who had suceeded in a medication free childbirth and learn all I could. I did have to have labor induced as she was running out of ambiotic fluid, but with the amazing support of my husband, and knowing that it was possible, our little girl was born beautifully. The nurses indicated to us that they saw quite a drastic difference between mothers and babies who had used drugs and those that hadn't, while other babies were fussing and mothers feeling detatched, we were well rested and content soon after birth. It wasn't a walk in the park, but worth it and I know I can do it again, though I am hoping this time it will go even smoother. Your body has never used these muscles before. Anyway that you get your baby here is the right way. It is good to research and learn about all possiblities so you are prepared, but also know what you want and plan for it.posted 01/17/2008 by Zephirablue
Having a picture in your mind helps. For me I also went natural and I kept visualizing that I was in the Whittier Tunnel (local thing). Its a tunnel near here that I hate going through because its so long but as soon as you see the light coming through the other side there's this huge feeling of relief. So I imagined I was going through this tunnel and I could see the light at the end and I had to push to get there. Because I had that image in my mind it kept me occupied and calm. A friend of mine said her visual was to image a cold cord coming out of her belly button and winding up into the air. The concept is the same.posted 01/16/2008 by Dione Weatherman
I'm with you about the overshare of the horror stories. Listening to the stories I kept expecting that when I went into labor I would know because I'd feel an unbearable amount of pain and there'd be a lot of sweating and screaming. So when I finally went into labor I didn't know I was. I decided to go in because my stomach kept tightening every 8 minutes and my back hurt. When I got there I was already dilated to 7 and well on my way. My birth plan was natural but even if I'd opted for medication there wouldn't have been time. A lot of it has to do with pain tolerance and frame of mind. I went in with the mindframe that I wasn't going to be one of the screamers. Meanwhile in the room next door there was a lady screaming like she was being ripped apart and she was only dilated to 3. The worst I felt was during crowning and it felt like a bad rug burn, no pun intended. I've talked to several others who also described it that way.posted 01/16/2008 by Dione Weatherman
It really does bother me when women find out your are expecting and then share their horror story with you. It is one thing if you ask them to share, but to just share that is annoying. Especially for first time mom's, they might already have a lot of worries and concerns and they do not want to hear the worst case scenario every time they turn around. I am in my second pregnancy, having a planned c-section Feb 5 and I never volunteer information about my experiences unless I am asked.posted 01/16/2008 by beka1975
this is my thrid baby and i have all good exprinces in the past the ony thing i would suggest is dont listen ato most of them and like some one eles said educate your self on all the diffrent things about labour and delviry it will help you feel more relaxed i whis that ihad done that with my first but other then that most people think there helping but they are not just smile and nood and be an informatuon junky on the subject it will help you relaxposted 01/16/2008 by ambercrouse
I'm carrying my third, and by now, I've heard all the horror stories imaginable. But I've also had two wonderful births under my belt, and I'm looking forward to another. Don't let bitter women spoil one of the best times in your life. The ones who have nothing good to say also tend to be the type who see their children as a bother, or an inconvenience. Those of us who cherish our children are willing to go through whatever it takes for their sake, and I would gladly deliver many more. It is so brief and trust me - when you look back, your mind will "forget" some of the details. While you're going through it, you're so focused on what you're about to have, it isn't what you would expect. Take heart. My friend wore a pin in the last couple of months that said "If you have a scary delivery story, please don't tell me - my baby can hear you". I think all expectant moms should get one of those to ward off these inconsiderate people!posted 01/16/2008 by 207mommy
i think that women tell their horror stories because its a triumphant moment. " i made it through all that pain, im amazing" not meant to scare you. but also to prepare you for what may happen to you dont be scared they want you to be prepared. emergency c sections, no time for pain medications, pain urinating afterward all true and may happen, but the stories point is simple. i had a beautiful baby whom i love. so be hapy. everything will be ok!!!posted 01/06/2008 by regina1985
i know how you feel. my boyfriends mother told me to just go ahead and listen, unless it REALLY bugs you, but take into concideration that everyones child birth experiences are completly different. be prepared for anything but know that no one can predict how your labor and delivery will be!posted 12/24/2007 by robbyswifey2008
I am also a first time mom, going to deliver in June, and I've seen alot of negativity as well. My advice would be to talk to your doctor about your fears & anything that is bothering you. I'm sure they can give you the real deal on how often that scary thing happens (probably VERY rarely) OR it is something that can be managed. But childbirth can be dramatic, and let's face it, alot of people like to tell dramatic stories or hear them:) I would say the best thing is to just keep an open mind, that is what I'm trying to do. I'm not going in with "I'm definitely having an epidural" or "I'm going all natural" mentality. Because we all just kinda have to wing it the first time. I would just listen to your own self, and take your concerns to those that matter most to you and to your doc so you can lay your fears aside and lean on the people that will support you.posted 12/18/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
I agree! I have a friend who got pregnant after me, but she was able to carry to term, while I had 2 miscarriages. By the time I finally got pregnant & it stuck, she was wracking up horror stories about how awful certain parts were. She didn't consider the fact that I'd already been pregnant twice and lost the baby - a very difficult thing on its own. Every time she was tired, grumpy, etc she'd complain. Then she & her husband went to child-birth classes. You'd think she wrote the book on pregnancy & delivery. She started telling me how they do it this way and that way, etc. I have a very up-front mom & several aunts who're very open & honest about their experiences as well. I would counter my friend's horror stories w/ their experiences (I have a cousin & niece that are just 20 months old), but she'd be convinced that things had changed since my family's experience. She finally delivered & tells horror stories too. I just ignore her. I know it'll be bad, but its worth it for the baby!posted 12/18/2007 by BiologyBrain

Windows 8 interface's design heritage
Summary: Microsoft's new Windows 8 interface, formerly known as Metro, is a clear break from the ageing desktop metaphor. Is it the industry's way forward, or just confusing brand differentiation? Either way, it's got design-history cred.

"The Swiss School [also known as the International Style] arose early last century, and really it was mainly in print media, posters and advertising, book covers, stuff like that," Morris said.
"The premise behind this design movement was that if we just show the information in an authentic way, that is beautiful unto itself."
The Helvetica typeface, designed to be readable at many different sizes, came from this movement, as well as the use of text to visually communicate an information heirarchy.
(Bauhaus typography image by Jan Tschichold, public domain)
The Bauhaus school's catchphrase was "form follows function" or, as Morris explained it, "If a sufficient and elegant design is the minimal design necessary to deliver the purpose."
Decoration was considered unnecessary.
(Credit: Saul Bass/MGM)
A key inspiration for Microsoft's new visual style were the film title sequences created by Saul Bass, in particular those for movies like North By Northwest.
"In the olden days, we designed a series of static screens or windows, and we string them together in our user interface. We now have the ability, both in terms of the platform capabilities and also with the design tools that we have available, to start thinking much more carefully about how things move about on the page," Morris said.
"The great power of animation, of motion design, is that it leverages the way we naturally process information in the real world."

Recently - I think since installing the latest drivers - users have been unable to change the default pen settings, e.g. to make them thinner. I have tried with my administrative account, and also cannot do it, so it isn't a permissions thing. Any suggestions?
Thinking it could be XP SP3 which clobbered this, if it isn't the drivers. Could someone with SP3 check to see if they can change pen sizes for me...

The traditional view of individual brain areas involved in perception of different sensory stimulii.e., one brain region involved in hearing and another involved in seeinghas been thrown into doubt in recent years. A new study published in the online open access journal BMC Neuroscience, shows that, in monkeys, the region involved in hearing can directly improve perception in the visual region, without the involvement of other structures to integrate the senses.
Integration of sensory stimuli has traditionally been thought of as hierarchical, involving brain areas that receive signals from distinct areas of the brain layer known as the cortex that recognise different stimuli. But the recent finding of nerve cells projecting from the auditory cortex (associated with the perception of sound) directly into the visual cortex (associated with sight), suggest that perception of one sense might affect that of another without the involvement of higher brain areas.
"Auditory or visualauditory responses in the primary visual cortex are highly probable given the presence of direct projections from the primary auditory cortex", explain P. Barone and colleagues from the Centre for Brain and Cognition Research, Toulouse, France. "We looked for modulation of the neuronal visual responses in the primary visual cortex by auditory stimuli in an awake monkey."
The researchers recorded the neuronal responses with microelectrodes inserted directly into the primary visual cortex of a rhesus macaque. The monkey was then required to orient its gaze towards a visual stimulus. The time taken for the neurons in the visual cortex to respond to the stimulus, or latency, was recorded. Barone and colleagues then measured the latency when the visual stimulus was accompanied by a sound emanating from the same spot. When the visual signal was strongi.e., high contrastthe auditory stimulus did not affect latency; however, if the visual signal was weakeri.e., low contrastlatency decreased by 5-10%, suggesting that in some way the auditory stimulus speeds up the response to the visual stimulus.
"Our findings show that single neurons from one primary sensory cortex can integrate information from another sensory modality", the researchers claim. They propose that the auditory cue is processed more quickly than the visual stimulus, and because the monkeys have learned to associate that sound and sight, the visual cortex is primed to perceive the weaker signal. "Our results argue against a strict hierarchical model of sensory integration in the brain and that integration of multiple senses should be added to the list of functions of the primary visual cortex."
