Hot air balloon rides shatter the stork community's monopoly on carrying humans in baskets. Democratize the skies with this Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $299 for a semiprivate hot air balloon ride package for two ($558 value)
- $585 for a semiprivate hot air balloon ride package for four (a $1,116 value)
- $869 for a private hot air balloon ride package for six (a $1,674 value)<p>
Held at sunrise and sunset seven days a week, the one-hour hot-air- balloon flights float over hills and sparkling lakes. Pilots helm each trip while passengers make champagne toasts and nosh on either a morning spread of baked goods and orange juice or an evening champagne snack tray. After their flight, passengers take home a photo of the balloon for framing, and 48 hours after landing, they can also download souvenir pictures of their adventure. Call ahead to make a reservation.
Air Ventures
A champagne toast signifies luxury, but Air Ventures provides an even more luxurious amenity—champagne toasts conducted while floating in midair. Customers sip from bottles of bubbly while on one of the company's hot-air-balloon rides, which float over Chester County's rolling hills, glistening lakes, and historic estates at either sunrise or sunset. The rainbow-hued balloon's trips range from one-hour jaunts to flight packages with overnight inn stops. After their airborne adventures, passengers take home a souvenir picture of the balloon, which they can supplement with downloaded shots of their own tour.

Alex Denman, 37, is show manager at RHS Chelsea Flower Show. She lives near Windsor with her husband Neil, a fund manager.
The build-up to the Chelsea Flower Show is intense – we only have 19 days to build 500 exhibitions – so my team and I decamp to a hotel close to the show. When my alarm goes off at 5.15am, I shower and get dressed in jeans and boots – the showground is basically a building site during the construction phase, so I'm surrounded by diggers and dirt. My background is horticulture so my remit is to look after all the exhibitions, with responsibility for finding new designers and sponsors and making sure that everything looks its best.
I start planning 15 months in advance of the annual show in May – we get three times as many applications as we have space for, so they are selected by a panel of experts. We're really excited about working with Stylist and Nikki Tibbles to create the stunning magazine cover display that will appear at the show this year. We've never done anything like it before and the detail is just incredible. Other highlights include garden designer Jo Thompson' 'staycation' garden featuring a Fifties caravan and pretty British countryside planting. And Trailfinders garden, presented by Fleming's which is a modern Sydney-inspired backyard with an outdoor shower, pizza oven and plunge pool.
I have breakfast with my team on site at 7.30am – during the rest of the year when I'm based in my office, I have Weetabix but during the building phase I often succumb to the show's infamous breakfast of crumpets with Marmite and raspberry jam with cheddar cheese on top. My days are spent working with my team to solve problems – for example, one exhibitor may have planned their garden with a 1.2 metre high boundary, while the exhibit next door has planned it to be two metres high. This year my biggest concern is weather – we have a bore hole so won't be affected by the drought but if the soil gets wet it's a nightmare to move
This year my biggest concern is weather – if the soil becomes wet it's a nightmare to move
Every exhibit has to be completed by the Sunday night ahead of the opening press day on Monday, so we often work until midnight to get everything perfect. Because I'm so exhausted it's easy to slip into bad eating habits – my team and I loved it when my husband Neil brought KFC for us one night last year. Press day is the busiest day – we have 1,200 of the world's media focusing on us and it's so thrilling to see gardening making front page news. I do various interviews for radio, TV and the official DVD and then after the press leave at 3pm, we welcome the Queen and royal family for their private viewing. Last year I was in the party that showed Prince Philip round, which was really exciting. The RHS is a charity so at 7pm we host our major fundraiser, a gala preview evening with canapés and champagne for 5,000 guests.
While the VIPs are safely tucked away at the party, my team and I get together for a casual dinner. At that point it feels like we've finished the show as we've done as much as we possibly can to get it ready, even though we haven't opened to the public.
The next day the medals are announced – I love seeing the designers' faces when they win – before the doors open at 8am to our 35,000 visitors daily. During show week I deal with any problems that arise, but my main focus is next year's event so I meet with designers and sponsors and attend networking events.
I'm often at work until 11pm but throughout the rest of the year I typically leave work at 5.30pm. When I get home in the evening I love getting my hands dirty in my garden. It's very British-country style – I love it at this time of the year when the apple blossoms are out. I find gardening really therapeutic; I've noticed that my stress levels have dropped greatly since we got our own plot.
Neil and I enjoy cooking and try to use vegetables and herbs that we grow ourselves before going to bed at 10pm. We're so busy during the week that we often don't get the chance to see friends so we catch up with them at the weekend. Everyone thinks that my job is all about plants but it's not – for me, the highlight is the people.

Legal access to sunshine is an extremely important consideration, especially in a city or other densely populated area. Who owns your sunlight? Surprise! In many parts of the United States, you don't necessarily own your sunlight.
I did not get any easements, conveyable or otherwise, from my previous neighbors when I installed my 1.3 kW array in 1998. I had excellent solar access, which was one of the main reasons I bought a PV system. But in 2006, the house next door (14 feet away) was demolished and replaced with one that is five times larger and three times taller (it would have been four times taller if I had not complained loudly to the building department in a moment of unhappiness). Now, I have shade instead of sunlight and was told by city, county, and state officials that they sympathized, but I was out of luck. My only options were to sue (but I was told I would lose—wish I had tried anyway), or I could move my PV array at my expense. For a news story on my situation, see bit.ly/WinfieldNews.
Robert Winfield • via homepower.com
Robert's cautionary tale warns us to make sure that we have the right solar access before installing solar. Using solar can get caught in the tension between one person's rights infringing on another's. As for who owns their access to the sun, it depends on where they are.
Some areas guarantee solar access to property owners by limiting buildings and vegetation on adjacent properties. When I installed my first solar energy systems in Ashland, Oregon, I registered the locations of my solar hot water collectors and photovoltaic array with the city, which informed my neighbors that they could not plant any new vegetation that might eventually block my solar access.
For my home solar systems in Washington, D.C., my solar access was coincidentally protected, as I live in a designated historic district that prevents building taller structures. The townhouse to the south is the same height as mine.
Solar access can also be guaranteed by deed restriction or easement, similar to those for protecting ocean-view properties. Such legal instruments may have been placed by the original developer or later in private transactions with payment or other consideration.
If your home is at too much risk of losing solar access—or doesn't have it now—you may still be able to reap the benefits of solar energy. Legislation is pending in Congress that would allow homeowners to receive the 30% federal renewable energy tax credit for investing in community PV projects within 50 miles of their homes. For billing purposes, a utility would treat the electricity from your remote PV system as if it were on your house.
For complete listings of solar access, easement, and rights laws and regulations, see dsireusa.org.

SAN JOSE — Three matches in the SAP Open's early session Thursday went a full three sets, none more compelling and dramatic than the last.
More than two hours after it began, third-seeded Sam Querrey finally survived Lleyton Hewitt's upset bid when the Australian double faulted on match point.
Hewitt challenged the call, something he did often in the match. But the ruling stood as Querrey advanced to the quarterfinals at HP Pavilion with a 7-6 (6), 1-6, 7-6 (4) victory over the former No. 1-ranked player in the world.
The match had many twists and turns as it stretched well into what was supposed to be the first hour of the night session, which featured the tournament's two-time defending champion Milos Raonic against Michael Russell.
Querrey, ranked 20th, began his match in dominating fashion, overpowering Hewitt to win the first three games in a matter of minutes. But once Hewitt started to get a read on Querrey's 130-plus mph servers, it was as if the clock rolled back 10 or so years.
Instead of looking like the 118th-ranked player that he now is, Hewitt, 31, started to resemble the player he was when he outlasted Andre Agassi in a three-set thriller to win the San Jose tournament in 2002.
"Lleyton is so much better than his ranking," Querrey said. "To get through that makes me feel really good and confident."
Hewitt began dictating the points with his all-out style, giving himself multiple chances to take the first set as the games stretched longer and longer.
But facing two set points in the tiebreaker, Querrey blasted a forehand winner and then Hewitt hit a backhand long. Querrey won the next two points as well, one on a 136-mph ace, to close out the set.
"I won 12 of the first 14 points but I was just getting used to the surroundings in there," Querrey said. "It was my first match in there. It takes a little bit to see and he started to get a little read on my serve and I was starting to get a little sloppy. Fortunately, I snuck through that tiebreaker."
But after Querrey won the first set, Hewitt kept charging. He cruised through the second set to force the dramatic conclusion.
"He hits a tough ball," Querrey said, "because it stays so low. It's hard to really attack it and do a lot with it. I stuck with it, won a couple of long points. I thought it was a pretty high-quality match. He served really well. I served well. In the end, a couple of double faults separated the match."
The third set was tight and tense as neither player put a dent in the other's serve.
It ultimately came down to a tiebreaker, which Querrey started with a 137-mph ace — his 20th and final one of the match.
The tiebreaker stayed on serve until Hewitt double faulted to trail 4-2. The match ended five points later when Hewitt double faulted again.
The victory was Querrey's first in three matches against Hewitt and continued a recent roll for the 25-year-old American. Querrey is 7-2 this season and recently led the U.S. to a victory over Brazil in Davis Cup, winning both his matches.
"This is probably my best start to a year in my career," Querrey said.
Earlier Thursday, No. 6 seed Denis Istomin defeated Benjamin Becker 6-3, 6-7 (5), 6-2, and No. 8 seed Xavier Malisse rallied to defeat Matthew Ebden 5-7, 7-5, 7-6 (1).
The early session also included victories by American wildcard Steve Johnson and Alejandro Falla.

FORMER pupils recalled bygone memories and rekindled old friendships when St Gabriel's RC High School staged a day of celebration to mark its diamond anniversary.
A mass was held in the school hall with more than 350 people attending.
Joining in the 60th anniversary celebrations at the school in Bridge Road, Bury, were past headteachers Eddie Robinson and Paul Hopkins, while other dignitaries, including Bury's deputy mayor, Cllr Sharon Briggs, attended.
Mass was celebrated by the Bishop of Salford, the Rt Rev Terence Brain, together with all the parish priests of the borough, and the school orchestra and choir were praised for their performances.
Following mass, guests went to the dining room where the parent teacher association (PTA) reminded everyone of school dinner puddings of old, with Manchester tart and cornflake cake two of many served up.
In the evening, 300 people were welcomed to Bury Town Hall with Martin Kay acting as the master of ceremonies. The past was remembered by David Willis, one of the original first year entrants in 1954. Deputy headmaster Adam Loster, who has served at the school for 39 years, gave the official thanks to the guests, the school leadership team, PTA and volunteer helpers.
One of the many successes of the evening was the launch of the Friends of St Gabriel's which involves past pupils, staff and supporters uniting to keep in touch, and anyone interested in joining is asked to contact the school for further details.
Mr Loster said the celebration was a major event in the school's history and showed the "strength of the St Gabriel's family".
He added: "It has been a wonderful day and I feel very proud for everyone involved — the school staff and governors, past pupils and families and, of course, everyone involved in pulling things together. A great St Gabriel's team effort and a brilliant, brilliant day."

Sadly, my husband lost his father last year and his mother several years before. We recently received our portion of the estate (he is one of several siblings) and we have had it in our checking account for several months because we don't know what to do with it...
Here is our financial background. We have three kids - the oldest will start college in 7 years.
We own our house, but have a large mortgage payment because of the real estate costs in the area we live - there are several expensive home improvements that would make sense ie finishing the basement, getting a new deck, etc.
We paid cash for our cars both of which have about 50,000 miles on them.
We have done a decent job of saving for retirement.
We have no debt other than our mortgage and have saved some though not nearly what we will need to pay for our kids to go to college (esp if they go out of state or to a private college)
Prior to receiving this money we had a 6 month emergency fund.
I make some money each year doing freelance, but plan to have a pt job starting a year from next fall when my youngest begins kinder.
Thanks if you are still reading - what would you do with inherited money in this sort of situation? Save for retirement or college? Or make a home improvement? It seems stupid to have it sitting in our checking account.
The adage goes something like this, "You can borrow for college, but you can't borrow for retirement". It's wonderful that you are in such a sound financial position. ANd it sounds like you are taking your time figuring out what to do. I'd be interested to hear other advice, don't have too much time this morning to compose a thoughtful reply, I've got two little ones running around my feet!
Here's what I would do - I would pay down the mortgage and have it re-cast, saving you money every month for the life of the loan. Not only will you likely save hundreds of dollars in interest each month, you'll have a smaller payment which will give you a leg up on all of your other goals (retirement, college, etc).
A re-cast is when the mortgage company (for a small fee - $200 or so) recalculates the mortgage after a lump sum has been paid to it. It spreads the new balance over the same period, making your payments smaller.
As for the kids college fund, there are many ways to go for low to no money, and considering the massive education debt problem our country has right now, it is worth investigating these. Check out Debt Free U - an awesome book on how to get a debt-free education without help from your parents.
I would only recast if you're in the first 10 years of a 30 year mortgage. Otherwise, recasting means that they take the remaining balance and restart the clock at a 30 year term. If you can get them to recast over the existing remaining term (so let's say you're on year 11 of a 30 year and therefore have 19 years left, if you could make a lump sum payment and recast over 19--or even 20--years) which is not a traditional recast. But these are questions you may want to ask.
If the improvements you'd be making on the house would improve the property value and bring it up to the playing field of your neighborhood because your house is outdated in a way that makes it the crappiest house in the 'hood--then yeah, I would probably do that before recasting the loan. In fact, I would spend the $200-$300 to have a licensed appraiser come in to do an appraisal for you personally and talk to them about exactly what would increase the value and to what amount. That would be money well spent.
I wouldn't invest in the kids college funds. There are too many other things to do.
And after all of that, I would start researching the options to invest in something that will provide passive income. Hey--if all your financial ducks are pretty much in a row, you have a golden opportunity. Our family's goal is to replace dh's income from his job with passive income (money you earn without going to a job) in the next 15 years. It's a very aggressive goal, but it would supply us with retirement income in addition to whatever else. How you invest your money to make that happen will depend on a number of things--including your comfort level with the different options. If you read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" (that book with that title--not the countless others in the series) it will help you understand this mental shift to making your money work for you vs. you working for the money.

You can recast without resetting the term of the loan.Wells Fargo will let you recast without a fee any time you have $5000 or more to put in.
yes, recasts do not start the term over, generally.
I would not improve the home to increase the value. This does not help you toward any of your stated goals - though it may increase your enjoyment of the home, which does have value. Housing prices are STILL falling according to all metrics - though I suppose they are a bit more stable in the DC-area than elsewhere.
By paying down your mortgage you reduce an expense (interest) so you have additional income to use for other goals. Well -good luck and let us know what you decide.
Do you like your house? Do you have plans to stay there awhile? How you handle the mortgage and/or home improvements would greatly depend on your housing plans over the next few years, IMO.
My risk tolerance is fairly high, so I would have moved that money awhile ago. I would divide it, giving some to a few priorities in varying degrees. First, for me, would be retirement...max out any IRAs and/or 401k. Second, would be the house...so many options and they largely depend on future plans. Third, I would invest the majority.
Depending on how much money you received, it may be wise to talk to a professional.
"Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless." - Mother Teresa
Fund your retirement first. Pay off some of your house debt next. Consider making the home improvements you want as the "fun" You have a lot of options for college funding.
Thanks all! That makes so much sense about retirement - we just aren't sure about the best way to invest for retirement outside of work 401ks.
The comment about bring the house up to the neighborhood is a good one - our house is 22 years old in a large neighborhood (probably about 750) houses and only a handful don't have finished basements - we will take a real hit if we try to sell this house with the basement unfinished. We only bought the house a couple of years ago - waaaay below market (like $100,000) because it was a fixer upper and we did the major repairs ourselves - we also brought a fair amount of equity because it is our third house (bought them all low and lived in them for several years while we fixed them) I actually don't want to pay off this house ever - I know it sounds weird, but we like to write off the interest on our taxes and we only plan to be here for another 15 years and then when all of the kids are out of school we will downsize and hopefully move to a lower col area. That being said our current mortgage rate is 5.25 and your posts have made me think that maybe I should look into a refinance - lowering our mortgage payment a few hundred dollars a month would be a huge help...
So what would you put retirement money in outside of a 401k - like a Roth or reg IRA?
I have read that keeping a mortgage just to save the taxes doesn't actually make any financial sense. You are wasting more money on interest than you are saving on taxes.
That is probably true about the taxes. I guess the bigger issue is that we only want to live here for 15 more years and we would have to give up saving in so many other areas to pay off the mortgage that quickly. We keep paying to build equity with the point of having enough equity to buy something smaller and in a less expensive area when we don't have kids at home. We won't need the full equity from this house to buy a small rowhouse or condo. Does that make sense?

When I bought a Christmas tree at Lazy Lay Acres in Pasco County on Sunday, I not only got the expected benefits of shopping at a locally owned business — courtesy, service, the warm glow of handing money over to a neighbor rather than a distant corporation — I also got more bang (way, way more it turned out) for my buck.
Let's compare.
The Lowe's in Spring Hill charges $34.97 for a 7-foot Fraser fir. Not bad. In fact, the buying power of big-box hardware stores has brought down the price of trees in recent years, said Jewel A. Lay, 74, and cut deeply into business at his farm off Saint Joe Road.
A decade ago, lines of waiting cars often stretched a quarter-mile down his sandy driveway; on Sunday there was no line, and it was Lay and his crew who waited for customers.
But I paid $65 for a tree that was conservatively measured at 14 feet — less than twice the price of the Lowe's fir for a tree more than twice as tall. And with five or maybe even 10 times the mass.
The Lowe's tree I could pick up with one hand.
I needed, on the other hand, the help of three workers to cut down the Lazy Lay tree and load it on a trailer pulled by a utility cart. They used a hydraulic lift on the front of a John Deere tractor to unload it; they drew it through a circle of plastic netting, encasing it like a giant sausage, with a winch mounted on a four-wheeler.
When Lay's daughter, Leslee Rose, 49, started taking pictures, I realized I was like a fisherman who had returned to the dock with a 200-pound tarpon. A spectacle. Yes, she said, it was the biggest one they'd sold all season.
Which is when I started to think: Maybe too big.
I'd wanted a tree tall enough to fill our house's two-story entrance and had bought big cedars at Lazy Lay in previous years.
But, looking back, I realized they were probably more like 12 feet than 15.
They did not dwarf my Ford Focus to the point where — to stay with the sausage comparison — it resembled the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. The weight of the previous trees didn't push the wheel wells down over the top of the tires. My sons were never quite as amazed by their size.
"Oh, my God," my oldest one said on Sunday. "That tree is a beast!"
Yes, that is exactly what it is.
At home, I whittled the trunk with a chain saw to fit it into the stand. My wife, two sons, father-in-law and I, helped by a teenage neighbor, worked like the flag-raisers on Iwo Jima to stand the tree upright — only to watch the legs of the stand collapse and the tree slump against the stairway.
It has been there ever since, imposing on our lives like a giant, sleeping bear.
We walk sideways up the stairs to avoid the branches that jut through the banister spindles, and we hug the walls of the entryway to pass from the kitchen to the living room. I feel twinges of guilt anticipating the tragic waste that usually comes from trying to tame something wild and magnificent.
That, partly, has kept me from taking the obvious remedy: cutting 3 or 4 feet from the base. Also, I hate to remove what I've paid for; $65 for a 12-foot tree wouldn't be quite such a great bargain.
But if I do, eventually, take this option, I'll still have the previously mentioned benefits of doing business with a local.
The trip to Lazy Lay — and, often, to refuel afterward at Pancho Villa's Mexican restaurant in San Antonio — has created a family Christmas tradition, never easy in Florida. The cedars or sand pines we cut, likewise, connect this Northern holiday to the South.
For the price of the tree, you also get access to the petting zoo at Lazy Lay, which my middle school kids still love, and the run of about 60 acres of farmland. My sons and their friend spent most of the time Sunday pelting one another with undersized, volunteer watermelons they picked from one of the Lay's fields.
Lay and his crew, "all of them family or friends," didn't seem to mind at all.
Try that in the parking lot at Lowe's.


text: I had a Brynna in my class and she pronounced it with a short E sound. I would probably pronounce Bryna with the short I sound. Just a little flustered why this makes sense with this name, but everyone wants to pronounce Alyna with a long I or long e. That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

BizJet International, Lufthansa Technik's Tulsa, Okla.-based U.S. subsidiary, has received its first Airbus A318 Elite from Europe. The delivery marks the beginning of a planned takeover of Elite completions from Lufthansa Technik's facility in Hamburg, Germany. The first aircraft is scheduled to be delivered back to Airbus in the fall with an FAA and EASA STC. BizJet invested about $3 million in expanding its infrastructure, upgrading facilities, retraining employees and purchasing new equipment. The company currently has firm orders for six A318 Elite completions. According to a Lufthansa Technik spokesman, the demand for VIP and executive jets has increased so much in recent years that the completion center in Hamburg could no longer keep up with the orders. Lufthansa Technik has completed and delivered seven A318 Elites at the Hamburg facility so far, with one more currently in process. Two more Elites will be finished by the middle of next year, after which the project will be turned over completely to BizJet. A second A318 Elite completion line will be added at BizJet later next year.

CEL Office Resources
Academic Resources on Campus. The first time I heard about them was during my first campus tour; and to be honest I kind of tossed that information aside. Thankfully, however, during my Student Ambassador training I was reminded again of the academic resources offered on campus; such as tutoring in certain areas that you are struggling with, proofreading papers, and help with student resumesl!
I had no idea how much I was missing out until I went into the CEL Office (Center for Experimental Learning) to asked them for help on my resume. The office detailed different things that I should focus on that I had not thought about before. Now every Thursday and Tuesday I attend CEL Topics in Covell at 4-5 p.m. and the Center for Experimental Learning helps me work on my resume and update and fix it, they help me work on applications for jobs, etc.
I am not the only one that goes to these wonderful sessions, there are students attending that are applying for grad school or working on applications for internships. They were beyond helpful and always willing to help anyone who walks through the door.
Dora Gallegos, is amazing and knows what she is talking about. I am confident now when I apply anywhere because I have the help of the CEL office staff who are constantly encouraging me to work hard and be on top of my game. If you ever need help in looking for an internship, applying for a job, practicing for a job interview, or writing a resume, head over to the CEL Office located in Hendren Hall. :)

I've gone with MSDOS for the partition table.
I'm partitioning the drives now, so someone please remind me what size I should use for the debian installation and allowing for updates, as well as space needed for SWAP and RAM?
Thank you so much.

Partitioning - one for /, one for /var one for /home - you will need a small one for /boot. and another one that will be used for the swap file. Rule of thumbv used to be double the size of RAM, but IMHO that is a bit ott - probably equal to ram size will be fine. That is on the system disk. You then want a mount point(s) for the storage disc - how you partition that is really a matter of preference - and each partition can have its own mount pount in thye filesystem.

Okay, thanks for that.
Code:100MB for boot partition, 4GB for SWAP partition 20GB for / Not sure about /home or /var.
I did 100mb for /boot, 10gb for /, 3gb for /var and 3gb for swap. This is with ubuntu server and I have had no problems. You do not need to do separate /home, just mount the rest of the space in a subfolder within the home folder and put all your files there
How would I go about doing that?
If I create the following partitions:
/boot @ 100MB
/var @20GB
/tmp @ 10GB
Debian is installed in "/"? What is the difference between that and /boot?
Please could you also tell me what specifically is the need for /usr?

20 Gb is probably too much for / Sim's layout sounds about right.
Remember that the file system is not hard drive centric (unlike windows). As a user do you care where the physical location of the data is? For all you care, it can be on any disk, on a lan, or using iSCSI, anywhere on the internet. Of course as the admin - you do care, because it is imporrtant to know what to back up. Remeber you - as a computer/system owner, have two roles - one as admin - where you will use rootly privileges, and one as user, when you will only need low priviliges.
So to go back to your question. about /home. Yoiu may get the option to define /home as part of the set up, but if not, or as a general principle, how do you add a hard drive to the file system?
Let us say you want to add /music to your file system. You add the mountpoint /music using the mkdir command from /. Do once you have a terminal window open with rootly privilges.
These ommands are for Fedora - ubmtu shouldn't be that different - but check!!!
cd /
mkdir music
ls -l
This will list all the directories and files in / and you should see music. Note that this does not exist anywhere - it is a mountpoint on the file system.
Now let us say that you have a partition on drive sdb. The first partition will be sdb1. you can mount this using the command in generic terms "mount something somewhere"
mount /dev/sdb1 /music (you might need a few options there)
Now if you go to /music - you will see the files.
If you want that mounted automatically you need to edit a config file, in fedora it is /etc/fstab
so using a text editor (I generally use vim)
vim /etc/fstab
and enter a line like this....
/dev/hda7 /mnt/windows ntfs-3g auto,user 0 0
This is acually a line from my fstab file and it means
auto mount at start up partition 7 on device hda at mount point /mnt/windows and recognise it as an ntfs partition.
Again read up on fstab (use command man fstab) to see how to add entries.
This is another entry
/dev/system/var /var ext3 defaults 1 2
Here /dev/system/var is part of a logical volume called var on a logical group called system. (The logical group consists of several partitions on a drive - or could be many drives)
So I mount at start up an ext3 filesystem at mountpoint /var the partition /dev/system/var
Note how neat this is - I have different file systems mounted on the same tree. As a user I neither know (nor care) what the file systems are, or where they are, I just use them. Even neater, you can mount the same partition at different mountpoints if you want to - bu beware, if you have a partition mounted, and you mount something else at the same mountpoint, the first set of files will be inaccessible until the second file system is unmounted - but you could mount that first filesystem somewhere else.
If it all sounds a bit confusing, remeber that the centerwe of the world is not the hard drive - it is the file system. Windows has tried to achieve that with a desktop centric view - the desktop contains hard drive partitions, but to my mind it is a bit of a kludge - but if it helps you to grasp the concept, think of it in that way - but it is really better than that.

*Jaw drop"
Thanks for that very complicated explanation
When creating the partitions, is the primary partition "/"? and the logical "/boot"? I'm assuming that Debian will install to "/" and not "/boot".
I'm guessing that the primary partition is "/" as this is the root for Debian.
I'm now on this screen:
Do I keep the file system mentioned above? Are these settings okay?Code:[!!] Partition Disks Partition settings: Use as: Ext3 journaling file system Mount point: / Mount options: defaults Label: / Reserved blocks 20GB Typical useage: standard Bootable flag: off Copy data from another partition Delete the partition Done setting up the partition <Go Back>
Will I need to choose any other settings for the other partitions?
Thank you, is that the right partition system to use?

The title is a bit of a misnomer, as Bougereau's painting doesn't purport depict Venus' birth but rather her emergence from the shell that transported her from the sea to Paphos in Cyprus.

Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
Hi. I'm online and happy to answer your question today.
What you are describing is consistent with ocular migraines, a condition that I not only treat in my office but that I have been dealing with personally for decades.
A typical migraine headache starts with shimmering lights, often times they surround a blurry area or have dots or jaggedly lines associated with them. They tend to progressively increase in intensity and sometimes march across the visual field causing difficulty with reading. Many times this is then accompanied by nausea, irritability, sensitivity to bright lights and/or loud noises. After the onset of the lights (called scintillating scotomas), the headache typically starts and the light show tends to progressively go away.
Many people can have this migraine phenomenon WITHOUT the headache; it is called an acephalgic migraine. Some people even start having these late in life, or may have had a few much earlier in life that behaved differently and haven't had any for decades and then begin to have them; this is not uncommon. A family history of migraines is often present as well.
This is nothing to worry about. It is not a sign of a more serious underlying condition, brain tumor or anything like that. If the episodes become so frequent that they are bothersome there are medicines that can be used to decrease their frequency or stop an episode once it has started.
I, personally, have been suffering from this condition for almost 30 years. I almost never got the headaches after the visual effects.
There was one time, I was in the middle of a very delicate retina operation, when an attack started. After a few moments I lost most of my central vision and the inferior part of my visual field. I, calmly, removed my surgical instruments from the patients eye and we all sat around in the OR for 15 minutes until my vision returned. Other than that my ocular migraines have not really caused me any significant problems :o)
