I planted 2 of these in our yard in autumn 2012. Almost immediately after planting they lost all of their leaves and went dormant, I thought they died but decided to wait and see if they'd bounce back in spring. I'm glad I did! They leafed out in March and bloomed in April. The blooms were beautiful though not incredibly fragrant, one was a light lavender with a lot of blooms, the other ended up more of a royal purple with smaller clusters. Shortly after that we had an early heatwave, unfortunately the foliage was still tender so it burned pretty badly, we lost almost all of the leaves. Again I thought it was a goner. Then it started to recover and, I couldn't believe it, it bloomed again! I've never heard of these being repeat bloomers, I don't know if it was just a freak occurrence or if... read more

On Dec 9, 2003, Clare_CA from Ventura,
Last year, I purchased several bareroot California Lilacs, called Descanso Hybrids. The colors that are available here are "Angel White," "California Rose," and "Lavender Lady." These hybrids were developed specifically to grow in the warm climate of Southern California and do not need the winter chill that most lilacs require in order to flower. They are featured at the Decanso Gardens in La Ca�ada, CA.

Unanswered: How to? - MS ACCESSS Form to use SplitContainer or Splitter
Hello all,
I have created MS ACECSS (2007) forms that are using "TreeView" control on the left and a connected form on the right. But there is a problem. the border between them is fixed...
I want to implement a SplitContainer or Splitter that will have a Treeview on the left side and the associated form on the right side and i can move the border between them.
I have seen many examples on the web for VB but could not understand how to implement it with MS ACECSS VBA. I was looking for the relevant OCX in windows.form for example. I was looking for the an ObjectX "Splitter" control in MS ACCES VBA, but none found.
Here are some references that i came accross:
SplitContainer Class (System.Windows.Forms)
A Splitter WIndow Control For VB - CodeGuru
Hope that someone can help me.

Not 100% sure about MS Access 2007 but in previous versions there is no such control.

Hello C,
You are right. there is no such control under MS ACCESS. But just like "TreeView" control which is "borrowed" from Comctl32.ocx and Mscomctl.ocx , I was looking for someone to help "borrow" the SplitContainer object (from a .NET OCX I believe).
Anybody that can help?

I'm not sure you can use a native managed object (from .NET) into Access. You would have to make it usable into a COM environment first (a Windows control in .NET does not natively expose an interface to the COM world).
It would be easier to build an OCX from the code provided in the second example (Splitter Window control for VB) using VB6.Have a nice day!

I've always known I had a fairly prominent double palmaris longus tendon. I've even wondered whether it does serve a purpose; I can move my middle and ring fingers more independently than most people, can flex them further (i.e. scratch my wrist with the same-side hand), can type faster, and have typed much longer than most people could without developing carpal tunnel syndrome, and my palmaris longus tendons move when I'm doing these things.
However, because so far as I ever noticed everyone else in my family has a double palmaris longus tendon too, I didn't realize that having this feature put me in a minority until I read this short article:

UPDATE - Added Manhunter #32 review.
Written by Warren Ellis
Art by Simone Bianchi
See that big #25 on the cover of this issue? That's meaningless. The entire issue pretty much ignores everything Whedon did with the exception of the introduction of Armor. There is no follow up to what just happened in Giant-Size Astonishing, there is no explanation as to why they are in San Francisco all of a sudden (assuming you haven't been reading anything except Astonishing), the characters sound completely different and the shift in focus of the book is drastic and comes out of nowhere when taken simply as "the next issue" of Astonishing X-Men. They really should have just restarted it with a new number one and / or title to differentiate Warren Ellis' run.
So, as someone who has dropped Uncanny X-Men and X-Men: Legacy and just about every other X-title post-Messiah Complex, it's kind of annoying to see the series shift so drastically and without any build up from the Whedon / Cassaday run, which just ended a month or so back.
Yes, I know they are moving to San Francisco and why they are moving there (or at least the general jist of it), but it doesn't mean we should start midstride with the team fully set up in a new base on the other side of the country with no explanation other than some offhand remark. The least they could have done was wait until Uncanny X-Men #500 came out so they could at least have had the new base and setting established properly.
So, ignoring all of that, how is the Ellis / Bianchi debut? Let's just say it's overly wordy, lacks the typical Ellis charm and doesn't know if it is trying to be an episode of Sienfeld or Star Trek.
On one hand, the team just talks about nothing, literally, for pages on end, whether it's Wolverine's sleeping habits or Armor's terrible name or just shooting the shit about whatever. On the other, Ellis jumps into some kind of murder mystery with a new breed of mutant involving a third chromosome (humans and mutants have two normally) and a trip around the world to some alien ship graveyard in Singapore to track the supposed killer.
It wasn't a bad issue, but it wasn't a good Astonishing X-Men issue or even a worthy follow up to Whedon and Cassaday's run. It was about as slow a burn as you can get and there wasn't a single memorable moment in the entire issue.
In regards to Bianchi's art, it was the same scratchy, over inked and muddied art that he had during his Wolverine arc with Jeph Loeb. If you're a fan of his style, it will be right up your alley, but I found it to be far too dark and expressionless compared to Cassaday's and it doesn't seem to fit the style or tone that Ellis is going for.
Verdict - Check It. I'm tempted to say Avoid It as nothing happens here. You could pick it up next issue and probably follow along with ease. I may be judging this too harshly. However, given the pedigree of this title and the quality of the new creative team, I expected far more than what was offered in this debut issue.
Written by Grant Morrison
Art by Tony Daniel and Sandu Florea
Words cannot describe just how retarded this issue was. I consider myself a fairly well read individual and I can typically follow just about any comic or paperback story with relative ease.
That said, this...thing...didn't make a lick of sense. I think Dr Hurt pumped Batman full of drugs and dumped him in an alley in between what happened last issue and the start of this one. From there, Bruce walked around town with some imaginary friend, bought some drugs and then stitched up a new costume in an alley that looks like the Zur-En-Aarh Batman costume from the old Silver Age story that no one gave a crap about when it was originally published and no one outside of Grant Morrison has probably read since then. Oh, and Bat-Mite shows up at the end as Zur-En-Aarh Batman's sidekick.
We also saw the League of Villains hunting down Robin and Nightwing and find out Alfred was just beaten and tied up, not killed at the end of the last issue. Nightwing ended up getting taken out off panel, taken to Arkham or some other mental institute, pumped full of drugs and stuck in a padded cell while Robin was on the run from his pursuers.
Verdict - Avoid It. Seriously, this makes no sense, relies on Silver Age stories that have no place in current continuity with as little effort as Morrison has put into fleshing them out and does nothing to further the RIP storyline. At this point, I can't see how any amount of drugs or future issues could possibly make this story make any sense and it will most likely be retconned or forgotten the minute it ends.
Written by Marc Andreyko
Art by Michael Gaydos
As hard as it is to believe, this issue blows last month's excellent issue out of the water. I'm going to chalk that up to the fact that the last issue served as a primer and quick introduction to Manhunter and her supporting cast and, with that out of the way, Andreyko was able to just go all out this issue and deliver one hell of a great story.
I think the thing I liked most about this issue is that it felt like I was reading a double sized issue. No, this wasn't a wall of text or anything ridiculous like that. It just felt like every page was jam packed with story and the pacing and build up was perfect.
Whether it was the brief "fight" with Blue Beetle, the chat with La Dama, the disagreement with Bones or the numerous other plot developments, it just felt like I was reading a trade compared to the decompression filled stories other books have been offering up as of late.
It's hard to even pick a favourite scene in this issue, but I'm going to have to go with the perfect depiction (outside of the non-scarab speak) of Blue Beetle and Kate Spencer's interaction with young Jaime. The Darkstar tech in Manhunter's costume and the Blue Beetle's scarab taking offense to it was a nice touch. Even the follow up scene with La Dama was spot on and I loved how Kate jumps at the offer for a drink of the expensive scotch. It was just something you never see any other "hero" doing and was perfectly in line with Kate's character.
The Joker subplot is still going this issue and I'm starting to have doubts that it's actually the Joker involved. It seems too methodical and un-Joker-like to set up Dylon like this issue did and I'm thinking this might be something more than what we're being lead to believe.
The chat with Bones was another highlight for me. He and Kate have great chemistry together and I love the way their chat plays out back and forth and it looks like we'll be seeing Amanda Waller, of Checkmate and Suicide Squad fame, showing up soon based on references made at the end of their conversation.
Verdict - Must Read. It's a real treat to pick up and read a book as good as Manhunter. I can't stress how highly I recommend this title. Do yourself a favour and pick up these first two issues of the return of this book.
Written by Robert Kirkman
Art by Charlie Adlard
It was a pleasant surprise I found The Walking Dead waiting for me at the shop today as Diamond didn't have it listed in its tentative release list for this week and I didn't even hear anything about it coming out until I got to the shop.
It's hard to believe a "zombie book" made it through fifty issues, especially when you consider it's entirely in black and white. That's just a testament to how good this title is and I look forward to, hopefully, another fifty or more issues of this series.
This issue continued to follow Rick and his son, Carl, in the aftermath of the Woodbury attack on the prison and the subsequent deaths of well over half the supporting cast in this book. In fact, we haven't seen any other possible survivors, aside from Rick and Carl, since then.
As far as Walking Dead issues go, this was another breather issue as we deal with Rick being shot and Carl looking after him. Kirkman does an incredible job showing us the effect this zombie infested world has had on young Carl and the lengths he must go to cope with the loss of his mother, baby sister, everyone and thing he knows and the fact his father is sick and possibly dying right in front of him.
Add a couple of zombies to the mix and it looked like the young boy was at his breaking point, especially when his father starts moaning and he's ready to shoot his father when he believes he has turned into a zombie.
Verdict - Must Read. It's a true character piece and one of the best looks at how people, especially children, are dealing with this world gone mad in this series and a nice change of pace from the action oriented No One is Safe arc.

So, the IRA terror suspect, John Downey, will now not face a trial for his alleged involvement in the Hyde Park and Regent's Park bombings of 1982, in which eleven soldiers (as well as seven horses) were murdered by nail bombs. The former Northern Ireland Secretary Peter Hain seems to be delighted about this and expressed his astonishment that Downey had been arrested in the first place. Downey mistakenly received a so-called 'comfort letter' as part of the Good Friday Agreement, informing him that he was now effectively immune from prosecution. For what it's worth, Downey denies the charges.
It wasn't a very good Friday, was it? I suppose we should be happy that most of the IRA content themselves these days with the black market cigarette trade, but there are still plenty of the rat-faced hooligans causing mayhem in Northern Ireland. Still, we should all be delighted that Peter Hain is happy.

Beautiful Projects - Holiday Knitting
Knitting is such a great hobby for holidays - perfectly portable and relaxing (hopefully!) I know many knitters spend longer planning the holiday knitting than packing their suitcase. My holiday knitting tip is to make a small start on all your projects, in case you haven't already. It's not pleasant to sit down to work on something only to find that you don't like the fabric, the pattern, or you have the wrong needle etc. And always pack an extra skein of sock yarn, you know, for emergencies...! Here are a few projects that were all worked on during a holiday to give you some inspiration.
A stunning Hap Blanket, knit in just six days by bagheraa for a friend's baby. Beautiful! There are more of her knits, and her lovely cat on instagram.
Liesl's a great one for knitting on a trip, and even better if you manage to finish it and wear it home! This lovely sweater was knit by violetmagpieknits, who you can also find on instagram here.
Mitts are good option for holiday knitting too, and Veyla have a little lace for when you can focus, and stocking stitch for when you can't. This gorgeous purple pair were knit by Tracy Vincent.
Shawls must be one of the most common holiday projects (I think I've knit Damson myself on two different trips...). This Damson was knit by Lilith of Old Maiden Aunt during a week-long stay in Paris, lucky lady!
I love the colour of this Ishbel that theknittingsquid knit on her trip, so cheery and dramatic!
And finally, another Damson. Treehouse-Nisse says that she bought the yarn and pattern during a trip to Dublin and cast on in the park by Saint Patrick's Cathedral. It sounds lovely!

MagnaChip Semiconductor Ltd., a leading Asia-based designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products for high volume consumer applications, announced that it now offers an ultra low noise process technology with industry leading low flicker noise and no required shift of electrical parameters for industry standard 0.18um 1.8, 3.3, and 5.0 volt and 0.35um 3.3 and 5.0 volt CMOS devices.
Flicker noise is a type of electronic noise caused by fluctuations in the surface channel. It occurs in almost all electronic devices especially at low frequencies. MagnaChip's low flicker noise process can both reduce the chip area of the analog block and improve the output noise of audio and video signals, particularly for semiconductor applications such as audio and video codecs, power amplifiers, regulators and oscillators.
"MagnaChip's ultra low noise process technology demonstrates our ongoing focus on developing leading technology solutions. We expect to further expand our process technology portfolio as we seek to continually understand and address our foundry customers' needs going forward," said Channy Lee, Executive Vice President and General Manager of MagnaChip's Semiconductor Manufacturing Services Division.

is currently the most exciting team in sports. Discuss.
They did a number on 'America's Hat' and they sure are easy on the eyes. Even the very-openly-gay members of the team.
I guess that carries a certain excitement to it.
Home today sick. I watched the game Today against Canada,and that game was the best game I have ever seen. I am not a soccer fan, so I don't watch that offen, maybe 1 game a year,if that. But I really enjoyed the game.
You do not want to google "Amy Wambach naked". Just saying.
I saw the ESPN mag Abby was featured in. Other than her mannish face, it was not that off-putting.
But I don't know who that Amy gal is, though.
As mentioned by the announcers, that game was one of the most itnense, and well played by both teams, in soccer history. Glad I got to see the last half of it.
Typo. I meant to type Alan Wambach.
Now, Megan Rapinoe is easier on the eyes.
It was the best soccer game I've ever seen. Period.
And Alex Morgan is a 10.
I think they lucked out on a couple of calls. It was a great game, though! Go TeamUSA!!!
Great game. Watched it with my 9 yo. daughter. She really enjoyed it as well. Happy my kids like sports!
Watch out for Japan in the finals.
That game absolutely kicked ***.
Props to Canada for a hellacious effort, too.
1-0 at half. Japan coming on strong though!
At 56 minutes:
Japan 0
Wow! What a save...
I opened this thread for the sole reason of posting what you just posted. For my taste, she is one of the most beautiful women alive. American, athletic, talented. The only thing that would make it better is if she liked guns....and me.
ETA I was gonna bring her up in the other thread when people were oogling over Kim kardashian(who would look good if you were drunk at a bar or something) but next to Morgan....shes a cow, and I thought Alex Morgan was my little secret. Guess not.
That'll do it.
Hope Solo may have had the play of the tournament with that last save.
That was clutch, but she still won't return my phone calls.

A team of NDP MPs and supporters is participating in the "Movember" campaign again this year to raise money for prostate cancer research.
This year's team captain, Quebec MP Matthew Dubé, kicked off their efforts Thursday by shaving off Nova Scotia MP Peter Stoffer's moustache in front of the cameras in the foyer of the House of Commons.
Stoffer agreed to part with his facial hair last year too, as the "New De-MO-Crat" team started its month-long pitch for donations.
Former party leader Jack Layton had prostate cancer before his death in 2011.
MPs from all parties grew facial hair in support of the cause last year.

Star Treck "Into The Darkness" Official Movie Trailer (VIDEO)
I'll admit it, I have NEVER seen a Star Treck movie. And I've got to be honest, this one actually sparks an interest for me after watching this trailer...
I'll admit it, I have NEVER seen a Star Treck movie. And I've got to be honest, this one actually sparks an interest for me after watching this trailer...
This movie looks to be pretty epic. If you don't like trailers because they give away too much you're pretty safe to watch this trailer. I would recommend skipping from 1:20 to 1:31 because it is the only big spoiler in the trailer that I would rather see in the theater for the first time.
This weekend's new films include a timely tale of revenge against a greedy rich guy, and the latest in a movie franchise beloved by users of, shall we say, "recreational herbs."
I am excited to see this weekends big release - the remake of Footloose. It stars Julianne Hough in a role completely opposite of her personality (at least that's what the previews look like...
Marvel Studios released a full-length trailer for 'The Avengers' Tuesday, giving fans their first look at Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans and the rest of the all-star superhero team battling evil.
If you aren't too busy tailgating now that football is back, you might want to check out one of the new movies opening up this weekend.
It may sound like sacrilege to the many Twihards out there, but lots of people out there (ahem, like us) simply don't get the devotion the 'Twilight' books and movies have inspired.
To us, they're just weird — comprising nothing more than one giant homage to a love-that-dare-not-speak-its-name until after marriage, and then insisting on having the baby when you get knocked up even though, oh yeah, it could kill you. And besides, why did Bella pick the pasty vampire anyway when Taylor Lautner is obviously so much hotter?
Moviegoers this weekend will have a choice of three new films in wide release.
In 'Contagion,' Matt Damon fights a viral epidemic that could endanger the entire planet, while the title character in 'Bucky Larson: Born to Be a Star' learns his parents were once porn-stars and abandons his small town life to follow in their footsteps. Finally, 'Warrior' see
Who says you can't go home? Not Stifler, his mom, Jim, Finch, Oz, Jim's dad and the rest of the 'American Pie' crew, who are back for 'American Reunion,' supposedly the final film in the 'Pie' franchise after three theatrical releases and four direct-to-DVD spinoffs.
The film's first teaser trailer dropped today and it doesn't reveal much — just a collection of photobooth shots of the gang reunited at their high school reunion. How come the people at our reunions didn't age this well?
Johnny Depp is stepping into the wacky world of Hunter S. Thompson again in 'The Rum Diary,' an adaptation of the gonzo journalist's semi-fictional novel of the same name.

Guidebooks might be in order; Fodor's anyone?
Report Abuse
Rick Steves London and Paris guidebooks have a couple of pages in the front that go over "what do do if you only have one day in Paris/London.". Then there is "what to add if you have one/two more day(s)". That will give you a great starting point.
Report Abuse
You could get Top 10 Paris and London by DK Eyewitness Guides, pocket size publications so very easy to read and follow.
Report Abuse
Have a look at the websites of London Walks and Paris Walks, which are a good way of getting some on-the-ground guided experiences of both cities, the guides are usually good, and provide lots of history & atmosphere, very cost-effective too. You can then add on to your itinerary the specific landmarks you want to visit yourselves in each place.
Report Abuse
Fun ideas, visit the Catacombs( google for info on those) and consider if budget will allow a bike tour ( or if able to splurge a bit, then segways) .. Fat Tire Bike Tours,, google. The Night bike tour of Paris includes a Seine Cruise, so its a good deal. No need to prebook or pay so you can play it by ear re the weather. Google for their website.
Also to enter the Louvre without a huge line, do not use the Pyramide entrance,, its often quite blocked up .. enter from the shopping mall ( its underground) off the Rue Du Rivoli.. Carosuel Mall, or from the metro stop entrance, or Porte de Lions.

tnx a lot guys.. will look it up.. so excited!

There is a lot to do in London that is free--many museums are (British Library and British Museum,National Gallery, Tate Modern,Victoria and Albert, Imperial War Museum, more) In your probably-really-2.5 days, you could confine yourself to only free stuff plus walk around parks and iconic things like the outside of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, and Trafalgar Square plus a park or two plus a Southbank stroll and have to much to get to! You'd see tons, have plenty of photo ops, and only pay for some transport.
But my favorite thing in London is the Tower of London so I'd urge you to spring for that cost.
Get a map and remember that London is HUGE and transport takes time, so don't try to cram too many things into one day. Guide books' lists of "here's what to do in 1 or in 2 days in London" are notoriously unrealistic. If you plan 2-3 main big things each of your full days and group them by neighborhood, you will be fine. I have only heard good things about London Walks, but you don't have to pay for a guide to enjoy lots.
You might do a bit of reading/planning and on a different thread post your tentative itinerary and get some feedback. You didn't say much about what appeals to you guys, so it's hard to give suggestions--you will only barely barely get a hint of a taste of all that London has, but it will be a great time! But giving us a little more idea of what you're interested in may help with the help here.
Report Abuse
There are literally thousands of threads here on Fodors about visiting Paris and London. Read them. Your time is terribly short in each city, so peruse all the threads, get yourself maps of the two cities so you can group sites to visit together, get to know the transportation systems around each city ahead of time, and plan, plan, plan - but also be sure to budget time for a sit-down and people-watch in each place.
Report Abuse
A boattrip on both the Themes and the Seine. Gives the touristlegs a nice pause and you see so much of the cities in that way

I would recommend writing down your top two or three "must-see-before-I-die" spots in each city. Plan on seeing them and everything else is extra!
Report Abuse
will do, guys.. tnx
Report Abuse
also, i was interested in going to a few attractions, such as the london eye, do u think its best to buy it from the internet, or i might find better deals there?? any suggestions on sites ?
Report Abuse
I suspect that the price for the London Eye is fixed.
Report Abuse
Have never done the Eye but have heard suggestion to wait to see what weather is like and buy the morning you want to go--not sure how that all works, but I don't think you need to buy stuff ahead of time.
You may want to look into the 2for1 travel voucher thing from DaysOut (tied to getting PAPER ONE DAY TRAVEL CARDS to be used on the Tube but purchased at a RAIL station)--would want to print out vouchers at home ahead of time. But don't need to purchase anything.
I'd caution you again, as I said above, to not plan too many things in London each day. 2-3 top things with 2-3 other if-we-have-time things. Group by area. Use maps to help do this.

If you have an Apple device, Fodor's Travel Apps for both London and Paris are currently free and work offline. I posted this information on another thread and Fodor's mobile manager added this link:

i liked that 2 for 1 deal that days out had... really interesting... so, when i take the tube from the airport to queensway, which is where my hotel is, i just have to keep the card and show them at the entrance of the attractions?? or i have to buy in advance the tickets?
Report Abuse
No, you can't buy the paper travel card needed for the 2for1 deals from LHR (I assume you are arriving at Heathrow). You will buy Oyster Card (plastic thing that "holds" credit for future travel.) You can "load" one-day-travel card amounts on this plastic Oyster card, but this won't be what you need for using the vouchers which require a paper travel card purchased from a RAIL station. (look at map--there are many stations all over London--look at markings--some have the Underground symbol, some a rail symbol, some both)
You will need to go to a station (I think Paddington will be closest to you) that is a RAIL station as well as a Tube station. Go to a manned booth in the RAIL portion of the station and buy a one-day-paper Travel Card.
The bother of having to go to such a station is one reason you may not find it worth the hassle. Depends on how much you are saving.
However, here's one idea, assuming you were going to ride the Tube from LHR to Bayswater--ride the Picadilly Line to Picadilly Circus; switch to Bakerloo line to Paddington; exit at Paddington into the Station and purchase onedaytravelcards for the next day; get back on the Tube and take the Circle or District line to Bayswater. Walk to hotel; the next day you already have your travel cards to use for the 2for1 deals. (This I guess would charge an extra ride on your already purchased travel card/Oyster, but at least it would be done.)
There may be some problem with above scenario so I won't guarantee its efficacy and invite comment for Aj.
(If you don't bother with getting the paper travel cards on your way to hotel, then you are going to ride Picadilly LIne and change at South Kensington for Circle or District line to Bayswater.)
It's actually easier than it sounds.

Also, we stayed a few hundred yards from this hotel in a B&B on Tenniel Close, and we used Bayswater Tube Station almost exclusively; the one time we used Queensway it was horribly crowded and the lift was broken and we had to walk up hundreds (?) of stairs, spiralling up in a hoard. I could be wrong, but Bayswater looks as close if not closer than Queensway from your hotel. Exit Bayswater Station, turn LEFT onto Queensway Street, (going north) to Porchester Gardens, turn right (west) and go to second road to left, Queensborough Terrace, turn right (south) and find hotel.

@tailsock - that MetrO app is INCREDIBLE. I'm totally addicted. I've put in nearly all my destinations in London and Paris and it gives me the easiest routes door to door. I'm lucky to be staying a couple of blocks from major lines in both cities. Yay for this app!
Thank you so much for the recommendation!

Palm reading is an ancient art that has been around for thousands and thousands of years, and there is a good reason it has stood the test of time.
A lot of people dismiss this practice as silly superstitious beliefs, but I think half the time their skepticism stems from them not truly understanding what it's all about. So why not broaden your own horizons and try giving it a go for yourself? What have you got to lose?
If you're are interested in the subject Ellen Goldberg's videos entice me like no other. This woman really knows her stuff and she is utterly fascinating to watch. I'm sure you'll agree.
She does an excellent job at describing what the main lines and patterns on your hands signify.
The first major line that people notice on their palm is located right below the base of the fingers (see the image above).

Die Villa verfügt über 1 einzigartige Lage am Strand & ist von diesem 0 Min. entfernt. Es handelt sich um eine brandneue Villa mit 5 SZ. Sie ist perfekt gelegen und nur 8 Min. (zu Fuß) von den Bars, Restaurants & Supermärkten entfernt. Sie verfügt über zwei private geschlossene Autogaragen & 1 schönen Garten vor sowie hinter dem Haus. Auch hat sie 1 sehr große Terrasse & 1 Infinity-Pool & 1 Grill. Die Villa ist komplett eingerichtet und wie Sie auf den Fotos sehen werden, verfügt sie über luxuriöse Möbel und weiße Ware. Die Versorgungseinrichtungen der Villa sind betriebsbereit. Sollten die Kunden sich eine größere Villa wünschen oder sollten zwei Familien zusammen die Villa mieten wollen, verfügt die Villa über einen weiteren voll ausgestatteten Wohnbereich mit 2 SZ mit Badezimmern en Suite, luxuriöser Küche und einer schönen Lounge (bitte beachten Sie, dass die Villa durch diesen Extra-Wohnbereich 7 SZ, 2 Wohnzimmer, 2 Küchen und 6 Badezimmer hat und der Mietpreis bei 1200 GBP liegt)
A beachfront house with a pool for an affordable price? If you - like I did - read all the comments of previous tenants, you expect to have found a real deal (German: "Schnäppchen"). But there are no deals, not in this world...
So what's good? Kemal is a really, really nice guy, very helpful and approachable on almost anything. And the pool is as good as it looks on the pics.
Bad? The beach!! It is dirty. There is some sand, but mostly rocks. And the water turns into a garbage dump as soon as the wind picks up around noon. Then you have to cross a 20 meter zone full of plastic bags, bottles and the likes.
Bad: The outside area has no shade, except on one side where the dining area is. The rest (i.e. 80%) of the very nice outside area is completely unprotected. No umbrellas.
Also bad: The lack of soundproof of the bedroom windows. As the house is on a fairly busy road, it feels as if you sleep outside, and that is with the windows closed.
- Three of the bedrooms are in the basement, where it is dark and damp. The master bedroom upstairs is very nice, but loud. And the ground floor bedroom has the size of a box room.
- The internet is so weak that it only works inside, where it gets super hot during the day.
So all in all: Won't go there again. Sorry Kemal.
We had such a wonderful family holiday at Kemal's very lovely villa.
It was exactly what we were looking for, the pool and the views were outstanding.
Kemal went over and above to help us he could in anyway, his friendliness made our stay extra special.
The villa was great, spacious and cool.
Thank-you for having us Kemal we all had a brilliant time!
* A message to future holiday makers using Owners Direct -
BE WARNED I paid by mastercard and was charged an extra 3% by my bank.
Owners Direct did not warn me of the extra charges.
I have disputed this with Owners Direct and they have refused to pay the bank charge they did not notify me about.
This is not good business practise.
Well what can I say, the villa was amazing with stunning sea views and to be right on the Ocean was fab. It was plenty big enough for our two families with lots of space and a fantastic view. All the rooms were a lovely size and well decorated.
My only fault was that the two weeks we were there went too quickly and we didn't want it to end
Kem, the villa owner was there to greet us when we arrived and checked in on us to make sure everything was ok. nothing was too much trouble for him, so thank you Kem for your lovely Cypriot hospitality.
An amazing two weeks and would highly recommend Villa Moonlight. Right near the supermarket, local bank and plenty of places to eat and see.
Lorraine and Family
We had a wonderful visit to Villa Moonlight. The villa was very spacious we were two families staying there together! Enough room for us all. Kemal was friendly and extremely helpful sorting out any questions we may have. The pool is scrupulously clean-I have not stayed anywhere where it is attended too as much as this one.
The location was perfect, near enough to the essentials and right on the beach, even my husband who does not normally spend a lot of time in a pool found it really relaxing.
All in all I would highly recommend this villa if you want a relaxing and wonderful holiday. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you so much Kemal
We have just returned home following a 2 week stay at the wonderful Moonlight Villa. As a large party which consisted of 3 families - 6 adults, 3 teenagers, & 6 children the accommodation within the villa & its modern layout was superb & suited our requirements perfectly. The properties appearance inside & out was well maintained & all areas were clean & presented beautifully. The abundance of bathrooms & bedrooms with air conditioning was a huge benefit.
The kitchen was very well equip with utensils etc and living area had plenty of seating.
The patio & pool area was brilliant & well facilitated with sun beds a huge outdoor dining area & BBQ. The sea view from poolside was idilic & having what seemed like your own private beach was a real bonus.
From start to finish the owner of the villa, Kemal, was extremely kind & helpful. Having flown into Larnaca & hired cars from the airport, Kemal was extremely courteous & met us in order to show us the way to the villa (just over an hours drive) and also did the same on our return trip. Throughout our stay Kemal stayed in contact & visited briefly to ensure we were all ok & provided us with some local knowledge of places to visit & eat. He was an extremely friendly & helpful Gent who wanted to ensure we had an enjoyable stay.
The local supermarket was a stones throw away, bakery, butchers & petrol stations were all within close vicinity.
We came across The Hilltop Bar (less than 10 mins drive away) the second week & enjoyed such a delicious steak meal there (in fact the best we have eaten) we returned for our last meal. The helpful staff, atmosphere & entertainment was tremendous - well worth a visit.
The benefit of having a vehicle meant we could visit a number of great places such as Famagusta (ghost town), Agia Napa, Nissi Beach, Paralimni & Protaras all no more than just over an hours drive away. All places would recommend you visit during a stay.
Having enjoyed an amazing holiday with family & great friends we would thoroughly recommend this villa to anyone looking to holiday in North Cyprus.
Thank you Kemal & Family for allowing us to stay in your wonderful villa & ensuring our holiday is one to remember!!!
The Day, Woodward & Kennett Families XX
Firstly, Great location..but….. Wow, wow, wow!!!, this villa certainly has the wow factor, and that's just not an exaggeration. I cannot possibly write in the limited space how our stay was at the moonlight villa.
The Villa is in a great location, idyllic for a quiet family holiday away from the hustle and bustle of city centres and was just simply fantastic, magnificent, dazzling, unsurpassed, transcendent, flawless, supreme and spotlessly clean. It is without a doubt very well looked after couldn't recommend it enough.
We particularly enjoyed the large outside space, which is perfect for a family holiday. With a large infinity pool overlooking the deep blue Mediterranean sea, A bbq area, a large parasol with modern ratallan furniture, the villa looks exactly like the pictures. At night if there is a fool moon, its reflection on the ocean, making the sea waters sparkle, is transcendent, dazzling and just experiencing that view is simply breathtakingly unequalled.
There is absolutely no fault in the layout of the villa, and just for a family of six, it was colossal. All the rooms were so spacious, well furnished and immaculately clean.
The villa is only a few minutes walk from Lemar supermarket and Bogaz harbour with has a few nice fish restaurants and a public beach area. Bogaz harbour itself does not have a lot of variety of shops but it does have a few cash machines which offer money in different currencies. The villa itself is about 20 minutes drive from the nearest town, Famagusta and half an hour away from Kyrenia, and if you fancy a trip going to the water parks in South Cyprus, Aiya Napa is only half an hours drive too. So I would say the villa is centrally located to most of your holiday needs although a car is an absolute essential to make the most out of your experience.
The owner, Kemal, ( What a lovely, most humble down to earth gentleman!) was fantastic and answered our many queries and questions promptly. He was able to arrange our airport pick up and drop off and also for some essentials to be in the fridge which was a huge help as we arrived late at night. We had a few water problems during the first few days, and this was promptly dealt with efficiently, and Kemal was very apologetic for the disruption while they replaced the old tank with a brand new one, which only took less than 30mins.
All in all a fantastic family holiday, and to Kemal the owner, you are an absolute gentleman and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

I have curly hair and am very sensitive to ANY scented products. Without gel, my curls are out of control! I've been using this gel daily for years and couldn't be happier with it! It's by far my favorite hair product I've ever, ever tried! iHerb also has the best prices around!
I love carob, and I was very impressed with this brand. If you expect carob to be the same as chocolate, it's not. It's much more "malty" and can be substituted where you'd use cocoa powder, but definitely isn't the same. I actually prefer carob to cocoa (no caffeine jitters!) and would definitely buy this brand again.
This is the best way to beat a cold before it really sets in! I use 1 wafer in hot water and drink it like a tea whenever I feel like I am getting sick, or need an immune boost, and it always does the trick! I buy multiple tubs and keep them everywhere home, at the office, in my bag, etc! I like both the orange and raspberry flavors. Great product!
I have curly, dry hair and am very sensitive to any scented products. This leave-in is the perfect solution! I use it after shampooing and conditioning (yes, I have to condition twice!) and follow it up with the Alba unscented gel which I also love! Alba's unscented products are a home run in my book! iHerb offers the best prices!
This is my favorite coconut oil I've ever tired, and I've tried a lot! Has a beautiful, mellow flavor that doesn't overpower and is very versatile. I use it daily, and the 16 oz container lasts a long time for me. It's really an amazing product, and the only coconut oil I ever want to buy!
This soap lathers nicely, rinses clean, and is great for the even most sensitive of skins (like mine!) My only complaint, is that the bar is thin and dissipates quickly. That said, iHerb prices are so good, you can afford to purchase it more frequently. (And I LOVE the simple ingredient list!)
This is hands down the best brown rice protein powder I have ever had! Although it might seem pricey, it's so very worth it! It's so much smoother than most vegan powders and does marvelously in smoothies, shakes, vegan ice creams and baked goods. An amazing product, with a great price on iHerb!
This is my favorite "vegan friendly" toothpaste I've found. It leaves you feeling minty fresh and doesn't have a weird aftertaste like many toothpastes do.
I love hemp protein powder, and this is one of my favorite brands. It's a bit "smoother" than other brands (if you've had hemp protein, you know it can be a bit gritty) but this brand does well in smoothies and in baked goods and I love it!
BWC waterproof mascara is my favorite vegan mascara on the market, and I've tried quite a few! I have very sensitive eyes and skin, and this doesn't bother me at all (even when I forget to remove it before bed!) It doesn't flake much, if at all, and has really nice coverage. Highly recommend you try!

I'm a middle child. >_<
I was on babysitting duty for most of my childhood so I never had a chance to develop an individual personality. It made me grow up a bit too fast, too soon. I don't think parents realize the weight middle children hold on their shoulders...always trying to be good enough or bad enough to stand out.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
Were you the middle child in a medium, medium large, large or very large family?
It was me, a little sis, big bro and mother. Father was there for a tiny bit but left soon after. No uncles aunts cousins or grandparents so we're a pretty small family! :)
Middle children need as much as any other child in terms of attention, guidance, affection, and even material things. Some parents "forget" this important fact. If one is going to be a parent this detail must be thought through prior to having them and if one cannot provide equal love, attention, affection, perhaps just one or no children would be best.
But no, many parents treat having children like bragging about having various material things and just expect the difficult job of caring for them to "come" to them without thought or effort. For many, the intricacies of parenting never comes to them. Love and affection can be shown in many ways, too many parents "forget" this important fact. Perhaps some parents don't or won't understand that the middle children should be treated just as those who are older or younger are.
For example, when financial circumstances are the exact same if not better and the older and youngest of three are given cars and parents pay for braces for their teeth, why shouldn't the middle child have these things as well?

EXACTLY, the middle child is oftentimes the forgotten child in the family. HE/SHE is NEITHER here nor there. HE/SHE is ALWAYS someone's else siblings, NEVER an individual on his/her account.This is called the JAN BRADY syndrome.

Malcolm Baldrige Award
Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award Winner (1991)
The Baldrige Award is given by the President of the United States to businesses – manufacturing and service, small and large – and to education and health care organizations that apply and are judged to be outstanding in seven areas: leadership, strategic planning, customer and market focus, information and analysis, human resource focus, process management and business results.
Congress established the award program in 1987 to recognize U.S. organizations for their achievements in quality and performance and to raise awareness about the importance of quality and performance excellence as a competitive edge. The award is not given for specific products or services. Three awards may be given annually in each of these categories: manufacturing, service, small business and, starting in 1999, education and health care.

By Keith Buglewicz
KBB Expert Rating: 8.4
For 2017 the new Ford Fusion gets a thorough refresh in the name of keeping it competitive with the class-leading Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and Kia Optima. There are also two new models. First is a luxury edition called Fusion Platinum that adds leather on the dash, piped seating and other tech and luxury upgrades. The other is the new Fusion Sport, which adds all-wheel drive (AWD) and a 2.7-liter 325-horsepower V6 engine, blending family-car and sports-sedan sensibilities into one car. The rest of the lineup sticks with 4-cylinder engines, while the two hybrid models -- the Fusion Hybrid and plug-in Fusion Hybrid Energi -- return to anchor the eco-friendly end of the lineup.
The 2017 Ford Fusion answers a lot of transportation questions. If you want a practical and affordable family sedan, it has you covered. It's also an eco-friendly hybrid or plug-in hybrid. The new Platinum and Sport models promise luxury and performance, respectively, and the Fusion remains a high-tech champ.
There's not a lot working against the Fusion. Diesel fans will have to look elsewhere, although the Hybrid models do extremely well on fuel economy. About the only other thing we can imagine is brand loyalty.
KBB Expert Ratings
out of 30Fuel Economy
out of 30Horsepower
Ford's new Fusion gets subtly revised exterior styling, mainly focusing on the nose, headlights, lower bumper and rear taillights. There are also changes inside, with a new rotary shifter and upgraded Sync infotainment system. Two new models also debut: the luxury-oriented Platinum, and the sporty, V6-powered Fusion Sport.
The 2017 Ford Fusion wants to be all things to all people, and it does a surprisingly good job of it, in both front- and all-wheel-drive forms (FWD, AWD). All...
... benefit from a sporty suspension and sharp steering, from the base models with their 2.5-liter 4-cylinder, mid-level models with their punchier and more efficient turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder, or higher-end models with the 240-horsepower 2.0-liter 4-cylinder. If you're looking for an even sportier experience, the new 2017 Fusion Sport offers a twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6 and AWD, while luxury shoppers can opt for the new Platinum model. If you're more practical than hedonistic, the two different Fusion Hybrids -- regular and plug-in -- offer fuel-friendly and nicely sorted driving; there's also a Platinum version of both if you're in the have-it-and-eat-it camp. The easier-to-use Sync system improves the driving experience of any Fusion model that has it.
With electrification a bigger deal these days, the Fusion Hybrid Energi with its 21 miles of electric-only driving range is a serious player that could let its driver go literally weeks without refueling. But you can still take that road trip thanks to the gasoline engine, and a subsequent 610-mile range.
Fine, we're suckers for horsepower, and the 2017 Ford Fusion Sport has it in spades with its 2.7-liter 325-horsepower twin-turbo V6. Coupled with AWD and an even better suspension, the Fusion Sport promises to be an Audi A6 for those on a budget.
The new 2017 Fusion Platinum interior, with its stitched dash and premium leather seats with contrast piping, is sumptuous enough to make the Lincoln MKZ feel redundant. Other upgrades this year for the rest of the lineup include a rotary shifter and electronic parking brake. However, Ford has largely kept the roomy 5-passenger interior intact. It's roomy enough for four adults, three kids can fit in back, and its big trunk holds more than a Honda Accord's. Hybrid models have a smaller trunk owing to the battery, but even they have a pass-through to the rear seats for longer items.
The grille, headlights, lower bumper and taillights on the 2017 Fusion have been reworked subtly, but effectively. It still looks like an Aston Martin, but that's no bad thing. Platinum models add extra chrome and unique wheels, while Fusion Sport models go for a sporty demeanor with standard fog lights, a mesh grille and charcoal-colored wheels. On a practical note, the clever EasyFuel capless gas-filler system means you'll never again lose the fuel cap, or have to wrestle it open or closed. Fusion Energi models use a lighted ring around the charge port, with a fully lit ring meaning charging's complete.
The base-model 2017 Fusion S comes nicely equipped, starting with a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder and 6-speed automatic transmission. On top of that, the Fusion S comes with manual climate control, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, audio system with USB and auxiliary inputs, a rearview camera, and Ford's Sync wireless communication system with voice control. Fusion SE models add a 10-way-power driver's seat, rear air vents, a 6-speaker audio system and 17-inch wheels. Higher-end models get the powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, upgraded audio systems, Sync3 with greatly improved usability, and niceties like dual-zone auto climate control, leather seating and 18-inch wheels.
Besides the two new models -- the performance-oriented Fusion Sport and the near-luxury Fusion Platinum -- there are plenty of stand-alone options. You can add blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control with collision warning to help expand driver awareness, and make the Fusion an excellent road-trip sedan. There's a reverse-sensing system to warn you of obstacles, and an Active Park Assist system will actually parallel-park the car for you. All-wheel drive is also available on SE, Titanium, Sport and Platinum models, making it one of the few family sedans ready for foul-weather security in Snowbelt states.
There are six different ways to motivate your 2017 Fusion. The base 2.5-liter 4-cylinder exists, and you should skip it. Instead, start at the SE sedan, which comes standard with the 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder, with the option of upgrading to the 2.0-liter version. The 2.0-liter is standard in the Titanium and Platinum models. Fusion Sport comes with a new-for-Fusion 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6 with 325 horsepower, making it the most powerful car in its class. The two electrically augmented Fusion models -- Fusion Hybrid and Hybrid Energi plug-in -- use a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder gasoline engine and electric motor coupled to a continuously variable automatic transmission for excellent fuel economy; the Energi has up to 21 miles of EV range. AWD is available with the 2.0-liter 4-cylinder.

The Hammers are preparing for friendlies with A-League sides Wellington Phoenix on Wednesday, and Sydney FC on Saturday.
The Londoners finished 13th in the top flight in 2013-14, having secured a top-10 placing on their promotion season 12 months earlier and Allardyce says their fall was due to a lack of points picked up at Upton Park.
|West Ham are 5/2 to finish in the top half of the Premier League next season with William Hill
"I think it's all about winning, and winning the right way," Allardyce told reporters. "Because if you play really well and lose, that doesn't make much difference to any fan across the board today.
"So it's about playing well, but it's about winning as well, and that's what we didn't do at home enough last season.
"I'm not totally convinced that all the hype on changing the way West Ham play really is the key element.
"The key element is it was producing what we did the year before, and try to be better and we didn't do that.
"And I think when that didn't happen, we built such a big expectation in year one back in the Barclays Premier League that everybody expected us to push on and be better and greater in the next season, and that wasn't the case for various reasons."
Captain Kevin Nolan attributed their failure to climb the table down to injuries, claiming his personal output - seven goals in 33 games - was affected by forced rotations.
"I think that was a major thing for us last year, it was a lot of injuries," Nolan said.
"It was very difficult from me, from my personal point of view, to build up a relationship with a striker because we had a lot of chopping and changing to do because of the injury state [of affairs], what we had to put up with last year.
"So I'm really confident this year if we can stay away from them injuries, if we can keep Andy [Carroll] fit, as well as the signings… what I've seen of [Mauro] Zarate, he's a fantastic player, and someone I can certainly feed off to get goals, and someone who's going to score goals."
