My husband and I are planning a trip to Italy in May of 2013. We can only travel 2 weeks total. I put together a sample itinerary and but I am having trouble finding flights or the best method of transportation to and from each area. I listed them in the order of North to South but this can be rearranged. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Depart Miami, FL May 1st
Arrive in Venice May 2nd. stay 2 nights
Travel to Tuscany (drive or train?) 3 nights
Travel to Rome (drive or train?) 2nights
Travel to Amalfi coast ( i heard driving through here is nice?) 2 nights
Travel to sicily (flight would be fastest due to time constraints right?) 2 nights
Fly back home May 13th, arrive May 14th
Again, we can change the order and where we fly into, I would just like suggestions on order & best method of transportation since this is our first trip to Europe. Thanks for your help!

You do not have time for 5 destinations---4 will be a stretch.
Sicily is the obvious outlier---save it for when you have at least a week.
How many nites will you sleep in Italy---11 or 12?
With 11. I would consider only 3 destinations.
Report Abuse
When you stay somewhere 2 nights that only gives you 1 full day in a location. Everytime you move you will lose 1/2 a day in transit, checking out, getting to the train station, waiting for the train, taking the train, then doing it all again on the other side.
You will barely get to these places before you are leaving again! With 11-12 days I agree that you should stick to 3 locations.
Report Abuse
I'm going to make a gross generalization here and say the more experienced a traveler is the longer they stay in a given location. Yes, I know there are you movement junkies out there but I think it's true more often than not.
I believe, whether we think about it or not, the reason is that we come to the conclusion that we need not see every place in a given country to have a quality experience and in many cases the longer we stay in a location the better that experience is. The point is not necessarily doing things, it's just being there. And the slower we go the more we see.
It may be a thing that one must learn, cannot be taught. But in this case I'll agree that 3 places would be the most you could do and not feel terribly rushed. And don't waste time and effort with a car. Take the trains.
Report Abuse
It looks like you have 11 days on the ground. Is that correct? Completely agree with the above posters recommendations. I would eliminate Amalfi Coast & Sicily. My suggestions:
Arrive in Venice May 2nd. stay 3 nights
Travel to Tuscany (drive ) 5 nights I think a car for this portion would be nice since you could pick one location to stay in and do day trips and a car makes that much easier to get to some less touristed towns.
Travel to Rome (train) 3nights
If you prefer big cities you could allocate more time to Rome and less to Tuscany and then t might not be worth it to rent a car.
Report Abuse
I completely agree with the above comments but it's your trip and if you feel the need to move around every couple of days then that's what you decide.
When you travel you can choose to either travel to many locations and spend part of your vacation time getting from place to place OR visit fewer locations and see more of the sights in those places.
Whether you rent a car or take the train to Tuscany depends on where in Tusany you're staying. If in a city (Florence, Pisa, Lucca, Siena, for example) it's more practical to use public transportation (bus/train). If you want to stay in the countryside then renting a car is usually better.
Travel to Rome - again this depends on where you stay in Tuscany and if you have already rented a car.
Driving on the Amalfi Coast is difficult. There's lots of traffic and cars must give way to the buses. You'll be driving on narrow, winding roads with only Belgium Blocks on the edge. The driver will need to keep his/her eyes on the road and will not have much time to look at scenery.
Sicily - it would be a shame to only go to Sicily for 1 day. An expensive excursion for little time.
If you do keep this agenda then fly into Venice and home from whatever city you're visiting on Sicily.

My first trip to Italy looked like this:
Flew into Rome spent two nights
Drove to Sorrento spent one night
Hydrofoiled to Capri spent one night
Hydrofoiled to Naples and took an overnight train to Venice..
Spent one night in Venice....
All totally doable and enjoyed every second of it.
Granted, I only had a week to spend there, and I wish it could have been longer, however, it gave me the opportunity to know where I wanted to go back to. If you train it overnight from Venice to Naples, that takes care of "wasting any time traveling. The overnight train was wonderful (be sure to reserve a first class cabin as it is private for you and your husband.) I would however eliminate the Sicily portion, as it is alot to do for a short time. I would definitely do the Isle of Capri as that was a fabulous portion of my trip.

Thank you all for your suggestions so far. Yes I know I was trying to fit in as much as I could without being too rushed and I was cutting it close. Its rare we can take a vacation at all, let alone one for 2 weeks.
It seems for 11-12 days in Italy, the best option is stick with 3 locations. From what I heard, Rome and Venice are a "must" so would Tuscany be the better option for a first time visitor rather than Amalfi coast? As far as scenery and things to do/see? How does everyone rate those 4 areas?
My husband's family was originally from Sicily, and I hate to cut it out of the trip, but it seems so far from everything else for a short trip
So if we do Venice, Tuscany and Rome in that order would it be best to drive from Venice to Tuscany , then train to Rome?
I have started researching hotels/castle type inns, but can anyone suggest a specific town in each area that is the best place to stay for a first time visitor? As I stated, this is our only vacation (for a few years) so we are okay with spending more for a nicer hotel experience.
Thanks again for your help!

If Sicily is truly important for your trip, then you can fit it in. Just delete Tuscany and the Amalfi Coast.
Fly into Venice - 3 nights.
Early morning train to Rome - 4 nights.
Fly from Rome to Palermo or Catania - rent a car - 4-5 nights.
Fly home from Palermo or Catania.
Report Abuse
Yes, do those 3 in that order.
Then, start to plan your next 2 trips to Italy since you will return. Sicily needs 10 days or more. The AC can be done in 5.
The lakes are still my favorite destination---tons of options.

I would agree with the above posters. On our 10 nights in Italy, we spent 3 in Venice, 4 in Tuscany and 3 in Rome. I wouldn't have wanted to spend less in any of those places, and more nights in Rome would have been welcome. We took the train from Venice to Chiusi (. This meant we let the "the train take the pain" for those 4 hours. Then we picked up our car from Hertz near the Chiusi train station. We used the car to tool around Tuscany, which was a real pleasure. Then we dropped it back at the same station, and took the train to Rome.
This arrangement, train then car, was suggested by many on the Fodor boards, and worked well.
I can recommend the Residenza Il Poggiolo in the village of San Quirico d'Orcia as a Tuscany base, and the Navona Garden Suites in Rome. Both were superb.

I know what you mean about where your husband's family is from. Our first trip to Italy we did the big 3 - Rome, Florence, Venice. It was fabulous! When I was planning that trip, I never thought that we would be back again in just 15 months, and with the big 3 out of the way, we made it a priority to visit where my hubby's family was from in the Piemonte region. This is just to mention that you will likely end up back again.
When we stayed in Tuscany during our 2nd trip we stayed in Castellina in Chianti. We stayed at Fattoria Tregole (http://www.fattoria-tregole.com/), a wonderful old villa with an active winery. We thought it was an excellent location and visited many small towns in Tuscany from there. We did have a car, which as others have mentioned is really necessary for getting the most out of Tuscany. I would agree with the poster who recommended taking the train close to your Tuscany location and renting a car there.
Here is a link to my trip report which also has pictures of where we stayed in tuscany:

Thank you again for the helpful responses about order and transportation.
sformby and jgg, thanks for the details I will look into your suggestions. Jgg- your blog is great!
I'm sure I will have more questions as we plan...
Report Abuse
When you say you want to go to Tuscany, what do you mean? The Tuscan countryside? Florence? the Tuscan coast? Chianti? Southern Tuscany? Pisa? Lucca? San Gimignano?
People are always saying they want to go to Tuscany. I suspect they want the countryside with cute little hilltowns, but it's not clear.
In your original plan you have 2 nights in Rome. That's one day for one of the great capitols of the Western world, a city with any number of important sights. If you only have one day, skip Rome.
In general, every time you change location, you lose a minimum of one-half day. When traveling independently, you have to check out of your hotel, find your way to your next location, and check in. If you're training, you need to get yourselves and your bags to the train station, buy the tickets, find the right track and the right car. If you're driving, you need to add the time it takes to pick up a rental car, find your route, and possibly find parking when you arrive. Allow time to get lost whether on foot or in a car.
Fortunately you have plenty of time to massage your itinerary and a good source of help here at Fodors. And look elsewhere on the Internet (Tripadvisor's forum has good advice about Sicily) and borrow some guidebooks out of the library. For all the information on the web, I still find guidebooks very useful, particularly the Michelin Green Guides. You may also be able to borrow travel DVDs from your library.

Cairns, Australia (PressExposure) May 29, 2009 -- Dedicated to helping others realising their true potential and finding a way out from underneath their daily stressors, local Personal Development Specialist Gillian Tarawhiti loves sharing her knowledge on 'how we get what we get' and 'how to overcome the barriers that hold us back'. Mrs Tarawhiti acknowledges that many people struggle with applying the principles successfully and puts this down to a lack of understanding on how this Universal Laws works.
Mrs Tarawhiti is a seasoned trainer, presenter and motivational coach with over 20 years experience in helping others. Having faced a series of life challenges which could have destroyed her life, she made a decision to take responsibility for her own life at and early age and used those experiences to help others.
From the onset Mrs Tarawhiti realised that in order to get her message out to the broad population she had to do things outside her comfort zone so she started writing articles on Personal Development. She is now considered an expert article writer in this field; her articles have been picked up by over 700 publishers worldwide.
Her next step was to run workshops locally and nationally and whilst she had some success her major successes came from providing live workshops via the internet, where her audience grew exponentially. Her most popular workshop is 'The Secret behind The Secret' where she gives clear examples and tools of how the Law of Attraction works and how to overcome the emotional barriers that hold you back from getting what you want.
Patricia O'Brien from California says "I participated in your (Gillian's) Skype sessions on the Law of Attraction, and I can't begin to tell you what an inspiration you have been (and I'm looking forward to participating more!). I was pretty much being pushed out of my position of CEO at an organization, so I interviewed for a highly competitive position, and from the beginning to the glorious end of the 4 interviews I participated (which lasted about 1 month), I used the Law of Attraction principles and wrote the "why I want to be..." and "why I will be" worksheets religiously... And I was awarded the position!! (And I immediately thought... "I really need to express some gratitude to Gillian!" Your presentations and the principles of the Law of Attraction will be with me always! Thank you. Thank you. I am really looking forward to learning more!
Mrs Tarawhiti says the convenience of the internet has meant that people can stay in the comfort of their own homes whilst participating in these online sessions, they can interact with me the same way you would if you were in a face-to-face sessions. Because these workshops are sort after - her online session are run in several different time zones to accommodate those who want to participate. The Law of Attraction is simple, it doesn't require any special equipment, you don't have to be highly educated-you just need to listen. And when you can do that you life will change for the better.

The Cyprus crisis and its international tax regime: what multinationals should know - .PDF file.
Cyprus has been a member of the European Union (EU) since 2004. The country has long been known for its low corporate income tax rate and absence of withholding taxes on payments of interest, dividends and royalties paid to non-residents. This attractive tax environment, coupled with an extensive network of double tax treaties and favourable corporate laws and freedom of capital within the EU, has made Cyprus a centre for multinationals establishing holding companies, investment funds, trusts and other special-purpose entities.
The financial stress in Cyprus is different from that in other EU countries. It does not stem from a sovereign debt crisis and deep government deficits. Rather, the financial crisis arose from the investments that a number of Cypriot financial institutions made in Greek bonds and other assets with severely depressed valuations. In an effort to stabilise these banks, the Eurogroup of finance ministers, along with the International Monetary Fund, has agreed to a €10bn package of assistance for Cyprus. As part of the package, the Central Bank of Cyprus placed significant withdrawal restrictions on depositors, which are gradually being relaxed by decrees issued on a weekly basis by the Central Bank of Cyprus. In a recent relaxation, the restrictive measures for branches and subsidiaries of qualifying foreign banks in Cyprus were lifted completely, with the result that these banks are now fully exempt from the capital controls in connection with transactions of their international business clients…

New Customer Offer
Best Uses
By val
from 30022
Thank you, but NO!
I have been using this mask for about a month, twice a week.NO Results at all. Not after the first use (which I would never expect to see), not after the eighth. I feel like I am being totally fooled by the promises this compny made. Will NEVER use these products again & will never recommend them to somebody else. Not worth a penny!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Laurie
from Murrieta, CA
Love this product
I use this product overnight at least once a week for mouth lines. Works well and has never irritated my skin after being on for 6+ hrs. The only challenge is keeping it on for that long, your skin needs to be dry and oil free when you apply. My only complaint, other than the results being temporary, is the new package has no English on it at all unlike the previous packaging.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
By Lucy
from East brunswick, NJ
Nice Product
This is a very good product but it doesn't stick well to skin and comes off easily. I read someone used bandage tape to help the pad stay on longer, I will give that a try.
By gooch
from corinth, ms
Love this product. Cool, Refreshing and I have seen immediate results. It minimizes the fine lines around my eyes.
By granny
from Bella Vista Arkansas
Maybe yes, maybe no.
At times I feel this product does help with the moisture absorbtion and the next time I don't see much change. It is up in the air as to my continued use. I am giving it a good try.

New yeast could lead to hangover-free wine
WINE lovers were given the perfect news yesterday – a hangoverfree vintage is in sight.
The breakthrough yeast could put a stop to the 'morning after the night before' feeling
But the breakthrough is unlikely to be popular with environmentalists because it uses a genetically modified ingredient.
US scientists have modified the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is widely used in the wine and beer industries.
They say the new GM yeast not only offers "staggering" improvements in a food's nutritive value but could also end the "morning after the night before" feeling.
Professor Yong-Su Jin of Illinois University said the yeast could be cloned to boost malolactic fermentation which makes wine smooth.
This would also prevent the improper fermentation which generates the toxic by-products that can cause hangovers.
The breakthrough was made possible by the development of a "genome knife".
Professsor Jin told the journal Applied and Environmental Microbiology: "Fermented foods – such as beer, wine and bread – are made with polyploid strains of yeast, which means they contain multiple copies of genes in the genome.
"Until now, it's been difficult to do genetic engineering in polyploid strains because if you altered a gene in one copy of the genome, an unaltered copy would correct the one that had been changed."
With the new system, scientists can increase the good qualities and eliminate the bad. GM products are controversial in Britain. About 15 years ago, opposition from concerned consumers forced supermarkets to stop selling them. But Professor Jin said the new methods could overcome this.

When automobiles started to change significantly in the 40's, they shifted to a "streamlined" shape which was more aerodynamic and sleek than early Model T's and the like had been. But as America rolled out of World War II and gas was becoming cheaper, big, boaty sharply-shaped sedans and coupes took over the roads and hearts of American car culture. The ebb and flow of sharpness versus curvature in automobiles comes and goes with each passing generation, but one thing is measurably clear: when times are good and gas is cheap, sleek design goes out the window.

The Best Shows in NYC This Weekend: Tame Impala + Tom Verlaine + Trans Am + Alvvays + DJ Shadow + Body/Head + Bill Cosby + Deerhoof + PUP + Iron Chic + The Menzingers + more goodness
Written by Patrick McNamara
Happy November! Hope you're raged up, blissed out, and ready to chill in darkness for the next 6 months or so. Helllll, yeah. Can't wait. Really looking forward to that. Big fan of turning back the clocks and making everything worse. This is 2014 A.D. Don't most farmers have outdoor lights and glow in the dark robots to grow their shit now? Someone's gotta change this tradition, man. If they can strip Pluto of planet status we can totally defrock Turn Back The Clock. Vote #TURNBACKNO
Alas, we press on and forge ahead. Whattya say we talk about good shows this week? Who knows, maybe this dynamic digital feature will give off a little flicker of light in an otherwise shady start to a heavy season. #PARTY
Thursday - November 6th, 2014 A.D.
Exposed: Songs for Unseen Andy Warhol Films starts a three night run at BAM. This is exactly as it sounds and the players involved include Dean Wareham + Martin Rev + Tom Verlaine + Bradford Cox + Eleanor Friedberger. You know the bands these people are/were also in, right? OK. Cool. So I don't have to get into it. That's what I figured.
Kim Gordon + Bill Nace = Body/Head = Union Pool tonight (and again tomorrow). Go. Don't go. Kim Gordon is just a living punk legend and an icon to many. So either way. This goodness is what it is.
PC Worship play Trans-Pecos. I like this band and told you as much. (I remember writing that way back on September 3rd, 2014. - those were different days, my friend). Go see main man Justin Frye mash some shit up and make it sound cool.
Another very intimate, small show of note. Stevie Wonder will play "Songs in The Key of Life" at Madison Square Garden tonight. And like Mac DeMarco, what can be said about Stevie Wonder that hasn't already been said? "I don't know what to say! I don't know what to say! Baby. Bbbbbbbaby. Baby."
(*this will only make sense if you watch the video below - but let's face it - how many of you really do?)
Remember when I said Deerhoof was playing 3 nights at Baby's this week? Well, that's still happening and on this particular night Trans Am (that profile is so old it's older than the so old joke I made to open it) is opening. This "Post-Rock" band was one of the musical bridges that helped me cross over from liking shitty music to liking good music. Thanks, Trans Am. I owe you one. Here's a great song. Those who actually stream things are gonna love it.
And tonight's the start of the NY Comedy Festival. Did you know we also list comedy shows in NYC? It's true. I would never ever lie to you about something so important.
(Posting the same video twice. Because I have punker rock DIY principles.
Other notable shows = Left & Right at Shea Stadium + Avi Buffalo at Mercury Lounge + Nick Jonas at Rough Trade (GAH!!!!!) + Tig Notaro at Town Hall
Friday - November 7th, 2014 A.D.
Well, this is clearly the best night of the entire week. Here are a few good things. But there are a LOT more where this came from.
IT'S PUNK POP NOT POP PUNK. The Menzingers and Spraynard lead a really good punk pop one at Brooklyn Night Bazaar. Like almost always, it's free. And spacious. In a good way. Speaking of good here is my favorite Menzingers song because I'm a sucker for those dueling vocals tho and POP PUNK IS NOT A DIRTY WORD YOU GUYS.
Speaking of punk-pop-pop-punk, PUP + Chumped are also really good at making that. See this pretty punk 1-2 pop punch at Mercury Lounge tonight. It's going to be FUN. (I will now cease writing the word "pop" and desist typing the word "punk" for the remainder of this dynamic digital article - so help me blob.)
The Brooklyn Electronic Music Festival starts tonight. Go ahead and click their name and it'll circle you right back to a different portal of our website where you'll find out who is playing and why they are so awesome and how much and where.
And such as. And so forth. On and on this dynamic digital article goes.
Allison Crutchfield + Waxahatchee + Radiator Hospital play Asbury Lanes. I vouch for all three. That's why their names are linked like that. I feel as if we've been over all of this before. But I can't be sure. You see, there are no rear view mirrors here at Whoa My Blobness. That is why in 10 years I have never updated a band profile to better reflect their current embrace of styles, influences, and chill new sounds. It's a punker thing. You wouldn't understand.
Other notable shows = Hannibal Buress at Town Hall + Cold Specks at Rough Trade + Marc Maron at NYU Skirball Center + Peter Hook & The Light at Irving Plaza + Excepter at Death by Audio + Stepdad at Brooklyn Bowl + Exposed: Songs for Unseen Warhol Films at BAM
Saturday - November 8th, 2014 A.D.
LI's Iron Chic + PA's Beach Slang lead the way at Brooklyn Night Bazaar. I really like Iron Chic. They are 1000% fun. Do you remember one of my many Golden Rules? It goes a little something like this. BANDS: when YOU have fun up there WE have fun down here. This one is free. WORTH IT.
(btw, Beach Slang keep putting out great EPs and what's up with that???)
Philly's Restorations play Mercury Lounge. File Under: Good Band. I told you more about them once. If you missed it, good news, life is full of digitally dynamic second chances. The goodness is there, ready for your embrace. It's easy. It's all in the click.
Toronto's Alvvays + Toronto's Absolutely Free + Toron... no... Brooklyn's Baked play Rough Trade. That's a 3-for-1 triple crown prime time trifecta right there. I would totally go to this show. But I'm not. Because I'm going to see…. (please wait until after the video)
….Bill Cosby at Carnegie Hall! Dr. Cos. Cliff Hux. The Pride of Hillman College himself. Yes, I am finally going to see Billy Cosby do standup. Boom goes the bucket list. Please enjoy the following classic film below. I laughed and laughed and laughed along to this when I was a little kid. I just watched it again. I'm pleased to report it 100% stills holds up.
Other notable shows = The Dismemberment Plan at Bowery Ballroom + Screaming Females at Asbury Lanes + FKA Twigs at Terminal 5 + Nick Offerman at Beacon Theatre + Fort Romeau at Glasslands + Joey Bada$$ at Irving Plaza + Dream Police at Saint Vitus + MillionYoung at Shea Stadium + Mark Lanegan at The Studio at Webster Hall
Sunday - November 9th, 2014 A.D.
Australia's Tame Impala + New Jersey's most famous guitar heroes Delicate Steve (it's a "Butterfly" thing - you wouldn't understand) play Beacon Theater. Should be some good psych shreds. Tune in, turn on, drop out.
Longtime post-something indie rock vets Versus (born circa 1990) play Rough Trade with a bunch of solid peeps. And making their triumphantly loud return after a long quiet is perfect punksters, The Rogers Sisters. In my mind, that band invented Brooklyn cool circa 2000 A.D. I was there. I lived it. I'm glad to see them back.
Or, you can get into the garage and cozy up in your fuzz mobile with Pujol and Shellshag + a Special Guest (please be Michael Jordan) at Death By Audio. As mentioned, not too many shows left there. So consider getting into this fast fading goodness while you can. No regrets. One world. One love. Imagine. Hope.
Other notable shows = Bob Odenkirk at Gramercy Theatre + I wonder if "Better Call Saul" is going to be good + I mean it will probably be good but will it be GREAT + Let's cross our fingers and hope for the best

My First Paddington Bear £4.99 @ Amazon
This is a cute little Christmas gift! Amazon has marked the My First Paddington Bear down from £9.99 to only £4.99 and that price also includes free delivery. This would make an adorable Christmas gift for a friend expecting a baby, to add to their little collection.
Click here to get some bear at Amazon(Expired)
I adored Paddington Bear as a child and his penchant for marmalade sandwiches. I remember demanding that I too have marmalade sandwiches and that's how I developed my taste for it. Such a pity that the creators sold out to Marmite. What were they thinking?
Anyway, this 20cm Paddington Bear is soft and squishy and utterly adorable. He comes bedecked in the classic Paddington Bear clothing with his bright red hat and his blue coat with the red and yellow buttons.
This particular Paddington Bear has baby safe eyes so he is suitable from birth and for a baby, his 20cm size makes him large and cuddly.
Thanks to andywedge at HUKD!

LISTEN: "Smokey Eyes" On Soundcloud
"a smart and sardonic songwriter who lays sharp lyricism over a punchy
barrage of emo-backed alternative rock." – Consequence of Sound
Today, via a premiere with Consequence of Sound, we are introduced to a new voice in angst-riddled, youthful rebellion; Lincoln. On "Smokey Eyes", the first track off of his upcoming EP A Constant State of Ohio, Lincoln exhibits the same sort of sardonic, intelligent lyrical self-reflection that make artists like Jeff Magnum or Max Bemis so special. Sonically, "Smokey Eyes" is chockful of addictive melodies, churning guitars and driving percussion. You can listen to "Smokey Eyes" now on Soundcloud, and it will be available on most download services along with the vinyl preorder on December 9th. A Constant State of Ohio is due out January 27th on I Surrender Records.
Lincoln, who hails from Cincinnati, Ohio, has a sound that is equal parts pretentious and angsty. He first caught the ear of his now label, I Surrender Records, when Sam Means, previously of The Format, tweeted a link to a YouTube cover Lincoln had done of one their songs. On his debut EP A Constant State of Ohio, which was produced by Brett Romnes (I Am The Avalanche), we get a chance to peer into the pure honesty and quirky juxtaposition of self-awareness and outward teenage rebellion that comes across as something you've never heard before.
Or maybe you have…
Just listen.

For an artist whose career was seemingly stalled through much of the 1980s and '90s, Dwight Twilley has returned with a vengeance since the turn of the century, releasing four studio albums and several archival live discs between 2001 and 2010, and just as 2010's Green Blimp found Twilley sounding energetic, engaged, and full of fresh ideas, 2011's Soundtrack is an impressive set that sounds as impassioned as anything the man recorded in the '70s, but also captures the lessons and experiences of a lifetime on plastic. Twilley was asked to write some songs for a proposed documentary film about his career, and those tunes grew into Soundtrack, which is the most explicitly autobiographical music he's released to date. "Tulsa Town" celebrates Twilley's formative years in his home town, "Bus Ticket" captures the dreams of a young rock & roller heading to the big city in search of a break, "Good Things Come Hard" ponders how far fate has taken him and how steep the price of success can be, "The Cards Will Fall" examines a relationship that took a long time to finally come apart, and "My Life" is self-explanatory. Twilley isn't afraid to bare his soul on these songs, and even when he isn't telling his own story, he's not afraid to say what's on his mind, particularly on the fiery "God Didn't Do It" and the smart and impressionistic title song. The songs on Soundtrack are quite personal, but just as importantly, they're very good, built around strong Beatlesque melodies and first-generation rock & roll, and Twilley's vocals are great, a shade more weathered than they once were but still supple, and an ideal vehicle for these stories of a fully lived life. The guitars by Twilley and Bill Pitcock, IV fit the songs just right, and though Twilley should have persuaded Doug Wiley to use a better sounding drum machine for the album's percussion, for the most part, the production suits the material even when the edges are a bit rough. And the contributions from Taylor Hanson and Susan Cowsill mean that three generations of great pop music players are represented on Soundtrack, and here Twilley sounds less like an elder statesman than a vital artist who has lots to say, and compelling ways to say it, even as he looks back on a career that's now spanned five decades. It's no great shock that Twilley still has good records left in him, but what is surprising is that Soundtrack is this good and a brave creative departure to boot, one that pays off bigger dividends than anyone had a right to expect. ~ Mark Deming

ORIGINAL PUB: Aprodisia, 2/2008
SETTING: England, 1815
SERIES: House of Pleasure, #1
AUTHOR SITE: link
PURCHASE: link
FROM PUBLISHER: Sexual Satisfaction... Ten years as a sex slave in a Turkish brothel left Lord Valentin Sokorvsky with an insatiable appetite for sex. Now the time has come for him to marry, but finding a woman who can satisfy his lustful desires proves a challenge...until he meets Sara and all he can think about is having her lie under his rock-hard body, begging him to taste and touch her...
Sensual Seduction... Sara Harrison knows she should be shocked and scandalized by Lord Sokorvsky's bold advances, but instead she is secretly aroused by this sensual, seductive man. For beneath her calm and composed manner is a wanton woman who longs for a man's intimate caress. She is most willing to be educated in the art of sensuality, to receive and give pleasure and to succumb to the wild desire that knows no limits...
MY THOUGHTS: Damn, this is one explicit book. Right off the bat Sara caught Valentin in a compromising situation with a servant.
Valentin is about thirty, with dark hair and violet eyes. He was forced into sexual slavery as a child, until he was eighteen. He was forced to have sex then with both men and women and is mostly into women now. He's become wealthy due to owning a shipping company.
His future father-in-law, John Harrison, was at that brothel and bought Valentin's and his friend Peter Howard's freedom since they were English like him. Twelve years later John is low on funds and wants Valentin to marry his younger daughter, Charlotte, but Valentin is interested in his older daughter, twenty-six year old Sara. They marry very early on, within twenty-five pages. Details of the wedding are skipped and the story goes right into their wedding night.
Sara's got dark hair and blue eyes. She's a little too passive and easy going for my taste. There was only a little bit of friction between her and Valentin throughout the story, which spans at least six months. Caroline Ingham, Valentin's jealous ex-mistress, is at the center of some of the drama.
There are at least ten sex scenes between Sara and Valentin and two or three of them involve m/m interaction between Valentin and Peter and about two threesomes with them. Words can't really express how I enjoyed those descriptive sex scenes. It was like a porn film put into words. I think I've read all but two in this series and this is the most explicit and it's certainly not for everyone. It'll leave you longing for a penis.
I really like Peter. He's very close to Valentin and when they were first given their freedom, he was addicted to and was reliant on him, as well as to opium. Peter gets his own story in the second book in this series, Simply Sinful, and I cannot wait to read it.
I was turned off by Sara getting her nipples pierced and by a few of the things that went on sexually. I didn't like rushed kidnapping story right at the very end the mystery as to who's stealing money from the company wasn't very suspenseful.
I received this from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Same review here.


text: HAve any women made an attempt to introduce friends, close or casual, to the black cock experience. Not because some man is pressuring you but because you think they would benefit , married or single. For me, my first experience was like when the "wizard of oz" went from black and white to color. I am the co owner of a bar and I hear so many women complain about their sex lives it's depressing. Would love to see them give bbc a try. Would love to hear thoughts and suggestions.

TEMPE — In case you were wondering what the Arizona State Sun Devils' goals were for their upcoming season, you don't have to look hard.
Plastered throughout the third floor of the Carson Student-Athlete Center — the building connected to Sun Devil Stadium — are signs on every door that say the following:
1. Win Everyday. Men of Character
2. 100% Graduation
3. Pac-12 Champions
4. Rose Bowl Champions
5. National Champions
ASU head coach Todd Graham has always set high expectations for the program since the moment he got the job in 2012. Now in his third year, Graham only has time to care about one thing: championships.
"To our fans, our students, and the Sun Devil nation, anything less than being Pac-12 champions is unsatisfactory," Graham said Saturday during ASU's annual media day.
The Sun Devils came one win shy of achieving that goal last season, falling to Stanford in the Pac-12 Championship. That loss — still fresh in the minds of every returning ASU player — is what made them come up with their rally cry for 2014: "Unfinished Business."
"I really like this group's leadership; it's the best leadership we've had in my three years, and everything is just better," Graham said.
Another improvement Graham has been able to do is earn respect for his program in the preseason. ASU enters the year ranked 18th in the Coaches' poll — the first time they've been ranked in the preseason since 2008 where they opened at 16th.
"To be picked eighteenth in the country is respect, that's expectation. Winning six or seven games is not going to get it done," Graham said.
He also hopes to see the day where winning anything less than 10 games a year is unsatisfactory in the minds of Sun Devil fans.
Graham has already made a significant impact on the program, taking ASU to bowl games in his first two seasons, and winning the Pac-12 South for the first time since dividing the conference into two divisions.
Instilling in his players, coaches, and fans the need to have the highest of expectations year in and out is the lasting mentality he hopes to have during his tenure.
He also believes that he has the tools on hand to make all of his goals a reality.
"We're in better shape than we were last year, and we are in a lot better shape than we were two years ago, in terms of being able to accomplish that goal. This is the best staff we've ever had. I think we've got so many things down that really help you to be a better football team as a whole," Graham said.
The team returns a potential Heisman Trophy candidate in quarterback Taylor Kelly, who will get to distribute the ball to dynamic playmakers D.J. Foster and Jaelen Strong.
Foster is confident ASU has the right leader in place behind center.
"He's number one in my books in every category," Foster said of Kelly. "I definitely trust his leadership. I never second guess on that."
Added Kelly, "We are going to be one of the teams with great chemistry. We care about each other, and we're going to have a great season this year."

This Irish Deviled Egg recipe is a fun twist on the classic St. Patrick's Day recipe corned beef and cabbage.
We're more than halfway through February and in just a few short weeks it will be cabbage's time to shine! I eat cabbage all year long. It's quick and easy to make and I love it stuffed, roasted, or boiled but on St. Patrick's Day cabbage gets to be a real star right alongside it's faithful companion corned beef. These two make quite the pair and it's no wonder why. They are pretty much amazing together. I usually make Corned Beef Cabbage Rolls for dinner on St. Patrick's Day but since I'm doing my best to stick to low carb I'll be skipping the mashed potatoes, parsnips, and carrots. That doesn't mean I'm going to miss out on corned beef and cabbage though and I have come up with a really fun, delicious, low carb way to enjoy them. Say hello to Irish Deviled Eggs!
I know, it sounds a little odd at first but as soon as you bite into one you're going to be sold. The corned beef and cabbage add just enough flavor that you know you're celebrating St. Patty's Day. I used sliced corned beef from my deli. It only took a slice or two for the eggs and the rest went on a Reuben sandwich much to my guy's pleasant surprise. the cabbage was also finally diced and then microwaved just long enough to soften it. Then I added mayonnaise, Dijon mustard and a little salt to the egg yolks and mixed them up with an immersion blender to get the filling nice and smooth. that's a trick Melinda taught me and now I wouldn't do it any other way. It makes the egg yolks come out so nice and creamy. Pipe the filling into the egg yolks and Voila! Irish Deviled Eggs.
Whether you are throwing a St. Patrick's Day party or just hanging out at home with the family you can serve these along with some green beer, and maybe a Mint Oreo Layered Dessert and you've got yourself a St. Patrick's Day dinner fit for a king…or maybe a leprechaun.

In order for hematein to attach itself to the nuclear components within a cell, a mordant must be present. A mordant is a chemical that serves as a link between the dye and the substrate. The result is an insoluble compound that helps adhere the dye to the cells.
The most useful mordants for hematoxylin are salts of aluminum, iron, tungsten, and occasionally lead. These are classified respectively as :
The type of mordant used influences the type of tissue components stained and the final color.

He holds his grief and sits down to think
Forced by the burden he carries within
He wonders how long must this go on?
A never ending show of pain and despair
A sharp pain in his pounding chest
Reminds him of sorrow, his closest friend
He shuts his eyes and sees the dark
Only to be lit by images of his past
Flashing like bolts of lightning in the night
Life is a battle, thoughts can kill
If only the mind could be tamed to be still
He ponders for a while only to listen
To questions that arise from the depths
Of doubt that engulf his troubled mind
A gentle breeze blows on his face
Slowing down his overactive mind's pace
I have struggled and 've come this far
Can't stop now knowing there's more
A lifetime's worth, much I could still learn
The battlefield has been the mind
He creates silence by purging his thoughts
There is every reason for me to live
If not, I`ll spend the rest to find why?
And help others and be set free of mine

College has almost started and so I had the idea to make a budget-planner for college-students with an excel-template.
My own studies are long ago and everything seems to be more expensive now. No good news for parents who want to support their children with payments for the college. But how much does it really cost? What expenses are there?
Now you can download the budget-planner for students and fill out everything what is necessary for the living of your kid. I don't think I've listed all the expenses. Some are individual and different (like for instance medicine or health insurance), some I just forgot.
When you fill out the list and make adjustments to it, don't forget to be a little bit negative. Maybe the costs will be higher as you think or expect. It would be bad, if you realise it to late..

VOIVOD shot their parts for the "We Carry On" video in the San Francisco Bay Area last weekend, and have since handed the footage over to the workers at George Lucas's Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) for editing and post-production.ILM, who are said to be longtime VOIVOD fans and have also worked on special effects for films such as "Spider-Man", "Blade", and this year's "The Hulk", are "gonna spin their little trickery and that's gonna be some kind of sick, five-minute freak visual for the first VOIVOD song," former METALLICA and current VOIVOD bassist Jason Newsted (a.k.a. Jasonic) said. "They can do anything, man. Anything you could come up with in your head they can put on the screen, so it's gonna be pretty amazing." VOIVOD's upcoming self-titled CD is due on March 4 through Newsted's Chophouse Records (in association with Surfdog Records).

Improve the quality of Auslan instruction for Queensland Deaf Kids
Improve the quality of Auslan instruction for Queensland Deaf Kids
There is a dreadful injustice being served Queensland's deaf and hard of hearing (HoH) children.
In 2005 Education Queensland was sued for discrimination against 2 deaf children who required access to education through the provision of Auslan interpreters, one family won the case and the other family won a year later on appeal. As a result the Bligh government supplied the families with NAATI trained interpreters.
Then the 2007-08 Queensland Government State Budget committed $30 million over 4 years to transition to Auslan as the language of instruction for Deaf and hearing impaired students in Queensland schools, and introduced EI's (hearing teacher aids with Auslan experience) and ALM's (deaf teacher aids fluent in Auslan who model the language in various situations).
There are no formal qualifications required for an EI other than a willingness to learn, and no qualifications are listed for the ALM position either. These positions are also categorised as simple teacher aid positions offering basic teacher aid wage.
To deaf and HoH children these positions would be just as vital as speech therapy, and physio therapy and yet they do not appear to be recognised by a suitable title, suitable qualifications and suitable wage.
There is some short courses offered to staff as professional development but they are not enough to ensure fluency in Auslan, if these courses are to continue they need to be reviewed and improved.
The two families who won their cases were actually given access to fully trained NAATI qualified Auslan interpreters. The rest of the deaf and hard of hearing children are offered minimally trained teacher aids.
My daughter started school 3 years ago and had attended an Early Intervention Unit previous to this with Education Queensland since she was 18 months old. She has a moderate to severe hearing loss and limited verbal skills and Auslan was never offered or recommended to us, that is years of isolation and missed learning opportunity.
Quite frankly this is a disgusting state of affairs. From the above evidence it is clearly obvious that the Bligh government and Education Queensland of that time did not take the need to provide a quality education through the provision of properly trained Auslan Interpreters to our deaf children seriously enough
An EI with limited Auslan skills could be likened to English teacher with a thick unintelligible foreign accent, and employing an ALM based on the assumption that all deaf people know Auslan is simply not correct and unprofessional. We wouldn't tolerate this sort of practice for our hearing children why are we placing deaf children in such a position?
Lev Vygotsky's scaffolding theory of proximal learning suggests that teachers use cooperative learning exercises where less competent children develop with help from more skilful peers - within the zone of proximal development. The only way our deaf children can have full access to this sort of learning environment or any learning experience is through the provision of skilful Auslan translators. Deaf children have a right to a quality education, like all other children, in a language and environment that maximises their potential.
Being deaf is shrouded with many myths, people believe hearing aids or cochlear implants fix everything, they don't. Others assume many deaf people can lip read, lip reading is very challenging and even the most expert are guessing 60% of the time. Our deaf kids need access to fluent Auslan interpreters in order to allow them the same access to education their hearing counterparts have.
The way things currently stand our deaf and hard of hearing children's basic human rights to access education in Queensland is being denied. This situation must be changed, so that parents don't have to uproot or separate their families in order to get the educational needs of their deaf or HoH child met.
Position requirements must be reviewed, training improved and only skilled fluent Auslan users be accepted for such positions, introduce testing to the interview through an auditioning process.

Mister Nibbles has been captured and taken to the yellow house across the street from Elliot's park! Squirrels aren't meant to live indoors (not even stuffed ones like Mister Nibbles), so Elliot and his friends come up with a plan to rescue their new friend. It's going to take a lot of teamwork. Can Elliot, Crash, Chip, and Twitch save Mister Nibbles before it's too late?
Meet Elliot and all his friends!
Elliot is a very smart squirrel who loves to solve any problem he finds.
His best friend Chip is a hilarious klutz. He's gotten into some interesting scrapes and trouble, including a celebrated encounter with the monkey bars in which one of his two abnormally large front teeth was broken.
Crash is the only flying squirrel in the park. She's just visiting from England, but it doesn't look like she's leaving any time soon!
Then there's Twitch, Elliot's sister. She's good at finding things, especially her favorite sugary drink -- soda pop.
Mister Nibbles is no ordinary squirrel! He's quiet and thoughtful and says the funniest things. What Elliot and his friends don't know is that Mister Nibbles is actually a stuffed squirrel.
There is a birthday party in Elliot's park. One of the birthday presents is a squirrel named Mister Nibbles. Elliot and his squirrel friends plan a way to save Mister Nibbles. What they do not seem to know is that Mister Nibbles is a stuffed animal that talks when its ear is squeezed. Crash, the flying squirrel, follows Mister Nibbles as the boy takes the stuffed squirrel home. Rescuing Mister Nibbles is not an easy task for Elliot and his friends once they get inside the boy's house. There are illustrations of this squirrel rescue adventure. The endpapers provide an overview of Elliot's park. The cast of characters appear at the end of the story with brief descriptions and, in most cases, a picture of each squirrel character. There are a few activities in the back of the book. For example, one can make Elliot and Chip's Trail Mix with the recipe that is included, create their own adventure in Elliot's Park, or make a tree constellation. This story is the first of Elliot's adventures; there is a preview of Elliot's next adventure. Check out the website which provides a look of the actual park that inspired Elliot's Park.

The stream is run from an Apple Mac Mini running Boinx Software's incredible mimolive video production software. This software allows Jeff to switch cameras, add graphics and helpful information to the stream, and more.
To enhance the quality of picture, Jeff uses Webcam Settings, which is an app that hacks the video feed from webcams and allows precise controls of the various settings of the video. This is especially useful in providing a better view of the owls at night in low-light situations. Jeff uses a similar utility to control the robotic cams remotely via software.
We have several cameras strategically placed, which are a combination of Logitech C920 & C615 HD Webcams as well as two robotic BCC950 Conference Cams. You may also see several nest Outdoor Cams within certain views, which are not used for streaming to the live stream, but rather to provide alternative views and recording capabilities for use in other ways.
Since only 2 USB cameras can be connected at once to the hardware, all cameras are connected to separate 30-meter amplified USB cables that run to our "tech closet" where the Mac Mini is, out of site from the nest. Different cameras can be quickly swapped out this way to provide optimal views as needed, and the active cameras can be switched to and from, along with combined picture-in-picture and zoomed shots thanks to mimoLive.
The stream is output in 1080p directly to Ustream.tv by a Taradek VidiU, a video encoding device that has a hardwired uplink to a high-bandwidth internet connection. (Note: for connection reliability, the stream is often sent at 720p).
Facebook Live streams are provided on the OKC Owl Cam Facebook Page through one of many of mimoLive's numerous built-in streaming protocols. We do not stream to Facebook Live 24/7 as we do with Ustream, but generally will take to FB Live when something noteworthy is happening or expected to happen on the nest.
Real-time weather data of the conditions within 20 feet from the nest are collected using a Ambient Weather WS-2090-IP IP Wireless Weather Station. The weather station reads the conditions and wirelessly transmits them to a receiver in the tech closet. This receiver is connected to the Mac Mini, which also runs Tee-Boy Software's Weathersnoop 3 software. Weathersnoop reports this data both to the OKCOwlCam station page at Weather Underground, as well as to the mimoLive live video software, which inserts it into the live video streams.

Post Sickness.
It has been a rough two weeks lately. I guess I can't really say that it's been rough, but not the most fun. I had been sick w/congestion, snot, and a cough for a week and a half. It really hindered my workouts as I talked about a couple posts ago. I really haven't done much the last two weeks - maybe a workout here or there, but I just didn't have the energy.
Poison Ivy.
I finally got over whatever it was that was bothering me. I have been hunting (deer season here in Missouri) the last few days and it hadn't really been productive. One of the days I was hunting - I was in a deer stand 16 foot high in a tree and kept getting poked with a stick when I looked left. Come to find out yesterday, that stick was either poison ivy or poison oak. I woke up yesterday and had quite the break-out on my ear and back of my head. My ear is swollen, and all poison ivy like. Not fun.
Running fun.
I have not ran in a while until today. I hate not being able to run, but I really couldn't do much of it lately. Today, despite my poison ivy bothering me [and I didn't know if I should or not, but I did], I went for a run. It was a cold 2.23 miles, but I enjoyed it. It was fun to run again. I could tell though after today's run that I'm going to have to start going to the YMCA to run or use the treadmill at home. I'm not a fan of running inside but I'm also not a fan of sitting and being lazy :)
Do you have any Poison Ivy treatments or remedies???

...No. Not at all. You should be ashamed for saying that.
best how>? they're pretty standard shock value death metal lyrics if you ask me.....and it still isn't as "offensive" as cannibal corpse lyrics.... or maybe your right, maybe I'm not dumber for having read those...
lol, of course theyre not the best lyrics ever. i just think theyre funny, nothing special about them really.
i dont really care what the lyrics are if the instrumentation and voice itself are so good.
fair enough, i failed to read the tone of your comment correctly
haha wasnt my comment, dude. it was mikem1234...
i was just agreeing with you and saying why the lyrics dont matter to me.
Album Rating: 4.5Eaten is so good
Digging: Converge - The Dusk in Us
Album Rating: 3.5It really is. While it's playing, I actually find myself thinking "Hey, being eaten doesn't sound so bad...wait..."
Album Rating: 5.0are you done?.... I mean is that it...? was that the joke?
Album Rating: 3.5Uh. Yeah, that was pretty much it.
Album Rating: 4.5is it based off the story of that german cannibal? or is it just mindless gore lyrics as usual?
nvm just checked wikipedia and it said it is about that german guyThis Message Edited On 10.16.08
Album Rating: 4.0i came so close to giving this a 5... so fucking close. Eaten is a modern death metal classic.
If it was Mikael in this album though, it would probably be the best death metal album i own.
Album Rating: 4.5peter's vocals on here seem way better of a fit
Eaten is so funny, it rivals Suffocation's Entrails of You
Album Rating: 4.5Akerfeldt is a god but Tagtgren just seems like a better fit for this band
Album Rating: 4.0His low growls really surprised me when I first heard them. I had picked up RTC a couple months ago, and I really liked it, but I didnt want to get NMF because Mikael was not on it, and I had never heard of Tagtgren. I was really surprised how good it was.
what other bands has he fronted?
EDIT: OHHH!!! hypocrisy!!! I love them! good shit.This Message Edited On 10.17.08

wikiHow to Make a Lamb Card for Easter
Three Methods:Hand drawn lamb cardChild's hand print lamb cardPhoto or antique image lamb cardCommunity Q&A
Lambs tend to be born mainly in spring and they have long been associated with Easter time. Adding a lamb to a card is kid's play and the resulting card can be used for invitations, greetings or any other use you have in mind
Hand drawn lamb card
1In pencil, draw the vague outline of a lamb. Keep it simple and leave lots of room in the middle for the "wool". Don't forget to include a tail, as most lambs have tails for a while.
3Use the marker to draw in the face and legs.
4Add a message to the front of the card. Perhaps "Happy Easter" or "I love ewe", etc.
5Write inside the card. Post or give it to the recipient.
Child's hand print lamb card
A very cute variation on the hand drawn theme is to use a child's hand print as the lamb's body.
1Have your child dip his or her hand into black craft paint. Make a hand print. Allow to dry.
2Add the cotton wool or buttons to the body but leave the finger tip prints as the legs and the thumb tip print for the head.
3Draw a tail in with a black marker.
4Glue a small blue sequin on for an eye or stick on a googly eye.
5Add a message as above.
Photo or antique image lamb card
Scrapbook or embellish a photo or an antique image of a lamb.

I am selling the domain gift-wishlist.com (as well as the web page template that's at that address now) to the highest reasonable bidder. While this domain holds lots of promise I have not and will not have the time to develop it. It is registered with godaddy.com and expires on 07-aug-2005. Please send a PM with offers. Thanks,

Happy Fall to everyone! The long days and warm weather have been perfect for the pétanque season here in Depot Park.
Our monthly tournaments will continue until October, as well as the ongoing Summer Doubles League. Our end of year party, the Annual Dinner & Meeting, will take place in late October and we expect to have a capacity crowd once again at The Westerbeke Ranch. We'll feast and celebrate together, as well as have the announcement of the Board Election results.
As always, we hope you join us in Depot Park during the week for daily casual play.
