Is black and white photography ideal for travel?
Is black and white photography ideal for travel?
"It's an extraordinarily important first step but it really is just a first step"
For a number of years in the early 1990 Cuban law permitted the construction of some condominium style buildings where foreigners could buy an apartment. Those who bought these are now able to sell them to other foreigners who are not residents in Cuba. After half a century in which they could only swap houses in a creaky, bureaucratic and often corrupt state-run process known as permuta (exchange), which involved finding two properties of roughly equal value and then getting state approval to transfer the title, Cubans are relishing their new-found economic freedom.

If Walls Could Talk

Why did the flushing toilet take two centuries to catch on? Why did Samuel Pepys never give his mistresses an orgasm? Why did medieval people sleep sitting up? When were the two "dirty centuries"? Why did gas lighting cause Victorian ladies to faint? Why, for centuries, did people fear fruit? All these questions will be answered in this juicy, smelly, and truly intimate history of home life. Lucy Worsley takes us through the bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen, covering the architectural history of each room, but concentrating on what people actually did in bed, in the bath, at the table, and at the stove. From sauce-stirring to breast-feeding, teeth-cleaning to masturbation, getting dressed to getting married, this book will make you see your home with new eyes.
Praise for If Walls Could Talk:
"Dr. Lucy Worsley charts the evolution of the British home … It's a fascinating journey."-Daily Mail (UK )
"Anecdotes, jokes and fascinating facts come thick and fast … Worsley's eye for quirky detail is so compelling you quickly find yourself gripped by the most unlikely subjects."-Mail on Sunday (UK )
"Saucy intimacies and salacious secrets … I was glued."-Country Life (UK )
Lucy Worsley is, by day, Chief Curator at Historic Royal Palaces, the independent charity that looks after The Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Kensington Palace State Apartments, the Banqueting House in Whitehall, and Kew Palace in Kew Gardens. By night, she is a writer and presenter, most recently author of Cavalier: a Tale of Passion, Chivalry and Great Houses, described by the Mail on Sunday as 'a remarkable achievement by an immensely talented and innovative historian.'
Why did the flushing toilet take centuries to catch on? When did strangers stop sharing beds? And how did people brush their teeth with fish bones? Historical curator Lucy Worsley details the intimate history of the bedroom, bathroom and kitchen in her new book. More at NPR.org

Is there a way of running a single MySQL query, which selects data from various tables and returns each table individually that can be assigned to an array, in PHP, instead of a query for each table and assigning the results manually to the array?
For instance
// Interpretation:
$multiple = mysql_query("select * from table_a; select * from table_b;");
foreach ($multiple as $table => $results) {
$tables[$table] = $results;
instead of:
$tables = array (
"table_a" => mysql_query ("select * from table_a;"),
"table_b" => mysql_query ("select * from table_b;"),
Any guidance will be most appreciated. Thank you.

8' blue hibiscus flower
This is sold as a blue hibicus but is actually more lavender. Sorry I can't remember the name of it.
The plant is 3 years old and until now produced a steady flow of 6" blossoms. This year it's putting on a show! All of the flowers have been 8"! Amazing.
Here is a link that might be useful: Blue Hibiscus

Sol, I get soooo angry when plants are described as 'blue' and are really purple. This happens more often than not. There are very few true blue flowers. I once bought a rose called Blue Girl, and the pic did look blue..sure enough, it was purple..
HD sells the 'blue' Rose of Sharon, at least that's where I got mine. Toni
Thanks for all the comments. By searching the hibiscus link I've discovered that it's called "Blue Moon" and some growers have reported that it's not one of their easiest plants. In my Florida garden it's had no problems. I don't treat it special, so it's either luck or a good combination of sun & moisture.

This particular item was out of stock and it was replaced with 32 GB MicroSD High Capacity with SD Adapter. Did not receive the Mini SD Adapter, which was fine as the only reason I ordered it over the MicroSD and adapter was it was only $1 more. I keep this plugged into my new laptop all the time instead of transferred everything onto my harddrive. It works flawlessly. My computer is not bogged down with all my documents and photos and is lightning fast. Definitely worth the money and Overstock price was much lower than anywhere else.
Many of your personal electronics may use memory cards to store digital photos, music files and other data. Different memory card formats are designed for different devices, and their shape and capacity can vary widely. This memory card buying guide includes basic information to help you find memory cards that have the storage space you need and are compatible with your devices.
Many of your personal electronics have expandable memory options. One of the most convenient ways to boost the memory of your devices is to use an SD card. SD memory cards and micro SD cards are a form of compact flash memory that can easily be inserted into cell phones, digital cameras and more. Here are some common uses for SD cards for your own electronics.
Be prepared for college with a computer you can rely on for homework and everything else. A scholar's workload -- and student-life in general -- demands a lot from your laptop. These tips will help you identify the features that matter to students, so you can select a laptop that will stand up to the school year's demands.
Laptop computers are perfect for users who need more flexibility and portability over stationary desktop computers. Prices of laptop computers have plunged, and these inexpensive computers can perform any function required by a typical computer user. Cheap laptop and notebook computers for under $1,000 now offer features that could only be found before on much more expensive models. Here are some tips on what to look for in an inexpensive yet high-quality laptop.
Hard drives are a standard feature on all computers. These electronic libraries store the software and files that your computer operates. This hard drive buying guide includes basic concepts and features that will help you to find a compatible hard drive to store important files, photos and music on your computer.
When you browse the large selection of laptops here on Overstock.com, you may see this icon that labels them as "refurbished." A refurbished laptop is either a computer that has been returned to the retailer or manufacturer for a refund by a customer or a computer that has just come off a lease. The computer may have had a slight defect or simply not met a customer's expectations. Before a laptop can be resold, any defective components are repaired or replaced and the computer is then carefully examined to ensure it works properly. Any computer that goes through this process must be identified as refurbished or reconditioned. Refurbished laptops can be a bargain compared to some new models, but it's important to make a few comparisons first to make sure you're getting a good deal.
Digital cameras have made it possible for anyone to produce stunning digital images, no matter what their skill level. This digital camera buying guide will introduce you to the world of digital photography and help you find a camera that will help you take great digital photos.

Historical Traveler Reviews MDM Hotel Warsaw
Very very average
I have stayed at the number of Warsaw hotels, so every time I am there, I try the new one. Stayed there at the end of October, booked it through otel, got an excellent price (compared to what the hotel offered itself), couldn't believe. The room was extremely spacious, wasn't surprised when there was terrible traffic noise all night long - well, but the hotel is situated at the main traffic junction.
Unfortunately, the room service forgot to clean and tidy the room before I came, so I found the used shampoo plastic bottles scattered around in the bathroom, and I had a strange feeling that the bed linen was not changed either. When I complained about it at the reception, the girl just simply said "Sorry..."
By the way, if you fancy TV, there are plenty of channels to choose.
So top hotels don't come cheap, and this one is very very average.
Great Hotel
I booked this hotel on line and managed to get a very good rate inclusive of breakfast. The hotel quoted a much higher rate. The hotel was clean and the room large, there was a fridge so you could buy drinks from the supermarket and keep them chilled. The breakfast was amazing and so much choice.The hotel was very central and there were many restaurants nearby. Our room was slightly noisy at night when the trams were running.The pub next door is amazing value for money but beware of the portions they are HUGE.We booked a trip to Krakow for the day, not through the hotel as they were charging much more but through the company itself.It was expensive but well worth it. We were driven around in a limo with a driver and our own guide. We went to Auschtwitz which took up most of the day but well worth a visit.
We also went on the Warsaw trip which was again worth taking as you get to see lots of sights which would be difficult to do on your own. The cafes in the square at the Old Town rip you off for drinksand food, the ones just outside the square are much cheaper and the same for restaurants so just shop around. Warsaw was a brilliant place to visit.The weather helped 17 to 18 degrees and sunny.
Great Hotel
The room was excellent. Very spacious - even with a sofa to watch TV. There was a small refrigerator so we could cool drinks we bought at supermarkets. The breakfast was extraordinary with a great choice and magnificent view across Constitution Square. The only downside was that the rate we were quoted on the website (in Euros) was all inclusive. The bill we received (in zlotys) included tax as separate and when I later did the reconciliation it seems that the tax charged was in addition to the 85 euro rate we were quoted. It would be an idea either to book in zlotys so any such discrepancy is obvious or do the conversion before you pay the bill. Apart from that we were exceptionally happy with the hotel.
The only other piece of advice is that the hotel notes that it is very close to the Polytechnika Metro station. It is - but the Metro station at Central is not actually at the Central railway station but about 300m from it. We spent about 20 minutes trying to locate it before giving up and walking to the hotel. About 15-20 minutes away and easy to find.
Wonderful breakfast and comfortable beds
We stayed in May. We had a room at the front of the hotel. Unfortunately, they were doing painting works and there was a netting all over the front of the building but you could see through it. We had a wonderfully large room, the bathroom was clean and water plentiful. The decor of the room was excellent and we also had a small fridge. The breakfast was wonderful, lots of choice even for the fussiest of eaters. I can't remember how much we paid but it wasn't that expensive. I'd certainly stay there again.
More than Pleased
We stayed at the MDM Warsaw from 05/02/06 to 10/02/06 and quite honestly after staying in many hotels throughout Europe in the past 18 months this one was the best value,best room,best position and best service.Our arrival was friendly and efficiently swift.The room couldn't be faulted. The beds were comfortable,the bathroom was large with heated towel rails and constant hot water for an over sized shower.The central heating ( 3 radiators under 3 windows that also opened) we could control ourselves. The room was split into 2 areas by a spacious entry hall.One part was the sleeping area the other a small 'lounge'.The beds were comfortable and we were supplied immediately with the requested additional pillows.Room lighting (often a source of irritation) was augmented by 3 reading lights and even the large TV supplied more channels than we had ever received in a hotel before.So you get the point....we were more than happy!Finally to breakfast.....sumptious...from bacon sausage and eggs to hams,salamis,beef,cheese and onwards to fruit,cheesecake,fruit juices etc etc etc.....fabulous!!
What a wonderful place to stay and all achieved calmly without fuss.Thank you all at the MDM.
PS Photos will be added later
Good if you're an insomniac.
Everything about this hotel is impressive. As soon as I arrived, a porter took my cases from me as I checked in. Especially nice as I'd somehow managed to get lost finding Marshall Street, and ended up walking far further than was necessary.
The hotel is clean, rooms are quite large (even the single room I stayed in). Facilities and room service were superb. And the hotel's central location makes this very easy to get to - especially for anyone arriving at the main train station.
Brilliant, you'd think. You would be wrong. Unfortunately it's best feature, the location, is also it's biggest downfall. The traffic noises provided by the very busy Marshall Street carry on way into the small hours. The relentless droning of old-ish cars, beeping of horns and passing-by of trams was reminiscent of London in the rush hour. Unfortunately, the hotel had provided no warning of this - neither did they take the trouble of at least double-glazing the windows, or at least adding some form of soundproofing. Despite the hotel being virtually empty, I was denied a room change.
I would recommend this hotel if you don't have trouble getting to sleep. If like me, you need a decent amount of silence, it would be advisable to look elsewhere.
Good value, perfect location
Booked this hotel for approx. 40 EUR/night (single room) during a weekend. This was excellent value for money ! The hotel is in the very centre of town. Rooms are quite big and very comfortable. Breakfast is average but acceptable.
MDM - Masterly decorated mainfront
Very prominently situated on Constitution Square and the southern end of Marszalska, the hotel's architecture represents a time, when Warsaw was looking to the east rather then to Brussels or Washington. Apart from today's ads for cellular phones, cameras etc., the square has kept its unique neo-classicistic style.
The MDM is well known for conventions and events (like christmas or new year's parties) and the Warsaw Palace of Culture and Science is only one metro station away. So is Metro Jazz Club belonging to Syrena Hotel Chain as well.
Expect a heatlhy breakfast and a comfortable room. You will meet guests from Poland and abroad in the hiotel and its wellknown restaurant "Schweijk".
If in need of a taxi, make a move by yourself. The doorman said this would be a 2 hours job for him at new year's eve, while we managed it in less than 3 minutes.
Excellent Hotel, Excellent Experience
I travel frequently to Poland on business. I've stayed in several hotels in Warsaw, but the first time I stayed in MDM I knew that was the hotel for me. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. The location is perfect, close to everything, the staff is very friendly and helpful, the breakfast buffet is very tasty with a lot of choices. I would recommend this hotel to everyone - whether you are travelling on business or for pleasure. You will not be disappointed!
What a pleasure to say at the MDM!
My husband and I stayed at the MDM in December of 2002. I was pretty familiar with this hotel, since I lived in an adjacent building when I was little. My husband has never been to Poland and doesn't speak a word of Polish, but the staff was extremely helpful, considerate, and efficient. The service was wonderful, the hotel room was very clean and very comfortable. Much larger than what we are used to from American hotels. The bathroom was sparkling clean. The front desk staff was beyond friendly. And let me just say that my husband and I still talk about the breakfast buffet at the MDM - it was fantastic. The perfect way to start your day on a cold December morning. We have nothing but compliments for this wonderful hotel. It absolutely exceeded my expectations (I chose it because I of the convenient location) with the wonderful service and cleanliness. We already know that anytime we visit Poland we will only stay at the MDM.

This is our free day in Warsaw until a meeting with our tour group followed by a dinner at the hotel. We started the day with a great breakfast in the hotel (included).

We started the day with a visit to Wilanow Palace. It was a beautiful sunny morning and we wondered around the beautiful gardens before going inside. Miraculously some of the original art and furniture survived WWII. There is an amazing sundial,on the outside of the building.

Presqu'île de Gien
Presqu'île de Gien is not really an off the beaten path destination but as it is outside of the town, though administratively a part of Hyères, I have chosen to put here a link with the special page Presqu'île de Gien
Île de Porquerolles
Île de Porquerolles is not really an off the beaten path destination but as it is outside of the town (though administratively a part of Hyères), I have chosen to put here a brief presentation of Porquerolles. I will build a separate page on this island (to come).
Porquerolles is the largest and the western most of the group of the Îles d'Hyères. It is 7.5 km long and 3 km wide, with an area of 1254ha. Its summit is at the lighthouse, elevation 142 m.
The village of Porquerolles lays at the bottom of a small bay. It was created in 1820 and has now a population of 400 permanent inhabitants. In summer, there are many visitors for day trips but few spend the night on the island where camping is forbidden and that has very few housing capabilities.
Since 1979, he Parc National de Port-Cros is in charge of the Conservatoire Botanique National Méditerranéen de Porquerolles as the island has a very special Mediterranean vegetation.

It is a situation in which new immigrants often find themselves: Signing a document in Hebrew that they can
barely read or fully understand and years later finding themselves in an
impossible legal or financial bind.That, however, could all change soon,
if legislation requiring all government and public bodies to translate their
official websites into the myriad of languages spoken by the country's citizens
is approved before the Knesset breaks up for its summer recess.The bill,
which is being proposed by Kadima MK Ruhama Avraham-Balila and is supported by
at least 22 lawmakers from across the political spectrum, is only one part of a
new campaign by a coalition of social empowerment groups to make sure that
language accessibility for every citizen is put firmly onto the country's
agenda."Israel is a pluralistic society and as such it must pay special
attention to the needs of all its various citizens," said Avraham- Balila, who
hopes the legislation will receive preliminary approval as early as next week.
"This includes enabling all individuals, even veteran immigrants, the chance to
properly understand their rights and duties as citizens in their native
language."US-born veteran immigrant John Daly, co-chairman of the
English Speakers Association of Ashkelon, recalls that when he first moved here
he was astounded at the number of documents he was asked to sign in Hebrew,
without being able to understand a word of what he was signing."Everyone
just told me, 'It's fine, just sign it,' and I did," he said on Thursday.
"However, so many people end up getting letters from lawyers because they have
signed something they did not understand and it leads them to some sort of
trouble."Daly, who ended up deep in debt via a misunderstanding with one
of the Internet service providers, dedicated his master's degree thesis in
public policy and administration to the problem of language accessibility for
immigrants in Israel."I found out that even though all government
buildings are legally required to be accessible to the disabled, they are not
required to be accessible to those who do not speak Hebrew," he said. "In a
country where roughly half the citizens are not fluent in Hebrew, it seems
absurd that you can go into a government building with a wheelchair but once you
are inside you cannot understand what is going on." Based on Daly's research, in which he found the problem of inaccessibility to
information to be widespread among new and veteran immigrants, local Ashkelon
rights group Power to Influence – Residents Make Change; Sikkuy, the Association
for the Advancement of Civic Equality; and Yedid – The Association for Community
Empowerment took up the cause.In addition to working to encourage
government and public bodies to translate their important documents, contracts
and bills at least into the country's other official language, Arabic, and
several other widely spoken languages, the NGOs carried out a survey of
linguistic accessibility for government websites.The results showed that
numerous central government offices and services either failed to provide their
information in any language other than Hebrew or, if they did, failed to update
the translated information on a regular basis. Moreover, when contacted and
urged to provide other language options, several government offices and official
bodies responded that Hebrew is the only official language of the country and
translations should not be required."For Israelis it's not a big issue;
they are given a document or a contract, they read it and understand it, but
when I went around to immigrant organizations and asked them if they knew of
people who had signed papers and faced problems afterward, they all laughed and
said it happens all the time," Daly said."What needs to be understood is
that even for a person who has been here many years but whose mother tongue is
something other than Hebrew, reading and writing in Hebrew is usually still a
problem," pointed out Ran Melamed, deputy director of social policy and
communication for Yedid, who was involved in drafting Avraham-Balila's private
member's bill.Explaining why the initial legislation is to focus
exclusively on the language accessibility of official websites, Melamed said
that with the bulk of important information available today on websites, it is
essential that all citizens – even those who do not read Hebrew – can access
information about their basic rights.In the introduction to the bill,
this point is highlighted: "A large portion of country's population is able to
understand Hebrew at a basic level, sometimes even speak the language
satisfactorily, but when it comes to reading official letters, manuals relating
to their rights or even contracts rules and regulations the difficulty is great,
and it often leads to mistakes that, in some cases, can be
disastrous."Melamed, who believes that the bill will be approved because
there is no great spending requirement, said it will require the websites of all
government ministries, government companies, local authorities, economic and
consumer organizations and other official bodies to appear in the country's
official languages, Hebrew and Arabic, as well as languages where there are
large numbers of speakers. The bill includes a list of languages widely spoken
in Israel such as English, Russian, Amharic, Yiddish, Romanian and even Arabic
dialects spoken by Jews from North Africa and Iraq.Daly said additional
legislation will be proposed at a later date requiring all contracts dealing
with financial obligations to be in a language that people can understand before
they sign."Our goal is to raise awareness that there is a serious
problem out there that affects many people," he said.

One piece of business communication that hasn't changed in a thousand years is the résumé. It's the first contact you have with a prospective employer and your chance to sell yourself in 20 seconds. With such pressure, most people make huge mistakes with their résumé.
Seasoned professionals struggle with issues such as the chronological vs. the functional, editing to keep a long career under two pages and how to truthfully show one's life without broadcasting they are older, heavily experienced and most probably highly paid.
According to Wikipedia, a job board is a website recommended for job hunting, the choices presented varying from very general tasks to precise niches. In the past few years, this kind of activities practically exploded; this trend was on constant rise, before the economic crisis, things changing quite fast afterwards. Recent statistics have shown that each year the sums transacted in outsourcing are growing more and more.
When trying to demonstrate the importance of the job boards in the global economy, there is some serious evidence that we can present, meaning a very relevant number: at the moment of writing this article, freelancer.com stated that $87,732,495 USD were transacted since February 2004. This amount of money is enough to buy more than 30 of the most expensive cars in the world, or 2 of the most expensive yachts or maybe to produce the "Avatar" movie again, so we are speaking about a lot of money.
As anyone who's tried it can tell you, expanding your business worldwide is no easy feat. It's time consuming and it involves a lot of research and implementation – but the reward more than makes up for it. Having a larger client base is what every business needs in order to survive and flourish.
When considering going global in order to attract new customers, the Asian market is always promising. Getting a foothold in countries such as China, India and Japan means access to billions of potential new clients. In fact, 40% of the world's internet users are in Asia, and believe it or not, China has 30% more internet users than the US.
In any business, there is always a need to look for new clients. Hypothetically, the existing clients should continue to avail services (without much of convincing), but this does not happen. For any freelancer, work always comes in phases. Either you get overloaded with work that you have to turn down new clients or your worksheet becomes completely empty.
The trick is to regularize the work in such a way that that projects are lined up for months.
This is a list of the best practices that will guarantee you the kind of involvement you intend. Did you always wanted to do enough work so that you can take your family to Disney Land and not fear of the next season?
With this tutorial I will show you how to create a cute bunny with Illustrator. The character is perfect to start the year because the 2011 is the Year of the Rabbit in the Chinese calendar. If you are not bunny lover don't worry! The same technique could be useful to reproduce any other character or vector element you may want to do.
This tutorial is of intermediate level. Technique used is not really difficult but the complete process is long. That's why it will require about 4-5 hours to be accomplished.
We will divide the tutorial in two parts: one about the bunny characters the other about the 2011 writing.
Let's start.
User experience (UX) is about how a person feels about using a product, system or service. User experience is subjective in nature, because it is about an individual's feelings and thoughts about the system. User experience is dynamic, because it changes over time as the circumstances change.
The IT industry has never been in better shape. New products are now launched in a highly competitive environment and the user interaction with new apps or websites has become essential to their success. Furthermore, the penetration of technology in everyday life is now so strong that our relation to technology is getting increasingly sophisticated, rapidly changing the users' expectations. New products are thus less like a monolith sculpture made out of a single rock and more like a changing, dynamic layout of small stones put together.
