Commit to Yourself, Not a Gym
Are you afraid of commitment? If you're avoiding joining a gym because you cringe at the thought of having yet another monthly bill , do yourself one favor: commit to yourself. All you need is a closet-sized space and a few easy-to-tote tools and all the world's your gym…if you know how to use it.

Apologies if posted in wrong section, first time poster.
As per the title, a DVD rip of "The Corrs Unplugged" which has a dolby digital 5.0 audio track is displayed as containing a 4.1 audio track. I'm assuming 5.0 is pretty rare as DVDs go, hence perhaps why this hasn't come up before?
Many thanks to the developers and all who contribute to xbmc.

I don't have any sort of surround channel level meter/visualiser, but MediaInfo for Mac OS seems to confirm the correct 5.0 channels within the .mkv file. The file seems to sound as you would expect so I think it's mainly a cosmetic issue.
As a software engineering graduate (without seeing the source code), it's almost as if the display algorithm is: display (numChannels -1)".1" if that makes sense |

As far as the files in the Confluence skin, it does seem to assume that 5 channels equals the "4.1" image flag. There's no image for "5.0".

Any specific questions let me know
Head Purus Labs Rep
I know some organizations have banned geranium. Check the list for this year of banned substances. If it's tested for then ya it very well could cause you to fail.
Do you know if it is banned?
On another board a user mentioned that the amount of Vitamin C is counter-productive as it has a pro-oxident effect.
Head Purus Labs Rep
This stuff is legit. Been taking Jack3d and White Flood for awhile but effects have plateaued a bit. Took 1 scoop MM tonight and WHAM! Good stuff for sure.
I like this stuff. Big dose of creatine and BCAA's I enjoy. As well as the 1,3 but when are you guys going to make it taste better? My friends dont even buy it anymore for that reason. I chug it down because I like it.
Head Purus Labs Rep
get your guys to start puttin glyco-carn in it!
Some people report loss of libido from Jack3d, anyone see this from MM? Really like MM, the energy lasts a long time. Careful if you take it to lift at 8pm. I actually like the grape flavor; tastes better than any of the jack3d flavors or NOxplode flavors IMO.
Really depends on how you react to 1,3. Some people have slight libido problems (more erection problems known as stim ****) and some don't. It clears up after stopping use though. I haven't heard any reports other than one or two people that were using it everyday and had some problems. Nothing big though and I have given out a lot of it with no complaints.
nothing some arginine AKG wont fix. I had it my first 2 weeks on a 1,3 product and body got used to it.
been a big fan of USP Labs Jack3d but switched off for a little while because tolerance was too much and was having to use too much in order to get that flow...ran NO-Explode for a month and decided to run Muscle Marinade, wow! It was a great lift today. It was only day 1 and I felt outstanding. No jitters and just a great pump throughout. Very impressed by the product. Can't wait to see how the next few lifts go. Excited to say the least. Like the heavy dose of creatine, i usually run creatine monohydrate 5g solo during the day, but with the heavy dose in MM, i obviously don't need to anymore. it will just be straight dangerous lol. Love this stuff. If you don't have it...get it ASAP! great price too and 27 servings is a bonus.
I'm a big fan of MM and don't see myself changing my pre-workout.

I am a single gentleman, non-smoker, never married with no
children, who has a lot of love to give. I am an outgoing person
who loves life and meeting new people. I am a lover not a fighter.
Romance is very important to me and so are candlelight dinners and
a warm fire. Laying on the beach watching the sun set or rise is a
beautiful thing. I work full-time here in GB. I try to live each
day to the fullest and not take anything for granted because there
are no guarantees in life. I do enjoy outdoor activities, my
favorites are golfing, camping, fishing, hunting, sports and walks
along the beach. Also enjoy shooting pool and throwing darts. I am
all about self-improvement. I believe you can change anything you
put your mind to. I am a very perceptive individual and sensitive
to others needs. I always try to put myself into someone else's
shoes, and not judge that person. I don't always agree, and I will
give my opinion if asked. I would love to watch a sunset and share
dreams with someone special one day. Are you out there somewhere,
I'm waiting!!

A cat wakes up surrounded by water and must learn to survive.
My Blog: http://gzilbalodis.tumblr .com/
This has been my passion project for the last year an a half. It started as vague ideas of a cat, ocean and overcoming fear. Then through numerous battles with the script it shaped up to something similar you can see now. After seven drafts I felt that it was ready to start storyboarding, but the film kept evolving all the way until the sound mix was done. I kept learning about filmmaking everyday, going through all of the different processes.
I chose the cat as the main character mainly to save time with exposition, because people know that generally cats are afraid of water. So I could just jump right into action. Plus cat is a fairly small creature and the ocean seems even bigger to him. And of course cats are much easier to draw than humans.
The music is by my friend Bertrams Pauls Purviskis who helped a great deal to tell the story the way it was intended. Music had a lot of to convey in very little time and it came out much better than I could have ever expected.
I have been delaying the release for quite some time, because as I learned by making it, a lot of mistakes made earlier when I did not have the experience had to be remade from scratch. I am glad it is finally done and I can show it to the world.

Webb and other residents contacted Hendryx and together they designed a door-to-door survey to try to investigate concerns of increased cancer rates in the area.
Students from area colleges volunteered to perform the interviews during their spring breaks. Interviews were also conducted in Pocahontas County, to provide a control group in an area with no mountaintop removal for comparison to the Boone and Raleigh results.
The study tried to account for some other potential influences on cancer, such as family history, gender, age, smoking and occupational exposures. But it did not account for obesity, and researchers said they were limited by trying to reduce the time necessary to do the interviews and complete the survey.
"There were concerns express by community partners that if the time spent per survey was prolonged, such that fewer surveys could be completed per day and more time had to be spent in Coal River to collect and adequate sample size, word about the survey taking place would reach the coal industry, and community residents would be instructed or pressured by industry representative not take part," the study said.
The study also did not attempt to count cancer deaths, meaning that some fatal cancers previously found at high rates in the area, such as lung cancer, were not represented in the results.
Residents interviewed in the Boone-Raleigh area reported an overall cancer rate of 14 percent, compared to a rate of 9 percent in Pocahontas County. After the results were adjusted for age, gender, smoking, occupational exposure, or family cancer history, the odds of having cancer were twice as high in the Coal River Valley area, the study said.
The National Cancer Institute reports a nationwide cancer rate of about 4 percent, while a West Virginia state report listed a statewide rate of 10 percent.
Hendryx wrote that if the rates found in the Coal River study were translated across the Appalachian region, it would result in an additional 60,000 people with cancer in communities where mountaintop removal is performed.
"Although these projections are uncertain, they illustrate the large numbers of people who are potentially impacted by mountaintop mining environments," the study said.

Damon Wayans became the first famous offender of the Laugh Factory's ban on the use of the n-word, and was fined and banned from the club for three months as a result, Wayans' publicist tells TMZ.
After the Michael Richards incident on November 17, the club decided to ban use of the word and fine comedians $20 for every offense. Wayans took the stage Sunday during a showcase of African-American comedians called "Chocolate Sundaes." Wayans opened his routine with the line, "Give yourselves a big round of applause for coming down and supporting 'N***** Night.'" According to the L.A. Times, Wayans used the word 15 more times during his 20-minute appearance.
That's a $320 contribution to the Laugh Factory's swear jar. Wayans' rep had no further comment other than to confirm the fine and the temporary ban.
Andy Dick drew fire earlier this week for using the n-word during an appearance at the Improv.
I bet no one is going to make him apologize for saying it, how freaking retarded banning the word n*gger, next thing you know TMZ does the same sh*t!!!
The N word???You do mean Nagging Nancys!! Thats the only N word I know of! Nothing mr Dick Mr Richards or Mr. Damons has said should nor can be Banned! There is this small problem of freespeach and the words have been published!
First off, who makes them throw a $20 in the jar? What if they refuse? Are they going to call the cops? That is the dumbest thing I ever heard! Second, if you start to censor the comedians in the clubs, you might as well shut the doors. If you stop that word, then stop them from using all the other words as well. Jews, whities, homeboys, etc, etc, etc.
Get over it people!
I don't think any word that has the possibilty to offend people should be banned... The Michael Richards incident had to do with him insulting an audience member using racial slurs, that isn't the same thing as using offending language in a comedic sense or as a work of drama for movies etc. Some people get offended by profanity, as well as multiple other things may offend one person but does another.
This has gone way past the point of being ridiculous. Banning the word only gives it more power.
People need to get over it and get on with their lives.

Why is it that black people can say it and don;t have to apologize all over the US but if a white person says it......its a freaking shot heard round the world? I am not a racist person but if one person can say it then everyone can. black or white
Come on people this is getting so stupid, people need to relax and take a breath, but I do agree that if white people cant say it no one else should either since its so offensive to people!
The point of the Michael Richards thing was that he used the n word well then no one else should say it cause according to alot of people its not right! RIGHT???
That word has always been offensive. It is associated with the the horrors of lynching. It is about time something was done about this.
This is way out of control, now they want to ban the word n*gger? What ever happened to free speech. Although I did not like what Ricards had to say--it is his right to say it. And they get to make money off charging the comedians a fine, how exploitive is that? Who gets the money? What the f***? Where were all these rules and fines the next day when Michael Richards was allowed to perform AGAIN. He started all this sh*t-yet he wasnt banned or charged any fines? If they are going to profit from the use of the word n*gger, and ban free speech at least they can give the money to some real n*ggas who need it.
This is not the "America" I was raised in!
This site and all media venues should be ashamed for blowing this "WAY OUT" of preportion, I am not going to blow hot air up your ass over this, but I will say "LET IT GO" the healing of some human beings needs to start and if this
"N-WORD" is so offensive let the race it hurts take the first step by "NOT USING IT" in there lyrics/movies/stand up.
It seems to me as an American born and raised in LA California were bigotry is leeching from the mouths of "FAMOUS" people that we "The Consumer's" of there goods and services can hit them were it hurts them most "THERE FAT BANK ACCOUNTS" do not buy there records, do not see there movies, and do not support them in any way. Maybe after all there money and fame dries up they will be human again like the rest of us?
Okay the word is offensive as it is...But why is that one word "BANNED" and it's okay to use other insulting words in regards to hispanics, asians and every other race? I get the double standard that blacks can call each other the "N" word but it's sacrilegious if a white person says it. It is what it is and it's a double standard. Just like the "F" word the "N" word can mean so many different variations and YES when used as an INSULT it can be hurtful; just like "F U ,U FATASS".
But really who the hell is gonna enforce comedians to add to the kitty swear jar? How efing stupid is that? What if they refuse? Is the SWEAR POLICE gonna come and take em away?
Just because this a**hole racist MR misused the word to the fullest extent why is it that everyone else has to blow this so efing out of proportion? Whether he has anger issues or not he's been exposed for the a**hole he is and he will always be marked as the man that VICIOUSLY ATTACKED PEOPLE RACIALLY in the audience.
It won't be the first or the last time a person of another color or race insulted another person of color or race. Build a bridge get efing over it and move on.
No No No! The Laugh Factory is way out of bounds here. This was an all colored folks night out. When ever you get a bunch of them together in one place they like to call each other N*gga. N*gga this, N*gga that, N*gga how yo momma? N*gga when yu get outa jail? It is the way they talk to one and other, so on a night lake chocolate sundaes night the N word is perfectly acceptable

Something that Apple absolutely does not get enough credit for is their longstanding -- and outstanding -- support for accessibility features, and iOS 6 is no exception. To the already impressive list of accessibility features, Apple is adding Guided Access, a way to lock the iPad into a single app, to help people with autism or similar challenges work independently, without having to worry about accidentally closing an app. It also provides single-app mode functionality for everyone, which makes the iPad far more useful for everything from school tests to mall kiosks.
Here's how Apple describes accessibility and Guided Access in iOS 6:
iOS 6 comes with even more features to make it easier for people with vision, hearing, learning, and mobility disabilities to get the most from their iOS devices. Guided Access helps students with disabilities such as autism remain on task and focused on content. It allows a parent, teacher, or administrator to limit an iOS device to one app by disabling the Home button, as well as restrict touch input on certain areas of the screen. VoiceOver, the revolutionary screen reader for blind and low-vision users, is now integrated with Maps, AssistiveTouch, and Zoom. And Apple is working with top manufacturers to introduce Made for iPhone hearing aids that will deliver a power-efficient, high-quality digital audio experience.
And here's what they've shown off of it so far:
Taken by itself, Guided Access is another in a long line of excellent accessibilities features for iOS, in this case the iPad in particular. Combined with single-app, or kiosk-mode, it becomes a powerful tool for any school, business, or institution. It lets them provide highly specific applications, in highly controlled environments, keeping things simple yet still powerful for users and customers.
It's not protected access mode or guest mode, but it's important and it's there.
iOS 6 is scheduled for release this fall, perhaps as soon as September 19. For more on iOS 6, check out:
Can you provide a little more detail on single-app mode? This post is still a little vague about the specifics, and for those who haven't actually used iOS 6 the following questions are left unanswered:
-With the home button disabled, how do you exit from single app mode?
-Can you specify single-app mode settings based on specific apps, or is it applied generally when activated?
I'm thinking of trying to put some iPads in a children's museum, running an app I've been working on. This Guided Access mode sounds good, but I'm wondering, will it also restart the app in the (hopefully rare) event that the app crashes? I suspect not, but it sure would be handy. Although my app is doing fairly well in testing now, leaving it running for hours/days at a time, with kids working their magic on it is quite an endurance test for an app!

Corum Admiral's Cup Black Split-Seconds 44 Limited Edition Watch
Filed under: Timepieces / Watches
Corum has made another Split Second chronograph in their Admiral's cup line, which they name quite simply, the Corum Admiral's Cup Black Split-Seconds 44 watch. There are two versions of the 44mm wide steel cased watch. I like the use of contrasting black tones on the case based on the dial color. The white dialed version has a black mid case and lugs with a polished steel bezel, while the black dialed version has black PVD bezel and polished steel lugs and case sides. See how that works? Dial is pretty standard for modern Admiral's Cup watches. Nice, with mostly muted colors. It comes on a rubber strap, and inside the watch is a Corum Calibre CO986 (base ETA) automatic split-second chronograph movement - that has further been COSC Chronometer certified. The white dialed version is limited to 155 pieces and the black dialed version is limited to only 55 pieces.

Google Reader gets small but smart organizational tweaks
Google just released a handful of small updates for its RSS Reader product that continue to improve some of its organizational capabilities. Included in this update is a more pervasive tagging system, international sharing, a timestamp for the last time a feed was crawled, and an alphabetic sorting system for folders and subscriptions.
The two changes I want to highlight are the new tagging system and feed subscription sorter.
Tags in Reader have been present for feeds and individual stories, but they can now be found when sharing or noting a story in reader too. Below the text field that … Read more

Pre-trial hearings begin today in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba for five men accused of plotting the September 11th terrorist attacks. Our Bobby Cuza has the latest from Guantanamo Bay.
GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA -- Pre-trial hearings begin today in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba for several people accused of plotting the September 11th terrorist attacks.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four others will appear in a military court at the US Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay. There will be four days of pre-trial hearings. Among the issues to be discussed: so called CIA Black sites, secret overseas prisons where the men were held for years. Another issue is whether the government can monitor correspondence between the defendants and their attorneys. The five men were arraigned back in May of last year in Guantanamo.
With the case bogged down with procedural motions, the trial itself may not get underway until next year, or possibly even later.

text: When Ford redesigned the Mustang for 1969, it also redesigned the doors and windows. With each Mustang redesign has come fewer and fewer parts to both simplify vehicle assembly and improve cost per unit. Weatherstripping is no exception. There was less of it for '69-'70 along with improved sealing. Instead of parting the door and roof rail weatherstripping at the door's leading edge on top, Ford moved this annoying gap lower toward the door bottom to shut out wind noise and moisture. We're going to take you to Mustangs Etc's new shop in Southern California's San Fernando Valley to show you how professionals perform weatherstrip replacement and how you can achieve the same outstanding results.

Dave, New Zealand (08 August 2012) We stayed at the Flying Pancake for 3 nights and it was fantastic. Claudia the host is very friendly and told us all we needed to know. We stayed in the Cook Suite which is equipment with everything you might need. This includes, CDs, stereo, iPod player, TV, steam room / shower, fancy lighting controlled from a remote control, tea and coffee facilities. Breakfast was great, delivered in a basket each morning.
Lin, Edinburgh UK (16 July 2012) Stylish, friendly, relaxed, family-run slice of heaven.
Kate from Hong Kong (20 June 2012) Wether I am here for two days or longer, I always experience the same high standards. The Flying Pancake makes me feel at home!
Gina, Rome, Italy (28 April 2012) A long-overdue review for a b&b that really made our stay in Amsterdam special. Claudia was always available and helpful with directions, laundry and even lent her coat to this then-pregnant guest when the weather got cold. The location was very convenient to everything and the rooms-we stayed in both-are each unique, clean and very comfortable. The beds and linens are all high quality and the breakfast and Illy coffee very nice. The wide selection of music and DVDs is wonderful for staying in after a long day of sightseeing! A great place that I would gladly go back to and I recommend it to all my friends. Thank you, Claudia!

Kian (26 April 2011) Amenities and features were really great. It's a worthwhile vacation.

Wim Soens (17 March 2011) Ive seen a lot of B&Bs, but I will remember the Flying Pancake for a long time. What a lovely place this is! Very comfortable and charming, and I especially enjoyed the steam shower. Claudia is a great host and made me feel at home right away. Ill definitely recommend this place to my friends.
Fransiska, Florence (14 March 2011) The best B&B I've ever stayed in. Room was lovely, very clean with a wonderful bathroom with a steam shower. Breakfast was at your door every morning with fresh breads, cheeses and meats. Claudia was a great landlady and provide us bikes and precious hints/suggestions. Would definitely stay here again.
Tony, London (07 March 2011) The Flying Pancake offers two separate apartments on the top floors of a typical Dutch house. Each one consists of cooking area, bedroom, living area and bathroom. The level and quality of amenities is very high - the overall feeling is of informal, comfort. I've stayed here several times, and look forward to doing so again later in the year.
Don, California (02 February 2011) Quiet, quaint, great location, good food for breakfast! So much more personal than a hotel. Very clean and all ammenities provided!
Martin & Denise, Malta (08 July 2010) We stayed in The Captain's Suite at the end of June and were very pleased we had chosen The Flying Pancake. The house is in a pleasant and quiet neighbourhood (far enough away from the city centre to be relaxing but close enough to be convenient for all the sights).
The suite was lovely and exceeded our expectations and Claudia is a friendly and welcoming host.
We were fortunate to enjoy beautiful weather during our stay so each day we walked into the city (a leisurely 20 minute or so walk) although there was a tram stop close by should we have needed to use it.
We enjoyed staying here very much and would have no hesitation in recommending it to others. We hope to return one day. -
John Bullen (25 May 2010) Last week was my second stay at The Flying Pancake while visiting Amsterdam. The Captain's Cabin was spacious, comfortable, charming, and the steam shower will be sorely missed until my next visit. Claudia ensured that all my questions were answered, and she is truly a gracious and accomodating host. The Pancake is located in an historic old Jewish quarter and while not directly in the "party" area of the city, it is within just a few steps of the trams which will get you anywhere you wish to go in the city. The #9 tram comes along every 10 minutes or so and will get you to Rembrandt Square - one of the several "entertainment areas" - within just a few minutes ride. If you prefer your own transportation, Claudia has bikes to rent at very reasonable rates, and there is an electric scooter sales and rental business just a few doors down the street which rents at 5 Euro a day less than anywhere else I saw.
The Flying Pancake is definitely on my recommended B&B list for anyone wishing a wonderful experience while in beautiful Amsterdam. -
Michael & Deborah Orr (13 March 2010) The Cook's Suite - March 2010. Top marks = 10/10. A truly special guesthouse experience with great attention to detail. A warm and welcoming 'innkeeper.'
The location is not absolutely central, but this means you get to see far more of the district between the guesthouse and the city centre and = peace and quiet when you wish for it! Would choose this over a hotel every time. Just be prepared for the typically steep and narrow Dutch staircases!
Thanks Claudia for a wonderful few days...Best wishes, Michael and Debbie -
Susan, UK (14 February 2010) I have had a lovely time staying here. It met (and exceeded) my expectations. Thank you for everything!
MSC-International, Rotterdam (13 October 2009) Top quality facility - high level hospitality - significant services - good price. Definitely I will be back; both for business as well as private activities.
Best regards, Nico de Bruin, Managing Director, Multi Solutions Company B.V. -
Gardengirl381, Denver USA (01 October 2009) We spent a couple of nights in Amsterdam after cycling 2 weeks in the Holland countryside. Needless to say, the hub-bub of the city different! The quiet location of The Flying Pancake and the delightful restaurant recommendations from Claudia made it a wonderful stay. Being so close to the tram stop let us get quickly into the center of the city and come "home" to our quick and beautiful neighborhood. She suggested a local street market and it was one of the highlights of our visit. We would definitely stay there again!
Traveldude California (19 September 2009) I stayed at The Flying Pancake in Amsterdam with two friends and could not have been more pleased with my experience. First off, the location is perfect because it's a short walk or bike ride to any main attraction in Amsterdam. Even better, you can rent bikes from the owners for about 7.50 Euro per day. I highly reccomend doing this especially if you plan on doing a lot of site seeing. Next, the suite we stayed in, which I believe is called "Cook's Suite" was very cozy and inviting. The room had a great bathroom and shower which also contained a steam room. The living room has a couch, lounge chair, dinner table, and television. As for the service, Claudia, the owner, went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we were enjoying our stay. I really have nothing negative to say about this place and would reccomend it to anyone.
Travelguru420 (15 September 2009) From the moment my friends and I arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. Claudia is not just a great hostess, she provides the highest quality of service that anyone could ask for. From the homemade breakfast every morning to the superb cleanliness of the room, every bit of our stay was beyond expectation. I would recommend The Flying Pancake to my friends and family because it took my stay and experience in Amsterdam from good to amazing!!!
USCworld, California (09 September 2009) Authentic experience! This place has it all! You can't go wrong with Dutch hospitality.
The owner, Claudia, treated me like I was apart of her own family. As if I were one of her sons. I got sick while in Brussels, and upon arriving in Amsterdam, I was already feeling the effects. However, Cluadia, made sure I was getting the proper care and treatment while I was under her watch. I can't thank her enough for making my stay managable while I was under the weather. With any other circumstances, I would have been lost, sick, unfortable and down right miserable. Thank You Claudia!
To finish up, the accomadations where impeccable! We stayed in the Cooks Suite and If you're a fan of decor, you will love this room! Very open, multi level, jungle theme bathroom; that makes you feel as if you're on a remote island. TV with American channels, books on the culture, as well as current affair magazines for you women out there! To finish things off, the continental breakfast, which is dropped off every morning at your door like clockwork, is delicious!
5 STARS all the way! Bring a spouse, a girlfriend, or come on your honeymoon. You will have no worries at The Flying Pancake! -
Jimdrw, Bay City, MI, USA (26 July 2009) "More of an apartment than a B&B, in a good way!"
I was having a terrible day of travel as I arrived in Amsterdam, but the Flying Pancake made it all better. The neighborhood is quiet and 10 minutes to everything via bike. The iPod dock, DVDs, and coffee maker are great. Being able to open the windows and having no street noise seems like a rarity here. This city really bustles. -
Angelchaos, Brighton, UK (29 June 2009) I arranged a trip to Amsterdam as a surprise for my partner's birthday, and had heard lots of good things about "The Flying Pancake". Luckily the week I wanted was free, and we stayed in the Captain suite. From the moment we arrived Claudia was the perfect host, we felt welcome as though we were friends of the family. The suite itself has been wonderfully decorated, it basically covers the whole floor of the house and has it's own entrance via the street.
The suite consists of one long room, with a lovely big comfy bed at one end, and a breakfast table, sofa and kitchen area at the other. Small details like; the wireless internet and ipod charger made travelling around Amsterdam so much easier as we had an ipod touch with us, and could use google maps, and of course trip advisor.
The bathroom was also beautifully decorated and the steam room was a lovely way to relax after a long days walking. We had such a wonderful time, we will definately be back for another visit in the future.
Many thanks Claudia. -
Jonathan & Rebecca (18 June 2009) We stayed in The Captains Suite towards the end of May. This place is wonderful, everything about it is just so relaxing. We visit Amsterdam annually & normally stay in hotels, but after experiencing the Flying Pancake - would stay nowhere else. So close to the city centre but far enough to be away from it all. The breakfasts are amazing..
Grayson08, North Carolina, USA (18 June 2009) This is one of; if not the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. My wife and I felt like we were on a second honeymoon. We stayed in the cook suite, which is very romantic and cozy. It truly felt like you were a local, climbing up the staircase to your loft studio apartment. It has its own separate entrance which is very handy. Normally we don't care too much for B+B's, but this was just perfect. Claudia (the hostess) was always nearby and easy to reach if we needed anything, and she is extremely nice and helpful. It was great being able to reach outside our door and grab the breakfast basket, and eat at our leisure.
One of my favorite features of the suite was all the windows. If it got stuffy, you could open, or close any combination of the wiondows to create the perfect cross breeze. I especially liked the two little "hidden" windows. The lighting was also easy to control to create the perfect mood.
To summarize, this is a great value for what you get. You truly feel like a local staying here. The neighborhood is pleasant and quiet, and handy to the tram. You will not regret staying here!
Tip: there's a great little shop down the street at the corner of Nieuwe Prinsegracht and Roeterstraat that sells good sandwiches and good beer ,etc. at good prices.
Also, don't try to walk all the way from Centraal station, it's a hike. We only had one "full" backpack each, but it was just a little farther than we cared to walk. When you come out of C.S. go left and grab tram #9 to Plantage Kerklaan instead, easy!
Thanks again Claudia! -
Astralbeats, Singapore (03 May 2009) "If only there's a Flying Pancake in all the cities I go to!"
Best for honeymoon couples! The room is well designed (lots of white, beam woods,fireplace, wall mounted espresso machine, steam room), balancing modern aesthetics and coziness superbly. The host gives heaps of privacy but is always good to help with any questions or bookings. Located away from the touristy bits so it's quieter :) but you can still take 10-15 mins walk to it. Love it to bits, best place i've stayed so far..will go back there again. Wish there's such lodging in all the cities I go to. -
The Naismiths (13 April 2009) We and our friend enjoyed a very enjoyable weekend in Amsterdam and The Flying Pancake made a perfect base - well equipped and accessible. Claudia and her husband made us feel very welcome and I loved the steam room!
Fabienne Gaspard (Belgique) (10 April 2009) Un séjour super agréable sous le soleil d'avril! Que du confort et du bonheur après avoir marché toute la journée le long des canaux. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le thé et café à volonté, le bain-vapeur ainsi que le panier du petit-déjeuner discrètement déposé devant la porte. Et si on le veut, ambiance musicale et soirée DVD assurée! Merci Claudia pour l'accueil.
Madrid_traveller09, Spain (16 March 2009) "5 star"
I cannot think of a better and more comfortable place to stay in Amsterdam; quiet neighourhood pretty close to the center and major attractions. Everything has been perfect (fireplace, flowers, drinks...); the bad thing is that you cannot stay there forever. Thanks Claudia for being such a great hostess -
Sandy USA (23 January 2009) The Flying Pancake's fireplaces attracted me for a cold January visit and Claudia's genuine warm welcome & helpfulness, fresh breakfast baskets didn't disappoint. Unfortunately, I arrived with a traveler's upset stomach, and Claudia offered some very helpful remedies that had me feeling better very quickly.
I took advantage of the excellent location and got last minute seats in the Carre theater, even while sold out!
I found the apartment cozy and bright and loved the decadent spa/steam-room shower and comfortable, restful bedding. There was surprisingly good wine and beer available, other drinks and gourmet Illy espresso / cappuccino maker.
I never felt neglected and always pampered. I enjoyed the privacy and convenient features of an apartment with the luxury of a breakfast basket full of fresh goodies left at the doorstep to enjoy whenever i decide to wake up. Bliss. -
Cinqetoiles, Paris (23 January 2009) A perfect haven of calm, quiet, comfort and style. Claudia was an extremely kind, accommodating hostess. Loved the shower/bathroom and fresh flowers. Our suite was simply perfect for our 3-day stay... a little piece of affordable luxury. Definitely do not miss the Indonesian restaurant that Claudia recommends.
Natasha (16 January 2009) For the third time (unfortunately the rooms were booked last year) I stayed for a business trip in The Flying Pancake and for the third time i was happy ;-). I really recommend this place for short and long stay because at TFP you will like home...
Itzia, Montreal (07 January 2009) My fiance and I had the pleasure of staying at The Flying Pancake. We found this truly amazing place, while looking for a fire place and steam shower. They offer them both and it is in a unique and charming atmosphere.Set in a wonderful Dutch house, the two magnificent suites are simply superbe. It feels like a five-star suite. I can guarantee that there is no better deal in Amsterdam. I can vouch for that, as we had to look for other rooms on the weekends that The Flying Pancake was already fully booked. Altogether we stayed almost three weeks at TFP!
Waking up in the morning or sometime early afternoon and having our breakfast waiting at the door was heaven. I cannot forget to mention Claudia and her lovely family, who with their grace and kindness made our stay even more enjoyable. It was like magic, like a honeymoon...
The Flying Pancake is truly the best place I've ever stayed in. -
Scoobs83 (28 December 2008) We had a very nice stay at The Flying Pancake just before Christmas. Claudia is a very friendly and welcoming hostess and the accommodation is lovely. We particularly liked the little extra touches like the coffee machine and the Christmas Chocolates!
If you are looking for somewhere to stay for a short break in Amsterdam then we definitely recommend this bed and breakfast. -
Femke, Jill en Margreet (02 November 2008) We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad in Amsterdam!! Het appartement was erg sfeervol, netjes en comfortabel. Het ontbijt was een verwennerij! De sfeer waarvoor we regelmatig naar Amsterdam gaan was aanwezig in het appartement. Echt een aanrader!!! We komen zeker een keer terug...
Gianna et Michel (belgium) (11 September 2008) Oui, il est possible de retrouver un endroit cosy après une journée dans cette ville magique. Il ne faut pas plus de 2 minutes pour s'y sentir bien. Rien ne manque. Le calme, le confort, le charme... Que demander de plus ?
Tali Bradley (31 August 2008) Finest 'home away from home', lovely to return to after busy days and so pleasant that next time we will opt for time in with the lovely music collection!
Naskali, Finland (15 August 2008) We (me. my wife and 11 month old twin boys) stayed 4 nights in The Flying Pancake in beginning of April 2008. My opinion is that we could not find a better place to stay anywhere. The apartment has a lot of space, own stereo system, fireplace, etc. and it is furnished extremely well. We had some doubts about having twin babies with us, but with the help of the owner, Claudia, everything was perfect. We got the baby cots, high-chairs and even special yoghurt for babies. Each time when I'll be in Amsterdam, I'll stay in The Flying Pancake!
Tracy and Rob (23 June 2008) We had a most delightful stay in Cooks apartment from 19 - 23 June. The apartment is spacious and the finishing touches e.g chocolates, spirits etc make it very homely.
We were impressed by the selection of DVDs and cds and had a monst enjoyable stay.
Our favourute local bar was the Koosje and favourate local restaurant was Plancius - both had friendly and fun staff and served delicious food.
We also enjoyed chilling in the steam room after our adventures in Amsterdam -
MO / Udo (Germany) (21 May 2008) "The flying pancake" ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert, die Appartments sind klasse eingerichtet, vorallem das Bad mit Dampfdusche. Wir wurden ganz herzlich von Claudia empfangen und auch während unserer 2 Tage war sie absolut freundlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück (individuell zusammenstellbar) wurde morgens vor die Tür geliefert, d. h. Frühstück zu jeder Zeit möglich.....
Wenn wir nochmal nach Amsterdam fahren, dann auf jeden Fall mit Übernachtung im "Flying pancake". -
Jaqui and Ian Phillips (16 March 2008) We stayed at the FP two over the weekend of 1-2 March 2008. The location was excellent (near to a tram stop from the Central Station) and within an easy walk to some great shops and restaurants.
Claudia made us very welcome and the room was huge with good facilities such as open fire and steam shower. It was also quiet and comfortable.
Breakfast is delivered to your door - great selection of bread, pastries, cheese, meat, jam - and Claudia is so attentive that she noticed we weren't eating all the breads - so changed the delivery to include boiled egg and yoghurt.
Nice little touches like fresh tulips in the room, a great supply of DVD's, CD's and an iPod, and really good toiletries made the whole experience very special. -
Ben from Belfast (13 February 2008) The Flying Pancake is an excellent place to stay, if you are looking for a treat in Amsterdam. My girlfriend and I were looking for a boutique hotel in A'dam for two nights, as we don't like the Marriott-style chains when staying for leisure. We found the FP and were delighted with the whole experience. What we liked: great location - beautiful house with Dutch character - Claudia the perfect host - breakfast - space - luxuriously equipped room.
LagunaSteve (09 February 2008) Great location to everything in a quiet neighborhood. The rooms are like apartments with first class amenities. I would have expected to pay a lot more for the experience.
GrandDude (30 January 2008) My wife and I stayed at the Flying Pancake for an extended weekend with our adult daughter earlier this month. The Flying Pancake is small, comprised of two suites that occupy the second (Captain's suite) and third (Cook's suite) floors of a beautifully restored historic 18th century home located in a charming, quiet neighborhood outside of the hustle and bustle of downtown Amsterdam. Yet TFP is close enough to every single attraction of note that we found taxis and even the trams were completely unnecessary. We walked everywhere. My wife and I stayed in the Captain's suite, our daughter in the other. Each suite is roomy, with its own steam shower, kitchenette area, and sitting area with fireplace. The comfort of the rooms is matched only by the gracious and enthusiastic support of TFP's proprietress, Claudia Veldkamp. Don't miss the opportunity to sit down with her upon arrival (or any time during your stay) to ask for suggestions, or simply to review the map for the location of attractions you plan to visit. Our experience at The Flying Pancake seemed more a visit to the home of friends than merely a stay at a hotel - a unique experience well beyond our already heightened expectations.
Wig06 (27 January 2008) We stayed in the top suite in dec. 07, which is spacious and of a very good quality. TFP is more like an apartment rather than a B&B, so it feels private and homely. The shower / steam room was great and there are lots of other touches as already mentioned. Claudia is very helpful and allowed us to store baggage on our last day. We really enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend to others.
Miss_DLondon (05 January 2008) I had a really lovely time staying at the flying pancake b&b, it was beautifully furnished, the steam-shower with eucalyptus scent very luxurious! Claudia the host was very helpful, friendly and welcoming. Located on a quiet road, it was so relaxing and peaceful. Breakfast was left outside our room each morning, wrapped up inside a basket, which meant you could get up and have your breakfast completely at your leisure.
We found that we chose the coldest time of year to go! and so the brilliant collection of romantic comedy dvds, the fact that there was an ipod player and fireplace meant that we could have a very cosy night in without feeling that we were missing out on the Amsterdam nightlife.
We very much hope to stay again at the flying pancake. -
John Bullen (02 January 2008) My first visit to beautiful Amsterdam this past summer was enhanced by choosing to stay at The Flying Pancake. This is one of the most unique B&B's I have ever experienced, and it gave me a flavor of Dutch hospitality no hotel could ever come close to matching. The location is well within walking distance to the City Centrum, but far enough away to not be right in the middle of the noise and hustle of the city. The Cook's Apartment was clean, comfortable, reasonably priced, and I felt I had my own apartment/suite rather than 'just a room.' This will certainly be a 'do again' for me when I next come back to Amsterdam. (Soon, I hope!)
Thanks Claudia!! -
Alan Wells (14 December 2007) If you are looking for something that's a bit different, close to the centre of Amsterdam, and a real experience, you must try The Flying Pancake.
The two suites are just brilliant, so well appointed, spacious and comfortable.
The breakfast, which arrives at you door in a basket all beautifully presented with fresh fruit, bread, cold meat etc etc, is pure delight - like opening a wonderful hamper full goodies.
The room is spacious and modern looking out over the surrounding street scene, typically Dutch, interesting and within a few minutes walk of shops, museums etc. There is plenty to occupy guests with music CD's and DVD's and a well-stocked tray of different drinks. And the shower/steam room is a wonderful way to start your day.
And the family are a delight with a warm and friendly welcome. It wold be difficult to ask for more or find anywhere better.
SueFrance (08 October 2007) The Flying Pancake really deserves its excellent Trip Advisor rating. Claudia was extremely helpful and charming. She even lent us a laptop so that we could check in on-line for our flights home. Everything in the flat is of top quality, e.g. Bang&Olufsen Hi-Fi, Bose docking station for iPod. The sheets in particular were so good that I might have to buy some for home. We stayed in the top flat and friends stayed in the one below. This was an ideal arrangement for friends, as each couple are close but independent. After a day you don't even notice the steep stairs. It's in a pleasant quiet location near to a no.9 tram stop and plenty of good restaurants. Breakfast delivered to your door, what could be better?
SammyFinland (25 September 2007) We stayed at the Flying Pancake for four nights and our holiday was perfect. Really nice and quiet B&B Hotel with noble service and top-quality equipments.
ZagrebGizm (20 September 2007) This was our 2nd stay at The Flying Pancake and we have already booked our third! It always feels like coming back home, with Claudia and family there to welcome us with warmth and make sure we have all we need and more! Spacious, elegant suites, full of character and furnished with great taste, offer so much more that a bland hotel room. Claudia and the family make wonderful hosts and I can't wait to return! Thank you for all and we will surely keep coming back as often as possible!
PPsage Gibraltar (13 August 2007) We have just returned from a stay at The Flying Pancake. The rooms are magnificent, beautifully designed and service is excellent. It was so lovely that it was hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel to venture out when it began to rain.
Overall I would say this is probably the best hotel we have ever stayed in on holiday! -
Susane (18 February 2007) Great place to stay when visiting Amsterdam. Comfortable and nicely decorated spacious rooms with steam baths (we loved that, great to relax after long days of sightseeing) in a typical historic canal home. Much more interesting and pleasant than staying at a hotel and private. Claudia, the hostess, was very welcoming to our needs and extremely nice. I highly recommend it.

HiRISE Camera to Attempt Image of Curiosity Rover's Descent
Mars is an active place (we have the HiRISE images and scientific evidence to support this exciting contemporary view of the planet) and late Sunday night it will become even more active: after several months in transit followed by seven minutes of terror, Curiosity – the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover – should find itself on the surface of the Red Planet and ready to explore Gale Crater for the next Martian year.
To support the MSL mission and add an extra dash of drama, the HiRISE camera onboard the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) will attempt to capture Curiosity descending through the Martian atmosphere by parachute. This attempt is similar to our successful image of the Phoenix lander descending by parachute back on May 25, 2008. Success depends on (1) the MSL mission's own success and (2) our camera being at the right location in orbit and looking at the right spot at the right moment. The engineers and scientists have checked and rechecked their calculations, the commands have been successfully sent up to MRO, and now we hold our breath until Sunday night hoping that all of the logistics come together for a successful image.
Many of us HiRISE team members will be here at the HiRISE Operations Center beginning Sunday night to wait for this image to hit our servers for processing early in the morning on Monday. We plan to eat pizza and Cheetos, watch NASA TV's coverage of the landing, and monitor telemetry and data processing. If all goes well, if MSL lands safely and if the HiRISE camera actually captures the descent, then you will likely hear (and see) more Monday morning. In the following days, weeks, and months we also plan to take additional images from orbit of Curiosity hard at work on the Martian surface.
If you are in Tucson, Arizona, other locations with NASA centers, or would like to follow along with the landing online, there are a variety of events scheduled this weekend that you might enjoy:
- Science Downtown (Tucson) presents "Tucson Lands on Mars" on Saturday, August 4 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- NASA's Multi-Center Social Media Event for Mars Landing
- NASA TV coverage begins Sunday, August 5 at 8:30 p.m. PDT
- Universe Today's Live Webcast of the Curiosity Rover Landing begins Sunday, August 5 at 8:00 p.m. PDT

Kim Jong Washes Hands

- About
I get many private messages and comments a day from twats. These are not good messages to me. They were entertaining to reply to at first but now they are just irritating. To avoid this chaos, here are some simple guidelines for you to follow. Before you PM me or add comments, think about what you want to say:
-Do not send me messages telling me that I am weird. I already know that. KYM already knows that. It's old news.
-Don't tell me my presentation is too long or that it is crazy. I already know that as well.
-Don't hassle me to sign your retarded wall or add you as a friend.
-Don't tell me that the name "Kim Jong Tha Illest" is crap. I know it isn't the best name ever, but it is what I came up with 2 years ago, and it seems to have stuck pretty well, and people call me "Kim Jong" anyway.
-Don't send me messages saying "Hi" or "Are you here?". They are a waste of everyone's time.
-Don't get your pathetic step-dad to fight your battles for you (you know who you are)
-If you are like 8 years old or something, don't even bother.
-Finally, if your message conforms to these guidelines, please send your message in a language I can understand (English) with remotely good spelling or i'll just reply with a ton of insults and probably pictures of people collapsing due to the intense amount of shit flying out of their orifices. Thanks.

The Planet Moon is one of the most important planets in any Horoscope. Astrologically, it is regarded as Queen in the planets ( Sun is regarded as King ). The planet Moon controls our Emotions, Will Power, Wealth , Health as well as all our thoughts as per ancient vedic texts. A person having a strong Moon ( Moon in its own Sign - Cancer, Moon in its exaltation sign Taurus or Moon being aspected by naturally benefic planets like Jupiter ) is strong in regards to his Will Power and Decisions, is always a Positive thinker and never falls prey to negative states of mind like Depression.
On the other hand a person having an afflicted Moon ( Moon in enemy sign like Capricorn, Aquarius , Moon in its Debilitation sign Scorpion, Moon with malefics like Saturn or Rahu ) his horoscope is always prone to harbour Negative Thoughts in his Mind, he is unable to adjust even with his close friends and family members and is never able to achieve success in his life which is full of miseries due to his own deeds resulting out of a Weak/ Afflicted Moon.
The planet Moon can get afflicted due to any of the following reasons :
1. If the Moon is in its Debilitation sign Scorpion
2. If the Moon is in Enemy Signs like Capricorn, Aquarious
3. if the Moon is placed in houses other than 3, 6, 7, 10, 11
4. If the Moon is in conjunction with Malefic planets like Saturn ( Vish Yog ) or Rahu ( Grahan Yog )
5. If a person is born between the 5th Tithi of Krishna Paksh to 5th Tithi of Shukla Paksha, then also Moon gives negative effects
6. If there are no planets in the 2nd and 12th house from Moon ( except for Rahu Ketu ) and the Moon is not in the aspect of any Naturally Benefic Planet like Jupiter. This placement of Moon ( no planets in 2nd and 12th house from Moon ) is knwon as Kemadruma Yoga and is probably the worst affliction of Moon.
As per ancient vedic texts, a person having a Kemadruma Yoga in his horoscope is always in a state of Sorrow , does all kinds of Wrong Deeds, Poor, Dependant and is devoid of Health, Wealth, Wisdom, Knowledge, a good Wife, Progeny and Mental Peace as per ancient vedic texts. Such a person is always prone to Failures in his life mostly due to wrong decisions taken in a haste, he is subjected to Humiliation and Misery and devoid of the pleasures of Life as per ancient vedic texts. Even if a person is born in a Royal Family and he have a Kemadruma Yoga in his horoscope, then he will be having all kinds of negative influences in his life as mentioned above as per the ancient hindu vedic texts.
If the Planet Moon is afflicted in your horoscope in any of the manner described above, then a Remedial Puja is highly recommended since the Moon have very profound effects in our Lives.

Ever since Amoeba fan/Simpsons creator Matt Groening recently paid tribute to Amoeba Music by including an Amoeba Music Hollywood fashioned building (renamed Protozoa Records) in the Season 24, Episode 7 Simpsons show titled "The Day The Earth Stood Cool" that aired in early December I have been scratching my head and wondering what if Homer Simpson were to stop into Amoeba for some music shopping? What would he buy? What would be included in a Homer Simpson's WIMB (What's In My Bag?) episode if he were to go crate digging at Amoeba Music? Based on the numerous songs Homer has cited (most well worn Top 40 pop/rock hits that the cartoon character supposedly grew up listening to) and have been featured in episodes in the long running animated series, now in its 24th year, this is my stab at what Homer's WIMB might look like.
Bear in mind that this list only scratches the surface since over the years Groening and company have incorporated such a long list of hit songs into The Simpsons. In fact the show must have racked up quite a bill in copyright fees to license all this popular music for the show. But it is worth it since music often plays such an important role in so many episodes of The Simpsons - especially the Homer related songs. For example, when Homer and Marge pop into the open house next door to them and he imagines buying the house and what it would be like living next door to himself, just how horrible that would be, as he visualizes himself always playing Journey's "Separate Ways" and at way too loud volumes.

Rock music has way too many incredibly memorable guitar riffs to limit a best of list to just one hundred, but the 100 riffs that guitarist Alex Chadwick of The Chicago Music Exchange came up with for the above video performance ain't half bad, and it is a nice informal overview of the history of rock n' roll. Sure it's a subjective selection that includes a lot of mega hits of the genre, and no doubt every rock fan could come up with their own unique list of a hundred best guitar riffs. But I like what Alex has done: from his playing to his choices of riffs, and from how he segues from song to song, to how he plays it on his 1958 Fender Strat all in chronological order. Below is that list of songs and artists in order with the artist names that are blue highlighted linking back to the Amoeba Online Store. where you can find their respective music (CDs, LPs, DVDs) including (in near all cases) the song played by Alex.
1 "Mr. Sandman" Chet Atkins
3 "Words of Love" Buddy Holly
4 "Johnny B Goode" Chuck Berry
