Denmark x Reader: Bathing FunWARNING: swearing and mention of nudity!Standing in the doorway to your room with a bunch of clothes in your hands, you looked up and down the hallway and noticed that he was nowhere in sight and the coast was clear.Thus, you sneaked towards the bathroom at the end of the corridor, glancing carefully into every room to check if he was there.Indeed, he was in the kitchen, crouching in front of the fridge with grocery bags next to him and putting a plethora of beer and other alcoholic beverages into the fridge. The clinking of the cans and bottles should be too loud for him to hear you.You dashed past the ajar door to the kitchen and continued on your way to the bathroom, tiptoeing, anxious to be as quiet as a mouse to not attract his attention.You managed to reach the bathroom without being busted and slipped inside the room, closing the door behind you quietly and locking it.You listened to the sounds outside the bathroom. You coul
The Actual Challenge (Sebastian Stan x Reader)"Hey guys," You said into your camera at just above a whisper. You'd just snuck outside of the house to record your message and you had to be quick. You looked back through the glass of the sliding door and stepped a little further off the patio."So I'm sure you guys saw the bullshit that was my finacé's ice bucket challenge with Anthony Mackie. Well, I was just as amused and disappointed as you guys were, so I thought I'd go Prank vs Prank on him and make him make up for it-- Without his knowledge or consent of course. I'm gonna get him to come out here and he's wearing a white tank top and is still waking up, which means you'll get to hear his sexy sleepy voice, so all you jealous bitches better have a newfound respect for me."You winked and set up the camera to where Seb wouldn't be able to see it and went back inside, looking for your soon to be husband. "Seb! Where the hell did you go?""I'm over here," He said sleepily, laying halfway on the white couch, half on the hardwo
Playful Revenge [Rin Matsuoka x reader]It's about time for you to get your payback against a certain red sharkie. The plan is to wake Rin with animal kisses, LITERAL animal kisses. Today is the day, to finally have some payback.~~~~~~~Searching for the right animal, you met your junior high friend, Kisumi Shigino in the pet shop. Being his usual friendly self, Kisumi jumps to you with a cheerful smile. He reminisced on the past while keeping a hold on you."(Name)-chan~!!" Wrapping his arm around your shoulder, Kisumi beams a bright smile,"It's been a while! I haven't seen you since junior high! How are you doing? Is everything going well? I heard that you and Rin are a couple!"Kisumi happily rocks you side to side, which made you remember how friendly he can be. Every time you encountered him in junior high, he would fling his arm around your shoulder and continue talking nonstop. He hasn't changed as much but MAN did he grow! It never occurred to you how HANDSOME he's become si
Morning Love [Daddy!LevixMommy!ReaderxNekoLevi]Note: There's supposed to be an AU and Drabble in the title. XD[Just letting you know, this is about Faith, the daughter mentioned in previous stories! This is inspired by my big, back, fluffy beast, Mr. B, who does this to me every morning before school.]Pit pat. Pit pat. Pit pat.Faith stirred in her sleep. "No, just five more minutes."Pit pat. Pit pat. The perfect lines of her comforter sunk with each step."No," she muffled burying her face in the softness of her pillow.Pit pat, and then the noises halted altogether. She felt an extra lump of warm right at the base of her neck. Tiny breaths lifted a few pieces of hair off her face.She could never sleep late, because a certain fury alarm clock never allowed her to.A soft paw brushed against her forehead. "Reow.""Nn, not now Rivaille," she moaned, rolling over on her side, her mess of black hair tangling into an ebony mask.The light patters of his steps caught her attention agai
Splash War! - Various x Student! Reader "It's so damn hot!"Armin, who was cooling himself with a portable fan, weakly said, "Eren you shouldn't curse like that"Eren growled, "I wouldn't have to if this cheapskate school had some legitimate air conditioning!" He kicked the wall in anger only for him to cry out in pain.Armin shook his head and helped him.Over by the desk, you sipped the last of your water in sadness, "I wish I had more water…"Mikasa spoke in monotone, "We all wish we had more water"Feebly you replied, "I think Bertholt and Reiner might be dead"The four of you looked to see the poor boys passed out from the heat. Normally everyone would have helped them but the heat leeched out everyone's strength."You know this is stupid" Jean stated from the corner of the room.Everyone stared at him until Marco asked, "What's stupid Jean?""It's stupid how school start
Tease: Bend and Snap [Kuroo Tetsurou]Kuroo clicked his tongue, eyes following the volleyball as it ricocheted off the polished floor before flying out the gym door. He glanced over at his teammates, watching as the rest of them also watched the ball escape from them, their eyes locking in on its position, but their feet staying glued to the floor. A complete thirty seconds passed without anyone volunteering to run after the ball. Sighing to himself, he took the first step towards the exit, telling his team that he would retrieve the runaway sport equipment while they continued practicing. Making his way out the door, his eyes scanned the surrounding area in search for the volleyball. Upon spotting it resting in the grass, an amused smirk made its way onto his face as he noticed a familiar figure walking nearby."Oi, [Name]-chan, mind getting that for me?"Stopping in her tracks, said girl turned to face the guy who had called out to her. Her eyes landed on the captain with permanent bedhead and she had to suppress a smile
Growing Lady (Sebastian X Teen!Reader) (Modern!AU)"Sebastian..!!"The butler stopped in his tracks immediately and spun around with his maroon eyes flashing an alarmed fuchsia. With such inhuman speed, he dashed through the corridors in order to find his young lady. Lady (F/n) sounded in distress, and he'd be damned if he wasn't going to do anything about it.Reaching his destination, he quickly threw open the elegant wooden door and quickly stepped in, noticing his young lady with tears in her eyes and fiddling with the frills on her (f/c) sundress. "Young mistress," He steps to her urgently, his voice laced with concern. "What seems to be the problem?"Her tearful (e/c) eyes reach his and then avert to the floor once again, as if she was shameful. "Se...Sebastian...I think there's something wrong with me."His brow furrows in worry. "What is it, young mistress? You can tell me."Lady (F/n) seemed hesitant to answer before taking in a deep breath and opening her mouth. "B...Blood. In..
The Last One [BEN Drowned x Reader] You felt hypnotized, crimson pupils nearly shaking with hunger while looking over your form with complete desire. His black eyes flickered elsewhere for a moment, then coming back to you. Two small pale hands picked you, up gentle fingers caressing your sides. He led you to a shiny toaster, and it took you a moment to realize what was about to happen. You started to shriek, but it seemed to be ineffective as you could see BEN lick his lips. A loud slam echoed through the house, causing the elf's head to snap up as another being came into view. Dark, charcoal locks swung in rythm as an angry teen approached BEN."How fucking rude of you to do that to [First Name]! You know she's the last one, and your little shit eating self said we were going to go half-sies!" Jeff roared, paper white hands flying up to the blonde-haired boy's neck to choke him. Yes, you were that precious to the two they even named you. You were barely noticed before, but now that all the others were gone, you w

"What's on, rakkaani?" he asked, playing with a lock of your (length) (colour) hair."I'm bored."Poke!His violet eyes began to sparkle with joy. "Let's go out, then, rakkaani! We can go into the park nearby with Hanatamago!"You groaned reluctantly, squinting at the blinding sun outside the window. You shook your head. "No, it's way too hot outside."Poke!Tino glanced at the thermometer stuck to the window. "You're right, rakkaani. But it's not as hot as in a sauna, though.""Yeah, but after a sauna, we bathe in icy water. Plus, we only stay fifteen minutes in a sauna. A walk

On Tuesday (February 25), the "All That Matters" singer rented out an amusement park and attracted a gaggle of paparazzi.
As the Biebs was about to emerge from the fun house, one of his security team members had a scuffle with a photographer, taking his camera and giving it to the security's driver, who then sped away.
Later, law enforcement found the camera in the Escalade parked at Justin's rented Atlanta home. Police say the guard and driver were arrested for felony theft. Stay linked to GossipCenter for more as the story develops.

These doors are beautiful. received the same quality of door. We are extremely happy with our choice and would use this company again for other remodeling projects.
changes we might want to make, like replacing a triple casement with a double to let in more light and change some small double casements to single, awning style windows. We went with his suggestions, and had the window over the kitchen sink bumped out a little to create a knick-knack shelf over the sink - it looks great and so much bigger looking than the double casement that was there originally!
He was able to bring out sample windows of both the brand he originally quoted us as well as a similar, but slightly cheaper option. After we placed the order, there was about a six week wait for manufacturing. The installation took 2 days, and
Overall it went really smoothly and I'm so glad we decided to do the whole house at once.

Overall it went really smoothly and I'm so glad we decided to do the whole house at once.
I just purchased a condo -- in the inspector's report, he noted that all the windows had broken balance systems (fast falling), and there were a couple with seal failure. I needed to get an estimate right away so I could negotiate repairs with the seller, and professional, quick to respond and the customer service was seriously top notch. He was very willing to work with me on getting whatever estimates I needed to give to the seller. "
Estimate was timely and well explained. Installer arrived on time and worked continually till the project was complete. Everything was hauled away and cleaned up. We have been very happy with the new windows and have had no problems. "
The work generally went well. The miter work was not to my satisfaction and the installer attempted to redo it. Overall, the quality of the window installtion was good. I didn't like the miter work. "
Work was done quickly and cleanly in one day. Everything was a pleasent experience, salesman wasn't pushy and treats you with respect, he checked in repeatedly on some follow up items. "
We think we're the best, and we can prove it.

The new Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM Art, for example, is the world's only zoom lens to achieve a maximum aperture F1.8 throughout the entire range. Read More
Ricoh squeezes an APS-C sensor into new GR camera
The Ricoh GR series of cameras has been a cult classic with street photographers since the release of the GR1 in 1996, thanks in part to their understated styling, quality glass and durable build.

Now Ricoh is fighting back by re-launching the GR with a large DSLR-like APS-C sensor. Read More

Acura - 2015 TLX - Durability, Quality and Reliability
All-New 2015 Acura TLX Performance Sedan Begins Production in Marysville, Ohio
Acura today marked the start of mass-production of the all-new 2015 Acura TLX at the Marysville Auto Plant with Acura's new performance luxury sedan slated to land at dealerships nationwide in August. With the launch of the new TLX, more than 90 percent of Acura vehicles sold in America are now produced in America1.

Checking and Changing Your Car's Fluids
A car is an intricately-designed machine with many components. Checking and replacing your car's fluids at the recommended intervals is one of the most important things you can do to ensure that your vehicle lasts for years to come.
The following fluids all play important roles in your vehicle:
- Oil
- Transmission fluid
- Power steering fluid
- Brake fluid
- Windshield wiper fluid
- Engine coolant
Starting Out: Checking Your Oil
Your oil is the first fluid which will be checked during your vehicle's lifetime, with more recent vehicles coming in around 5,000-7,500 miles. After that, a general rule of thumb is to have your oil changed approximately every 5,000 miles, with synthetic oil lasting much longer.
However, it's easy to check your oil on your own. To avoid any costly repairs and catch problems early, we recommend checking oil levels at least once a month. Use your vehicle's dipstick to determine your oil level—it should be between the two level markers on your dipstick. The oil should also be light golden brown and be slightly thicker than cooking oil. If you notice any irregularities, bring your vehicle in regardless of your last oil change.
Your windshield wiper fluid will also be refilled as needed starting at your first service. This fluid is what is used to clean your windshield, and will need to be changed accordingly based on the frequency of use.
Continuing Maintenance: Replace as Needed
After your car's first service, we'll check all of your fluid levels regularly and refill as necessary. Your brake fluid and power steering fluid will be checked at each oil change, but do not appear in the regular maintenance schedule. However, both play important roles: brake fluid serves to generate the pressure needed to activate your brakes, and power steering fluid creates pressure to power your vehicle's steering gear.
Engine coolant will need to be replaced at various times depending on the severity of your vehicle usage. The coolant serves to absorb the heat from your engine and disperse it through the radiator. Some experts recommend flushing and replacing your coolant every two years or 24,000 miles.
The Road Ahead: Changing the Transmission Fluid
Transmission fluid can last tens of thousands of miles, but we recommend being cautious. Even then, your first flushing will likely not occur until 35,000-40,000 miles. This process is much cheaper than getting your transmission itself repaired, which can occur if fluids are not adequately maintained.
The transmission fluid is used as a medium to create pressure for the transmission system, helps to absorb heat, lubricates moving parts, and keeps dirt and debris from building up in transmission. If you find yourself frequently towing, driving off-road, or idling your vehicle for long periods, you may need to get the fluid replaced sooner. Ask one of our service technicians for details.
Our service department is your one-stop-shop for fluid service and replacement. Schedule your service online today.
Getting Your Kids in the 'Back-to-School' Frame of Mind
Getting your kids ready for school after a long vacation can prove to be a hassle for everyone involved. The transition can be smooth or bumpy, depending on your kids' frame of mind during the summer. Successfully getting your children in the 'back-to-school' mindset involves organization, repetition, and routine. Keep reading for tips on making your kids' transition back to school as easy as possible for you and your children.
Talk about school
Frequently remind your kids that their first day back to school is coming up, and set up a calendar with the first day circled. Sit down with your kids and ask them how they are feeling about the upcoming school year. Be encouraging and supportive. Begin with the understanding that all kids experience some sort of hesitation or anxiety when going back to school. Remind your kids that it will be nice to see their friends and classmates again, and give them positive ideas about returning to school. Mention exciting opportunities such as making new friends, joining clubs or sport teams, or even just learning about interesting subjects.
Start a sleeping schedule
During the summer, kids often go to sleep late and wake up late. Start implementing earlier bedtimes at least a week or two before the first day of school. Nothing will make an early morning routine worse than a lack of sleep the night before. Plus, kids need a full night's sleep to stay mentally alert and involved in class all day. Even older kids will benefit from this new sleep schedule, and it will make learning and morning routines much easier once school starts.
Establish morning and evening routines
Practicing daily routines will significantly decrease early morning chaos on the first day of school. Getting into a set morning routine that includes waking up, getting dressed, and eating breakfast will speed things along on that first day back. Set a morning schedule now, and get your child an alarm clock to decrease your morning rush and to give them the responsibility of waking themselves up in the morning. In the evenings, cut back on TV and videogame time. During the school year, this time will be spent doing homework. Get your kids in the routine of reading in the evenings during summer vacation to make the transition back to school easier.
Eat a healthy breakfast
Research has continually shown that eating a healthy breakfast every day is extremely important, especially for young children and students. Without proper nutrition in the morning, kids tend to feel drowsy and distracted. Many children don't like eating breakfast in the morning because they are not used to getting up that early, so as soon as you begin setting a practical sleeping schedule for your kids, also introduce a healthy breakfast routine. A nutritious breakfast will give your kids the long-lasting energy that they need to kick start their school day.
Pack lunches
Unless you pay for school lunches, your kids' midday meal usually comes from home. Get yourself or your children in the habit of planning their lunches the night before. You can also pack the non-perishable items in their lunches the night before to save even more time in the morning. Include healthy snacks and try to limit the amount of junk food and sugary drinks in their lunches. Nutritious snacks will give your kids the energy and important nutrients that they need to focus on learning.
Lay out clothes
Avoid last-minute searches for socks or your kids' favorite article of clothing by laying out their outfit for the next day the night before. Ask your child for input and suggestions to help them feel a sense of inclusion and responsibility. For younger children, practicing getting dressed quickly and efficiently can save lots of time and hassle in the mornings.
Shop early for school supplies
Going shopping for school supplies ahead of time will relieve the anxiety of having incomplete supplies on the first day of school, and will also help prepare your child for school. Bring your kids along with you and have them help pick out the things that they want to use for school. Most school systems provide complete lists of necessary school supplies to make your shopping trip even easier.
Set up a study area
A designated study area will help keep your kids focused on homework, assignments, and studying. This space can also double as an area where your kids' school items are located. Backpacks, lunchboxes, and the next day's clothes will all be conveniently located in one spot the night before, so in the morning your kids have everything they need already prepared and laid out for them.
Go over safety tips
Last but not least, it is important to go over safety tips before your kids leave for their first day of school. Teach your children basic safety measures such as to never travel alone and to stay away from strangers. More importantly, teach your kids to be aware of situations and actions that are out of the ordinary, and to follow their own instincts. Make sure they know that if something doesn't feel right, they should keep their distance and tell an adult.
Having everything prepared and organized ahead of time will save you and your children a lot of time and energy, and it will give your kids time to prepare and get excited for the upcoming school year! By reintroducing school-year habits and routines before school starts, kids naturally shift out of the summer mindset and get ready for a year of learning.

Little-Known Labor Day Facts
Quick, when you think "Labor Day," what immediately comes to mind? Sales? Grills? Football? Before firing up the grill, driving to the mall, or donning your team's colors, take a look at some facts about Labor Day that might surprise you.
The first Labor Day was actually a Tuesday. Tuesday September 5, 1882 in New York City, to be exact. The holiday didn't officially move to the first weekend of September until 1884.
McGuire or Maguire?
The subject of Labor Day's father is a little controversial. Historically, carpenter and co-founder of the American Federation of Labor, Peter J. McGuire, has been credited for suggesting the holiday to honor the working man. Others claim that Matthew Maguire, a machinist, was the real founder. Maguire fans cite research that shows he suggested the holiday in 1882 as secretary of the Central Labor Union in NY.
Average American worker
The average American worker in the late 1800s deserved a break much more than the average American worker today. Typical work weeks involved 12-hour days, seven days a week, just for basic living wages. Some factories and mines even employed children as young as five or six-years-old.
The Parade That Almost Wasn't
The first official record of Labor Day recorded it as a celebration that should host a street parade to show to the public "the strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations" of the community, then a festival for recreation and amusement. The first parade's turnout was so paltry that it was almost cancelled, until two hundred marchers from the Jewelers Union of Newark Two showed up with a band and saved the day.
Canada was first
Yes, Canada coined the first Labor Day in 1872, ten years before the U.S., but it was more of a large demonstration for workers' rights than a celebration of laborers.
Sorry folks, but it's time to put away your crisp white linen suits and white leather pants, if you have them. Technically, it's no longer in fashion to wear white or seersucker after Labor Day because summer is officially over.
Oregon Originals
Oregon was the first state to make Labor Day a holiday in 1887, making Oregonians the original Labor Day hipsters.
Good Old Grover
Labor Day wasn't a national holiday until President Grover Cleveland made it so in 1894. As a result, many resident hipsters of Portland, Oregon stopped celebrating Labor Day around this time, because it had become too mainstream.*
Whether you find yourself snooping out sales, blazing up some burgers, or watching the first pigskin game of the season this Labor Day, we hope you enjoyed learning a little bit about the workers' holiday.
*This is a joke, not a fact.
What to Do with your Summer Harvest
Your well-tended garden provides fresh vegetables throughout the spring and summer. At summer's end and perhaps into early fall, your plants are still heavy with the fruits of your labor. You pick the vegetables and cut sprigs of herbs, but it's quite a harvest and you want to preserve these healthy foods for use during the winter months. How does one do it?
Canning includes two methods for preserving foods: boiling-water bath and pressure canning. Acidic foods, such as tomatoes, may be preserved using the boiling-water bath. Jellies and jams made from berries and fruits, tomato-base sauces, and pickled vegetables may also be canned using the boiling-water bath method.
For low-acid vegetables, such as squash, beans, peas, okra, and corn, you need a pressure canner. This device heats the water to at least 240 degrees F to guard against botulism growing within the sealed jars.
Canning with a pressure canner is a somewhat complex method for preserving low-acid vegetables. An alternative to canning is freezing.
For most vegetables, a rough chop, a quick blanching followed by a cold water bath are all the preparation needed for freezing. To blanch your vegetables, bring a pot of water to the boil. Put the vegetables in the boiling water for approximately three minutes. Remove the vegetables and place them in a bowl of ice water for one to two minutes. This "shocks" them, and stops the cooking process.
Remove them from the ice water and allow the pieces to dry on a clean towel. Place them in a freezer bag and squeeze the air out and seal the bag. Label the bag to identify the contents and the date.
Frozen vegetables don't usually have the same crunch as fresh, but they're ideal for winter soups and stews, as well as a stir fry. You can also puree them to add flavor to gravies and sauces.
The high acid content of vinegar acts as a preservative, and when you add vinegar to vegetables, the acid lowers the pH balance of the vegetables and creates an environment inhospitable to dangerous microbes.
Simply put, if you seal a mix of chopped vegetables, such as carrots, cucumbers, and peppers in a jar with a prepared vinegar solution, you've pickled a vegetable mix.
Make a bed of ice at the bottom of a bowl and add your chopped vegetables to the bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours. Combine vinegar, pickling salt, and seasonings in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the vegetables to the vinegar solution for a few minutes.
Drain the vegetables, but reserve the liquid. Place the vegetables in sterilized jars, and then add the reserved vinegar solution. Either process the jars in a boiling-water bath or allow the jars to cool and keep in the refrigerator for up to six months.
Safety Measures
Preserving foods allows you to use all your harvested vegetables. But any method used, with the exception of freezing, carries with it the risk of microbial contaminations.
Always consult a reputable source for recipes and for food preservation methods. Follow the directions, paying particular attention to sterilization methods and processing times. The result will be delicious garden vegetables and fruits for you to enjoy in the cold months ahead.

Matt changed the minute he took over gumble's seat. His personality went from warm and friendly to severe looking and aggressive. I don't like him any more. I have started watching GMS, they all seem to be relaxed and like each other... and I like Charlie Rose on CBS too.
Get rid of him nobody likes him, Ann was great but she needed someone to dress her, some of her outfits were questionable @ best
I like Matt but they need a new face and attitude. I like
Lester but think David Gregory or Willy Geist would also be very good. But they are missing the big problem......Samantha is not a good fit with anyone. She interrupts and tries to take over everything. She is really on a ego trip. Reeel her in.
i am on the fence re matt lauer firing. i enjoy him as a host but do not know all the inside stuff. i do not think lester holt would be the best replacement.
Ann was awesome I miss her. I like the guy from meet the press he should take matt's place and sit with ANN CURRY!

Two states, Hawaii and Delaware, began certifying same sex civil unions on New Year's Day, bringing the list of states that recognize same same sex partners to five.
New Jersey, Rhode Island and Illinois are the other states where same sex civil unions are recognized. While not quite the same as a marriage, civil unions confer most of the rights of marriage on both partners.
Just six states recognize full-fledged same sex marriages: Iowa, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Vermont and New Hampshire, along with the District of Columbia.
In granting same sex couples the state's recognition, lawmakers in both Hawaii and Delaware specifically noted in the law that they did not intend to "revise the definition or eligibility requirements of marriage."

Every apartment has a private terrace to enjoy the landscapes and eating outside. There is a shared garden with pool and gazebo and another huge garden with barbecue.

- Suitability:
- Long-term Renters Welcome
- pets not allowed
- children welcome
- wheelchair inaccessible
Guestbook comments from the manager
After a few weeks of city-based travel we were looking for a rural holiday house and this place was perfect. La Favilletta is divided into three or four self-contained dwellings, each with its own outdoor area where you can set out your lunch or dinner and enjoy the views over the lovely valley. There were only two of us (mother and daughter), so the two-bedroom 'Il Portico' suited us perfectly. Both bedrooms were generous in size and had a lot of space to empty our packs and hang up our wrinkled clothes for the week; there is also a shared washing machine and drying racks we made good use of. We were in the change-over between seasons and on a few evenings we opted to turn on the central heating which made the whole house very cosy. (There is an extra charge if you choose to use the heating but it's metered so you can keep track of it.) Bernardo Dionisio, whose family owns La Favilletta, was an efficient and friendly young manager and our experience of renting Il Portico went well from start to finish. We also thought it was very economical compared to other places we stayed in in Italy.
What we really loved was the huge marble-topped kitchen/dining area where we spread out and cooked up a storm. The kitchen was very well-appointed with a lot of equipment you wouldn't usually expect in a holiday rental, and previous guests had left a range of seasonings and other things that made it a bit cheaper for us to get going (Australians - think coast house).
La Favilletta is in a hilltop location above the town of Pontasieve on the junction of the Sieve and Arno Rivers, and it is a good base to get into Florence for sightseeing. From Pontasieve station it is a short train trip to the central station of Florence, 20 km away, and if you start early enough in the morning you can park your car in free municipal parking near the train station. (NB If you drive your car into Florence you may face a fine, as other Tripadviser reviewers have recently reported in reviews of car hire in Italy - check it out if you want to drive in.) La Favilletta includes the use of bicycles and bike locks, so don't neglect the option of walks and rides in the surrounding countryside.
Bernardo Dionisio
My name is Bernardo and i managed my holiday house since 2008. I try to do my best ro respect the essence of Tuscany style n the decoration of apartments and outside. I give tips for eating and do things in the surrounding area during the stay.
I like to know people from all over.
This property was buyed by my grandfather in 1975 when i was only for. It is a haouse of the seventeenth century. First a place for parayes, then a farmhouse with animals, barn, ecc ecc.
It took a long time to restore the first floor (apartment La Favilla), that was the one in wich me and my family lived during the seventies and eighties.
In 1996 we restored the barn that now is the apartment il fienile (2+2) that is 10 meters far from the main building.
In 2006 we restored for the secnd time Apartment Il Portico that is at the ground floor, under apartment La Favilla.
So i have many memories of this house when i was a kid, memories of the many party we make in this house 20 years ago.
Now things have changed as this house has more and more became my job. But is very beutiful to give other people the opportunity to stay in a so beloved place
The benefits of this holiday house are first of all the position. High, on a top of the hill the house gives the opportunity to enjoy unique views from everywhere and especially from private terraces.
There are many services, most of them are free: wifi, parking, pool, laundry (shared), parking, barbecue.
Our area is not very exploited and is still very authentic with many attractions.
The garden is big with and the property give the chance to have a good privacy, even in the high season

Bobby V - Put It In
Artist: Bobby V
Featuring: K. Michelle
Producer: The Platinum Brothers
Album: Dusk Til Dawn
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 8 total votes )
From the title of Bobby V's newest single, Put It In, it's fairly easy to see which direction this one's going and that is straight to the bedroom. Joined by songstress K. Michelle, the former Mista songster doesn't shy away from taking part in a little musical foreplay as her croons about his ability to "have you begging for more." Absent from our pages since last year's release of the Akon-assisted MP3, singer turned Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta reality star K. Michelle proves to be a welcomed addition to the sultry effort, which is led by the steamy, percussion-driven board work of The Platinum Brothers. If you can handle more heat from the Atlanta crooner, his pro-pro-provocative Dusk Til Dawn album will be released on October 16.

'Out and About' great blog for Smokies travelers
News Sentinel reporter Morgan Simmons and artist Don Wood have a great blog on knoxnews.com called "Out and About." There is a lot of great information and interesting tidbits on the blog, and the posts really make me want to get up to Great Smoky Mountains National Park and do some exploring. Recent posts include topics such as Elkmont cabin restoration, making reservation for the Cataloochee Campgrounds, information about Chota Canoe Club's paddling school (I want to do that!) and how to sign up for park road closure updates.
Thanks Morgan and Don!
Cozy coffee shop at home in downtown Maryville
I spent yesterday morning camped out at the Vienna Coffee House at 321 High St. in downtown Maryville. It is one of my favorite Wi-Fi spots in Blount County. The shop opened in October and has quickly become a regular stop-off for my husband and I when we want to have a cup of coffee and a treat. VIenna Coffee Company is a local coffee roaster and their products are sold and served at many East Tennessee businesses. I used to live very close to the roastery and the air in the neighborhood always smelled like waffles.
The shop is in an old house in a historic corner of downtown. I love all the old houses in the neighborhood that have been converted to offices -- so much detail and character went into these structures. This area also is great for walking. Just down the street from the shop is a bridge that goes across busy Lamar Alexander Parkway and takes pedestrians to the Maryville College campus and the Clayton Arts Center.

TARPON SPRINGS — It looks more like a high-end department store or a luxury-car dealership than a traditional gun range.
Renderings of the 57,000-square-foot Reload indoor shooting range proposed for a derelict plot on U.S. 19 in Tarpon Springs show a brightly lit, spacious sales floor, walls stocked to the ceiling with rifles, a cafe with high-top tables and a room with a state-of-the-art computer simulator.
With 45 shooting lanes — including seven for long-range, 100-yard target practice — the firearms center would be among the largest in the Tampa market catering to everyone from learners to seasoned professionals, even law enforcement.
Developers say it will be a destination for a growing, maturing market of gun owners looking for a friendlier, full-service spot for honing their gun-handling skills.
Reload has the potential to be the third "Five Star" gun range in the Tampa area, among a select few in the nation rated highly for top-notch facilities and customer service.
But not everyone thinks this "Old Florida" town known chiefly for its 100-year-old sponge diving industry needs the distinction as Pinellas County's premiere locale for gun recreation.
"I was shocked to know that our beautiful Tarpon Springs will at a possible future date become a Disneyland to people with guns," resident Rene Torres wrote to city commissioners, who will vote on final approval for the range next month.
"We risk no longer being known as the oldest community in Pinellas or even the home of the Greek Sponge Docks: We will simply be known as a Shooting Range Mecca."
The city has received several letters from concerned residents and anti-gun activists.
At a city planning board meeting this month, at which the range was approved unanimously, public opinion appeared more mixed.
Sgt. Michael Trill of the Tarpon Springs Police Department, who said he was speaking to the issue personally, said: "It's nice I don't have to drive to go to an indoor range with a rifle range over 30 minutes to teach my children to handle handguns responsibly."
❖ ❖ ❖
Putting questions of gun safety aside, what's driving the construction of Reload and other high-end shooting centers across the country is basic economics.
Gun sales exploded in late 2012 through 2013 in Florida and across the nation, driven by concerns that the government would significantly restrict sales in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shootings in Connecticut.
The number of pre-sale background checks recorded by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement hit 114,563 in January 2013, more than double the same month the previous year.
With no major legislative changes in the pipeline, background checks have slowed in the first few months of this year, with 75,794 in February, but that's still much higher than previous years.
The opening of bigger, more advanced shooting ranges appears to be a response to an overall upward trend in sales in the past decade, which means more people and a broader demographic are buying guns and learning to use them.
"These days, people don't buy a handgun or rifle and let it sit at home; they seek out ranges to gain proficiency and enjoy the range of shooting sports," said Michael Bazinet, a spokesman for the National Shooting Sports Foundation trade group.
Florida has five of these top-ranked ranges, more than any other state. Tampa has two — Shooters World and Florida Firearms Academy — which puts the city in a tie only with Las Vegas.
"It's not just come in and shoot, but it's a place where people meet. We make it comfortable for them to spend time here," Kitzis said. "Our members consist of many more women and families than we even anticipated."
❖ ❖ ❖
That's much the way Clearwater developer European Equities has pitched the proposed Tarpon Springs gun range.
Far from creating a nuisance or a public-safety hazard, they say they want the new complex to replace a dilapidated hotel and restaurant that's become a haunt for vagrants and drug dealers.
Designed by industry leader Action Target, the plans for the building include two layers of solid concrete separated by an insulated air gap to ensure residents in the neighboring Stonehedge mobile home park aren't irritated by a constant tapping noise.
The developer has planned meetings with neighbors to assuage any worries about noise, lead contamination and other hazards.
Members of the planning board expect it to be a great economic development driver.
"Thank you for coming to Tarpon," planning board member Anita Protos said. "There is some opposition from citizens on this, but I think once they realize what it is and how it really works, the fear will be gone."
❖ ❖ ❖
That's not likely to happen for Arthur Hayhoe of the Florida Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, a longtime crusader for more restrictive gun laws in Florida.
Hayhoe organized an informational meeting for residents last week that became heated at times.
He says many people either aren't aware of the planned gun range or don't know about the negative impact it could have on the community.
While Reload hasn't requested variances to any city or state rules, Hayhoe says the absence of regulation should concern people.
A law passed in 2011 gives almost all authority for regulating gun use to the state, giving local authorities little ground for action if there's a problem, he said.
In other parts of the Tampa area and across Florida, local residents have had little recourse when someone sets up a gun range and they find bullets sailing over their property, Hayhoe says.
"If there's any problem, don't call the sheriff because he won't come," he said.
These issues may not come up at a new, high-tech shooting range, but some people simply don't like the idea of bringing more people into town who may be carrying weapons.
Kay Pitchon wrote to the city: "In short order, we will all have to assume that everyone is "packing" — in our restaurants, parks, stores, and schools. And as we see too often in the news, differences of opinion regarding loud music, texting, unexpected lane changes, and limited parking spaces is routinely settled by waving and shooting a gun."
If the City Commission approves the project, the shooting range is expected to break ground by the summer and open in early 2015.
Developer David McComas says it could form a model for a chain of Reload gun ranges.
"We've traveled the country looking at ranges to make sure we've built something that's as safe as possible, that's going to be a lasting business model, that people can enjoy and be educated," he said.

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – Street racing may be to blame for an accident that sent a car flying through a metal fence and smashing into a north Sacramento apartment complex overnight.
The crushed car was pulled from an apartment at a complex on Fulton and Northrop avenues overnight.
Police say the driver of the car may have been racing when he lost control, plowed through a fence and into one apartment.
Another apartment was also damaged when a subwoofer from the car's sound system was catapulted through a window.
No one inside the apartments was injured. However, the car's driver was taken to the hospital with moderate to major injuries.
Officers are also looking into if this crash is alcohol related.
