Three days of absolute 5 star treatment at Abano Grand Hotel
by, 05-16-2011 at 01:18 PM (982 Views)
My husband and I arrived at the Abano Grand Hotel in Abano, Italy,the day after we ran the
Trieste marathon on May 8, 2011. What a fabulous place to arrive after exhausting ourselves
for many hours of running and aching feet. This reminds me of an era long ago, where
elegance was expected of such a high caliber hotel. The lobby is magnificent, beautiful marble floors, chandeliers, elegant furniture from a period of time when fortunes were spent on
ornate furniture and accents. Our Luxury Link package included breakfast, all dinners, 2 massages,
(need I say very much needed and appreciated), bikes at our disposal, an absolutely gorgeous
room with a balcony and to top it off, a bottle of Proseco and fresh fruit awaited us in our room.
First, I have to describe the food -- oh, the food! Dinner, by itself, was an event. There was a
huge buffet of the most delicious strawberries I have ever eaten, all the salad ingredients fresh
from the area, cheeses, desserts, I could go on forever; but, this was ONLY the salad. The
other 4 courses were chosen by you, from the freshest fish, pasta or meat, an appetizer, a
pasta entree and the Special dessert from the area, (or choose from the other 5 dessert selections offered on the salad bar, which were outstanding). Ok, I forgot to mention, there was also a pianist, which added to the elegance of the evening. All waiters wore tuxedos and were so friendly, we spent hours over our meal and enjoyed every minute of it. Onto the massages; an hour, each, of complete relaxation. There are many different choices of massages, as well as spa treatments.
Funny to see people walking around in either blue or white robes, depending on their treatment
choices. the pedestrian area was very close by and was lively in the evening. Very easy area to bike and stroll in as well as close to Padova, another charming city. This was the 11th Luxury Link pacakge I have purchased in about 3 years; and, I must say, the most inclusive of "extras" I
have purchased. This package was one of the best, I highly recommend it to anyone traveling
in this area of Italy.

Hi-Tech Tooth Replacement
Dental Implants
Implant Dentistry is becoming the procedure of choice for patients seeking long term endurance of restorative dental components and/or establishing dental function that in many cases, Mother Nature doesn't even provide.
Dr. Muslin uses a variety of proven implant technologies for replacing individual teeth, replacing several teeth, creating implant anchors for premium bridges and the now popular use of mini implants or standard implants for anchoring dentures and advanced (celebrity style) prosthodontics.
Implants – Unsurpassed Endurance and Function
It is well known that implants certainly can play a critical role for recreating smiles or dental function. What many patients don't realize is how important technical aspects of implants are.
The application and use of certain implant procedures combined with the "correct" implant materials is what determines how successful the treatment will be.. and how long it endures.
Implant Failure Problems
Like many other dental treatments, implant failures are usually not due to product failures but instead are related to a variety of factors including mis-matches of technologies, products, implant site characteristics, implant preparation and in some instances, even patient "behaviors"… to name a few.
Dr. Muslin assures his patients that the implant procedure precisely matches the cosmetic and reconstructive goal or need of the patient. Nobel Biocare, well known for it's implant technologies, is aware of the differences of patient need and thereby provides a wide variety of implant materials that are suited for particular applications.
Implant Dentistry – One Size Does Not Fit All
When considering dental implants, it is important to know the different types of implant materials used for anterior (front) tooth replacement, implants for anchoring various types of bridgework and implant elements for posterior (back) teeth and molars. Visit our Before and After Photo Gallery for seeing actual patient case histories of creative implant treatments.
For denture wearers, our office provides the perfect implant solution for patients who want to eliminate problems of ill fitting, loose, gagging and other near-intolerable features of denture use.
It should be understood there is no "one size fits all" concept in the use of implant devices.
This critical matching process of technology and application is closely monitored in our office to assure implant patients maximum benefit of cosmetic result …. and perhaps more importantly… long term endurance.
Same Day Implants are popular for patients who desire to avoid a toothless appearance while the implant site(s) is/are healing.
Computerized Engineering Applications in Dentistry
Many patients who have bone density problems (either existing or potential) or jawbone structures that are unusual (genetic, trauma or disease based), oftentimes assume that implant dentistry is not a reasonable option or treatment.
Advances in Biomedical and Dental Engineering sciences now enable Dr. Muslin to use a state of the art Computer Guided Implant (SimPlant) technology that can assures successful implant treatments for practically any special need.

Tia Maria Lounge chair
01 descripción del producto
descripción de productos
Tia Maria embodies the search for perfect seating ergonomics. A chair, a small armchair and standard armchair which demand maximum quality of the supports and where the slant of the frame, together with the symmetry or asymmetry of the armrests, determines the choice between formal and informal posture. The base is in chromed tubular steel and describes the perimeter shape. The leather upholstery is load-bearing, the synthesis of a linear approach to the idea of comfort.

My lunchbox for today - sesame soba noodles with sliced carrots and cubed chicken breasts.
Lazy lunch yesterday - smooshed an avocado onto a slice of chestnut bread from Paris Baguette. Washed it all down with some chilled sauvignon blanc. So good and lunch all done in less than a minute
Had a pseudo day-off from work today, so cooked for my family! Dad is a real carnivore so decided to cook this pork belly curry udon. Used the House Brand curry block and this was ridiculously easy.
In the pot..
This is what I did.
Add the sliced pork belly to a clean and dry pan and fry off til lightly browned. Add a diced onion and carrots and fry til fragrant. Add enough water to cover everything and cook over a lower simmer.
About 20 minutes before everything is cooked, turn the heat off and dissolve the curry block in the cooking broth. Turn the heat back on and cook for about 15 minutes. Bring the curry up to a boil and add the green beans and udon.
Here is what it looks like when served up -
Dad's massive portion with lots of meat
My dantier portion
Creamy baked pasta topped with mozzarella! Here is how I did it!
1. Boil the pasta according to the package instructions before draining it and running it under some tap water to stop the cooking process. Tip everything into a large baking dish.
2. To a non-stick pan, add some bacon ladons (I used about 300g) and fry them off.
3. Add 3 large sliced leeks and fry until soft. Season with salt and pepper at this stage.
4. Turn the heat down and add 600ml (!) of double cream. Simmer gently until the cream has been reduced by half.
5. Check for seasoning before pouring the sauce into the pan with the pasta. Stir everything through.
6. Top liberally with grated mozzerella and stick it into a 190°C oven for 25 minutes.
Really unhealthy but really delicious!
Did these nails ages ago but only found time to post about them today! Decided to use multiple colors to create crazy multi-colored polka dotted nails!
Used these nail polishes
From L - R, Barry M's NP66, Nails Inc's Royal Botanical Gardens, Nails Inc's Kensington Palace Gardens, Collection 2000's Mint Mojo, 17's Fairy Cake and one of Claire's Magnetix series.
Applied two layers of each of the colours first and allowed them to dry completely before applying the white dots using a nail dotter! Really pretty!
Jumping on the bandwagon here by getting butterbeer from Starbucks. This is just a toffee nut frappuccino with extra caramel syrup added. I think I might have got it slightly wrong though - it's supposed to be a creme frappucino base but I needed the caffeine. My sister loved it but I thought it was horrifically sweet. Such a disappointment :(
10 minute lunch. Soba noodles and sliced cucumbers tossed in a vinaigrette made using gochujang, black vinegar, soy, grated garlic and sesame oil. Really messy as i mixed it all togethre in the same bowl but really yummy
Made a pork belly stew for the family today. Used gochujang, chili powder, apples, garlic, onions and soy. Really yummy!
Did my nails again a couple of days ago. My base color is Maybelline's Atomic Violine, a really pretty deep glittery royal purple and the sequin nail polish is from Revlon. Got the Maybelline nail polish ages ago - I'm not even sure if they have discontinued it by now!
This glittery and opulent nail look is perfect for Diwali which is just around the corner!
Cooked a vegetarian meal for my family yesterday! Chilled soba noodles with a ginger tahini dressing, steamed asparagus and spinach and some hard boiled eggs on the side.
The recipe for the noodles can be found here - http://www.whatscookinggoodlooking.com/whats-cooking-good-looking/2013/3/5/soba-noodles-ginger-tahini-with-crispy-kale-shallots-romaine.html
Substituted vinegar for the lemon juice in the recipe. I can only say that tahini is one of the best things in the world.

|Involuntary Resettlement
|Indigenous Peoples
|Environmental Aspects
Because the Investment Program deals with only retrofits of existing facilities at consumer sites, the potential environmental impacts are limited to disposal of the replaced electrical and mechanical equipment and appliances. Disposal will comply fully with GPG regulations to minimize any potential impacts. In accordance with ADB's Environment Policy (2002) and Environmental Assessment Guidelines (2003), the first tranche of the Investment Program is classified as FI as all the subprojects have insignificant environmental impacts.
|Involuntary Resettlement
By including only retrofits of existing electricity consuming facilities, the Investment Program will not involve any land acquisition or resettlement. Therefore, no land acquisition or resettlement plan is needed. Negative social impacts resulting from worker layoffs are unlikely. The improvement in energy security and environmental quality under the Investment Program will benefit the poor more than the general population, as the poor are generally more vulnerable under adverse circumstances. The Investment Program will create a number of jobs in the energy efficiency service sector. In addition, it will reduce coal consumption, free up resources, and lower the risks associated with coal mining and transportation.
|Indigenous Peoples
Not applicable.
|During Project Design
Interviews and site visits have been held with a number of large electricity end-users and middle users (e.g. energy service companies and high efficiency equipment manufacturers) on the development of EPP. The NDRC, MOF, and several provincial government departments (Economic and Trade Commission, Development and Reform Commission, Finance Bureau, State Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and Energy Conservation and Monitoring Center) have been consulted about the IP.
|During Project Implementation
Participatory workshops with stakeholders and key Guangdong government departments will be held during project implementation to obtain feedback for refinement of IP design and implementation.
|Since 2000, the PRC's electricity use has been rapidly increasing at annual growth rate of over 13%. By 2004, serious power shortages had become persistent, and more than half of the provinces in the country had to curtail power supplies during the peak periods in summer. PRC added 231 GW of new power generation capacity in 3 years (2004 - 2006). Furthermore, approximately 80% of the electricity is produced by coal-fired power plants, generating substantial amounts of air pollutants and greenhouse gases. More than half of the cities in the country fail to meet the national ambient air quality standards. According to preliminary estimates made by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, the PRC emitted 6.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide in 2006, exceeding the United States as the world's largest producer of carbon dioxide emissions. The GDP of Guangdong in 2005 was CNY2.24 trillion ($280 billion) which was more than 12% of PRC's GDP and the highest among the provinces and municipalities. The annual electricity consumption (267 TWh in 2005) has been rapidly growing at nearly 15% since 2000. Since 2001, Guangdong has suffered severe power shortages. The power shortage was about 5,000 MW in the summer of 2006. Guangdong also has significant acid rain problems: in 2005, acid rain frequency was about 55%, and 18 cities covering about 85% of the areas in the province, experienced acid rain. Since 2000, most of Guangdong's large cities have an increase in the number of days a year when the ambient air quality fails to meet the national air quality standards. The power shortage and environmental problems, if not resolved quickly, would hinder the economic growth of the province. To address the power shortage and environmental problems, both the PRC and Guangdong Provincial Governments have given the highest priority to energy efficiency. Controlling the demand side of energy will offset the need to increase supply due to increasing economic output. Based on the analysis of the ADTA part B consultants, the cumulative annual electricity savings that could be realized after 10 years of retrofitting program in Guangdong is 41.2 TWh. During the period 1998 - 2000, the Guangdong Energy Conservation Center, a provincial government agency, implemented the Electricity Conservation Fund, assisting enterprises to improve energy efficiency; it was able to achieve an energy savings of about 7.9 TWh/year, and was closed in 2006. The energy saved by installing energy efficient equipment, in the aggregate, will reduce the need for building and burning fuel in a conventional power plant; thus the aggregation of efficient equipment is being referred to as an EPP. This IP addresses one part of demand side management (DSM), i.e., the retrofitting of existing equipment with a more energy efficient one. The collective sub-projects will produce an EPP that will help improve environmental quality as it avoids the air emissions, including greenhouse gases, associated with conventional power plants in the PRC. In the PRC's 11th Five-Year Plan, the Government has set an aggressive energy efficiency target for reducing energy consumption relative to economic growth by 20% between 2006 and 2010. Guangdong, being a relatively energy efficient province, has a target of improving energy efficiency by 16% between 2006 and 2010. The Guangdong Provincial Government (GPG) has made this EPP investment program one of its top 10 programs in the province. GPG recognizes that the benefit from energy efficiency is a public good, but cost of implementation is high, hence it proposes to extend support to catalyze adoption of energy efficiency measures by the energy consumers. It proposes to establish a new Guangdong Energy Efficiency Fund that will promote implementation of energy efficiency sub-projects in various ways, such as, provide incentive for energy savings based on retrofitting with more efficient equipment, validation and verification of energy savings, counter-guarantee for sub-loan repayment, subsidized project management cost, and market EPP, etc. It expects this fund to be financed from various sources, such as budget allocations, multi-lateral donors, Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) revenue, etc.

Consultants were recruited according to ADB's Guidelines on the Use of Consultants.
All procurement to be financed will be carried out in accordance with ADB's Procurement Guidelines for loans to financial intermediaries. The sub-borrowers (both public and private sector companies) will undertake procurement of their respective packages in accordance with established commercial practices, acceptable to ADB. The IP is designed to result in economic efficiency because the sub-borrowers will only participate as EPP contributors when the payback period of the investment is shorter than the sub-loan repayment period (and the life of the equipment installed). The EPP PMO will closely supervise the implementation to ascertain that the agreed energy efficiency sub-project is implemented and estimated energy savings are realized.

Back in the swing of things after the bye. Five big questions about the huge showdown with the Bears.
1. All week it's been Cutler Cutler Cutler but is Matt Forte the guy we should really be talking about?
I know it's been a few weeks since the debacles against Tampa Bay and Seattle, but that's no excuse to totally forget about those games and what they told us about the Vikings' defense. The Lions game was something of a rebound game for the Vikings' defense but let's not forget who was running the ball. Mikel Leshoure may be a serviceable back but no one is mistaking him for Marshawn Lynch. Thanks to match-ups, the Vikings got a one week reprieve from their run defense struggles. Now they face a Bears team with a re-shuffled offensive line and a QB coming off a concussion. What do you think their approach is going to be? If Mike Tice is smart – ha ha – he will hand the ball off to Matt Forte a whole lot. That of course has not necessarily been the Bears' habit this year. Forte's had a couple games over 20 carries but he's also had some games way under that. They haven't been feeding him consistently is what I'm saying. If they have any sense, they'll reverse that trend at least for this week. I'm sure Tice watched the tape of what Tampa and Seattle did. Forte is certainly capable of putting up a huge performance if you give him the chance. So while we're all focused on Jay Cutler and the offensive line shuffle, let's not forget about Forte. He may end up being the key to this whole thing.
2. Is Christian Ponder about to walk into a meat grinder?
The argument can be made that this is Christian Ponder's biggest game as a Viking. And not just because they're still in playoff contention. It's big for him because of who he is facing and the circumstances around the match-up. He's going into Soldier Field to face the best defense in the league. And not just the best defense but the best ball-hawking defense. And we know the struggles Ponder has had at times with ball security. I need not mention that he is entering this game with his best receiver likely on the shelf. Of course he has Adrian Peterson on his side and that helps. But somewhere along the line Ponder is going to have to make a play or two if the Vikings want to win this. And when those moments arise he needs to deliver. Not to the other team either. This is a stern test for Ponder, one that will tell us a whole lot about what the kid is made of. If he can go down there and win this game, that's a big feather in his cap. That will go a long way toward making me believe he can be the guy.
3. Why are we assuming the Vikings' defensive line is just going to eat up the Bears' offensive line?
It's supposed to be a foregone conclusion that the Vikings will have 10 sacks against the Bears on Sunday. It's even been suggested that the Bears should sit down Jay Cutler to protect him from the mauling that is about to go down. This "Vikings Kill Bears Offensive Line" scenario leaves out one pertinent detail: The Vikings' defensive line has not been consistently good this year. In fact it has arguably been terrible against the run. But we're not talking about the run, we're talking about the pass rush. Even in that area, this front four has been up-and-down. At times, yes, it has looked like a dominating unit. But there have been a lot of times where we've wondered what happened to that vaunted pass rush. Call me skeptical but I'm just not convinced this is the huge mismatch everyone thinks. I think the Bears offensive line, reshuffled as it is, will hold its own against the Vikings. This will come down to whether the Vikes can make a big play in a big situation, be that a sack or a batted pass or an interception or a forced fumble. Games like this always come down to those plays. Also, what happens if the Bears crank up Matt Forte? He seems like the perfect player to exploit the Vikings' aggressive downhill defensive approach. We'll see.
4. Is Adrian Peterson about to do something monumental?
On the surface this looks like an epic AD performance in the making. Well-rested coming off the bye. Bears struggling a little in run defense. Vikings trying to minimize the pressure on Ponder by cranking up the run game. If Peterson runs for 120 it will be a disappointment. That's what it feels like right now. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. Recent games notwithstanding, the Bears still have a great defense. And they've seen Peterson lots of times before and know exactly how to approach him. And the Vikings still have to throw the ball enough to keep the Bears honest. And what if the Bears jump on top by 14? The Vikings won't be able to just run the ball down their throats then. We all expect Peterson to do something epic but a solid game is what we should be asking for. A solid well-rounded mistake-free offensive performance with Peterson doing his part. 300 and 4 TDs would be nice too but let's not get silly.
5. Why do I have a funny feeling this game will come down to a kicker making a big late field goal?
This is a battle of clutch kickers. Blair Walsh vs. Robbie Gould. Batten down the hatches when these two lock horns. I close my eyes and I see someone kicking a ball through a fierce Soldier Field wind with 10 seconds left in the game. And it's good! I don't know if it's Robbie Gould or Blair Walsh. Darn this foggy crystal ball.

What is the difference between
Float and
Double in .NET?
When would someone use one of these?
What is the difference between
When would someone use one of these?
The binary number and the location of the binary point are both encoded within the value.
Again, the number and the location of the decimal point are both encoded within the value – that's what makes
The important thing to note is that humans are used to representing non-integers in a decimal form, and expect exact results in decimal representations; not all decimal numbers are exactly representable in binary floating point – 0.1, for example – so if you use a binary floating point value you'll actually get an approximation to 0.1. You'll still get approximations when using a floating decimal point as well – the result of dividing 1 by 3 can't be exactly represented, for example.
As for what to use when:
Precision is the main difference.
Float - 7 digits (32 bit)
Double-15-16 digits (64 bit)
Decimal -28-29 significant digits (128 bit)
Decimals have much higher precision and are usually used within financial applications that require a high degree of accuracy. Decimals are much slower (up to 20X times in some tests) than a double/float.
Decimals and Floats/Doubles cannot be compared without a cast whereas Floats and Doubles can. Decimals also allow the encoding or trailing zeros.
The Decimal structure is strictly geared to financial calculations requiring accuracy, which are relatively intolerant of rounding. Decimals are not adequate for scientific applications, however, for several reasons:
If you need better accuracy, use double instead of float. In modern CPUs both data types have almost the same performance. The only benifit of using float is they take up less space. Practically matters only if you have got many of them.
I found this is interesting. What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic
for more information you can go to source of this picture:
Integers, as was mentioned, are whole numbers. They can't store the point something, like .7, .42, and .007. If you need to store numbers that are not whole numbers, you need a different type of variable. You can use the double type, or the float type. You set these types of variables up in exactly the same way: instead of using the word int, you type double, or float. Like this:
(Float is short for "floating point", and just means a number with a point something on the end.)
The difference between the two is in the size of the numbers that they can hold. For float, you can have up to 7 digits in your number. For doubles, you can have up to 16 digits. To be more precise, here's the official size:
float: 1.5 × 10-45 to 3.4 × 1038 double: 5.0 × 10-324 to 1.7 × 10308
Float is a 32-bit number and double is a 64-bit number.
Double click your new button to get at the code. Add the following three lines to your button code:
Halt your program and return to the coding window. Change this line:
Run your programme and click your double button. The message box correctly displays the number. Add another number on the end, though, and C# will again round up or down. The moral is, if you want accuracy, careful of rounding!
This has been an interesting thread of me, as today, we've just had a nasty little bug, concerning "decimal" having less precision than a "float".
In our C# code, we are reading numeric values from an Excel spreadsheet, converting them into a decimal, then sending this decimal back to a Service, to save into a SQL Server database.
Now, for almost all of our Excel values, this worked beautifully. But for some, very small Excel values, using "decimal.TryParse" lost the value completely. One such example:
The solution, bizarrely, was to convert the Excel values into a double first, and then into a decimal.
Even though double has less precision than a decimal, this actually ensured small numbers would still be recognised. For some reason, "double.TryParse" was actually able to retrieve such small numbers, whereas "decimal.TryParse" would set them to zero.
Odd. Very odd.
float ~ ±1.5 x 10-45 to ±3.4 x 1038 --------7 figures
For applications such as games and embedded systems where memory and performance are both critical, float is usually the numeric type of choice as it is faster and half the size of a double. Integers used to be the weapon of choice, but floating point performance has overtaken integer in modern processors. Decimal is right out!
Most people think the difference between formats is simply about precision, and to a great degree that is important, but there's also something very important that is harder to grasp.
All floating point (and fixed point, which I won't go into) numbers (ex.
The opposite is not true. These fall into two categories,
Regardless, neither of these types of numbers can be be accurately represented in floating (or fixed) point number formats. Examples are
Humans work with numbers in base-10, which is the definition of decimal. Decca being
Computers work in base-2, or binary. And the important thing to remember is that computers do math most efficiently in base-2. Often, numbers are also stored in base-2 representation. Because computers can only work with finite data, there are practical limits to the size of the numbers you can work with in standard numeric formats. Any numbers which are larger (or smaller or requires more precision) than what is defined by the limits of the storage format are rounded. Also, by definition, a computer can only accurately work with rational and non-infinite numbers because it has to have the entire number in memory to work on it. (it's possible to write a program that can calculate numbers without them being fully in memory, but that's not how the standard numeric formats work).
Now, the problem is that there is an inherent
Consider that in base-10,
Ok, so that leads us to the inverse conclusion that finite numbers in decimal might be infinitely repeating numbers in binary. And this is in fact true as well.
This results in:
Which when rounded back to decimal is actually something like
This is why trying to store
Now, the difference between these binary floating point types and the
So what this boils down to.. the difference between float or double and decimal is:
This inherent impedance mismatch is exacerbated by the conversion back to decimal for use by humans. It's like when you translate something from English to Japanese, then back to English. Something gets lost in the translation quite often.
With the
Beyond this "infinite/non-infinite" impedance mismatch, then you simply have the precision of each format, and calculations will be rounded beyond that precision.
Also, float and double are faster than decimal, by about an order of magnitude based on the benchmark here:
The Decimal, Double, and Float variable types are different in the way that they store the values. Precision is the main difference where float is a single precision (32 bit) floating point data type, double is a double precision (64 bit) floating point data type and decimal is a 128-bit floating point data type.
Float - 32 bit (7 digits)
Double - 64 bit (15-16 digits)
Decimal - 128 bit (28-29 significant digits)

i thought you were korean :O your korean is amazing. do you live in korea by any chance..? and what's your background?
Sorry? lol
I never really hide my nationally intentionally, it's just that over years I've learned people do not really care where you come from, so I don't feel a need to emphasize it. I don't know why, but for the most part of my 2PM-fandom life, people on Twitter have thought I'm Thai, and people on tumblr considered me Korean. That is odd.
Thank you for the compliment, but my Korean is very far from being what I'd like it to be T.T I'd love to learn more, but the sad thing is - the older you get, the less time you have to do the things you want (what a paradox).
I lived in Korea twice for short periods of time. First in 2008 for 4 months, and then in 2011-2012 for a year. Both as an exchange student. I guess it's the best option for someone like me to stay in Korea, because even if I wanted to teach English officially, I would not be eligible because I'm not a native English speaker.
My background as in where I come from? I'm from the dark green blob below:
I am Lithuanian, and I'm from Lithuania. Which is in Northern Europe. We're one of those small and random nations that speak their own language no else speaks (or needs), and like weeds just don't die out despite a very small number of population lol.
Hello world @.@b
(pic taken by Ref on 2010 12 31 in her home-town)
I would do unbelievable things for this right now. It's past midnight, and I want something high in calories and totally bad for health, and something that tastes like home (although my mom actually never makes this lol). But I used to eat this quite often at my grandma's. That counts too.
He's really nice guy and this would be great for him to be at least one of the winners! Please,support him^^
like that video in youtube if it's ok with you^^Thanks~ [sorry for re-post, it's just really important for him]
This suddenly appeared on my dash and I was like HUH?! This is my friend's younger brother XD He's actually a big fan of SNSD as far as I remember, and yes, if you have time, please support him. I don't usually do this, but this boy deserves to win. How many North European male kpop fans do you know that are out in the open anyways? xD
Refan is torturing me with this. YOU EVIL YOU KNOW THERE'S NO SUCH THING IN KOREA OMG!!! T___T
Happy Easter! ^.^
Leaving a bit of traditional Lithuanian Easter eggs here and off to sulk in my little Korean corner…
Lithuanian joke that lies in the fact that "peel off" in jargon means "get wasted", so this innocent Christmas add from juice company says "Don't peel off too much" and has a very ordinary looking peeled off tangerine (orange?) and all, but we all know what it refers too.
I love Lithuanian language.
Merry Christmas.

The Department of Public Administration (PA)
The Department of Public Administration (PA) is responsible for research and education in the areas of Public Administration, European Studies and Public Management and Policy. It approaches these issues from a multilevel perspective with a focus of the relationship between sub-national, national, European and global levels of governance. PA is a multidisciplinary group of researchers, combining economic, legal, political and sociological perspectives in a strong methodological setting.
Research is mainly embedded in the multi-disciplinary research program Innovation of Governance of the Institute for Innovation and Governance Studies - IGS, which focuses mainly on changes in the relationships between citizens and their government at various levels (local, regional, EU and global) with specific attention for the emergence of multilevel governance, from the viewpoints of legitimacy and effectiveness.
Two central themes, Democracy and European Governance and Integration, are covered by two IGS Centres of Expertise: the Centre for the Study of Democracy and the Centre for European Studies.
The Department is composed of the following disciplinary groups:

New article by D. Lettinga and S. Saharso. Outsiders Within: Framing and Regulation of Headscarves in France, Germany and The Netherlands
While women in Europe who wear the Islamic headscarf are generally seen as outsiders who do not belong to the nation, some countries are more tolerant towards the wearing of headscarves than others. France, Germany and the Netherlands have developed different policies regarding veiling. In this paper we describe how headscarves became regulated in each of these countries and discuss the ways in which French, Dutch and German politicians have deliberated the issue. The paper is based on a content analysis of parliamentary debates on veiling in France (1989–2007), Germany (1997–2007) and the Netherlands (1985–2007). Our aim is to discuss what these national political debates reveal about the way in which the social inclusion of Islamic women in (or rather exclusion from) the nation is perceived in these three countries. Our claim is that veiling arouses opposition because it challenges national self-understandings. Yet, because nations have different histories of nation building, these self-understandings are challenged in various ways and hence, governments have responded to headscarves with diverse regulation. While we did find national differences, we also discovered that the political debates in the three countries are converging over time. The trend is towards increasingly gendered debates and more restrictive headscarf policies. This, we hypothesize, is explained by international polarization around Islam and the strength of the populist anti-immigrant parties across Europe. ... read more

Boat trips
Swim with the sea-life, or catch it for dinner
What we say:
The most popular option is a full day of either snorkelling or diving -- expect to pay around $17 for snorkelling, $30 and up for diving.
Other tours will take you on a circle around the island to a few off-the-track beaches, to the deserted islands to the south, or on a night time squid hunt.
The last option seems to be particularly popular -- once you've caught a squid, the onboard chefs will prepare it in several different ways.
Most guesthouses have brochures from a few different companies, and can arrange the tours for you.

text: Earthy work from Don Crawford – a very unique artist who works in a mix of soul and folk modes – a bit like Terry Callier at points, but with some more unusual touches as well! This album's got a pretty full set of arrangements, which makes for more of a Callier-like quality than some of Don's other records – but even so, the music's more like the straighter 60s folk of Callier than some of the soaring soul sounds of his Cadet years in the early 70s. Crawford's got a deeply soulful voice that rings out beautifully in this setting – and makes the whole sound of the album come through beautifully. Titles include "Fire Island Saturday", "Small Brown Baby", "Silent Scream", "Benediction", and "I Too Wanted Peace". (Cover has a cutout notch.) © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Just to try and make you feel a little better, I don't like Nirvana but do like Dr Who Hello Billie Piper... 8)
I like Nirvana but not really Dr Who (well, not until the last series, anyway)
We're all a bunch of weirdos in our own right....
If we were all the same life would be so boring, think "Equilibrium" film... :P
I dont like Nirvana or Dr Who (never been the same since tom baker left)
Well I have just been told that I cannot wear any heavy metal band t-shirts during the holidays as some people may find them offensive. Also my new beard makes me look evil and would I consider shaving it off.
Well I guess I can't wear my geekish SQL query T-shirt either then :| But a beard? That's just stupid. (Not beards, the reason.. )
@richard you get bonus points for being an actual 'beardy' techy.
i think mighty.grey.eagle is daring me to bring in my more scary metal band t-shirts next week, i have a SOAD t-shirt somewhre that i bought purely because it looks hideous. I think the favourite Dr Who thing gives away you age, the last time i watched it Syvester McCoy was being chased by a guy wrapped in tin-foil.
Anyway I'm sure the balance will be restored when Geoff arrives in his 'Unix terrorism' t-shirt.
Aha ... another O'Really fan ...
http://www.bofhcam.org/co-larters/index.html for those interested ... available to buy via The Register.
I've got a couple of Cradle of Filth shirts on order from the states at the moment.
I dont think they can say that so long as you keep it tidy.. Can they?
Well to add to the t-shirts the best one I got thats not suitable for school use is one i picked up in Bali earlier this year the famous
Doctor Who Sucks and Nirvana are crap.
CS Rox however.
Hmm with cradle of filth tshirts you may have to be a little careful
they have a habbit of upsetting people.
To all those that don't like Dr Who - your're all wrong - you just are! :P
Its brilliant, but I do think the first series was better with Christopher Ecclestone - he was more edgy and just seemed more 'real' (if you can apply that term to sci-fi) :?: David Tennent feels more like a pantomine Dr.
Have never got into Star Wars, Star Trek was okay but I wasn't a big fan.

In addition to the re-signing of Jason Demers, San Jose Sharks general manager Doug Wilson also announced the re-signing of restricted free agent Taylor Doherty to a one-year contract.
Doherty spend his time in the American Hockey League during the 2013-14 campaign with the Sharks affiliate in Worcester. He recorded 15 points, including four goals and 11 assists. He also racked up 111 penalty minutes while playing in 69 games.
He has a total of 175 career AHL games with a total of five points and 26 assists. He has a total of 254 penalty minutes.
Doherty likes to play physically and isn't afraid to head to the penalty box as is obvious from the numbers above. After the signing of John Scott, one has to wonder if the Sharks are moving in a more physical direction in addition to focusing on youth.
