Book cheap Mallorca island hotels
Hotels in Majorca
Duva Aparthotel Convention Centre and Spa in Majorca, Spain, is a great place for mixing business and pleasure. Visitors can relax in the spa, stay in an apartment or hotel room, and use the extensive convention facilities on the premises. Alternatively, the Victorian Convention Centre is within walking distance of some of the best hotels in Majorca, and can support up to 400 guests.
Majorca has a rich food culture complete with Michelin-starred restaurants. Visitors can stop for paella on the beach at the Lua, try all organic food at the Finca Es Serral, or go for a Mediterranean menu at Simply Fosh. Some of Majorca's hotels, such as the Zarando Za Torre, have their own Michelin-starred restaurants. The locals, however, are frequently found at the La Boveda and the Bar Nou.
Shoppers in search of designer goods and trinkets can search the mall in Centro Commercial Porto Pi in Palma, but the real gems of Majorca lie in the small shops and boutiques. Buyers can choose from glass artwork, handmade sculptures, handcrafted jewellery and more.
Major Points of Interest
Most Majorcan hotels feature spas and swimming pools, and these are almost always a must at any time of the year. Majorca is also famous for its scenic views and vineyards, of which the best is the Bodegas Santa Cantarina. Another unmissable location is Capdepera, a scenic fourteenth-century castle built on a hill.
The RCD Mallorca is the oldest football club in Majorca, although it is not an international club. When in need of exercise or entertainment, visitors can take part in numerous sporting activities on the island including horseback riding, hot air ballooning and cycling.

Was Britain the large island of Atlantis ?
Posted on Wednesday, 15 May, 2013 |
10 comments
Mel Nicholls
In this article the case will be made for Britain being the large island in Plato's story of Atlantis. Some time ago I became interested in seeing how well Plato's story of Atlantis could be made to fit with the megalithic culture of Western Europe. On the face of it Plato's assertion that Atlantis had been a large island in the Atlantic that was in front of the Straits of Gibraltar seemed so patently wrong that I was inclined at first to give up on the enterprise. But I had always been intrigued by the possibility that Britain in the megalithic period may have had something to do with the story. Silbury Hill in England, the largest man made mound in Europe that is located only a mile from Avebury henge, was built at approximately the same time as the arrival of the Bell Beaker people around 2400 BC. It was clearly of great spiritual significance to them. The Bell Beaker people seemed to have formed a powerful dynasty in southern England as attested by burials containing elite grave goods. It appears that they integrated within the existing late Neolithic community already living within southern Britain relatively peacefully. Now if you are familiar with Plato's story you will remember it relates how Poseidon the god of the sea fell in love with a mortal woman on a large island in the Atlantic Ocean. Her father and mother lived in a small mountain that according to some translations of Plato's dialogue Critias was situated at the center of the island. Poseidon encircled the small mountain with three concentric rings of water turning it into a small island. They had a large family, of ten sons, all of them twins. Poseidon bequeathed to them various parts of the island and hence began the powerful empire of Atlantis. So there are some striking similarities with Britain in the period that the Bell Beaker culture became prevalent in Western Europe: A large island in the Atlantic, a sacred hill or small mountain, the forming of a powerful dynasty.
Plato's story also discusses a magnificent city near the coast that had concentric rings of sea and land, and clearly we are meant to infer that this is the same place as the small sacred mountain. This is curious because the small mountain couldn't be both at the center of the large island and near the coast. Is this ambiguity a hint that they may not have been at the same location?
Now there just isn't any evidence that there ever was a large island in front of the Straits of Gibraltar. So this is a huge error in Plato's story. There is apparently another very significant error. The events in the story are claimed to have taken place nine thousand years before Plato's time. This would place the events that Plato describes shortly after the last ice age. To believe this you would not only have to postulate the existence of a very ancient Atlantean civilization with bronze age technology, but also the existence of far older Egyptian and Greek civilizations than are currently recognized by mainstream archaeology.
That Plato placed the large island in front of the Straits of Gibraltar does suggest, that there was at least an important power base nearby. Indeed, many have suggested that Atlantis was in southwest Spain. A city in this area would be ideally located to control trade between the Atlantic and Mediterranean, as well as facilitate the transport of exotic goods from North Africa. Moreover, this area has been subjected to high energy events in the past, such as tsunamis, that could have resulted in the destruction of this city. The problem with simply locating Atlantis in southwest Spain is that there is no large island, and the existence of a large island in the Atlantic is a fundamental aspect of Plato's story. I propose a solution to this problem, but it does mean accepting that there must be yet another very significant error in Plato's story. That solution is that the magnificent city surrounded by concentric rings of sea and land was not actually located on the large island.
Let us just assume then that there are these three errors occurring in the story without for the moment considering why they might have arisen. Then we can postulate that the port city may have existed somewhere near the Straits of Gibraltar in the megalithic period, quite possibly in southwest Spain. Now we look for a big island in the Atlantic that doesn't have to be near the Straits of Gibraltar, but it would be nice if there was at least some possibility of a connection with Iberia. Britain is an obvious choice. In the time period when the Bell Beaker culture spread throughout Europe there was quite probably a link with Iberia since that is where the culture appears to have originated. Moreover, as discussed in the first paragraph of this article there was a sacred hill in Britain and evidence for the beginning of a powerful dynasty, which are both important elements of Plato's story.
Something else happens when we assume a separation between the magnificent seaport and the large island. The possibility emerges that the take over of Britain by the Bell Beaker people took place when someone from the nascent city of Atlantis, traveled to Britain. This somebody would obviously have been of high rank. Possibly he was the adventurous son of the king of the city and went on an expedition to open up trade relations with this mysterious island far to the north. Suppose that while there he fell in love and married a chieftain's daughter in southern England. He became a powerful king had many sons, and a surprising number of them were twins. He arranged marriages for his sons with chieftain's daughters throughout the island, thereby creating a powerful dynasty. He bequeathed the center of the island to his first son and sent his second born son back to the nascent city of Atlantis in southwest Spain to inherit the rulership in his stead. When this powerful king died he was deified and became known as the sea god since he came to the island from across the sea. So if we separate the seaport from the large island we plausibly come up with an explanation for the sea god in Plato's story. Moreover, we do not have to consider the thorny question of how a very large island was destroyed and sank beneath the sea, but only a small one, the seaport that was probably in southwest Spain.
The theory raises many questions: Why does Plato's story contain such large errors? Could Silbury Hill have actually had three concentric rings of water around it at some stage? Where does Stonehenge fit into this? It was built around the same time and it clearly had something to do with a sun deity. Why would the Atlanteans whose major deity was the sea god build their most impressive temple to the sun god? When did the war with the Athenians take place? When was the high energy event that destroyed the magnificent seaport? These questions are addressed in my recent kindle ebook 'Children of the sea god'. It makes the case that Plato's account of Atlantis is a muddled one that is an amalgamation of two separate locations. The description of the large island of Atlantis is based mainly on Britain, whereas the description of the magnificent seaport is based mainly on a settlement in southwest Spain. But there is some mixing up between them. It also postulates that there may be a profound connection with the building of Stonehenge.

any idea why Sequoia district is not included in the list of San Mateo county districts with active bonds & committees?
the Grand Jury report lists on 9 districts San Mateo Union High School District Millbrae Elementary School District Las Lomitas Elementary School District La Honda-Pescadero Unified School District Jefferson Union High School District Hillsborough City Elementary School District Burlingame Elementary School District Belmont-Redwood Shores School District San Mateo County Community College District
and later states as Finding 1 that "All SMCo School Districts that have current Proposition 39 voter approved bonds have established COCs and bylaws for oversight committees as required by Proposition 39." However the Sequoia website lists more than $55M left to spend Web Link as of last August it states "By the end of June, $39.5 million of the initial sale of the Measure J bond was still on hand and, in July, another $40 million was received from a second issuance of the bond. A final bond issuance of $55 million is tentatively planned for 2015."
Did the grand jury miss something?

In 2013, Earth Hour went digital in Colombia and broke its own records of participation. More than 20 million users were reached on social media with the hashtag #unahorapara.
Earth Hour is a nationwide event encouraging more and more citizens, institutions and companies to join the movement every year. It has been hugely covered by Colombian media, which plays a key role in spreading the Earth Hour message.
Started in 2008 with 114 companies and organizations, the campaign has grown steadily over the course of 6 years. Colombian cities celebrate Earth Hour by switching lights-off for their main landmarks and holding public events.

Joplin, Missouri...
I made this sweet jumper for my niece Lillian, although I haven't yet given it to her; it's been far too cold. But the 100% cotton voile will be perfect for spring-time. From start to finish the jumper was done in less than 1 hour. Also, if you are judicious with your use of fabric, 1/2 yard each of lining and shell fabric is more than enough. I could yet make another jumper of what I have left(and then some). My only alteration was to lengthen the lining instead of the shell; I preferred the peek-a-boo petticoat feeling of seeing the off-white below the blue.
1/2 yard each of blue and off-white cotton voile with eyelit embroidery.

Tottenham transfer news: Spurs eye Fischer swoop after scouting Ajax winger last season
Published: 08 August 2014
Updated: 12:45, 08 August 2014
Tottenham are one of a number of clubs following the progress of Ajax winger Viktor Fischer after watching him last season.
The Dane is one of the most promising players at the Dutch club and, although his contract runs until June 2017, he is expected to be one of the next high-profile departures.
Spurs scouts watched Fischer, 20, in nearly every game in which he was involved during the final three months of the 2013-14 campaign. While a bid during this window is possible, it is thought Fischer is one of the club's longer-term options.
Tottenham and Ajax have been in regular contact during recent seasons. Spurs signed Jan Vertonghen in 2012 and returned last summer to sign Fischer's compatriot, Christian Eriksen. Both players adapted well to life at White Hart Lane and Vertonghen has been offered an extension to his contract.
Relations between the clubs became a little tense towards the end of last season, when Ajax boss Frank de Boer revealed he had been approached by Spurs about succeeding Tim Sherwood but they have not soured to the extent that the clubs cannot do business.

Reviving Coleus' Popularity
Tropical coleus is cultivated for its colorful foliage. Here are a few striking varieties.
By: Maureen Gilmer
Your grandmother probably grew it as a houseplant. If you were part of the 1970s water bottle terrarium crowd, you probably grew it, too. Since then coleus has laid low and split the scene altogether in the 1980s, and then in the late 1990s it exploded onto the garden world in a fabulous array of new exciting foliage colors.
Coleus is a genus of herbaceous tropical plants with most of our cultivated species originating in Southeast Asia, Java and Malaysia. It falls into the mint family along with nettles and other familiar herbs. It is technically perennial, but only in frost-free climates. Everywhere else it should be considered an annual grown for its foliage, not flowers.
These plants first became popular in Victorian times when breeding began with Coleus blumei, a species named after a Dutch authority on plants of Java, Karl Blume. This species crossed with Coleus pumilus has yielded more than 200 named hybrids. This makes the whole group incredibly complex to identify.
To simplify matters, the Simply Beautiful line of bedding plants has selected 18 top-notch varieties. These have been tested under rigorous conditions for their suitability as garden plants rather than houseplants. What's more exciting are their big burly landscape coleus that will make over a dull garden in just a few weeks. Colors range from bright shocking pink to rusty gold and virtually every shade in between. They are satisfying from day one because it's not flowers we want, but the leaves that look so great.
From this collection, there are a few particularly striking varieties. Those with a lot of irregular color and the paint-splatter look tend to produce a less dramatic presence on a larger scale application. They may be fascinating up close as a house or patio plant, but in the garden they tend to get lost. But a few varieties with strong clear color patters are the best outdoor garden attention getters.
Rustic Orange is incredibly bright, combining dark salmon-orange with high contrast lime green. This one brings huge color into darker foliage situations because it is a bigger showy plant to 3 feet tall. Wild lime bears a powerful lemon yellow leaf with thick, lime green ruffled margins. It makes a powerful contrast to darker leaf garden plants or when used in concert with Red Ruffles.
These coleus are equally happy in sun or shade. However, sun will increase color intensity while shade dulls it. For ideal conditions give them direct morning sun and protect from late afternoon exposure. Coleus come from damp hot tropical climates and they will grow best for you in fertile, well drained, evenly moist soil.
Coleus blooms in middle to late summer with tall spikes of blue flowers like other mints. But flower production slows and even stops foliage development, and foliage is why we grow this plant. To maximize foliage visibility and keep plants growing rapidly in their vegetative phase, nip off flowers the moment buds form on branch tips. Continue to nip flowers all season long to continue foliar performance.
Nitrogen is the chief nutrient that supports leaf and stem growth in plants. That's why we use it so much on lawns. Since coleus are foliage plants, use fertilizers with plenty of nitrogen to support rapid growth all season long. Liquid products such as Miracle Gro are ideal.
Look for Red Ruffles, Rustic Orange and Wild Lime coleus in garden centers and home improvement stores. Purchase them in 6-inch pots and get your garden makeover started with brilliant color without a single flower in sight.

Critter Control recognized the 25-year anniversaries of Mike Dwyer, Vanetta 'Happi' Truan and Danielle Flowers.
TRAVERSE CITY, Mich — Critter Control recognized the 25-year anniversaries of Mike Dwyer, Vanetta 'Happi' Truan and Danielle Flowers.
Mike Dwyer, Critter Control's Chief Networking Officer, originally operated Critter Control of Columbus before joining the corporate team. Happi Truan joined the corporate team in 1986 and is now the company's vice president of marketing and Danielle Flowers was the company's first ever franchisee. Flowers started as a Branch Manager in Cleveland, OH in 1986.
It all began 29 years ago when Detroit metropolitan based chimney sweep Kevin Clark received a call to remove a raccoon from a chimney. The caller said they had phoned all over town to everyone they could think of to help solve their problem, but nobody dealt with marauding wildlife. Seizing the opportunity, Clarks' Critter Control was born. A few years later Critter Control, Inc was incorporated and began franchising the concept. Today, Critter Control is North America's largest wildlife pest control firm, with over 130 offices coast-to-coast.
A new study from Penn Medicine researchers in the Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics demonstrated that bed bugs, like the triatomines, can transmit Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease.
The program enables pest management professionals (PMPs) to evaluate ActiveGuard Mattress Liners in real world applications.
Ronnie Caldwell, president of Innovative Pest Management, Denver, N.C., is one of the stars of the new Bruce Hedrick video 'A Better Man.'
The country has detected its first domestic case of the painful mosquito-borne viral disease chikungunya in the southwest of the country, the state government of Chiapas said on Saturday.
The company's 1st Bi-Annual Thermal Remediation Bed Bug National Conference will be held March 8-10, 2015 in Grapevine, Texas.

There was no sharknado in Poughkeepsie, but in honor of Shark Week, Mix 97's Mark Bolger reports on a "shark sighting" off the Hudson. No, there aren't really sharks this far up the Hudson River, but a fella can dream, can't he?
There has been what seems to be a shark sighting and attack on a seagull in the Hudson. I received a call from
Poughkeepsie will mark this year's 13th anniversary of the September 11th 2001, terrorist attacks by breaking ground for the city's 9/11 memorial park.
Upper Landing Park in Poughkeepsie will house a day of family fun on Saturday, Aug. 9. The Dyson Foundation is sponsoring the free festival from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. to thank the community for its support of the new riverside park's development.
The former "Underwear Factory," a national historic landmark, is going to be renovated as part of a community development project. According to a report in Midhudsonnews.com the $5 million project aims to help revitalize the city.
Today through Sunday it's the 35th annual Greek Festival in Poughkeepsie. The weather will be nice this weekend, but everything is under the big tent! I mean this as a compliment. I think the Greeks invented Line Dancing :)
It all happens on
As of Tuesday June 10th, it's going to cost you.
The world is more connected than ever before. One of the main reasons for that is IBM right here in Poughkeesie. This is the 50th anniversary of the mainframe computer! You couldn't make it through a day without interacting with a mainframe
Gallup has released their annual Well Being Index, ranking America's happiest and least happiest metro areas, and the results for some of us in The Hudson Valley aren't so great.
The Poughkeepsie-Newburgh-Middletown metro area ranked #160 out of the 189 metro areas in the US who were surveyed, making it #29 on the most miserable cities list. Some of the factors included overall health, work environments, and access to basic necessities.
Gallup has noted three major downward trends nationwide
I realize this has been out for a while, but I don't know anything about it. I was searching Youtube to see if anyone had done a local version of the song "Happy" and this popped up. The production on this video has me intrigued about these books with Poughkeepsie in the title. T

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happe...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

If your love for Android (or at least its little green mascot) is so profound that you feel the need to collect every possible piece of memorabilia, then we've got a great deal for you. ThinkGeek has been making official Android plushies for a while now, but they've been consistently sold out on the website. An Amazon retailer is selling them for the low, low price of one buck. If you can spare another $5.99 for shipping, this little guy is all yours.
Hey, you! Yes, you, with the Razer keyboard and the home-built desktop humming like a Sherman tank! Are you so extreme that you want to play your favorite EA shooting games even when you're not playing them?! Do you and your friends constantly argue about the value of the K2D ratio as a measurement of e-sport skillz?! Then you might just be hardcore enough to deserve Battlelog, EA's new social app for Battlefield 3 and Medal of Honor: Warfighter!
Google's Wallet-powered peer-to-peer payment service launched to rival Paypal was announced on May 15th and came with an interesting promotion: waived fees for transfers funded by credit cards. This promotion was recently (possibly today) adjusted quite drastically, and now only payments less than $250 aren't charged fees. Additionally, we now know that the promotional period ends on June 29th.
Left: terms before; Right: current terms
Typically, credit card-funded transfers are charged a fee of 2.9% with a minimum of $0.30, but for a previously undefined "limited time," Google decided to foot the bill in hopes of attracting initial users.
There are a lot of options out there if you're looking for a quality Bluetooth speaker. Most of them have flashy names, like Beats or JAMBOX. But Cambridge Audio, a UK company that doesn't get a lot of press across the pond, has just introduced the Minx Go speaker. It has specifications that should be music to the ears of audiophiles, and a $150 price tag that fits neatly between decidedly low-fi solutions from Logitech and the pricier territory occupied by Bose and Jawbone.
Everyone likely to read this knows that root can unlock a lot of doors for Android modding, and an unlocked bootloader opens even more. But for HTC phones, S-OFF is the ultimate in control, allowing users essentially unlimited access to every piece of code on the device. The Revolutionary dev team has released a new S-OFF method for the HTC One. You may remember these guys from exploits on most of the major HTC phones from 2011 and earlier.
SamMobile published an image this afternoon that really kind of explains itself: this is, purportedly, the Galaxy S4 Zoom. The concept is obviously pretty simple - it's a Samsung smartphone with a big-ass camera mounted on the back. Don't get your hopes too far up on the smartphone aspect, though, as even SamMobile is tempering expectations on the specifications. Allegedly, the S4 Zoom will be packing a 4.3" qHD display, dual-core 1.6GHz processor (likely a Qualcomm chip), 8GB of internal storage (with microSD slot, of course), and Android 4.2.2.
Action Launcher doesn't just tweak the Android home screen paradigm like most other launchers do – it creates new features that change the experience. It was already one of the more interesting launchers in Google Play, but it was lacking some features. Each update fills in the gaps more, and this is a big one.
Among the most notable additions in v1.8 is the option to configure the home screen grid size.
The folks behind the MOGA wireless gamepads for Android announced today that the next-generation MOGA Power Series controllers will be unveiled at E3 later this month. In addition to an updated physical design, MOGA is talking up its new MOGA Boost system. Boost will recharge your phone while you game.
The Power Series will come in two different styles – a compact version for hauling around, and a larger (less portable) one.
The gold release for CyanogenMod 10.1 (Android 4.2) is very, very close, folks. The CyanogenMod team has already gone through four (count 'em, four) release candidates to date, and the fifth has just started popping up on the CyanogenMod download page. RC5 for the Sprint, MetroPCS, Cricket, and AT&T versions of the Galaxy S III are available at the time of writing, as well as the Nexus S, Nexus S 4G, Samsung Captivate, Acer Iconia Tab A700, and the Nook Tablet.
Planning a trip? If you're going to fly JetBlue, your experience will be a little bit better thanks to the new Android app update. Version 2 is live in the Play Store and it includes a few useful changes, among them virtual boarding passes (finally).
The UI update isn't a dramatic shift, but it cleans up a few bits of design around the booking and flight tracking interfaces.
