Beautiful apartment located in the exclusive Patara Prince Resort with use of all facilities. Fully furnished and equipped.
This beautiful apartment is within the luxurious Patara Prince Resort, overlooking the picturesque bay of Kalkan.When the complex was built it attracted architectural interest worldwide - and no wonder! As you enter, you immediately notice the extensive use of the local stone and design sympathetic to the shape of the land sometimes going so far as to build around natural rock features.In addition some design echoes local antiquities, the most ambitious of which is a replica of the first century AD Roman triumphal arch that stands in Patara itself some kilometres down the road to the West. Club Patara is ambitiously styled on a Roman town. Walking through the stone arches to the marble- floored Agora built around a fountain is like stepping back in time, but the strange mix of traditional Turkish, reproduction Roman and openly modern works surprisingly, well and belies Club Pataras actual modernity, giving the place a feel as old as the rocks themselves.But its not only a case of good looks. Club Patara have got the luxury element so perfectly sown up that representatives of the tourist trade flock from all over the world, anxious to see how its done.This was the vision of one of Turkeys top architects, who sought to combine aesthetic value with practicality. The design is attractive, but throughout it makes the most of the hillside setting, providing little nooks of cool shade and spreading platforms on which to toast yourself in the sun.The platforms are scattered along the waters edge, close to where the scheduled water taxi to Kalkan shuttles back and forth. Here also is the watersports center, which includes a diving school.In addition there are facilities for water skiing, banana rides, windsurfing, fishing and sailing. Also close to the jetties - but discreetly away - from the hotels and villas - is the Apollonia night club, where, if you have not exhausted yourself with the days activities, you can dance and drink till the small hours.There are four swimming pools within Club Patara. The indoor Jacuzzi forms part of the fitness center, which also has a gymnasium, sauna, Turkish bath and massage facility.The larger outdoor pool - the Grand Pool - is for the whole family, the circular outdoor pool - Apollonia Pool - with its splendid cascading waterfall feature, is for adults only. The fourth pool situated near the tennis courts and features a skimming water slide. There is also a supervised club for children aged between four and ten years, to help channel that youthful activity which even Mediterranean sun cannot sap. Meanwhile the grown ups get on with some serious peace and quiet.Close to the swimming pools are the main a la carte restaurant and the Patara bar, while around the Agora are the Agora Bar and restaurant.For truly fine Turkish dining, the a la carte restaurant provides a wonderful open air section close to the waters edge beneath a charming thatched roof. Seafood is the barbecue speciality here.If you have a taste for pizza and pasta the Italian restaurant offers an excellent selection. You can dine on the Agora or inside in a air-conditioned comfort.At lunchtimes there is also a poolside barbecue serving delicious charcoal-grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, while in the evening you can enjoy live music in the piano bar close to the adult swimming pool. The Patara Prince is a truly remarkable place, a holiday destination in its own right, more a town than a hotel, a community which gives you the freedom to socialise or to shut yourself away.Around and About KalkanKalkan is a place to fall in love with.A small peaceful Mediterranean resort and fishing town on the beautiful turquoise coast of Turkey, Kalkan has not been touched by mass tourism yet. More sophisticatedthan the usual resort town, Kalkan appeals to travelers looking for more than a "sun and sea" holiday. According to the Sunday Times, Kalkan attracts the kind of visitor who would also enjoy Tuscany or the Dordogne. The Guardian likens the town to "the Italian Riviera minus the poseurs."Because of its great charm, Kalkan has a growing number of perennial visitors who say the town is the only holiday destination they would choose to visit repeatedly. There is simply no other town quite like Kalkan along Turkeys coast. Kalkan curls snuggly around a historic harbour sheltered at the foot of the towering Taurus Mountains. The town overlooks a beautiful bay in which islands seem to magically float upon the shimmering sea. Narrow streets twist down to the harbour, lined with old whitewashed villas with shuttered windows situated alongside small local specialty shops and restaurants in historic buildings. Overhead hang original carved Ottoman Greek timber balconies garlanded with thick masses of brilliantly coloured bougainvillea cascading to the streets below. It isa very special place with a unique atmosphere. Why is Kalkan so special? Not only is Kalkan beautiful, but unlike other Turkish coastal resort towns Kalkans main economy is tourism and therefore its citizens put much pride and effort into the towns historic preservation. Because of this, Kalkan has retained the texture of its history by protecting its distinctive Ottoman Greek architecture (it was once an Ottoman Greek and Turkish fishing village). Very strict building codes keep the town small and architecturally blended with the historic heart of the town known as "Old Kalkan". Besides the famous "Kalkan Style" historic architecture, the many excellent restaurants of Kalkan contribute to the special atmosphere within Kalkan. Good dining has always been the way of life in Kalkan and continues today. In fact, Kalkan is said to have the highest number of restaurants and bars per inhabitant or square meter on the Turkish coast (over 100 of them!). Additionally, Kalkan is especially renowned in Turkey for its numerous roof terrace restaurants and bars which offer a wonderful view of the town, sea and stars. Its also nice to sit at one of the many fine harbour-side restaurants and watch the pleasure boats and fishermen leave early in the morning as you eat your breakfast, or see the fishing boats return with the days catch in the evening.There is lots to do during the day and nightlife is fun, but laid-back. You wont find noisy, wild nightlife here, like in some other coastal resorts.Kalkan has many fine qualities, but without a doubt, it is the people of Kalkan who make the town extra special. The people of Kalkan warmly welcome you, and you may at first be surprised by the universal friendliness within the town. This, along with warm Turkish hospitality is the basis of life here and the people of Kalkan sincerely enjoy getting to know their guests. So dont hesitate to accept one of the many tulip-shaped glasses of çay (tea) you will be offered while you amble along Kalkans winding streets. You wont be hassled while you are a guest of Kalkan - the town is hassle-free and is proud to be so. You will find a mixed population here, consisting of locals, some Istanbul Turks and Turks from other cities who have made Kalkan their home and own small businesses, as well as a small number of well-educated foreigners who have settled in the town. If you feel that Kalkan was not enough, you can always explore the numerous beautiful attractions in the aeria, which are worth to be seen.40 minutes drive away from Kalkan is PATARA BEACH, a beautiful 18 kilometre stretch of sand backed by dunes. Entrance to the beach is through the ruins of the ancient city of Patara, with a triumphal gate, several baths, a theatre and a few temples. After the ruins, at the entrance to the beach near the dolmus dro p-off, are a few basic restaurants to supply you with food, beverages, umbrellas and sun beds, as there is only one restaurant on the beach. The beach is closed for its own protection after sunset as it is one of the few places in the world where endangered Loggerhead turtles come to lay their eggs. It features regularly in brochures as one of the Mediterraneans most beautiful beaches. Not quite so far away is ISAMLAR, a small village set in the Taurus Mountains, a twenty minute drive from Kalkan. The village provides a real insight into life as it has always been in rural Turkey with a day garden, where the men of the village put the world to rights over glasses of tea. There is also a bakery which still uses an old mill stone.If you are feeling especially hot, then the place you should visit is the SAKLIKENT GORGE which delivers a rushing stream of pure limestone-filtered water.The gorge is 18km long and so steep and narrow that the sun does not penetrate, so the water is icy cold, even in the summer. The gorge is approached along a wooden boardwalk above the river and opens out to a series of wooden platforms suspended above the water, where you can buy and eat trout at one of the specialist restaurants. Enjoy the refreshing cool air, before you return to sea level! Please note that if you want to explore the gorge fully, you will need a change of clothing, as guides take visitors up to their waist in water.Although Kalkan has an excellent range of shops and restaurants, it is worth visiting KAS, which is larger than Kalkan, with life revolving around the town square by the harbour. It is worth noting that on the sheer rock mountain wall above the town there are a number of Lycian rock tombs, which are illuminated at night. The local fishermen are also happy to run a water taxi service to take you to a bay, cove or beach along the coast. From Kalkan or Kas you can also take a boat tour of the Sunken city of KEKOVA. A standard boat excursion might start by passing Kekove Island. Along the shore of the island are Byzantine foundations and ruins, partly submerged in the sea - the Sunken City. The boat should stop in a cove, so that you can swim and perhaps explore those ruins that are on the land. Another lovely place to visit is KAPUTAS. It has a small sandy cove and beach nestled at the foot of a striking mountain gorge, so be prepared for manysteps! The water is always a brilliant turquoise blue. Umbrellas can be hired here. Kaputas beach is about 7 km away from Patara Prince Resort and a dolomusfrom Kalkan will take you there in the summer months. A short swim from Kaputas is Mavi Magara or the Blue Cave, named for the colour of the boulders inside.Please be very careful, though, as the currents are strong and there are no lifeguards. It is recommended that swimmers go at least in pairs.Situated between Finike and Kas, Myra is 25 km from Finike and 48 km from Kas. Although it was originally a coastal town, it has retreated from the sea because of the alluvium from the Demre stream. The rock tombs, the theatre and St. Nicholas Church have survived to make it a place worth visiting. Description of the Palm Tree 232 ApartmentPam Tree 232 is an air conditionated apartment, which can accomodate a maximum of 4 people, and it is situated close to the car park, the Tempa mini market , the terrace pool Infinity, the mini club and the tennis courts.

At first glance, a public notice seeking financial assistance to support a movie theater's technical upgrade may seem strange, but think again.
Movie theaters across the country could close if they don't go digital by the end of the year, and buying digital equipment is an expense that many smaller cinemas cannot afford, said Mark Loudin, president of MDL Holiday Cinemas on Baughman's Lane in Frederick.
Traditional 35 mm film has been an industry standard since about 1910, but the movie industry is phasing out the film reels in favor of digital media, which means cinemas need new projection equipment, computers, a sound system and even a different screen, according to The Associated Press. The financial burden is huge for the small theater.
The cost of converting to digital averages about $70,000 per screen, according to the National Association of Theatre Owners, and about 60 percent of the nation's 5,750 theaters have switched to all-digital equipment.
MDL Entertainment Inc. recently bought one digital projector for $65,000, but the business cannot afford a second one, Loudin said.
Loudin posted this letter on the cinema's website, seeking the public's help:--
"Dear Friends of MDL Holiday Cinemas,
We are in need of charity for specific upgrades at the Holiday Cinemas. The theatre is on a low budget and has a major problem that is coming in the near future. The most specific problem is that we need to go digital by the end year of 2013 and if we do not go we will be forced to close as film companies are not using film for their movies any longer. I have purchased one digital projector which was $65,000 but we can not afford a second one. I am asking for the public's help in donating any monies you can to help us go digital and keep Holiday Cinemas up and running. All monies will be specifically deposited into one account and be used ONLY for digital upgrade, once we achieve in getting the digital equipment I will stop all donations as it is only for this purpose.
I would like to thank all of Frederick and surrounding counties that have been part of my family and coming to the Holiday Cinemas and supporting us, we thank you sincerely as we would not be in business if it wasn't for the customer base that we have.
Thanks again,
Mark Loudin, MDL Entertainment, Inc. president"
Since Loudin posted the letter about two weeks ago, the cinema has received about $700 in donations from the public. Social media will also be used to get the word out, and the theater's employees are letting customers know about the problem without pressuring them to donate money, Loudin said.
Many of the larger cinemas don't have to come up with the money to buy the new equipment, Loudin said, because they have arrangements with certain corporations that allow them to get the equipment at virtually no cost.
"It's a serious thing, and it's sad," Loudin said, that the smaller cinemas have to buy the new equipment.
"At the same time, I don't want to pressure people coming to the theater to give anything. If you want to help the theater, you can," he said.
Holiday Cinema is the lowest-priced theater in Frederick County as far as sub-run theaters, Loudin said. Sub-run theaters show movies two or three months after they are released.
Loudin has worked with MDL Holiday Cinemas for more than 21 years, and his family has owned the business for 11 years. Business is good, he said, and the theater has a loyal following. Fortunately for him, Frederick County officials' decision to eliminate the amusement tax will allow him to help pay for the first projector, Loudin said.
"We try to keep fees down as much as possible, but you can only do so much," Loudin said. The cinema makes a little money from the box office, but the theater's main income comes from the concession stand, Loudin said.

text: We noticed a little bit of new season competitiveness last night as London's fashion elite gathered in specially commissioned black cabs to celebrate the launch of Missoni's first UK boutique in Sloane Street. LOVE editor In chief Katie Grand - decked out in straight-from-the-catwalk Dolce & Gabanna and those Louis Vuitton bunny ears - compared LV Spicy heels with fellow devotee Elizabeth Saltzman from Vanity Fair. Meanwhile, model guest Jade Parfitt and Jasmine Guinness posed in matching Missoni S/S '09 dresses, Gemma Arterton got some fashion advice straight from Angela Missoni and shoe designer Charlotte Dellal raced to the rails to get a first look at the most important element of the party - the clothes! Angela's daughter, Margarita Missoni - who was in cheery spirits despite having lost her luggage at Heathrow after flying into London to support her mum - moved the party on to Locanda Locatelli, where the crowd dined on bresaola and risotto. It all got a bit hazy around midnight as guests left buzzing over where they'd be housing their goodie bag gifts: gorgeous Missoni cushions! Check out the best dressed below.

The exceptional concentration in the grapes in 2000 was not only achieved in the old vines, which produce the first wine; in fact, all the plots produced very ripe and concentrated grapes. The fabulous potential of this vintage led us paradoxically to make a strict selection at the blending so that Château Margaux 2000 would have the most perfect expression possible. Naturally, this very rigorous selection was also of direct benefit to Pavillon Rouge, which was made richer by very good wines which did not go into the Château Margaux. At the same time, it was freed of lesser wines which were reserved for the third wine. The 2000 Pavillon Rouge has the complexity and density of a first wine, and it certainly has the ageing potential. It certainly is the reason why it may still be too young to drink; lets wait a few years more, and in the meantime, lets enjoy the 1999, 2001 and 2002 Pavillon Rouge. (December 2008)
Blend: 59% cabernet sauvignon, 4% cabernet franc, 35% merlot and 2% petit verdot. Production: 50% of the harvest. Colour Deep red. Intense. One of the most intense I have seen so far. Nose Clean. Intense. Delicate. Notes of cocoa and ripe fruits. Almost sweet. Palate It is extremely charming and full of tactile gentleness. This wine melts in the mouth like a mousse. The tannic concentration has never been so stong and nevertheless the gentleness has never been so intense. One of the best Pavillons I have ever tasted.
The 2000 Pavillon Rouge, exhibits a medium/dark ruby color with some lightening at the edge, notes of cedar, spice box, black cherries, and currants in very evolved style at full maturity.
The second wine of Château Margaux first appeared in the 19th century and took on its present name, Pavillon Rouge du Château Margaux, in 1908. After vanishing from the scene between the 1930s and the 1970s, its production was started up again as soon as André Mentzelopoulos took over the estate in 1977, and has continued to grow in order to improve the quality of the first wine. For the last few years, a third wine has in turn appeared to enhance the quality of Pavillon Rouge. It is made from wines which were not selected at the blending to go into Château Margaux.

Love the framed vintage swimsuits! Framing clothing or other interesting things makes them special. I look for unique items and cool frames at thrift stores... toss whatever might be in the frame at the time (assuming it's worthless!) and insert something else.
Good luck with the shop! I'll try to post to my blog about it soon!

TEMPE, Ariz. — The Los Angeles Angels renewed the contract of AL Rookie of the Year Mike Trout for $510,000, prompting an angry response from the outfielder's agent.
Craig Landis said his client was disappointed with the decision announced Saturday. The salary is $20,000 above the major league minimum.
— MLB scoreboard: Cactus and Grapefruit leagues in action | Spring standings
"During the process, on behalf of Mike, I asked only that the Angels compensate Mike fairly for his historic 2012 season, given his service time," Landis said in a statement. "In my opinion, this contract falls well short of a 'fair' contract and I have voiced this to the Angels throughout the process. Nonetheless, the renewal of Mike's contract will put an end (to) this discussion."
Trout has 1 year, 70 days of major league service and is likely to be eligible for arbitration after the 2014 season and for free agency after the 2017 World Series. Teams can renew the contracts of unsigned players on their 40-man rosters from March 2-11
Trout said Sunday that he just wants to be in the lineup every day and that his time to make big money will come if he keeps producing the way he did last season, when he was voted AL Rookie of the Year and just missed out on winning the MVP.
WHITLEY: Angels better hope Trout has short memory
"As when he learned he would not be the team's primary center fielder for the upcoming season, Mike will put the disappointment behind him and focus on helping the Angels reach their goal of winning the 2013 World Series," Landis said.
Speedy Peter Bourjos is set to be the Angels' primary center fielder, flanked by Trout in left and 2010 AL MVP Josh Hamilton in right.
Trout had a $482,500 salary last year, when he finished second to the Detroit Tigers' Miguel Cabrera in AL MVP voting. Trout hit .326 with 30 homers and 83 RBIs, and led the majors with 129 runs and 49 steals.
He also earned a $10,000 bonus for winning Rookie of the Year.
The Angels also cut one-year deals with 21 players, including Bourjos and Mark Trumbo.

OPA will host its Annual Professional Astrology Retreat March 20-23, 2014 at Ocean Creek Resort, in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. This retreat is designed for the professional development of beginning through advanced students and astrologers.
Whereas most conferences are focused externally, this experience focuses more on you, the subject, rather than the subject matter. As a consequence, you are led to embark on a personal exploration.
There are two main components to the OPA retreat: the large group experience and the small group experience. The large group experience happens with all of us gathering together each morning to listen to speakers and participate in the same forum. The small group experience happens with participants working together under the supervision of a trained leader, in a pre-assigned group of your choice. You will work with a highly skilled astrology professional and a small group of peers for fifteen hours!
Working intensively with a successful professional astrologer will provide an unmatched mentoring experience from which you will receive countless benefits. The connection with peers in your group adds a highly dynamic potency to the work and will enhance your personal confidence and knowledge. At the end of the retreat not only will you have a firm grasp of the material in your track, you will know more about yourself, your strengths and limitations, than you ever did before.
On Saturday evening (March 22) we will celebrate International Astrology Day with a banquet held at the resort. This add on event ($30 pp - not included in conference registration) will be another opportunity to connect with the OPA family of astrologers. Purchase your banquet ticket here.
We invite you to join us at the next retreat for the time of your life. It promises to be a wonderful experience in the serene setting of Ocean Creek Resort near the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. You will have the opportunity to enrich your life, make new friends and apply new skills to your practice right away!

I was excited to try out the Pizzeria Pronto, as the videos I had seen of it looked pretty amazing. They claim that once the unit is pre-heated you can bake a pizza in about 5 minutes. Putting it together was simple and only took about 10 minutes. It appears to be well constructed and sturdy.
To light the unit simply press in the heat control knob and turn almost to the high mark count to 5 to allow gas to get to the burner and then continue turning the knob until the piezo igniter clicks. Once lit it only takes about 5 minutes for the oven to reach 700 degrees.
Another 5 minutes and it reached over 1,000 degrees. The instructions say to preheat the oven for at least 10 minutes but not more than 15 minutes. While the oven and pizza stone are preheating you have plenty of time to make your pizza.
To make things easier, I picked up some premade pizza dough from my local supermarket. The dough I bought was in batches that would make one of their 16 inch pizzas. I made the sauce using this pizza sauce recipe.
You build the pizza on a heavily dusted pizza peel. Place the flattened dough on a heavily flour dusted the peel, add the sauce and topping and you are ready to slide it into the oven. You only have about 5 minutes to do this or it seems that the dough starts to stick to the peel and trying to shake it loose can rearrange your toppings and cause a mess.
My first attempt at making a pizza I used half the dough and made a pepperoni and baby Portobello pizza.
It was tasty but the crust came out thicker than I like it and it took around 10 minutes to fully cook. I rotated the pizza 180 three times at 2 1/2 minute intervals during this cook.
The next few I used about 1/3 of the dough and the crusts turned out delightfully crisp and the cheese and toppings bubbly and crusty. I was starting to get the hang of it and was really pleased with the results. My favorite one of the day had diced tomatoes, diced pepperoni, basil leaves, mushrooms and feta cheese. It was fantastic. The thinner crust only took about 7 minutes to bake. The dual cordierite stones and the heat reflective lid do a good job at cooking both the top and the bottom of the pizza at the same time. The top vent lets moisture escape which can otherwise make your pizzas soggy.
The crust looks black on the left side but it was perfectly done. The sun was low at this point and casting deep shadows. The oven seems to perform best when cooking thin pizzas. The uncooked dough for these were about 1/4 inch thick.
Overall I was very pleased with the pizzas I made with this unit. Once hot you can cook pizza after pizza without any waiting between pies. I highly recommend this product.
- The directions say to use flour on your peel instead of cornmeal. I am not sure why, but the flour seemed to work well so I stuck with that method. In the past I have always used cornmeal.
- The back of the oven is hotter than the front so after about 2:30 minutes you have to slide the pizza out with the peel rotate the pizza 180 degrees slide it back onto the pizza stone. I found that even with the thinner crusts I would have to turn the pizzas twice for a total bake time of about 8 minutes. Again, I like my pizzas a bit more on the crispy side, so I may not take as long to bake if you like your pizzas a bit less cooked.
- The cooking chamber is not very tall, so a thin metal peel will work much better than a thicker wooden one.
- While the legs allow you to use the Pizzeria Pronto on any surface the outside of the unit gets very hot. Make sure you set it up in a place where people will not accidentally touch it.
Addendum: During further testing I was able to use an infrared heat gun to get a more accurate temperature reading. It turns out that the built in thermometer was not very accurate. I found that if you left the unit on high the pizza stone would reach a maximum temperature of around 675° F. At this temperature the pizzas were completely cooked in 5 minutes.

Rihanna and Chris Brown's relationship has been the subject of much speculation, well, for as long as we can remember. But last week she dramatically revealed in a brand new Rolling Stone interview that not only are the pair 100 percent back on, she doesn't feel like she has to explain herself anymore.
In the candid interview, which was accompanied by some very raunchy snaps taken by terry Richardson, Rihanna said, 'I decided it was more important for me to be happy, and I wasn't going to let anybody's opinion get in the way of that. Even if it's a mistake it's my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I'd rather just live my truth and take the backlash.'
Many of you will remember that fateful and horrific night in February 2009 when, following a pre-Grammies party, Chris Brown horrifically assaulted Rihanna. Following a heated argument police reports revealed that Chris repeatedly threatened to kill his girlfriend, leaving her with a split lip, cut face, black eyes, bruises around her fingers and bite marks on her ears. Hence why some people will find Rihanna's confessions shocking.
Now in this week's brand spanking new copy of Grazia we reveal the backlash Rihanna has once again faced. From friends and fans alike her decision to take Brown back is still raising debate. We also reveal how her friends such as Katy Perry have taken the new, pick up your copy or download our iPad app now…

Bought this ring for my fiancee'. She wore the ring for 1 week and 1 stone feel out. Customer service stated the only solution was to send the ring in for repair. Repair is estimated to take 4-6 weeks. Totally unacceptable customer service and product quality. I will never purchase through Overstock again. *** isn't the most expensive but is expensive enough of a product that this situation should not happen.
Beautiful ring! The diamonds are not as clear as the ones on my ring, but for the price it can't be beat!
This is one beautiful ring! I bought it for my wife as an anniversary present and she is absolutely enthralled with it! It shines beautifully in light and the diamonds are not too small or too big! Just perfect! Great deal! Definitely deserves 5 stars!

High resolution interpolation of climate scenario change factors for the conterminous USA derived from AR4 General Circulation Model simulations
Projections of future global climate have been developed by numerous climate modeling groups; however, this data is often at spatial scales much larger than the spatial scale of resource management. This study develops a set of change factors that can be used with a user-selected historical climate data set to create climate change projections at the spatial scale of approximately 9.25 kilometer grid. Change factors are available for these climate variables: monthly mean daily maximum and minimum temperatures and precipitation, solar radiation, wind speed, and vapor pressure (used to calculate specific humidity).Data for the United States and Canada were extracted. Data for the conterminous United States are contained in this data product. Alaska data are available as another data product.
This research was a collaborative effort between scientists at the Canadian Forest Service and scientists at the USDA Forest Service.
