An agreement has been reached regarding a formal complaint leveled against 36 United Methodist clergy and leaders who blessed a gay wedding in defiance of official church rules.
Last week, the UMC Eastern Pennsylvania Conference announced a "Just Resolution" made between the 36 clergy and leaders and the complainant.
John Coleman, communications director with EPA UMC, told The Christian Post that the just resolution between the two parties was the preferred result of the complaint. more >>
A conference aimed at increasing awareness about the ex-gay community showcased the diversity of the movement in the United States, says one of its organizers.
Conservative groups including Voice of the Voiceless, the Family Research Council, and the Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays held the second annual Ex-Gay Awareness Conference in Washington, D.C. Oct. 3-4.
Christopher Doyle, president and co-founder of Voice of the Voiceless, told The Christian Post that the event "was a great success." more >>
The U.S. Supreme Court declined Monday to hear appeals from five states of appellate court rulings striking down state marriage laws.
The decision to not hear the cases, for now, means that Virginia, Wisconsin and Utah will begin recognizing marriages of two people of the same gender. Since the appeals courts for those states cover other states, the decision could mean that an additional six states may be required to recognize same-sex marriages, even if the voters or elected bodies of those states chose to define civil marriage as only the union of one man and one woman.
The Court was petitioned by both traditional marriage supporters and same-sex marriage supporters to hear the cases. more >>
The Supreme Court has declined to take up appeals from states in which the courts have found same-sex marriage to be a constitutional right. This paves the way for same-sex marriage in many, perhaps most, places in the United States. Many Christians may be unaware of how momentous this is, since the denial of cases doesn't come with quite the shock and awe of a ruling handed down. The effect though is wide-ranging. So what should our response be as the church of Jesus Christ?
There are two responses we should avoid.
The first is the temptation to listen to those who would want to jettison a Christian sexual ethic in order to acclimate to the cultural moment. We have no authority to revise what Jesus has handed down to us. Our vision of marriage is not the equivalent of a church constitution and by-laws, adaptable by a majority vote. Marriage is not simply a cultural or legal practice, but is instead an icon of the union between Christ and his church, embedded in the creation (Eph. 5:22-31). Without a Christian vision of marriage, we have no Christian vision of the gospel. more >>
For years now, educators have known that a confrontation was looming between secular accreditation agencies and Christian schools over the issue of homosexuality. What would these colleges and universities and seminaries do when they were told they had to revise their policies on homosexual practice?
We no longer need to speculate, as this hypothetical scenario has become reality.
An October 2nd article in Christianity Today noted that, "Gordon College will spend the next year studying current campus policies on same-sex behavior." more >>
An attorney allied with Alliance Defending Freedom filed a petition Thursday in New York state court asking for a review of the NY State Division of Human Rights decision that fined farm owners Cynthia and Robert Gifford $13,000 for refusing to host a lesbian wedding ceremony on their property.
"All Americans should be free to live and work according to their beliefs. Entering the marketplace doesn't mean the government can force a person to surrender their First Amendment freedoms or face punishment," said James Trainor, the attorney.
"The commission demonstrated stunning disregard for the Giffords' First Amendment rights, which were never considered at the hearing. The commissioner's order in essence gives an ultimatum: host same-sex marriage ceremonies or none at all," Trainor added. more >>

RENO, Nev. (AP) - Technology giant Apple Inc. will pay for construction of an 18-megawatt photovoltaic solar plant in northern Nevada.
The Fort Churchill Solar Array, to be built in Yerington, was included in a filing Monday by NV Energy Inc. with the Public Utilities Commission outlining the utilities integrated resource plan.
Apple last year announced plans to build a data center east of Reno. The solar generating plant will be located south of that in Lyon County.
The company says the solar project will provide renewable energy for the data center and add clean energy to the local power grid.
The proposal is the first under a new program that allows electricity customers to buy more renewable energy than required under state portfolio standards without affecting rates of other customers on the grid.

A Brilliant Game That's Hard Not To Nitpick
To talk about Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception without comparing it to its excellent predecessor Among Thieves would be difficult. In fact, I'm certain it's a crime that I haven't played Drake's Fortune to compare them both back another two years. Little else has really tried to capture the cinematic action gameplay the series offers, let alone the frantic destructive setpiece design. The two games even share similar arcs and locations, to the point where those experienced with Uncharted might be feeling an odd sense of déjà vu. But, then, I suppose it's a testament to the formula that this year's iteration comes out so strong.
Nathan Drake's adventures in Uncharted 3 do feel refined in comparison to some of the potentially ruinous parts of Uncharted 2. Without getting into spoiler territory, the last chapters of Among Thieves were densely populated with over-difficult scenarios and a new type of enemy that can make or break the experience. As for the now-famous train sequence…well, in my eyes, the less said the better. This new title seems to have read my mind; only a couple encounters retain the balancing issues of the previous game. However, a few new issues crop up in this title, and for some, they may hold back the title from the accolades it will inevitably receive.
This time, our adventures begin with Nate (still excellently voiced by Nolan North) and his long-time partner and mentor Sully going to settle a trade, and already we're introduced to some of the strengths and weaknesses of Uncharted 3. The cinematic sensibilities of the game quickly sweep us into the stylings of a crime film; for those unaware of Uncharted's history, they might be fooled into thinking they were watching a Guy Ritchie film. However, the moment the gentlemen enter the bar in which the deal will be conducted, one really has to ask, "Why is everyone in this bar bald?" Unfortunately, enemy variety does not get much better as the game progresses, with almost half the game being spent shooting Jason Statham look-alikes and men in suits of the Hitman variety, though some of the suited enemies have the decency to sport some locks.
Our characters meet up with Jason Statham look-alike Charlie Cutter, who checks them for weapons as they enter a room upstairs to make their deal. Cutter, who is voiced by the same man as ex-Uncharted Villain Zoran Lazarevic, proves to be an entertaining character throughout the game, as does the man holding his leash, Talbot. The snark factor of the conversations continues to drive Uncharted's characterization. Though there actually will be more sincere moments in Drake's Deception than the previous game, sarcasm is still practically bread-and-butter to the writing staff, and they apply it liberally. All the new characters in this title actually manage to impress, although one late-game character could do to be developed a little better.
Quickly, things go south for the deal, and we're introduced to Uncharted 3's hand-to-hand combat system. It's just as strong as in the previous title, with liberal timing being allowed for counter-attacks and limited maneuvering in favor of just smacking some dudes in the face. Some people will be disappointed to see a lot more repetition in the takedowns this time, though one particular takedown in which he pulls the pin of a grenade on his opponent's belt is successfully entertaining no matter how often it happens. The game presents more opportunities than ever to use the melee combat during larger firefights, as the cover in many scenarios is formed by larger structures than in previous games, preventing Drake from being turned into bulletholes as he drives a strategically placed wrench into an opponent's skull. There's also at least one more encounter built upon fighting a pretty large number of random mooks unarmed, and it takes on a life of almost Arkham proportions. The enemies go down faster in this than they do in Arkham, but the system is far more simplified, so your mileage may vary comparing the two.
There are also some larger, heavier enemies to fistfight throughout the game, and one makes an appearance in this bar fight. It might be a small thing to nitpick, but aside from a single encounter with an African man with the same build, every single one of these encounters takes place against a specific model that looks quite a bit like Team Fortress 2's Heavy Weapons Guy. These encounters are entertaining, but by about halfway through the game, you start questioning whether or not Naughty Dog included only a single model as a joke, a gameplay tip, or if they seriously thought it wouldn't damage the immersion.
And Uncharted 3, to clarify, is still all about immersion. The gameplay during this fistfight and its cutscenes flow together extremely fluidly, so it's a disappointment that the immersion is damaged by such simple mistakes. Other gameplay tips, such as flying birds or specific colors driving your path, are far subtler, and might not even be noticed by a lot of players. However, for those who have trouble following the visual cues the Uncharted team has laid upon its many setpiece chases and platforming sequences, the pacing in the game can be an absolute bear. The game's extreme guiding of your path doesn't help in this case, and Among Thieves certainly seemed to offer a lot more variety in the paths through some of the game's more open encounters. Uncharted 3 contains two enemy encounters as open as many of the best ones in Uncharted 2.
That applies to Uncharted 3 in many ways. Where Uncharted 2 was about exploring large areas and looking for lost tombs in "this general area," Uncharted 3 is about following in the footsteps of others. Drake has been certain of a cover-up involving his famous ancestor Sir Francis Drake for most of his life, and in Uncharted 3 he finally discovers a lead to begin chasing after what turns out to be Ubar, or Iram of the Pillars, or the "Atlantis of the Sands." While certainly less evocative than Shangri-La or El Dorado, this adventure still proves to have a lot of thrills with more of a Middle Eastern tendency.
Of course, where there are Middle Eastern historical stories, the Templars will inevitably flock into the story. At this point, the comparisons to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade must finally be acknowledged. Yes, there is a sequence where you play as a young Nathan Drake. Yes, this game is about Drake's relationship to his legacy and to his father figure, Sully. And, yes, we will go from Europe to the Middle East, and we'll even attack a convoy in the desert at one point. Uncharted 3 very nearly STINKS of the great Ford/Connery trilogy-closer, and while it certainly diverges in many of the specifics, some of the game's greatest strengths are ripped from an already-great story. While there were some light elements of Raiders and Temple of Doom in the previous two Uncharted titles, none of them were as blatant as those present in Uncharted 3. It's not quite Mafia II "let's very nearly take this scene from Goodfellas shot for shot!" bad, but for those who have seen the film and played Among Thieves; it's hard for Uncharted 3 to feel like a truly original journey.
To go this far and not acknowledge the gunplay of Uncharted is, of course, a crime. The system is back pretty nearly in its entirety, although a couple new changes have been made. The emphasis on low-ammo occasionally present in Uncharted 2 has almost completely faded, and the necessity for power-weapons to overcome more powerful enemies has drastically been toned down. The Gatling-gun enemies, or anything like them, have been completely removed from Uncharted 3, leading to faster, more enjoyable encounters with the aforementioned legion of Jason Statham and Agent 47 lookalikes. This time, Drake has also learned to toss grenades back at his foe, which enters the game so unobtrusively you almost wonder why it hadn't appeared in the previous title.
Also changed from Among Thieves is the previously all-laughs tone. This game more deeply explores what makes these characters tick, and while sarcasm still flows throughout the game (and is often actually funny) the characters seem a lot more desperate and emotional than in the previous game. The tension between characters speaks volumes more than it did before, and Drake actually comes out of the title a slightly tragic figure. Those hoping to see a further development of Chloe Frazer from the previous title, however, had better be ready to wait. While Chloe appears in the game, she is the only recurring character not to receive a deeper look than she had previously.
They certainly have changed her looks, though. None of Uncharted's mainstays really look like their old selves. Chloe's Asian features have been drastically emphasized, and Elena and Sully have become noticeably prettier. Drake's visual changes are probably the most drastic, though, with many shots making him look more and more like Nolan North. I find it a bit odd that I've seen no one comment on this, but Drake's face actually has a tendency to change pretty drastically throughout the entire game. In Yemen, his face is extremely expressive and looks more like his old self; in the ship level showed off at E3, however, he looks far more like Nolan North. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it seems worth noting that these characters have changed in more ways than simply being "better-realized."
Not that graphically the game isn't better realized. The tendency for explosive, gorgeous setpieces still reigns supreme, and the game's effects and environments look almost ridiculously beautiful in comparison to pretty much any game on any platform. While it might not be the "best-looking game of all time" for some, it's a front-runner, though the shadows at times are still a bit jaggy. Personally, the more relevant part of Uncharted is its visual design, and it carries that through from its previous title as being absolutely amazing.
The game's musical score is starting to stand out as less-than-spectacular, though. While the tracks certainly function as they always have, and that pan flute that sweeps as the game's musical motifs certainly is recognizable as Uncharted, it feels like it's time for the game to have a truly memorable composition, especially if it's planning to continue aping a film series with such a memorable tune. None of the gun effects are jarring, and the rest of its sound effects are as strong as always.
While Among Thieves' cooperative mode was less-than-strong, Uncharted 3 steps things up with a miniature-campaign that takes 5 levels from Among Thieves and Drake's Deception and refashions them into a short story. Present in this cooperative mode are new short cutscenes, and it's also worth noting that there are "save your partners" mechanics reminiscent of those from Gears of War or Resident Evil 5. Those looking for their post-Gears of War cooperative campaign will have to lose a friend, though, as the cooperative campaign still supports only three players. Still, it's largely expanded from the previous title's horde mode, although that is still present in its previous form.
The competitive multiplayer is far better balanced than the previous title, however, with character progression happening far more naturally in terms of weaponry. Specific perks are attached to individual weapons, such as the ability to tag opponents with your weapons when you hit them. The more aesthetic unlockables are locked behind pretty serious walls, though, so plan to make a decision about a weapon early and get to that aesthetic stuff a lot later. With Killzone's "objective rollout" being added almost directly to one playlist and with it being adapted into "power plays" for the Team Deathmatch mode, it seems more reasonable now than ever to spend lots of time with Uncharted 3's multiplayer.
I've given Uncharted 3 lots of flack for its faults here, but it's still one of my favorite games ever. Though it has some pretty disappointing design flaws and a lot of predictability for those familiar with its inspirations, Uncharted 3 is still an absolute blast to play, its characters are still some of the best in the industry, and it's still innovating how to effectively play games. Though I certainly wouldn't cry if this was the end of Drake's journeys for a while, I'm excited for when he next departs.

2004 Audi A4 Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 38 reviews
Family car or personal status symbol, the Audi A4 is Audi's most economically-oriented model, offering a precision driving experience with high-end comfort and elegance inside. And whatever your purpose, the A4 has a model to suit you -- from practical family wagon, to a more classic four-door sedan, or the let-your-hair down-because-it's-the-weekend convertible.
Finally, AWD is available in all A4s in 2004, as the Cabriolet gets a quattro version. Also new in the 2004 Audi A4 are standard tire pressure monitors in all trims. The 1.8T receives an upgrade to 16-inch wheels and you have the option of a 6-speed manual. That means all A4s offer standard 5-speed manual, and optional 6-speed manual or Tiptronic auto. The CVT, continuously variable transmission, is offered in only front-wheel drive A4s and not the quattro.
The starter A4 is the budget-minded 1.8-liter, 170-hp Turbo, available as either a sedan, wagon, or convertible. Though a lot less expensive than the 3.0-liter, 220-hp V6 models, it offers comparable standard features, such as dual climate control, power windows and locks, fog lights, keyless entry, and cruise control. Leather seats, power sunroof, and power adjustable front seats are options, but one complaint about Audi is that adding options or engine upgrades is expensive. All 2004 A4s feature front and side airbags, ABS brakes,and traction control, and Audi always gets rated highly for safety.
The 2004 A4 is a great sturdy family car, loved for its confident steering and handling and the quattro's surefire ability in snow or on rough roads. Most drivers suggest getting a quattro, and to always get a manual transmission. Inside, owners love the comfort and interior layout and all the standard features. The CVT auto tran is considered smooth once you get the hang of it. Drawbacks to the Audi A4 include a rear blind spot caused by the rear headrests, faulty cupholders, a sometimes suspect electrical system, wind noise, and an underpowered 1.8T. And unfortunately, expensive parts and unhelpful Audi staff also seem to be a trademark of Audi.

HoopsHype Jason Kidd rumors
Adrian Wojnarowski: Jason Kidd is pursuing permission to bring Nets assistant coach Eric Hughes to Milwaukee with him, league source tells Yahoo Sports. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Nets Daily: Told #Nets players and assistant coaches were having a hard time getting in touch with Kidd over weekend. He has 6 assistants. Twitter @NetsDaily
Chris Mannix: Nets are not considering tampering charges, per sources. Too hard to prove. But few believe Bucks/Kidd discussions started this weekend. Twitter @ChrisMannixSI
Chris Mannix: Bucks owners are taking a beating from other coaches, execs around the league. Nothing about this process sits right with many people. Twitter @ChrisMannixSI
But multiple sources insist the maneuvering started during the fraught months of December and January, and that Kidd did not open the game by asking for the top front-office job. Kidd during that period approached ownership with concerns about King's job performance, sources say — King's commitment, leadership, and vision for the future. Kidd suggested the organization might hire an outsider for a front-office job above King, sources say. Kidd even wondered if ownership had a basketball guy in Russia who might come to Brooklyn and take on a more activist role above King. Grantland
Kidd did not pitch himself for the job — not at first, anyway. Those initial discussions went nowhere, though not everyone involved agrees on the timing and tenor of those talks. King is well liked in Brooklyn, and has followed ownership edicts in dealing away just about every future asset possible to win immediately. The Bucks sought permission to talk to Kidd earlier this month, presumably about their head coaching job, and when the Nets were slow to respond, Kidd and his team began agitating for Kidd himself to assume the double perch, sources say. Grantland
Kidd lost a power play in Brooklyn, where he had tried to usurp the power of GM Billy King through ownership, sources said. Kidd had gone to ownership seeking the president of basketball operations title and was denied. It led to Brooklyn allowing him persmission to talk with the Bucks, whose new co-owner, Marc Lasry, has been a longtime financial adviser. Around the NBA, there's a strong belief that Kidd will ascend sooner rather than later to run the Bucks' basketball operations. Milwaukee currently has a general manager, John Hammond, in place. Yahoo! Sports
Brian Windhorst: After trading for Jason Kidd, the Bucks owners have called a meeting this a.m. with Larry Drew, sources said. I'm sure that will go well. Twitter @WindhorstESPN
The Milwaukee Bucks have agreed to send two second-round draft picks to the Brooklyn Nets to secure the coaching rights to Jason Kidd, sources tell ESPN.com. The Bucks had been offering one second-round pick, but the Nets initially wanted a 2015 first-round pick in exchange, a negotiating chip the Bucks originally dismissed. ESPN.com
Charles F. Gardner: Bucks land Jason Kidd, source confirms. Compensation will be 2 second-round picks, one in 2015 and one in 2018 or 2019. Twitter @cf_gardner
Jeff Zillgitt: Can confirm @Charles F. Gardner that picks headed to Nets: one second rounder in 2015 and one second-rounder in 2018 or 2019. Twitter @JeffZillgitt
Tim Bontemps: I can confirm @Chris Broussard report that the Nets are getting two second round picks for Jason Kidd. Deal is done. Twitter @TimBontemps
Nets Daily: #Nets source confirms deal is done, Kidd gone, two second rounders going to brooklyn Twitter @NetsDaily
Adrian Wojnarowski: Here's what the Milwaukee owners had communicated to coach Larry Drew about negotiating a deal for his job w/ Jason Kidd: Nothing. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Brandon Rush: Coaches can be traded now crazy. Twitter @BRush_25
Chris Broussard: Source : Bucks and Nets reach deal for Jason Kidd Twitter @Chris_Broussard
Howard Beck: Source confirms: Bucks and Nets have reached a deal allowing Kidd to leave for Milwaukee. @Chris Broussard was first. Twitter @HowardBeck
Marc Stein: ESPN sources say Bucks are sending two second-round picks to Nets to secure coaching rights to Jason Kidd Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Chris Broussard: Source: Kidd "traded" to Bucks for 2 future second round picks Twitter @Chris_Broussard
Ken Berger: Bucks and Nets "still in a holding pattern" on draft-pick compensation for Jason Kidd to coach Bucks, league source says. Twitter @KBergCBS

Jakarta was covered by flood again in January and this year looks to be a bad one as the city has been crippled by the floods, which are already higher than the 2007 deluge.
With the main road in the central business district turned into rivers that caused many government offices and businesses to close. Many residences were submerged by the water that reached 2-3 metres high and thousands were evacuated. Cars and motorcycles broke down and were abandoned. Public transport came to a standstill. Travel through the streets, even on foot, was nearly impossible in much of the capital.
To keep true with our DeloitteSHINES objectives, Deloitte Indonesia have initiated a Shine for Jakarta initiative, led by Ibu Henny Dorothea in coordination with the Clients and Markets team, to help in any way we can those affected by the floods. Through Shine for Jakarta, we hope that any assistance that each of us contributed would help those affected by the heavy flooding. In order to make it happen, we decided to collect some donations which were primarily clothing and cash from 22-31 January 2013.
During the donation period, we managed to collect for various charities both for the adults and children including items clothes, bags, sarong, praying utilities, blanket and toys. Some of the items were new and especially purchased for the cause. The cash donation was done via bank transfer or through Donation Boxes which was available on each of the Deloitte office floors. The response was tremendous.
The cash donations reached a total of IDR 30 million. The cash and clothing was donated to orphanage house Panti Asuhan Kampung Melayu. This orphanage has about 60 children ranging from 6 to 19 years old. Last January they were affected with 1.5m high of floodwater. The Clients and Markets team surveyed the orphanage house and it is now in the process of being renovated. As a manifestation of our "As One" motto, we did not want to only focus help externally to Deloitte but we also identified some of our own people, who were severely affected by the flood and donated some of the cash to them.

DIRTT (Doing it Right This Time) www.DIRTT.net
Agile Interior Walls, Raised Access Floors, Modula Electric Systems
Working within CWC (Largest contract furniture dealer in GA, www.C-W-C.com) I work exclusively with building interior products that are "agile" or "flexible." Our walls, floors, and electric systems can be easily reconfigured as your business workspace needs evolve.
Conventional Contruction operates under this Lifecycle model: Initial Build.......Demolish, Dispose, Rebuild.....Demolish, Dispose, Rebuild....Demolish, Dispose, Rebuild.
If a building interior utilizes "agile" building components the Lifecycle model changes to: Initial Build......Reconfigure.....Reconfigure.....Reconfigure.
These "agile" products eliminate the constant demolition and disposal of building interiors. The products not only benefit environment, they save businesses hundres of thousands of dollars because they don't have to continue paying for the conventional construction lifecycle. You can simply keep reusing the components you already own.
If your business is reconfiguring workspaces or building out a new space, our DIRTT team can give you a proposal for interior walls, floors, and modular electric that will always be flexible and accomodate any future workspace changes. I am in Atlanta, GA but am not constrained to Georgia. We often provide solutions for companies with mutliple locations. Contact, Mike Collins, CWC - DIRTT Champion at 770-621-6677 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Score from 350 reviews Very good
We left a long time before breakfast was due to be served on a Saturday morning but they were very accommodating, providing buffet fare and a hot drinks which we were not expecting. Top service and all down with a cracking smile.
Walls are a bit thin bit no more so then at home.
facilities good staff friendly breakfast good
We could actually hear the people in the next room fairly clearly and they were not shouting. Probably would not want to stay for more than 1 night in the room we were in - compact especially en suite.Only downside everything else was fine and we would probably use again
Bit noisy when guests arrives.
Situation, comfort ,cleanliness: very friendly and accommodating staff. Delicious, freshly prepared breakfast. Rooms very comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities, tv, wifi,etc. Most enjoyable!
Lack of a lounge area disappointing having to sit in your room makes you stay out even if you do not feel like it
The welcoming feel, the simple touches, the cosiness. Close to local popular eateries. Lovely breakfast included.
Only downside is parking or lack thereof.
The room was comfortable. The bathroom was small but ok. The breakfast was very good.
excellent breakfast---helpful staff
street parking
We were very warmly welcomed and made to feel completely at home. Great location with places of interest nearby, close to the shops and bars of Uplands and a 15 minute walk to the city centre and marina. The breakfast was faultless with a wide range of food.
My one, tiny, complaint was that the room was a little too warm for me but that really is nitpicking.
cleanliness staff were happy to go the extra mile location wifi actually worked!
bedroom walls were very thin - could hear next door coughing all night
Very friendly staff. Very good breakfast. Although the room was very samll, but it has got everything one can need . The location was just perfect for my purpose of stay.
Staff very welcoming and room comfortable. Excellent breakfast and service.
Noise of revellers from nearby pubs in early hours of morning and traffic noise as room facing busy road.
Lovely premises, great breakfast, always friendly staff, handy location, close to Toby carvery
Parking can be sometimes tricky to find close by at certain times
Lovely house, very pleasant welcome, tidy rooms (if a bit small). Cooked breakfast exceptionally good!
Ensuite was extremely small.
Friendly staff. Clean and comfortable. Great breakfast.
Pleasant, comfortable room, warm welcome from staff, delicious breakfast, perfect location for its' proximity to both the city and the University - very vibrant area but room quiet.Plenty of places to eat and drink nearby. Easy parking close to hotel. Our second visit and will definitely use again!
Very nice Hotel. Comfortable and a great breakfast. Will be going back in a few weeks.

Nice room with comfy bed. Good powerful shower. Convenient location for Food & Drink. Reasonably priced. Excellent friendly service. The breakfast is marvellous! With fresh fruit and loads of choice!
Busy road! Can be quite noisy at times!
Fantastic Service and a great breakfast!!
The warm welcome, the helpful and friendly care of Stephan and Kamal, the lovely room, the wonderful breakfasts, and the great location: especially meaningful to all Dylan Thomas fans!
Great accommodation ..the owners are friendly and knowledgeable of the area and willing to suggest things to do, places to eat and "must-see" areas. This is our second visit and we will definitely be back.
Excellent breakfast. Welcoming staff.
Safe locked, could not use. Trouser press not working
Rooms had poor ventilation and were very hot making it difficult to sleep.
almost everything was good, but...
every flush, use of water and so on by neighbors was rather loud. This can be annoying at night/early in the morning.

The Prices Household Tin. Giving Yankee A Run For their Money!
Advantages: A very pleasant scented candle that helps neutralise domestic odours

...Review of of Prices Household Tin, a Scented Candle

Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

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.

This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...
