- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

A Message from Pastor Matt
Dear St. Paul's Family, Thursday, October 16th was a sad day at St. Paul's. Four of the five gingko trees that marked one corner of West Union Street and Edgewood Avenue were cut down.

Amazon-bashed HMV calls in administrators, seeks buyer
Re: Wonder how much tax HMV paid
Amazon was avoiding pay corporation tax. This is a tax on PROFIT. HMV's problem is that it was nowhere near having any in the first place.
What Amazon *was* doing, was exploiting small consignment relief on imports of media supplied from the Channel Islands. For all I know, perhaps HMV was doing this as well for mail order? Just about everybody else was at the time. This loophole was closed earlier in the year, and that's done nothing for HMV.

Microsoft to Moto: We'll give you $1m a year for your patents
It is a requirement for any participant in a formal standardisation process to declare any patents they hold on the technology and agree to FRAND license. In the case of MPEG - so presumably H.264 - there is a patent pool arrangement in place.
The 802.11 standards are also formal standards.
Hotel blames burglaries on hacked Onity card locks
Broken design
THe security of these locks is fundamentally broken, and if the hacker's paper is to be believed, the design is at best negligent, with all the hallmarks 'we know best' security practice - in particular the DIY crypto algorithm.
Onity's statement disingenuous: the hack is hardly complex - it involves little more than a lost cost micro-controller, a battery and a few passives - probably about $5 of parts. Schematics and full source-code are readily available. The report elsewhere that a pen-size lock-pick has been made is not at all surprising.
What surprises me is that this isn't already heading towards a class-action law-suit state-side - especially if the reports here that Onity is charging hotels for new lock components.
BlackBerry 10: AWESOME. If the hardware matches it, RIM jobs are safe
Re: One-trick pony
You seem to be falling into the trap that many others are doing, This statement is simply not true. Lots of QNX in embedded applications (also a lot of Linux and VxWorks too FWIW).
Whilst BB10 might be build with QNX at its core, you definitely not assume that devices using QNX have anything of the extra stuff that BB10 brings to the party, or that there is suddenly any kind of interoperability.
Your assertion is about as useful as saying that because Android is based on a Linux kernel, a Linux server must therefore have similarities or capabilities of Android.
Samsung brews half-asleep OCTO CORE phone brain MONSTER
Re: RE: code in C++
You *think* wrong.
If you'd ever tried debugging application in Android you'd know just how quickly java method calls find their way into native C++. Sure, there are performance critical things that you are better not implementing in Java, and which there are no C++ APIs for. A very small proportion of the software running on a Android phone is actually running in the VM.
Rather, the problems with Android have traditionally been a lack of coherent use of hardware acceleration and lack of bad behaviour of apps - in part due to the lack the strong-arm policy controlling what apps can and cannot do that Apple imposes, and Microsoft has copied for Windows RT.
For the sake of completion - it's worth pointing out that Objective-C is garbage collected and there isn't a direct C++ API for the GUI in iOS either (although ObjectiveC and C or C++ are toll-free bridged, and plenty of the APIs are in fact C).
Post-defenestration Microsoft: It's the APIs, stupid. And Metro
Re: WP8
Porting an well designed and portable kernel to a new platform is a new CPU architecture such that it is functional is relatively straightforward. There is very little platform-specific code in a modern operating system. Go and look at the Linux or *BSD source trees to confirm this.
What will have been a lot of work is cracking the problem of power management - particularly as WIndows 8 is targeted at mobile devices. MS has achieved this for no fewer than 3 ARM SoC platforms - no small achievement.
Re: WP8
Whilst the the very core of the NT kernel certainly has leanings towards being a Microkernel - particularly in terms of modularity - it's about as monolithic as they come.
Re: If Ballmer and Microsoft think any professional would ever use Metro they are on crack

QNX is a real-time embedded operating system - with a micro-kernel at its core, and POSIX-like layers around it. Which is pretty much same architectural choice as MacOSX/iOS's use of the Mach microkernel. There is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that MacOSX/iOS are both very solid and fit for purpose.
What really matters for a mobile phone OS are the user-space, user-interface and middleware layers. QNX has very little to offer here, so this is all coming from RIM - and which they are having difficulty delivering in time. At the time of writing, these are an unknown quantity.
Just about the only things of UNIX origin in iOS are low level system libraries providing POSIX APIs, and some parts of the kernel.
There's probably a similar amount 'UNIX' in an Android phone too.

Re: Self-service checkouts

Hence the irritating recorded messages sometimes appearing several seconds after you've scanned the next item.
They all appear to be produced by the same manufacturer, and all shining examples poor software usability, Also apparent is that nobody at the supermarkets or manufacturer actually cares about this either.

National Rail Enquiries
Re: Switzerland.....
This 'National Rail' application is in fact produced for the Association of Train Operating Companies, which is a private company limited by Guarantee, whose members are UK train operators. It provides passenger information services to consumers, including the National Rail Enquiries phone service.
ATOC has a track record of trying to monetize these services (its other funding stream is from its member companies).
Does rather seem to be me like double dipping. You might like to write to your MP and Justine Greening (secretary of state for transport) - who is currently in the process refranchising a large proportion of UK rail services - asking why unfettered public access to this data is not a requirement of all future franchises.

The true, tragic cost of British wind power
To say these reports are biased in favour of Wind power (despite both coming out rather negatively against) them is a huge understatement.
Balancing capacity - as indicated in the article - is the real biggy here. The grid will need as much spare - and reliable - generating (or load shedding) capacity as it has wind generation for the days when there is no wind. This will most likely be provided be gas turbine plants.
So in effect, we'd need just as many of these plants as we'd need NOT building wind-turbines, but they would run far below designed load most of the time, yet cost just as much to build and maintain.
Wind energy is simply not a scalable or realistic renewable technology for bulk generation. Neither is PV Solar. Hydro and Tidal schemes on the other hand can work.
FSF fandroids fight to 'free' Android from Google's forepaws
Re: Replicant
You might recall that this was always Stallman's intention with a free replacement for desktop UN*X about 25 years ago. They started from the bottom upwards with shell utils and compilers.
The result of that process is essentially GNU/Hurd - which is not exactly ready for consumer use, and some parts (GCC for example) are suffering considerable code-rot and look likely to be superseded.
Obviously, in the mean-time, Linux came along, and computer architecture moved on, leaving a lot of the proprietary smarts in device firmware.
Not just from Google
The closed parts of these phones aren't just coming from Google - they also come from the chipset vendor.
There are often large of opaque code that interfaces with some highly proprietary features of Systems on Chips. This includes things such as hardware accelerated video for camera interfaces, face-recognition (used for autofocus on cameras), hardware accelerated media decode, and probably most crucially, OpenGLES graphics drivers.
Some vendors, such as TI publicly distribute the binaries (they're all done in user-space incidentally - to avoid issues with the GPL'd kernel) as black boxes. Others don't even do this. None of them release the source code, and you'll need an NDA for the documentation to build your own equivalent (and releasing any resulting source code would probably be a breach of the NDA).
WIthout these components, your open source phone is going to suck considerably - both in experience and on the battery.
Brits trapped in confusing council website labyrinths - survey
CMS Hell
I think all too often the, the CMS used to drive these sites is cause of poor usability.
Obviously, a CMS brings with it benefits to the organisation, such as devolved the creation of website content to the relevant departments, but this often leads to clunky pages as those writing them have little knowledge of usability and are constrained by the structure of the CMS.
My local council (London Borough of Islington) has brain damage such as 'to search planning applications click the 'planning' button on the toolbar on the left' - rather than providing a direct link in the content.
Saying that, the pages where this leads (https://www.islington.gov.uk/onlineplanning/apas/run/Wphappcriteria.showApplications?regfromdate=05-mar-2012®todate=05-mar-2012&DispResultsAs=wphappsresweek1) is clearly not within the CMS framework, and is a vanilla database driven query. It is piss-poor, being practically impossible to use unless you know the precise street address or planning application number, and looks poor as well. The 174 validation warnings for 1 page of content suggest there are several *per line* of HTML.
Their page for applying for a resident's parking permit is similar bad, and buggy as well. This is a service I struggle to use on an annual basis.
Pretty poor show - probably driven by an inability of the Council to hire good staff to build these sites.

Survey: Android set to beat iOS in battle for coder love
The issue is that Android provides a high-level audio API (both native and bridged into Java) that is fundamentally not designed for this kind of application.
The phone vendor (or more likely chipset vendor) decide how they implement this API - in some cases, it's a thin-shim onto ALSA, but it doesn't have to be. You'd be an unwise if you made assumptions here.
There's also a lack of MIDI support - iOS on the other hand has CoreMIDI, which works just as it does in MacOSX, and device drivers for class-compliant USB MIDI devices. It takes about half an hour to plumb this into an application.
Finally, any performance critical real-time app - for instance a soft synth - is going to need to be a native app. Whilst the NDK is much better than it was, it's not a great experience to develop with.
Music Apps
One area in which Android has nearly zero market penetration is music creation/performance applications (think sequencers, software sythnetisers and so on). iOS is awash with them, and they are invariable premium paid-for apps or have in-app purchase.
The reasons for this? Various, but lack of device support (and lack of uniformity between devices) , lack of SDK support, and Android architectural choices all figure, but it's basically a royal PITA to develop these types of apps for Android.
For Windows Phone 7 on the other hand, it's practically impossible.
Redmond campaigns for gay marriage rights
The government is currently trying to finish the job off and make civil partnerships marriages. And yes, this is coming from the (generally younger) leadership of the centre-right Conservative Party- although there are plenty of party members bitterly opposed to it (and a few in the Labour Party too).
One pragmatic solution is to make all unions civil partnerships and allow couples of religious persuasion to dress it up as they see fit.
More likely a function of the demographic who works at such companies: Devout belief in imaginary friends is not a common occurrence amongst scientists, software engineers and designers.
Or back to the dark-ages, which they seem to hanker for. No computers or Internet there, so no issues!

Is Microsoft brewing a Win8, WinPho code merge?
'because you couldn't and wouldn't want to fit a general purpose PC operating system core into a phone.'
Since the vast majority of the mobile phone market is doing precisely this, it's entirely reasonable - iOS is using the same Mach/BSP kernel a Mac OS X (and a fair chunk of the user-space layers as well) and Android is using the Linux kernel. Clearly in both cases, some features are compiled out, and some of the drivers are different.
Also bear in mind that MS is already committed to supporting a number of ARM SoC devices in W8, so it seems highly likely that the would avoid duplicating this (considerable) effort across the NT and Windows CE kernels.
Apple stores getting close to overload
Careful recruitment
I suspect, the customer service is also down to the type of person employed in an Apple Store - they are clearly recruited for team-fit, and for individuality rather than being a black-trousers-shirt-and-tie sales drone.
Slight edgy looks are clearly encouraged. This is just simple psychology - when the staff in the store appear to have the same kind of lifestyle and values as their many of the customer-base, it's no surprise that they seem approachable and relaxed.
If you want another example of this effect on the British high-street - pop into a branch of Waitrose to spot staff who really enjoy their jobs and want to be there, rather than just collecting their salary and sales bonus at the end of the month.
Intel preps Thunderbolt docking tech for Ultrabooks
No. Apple already have a elegant solution shipping in products.
Their solution envisages the display as the docking station. The cable splits into two with a Magsafe power adaptor and Thunderbolt cable on the end.
This is considerably smaller - the laptop in any case needs both the Mag-safe and Thunderbolt/Mini-display port, so it consumes no additional real-estate.

"Set back from the main road, this villa feels like home, complete with cat, traditional furnishings, artworks and even musical instruments. We loved the outdoor bathroom and I really appreciated the various, fresh flower arrangements around the villa, all using plants from the garden. Great views from the upstairs bedroom balconies and plenty of flexibility in terms of number of guests and space, given the option to make use, or not, of the Lumbong. The 2 main bedrooms are large enough that an extra single mattress can be laid out on the floor if needed. It is a perfect location to enjoy the tranquillity Bali is so famous for, yet only a 5 minute ride to the centre of town and all the attractions Ubud has to offer. We watched the farmers planting rice right outside the villa and were able to enjoy ceremonial processions passing by en route to the temple. On our arrival, it was lovely to be greeted by Made and a tray of homemade ginger drinks - refreshing and delicious, and served with straws made of bamboo. Within no time at all motorbikes were organised on our behalf and we able to set off and explore! Hope very much to return one day."Guest: Annie Date of Stay: July 2014 Review Submitted: July 22, 2014View listing

Anyone been to Pulcinella on Henderson yet?

I know there's one in Katy. But, the Dallas restaurant just opened and I'm curious to see if anyone has tried it?
re: Dallas Alice
It's at Capitol and Henderson-- same shopping center as Fish City Grill, and across from Capitol Pub.
re: Dallas Alice
It's an Italian restaurant... supposed to have good pizza. Evidently it just opened in the last week or so.
re: Dallas Alice

re: Epicurious Esquire
Link to that Houston Chron review...
re: pizzaQTpie
I believe that the Pulcinella spot is open because the waitress we had at Capitol Pub said she was going there that night. But, there is definitely some construction going on. I think there is another restaurant opening in the building that Pulcinella's is in.
I had the pizza a couple days ago. It is thin crust. It was OK, but I'm going to have to give them a second chance because they weren't even officially open when they served me and they didn't have the full menu.
I'm gonna try to go for dinner in the next couple days - I'm hoping they'll have the full menu.
Anybody else been?
re: Epicurious Esquire
Haven't been yet. Trying to work it in. So, the pizza was just OK? Please report back if you go again...
re: margiehubbard
I guess I shoudl have said it was better than OK. Thin crust, somewhat crisp, fresh ingredients. But like I said, they were in the very preliminary stages when I ate there. Good enough to go back for a 2nd go-round. When I do, I'll report back.
re: Epicurious Esquire
Ok, here's my reply to my own post.
The pizza is MUCH, MUCH better than the first time I tried it. The oven, which I believe was imported from Italy, is firing much, much hotter than 2 weeks ago. The thin crust was slightly charred, crisp enough and is very light in texture.
In addition to the basic Margheria, I also had the Greco, which is toped with salty feta and roasted red peppers and finished with a honey drizzle. I thought the honey was a nice foil to the salty feta, and overall the pizza was very, very pleasing.
It provides a nice alternative to the gloppy, gut-busting pizza at Fireside.
I live in the M Streets and am VERY, VERY excited about the Shops on Henderson development. I'll definitely be back for more Pulcinella Pizza and I can't wait for Sushi Axiom to open.
That whole strip seems to be buzzing with electricity.
re: Epicurious Esquire
Great info! We'll have to go check it out. Are the prices fairly reasonable?
re: margiehubbard
Pizzas are $12-16, which I thought was reasonable.
This goes more to my lack of self-control than anything, but I like the fact that they are not huge, massive pizzas. For a guy with an appetite, a salad and a pizza would be a nice meal, leaving you satisfied but not completely stuffed.
re: Epicurious Esquire
Went for dinner tonight and can't say that I will be returning. From the looks of the menu online, I wasn't expecting much. It read like your standard suburban Italian restaurant. My wife is always in the mood for Italian and the restaurant is fairly close to us so we decided to check it out.
We each had one of their wood-fired pizzas. I did appreciate the thin charred crust but there was something missing. We also shared a salad that was good but nothing that would necessarily draw me back.
Overall, I would think about returning if I lived out in Katy and had few non-chain options. I just don't think the concept works quite as well with so many other restaurants nearby serving far better pizza.
re: Bhutani
My 2 cents: I wasn't expecting much from Pulcinella's, since I feel a little pizza-d out, but I was pretty pleasantly surprised. On my first visit, we got started with a margherita pizza. Like several other places around town, Pulicinella's touts itself as authentic Neopolitan pizza. Never been to Italy, so I can't vouch for it's authenticity, but it was good. The secret is in the sauce-- which wasn't overly sweet or tangy. Rather, it had a fresh bright taste that carried the entire pizza. The mozz was sparing-- silver dollar sized circles dotted each slice. The crust was thin, crisp, and perfect. Since they had comped us the pizza, I felt obligated to order an entree to follow. Chose the special of the day: penne a la vodka sauce. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the sauce was balanced. My friend had the eggplant soup, which she loved as well.
I immediately dragged yet another friend back last night, but had a moderately different experience. We had the salami pizza. There was a heftier portion of mozz, and there was something missing with the sauce. The pizza was crisp, but didn't reach the level of perfect texture they had achieved earlier in the week. It lacked the wow factor overall.
Still, Pulcinella's is putting out good product and is worth a visit.
I was stationed in Naples for two years, Cant believe the Pizza is the same, Only had the same in a small place in NY, the old guy was from Naples and the Pulcinela Salad was incredible,
My tumbs up !
Went this weekend to check this place out especially since it claims "real, authentic Neapolitan pizza! We were SOOOOO excited to go but left sorely disappointed. We tried the cannelloni and lasagna as well as the Margarita pizza. Didn't care for the cannelloni since it had chicken in it (which is not normally done. Ham is a better choice for this) The Lasagna was good. I like that it was not a compact, 100 layer piece that weights 10 lbs, rather it was "lighter and fluffier" with fewer layers. So we enjoyed that and THEN the not so real, not so authentic Neapolitan pizza came. The only thing that was passable on this pizza was the sauce - nice San Marzano tomato taste. The crust was not thin enough in the middle and not crispy enough around the edges - which is the way it is done in Naples. We also questioned whether or not they put Bufala mozzerella on the pizza or not. The waitress said this is what they use on the Margarita at Pulcinella. However, we think it may have been a local handmade mozzerella (which is not bad however, once again this is not an authentic Neapolitan thing to do). And lastly, the pizza was not finished off with a drizzle of olive oil upon being pulled out of the pizza oven. It was lacking in that flavor so much so, that we had to ask for a little side of olive oil just so we could drizzle it on ourselves and 'pretend' we were having a fantastic pie. Overall, for what we spent there, i would either A) go to Olivella's and have way better and more authentic Italian Pizza with a whole bottle of wine (we didn't even get a whole bottle and got out of there for way more than expected) or B) go to Coal Vines to have NY/Connecticut pizza, with a bottle or wine or C) go cheap and get really good bar pizza down the street at Louie's! It is such a shame that all of these new places in town are claiming Neapolitan pizza (hello Villa-O, you too!). Especially for all of you who have not had the pleasure of living or traveling to Naples and experiencing the real thing - that is just plain old false advertising.
re: Mr Pulcinella
I don't think the link is working.
In any case, i have a very clear understanding of a real Pizza Margarita. As i mentioned above...."The crust was not thin enough in the middle and not crispy enough around the edges - which is the way it is done in Naples". In addition, upon watching my local pizza guy every friday night when i lived in Naples, drizzling a tad bit of olive oil AFTER it comes out of the oven seems pretty standard in Italy. Maybe the Pizzaiola was off that night at Pulcinella? The pizza at Pulcinella is not bad, in fact it is tasty, but claiming to be 'authentic' seems to be such a trend these days to add to ones restaurant title.
I had been dying to try Pulcinella...but also left disappointed. The sauce was the best part about the pizza - I believe it is just simple crushed San Marzanos. I was there right when they opened on Sunday evening - so I don't think the oven was actually at the 800 degrees or so that you need to make real Neapolitan pizza. The crust was not good.
This is probably heresy, but the most authentic Neapolitan pizza I've had in Dallas is at Cavalli Pizza in Irving (www.cavallipizza.com). Yes I like it better than Olivella's - but it is in a strange location.
Drove by yesterday and saw some little yellow signs out that indicate Pulcinella is open for lunch.
Anybody been? Is there a special lunch menu?
Seems like the reviews here were this way and that. Anybody been lately for dinner? I went to The Capitol on Saturday and it seemed as if Pulcinella had a nice crowd.
I've got to get back to see for myself if they have worked out any of the kinks, but I thought maybe some of my fellow ChowHounders could fill me in first.
re: Epicurious Esquire
I stopped by today and had the pizza. It was awesome! So to answer your question, yes they are open and their is a special lunch menu. It's also cheaper to eat at lunch (i'm a penny pincher).

Cool. I still haven't gotten around to trying it. But, maybe I'll go at lunch since it's getting pretty mixed reviews. Then, if I don't like it, I haven't spent much to find out.
re: Fallonized
I wouldn't call it heresy. I live in Irving and discovered Cavalli's in a new strip mall near my house. They claim to be the only pizza joint in Texas certified by the Italian government. The 800 degree oven cooks the pizza in ab out 90 seconds once it is assembled. My family and I really enjoy the pizza. The owners and employees are extremely nice. I believe they were named in the Best of in D Magazine, so that seems to be increasing their business. Folks should stop by and visit them if they are around 635 and Belt Line Road. It's a don't miss place for sure.
Mediocre review in today's guidelive. I would have to agree with what the reviewer experienced. Really nothing too standout with this place.
re: Bhutani
We went there in the spring when they were still getting their feet wet. We need to give it another shot. Our experience was one of those nothing bad but nothing surprisingly amazing.
I wish them well but, I'm afraid I won't be back The "Italian" food was just, average at best.

The Holy Land Experience (thanks Sarahs Brain) - If you ever wanted to go to Disney World, but wished Mickey Mouse would get crucified several times a day, then you might be willing to give the Holy Land Experience a try. It doesn't have Mickey, but it's got another famous mascot: Jesus Christ.
It has all the sacred glory of the Bible transubstantiated into a log ride and gift shop, minus the log ride. Forgive me, but I am a firm believer in separation of church and theme park. I like my rides to be secular. Also I like there to be rides and not just dudes dressed in robes trying to talk to me about Jesus. I get enough of that at home.
In case you read my profile online and got excited, I wanted to clear up any misunderstandings.

The Oceans Get Their Day in Copenhagen
This is Jackie's seventh post from the Copenhagen climate conference. Read the others here. - Emily
One sore point in the Copenhagen process for some us is the lack of focus on our oceans. By raising ocean issues at every opportunity we hope to begin to remedy the historic lack of attention they have recieved. As the second week of the two-week meeting began, Oceana partnered with dozens of like-minded organizations to co-sponor an international "Oceans Day."
This was a full day of ocean advocates from around the world coming together to share infomration and strategize on how to bring the oceans closer to the center of debate. After all, the oceans are in big trouble, as we all know. If we don't put a halt to climate change, we will see continued ocean acidification, and threats to corals and many other species. This will lead to major disturbances in ocean ecosystems - and that will cost us all dearly. Tourism, fishery economies and storm protection will be lost. Billions of dollars per year - and that doesn't even start to count the impacts of sea level rise, melting sea ice, and other ocean impacts from climate change.
High level participants included Prince Albert II of Monaco, as well as many national ministers of marine affairs including the Marine Affairs Ministers from the Solomon Islands, the Seychelles, and Indonesia. NOAA Administrator Jane Lubchenco spoke to the group as well with a message about the importance of protecting marine ecosystems in the United States.
We heard from Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia, Korea, and more. A highlight was a presentation by Inuit leader Sheila Watt-Cloutier about the challenges to Alaska natives. And I was proud to have the opportunity to again work with top scientists to get the ocean acidification message on the table through yet another panel discussion featuring Oceana teamed with Scripps, Stanford, and Plymouth Marine Laboratory.
The whole event was pulled together by a team led by the Global Forum for Oceans and Coasts, teamed with the European Environment Bureau. They have our thanks and we hope that future UN Climate meetings will incorporate the oceans into their agendas even more.

Cheap ski holidays in hundreds of ski resorts worldwide.
The Kiwis certainly know how to clear snow in style!
The clip below shows a train charging along from Christchurch to Arthurs Pass earlier this month, with the heavy snowfall taking an absolute battering. National Rail could learn a thing or two from this — somehow I don't see "leaves on the track" causing too many delays after this!
Today's blog is bought to you by AJ, Iglu's Head of Sales and keenest après ski participant.
We're pretty keen on après ski action here at Iglu. So much so that it is one of the main factors that decides where we ski each season. We've even rated the best chalets for access to après ski. Some have great locations just a few stumbling steps from the best bars and some offer their own in-house bars that everyone else has to come to.
So, let's start with the best located chalet in everyone's favourite French resort, Val d'Isére.
The 5* Chalet Cherrier is slap bang in the middle of the action. I've stayed here and counted that it was only 16 paces from the front door to the Petit Danois bar. This is one of our early evening favourite bars with two pool tables and consistently hot Danish and Swedish bar staff. The rooms in the Cherrier are big and don't suffer from noise after 9 pm.
If your budget is more Carlsberg and KP nuts than Krug Champagne and Beluga caviar then you might want to be above one of the most iconic bars in Val d'Isére, by staying at the Chalet Hotel Morris. This chalet hotel couldn't be more convenient, but if you choose one of the rooms at the front with the sunny balconies, you will hear some noise. At least no one will complain if you're a little noisy yourself.
The most famous après ski resort of them all is St Anton and this next chalet is right amongst the fun.
You can ski directly to this chalet from your après session in the Mooserwirt or the Krazy Kangaruh and you are only a few minutes from the main pedestrian area of central St Anton. The Chalet Alpenheim has a few convenient single rooms and if you have a group of four, than make sure you book the junior suite with two rooms and a kitchenette on the top floor! Here it is really worth paying the extra for a sunny balcony with lovely views.
Italian resorts are usually fairly laid back about après ski but there are exceptions. Cervinia, which links over to Zermatt, has a few lively bars and the liveliest of them all is in the Chalet Dragon right on the slopes as you come down at the end of the day. This place gives Cervinia its aprèsphere.
The rooms in the Chalet Dragon are sectioned off in a separate wing so you don't get the noise of the bar. The chalet is also very well placed to appreciate all the other bars of Cervinia, being about 100m from the centre. The rooms in this chalet are large and this property was one of our biggest sellers last season, so get in early if you have a group.
The best party in Switzerland is undoubtedly in Verbier, and the Place Central is where it all happens.
Chalet Hotel De Verbier is so popular it's usually sold out for peak dates long before the season starts. It is directly opposite the best that Verbier has to offer and one the all-time classic après ski bars, the Farinet. Live music, potent shakers, a buzzing dance floor and a sliding roof that opens to let the steam out every couple of hours, come together to provide the ultimate Swiss après ski experience.
Courchevel is the famous name in the world's biggest ski area, but most people are put off by the prices of the extortionately flashy resort at 1850. To avoid the Ruskies and the €40 fondues, the UK market prefers to head to it's little brother just down the road in Courchevel 1650. The prices are better and the après is more convivial. This part of Les Trois Vallées is the most sun-facing and has the prettiest tree runs. Several of our most popular properties are in this resort like the Chalet Cascades and the Chalet Hotel Les Avals.
The Chalet Hotel Les Avals sleeps 70, so it's already got a ready-made party on most weeks. The chalet hotel also hosts the best après ski bar in resort, Rocky's. There is a live band on during après a couple of nights a week and it is well setup with TVs for any UK sport you may want to catch. Handy in February and March for the Six Nations rugby. It also does well priced snacks and lots of daily deals on shooters, shots, bombs and beers — as well as serving the legendary après ski beer, Mützig.
If you are looking for a bargain — with all the ingredients for a riotous week of partying — then look no further than the Club Hotel Les Airelles in Les Deux Alpes.
This property is cheap and cheerful so don't expect The Ritz. This club hotel has hosted the Iglu April ski trip for the last three years and has never failed to deliver a good time. Our crew are mostly mid-twenties ex-seasonaires that like a party almost as much as deep powder.
Les Deux Alpes attracts a young crowd and is heavily favoured by boarders who appreciate the excellent terrain park. We love the super short transfer from Grenoble, the access to La Grave over the top of the glacier, the cheap bars, the €60 helicopter day trip to Alpe d'Huez, and the reliable snow above 2500m.
And finally, here's a property that is the best placed in the Ibiza of the Pyrenees, Pas de la Casa.
Llac Negre is right in the centre of the main drag of Pas de la Casa. The town rocks all night and has plenty of great bars including the one in this hotel. The prices are great due to Andorra being a tax free principality. The resort is also at 2000m making it one of the highest in Europe. There has been lots of investment in the lift system of the Granvalira ski area and it now compares favourably with the big French resorts of the Tarantaise Vallée.
This is only a short list of some of our favourites but we have loads more to recommend for après ski action.
Teton Gravity Research, the Jackson Hole based ski film company, have launched an open source freeskiing project, The Co-Lab, where the next generation of athletes and filmers have the chance to win $100,000.
The collaborative competition gives budding young athletes and film makers the chance to make the most of the great, affordable HD cameras on offer these days — well, that's if they can get one — the latest GoPro appears to be sold out everywhere! The next generation of pros are invited to upload their segments throughout next season to TetonGravity.com, where users can vote for edits. An outside panel of industry experts will then pick the winning entry.
The best and most popular edit will be put together to make a collaborative film, hence the C-Lab name, which TGR will release and the out-and-out winner will walk away with $100,000. This entire concept is a fantastic idea as the competition is open world wide and gives credence to both the riders and film makers.
With those behind the lens set to gain as much as any young guns looking for their first sponsorship deals, the Co-Lab comp could bring us the next Tim & Gendle (Lockdown Projects), Damian Doyle (Standing Sideways) or Dave Benedek (Robot Food).
TGR's Co-Founders Todd Jones & Steve Jones introducing The Co-Lab.
Over the years, Teton Gravity Research have bought us some of the most stunning and innovative ski and snowboard films to hit the market. Jeremy Jones three parter Deeper, Further, Higher is a particular favourite of mine, with part two — Further — set for release this autumn. TGR have worked with camera men from both sides of the Atlantic, including British photographer Dan Milner.

If you love talking with people and giving them your honest opinion about beauty products, then this is a great company to do that with. Low start up cost ($10) compared to other beauty product companies.Cons
Fees, Fees, Fees!!! Each campaign you have fees for submitting orders, fees to order books (Which is your only way to get the product out there) fees for samples, fees if you're late, fees to ship back returns.....AVON makes most of it's money off the independent sales reps - not customers!Advice to ManagementAdvice
Stop with all the FEES! Also, understand the market that you're in, and what competitors are in the area, such as Mary Kay, Arbon and whatever else.RecommendsNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEO
