Leith, Scotland
One of the world's stateliest cities and proudest capitals, Edinburgh is built-like Rome-on seven hills, making it a striking backdrop for the ancient pageant of history. In a skyline of sheer drama, Edinburgh Castle watches over the capital city, frowning down on Princes Street as if disapproving of its modern razzmatazz. Nearly everywhere in Edinburgh (the "-burgh" is always pronounced burra in Scotland) there are spectacular buildings, whose Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian pillars add touches of neoclassical grandeur to the largely Presbyterian backdrop. The city is justly proud of its gardens, green lungs that bring a sense of release to frenetic modern life. Conspicuous from Princes Street is Arthur's Seat, a child-size mountain with steep slopes and little crags, like a miniature Highlands set down in the middle of the busy city. Appropriately, these theatrical elements match Edinburgh's character-after all, the city has been a stage that has seen its fair share of romance, violence, tragedy, and triumph.
Calton Hill. Robert Louis Stevenson's favorite view of his beloved city was from the top of this hill. The architectural styles represented by the extraordinary collection of monuments here include mock Gothic-the Old Observatory, for example-and neoclassical. Under the latter category falls the monument by William Playfair (1789-1857) designed to honor his talented uncle, the geologist and mathematician John Playfair (1748-1819), as well as his cruciform New Observatory. The piece that commands the most attention, however, is the so-called National Monument, often referred to as "Scotland's Disgrace." Intended to mimic Athens's Parthenon, this monument to the dead of the Napoleonic Wars was started in 1822. But in 1830, only 12 columns later, money ran out, and the facade became a monument to high aspirations and poor fund-raising. The tallest monument on Calton Hill is the 100-foot-high Nelson Monument, completed in 1815 in honor of Britain's naval hero Horatio Nelson (1758-1805); you can climb its 143 steps for sweeping city views. The Burns Monument is the circular Corinthian temple below Regent Road. Devotees of Robert Burns may want to visit one other grave-that of Mrs. Agnes McLehose, or "Clarinda," in the Canongate Graveyard. Bounded by Leith St. to the west and Regent Rd. to the south, New Town. Admission charged.
Charlotte Square. At the west end of George Street is the New Town's centerpiece-an 18th-century square with one of the proudest achievements of Robert Adam, Scotland's noted neoclassical architect. On the north side, Adam designed a palatial facade to unite three separate town houses of such sublime simplicity and perfect proportions that architects come from all over the world to study it. Happily, the Age of Enlightenment grace notes continue within, as the center town house is now occupied by the Georgian House museum, and to the west stands West Register House. West end of George St., New Town.
Edinburgh Castle. The crowning glory of the Scottish capital, Edinburgh Castle is popular not only because it's the symbolic heart of Scotland but also because of the views from its battlements: on a clear day the vistas-stretching to the "kingdom" of Fife-are breathtaking. There's so much to see that you need at least three hours to do the site justice, especially if you're interested in military sites.
Heading over the drawbridge and through the gatehouse, past the guards, you can find the rough stone walls of the Half-Moon Battery, where the one-o'clock gun is fired every day. Climb up through a second gateway and you come to the oldest surviving building in the complex, the tiny 11th-century St. Margaret's Chapel, named in honor of Saxon queen Margaret (1046-93), who had persuaded her husband, King Malcolm III (circa 1031-93), to move his court from Dunfermline to Edinburgh. Edinburgh's environs-the Lothians-were occupied by Anglian settlers with whom the queen felt more at home, or so the story goes (Dunfermline was surrounded by Celts). The Crown Room, a must-see, contains the "Honours of Scotland"-the crown, scepter, and sword that once graced the Scottish monarch. Upon the Stone of Scone, also in the Crown Room, Scottish monarchs once sat to be crowned. In the section now called Queen Mary's Apartments, Mary, Queen of Scots, gave birth to James VI of Scotland. The Great Hall displays arms and armor under an impressive vaulted, beamed ceiling. Scottish parliament meetings were conducted here until 1840.
Military features of interest include the Scottish National War Memorial, the Scottish United Services Museum, and the famous 15th-century Belgian-made cannon Mons Meg. This enormous piece of artillery has been silent since 1682, when it exploded while firing a salute for the duke of York; it now stands in an ancient hall behind the Half-Moon Battery. Contrary to what you may hear from locals, it's not Mons Meg but the battery's gun that goes off with a bang every weekday at 1 pm, frightening visitors and reminding Edinburghers to check their watches. Castle Esplanade and Castlehill, Old Town. Admission charged.
High Kirk of St. Giles. Sometimes called St. Giles's Cathedral, this is one of the city's principal churches. However, anyone expecting a rival to Paris's Notre Dame or London's Westminster Abbey will be disappointed: St. Giles is more like a large parish church than a great European cathedral. There has been a church here since AD 854, although most of the present structure dates from either 1120 or 1829, when the church was restored. The tower, with its stone crown towering 161 feet above the ground, was completed between 1495 and 1500. The most elaborate feature is the Chapel of the Order of the Thistle, built onto the southeast corner of the church in 1911 for the exclusive use of Scotland's only chivalric order, the Most Ancient and Noble Order of the Thistle. It bears the belligerent national motto "nemo me impune lacessit" ("No one provokes me with impunity"). Inside the church stands a life-size statue of the Scot whose spirit still dominates the place-the great religious reformer and preacher John Knox, before whose zeal all of Scotland once trembled. The church lies about one-third of the way along the Royal Mile from Edinburgh Castle. High St., Old Town. Admission charged.
National Gallery of Scotland. Opened to the public in 1859, the National Gallery presents a wide selection of paintings from the Renaissance to the postimpressionist period within a grand neoclassical building designed by William Playfair. Most famous are the old master paintings bequeathed by the Duke of Sutherland, including Titian's Three Ages of Man. Many masters are here; works by Velázquez, El Greco, Rembrandt, Goya, Poussin, Turner, Degas, Monet, and Van Gogh, among others, complement a fine collection of Scottish art, including Sir Henry Raeburn's Reverend Robert Walker Skating on Duddingston Loch and other works by Ramsay, Raeburn, and Wilkie. The Weston Link connects the National Gallery of Scotland to the Royal Scottish Academy and provides expanded gallery space as well as a restaurant, bar, café, shop, and information center. The Mound, New Town.
National Museum of Scotland. This museum traces the country's fascinating story from the oldest fossils to the most recent popular culture, making it a must-see for first-time visitors to Scotland or anyone interested in history. One of the most famous treasures is the Lewis Chessmen, 11 intricately carved ivory chess pieces found in the 19th century on one of Scotland's Western Isles: other pieces are in London's British Museum. Other highlights include the hanging hippo and sea creatures of the Wildlife Panorama, a life-size skeleton cast of a Tyrannosaurus rex, Viking brooches, Pictish stones, Jacobite relics, the Stevenson family's inventions, including lighthouse optics, and Queen Mary's clarsach (harp). All this is free, but donations are welcomed to help renovate 11 other galleries. Chambers St., Old Town.
Palace of Holyroodhouse. Once the haunt of Mary, Queen of Scots, and the setting for high drama-including at least one notorious murder, several major fires, and centuries of the colorful lifestyles of larger-than-life, power-hungry personalities-this is now Queen Elizabeth's official residence in Scotland. A doughty and impressive palace standing at the foot of the Royal Mile in a hilly public park, it's built around a graceful, lawned central court at the end of Canongate. When the queen or royal family is not in residence, you can take a tour. The free audio guide is excellent. There's plenty to see here, so make sure you have at least two hours to tour the palace, gardens (in summer), and the ruins of the 12th-century abbey. The King James Tower is the oldest surviving section, containing the rooms of Mary, Queen of Scots, on the second floor, and Lord Darnley's rooms below. Though much has been altered, there are fine fireplaces, paneling, plasterwork, tapestries, and 18th- and 19th-century furnishings throughout. The Queen's Gallery, in a former church and school at the entrance to the palace, holds rotating exhibits from the Royal Collection; there's a separate admission charge.
Behind the palace lie the open grounds and looming crags of Holyrood Park, the hunting ground of early Scottish kings. From the top of Edinburgh's mini mountain, Arthur's Seat (822 feet), views are breathtaking. Abbey Strand, Old Town. Admission charged.
Royal Scottish Academy. The William Playfair-designed academy hosts temporary art exhibitions (Monet paintings, for example), but is also worth visiting for a look at the imposing, neoclassic architecture. The underground Weston Link connects the museum to the National Gallery of Scotland. The Mound, New Town.
Scottish National Portrait Gallery. A magnificent red-sandstone Gothic building dating from 1889 houses this must-see institution. The recently revamped gallery is organized under five broad themes: Reformation, Enlightenment, Empire, Modernity, and Contemporary. The refurbished complex features a photography gallery, a gallery for contemporary art, and a fancy glass elevator. New spaces hold exhibits on various aspects of Scots history and life, including The Visual Culture of the Jacobite Cause and Playing for Scotland: The Making of Modern Sport. 1 Queen St., New Town.
Despite its renown as a shopping street, Princes Street in the New Town disappoints some with its dull, anonymous modern architecture, average chain stores, and fast-food outlets. It is, however, one of the best spots to shop for tartans, tweeds, and knitwear. One block north of Princes Street, Rose Street has many smaller specialty shops; part of the street is a pedestrian zone, so it's a pleasant place to browse.
The streets crossing George Street-Hanover, Frederick, and Castle-are also worth exploring. Dundas Street, the northern extension of Hanover Street, beyond Queen Street Gardens, has several antiques shops. Thistle Street, originally George Street's "back lane," or service area, has several boutiques and more antiques shops. Stafford and William streets form an upscale shopping area in a Georgian setting.
As may be expected, many shops along the Royal Mile sell what may be politely or euphemistically described as tourist ware-whiskies, tartans, and tweeds. Careful exploration, however, will uncover some worthwhile establishments. Shops here also cater to highly specialized interests and hobbies. Close to the castle end of the Royal Mile, just off George IV Bridge, is Victoria Street, with specialty shops grouped in a small area. Follow the tiny West Bow to Grassmarket for more specialty stores.

Russian label Irfe, founded by exiled aristocrats, rises from its ashes at couture week in Paris

The Associated Press
PARIS — The history of Russian fashion label Irfe reads like a rollicking best-seller, but for designer Olga Sorokina, it's a fairy tale come true.
Almost eight decades after the original house of Irfe shuttered its doors, Sorokina presented her first collection for the label during couture week in Paris, with the hope of restoring it to its former glory.
Models paraded on the steps of the Palais de Tokyo contemporary art museum in bias-cut silk gowns and rich astrakhan fur jackets inspired by the sleek fashions of the 1920s and 1930s.
"The story of this house is a part of Russia's history and heritage," Sorokina, speaking through an interpreter, told reporters at the presentation late on Monday.
Founded in Paris in 1924 by Prince Felix Yusupov and his wife, Irina, the niece of the last Russian Czar Nicholas II, Irfe rapidly conquered a following amid chic European and American customers who were dazzled by its aristocratic founders.
The fact that Yusupov had played a part in the murder of the self-declared holy man Rasputin at his family palace in St. Petersburg added a frisson of excitement.
But the prince had little business sense, and two years after the 1929 Wall Street crash ruined his most prosperous clients, Yusupov was forced to shutter Irfe.
Only two of the house's original creations survive, as many American clients used to clip the labels out of the dresses they bought in Paris in the hope of evading customs duties.
Sorokina said she was drawn to the label after reading "Beauty in Exile," fashion historian's Alexandre Vassiliev's account of the artists, models and nobility who fled the Russian Revolution and influenced the world of fashion.
She contacted Xenia Sphiris, the granddaughter of the founders, who agreed to relaunch the brand.
"We thought about it and we talked about it and the idea was fantastic, and I know that my grandparents loved that house," Sphiris, who was born Sheremeteva, told The Associated Press.
She said the label was financially backed by Russian businessman Andrei Strukov, but Strukov declined to comment on his involvement or to detail the shareholder structure of the new firm.
The relaunch of Irfe is testament to the growing purchasing power of Russia's new rich, who have joined the exclusive coterie of haute couture clients in recent years.
Sorokina, a 23-year-old former model from Belarus, is riding on the coattails of this meteoric rise.
She confessed she was nervous presenting her creations in Paris, where prestigious houses like Chanel and Christian Dior are unveiling their latest made-to-measure creations to wealthy clients this week. Nonetheless, she was confident of making her mark.
"Paris is definitely still the capital of fashion, but in a few years Russian designers will break out in the international market," predicted Sorokina, who was dressed in a closefitting cream silk trouser suit of her own design.
Irfe has bold plans for a fledgling firm. It expects to open its first store on Moscow's exclusive Stoleshnikov Lane this winter, with further shops planned in Paris, Milan and New York.
Irfe also plans to introduce a perfume range and a line of jewelry based on the legendary jewels of the Yusupov, Sheremetev and Romanov families.

) received a huge blow when the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) declined to approve the company's supplemental new drug
application (sNDA) for Feraheme in the present form and issued a
complete response letter (CRL). AMAG's shares skid more than 4.5%
on the news.
AMAG is looking to get Feraheme's label expanded as an
intravenous (IV) use for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia
(IDA) in all adults suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD)
with a history of unsuccessful oral iron therapy.
The FDA, while issuing the CRL stated that the information
provided by AMAG was insufficient to support the approval of the
additional indication. The U.S. regulatory body has asked AMAG to
conduct additional clinical trials for the broader indication.
The primary composite safety endpoints of these trials should be
serious hypersensitivity/anaphylaxis, cardiovascular events and
Moreover, the FDA recommended the company to evaluate
alternative dosing and/or administration of Feraheme. AMAG
intends to work closely with the FDA to decide on the future
course of action.
We are extremely disappointed with the news. The CRL will further
delay the approval of Feraheme in the broader indication.
Moreover, conducting additional trials will lead to a surge in
the company's operating expenses. We expect investor focus to
stay on how the company deals with the setback.
Feraheme is currently approved as an injectable drug for
intravenous use as iron replacement therapy for the treatment of

Made in Germany. Kits may require assembly. Figures are not included.
The Roundhouse was a hallmark of steam-era railroading, and some of these classics are still used today. No matter the weather, workers could easily inspect and service locos under cover. Size was based on the number of engines coming and going in any 24-hour period, with the busiest terminals requiring full-circle roundhouses. Our authentic American model includes three stalls on 10-degree centers to make the most of your available space like the prototype. And with a modular design, you can add as many stalls as your railroad requires using the Modern Roundhouse Add-On Stalls (933-2901, sold separately). For more realism, interior and exterior brick wall details, fine windows, floor inspection pits and much more are all standard. Locos up to 125 scale feet long fit easily inside and parts for a single 145' long stall are also included.
Though engines started getting bigger early in the 20th century, no one could foresee the monsters that were in regular service by the 1940s. These locos required equally large servicing areas, so some roads simply added and extended a few roundhouse stalls to handle them. This conversion kit adds three matching stalls to the Modern Roundhouse (933-2900, sold separately). With additional kits, you can expand the basic building to any size your railroad requires. Engines up to 125' fit easily inside, and parts to build a single 145' long stall are included - big enough to hold a Big Boy.
While most roads had one major backshop, making repairs at outlying terminals was soon shown to be faster and more cost-effective. As new engine terminals were built, most received a machine shop capable of handling just about any type of repair that might be needed. This kit matches the design of the Modern Roundhouse (933-2900, sold separately), and can be built as an attached or freestanding building. It also includes a boiler house, which would supply steam, electricity and compressed air to the entire facility. Large roll-up doors can be built open or closed, and the baseplate has slots that accept popular rail sizes.
No. 76 is running late today and its engineer, Floyd, is trying to make up time. Fireman Charley is working nonstop, heaving shovel after shovel of coal into the firebox to keep the 2-6-2 Prairie traveling at 60 mph over the Kansas plains. Just outside of Lawrence they roll to a stop to refill the nearly empty tender. As soon as Floyd jockeys the locomotive into position, Charley climbs up and grabs the dangling chain and a fresh load of coal tumbles down the chute into the tender. Echoing off the steel chamber, it sounds like a stampeding herd of the buffalo once common on the plains. When the tender is full, another yank on the chain sends the chute back up to its resting place, ready for the next hungry locomotive. Floyd releases a burst of steam and the engine chugs up the track to take on water and sand. The rest stop is short and soon No. 76 is back on track and back on time.
All of the prototype details are there, including the traditional two-level roof, with separate clerestory windows and smokejacks, plus 23 large windows for natural lighting. It holds engines up to 13" long, typical of the power found on most lines. Stalls are spaced on 10-degree angle, requiring less approach trackage. With its modular design, the basic 3-stall kit can be enlarged up to a full circle to meet the needs of your railroads. To finish the scene, install the 90' Motorized Turntable to serve your new Roundhouse.
Perfect for use in loco servicing scenes, roundhouses, engine houses and more. Includes pit, Code 83 rail and details.

Rep. Jim Ward is a Wichita Democrat whose party loyalty has rarely been questioned, but even he says his party is likely to pick up only a few House seats in next week's election.
But he said a few Democratic victories coupled with a few more by Republican moderates might be enough to swing the chamber currently controlled by conservative Republicans more toward the middle.

Movie review
Nick Nolte stands out in shoddy "Mysteries of Pittsburgh"
"The Mysteries of Pittsburgh" is an underdeveloped adaptation of a Michael Chabon novel about a naive boy-man navigating his way to adulthood. Nick Nolte, playing his father, is easily the best part of the film.
Special to The Seattle Times
"The Mysteries of Pittsburgh,"with Nick Nolte, Jon Foster, Sienna Miller, Peter Sarsgaard, Mena Suvari. Written and directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber. 96 minutes. Rated R for language, violence, nudity. Varsity.
Latest from our new movies blog

Harvey Pekar, R.I.P. NEW - 7/12, 10:32 AM
Waiting for "Inception" NEW - 7/09, 12:15 PM
Shoddy and never credible, "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh" is an ungainly coming-of-age drama based on a (hopefully much better) novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Michael Chabon.
A familiar cast including Nick Nolte, Peter Sarsgaard, Mena Suvari and Sienna Miller help brighten the story's clichés about a naive boy-man navigating his way to adulthood through a crowd of rogues, a despotic parent, a neurotic lover and an elusive blonde. But even interesting actors can't keep "Mysteries" from descending into self- parody and confusion.
Nolte is easily the best part of the film, playing an organized-crime lord named Bechstein who is also the solicitous if impatient father of the diffident Art (Jon Foster of "The Door in the Floor"). Nolte does much with his character's brief and intermittent appearances, exploring the jagged edges between Bechstein's limited capacity to love, stormy temperament and tragic secrecy.
Meeting with a morose, taciturn Art over monthly steak dinners in a classy restaurant, Bechstein quiets the dining room one night by loudly ordering his son — displaying a rare if unsuccessful glimmer of independence — to take his seat. It's writer- director Rawson Marshall Thurber's clearest and most authentic relationship scene.
Alas, Bechstein vanishes for long stretches while Art spends his post-college summer avoiding a clinging girlfriend (Suvari in a thankless role) while becoming involved with a charming, cynical, bisexual and utterly underwritten thug named Cleveland (Sarsgaard).
Cleveland's girlfriend, Jane (Miller), makes a soulful if largely wished-for connection with the hapless Art that endures through her days of boozy dissoluteness (which somehow don't interfere with her rising career as an accomplished violinist).
An early scene set in a music club has, at least for a minute or two, an attractive impulsiveness, hinting we may be in for a "Jules et Jim"-like love triangle that reflects changing personal experiences over time. In fact, that does happen in "Mysteries," but in a very compressed and inchoate way, built around one bore (Art), one poorly conceived echo of a young man's feminine ideal (Jane), and one rather by-the-numbers rebel with a perfunctory and inexplicable death wish (Cleveland).

For week around 11th November. 2014 the Academy student leadership team, with other students organised various activities to help focus our minds upon those who fell in war. The assembly for all houses included singing by the Year 7 choir, poems read by a group of students, a video made by a Queensbury student and a talk by the Academy Principal.
Each student was issued with a red ribbon, upon which they wrote personal sentiments. These were affixed to wooden stakes which were hammered into the ground during very moving house ceremonies, at the end of which the Last Post was played.
OFSTED Success
Following our recent OFSTED inspection, Queensbury Academy has been recognised as a good school and one which is rapidly moving towards becoming outstanding. We were graded as "good" for all of the OFSTED categories specifically:
• Overall effectiveness
• The achievement of pupils
• The quality of teaching
• The behaviour and safety of pupils
• Leadership and management
The OFSTED report can be viewed by clicking on this link
Places may still be available for Year 7 and Year 9 students starting September 2015. If you missed our open evenings and would like a personal tour of the Academy for you and your child, please contact us on: firstname.lastname@example.com or telephone us on 01582 601241

Summer 2014 Results
We are delighted to report that our Sixth Formers achieved a really impressive set of A-level results building on the strong performance of last year. Particularly pleasing was a 30% rise in the proportion of students passing 3 or more A-levels with 12% of our students achieving at least two grade As and a grade B, enabling them access to the best universities in the country.
We are equally pleased with the Year 11 results. The proportion of students achieving five or more GCSE pass grades has increased to 95%. Despite the challenging national picture, we are proud that our English results rose significantly with 69% of our students achieving A*-C and an impressive 76% making expected progress.
All of these results reflect the hard work and commitment to high standards of all our students and staff, recognised by Ofsted during our recent "good" inspection, and are an important step towards becoming an outstanding school. .
Congratulations to them all

Five Famous Female FrontwomenThese women rule
Progressive's Flo, 5 Years Old
Let's admit this much: Nobody really likes insurance companies. Which is what has made Progressive's fictitious customer service rep Flo such an unlikely phenom. Sassy but smart, Flo (played by actress Stephanie Courtney) has starred in 75 TV spots and has 5 million Facebook fans. Her popularity is equal parts marketing and metaphysics. To hear CMO Jeff Charney tell it, Flo was born of the quest of "making something intangible—insurance—into the tangible." Of course, Geico's Cavemen did that, too. But Flo's a nice girl, someone you might want to hang out with, and that's the difference. "We knew customers would relate to Flo," Charney says, "because people can see themselves in her."

Lebanese Army soldiers prepare to deploy toward Arsal, a predominantly Sunni Muslim town near the Syrian border in eastern Lebanon, Monday, Aug. 4, 2014. (AP Photo/Bilal Hussein)
BEIRUT: The Lebanese Army said Friday that it arrested a Lebanese citizen and two Syrians for their suspected involvement in the deadly gunbattles earlier this month in the northeastern border town of Arsal.
In a statement, the Army identified the detainees as Mohammad Deeb Karnabi, a Lebanese, and Syrian nationals Mohammad Abdul-Sattar Akouk and Abdulla Mohammad Akouk.
Karnabi was driving a pickup truck with no papers when he was stopped at a Lebanese Army checkpoint near Arsal's infirmary at 8:30 pm Thursday, the statement said.
It said a handgun and ammunition belonging to it were seized from the Hyundai pickup truck.
The two Syrians in Karnabi's company were also arrested in connection with the five-day clashes in Arsal between Islamist militants and the Lebanese Army earlier in August, the Army said.
It said the suspects were handed over to the relevant authorities.

Some of the most famous supermodels from the 1990s are now into their 40s and look better than ever. So is their beauty due to good genes, good docs, hard work -- or yoga?!
Well, it appears that two of the women mentioned in Fox News story "Ageless Supermodels" hit the yoga mat.
Fox reports that Cindy Crawford, 45 (pictured), incorporates yoga into her workouts which also include hiking and weights. Cindy goes on to say, "I don't think aging is fun for anyone and watching those changes, but that's why it's important to have balance in your life and other things that you're focused on."
The other former supermodel mentioned in the article is Christy Turlington, 42. In addition to being a serious yogi (she'll be speaking at the Yoga Journal Conference with our friends Elena Brower and Seane Corn), Christy is serious about doing good. Her foundation and film No Woman, No Cry has been making waves as it's raising consciousness about maternal mortality during childbirth.

"Lucrative Concept"
Jeannette covers a topic that's known by the few. My hat is off to her for letting this lucrative secret out that many internet entrepreneurs know and use everyday. All I can say is, "Some people will get it and some won't." If a person wants to walk away from their job for good and become a full-time, online entrepreneur, take heed.
Thanks Jeannette

I am very pleased with my purchase. The valances look great in my family room. Very well made.
Perfect for what I wanted.
I am very pleased with this purchase. I was somewhat hestitate when ordering because of the price. They are well made and good quality. I ordered the chili and it is the perfect color. The color is very accurate to the color shown.
Love these curtains. Very inexpensive but do not look it! Color was very close to what it looked like on-line. Would purchase again!
The color is great and the subtle stripe is just what I was looking for.

As more shoppers head online, small retailers are following them, while making sure brick-and-mortar stores stay relevant with unique experiences and special events.
There may be hope yet for the NFL. This was shown Tuesday with a decision by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell to get serious about the league's personal conduct policy — apparently still a work in progress — and suspend Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson for the remainder of the National Football League season.
It will be somewhat inconvenient if Sandoval leaves San Francisco. 'Somewhat inconvenient' does not ascend to the level of 'devastating' or 'revolting' or tragic.
Placing a cornucopia basket in the center of your table makes a powerful and luscious statement, both visually and symbolically.
The Green Music Center in Rohnert Park and the Wells Fargo Center in Santa Rosa have made sure you'll have lots of opportunity for holiday cheer.

Byd bach (Small world)
Yesterday I met some Russians who are in Bangor for Celtic-Slavic language conference. They both speak Welsh and one of them teaches Welsh in Moscow. We got chatting, mainly in Welsh, and it turned out that they know friends of mine who are studying or doing research in Aberystwyth, and they also know Russians I […]

The word interesting can have a variety of meanings, depending on how you say it and the context in which you use it. At least it does in British English. The basic definition is "inspiring interest; absorbing" [source]. It comes from the noun interest (legal claim or right; concern; benefit, advantage), from the Anglo-French interesse […]

Churches and Cells
Today I discovered that the Welsh word llan (church, parish), which is used mainly in place names, such as Llanfairpwllgwyngyll, has cognates in the other Celtic languages: lann in Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Cornish and Manx, and lan in Breton. These words all come from the Proto-Indo-European root *lendʰ- (land, heath) [source]. Another word church-related word […]

I spent yesterday in Harlech [ˈharlɛx] with a friend looking round the castle, exploring the village and wandering along the beach. We wondered where the name Harlech comes from, so I thought I'd find out.

Blackberries and Walls
The French words mur (wall) mûr (ripe; mature) and mûre (blackberry; mulberry) are written differently but pronounced the same – [myʁ], so are only distinguished by context in speech.

Differently polite
I discovered the other day that in Chinese families it is considered impolite to say the equivalents of please and thank you, as this is seen as distancing yourself from other members of the family, so within a family such words are apparently rarely used. Is this correct? Does it vary between families? Although I […]

When is a language not a language?
One perennial problem in linguistics is how to decide whether a language is a language or dialect. In the fascinating book, Speak: A Short History of Languages, which I read recently, Tore Janson argues that a language can be considered a language when those who speak it decide that it is one, and they give […]

First day of Class
... first night and I fell in love with the traditional Irish music, and once he played the song from the movie "P.S. I Love You," it was game over, I belong in Dublin. It also didn't hurt that I got a pint of Guinness and actually enjoyed it, definitely better than the bottle!
After a night out, we ventured to Farmer Brown's for brunch, a cute little hole in the wall that was recommended by a local. Of course I had to get something unusual on the menu... ...
Hurling at Croke Park
... vocally. We had Irish hotdogs and chips in our seats before the game began, but if we wanted a beer, we would have had to stand in the concourse and drink it, as no alcohol is allowed in the seating areas. So, we skipped the beers as the game moved so fast, you didn't want to miss it. No one left their seat during the game, but at halftime there was a mad rush for the bathrooms and bars. Everyone was seated again when the second half started. Hurling ...
Ireland is like full of old stone things so
... D has a bunch of her own dogs, and minds a bunch of dogs as well, so I was in seventh heaven. She had a dog Oddie that was a light version of my own Dusty. They are so much alike it was crazy. I was in love. D made us a tasty pizza dinner with a yummy salad. Much alcohol was consumed.
We caught the hop on/off bus the next day, stopping at Finbars Cathedral, English Market, Butter Museum and the Shandon bells. The market had some great fresh produce, ...
A big day out in Dublin....
... s beautiful wife, Nodlaig. Sadly Lily is not in good form tonight, so just a quick cuddle and she is off back home. I have attached a photo of Lily, she is very very cute.
After a few more Guinness's we have to say good night to Irish after a great catch up, we have to be up at 5.30am for an early get away from Dublin and on the first Ferry heading for Wales first thing tomorrow. A great time in ...

We stopped for lunch at the town of Tipperary, which was a real eye opener. A very old fashioned place, with smelly youths loitering, unmarried mothers, farmers down from the hills, and the aroma of manure in the air. On the positive side, we had lunch at a cafe where the chef made Terry custard to ...
