My kids were so happy to get this - it couldn't go into the DVD player fast enough! Great quality picture and sound. Timeless classic from even before my generation.
I grew up with this Christmas classic and seeing it once during the holidays was not enough. My family watched Charlie Brown's Christmas over four times this year and each time was just as special as the first. You cannot go wrong with purchasing your own copy to enjoy with your family.
I am so excited to finally have this movie, though it is played on TV during the holidays, I don't always get to see it, so I decided to buy it, this is such a sweet story, it always makes me smile.
Charlie Brown Christmas is a great movie and wonderful classic. Our family loves it.

The tetchy world of online advertising has mirrored its offline godfathers quite amicably, although many different 'unwritten rules' have evolved over the life of online marketing. To bring the current state of online advertising abreast for the layman, we bring you this brief tutorial which lays the foundation of online marketing, exposes the components within the realm, and how things are tracked.
Take notes if you feel compelled.
The concept of online advertising
There are many options available for businesses when marketing online, yet the basic concept involves displaying an advertising to potential clients, whether in an email, in text format, image format, animated format or video format. Before launching an advertising campaign, it is necessary to create the required advertisements. Recently, computer giant IBM claims to have patented online advertising which really doesn't matter since, of course, IBM doesn't sell such services.
Advertising creation is another completely different facade in itself, and therefore this subject will also need to be analyzed in another article. Each advertising platform holds different formats of advertising; for example, search engines such as Google do not display image based advertising on their search engine, and so text based advertising must be used with Google.
Advertising formats
Online advertising, like offline messages, come in many different shapes and sizes; a list and explanation is given below:
- Plain Text – These are typically found on search engines, they are made up often of up to 30 words.
- Animated Images – These come in various shapes and sizes, and are made up of a number of different slides, providing an animated effect.
- Rich HTML – These are advertising that have a form within them, for example, the advertising could say "enter your age and click here". The data the user then entered is then utilized on the landing page of the advertising.
- Video Advertising – These have become more popular on the internet since broadband (high speed) internet became available. They come in two formats, either as a fairly small advertising type video or as a trailer to another video, such as a trailer before a video on YouTube.
Targeting methods in online advertising
Online advertising offers some unique tools compared to offline advertising, these types of targeting of users are outlined below:
- Non-Targeted – These are online advertising methods which do not have any specific audience and are shown to random people. This is the cheapest form of advertising. Much of this advertising used to be in the form of "pop up" advertisings. This form of advertising has now subsided after much protection build into web browsers, however, it is still available.
- Keyword Targeted – Keyword targeting is when online advertising is displayed when a user searches using a word (Keyword). This is often in a search engine such as Google although it sometimes is available through other methods such as though a search facility on a website, such as a music website. This is rated as one of the best methods of advertising as an advertising can target users based on what they are searching for. For example, the search engine displays an advertising for a logo design company when a user searches using the keyword "logo design". This is clearly a more effective method of delivering ads instead of just showing a random advertising that the user is likely to have no interest in.
- Content Based – Content based advertisements are ads targeted based upon the website content. The primary provider of this technology is Google via its AdSense program. This allows website owners to place a few lines of code onto their website and Google's AdSense system will automatically add and track relevant advertisements to the user's website. For example, should the website be about football, football advertisements related to football products will be displayed.
- Interest Based – Interest based results is a popular technology on social networking websites such as Facebook. When users setup their account they set information such as their hobbies and interests. This information is then utilized by Facebook to offer advertising pros the opportunity to target users with interests such as "swimming" or "Cycling". Additionally the facilities can be utilized to target users based upon demographics such as their age, gender, or location and education level.
One of the best features of online advertising is the extensive tracking abilities for advertising campaigns. What this means is the company paying for the advertisement can track exactly how many sales were generated from any single ad placement. This is done by assigning a unique tracking ID to every advertising campaign.
This tracking ID (called a variable) can then be accessed at the company's website's checkout. When recording the entire customer's personal details such as delivery address, this variable is also stored. This then tells the company that the order originated from the Facebook or Google advertisement.
Platforms vary
Each platform and campaign will ultimately have a maximum advertising limit per day. For example, in an offline environment such as a local newspaper, there are only a limited number of adverts that a company can pay for on any given day. For example, an advertiser could perhaps spend a maximum of $5,000 per day in a local newspaper, yet if the company reaches this limit it has to look for another avenue to advertise. The same is true for online ad placements, although due to the nature of the internet much larger spending is required to read the maximum spending limit.
Although it is commonly presumed that spreading adverting across many platforms is often wiser, this is usually done to spread risk due to the uncertainty in advertising, however, if a suitable scientific marketing technique can be devised, this could easily change.

CeBIT Open Source Project Lounge -- Blender
Blender -- 3 Dimensional Software Creation SuiteBy
Blender is among the 15 projects that will present their work at CeBIT, offering 3-Dimensional Software Creation for professionals.
In a nutshell: How would you describe your project in one or two sentences?
Blender is the free and open source 3D creation suite, available for all major operating systems under the GNU GPL.
When did the project begin?
Since 2002.
How did the project come into being?
Blender was developed during the 90ies as an in-house tool by a Dutch animation studio. As a spin-off in 1998, the original creator of Blender (Ton Roosendaal) established a company to further market the Blender software based on a freeware strategy with commercial add-ons. In 2002 the company had to close down, and after a historic user-community fund raising campaign the software became released as GNU GPL. Since then the Blender Foundation coordinates projects by the online user and developer community to further develop and maintain Blender.
Why should a CeBIT visitor come to your booth?
Blender is a fully functional open source alternative for commercial software costing 1000s of euros anually. At CeBIT we can show and demo professional media products that have been created with Blender.
Who do you make your software for?
Blender is targeted at 3D artists, people with a serious interest in creating animation films, 3D design or games.
Where do you see your biggest current challenge?
Blender's roadmap is to really challenge the commercial market, not only technically by improving features and usablitiy, but especially by facilitating and endorsing professionals to pick up Blender for the typical open source business models such servicing, support and integration.
If you could hire a full-time project developer now, what problem should he or she be ready to solve?
Blender Foundation's spin-off "Blender Institute" already employs two developers full-time, and several developers yearly to work on projects.
Project website: www.blender.org
Blender is the best !I think it's the best 3D software for artists.
I am very interested to bring this soft in my country -Romania.
I worked with this soft since 2007.
Blender is a great software for 3D ArtistsI am using Blender since last 3 years. I have learnt a lot thru the net.
You can download my 16 3D Movies I have created in Blender from http://kkrawal7.googlepages.com/index.html

2 PM, Large Meeting Room
"New Technologies—Tools for Lifelong Life-wide Learning"
Friends of Cary welcomes Lexington residents and speakers Joe Blatt, son Julian, and daughter Talia, who will explore how new technologies can facilitate a lifetime of life-wide learning.
Life-wide learning occurs outside classrooms. In museums, at historic sites, on local streets, during vacation travel, in shopping malls—and, of course, in libraries! Discover how people of all ages are using their smart devices and turning their entire worlds into learning environments.
Joe Blatt teaches about children's media, digital technology, and informal learning at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, where he is Senior Lecturer in Education and Faculty Director of the Technology, Innovation, and Education program. His expertise in children's media has led to consulting and advising relationships with major production companies, including Sesame Workshop, WGBH, Disney Junior, Walden Media, PBS Kids, and Pokémon. Before serving as executive producer of Scientific American Frontiers, the PBS magazine series featuring Alan Alda, Blatt made documentaries for the NOVA science series. He is currently president and executive producer of RiverRun Media in Lexington.
A brief business meeting will precede the program. Light refreshments, including a Silver Anniversary cake, will be served.
A round of applause for Cary Memorial Library's summer reading programs and activities!
- 1,641 students participated in the Children's Summer Reading Program, logging 29,890 hours.
- 77 students, entering 4th–6th grades, finished The Reading Challenge.
- 73 programs drew 3,220 attendees
Separately, but also funded by the Friends, was this year's Brickmania event, attracting 268 participants, plus 19 entries in this year's building contest. 27 children also took part in two Brickmania workshops.
Bravo to the approximately 350 people who participated in the Adult Summer Reading Program. And hearty congratulations to Grand Prize winner Ben Ruesch, who received an Amazon Kindle.
Kudos also go to Asako Burr and Mahima Das, our Traveling Tote Bag Contest winners. During the contest, Friends received photos taken in Massachusetts, Maine, New York City, and Florida locations—as well as distant places, including India, Japan and South Africa!

Fumiko turned 4 yesterday and today I'm 30. Made white tulip cupcakes with pureed strawberries and homemade whipped cream for Fumiko yesterday. I ended up going to sleep early last night because I wasn't feeling well and woke up around 4am really sick and ended up throwing up. I still feel ill. Ugh.
I didn't realize my hipstamatic film got changed. Stupid shakey changey thingy. So these are all dark. I didn't realize it had changed until all the presents were opened. So poop. But at least I got photos! My mom came up and watched Fumiko open presents too! She's still recovering from having a stent put in her main artery so she gets tired and exhausted easily. But it was nice that she was able to come up and partake in christmas presents! Now she's downstairs resting with Willow.
So presents!
Fumiko got some nice things.
So she got some nice goodies. For her birthday we got her a Starlite pillow pet[2. Which I'm seriously thinking about stealing.] and a Sweet 1600 Clawdeen Wolf Monster High doll. We've checked at so many stores for monster high dolls of any kind and there were none, anywhere. I found this one when I went to get a japanese beer from Kai. It was seriously the last doll and she was on sale for $22. Fumiko really wanted the Draculaura, Frankie Stein or C.A. Cupid Sweet 1600 dolls but I can't find them anywhere in stores and their prices are jacked up online. But I'm sure she'll like the one we got her anyways. We'll just work on getting the other ones later. Her birthday is on the 31st, then mine is on the 1st, then Kai's is on the 7th, and his mom's is on the 21st I think? Lots of January birthdays. I'm still not sure what cupcakes I'm going to do for her birthday and we still have to go get hello kitty themed birthday stuff. But yeah. Today was nice.
Kai got these awesome soft, fuzzy pants from his mom and a star wars light saber chap stick that lights up. haha I got him a bloodstone pendulum and his star wars game. I got a pair of lotus earrings from his mom which are awesome and I love them. She also got us an awesome new shower head. Kai used his new phone upgrade on my phone line so he got me a white iPhone for christmas. It's seriously awesome and I don't know how I lived without hipstamatic. :O Santa also brought Fumiko all sorts of goodies. Hello kitty crayons, tattoos, a coloring book, a coloring thing that rolls out and you can cut off individual coloring things, hello kitty, chococat and keroppi socks and some candy. She's been super happy and calm and sitting quietly playing with her dolls. Though at one point the Neptuna plushie was a zombie and Draculaura and Lagoona Blue had to murder her.
No christmas dinner today. It was not in our budget and I am not up to cooking all that much anymore. Kai's been doing most of the cooking and I've basically been eating steamed broccoli, roasted brussels sprouts and carrots, and sauteed spinach with lemon juice. Not much is agreeing with me lately.
So yeah. It's been a nice day. I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and staying safe! haha and now Fumiko is watching monster high.

Nivea In Shower Body Moisturiser
I was lucky enough to win these Nivea In Shower Body Moisturisers back in June on the lovely Sarah's Blog – Temporary : Secretary, I had seen them in store & wondered if they were any good. Well let me tell you I'm converted to the in shower moisturise. It has been a god send during this heatwave, I've found it far too hot & sticky to apply regular body butter or lotion but at the same time I hate skipping this step as my legs & arms get so dry.
I like to use this Nivea In Shower Moisturiser in two ways , this first is the standard way & I follow their instructions & use it after I have used my usual shower gel and massage it all over my body then I rinse it off. I find that after I get out the shower my skin feels so very soft & hydrated, and this really keeps the dry skin at bay. Also unlike regular lotion the heat doesn't make this feel sticky on my skin.
The second way I like to use this is to use it as a shaving cream as it leaves my legs & under arms feeling SO smooth they feel amazing. It doesn't lather up but it acts as a really creamy shield and your razor glides over it & you're left with the closet smooth shave. It is also very gentle and you don't get any red bumps or angry shaving rash. If you use this & haven't tried it this way I highly recommend it.
I have been going on & on about these to my Mum & she has stocked up on them & is also a big fan. Like I said its a great way of moisturising in this warm weather without feeling like you have an extra layer of product on. These get a big thumbs up from me. I like both scents equally and really hope Nivea release a few more, maybe a more Autumnal scent.
Let me know if you have tried these & if you have found them to be a hit or miss.
Nivea In Shower Body Moisturiser – 250ml £3.56
28 Mar 2014
March Empties 2014 Pt2
Soap & Glory Foam Call Body Wash 500ml for £6.50 – these big bottles last for ages! I really liked using this and will be getting another one. I used it in the bath as I found it great for shaving my legs, very moisturising and is lathers up well too. We all know how sweet and lovely S&G products smell so I won't go on about that but this was really nice to use & lasted me months.
balance Me Super Toning Body Wash 100ml for £9.00 – I really like this for in the shower as its more luxurious and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated. I have been through a couple of these and would repurchase it over and over again. Its a perfect uplifting morning shower gel
Merumaya Luxury Face Wash* 100ml for £14.50 – Another wonderful product from Merumaya, this introduced me to the double cleanse and I haven't looked back. I used this before their Melting Cleansing Balm and it keeps my skin blemish free, clean and looking bright. I have fallen for this brand in a big way as most of you already know.
Pixi Glow Tonic 250ml for £16.00 – I was sad when this ran out as I noticed they have since changed the packaging and I really like the pump on this as you don't waste any product. The product itself I found to be a very good brightening toner, it worked well for me to clear old blemish scars and keep my skin looking its best. For the price I can't fault it. I went down to using it a few times a week in the evening and that worked best for me
TRESemme Argan Oil Straightening Spray 250ml for £4.99 – I don't often use heat on my hair but over the past few months I've used this spray when I needed to straighten my hair. I used it on damp hair after applying my hair oil. I'm not 100% sure this was all that effective as I still had quite a few flyaway hairs and this is also meant to control frizz also after a couple of months it didn't spray very well. Not overly impressed. I wouldn't buy this again
Nivea Express Hydration Primer 50ml for £3.33 – I was quite surprised at how good this was as both a primer and a moisturiser. I don't wear makeup on a daily basis so this tub lasted me almost a year, as I only used it when I wore makeup. It's very hydrating but not greasy, I've enjoyed using it and would repurchase it. It is very budget friendly.
Dove Shape Up Firming Body Cream 250ml for £3.99- It took me ages to use this up as I really didn't like it. It was very sticky and I could feel it on my skin hours after applying it. I don't think it helped firm my skin in any way. Not a nice body lotion at all.
No7 Beautiful Skin BB Cream 40ml for £13.50 – By accident I got the Normal / Dry skin formula & I have quite an oily t zone but I have to say this still worked well on me. I love the coverage and the finish of this. It isn't too sheer and it gives a very nice glow to the skin. Its one of my favourite bases, especially on those day's when I only want a touch of coverage. This makes me look alive & evens out my complexion. I really like it. Whenever I have a No7 voucher I stock up on these.
Moroccan Oil Extra Volume Shampoo (travel size)* 70ml for £6.85- I used up the conditioner from this set too but seem to have thrown it away. I preferred the shampoo on its own as when I used the conditioner too my hair felt weighed down. The shampoo did give me volume from the roots and my curls looked bouncy and healthy. This was a lovely shampoo but not sure I would repurchase. I think almost £7 is expensive for such a small bottle.
Clarins Lotus Facial Oil Treatment 30ml for £32.00 – I have to say I shed a tear when I used the last drop of this, it has been one of my favourite skin care discoveries for a long time. It really helped with my combination skin, my t zone was less oily and my stubborn blemishes cleared up much faster when I used this at night. It is such a hydrating and balancing oil. When I get the money I will be repurchasing it & hope I can do so before my skin misses it. So if you suffer from oily skin I highly recommend adding this to your skincare regime

Three Products I'm Loving
I use the same skincare and makeup products day-to-day. I seem to be in a bit of a routine with both. I thought I'd show you 3 products that I've been really enjoying using at the moment.
B. Pure Micellar Water – this is quite a new brand which is being sold in Superdrug they have a great range of skincare and makeup. I only picked this up to see how I got on & I've been using it for about a month now. I have tried various Micellar Waters over the past year and out of the ones I've tried this one from B. Pure is my favourite.
It is sold as a cleanser, but I have to say that I use this to remove most of my makeup, however I do use a cream cleanser and face cloth to remove the rest. This is a really refreshing cleanser it smells nice too, it smells fresh but I wouldn't be happy just using this without washing my face too. I am happy I picked this up and will be repurchasing it when it runs out. You can buy it in Superdrug for £4.99
Tommy Guns Weather Protect Dew Drops Serum * There is nothing I like more than to have glossy healthy looking hair, as I get older my hair seems to be more frizzy than glossy. I'm always on the hunt for great haircare products that keep my hair healthy and in good condition. This serum which I received in a goodie bag last year has been a god send during what I would say has been the coldest winter EVER!
A couple drops of this Tommy Guns Serum works magic, you run it through wet hair, I mostly put it through the length of my hair as if I put too much product on my roots my hair gets really weighed down and goes greasy quickly. This serum gives your hair such a fantastic glossy finish and leaves it so soft to the touch. I've also tried it on dry hair to manage frizz and to add a little shine (only a tiny amount) and that works great too. This 50ml bottle is going to last me years! You can buy this serum online for £6.50 for 50ml
Nivea Express Hydration Primer - The beauty world seems to have gone primer mad this past year and I was pleased to see a high street brand release a really good one. With this being a great price I use it everyday under my base and find it to be lightweight and hydrating. It works well to make my foundation last all day. It not only lasts it helps keep my skin hydrated. Not a huge amount to say about this other than I like it and its a great budget primer.
Nivea have released two of these, the one I have is for Dry & Sensitive Skin and the other is for Normal / Combination Skin. £4.99 for Superdrug
What have you been loving so far this year?
* I was kindly given the Tommy Guns Serum to try. But the review is 100% my own.

What's In My Shower
I have seen this tag going about the blogging sphere and in particular on The Sunday Girl Blog and I thought I would show you whats lurking in my shower. Nothing too exciting, but we all like to have a nosey right?!
CHANEL MOUSSE DOUCEUR Rinse-off Foaming Mousse Cleanser Balance + Anti-Pollution I've repurchased this a few times and that says a lot for me as I am always on to the next when something runs out. This is a hefty tube of cleanser it lasts the longest time. It normally lasts me around 3 months. I tend to use it in the morning. It's like my little piece of luxury in the morning. There isn't too must to say apart from I really like how this is gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling ready and fresh for the day. This cleanser is £29.00 for 150ml & I purchase mine from House of Fraser
Nivea Happy Time Shower Cream shower gel / body wash is something I never repurchase. I head for what ever is on offer. This Nivea one smells really citrus and fresh. I really like it. It's on offer in Superdrug for 98p. It is very hydrating and leaves my skin feeling soft and smelling lovely.
Naked Bounce Curl Defining Shampoo & Conditioner* I have done a full review of this here if you'd like to read it. I like these as I wear my hair natural most days & that for me is wavy. These give my wavy hair a little extra help and leaves my hair looking healthy and bouncy.
Superdrug Vitamin E Exfoliating Body Scrub I'm a massive fan of exfoliation my legs. I don't really tan so it's not for that but I just like to get the blood flowing to them in the morning, wake them up and I like to get rid of all the dead skin. This utter bargain from Superdrug has become my favourite exfoliator. Its bursting with exfoliants and you get a great scrub for your money. I have stocked up on a fair few tubes. I urge you o give this a go. It doesn't have a yummy scent like Soap and Glory but it is one hell of a good scrub. Its Superdrug's own brand it's £1.50 for 100ml
No7 Beautiful Skin Radiance Exfoliator this is just OK, If I'm honest I'm trying to use this up, but It is taking forever. I use a tiny bit once a week, mostly around my mouth and chin but it's not the best product I've used. I picked it up with a No7 Voucher and wouldn't buy it again. If the Boots search option worked on their site I would be able to link to the product. But it doesn't (Shock Horror). But if you're interested you can pick this up from No7 Counters for £8.00
If you have written a post like this post the link in the comments so I can have a look. Do you use any of the products I have mentioned? Let me know.
28 Aug 2012
August Empties
It's been a funny old month I have been to Amsterdam & to Scotland and for both trips I took samples & mini products with me & forgot to keep the empty containers, never mind. I do have a few bits that I managed to keep hold of. I still don't think I am using up many things. I need to make more effort to use something before starting on the next product. That way I think I will use up more of the half empty bottles I have all over the place.
Being a beauty junkie there's something satisfying about using up a whole product. Am I alone on this? Or do you feel a little sense of satisfaction too?
Etat Pur Micellar cleansing water / Caudalie Beauty Elixir / Origins Out of Trouble Mask / Nivea Deodorant
1. The ETAT PUR Micellar Cleansing Water £6.40 for 190ml — This was in my Latest in Beauty Box a couple of months ago & I have LOVED using is. It was my first Micellar Cleansing Water and I was so impressed with it. It broke down my makeup and removed it like a dream. I will always use a Micellar Cleansing Water now to remove my makeup before washing my face. I would repurchase this again but this ran out whilst I was on holiday & had to buy one whilst in Amsterdam and so opted for one from Yves Rocher. I will be writing a review of this soon. For £6.40 this is a great value product and I whole heartily recommend it.
2. Caudalie Beauty Elixir £32.00 for 100ml – I purchased this in May so it has last me a few months and I'm so sad this has run out too. I really enjoyed using it. Although I never got used to the smell. I would like to repurchase this but at the moment can't justify the price tag & have put it on my Birthday wish list which is in October. So I am hoping someone takes pity on my addiction and buys me a bottle.
3. Origins Out of Trouble 10 minute mask to rescue problem skin £20 for 100ml – This is a lovely gentle mask which just gives your face a really deep clean. This tube has lasted me so long and I used it almost every week. It's a great quick mask for people who often don't have time to sit with one on for ages. You really only need to leave it on for 10 mins. I would repurchase this too – but i think I will try a different one from Origins first.
4. Nivea Sensitive & Pure roll on deodorant £2.09 for 50ml – Nothing exciting but I get through a far few of these. I have repurchased a different Nivea one but is very similar. This did the job & was gentle on my under arms. Nothing more to say really.
Lacura Salt Scrub / Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Scrub
5. Lacura Aroma Salt Scrub – This is from Aldi and I can't find a link to buy it online anywhere. But its a great budget scrub. It's not a heavy-duty scrub but the salt really gets your skin smooth and leaves it very soft. It's a nice product. I have re purchased this.
6. Soap & Glory Sugar Crush £8.00 for 300ml – This didn't last me very long but i did like it and it smells very sweet. So if you like that kind of scent you will love this. It's a good scrub for really exfoliating and leaves your skin feeling great. I used this mostly on the backs of my arms and my elbows. I would repurchase but only when Boots have a deal on.
Toni & Guy Heat Spray / Simple Eye Makeup Remover / Clarins Extra Firming Body Cream / Kleenex Shine Sheets
7. Toni & Guy Iron it Heat Spray – £1 for 50ml – This was a miniature I picked up for my holiday. Nothing special just the job but I don't think I will repurchase.
8. Simple Eye Makeup Remover – Again this is a miniature I took away with me and I continued to use it when I got back too. It worked really well. I don't wear really heavy eye makeup but it was gentle and all my eye makeup came off no problem. I would repurchase this.
9. Clarins Extra Firming Body Lotion – This was another sample from a beauty box. This one came in a Glossybox & I am so glad it's finally used up as i didn't like it at all. It was too thick and so hard to rub in. I can't see any results and really didn't like how this felt on my skin. Not impressed.
10. Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets £2.99 for 50 I have done a review of these which you can read here if you like. I LOVE these and have purchased a few more packs as I like to have a pack in my handbag with me. I also picked some up for my mum and she is a fan too. So if you havent tried these out give them a go. They really work.
If you have done an empties post this month I'd love to read it. Leave a link to it in the comments.

The Sicily region
Sicily is the largest island in Italian , separated from the mainland by the Strait of Messina and lapped by the Ionian, the Tyrrhenian and the Mediterranean.
One of the pearls of Southern Italy , to discover, to know and experience through a variety of alternative routes that range , depending on the tastes and needs , nature, history and tradition.
And nature seems to have intended this land to its greatest wonders : mountains, hills , and above the sea, with its amazing colors , the transparency of the water and the beauty of its depths excels over other seas .
In this land , the Mediterranean offers scenery , smells and tastes so unique and intense that only nature can offer. Just think of the islands surrounding Sicily, Lipari, Egadi , Pelagie , Pantelleria and Ustica so similar to the beauty of their territory and so peculiar nature , tradition, art and history.
And do not forget the scenic volcanoes , some of which have never been lost as Etna and Stromboli .
A fascination also enriched by precious archaeological evidence that tell the ancient origins of Trinacria (the ancient name of Sicily ) , and by the many monuments, testimony of an art that has been able to forge over the centuries .
The provinces are : Palermo ( the capital ) , Agrigento, Catania , Caltanissetta , Enna , Messina, Ragusa, Siracusa and Trapani.
Located between sea and mountains, the town of Mascali offers the traveler the chance to move anywhere it wants to go. With many opportunities for fun, relaxation and of course nature.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (AP) - Virginia Beach is replacing its police review panel following nearly seven years of inactivity and dozens of complaints that went unanswered.
The move is in response to a report by the city auditor that found "gross negligence, mismanagement and a lack of oversight" by the city's Human Resources Department.
According to the report, two department employees in charge of the program didn't convene the panel to review citizen complains about police behavior. Those employees were forced to retire.
Councilman Jim Wood tells The Virginian-Pilot that the panel's inactivity is a breach of public trust.
City Manager Jim Spore says the city will reconstitute the panel.

Rugby stars launch charity bike ride in aid of injured star
By Teddington People | Wednesday, June 18, 2014, 13:21
London Irish fly-half Shane Geraghty was one of the rugby stars attending the launch party for the Surrey Classic Bike Ride, a charity event aiming to raise money for Esher player Paul Barker.
London Irish's Shane Geraghty at the launch party for the Surrey Classic Bike Ride, raising money for Esher player Paul Barker.
Paul suffered a badly broken leg in 2012 but when a follow-up operation uncovered a rare form of cancer, it was amputated so the tumour did not spread. Fellow team mates including Darren Clayton have organised the 100, 85 or 55 mile charity cycling event, which will follow the Olympic route to raise funds for a new prosthetic leg for Paul.
Well known faces from rugby came out in a show of support at the launch event, held at the G!ro Cycle Cafe last Thursday in Esher, and some will take part in the ride to be held on 29 June.
Talking about the race, Shane Geraghty commented: "It's for a great cause, riding for Paul. I live in Claygate and the rugby community tends to work together. Rugby's a tough game and people tend to come together and help each other out. It should be a great day.
"I was hoping to ride but I've got pre-season training the next day. I'd encourage people to come out and support. And there's still time to register if you're up for it. I'll definitely be out there supporting on the day. My brother, Kieran will be riding. He's just got back from a London-Paris ride. My wife might ride too."
And, speaking about the route itself, he said: "What a great place to do it. The Surrey Hills, the landscape and the countryside around here are incredible. Get involved, it's a great cause, you'll have a great day out on the roads and you never know who you might meet. Go out there and enjoy it."
Visibly moved, and with a week left of chemotherapy, Paul Barker said: "I've been really humbled by everyone's response. You meet all these people through the years, you play with them and you don't think anything bad's going to happen and when it does, you never think people are going to group together as much as they have. People have been so generous with their time as well as their money."
Paul will spend the next month in rehab, training five days a week. He said: "I feel like I'm reaching the end of a long, hard six months. I'm very positive about things moving forward and would like to thank anyone taking part and coming out to support."

WICHITA FALLS, Texas (AP) - An appeals court ruling is upholding a statute that allows the city of Wichita Falls to file lawsuits against gang members -- a tactic aimed at disrupting gang activity before it escalates.
The 2nd Court of Appeals in Fort Worth ruled this week that Wichita Falls' injunction, similar to those created in cities nationwide, is constitutional.
The gang prosecutor for Wichita Falls and Wichita County, Robert Massey, says the ruling is a big deal.
He says he planned to notify other cities in Texas that have such injunctions because this was the first appeal and court ruling on the matter in the state.
The civil injunctions bar gang members from hanging out together on street corners, in cars or anywhere else in certain areas.
In some cases, they don't allow members to even talk to people passing in cars or to carry spray paint.
They also give police legal reasons to stop and question gang members, who often are found with drugs or weapons.

Ethernet switch pitch less of a b*tch as 2012 comes to a close
The Ethernet switch market picked up a tiny bit as last year came to a close, according to various box counters, and the prognosticators at Infonetics Research and IDC were projecting that 2013 would see stronger growth as the move to 10 Gigabit Ethernet begins in earnest in the data center and companies start contemplating …
Cheap basic switches needed
To drive 10GbE adoption, cheap basic switches are needed - the 10GbE equivalent of the 8 port 1GbE switches that can be picked up for under £50. For small outfits, managed switches are unwanted extra expense. (How many full featured managed switches are used as dumb switches throughout IT.)
To kickstart 10GbE, 8 port switches should be under £1000 and the NICs should be under £100 (10GBASE-T) with the switch ports being able 10 handle 10GbE and 1GbE (autoswitching). If and when these prices become available then 10GbE will be used as a matter of course.
(There are far more small companies than large ones and for a company on one site with fewer than 50 employees (>>90%) managed switches are not needed.)
Re: Cheap basic switches needed
Forgeddaboutit. The Cisco/Juniper boys want you to have a mishmash of layer 2/3 managed overpriced overcomplicated crap with the web GUI disabled so you have to pay consultants all the time for even the most basic change and when it continually goes wrong .
Re: Cheap basic switches needed
Thats pretty much where I am at, wanting a sanely priced (i.e. about 20 quid \ 30 bucks a port) 8-12 port 10gbe switch. Double it for a managed switch.
It just seems that ethernet just isn't accelerating in speed as fast as I need compared to say processors \ hard drives etc (at least when factoring in cost). Perhaps I'm being unrealistic but I remember using 1gbe maybe 9-10 years ago and I was far from an early adopter, I'm sure it had been around at least a couple of years by then.
I would love for 40 or 100 gbe to be sanely priced but theres no chance, not when we are struggling to get a decent price on 10gbe.
It's all about the east-west
For the first time in a long time, there is starting to be a bit of buzz about the Ethernet switching market. Whatever your views on Ethernet as a technology (there are few other examples in IT of something as long-lived as Ethernet has been), we are starting to see some genuine innovation driving radical re-thinks of how Ethernet fits in a modern Enterprise.
It's definitely right to point out that the drive to 10 gig is not just about more bandwidth. Reduced latency is a massive benefit, especially for the transactional east-west traffic flows which we are increasingly seeing within data centre environments (due to application "fan out" from single user request to peer systems to pull in data from disparate sources relevant to that user request, amongst other trends). This change in traffic flows should be driving some redesign in data centre topologies; the tiered "top-of-rack" to "end-of-row" to "core" topology that some switch vendors continue to advocate (as it drives sales of the cash cow modular switch systems) stymies these kind of east-west traffic flows.
In the data centre, new tin is a by-product both of the drive to greater 10 gig densities and higher and a change in best-practice as far as data centre design goes. Fabric technologies such as Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) or FabricPath should be driving re-thinks in design, away from end-of-rack aggregation to meshes of interconnected, lower-cost top-of-rack systems that optimise the forwarding of layer-2 and layer-3 traffic between racks, rows and even data centres. This becomes even more relevant as the server guys push the network guys to support things like VXLAN - SPB in particular is suited to providing the scalable multicast environment that VXLAN requires; one of the many reasons why Avaya, Alcatel-Lucent, Huawei and others have gone down this route rather than the proprietary alternatives.

Mahe September 2014 - Mahe is worth a stop over but I personally would not stay long (max 2 nights). The beaches are tiny and dispersed, you definitely need a car to explore the island and have freedom to up-and-go when you please. We found a wonderful large stretch of beach at Beau Vallon and would recommend to rather stay in this area (West Coast and we were on the East Coast). The island was very expensive, even more so than Praslin. Some of the restaurants and take-away places were just completely unreasonably, unexplainably expensive. There are cheaper shops in Victoria if you are self-catering like the STC. The people on all the islands we visited were consistently friendly, welcoming and accommodating.

I feel I'm a little late to the chase here, I've read pretty much all of my opinions posted by other users!
This might just be me but one thing I would like to see more of is the roots of your business - you mention "The founders are 2 brothers and their
old university friend. From these close knit beginnings ...", I think more information regarding your growth from providing a local ICT service to a national PC manufacturer would be inspiring and help to portray a friendly image, separating yourselves the big money grabbers out there. While you have mentioned your "customer centric approach" throughout your brochure, a picture or two of your premises and friendly staff (hard at work of course) would help to visualise this. Also, the bloke in blue shouldn't thrust!! STOP IT!
On page 5, the "and the rest" text should not fade out.
In general the design is really nice.

Chestnut paste in Toronto??
Does anyone know where to get chestnut paste in Toronto? I've once seen the canned ones in Montreal however i have never found anything in Toronto. Have you seen something like this in the stores?
Also, what about making it from frest chestnuts? I really love the chest nut mousse that some asian bakery has.. and would love to try making it myself...
any idea or suggestion??
Highland Farms in Kennedy x Ellesmere had them when I last looked.
It's also not difficult to make. Use a food processor or a blender to mix boiled chestnuts, milk or cream (your choice), and sugar. Heat the mixture in low to medium heat for a few minutes, et voila. If you'd like you can also add vanilla beans and/or rum.
You can play around with the chestnut:milk (or cream):sugar ratio, depending on how firm or soft you want your paste.
I bought a couple cans of unsweetened chestnut puree at the Dominion in College Park several months back
i bought these pudding cup sized things of "chestnut creme" from wholefoods on avenue because they looked interesting .. i think it is made of chestnuts and sugar .. it has a pasty texture too..
re: foodcricket
The Loblaws at Queens Quay and Jarvis has it too...in a tube and in a can, if I recall correctly.
