You could say this was the most expensive Jewish doctor's prescription in the world.
Sotheby's New York has announced a sale of over £6.7m worth of Judaica, including a 15th-century copy of Moses Maimonides's text, Mishneh Torah.
Some people start the new year by resolving to keep a diary, but last January Gideon Summerfield went a step further. He pledged that on every day of 2012 he would complete a drawing, inspired by the day's most important news and events.
Time Magazine has published a selection of photos which portray the Jewish ghettos of Kutno and Warsaw in a previously unseen way. High-ranking Nazi photographer Hugo Jaeger, who took the pictures, was supplied by the Nazi hierarchy with both a colour and 3D-capable camera.
You have almost certainly heard of Marc Chagall, and Modigliani may be a familiar name. But what about Chaim Soutine?
With the Ben Uri Gallery in London currently displaying a newly acquired Soutine painting, it is time to discover more about an artist, who, like his great friend Chagall, made his way from his home in Russia in the early years of the 20th century to study and work in Paris.
Just outside the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem lies a house built in the mid-1870s by a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite movement.
A mural depicting money-grabbing bankers and highlighting Western imperialism conspiracy theories will be removed following complaints that it contains antisemitic undertones.
Freedom for Humanity was painted on a property near Brick Lane in London's East End by renowned international graffiti artist Kalen Ockerman, known as Mear One.
Over 300 works were submitted to this year's Art House community exhibition. Here's a selection
It made quite a picture. There they were — more than 200 artists, their families and friends crowded into the London Jewish Cultural Centre for the opening of the second Art House community exhibition last week.
Over 200 artists, their families and friends crowded into the London Jewish Cultural Centre for the opening of the second Art House community art exhibition this week.
For the first time in 30 years, six important paintings of scenes from Jewish life, by the artist Alfred Wolmark, are to go on sale.

Turkey's FM comments on Twitter ban
Thursday, April 03, 2014
NEW YORK - Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu appeared to endorse Turkey's Constitutional Court's ruling on Wednesday that the Twitter ban be restored.
Responding to reporters in New York after the UN Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) group of friends session, Davutoglu said, "court orders need to be respected everywhere across the world."
He added Turkey had asked Twitter to restrict access to the accounts that violated people's rights, however, Twitter refused to do so.
"The Twitter ban was a temporary measure and it does not aim to restrict freedom of expression," he added.
Davutoglu added that Turkey is making progress to normalize relations with Israel, which have been tense since nine Turks aboard a Gaza-bound aid flotilla were killed by Israeli soldiers in 2010.
Israel's apology to Turkey last year marked the beginning of improvement of relations. Turkey is expecting "positive developments" in the coming days on its second requirement - compensation to the families - Davutoglu said. The third demand from Turkey is the lifting of the Gaza blockade.
Asked whether Turkey was at war with Syria, Davutoglu said, "Turkey's borders have been violated many times...Turkey shot down a Syrian military jet three weeks ago. That is why this is an extremely serious matter that needs to be followed by Turkey," he said.
Davutoglu said he would seek support for Turkey's bid to become a non-permanent member of the United Nations Security Council for the term 2015 and 2016 during his visit in New York.
Turkey served as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council in 2009 and 2010.
Five permanent members of the council are; U.K. U.S., China, France, Russia. The 10 non-permanent seats are filled by members of the UN General Assembly, with five countries elected each year for two years.

text: FacebookTwitterGoogle+E-mail Farmocracy Experiment 1 | 2 | 3 Please read Farmocracy Experiment for background and sense of where I am going with this. Eventually, the will of the parrots on both sides broke down, and they started clawing and picking at each other. As the fighting worsened, Sama and his friends ended up in one side of the cage, while Hata and his friends gained control of the other side. Tsin and Acir saw in this situation, further opportunity in dividing the parrots, so they immediately started delivering food to the side of the cage that Hata controlled. On the other side of the cage, controlled by Sama, they talked about even shutting water deliveries. [from Farmocracy Experiment, July 05, 2007) So, what I mentioned in this first post came to fruition almost exactly 6 months later. The cats of Tsin (Israel), fully supported by the bulls of Acir (America), did what was anticipated by most. They decided to collectively punish the corner of the cage which was more favorable to Sama (Hamas) for voting in who they did not like in a failed famocracy (democracy) experiment (failed not because it wasn't democratic, but failed because the "wrong" people got elected, as decided by Israel and its protector). While the world protests, Israel continues to impose a severe blockade, which forced the closure of the only electric plant that served Gaza City's 400,000 residents and one third of the Gaza Strip's 1.5 millions residents. While the world bemoans the clear flouting of international laws (Article 33 of the Fourth Geneva Convention states: "No protected person may be punished for an offence he or she has not personally committed.â€), Israel continues to follow the path of ignoring laws and resolutions as it done for much of its history. "I have made clear that I am against this collective punishment of the people of Gaza," said EU External Relations Commissioner Benita Ferrero-Waldner. Without power, hospitals, water facilities and other crucial lifelines may completely shut off and homes may be left without heat, plunging Gaza into disarray. On Monday, the U.N. said it would suspend food distribution to 860,000 Palestinians. The World Food Program, which distributes food to another 270,000 Gaza residents warned that it too would have to suspend operations by Thursday due to lack of fuel. This letter by a Robert O'Sullivan bemoans the shameful denial of Palestine holocaust [Irish Independent]. As desperate Palestinians breached a border wall with Egypt for basic food supplies, the ruthless state terrorism of Israel/America want Egypt to shut off this one outlet for basic human needs, in order to completely and utterly choke Gaza. Israel's abysmal reason for imposing this collective punishment on Gaza is because some home-made missiles have been hitting Israel from Gaza. How many people have died from this? How much damage? Hardly any. Yet, the F-16 fired missiles by Israeli airforce have killed many times more people and damaged tons more property than any of the flimsy rockets from Gaza. Akin to the notorious quote misquote "If they have no bread, let them eat cake!", here is what the Israeli Prime Minister, Ehud Olmert, said about the fuel-shortages in Gaza. [Also, Read this great article in Israeli newspaper, Haaretz]: "As far as I'm concerned, all the residents of Gaza can walk and have no fuel for their cars…" What can you do? (1) Make du'a', the believer's strongest weapon (2) Donate and help your brothers and sisters in Gaza. You can use Islamic Relief (4-star charity per Charity Navigator) as a "safe" choice insha'Allah. (3) Follow steps in CAIR's action alert below the sleeve. Here is an Action Alert from CAIR: IMMEDIATE ACTIONS REQUESTED: 1. CONTACT your elected officials (one U.S. Representative and 2 U.S. Senators) and ask them to call for an end to the Israeli blockade of Gaza, and a full restoration of the essential services. Call, fax, and email. Click here to find your representative: Talking points: *As your constituent, I urge you to call for an immediate end to the illegal Israeli blockade in Gaza. * Our nation and its leaders cannot and should not remain silent as an illegal humanitarian disaster unfolds in Gaza. Collective punishment is always counterproductive and only serves to block moves toward a just resolution of any conflict. * Because American taxpayers provide Israel with billions of dollars of economic support each year, we have the right to demand that those funds not be used to increase human suffering. * Israel must abide by international law and universal standards of human rights. We call on President Bush to demand the immediate end of Israel\'s blockade. * Silence from American officials will only serve to increase the perception worldwide that our nation cares little for the suffering of the Palestinian people. * The perception that the U.S. abets cruel and inhumane treatment of civilian populations provides fodder for anti-Americanism that may threaten the security of the United States. 2. INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY by forwarding this alert to at least five other people. Tell them you took action and ask them to do the same. FacebookTwitterGoogle+E-mail 14 Responses Amad January 26, 2008 I wonder when America will stop tying itself to a cause (Israel) that only hurts our nation– making us less safer (by providing terrorists more fodder) and less popular (by supporting clearly illegal actions by another nation). 0 0 Reply Aboo Uthmaan January 26, 2008 "…failed not because it wasn't democratic, but failed because the 'wrong' people got elected…" Indeed, so what kind of democracy is that?! It just goes to show the fallacy of democracy in the first place and that not much has changed since its inception all those years ago in ancient Greece. Huda TV recently did a special edition of "Ask Huda" with Shaykh Muhammad Salah and Br. Jamil Rashid on the current crisis in Gaza; it is well worth a watch, you can download it from the Islamic Torrents website: http://islamictorrents.net/details.php?id=13524 0 0 Reply me January 26, 2008 it doesnt matter what the americans will do or wont do for help..indeed they may not help the palestinians at all as Allah has already told us in the Quran that jews and christians are friends of one another. the pertinent qurestion to be asked is..what have the opther oil rich arab countries done for falasteen?have they raised a hue and cry about it?how much are they donating?are they ever gona WAKE UP from their deep slumber and do just a LITTLE bit to alleviate the sufferings of their fellow arab muslim brothers and sisters! it was quite deplorable to see palestianians begging to be allowed into egypt(a "muslim") to ask for basic necessities..if this is the level of consideration shown by muslims..how do you expect americans to help?like seriously? 0 0 Reply me January 26, 2008 **egypt(a "muslim" country) 0 0 Reply Malik January 27, 2008 It's unbelievable the wanton anti-semitism in this post and thread and how the Israeli's (read "filthy jews" to the people at MM) are held to a radically different and higher standard than the Palis. As your constituent, I urge you to call for an immediate end to the illegal Israeli blockade in Gaza. It's illegal for a sovereign nation to defend it's borders from a people who (and whose government) are intent on the destruction of that nation and people? Why isn't Eqypt attacked for the fact that they have a wall and enforce border security to a level that would cause the world to call for Israel's destruction. *smacks head* oh wait, they're muslim. Because American taxpayers provide Israel with billions of dollars of economic support each year, we have the right to demand that those funds not be used to increase human suffering. We supply hundreds of millions of dollars to the Palis and, through the UN, hundreds of millions more. Unlike Israel (who use it for defense, infrastructure and mostly peaceful means) the Palis us it (and billions more supplied by the rest of the world) to push forward their genocidal plan against the Jewish people. In fact, the "Palestinian Territories" is nothing but a paramilitary, terrorist launching ground. Were is the outcry about that from the Muslims. *chirp*chirp*chirp* Just another example of the double-standard that Islam has for Muslims and Non-muslims; a double-standard they have pushed the "World Body", The UN, to make as it's official policy. Finally, we have to respect their elections and their outcome (meaning we can't try to turn their elections to our desired end when they are occurring and we can't take any aggressive action against them), but we are talking AID here; we can withdraw that at any time, for any reason, It's our money. If you had a welfare Queen (and that's what the Palis are) who took up with a drug dealer would you consider it "oppression" to cut off her welfare because you don't want to support criminality? Of course not, and that's what's going on here. 0 0 Reply Malik January 27, 2008 And one final thought. The Palestinians could end the fighting tomorrow if they asked for peace and swore to abide by the Oslo accords and not send daily suicide bombers and rocket attacks against Israel; but they choose aggression, which they cannot win at. The Israelis could end this tomorrow by unleashing their mighty military on the Palestinians and wiping them out; but they don't, they continue to try for peace by ceding to Pali demands. The only logical conclusion an objective observer can make seeing these facts is the Israelis truly want peace and the Palis only want Genocide and Martyrdom. 0 0 Reply Amad January 27, 2008 Israeli's (read "filthy jews" to the people at MM) What they read is what is written, not what your defensiveness feeds you. Anti-Israel sentiments are not equal to antisemitism and you can keep screaming that they are until the cows come home, but it will still be propaganda created by the Israeli lobby to squelch any debate on Israel's state-terrorism. Oh and I am assuming that the Orthodox Jews opposed to Zionism (see the post above) are also antisemitic! Love the timing of this post. Oslo accords? Are you kidding me? Who continues to create new "neighborhoods" filled with racist and abusive zionists? Who is choking the occupied territories of basic supplies? You know what: Math don't lie. More than 4 times more innocent Palestinian civilians have been killed compared to innocent Israeli civilians. You can take that argument to the bank! Shame on you for your defense of collective punishment of innocent civilians. P.S. You are not talking about "AID". You are talking about cutting supply of natural resources from the land you have already occupied and stolen from another people to the little cage that you have stuffed them in. 0 0 Reply muslimmatters.org » Israel's "Retaliatory" Killing Machine Fully Justified March 5, 2008 [...] be in, and nothing to do with the fact that essentials of daily life, supplies of utilities, etc. have been cut off.

When Jeremy Lind launched CycloneFanatic.com in 2005, this website was a one man show. Today, we are proud to have a handful of sports writers that contribute to Cyclone Fanatic on a weekly basis. Below, check out our team and read their work. As our site grows, so will this list on our journey towards being the No. 1 fan site in America.
Chris Williams
Chris was hired as CycloneFanatic.com's publisher in the fall of 2009. Along with former Iowa State wide receiver Jack Whitver, he is the Iowa State football postgame show host on the Cyclone Radio Network. Chris represents Cyclone Fanatic in the Des Moines Register and WHO-TV regularly throughout the season as well.
During Iowa State's "offseason," Williams is active covering auto racing in the state of Iowa as a commentator for the Des Moines Register and the host of "Iowa Speedway RaceDay" on Des Moines' sports talk radio station, 1460 kXno.
Williams, a 2007 graduate of Iowa State's Greenlee School of Journalism, is the former publisher of the old CycloneNation.com (Scout.com). He's also served as a columnist for the Ames Tribune, a reporter for CycloneReport.com and is the former sports director at KMA Radio in Shenandoah, Iowa.
If Williams isn't working, you can usually find him doing something outdoors with his wife Ashley and Golden Retriever Dierks. He enjoys golfing, boating, country music, the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Braves and is passionate about any and all motor sports so finding Williams at a local dirt track is very common.Most Recent Article: Maryland humbles the Cyclones in KC.
Rob Gray
Rob, an Ames native, joined Cyclone Fanatic in August, 2014 after nearly a decade and a half of working at Iowa's two largest newspapers.
He spent 10 years at the Des Moines Register and, after a brief stint in public relations, joined the Cedar Rapids Gazette as an Iowa State correspondent three years ago.
Rob's excited to work with fellow suffering Minnesota Vikings fan Chris Williams, as well as everyone else involved with CF.
He's also eager to interact with all of you — and welcomes constructive criticism and story ideas.
Rob, a former world traveler, has settled into life as a family man and mostly stay-at-home dad armed with a laptop and a home office.
When he's not covering Iowa State, he's hiking, biking and camping with his family. He also enjoys reading and gardening while trying to forget he made the fateful decision long ago to become a Chicago Cubs fan. Fortunately, his dad's a lifelong Boston Red Sox fan, so the (usually, unlike in 2014) successful BoSox have always been Rob's only other favorite MLB team.
He hopes he's not done traveling, either — though he's creeping up on the day he can apply for an AARP card. Rob's remaining bucket list of travel includes Brazil, Peru, the Galapagos, Botswana/Kenya/Namibia, Turkey, Romania and Alaska.
Brent Blum
Blum has been a columnist for Cyclone Fanatic since 2009. He is the pre-game/halftime host and on-site producer for the Cyclone Football broadcasts on the Cyclone Radio Network and fill-in voice for Cyclone men's and women's basketball. Blum also does TV play-by-play of regional sporting events for Mediacom Connections.
Since graduating from Iowa State's Greenlee School of Journalism in 2007, he has spent time working for WOI-TV in Des Moines, KMA Radio in Shenandoah and the Orlando Magic of the NBA.
He currently works in the marketing and higher education field in Des Moines.
Blum has proclaimed himself as one of four NBA fans in Iowa and spends the rest of his time on the golf course, over analyzing reality television or admiring Ed Hightower's fro-wig.Most Recent Article: BLUM: Believe the Hoiball hype.
Ian Smith
This is Ian's fourth year of covering Iowa State football and women's basketball for Cyclone Fanatic. Smith writes games stories and features after each home football game. His women's basketball reporting consists of game coverage, features and he is one of the only writers in the market who covers women's basketball recruiting.
Before working for Cyclone Fanatic, Ian spent time writing for the Vail Daily in Colorado and the Ottumwa Courier. Currently, Ian works at Ames High School where he coaches football and baseball. Ian graduated from the University of Iowa in 2007.
Ian is a fanatical Denver Broncos and Colorado Rockies fan. John Elway #7 is the greatest athlete to ever live.Most Recent Article: Cyclones remain a work in progress.
Matt Van Winkle
Matt Van Winkle started working for Cyclone Fanatic in the spring of 2012 as a video intern. You may have seen some of his Iowa State football & basketball "Quick Hit" videos on the site. Matt has covered the Men's Big 12 & NCAA Basketball tournaments, Liberty Bowl, and numerous road events for CF. From day one, Matt has continued to produce top notch video content to the site.
Matt is a 2009 Ames High School graduate and 2013 graduate of Iowa State University where he majored in Journalism & Mass Communication.

Kirk Haaland
Kirk Haaland has been a Cyclone Fanatic contributor for nearly three years. It started with a weekly column in the fall of 2009 known as "Outside the Men's Room" that hit on a variety of Iowa State topics. By early 2011 he had started his own site, www.encyclonepedia.com that takes the analysis of historical and present day ISU football and men's basketball to a new level. While running his own site he has still been contributing here at Cyclone Fanatic.
Kirk is a 2006 graduate of Iowa State University and a 2002 graduate of Nevada High School. Currently his paying job is as Process Engineer in the world of manufacturing. He lives in Ankeny with his wife and two daughters, ages two and four, as well as their Golden Retriever, Clyde (Williams). Family time, golf, running, and other activities keep him busy when he isn't chasing down intriguing data.
Bags is his game of tailgating dominance as long as he has the proper balance with a cheap beer in his off hand. Taking down any and all tailgating grub and clone cones is his other specialty. Kirk is a lifelong Cyclone fan and his greatest memories include the 1992 football game with Nebraska and the 2000 NCAA tournament win over UCLA.
On the boards Kirk has been around since 2004 and goes by "khaal53" and you can follow him at @khaal53 on twitter. Look for his unique and fact based opinions on all things Iowa State here at Cyclone Fanatic.Most Recent Article: CF's Experts Pick'em: Week 13.
Austin Narber
This is Austin's first year with Cyclone Fanatic as a college basketball contributor. As a lifelong hoops enthusiast, stat geek and casual writer, he started a blog in January 2013 called Permanent Redshirt that has been a big success in its early stages. It covers mostly college basketball and some Cyclone-specific material.
Austin graduated from Iowa State University in the Fall of 2011, majoring in Sociology, after spending a brief time in the Greenlee School of Journalism. He proclaims writing as his first and only true love but would like to one day be a sports radio personality.
Austin, who goes by "Narber" to anyone who knows him well, is a native of Altoona and was born and bred a Cyclone. Both of his parents and his stepmother attended Iowa State. He currently works as a supervisor for Stoney Creek Hotel & Conference Center in Johnston. In his free time, he enjoys running and trying new craft beers.
When Narber isn't immersed in college hoops, he is hopelessly rooting on the Minnesota Vikings or fending off bandwagon accusations for being a lifelong Boston Red Sox and Miami Heat fan. He and his younger brother, Ethan, were once kicked out of Fenway Park for signing their names on the Green Monster.Most Recent Article: NARBER: Week five college football viewer's guide.

Artist Marcia Burtt doesn't consider painting for an audience much different than painting alone.
Larson Newspapers
Artist Marcia Burtt doesn't consider painting for an audience much different than painting alone.
Time limits are the real challenge, she said, but she doesn't alter her approach to compete with the ticking clock. She just speeds everything up.
On Sunday, Oct. 21, Burtt will join 30 other artists at the third annual Sedona Plein Air Festival. The week-long event, ending Sunday, Oct. 28, will give art enthusiasts a rare opportunity to catch artists in the act of creating and even purchase the end result.
Artists will scatter throughout Sedona, Oak Creek Canyon and Jerome to paint and field occasional questions from onlookers.
Like most people, Burtt worked a day job for years. She worked long hours for little pay and spent her free time painting. It wasn't until she was in her 40s that she became a full-time artist, she said.
Having to wait so long may have given her a greater appreciation for the chance to create art for a living than artists who went straight from art school to selling their work in galleries, Burtt said.
Her technique, shaped outside of the classroom, is self-evolved and different from many other painters, she said. She doesn't plan or sketch anything before painting. She just finds a location, looks closely, and begins — gradually torquing and twisting until everything works together.
"The more you paint, the more you see what's good to paint," Burtt explained. "You begin to think like an artist, your eyes become unpeeled and everything begins to look interesting — even a trash heap."
Burtt was a young girl when her father gave her her first set of paints. With no instruction, she began painting, and over time, developed a style of her own, she said.
While growing up in Los Angeles, Burtt was often singled out for her skills as an artist, but she never won any competitions, she said. She believes she was more talented than most of her peers, but her dedication to realism made her a bit of a loner in a generation focused largely on abstract expressionism.
Burtt continued to paint, however, and she often found herself outdoors wandering through the woods or on the beach with a box of paints and a collapsible easel.
Her fascination with nature continued to grow as she searched for intense colors, shadow patterns, and water — her favorite thing to paint, she said.
It's a very zen thing to paint something that's always moving, Burtt said of water. It can't really be nailed down, so it's more about "being" than painting a still life.
It's a mind-dissolving experience, Burtt said.
Burtt will probably coax students to the waters of Oak Creek when she leads an outdoor acrylic painting workshop at the Sedona Arts Center from Monday, Oct. 29, to Friday, Nov. 2 — just after the Sedona Plein Air Festival ends.
When the workshop ends, she'll strike off on her own to paint, and maybe a few will follow.

After Denver blew a game at home against the Raiders two weeks ago, it's tough to completely discount the chance that the Chiefs will play a spoiler role. Still, the Broncos should be hungry and are clearly better than Kansas City.

The Cowboys are feeling better about themselves than at any other point of the season. Also, the pressure of making the playoffs is off. They're home and playing a team that humiliated them last season.
By C. Christopher
It's hard to predict this one because the clubs might face each other the following week. That changes personnel and game-planning decisions. But the Cardinals are at home and the Packers have less to play for.
By C. Christopher
The Bucs are on a roll but they're not even sure themselves if they're just hot or if they've really turned the corner. This is a chance for Tampa to prove in front of its home crowd that the Bucs are really on the right track again.

It's hard to imagine either of these teams making the playoffs, considering how much help both squads will need even if they win.

If Belichick rests players like Brady, Moss and Welker, the Texans should win handily. If not, it could be close. The Texans haven't lost by more than eight points since the opening game.

Great Case but...
This review is from: APEVIA X-CRUISER3 X-CRUISER3-AL Silver Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case w/ Side Window-Silver
Pros: Great case, for standard use or Gaming, Lots of room for multiple drives and one good spot for SSD. Also plenty of Video card space. USB 3.0 on the top as well as 2.0, Dials work properly. LOTS OF FANS! This thing came with more fans that work properly then most people put in their tower all together.
Cons: Two things, The front gages are cool and awesome, I bought an Asus motherboard that I know supports the VU gage (the one for sound) It worked at first and now not even 2 weeks later it has stopped working, I've looked up EVERYTHING I possibly could to get this to work or see if I had done anything wrong. And..Nothing, Also the thermal gage for the CPU or Hard drive didn't work at all. If I didn't have the computer all together and the rest of it working 100% I would return the case.

Pros: Coolest looking case Ive ever seen! Has tons of options and fans for great cooling. Gauges are nice looking and allow me to adjust fan speed with ease.
Cons: opening the door installing OS and other disks took an extra 5 seconds but I already knew this, some of the cables could of used a lil more length, 3.5 bay for my SSD was a lil tricky
Other Thoughts: Very pleased so far!

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles says it has cut the fees for driver's licenses after determining that it had miscalculated those charges.
But a lawyer who filed a class-action lawsuit over those fees says he thinks the BMV is still charging too much.
The BMV says the fees for standard operator's licenses have been cut by $3.50 effective immediately.
Attorney Irwin Levin says while he's glad the BMV is lowering the fees, he believes it should be refunding some $30 million in overcharges collected since 2007.
A BMV spokesman said no action has been taken on any refunds and couldn't comment further on that possibility because of the pending lawsuit.
The new fees range from $17.50 for a six-year driver's license to $14.50 for a four-year license.

Photos and Description of this 2 bedroom holiday apartment in La Duquesa
2 Bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 4
This is a super apartment in a lovely complex on the beach with a pool and lovely mature gardens with palms, banana trees, and a wonderful selection of flowers tended for by a permanent gardener. There is no need to hire an expensive car because the apartment is 5-10 minutes flat walk from the coach stop from Malaga and Gibraltar, and is very close walking to all shops, restaurants and supermarkets. It is located right on the beach, and 10 to 15 mins walk along the seafront promenade from the marina at Puerto de la Duquesa in Sabanillas, a delightful seaside town very close to all the main golf courses. Sabanillas is the Costa del Sol's best-kept secret, located within easy reach of the airports of Malaga (50min) or Gibraltar (20min).
The apartment is on the fourth floor with lovely views and has lift access. The 2 bedrooms are a good size and have large built in wardrobes. The first bedroom has a double bed, the second two single beds. Both bedrooms have small balconies.
The complex, golf courses and attractions close by: The apartment is on the edge of Sabanillas town - it is a 20 second walk to the nearest small supermarket and nearest bars and restaurants. A 10min walk takes you to the nearest large supermarket and the delightful palm tree decorated centre of Sabanillas. The whole apartment complex has been built to closely resemble the old fashioned traditional Spanish Andalusian style, with pretty iron balcony railings and terracotta roofs, so there is plenty of character. There are no loud discos/clubs to keep you awake all night! You can find these just 10 minutes drive away at Estepona port, or at Puerto de la Duquesa 15 mins walk away. Sabanillas is a lower-key yet vibrant and colourful seaside resort, attracting many Spanish tourists as well as other nationalities, and there are no high-rise hotels or developments here at all. We enjoy 320 days of sunshine per year.
Attractions in the surrounding area: An approx 15 min walk along the beach promenade from the apartment (or a 3 min drive) is the beautiful and famous port and golf centre of Puerto de la Duquesa with yachts and boats of all sizes berthed in the marina, here you can relax by the port in one of the many bars or restaurants (there is also a good night-life here in the summer) and while away the hours or a short walk along the beach is the old Castillo of Duquesa and the beautiful village with its white Spanish houses, here you will find some of the most magnificent fish restaurants in Southern Spain. Sabanillas and the marina at Puerto de la Duquesa are flanked with fine sands and clean and crystalline water beaches which have been awarded with the European Blue flag status. You can drive to Ronda along the 'Ruta de la Toro' route of the bulls to where bullfighting originated. Visit the white villages in the mountains and look to the sky to see eagles and Griffen Vultures soaring above.
Other attractions:: Selwo Safari is nearby and of course no trip is complete without visiting Gibraltar and the top of the Rock to see the Monkeys and the Tunnels or just taking in Main Street and the duty free shopping. Visit nearby Puerto Banus (20 minute drive) for the exclusive shops and maybe you will rub shoulders with the stars. A relaxing atmosphere is teamed with an array of first-class facilities which makes Sabanillas a very desirable location for your relaxing beach/golfing holiday.
- Suitability:
- children welcome
- pets not allowed
- suitable for elderly or infirm
- wheelchair inaccessible

Horizon Scholarship Services
Horizon Scholarship Research and Consulting Services
We have helped students win more than $500,000 in scholarships, grants and other aid for college!
Each year, thousands of dollars in college scholarships, grants and other financial aid go unclaimed. The reason: Most students and parents don't know where and how to find scholarships. And school guidance counselors simply don't have the time to do the research for them.
The process of locating, applying for and winning scholarships can be challenging and almost overwhelming, but we can help. Horizon Scholarship Services, a division of RightResponse eMarketing, simplifies the process. We give students a head start and competitive edge by providing a list of scholarships to target and an organized game plan. We help them get organized, stay focused, meet application deadlines—and get better results than they could on their own.
How We Can Help
With our professional skills, advice and assistance, students can use their time more strategically when applying for scholarships. This allows them to target the most scholarship dollars in the shortest amount of time and with the least amount of effort.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The Arthritis Foundation says arthritis is a leading cause of disability and affects adults and children. Tuesday morning, at its annual breakfast, the foundation affirmed its commitment to a cure.
Guests and supporters packed the Ramada Hotel and Convention Center for the eight annual fundraiser with Maryland basketball coach Mark Turgeon returning to his hometown as keynote speaker for the event.
"Whenever you can help and give back, you want to do [it]," Turgeon said, adding that he was here to support Voice of the Jayhawks broadcaster Chris Piper and his daughter, who has juvenile arthritis.
Organizers like Tarri Woolery say they know the pain and cost of arthritis first-hand. Woolery was diagnosed at age 13. "It took a long time to get on the right medication, so in between seeing the right doctors I became completely bed-ridden and lost all mobility in my right hand and my legs and had to rely on my parents to carry me everywhere," Woolery, a member of the organizing committee, said. Woolery is completely cured now and she says, "I want to keep going to find other people's miracle drugs."
The Arthritis Foundation provides research, education and vital services to combat the disease.

Atelier Crenn [San Francisco]
My wife's 35th is coming up next weekend (Sept. 20/21) and I wanted to treat her to a special dinner at Crenn. Unfortunately, I didn't plan ahead and it looks like reservations are full for the Saturday evening.
I was wondering if it's worth visiting on another night and if it's possible to get the same experience on a Thursday or Friday? I ask because it's my understanding (according to details posted on the website) that the seasonal Chef's Tasting Menu is only available on Saturdays, which is undoubtedly why it's so difficult to get a reservations as all dates are booked through to the new year!
Can anyone tell me what the main difference between the Saturday chef's tasting menu and the regular degustation menu is? Why would Crenn only be offering their full course tasting menu on a Saturday night; I can't think of any other Michelin restaurants who do anything similar?
Assuming it's impossible for us to get into Crenn, could you please offer some other similar alternatives? She was at French Laundry with friends several months back; I was considering Meadowood perhaps?
I'm looking for a very special ocassion dining, either destination or within the Bay Area and price is not a factor or consideration.
Our best (Stateside) meal to date has been Eleven Madison Park in NYC this past June. I'm not sure that there's anything in Northern California that can come close to replicating such an experience, however that's been her benchmark ever since.
Which of the Michelin ** dining rooms in the city are as strong as Crenn and offer as unique an experience in terms of innovation inside the kitchen while maintaining a balance with end results (over pretense and experimentation) and with equally interesting plating and great atmosphere to match?
Thanks for any and all suggestions!!
Did you call the restaurant to check this?
I've never heard of the limitation that you can only get the chef menu on Saturday.
I think you can get it all nights, and there's no indication of the limitation on their web site.
I'd go with Crenn if you can, it's delightful.
If that won't work out, I'd go to La Folie, or possibly Saison...
re: pauliface
What Pauliface said -- I go to Crenn once a year (sometimes mid-week and sometimes on weekends) and have never seen a difference. I would call the restaurant.
That said, it is an EXCEPTIONAL experience.
re: CarrieWas218
I think the language is confusing. I think they mean that the only thing you can order on saturday is the grand tasting and that the degustation is not available (on saturday). Difference between "only the chef's" and "only on saturdays"
It's not that booked up. There are tables this Saturday.
For better or worse, their plating is in a class by itself.
There was some great discussion about other dining options around Point Reyes and Tomales Bay that we split out into its own thread. Check it out here: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/916832 !
Atelier Crenn is excellent. A very enchanting experience with a strong emphasis on narrative. The menu reads poetically, but more importantly the dishes reflect a seasonal narrative (in Fall, it focused much on root vegetables opening with beets and ending with a beet sorbet with a chocolate "stem" above a bowl of "soil." It does indeed feel like special occasion dining, and certainly one of San Francisco's very best. Chef Crenn has paid a lot of attention to creating a cohesive aesthetic from the food presentation to the decor, and it feels very "class" without being old-world stuffy. As for the food, she uses temperature and texture to interesting effects without getting gimmicky. The one dish I did not care for was the "walk in the forest" mushrooms with a douglas fir meringue, although it could be personal taste (i found it too sweet), because i know others consider it a very good dish. Flavor combinations were largely very successful. For me the standout dish has always been the grains with warm dashi, trout roe, and salmon (this dish has changed slightly through different seasons). I had the chef's grand tasting menu at Atelier Crenn on either a Tuesday or Thursday night, so it certainly is not only for Saturdays. I had a great meal and a very memorable experience at Atelier Crenn - not only is the food enjoyable, but the presentation of the food and aesthetic of the whole restaurant feels special. It is solid 2-star Michelin in my opinion, all things considered.
Manresa is also fantastic. You get the sense that Chef Kinch is a master in control of his talents and the ingredients. Flavor combinations are very well-thought out and there's some astounding dishes there. I remember the raw milk panna cotta with abalone and abalone jus-dashi gelee (like a chawanmushi), and the duck with honey, milk skin, and fig. I think the food is actually a bit better at Manresa than Atelier Crenn, but it's different of course. Manresa's cuisine feels like a delicate and nuanced mix of French, Japanese, and Catalan that speaks very much of the time (season) and place of California. Manresa does not seem to be too concerned about creating a narrative for the menu like Crenn was, not that it's a good or bad thing. Manresa feels like classy fine dining, in a slightly different way then Crenn, but both make for excellent meals. To me, Manresa should have 3 Michelin Stars - it is heads and shoulders above any 1-star Michelin restaurant in the Bay Area and 2 is not enough distinction. It is destination dining for sure. Note: Manresa is a bit of a drive from San Francisco - it took me about 1 hour.
For me, the strongest meal is at Saison. Saison is absolutely destination dining, it of all places must be a 3-star Michelin restaurant in my book. I did this right back-to-back after Manresa, and I found Saison to be the very best in terms of food - Manresa is excellent all around with a few incredible dishes, but Saison hits higher highs continually. For me, in terms of flavor, you have all very good to excellent dishes at Atelier Crenn, at Manresa you have excellent to maybe 2-3 incredible dishes, but at Saison you have all fantastic and maybe 8-9 incredible dishes. I felt that at Saison, I was tasting the very purest expression of each ingredient, amplified or distilled to its maximal flavor. The only way I can describe the food at Saison is that the flavors are very pure but incredibly nuanced and complex. I had a hard time choosing a favorite dish, there's just so many high points that become reference dishes for me.
Saison feels a bit more casual than Manresa (80's music + no dress code) but it's still very much a special occasion restaurant. Saison is more expensive than Atelier Crenn and Manresa, but in my opinion, it's worth it. You cannot go wrong with any of the 3. With that said, I would be very happy to return to any of the 3, but I am saving up for Saison.

Dec 19, 2012Kerberos has done a wonderful job trying to polish this game, the ideas behind it really are awesome. But, as a life long strategy gamer, I find myself playing a game that truly is still in beta a year after its release. The ui is not intuitive some basic game functions are hard to find and require reading the company forums to understand. The AI is like playing a toddler and even often kills itself rather then offer a challenge. There are numerous bugs while playing the game and a common theme seems to be that with every patch come new bugs, some worse then the ones that were fixed. The Enhanced Edition, in my opinion, moved this game from an alpha phase to a mid beta phase. But even facing bugs constantly and having the game CTD every 5 turns in one game it still gives me the "just one more turn" feeling. At least until you get to late game , which with the lacking diplomacy and intel options and with the need to extremely micro manage it just gets old. I would pass on purchasing this game until at least the next expansion, but if you do buy it you have been warned.… Expand
Jan 24, 2013Sequel to one of my favorite strategy games of all time, SOTS 2 is prime example of ambitions overgrowing actual capabilities. Launch of the game was a disaster: it wasn't even a beta. Now, after tons of patches and free expansion with new playable race, Sots 2 is definitely better at every aspect - but it still falls way short of meeting expectations. It's very complex game, with great variety of options and possible strategies - however, it is also one of the least approachable games I have ever seen. Unclear interface, cryptic tooltips and utter lack of any tutorial in game are obstacles for any new players. If you manage to overcome them, you will find good sides of this game - and they are plenty. However, they all fade when you realize that AI is COMPLETELY broken, and does not present any threat whatsoever. Seriously - computer controlled empires not only cannot beat player, they also fail to defend against random encounters game throws at them and often collapse due to missmanegement of economy and mounting debt. I am willing to bet that anyone giving this game super-high score has not played it long enough to actually measure AI capabilities. Maybe after another year it will get acceptable - for now, if you value single player at least, I recommend to stay away from this game.… Expand
May 21, 2013If you bought this game, I'm sorry you wasted your money. I bought this game thinking that it would be an improvement on the original, however it's not. Everyone is 100 times more complicated. The game is beyond buggy, and the managed to suck all the fun from it. This one will never be as good as the first.
Apr 7, 2014A long time has passed since launch, and SOTS2 is at last in a playable state although still very unstable on some machines. And straight it goes in the book called "what could have been great". This game is far too ambitious for what it manages to accomplish.
Ship design is fun and allows for a lot of strategic depth, and this is where the "actually good bits" ends. While some battles are indeed fun, in this kind of game you do get a lot of very similar, repetitive battle. Well, you will have to fight ALL battles yourself, as the automated AI is dsurprisingly incompetent. There is something deeply wrong with how battles are handled and sometimes the best strategy is "point the ships far away and wait for the timer to run out".
Random events become very annoying after a certain point: you will have to deal again and again and again with the same nuisances. Speaking of that, there are a lot of annoying things that shold just have been left out. Diplomacy is one of those. Either do it properly or don't do it at all. Another one is the lore, which is just embarassing. Just ignore it and look at the ships. Building freighters one by one instead of having a way to automate the process is just stupid.
However, most of all, the excruciatingly slow pace coupled with the need to fight every battle make playing this game a very frustrating experience, and don't forget about the occasional bug that will simply make an entire fleet disappear, or a planet will stop being regarded as colonized for no reason and all ships in reserve will be lost.… Expand
Feb 28, 2013Too little, too late. The UI is terrible, the AI is terrible. If you must have a space empire builder buy its predecessor. no missions. tooltips are cryptic to say the least, so i suggest reading the manual before you even try to have a go.
Aug 22, 201331 employees of Paradox writing reviews? I can't see how anyone would give this above a 6 rating. But the proof of the mater can probably be seen that only 43 people have bothered to review the game.
More than a year after the initial release, this game has been polished, but it's a polished turd. None of the fun or playability of the first Sword of the Stars, the only thing that might be seen as an improvement is the ship models, but they are largely covered up by obnoxious looking "badges" that look like something from a 1980s clip-art collection, then once the fighting starts (if your game doesn't crash and you give up in frustration before you even meet another empire to fight) horribly garish disco lights are what we get for combat effects.
Save your time, money and sanity and stay away from this title.… Expand
Sep 24, 2013Kerboros is a smaller development studio whose ideas are always much larger than their technical prowess. Kerberos games tend to be full of amazing ideas, and always drip with potential, but are ultimately ruined by bugs, glitches, poor optimization, or other technological snafus. So let it be with Sword of the Stars II. There is something unethical in releasing a somewhat fixed version of an older game that was utterly unplayable, slapping an "enhanced edition" moniker on it, and calling it a game...but that is exactly what you get here. A mostly working game that feels like it needs another six months in the incubator, even in later 2013.… Expand
Feb 21, 2013Sword of the Stars II: Enhanced Edition is getting there, three steps forward and two steps back. But for gods sake, start creating enemies, not stupid names with some attributes! And hey, diplomacy between mighty star empires is not handled by SMS messages! [Feb 2013]
Feb 6, 2013Sword of the Stars II is exhausting. It has a genius to its depth of strategy, customization, and lore, and its ambition is unmatched by perhaps any other 4X title out there, but trying to reach the fruit of any of those qualities leaves one fastened to the sappy bark of labyrinthine menus and a glacial pace. Amidst the high pedigree of the 4X genre, there simply is no reason to play this.
Jan 9, 2013A game that confuses "more" with "better" and "depth". A classic example of second-system effect. Every decade needs its own "Master of Orion 3", I guess.
