Photos and Description of this 4 bedroom holiday villa in Siena - VENCIANA 8+4 / 8 sleeps, Tuscan stone-villa with park and pool near Castelnuovo Berardenga, Siena
Sleeps 12, 4 bedroom 3 bathroom
Venciana is located on an isolated hill, in an area to the south of the Chianti territory, between Arezzo and Siena (both less than half an hour away by car), in a typical landscape covered by jumbled woods and rows of olive trees. It was originally a farmhouse and still reflects the original separation of the areas that were once used as the dwelling (top floor) and the farm shed (ground floor); careful renovation has transformed it into an attractive country home with stone exterior and rustic interior, with exposed beams and terracotta floors. Surrounded by a large, well-kept garden with a rich assortment of plants, fruit trees and flowers, stretching to the green hills around it, it is the perfect place for guests to relax and enjoy the peaceful Siena countryside but also to be able to make short trips to explore a territory with rich wine and food traditions and important artistic and naturalistic centres, such as that of Chianti that winds along the wine route which, passing through the beautiful villages of Gaiole, Radda, Panzano and Greve, leads to Florence; also to be discovered are the fascinating villages of Montalcino and Pienza, immersed in the stunning setting of the Val d'Orcia, or Montepulciano and San Gimignano: a unique experience that combines art, nature and culture, where the leitmotif is the delicious nectar that here reaches its sublime expression.

The house consists of 3 units, each with independent access: two on the ground floor (with direct access to the portico with dining area) and one on the top floor. The main entrance, on the ground floor, opens onto the living area consisting of a single room with fully-equipped kitchen and dining area. From here you go into a small hallway with double bedroom (and direct access to the outside via a French window) and a bathroom with shower. The second unit, accessible through two French windows next to the main entrance, consists of a large double bedroom with additional double sofa bed and ensuite bathroom with shower. The room has direct access to another portico at the back of the house. An external staircase leads up to the top floor with the third unit - a living room with fireplace and satellite TV (with a double sofa bed) leads to a short corridor with two double bedrooms with queen-size bed and a bathroom with two showers. The floor is completed by a spacious kitchenette/laundry.
In the vast park surrounding the villa, immersed in silence and fenced-in for about 3 hectares, olive trees alternate with manicured lawn areas and a varied vegetation. Fruit trees, such as cherries and figs, line one side of the garden whilst around the house are beds of geraniums and rose bushes. The large portico in front of the kitchen, framed by fragrant climbing jasmine, is set up for outdoor dining, with a brick-built barbecue just a short distance away. At the back, a second portico is the perfect place where guests can relax and admire the view of the beautiful hilly landscape. Along the private driveway is the covered parking area belonging to the property.
Swimming Pool
The fenced-in pool is positioned in a large sunny area, in the middle of the park and next to the house which is about 35 m away. The circular pool, with travertine border and lined in PVC, measures 53 sq m, and is provided with a ladder for access to the water. There is a cold-water shower and lighting inside the pool and in the garden surrounding it. The purification system is chlorine.

- Studio: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM)
- Release Date: Jun 22, 2007
- Starring: John Cusack, Mary McCormack, Samuel L. Jackson
- Summary: Renowned horror novelist Mike Enslin (Cusack) only believes what he can see with his own two eyes. After a string of bestsellers discrediting paranormal events in the most infamous haunted houses and graveyards around the world, he scoffs at the concept of an afterlife. Enslin's phantom-free run of long and lonely nights is about to change forever when he checks into suite 1408 of the notorious Dolphin Hotel for his latest project, "Ten Nights in Haunted Hotel Rooms." Defying the warnings of the hotel manager (Jackson), the author is the first person in years to stay in the reputedly haunted room. Another bestseller may be imminent, but like all Stephen King heroes, Enslin must go from skeptic to true believer - and ultimately survive the night. [MGM]… Expand

Swedish director Mikael Hafstrom creates a compelling ride of a movie. Every beat of the film is weighted with significance, and our mounting dread becomes almost intolerable.
This is the old stuff, the good stuff, the tried-and-true stuff of shrewdly accomplished audience manipulation.
Swift, sharp adaptation of Stephen King's short story (from the "Everything's Eventual" collection).
In the grand scheme of things, the Dolphin Hotel is no Overlook, but it's no cheesy slaughter motel either.
For about an hour or so, 1408 has you thinking you're watching The Next Great Horror Movie: That's how good the first half of this adaptation of Stephen King's short story about a haunted hotel room is.
Really wanting to get into our heads, 1408 tries awfully hard to play both sides of logic's boundary line -- tries and fails, and then succeeds, only to ultimately fail again. On the whole, the frights are frighteningly erratic.
In the end, 1408 amounts to little more than a radical shock-therapy session for a man still finding his way after the loss of his daughter.

Apr 29, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Given that King adaptations are typically awful jokes, 1408 merits praise merely for being not abysmal. That said - it's a good little chiller that should have been great. So much is wonderful, including Cusack's droll awareness of playing the same, weary, cynical dude. The settings, the silences, the pacing - all grand, really. What goes wrong? TOO MUCH EXPOSITION, and the misleading kind. Based on the first 30 minutes, 1408 is beyond deadly. It's sadistic, vile, and very, very fast, given the self-mutilations which have occurred within it, and in mere minutes. But Cusack's experience, a few harmless phantoms aside, isn't terrifying; it's all about sadness and his personal despair. I expect more from a room that induces a maid to stab her eyes out in mere seconds.
But - hey, it's all right. And the hotel window/ledge scenes are bloody fabulous.… Expand
DavidK.Sep 1, 2007Great film if you ask me, a little weird and at a few bits u may be confused but, seriously not many films of recent or past made me jump or be scared like this one did, Now don't call me a wimp because I'v seen my fair share of horror's as I am a horror fanatic and have seen many many many horrors.… Expand
joehMay 25, 2009Good movie, not perfect, but very very chilling. Honestly, in a world where horror movies are much better than they are now, I may not like this movie very much, but with all the crap we have to sit through, I actually enjoyed have a film really creep me out. I though the shining was mindnumbingly boring when I first watched it. I read the book and LOVED it, so I assumed the movie would be the classic it was hailed as. Turns out it was just a kid riding a trike for half an hour and some goofy close ups of shelly Duvall and Jack Nicklson. The reason I tried this movie was actually BECAUSE of the PG-13 rating; I figured if the producers felt confident releasing a horror film that wasn't an R than they must have something good. Turns out this movie is one of the best psychological thrillers I have ever seen. It was both intelligent as well relatable, without trying to hard to have a moral theme. The movie just IS scary, playing of your emotions and inner most fears, and not the visceral ones either, your REAL fears, even the ones you may not have realized you had. Of course it's not perfect, and it drags in a few spots, But the plot twists and writing (plus Cusak's performance) make for a GENUINELY scary film. I can understand why some might think the movie was a little haphazard or not fully realized (I never read the short story, so I can't comment on that), but if you don't like it because it's not a gore fest than grow an imagination and step outside your little world of superviolence for something that ACTUALLY has substance.… Collapse
Feb 23, 20131408 is one of those movies you're either going to really love or really hate. It's long, and at times, not easy to sit through, but if you're a fan of Stephen King, you should be used to that. This is vintage King and it's done right! When people don't like the movie, right away they go after the writer. They don't realize that a lot of times things are drastically changed to make them more visually appealing. In a horror flick, that's usually means and/or gore, which are out of place in a King story. 1408 has none of that, it's just a good old fashion horror story about a room that possesses it's residence. The acting isn't going to blow you away, there aren't very many surprises as far as the story goes, but it's a scary story, done the way the master of horror intended and I liked it!… Expand
BillyS.Jun 25, 2007The only thing that keeps 1408 from being a typical "Lets spend the night in a haunted house" movie is John Cusack. Though this isn't up to his usual impeccable script choices, his performance is, as always, much better than the material calls for. Samuel L. Jackson has a little more than a cameo but his name looks good on the one-sheets. 1408 is light years ahead of the usual slasher/gore flicks but it is not the thinking mans horror flick the critics say it is. A good horror flick doesn't steal endings from an episode of Dallas!!… Expand
MattW.Jun 29, 2007Started out with and interesting premise, and kept my attention for about and hour, but like most horror flicks had no way to keep it going or anyway to end the story. All in all, it would be worth catching on pay-per-view late at night on Halloween when you are all alone.… Expand
JohnPNov 15, 2007Cusack has long been one of my favorite NON high profile actors because of his choice of movies in general. But alas he lost me on this one. This movie was simply a recylced FX vehicle and if anyone thinks it was more than that then they looked way too hard and deep. As is many American movies the beginnings have promise and then falter into the writers abyss. By that I mean they run out of any credible imagination, originality and passion. If your not going to make any sense at least attempt to be entertaining, which this movie was not. This movie on the making sense level was close to The Lakehouse and that my friends was baddddd. So.. not in great company I must say. Think I'll go and write a screenplay, never have attempted one but heck sure as hell couldn't be as bad.… Expand

text: FARMINGDALE - Federal student Stafford loans are at the center of an election year battle, as loan interest rates are expected to double if Congress doesn't act by July.It's a scary deadline for more than 7 million college students across the country, who will have to pay 6.8 percent interest rates on government-subsidized loans if Congress doesn't pass legislation to prevent it. The current rate is 3.4 percent, but keeping rates low could come with a cost.The Republican-controlled House passed a bill today that provides $6 billion to maintain low interest rates for student loans by slashing funds from President Obama's health care law.The bill will now go to the Democrat-controlled Senate where it's expected to die. If it doesn't, the president has vowed to veto it.

by Washington DC Office of Public Policy
March 2004
To mark the
60th Birthday of the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund
(IMF), Jubilee USA is leading an Un-Happy Birthday Card campaign to draw
attention to the devastating effects that the policies of these institutions
have had on the economies of the developing world (see back for more
details.) For years, the Women's Division and United Methodist Women have
supported the efforts of those working to achieve economic justice for the
indebted countries of the developing world. In 1997, United Methodist
Women began participating in a multi-year campaign to petition heads of
government and international banking institutions to "cancel or drastically
reduce the debts of poor countries, and to re-direct funds to neglected social,
education, environmental needs."[i] The Women's Division is a donor
to both Jubilee USA and Jubilee South, sister organizations working in the
United States and around the world to end the global debt crisis. In
April 2000, seven UMWs came to Washington, D.C. to participate in the Jubilee
2000 Drop the Debt March, where they encouraged the U.S. Congress to make a
greater commitment to debt relief.
After World
War II, the World Bank was created to aid war-torn countries with the process
of reconstruction and development through loan assistance. The
International Monetary Fund (IMF), also developed after World War II, was
created to stabilize foreign currency exchange rates, regulate the international
monetary system, and eliminate currency restrictions relating to trade in goods
and services. Since then, both the World Bank and IMF have shifted from
their original focus on post-World War II economies of Western Europe to their
current focus on the highly impoverished nations of the developing world.
The observance of the World Bank and IMF's 60th birthday this year
is an opportunity to shed light on the role that these international
organizations have played in contributing to poverty in the developing world.
The World
Bank currently offers loans to the governments of developing countries for a
variety of development projects, including the construction of bridges,
highways and power plants, the development of local industries, and loan
assistance. The Bank manages a loan portfolio totaling US$200 billion and
in 2002 loaned US$28.9 billion to over 80 countries.[ii]
Over the course of the past few decades, developing countries have accumulated
astronomic debts to the World Bank. Efforts to repay those debts, and the
interest that has accrued on them, drain billions of dollars away from poor
countries each year, leaving them unable to provide services like health care
and education to their citizens. An estimated $10-15 billion a year could
turn back AIDS in Africa, which claims 7,000 lives a day. However,
sub-Saharan Africa pays almost $15 billion in debt service payments to
developed nations and financial institutions every year, leaving little
resources with which to address this dire public health crisis.[iii]
The IMF offers funds to developing countries facing problems with their
financial markets or economic imbalances between their imports and
exports. However, this funding is only made available after borrowers
agree to make significant changes to their economies. Often these changes
come in the form of structural adjustment programs (SAPs.) An SAP is a
policy package geared to open up a developing country's economy to free trade
and foreign investment. SAPs call for the privatization of government-run
goods and services (like public utilities), the easing of labor regulations, an
emphasis on exports, and overall cuts in government spending.[iv]
Structural adjustment programs have wreaked havoc on the developing
world. IMF budget restrictions on the economy of Brazil led to a 50%
reduction in funding for the enforcement of environmental regulations and
supervision programs.[v] Industries dominated by women
are particularly hard hit by the high interest rates and economic slowdowns
that result from SAPs. In 1998, IMF-imposed policies in South Korea led
to the closing of approximately 53,000 business where women made up the largest
proportion of workers.[vi]
at the World Bank and the IMF are made by a vote of the Board of Executive
Directors, which is made up of representatives from member countries.
Unlike the United Nations where member states each have an equal vote, voting
power at the World Bank and IMF is determined by each country's financial
contribution. Since the United States is the largest donor country, it
wields roughly 17% of the vote. The world's seven largest industrialized
countries make up 45% of the vote. Developing countries, whose economies
and societies are deeply impacted by World Bank and IMF programs and policies,
do not have the access to make their voices heard or to affect the
decision-making processes in these institutions.
countries facing massive debt burdens benefit greatly from debt relief, funding
from wealthy countries that can be applied toward debt payments. Tanzania
received $3 billion in debt relief and has used the savings to increase
education spending and eliminate school fees for elementary school
education. Almost overnight, roughly 1.6 million children returned to
school.[vii] Debt relief made it possible
for Mozambique to increase health spending by $13.9 million. The
Mozambican government has spent $10 million on extending electricity services
to rural schools and hospitals and $3.2 million to increase the number of girls
attending school.

petition, and a focus on research and advanced training. In the American ecosystem, by contrast, there is significant diversity among research universities in size, geography, and missions. The ecosystem is characterized by decentralization, pluralism (public and private institutions), diverse funding sources (endowment, federal, state, tuition), high levels of competition, and a hybrid model that includes undergraduate education, graduate study, and research "in the same place, done by the same people, frequently at the same time."5 These distinctions have made our ecosystem extremely productive. Indeed, the success of the U.S. system has prompted others to move toward our system, for example, the ongoing debates about the higher education sector in the United Kingdom.
The U.S. ecosystem and its productivity, argues Jonathan Cole, is importantly defined by "unprecedented, vast" federal funding for science and technology research. Hugh Graham and Nancy Diamond note that higher education grew substantially in the post–World War II era because of growing economic prosperity, the baby boom, and revolution in federal science policy. The last of these more specifically drove the expansion of the nation's research universities. And, as a consequence, "American universities, not widely respected in the international community of scholars and scientists prior to World War II, subsequently won preeminence among the world's leading institutions."6
The U.S. ecosystem and its productivity, argue Graham and Diamond, also are importantly defined by a large, competitive, national market for faculty in which state funding has also played a critical role. This market emerged among a small set of prominent institutions between 1900 and 1925. In this system, faculty careers were defined by upward mobility through lateral movement that made the curriculum vitae all important, a primary attachment to profession rather than institution, and research productivity. In this environment, public research universities could only provide salaries competitive with those of private research universities through economies of scale and state appropriations.7
Measuring the direct contribution of universities, through this federal-state-university partnership, on the economy and society is a complex task,8 yet a series of indicators reveal a pattern of quality and impact.

B-day dinner in Cambria/San Simeon area?
- foodseeker Oct 16, 2007 02:12 PM
Am from Los Angeles, but will be celebrating my birthday in the Cambria area this weekend. Am considering either the Black Cat or Robins. Any thoughts on which would be better? Or, any additional suggestions? Love creative, fresh food in a wonderful ambience.
Thanks in advance, chowhounds! Any ideas welcome.
Take a look at their menus and also give consideration to The Sow's Ear.
Not much of quality in San Simeon.
My favorite place near Cambria is Hoppe's in Cayucos, which is about 10 minutes away down Hwy 1. Great food and wine list.
Black Cat in Cambria!!! Great food, attentive service, my new husband and I had three amazing meals there on our wedding trip to Big Sur. Ask for Alexis, she is real food person and has a razor sharp ability to pair food and wine.
If you want "ambience"....go up the coast a bit further to Big Sur and experience Nepenthe.
I need to figure out how to post a link to my photos from the Sea Chest restaurant on Moonstone Beach Drive. If you see those photos, you will definitely make it a point to eat there. There are no reservations, they only take cash and there is always a line to get in. Get there by 5 and you will be assured a seat by the window. They cook the freshest seafood and seafood pasta plates that I've ever had and the view is incredible of course...
Robins is always a favorite of mine. If you are willing to make a quick drive Windows on the Water in Morro Bay is very romantic and you can not beat the view!
Thanks for all of your great responses! We ended up going to the Black Cat in Cambria - and what a treat!! I have to say - it was one of the most wonderful meals we have had in a long time, and such great service and atmosphere. The food was creatively prepared, and there were so many wonderful dishes to choose from. The service was also wonderful and it ended up being a very special evening. I would definitely recommend the Black Cat to anyone in the Cambria area for a delightful evening. Thanks again chowhounds for all the recs and thoughts! Much appreciated.

Nice wading boot, but still need to make the ease of changing the soles a bit easier. This is the second pair of Korkers that I've purchased and like the boot, but the sole is a bit difficult to lock into place when changed out.

'Northern Trespass' talk at film hosted by NBA player Matt Bonner

"And ultimately, I want to increase awareness. Whether you're for it or against it, you're free to draw your own conclusions. The important thing is that people are aware of it because it's something that will affect everybody," he said.
"It hit the nail on the head," she said. "It didn't shy away from the truth. And it was not an extremist position."
"It really raises issues that people don't really talk about, like the health issues and the promise of jobs," he said.
Martin Murray, Northern Pass project spokesman, called the information in the video "inaccurate and outdated."
"It is heavily focused on the false threat of eminent domain, which has been addressed by state law for over a year now," Murray said in a statement. "The current proposed route was created by working with willing landowners. The producers surely are aware of the facts surrounding this issue, yet chose to mislead the public."
He added: "New Hampshire is ready to debate this project on its merits, through honest debate. Unfortunately, this video only serves to distort the truth and mislead the public."

November 27, 2014
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Fire officials say utility crews are trying to solve an apparent structural electrical problem after a series of separate laundry room fires at a townhome complex east of the Las Vegas Strip.
No injuries were reported after Clark County firefighters doused flames about 3:30 a.m. Thursday at a building on Oakbrook Lane near Twain Avenue and Swenson Street.
Deputy Fire Chief Erik Newman says investigators found a hidden electrical short-circuit had been heating wire mesh embedded in exterior stucco and metal roofing.
He says firefighters founded charred wooden framework that may have smoldered for hours before flames broke out.
Newman says it was the third similar hidden fire since Dec. 15 in the complex of two-story townhomes.
Newman says NV Energy is working on the problem.

BALTIMORE - Mike Sawyer scored five goals, and top-seeded Loyola never trailed in a 17-5 win over Canisius in the opening round of the NCAA men's lacrosse tournament on Saturday.
Eric Lusby added three goals, and Scott Ratliff scored twice for the Greyhounds (15-1), who will face the winner of Saturday night's Denver-North Carolina game in next Saturday's quarterfinals round at Navy.
Loyola, which won its first NCAA tournament game since 1998, pulled away from Canisius (6-8) with authority by scoring the first 13 goals of the second half. That turned a 4-3 halftime lead into a 17-3 advantage with 6:29 left in the game.
With his five goals, Sawyer increased his total to 50, tying him for the school's single-season record.
Sawyer, who scored all of his goals in the second half, got Loyola back on track after a frustrating second quarter by scoring three of the Greyhounds' first four goals of the second half, as Loyola opened up an 8-3 lead with 3:49 left in the third quarter.
Loyola took a 4-0 first-quarter lead, but Canisius rallied with a 3-0 run in the second quarter.

3 Celebrity-Inspired Holiday Hair How-Tos
If there's one time of year to have a standout hairstyle, it's the holidays! We love the idea of getting glam for the season's parties, but we don't want to spend too much of our time off in the salon. So, we invited Tim Rogers celebrity hairstylist and the creative director at Living Proof to stop by our office and teach us a few simple (but special!) DIY styles. Read on for a step-by-step guide that will have you holiday party-ready in no time.

Twisted Top Knot
"Placement is key," Tim told us. "Everyone's face shape is different, so you need to make sure the knot isn't too high on the head — the back of the crown is universally flattering." Pull the top half of your hair back into a ponytail, making sure the front doesn't look too slicked back. It should appear as if the hair was "raked" with your fingers.
