Summer holidays in NorwayDiscover glaciers, fjords and a sun that never sets...
Ronnie McCluskey
HomeAway travel expert
One glance at a map and many would instantly dismiss Norway as a potential summer holiday destination. It does, after all, share its latitude with the likes of Alaska and Greenland. It may therefore come as some surprise to learn that the northernmost country in Scandinavia can reach temperatures between 25°C and 30°C in the peak months, making it something of an unheralded gem amongst Brit holidaymakers. Although far from guaranteed, when the sun comes out certain points are ideal for swimming, walking or generally basking in the warm weather.
Of course, it's not all about the weather. The best summer holidays rarely are. Even if you find yourself caught in a downpour, it's all about making memories that will last forever, and Norway has plenty about it to guarantee just that. HomeAway is here to help you soak up everything this vast, varied and beautiful country has to offer. Have a look at our range of rental properties situated throughout Norway, each and every one designed to ensure you have the perfect base for your trip. And to get you in the mood, take a read at our quick guide to some of the best locations you might want to check out.
Top five Norway summer holiday destinations
Summer holidays in Oslo
The capital city is usually a natural choice for visitors to any country, and the Norwegians have a metropolis to be proud of in Oslo. Diversity is the key here, with a rich mixture of history, culture and architecture to take in. The Vigelandsparken Sculpture museum is a unique oddity, an open-air museum dedicated to 212 works by Gustav Vigeland. Elsewhere, you can enjoy a day of thrills and excitement at Tusenfryd Theme Park, or discover the country's lineage at the Viking Ship museum. The latter is home to two of the world's most perfectly preserved tall ships, dating back to the 9th century.

Summer holidays in North Cape
Why not venture beyond the margins of the towns and cities, into the wilderness of the Arctic Circle? Well, almost. That's where you'll find the mesmeric North Cape, the most breathtaking natural beauty spot in all of Scandinavia. Atop the plateau you'll feel on top of the world - and given its proximity to the North Pole, you won't be all that far off! This is the perfect spot to experience Norwary's famous midnight sun, the natural phenomena during which daylight is perpetual. If you're lucky, you might even view the marvel that is the Northern Lights. Natural wonders aside, activities in the area are plentiful, with rafting, hiking and bird safaris all popular ventures.
Summer holidays in Alesund
Drop a pin onto a map of Norway and you're odds-on to land on some picturesque setting. That's simply a quality the country happens to be endowed with. It therefore speaks volumes for the pedigree of Alesund that the citizens of Norway voted it as the most beautiful town within their borders. The shipping port sits on a small peninsula on the west coast, emerging dramatically from the Fjords that engulf it. A small yet vibrant place, the Art Nouveau architecture feels like it could be lifted straight from a fairytale. Gastronomically speaking, the seafood on offer at any given restaurant is nigh on unrivalled, testament to the fishing trade at the heart of town.

Summer holidays in Geirangerfjord
What would a trip to Norway be without experiencing the majesty of the famous Fjords? These are the glacial valleys that you see on countless brochures and websites touting the country's highlights: almost invariably, the said photos will have been taken at the Geirangerfjord. One glance with your own eyes makes it abundantly clear why. The best way to experience the Fjord is by boat, drifting along past the Seven Sisters and Suitor waterfalls, shrouded by thoroughly spectacular green mountains and rugged rocks. The area is blissfully tranquil, and you can't help but feel a tinge of jealousy towards those fortunate enough to occupy the village of Geiranger itself.

Summer holidays in Trondheim
Arguably the most significant cultural base that Norway has in its armoury, Trondheim is a small but glorious gem. Aside from its storied history, it has become a focal point for students of science and technology, cementing it as a veritable hotbed for nightlife. Aside from all of this, the city is far enough north that it is almost a gateway to the Arctic, giving scope for the wonderful clear blue skies and sights that go with the territory from an urban environment. The Christian heritage of Trondheim dictates that closing time at the bars and clubs is perhaps earlier than most places; but the well developed after-party culture should see you through to the wee small hours.

Often, hotels are where relationships start. But now, you can end them by "checking into" a luxury Divorce Hotel, PRI's TheWorld.org tells us.
We're not talking about a 300-room hotel filled with angry couples.
Instead, the report says, Dutch entrepreneur Jim Halfens has created the "Divorce Hotel" for couples capable of ending their marriage without lawyers during a three-day mediation process.
The process takes place in the luxury hotel of their choice.
TWITTER: Follow Hotel Check-In's BarbDelollis
PHOTO GALLERY: Hotel restaurants with beautiful views

They might check into the Hotel Karel the Fifth in Utrecht, which oozes charm and - yes - even romance, the story says. Lawyers aren't invited.
HOTELS: How would you like access to designer discounts?
"It's a divorce in three days, roundabouts, in a hotel," Halfens tells TheWorld.org.
Apparently, there are enough unhappy couples who have at least one thing in common - a love of high-end hotels - to keep interest high around the world.
Halfens tells TheWorld.org that people email him for more information from as far away as Brazil, Taiwan and Italy.
Only one country where you can 'check in'
Due to differences in divorce laws, however, he says only Dutch couples can participate although he's working on launching Divorce Hotel in Germany through partners.
But not everyone is suited to check into his Divorce Hotel.
Couples first go through an extensive interview process. Halfens looks for couples who can settle their differences quickly, the TheWorld.org tells us. They then pick a four- or five-star hotel, check in and get down to business.
Over three days, a mediator talks the couple through the divorce process. Other specialists – such as notaries and psychologists – are available as well, the story says.
The process is said to be a faster alternative to the regular process, which could normally take six to nine months - or longer if the parting is especially bitter.
A Divorce Hotel "stay" costs $3,500 instead of thousands more for an official divorce, the piece says.

Train hits man in Durham, passes over body in Greensboro
Updated On: Jan 13 2014 06:08:10 PM EST
Officials said an Amtrak train en route from Raleigh to Charlotte was delayed twice after hitting a pedestrian in Durham and passing over the body of another pedestrian on the tracks in Greensboro.
A man was hit about 12:30 p.m. Sunday on a railroad bridge in Durham by the Piedmont 75 train heading to Charlotte. No one on the train was hurt. The man's name has not been released.
Greensboro police said the same westbound train stopped near East Market Street around 4:15 p.m. after noticing something in between the rails. The conductor got off the train and discovered the body of Ricardo Aleman, 36, who doesn't have a permanent address.
Police initially said Aleman had been hit by the westbound train but said Monday he was instead hit by an eastbound train that was on the same track earlier on Saturday.
Police and Norfolk Southern Railroad are investigating the deaths.

Instagram CEO: Windows Phone and BlackBerry app not coming 'anytime soon', Google Glass app sometime after that
It looks as though it could still be a long time before Instagram finds its way onto the Windows Phone and BlackBerry platforms. This fact comes courtesy of Instagram's CEO, who noted during an interview that Google Glass is towards the bottom of their list for new platforms. This is because Instagram considers where its users are and where the growth is.
Shortly after explaining that a Glass app is towards the bottom of their list, Instagram CEO Kevin Systrom warned that BlackBerry and Windows Phone apps may not be coming anytime soon. "I'm just saying that in order of priority, the way we evaluate where to expand to is really simply where our users are, and where the growth is," the executive explained. "It took us a very long time to get to Android."
We're actually quite surprised that Instagram hasn't brought an app to the other mobile platforms as of yet. Instagram is owned by Facebook, a massive company that could easily afford to port the application to the other platforms. If you're planning on using Instagram on Google Glass just be warned that it could be a very long time until an app is released for the platform.
Square breaks out of its mobile payments shell and opens Etsy-like online market
When Square launched a few years ago, they changed the mobile payments market overnight with their little white plastic device that you to plug in your smartphone or tablet. Now Square is setting its sights on the online marketplace as well and is attempting to compete with Etsy, Amazon, and eBay by launching its own online marketplace called Square Market.
While the step from a mobile payment gateway to a online marketplace may seem a bit odd to some, this is actually part of Square's push for the company to deliver a product that answers each aspect of online commerce. At the moment, the company has a mobile wallet for consumers, a payment app for businesses, a $300 stand that turns your iPad into a point-of-sale system and it even has a project in the works that will compete with PayPal known as Square Cash.
"Creating an online marketplace is our next step in making commerce easy for everyone," said Ajit Varma, Square's director of discovery, in a statement. "The idea behind Square Market is to make local businesses accessible to Square users nationwide. Creating a storefront on Square Market is free, and sellers can manage list items, add product photos, manage inventory and create an online profile for their businesses that the company hopes will essentially eliminate the need for sellers to have standalone websites."
The online storefront itself is free, but transactions aren't. Square will take a 2.75 percent cut of revenue off each item sold, which is much less than what Amazon or eBay charges. It is even less than the $0.20 Etsy charges to list an item.

Twitch.tv app for Android gets major update, now allows users log in, still no chat or search
This morning, Twitch.tv is pushing out an update to their Android app that will finally allow users to log into their accounts which will give them much easier access to their personal favorite streams. Unfortunately, the list is still limited to the top 300 live streaming channels.
A search feature and a chat function are both still missing from the app, but community manager Jared Rea has mentioned that chat and search features for the app are in the works and will be released at some point in the future. While that sounds promising, you need to keep in mind that until three months ago, the app went an entire year without an update. However, the recent launch of the OUYA is being seen as "another incentive" to push development forward on the app.
Adults like Snapchat, app receives about 8M unique adult users per month from the US
Snapchat isn't just popular among teens and kids. According to Nielsen data, the app saw around eight million unique US users over the age of 18 during May. Furthermore, these weren't just one-off users. According to the same data, each user accessed the app an average of 34 times during the month of May, indicating that many users used the app more than once per day.
Of course, Snapchat won't share user numbers but instead prefers to share engagement numbers. On that front, Snapchat has seen the number of daily snaps go from around 60 million in February to around 200 million. Perhaps this wide popularity among both teens and adults explains why investors were willing to provide the company with $60 million and a valuation of $800 million, despite the company having no revenue.
Google launches new Google+ photo app for Chromebook Pixel
This morning, Google launched its new Google+ photos app for the Chromebook Pixel. Some of you may remember seeing this back when the Pixel was first launched. The app integrates with your Google+ account and will automatically upload photos from any SD card plugged into the device. This is similar to how Google+'s app works on Android phones and tablets.
The new photo app allows users to upload photos at full resolution or at Google's de facto 2048px wide resolution. The app is available via the Chromebook Pixel owner's portal, and for the moment, only those with Chromebook pixels are allowed to play. Google did allude to the app becoming available on other devices in the future but did not specify timeline for when that would happen.
The app appears to provide a seamless way to browse the photos uploaded to your Google+ account and I am betting that the amazing screen on the Chromebook Pixel really shows off the photos like no other device before it. The app also offers up basic editing tools that work in conjunction with Google+'s built in image editing software.
Google goes back to school, Google Play for Education is now accepting submissions
Google are stepping in a new direction with their latest announcement, in that they're accepting submissions for their Google Play for Education platform which will provide education- and age-appropriate applications to schools.
Google Play for Education will fall under the Play Store, but will allow bulk purchasing and content curation for apps, books and movies for K-12 schools. If a developer has an age-appropriate application, they can now mark it for inclusion, which will see a third-party group of educators review it.
This third-party of educators will review each and every app, reviewing its subject, grade level and whether or not it meets a set of development guidelines that have been set in place for the education system. Part of these guidelines see that the app must not collect personally identifiable information or use student data for noneducational use.

Snapchat raises $60M in funding, valued at a massive $800M
Snapchat seems to be doing very well for itself. It has experienced massive growth and is a major player in the mobile app market, despite Facebook's attempt to kill the app with Poke. The app boats 200 million "snaps" daily, meaning it's pushing quite a bit of data. For right now, the app doesn't seem to have a way to make money, so seed funding is important.
The company has confirmed that it raised $60 million in funding and saw itself garner an $800 million pre-money valuation. If you'll recall, Facebook bought Instagram for not much more than that. The company has raised a total of around $75 million since it debuted back in September 2011.
In order to continue scaling while developing the Snapchat experience, we needed to build a bigger engineering team and figure out how to pay our server bills. Long story short -- we're committed to building a big company around an innovative and fun product.
Imgur finally gets a mobile app on Android, iOS version coming
Imgur has finally joined the mobile revolution by creating its first app. The Imgur app is available on Android and will make it easier for Imgur users to browse the site, upload new pictures, and share or comment on existing photos. A native app will be much better than a mobile site or third-party app.
Imgur is often used in conjunction with Reddit. The mobile app offers all of the same features and a very similar experience as the main website. "We wanted the app to work just like the main site. We've been working on this six months and collecting feedback," said Imgur founder and CEO Alan Schaaf.
Imgur also has an iPhone app in the works, though Apple has rejected the app on multiple occasions. The first time was for DMCA issues, however, Imgur noted they are DMCA compliant. Apple then rejected the app on the grounds that it was too easy to find adult content. Imgur has made it more difficult to find such content in hopes that this will get the app accepted.

China Mobile closes registrations for their Skype competitor 'Jego'
Less than a month after China Mobile launched their Skype competitor, Jego, they've shut down registrations to it. China Mobile International, who is a global-focused China Mobile subsidiary, announced the closure of new account registrations for Jego.
They've also disabled Jego-to-Jego video and voice calls for customers who registered with a mainland China number and are located in mainland China. The company have posted up a message to the iTunes App Store and Google Play Store stating that new registrations for Jego have been suspended so that they can do "optimization" to the product and system, and will inform users of any changes.
Why the closure? Well, it could be because China Mobile have disabled Jego's new registrations because the service begun from its overseas subsidiary and not the mainland China company itself. This may have caused problems with regulations and the Chinese government on Internet-based telephone services in China.
RumorTT: Facebook working on a Flipboard-style mobile reading application
I was a big Flipboard fan, that was however, until I found Feedly. But, it looks like Facebook are working on a new dedicated story browser which is going by the codename or "Reader", according to the Wall Street Journal.
There aren't many details on Reader just yet, but it is reportedly important enough that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is closely involved. The social network aren't talking about their plans, but there is more truth to this rumor than usual as the social network recently added hashtag support as a "first step" toward helping users track topics.
This would make sense, if in the near future they do release a mobile reading app, hashtags are a perfect way to let users track important and current topics.

About Newcastle Airport
Newcastle Airport is the ninth largest airport in the United Kingdom and in the last year handled approximately 5.19 million passengers.
- The CAA recently named Newcastle as the fastest growing regional airport in the UK.
- Copenhagen Airport is the principal shareholder in the airport with 49% and the other 51% is owned by seven local authorities.
- Newcastle Airport lies in the heart of the North-East of England. With the A1 being the principal north south road, by-passing the city centre and leading directly to the airport, Newcastle International is one of the most accessible regional airports.
The History of Newcastle Airport
The airport was opened on 26th July 1935 by the Secretary of State of Air, Sir Phillip Cunliffe-Lister and all told, including a clubhouse, hangar, workshops, fuel, garage and grass runway it cost a total of £35,000 to build.
During the Second World War the main airport in the region was situated at Cramlington in Northumberland but after the war was over, the decision was made to focus development on the present airport site. Consequently, in the early 1950s, Jim Denyer, who was an ex-RAF fighter pilot was appointed as Airport Manager and as Newcastle Airport began to be used for package holidays, its annual passenger numbers were boosted to over 5,000 within a few years. At this point destinations included the Isle of Man, Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands.
Due to the dramatic increase in the package holiday market in the 1960s, Newcastle was forced to make further improvements in order to cope with the every higher demand for air travel. By the end of the decade therefore, the airport had a new runway, apron and control tower and these new additions were opened by the then-Prime Minister, Harold Wilson.
Passenger figures reached 700,000 by the 1970s and in 1978 the Government designated Newcastle International Category B status which meant that it became a regional international airport. By the end of the 1970s US flights were passing through Newcastle, including jumbo jets.
Still expanding to cope with demand, in the 1980s an £8 million development was instigated to provide improved check-ins, lounges, catering and duty free facilities. During this decade, passenger numbers continued to increase until Newcastle was handling around 1.24 million people a year.
During the following decade the extended and improved terminal building was completed and was officially opened in 1994 by the Princess Royal. Passenger numbers were still growing and actually reached a record breaking 1.67 million in the 1990s.
In 2000 a new £27 million extension was opened by Prime Minister Tony Blair and the first low cost airline arrived at the airport, with Go-Fly commencing a service to London Stansted and in March 2003, easyJet came to Newcastle.
Since then further extensions and renovations have taken place, which means that the airport is more than able to accommodate the 5 million passengers per year that now pass through its gates. With a new route added to the departure board every month on average, the number of destinations served from Newcastle continues to grow and now stands at 86 and there are still further plans for development in the pipeline.

NEW YORK, February 16, 2012 -- Parliamentarians from Africa, Brazil, Poland and the United States participated in a historic forum to discuss recommendations for Africa's growth and development to be shared at the upcoming African Union Heads of State Summit on the Diaspora, scheduled to take place May 25, 2012 in South Africa.
Organized by the World Bank's African Diaspora Program, the Pan-African Parliament and the United Nations Office for the Special Advisor on Africa, the forum gave policymakers and prominent civil society members from Africa and the Diaspora a unique opportunity to collaborate on common inputs for the summit.
"Parliamentarians and other elected officials have an important role to play in shaping the policies of their countries," said Cheick Sidi Diarra, United Nations Special Advisor on Africa. "Their role is central when it comes to economic and social development but also conflict prevention. More importantly, Diaspora parliamentarians can play a crucial role in influencing their countries' policies towards Africa."
The preparatory meeting also facilitated the formal establishment of the Parliamentary Forum for African and Diaspora Parliamentarians.
"I am pleased with the outcomes of this event," said Sally Dormeyan, Operations Officer, African Diaspora Program. "We now have a shared understanding of how the Parliamentary Forum for African and Diaspora Parliamentarians will operate and I believe this body has an important role to play in mobilizing the African Diaspora's contribution to Africa's growth and development, as well as promoting and encouraging the return to countries of origin of many African Diaspora(ns)."
The Pan-African Parliament (PAP), will be organizing another parliamentary preparatory meeting two days prior to the Heads of State Summit on the Diaspora in South Africa. African and Diaspora parliamentarians will utilize this forum to finalize their inputs and recommendations on Diaspora engagement for the African Heads of State and support them in their quest to ensure that their contributions reflect the voices of all members of parliament and the people of the constituencies that elected them.
The African Union hopes that the Parliamentary Forum will help galvanize African Diaspora participation in Africa's policy dialogue and national development. This enthusiastic collaboration between African and Diaspora leaders has the potential to enhance Africa's integration in the global economy by facilitating greater access to global decision-makers and thought leaders.

Iran's president-elect says economy will take time
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran's newly elected reformist-backed president said Sunday that the country's dire economic problems cannot be solved "overnight," as he took his first steps in consulting with members of the clerically dominated establishment on his new policies.
Hasan Rowhani's surprise victory in Friday's elections puts him in charge of an executive branch that traditionally has taken the lead in handling the economy, while nuclear efforts, defense and foreign affairs remain primarily in the hands of the ruling clerics and their powerful protectors, the Revolutionary Guard.

Spending on Glaucoma Meds Rising in U.S., Study Finds
Certain groups of patients, including those on public health insurance, seem to be most affected
MONDAY, June 13 (HealthDay News) -- Spending on medications for Americans with the eye disease glaucoma has increased overall and especially among certain groups of patients, a new study finds.
Researchers analyzed data from 1,404 patients aged 18 and older who used glaucoma medication between 2001 and 2006. The average amount spent per patient for glaucoma medications increased from $445 in 2001 to $557 in 2006.
Among the groups most likely to be associated with significant increases in spending on glaucoma medications were women, people who had only public health insurance and those who hadn't completed high school. Spending on glaucoma medications was higher among patients with Medicare Part D coverage than among those with private insurance, said Dr. Byron L. Lam, of the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in Miami, and colleagues.
Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness in the United States. As the country's population ages and more people develop glaucoma, spending on drugs to treat the condition is likely to increase, the study authors explained in the report published in the June 13 online edition of the journal Archives of Ophthalmology.
"The results of our study as well as an understanding of the factors that account for the increase in glaucoma medication expenditure are important to help develop effective strategies and protocols for the medical management of glaucoma that optimize treatment and control expenditures," the authors concluded.

Stevens Titling™ font family
Designed by John Stevens in 2011
Ryuichi Tateno in 2011
The Sable Brush variant also comes with a set of small capitals for beautiful, classical titles. An excellent alternative to the much overused Trajan™. Would excel anywhere you'd like to evoke the classical, refined, and elegant.
In the other three styles, the brush strokes are increasingly more evident. These varieties mean that Stevens Titling is all the more versatile, and would be fitting in everything from very formal invitations, through to identity and even posters and advertising.
Also, the individual fonts in the Stevens Titling family are not unfoundedly named after animals. The particular animals - the badger, boar, sable and wolf - are symbolic along with the attributes of their hair for the character of each section's brush stroke. The Badger font is firm and compact. The Boar is stalwart. The Sable is fine and elegant. And the Wolf is strong and shaggy.?

Our Featured Cleveland, OH Partner:
High Drive Pups Rescue
Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
10237 Berea Road
Cleveland, OH 44102
(216) 375-4720
Pets at Our Rescue Group:
Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:We are located in Cleveland, Ohio.
We prefer to adopt to homes in Northeast Ohio, but we are flexible with respect to location. Our main priority is to find the best possible match for these great dogs.
About Our Rescue Group:We work very closely with local Rescue Organizations, including Tracking Lucky Dogs Rescue and Lake Erie German Shepherd Rescue. Occasionally, these Rescues come across dogs that have a difficult times being placed in regular home environments (with young kids, other animals) for various reasons including high levels of energy and high prey drive, coupled with lack of previous training.
That is where we step in. After a preliminary temperament screening, the dogs are taken through a structured play-and-train program. They go through basic or advanced obedience (depending on the dogs maturity and previous exposure to training), with emphasis on off-leash recall and off-leash stationary positions (down-stay, sit-stay).
Our goal is to help them find the best possible path in life, to fulfill their potential and become the superstars they were meant to be.
Come Meet our Pets:Call or email to schedule a meet-and-greet with one of our dogs. All adoption events are held on site at our training center.
Our Adoption Process:Our adoption fees vary from dog to dog.
All our dogs are obedience-trained, house-trained, up to date on vaccines and altered.
You must have previous experience with the particular breed listed. These dogs are exceptional young adults (stable, social, confident) with strong working drives, and they need a structured home environment. They would excel in homes with active lifestyles or involved in dog sports.
References will be checked and a home visit will be required. An adoption contract will be signed after application approval.
Adopters are strongly encouraged to continue the training of their new family member. Our adoption fees include two free training sessions with High Drive Pups (http://highdrivepups.com).

Yoga has made its way into mainstream America, and newcomers to the practice have learned that you don't have to win the genetic lottery in flexibility to gain the benefits of this ancient physical exercise. In fact, gyms, dance studios, and health clubs across the country are adding yoga classes to their schedules due to popular demand of Americans looking for calm in the middle of their stormy lives.
Yoga has its origins in Ancient India. It began as an informal practice of physical and spiritual well-being, then became more formalized with Patanjali's Yoga Sutras in 200 BC. The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali still form the basis of many yoga classes today, both in the eastern and western hemispheres.
One of the most basic principles of yoga is the union of mind and body. Particular physical postures are designed to produce courage, patience, or calmness of the mind.
So, does this Yoga gig actually work? According to researchers at California State University, San Bernardino, the answer is yes! In their study, eighty-four students participated in Hatha Yoga classes over a ten-week time period. The students demonstrated improved levels of both concentration and motivation, as measured by the researchers after two weeks and nine weeks. In fact, the researchers make claims that not only does Yoga help reduce anxiety, but it can also make you mentally sharper.
Judi Sheppard Missett, founder and CEO of Jazzercise, Inc., incorporates Yoga postures into many of her routines that are utilized by Jazzercise instructors all over the world. She offers a few tips for would-be yogis:
See you doctor before participating in yoga. Remember that yoga is a form of exercise. It's always wise to check with your physician to be sure it's safe for you to participate in any exercise class.
Choose your first class carefully. Look for an introductory class to Hatha Yoga, which will walk you through the basic postures at a moderate pace. Classes such as Ashtanga Yoga and Bikram Yoga are much more demanding on your physical body, and are best suited for more experienced yogis.
Talk to your instructor. When you arrive at class, let your instructor know that you are new to yoga. Tell your instructor about any physical limitations or past injuries, so that the teacher can guide you into postures safely.
Listen to your body. It is possible to get hurt in yoga. If you find that a particular posture doesn't feel right, then back off. Never push yourself too hard.
Jazzercise, created by Judi Sheppard Missett, is the world's leading dance-fitness program with more than 7,500 instructors teaching 32,000 classes weekly in the U.S. and around the globe. Since 1969, millions of people of all ages and fitness levels have reaped the benefits of this comprehensive program, designed to enhance cardiovascular endurance, strength, and flexibility.

I've dj'd with Nigel a couple of times, and I have always respected his taste in music. In fact, he is the person who turned me on to Bola. And for a little while now, he's been teasing me with his original music. I once managed to get a CD with a couple of his tracks on it from him, the "UFO" disc it was called, since he had written the tracks for his buddy's film or art project or something. They were good, but I knew he had something more up his sleeve.
On July 5th, I was pleasantly surprised to find him playing at the 'All Fucking Good' mini-music fest at the dive of all dives, Uncle Lou's. I was there to check out A_Scissors, but seeing Nigel on the bill was a big bonus,like spotting a steaming gravy boat on the table next to a home cooked meal.
Gar was also in attendance, and in true form brought his video camera and his projector, and captured a little video mayhem. Here are the results:

The list of artists who don't much like Spotify — and, specifically, the streaming service's practice of paying artists very little money — has lately grown to include distinguished types like Thom Yorke and David Byrne, and now it also includes the anthemic British skronk-rockers Foals. As Music Week reports, frontman Yannis Philippakis recently told Britain's Channel 4:
"I'd rather somebody stole the record on vinyl than bought it or streamed it on Spotify. I think you should listen to music on vinyl and I think basically anything is better than [Spotify]. … It's like going to a restaurant when the chef and all the waiting staff have worked their asses off, and you leave coppers as a tip, and you don't even pay the bill. That's basically what Spotify's like, I think."
Foals albums are still available on Spotify for now, but look for that to change.

Sorry but that's an idiotic comment.
This section should be titled, "Where's The Logic"
It's apparently not a money thing- (he wants you to steal the album)
It almost seems like he's talking more about the superior sound quality of vinyl than griping about the Spotify's low payouts.
"I think people should listen to music on vinyl"
Let me just install a turntable right here at my work station to go with the one in my car.
The quote doesn't make any more sense in the context of the original article, where he likens Spotify use to barely leaving a tip after a restaurant meal.
No dilemmas for me anyway, as I can't stand Foals and will not be stealing nor buying nor streaming their albums (and that seems to be Iannis' baffling order of preference for Foals consumption).
Quite apart from the streaming debate, I'm really tired of the 'vinyl sounds best' fuss. I have an LP collection and I enjoy owning and playing some of my favourite albums in that format, but I'm under no illusions about 180g virgin vinyl and other such nonsense. There are a lot of people who don't have a clue what they're talking about (nor a decent turntable and sound system) who are preaching about the sonic wonders of vinyl. I recommend reading this: http://benwatt.com/play/article/the-myth-of-vinyl
It's no coincidence that some of the artists who work the hardest to make sublime-sounding recordings like Foals and Thom Yorke are the most against Spotify's shitty-quality mp3′s.
well if you pay for spotify you can listen at higher bit rates, so you're not necessarily listening to low-quality versions, although yeah the default is like 96 or something
but even the higher bit rates sound much worse than CD/FLAC, so it's a choice between Spotify Bad or Spotify Worse.
most people are listening to spotify at 96, so in that sense we're on the same page; however, I disagree that the higher rate of 320 is in any way bad
are you sure? i think most people listen at something like 192, which is bad but not terrible. 320 is not bad but only mildly degraded. i like my music w/ zero degradation, that's just me.
holy shit you're right it's 96 on mobile and only 160 on desktop/free. so pathetic.
yeah you're not getting a square deal listening at the default settings
miguelito1, I'm with you, FLAC is the way to go when storing files as they remain identical to the initial cd. However, 320 sounds just as good as FLAC since it only removes stuff a human ear cannot hear.
320 doesn't sound quite as good as FLAC but on cheaper speakers you're right there's no difference.
Foals are like the Mandy Moore of indie bands.

Marseille move second with added-time win
Olympique de Marseille leapfrogged Olympique Lyonnais into second place in Ligue 1 after Rod Fanni's added-time goal secured a 1-0 home win against Valenciennes FC.
With leaders Paris Saint-Germain FC and Lyon in action on Sunday, OM had the chance to put pressure on the pair with victory over Daniel Sanchez's side at the Stade Vélodrome. Despite dominating possession and earning 11 corners, it took the hosts until the 94th minute to break their stubborn opponents, Fanni beating Gaël Danic to Jérémy Morel's delivery.
In the pick of the day's late fixtures, in-form OGC Nice moved fourth, four points shy of OM, with a 1-0 triumph at SC Bastia. The 16-year-old Neal Maupay's goal midway through the second half secured Claude Puel's side their fourth win in their sixth league game of 2013.
The division's bottom team, AS Nancy-Lorraine, lost by the same score at mid-table Montpellier Hérault SC and 19th-placed ES Troyes AC came away from Toulouse FC with a point – despite being 2-0 up with seven minutes left.
Elsewhere, Stade Brestois 29 drew 1-1 with AC Ajaccio and FC Lorient overcame Évian Thonon Gaillard FC 2-1. On Friday, LOSC Lille beat Stade Rennais FC 2-0 courtesy of a Chris Mavinga own goal and a Dimitri Payet effort.© 1998-2014 UEFA. All rights reserved.

Does anyone else fear that this is way above these morons' pay grade? Good gracious, if Congress doesn't abolish this agency, and right quick, its bunglers could wipe out Salt Lake City and Provo. I can hear the broadcasts now: "We're getting reports of no survivors anywhere within municipal limits — in fact, authorities tell us they're broadening the search for life to the entire state. But TSA says that agents followed proper procedure when they released the chlorine yesterday. Meanwhile, Congress will hold hearings next week on requiring TSA screeners to change gloves every four hours, whether they need to or not…"3:35 pm on October 28, 2011 Email Becky Akers

Glasgow ( ; Scots: Glesga listen (help·info); Scottish Gaelic: Glaschu, pronounced ) is the largest city in Scotland and third most populous in the United Kingdom. The city is situated on the River Clyde in the country's west central lowlands. A person from Glasgow is known as a Glaswegian.
Glasgow grew from the medieval Bishopric of Glasgow and the later establishment of the University of Glasgow in the 15th century, which subsequently became a major centre of the Scottish Enlightenment in the 18th century. From the 18th century the city also grew as one of Britain's main hubs of transatlantic trade with British North America and the British West Indies. With the Industrial Revolution, the city and surrounding region shifted to become one of the world's pre-eminent centres of Heavy Engineering,[3] most notably in the Shipbuilding and Marine engineering industry, which produced many innovative and famous vessels. Glasgow was known as the "Second City of the British Empire" for much of the Victorian era and Edwardian period.[4][5][6][7] Today it is one of Europe's top twenty financial centres and is home to many of Scotland's leading businesses.[8] Glasgow is also ranked as the 57th most liveable city in the world.[9]
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries Glasgow grew to a population of over one million,[10] and was the fourth-largest city in Europe, after London, Paris and Berlin.[11] In the 1960s, large-scale relocation to new towns and peripheral suburbs, followed by successive boundary changes, have reduced the current population of the City of Glasgow unitary authority area to 580,690,[2] with 1,199,629[12] people living in the Greater Glasgow urban area. The entire region surrounding the conurbation covers approximately 2.3 million people, 41% of Scotland's population.[13]
The present site of Glasgow has been used since prehistoric times for settlement due to it being the furthest downstream fording point of the River Clyde, at the point of its confluence with the Molendinar Burn. The origins of Glasgow as an established city derive ultimately from its medieval position as Scotland's second largest bishopric. Glasgow increased in importance during the 10th and 11th centuries as the site of this bishopric, reorganised by King David I of Scotland and John, Bishop of Glasgow.
There had been an earlier religious site established by Saint Mungo in the 6th century. The bishopric became one of the largest and wealthiest in the Kingdom of Scotland, bringing wealth and status to the town. Between 1175 and 1178 this position was strengthened even further when Bishop Jocelin obtained for the episcopal settlement the status of Royal burgh from King William I of Scotland, allowing the settlement to expand with the benefits of trading monopolies and other legal guarantees. Sometime between 1189 and 1195 this status was supplemented by an annual fair, which survives to this day as the Glasgow Fair.
Glasgow grew over the following centuries, the first bridge over the River Clyde at Glasgow was recorded from around 1285, giving its name to the Briggait area of the city, forming the main North-South route over the river via Glasgow Cross. The founding of the University of Glasgow in 1451 and elevation of the bishopric to become the Archdiocese of Glasgow in 1492 also increased the town's religious and educational status.
Daniel Defoe visited the city in the early 18th century and famously opined in his book A tour thro' the Whole Island of Great Britain, that Glasgow was "the cleanest and beautifullest, and best built city in Britain, London excepted."[14] At that time, the city's population numbered approximately 12,000, and was yet to undergo the massive changes to the city's economy and urban fabric, brought about by the influences of the Scottish Enlightenment and Industrial Revolution.
After the Acts of Union in 1707, Scotland gained trading access to the vast markets of the British Empire and Glasgow became prominent in international commerce as a hub of trade to the Americas, especially in the movement of tobacco, cotton and sugar into the deep water port that had been created by city merchants at Port Glasgow on the Firth of Clyde, due to the shallowness of the river within the city itself at that time.[15] By the late 18th century more than half of the British tobacco trade was concentrated on Glasgow's River Clyde, with over of tobacco being imported at its peak.[16]


text: Okay, so we did make a little progress on this one in the last 8 months. I have some lavender planted, and my husband put in a couple of raspberry bushes. A friend gave us a rose bush when the baby was born, so we've got to get that in. My husband also has the garden planted and he mulched around some of the stuff we already had down. We've got a few more ideas to build on, but no money to act on…oh well, right now we're reworking our budget to fit some of the baby stuff in. Maybe next year :) 6 years ago

Thank you for your interest in Western New York Family Magazine, which was founded in 1984 as an 8-page newsletter called "Mother's Lifeline."
Articles submitted should address current parenting issues with a Western New York tie-in whenever possible. Strong emphasis is placed on how and where to find family-oriented events, as well as goods and services for children, in Western New York (the Buffalo metro area).
Each issue has an "Up Front" focus article with appropriate sidebars, as well as additional articles, regular columns (children's books, family travel, "The Newbie Dad," single parenting, tweens & teens, internet/technology, restaurant review) and a very popular centerfold calendar of events targeted to young, growing families...
We are interested in well-researched, non-fiction articles on surviving the newborn, preschool, school age and adolescent years. Our readers want practical information on places to go and things to do in the Buffalo area and nearby Canada. They enjoy humorous articles about the trials and tribulations of parenthood as well as "how-to" articles (i.e., organizing a child's room, keeping your sanity while shopping with preschoolers, ideas for holidays and birthdays, etc.) Articles on making a working parent's life easier are of great interest as are articles written by fathers. We prefer a warm, conversational style of writing.
Because this is a regional publication, LOCAL writers are given preference, but ALL authors are given equal consideration based on their writing skill, style and the appropriateness of subject matter.
Payment is made upon publication. Pays $35-$200 depending on type and length of article. (For example, narrative and humor articles rate less on the pay scale than pieces which necessitate factual research and quotes from experts.) Pays $40 for up to 950 word articles or humorous pieces. Pays $40-$60 for up to 1500 word non-fiction, informational or creative idea pieces. Pays up to $100-200 for in-depth, non-fiction main theme articles of approximately 2,500-3,000 words. And additional 10% is paid for online rights; with a minimum of $10 per article.
Be sure to include your complete name, address and contact information on your manuscript, as your introductory e-mail can become separated from your article and we may not be able to locate you for payment!

Sunlight and sneezing: Is there a connection?
Since birth, my son has been sensitive to bright sunlight. He reacts by sneezing. He is currently 18-months-old and still continues to sneeze when he looks into bright sunlight. My doctor has never heard of this. Should I be concerned?Question:
Robert Steele
Robert W. Steele, MD, is a board certified pediatrician at St. John's Regional Health Center in Springfield, MO. He graduated from medical... Read more
Most people know of at least one person who sneezes when they are suddenly exposed to bright light. This is most often seen when a person walks into the sunlight after having been inside for a while. The person looks into the sunlight (or just has the light shine upon the face) and it triggers one or more sneezes. Well, there is, in fact, a connection between bright light and sneezing. It has a name but you're not going to believe it: Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst or ACHOO Syndrome. Now, you have to know the scientists who gave it such a label must have worked hard to come up with one that was so cute.
This sneeze reflex is inherited and thought to be prevalent in approximately 24 percent of the population. The cause of it is still unknown but there are a few theories. The speculations as to the cause are somewhat technical but they all involve direct stimulation by light to nerves found in the face. This reflex does not involve mechanisms similar to allergies, and there are no known problems associated with this syndrome.
With one-quarter of the population susceptible to this type of sneezing reflex, it is hard to consider it abnormal in anyone. It is simply an interesting phenomenon that occurs in many people -- including my son.
I hope this helps.Answer:

Budget Issues:
Budget Enforcement Compliance Report
AIMD-99-100: Published: Apr 1, 1999. Publicly Released: Apr 1, 1999.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-9573
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed compliance by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) with the requirements of the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, focusing on OMB and CBO reports issued for legislation enacted during the 2nd session of the 105th Congress, which ended on October 21, 1998.
GAO noted that: (1) CBO and OMB substantially complied with the act; (2) however, some of the required OMB reports were issued late; (3) the Deficit Control Act (DCA) sets a specific timetable for issuance of OMB reports; (4) by law, OMB must issue sequestration reports at three specific times during the calendar year: (a) the preview report when the President submits his budget; (b) the update on August 20; and (c) the final report 15 days after the end of a congressional session; (5) OMB issued its fiscal year (FY) 1999 sequestration update report on August 26, 1998--6 days late; (6) its final report was issued December 10, 1998--35 days later than the required date of November 5, 1998; (7) if OMB had issued its report on the required date, the report would have excluded, at a minimum, nine pieces of legislation that were passed by Congress but that had not been signed by the President before DCA's 15-day deadline; (8) assuming no other changes in the issuance of other scoring reports, the final sequestration report would not have included the impact of 5 of the appropriations acts and 18 of the 51 pieces of pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) legislation; (9) as was the case for FY 1997 and FY 1998, OMB issued many of its FY 1999 scorekeeping reports late; (10) all 7 of its discretionary scorekeeping reports and 41 of its 51 PAYGO scorekeeping reports were issued later than the time specified by law; (11) the DCA requires OMB to issue scorekeeping reports within 7 working days after enactment; (12) on average, the 1999 reports were issued 11.2 working days after enactment; (13) of the 58 reports issued prior to the issuance of the final sequestration report, 83 percent were issued late, a decline in timeliness from FY 1998 and FY 1997 reports; (14) half of the 1998 reports and about 70 percent of the 1997 reports were issued late; (15) according to OMB, part of the reason for the increased delay was the volume of legislation enacted at the end of this session of Congress; (16) five of the seven discretionary acts were enacted in the last 2 weeks of the session; (17) one-third of the PAYGO legislation was enacted in the last 2 weeks of the session or before the statutory date for OMB's final sequestration report; (18) GAO found several implementation issues in which OMB and CBO differed in: (a) PAYGO scorekeeping; (b) appropriations scoring; and (c) cap adjustments; and (19) the use of emergency spending designations was different this year than in prior years.

Best Documentary Journalist Tripped Up by Power Outage
How strange. As Memphis Commercial Appeal sports reporter Jason Smith recounts today, a Sunday evening power outage prevented him from watching the initial portion of the Oscars during which Undefeated, the high school football turnaround inspired by his 2009 newspaper article, won the prize for Best Documentary Feature.
Nevertheless, at 8:43 p.m. ET, his cell phone started ringing off the hook with congratulations. Later, when asked by his editor to write something about the Oscar victory, Smith settled on a highlight far from Hollywood:
O.C. Brown, the Manassas High lineman I wrote about in the story, is
now a redshirt freshman at Southern Miss. And I guess in all of this, that's what I'm most proud of-that Brown took advantage of the help he was being offered back in 2009 and is now a Division 1 college student-athlete.

Time to announce some more splendid speakers for this year's event. They're all solid gold eggs, so give them a warm welcome:
You know Brendan Dawes, he's the man with opinions, a good shirt and excellent stationery. He also happens to be a bloody marvellous designer, both in digital form as ECD at magneticNorth and of real physical things as co-founder of Beep Industries. Brendan's been making things since forever, from the ZX81 in the '80s, through the Flash heyday and now pushing the edges of processing and HTML5. His work has been shown as far and wide as MOMA and the internet, and we're delighted to present him at Conway Hall.
Brendan is bringing his wonderful take on 'playing properly', from romantic electronics to useful 3D printed objects.
Al is a sci-fi, fantasy and horror writer whose stories have been published alongside Bruce Sterling and Ray Bradbury. Right now, he's busy completing his second novel. He also works in helping people like Sony and the British Council work out what stories to tell, and how to do it. He'll be opening up his rather large brain to explore why and how Science Fiction is a genre built on play, how it allows us to bend the rules of reality, and somehow predict the future.
Sami is Creative Director at Nordkapp, a Finnish agency of designers, strategists and technologists. Sami wants to make the future happen. His vision for doing this is to make things that make the world a bit better, through smart design and new technologies. At Playful, Sami will be talking about cyborgs and superpowers, unintentionally dramatic surfaces and the objects we surround ourselves with.
Shaping up rather nicely, isn't it?
There are still a handful of tickets left — grab one.
