Historical Traveller Reviews of Best Western Hollywood Plaza Hotel
The Bed Bugs Bite!from Kari76Dixon
NOT WORTH THE MONEYfrom bestbet33
Cons: Needs renovating, expensive for Best Western, poor staff
I stayed at this hotel for one night with friends to see a taping of the Tonight Show. I chose this hotel because it looked like a nice motel from the pictures. I was disappointed.
There was nothing too special with check in. While the staff certainly wasn't rude, they didn't smile or ever go out of their way. The lobby was tiny though was well kept. Our second floor room was clean (most importantly) though reminded me of a Motel 6 with only VERY basic amenities. It seemed worn with outdated furnishings and dark green carpet. I liked the free parking and free internet (however I had to go to the lobby with my laptop for a wired connection). I did not use the pool, though again it looked like one you would see at a Motel 6.
The location was in walking distance to the "Walk of Fame", though is definitely not a stretch you want to walk at night (lots of bums and dingy old buildings).
In conclusion, stay at the Holiday Inn for the same price (much, much, much nicer in every way) or pay a little more and stay at the Hilton.
Good valuefrom gettyfan
The location is the best thing about this motel, a short walk from Hollywood Boulevard, Mann's etc. Having stayed at some fairly gnarly 'independent' motels on our 4 week odyssey around California, I learnt that the chains are the most reliable family accommodation.
New Very Comfortable Beds!from SFOF/A

As previously stated, the black glass facade in the front of the property gives you the impression that it's an enclosed building instead of a motel where all of the rooms open to the outside.
The entire time I was in this motel (NOT a hotel!), I felt as if I was in the 1970s as the style of the place hasn't been updated for some time. Not charming, rather mid-century low-rent.
Not enough parking inside the motel, which is a serious issue as the hotel is on a very busy avenue (little street-side parking).
The coffee shop is ok as a diner-type of place.
Great for touristsfrom balletshoes
It is not a hotel or inn. They have designed the outside of it so it looks like a glass building, but once you are inside you will see it is a motel. They disguised the front to make it look nicer. There is no room service, but a little coffee shop next to the lobby. It is run by 2 old sisters who don't speak much English. IF they notice you when you sit down they will ask if you want a cup of coffee, if you say no just water or juice they don't understand and you will have nothing to drink. We learned to just say yes to coffee. Prices were very cheap here, but it is frusterating trying to understand the sisters and waiting for service.
Parking was horrible at night. They have a very limited amount of parking spaces, so some people parked along the sides of walls blocking the enterance to the elevators, doors, and even the driveway to the hotel. We asked about parking at the Holiday inn next door since there was no place to park, but that was not allowed.
Pool was nice, hot tub could have been hotter.
Great location so you can walk to the Walk of Fame, Chinese Theater, museums, Kodak, Hollywood and Highland Complex. Great location for anyone on vacation and you won't mind your stay if you are not planning on spending much time in the hotel.

So-So hotelfrom You15
Coffee Shop: Only open 2-7pm during the weekends. Unclear what the hours are for the weekdays. I was under the impression that the coffee shop would be a convience. Did not turn out that way.
Room: Clean, older decore, televison channels came in with a lot of snow.
Comfort: Very noisy, could hear residents shouting and partying, slamming doors, taking showers, playing music, driving up in their cars - the design of the building had a lot to do with the automobile noise because parking was underneath the hotel. I think the noise of shouting and partying was due to the hotel being so close to clubs in Hollywood and people coming back to continue partying after the clubs shut-down.
I will not stay at the hotel when I return to Hollywood.

Top Local Tips for Hollywood
Must see If you love architecture, don't miss the Getty Museum. I spent more time feasting on the buildings and the gardens outside (it was a beautiful warm day after a long cold winter) than on the exhibits.Take the docent-led tour which explains the whys of its design and points out things you might never have noticed!
Best beach The best beach we found was Zuma beach at Point Dume just west of Malibu. Awesome beach and great swimming. Point Dume is also great to hike around and was used in the original Planet of the Apes movie. We spent hours there swimming and laying on the beach. The other beach which we liked was at the end of LAX airport.
Hollywood Boulevard/Down Town LA Don't expect to see stars or well attired people on the streets. The Boulevard is tacky and rundown. The Chinese Theatre is in the process of overhaul. The stores are full of trashy merchandise, or are closed. Down town LA looks like a poor third world country with cement sidewalks. My impression of the entire area was not good. The Norton Simon and the Exposition Park Museums are worth the trip, especially on the Metro. So is the Farmers Market. Using the Metro system is quick and cheap. Regular fare is $5 for a full day. Seniors and handicap are charged $1.80. That'll take a person from one end of the county to the other. Even getting lost is no problem, when there isn't a car to consider. Just hop onto the returning bus or rail car, and go back/forward to the correct destination in minutes.

The Internet really.

Last few days (Online - internet), last few months (the gym - locker room/showers), last few years (Boyfriend #3 in my bed)
My mirror.
Seriously Asda/Walmart is chav central for me.
For those who have answered "mirrors", pics or gtfo.
Prove it.
Things just got awkward.......
Hey, Bender, I'm in Edinburgh at the end of January and will be looking for someone to go out on the piss with....
Just sayin' ;)
When I went to the dealership to get my oil changed. This guy working there had the most perfect ass. I think he saw me looking
^ Did you take a pic ?
Anyone got any aloe vera? I've just been burned....
at work. lots of 'comfortable' flexual guys, gay guys, even straight guys wearing ass tight jeans.
just today a buddys friend came in with his friend wearing cheek tight dress pants...is he showing his ass off for women or for men? hard to tell..havent seen him with a girl before...and hes pretty as fuck.
double post--basically everywhere and anywhere. I think asslovers have much more (and prominent) eye candy than guys who look for "bulges" in the front.
A hooker in my area, he's in Seattle now
anywho lent me $300 per night?
I gotta stop subscribed to that site--it keeps spamming me :dead:

OMFG Look At That Beautiful Big Beefy Butt...I Would Do Disgusting Things To Fuck & Rim That Ass!!!!!
^ Yes...that's definitely one for the 'archives'. :lol::drool:
My best location of all time??? was when i joined the navy and for the first 14 years while we wore these dungarees which are really just jeans that shrink wrap to an ass quickly.... oh man ... so many asses... so much material for the spank bank....
Now recently it would be the gym
This thread, and the internet in general.
Interesting. According to this thread it's time to stop working out from home.
Apparently I also need a new mirror. :lol:
At my job (OSU Hospital) And at school. Those white boys at OSU are fucking hot!
Any Transport Cafe on the A4
At school when a professor allowed my class to take a peak at the cadavers. One of the professor's students for the following class was sitting on the side. When he got up and passed by me, his ass just looked like perfection. Hottest one as of late.
Not only that but occasionally another customer will come in for car service that you notice from the jump...A while back I was in the Lobby when one guy came in wearing what looked likea pair of short-running shorts. He looked like he went from running to jumping in his car and driving to the shop. Nice-looking guy, great Legs and Ass. The other guys waiting couldnt help but notice him because he was the only one wearing so little....LOL....
Another traditional HOT-spot where you'll find a RANGE of Man-Butts is the Barber shop....I usually get my head shaven once a week and I see all types of Butts passing me by while I wait or while I'm on the cutting Throne..Surprisingly enough it's the Middle-age Guys that have the Beefier Butts VS guys my age and younger....A lot of younger guys (mainly 20-somethings) wear shirts covering their Ass while the Middle-age Guys tuck their shirts in and their Booty is on display...
So for a Gay or Bisexual Guy going to to the Atuo-Shop &/or barber Shop is more of a Treat than anything else because you get to check out a good-bit of Eye Candy and a whole lot of Man-Booty is constantly in your Face from the time you wallk in until you Leave....
Yesterday I said that sometimes you'll see a nice ass in places where you least expect it. Well, last night I went out to a gas station, and as I pulled up to a pump I saw a guy with a GREAT ass on the opposite side from where I was. I didn't want to take my eyes off of his ass, but there were a lot of people at the station and some of them were casually looking around. It's a very large and busy station. It's too bad I didn't get to see him in a less busy place.

Well she does a nice job, but i always thought buttercream with egg whites would be called italian meringue, when egg yolks where used it became french . She used the term french when making the buttercream with whites whipped into meringue ,which would make it meringue or italian.

Even though Elle Fanning was born in 1998, she knows how to work 1970s chic like no other starlet on the red carpet. We spotted her at the star-studded premiere of her newest summer flick, Super 8, at the glamorous Regency Village Theatre in Westwood, CA, on Wednesday, June 8th in a cream colored vintage dress and platform sandals that left us with a serious case of wardrobe envy. The young style star reportedly loves vintage clothing and, appropriately, donned a gorgeous 70s-era maxi to the premiere. Elle plays Alice in the Spielberg-produced blockbuster, which is actually set in 1979, so we think her dress was pitch-perfect for the evening.
Elle's crystal-embroidered creation featured flattering chiffon sleeves, and we're thrilled that strapless silhouettes are evidently on their way out of style. Sleeves are a great way to experiment with different shapes without veering into inappropriate, skin-bearing frocks, and we wish more celebs would embrace the elegant style. We especially love this look on Elle, and think it's age-appropriate and fashion forward for the confidant, talented 13-year-old.
In addition to the flattering and feminine shape of her dress, Elle completed her vintage ensemble with Marcia Brady-inspired hair and makeup. Fortunately, her beauty routine is simple to recreate at home, even for cosmetic novices. Elle's silky, center-parted blow out is a classic style that flatters every face shape, and all you need to get the look is a round brush and hair dryer! Start with damp hair, and create a sleek center part with a rattail comb. Smooth out locks with your brush as you dry, and flip ends up for a distinctly vintage twist.
For Elle's barely-there makeup look, start with tinted moisturizer and add a just-pinched pink cheek color for a naturally pretty flush. Finish with a tinted lip balm just two shades darker than your own lip color for a summer premiere-worthy look from head to toe!

Mine does not see it, and I am unable to mount it to the VM.
I cannot see the external drive with it mounted to either a GoFlex Thunderbolt adapter or a GoFlex USB-3.0 adapter (gave me a driver error) from the Virtual Machine Windows 7. However, when I attached the GoFlex USB-3.0 adapter to a USB-2.0 hub, forcing a USB-2 connection, it mounted to the Windows VM and I was able to proceed with the partitioning, formatting, and imagex configure. Now to reboot with the drive on the Thunderbolt and attempt finishing the installation.

Yeah I had the same issue when I used VMWare Fusion, so I plugged the drive to a USB 2 hub and that solved the issue. I read that Parallels Desktop works better with USB3 and Thunderbolt but I did not try it.

I got everything working up until the point where I reboot with the prepared drive connected to perform the Windows installation. Once I do that, I get the startup screens of Windows 7 where the colored blobs start to fly together, followed by a very-quick blue screen, then a system reboot.
I'm trying to install Windows 7 X64 using an external laptop-sized hard drive in an old Kingston USB2 enclosure (figured I'd try on that before investing in a USB3 or Thunderbolt enclosure).
I also tried to boot to SafeMode, but it had the same result. Think the enclosure matters? Not quite sure what to do now.
This is on a new 2012 iMac w/ 3tb fusion.
Thanks for the guide - I feel like I'm very close.
|Feb 11, 2013, 01:14 PM
I really can't tell where this could be coming from, it might be the fancy USB2 enclosure, not sure... Do you have any way of testing with another drive or with another enclosure, like USB3 or Thunderbolt?

Came back with error-code "STOP 0x0000007B"
With some research (reference), it looks like the problem can be attributed to a bunch of potential things: virus (unlikely considering it's a clean newly formatted/partitioned drive), device driver issues (possible), or INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (possible).
So it seems the problem is most-likely some incompatibility of the drive/enclosure I'm using with the iMac and I'm in the market for an alternate drive/enclosure with which to get this working.
I know you went with the Lacie Rugged drive - Seems like an expensive drive for what you get and it's got mixed reviews, so I'm not sure that's the drive I'm going to go with despite its dual-interfaces.

Before buying a new drive, have you tried running the CHKDSK /F command from the VM or a PC? If there are corrupted sectors on the drive, it would explain why you are getting this issue.
Then regarding the various external drive models, the Lacie Rugged I have is not an SSD, and it was in the same price range as other drives with the same capacity and connectors. Of course for better performance you could use an SSD of 128 or 256 GB, depending on your needs in Windows software.
|Feb 12, 2013, 09:49 AM
I haven't tried chkdsk, but I'll run a scan on the drive tonight and see if it finds any issues. It's an older drive (not what I intend to use as my final configuration) so it's possible that it may come back with some issues. Thanks for the suggestion - and the video-capture worked great once I ran the video through SLOPRO to stretch out the screen flash.

Wow great guide. But then is it possible to keep windows 7 using bootcamp and windows 8 on an external thunderbolt and boot to any of the 3 OS? (ML, W7 and W8)
|Feb 12, 2013, 01:11 PM
|Feb 12, 2013, 02:55 PM
yes you could have both windows 7 and OS X on your internal drive, and Windows 8 on an external drive. You should be able to boot from any of these with this method.
|Feb 13, 2013, 09:48 AM
When I tried this I had W7 on bootcamp, then I install W8 on a thunderbolt drive following this guide and it W8 worked but it looks like it W8 took over the W7 boot files. When I started and press the option key I have 2 windows boot options but both take me to W8. I can see the W7 files when I boot to ML.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
|Feb 13, 2013, 11:34 AM
With this method it is impossible that the Win 8 boot took over the Win7 boot, because everything is installed on an external drive, nothing is on the same drive as windows 7. I think to boot Windows 7 you would have to use the bootcamp boot drive selection then reboot without pressing ALT. Let me know if this works.
|Feb 13, 2013, 11:38 AM
No luck with the chkdsk - came back clean. I've ordered a HGST Touro Mobile Pro 1tb external USB 3.0 drive to try with different/newer hardware.
|Feb 13, 2013, 10:24 PM
Each Windows should see itself as drive C: and the other as drive D:.
An excellent program for setting up multi-boot options, and solving boot issues is EasyBCD. It's free for home use.
|Feb 17, 2013, 12:38 AM
Can you attach VMware "Fusion" or Parallels to the bootable Windows image on the external thunderbolt drive with either of the Windows installation methods discussed in this thread? This allows using the same Windows image for both bootable access and virtual-machine access.
The 2 methods being the one presented by "Superangel Mac" which uses a small boot manager partition on the internal boot drive ... and the one presented by "BleepToBleep" which installs totally externally with no modifications to the internal OS X drive.
thanks ...
|Feb 18, 2013, 01:10 AM
I have OS X and Windows-7 on my internal iMac drive, and am trying to use your method to install Windows-8 on an external GoFlex Thunderbolt SSD drive. I put the drive temporarily on a GoFlex USB-3 adapter, plugged into a USB-2 hub to force a USB-2 connection so my VMware Windows-7 VM would see it as mentioned above. I completed the partitioning, formatting, and installing without any problems and am ready to boot my external drive for installation.
I put the drive back on the GoFlex Thunderbolt adapter and restarted my iMac with the alt/option key pressed to get the boot menu. I see 2 "Windows" icons and a "EFI Boot" icon in addition to the OS X and Recovery icons. Selecting either of the Windows icons results in booting my internal Windows-7 environment. Selecting the "EFI Boot" icon shows the Windows-8 "blue window on a black screen" , but it proceeds no further.
I can't disable my internal Windows-7 installation without totally deleting it, which I obviously don't want to do at this point. I want to experiment with Windows-8 on the external drive, as when I had previously installed it (both externally and internally), it developed a fatal "CACHE-MANAGER" crash which I was unable to find a solution to (possibly a driver issue with the 680MX video).
Anyone have a suggestion on how to resolve this issue?
|Feb 18, 2013, 01:34 PM
oh that's strange. To be honest I did not try to have both Windows 7 and 8 at the same time. I just tried these 2 installations separately, both from the external drive. So I am sorry but I won't be able to help you here...
|Feb 18, 2013, 01:42 PM
|Feb 18, 2013, 03:04 PM
No I haven't. I'm not an expert in Virtual Machines but actually I think they work quite differently from native Windows installations (drivers and so on). There is the possibility to import an existing Windows installation in VMWare Fusion, but I think this would just create a new VM from it (sort of copy of the existing Windows install).
|Feb 18, 2013, 03:38 PM
|Feb 19, 2013, 11:02 PM
Bummer. No luck with the new external drive. Seems to be crashing in the same spot on install. If I re-try, it gives me the "Safe Boot" option, which lets me see the specific drivers it's loading when it hangs/crashes/reboots. It's something called disk.sys that's causing the issue (or at least that's the last driver shown on the screen).
From what I've found online, it appears to be some sort of hardware conflict with the system that causes the crash. I've tried disabling WiFi and Bluetooth (plugged in a USB keyboard instead) but that didn't help. I've also tried each of the USB ports for the external drive, but that didn't help. Beyond that - I'm not sure what else I can really tweak on the iMac to increase my chances of a successful install.
I tried the same (new) external drive on my 2011 MBP, but it's not even discovered on bootup - I see my main drive, and the Recovery partition, but that's all.
I did have one question - does the Windows install need to take place while connected to the iMac? Would it be possible to boot from the external drive on a Windows PC ... perform the install onto that drive, then connect it to the iMac to finish up the instal process with the Bootcamp drivers?
If not - I guess I'm screwed. I suppose 10.8.3 is supposed to fix the 3tb Bootcamp issue - but I'm still not sure whether that'll allow me to install Windows to the external drive like I was hoping. Alternately, I suppose I could try a Windows 8 install - but I'm not really looking to spend any more money on Windows licenses than I need to considering I'd only use it for a few games and I'm already $100 in the hole for this new external drive that didn't solve my problem.
Thanks for the help and any advice you can provide.

How to Read Labels to Choose Whole-Grain Foods
Many packaged foods and common supermarket finds are now covered in an array of labels making all sorts of amazing health claims. But can you trust those brightly colored bubbles and reassuring words? Only sometimes, it turns out. Here, we'll break down the truth about whole-grain foods and products so you can be sure you're selecting the most nutritious options for you and your family.
Can't get enough filling, fiber-rich whole grains into your everyday meals? Try some of our most delicious quinoa dishes.

Whole-Wheat or Whole-Grain Breads
If you're looking for whole-grain breads in the supermarket, know that the order of ingredients listed matters. Look for breads, rolls, and other products that have whole-grain or whole-wheat flour listed first. If packaging says only "made with whole grain" without an actual amount or percentage, or if a product contains multiple grain ingredients and the first item isn't specifically called out as "whole," it's possible that the product actually only contains a minuscule amount of whole grains — anywhere from 49% all the way down to 1%, according to the Whole Grains Council. If you want to make sure your breads contain 100 percent whole-grain flours, try baking up a loaf at home!

Why the West Really has a Greco-Roman/Judeo-Christian Heritage and why the West Really has No Islamic-Muslim Heritage at All
The Greco-Roman Heritage
Without the slightest doubt it is the Greek philosopers Plato(424-348),the disciple of Socrates(469-399),inventor of the Socratic Method, and Plato's greatest pupil and later rival Aristotle (384-322),who studied under Plato,it is said,for 20 years,and who later taught Alexander the Great when the prince was 13 till he was 16,who are the basis of Western philosophy.
The Greeks invented democracy,the Muslims did not.
The legal system of the West is based on Roman law,specially the Justinian Code.Later Napoleon created the Napoleonic Code,which has influenced the Latin nations,and has Roman law as its basis,no Muslim heritage anywhere.
Classical Greek ideas plus the innovations of the Romans.
The great works of the Greeks and Romans,called the "classics".
Western science has Greek science as its base.
The Greeks and Romans were monogamous.In addition the Germanic tribes were also monogamous,so you can even add a Germanic heritage.But Islam preaches polygamy.
Painting and Sculpture
It is inspired by non-Muslim,Western sources.In Islam is it traditional to forbid painting and sculpture,they are graven images,so no Islamic influence there.
Various Greek and Roman philosophers,like Seneca, expounded the Golden Rule or the Ethic of Reciprocity,which is the basis of human rights.It is something that is found in most cultures.Paul himself in Romans makes it clear you do not need a supernatural revelation to discover the Golden Rule,which he calls "the Law".
The Judeo-Christian Heritage
Here one can almost just say Jewish heritage since the 2 central figures of Christianity,Jesus and Paul,were Jews.In addition since the OT,the Jewish Bible, is accepted as the Word of God,and it makes up 77% of the Christian Bible,then the Jewish influence is strong.
Because of Jesus and Paul the West adopted the idea of one God,it was not due to Islam.
The specificity is that in the NT the Golden Rule is explicitely given the highest level possible in Judaism,that of "Law", and even given the following
1.Law of God
2.Law of Christ
3.Royal Law
4.Law of Liberty
5.Perfect Law
Read the specific citations here:
The Jews were the First to Proclaim the Golden Rule
The Golden Rule first appeared in history among the Jews(for those who believe the Torah was written by Moses),in Leviticus 19:18 and 19:34, and that was in 1200 BC.Even if you think Leviticus is from 600 BC it is still the earliest expression of the Golden Rule.
The Golden Rule is also found in the Hindu book the Mahabharata but it is from 500 BC and Confucius was the first in China to state it but he lived from 551-479 BC.
In addition the Golden Rule is found in:
1.Tobit,a Jewish book,part of the Apocrypha
2.And was stated by Hillel (1st century BC),the greatest Jewish Pharisee teacher and the greatest Jewish sage of the Second Temple period.He is famous for saying:
"If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
If I am not for others, what am I?
And if not now,then when?"
3.And by Philo of Alexandria(20 BC-50 AD),the greatest Jewish philosopher of Antiquity.
4.And by Akiba,the greatest Jewish teacher (and a martyr to the Jewish faith,killed by the Romans) of the 2nd century.
Polygamy is accepted in Mosaic Law but in the 1st century BC there were Jews who proclaimed polygamy.One group was the Essenes,we know it from their writings in Qmran.The Pharisees,the most popular Jewish group,were divided into 2 schools,that of Shammai and that Hillel.Hillel was against polygamy.
In addition Jesus and Paul were for monogamy.To know where it says Jesus was against polygamy read:
You can translate with Google Translate:
The Argument for the Islamic Heritage of Western Civilization
It is not convincing because of the following:
Muslims often say the West has an Islamic philosophical heritage because Averroes(1126-1198) influenced Western thought.But who was the essential,overwhelming influence on Averroes?It was,as all know,Aristotle,in fact Averroes wrote an enormous amount of commentaries on Aristotle.And was Aristotle a Muslim?No he was a pagan.
Was Averroes really a Muslim?
The answer is no if you know the Koran.Averroes tried to reconcile Islam with the philosophy of Aristotle,his intellectual hero and idol, and he wrote commentaries on the works of Aristotle. There he said:
1. There is only one eternal truth expressed both by theology and philosophy.
2.The universe is eternal.
3. The soul is divided into two parts, one individual and one divine; the individual soul is not eternal; all humans at the basic level share one and the same divine soul.
4.There is a resurrection of the dead.
The European followers of Averroes interpretation of Aristotle
They were called the Averrorists and it was they,on the evidence,who later created the Two-Truth Theory which says that on occasion a position may be theologically true and philosophically (that is to say scientifically) untrue and vice versa.Averroes' commentaries on Aristotle found their way to the University of Paris where they were promulgated by the group of scholars known as the Averroists lead by Siger of Brabant.
The Muslim claim Averroes influenced the Greatest European Thinker and Theologian of the Middle Ages Thomas Aquinas(1225-1274)
The Italian thinker,whose masterpiece is the Summa Theologica (and who was unfortunately in favor of killing apostates and heretics,and in favor of slavery) did indeed read Averroes and the Averroists and he was against their ideas.If by influencing you mean Aquinas became a disciple and copied Averroes then it is a mistake.Aquinas was against his ideas and wrote the book "Against the Averroists".
Muslims say there is an Islamic heritage because Muslim scientists influenced the West.
Science has No Religion
Science is just science,it is not "Christian" or "Greek Polytheistic" or "Jewish" or "Muslim-Islamic".So since science has no religion you can't say there is an "Islamic scientific heritage in the West".
"The Myth of the Existence of a Muslim-Islamic Science":
The Claim Muslims invented the Scientific Method
It is that they were the first and that without them,the Muslims,Western technology and progress would have been impossible.It is false they were the first,it was a Christian who invented it,probably a Greek,in other words a Westerner and so that shows nobody is indispensable.
The Case of Greek Fire
It is a substance that when thrown at people spreads astonishingly fast and can not be extinguished by water,it spreads even faster on water,it burns even under water.It is said to have been invented by Callimachus,a Syrian or Greek,around 672.Others says it was invented by others,we are not certain who created it.We do not know how it was manufactured even though people have tried over and over again to discover the formula.Something is known.Read about its fascinating history and details here:
Using the Scientific Method to Recreate Greek Fire
How do scientists today try to recreate it?Using the scientific method.The question arises:"How did its creator create it in the first place?"To ask it is to answer it.The only way possible was he used the scientific method.He could not have invented such a complicated substance any other way.But the method was not appreciated,knowledge of its importance was lost.
The Rediscovery of Greek Fire
In 1756 a Frenchman named Dupré rediscovered the formula for Greek fire and showed its usage to the king of France Louis XV.The king was so horrified by its horrible effects that he decided that for humane reasons such a terrible weapon should never be used.He gave Dupre a life pension on condition he never divulge the secret.Dupre never told the secret and died soon later,some say killed by the king.
How did Dupre come to accidentally rediscover Greek fire?By using the scientific method,no other way.People has several times,using the scientific method,tried to rediscover the formula,but no success yet.
Read this article
To know more,plus if it is true that without the Muslims the Greek works would have been lost forever?That is not true,and in addition the Muslims did nothing to preserve the Latin works and heritage,read:
Islamic countries are based on Sharia-Islamic law,based on the Koran and hadiths(sayings of Muhammad) which is not the case in Western civilization.
The Golden Rule
It is in the Koran but it is not the Ethical Heart of Islam for the following reasons:

Celebrating Beltane and the Fires of Tara
Beltane kicks off the merry month of May, and has a long history. This fire festival is celebrated on May 1 with bonfires, Maypoles, dancing, and lots of good old fashioned sexual energy. The Celts honored the fertility of the gods with gifts and offerings, sometimes including animal or human sacrifice. Cattle were driven through the smoke of the balefires, and blessed with health and fertility for the coming year. In Ireland, the fires of Tara were the first ones lit every year at Beltane, and all other fires were lit with a flame from Tara.
Today's Pagans and Wiccans celebrate Beltane much like their ancestors did. A Beltane ritual usually involves lots of fertility symbols, including the obviously-phallic Maypole dance. The Maypole is a tall pole decorated with flowers and hanging ribbons, which are woven into intricate pattern by a group of dancers. Weaving in and out, the ribbons are eventually knotted together by the time the dancers reach the end.
In some Wiccan traditions, Beltane is a day in which the May Queen and the Queen of Winter battle one another for supremacy. In this rite, borrowed from practices on the Isle of Man, each queen has a band of supporters. On the morning of May 1, the two companies battle it out, ultimately trying to win victory for their queen. If the May Queen is captured by her enemies, she must be ransomed before her followers can get her back.
There are some who believe Beltane is a time for the faeries — the appearance of flowers around this time of year heralds the beginning of summer and shows us that the fae are hard at work. In early folklore, to enter the realm of faeries is a dangerous step — and yet the more helpful deeds of the fae should always be acknowledged and appreciated. If you believe in faeries, Beltane is a good time to leave out food and other treats for them in your garden or yard.

re: the Obama/Romney lunch
"Romney was wearing a sober blue suit and striped tie, his hair slicked back into the familiar Brylcreem style that looked so disheveled shortly after the election in a now-infamous snapshot of him pumping his own gas." so says the WashPost reporter.
No mention was made of MrObama's suit on whether it was sober or not, nor even what color is was. The reporter neglected to describe MrO's close to the scalp haircut, or of any famous snapshot of him pumping his own gas.
Spin, spinning, spun.

Ted Cruz is a patriot, who I expect will shake up the stodgy old blowhards in the Senate. He is so fluent in conservatism, he doesn't even need notes. I'm just going to bask in the glow of watching a real conservative senator serve the state of Texas before even thinking of 2016.

Faux Dichro Colored Metal Disc Bracelet4B1E
Faux Dichro, spectacular liquid glass, is applied to pre-cut patina discs for a unique look. The many shapes, sizes and colors of patina discs can be used to create bracelets, necklaces, earrings and much more! This is a combination that can't be beat!
: : : Materials : : :
Step 1
Place a colored metal disc on a flat level surface with a piece of waxed paper underneath in case the liquid glass spills over the edge of the disc, or possibly use a raised surface such as a bottle cap underneath the disc.
Step 2
Cut luminous elements in a desired shape to go on a colored metal disc. Or you can use a special shaped hole punch. You might want to use fewer elements on a colored background, to let color show through, as opposed to something lacking color where you might want to use more luminous elements to cover the surface. Save any snips not used for other discs; that way none get wasted.
Step 3
Put the liquid glass on top of the disc with the luminous elements. Use a toothpick to spread the liquid glass out to the edges of the disk to get a thin even layer. Pop any bubbles with the toothpick. If you need to add a second layer of the liquid glass, allow a drying time of 1-1/2 hours between layers, and after the last coat wait at least 3 hours before you use the disk.
Step 4
After the first side is dry, check to see if any liquid glass spilled over the edge of the disk. If there is any excess, use scissors to cut around the edge of the disk and then file any rough edges smooth using either fine sandpaper or a finger nail file. If liquid glass gets into the hole of the disk, pierce through the hole with a needle.
Step 5
Decorate the other side of the disk repeating Steps 2 and 3.
Step 6
When the disk is completely dry on both sides, place a dot of glue on the disk wherever a flat back crystal would add sparkle.
Step 7
Use the dop stick to pick up the crystal and place it over the dot of glue. It takes 10 - 15 minutes for the glue to set; the glue dries clear. Flip the disk over and glue a crystal on the other side.
Step 8
Follow Steps 1 - 7 for all the disks being placed on the bracelet.
Step 9
Using two pairs of pliers, open a jumpring, then slip on a decorated metal disk and a swivel clasp. Close the jumpring. For added security apply a drop of glue to the seam of the jumpring after it is closed. Wait for the glue to dry before attaching the clasp to the bracelet.
Step 10
Repeat Step 9 for all the disks.
Step 11
Decide which order to place the disks onto the bracelet. Use the swivel clasps to attach the disks to the appropriate link in the bracelet. Repeat for all the metal disks.

what is the interior dimensions of the Thule carrier? Will it allow for a airline approved carryon Pullman size luggage stand up inside and still close?
Sam Matthews
Member since
50.5 x 24.3 x 23.5 in
It might be a tight fit, as most carry on size bags are 14x9x22 inches. I would suggest trying it out in a local store if you can.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) -- Virginia's junior member of the U.S. Senate plans to announce his first bill at the American Legion headquarters in Richmond.
Sen. Tim Kaine will be joined by representatives from veteran's service organizations and others for the Tuesday afternoon announcement. According to Kaine's office, the bill will include strategies to ease the transition of service members from active duty to the civilian workforce. It also will address employment issues Kaine has heard about from veterans across Virginia.
The former Democratic governor was elected to the Senate in November.

No one but Hannah replied to my first proposed Defend the Trend topic of chunky knits (which are a real trend), maybe because we had done macramé and it was just too similar? Maybe because this winter has slowly crushed our spirits and sapped us of our collective will to live? (It's been tough here in NYC.) Anyway, here are some of our thoughts about marshmallows, marshmallows with Instagrams printed on them and other things with Instagrams/pictures printed on them instead. Enjoy! And eat some marshmallows. Or don't. I don't know anymore.
LIZ: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/87609155225659761/
(NY people, just roast them over a radiator in your cubes.)
BRIANA: I've seen this with Oreos, but Thin Mints is next-level. Good thing I'm allergic to Thin Mints, because I feel like I'd eat a ton of these.
LILI: This looks delicious, even to someone who hates marshmallows.
LIZ: YOU GUYS: https://boomf.com/
FARIMA: Whaaat? That's awesome. I wonder what else you can put your Instagrams on.
KAYLA: Probably the biggest waste of money ever.
LIZ: OR is it the best waste of money ever?
ALYSSA: This is NOT okay. Even my food instagrams aren't appetizing as a boomf marshmallow
KAYLA: Depends. Unless I got BOOMF marshmallows that say: "M-A-R-R-Y M-E?" in hot chocolate or on SOMETHING chocolate, I'm not interested.
LILI: I want to instagram a picture of marshmallows and have them boomfed.
BRIANA: Meta BOOMF! Inception BOOMF! (I really like saying BOOMF!)
KELLY SMITH TRIMBLE: Decorating with Instagram photos is a great topic. We should all be investing in companies that make 4 x 4 frames. (Note: Pottery Barn.) I recently ordered a stack of Instagram prints from Printstagram (who has some nice related products, too). I kinda dig the giant frame with many, many Instagrams, like this:
Although, is Instagram pics in general what you're talking about? Maybe not. Oh well. Instagram stickers are cute.
BRIANA: We can talk about anything we want! I am enjoying this very mild anarchy!

There. I said it.
My pickiness has not so much to do with what I'm reading and more to do with the process of reading. What I mean is that everything about the reading process has to be just right. There needs to be the right level of light, the right level of noise, and it has to be a comfortable environment that's not too hot and not too cold.
Another symptom of my pickiness comes from an acute awareness of sitting position, or more specifically how comfortable I am while I'm reading — including whether or not the book I'm holding is properly supported. I thought the advent of ebook reading would solve that problem, but it really didn't. Sure, a Kindle device is easier to hold than an 800-page book, but support it long enough, and it feels heavier than it really is — which then becomes a huge reading distraction.
I had the opportunity to test a solution to this first-world problem when I was given Dockem's iProp.

Name That Neighborhood: Why is Jamaica in Queens?
Some New York neighborhoods are simply named for their location on a map (East Village, Midtown). Others are given prefabricated designations (SoHo, DUMBO). But a few retain names that link them intimately with their pasts. Other entries in this series can be found here.
I have a friend of Jamaican descent that lives in Jamaica, Queens. I used to think that was like a French Parisian moving to Paris, Texas. That's wrong, actually. Paris, Texas, is actually named for the French capital. Jamaica, Queens, meanwhile, has almost nothing to do with the Carribean nation that shares its name. (Although many of Jamaican island descent do live in the Queens borough today.)
Jamaica is an English distortion of an Algonquin tribe that inhabited this Long Island outpost -- the Jameco Indians (also referred to as the Yamecah tribe). They were named after the Algonquin word for beaver.
The Jameco lend their name to various parts of the city, from Jamaica Bay (the body of water in front of JFK airport) to Jamaica Avenue, a prime extension of East New York Avenue through Brooklyn and eastern Queens.
A pathway between Brooklyn and the city of Jamaica, called the Jamaica Pass, was used to the British's benefit during the war of 1776, sneaking around American forces and chasing them back to Manhattan.
By then, the British were calling the town of Jamaica by its modern name. The Dutch before them, however, had referred to the village there as Rustdorp, settling there in 1656 and officially coined by none other than Peter Stuyvesant. I leave it up to you to determine which of these names sounds like more exciting and vibrant community.
As for the island of Jamaica, it was inhabited by a tribe of Arawak indians, who named their place Xaymaca, which holds the far more flattering translation of "land of wood and water."

I've always wondered about the origin of Jamaica, Queens. Thanks for the info.ReplyDelete

Thanks for the info on the word origins of Jamaica, NY.ReplyDelete
It's interesting to note that both original words not only sound the same are connected by the fact that beavers use both wood and water to make their necessary addition to the landscape.

I have several editions of the Jamaica High School yearbook from the late 1930's and early 1940's which feature said beaveras a logo. Also does Jameco Chevrolet still exist, it did through the sixties when I was growing up in Jamaica.ReplyDelete

Jameco Chevrolet closed down a few decades ago. I think around '88-'90. It became a dairy store, then a school bus depot, and it is now a laundry mat.ReplyDelete

Rules Cyclopedia: A Perfect Idea For Rolemaster?
As much as I like the easy-entry product like the Rolemaster Express book for Rolemaster Classic, I really think a book that included all of Rolemaster Character Law, Arms Law, and Creatures & Monsters in one book--not the trilogy it is now. Figure out a way to smash down Spell Law to where it will fit. Add in a full Herbs & Poisons list, as that always seems to be a big hit with the players. Don't tell me it can't be done--D&D Rules Cyclopedia effectively compiled 4 boxed sets, plus new material, plus a setting overview, in 304 pages. Pathfinder is over 570 pages. I have to think the above Rolemaster product would be somewhere in the middle of those two, but hardly unfeasible.
Rolemaster's strength is in its charts and tables, and the abbreviated ones in the Express version of the game do not do it justice. I think the Express approach is great for a low-cost introduction to the system, but more and more, I'm growing to appreciate RPGs that give you everything needed in one compiled product.
I'm sure there are other games out here that would benefit from this approach, but Rolemaster is the first to come to mind. Thoughts, or other candidates for this treatment?

Although from a business perspective selling many smaller books is more profitable. I would love an encyclopedia but rather than do a book I suggest, a program. An app, perhaps pc and another "light" version for smart phones. You could then purchase cheap, perhaps HTML based pages or plug-ins with lots of pictures, based on the version of RM and the next "law" book or "companion" you wish to add. It would eliminate the need for individual PDF's and given ICE direction at the moment (focusing on a Facebook like game for electronic play) this new application to replace traditional books would fit well.

@Greyaxe: Those are some interesting ideas—I've always been a fan of programs as complements of systems, if not directly replacements. One of the things I'll be tracking closely is RPG integration and utilization for the i-pad.

I think there was a massive one off combined Rolemaster book right before Rolemaster Classic / Express. Very expensive and was simply the books printed one after the other under one cover. ICE may still have copies left. I'm assuming you want something much cheaper, perhaps softcover?
Well, I do think a single volume Rolemaster would be nice, as having to buy 3+ (3-6?) books just to run a game is a bit of a turnoff and while Rolemaster Express is nice, it is a bit limited and somewhat proof of concept.
HARP I think has a nice balance for the core book, but then it's not 100% Rolemaster and a bit more compact.
As for computer support, yes please! I don't think the promised HARP chargen support ever materialized and Rolemaster would benefit even more than HARP in this regard. A computer aid to track all the mods and numbers would ease the system into the background. IMO Rolemaster's one of the better candidates for a CRPG that has never gotten one.

I saw the D&D Rules Cyclopedia at a used bookstore today and picked it up to buy it. Its a rare find and I was really interested in getting it. Then I looked at the price.

We do not just listen to the message. We note the messenger. Is the source of information or education likely to be trusted and respected?
People are more likely to act on information if experts deliver it. But the similarities between the messenger and the recipient are also important. For example, it has been found that people from lower socioeconomic groups are more sensitive to the characteristics of the messenger being similar to them – in such aspects as age, gender, ethnicity, social class or status, culture and so on.
It follows that slightly older young people might be much better at delivering money management messages than someone in remote authority, such as a teacher. A retired bank manager may have acquired a lot of financial acumen over a long period. That does not necessarily mean that a young person will find their advice resonates with them sufficiently to change their behaviour.
Studies also show that in some circumstances an intervention can have greater impact by word-of-mouth recommendation. This seems particularly true among young people.

Evolution in the Holy Land
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.

All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
The words we use to talk about the Bible and science often predispose us towards unnecessary conflicts.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
New BioLogos content editor Brad Kramer reviews Chapter 1 of "Surprised by Scripture" by NT Wright, and sees Wright's work as a signpost for the future of the science/faith debate.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
From science and religion blogs: quantum uncertainty and God, the remarkable fact that we have come to understand our place in the created order, and the role of theology in making wise choices about the use of technology.
For Augustine, the literal sense of scripture is not a scientific narrative of physical reality, but a liturgical and poetic narrative of God's awesome power at the dawn of history. This is a vital thread in the story of how to read Genesis.
Christ is the reason the natural sciences work: he is the source of the laws of nature, and he contains and underpins the natural sciences. Christ is the pattern for all created things, while the Spirit – his presence in the created world – breathes the divine fire into the equations.
What we do learn from scripture is that there is only one Creator and that there's a clear distinction between God and the created world. And that we who are created in the image of God are able to investigate a creation that is remarkably tuned for our discovery.
What we do learn from scripture is that there is only one Creator and that there's a clear distinction between God and the created world. And that we who are created in the image of God are able to investigate a creation that is remarkably tuned for our discovery.
We now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul's letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.
Four Views on the Historical Adam shows that evangelical Christians are far from agreeing on the particulars of Adam and Eve. But this book also makes clear that there is strong agreement among evangelical Christians on the fundamentals of the Christian faith. We agree that all Scripture is inspired by God and authoritative, even while disagreeing on the interpretation of some passages.
The key point of continuity between redemption and creation is the idea that the future can be different from the past, i.e., the key is eschatology. More abstractly put, God does new things.
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
These excerpts from Origins: Christian Perspectives on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design, written by BioLogos president Deborah Haarsma and her husband Loren Haarsma, offer a sampling of the book's many topics, from exploring our disagreements and agreements on origins as Christians to explaining scientific processes to looking at how we read Genesis.
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
In this series, Kathryn Applegate addresses the concern that randomness implies the absence of God's activity and involvement in the natural world. She begins by clearing up some common misconceptions about the concept of "randomness", and later focuses on the mechanisms of the immune system to demonstrate that God works through random processes to preserve life. Far from being an indication of a "godless" universe, one might conclude that randomness is one of God's favorite mechanisms for creating and sustaining life!
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Tulsa Community College Medical Assistant Program FAQs
Q. When can I enter the program?
A. Generally, a new class is accepted for August of each year. However, a student may begin his/her plan of study in January or in the summer with either prerequisite courses or program requirements.
Q. Does acceptance to Tulsa Community College guarantee admission to the program?
A. No. Since there are a limited number of positions in the program, admission is selective based on ACT, SAT, or CPT test scores, previous college performance if applicable, high school performance, and personal interview.
Q. Can I participate in the program on a part-time basis?
A. Yes, however, courses must be taken in proper sequence. Courses may not be offered every semester. There is a two year limit for completion of the core courses of the program.
Q. Does taking prerequisite courses prior to admission into the program guarantee admission?
A. No, although it would be viewed favorably, particularly if the student has done well.
Q. How much time per week will I spend at the college?
A. The MA courses are 50% online courses. They generally meet on Mondays and Wednesdays. The number of hours a student would be in class depends on whether they are full-time or part-time students. Full-time students are in class for about 12 hours per week but they will have coursework to complete on their own time outside of class that could take from 12 -18 hours per week.
Q. How much time per week will I spend in my clinical externship?
A. The clinical externship requires a minimum of 200 contact hours working as a medical assistant in an ambulatory care setting which is 40 hours per week for a 5 week period.
Q. Are uniforms furnished?
