Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Athens Hop-on Hop-off Tour. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
A great way to get to know the city. Ticket agents were very friendly and helpful.
Best way to travel round athens you can spend as little or lot of time at each attraction buses was regular and with great tour information on all places I would recommend viator to all
WE bought a two day ticket. It was wonderful and we learned quite a bit about the city too.
We had two days in Athens and the hop-on hop-off tour bus was the best option. On the first day we did the entire 90 minute circle and listened to the audio of each place. There are 3 stops in the same square so it allowed us to easily start off at the beginning, middle, or towards the end so we didn't need to start in the same place everytime if we wanted to do a higher number stop. Would recommend.
This tour was amazing!
This tour was amazing!
Fabulous value for money. Highly recommended.
takes in all the main attractions and allows you to see the sights at your own pace. Well worth the money and very good sights to visit.
Great way to get bearings and see the city.
Kirk and Eileen
The best way to see all of Athens.
Excellent buses and commentary in four languages, very convenient bus every half an hour. The commentary was very clear and outstanding. The day was hot and I chose wisely to sit downstairs and not on the open upper deck. All important spots are covered. I particularly spent more time at the Temple of Zeus, the changing of the guards at the Parliament and the National Gardnes, and also Plaka which is wonderful to walk around in. I did not visit the Acropolis as I had already seen it earlier on another trip.
this was an excellent idea and very well organised with different coloured bus stops to match the bus being used. much better organised than the Rome activity of the same name.
I was able to catch the bus just around the corner from my hotel - the views from the top gave me perfect panoramic pictures!
Fun bus ride around athens to see all the sites. The driver was friendly and the audio guide was helpful!
The buses run frequently and are near the common touristy places to stop. We basically used it like a taxi- just be sure to check the start/end times. The last bus was around 830 pm. Downtown Athens was fairly easily to walk though- so even if you were out later than the bus it doesn't seem to far to walk... Maybe a few miles- but lots of open shops, etc at night to keep you entertained.

It's All Done with Mirrors (1966)
Plot Summary
Robinson is kidnapped by enemy agents and taken to a psychiatrist, Dr. Karolyi. The doctor specializes in behavior modification, and begins a process intended to brainwash Robinson. Using pain, Dr. Karolyi breaks down Robinson to the point of dependency and control. Dr. Karolyi then brainwashes Robinson into believing Scott is a traitor, a double agent. Robinson is ordered to return to Scott, ready to terminate his partner when given the order. The time comes in a certain upscale restaurant where the death of Scott by Robinson would most hurt the image of the United States. But Robinson fails in his attempt to kill Scott. Alerted that Robinson is a rogue agent, the department decides to terminate Robinson if he cannot be stopped. Scott protests, and is given forty-eight hours to bring in Robinson. After that, Robinson is to be killed on sight.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Flames Are Wild
by Paul on 04/18/06 at 01:45 PM ET
Comments (0)
So here we are on the cusp of another playoff run by the Calgary Flames, and all of Canada (and even a few pockets of hockey fans in the US) is singing the praises of the tough-as-nails Flames; the darlings of "old school" hockey; that team that makes you pay for every inch of ice; especially should you happen to want an inch or two inside the Calgary blue line. Meanwhile, this same group quietly celebrates the inability of the Minnesota Wild, that boring, defensive-minded, trapping, collection of robots manipulated by Jacques Lemaire; the coach that is often cited as the poster child for the ruination of hockey. Minnesota, they say, is proof positive that the old way is a thing of the past in the new NHL; and they couldn't be happier for it. Funny, but as the season comes to a close there are a couple of trends that make the two teams eerily similar.continued

Brief Overview of the Social Model Approach
Room, Joshua, Kaskutas, Lee Ann, Piroth, Kirsten V., Contemporary Drug Problems
Social Model Programs (SMPs) were developed by non-medical, non-academic practitioners, most of whom were in recovery, and there is little published academic literature on these programs. Little is known in professional circles about "social model" as a discrete paradigm, and what is known is often confused with other models of treatment/recovery. To clarify just what is referred to in this issue as "social model, " this paper briefly reviews key available literature and the social and political milestones that shaped the development of SMPs in California. A brief description of the qualitative methodology underlying all of the papers in this special issue is also included.
Social model programs (SMPs) were developed by non-medical, non-academic practitioners, most of whom were in recovery; thus there is little published academic literature on their approach. Much of the writing that does exist has been "fugitive," such as unpublished conference papers and reports published locally by California state agencies or SMP associations (the California Association of Alcoholic Recovery Homes, CAARH, for example). Little is known in professional circles about "social model" as a discrete paradigm, and what is known is often confused with other models of treatment and recovery. In order to clarify just what is referred to in this special issue as "social model," this article briefly reviews key available literature and the social and political milestones that shaped the development of SMPs in California. A brief description of the qualitative observation and analysis methodology underlying all of the papers in this issue is also included.
Defining the social model approach
The Institute of Medicine singled out the California social model approach as "the most prominent example of the use of the sociocultural model in formal treatment" (Institute of Medicine, 1990), and it recommended that SMPs be further evaluated to legitimize the approach. Social model philosophy as expressed in SMPs, in keeping with the sociocultural perspective, holds that alcohol problems are the consequence of a lifetime socialization in a social context that in some way encourages the drinking of alcohol. Treatment thus focuses on the social environment as well as the individual, and attempts to lead participants not only to personal abstention from alcohol and drug use, but also to cultivation of a sober lifestyle and community.
Although there are variations between programs, the social model expression of this philosophy focuses on program environments staffed by nonprofessional or paraprofessional staff who are themselves in recovery. Solidly founded in both the 12 steps and the 12 traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous, the programs seek to instill in participants a sense of responsibility for their own recovery and for the larger task of bringing recovery to the community of which they are a part. At the programmatic level, SMPs rely heavily on peer helping techniques (both staff-to-participant and participant-to-participant practices), and also refrain from institutional or hierarchical structures that would encourage staff oversight or discourage participant responsibility for their own recovery. As much as possible, SMPs encourage residents to run their own programs (see Borkman, 1998b, in this issue).
Since other approaches also acknowledge the role of the environment in treatment and recovery, there has been much confusion about what is the essence of the social model approach in comparison not only to medically oriented programs but also relative to other sociocultural programs such as the Oxford House movement, the prototypical "halfway house," or the therapeutic community. Thus it is important to distinguish SMPs from their sociocultural brethren at least superficially.
Briefly, halfway houses and therapeutic communities (TCs) differ from social model with respect to their funding mechanisms, their degree of professionalization, and the amount of freedom and control that program participants have in the program. …

When we go to the doctor to seek care, we expect that we will discuss our options with our doctor and make an informed decision. It is a decision made between patients and the medical professionals we trust. But what if a third party had the final decision on what type of care you receive or even whether you receive care at all? What if this third party deemed you too high a cost to receive critical life-impacting care?
As states begin to implement the Affordable Care Act and their own health reforms, that is exactly what is happening in some states. Oregon has created a government agency to cut healthcare costs by overruling treatment decisions made by doctors and patients. This includes denying coverage for some cancer patients based on their odds of survival.
This simply cannot happen in Louisiana. The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society believes that the decision to continue or terminate specific treatments should be between patients and their providers. With advancements in science, patients who previously may not have had many options are living long, productive lives.
Rep. Scott Simon, R-Abita Springs, and Sen. Ben Nevers, D-Bogalusa, have introduced bipartisan "Right to Treatment" legislation. This legislation will ensure that no panel of government appointees can restrict access to medically appropriate treatment prescribed by a physician and agreed on by a fully informed patient or patient's legal guardian. It will ensure that these entities cannot refuse to cover treatment provided to patients near the end of life that is consistent with the best practices for treatment of this disease or condition.
A recent poll from the Louisiana State Medical Society found that nearly eight out of 10 Louisianans support implementing laws that require insurers and state health programs to provide health coverage to people with potentially terminal diseases. The Louisiana Legislature should support its constituents by supporting this critical legislation.
Patients fighting life-threatening cancer diagnoses already have limited options for care or treatment. If third party groups decide to further limit or even deny access to these options, it makes an already overwhelming time even more difficult. It forces them to worry not only about fighting their disease, but also fighting the system to get access to the treatment they so desperately need.
This preventative legislation will help protect patients from future political efforts to cut costs by adopting Oregon's model. It will protect the right of every patient to receive treatment for as long as possible and achieve the best possible quality of life.

Pregnant Kate Middleton at Trooping the Color Pictures
Kate Middleton Goes Pink For Her Final Public Appearance
Kate Middleton made what many believe will be her very last public appearance in London yesterday when she attended the Trooping the Colour parade. She wore a pale pink Alexander McQueen coat as she rode alongside Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, and Prince Harry at the annual event that serves as a belated public celebration of Queen Elizabeth II's birthday. Prince William and Prince Charles did not ride with Kate's group as they were taking part in the military ceremony alongside Anne, Princess Royal. Prince William is the Colonel of the Irish Guards while Charles is the Colonel of the Welsh Guards and Anne is the Colonel of the Blues and Royals, so they all rode in the ceremony on horseback. Later, the whole group met up, along with Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie and other royals, to look out from the balcony at Buckingham Palace. Notably absent was Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who is still recovering in the hospital after undergoing surgery. Princes Harry and William paid their grandfather a visit at the hospital yesterday, fueling speculation that he was on the mend.
The Duchess of Cambridge's visit to the Trooping the Colour comes just two days after she made her final solo appearance on Thursday in Southampton. She was on hand to christen a Princess Cruises ship, which, interesting enough, Princess Diana also did in 1984. Be sure to check out all of Kate Middleton's official appearances while pregnant, and don't forget to weigh in on the royal baby's name before Kate gives birth in July!

Busy weekend. The good kind of busy. After weeks of searching, we might just have found our house.
Two people with serious "me time" needs and too many clothes cannot long survive in a 1,600 square foot townhouse — no matter how good the closet space is. Not if they don't want to hurt each other.
(Yeah, Jesse, I'll probably take the time to explain just why you were wrong. Although I'll admit right up front that of all bloggers, I have no excuse for complaining when someone else is being snide.)

As a resident of Manhattan, I have zero sympathy…no, make that negative sympathy for someone with 1600 sq. ft. between two people and not enough "me" space. That's a stately pleasure dome compared to the rabbit warrens people put up with out here. I mean, congratulations on moving, it's your own page and you're not forcing me to read it let alone comment, but Jesus Wept, a friend of mine was paying $800 for a ROOM in a 500 square foot sixth floor walkup (non doorman) apartment that he was SHARING with two other people. Ever wonder why the homicide rate is so high in NYC?
Actually, I guess that last sentence sort of supports with your original point. Huh.

I was kind of thinking the same thing–my wife and I have our own "me time" and storage needs, as well as a 6-year-old, and our current dwelling, at just over 1000 square feet, is the largest we've lived in in almost 14 years together. (Of course, there was the small matter of a divorce in year 5, but it didn't last.)
But best of luck with the house search, Steven.

In defense of our favorite pundit…people choosing to live in Manhatten know what they are getting. They are trading space for convenience. I have 4200 sq feet on 1/2 acre – but I live 50 miles outside of city. (not NY) It's a trade off, I chose space for the wife, kids, and dogs over convenience.

was looking at nyc.. 5k for a 3bdrm… damn! that's like 4 tmes what i pay for a 4bdrm house, not apartment.. but that;s life in the big city…
fyi, before, yes before, housing, adjustment from toronto for a major corp is +130% of salary… just for cost of living in NYC..
another major corp has a 20kUS salary differential between connecticut and nyc.. and it still makes you more cash to live + work in Connecticut… NYC is only for rich people.. and even then it's rough

Tiny Beetles, Huge Consequences
by Susan Laszewski
A group of researchers from 12 universities has recently published a paper that takes a look at the influence animals have on carbon storage and exchange — an influence they say is often overlooked despite the prevalence of discussion on how plants impact carbon storage. Among the examples discussed in "Animating the Carbon Cycle," published in Ecosystems, is an issue that American Forests has been working to combat. We've written befo... (Read More)
Here, But Functionally Gone
by Susan Laszewski
Extinction. The end of a species; no coming back. Many conservation efforts strive to save species from this fate, and a species' risk of extinction can also be a major factor in determining its listing as endangered. A recent study published in Nature suggests, though, that we may want to pay a bit more attention to something called "functional extinction" — the point at which a species has too few members to continue filling its ecol...

Charred Forests, Melting Snow
by Susan Laszewski
You know how when it's really hot out, you're better off leaving the black shirt in the closet and going for something lighter? Well, according to new research, forests are having a similar issue. A study, conducted by Oregon State University researchers, funded by the National Science Foundation and published in Geophysical Research Letters, found that snowpack melts faster in forests which have been charred by wildfire. The researchers e... (Read More)

(HIGHTSTOWN, NJ) -- The adult video business continues its impressive growth and retailers should strongly consider carrying adult product to bolster their bottom line. This is according to International Video Distributors' (IVD) president, Frank Kay. IVD is the East Coast's largest adult video distributor. The recent Chapter 11 filing of Video Update, a video chain with 620 stores and news of Hollywood Video's (the country's second largest video chain with roughly 1000 stores) downsizing has prompted speculations about the retail video business in general. Blockbuster's third quarter loss only adds to those arguments. Blockbuster is the nation's largest video chain with roughly 4000 stores controlling about 32% of the domestic video rental market. According to the National Association of Video Distributors, nearly 1400 independents folded in 1999 and another 285 went out of business in the first quarter of 2000. Additionally, Paul Kagan Associates, a respected research firm, called video rental a ``dying business''. Contrary to the mainstream video business, adult videos are doing quite well. IVD General Manager, Mike Savage, has estimated year-to-year increased sales of approximately 30%. Savage attributes the impressive figures on two major factors - independent video retailers are now looking to distinguish themselves from the big chains who refuse to carry adult material; and the increased acceptance of adult into the mainstream arena. The latter factor has been demonstrated time and again by the coverage of adult in general media. In fact, the New York Times recently published an article by Timothy Egan in their Technology section entitled ``Technology Sent Wall Street Into Market for Porn''. Forrester Research, a Cambridge, MA research firm, and Securities and Exchange Commission filings indicate that the business of selling sexual desire through images has become a $10 billion annual industry. Additionally, according to Adult Video News, an industry magazine that is to adult films what the trade publication Billboard is to the music industry, last year, there were 711 million rentals of hard-core sex films. The New York Times article points out that at home, Americans buy or rent more than $4 billion a year worth of graphic sex videos from retail outlets and spend an additional $800 million on less explicit sexual films - all told, this accounts for about 32 percent of the business for general-interest video retailers that carry adult topics. ``Our numbers are up and it's largely due to the acceptance of adult in mainstream. Vivid (a leader in the adult industry) is in the midst of taking their company public. It's a feat no one could have imagined back in the eighties when the only way people had access to adult film was to go through the ordeal of a trip to a run-down part of town and purchase it from a ''sleazy`` adult bookstore.'' says Kay. Kay goes on to say ``Considering the current situation of mainstream video, video retailers should seriously consider carrying adult product to help bolster their bottom line. Aside from the competitive advantage this presents against the big chains, their customers will be thankful for the added convenience. They won't have to make two trips for different themes (mainstream and adult). Besides, if you study most of the independents that have recently gone out of business, a majority did not carry an adult line. That should stand for something.''

What makes the charging so long is the output voltage from the wall plug...You need at least a 2 amp output wall plug....Most of the RTF models come with a 1 amp wall plug which will only give you .7 amps tp charge with...I have a 4 year old walkera charger that will charge a 3s 2200mah battery in 45 minutes and that is only because my wall plug is rated at 2.5 amps 14 volts.....
Jun 02, 2010, 03:45 PM | |
Well no, increasing the capacity of the power supply won't make it charge any faster, because the charging circuit itself is set to output 350mA as the charge rate, and it may also go into trickle toward the end of the charging cycle, making it take even longer.
There is no way around the math - 2200mAh divided by 350mA is about 6.5 hours. The only way to fix that is with a better charger. And then yes, you need a power supply that can handle the wattage. |

Get yourself a thunder ac6 charger... $55 from xheli or you can buy a triton2 eq(similar features, several better, cutomer support and warranty) for $175. Both will charge anything that can be charged. I charge 6S 4800mAh packs in about 210 minutes. The ac6 will go up to 5A charge, but theres a table with limitations based on pack size, cell count and safety. My 6S 4800mAh packs are set to charge at 4.8A, but is automatically limited to roughly 2.6A and goes down as the pack nears full charge(1.4A average).
Jun 03, 2010, 12:47 PM | |
It's because the charger is limited by wattage, amperage is not really limited. The Thunder Power AC6 is a 50-watt charger... so, a 6S battery is limited to just under 2 amps (due to its 25.2V final charge level). This can make the charge time a lot longer. The more modern setup is to use a powerful charger, and use quality batteries, and then charge at a high rate - most of the time my batteries charge in 15 minutes these days. I'm using the Hyperion charger (250-watt limit), and the Hyperion batteries which can charge at up to 5C - it is a little more money for this setup, but it saves boat loads of time. Now still, I have about a 10-amp limit for a 6S battery, 20-amp limit for a 3S - so some of the larger packs still can't be charged very quickly. So... that is what you get for $100 more on a charger - you save maybe 90 minutes every time you charge.

I find these responses(phoenix) a complete 180 from those on the other sites I subscribe to. Ah yes and so goes the spread of my opinion of your' companies. Remember, if somthing is only 10 inches tall, don't tell tell people its 2 feet. All you will end up with is inflated sales and pissed of customers...... All over a charger.

I think you are over reacting, calm down, get a proper charger, I have 4 of these:
http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=7028 and 3 of these: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s.../Charger_2S~4S and while you are at it pick up a few of these: http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbyking/s...y_Monitor_2-6S Welcome to the insanity. BTW, if you shop smart at xheli, hobbypartz you can pick up some nice gear at good prices. For problems goto rcdiscuss.com and speak to Andy. Probably will not help now that you have called, the phone people are dks. Good luck, hope you like your new heli. |

Oh you got a bum deal... definitely. The advertising differed from the product in critical technical capabilities, and I think you have a right to get what you thought you were paying for. However, many people in this hobby do not bother with demanding proper customer service. There are people who will receive a brand-new, but broken product from a vendor, and they will just fix it themselves. As a community, we need to stop doing that, and send the message that we won't accept items that aren't suitable for sale. The issue with the charger not being up to spec is a big problem - they misrepresented the item on their web page, and then they insulted you by claiming it didn't really say that.
The reason I posted about better chargers though... is even if the charger was up to the spec on the web page, it would still be taking 2-3 hours to charge your batteries, and in my mind, that sucks. |

As far as charging batteries with the factory included chargers, Im speaking only from my experience with the ESKY belt Cps and King2 RTF packages I have bought in the past and using the included Chargers to charge my 2100 and 2200 3s Battery packs. I can honestly say they did not ever take 6 hours to charge or even close. The Charger itself is the EK2-0851, it has an output of 0.8A . Charging time for me was about half hour to 1 1/2 hours max depending on how much I ran the battery down. I also have another battery charger bought for charging my batteries and yes, you will spend about $75 plus for a good one. 350 ma does seem awfully low for charging a 3S 2200 pack and bares out that it will take a long time to charge such a battery.

Now I'm seriously curious - why should they? So far I've never worked with energy scales where quantization of that order of magnitude would matter (10^-9 vs. 10^-35 meter), so I'm curious where that comes from.

Grizzlies give Celtics a beating in Boston
Share This Story
The Memphis Grizzlies keep winning on the road.And now they're even beating Boston.
Rudy Gay scored 28 points on Wednesday night to lead Memphis to a 111-91 victory over the Celtics and give the Grizzlies a franchise-record seventh straight road win. The previous six were against non-contenders, but this was Memphis' first victory over the Celtics in seven tries.
"It wasn't about them. It was more about us," Gay said. "When you look at their lineup you have to respect them. They have three Hall of Famers."
O.J. Mayo scored 17 points and Zach Randolph had 13 points and 10 rebounds for Memphis.
Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo scored 17 points apiece, and Rondo added eight assists for the Celtics. It matched Boston's worst loss of the season, tying a 20-point loss to Cleveland last month that was the worst loss for the Celtics with Kevin Garnett in the lineup.
"They just came in and totally annihilated us," said Garnett, who scored six points in 26 minutes. "We're not looking down to May and April right now, right now we need to be taking care of March. That's the mindset. We've got to do it soon, and do it immediately."
The Celtics lost 86-84 in Milwaukee on Tuesday night to snap a four-game winning streak, then flew back to Boston. They fell to 7-6 in the second half of back-to-back games.
"It's a big win and we're happy with the win, but we know we caught a break because the Celtics played last night," Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins said. "They had a tough game in Milwaukee last night and had to travel home. In my mind, they're still one of the top three teams in the Eastern Conference."
Celtics coach Doc Rivers stood on the court with his arms folded and his jaw clenched during one fourth-quarter timeout as the fans, who booed the team into the locker room at halftime, filed for the exits. He opened his talk with reporters by joking that the only positive for him was when the announcer said, "Two minutes left in the game."
Even his jokes were flat.
Kevin Garnett suffered his worst loss since joining the Celtics.Brian Babineau
"The disappointing thing about tonight and other games is our lack of offense is dictating how we play defense," Rivers said. "They get an offensive rebound and make a 3, and you can see the heads hanging again. ... We just didn't seem like we had the fight to fight through that."
Memphis led by 15 after the first quarter, by 22 at the half and by 19 after three. The Grizzlies led by as many as 29 in the fourth quarter, when Garnett never got off the bench.
Celtics fans weren't about to sit still, though.
They emptied the TD Garden during midway through the fourth quarter, with Boston trailing by 25. The 20-point defeat matched the worst with Garnett. They had a 31-point loss, also to Cleveland, in a game that Garnett missed last April with a knee injury.
Allen, who was 0 for 3 on Tuesday night, scored a team-high six points in the first quarter against Memphis - the only Celtic to make more than one basket in the period.
Memphis scored the last eight points of the quarter to take a 27-12 lead - a season low in points for Boston in the first quarter. The Grizzlies scored nine of the last 11 in the second quarter to make it 55-33; the 33 points also were a season low for a first half for Boston.
NOTES: Each Celtic had a signed boxing glove from Manny Pacquiao in his locker before the game. "Pacquiao is a huge Celtics fan," Boston coach Doc Rivers said. "He tried to get in our locker room before our game in Los Angeles." ... Brian Scalabrine was inactive for matchup reasons, Rivers said. ... Randolph returned to the floor after missing Memphis' previous game with tightness in his lower back. ... Michael Finley made his first appearance in Boston with the Celtics, scoring 10 in 14 minutes.
