It is a perfect and comfortable apartment at Donatello Hotel. The staff at the hotel is receptive and friendly. It´s location at Civic Center is the best in San Francisco. Didn´t meet Dana, but my experience was perfect.
Dana was a great host, and answered all my questions in a timely manner. We had an employee from out of town stay here, and he said he would love to stay there again. It is a great price for the location (a block from Union Square), and our employee said the room was great as well.
Dana's communication with me before the trip was exceptional. I was completely up to speed on the process and what to expect before arriving. All went exactly as I expected and the experience was wonderful. The room and everything in it was clean, functional, and attractive. Everyone employee of the hotel that we interacted with were incredibly helpful and friendly. We politely turned down the offer to sit through the marketing pitch but the concierge we turned down was friendly and helped us throughout our 3 night stay. Joe, one of the bellhops, helped us more our luggage to our room. He remembered our names and we chatted with him throughout our stay. The day we checked out he gave my daughter a little gift and wished us well on our journey home. The valet guys were helpful and friendly, offering advice on directions and tips to avoid getting our car broken into at various spots in the city. My wife loved the free morning coffee on the rooftop patio and she also tool advantage of the exercise room. We asked for a quiet room and were given 717. Our window faced east and was above an apparently unused rooftop parking lot and an empty building awaiting to be rehabbed. It was indeed very quiet. The location is excellent with a cable car only a block away. My daughter and I rode it every day and night. We have no reason to look for another hotel the next time we travel to San Francisco.
Great hotel, awesome location and great price!
This was a really convenient airbnb experience and I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a hotel experience. Checking in was simple and we luckily got away without getting asked if we were interested in a timeshare presentation. The hotel was in a pretty good location - easy enough to get to and it was safe. There weren't a ton of restaurants within close walking distance that we were interested in, though. I thought this was a great value. The room was massive and comfortable - I'm sure a room of a similar size in the area would be much more costly. Our only complaint has nothing to do with the host, but with the hotel staff. Shortly after checking into our room, someone entered without knocking. She seemed to be confused and even though we were asking/telling her not to come in, she continued. It was quite awkward and left a bit of a bad taste in our mouths. That was probably a fluke thing, though.
I am happy you enjoyed your stay, Julia. Interesting experience. It may have been another guest who was erroneously checked in to your room. I have had that happen to me at a hotel before. Either way, glad it did not spoil an otherwise pleasurable stay!
The location was perfect for a single traveller. The reception I received was very warm and friendly. The room was more than adequate with all the facilities I required. It was clean, quiet and secure. I would recommend for a visit near the centre.
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. It looks like Dana is renting on airbnb his time share that he owns at the Donatello Hotel in downtown San Fransisco, so it was just like staying at a nice hotel, but paid for through airbnb, and probably at a better price. The room was just as it looked like in the picture: modern style with lots of upgrades. The location is a convenient and central place in downtown San Fransisco. We never met Dana face to face, but it wasn't necessary. He emailed all the relevant information, making check in and out very easy. I would definitely stay there again.
This host has 467 reviews for other properties.
Married with three beautiful young daughters. At this point in my life, my only hobbies are whatever I am doing with my girls. Some may call it boring. I call it joy.
I am a timeshare owner who loves to travel. Timeshares (resale, NEVER EVER direct from developer NO MATTER WHAT) have immeasurably enhanced my family's travel lifestyle.

Unified Monitoring in SaaS mode
These services offer integrated real-time monitoring of service levels, on a subscription basis, from the Bull Service Assurance Center. They provide an integrated and comprehensive view of the performance of all layers of the IT infrastructure – physical, virtual and Cloud – from energy data right through to the user experience. And they cover all the various infrastructure components (networks, servers, storage) and intermediate layers (DBMS, middleware, buses).
To know more >
Capacity planning in SaaS mode
Capacity planning gives IT Departments an acurate view of how their IT resources are used over time, so they can be adjusted to meet current and future user needs. An increasingly difficult and strategic task as information systems become ever more complex. Bull offers a range of services to support its customers: from information gathering 'as a Service' right through to the development of customized dashboards and recommending action plans for improvement.
DCIM in SaaS mode
Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) is a new approach that brings together facilities management and the IT Department in a bid to align all IT and non-IT components within the Data Center. It involves putting in place the organization structures, processes and tools that will enable Data Center Managers to control energy and capacity in a structured and professional way. DCIM organizes the gathering, sharing and analysis of information (the energy consumption of individual workstations, environmental parameters…) so, for instance, the energy consumption of a particular application service can be understood, or relevant data can be fed into reporting and eco-governance tools in real time. By freeing up the flow of communications and improving decision-making at every level, it ensures much more proactive management and boosts operational productivity.
Bull provides a specific approach, from consulting right through to monitoring in SaaS mode.
High Availability services
Nowadays, information systems and business operations are so interdependent that even a few minutes of downtime can have serious consequences for the organization's reputation, productivity and finances. Taking a service center-type approach, aligned with ITIL, we offer services that have been specifically designed for the most critical environments. Using state-of-the-art tools and a highly skilled team of experts, the Bull Service Assurance Center acts as 'mission control': operating 24x and offering high added value secure services, including proactive behavioural analysis of your infrastructure coupled with ongoing monitoring to react instantly to any alert. Based at Bull's R&D center, the team of engineers has access to the top experts, further boosting its technical potential and effectiveness.

Infrastructure support Services
The claim that information systems are generally getting more complex should come as no surprise to anyone! The problem is that the effective management of how these systems react is beyond the scope of many companies. This type of approach requires both solid technological expertise and a good knowledge of the customer's environment: what are the critical applications, what specific developments have been done, what security rules are in force… It involves complementing the role of production, carrying out corrective and analytical tasks to ensure a more in-depth technical risk assessment and building reliable scenarios as to how the system will evolve. That's what we offer in our infrastructure support services, which include technical administration services (to maintain stability), as well as system performance assistance, secure back-ups and infrastructure scalability management, especially through the management of technical layers and ensuring that chains of connectivity are not broken.

whitneysmith :: Bird Cake Stand
These super cute bird cake stands would make any treat a visual, well... treat! Fantastic for anything from cupcakes to pastries to chocolates to cheese!
Like the Corinthian capitols in Roman architecture, the Augustus cast resin feeders in a distressed antique white finish are adorned with scrolling acanthus leaves. (Includes Stainless Steel Bowls) Available in 3 sizes!
Added 5 Years Ago from Chow-hounds -
Add cut-outs and neon colors to a white block and voila... A funky piece of furniture to showcase your fave reads.
This stand is not just for cupcakes. It also functions wonderfully as a candle holder, a tray to hold small items such as rings, a sweet little condiment dish for a get-together with friends, or a display piece.
fun. would be even better if it swiveled at multiple points.
These 3 tier platters come in a wide variety of colors.
Added 6 Years Ago from Jellybean -
I'm sure I recommended another like this before, but I reiterate. This would make such a fantastic and whimsical statement in an entryway. I love the retro style of the owl and it's fantastic functionality as an umbrella stand.
Added 6 Years Ago from Urban Outfitters -
I love this bedside table solution. The perfect nightstand is always hard to find and this one is great for someone that needs to make the most of small spaces.
Added 6 Years Ago from Scandinaviandesigncenter -
I have a pair of studio lamps in my errrr...studio. But they're too industrial looking and way too dangerous (fire hazard). These on the other hand are less threatening and would look great in the home or home office.
These porcelain cake stands designed in Sweden are beautiful. Definitely my favorite cake stand I've come across. Add a wide bell jar and top and its perfection.
I second that!
great concept "Apple TC"
Added 7 Years Ago from The Apple Store -
The light that looks like a cross between Sigmund the Sea Monster and Cousin It.
Added 7 Years Ago from Oliounited -
perfect way to organize your jewelry.
Keep your little eggs warm with a warmer/cozy. I'll admit, I've never heard of such a thing, but hey, I'll try anything once.
Added 7 Years Ago from Funktionalley -
This has got to be the BEST looking and original outdoor umbrella stand ever! I am so excited about it and the price. Who wouldn't love a happy elephant helper!

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2015
Where did the English Pemble family come from? What is the English Pemble family crest and coat of arms? When did the Pemble family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Pemble family history? The surname is most likely a habitation name derived from the place named Pendle Forest, Lancashire.Spelling variations of this family name include: Pendle, Penthill, Penderell, Pemble and others. First found in Hertfordshire at Pendley, a rarely referenced village near Tring. The village dates back to about the 4th century and is home to Pendley Manor which dates back to about the same time. According to legend, the ancient manor was ceased by William the Conqueror and passed to his brother in law, Robert, Earl of Moretain. From that early reference, it passed through many hands having many restorations to become a hotel and conference center today. As far as the surname is concerned, one of the first listings of the ancient name was in Leicester where Richard Pendorayl was first listed in the year 1253 on the list of Seals given to the Knights of Leicester. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Pemble research. Another 235 words(17 lines of text) covering the years 1455, 1487, 1787, 1591 and 1623 are included under the topic Early Pemble History in all our PDF Extended History products. Another 51 words(4 lines of text) are included under the topic Early Pemble Notables in all our PDF Extended History products. Some of the first settlers of this family name were: Pemble Settlers in United States in the 20th Century
The Pemble Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Pemble Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons.

If the NBA's resident Discount Double-Checker is going to run his mouth, it might carry more weight if his team could actually beat the team he's speaking ill of. The Chicago Bulls built up a 20+ point lead Friday night against the New York Knicks — in Madison Square Garden, no less — before easing up on the gas pedal en route to a 108-101 win. Afterwards, three-point specialist Steve Novak fired a shot at Bulls guard (and former Knick) Nate Robinson, referring to the diminutive spark plug as "Nathan", and informing him that he can be "just like me" with his on-court antics. Well, "Nathan" got the last laugh, which is what the Bulls seem to be doing lately, thanks to a 3-0 record this season against their big city rival. [Jesus Blas] Article found on: Cosby Sweaters

Kuwait: Forum to discuss humanitarian principles and challenges currently facing humanitarian work
06-05-2014 News Release 14/70
Kuwait (ICRC) – The first Kuwait International Forum for Humanitarian Workers, the aim of which is to discuss current challenges and principles relating to humanitarian work, started today at the headquarters of the International Islamic Charity Organization in Kuwait. The event will last two days.
The forum is jointly organized by the regional delegation of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Kuwait, the International Islamic Charity Organization, the Kuwait Red Crescent Society, Direct Aid, Patients' Help Fund, the General Secretariat of Endowment in Kuwait, Zakat House and Rahma International Society. High-level representatives of the main organizing institutions and charities inaugurated the forum.
Over 100 representatives of governmental and non-governmental Kuwaiti organizations, Islamic charities and the Kuwait Red Crescent Society are taking part in the event, as are a number of national and international humanitarian practitioners from abroad. The forum provides an opportunity to share ideas and exchange views on best practices in the humanitarian field and to strengthen coordination among local and international humanitarian organizations.
"The forum gives humanitarians an opportunity to openly discuss and share views about the present and future of humanitarian work, and about topics such as the role of women and youth in this field," said Gérard Peytrignet, head of the ICRC's regional delegation for the Gulf countries in Kuwait. "The basic principles of humanitarian work and the relevance of codes of conduct in implementing field programmes will also be discussed."
In the opening speech, Dr Abdallah M. Al-Maatouq, chairman of the International Islamic Charity Organization, stressed the importance of supporting the "partnership efforts and consolidating the communication and consultation bridges among various humanitarian actors in order to meet the increasing needs of the victims of armed conflicts and natural disasters."
The forum will emphasize Kuwait's leading role in the field of humanitarian aid and its generosity and solidarity towards victims of conflicts, crises and other emergencies, a role that was highlighted at the international donor conferences on Syria in 2013 and 2014.
Alongside its other activities, the ICRC endeavours to strengthen its relationship and dialogue with civil society and with non-governmental and charitable organizations, and to spread knowledge of international humanitarian law and humanitarian principles. It also strives to discuss common points of reference and improved coordination in humanitarian activities with Islamic circles and charities in the region.

Around the world in 195 days (and 6 hours) - on a bicycle
Twenty-five year-old Mark Beaumont was on a mission - he wanted to establish a new record for being the fastest man around the world on a bicycle - and establish he did. He completed the trip in about 195 days, breaking the existing world record of 276 days, set by Steven Strange, by a whopping 81 days!
His 18,000 mile, seven-month journey started in Paris on August 5th last year, took him through 20 countries, including Pakistan, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and the United States (see his route map below)
Mark rode an average of 91 miles a day on his road bike while carrying a tent and about 160 pounds of other equipment. He slept wherever he could find a safe spot at night, sometimes in hotels and on other nights in his tent.
In order to keep up his energy, he had to eat about 6,000 calories a day (a normal person eats about 2,000), a feat he found a little difficult in some parts of the world. He says his biggest challenge was finding "healthy" options, especially in Australia and the U.S.A. In the Australian Outback, where shops are scattered every two hundred miles or so, he was forced to survive on chocolates (yum) and cans of baked beans. He believes this "junk" food slowed him down and that he that could have ridden much faster had he had more healthy food options.
Mark kept a diary of his entire trip and said he encountered many exciting and memorable adventures during his trip. In Louisiana, U.S.A he was knocked off his bike by a motorist who skipped a red light. In Pakistan, he became sick from food poisoning. However, his most terrifying experience was in Istanbul, where he had to weave his bike through really crowded and bad roads (no special bike lanes here!). He also had some very fun times, meeting lots of amazing people and going through some beautiful countries.
Mark grew up in a remote farm in the Scottish Highlands and was home-schooled until he reached high school. He completed his first major solo ride at the age of fifteen, biking over 1,000 miles and raising 3,000 British Pounds for charity. Surprisingly, while he loves to bike, Skiing is his first love, and he was the captain of the Ski and Snowboard Club at Glasgow University, where he received his degree in Economics and Politics.
Mark's worldwide trek, helped raise 18,000 British Pounds towards various charities and will earn him a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records as the " Fastest to Cycle around the World".
Congratulations Mark!

2.2. Inflationary Expansion: The Magic of a Shrinking Comoving Event Horizon
Inflation doesn't make the observable universe big. The observable universe is as big as it is. What inflation does is make the region from which the Universe emerged, very small. How small? is unknown (hence the question mark in Fig. 2), but small enough to allow the points in opposite sides of the sky (A and B in Fig. 4) to be in causal contact.
The exponential expansion of inflation produces an event horizon at a constant proper distance which is equivalent to a shrinking comoving horizon. A shrinking comoving horizon is the key to the inflationary solutions of the structure, horizon and flatness problems. So let's look at these concepts carefully in Fig. 1.
The new -CDM cosmology has an event horizon and it is this cosmology that is plotted in Fig. 1 (the old standard CDM cosmology did not have an event horizon). To have an event horizon means that there will be events in the Universe that we will never be able to see no matter how long we wait. This is equivalent to the statement that the expansion of the Universe is so fast that it prevents some distant light rays, that are propagating toward us, from ever reaching us. In the top panel, one can see the rapid expansion of objects away from the central observer. As time goes by, dominates and the event horizon approaches a constant physical distance from an observer. Galaxies do not remain at constant distances in an expanding universe. Therefore distant galaxies keep leaving the horizon, i.e., with time, they move upward and outward along the lines labeled with redshift `1' or `3' or `10'. As time passes, fewer and fewer objects are left within the event horizon. The ones that are left, started out very close to the central observer. Mathematically, the R(t) in the denominator of Eq. 8 increases so fast that the integral converges. As time goes by, the lower limit t of the integral gets bigger, making the integral converge on a smaller number - hence the comoving event horizon shrinks. The middle panel shows clearly that in the future, as increasingly dominates the dynamics of the Universe, the comoving event horizon will shrink. This shrinkage is happening slowly now but during inflation it happened quickly. The shrinking comoving horizon in the middle panel of Fig. 1 is a slow and drawn out version of what happened during inflation - so we can use what is going on now to understand how inflation worked in the early universe. In the middle panel galaxies move on vertical lines upward, while the comoving event horizon shrinks. As time goes by we are able to see a smaller and smaller region of comoving space. Like using a zoom lens, or doing a PhD, we are able to see only a tiny patch of the Universe, but in amazing detail. Inflation gives us tunnel vision. The middle panel shows the narrowing of the tunnel. Galaxies move up vertically and like objects falling into black holes, from our point of view they are redshifted out of existence.
The bottom line is that accelerated expansion produces an event horizon at a given physical size and that any particular size scale, including quantum scales, expands with the Universe and quickly becomes larger than the given physical size of the event horizon.

Clay Paky's Alpha Spot HPE 1200s Added To Lighting Inventory At Madison Square Garden
Madison Square Garden, New York City's premiere indoor venue for sporting events, concerts and live entertainment, has added four Clay Paky Alpha Spot HPE 1200s to an existing complement of 24 Clay Paky Stage Zoom 1200 fixtures. Scott Humphrey's Delaware-based Light Action was the dealer of record for the sale.
Lighting designer Patrick Dierson of Artfag specified the Alpha Spot HPE 1200s. Dierson works directly with the National Hockey League's New York Rangers and the NBA's New York Knicks, who both call the Garden home, and is often called in by Garden operational personnel as a theatrical consultant. "They know what they want to happen but don't have the technical expertise to specify equipment," Dierson explains. "I bridge that gap to make sure what they need is implemented seamlessly."
The Alpha Spot HPE 1200 is the highlight of Clay Paky's Alpha range. Its extraordinary luminosity is guaranteed by the combination of a top-performance optical unit and a 1200w discharge lamp. Featuring a large, newly-designed effects section which includes 20 gobos and an animation disk, Color Mixing CMY and Linear Zoom 10-40 degrees, the Alpha Spot HPE 1200 is the quietest fixture of the range and the ideal choice for lighting designers who demand maximum results in professional lighting.
"We did a massive LED upgrade at the Garden and needed to supplement the entertainment lighting system to go along with it," reports Dierson. "We had to have something with punch — something with a lot of output to compete with the new LED boards. Since we already had some Clay Paky units and they had an excellent reputation for reliability, it was natural to look at other Clay Paky fixtures."
The Alpha Spot HPE 1200s not only provided the output Dierson was looking for but also offered a number of gobo options. Each unit comes with two rotating gobo wheels, each with six bi-directional, indexable and easily-interchangeable decorative glass and dichroic gobos with select 'gobo shake' function and morphing effects.
"A lot of teams play in the Garden, and gobos get eaten up with their logos," Dierson notes. "But you also want to have a good template on hand for theatrical purposes."
Dierson has been delighted to discover that the Alpha Spot HPE 1200s meet all of the Garden's needs for its various events. "They do the business, look really good and are very bright," he says. "And the optics are excellent, as I would expect with any Clay Paky product."
Headquartered in Seriate (Bergamo), Italy, Clay Paky SPA has a history of designing and manufacturing innovative professional show lighting. The company was founded in 1976 by entrepreneur Pasquale Quadri who anticipated the enormous impact the evolution of technology would have on the show and entertainment worlds.

nice pics Roman,are those last bunch from Chechnya?How many Russian troops are still in Chechnya??
http://www.pbase.com/igor01/chechnya&page=1 Some of these posted before...
Is very impressive the many different types of uniforms and camouflage patterns there are in the Russian Armed Forces.
Is there a logical explanation to that or is just a random thing? I mean, sometimes you can see 2 or 3 different patterns in a single pic.
If you are talking about Russia, you are talking about 11 time zones and the climate and terrain which varies from tundra and arctic snow to the sand and sun of the desert.
When choosing the camouflage the common sense plays a part. You wounldn't wear white camo to the greenland of Caucus mountains (though in the winter that would be very useful). Same goes for other climatic zones and terrain.
But how do you explain having 6 different camo sets in one unit? They serve in one climate, one time zone and one terrain.
I know in few years time all Russian units will have only couple "own" camouflage sets, it's just a matter of money and time. Looking at some pics you already see the equipement being standarised (vests, overalls, armament, camo) especially the interior ministry forces and SF guys.

Blackboard has added the Research in Motion BlackBerry to its list of supported devices for the new Blackboard Mobile platform. Mobile Central (formerly named MobilEdu) was initially optimized only for users of Apple iPhone and iPod Touch devices.
Originally developed by San Francisco-based Terriblyclever Design, a company acquired by Blackboard in July 2009, Mobile Central is branded for each institution and accessed by users who download their institution's application.
The application gives users the ability to search course catalogs and view campus maps, e-mail teachers and classmates, and receive real-time updates on course schedules, campus events, news, and sports. In addition, institutions can use Blackboard application programming interfaces to customize and personalize the interface and functionality of the program.
On the mobile front, Blackboard also offers a free application called Learn for iPhone, which specifically provides updates from a Blackboard course. The company said in an FAQ on its Web site that it will continue making that program available.
