Why we're five years overdue for a damaging solar super-storm
By Matin Durrani
The cover feature of the August issue of Physics World, which is now out in print and digital formats, looks at the Sun – and in particular, at the consequences here on Earth of a "solar super-storm". As I point out in the video above, these violent events can disturb the Earth's magnetic field – potentially inducing damaging electrical currents in power lines, knocking out satellites and disrupting telecommunications.
One particularly strong solar super-storm occured back in 1859 in what is known as the "Carrington event", so named after the English astronomer who spotted a solar flare that accompanied it. The world in the mid-19th century was technologically a relatively unsophisticated place and the consequences were pretty benign. But should a storm of similiar strength occur today, the impact could be devastating to our way of life.
The July 2014 issue of Physics World is out now
By Matin Durrani
Unless you're prepared to modify our understanding of gravity – and most physicists are not – the blunt fact is that we know almost nothing about 95% of the universe. According to our best estimates, ordinary, visible matter accounts for just 5% of everything, with 27% being dark matter and the rest dark energy.
The July issue of Physics World, which is out now in print and digital formats, examines some of the mysteries surrounding "the dark universe". As I allude to in the video above, the difficulty with dark matter is that, if it's not ordinary matter that's too dim to see, how can we possibly find it? As for dark energy, we know even less about it other than it's what is causing the expansion of the universe to accelerate and hence making certain supernovae dimmer (because they are further away) than we'd expect if the cosmos were growing uniformly in size.
Physics World 2014 Focus on Nanotechnology is out now
By Matin Durrani
One of the beauties of physics, I'm sure you'll agree, is that it stretches from the very big (cosmology) to the very small (particle physics). In fact, the great questions at the heart of those fields may well have attracted you to physics in the first place. But a lot goes on in-between these extremes, not least at the nanoscale. It might lack the glamour of research into dark energy or the Higgs boson, but nanotechnology has far more of an immediate impact on everyday life than physics at either end of the length scale.
If you want to find out about some of those applications, take a look at the latest Physics World focus issue on nanotechnology, out now in print and digital formats. It covers, for example, the work of the UK firm P2i, which has developed a "dunkable" nano-coating that can keep a mobile phone functioning after being submerged in water for up to half an hour. Could be handy next time you go swimming.
Adventures in Antarctica
By Matin Durrani
It's the depths of winter in Antarctica right now, but in the new issue of Physics World magazine, there's a chance to feast your eyes on some stunning images of scientific research in the White Continent, taken a few months ago by photojournalist Enrico Sacchetti.
Sacchetti's photographs are amazing and in the article he explains his experiences of travelling to Antarctica and taking pictures in what is one of the world's harshest environments.
"As soon as I stepped off the C-130 [plane], the alien nature of Antarctica was truly jolting…Almost completely absent of atmospheric pollution, the air was crystal clear," Sacchetti writes.
Why did a drop of pitch in Dublin go viral?
By Matin Durrani
It's always surprising to see the kinds of things that go viral – who'd have thought that a blog with amusing animal pictures would prove such a hit or that a chubby Korean pop singer would clock up nearly two billion views on YouTube?
But I doubt anyone could have predicted that a video of a drop falling from an antique funnel of pitch at a lab at Trinity College Dublin would become one of the science stories of 2013. In fact, here at Physics World we didn't even write about it at the time.
Partly to make amends, the May issue of Physics World magazine, which is now out, includes a fabulous article by Shane D Bergin, Stefan Hutzler and Denis Weaire from the lab in Dublin where the experiment is based. In the article, they explain the science behind the pitch drop, discuss the history of the experiment and reflect on the value of "slow science" to a hyper-connected, social-media world.
How can you give yourself time to think?
By Matin Durrani
If you're a busy researcher, you'll know just how precious time can be. But for many physicists, there's a growing pressure to communicate, collaborate and interact – often at the expense of having time in silence to sit and think.
It's an issue tackled in the cover story of the April issue of Physics World magazine by Felicity Mellor from Imperial College London, who runs a project called "Silences of Science". The cover of this month's issue was specially commissioned by us from artist Dave Cutler.
As Mellor puts it, current research policy – in the UK at least – emphasizes silence's opposite. "From assessing publications and rewarding collaborations, to requirements for public engagement, policy initiatives urge scientists to speak up," she writes.
Yet there is a danger, Mellor warns, that in the midst of all this enforced interaction, an important precondition for creativity in physics could be lost. "With all these demands to talk, do scientists still have the chance to think?" she wonders.
Fran Scott's four golden rules for getting kids hooked on science
By Matin Durrani
"Ever heard a child say 'Yeah, I get it!'? Well, if you do, they're lying. They're only saying those words because you're boring them and they don't want to listen any more."
That's not me telling you – it's Fran Scott, a BBC science presenter who has spent the last nine years involved in informal children's science education, most recently working for Children's BBC and BBC Learning.

Making brain-busting ideas easier to grasp
By Matin Durrani
With all the talk yesterday of evidence for inflation and signs of primoridal gravitational waves imprinted on the cosmic microwave background, many non-physicists (and probably quite a few physicists too) might have been left scratching their heads at the implications of the findings obtained by the BICEP2 experiment at the South Pole.
Unfortunately, there's no getting away from the fact that many concepts in physics are hard and that cutting-edge experiments are incredible feats of technical endeavour. We can, though, all take solace from the fact that physicists at the frontiers of research have often spent decades living and breathing their subjects, which means they know the basics of their own field far better than anyone else.
New ways to teach and learn physics
By Matin Durrani
If there's one thing that unites pretty much all of us who like physics, it's that we've all sat through physics classes at some point in our lives. We all know teachers and lecturers who've been brilliant and inspired us, but equally we've all sat through classes that have quite frankly bored us out of our pants.
In the March 2014 issue of Physics World – a PDF copy of which you can download free of charge – we offer a snapshot of just some of the many innovative ideas that exist for learning and teaching physics. It's not an exhaustive selection, but includes topics that we felt were interesting or novel.
So, download the issue to find out about the huge growth of "massive open online courses", or MOOCs, in which universities make their lectures freely available in video form on the Internet, and discover Philip Moriarty's behind-the-scenes experiences as one of the stars of the Sixty Symbols series of YouTube science videos.
Elsewhere, check out the great feature by BBC science presenter Fran Scott, who reveals her four golden rules for engaging children with science, and discover the importance of helping children develop computer-programming skills from an early age. Don't miss out either on Eugenia Etkina and Gorazd Planinšič's article on the implications for teachers of the fact that learning involves physical changes in the brain.

Physics World brings Feynman lecture to life
By Matin Durrani and Louise Mayor
Commissioned by Physics World for the March 2014 education special issue, which examines new ways to teach and learn physics, this colourful image is based on a lecture by Richard Feynman called "The Great Conservation Principles". It is one of seven Messenger Lectures that the great physicist gave at Cornell University in the US exactly 50 years ago, a video of which can be watched here or in the digital version of Physics World.
The drawing's creator is professional "science doodler" Perrin Ireland – science communications specialist at the Natural Resources Defense Council in the US – who describes herself as "a learner who needs to visualize concepts in order to understand them". For people like Ireland, thinking visually or in a story-like way helps them to recall facts and explanations, which can come in very useful when trying to learn something new.
So to find out what science doodling could bring to physics, we invited Ireland to watch Feynman's 1964 lecture and create a drawing for us – the picture above being the result. Half a century after his lecture, Feynman remains an iconic figure in physics and although we'll never know what he would have made of Ireland's doodle, our bet is he would have been amused.

Ramses' apartment is perfect for anyone who is visiting Amsterdam and who wants to have an authentic Dutch experience! The house has a very simple and clean design which I really appreciated, with everything you need.
Even though it seems a little far off from the actual Amsterdam center, we never had to worry because it is extremely accessible with trams and buses just around the corner that can bring you to the city within 15 mins! Or ,if you are up for it, you could rent a bicycle from the shop near by and make your way around Amsterdam like most locals, on the bike! ( gets some getting used to and only recommended for slightly more experienced riders) .
The apartment also has many fantastic restaurants , pubs and a supermarket near by for all your needs.. I particularly recommend the restaurant: affourtit which is just on the next street which serves amazing fusion food and mojitos!
This is a beautiful apartment ....in a calm and quiet street, just 20 mins from the centre of Amsterdam by tram, nearby the lovely Vondelpark. There are some excellent neighbourhood eateries and cafes. We stayed with our 2 young children. Everything was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Ramses was a reliable and thoughtful host. For those elderly or infirm guests, be aware there is a steep set of stairs up to the apartment....as I believe is the case in most of the beautiful old buildings in Amsterdam. What a great find this apartment was!
We spent a week-end in Ramses´ apartment and had a great time. Ramses is a very nice host and it was easy to communicate through e-mails and phone. We appreciated the location of the apartment - close to "park and ride" station; next to tram stops; close to the city centre; within walking distance from museums and with a grocery store as well as restaurants around the corner. The apartment was very clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Several Amsterdam guidebooks that Ramses has made available for guests proved most hepful. I hope to be back soon and recommend this place to everyone!
A wonderful apartment in an absolutely perfect location. Nice quiet street, right around the corner of the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam-Zuid.
A great place to get on writing like we did, and be able to go out and work/relax at one of the many coffee / lunch places or restaurants on the doorstep.
Everything we needed was there. Only downside was the less comfy 2nd bed (fold out, never as good of course).
Would absolutely recommend this apartment!
I would like to thank Ramses, we had a very nice stay in Amsterdam! Thank you for all the tips, cards and books you left us to facilitate our trip. The building and the flat are really lovely, decorated with taste, very clean and good located! It was was really easy and very fast to reach the center of the city! I recommend this flat to all the travellers who want to have a stay in Amsterdam.
Thank you for you kindness and hospitality.

I have big data table with more than 100 millions rows. It it possible to work with such table in R (merge it with other tables, group columns and so on)? All standard structures (like data.frame) are very slow for this task. Can I do it somehow without using SQL?

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center. If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I can do prep work on datasets that are 7 million rows by 100 columns, but it's tight on a machine with 32 GB. I then pare down to working sets that are smaller. You didn't mention your RAM capacity (or the width of your table), so my guess is that you will need to use a database interface. Try loading 1 million rows, then 5 million rows and see how the RAM space varies and compares to your resources.
You should also be asking whether you really need all that data under analysis. Sampling strategies may allow more efficient use of your machine.
Your comment makes me wonder if you understood. Use

It is hard to understate the importance of Neilsen numbers in Hollywood.
I don't think that means what you think it means.
Sounds like the Chicago area to me.
Except for the whole concept of a "green turn signal". They seem to be quite rare in Chicago, even on crazy 6-way intersections.
All those people that pull into the middle and wait to turn are actually breaking the law.
And even many of the anti-gridlock laws make exceptions for turning.
Indeed, pulling into the intersection and waiting for the light to turn is the only way to turn left in much of Chicago. It is explicitly allowed, and drivers in the intersection have the right of way even after opposing traffic gets a green light.
You are obviously ignorant of how the electoral college makes one's vote count MORE.
Voting is a zero-sum game. If the EC makes someone's vote count MORE, then it makes someone else's vote count LESS. What's the justification for that?

Obama administration officials have given agencies some thoughts on avoiding unnecessary regulations. A new directive from the Office of Management and Budget seeks to encourage agencies to consider the cumulative effects of new rules on agencies. Rules that each do something good can be, when added together, burdensome or conflicting, Cass Sunstein, administrator of OMB's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, wrote on the OMBlog March 20.
In a memo issued March 20, officials directed agencies to:
"It should be clear that a central goal of today's effort is to promote early consultation," Sunstein wrote. "Agencies will be reaching out to the public to promote that goal."
When thinking about a new regulation, agencies should also think broadly:
"Taken in isolation, a new rule may seem perfectly sensible, but it may overlap with existing requirements," Sunstein wrote.
On January 18, 2011, President Barack Obama ordered a government review of existing rules. Agencies are to assess costs and benefits and seek broad participation from industry, consumers, scientists and other stakeholders at each step of the regulatory process.

The only other debut title in the top ten this week was Mind Candy's Moshi Monsters: Katsuma Unleashed which crept in at number nine.
The charts are looking something like this:
- Batman: Arkham Origins
- Skylanders: Swap Force
- Pokemon X
- Pokemon Y
- Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition
- LEGO The Lord Of The Rings
- Moshi Monsters: Katsuma Unleashed
- Just Dance 2014

If nothing else, large-scale works artist Michael Heizer gets major points for persistence (and thinking big). After over 40 years of searching for the right rock, the Berkeley, California, native's dream of creating a massive installation at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is finally beginning to materialize. His monolith of choice, a monstrous 340-ton (308.44 mt), 21.6 ft (6.6 m) high behemoth, is slowly making its way to the museum where it'll eventually perch above a 456 ft (139 m) trench as the centerpiece in his upcoming work Levitated Mass.

The near concurrent rise of Kickstarter and semi-affordable 3D printing means we live in a time when it is easier than ever to be an inventor of physical things.

Hot Tempers In Hot 'Lanta, Too
Max Papis getting slapped by a driver's girlfriend after Sunday's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race wasn't the only incident of folks getting hot under the collar this weekend. There was plenty of that in Sunday night's AdvoCare 500 Sprint Cup race at Atlanta Motor Speedway as well.
On Lap 54, Paul Menard drifted up into the wall, perhaps with a little help from Denny Hamlin. Menard returned the favor on Lap 205, ramming Hamlin and stuffing him in the wall.
But the most heated disagreement was between Jeff Gordon and Carl Edwards, each of whom nearly wrecked the other by putting on a 'slide job' in the corner, drifting up from the bottom of the track in front of the other in the top groove.
After the race, the two had a heated exchange on pit road, and although Gordon did not specifically address the incidents, Edwards talked about them at length.
"We don't agree on what happened and finally he got frustrated enough with the conversation that he just walked away, which might be smart," Edwards said of Gordon. "We were racing really early and he just slides on me and I thought it was really out of character for him and I didn't understand what was going on there, so I did everything I could to not wreck us both."
That, of course, precipitated payback.
"Naturally the next time we were around each other I raced him as hard as I could, and then going down the back straightaway I thought he just ran into my door and it kind of tore up our right side," said Edwards. "He thought I ran into him, so I think it was a case where both of us were mad at each other. He wasn't very happy with our conversation, but at the end of the day I felt like he was the aggressor and didn't give me much of an opportunity to drive my race car that first time."
That said, Edwards figured Sunday night's bad blood won't carry on next week at Richmond, especially given that Gordon is desperately fighting to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup.
"Whether or not Jeff and I agree, I do believe him that he didn't mean to run into me and I hope he understands I didn't mean to run into him there," Edwards said. "The rest of it was just hard racing. I don't think we'll see it any other way after tomorrow, but right now that was pretty frustrating so we'll see."

On Monday we got a sneak peek of Katy Perry's upcoming 3D film Part of Me with a teaser trailer. Today the California Gurls singer has released the full trailer for the biopic and isn't leaving any subject untouched.
In the trailer we hear Katy talking about her religious upbringing, a period of depression in her youth, and the disintegration of her marriage to comedian Russell Brand. The film will also focus heavily on Katy's years as a successful pop artist, including her world wide tours and record breaking disk Teenage Dream.
The 3D film is slated for release sometime this summer. I'm excited to see how well Part of Me can rival Justin Bieber's hugely successful 3D documentary Never Say Never at the box office.

Well, my take on it is this:
Winning the fight does not necessarily mean killing your opponent, and Connor McLeod is not immune to pain. Musashi could easily lay him open (not fatally, as it would be to a normal man, but fight-winning anyhow.
Also, McLeod may have centuries of training, but he mostly trains to deliver and block decapitation shots.

Is this a form of Dracaena?
LaunieApril 2, 2014
I need help identifying my house plant please. I purchased it as a tiny little starter pot from a grocery store, and it is now about 30" tall! I have tried to research it, and it seems similar to a red-edged dracaena, but not exactly the same as they are pictured. I have had to repot this plant to a bigger pot 3 times as it just keeps outgrowing it's pot! It tends to "lean" towards the light, so I have to rotate it occasionally to make it grow sort of strait. It seems to like a more dry soil, and moderate light. Any help is so appreciated! Thanks! (I purchased it in Arizona, but now it lives in the front east-facing room of my house in Virginia and gets in-direct light)

John Page Classic, a new guitar brand, announces the Ashburn, its initial production model.
The Guitar Drum gives players an elevated pad for bass sounds or can serve as a scratch plate.
To fingerpickers in the know, it would be a sin to cite superpickers like Tommy Emmanuel, Lenny Breau, Chet Atkins and Merle Travis without including the name Doyle Dykes.
Guild has introduced the Guild Doyle Dykes Signature Model in honor of fingerstyle virtuoso Doyle Dykes. The guitar is the result of an extensive collaboration between Dykes, luthier Ren Ferguson and the team at Guild's New Hartford, Connecticut, factory.

Erik Qualman | March 30, 2011 | Comments
What are your company slogans really saying around the world?
With advances in technology and social media, word of mouth has truly become "world of mouth." Many companies centralize their global Facebook and Twitter efforts. This has huge advantages, but it's also imperative to have involvement at the local level; from people who truly understand the market nuances and language. We live in a global economy and so it's imperative that we understand our world. Below are 13 (an unlucky number in some countries) examples of marketing translations gone wrong:

I want to change my status bar just like lasy's themes (new orange theme with a window effect)
I'm new to android so i searched how to mod or theme my device , i found metamorph included a very helpfull guide , also a site posted in other thread that cooks ur framework-res and provides a massive selection of system icons battery styles , fonts and status bars, but unlucky i don't a pc to make it work and seems i can't upload my framework file from my device.
My questions are : can i change - design my status bar via my device and without the use of a computer? : can i also change my system icons according my first question?
Lasy has made superb flashable zips for LR845 ROM that they also work on Mr.edition and V8 ROM's, maybe someone with the knowledge could create flashable themes for TCT RLS3? Or even mod lasy's themes to work on TCT RLS3 ROM? (Just a thought).
If anyone have a suggestion related my question - request it will be really helpfull.
My device is V845 (huawei 8100model with 8120board)
ROM : TCT _ RLS3 with oc kernel 710mhz (from kallt _ kaffe )
Thanks deeply for reading this.

Please Note: WD-40 (filled with pressure to work as spray) is available in all hardware stores. And not expensive at all.
I have a large size of hobby workshop and I have been dabbling with all sorts of repairs and designing contraptions for the past 30 years almost, including fabrication of our caravan KINGCOBRA . I found WD-40 as one of the most useful and wonder product for industrial as well domestic use. I always keep a bottle of WD-40 handy, you will know the logic behind this once you read the usefulness of it.
The product began from a search for a rust preventative solvent and degreaser to protect missile parts. WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a "water displacement" compound.
They were successful with the fortieth formulation, thus WD-40.
Here are some of the uses:
1) Protects silver from tarnishing.
2) Removes road tar and grime from cars.
3) Cleans and lubricates guitar strings.
4) Gives floors that 'just-waxed' sheen without making it slippery.
5) Keeps flies off cows.
6) Restores and cleans chalkboards.
7) Removes lipstick stains.
8) Loosens stubborn zippers.
9) Untangles jewelry chains.
10) Removes stains from stainless steel sinks.
11) Removes dirt and grime from the barbecue grill.
12) Keeps ceramic/terra cotta garden pots from oxidizing.
13) Removes tomato stains from clothing.
14) Keeps glass shower doors free of water spots
15) Camouflages scratches in ceramic and marble floo rs.
16) Keeps scissors working smoothly.
17) Lubricates noisy door hinges on vehicles and doors in homes.
18) It removes black scuff marks from the kitchen floor! Use WD-40 for those nasty tar and scuff marks on flooring. It doesn't seem to harm the finish and you won't have to scrub nearly as hard to get them off. Just remember to open some windows if you have a lot of marks.
19) Bug guts will eat away the finish on your car if not removed quickly! Use WD-40!
20) Gives a children's play gym slide a shine for a super fast slide.
21) Lubricates gear shift and mower deck lever for ease of handling on riding mowers.
22) Rids kids rocking chairs and swings of squeaky noises
23) Lubricates tracks in sticking home windows and makes them easier to open
24) Spraying an umbrella stem makes it easier to open and close.
25) Restores and cleans padde d leather dashboards in vehicles, as well as vinyl bumpers.
26) Restores and cleans roof racks on vehicles.
27) Lubricates and stops squeaks in electric fans.
28) Lubricates wheel sprockets on tricycles, wagons, and bicycles for easy handling.
29) Lubricates fan belts on washers and dryers and keeps them running smoothly.
30) Keeps rust from forming on saws and saw blades, and other tools.
31) Removes splattered grease on stove.
32) Keeps bathroom mirror from fogging.
33) Lubricates prosthetic limbs.
34) Keeps pigeons off the balcony (they hate the smell).
35) Removes all traces of duct tape.
36) Folks even spray it on their arms, hands, and knees to relieve arthritis pain.
37) Florida's favorite use is: "cleans and removes love bugs from grills and bumpers."
38) The favorite use in the state of New York "WD-40 protects the Statue of Liberty from the elements.
39) WD-40 attracts fish. Spray a LITTLE on live bait or lures and you will be catching the big one in no time. Also, it's a lot cheaper than the chemical attractants that are made for just that purpose. Keep in mind though, using some chemical laced baits or lures for fishing are not allowed in some states.
40) Use it for fire ant bites. It takes the sting away immediately and stops the itch.
41) WD-40 is great for removing crayon from walls. Spray on the mark and wipe with a clean rag.
42) Also, if you've discovered that your teenage daughter has washed and dried a tube of lipstick with a load of laundry, saturate the lipstick spots with WD-40 and re-wash. Presto! Lipstick is gone!
43) If you sprayed WD-40 on the distributor cap, it would displace the moisture an d allow the car to start.
P.S. AND GUESS WHAT! The basic ingredient OF WD-40 is FISH OIL!

whirlpool/Jenn air telescoping downdraft in reverse
Thanks in advance for sharing your experience and expertise. Our kitchen layout requires a telescoping downdraft in our island behind our electric cooktop. In order to maximize the space in the cabinet under the cooktop, I am looking at buying a whirlpool or jenn air downdraft. They are the only brands that claim to be able to be installed with the motor in the reverse position. Has anyone successfully installed their downdraft this way? Any lessons learned?
This is for an existing kitchen island. We have 18 foot vaulted ceilings so an overhead hood is not an option unless we relocated the cooktop. That would involve changing the floor plan and we aren't prepared for that. We rarely have the need for exhaust but I want one installed for the once a month occasion when opening windows and skylights isn't possible.

merci d'avance
The villa is in a great location in Seminyak, close to the beach and a short stroll away from many shops and very good eateries. The rooms and bathrooms were very large and pool was great to relax in after a day strolling around town. It is also a very quiet and just a 2min walk from Potato Head (one of the great spots to grab a drink around sunset time). Our hosts Laura and Edwin were always ready to help with any of our requests, including tips on where to go and organising scooters for us. We really enjoyed our stay.
The place was amazing, it was exactly how it looked in the pictures. The location was excellent and easy walking to Seminyak Square, and many many good eateries. The hotel around the villa was closed during our stay, so we didn't have access to the infinity pool in the pictures, but the villa pool was very nice. I would definitely recommend staying here, we will certainly come back! We were made to feel very welcome by our host, Laura.
Absolutely gorgeous villa. Secure, private and quiet but close to lots of activity. We would definitely stay here again.
A few of my girlfriends and I stayed at Muriel's villa for 4 nights.
The villa looks just like the pictures, was clean, safe and very well located. Laura made certain we were well cared for and helped us organize a day of surfing, massages at the villa as well as a Balinese cook who came to the villa and prepared an authentic meal for a very good price. Although it is located in a busy area, once you are on the villa grounds it is quiet and serene. We all look forward to going back to Bali and the villa soon.
I would love to write a good review for this but aside from its location, I find it really tough to say that we've enjoyed our stay.
We arrived only to find out that the villa was sitting in the compounds of a resort which had already been sold and was left on a standstill for about more than a week ago. As you can imagine with an abandoned compound, we walked right into a massive mosquito/bug infested "paradise". When we booked this listing, it stated 3 bedrooms for 6 people, however, again, only upon arrival did we find out that half of one room was closed off. This immediately emitted an unsettling vibe. Power outages happened daily, more so at night. But fortunately groundskeeper Edwin was always never to far away to help us get the lights back on before we all got eaten alive by bugs.
There's certainly enough time to send a notification email/message of some sort to let us know about the closed resort as well as the silently sealed off bedroom. To find out the way we did, it doesn't feel very forthright.
The listing should have been more accurate. At best, it should responsibly be shut down for the necessary refurbishment it needs, mosquito/bug control in check and at worst, have a proper description of its current state.
As you can see on the other review of nathalie,just after you she really enjoy the house,we need all feeling to make this world!!!
We are always surprise that peoples doesn't know there is muskitos in bali at the rain season,we are not able to do anything for this.
For the resort ,the are renovating the furniture of the rooms,it's not noisy,and we also not control the decision of our neighbour,we didn't rent a room in an hotel but a private villa.
As you can see on the other review of nathalie,just after you she really enjoy the house,we need all feeling to make this world!!!
Villa was exactly what we were looking for. It is tastefully decorated with lovely sculptures. Its location is ideal, close to Patato Head, shops and restaurants in Seminyak. Bedrooms are large and comfortable, beautiful little garden with a lovely pool and a huge open space living-dining kitchen.
Laura was very kind and helpful.
Ich habe 4 Wochen in der Villa Manggis verbracht und habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Lage ist sehr gut, ein paar Schritte vor die Türe und man hat eine unglaublich Auswahl an tollen Restaurants und Boutiquen.
Das Haus selbst hübsch und hat einen wunderbaren Garten. Edwin, der Hausboy ist ein angenehmer und symphytischer junger Mann.
Lage: sehr gut, wenn man gerne Trubel vor der Türe hat. Man braucht kein Auto oder Mofa. Hat mir sehr gut gefallen!
Haus: hübsch, besonders der Garten. Teilweise ist der Zustand nicht mehr der beste oder zeitgemäss. 4 Personen können sehr gut hier wohnen. Leider hat es nur in einem Schlafzimmer ein Netz über dem Bett. Der Hausboy versucht sein bestes, braucht aber Anweisung - das klappt aber sehr gut. Er bemüht sich sehr.
Es hat eine junge Frau, Laura die jederzeit erreichbar ist und sich sehr rasch um Anliegen kümmert. Danke Laura, es hat alles gut geklappt!

weird houseplant
someone has given me the wierdest houseplant i ever seen. please help with identification. the link tinypic shows a photo from a friends phone of me holding the plant
Here is a link that might be useful: tinypic
Hi teengardener,
It looks to me very like an Aspidistra, although the bit lying over your arm confuses me a bit, because I thought it might be a flowering shoot. Aspidistras flower on the soil under the plant and usually are a very muddy purple colour, not what you could call pretty.
I saw this last night & wondered about it myself. Tho' the pic is largely in shadow, take a look at the lower part of those stalks, fattened stalks did look to me like those thickened lower parts of their stalks which seem to act rather like water storage organs.
I missed it on the leaves, but did see it on the stems.
Fun plants, I have several of them (I started from leaves). They're almost indestructable except to overwatering.
Tho' somewhat unusual looking they are in the Aroid family & have blooms that look similar to those of Spathyphyllum (Peace Lily).
