It happened again, I'm sitting on my porch enjoying a good morning cup of coffee and I hear something of in the distance. Cracking, crunching, hitting and a diesel engine. I must go record this I thought to myself so I ran inside, grabbed my gear and drove up the street a bit to where the house I recorded glass breaking in is being ripped apart by a logging claw. I was there in less than five minutes but the ...More →
As I am making the Ultimate Mud SFX Library I'm always trying to come up with new ways to create unique mud sounds. So far I've used my feet, shovels, my hands, buckets and logs. I decided one day last week to go bigger and better (hopefully) so it was time to get the JD tractor going and see if I could dump some mud.
It had just rained heavily for 3 days straight and my mud bog had filled back ...More →

Here is another one of my blog posts on a Sunday afternoon even though I have more pressing things to do. This one is about my experience recording cars. I am by no means an expert in recording any type of vehicle. There are people way more skilled and experienced than I am but I'm fascinated by the sound of engines, pass by's and the general motion of anything. I have never recorded from the perspective of "on the car" ...More →
Since I had way more important things to do this Sunday morning I decided to set up the rig and record some large logs being dropped. These logs were on the lower part of the property and I have to eventually move them up closer to the barn so I can cut them to length, split and stack them in the shed. But, before that could happen they needed to be recorded, I only want to move them once.
I set ...More →
For a few years now I have been slowly building up a collection of wood based sound effects. I have recorded almost everything I could from gigantic trees falling and rotten stump rips to small branches breaking.
Earlier this year I found a busted up tree fort some kids must have built many years ago in the woods behind my house. A nearby dead tree had fallen right through the structure and split it in half and left all the ...More →

Ahhhh… water, the essence of life. It also makes some great sounds when you throw large objects and generally mess around in it.
Near the mountain rock quarry is a fairly large pond. Between rockslide recording sessions I would venture over to this pond and see what I could record. Large stones were nearby so I started with tossing them into the pond. I got some great big splashes with large bubbling as the rock sunk to the bottom. I also ...More →

30 Jun 2012 04:49 GMT | Science & Technology, Europe, France, Germany
France will halt this weekend the Minitel service, a home-grown precursor of internet services like on-line banking, travel reservations and even sex chats.
By its peak in the late 1990s, some 25 million people in France were using Minitel's 26,000 services, ranging from checking the weather to buying clothes and booking train tickets.
But its creator, France Telecom, was unable to sell the clunky system overseas.
"With the Minitel, we invented a lot of today's technology," said Jean-Paul Maury, former director of the Minitel project at France Telecom.
"A terminal accessing a service located at the end of the world that was born with the Minitel: by that I mean the Internet and all online networks."
Aficionados are preparing to mourn the passing of the network, ironically enough, on the Internet. On social networking site Facebook, groups have sprung up to prolong its memory, proclaiming: "No to the end of the Minitel".
Was cutting edge
For many French, the Minitel is a reminder of a time when their country was at the cutting edge of modernity.
Under Socialist President Francois Mitterrand, the France of the 1980s led the world with its bold modern architecture - like the glass pyramid outside Paris' Louvre museum - its groundbreaking TGV high-speed train, and supersonic Concorde passenger plane.
Originally designed by France Telecom as an online directory to save paper, the Minitel was a drab, box-like terminal with a keyboard that used ordinary telephone lines to transmit information.
The technology it used, videotex, was nothing new, Britain already had Ceefax, the US NAPLPS, and Germany was preparing to launch its Bildschirmtext.
Its unique feature was the wealth of services it inspired, accessible via the dial-up code 3615. The most famous of these was "Minitel Rose", or "pink Minitel", a plethora of sex chats that encouraged some users to run up astronomical phone bills.
The government played a role in championing the technology, financing the distribution of millions of free terminals to ensure widespread pick-up. But the Minitel never caught on outside the country.
"People were amazed and kept coming to see how it worked. But you had to be able to develop the low-cost terminals and then construct all the services and other countries didn't want to make the effort," Maury said.
While the Internet protocol was standardised in 1982, introducing the concept of a world-wide network of computers, it was not until the mid-1990s that restrictions on commercial traffic were lifted.
Since then the rapid growth of Internet services has made Minitel obsolete but many in France still use the plastic boxes.
France Telecom estimates 670,000 terminals are in circulation, mostly used by farmers to exchange information on cattle and by doctors to transmit patient details to the national health service.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
Perched deep in the woods near apple orchards, the Biltmore Estate, and Lake Lure, this sunny log cabin features 4 bedrooms (2 queen upstairs, 1 queen and 1 bunk set downstairs), 3 baths, upstairs and downstairs living areas with televisions, a well-stocked kitchen, and a ping-pong table in the garage. It's a great set-up for families with kids.
Enjoy the rocking chairs on the covered back deck as you look out over a wooded hill with winter views. The covered front porch supplies a picnic table and charcoal grill for outdoor eating. Extensive hiking is available at the top of Rich Mountain, a short climb up the hill behind the house. There's lots of room for dogs to roam.
Spend your afternoons tubing on the Green River, fishing in nearby trout streams, apple-picking in conveniently located orchards, climbing Chimney Rock, exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway, visiting the Biltmore Estate, or enjoying antique-hunting and dining in Asheville and Hendersonville. Our central location puts you within 25 minutes of all these activities.
This cabin is owned by two families who live and work in Charleston, SC. We have children that are very close in age, and we all love to go up to the cabin together when we get a chance. The set-up is great for families with children. The kids have their own bedrooms and living area downstairs where they can hang out and leave the grown-ups undisturbed in the evenings. We spend our time at the cabin hiking, holding ping-pong tournaments, sipping wine on the back deck, grilling out, and of course, taking advantage of river tubing, fishing, shopping, etc. in nearby Hendersonville and Asheville.
Joe Kelly purchased this cabin in 2005
If you want a real get-away, a place that is not in a neighborhood or housing development, our cabin may be for you. It has a very secluded feel and is surrounded by woods and hiking opportunities. After a short hike up the hill behind the house, you will find miles and miles of old logging roads to explore on Rich Mountain and the surrounding hills. Yet, at the same time, we're a short, 13-minute drive away from numerous stores and restaurants in Hendersonville.
We love the log cabin feel of the place--the all-wood walls and ceilings in the upstairs living room, dining room, kitchen, and bedrooms especially. The cabin is extremely comfortable--laid-back and not fussy.
We really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful surroundings, very peaceful. Very clean home. Highly recommend this property. We drove a Hyundai Sonata, it made it but wasn't easy. The drive up the mountain is a little rough, grateful we didn't have any bad weather. Owner has great communication with renters. Very please with everything
We just got home from an amazing vacation at this cabin. We have rented several homes through Home Away, and this home was by far the cleanest one. We had 3 families stay at this cabin this weekend, and we had a great time. It is very kid and adult friendly. The front porch has amazing views! Be prepared for a fun drive up and down the mountain. Downtown Hendersonville is close by. The Blue Ridge Parkway way and Asheville are close too.
My family and I rented the cabin for my son's wedding in nearby Fletcher. The cabin was very comfortable and well-stocked. I must admit the ride up the mountain scared me at first but we got use to it as we went back and forth from the wedding venue in Fletcher. The road is not paved but we maneuvered it very well! Owner Joe Kelly was very helpful and answered any questions I had about his cabin. We would definitely stay here again!
My family and I stayed at Joe's cabin for a weekend while in town for a wedding. The dirt road leading to the house is a bit of an adventure, but the home itself is wonderful. There were 8 of us, including two toddlers, and everyone was able to enjoy the space and surrounding area. There were even lots of fun toys for the kids, and the adults enjoyed sipping wine in the rocking chairs on the porch. Joe provided great directions and helpful info about the house and town. We will definitely come back if we're in the area again!
The Ping pong table was in the garage which was a little too close to the walls to play but we didn't mind we were outside enjoying nature most of the time.
This home is very spacious and in a very nice location. Secluded yet close enough to groceries, downtown Hendersonville and Asheville. We found everything we needed there and then some. There are nice views from the front porch, large supply of board games, TVs, ping pong table, washer and dryer, full kitchen, etc. etc. etc. The batrooms although small were clean and everything worked perfectly. There is a large grill outside which we used every night, but bring charcoal. This is a great place to come with large families, weekend or a few weeks get a way. Overall I would say it's not a fancy place, so if you are looking for luxurious, this is not it...it is however, extremely comfotable which is what we were looking for and we would defenetely stay here again.

Those of us at Harper's appreciate rudeness no matter who is in charge. See this wonderful essay by Mark Slouka from June 2008:
[S]urely one could argue that the American democratic experiment was at least in part an attempt to challenge this "reality," to establish a political and legal culture from which would emerge, organically, a new sensibility: independent, unburdened by the protocols of class, skeptical of inherited truths. Willing to be disobedient. To moon the lord.
Alas, if that was the plan, it went sideways a long time ago. In today's America, the majority is nothing if not impressed by power and fame (its legitimacy is irrelevant), nothing if not obedient. As for mooning the lord, the ass to the glass these days is more likely to be the lord's, and our own posture toward it, well, something short of heroic.

Infection with hepatitis B and C virus in Europe: a systematic review of prevalence and cost-effectiveness of screening
1 Centre for Infectious Disease Control, National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), PO Box 1, Bilthoven, 3720 BA, The Netherlands

4 European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA), Cais do Sodré, Lisbon, 1249-289, Portugal
BMC Infectious Diseases 2013, 13:181 doi:10.1186/1471-2334-13-181Published: 18 April 2013
Treatment for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is improving but not benefiting individuals unaware to be infected. To inform screening policies we assessed (1) the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and anti-hepatitis C virus antibody (anti-HCV-Ab) prevalence for 34 European countries; and (2) the cost-effectiveness of screening for chronic HBV and HCV infection.
We searched peer-reviewed literature for data on HBsAg and anti-HCV-Ab prevalence and cost-effectiveness of screening of the general population and five subgroups, and used data for people who inject drugs (PWID) and blood donors from two European organizations. Of 1759 and 468 papers found in the prevalence and cost-effectiveness searches respectively, we included 124 and 29 papers after assessing their quality. We used decision rules to calculate weighted prevalence estimates by country.
The HBsAg and anti-HCV-Ab prevalence in the general population ranged from 0.1%-5.6% and 0.4%-5.2% respectively, by country. For PWID, men who have sex with men and migrants, the prevalence of HBsAg and anti-HCV-Ab was higher than the prevalence in the general population in all but 3 countries. There is evidence that HCV screening of PWID and HBsAg screening of pregnant women and migrants is cost-effective.
The prevalence of chronic HBV and HCV infection varies widely between European countries. Anti-HCV-Ab screening of PWID and HBsAg screening of pregnant women and migrants have European public health priority. Cost-effectiveness analyses may need to take effect of antiviral treatment on preventing HBV and HCV transmission into account.

Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh warned on Friday that Air India would hire new pilots if the Indian Pilots Guild (IPG) did not end its strike soon.
At a meeting with five pilots owing allegiance to the IPG, Mr. Singh made it clear that the strike, if it continued, was likely to impact the payment of wage arrears to all employees by June, as promised by the government. "We can think of hiring new pilots," he said. Air India Chairman and Managing Director Rohit Nandan joined the 90-minute meeting at the fag end.
The IPG, which has been at loggerheads with the management over its decision to let the erstwhile Indian Airlines pilots undergo training to fly Boeing 787 Dreamliner, is holding consultations with legal experts to decide on its course of action. It has been insisting on the reinstatement of 101 dismissed pilots and a solution to issues relating to their career growth.
Officials said Mr. Singh told the pilots there would be no victimisation, if they resumed duty without any further delay. He reiterated the government's stand that the strike was illegal and said it caused passengers untold miseries and cost Air India much.
Mr. Singh said the pilots started the strike without notifying the management and reported sick when they were not. The strike has so far cost Air India Rs. 300 crore and forced it to operate 38 international flights instead of the 45 scheduled services. The carrier has said the contingency plan will be in force till June 30.

First introduced in 1897 by Peter Henderson & Company. Black Valentine Beans are cold tolerant, prolific and very dependable. Shiny black seed in 6-inch pods. A great dual purpose variety; bush habit, snap or dry. (50-55 days)
Each packet contains approximately 50 seeds.
Planting and Harvesting Tips:
Plant directly into rich, fast draining soil in spring after the soil has warmed. Sow 1 inch deep and 2-4 inches apart in rows 18-24 inches apart. Soaking 1-2 hours prior to planting will speed germination. Thin when seedlings emerge so that bush varieties are 5 to 6 inches apart; pole varieties 6 to 8 inches apart.
Pick often to keep plants productive; when harvesting immature pods you encourage new blossoms to form. Look for firm, sizable pods and pinch off with your thumbnail and fingers.

The Gaming Niche
by Josh Lovison on Nov 28, 12:00 AM
Congratulations to "The Guild" and creator Felicia Day. The online mini-series, which premiered its first season last year to much acclaim and over nine million views, has worked out a very interesting deal with Microsoft for the second season. The show creators will retain rights to the content and revenue for non-game related channels, but Microsoft gets an early premiere of the content and rights to sell advertising with an unspecified revenue split throughout the initial series run.

Sony Gets Overzealous Moderating Gaming UGC
by Shankar Gupta on Nov 21, 3:01 PM
"LittleBigPlanet," which was slated to be one of Sony's biggest exclusive releases this year, has been causing Sony no end of headaches, first with a launch delay to apply a patch removing lyrics from the Koran from the game's musical track, and most recently with a community blowup surrounding the moderation of user-created content. Early in the game's lifecycle, it seems that Sony and Media Molecule, the game developer, were a bit overzealous when it came to taking down user-designed levels for age-inappropriate content and copyright infringement.

Reality Check
by Josh Lovison on Nov 14, 11:30 AM
This past week an article from ClickZ got some love for its extreme take on the state of the industry. Which was of course that consoles are going to die to the masses of newer, younger casual games. Of course, the author of the ClickZ article didn't actually qualify any of his opinions with numbers. I mean, it's obvious that casual games are going to eat consoles alive, right?

'Winter's Light' On Canvas: Taunton Lake Through An Artist's EyeSaturday, March 15, 2014
Muted browns and wistful pale blues stretched across artist Patricia Barkman's canvas. Her oils and brush strokes caught fading sunlight and shadows lengthening across Taunton Lake, reaching for the far shore where bare trees stood waiting for spring. The scene also captured the early March sky mirrored on the lake. Describing the shadows and colors, she said, "It's winter light."

text: |Universally, mothers tend to feel they are not good enough at parenting and fear they are harming their children by not being perfect. In Mommy Grace: Erasing Mommy Guilt, Sheila Schuller Coleman offers overwhelmed moms short but emotive stories of authentic motherhood from her own and others' experiences-foibles and all-and offers comfort by showing how God makes up for human weakness with His own strength. Because Sheila shares lessons learned the hard way by real moms rather than giving difficult instructions for better mothering, readers will leave the book feeling encouraged rather than lectured. For every mom who feels she's not quite up to the colossal job of parenting, MOMMY GRACE is full of hope and compassion.

How would you transfrom these items?
I bought these plastic 60's wall decor pieces at a garage sale. They're those thingies that are painted gold and they're usually candle sconces. Know what I'm talking about? Very tacky looking now! LOL!
Does anyone have any ideas how to paint them to bring them up to date? They have scrolling designs on them thay are kinda cool looking.
Suggestions appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Or, go over to ebay in Home and Garden and do a search for shabby chic wall sconces, or "shabby chic wall" and see what it brings up. SC's very hot right now and I've seen what I think you're talking abt lots of times on there. Mostly painted white, some pt wiped off w/slight bit of gold showing thru, can be crackled, sanded, whatever, to get the shabby part of the lk, often times w/toled roses. Actually pretty cool. I've seen it in frames, sconces, iron work, furniture, tissue box tops, wastebkts, etc. Now, b4 you go over there, have you got all day?? lol

95 of 97 people found the following review helpful
This review is from: Rule of St. Benedict in English (RB1980) (Paperback)
The Rule of St. Benedict is a fairly short book, pocket-sized, and only 96 pages long. It is a good example of the statement, 'good things come in small packages'. Father Timothy Fry, OSB (which stands for 'Order of St. Benedict', and is used by monastics and oblates) wrote a brief preface to the book, in which he explains that the rule is a guide of life, but not 'a rigid, brutal structure imposed legalistically'. Benedict was fully aware of human frailty, as true 1500 years ago as it is today. This frailty requires much to be done to give the person strength, and so Benedict's Rule is designed for an ever-increasing self-discipline which is supported by community worship and practice.
Benedict's Rule for life includes worship, work, study, prayer, and relaxation. Benedict's Rule requires community -- even for those who become hermits or solitaries, there is a link to the community through worship and through the Rule. No one is alone. This is an important part of the relationship of God to the world, so it is an integral part of the Rule.
Benedict's Rule was set out first in a world that was torn with warfare, economic and political upheaval, and a generally harsh physical environment. This Rule was set out to bring order to a general chaos in which people lived. This is still true today, and men and women all over the world use Benedict's 'little rule for beginners' as a basic structure for their lives.
The first word of the rule is Listen. This is perhaps the best advice for anyone looking for any guidance or rule of life. While Benedict's Rule is decidedly Christocentric and hierarchical (though not as hierarchical as much popular ideas about monastic practice would have one think), it nonetheless can give value to any reader who is looking to construct a practice for oneself.
Benedict's establishment of a monastery was in fact the establishment of a school for spirituality. In his prologue to the Rule, Benedict even states this as his intention. 'In drawing up its regulations, we hope to set down nothing harsh, nothing burdensome.' He sets forth in this brief rule a guide to individual life within community that will bring one ever closer to the divine.
Benedict explores the issues of charity, personality, integrity, and spirituality in all of his rules. From the clothing to the prayer cycle to the reception of guests, all have a purpose that fits into a larger whole, and all have positive charges and negative warnings. Benedict is especially mindful of the sin of pride, be it pride of possession, pride of person, pride of place -- he strives for equality in the community (as a recognition that all are equal before God).
Hundreds of thousands of pages have been written over the last millenium and a half on the Rule of St. Benedict, but it all comes down to this brief collection, which can be read easily in an hour, yet takes a lifetime (or perhaps more!) to master.
Open it for yourself to see what riches it may hold for you.

I promise to read
Each day and each night.
I know it's the key
To growing up right.
I'll read to myself,
I'll read to a crowd.
It makes no difference
If silent or loud.
I'll read at my desk,
At home and at school,
On my bean bag or bed,
By the fire or pool.
Each book that I read
Puts smarts in my head,
'Cause brains grow more thoughts
The more they are fed.
So I take this oath
To make reading my way
Of feeding my brain

Important - Please Read-
DoDEA, in alignment with the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children, is committed to easing the challenges of military families moving between duty stations. For families transitioning to a new duty station and enrolling in DoDEA schools for the first time, there is now a provision allowing a 30-calendar day grace period for parents/students to meet immunization requirements after school enrollment. The intent of this provision is to avoid any interruption in the transferring student's education. The health and the welfare of all students is a top priority for DoDEA. The Department of Defense sets immunization requirements for DoDEA schools based on recommendations from the Center of Disease Control. Compliance with immunization requirements greatly reduces the risk of public health issues. School nurses and local military medical treatment facilities stand ready to assist parents in meeting these requirements promptly.

LAWRENCEVILLE - It was just another half-hour commute to Lawrenceville for teacher Christie Moon. That is, until a 250-pound black bear ran in front of her car, causing her to slam on her brakes. She hit it anyway.The black bear was likely the same one seen Sunday in a Loganville neighborhood. Residents saw it eating from bird feeders in the Richmond Place residential loop. Moon hit him on Callie Still Road in Lawrenceville, only a few miles from where he was last reportedly seen near Ozora Road. Moon was driving from her home in Monroe to her job at the Hooper Renwick Center in Lawrenceville. It was a drive she had done hundreds of times in her three years there as a special education teacher. This particular trip was certainly the most dramatic. "I think I was in shock," Moon said. "There's a bear, and I'm thinking, 'No one's going to believe me.' I'm on my way to work, and I hit a bear." The impact did more damage to Moon's Honda Civic than it did the bear. Her bumper came off, its rim was bent and the front badly damaged. Meanwhile, the bear kept running and got away. Moon hit his back leg but didn't think the impact hurt him too badly. A woman in an SUV also almost hit the bear as she was driving in the opposite direction. She swerved when she saw it, but Moon wasn't so lucky. The other driver stayed as a witness as Moon called the police and her father to tell them what happened. It wasn't until seconds before she saw the bear that Moon realized what it was. At first, she thought it was just a huge dog. When she realized what it was, she wondered if anyone would believe her. Even the police dispatcher asked her repeatedly if she was sure it was a bear and not a deer. "I think my first reaction was: 'I think everyone is going to think I'm crazy,'" Moon said. After the incident, Moon planned to go home to change out of her muddy clothes and then return to school. But her car battery died after she got home - a casualty of the collision. She is still trying to figure out what she should tell her students when she returns to school. Already, she has gotten many phone calls from bemused co-workers wondering what happened. The bear is still at large, said to Don McGowan, state biologist for the Division of Wildlife Resources. He drove up and down Callie Still Road and surrounding areas hoping to find signs of the bear. He said the injury will not change the way the department deals with the investigation, which is to let the animal return to the more wooded areas. "It really just depends on how injured it was I guess," McGowan said. "It could recover. It may have just been stunned. It could be fine now - or it could be a serious injury, and it could just die." McGowan said black bears are rarely aggressive to humans but advised that people who see bears keep their distance. Residents of the area should also avoid leaving food and garbage outside. Some local residents, such as Susan Lancaster, are mostly worried about their pets. She has two dogs and a cat. And while the dogs tend to stay indoors, the cat likes to go in and out of the house. "I certainly don't want to have to wrestle a bear, but if it comes down to my pets and the bear, he and I are going to have a problem," Lancaster joked. "As for my husband - he is on his own."

What's New
We changed game dynamics. Now the game is faster. Also the 2-letters word are permitted.
Sherlock Free
Sherlock is a computerized version of logic puzzles, where you're presented with a series of clues that help you to determine the exact locations of all of the images on the playing board. The puzzles are all 4x4, 5x5 or 6x6. Each row of the playing board contains images of the same type (faces, houses, numbers, fruit, street signs, letters, etc). The game scrambles the locations of the items in each row (without showing you their locations) and then presents to you a set of graphical clues that describe the positional relationships of different images. You use the clues to deduce where things can't be (and where they HAVE to be) until you know where all of the images are located.
Sherlock Free contains 10 puzzles in each size for 30 puzzles total. The puzzles in the Free, Pro, Ultra, and Zen versions of the game are all unique, the four versions of the game share NO common puzzles.

GeForce GTS 450 review roundup -
'Extra Extra Read all about it', come on people, learn about the new GeForce GTS 450, we've got ASUS, eVGA, ECS, MSI, NVIDIA, Palit, Sparkle, KFA2 (Galaxy), Inno3D and Gigabyte covered all in this exclusive article.
Hey you know, I was checking up some information on the release of the budget oriented GeForce GTS 450 today. A new lower level mid-range product that is targeted against the Radeon HD 5750. Performance and features wise pretty much the very same products except for PhysX and 3D Surround vision. And while comparing specifications I realized how long it actually has taken NVIDIA to release the mid-range DX11 class products. Get this, our first R5770/5750 reviews date from October 2009 -- yeah, last year.
So, 11 months after the competition released their DX11 class mid-range products, NVIDIA finally inserts a SKU into the market with roughly the same performance. Man, that's arriving late to the market alright.
Either way, at roughly 120 EUR, NVIDIA today releases the GeForce GTS 450. A cute mid-range graphics card armed with DirectX 11 compatibility that comes with one full gigabyte of graphics memory. The product is targeted at gamers with a set budget in mind. Decent performance at a reasonable price. NVIDIA themselves find this card ideal for gamers who play their games with a monitor up-to a resolution of roughly 1600x1200, and that's a fair suggestion in this price range. Competition wise, NVIDIA feels the Radeon HD 5750 is the card to beat.
The card, as rumored for weeks, indeed comes with 192 shader processors, 1 GB of quad data rate GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit wide interface. A card that is clocked at 783/1566/900 MHz (core/shader/memory) with a maximum power draw of a bright light bulb, 106W.
Below, an overview of the products tested today. We'll have a look at reference performance, but obviously a handful of NVIDIA's board partners also submitted their cards for a review. Pretty much all of them come pre-overclocked and/or have some custom cooling applied.
The cards tested today are:
- ASUS ENGTS450 DirectCu TOP
- ECS GTX 450 Black
- eVGA GTS 450 FTW
- Gigabyte GTS 450 OC
- Inno3D GTS 450 Freezer
- MSI N450GTS Cyclone
- NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 reference
- Palit GTS 450 Sonic Platinum
- Sparkle Calibre X450G
Have a peek of what that looks like, and then let's head onward to the next page please where we'll first dive into the GPU architecture.
We review the GeForce GTX Titan X. Now it surely hasn't been a long wait as in-between the introduction announcement and launch there have been two weeks. But yeah, the 12 GB beast has arrived. Initi...

Can anyone help please? I am looking for crochet patterns for tapestry style squares showing animals specially dogs, to insert into a granny square quilt for my small grandson. I've found cats and horses - where are the doggies ?
Love this little guy! I made it for my grandson who has a real pug in the house. I did not use felt, I crocheted circles with dark brown yarn for the eyes and the snout and then used French knots for the middle of the eye in black yarn and embroidered a mouth (also in black). It came out very cute! Oh, and I just crocheted the tail without wire so the baby wouldn't get hurt!

Historical Traveler Reviews Romanza Hotel Agios Stefanos
Quasi perfetto!
Questo hotel ha una posizione ideale, anche se su una collina quindi non cos� ideale per tutti in quanto c'� da camminare. L'hotel � pulitissimo e il personale fantastico. Sono gentili, educati e assolutamente disponibili. Il cibo era tra i migliori mai provati e il villaggio � di primissimo ordine. Non possiamo elogiare abbastanza questo hotel, il suo personale e il cibo. L'hotel e il villaggio sono ideali per le coppie ma anche per le famiglie.
Great View
My girlfriend and I stayed at the Romazna 22 - 29 August 2006. We found the hotel to be clean and tidy and largely as described by the other reviews. View from the balcony is breathtaking especially at sunset. Unfortunately this sunset view doesn't come for free and the walk down to the main area, where beach & restaurants can be found, is fairly winding and steep with no path. I would say that this hotel isn't suitable for the elderly and it became quite tiresome have to climb the hill twice a day (we are aged 28 & 30!)
Overall, though the Hotel is fine and the food was very nice. I also
would recommend going to the 'Little Prince' Restaurant (we found this to be the nicest in the area) or 'Zorbas'.
Perfect Hotel
We were looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary and I can say we definately found this at the Romanza. San Stefanos is a beautiful little town, very laid back and extremely friendly. The Romanza is the ideal setting to get away from it all. The views from the hotel are amazing, and the beach down the hill has lovely white sand and a clear blue sea. We were in swimming (even in May)! The weather in May was a bit changeable, and it was a bit chilly in the evenings, but this did not spoil our hoiday. The food in the Romanza is excellent, the staff so friendly, the Greek Night was really good fun and overall I do not think we could have found at better Hotel. I did my research before booking the Romanza and had very high expectations and I have to say I was not disappointed. The Romanza was exactly as I expected it to be and a bit more thanks to the very friendly, polite and helpful staff. I cannot praise this place enough and we will certainly be returning!
Near perfect!
This hotel is ideally located, although on a hill so not ideal for everyone as it is a walk. The hotel is spotless and the staff are fatastic. They are courteous, polite and could not be more helpful.
The food in the hotel was among the best we have ever had and the resort itself is of the highest order.
We cannot compliment the hotel, its staff and the food enough. The hotel and resort is idea for couples and families alike.
Brilliant for couples
The hotel is kept spotlessly clean by the cheery and friendly maids. It's peaceful at night and ideal for couples, with plenty of sunbeds and brollies round the pool, which was a little too cool for my liking, but then again it was the back end of September! The staff are very friendly and accommodating - nothing is too much trouble. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Romanza to anyone wanting a quiet, peaceful, restful and relaxing week. If you go for longer than a week though, you'll be hard-pressed to find enough to entertain you in tiny San Stefanos unless you hire a car or catch a bus.
The views from the rooms, pool and bar are amazing, especially the sunsets.
Romanza's food is very good, in fact I'd say the best in San Stefanos. As far as eating out in San Stefanos goes, the Little Prince was best for entertainment but we found the food a little mediocre; Zorba's was nearly as good for entertainment but the food was slightly better. The best food was at hotel Nafsikia (I think that's how you spell it!) - their stifado was excellent. The Olympia's food was very good, but there was little atmosphere.
If you go late September, take a cardi or a fleece as it's quite chilly sometimes at night. Don't even attempt the shortcut to the beach after rain - we ended up with clay stuck to the bottom of our shoes - we looked like we had platform shoes on! Also be ready with the mosquito remedies - you have been warned!!
My parents made a last minute booking and although we looked at reviews of it on net we didnt think it would be as great as it was. The views are incredible-no exageration.
best hotel in san stefanos
Will be returnin
Best hotel in Greece
Arrived at Romanza 1st time 6 years ago, last minute deal and night flight. So wasn't expecting much, in fact the village and hotel looked very poor as couldnt see much. How wrong I was, woke up 1st morning for one of the best views I have ever seen. The hotel is top of a 800m hill going away from the village (quite tiring during the day to walk up). The hotel itself is great, very friendly, great bar, very clean pool (water freezing though). Like much of Corfu the bar will stay open as long as you want anything up until 2-3am. Take the short cut to the beach, only takes 5 mins, this is the best end of the beach anyway - much quiter, but there is a nudist beach just 300-400m further up if you dont like that sort of thing. (It wont bother you though)
The resort is excellent as well. Quite quiet but just about enough very good restaurants to eat at a different one each night of your holiday. Kapetanios, 2 stars and sunset dream were our favourites. (olive press not up to much though). You can get the bus outside Romanza for Sidari which is worth a visit as is 4-5 the size. If you want a British pub, the sundowner is good (its not really British anyway juts British owners, so there wont be any lager louts at it, screaming drunk).
Have now been back to Romanza/San Stefanos 4 times now and will continue, the resort gets bigger every year with a few more hotels and restaurants built.
You'll love it and wont be dissappointde, 10/10
Fantastic! Love this hotel.
We came across Hotel Romanza several years ago by accident - we went on a last minute deal and didn't know where we would end up. obvioulsy we were a bit worried about where we would end up and had visions of the hotel from hell. so we were absolutely delighted when we arrived at Hotel Romanza, San Stefanos. Perched on the top of a cliff, all the rooms, the pool and restuarant have spectacular views over the sea. it is particularly beatiful early evening when the sun sets over the sea. the hotel rooms are clean, bright and airy. the pool is lovely and the restaurant and bar have both nice food and a nice atmopshere. the owners and staff of the hotel are also lovely - really helpful and friendly. the only downside is the walk back from the village. the hills are very steep and if your going up there during the day in the heat it can be very tiring. however, its worth it for the quality of accommodation - plus it helps you keep fit! San Stefanos itself is a beautiful little village. its quiet although every year we've been back it seems to be getting a little bigger each time. not for the rowdy, but enough restaurants, pubs and clubs to keep the more modest entertained! gorgeous beach too. San Stefanos and the Romanza are pure quality and when going back to Corfu we always go here. Thoroughly recommend this - you will NOT be disappointed!!!!xx
Year after Year we stay at the Romanza!
We stay at the Romanza every year,this hotel is definitely underated it is better than some 4 star we have stayed at. The owner,his family and the staff will bend over backwards to serve your every needs!
Food is the best in san stefano, the hotel is on the cliff top with a short cut to the beach, hire a scooter or car to go down to the village.
We are so in love with this hotel that we have named our new house after it!
If you are elderly, do'nt worry,Costa and his family and staff will take good care of you! We know!
Hotel with a view to die for
great hotel, friendly staff and fantastic views across the bay. but being on a hill would make it hard on the old or anyone who has walking problems.its classed as a thomsons 2 star but should be a 3 star for my money.the resort of san stefanos is a 10 min stroll down hill all the way,but remember you have the harder walk back up.the resort is reasonably laid back,but still has a good few bars eating places,gift shops etc.if you like me and hate the bus transfer from the airport it costs about �20 for a taxi and well worth it as we had got to the hotel unpacked cases and were on our 2nd drink in the bar before the bus arrived.
hope this helps anyone looking for a holiday in a quieter resort with a real friendly feel to it

... that she is using seems to think we are below sea level? As we approach the port we can see Corfu Island across the beautiful turquoise sea. At Igoumenitsa we parked at the terminal and went to enquire about tickets, we decided that the crossing to Ancona would be best, it sails tonight at 12 .30, takes 16 hours and allows dogs in the cabins. We paid for our tickets and returned to Dream Catcher. We drove out along the coast for little while as we had time to kill. ...
Not much of an exploration
... Milan that we are paying for the ticket.

Yesterday I fell asleep at 3 and didn't wake until 7pm. Thus I was not surprised when I woke up at 1:15, thinking it must be 5am. I read a couple of chapters of my novel about a Venice policeman and fortunately fell asleep until 7am. For the first time in months there were no dark circles under my eyes this ...

... their shoes, but I just grabbed a boat back to P.Roma and returned to the ship. People who went later had a nice time, no water.
The first time we were in Venice, in 1997, the day was perfect, sunny, not hot, not cold, thousands of shops displaying Carnival masks. It was a magical place and I always wanted to come back. I'm glad I got to come back and take vaporetto rides and see the city again, but the magic was gone. Maybe on another ...

The following day was a sea day on our way around the bottom of the Italian 'boot' and on to Naples. The ship stopped at 5 am about half way between Greece and Italy after a distress call was received from a small power boat with 42 Syrian refugees. Our ship stood by until the Italian coast guard arrived and took them all aboard leaving the small boat behind. We were on our way again just after 10 ...

After the meeting i went to reception, picked up my sheet and went back to the room to make my toga. I also packed bags and relaxed a bit first. I got some of the others help in fixing the
toga and then went down to the club area of the resort. We drank, danced, took pictures. I talked with some in the other groups and relaxed and had a good time. It was a good night and it got a bit crazy at times. I ended up going to bed about 2am. Another walk up the hill.

Gigantic bug stripped trees clean of leaves!
carolbarrelAugust 17, 2009
I'm not generally squeamish, but a very large insect made quick work of leaves on three young fruit and nut trees. I saw the bug perched atop the stripped naked almond tree and tried to shake him off, but he was glued to the tree with huge legs with haunches bent. Ugly thing, probably 1.5-2 in long and 1 inch in circumference. He fell out when I knocked him off with a stick, thinking I could capture him with my newly-emptied compost container. But then I couldn't spot him, his brown body blended into the leaves and I couldn't find him by poking around. Dang it! What is a boll weavil and do they only eat cotton? I need to identify this large invader and learn how to eradicate and prevent an invasion next year. Hellppppp!
