The name of a hunting camp leased by Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a GOP presidential frontrunner, and his family has rippled through the nation, stirring up the long standing debate around the N-word.
For the women on "The View," it's been a topic of conversation since at least 2008. After Jesse Jackson used the term, Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd said that it was seen as an endearment in black culture but that it was off limits to their white co-hosts.
Sticking true to her argument three years later, Shepard took issue with Barbara Walters's discussion of Perry's camp on Monday's show.
Both Goldberg and Walters said the name — Niggerhead — in full, but Shepherd only took issue with Walters using the word.
"When I heard you say it, it was fine. You said it a different way," Shepherd told Goldberg. She told Walters, "I didn't like the way you said it. . . . I don't know if it's a semantics thing, but it's something that goes through my body."
"Is it because I'm white?" Walters asked.
The word and its use, though, is not the main problem with the Perry story, Ta-Nehisi Coates points out. The Atlantic writer sees a bigger issue than just one word painted on a rock. "[This] says very little about Rick Perry, and a lot more about the country he seeks to govern," he writes.
"What we see on display in the quotes is the insidiousness of racism, the way it gets in the blood, and literally alters the senses. A black woman in the county claims she was constantly addressed as 'Nigger.' A white man, in the very same county, claims that 'Blacks were perfectly satisfied.' "
Perry's ranch is by no means the only racially insensitive name of a location in the United States. Andrew Sullivan collected stories from across the country from his readers who recalled similarly named products and places, from the Deep South to the Pacific Northwest.

Favorite window look: Bamboo shades & billowy white curtains
Everyone already knows that besides paint, we think curtains are the number one way to add polish and style to any space! It's a super simple way to add height, drama, and billowy softness, so we finally got around to adding some long floor length $5 Ikea curtains on either side of our bamboo shades in the den- just like we did in our living room a while back.
Here are our boxy den windows before, just calling out for some soft and serene floor length beauties (don't mind John in the corner taking some measurements). Sure the room looked clean and "craftsman" without them, but something was missing…
Just look at the difference a few inexpensive white panels can make (oh and check out our curtain-hanging tutorial for a few tips and tricks):
Of course we're all about hanging them high and wide, to make the window appear even bigger than it is and ensure that they don't block an inch of light (which always makes a room feel open and airy). Our white curtains of choice are always Ikea's Vivan panels (at just $9.99 for two, it doesn't get much better than that). We also love that they come in two lengths (98″ and 118″), so even those with taller ceilings can snag the longer versions (which will only run you $14.99 for two) and achieve the same breezy and inviting look on the cheap and in an afternoon. Look, even Burger's a fan.
The bamboo roman shades are actually from Walmart since they always seem to have an affordably priced selection in a bunch of standard (and non-standard) sizes right in the store. We've even hung two of them next to each other in the living room to mimic the look of one long blind without spending a huge amount on a custom, oversized roman shade.
We also love to get our oil-rubbed-bronze-looking rods from Target. They're understated and simple so the curtains get all the attention- just the way it should be. And the standard ceiling in the den feels so much taller thanks to our new additions, which introduce breezy vertical elements to add to the illusion of height.
I can't believe it took us so long, especially since we've been so quick to suggest curtains to anyone who will listen! The lesson: convince your husband to take you to Ikea far more often. And even if he groans about hanging more curtain rods around the house, bribe him with a trip to Taco Bell and get on with it.
What about you guys? Do you have any rooms that could use the polish and added height that floor length curtains can bring? Any other totally overdue decorating tasks on your to-do list? Do tell.

Those curtains look great! We have ridiculous heights on our ceilings and I can never find 108 or 108+ that are affordable. I might try those Vivan panels in one room. We have another room that is 132(11′ ceilings) do you think we should take the panels all the way to the top?
I love them! Such an inexpensive solution, and it looks so lovely afterwards.
My issue is this: I love the look and height of the long curtains, but we live in an apartment in an old building that has baseboard heaters (as in little metal boxes that jut out from the baseboard and get really hot and kick out heat), so having floor-length curtains is not an option, at least in the winter, unless we want to start a fire. So, do I hem curtains so that they're about a foot off the floor (that's the lowest they can be and still be safe)? Or do I hem them just below the window frame (about 6 inches higher)? Or do I just skip curtains and mourn my stupid heating situation?
"hey let's go to ikea!" is never met with anything but eye-rolls and heavy sighing. i have to dole out snacks like you would with a three-year-old to get through the trip with my fiance. however, that's still way easier than trying to get a bookshelf through checkout and into the car all by myself.
glad to know i'm not the only one with the problem!
Man, can I just say again how much I wish we had an ikea? I haven't even set foot in a store!
I'm with you on Wal-Mart and Target though…and what a gorgeous difference those make in your room!
I am not convinced with the curtains in the last pic. I think it stole the attention to the fire place a bit. May be its just me :)
Wow you guys read my mind! We just moved to a new home with a triple 12′ wide sliding glass door. It makes for a wonderful view to the back yard however it's in desperate need of a few curtain panels to soften the look. My question for you is where do I find a curtain rod that will extend 12′ or even a little more to accommodate hanging the panels to each side.
I love the blog, stumbled upon it a few months ago and just can't get enough!
Thanks so much!
ohmygaw…they look amazing! Love love love. I might have to use that Taco Bell technique to get Jeremy to drive to VA so I can spend a little QT with your new curtains – and you of course :) oh and I went Walmart hunting for bamboo shades…no such luck at my local stores…do you know where else we can hook up with such beauties? As always – you guys have a perfect post!
Why not just pin the curtains up and out of the way in the winter and take them back down in the summer? Just a thought.
Here's MY issue (we all seem to have issues, don't we?). I already bought some curtains at Cost Plus for my guest bedroom, but I haven't bought curtain rods yet because I just realized they won't fit right on one of my windows. It's a small window at the very end of the wall, and the window casing is only about an inch from the corner, so the finial won't fit. I can't decide if I should just hang the rod as far over as I can and deal with it not being hung centered over the window, or if I should leave the finial off and push it up against the wall. Either way, I'm sure no one will notice but me, but what is the proper thing to do in this situation? Gosh, life is so complicated.
I am a huge fan of your blinds/curtain combo, and have started recommending it to anyone that will listen. It's even made it into some of my design plans (which I'm giving away today on my blog!!)
You've totally sold me on how finished a room looks with blinds and drapes. I've refrained from hanging curtains in our farmhouse since we have too few windows and I didn't want to block any natural light. Your "hang them high and wide" approach with the bamboo shade has solved my dilemma.
I have hot water baseboard heat and have had no problem with floor length curtains. I would spend some time checking how hot your heaters get before giving up entirely.
Beautiful! We still have to hang up those curtains in our living room!
I was just going to email you about curtains! I need a curtain tutorial! I'm definitely going to be using this technique for my living room. Speaking of…I want the window open but I have a piano in there that I don't want to get too faded. Do you guys have any opinions about window films that block UV light?
I'm currently avoiding two curtain projects: my dining room and my family room.
In my family room I've got 2 sets of 3 windows each, both in an L-shapes pattern, set close together. Two on one wall and one on the other, if you can picture it. Right now they have sort of heavy brocade-ish valances and wood blinds left by the previous owners. I'm down with the blinds, but the valances have to go. I have no idea what to replace them with though. We have a cathedral ceiling in there, so maybe faking the high shades wouldn't be a bad idea to draw your eye up, but I'm not sure what curtains to use. Right now our daughter's toy benches are under the windows, so I think long curtains are out.
The dining room (currently being repainted) has a bump-out in the front with 3 windows, one wide one in the center and two narrower ones on the short angled walls on either side. I just have no idea what to do in there!
Also, I've never been to ikea, since we don't have one close by, but I hear it can be overwhelming. I'm almost afraid to go!
You mention the LR in the beginning of the blog – where are the 2 (what looks like clear mauve glass) lamps from?
Thanks (as always)
lol @ the thought of highwater curtains.
the hubby hates ikea and has refused to go to ikea with me ever since the first day we stepped foot into the store. he felt light-headed after an hour or so and thought that eating 4 hot dogs and 2 ice cream cones would make him feel better. unfortunately, it didnt work lol.
and i myself have a love/hate relationship with ikea. anybody else?
I agree with you Sara, I think the curtains make the room unbalanced with the very low lean sofa on the left. It feels a bit off kilter, at least in the photo. Maybe the left side needs something to balance the height of the curtains.
I have tried to purchase the Ikea Vivian panels online and have been unable to do so,alas I do not live near an Ikea. If you could not purchase the Vivian panels what would be your next thought? I recently bought very expensive Cameron panels from Pottery Barn but do not like having to spend so much?
Looks great guys! God bless IKEA! :)
I honestly think that in this particular room I liked it better without the curtain panels, it looks a little too jumbled to me now.
I love the look of white curtains, but have been warned against them because they can get dirty easily and show dirt easily. What do you think? Do you clean yours? Currently we have taupey-greyish ones that I don't love at all and would love to replace with white. Thanks!
Love, Love, Love the look of the new curtains, it really makes the room looked 'finished'. It's too funny that you posted this today…I just finished hanging white curtains in our master bedroom yesterday (we have been without for 4 years) and I can't believe what a huge difference it makes! Now I want to hang them all over the house…
Just wondering if these curtains provide privacy if you hang them solo – nothing underneath. I have a huge sliding glass door and would rather not have to deal with anything other than the curtains. They look so beautiful, but a bit wispy and transparent. Is that the case? Thanks for sharing your new look!
Can you give more information on your fan and target lampshade DIY? I looked it up in the source list, but I didn't see anything on how you all did that. I would love to try something like that, but most of our fans have multiple bulbs.
not really curtain related, but i came across this store & immediately thought of you youngsters, so your style!
Love the new curtains… isn't it funny how the simplest things are overlooked, but then once you change them it makes a world of difference?
We've been getting our house ready to sell, and it's amazing how doing just one or two little things really makes a room look better… We just finished painting the bathroom, added some new hardware to the cabinets, and put up a new shower curtain and it is absolutely incredible what a huge difference it makes!
Nicely done! :)

We love this lamp!! it match the rest of my collection perfectly, I placed it on a table in the entry, beautiful décor, we get so many compliments on it, it's the right size and height and a very affordable as well. Thank you overstock.com!!
bought these lamps as doing a blue and white decorating theme. Very happy with size, quality and design of lamps. Would buy again if needed
This lamp is larger than the picture would suggest. The height listed is accurate but it is really substantial overalll. The detail of the flowers on the base is beautiful and there is a slight cracked finish under the glaze that makes the lamp look antique(ish). It is a bargain at this price.
I have recent;ly ordered many things from Overstock.com furnishing our new vacation home in VT. These lamps fit perfectly into a blue and white guest bedroom. The color is more grey/blue than navy blue as pictured. They are 3-way lights, although one only worked on 1 of the 3 ways and I took it to hardware store where they fixed it to a 3-way for $10...anyone handyl could probably have done it themselves. Overstock has fantastic customer service for any problems needing to be addressed. All shipments are received within days of ordering. Only could say great tings about Overstock!
I ordered 2 of these lamps. They arrived in perfect condition. The color is more of a blue-grey than navy...exactly as pictured. They are beautiful & substantial & perfect for my living room. I was hesitant about ordering lamps online but am very glad that I did!
Sorry - Looks nice but fair/poor quality shades damaged , no longer a value if you have to go out & buy new shades
Lamp is a lovely addition to our new decor. The shade was slightly bent when it arrived, but I was able to straighten it with a little work. It has the look of much more expensive lamps. The shade is very nice, also. I was a little apprehensive to buy a lamp without being able to look up close and feel it, but this one did NOT disappoint me.

antique silver and antique pewter finishes
Okay, the other day I asked for help in deciding on kitchen hardware. Nickel hardware or black. a couple of GW suggested antique silver and antique pewter as other possibilities.
My new question thanks to the DH asking me and I don't have the answer - hoping my fellow GW will.
Question: Will the finish wear like ORB fixtures over time or will they last forever? Does anyone know or have experience with these finishes?
bumping this for you. I would think the answer would depend on the quality of the finish at the beginning. Check out Berenson Hardware. I got my ORB from them, no sign of change yet. They pride themselves on their finishes. You could probably contact them with this question, as well.

I've had antique pewter for 6 years. No problem. Agreed, it depends on the quality that you begin with.
As of this morning 2-9- We are back to brushed nickel hardware. DH saw a home improvement show this AM and they were highly recommending the Brushed nickel pulls.
DH has seldom expressed an opinion with the remodeling - NOT his thing- I am perfectly a ok with the brushed nickel.
I dont recall who on the GW showed pictures of her kitchen with the pulls installed horizontally on uppers as well. Loved how it was eye pleasing. So am going to "copy" the idea in my very narrow galley /l shaped kitchen.
I asked s similar question recently, specifically about Tob Knobs in antique pewter finish. One reply was all good after 1year, one reply was the handle on the refrigerator was showing wear after 7 years.

Italian Scientists Demonstrate Cold Fusion? 815
from the believe-it-when-it-powers-my-toaster dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
"...the experiment provides a power gain of 12,400/400 = 31"
Well since the power gain was only 31, it can't possibly be cold fusion.
When they hit '42'....let me know....*goes back to sleep*
Finally someone figured out a way to synthesize copper, so people can stop stealing it from the plumbing of abandoned buildings in Detroit.
The question is how to get rid of all that extra waste energy it releases... Maybe we can shunt it into space somehow?
This sounds like any number of hoaxes that have been perpetrated; be they related to cold fusion or perpetual motion machines.
The "inventor"/"discoverer" are the only ones who can repeat the process and always under their own conditions or in their own lab. On further inspection the man behind the curtain is always found instead of any real magic.
On the other hand, if it is a hoax they could write books about it, sell videos online, claim to be suppressed and silenced, then retire.
More out than in = no
It's called rest energy...and they're certainly not getting out more than they put in.
That said, I'm more than a wee bit skeptical that this works. But if it does...well, I'm gonna go long in nickel and short the copper market

No joke. AGW folks will go nuts when they find out we're not just making greenhouse gases, we're making heat!
Er, I live in Vancouver, BC you insensitive clod. What is this strange bright thing in the sky you are talking about?
Call me when they've built a commercial-scale reactor and are giving out free electricity.
Oh yeah, well, call me when they've built a commercial-scale reactor and are giving out free electricity... ON THE MOON!
Fortunately, they say that they'll be shipping commercial devices within three months
Yep. The first delivery is already booked for April 1st.
no scientist or engineer has worked out how to do it.
I have, you get a chip with small channels and voids through which you pass hydrogen. On that chip are pulsed semiconductor lasers that create 'hot' fusion, on a very small scale. Doing it on a microscopic scale makes the energies manageable.
I am currently working on the funding to build a lab and hire some eggheads to implement the trivial details of my genius idea. I have already identified an ideal site for the laboratory inside an extinct volcano.
Its a great investment opportunity. Want to be on board with the first round of funding?
I don't know how any of you people are hoping to receive phone calls when you're not posting your number.
Free energy, if it existed, would be the biggest economic miracle in all the history of mankind, make no mistake about that.
Miracle as in "OMG! We can make money out of this! Economic boom FTW!" or as in "OMFG! We are so fucked, everything will now be free! RIP economics, we don't need most of you now."?
An optimist believes we live in the best world possible; a pessimist fears this is true.

nu-gaze, or the New Wave of Shoegaze, is a form of alternative rock originating in the late 1990s / early 2000s. The genre takes the ethereal, heavily effected guitars of the British shoegaze scene of the early 90's and combines it with more modern influences from both sides of the Atlantic. The genre is very diverse as certain bands have synth/electronica influences and others have heavier rock elements but all are united by layers of guitar textures.

Glomalin Production and Microbial Activity in Soils Impacted by Gypsum Mining in a Brazilian Semiarid Area
Adalia C.E.S. Mergulhao, Helio A. Burity, Fabio S.B. da Silva, Sonia V. Pereira and Leonor C. Maia
DOI : 10.3844/ajabssp.2010.422.429
American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences
Volume 5, Issue 4
Pages 422-429
Problem statement: Mining activities involve the removal of the vegetal cover and the soil organic layer, causing a severe environmental impact. In Northeast Brazil, 40% of the worlds crude gypsum is found in a semiarid area, making this region responsible for 95% of the gypsum demand in the national market. Although economically important, this activity is harmful to the environment. Studies of soil microbiological and biochemical attributes can help in the identification of the limitations of impacted ecosystems, providing data to define strategies for sustainability of such environments. Approach: To evaluate and compare the biological state of preserved and mining degraded semiarid soils, a native preserved area and areas impacted by gypsum mining were selected at the Araripina Experimental Station, located in the semiarid region of Pernambuco State, Northeast Brazil. The four sampling areas included: (1) A native, preserved ?caatinga? area with spine bearing trees and shrubs and some characteristic xerophytic plants (AN); (2) An area surrounding the mine, presenting the same type of vegetation although already degraded (AM); (3) A waste deposit area (AR); (4) Interface area between the waste deposit and a mining degraded area (AI). Samples were taken in each area (1000 m2) during two periods: wet (December/2003, Rainfall = 28.7 mm) and dry (September/2004, Rainfall = 1.3 mm). Results: Fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis values, microbial biomass C and basal respiration were higher in the preserved caatinga than in the impacted areas. The gypsum mining activity reduced the concentration of easily extractable glomalin in relation to the native caatinga area in both sampling periods. Higher deposits of total glomalin also occurred in the native area, however, mainly during the wet period. Conclusion: The mining activity produced a negative impact on the soil microbiota, reducing the total enzymatic activity. The microbial biomass was significantly lower in the waste deposit area than in the native and interface areas. The results indicated that the mining activity is harmful to the soil microbiota in this area and that glomalin can be a useful indicator of soil disturbance.

"I absolutely love this wedding suite. I was reluctant to order my invitations online, but I am so glad I did. The paper is high quality, the words are clean/legible, and it looks exactly like the photo online."
"I submitted several design changes online and the designer got everything right the first time. We're having a set menu so instead of a meal selection, I had them include a section for Advice for the Bride and Groom. And I also changed the wording on the responses and added a third option. Overall, it turned out perfectly the first time and I had no review changes. I highly recommend this product!"
"I am so happy with how these turned out. I requested a designer change to add a line that said "we have reserved __ seats in your honor." It was perfect- looked like it had been there all along."
"I really like how the response card turned out in the end. I like the white background since the other cards have a black background."

Help-My dog has been vomiting!
My dog is a seven year old Wheaten terrier, had her groomed last week. I think she picked up a bug at the groomer. Last night she started licking the rug. I took her outside and she vomited. She was okay all night, slept fine and seemed normal in the morning. So I fed her half a can of food. She vomited three times since. She's acting perfectly normal, meaning she's following me around and spends most of her time resting. But I'm worried abpout the vomiting. My Mother says I should bring her to the Emergency Animal Hospital. My inclination is to skip feeding her tonight and hope she's okay tomorriw. What would you do? I'm thinking of phoning ther groomer to warn them about my dog beeing sick after a visit. Again, what should I do?
Is she only vomiting and no diarrhea? My dog once vomited numerous times because he had eaten some palm plant leaves and he got quite sick from it. Any chance she ate something like that? I agree with bland food tonight and see how she is in the morning. Is she drinking water OK?
Vomiting dogs and dogs with the poops ........even if they aren't 'sick' are at risk for dehydration. I'd certainly hold her food for the rest of the day, but if it were my dog, would not restrict clear fluids.
It's your call, but if she is acting normally and doesn't have a fever (please say you have a thermometer dedicated to your dog and use it) I'd also be tempted to watch her through the night to see if she starts acting sick or uncomfortable and also to see if holding her food doesn't give her some relief. I would not say that if she isn't totally back to her old self I wouldn't call the vet in the a.m. and run it by them. I have on several occasions used the emergency option of my vet and paid the fee gladly, but it was for things like obvious urinary blockage with accompanied vomiting and posturing meant waiting wasn't an option. I do not use if for vomiting for 24 hours three or four times with no other symptoms (unless there were a chance of some sort of ingestion where I wouldn't wait one minute).
Good luck. But please monitor for dehydration if you decide to use the wait and see option. You do not want to be away at work tomorrow and still have her maybe in distress.
She vomitted all day Sunday,and had dry heaving during the following night, but she woke up hungry
Monday morning and scarfed down my cat's wet food. I called the vet, who said as long as she doesn't have diarrhea, I can probably treat her at home. She suggested small amounts of boiled rice and ground beef, so I cooked some up, let it cool down, and fed a little at 9 am, noon, etc. She seems fine. Luckily I am retired so I didn't have to go off to work leaving a sick dog. She seems to be doing fine. Thanks for all the advice.
I was hoping you'd come back on and let us know how she was doing. I will not hesitate to put out money for vet services when it's appropriate and my last barn cat, bless his heart, we called the six million dollar man. But, we don't have an emergency vet service. Our dear family vets drive in specially for emergency calls day or night (God I'm lucky) and charge accordingly. So, I try to consider the safety of waiting it out to normal vet office hours, as if they need seen quickly, they'll be worked in as soon as the office opens. I don't want to make them come in unnecessarily any more than I want to pay the emergency fees. They'll give you guidelines over the phone if you need them, but I pretty much triage them like I would a human and hit it spot on most of the time.
They get 'bugs' just like humans. And many of those bugs they get over just fine without emergency intervention. The key is to know what is dangerous to wait on and what isn't.

Description: Polarized connectors and headers for your perf board/PCB projects. Use these connectors for power connections or any sensor/general connection to prevent users from connecting the peripheral incorrectly or reversed.
This is for the male header. Be sure to order the housing and crimp pins!
Pins have standard .1" spacing.
Why don't you sell the kit? All the necessary to work with this kind of connectors?
(Duplicate deleted)
Is this part listed in the SFE Eagle Library?
Yes, the connector part is MOLEX-1x3 or MOLEX1x3_LOCK in Eagle.
These wouldn't happen to be the same connectors used on computer fans would they? (I mean the 3 pin variety)
Thanks for your help.
Use small hook up wire..
it is cheaper..
and no, the ends are not long enough
will this allow me to plug a 3-pin servo female cable into a breaboard?

About this location
The Tuscany region
You will be in the heart of Tuscany, close to the sea, and ideal for any day trip to visit the arts town as Florence, Siena. Cinque Terre is also not far, and can be easily reached within a 2 hours drive from the farmhouse.
Tuscany is a by far the most famous region of middle Italy. It is best known as the home of Florence where the renaissance of art and sculpture began.
So in Florence are some of the most famous churches and museums worldwide.
Lucca's province offers a beautiful countryside, the famous beaches of Viareggio and Forte dei MArmi and wonderful mountains as Te Apuane Alps as well as the Garfagnana Region.
Lucca itself is a medieval city on a plain and is still completely surrounded by its 16th Century walls. It has rightly become a noted tourist destination. The rolling hills around Lucca are famous for the extraordinary quality of the olive oil Even the local wine production has been in the last decades strongly increased.

I am Art and language interested, educated in arts and in university in Amsterdam. Fell in love with Tuscany where I am located. Love to travel and interact with cultures. Great to host like-minded people once in a while. I help friends who also rent out to guests who love Amsterdam.
Ym has completed online and offline ID verification.
Buena anfitriona, buen barrio y buena descripción. Es un piso pequeño pero muy cómodo y bien situado, no estás en el barullo del centro, pero llegas en 5 minutos en transporte público y en 10 andando. Ella es muy simpática y os facilitará en la medida de lo posible la estancia, recomendable.
Yvonne made us feel really welcome which was really nice. She has been really patient waiting for us as our flight and train ended up to be late. The area was well located (15min walk from main canter) in a quite neighbourhood just far enough away from the noise of the center. The flat was big enough for 3 people, just be careful with the stairs as they are very narrow and very steep. Warning !! There is 50€ cleaning fee however, when we got there the sheets and blankets were stained with blood and bodily fluids. So we are not sure if the 50€ really goes into cleaning or refurbishment of the flat. Unfortunately for us, on the Sunday morning we had no hot water. For the place that we paid knowing she charge everybody that 50€, Yvonne should at least provided clean bedding. We brought it to her attention to make sure the next guest don't get the same surprise.
Un appartamento piccolino adatto ad una coppia, situato in un quartiere tranquillo a 15 minuti dal centro (a piedi). Sono stata 5 notti qui con altri 3 amici e complessivamente ci siamo trovati discretamente, l'appartamento è un monolocale di poche pretese, con un unico divano letto (difficile da aprire), molto luminoso e sopratutto caldo!!! L'unica cosa negativa sta nella pulizia, il divano era sporco, c'era molta polvere e prima di mangiare abbiamo dovuto dare una pulita a tutto. Spero che i 50€ delle pulizie siano usati bene!!!!! L'host è molto disponibile e simpatica, per l'organizzazione del viaggio è stata presente e comprensiva e affidabile :)
The problems with my reservation started a few weeks before I was scheduled to leave. On the listing it says that the check in time is 3PM so I told Yvonne that our flight arrives at 9:30AM in hopes that we might be able to check in earlier. What instead happened was that I got a message a few weeks later saying that because I hadn't messaged her saying when we'd arrive, which as stated before I had in fact done, Norber (the other host) would greet us in "the evening". We didn't get any more specifics than that so when I asked about it I was told that it would be between 7PM and 9PM. We only found out exactly at what time we would check in around 3 or 4 PM. Fortunately, we had a friend in Amsterdam so we could leave our bags there for the day. Another big issue we had was the state of the apartment. A lot of stuff was dirty and disgusting. A bowl in the kitchen had old crackers in it stuck to the bottom. The utensils were greasy and even dirty. The glasses were dusty and gross. We used plastic ones during our stay. The beds themselves had massive stains of unknown origin and should be replaced. God only knows what people did on those mattresses. We were charged 50 euros for a cleaning fee which I assume the host just pockets because the entire apartment is so small that it could be cleaned by 1 person within an hour, let alone by someone who does it for a living. Additionally, there was hair everyone. On the beds, mattresses and sheets. I don't even want to think about the fact that I was probably sleeping on somebodies pubic hair. I have no idea how this place is advertised as being big enough for 6. When the couch opens there is barely any room for another 2 to 3 people to sleep on the floor. We could barely walk around the apartment to go to the bathroom at night. The positives about the place are that it's close to the center. The bathrooms were nice and clean. Definitely do not stay here if you want decent living conditions during your stay. If you consider this to be an acceptable sacrifice due to the proximity of the apartment to the center (20-25 minutes to the Red light district) then go for it.
Great place with a good location not too far from the center if you dont mind walking a bit, the studio is cosy, Norber and Yvonne are two good hoster they will stay in touch with you if you need anything they are clear about the place everything is written on the descriptions, so read well everything and you ll have a perfect time, no surprises. I had a great time, enjoy.
The house was really little, but perfect for a couple. Clean and in a really quiet place, we had just a couple of little problems with the principal bed, so unconfortable and noisy. The bathroom and the kitchen are little, but perfectly usable.
Yvonne is a very good host! She is friendly and also can help you with everything you ask. The apartment is in the quite area that is important for good sleeping. Moreover it is near the center and you can easily reach it in 20 min. The apartment was good for us (4 persons), because we was walking all day and came back at evening, but I think it is perfect for 2 persons and a lil bit small for 3 or 4. Bed linen and towels were provided that's good. Anyway, everything is perfect in Amsterdam! Thank you Yvonne!
Dear Georgy, you were such a perfect group. Well mannered and always answering our questions to make your checkin and checkout just perfect. It was no problem to receive you on odd times late as we know long time before and could suit your needs and integrate in our day planning. Always again, would recommend this group again to all hosts. The perfect guests!!!!!
Das Studio liegt in einer ruhigen und angenehmen Gegend. Es ist sehr hell, große Fenster und angenehme Aussicht auf einen kleinen Platz. Da es für vier Personen ausgeschrieben war, habe ich es mir größer vorgestellt, hier war die Beschreibung ungenau. Ich würde es nicht für vier Personen empfehlen, es ist dann ein Matratzenlager, das morgens weggeräumt werden muß, um sich an den (schönen alten)Tisch setzen zu können. Das abgebildete Sofa ist ein Schlafsofa, hinter dem Sofa befinden sich noch mehrere Matratzen. Die Küchenzeile ist ebenfalls klein, aber ausreichend (kein Backofen), Dusche und Toilette sind getrennt, was bei mehreren Personen sehr angenehm ist. 50,- Euro für die Reinigung finde ich zu viel.
Die Wohnung liegt direkt am Vondelpark. Es war wunderbar ruhig zum ausschlafen und die meisten Ziele konnten wir innerhalb von 20 Minuten zu Fuß erreichen. Die Wohnung entsprach den Beschreibungen und war für den Zeitraum den wir gebucht hatten im Preis sehr attraktiv. Die Schlüsselübergabe war problemlos und bequem. Norber ist sehr freundlich und hat uns noch einige Tipps für die Gegend gegeben. Kurz: Für den Zeitraum und die Lage eine Wohnung zu einen guten Preis. Gerne wieder
Yvonne was a fantastic host, very friendly and helpful. As soon as we arrived at the place she was there, expecting us with a warm welcome. The studio is nice. A big room really that turns into 'bedroom', kitchen and bathroom. Bed linen and towels were also provided. We were 4 people so it was just a little bit smaller than expected, but it really depends on the person. We really thought it was great and cozy. The area was also great! Quite area really, about 10-15 mins walk to the city center. Maybe 20 if you wanna take your time. There is no need for rush in Amsterdam anyways, right? ;) The only con of the studio would be the staircase though. It is steep, and by steep I mean really REALLY steep. You don't really get used to it, at least for the week we stayed, but it is not that big of a deal. Overall, would definitely recommend Yvonne. Thanks again!
Ospitare Yvonn ,è stata una bella esperienza, molto gentile e perbene.Grazie mille spero di rivederti.Un saluto affettuoso Francesca.
We had good and fast communication with Yvonne and had no problem arranging check inn and out. She made a mistake by booking the check inn a couple of days before, but we could solve it out together quite fast. I had no problem with Yvonne during her stay and she seemed a very nice girl.
Yvonne is a pleasure to host; super friendly and outgoing!!! Definitely I would host her anytime!!!!!
Lovely couple who i enjoyed meeting very much. Hope they come back - Malcolm.
Yvonne and her friend, who stayed in my appartement this last weekend, are very enthousiastic, friendly and good guests. I am sorry I could not meet them. We communicated through mail and mobile phone and it worked very well. Of course I hope to meet them in person some day.
i like to be host ym ; we have been friends very quickly. she is cleanly,kindy,friendly and indulgent so much. everytime i can host Ym ;)
Yvonne staid at our flat once again, she's a regular visitor and we trust her a lot. Till next time!!
Perfecto! Yvonne es una persona muy agradable, el departamento quedo en perfectas condiciones. Muy recomendable!
Ym Meissner è una persona molto dinamica, interessante e gentile, non ha creato nessun tipo di problema e consiglio quindi a tutti di ospitarla tranquillamente. Antonio De Nardi
Great guest, she rents the places for her or her students, so she's not there all the time, or sometimes we don't know the people in, but it's been a very good experience, they were all lovely and easy going, and we'll sure be meeting again here.
Yvone is great, she was easygoing and sweet, simple and respectful, we will keep on working together I'm sure. She is fun to chat with, an to share activities, even dinner with her Argentinian friends. Very into the art's world and of course a great TANGO dancer and teacher.

I'm an American interior designer/television host recently relocated from Glasgow back to the US. The place I currently hang my hat is sunny Santa Monica CA . My hobbies include: sailing, yoga, working out, film/TV, and of course travel.
As a newcomer to LA I can honestly say I was more than pleasantly surprised at how friendly and easy going the city is. Beach living is simply the best, and I've taken full advantage of it 3 blocks from the water in Santa Monica.
