It was a pleasure to host Steffi on her solo business trip to LA, especially as we had a chance to have a long and interesting conversation with her about sustainable living, a mutual interest. She was very easy to please and was very appreciative, leaving the room spotlessly clean. I can recommend Steffi to all AirBnB hosts without reservation!
Stephanie was a sweetheart visitor with the demeanor of a tall beautiful princess and an intelligence and fortitude to handle an important Civil Engineer position in a large German city. I never cease to be impressed by guests who are doing important things in the world, and also have a high level of pleasant graciousness in my humble home. However, soon she will be a mother and her capabilities will perhaps have surprisingly different directions!
I was sorry Franz couldn't be here, but I am counting on his coming someday...with family.
Steffi was a very sweet guest. I enjoyed having her stay here very much. I would gladly welcome her back anytime, and recommend her to all other Airbnb hosts.
We love Stefanie! She was courteous, respectful, quiet, clean and tidy, so much so that after she checked out, the room was in the same condition as if no one used it. Highly recommend. Please come back and visit us anytime!
Steffi and Franz spent the final days of this particular travel adventure at my home. They didn't waste a moment, taking in as much of San Diego as they could in the short time that they had. In terms of my home, they were great guests...clean, friendly, courteous, and fun. I would highly recommend them to anyone!
It was my pleasure to host Steffi and Franz and would do so again. They are both very kind, friendly people and I hope to meet them again in the future. I would recommend hosting them to anyone.
Steffi and Franz were wonderful. Enthusiastic, amusing, easy to talk to with a great sense of adventure. I hope that their camping trip went well. I highly recommend them.

I disagree with FFScotland and wobytides- but I do agree that the media often portrays it as such. I think that there are of course a few dissenters in all parties, but the vast majority of MPs in all three main parties are generally happy with their leadership. Take labour, for example. Labour MPs may not have voted for EM, but there are no great backbench rebellions to place David or anyone else in charge and I doubt there will be- unless he does anything totally ridiculous, of course, which, knowing labour, he might.
THERE is a paradox in here, somewhere.
As British political coverage emerges from the Christmas break, the most interesting news stories involve the future of the Conservative/Liberal Democrat coalition, and how that question splits Tories into two camps.
Over in the Cameroon centrist camp, ever-more senior sources have been heard saying that the coalition is a marvel—a once-in-70-years opportunity to drive through ambitious reforms—and thus Conservatives should be thinking of some sort of electoral pact with the Lib Dems to preserve it. Andrew Grice of the Independent got a scoop last Friday, when friendly ministers briefed him that Andrew Mitchell, the International Development Secretary (and a Tory) had urged cabinet colleagues to ensure that the Lib Dems won an upcoming by-election in the northern English seat of Oldham East and Saddleworth on January 13th, even though a Conservative candidate is contesting that three-way marginal.
The Sunday Telegraph quoted a senior Conservative minister close to Mr Cameron as saying he would be "relaxed" about the idea of having "some Coalition candidates at the next election" and noted that the prime minister had:
caused anxiety among his backbenchers last week by using a joint news conference with Mr Clegg merely to say he "expected" the two parties to fight the election separately
The Independent was back on the case this morning, reporting on the other camp in the Tory party, over on the right, which dislikes the coalition and is deeply hostile to the idea of making it more permanent. This time, the Indy talked about a campaign about to be launched by a prominent Conservative activist and blogger, Tim Montgomerie, to tug the party back to "Mainstream Conservativism", and away from the siren lures of centrist alliances with the Lib Dems. Mr Montgomerie is quoted telling the Independent:
"The liberal Conservatives who want an ongoing alliance with the Liberal Democrats are arguing publicly and behind the scenes for a continuing arrangement between today's two governing parties. Mainstream Conservatives must also organise and prove that there is a better future for the Conservative Party and the country."
Mr Montgomerie said that tax cuts, a tough approach to crime and opposition to an EU superstate were not "right-wing" ideas. They were supported by "the vast majority of the British people but not by the left-wing majority of the Liberal Democrats".
And the paradox? Well, it seems to me that the Cameroons who talk such a good game about the marvels of coalition politics are actually pushing for the destruction of coalition politics. While the right-wing Tories who wake up every morning in a thorough grump about life in bed with the Lib Dems are the ones who understand how coalitions work in countries where they are a norm.
To explain. The centrists who love the coalition—the liberal conservatives around Mr Cameron and the conservative liberals around the Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg—have lots of plausible things to say about how tricky reforms and grown-up, responsible policies are made much easier when they are being promoted by two parties. If this were a Tory majority government, they explain, voters would always suspect that Conservative ideology explained the ideas being mooted. But because voters can see that a rather different party, the Lib Dems, are also on board, it is much easier to convince the public that these decisions are about the national interest, not ideological zeal.
They have a good line to spin, too, about the need to have some sort of electoral pact, or multiple pacts, at the next election. We get on so well, they say. We are so good together. How can we possibly turn around at the last minute and start attacking each other?
And yet, and yet. Once such Cameroons start down the road of electoral pacts, that "above ideology" sense of two parties acting in the national interest dies. What they are talking about is not the preservation of the coalition, but a merger of the bulk of their party with the bulk of the Lib Dems, presumably spinning off some MPs they dislike on the Tory right and Lib Dem left, and leaving them in a congenially centrist party.
Now as it happens, that sort of centrist, liberal party might turn out to be fairly congenial to this newspaper, too. Who knows? But it would not be coalition politics, at least in the sense that I saw covering European politics over recent years. It would be a realignment of the British political firmament that would strengthen, not weaken, the British tradition of two-party politics.
On the continent, coalition parties understand perfectly well that they can work together in a government for a few years, then thump each other about at election time. Some of this is due to electoral systems (once you have proportional representation, you are stuck with four or five party politics at least). But part of this is because the parties thrive by playing up their distinctive identities. Come election time, supporters of each respective ideology seek to maximise the vote for the matching party, to increase the weight that their worldview will carry in the next government (which will inevitably be made up of more than one party).
At the last German federal elections, for example, the vote for the business friendly Free Democrats was greatly boosted by disgruntled backers of Angela Merkel's main centre-right Christian Democrats. Such Christian Democrats, who inhabit the free-market edge of Mrs Merkel's broad church of a party, thought the Chancellor had been pulling her party too far to the left, and overdoing her rhetorical attacks on the wickedness of capitalists and financiers. So they voted Free Democrat, in order to tug the duvet back in the direction of free market thinking, while pursuing their other aim, namely, to end Mrs Merkel's coalition with the centre-left Social Democrats.
In Belgium, where I was based, elections are not so much about choosing a new government (not least because elections in Belgium do not at the moment result in agreements to form new governments). Instead, they are about different tribes—French-speaking socialists, Flemish corporatists, Flemish nationalists et al— competing over their respective electoral quotas, with a view to maximising their interests in the new coalition.
I am not a big fan of that sort of coalition politics, for what it is worth, because it makes harder for ordinary voters to reward good politicians and punish bad ones. But oddly enough, the likes of Mr Montgomerie and his woo-the-base "Mainstream Conservativism" campaign may be on the money, in their understanding of what a Britain with coalition politics might really look like.

I just hate the natural frequency response of my beats pro's, but I absolutely love the sound of them once I have dropped the lows and boosted the highs. I just feel like other than their crappy response, they are wonderful headphones. I don't even feel like they are a bad deal at all (like every other beats set of headphones in existence) because after I put clean, powerful signal into them, I don't think they can beat for a set of durable cans. I own a set of HD 800's that I can't even listen to with my normal music. That 6000 hz boost is so painful. Sure they can't be beat for sound quality recorded tracks, but for everything else, I prefer a quiet but thumpy low end, and narrow sound stage. So yeah, I use my eq'd beats more often than my hd 800's.
try the HD 650s out, i think you will enjoy them alot.post #138 of 1502/26/13 at 7:13am
Hey everybody
I was planning to invest in a pair of Beats Pro, but I would like to know is there is a better option at the same price, no more, no less. So far I really like the Beats, but I want to hear opinions of others. Note, I need headphones with top quality sound, since Im a musician and the headphones are for my studio. thanks!post #139 of 1502/26/13 at 8:00am
If you value sound quality at all, then don't buy any headphones in the beat range.
If you're buying them just to look cool and to impress your mates, then buy one of those fake pairs for $20. (They'll probably still sound better than the real thing)post #140 of 1502/26/13 at 8:02amQuote:Originally Posted by jowiesax19

I have a pair of Sony MDR-V55 headphones that you can buy in the UK for under £40 ($60) and they blow the beats away in terms of sound quality and build quality.post #141 of 1502/26/13 at 8:14amQuote:Originally Posted by TheReem
LOL no. beats maybe over priced but that is a riduclous statement mate. the v55 are not even better than the solo hd. Beats pros are decent headphones very fun to listen to. I compared the pros to many headphones a few that they beat out are the ath m50, V moda m80 & m100. xb500 and xb700. The only cheap headphone that beats the pros are the shure440 but ot be fair in terms of clairty they beat my d2000 for clairty.
Well we'll agree to disagree then.
For me, the V55's have a far more balanced sound than the beat pros, which just sound boomy and make the mid-range sound like mud.
I don't believe that you've tried the V55's, so aren't in a position to make a comparison.post #142 of 1502/26/13 at 8:37amQuote:Originally Posted by TheReem
LOL i have owned them, How can you claim that someone hasn't tried them? The bass on the pros does not even go into the mids. The beats solo are an example of going into the mids. The pro can be a bit muddy sometimes with certain songs but they do have a clarity to them they also have nice bass and it's decent quality. Is it £200-300 quality absolutly not but to say a rubbish pair of headphones that are muddy sounding like the V55 is better than the flagship pro model that competes with good quality headphones in the £100-150 is just plain hating.
I still much prefer my v55's.
I've had them for over a year now and use them daily and they still show little to no signs of cosmetic wear. Unlike the beats where the headband has a high likely hood of snapping in half after a few months of usage.
You said that the beat pros are "fun sounding". Which is fine, some people prefer a big bassy sound over a more natural balanced sound. But I just prefer my music to sound more accurate. (No tracks sound muddy on the v55's, unless they're very badly mastered)post #143 of 1502/26/13 at 8:47am

I'm not trying to state my opinion as fact, so I apologize if I come across that way.
I bought the V55's when they were fairly new and paid £75 for them. But even then, I thought it was a bargain at that price.
I should also note that the V55's still retail at around £100 in many UK stores. Well worth the £40 that amazon are asking for them.
I'd take them over the beat solo & pros everytime. (Can't comment on the studios as i've never tested them, although they seem to get a bigger negative reception than the solos and pros).post #146 of 1502/26/13 at 9:21amQuote:Originally Posted by TheReem
No worries man, I have never really enjoyed a lot of sonys but many people do supose it just depends on what sound signature we are used to. If you didn't enjoy the pros you would hate the studios there awful for the price if you have heard the v moda crossfade lp they sound similar to them maybe a tad better in some areas. I hate the solo and studio they have too much bass with bleads a lot. Here in the UK we have so many competetive headphones at the 100-150 mark that the beats can sound terrible to some of them.
They'll never be a perfect headphone for everybody at any price range, because everybody has different tastes and perceptions of sound.
I think some of the headphones here in the UK are actually over priced compared to other places such as the US. A lot of the time it works our much cheaper, just to get them shipped over.post #147 of 1502/26/13 at 10:16amWow! I did not knew how critcized the beats where. Here in US they are very acclaimed by many, even professionalspost #148 of 1502/26/13 at 10:24amQuote:
The "acclaimed" are generally teenagers who have no idea that they can get far better sounding headphones in the same price range.
The "professionals" are big named celebs who are paid good money to endorse the headphones.
You get it here in the UK as well. Big star football/soccer players wearing them before games. (Sadly, people fall for it and end up squandering money on headphones that really aren't worth the price)post #149 of 1502/26/13 at 8:44pm

I'm for abortion if the foetus will kill the mother.
I'm for abortion if the baby is going to be born with a defect or disability that renders it as a vegetable or where it will live in pain for it's entire life, no one deserves to be brought into this horrible world AND have to live with a horrible disability.
Once it's human, then I personally think it should be kept alive and put up for adoption or whatever but even if the mother chooses to get an abortion late into the pregnancy, I respect her choice to do so and think that everyone else should get the **** away and keep to their own business. It is her body and her choice, what if someone told you not to brush your teeth because you were committing mass genocide on the bacterial life in your mouth? and Yes, i compared human life to bacteria - what of it? My Reason -
And yes, I've heard the Ray comfort argument (Guy's a nob by the way - Banana is the Atheists nightmare, look it up), where he compares the Holocaust to abortion. Those Jews, handicaps, Homosexual's, Gypsy's etc were all living breathing people with lives, the foetus is not when it's in it early stages and let's be honest, the differences between a madman trying to exterminate millions of people based on ethnicities and backgrounds is a lot worse than someone getting rid of a rape-baby or a mass of cells that has been growing in their womb for a few weeks, a mass that has had the fortune of never setting foot into this world - it won't care, the foetus is indifferent to it, do you remember being in the womb? No? so you see...
Know this. We humans have survived on slaughter and killing. We kill many different species in order to eat and survive (Chicken, Ape, pigs and cows to name a few) so what makes their slaughter any less horrible than a humans? Last I checked, all of those species can have children, they feel pain, they can cry, they have emotions (even if we cannot read them well) and above all, they're like us - inhabitants of this planet, animals. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not a vegetarian or an animals rights activist, I'm just making a point that we kill other beings to sustain ourselves but we look the other way with ease because they're not us, we can't talk to them or understand them. Interesting point - You ever notice how people act when they see a dog getting killed or beaten? They flip out big time but likewise, when met with the fact that the burger they hold was possible only from a pigs or cow being gutted and killed they either don't care, or retort with "Yeah, well they use a bolt now so the pig won't feel anything" Yeah, well I doubt the foetus really gives a **** either, they feel no pain for 24 weeks, more than enough time to make a decision on whether to keep it don't you think? The only reason people are so touchy about dogs is because they are used as pets on a mass scale.
Humans once had no problem in killing each other, it was common practice, entertainment even, look at ancient Rome, Greece and the Mesoamerican civilisations ffs, better yet, look at the 'Christian Nation' that is America, or 'The Holy Land', The Death Penalty is common Practice in both and in 'Murica', (The 'Christian Nation) it seems a lot of states have chosen to ignore their 6th commandment - not very Christian a nation are they? As for the Holy land and it's predominantly Islamic Law, they take a more easy stance on killing - Anyone who kills an innocent person, anyone who is homosexual, anyone who cites blasphemy or who commits adultery can be killed, just like that - more so women than men too - refer to the Rape Law or how women are treated compared to men when killed by stoning.
Look here because the powers that be won't let me use an image extension - http://en.wikipedia....ited_States.svg
See, people like to think that this world is built on justice and that no one likes to kill but one only has to look at their laws and their makers and indeed society both now and in the past, to see that that assumption is very wrong indeed - You can't change human nature, we can't; no matter how much we want to believe it; we'll always be killers in one way or the other. We're animals like the monkeys and the pigs, we're nothing special, we just think we are becuase we've turned materials into stuff, so grow the **** up and shake of the superiority complex.

Know your Territory – IP is a Territorial Right Registration in Europe Does Not Guarantee Protection in China
Intellectual property rights are by their nature territorially limited, which means that IPR within a country are independent of any such rights existing in other countries.

Alibaba – Who is responsible for keeping out the counterfeits?
Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba is back in the news this week, but with less fanfare than its biggest-IPO-in-history success story back in September. It has been criticised in a report from the State Administration of Industry & Commerce (SAIC) over hosting the sale of counterfeits, among other illegal trading issues. Data from the SAIC suggests 63% of listed brand goods on the site are not genuine – no insignificant number to be sure. This has kicked-off a battle between the SAIC and Alibaba, with counter-statements from the company and a number of accounts of alleged infringements emerging from both sides.

The cylinder moves or rolls in the labyrinth - a board of squares, blocks and holes. White squares are safe to stay on, blocks stop it from rolling. Find the way through the maze and insert the cylinder into the hole. Then prepare your brain for the next level.
The full version of the game is Ad-free with all 30 puzzles unlocked.
The game logic is simple. Push the cylinder by sliding a finger towards the desired moving direction. Then it either makes a single move or starts rolling sideways until it hits some block or falls off the board.
Sometimes the maze contains special fields:
The snowflake field turns the cylinder into a frozen cube. Use this option to move it instead of rolling. The ice will melt after several moves.
The plus block moves up or down the other plus box alternatively.
The labyrinth can be rotated for better view.
In addition, most mazes offer the player hints for the next move towards the final goal.
