With regret I found Miles too meticulous, not used to traveling and to adapt. I advice him to go in a hotel next time. Regards
I have traveled many times through AirBnB and have absolutely no problem "adapting." You can tell from my previous reviews. Lucilla's apartment was slightly dirty, which I mentioned in the review. That is just fair to the AirBnB community. I did however complement Lucilla's charming personality. She is simply using this review process as a way to get back at me for leaving a fair, but critical review of the apartment's hygiene.
Miles was the best guests anyone can hope for. He was very discret and left the apartment in order . He respected all the guidelines and rules. I recommend Miles without hesitation and he can come back any time he wants and he will be welcome, Looking forward to seeing you again in Paris.
Stéphane .
Miles and his girlfriend are a charming couple , very considerate and quiet. Miles is very communicative so it was easy to host.
They are young and smart , they covered all the Montreal interesting places in a short time.
Ideal guests ! I recommend them to other hosts and welcome them back any time!
A delightful couple, warm and considerate.
I know Miles from back at Columbia University in 2008 and have kept in touch with him since. Miles is fun, chill and trustworthy. Whether it is saying by Miles, or having him stay by someone I might know, I believe the experience would be positive.
Miles is a good guy. He's also got a good name: Miles Lennon. How could you not give him a +1? I'd vote for him.

Throughout our three days at Wave Hotel, we were thinking what an ideal hotel to stay in LA when you don't want to be too far from LAX and be in walking distance of a beach. So, great location and the convenience of an LAX shuttle service. But our good opinions all came unravelled on the day of check-out. That morning I enquired at the front desk whether, because of our late flight time (10.30pm) back to New Zealand, we could possibly have a late afternoon checkout as a courtesy. The desk clerk at the time checked his computer and said "should be no problem sir. Maybe we should book the shuttle for 6.45pm." We packed our bags, cleared up the room and spent most of the afternoon by the pool. At checkout, dealing with another desk clerk, we discovered that we were being charged an additional day rate. I told him that I had not agreed to any extra charge, in fact it had never been discussed. The shuttle was waiting and the clerk finally told me that "there must have been a mistake" and my credit card would only be charged for the three nights. I thanked him, but on returning to New Zealand, I soon discovered that the fourth night had been charged. I emailed both the booking service (booking.com) and the hotel explaining all the above, but the hotel refused to acknowledge any of my discussions, replying to the booking service (not me) that " it was made clear that any checkout after 6pm would incur an extra charge." This was a clearly fabricated response. No such condition was ever communicated to me. So beware. If you request a late-checkout at any hotel, be sure you know the terms of the arrangement clearly. Don't take any implied courtesy for granted.

Giving Touch-Screen Buttons Depth and Height With Pneumatics 146

Establish a grid of button surfaces, kind of like pixels, which can be dynamically re-grouped to merge them into larger buttons, and then put the display on that.
So, imagine you had a keyboard with essentially no gaps between the keys, and a screen on top of them. You could make one button out of qwe, one button out of tgyh, etc., while displaying your graphics seamlessly.
Or you could just do what ATMs have already been doing for ages, which is have blank buttons beside the screen and add the labels. But nooo, gotta be all fancy-like...
The assembly of something with 15 buttons using the linked idea would probably be quite a lot cheaper than the assembly of 15 separate buttons, and the electronics to drive it would probably be simpler.
Whack-a-mole! Now with a digital display and tactile feedback! imagine the possibilities!
Wouldn't it be easier to just add a piezoelectric layer to the screen and add haptic feedback that way?
Okay, maybe not octopus skin -- but in it, we have an existence proof for a surface that can display high-bandwidth color changes and slower, but quite elaborate, texture changes. With all the progress being made with microfluidics and chip-scale effectors, why on Earth would anyone pursue a chugging, hissing, thermodynamically-disadvantaged pneumatic system for this?

Nostalgic For the ZX Spectrum? Soon You Can Play With a New One 91

The keyboard wasn't that bad. Sort of like many Apple keyboards. Ok, both are really bad.
What? The ZX Spectrum keyboard was years ahead of the competition with its square, flat, chiclet keys. It took decades before the PC industry realized its potential instead of emulating old typewriter keys. These days even Apple's Macbook Pro has flat and square keys, a clear tribute to the ZX "Speccy" chiclet keyboard.
On a more serious note, while the ZX Spectrum keyboard wasn't for touch typists, it had its advantages too: all the BASIC commands was printed on or above or below the keys, so it worked as a BASIC "cheat sheet". You only had to press "G" to print the command "GOTO" so it saved key presses and removed typos in the commands and functions etc.
The ZX Spectrum worked very well as an entry level PC with an emphasis on learning BASIC programming. I know several people who made a career in the IT business because of what they learned from programming the ZX Spectrum.
There have been home projects to replicate the spectrum, ula included...
one was called speccybob which replicated the machine in TTL logic, meaning it would be possible to take that design and cram it onto a single chip.
But alas, the person running that project ran into lots of bad luck and had to abort it.
To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so.

'Celebrity whisperer' lifts the lid on the red carpet divas after a 14-year career escorting the rich and famous to award ceremonies
Keeping an eye out: Chris Gaida, circled, accompanies actress Cameron Diaz asattends the 80th Annual Academy Awards
If you're an ardent celebrity watcher, the dark-haired chap in these pictures could look strangely familiar.
For he has spent the last 14 years walking the red carpet – despite not being in the least bit famous.
Chris Gaida is a celebrity 'escort', charged with making sure everything goes smoothly for A-listers when they attend awards ceremonies.
Indeed, such is his ability to defuse a diva tantrum that he has earned the title of 'celebrity whisperer'.
But now he has turned writer to lift the lid on those tantrums – and the tricks A-listers use to stay in the spotlight.
Mr Gaida, 38, has accompanied dozens of celebrities, including Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt, to events from the Oscars to the Vogue Fashion Awards.
In his book, he reveals that some stars like to walk into a venue once for an interview then come out and do the whole thing again when the fans – and photographers – have arrived.
Others, including Paris Hilton, arrive at the venue hours early to prepare, go out the back door and drive round to the front in a limo to make their 'grand entrance'.
As well as wardrobe malfunctions and last-minute schedule changes, Mr Gaida has also had to deal with some distinctly unfriendly behaviour.
Describing the time he was charged with looking after Sharon Stone, he said: '[She] did not seem to care for me – or maybe she was having a bad day – when I escorted her. She did not shake my hand and asked me to walk in front of her and not look back. It crushed me a little, but not everyone has to be nice to me.'
Grammy award-winning singer Chaka Khan was also less than polite.
Arm candy: Chris with Paris Hilton
Pretty woman: Chris with Julia Roberts
He revealed: 'Maybe she didn't see me …but I felt someone's hand on my back and a huge push which caused me to hit my right shoulder against the wall and for my shirt to rip on it.
'It was a "get out of my way" shove. I stood there for a few seconds but I never heard an apology or even noticed her stop to see if I was all right.' Mr Gaida said that socialite Miss Hilton used a classic tactic at an awards ceremony one year.
He explained: 'Paris wanted to make her presence known so after about an hour and a half of finishing touches we sat in her dressing room and purposely waited until the final 15 minutes before the close of the red carpet.
'She didn't want to be the first to arrive and enjoys the drama of being one of the last to arrive.' So when the time was right, they jumped into a car and drove the 45 seconds to the red carpet, arriving 'as if she came from home.'
Mr Gaida's book is Arm Candy: A Celebrity Escort's Tales From The Red Carpet.

We need to have a way to automatically champion variants based on their performance. Right now, that is a manual check and change process. For example, if we have two variants and one has a conversion rate of 15% while the other is at 7% and it's at a 80% (or whatever percentage we deem right) confidence, we should automatically get rid of the 7% variant and run the variant converting at 15%, 100% of the time.
I think it's a good suggestion. It would be good if you could set the minimum impressions, before the automation kicked in.
Yes, we need to be able to set logics, such as mimimum # of impressions and minimum confidence percentage.
Great idea Mia - we've talked about this since day one and are at a point now where we're hoping to focus some effort on testing in general, automation included. We also want to offer better reporting on traffic sources, multiple conversion goals, etc.. As we hire more developers to help us out (one just started last week, woohoo!) you can expect this stuff to happen quicker.
Would be amazing to have the ability to create custom triggers/rules based on collected data. For instance, I would love to be able to setup a trigger that automatically turns off traffic to a landing page once it becomes a statistically significant loser.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
We're a city without a plan for path to future
UP THE BIKE PATH WITHOUT A PLAN... If it wasn't for city Coun. Jenny Gerbasi (Fort Rouge-East Fort Garry), we still might be waiting to learn a group of her colleagues at city hall have decided, despite what they decided earlier, we don't really need a comprehensive plan for a system of bike and pedestrian paths stretching into our future.
Not right now, anyway.
Not that we should be surprised by the decision to scrap the already awarded $400,000 consultant's study of the future of biking and walking.
All you have to do is look at where the city agreed to build the Bombers' new stadium to understand vision and planning are not one of the Katz administration's priorities. Gerbasi broke the news that the city's active-transportation plan had been ditched late Tuesday afternoon on her blog.
"I have just learned that the Pedestrian and Cycling Strategy for the city has been cancelled indefinitely," she wrote.
Gerbasi said she made the discovery after making inquiries of the public works department about the plan's progress.
This is the way it was explained to her in an email: "Due to the current and foreseen short to medium term human resource pressures within the Public Works Department, we are suspending the pedestrian and cycling Strategy until further notice. What we have completed to date will serve the citizens of Winnipeg well for many years to come..."
Executive policy committee member Coun. Dan Vandal (St. Boniface) explained it differently to the Free Press's Bartley Kives: "We put a halt to the plan, thinking the money could be better spent on actual active-transportation projects."
So the $400,000 -- or what's left of it after the project's abrupt start and stop -- will be added to the $1.26 million that's already in this year's budget for bike and pedestrian paths.
That money will probably be well spent. But Winnipeg risks making wrong turns with short-term planning for active transportation.
It was that dump of federal infrastructure money during the 2010 civic election -- and quickly spent without planning -- that seemed to convince the mayor and city council we need a well-thought-out strategy for bike and walking paths.
Hence the $400,000 budgeted to create that plan. And now, suddenly, we're building again without a strategy for the long run, or the long walk, for that matter.
I thought the traffic-jam fiasco at Investors Group Field -- and the way so many fans responded by climbing on their bikes and even hoofing it to the opening game -- would have convinced city hall active transportation is a future in need of a grand plan.
Gerbasi sees the decision to abandon the planning as a "step backward for our city." I see it as a metaphor for an overall malaise at city hall.
We are a city without a plan for a path to the future that we can actually follow. And we have a city hall that couldn't distinguish a fork in the road from a fork in the river.
-- -- --
GARTH "BOOOO"UCHKO TAKES A BOW... Bomber fans booed the football team's CEO, Garth Buchko, at the official opening of Investors Group Field last month, but this week, in front of another audience and at a different venue, it was all grateful applause. Buchko is one of the co-founders of the Hunger for Hope fund, which, over the last six years, according to what he told the crowd at Winnipeg Harvest's annual golf tournament, has raised about one million dollars, all of which has gone to buying baby formula for kids from needy families.
Nobody was going to boo that.
And Tuesday, at the spectacular new Southwood Golf and Country Club, co-hosts Doug Brown and Ace Burpee helped the food bank and Hunger for Hope raise another $106,000.
So, take a bow, Garth. You and everyone else involved deserve it.
-- -- --
AND NOW A MESSAGE FROM POLICE... On Monday, I asked Winnipeg police why they didn't call a news conference the same day they released the so-called "report card" on how the goals they set in their strategic plan measured up against the results, just so media pests like me could ask police questions for curious citizens like you.
An answer arrived in my email Tuesday, the same day the column on the report card appeared.
Senior members of the Winnipeg Police Service will be available to the media during the week of July 22-26, when the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics issues its annual crime stats for 2012. Apparently, the police report card's noting violent crime was down four per cent city-wide was just a teaser. So we'll all have to wait to see if the Slurpee Capital of the Universe retains its even more dubious distinction -- Murder Capital of Canada.

Austin - it's taken a long time to train my mother out of portrait framing when shooting video. Fortunately there's a function in Quicktime which enables you to rotate video clips which have been shot portrait format so that they display correctly.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Just out of curiosity, how old is 'old'?
I looked through a couple of type books with good script collections and could not find this style. The strange 'l' was one letter I used as a key, along with the rather vertical style, but nothing was very close that I found.
- Mike Yanega
My guess the lettering was done around 1950-1960.
Thanks for the info though.
Very much appreciated.

Highly sensitive RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) methods now enable gene expression analysis of very low-input samples and even single cells. Ultra-low-input and single-cell RNA-Seq offer higher resolution to discover cellular differences usually masked by bulk sampling methods.
Single-cell RNA-Seq lets you read the gene expression of one individual cell at a time. With these sensitive assays, you can explore the distinct biology of different cells within an organ or a tumor, and understand subpopulation responses to environmental cues.
cDNA Synthesis
The SMARTer® Ultra™ Low Input RNA Kit, sold and supported by Clontech, is a cDNA synthesis kit designed for single-cell or ultra-low-input RNA-Seq. The kit enables robust transcriptome analysis down to single-cell input levels in high-quality samples, and is optimized for Illumina sequencing.
The assay accurately synthesizes full-length cDNA from only 1-1000 whole cells or 10 pg-10 ng high-quality total RNA. The single-tube protocol works directly on whole cells and preserves sample integrity.
Library Preparation
The Nextera XT DNA Library Preparation Kit is optimal for preparing an Illumina RNA sequencing library from cDNA generated with the Clontech SMARTer Ultra Low Input RNA kit.

Fake Outrage Alert: Alan Gross's Lawyers Have a Photo of Che Guevara! Secret Commies!
The right wing media is in unison screaming mode again, sliming newly-released American Alan Gross, because of course they are. A photograph of Gross in his lawyers' Washington DC office after getting out of a Cuban prison shows photographs of Che Guevara and Fidel Castro hanging on the wall.
In the strange paranoid wingnut universe, this is proof that Gross and his lawyers are secret commies dedicated to the destruction of America.
Here's the photo, posted by New York Times photographer Stephen Crowley:
Alan Gross, w atty Scott Gilbert & spokeswoman Jill Zuckman, prepping remarks to deliver after arriving in US…#Cuba pic.twitter.com/8Od6G54jc6

And here's a typical right wing reaction:
Holy tapdancing farkstick, what is going ON today? RT @brandonbuss: wtf??????? http://t.co/Ni6EFvud61 pic.twitter.com/ZiRBBOCPTs
— Mary Katharine Ham (@mkhammer) December 17, 2014
I don't know why those pictures are on the wall, but if I had to speculate I'd say it might be because these lawyers were working on getting Alan Gross out of Cuba for the last five years, and hung the pictures as a way to keep the issue front and center.
That's just a guess, of course. But I'm pretty sure it wasn't because they're plotting secret commie plots, and then circulating a photo that exposes them by mistake.

Video: Utah QB Travis Wilson hitting his stride one-third through the season
SALT LAKE CITY — Travis Wilson was named the National Offensive Player of the Week by Athlon Sports following Utah's win over in-state foe BYU.
If you ask head coach Kyle Whittingham, this is just par for the course. Whittingham, in his weekly press conference, said there is not a single thing Wilson is doing poorly. He said while Wilson can still stand to improve in many areas, his growth has been remarkable, and the on-the-field results have shown that.
Wilson said that although he was very happy to beat BYU and celebrated hard afterward, it's time to move on from the rivalry win and look ahead to the UCLA Bruins next week.

Meir Panim delivers warmth, special care to families in need.
First in Parshat Yitro there were the Asseret Hadibrot (the Ten Utterances, or general principles). Now in Parshat Mishpatim come the details. Here is how they begin:
"If you buy a Hebrew servant, he is to serve you for six years. But in the seventh year, he shall go free, without paying anything … But if the servant declares, 'I love my master and my wife and children and do not want to go free,' then his master must take him before the judges. He shall take him to the door or the doorpost and pierce his ear with an awl. Then he will be his servant for life" (Exodus 21:2-6).
There is an obvious question. Why begin here? There are 613 commandments in the Torah. Why does Mishpatim, the first law code, begin where it does?
The answer is equally obvious. The Israelites have just endured slavery in Egypt. There must be a reason why this happened, for G-d knew it was going to happen. Evidently he intended it to happen. Centuries before He had already told Abraham it would happen:
"As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and a thick and dreadful darkness came over him. Then the Lord said to him, 'Know for certain that for four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own, and that they will be enslaved and mistreated there' " (Genesis 15:12-13).
It seems that this was the necessary first experience of the Israelites as a nation. From the very start of the human story, the G-d of freedom sought the free worship of free human beings, but one after the other people abused that freedom: first Adam and Eve, then Cain, then the generation of the Flood, then the builders of Babel.
G-d began again, this time not with all humanity, but with one man, one woman, one family, who would become pioneers of freedom. But freedom is difficult. We each seek it for ourselves, but we deny it to others when their freedom conflicts with ours. So deeply is this true that within three generations of Abraham's children, Joseph's brothers were willing to sell him into slavery – a tragedy that did not end until Judah was prepared to forfeit his own freedom so that his brother Benjamin could go free.
It took the collective experience of the Israelites, their deep, intimate, personal, backbreaking, bitter experience of slavery – a memory they were commanded never to forget – to turn them into a people who would no longer turn their brothers and sisters into slaves, a people capable of constructing a free society, the hardest of all achievements in the human realm.
So it is no surprise that the first laws they were commanded after Sinai related to slavery.
It would have been a surprise had they been about anything else. But now comes the real question: If G-d does not want slavery, if he regards it as an affront to the human condition, why did he not abolish it immediately? Why did he allow it to continue, albeit in a restricted and regulated way? Is it conceivable that G-d, who can produce water from a rock, manna from heaven, and turn the sea into dry land, cannot change human behavior? Are there areas where the All-powerful is, so to speak, powerless?
In 2008 economist Richard Thaler and law professor Cass Sunstein published a fascinating book called Nudge. In it they addressed a fundamental problem in the logic of freedom. On the one hand, freedom depends on not over-legislating. It means creating space whereby people have the right to choose for themselves.
On the other hand, we know that people will not always make the right choices. The old model on which classical economics was based, that left the making of rational choices to individuals, turns out not to have worked as hoped. We are deeply irrational, a discovery to which several Jewish academics made major contributions. The psychologists Solomon Asch and Stanley Milgram showed how much we are influenced by the desire to conform, even when we know that other people have got it wrong. The Israeli economists, Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, showed how even when making economic decisions we frequently miscalculate their effects and fail to recognize our motivations – a finding for which Kahneman won the Nobel Prize.
How then do you stop people from doing harmful things without taking away their freedom? Thaler and Sunstein's answer is that there are oblique ways in which you can influence people. In a cafeteria, for example, you can put healthy food at eye level and junk food in a more inaccessible and less noticeable place. You can subtly adjust what they call people's "choice architecture."
That is exactly what G-d does in the case of slavery. He does not abolish it, but he so circumscribes it that he sets in motion a process that will ultimately, even if only after many centuries, lead people to abandon it of their own accord.
About the Author: Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, former chief rabbi of the British Commonwealth, is the author of many books of Jewish thought, most recently "The Great Partnership: Science, Religion, and the Search for Meaning."
If you don't see your comment after publishing it, refresh the page.
I'm sorry – but while Chumash certainly humanizes to a greater degree than the then ambient treatment of the slave – it does not abolish it; neither it nor similar serf like existences.
While it is true that in America we needed to fight a civil war over slavery, and lose over 500,000 lives, let us review in a different vein:
Approximately 3000 years ago we were given the attenuated form of slavery miSinai. In any given country in which slavery of some sort might be deemed legal, a practising orthodox Jew, in perfect concert with The Torah, can keep a slave – – especially if he is "Caanani". 3000 years later, slavery is still legal in Torah – though attenuated.
In the USA, while from 1650 to 1863 slavery was legal – for a little over 200 years of post Columbian history; that was now over 150 years ago. Already, One Third of Americas history has been spent under the umbrella of banned slavery. While slavery remains perfectly legal in Torah. It took us 200 years – but we learned. It has taken 3000 years, and Torah has still not learned.

German poet Heinrich Heine: "Since the Exodus, freedom has always been spoken with a Hebrew accent."
Our ability to teach is only successful if done by example.
Outside of the High Holidays, Pesach is probably the most celebrated biblical holiday for the majority of Jews.
"If I notify people, nobody will buy the matzos!" exclaimed Mr. Mandel. "Once the halachic advisory panel ruled leniently, why can't I sell the matzos regularly?"
So what type of praise is it that Aaron followed orders?
Her Children, Her Whim

Question: Must one spend great sums of money and invest much effort in making one's home kosher for Passover? Not all of us have such unlimited funds.
Name Withheld
(Via E-Mail)
Yachatz is not mentioned in the Gemara. What is the foundation for yachatz?
First, the punishment for eating chametz on Pesach is karet, premature death at the Hand of God.
Why is it necessary to invite people to eat from the korban Pesach?
How was I going to get to Manhattan? No cabs were going, we didn't have a car, and many people who did have cars had no gas.
Did you ever notice that immediately upon being granted our freedom from Egypt, the Jewish people accepted upon themselves the yoke of a new master – Hashem?
Why does Torah make the priests go through a long and seemingly bizarre induction ceremony?
Often people in important positions separate from everyday people & tasks-NOT the Kohen Gadol
You smuggled tefillin into the camp? How can they help? Every day men risked their lives to use them
Rambam: Eating blood's forbidden because connected to idolatry;Ramban: We're affected by what we eat
Rambam: Eating blood's forbidden because connected to idolatry;Ramban: We're affected by what we eat
There is something quite distinctive about the biblical approach to time.
Why should unintentional sins require atonement? What guilt exists when requisite intent is lacking?
Like Shabbat points to something beyond time, the people Israel points to something beyond history
The Sabbath is a full dress rehearsal for an ideal society that has not yet come to pass-but will
Jewish prayer is a convergence of 2 modes of biblical spirituality, exemplified by Moses and Aaron
With the synagogue, "Judaism created one of the greatest revolutions in the history of religion"
By wisdom, we come to understand G-d via creation; By Torah we understand G-d through His revelation

So there's a tip to any of you skilling up "

. Don't rank it up past 6. I won't get my points back until they implement a Skill Point reset option
Did you see any improvement in Engine power levels? If your engines aren't set to a high level, the efficiency skill will also improve those, but we don't know where the breakpoints are, so there might be no benefit there after level 6 either, depending on your power preset for engines.

UCLA guard Isaac Hamilton's final appeal denied, will sit out this season
Oct 31, 2013, 5:51 PM EDT
In news that didn't come as much of a surprise, UCLA freshman guard Isaac Hamilton's final appeal to have the National Letter of Intent he signed after committing to UTEP nullified was denied on Thursday. With that being the case Hamilton, a McDonald's All-American from Los Angeles, will sit out this season and lose a year of eligibility per the rules of the NLI.
Hamilton will be able to receive an athletic scholarship and practice with the team, so head coach Steve Alford and his staff will be able to groom the prolific shooting guard with an eye towards next season. And having a player as talented as Hamilton should help the Bruins' perimeter rotation, which includes Jordan Adams, Zach LaVine and Norman Powell, in practice every day.
While Hamilton was most valued as a scorer during his high school career (23.0 ppg at St. John Bosco last season), there was some thinking that if eligible he could throw his name into the mix at the point guard position along with fellow freshmen LaVine and Bryce Alford, and sophomore Kyle Anderson.
Those three players combined to dish out 11 assists (Anderson with five, Alford and LaVine with three apiece) against eight turnovers (Alford – 4, Anderson – 3, LaVine – 1) in the Bruins' 96-66 exhibition victory over Cal State San Bernadino on Wednesday night. Both LaVine (15 points) and Anderson (ten points) reached double figures, and while the Bruins do have one more exhibition game to play prior to their season opener against Drexel next Friday it seems likely that multiple players will have the opportunity to initiate the offense for Alford's squad.
