Hello, people of Wikipedia. I am User:Matthew R[obert] Dunn, and welcome to my user page. I will be talking a little about myself, and what it is I do here. But first, if you have any queries, concerns, problems with my edits, or you want any help, you are very welcome and free to leave me a message on my talk page, and I will get back to them as soon as I can. Now where was I. Oh yes...
If you happen to stumble across this page, you can either move on right now, or waste a few minutes of your time reading on. Right, all the ones who want to move on gone? Good. Now for those who are still reading, I will continue to talk about myself. As the username suggests, I am Matthew (no psuedonyms or anything, promise) because at the time of starting my account, I didn't think of using an Internet name, but I'm not bothered really. Besides, not everybody uses Internet names like "AwesomeMan20" or something. That was a name I just made up by the way. But, if there is someone who goes by that name, in Wikipedia or anywhere else and you are reading this, hello! I just think using real names is honest.

"Quit stalling, tell us about yourself!"[edit]
Alright, alright! Like the template dictates, I was born in 23 June 1988 in some maternity ward in Northampton. I then moved up to North Wales when I was but 10 months old, and I have lived there ever since. I have one brother and two sisters, who are all younger than me. When I was growing up, I went through the standard education; primary school, then secondary school. When I was 16 I attended a BTEC National Diploma course in Travel and Tourism, in Coleg Menai, Bangor in 2004. I passed in 2006, but I wanted to attend the same course afterwards for a better grade; I got a merit. In 2008, I decided to join a Higher National Diploma course for Hospitality Management. It was a Bangor University course, but since it was not a degree, I spent most of my time in Coleg Menai again. Whilst there, my group had to take part in an NVQ in a college kitchen. In June 2010 I passed those courses.
Now I am still at home, having some time off before I will look for work. I spent summer of 2009 working in a small hotel in Criccieth, mostly doing some hard labour in the kitchen, like washing dishes and mopping floor. I couldn't work there in summer 2010, because they haven't asked me, and there was some trouble involving a water leak (that wasn't me, I swear :). Since 2012, I currently work as a shop assistant in a holiday park, but it's mostly a seasonal thing each year. I also do some fair bit of editing in this great encyclopedia, not unless I count this as "work", in which case, why aren't I getting paid for this?
"Most of what you said was on that box, what else!?"[edit]
I don't feel you should know much else about me. This isn't an autobiography.
"Okay, what about interests?"[edit]
What do you have in mind?
"What kind of music do you like?"[edit]
I mostly like listening to alternative rock. My favourite bands/singers include;
I am also a fan of classical music. I however, am not as big a fan of modern music people generally love (rap and hip hop in particular)
I generally like watching action films. At times, I also enjoy watching Pixar films (and you are never too old to enjoy Disney films!) My favourite type of films are James Bond films.
|This user likes their Martinis shaken, not stirred.
|This user needs two more kills to qualify for Double-0 status.
I was always into James Bond ever since I remember, and still to this day wishes to be the next him (move over Danny). I still haven't grown out of my Bond fantasies at times. In 2007, I had to come into college one day in a suit, and since Bond wears suits, I brought a toy handgun with me and concealed it :)
The favourite Bond bits include;
- Film; You Only Live Twice
- 007 actor; Sean Connery/Daniel Craig
- Bond villain; Ernst Stavro Blofeld (The Donald Pleasence one, not Kojak, not the other guy)
- Henchman; Oddjob/Jaws/Stamper
- Bond girl; Domino Derval
- Theme song; Live and Let Die/You Know My Name

- US sitcoms (the laugh track just proves how much they suck! The ones without the laugh track are okay though)
"What else?"[edit]
"Enough! What about your history on Wikipedia?"[edit]
I started an account as "Matthew R Dunn" and did my first edit on 27 October 2007. I was aware the website was around about a couple of years before that. I started to find myself more attached to it, and eventually signed up. Ever since, I have over 4,000 edits in my name. At first, I was considered quite a newbie, editing without any regard to any of the rules. As time went by, I began to become more accustomed to them. I like editing on Wikipedia and expand the outside knowledge and insight into the behind the scenes information on pages regarding fiction, as well as the occasional edits on other topics, like articles regarding the local area.
In 22 October 2008, I created my own sandbox page to work on various projects. On 11 December 2008, I have been granted Rollback rights. I am not an administrator, and to be honest, I don't want to be one. Since 2009, I started and have made nine good articles, with three currently pending. I would have gotten eleven, but I failed two of them. I also tried to make a featured list once, but that failed too. My goal now is to try and make a featured article. Hopefully one day, if I succeed at promoting a featured article, I will nominate it for Today's featured article on the main page.
"Okay, enough with all that. What have you done?"[edit]
I'll tell you what I haven't done, trolling, or vandalise this great encyclopedia (at least, I don't do these things intentionally). Here is a list of some of my major contributions. The articles in bold indicate that I created those pages (looks at the page histories if you don't believe me).

"What are you planning now?"[edit]
Operation "Frakking Toaster"[edit]
Long shot, and just making out of compulsion, but I want to make Battlestar Galactica (season 3) a good topic, though it may never be completed, if five are GAs then that would be an achievement. In case you don't know, "frak" is Battlestar's way to say "fuck", and toaster means cylon, so it's basically "Operation Fucking Cylons"

Deeyah Khan is a music producer, composer and Emmy and Peabody award-winning documentary film director whose work highlights human rights, women's voices and freedom of expression. She is the founder and CEO of production company Fuuse which creates works in the intersection of art and activism.
Born in Norway to immigrant parents of Pashtun and Punjabi ancestry, the experience of living between different cultures, both the beauty and the challenges, dominates Deeyah's artistic vision. Aged eight, Deeyah was immersed in a music career usually reserved for those three times her age. At 13, she signed her first recording contract. At 15, she released her solo debut. Her success led to difficult confrontations with more Orthodox Muslims, whose threats eventually made it too dangerous to continue.
Deeyah directed and produced the Emmy award-winning documentary Banaz: A Love Story about Banaz Mahmod, who was murdered by her own family in London in 2006 in a so-called honour killing. The film was screened at the UN in New York in May 2014. Deeyah is the co-founder of the Honour Based Violence Awareness Network, an international digital resource centre working to advance understanding and awareness of Honour Killings and Honour Based Violence.

Interview with Margalit Kavenstock
Margalit Kavenstock's wedding. At her side: Yaakov Liash and Yehezkel Pularevitch.
Family Background
I was born in
Most people know very little about the Antisemitism that prevailed in
We spoke Romanian and French at home. In
Very little is known about the history of Romanian Jewry, either. My mother never talked about it, and the information I have is partial. What I recall is how much she disliked having had to live in the constant feeling of fear. My parents were afraid of their neighbours, and always concerned about what they might say, because neighbours often reported to the authorities on Jews in their building.
My parents were granted their emigration visas to
In the end, my grandparents fled
My mother never even knew that her parents had arrived in
I have never visited
My Involvement with the Association for the Prisoners of
In 1976 I was demobbed from the Israeli Army (the IDF) and began my studies in Social Work at
In my second year of study, we took a course on self-help organizations and all the students had to select an organization that met specific criteria, namely that it must not be an organization dedicated to providing assistance to others, but for their own group. Such organizations tend to be formed where there is no official recognition of a particular need of a specific group of people, and they were being created in
Ben Yehuda Blvd in Tel Aviv, because the address was convenient and decided to go there. Migdal Or is a large building and on the same floor there were offices for the Georgian Song and Dance Ensemble and other organizations founded by olim from the Soviet Union. Later in my life, my future husband would wait for me to finish work at the rehearsals of the Georgian Ensemble.
Anyway, I arrived for an appointment and entered a darkened room chock full of files and papers, where Yehezkel Pularevitch and Yaakov Liash sat. I explained to them about having to write a paper for university and asked their permission to present their organization. They showed me documents and explained exactly what they did. I had soon completed my paper, which unfortunately I no longer have, but stayed on to work with them in a voluntary capacity for another two years. I think this would have been between 1977 and 1980.
The Work of the Association for Prisoners of
As I got to know more about the organization, I began to appreciate how important its work was.
Yehezkel Pularevitch and Yaakov Liash founded the Prisoners' of Zion Association and it is thanks to their efforts and those of their associates that
At that time, Israelis held very stereotypical ideas about olim from the
But Yehezkel Pularevitch and Yaakov Liash claimed that these hardships had a name and had a price. People who had been deprived of their freedom and lost their health in their struggle to come to
They were not the same as everone else, and the State of Israel needed to grant formal recognition of that fact. There were many cases of extreme hardship, personal stories, despair – and I heard all these stories… They were unfit to work and some of them were mentally ill. Even in terms of their personal testimony, their life history, they had been deprived of their professional life and lost their good health. But they had not given up their dream of coming on Aliyah, although they lost so much in this cause.
All this was unknown to the general public at the time. Many years later, in light of my own grandparents' personal stories, I understood what happens to people who are deprived of the freedom to choose where they wish to live, who are sent to prison or forced labour camps, physically and emotionally abused – and all because they want to live somewhere else…
For an oleh to be establish his or her status as a Prisoner of Zion, evidence was required and testimony had to be documented. A great many applicants were unable to provide the necessary documents, so this meant transcribing verbal testimony.
Yehezkel Pularevitch and Yaakov Liash compiled, formulated and provided detailed documentary support for all the applications by people who asked for recognition as Prisoners of Zion. Every one of these required evidence and substantiation, but where people had not been given copies of relevant documents, notarized testimony had to be provided instead, both from the people in question and from third parties.
Both Yehezkel and Yaakov knew their population well, and understood the realities of Soviet life. They questioned people methodically, while it fell to me to compile and prepare the files for submission with all the documentation. They would make copious handwritten notes – I used to read each file and sometimes I would help draft the documents.
Yehezkel had superb organizational abilities and knew how to persuade people, explain to them how important this issue was, put demands on the table, organize strike action with people. As a member of the Betar Movement, Yehezkel was well known in certain circles and knew Menachem Begin personally. He set up the infrastructure for the organization and many people are indebted to him for his work.
A lot of time was dedicated to appointments. Masses of people needed to come to the office and the numbers went up each year: new people were always arriving in
Yehezkel and Yaakov were neither trained in nor inclined towards office administration: they were no good at organizing files, running an office, creating an archive, and did not know how to type, so I took over this side of the operation. For two years, I helped organize the office: there was a vast volume of paperwork all over the place, and I collected it, put it in order and filed it so that all the information about a particular person would be in his or her personal file. On the other hand, there was no problem with the work in Ivrit, because both of them had an excellent command of Hebrew, having received a Jewish education in their youth. Yehezkel even wrote books in Hebrew and composed Hebrew poetry: he had been a Hebrew teacher before his arrest and during his exile in a camp in
At first, I would go into the office once, then twice a week, and eventually three times a week: my minor academic paper ended up being a two-year commitment! It involved a tremendous amount of typing, transcribing Yehezkel's handwritten notes into letters. On many occasions, I sat in with Yehezkel and Yaakov when they received clients, to take down the testimony directly, and I also helped draft a number of applications.
I was responsible for the micro-management of the organization, including making sure of supplies of tea and biscuits, keeping the waiting list in order, organizing the waiting area. I tried to optimize the use of their time, so that there were no bottlenecks of people waiting, and to avoid having people arriving all at the same time. This was important, because many applicants had to travel into Tel Aviv from
Yehezkel Pularevitch's and Yaakov Liash's Stories
Yehezkel talked to me about his life and his family. At the time, I did not realize how important it was to write up these conversations.
Yehezkel was arrested in summer 1941, just a week before the Nazi German invasion of the Soviet Union, and sentenced to ten years' imprisonment (exile) in a prison settlement in
He also talked a great deal about his son Yakov Shavi, who served as a doctor in the Israeli Navy and perished on the Dakar, the Israeli submarine that sank without trace on its maiden voyage in 1962. Despite the great tragedies in his own life, he remained a cheerful, kindhearted man, and showed tremendous patience with other people. He always had a positive outlook on life and appreciated the good moments. Both he and Yakov Liash were products of the European academic culture and social status was far more important to them than money. Yehezkel held down a full time job elsewhere, I think it was in the Tel Aviv Muncipality, while he worked for the Prisoners of Zion Association on a voluntary basis, without any financial remuneration. Yehezkel also wrote numerous articles, as well as prose and poetry, he was extremely talented. In 1987, he was awarded the prestigious Jabotinsky Prize for his contribution to Literature.
Life was hard on Yehezkel, he suffered like Job. He went through innumerable trials and tribulations, torments and tragedies: the camp, exile, forced separation from his wife, the death of his son… It is incomprehensible how he managed to build a normal life after all of this. His son was so successful – he served as a doctor in the IDF and had not been scheduled for the outgoing sea voyage of the
When I knew Yehezkel and Yaakov in the late 1970s, they were already not young men – Yehezkel was about the same age as my own grandfather and in many ways he was a grandfather to me and we developed a special bond.
Yaakov also told me about his life – his story was marked by a great deal of sadness, He and his family came to
Today, with hindsight, I am sorry that I did not keep in contact with both of them: I got married, moved to
I have told my own children that when we are young, we begin something and then move on, and lose contact with people from our past – and that this is wrong. I deeply regret that I did not take the initiative to maintain contact with Yehezkel and Yaakov.
Yaakov Liash: A Short Biography 1916-1996
Translated and reproduced with the kind permission of "The Soviet Jews Exodus" website © www.angelfire.com/sc3/soviet_jews_exodus/POZ_s/POZ-45-1.shtml
Yaakov Liash was born in 1916 in
From 1937-1938, Liash served as movement commander for Betar in Shaulai.

This HP offering is a capable all-in-one that doesn't break the bank, but print quality is underwhelming.
Nobody gets fired for buying an HP printer and the LaserJet Pro MFP M225dw is no exception, with all the right print, scan, copy and fax options the SME needs.
A new colour inkjet All-in-One, the HP OfficeJet Pro 6830 is quick, capable and well equipped in terms of wireless and mobile connectivity.
Instead of piling on the features, throwing in extra ink tanks and cramming as much functionality as possible into the device, the HP Deskjet 2540 strips the inkjet printer down to its bare essentials.
A colour laser MFP and ideal workhorse for a small business or compact workgroup. There's a good level of mobile device compatibility, too.
This robust photo-orientated printer is also great in the home office, but is it right for you?
Is this portable multi-function printer worthwhile, or an expensive luxury?
Hewlett Packard's TopShot LaserJet Pro M275 is a multifunction device with a difference. Instead of a scanner, it captures images using an 8MP digital camera located on a foldaway arm.

Results for Workplace Learning
Student Success in Hospitality at the Bay of Plenty Polytechnic
Māori learners in the workplace setting
This NPF project examines the experiences of Māori workplace learners in industry training organisations across three trade settings: building and construction, the motor industry, and electro technology. It will lead to practical recommendations concerning how industry training organisations can better meet the needs of Māori workplace learners.
Language in the trades
This collaborative project between Victoria University of Wellington and WelTec aims to improve the ability of tutors at New Zealand polytechnics to meet the literacy needs of all students, and in particular, Pasifika students.
CSWEANZ field education committee
We are the group of Field Education staff whose schools affiliate to CSWEANZ. We hope to share best practice ideas, issues and plan for our rare face to face meetings!
Knowing Practice
Knowing Practice is a study of practice-based learning across different occupations. In the trades, practice-based learning is usually called "apprenticeship". In information technology industries, it's known as "cadetship". In the later stages of formal learning in medicine, social work, and teaching, it's "practicum" or vocational "immersion".
Our aim is to understand the way in which practice-based learning operates across three different occupational fields:
GP medicine;
building; and
Non-completers in industry training
This project aims to explore the factors that are associated with apprentices and industry trainees at levels 3 and 4 not completing their qualification.

Take your time installing to get alignments just right. Fit is right on. Can't speak as to durability yet, but material seems tough enough. One thing I would have liked is for the entrance side of each seat bottom should have some sort of complete tuck in feature. There is a 3" piece on the front that works great, but it should be all along the edge. Issue is bottom cover, entrance side will move after awhile when getting in truck.

Highlander 2: The Quickening (1991) Sci-Fi Movie Review
Sci-Fi movies Review
I'm with ScottyMcD on this one. I first saw the original Highlander when I was about 17 (ten years ago…ugh) and I thought it was pretty damn cool. A bit cheesy, yes; not the greatest acting, yeah; but it had a lot of style. After seeing the first film I thought I would check out the sequels and I was just like…wtf? For a while there I had trouble watching the original Highlander because I kept thinking about all of the so-called "back story" that we were shown in the second one. Thankfully I have been able to put most of the movie out of my mind and am now able to enjoy the original again. All I have to say to those who have seen the first movie and none of the sequels is that I wish I were you.
Synopsis:In the future, Highlander Connor MacLeod must prevent the destruction of Earth under an anti-ozone shield.

How did you trim your vinyl windows (pics please)
What type moulding did you use. I would like more than just picture frame casing but not sure how to put a stool on since you can't nail into the window itself.
Please help with some ideas and pictures of yours.
Here's what we did:
The vinyl windows are Jeld Win Atlantic Pro series(I think that's the name) and they have slots to insert wood trim. Our window stool is thicker than the slot (it's perfect for the sides though) and so we routered the board so it fit into the slot. It's then nailed to the studding/blocking in the wall to hold it secure.
Thanks, that is exactly what I wanted.
acountryfarm, I love the natural wood mixed with the white.
Can you show me your trim on the inside of your doors, also.
We do not have any slots for the window stool. Our window frame is just flat and square. How would you attach the stool in our case.
Wow acountryfarm! The arch entryway with arched door is awesome! (the rest is pretty awesome, too!)
The casings are VERY nice! So was everything else. Outstanding craftsmanship and very obviously high budget if done with a "budget" at all. I'm not knocking these but it's completely impractical to expect a DIY'er like most of us to come up with those results. It's deflating to look at pics like those when you're trying to dress existing windows on a budget of about $50 a window. Those windows dressings look like they're about $100 to $200 per window if I had to guess. Most of us just can't afford it. My windows have blinds already and are finished with drywall. I'm not going to throw the blinds out to put wood on the sides so, I'll add a wood sill/stool and apron and pic frame the sides and top. That will come out nice enough and keep me around $150 for 4 windows at 4'X3'.
tdpillo - Please excuse my harshness, but I think you are judging before asking questions.
For the record much of our home is DIY. My husband and I did all the hardwood floors, did the majority of subway tile. We did all the grout and mortar. We also did at least half of the millwork throughout the house. We did our own concrete stairs outside in 3 different places, did the scoring on the concrete slab in greatroom, will also do the staining and sealing when the time comes. We did almost all the paint prep. Will do ALL the painting, did the crown throughout the house, did the columns, did the beadboard. Will do the T & G in the outside breezeway. Will set all the finish plumbing fixtures and do final cleanup and all the landscaping which is extensive.
I have 11 children, and yes this is a large, expensive home. We absolutely had a budget. If I wanted the house of my dreams I knew we would have to do the work. We also had an incompetent builder that did nothing so we had no choice.
Our current home is also a house we re-did everything. We had a smallish (2200 sq. ft) home that had basic apt. type molding everywhere. Formica counters, lino floors etc. We re-did all woodwork, counters, floors, etc. We now have a lovely home to sell w=hen our other home is finished.
People can DIY and get these results. It is not impossible. But with such a negative attitude it would be hard for sure. I see something and I want to do it. I have learned so much just getting my hands dirty and saying I can do this.
Our current home looks beautiful for a very small amount of money. It can be done, you just have to want it and do the work. I searched out bargains, deals, and internet finds regularly. I do not think someone is destined to mediocrity because of money.
Life is what you make it, not what your stuck with.
Your house looks beautiful. I can't wait to see finished pictures. You have also inspired me and my DIY abilities. I love your quote that you don't think someone is destined to mediocrity because of money. That is something we all seem to forget. thanks and good luck with the rest of your project.
bto24 - thank you very much. I appreciate your comments.
I am constantly amazed at such negative attitudes and then people blame others for their problems, etc.
We can do just about anything we set our minds to, its not always easy, but doing nothing and complaining about it is nothing to be proud of.
Thanks again for your compliments.
acountryfarm........your quote is amazing and so is your house. WOW! And 11 children....WOWOW! Wonderful!
Your new home is truly my dream home and I hope you will share pictures once everything is painted. We have a way to go before we can start trimming any windows, but I envision a similar style as yours for our interior.
ellied, I have no pictures to share with you yet, but I hope you find what your're looking for.
Mamabird - thank you for the kind words. We are now finished with paint prep and will be painting next week. I can't wait to post pics. IT has been a long 3 years and still don't know how this will all turn out on the legal side. I pray everyday that I will be able to move into this house we have worked so hard on.
You probably haven't read my whole story (its been on other posts) but I am amazed at the things contractors and banks can get away with.
In any case we are happy and healthy and we go forward because there are no guarantees that we have anything beyond today. If this ever turned out to be my last moments I wouldn't want sadness and despair to be what I was remembered for. I want my children to know me for what I can get done not what I wallowed in.
Thanks Again !!
hi we have just installed all new vinyl windows but they need buildouts. we had wood windows before used all wood oak trim so can i still use the oak or should i go white i wonder what would look better. i love what you have done do you have the dimensions for the wood pieces maybe i can try that please help thanks

The absence of underground drainage facility and garbage piled up in 23 colonies, including 12 pourakarmikas' quarters situated in different parts of Mysore city figured at a special meeting of City Corporation officials, pourakarmika contractors and leaders held here on Monday.
Perturbed by the allegations of pourakarmika leaders, M. Shivanna, Chairman of the National Safai Karamchari Commission, sought to know why basic amenities had not been provided to pourakarmika colonies.
A few officials said many pourakarmikas refused to work in their own areas.He also Mr. Shivanna directed officials to close "open drainages" in the colonies and construct underground drainages. Another leader pointed out that pourakarmikas were not promoted even once, though they had put in more than 30 to 35 years of service. He said that even Group D workers in different departments got promotions after putting in a certain number of years of service. He urged Mr. Shivanna to impress upon the government to introduce promotions to pourakarmikas. Mr. Shivanna promised to take up the issue at a higher level. Mr. Shivanna asked the Commissioner to identify places to construct a 'dress room' for pourakarmikas in all wards so that they would change their clothes before and after the work.
He noted that as per official figures, there were over 805 persons involved in man-hole scavenging in the State, out of which 350 were in Bangalore. However, he stated that he had reports that more than 8,000 persons were involved in man-hole scavenging.
Mr. Shivanna asked the officials to appoint more pourakarmikas and buy more trucks and other machinery to collect and dispose garbage. Despite repeated directions from the High Court, the Bangalore City Corporation could not clear the garbage in Bangalore and such a situation should not happen to Mysore, he said.

'SNL' Recap: Sofia Vergara Visits 'Hunger Games', Mocks Fran Drescher (Video)
The "Modern Family" star played up her accent and sex appeal during the first "SNL" episode following a month-long break.
Modern Family star Sofia Vergara started her Saturday Night Live hosting duties by acknowledging two things she thought might be on viewers' minds: her Colombian accent and her comely figure.
"Forgive me if you cannot understand what I say," she said during her opening monologue, "and I will forgive you for staring at my chest the whole night."
PHOTOS: On the Set of 'Modern Family'
Vergara embraced her accent, saying it could make anything sound sexy. She demonstrated this power by saying a few particularly unsexy words: gonorrhea, Rick Santorum and New Jersey.
Vergara's accent wasn't a liability during the episode, which saw her primarily playing South American characters. An exception came early in the night, when she did a pretty decent Fran Drescher during an installment of Bein' Quirky with Zooey Deschanel.
Vergara also appeared as a correspondent during a parody of The Hunger Games, which featured Bill Hader as Games character Caesar Flickerman and Fred Armisen as Claudius Templesmith.
In a role reminiscent of Elizabeth Banks' Games character Effie Trinket, Vergara plays a self-obsessed Capitol TV broadcaster. She is on location in the Games arena, pulling contestants from hiding spots left and right. Each young contestant she reveals promptly dies by a competitor's hand. That pattern ends when Vergara's character meets Katniss Everdeen, whom Vergara presses for details about her lovelife. Does Peeta mind that Katniss has a boy back in District 12?

Katniss resolves the situation by sharing some special berries with the oblivious broadcaster. Hader closes the segment with this tagline:
"The Hunger Games is brought to you by Tylenol. 'Spear in your head?' Tylenol."
SNL is new next week, with host Josh Brolin and musical guest Gotye.

I loved the hotel at once when viewing the pictures on letsbookhotel.com, then I liked it even more when right after receiving the booking confirmation I got a note from the owner of the hotel welcoming me heartily and asking me about the time of my arrival and then closer to my arrival they kept on contacting me and checking if everything was ok and if I needed any help with the transfer or any other tips-this was a truly customer-oriented approach which only proved when we arrived. Unfortunat - Anonymous
Easy drive from the airport - hotel was very easy to find. Room was much better than we thought. Light and spacious. Bed was very comfortable. Price was very cheap for a city hotel considering how nice it was. We arrived late and went early so did not have much chance to walk about. However, the hotel is conveniently located a couple hundred yards from the tram stop as well as supermarket, ATM, etc. The staff were friendly and spoke very good English. I would definitely recommend this hotel and - Anonymous
Absolute breath of fresh air!! This hotel really made my trip to Zagreb
special...the staff are ultra nice, attentive, friendly and genuinely
appear to love their jobs. After being on vacation now for 7 weeks in
Europe, and having stayed at many different types of establishment, I
can honestly say my stay at " Zagreb for you" ranks at the top
of my list for accommodation experiences. Nothing was too much trouble,
everything was done with a warm smile and I was made to feel very very
special. I - Anonymous
Reasonably convenient for railway station if you know what you're doing: (Cross road from station entrance, turn left and take escalators down to shopping mall and turn left. Then it's straight south.) Very helpful manager. Room well suited to families with small children including child-scale tables and chairs, and decent kitchen. Good air-conditioning and wi-fi. Altogether comfortable and convenient. - Anonymous
Very nice appartments, very cosy. The stuff is very polite and ready to help.
I liked my stay there. I'll come again.

Bringing to light the critical issues and realities of cancer, from the perspective of the survivor, medical professional and co-survivor.
Our Advocacy in Action video series presents the most vibrant discussions from panels of patients, advocates and health care professionals – captured live from key cancer conferences all around the world. These thoughtful symposiums confront and explore oncology's complicated questions, emerging trends and inspiring solutions in a dynamic format that engages viewers.
Vital Conversations is our collection of interviews and discussions that provide an in-depth look and insightful exchange on the leading cancer topics. We're not just talking here -- we are getting to the heart of the individual, the core of the cancer issue and the most vital information that people need to know.
No patient's life is ever the same after a cancer diagnosis. That's why our series focuses on more than dealing with cancer – these are the remarkable treatment and survivorship stories of the brave and inspiring men and women who are showing all of us how they are focused, determined … and living with cancer.
Leading oncologists at the 2014 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) discuss the theme of the conference: precision medicine; what it means in the treatment of cancer and its promise in potentially unlocking the door to significant advances across cancer types.
As the second most commonly diagnosed blood cancer, multiple myeloma is now often deemed chronic and few people know much about it. What do patients need to know about their treatment options? What about psychosocial care? Or the rising costs of these innovative treatments? Patients, professionals and advocates have a refreshingly candid and most timely discussion.
What words come to mind when you hear "metastatic breast cancer"? What are some of the most common misconceptions about metastatic breast cancer in young women? Where does the young woman with metastatic breast cancer fit into the overall breast cancer community? Young women living with metastatic breast cancer, and women fighting on behalf of those women, come together for an all-too-real and incredibly candid discussion to explore the reality behind the lives of young women living with advanced disease.

I stumbled upon more than one reference to this particular recipe and I think I'm going to give this a shot. For those familiar with this recipe I do have a couple of questions because I am seeing different versions of this recipe when I look around. I plan on a five gallon batch.
First, I have seen two different yeasts for this. One is Wyeast 1056. The other calls for White Labs Cal Ale WLP001. Any real difference here?
Second, one recipe called for 13 lbs 2-row, the other called for 11 lbs.
Third, one called for .75 magnum hops/1.0 goldings-east kent. The other recipe calls for .80 magnum/.50 goldings.
Last, one calls for 60 min mash, the other 75.
As always, any help is appreciated.
1056 and 001 are supposed to be the same strain.
At 70% efficiency, 13 pounds of base grain alone will give you a OG of 1.066 and the 11 pounds will be 1.056. I'm not sure which hop additions went with each recipe but your gravity is going to affect your hop utilization. I don't think it will be too noticeable because based on the information given, the recipes seem relatively close. I'm assuming the EKG addition is a late aroma addition so one recipe will just have a little more hop aroma.
I'm not sure how an additional 15 minutes is going to affect your mash. I wish I could help more but I noticed this thread in the Unanswered Threads section and thought I'd offer my 2 cents and get it bumped.
You are probably seeing two peoples slant on the same recipe. Different efficiencies account for the different grain bills or maybe the second brewer wants a slightly weaker brew,and different types of hops (pellets v flowers) may account for the differnce in amounts though more likely two people disagree on what they like. Don't sweat it, if you haven't a clue, average the amounts and see what happens.
Any brew with Denny Conn's name will have been cannibalised, bastardised and every other ised that is the want of homebrewers, so relax, have a brew, brew what you see fit and make notes of what you did and how it tasted.
I, too stumbled onto this recipe. The one I saw was 13lbs, 60 minute, 1z Magnum, .5z EKG AND bourbon. They called it: Denny Conn's Bourbon Vanilla Imperial Porter. The recipe also called for oak chips(not in the original recipe) Charlie
I've actually been thinking about brewing this soon. As stated earlier the different amounts of base grain are due to different mash efficiencies and wlp001 and 1056 are the same yeast. The different amounts of the magnum hops are probably to compensate for the different AA values of those particular hops. I suppose the different amounts of EKG hops are just the brewer's personal preference on how much finishing hop character he wants. One other major difference I've seen in my research of the recipe is that some call for .5 lb of chocolate malt and others call for 1.25 pounds of chocolate malt. The most recent recipe I've seen from Denny Conn himself calls for 1.25 pounds (I found it on TastyBrew and it is dated from sometime in 2006). I've also heard many people who have made this recipe say that the bourbon comes through pretty strongly so you may consider starting out with a smaller amount and gradually adding it in small increments until it's where you like it. Hope that helps a little.
I am looking at brewing this recipe myself and I think the the difference may be related to the original recipe being for a 6gal batch. The other you have seen may be scaled down to 5 gal. Just a guess, but that 6gal size was throwing me off until a friend just pointed it out.

Rebels' newcomers make good impression
Ole Miss has built enough depth to where it doesn't need its freshmen to come in and play immediately. The talent, though, of the entire incoming class may leave the coaches with no other choice. (August 5, 2014, Page 6)
Rebels open camp with improved depth, talent
Ole Miss' football team is switching things up early in fall camp.

Sources: Fantasia hospitalized for overdose
"American Idol" winner Fantasia Barrino was hospitalized Monday night for a medication overdose, sources tell NewsChannel 36.
Barrino was taken to Carolinas Medical Center-Pineville at about 8:55 p.m. Monday, according to sources.
The sources say doctors at CMC noted that Barrino's condition was not life-threatening.
The sources did not know what type of medication was involved, and it was not known whether the overdose was accidental or intentional.
Barrino has made headlines recently after being named in a lawsuit and accused of making a sex tape with a married man.
NewsChannel 36 reported on Friday that Barrino was named in court documents involving Paula and Antwuan Cook. A complaint filed Wednesday by Paula Cook says her husband began having an affair with Barrino in August 2009.
The complaint references a sex tape as one possible element to prove an affair. Court documents say the "Husband and Ms. Barrino have at times recorded their illicit sexual activity."
On Monday, Barrino's manager released a statement to TMZ, saying Barrino is "certain that she is not responsible for the deterioration of Cook's marriage."
Her manager did not mention the alleged sex tape.

Sooooooo tiny - I was really disappointed in this - maybe a lipstick tube and mascara but not much more will fit in there - also the mirror is fogged and no amount of cleaning will clear it - can't see a thing - way to much money for this - it is going back!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
