İstanbul since 1453. Not invasion, we call it FETİH. Will be İstanbul till the end of world.
Yes, stuff that happens in history. So, why the hell you barking for Silivri. Life goes on. But life will go on so hard for coup attempters and lovers. Or we can say that Life Will Go On in SİLİVRİ for coup attempters and lovers. We do not write the history, we act and make the history.Never Again.AslaBirDaha.
Love this song from the election campaign. It's a great description of what AK Party is all about:
erdogan said today : " chp's begging to israel starts to pay off.(referring to the economist's artickle). we thought that chp was only a supporter group for domestic mafia but now we understand they're also connected to the international gang too. "
akp is very intolerant when they're critisized, yet they embrace every praise coming their way.
aslanbir daha
in none of the coups which happened since 1960 has the army shot at normal citizens.
they arrest whomever they want, and all the citizens applaud. That is how a coup is made in Turkey.
If the military had wanted to make a coup in 2003, they would have made a coup in 2003.
Nobody would have opposed.
Everything else you hear are tales.
to cankad81
You can find my answers to your questions next to your sentences.
I am curious, what is your job?
Will the answer change anything for you? Assume that i am a coup attempter and coup lover hunter.
And do you mind putting all your ideas in one comment without repeating? That way, you won't have to write 70 comments out of the total 154...
Do i need to get your permission how i write my comments? What happened to freedom to choose to write one or more comments.
I do appreciate what AKP has done in the last decade economically but my question is to all AKP supporters.
Why don't you go and ask your local AK Parti office?
Please answer me rationally because turkish people support their parties the same way they support their soccer team. (Objectivity near zero)... That is true for chp supporters. When you a chp supporter, why he votes for chp. He says that his grandfather voted for chp. His family has been supporting chp for decades. Did you get the reality?
Don't you think RTE is applying pressure to the opposition media via tax increases or statements?
Do you know how much Aydın doğan stole from his companies shareholders from the importing newsprint papers and other materials? Aydın doğan has companies both in uk and tax haven islands. He is going down big time.
Do you think opposition newspapers like Hurriyet, MIlliyet are organising a coup d'etat behind secret doors?
Yes.read mr Birands last article.
Do you think every media or people should be able to express their opinions freely without getting pressure?
Yes.But their opinions not their hatred to legal government.
Do you think it's democratic to hint some threats to businessmen by using your power (inanc kirac) because he showed sympathy to the opposition party? That guy is a coup lover. Alcopone was also claiming that he was a bussinesman.
Don't you think it's a little weird not to show concrete evidences or not to make a formal statement about what the accusations are when several journalists are in prison?
All concrete evidences are in the hands of those judges.
How about trying to destroy copies of book written by one of this journalists? I mean seriuously, don't you find that the article of Economist has some kind of sense?
Those books are promoting hatred towards peacefull people. Those books are the same kind of books that promotes nazism and termination of jews.
Do you think it's democratic to put men with your opinions all over the bureaucracy whether it's the government, universities, basically anywhere where you consolidate your power? Teamwork is the modern day strategy for efficiency.
Don't you think people would get a little suspicious over AKP forgetting too much power? Stability is important but you also need some balance of power... Who do you think that you are to measure how much power a political party must have. The only authority on this issue is voters. They decide that when they vote. Respect people's choice.
Please answer to my comment with rational arguments, mostly by answering my questions...
Now i think i answered all your questions.
don't forget the invasion of constantinople in 1453. the city was plundered, the ladies raped.
the emperor murdered.
are you going to put them on trial?
or maybe that is the sort of stuff which happens in history, and life goes on ..
I wonder if "the economist" is aware of the some facts about the party it recommends for voting. First of all, CHP's new leader KK came into being by dirty tricks of a deep state involved secret network. He may look like one, but he has little or nothing in common with genuine Gandhi's ethical values. For sure he knows how to provoke his political opponents, especially Mr. Erdogan. KK is still a junior with lack of experience and management skills. He has a lot to learn from Erdogan (if he is a careful observer of course).
A bunch of academics he has enrolled in CHP do not have any experience in public service, being juniors in politics. It is also a fact that at least one of those academics who are shortlisted candidates for CHP is serving time in jail due to accusations of being part of the secret network. According to investigative newspaper articles (Sabah,Taraf, Zaman), it has been documented two days ago that the core group including the top man of the army was involved in attempts to overthrow the AKP government. These people traditionally vote for CHP and, in their own way, act as militant supporters of traditional CHP. So, why should the people vote for a party which enjoy such a support while having nothing or little to do with democracy.
I can't type everything thats on my mind here, because of the possibility of being imprisoned with conspiracy charges here in Turkey.There are thousands of people in jails in Turkey for opposing the ruling party akp. ( i don't type akp's name with capital letters. my apoligies... i have zero respect for their totalatarian policies and attempts of public supression. )

The people killed in dersim were both turkish and kurdish alevis. We do not ask for revenge. We ask for justice. Criminals will be trialed. chp will be trialed for the crimes that they did like nazis in germany. We will all see together.
National Socialist bureaucracy, and their advocate tribe
want a republic closed to world, like North Korea.
So that they can preserve their privileges over common citizen.
So that they can easily push people around.
Therefore, they continuesly accuse AK Party of being local puppet of USA, EU, even Israel.
They are sort Don Quixote charging against wind mills of so called imperialism.
Because AK Party integrated Turkey into global free markets, and increased the wealth.
Something foreign, and new to National Socialist bureaucracy, and their advocate tribe to comprehend, and to cope with.

All coup lovers and leaders will be put into trial. We may even start from ittahat terraki members to current encümeni danis members. Yes, we will trial them. This is not revenge. This is justice. Long live SİLİVRİ for coup lovers. Long live hell for oppressors. Those generals could not accomplish their objectives in 2003. You know why? Let me tell you tahir. Generals do not have any power on mehmetçik to shoot at citizens anymore. They realized that if they attempt for a coup mehmetçik Will address each bullet to those guys who attempt for a coup. Long live MEHMETÇİK. Go and ask that çetin doğan, why and from what they scared of? They saw that regular citizens will hit them with real balyoz :).

Please answer to my comment with rational arguments, mostly by answering my questions...
The recommendation of the Economist for Turkish citizens to vote for the main opposition party CHP in the imminent elections beggars belief: especially so as it contradicts the whole thrust of the preceding article which highlights and supports the positive democratic achievements of the ruling AK party: courageous, dangerous and notable ones. Is this perverse stance based on mischief, ignorance-can hardly be so, or the influence of some sort of conspiracy of "secular" right wing intrusion, allergic-however irrationally -to any kind political policy or principle underpinned by regious belief. The AKP goverment of Turkey, for all its faults, and all the concerns about a 'sinister' long term agenda(anxiety about the equality of women with men in all fields is probably a reasonable one) has put democracy and freedom on a higher plane, something all other goverments have failed to do, or, when they have striven to do so, the military has brutally intervened and crushed them. Since the coup d'état by the "Young Turk" generals in 1910, crushing the 1908 joyous and widespread approval of the reintroduction of the Tanzimat reforms across the Ottoman empire, and across race and religion, the Turkish military has held sway over goverment with a deeply nationalist,racist and reactionary mindset,committed to sabotage with force any "threat" of the rise of democratic law, rule, pluralism, freedom and justice. CHP has supported the military dictatorship unfailingly, and represents the long running satus quo: rule by the totally arbitrary power and greed of the elite, the corruption of the judiciary and most of the bureaucracy, and not least the self serving politicians who have gladly robbed the poor-while promising them the earth. Ironic as it may be for 'secularists' (not to be confused with 'democrats')this 'Islamist' goverment has promoted democracy-in real terms and actions, has delivered on its promises by and large, hence the massive support of the common people for it, and a widenig base and appreciation across professional and commercial classes. To vote for CHP, is to turn a blind eye to the dreadful, multiple horrors inflicted by the military and its minions for over a century, and notably for the last twenty five years. It is to deny the Turkish citizen his basic democratic rights. For the Economist to conspire in this is a disgrace, and calls into question its editorial principles and ethics. To fall for CHP promises of democratic intent-to suddenly make good- is either naive or disingenuous or both. Thank heavens the Economist's perverted intrusion into the affairs of Turkey, a country at last claiming democracy for real, against formidable odds, will count for nought, except to discredit its reputation as a publication worthy of attention. The bias is foul.
aslan about the dersim massacre
revenging the dersim massacre is a good idea. very godd idea to tell the kurds they should get revenge. I am sure that will do wonders for the political climate.
shorten peoples lives for sure.
while you are at it do not forget to revenge the crucifixion of jesus. while it was not the CHP it could have been. it is just the sort of stuff they would do, don't you think so?
but wait a minute.
the only people in Silivri Jail are the ones who made the 2003 coup.
2003 coup?
I don't remember a 2003 coup.
Has anyone heard of a 2003 coup?
There was no coup in 2003.
So why are these people in jail?
you are right that the people who made the 1960 coup should be put in Silivri jail.
While you are at it do not forget to put the people who made the Babiali coup of 23 January 1913 in jail.
Last but not least you will need to arrest and hang Chief of Staff Huseyin Avni Pasha, who overthrew Sultan Abdulaziz on 15 June 1876.
Down with Huseyin Avni Pasha!
Long live Silivri jail!
So lame, pathetic indeed; since when does a magazine of high prestige like Economist recommend a country's electorate to vote for a party of their choice? I am really taken aback. They are good at analyzing social events but what is this??? As for the validity of their argument, who else is to stand against the junta? CHP, who have conspicuous ties with dark powers, definitely not for the people. Kicdaroglu, who I would not even trust with my bike, let alone my country, has more to learn to govern a state. What does the economist know about those journos that we do not know? Can a journalist do whatever they want?
By the way Dersim massacre was made by chp. mr. kemal is from dersim, till now we have not heard anything about dersim massacre from him. He did not even criticizes chp actions against dersim. He claims that he is leading the new chp. What happened to so called old chp? What a trick? He is a self-hatred person. He forgot his background for the sake of becoming the leader of chp. chp used nazi tacticts against the citizens of dersim. We all know how inonu was barking when Menderes was taken to Yassıada. "hang him" "hang him". Coup lovers.Shame on you. Turks will not forget Menderes. We will not also forget chp's and inonu's wrong doings. The 1960 coup will be also put into trial soon. Long live SİLİVRİ for coup lovers.

Do we have to get your permission to make comment on this article?
You are lying about that prime minister divided Turkey in different dimensions. We have more solidarity between our citizens. Citizens who fight against coups and coup lovers will vote for prime minister.
National-Socialist bureaucracy,
and their advocate tribe has one story, since the day they lost the firs multi party election in 1950 in Republics history.
Since that day, their extension in the parliament, CHP, has no hope of winning at ballot box.
And since that day, they have only one argument for civilization:
POLITICAL WILL of COMMON CITIZEN will DESTROY THIS COUNTRY.
and common citizen has been laughing at them since that day.

Charlie D. Tillman (1861-1943)
Charlie Tillman, who called Atlanta home for most of his career, was a pioneer composer, performer, and publisher of southern gospel music. During the almost 60 years that he was involved in the music business, he wrote some 100 songs, published 22 songbooks, and toured extensively as a song director with several evangelists, one of whom was his father.
Born in Tallassee, Alabama, in 1861, Charlie Davis Tillman exhibited early in life a better-than-average talent and inclination for music. His parents were evangelists, and he grew up traveling with them and taking an active role in the
The best-known and most enduring of Tillman's songs is "Life's Railway to Heaven." Written in 1890, this song remains a favorite among country music and bluegrass music performers. "Life's Railway to Heaven" was a collaborative effort between Tillman, who wrote the music, and a Baptist minister in Atlanta named M. E. Abbey (or Abby), who supplied the lyrics.
While attending an African American camp meeting in South Carolina, Tillman heard the congregation singing a song called "My Old Time Religion." He quickly wrote down the words and music, revised them later at home, introduced the song to white audiences, and published it in 1891 in one of his songbooks. "Gimme That Old Time Religion" soon became a standard in the canon of spiritual music.
In 1893 Tillman found a poem titled "A Dream" in a Salvation Army publication. He set it to music and published it in a songbook under the title "The Judgment." Bearing the alternate title "The Great Judgment Morning," the song subsequently was published extensively in southern gospel songbooks and recorded by numerous country music artists.
One of Tillman's best-known songbooks was The Assembly Book, published in 1927. The book was adopted by the state school systems of Georgia and South Carolina for use in school assembly programs.
Tillman also performed on early radio broadcasts including Atlanta's WSB station. In 1930 the National Broadcasting Company devoted an entire program to the performance of his songs. With one of his daughters accompanying him on piano, he recorded for the Columbia label.
Tillman died in 1943 and is buried in Atlanta's Westview Cemetery beneath a monument engraved with the words and music of a line from "Life's Railway to Heaven." The Gospel Music Association, based in Nashville, Tennessee, inducted Tillman into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in 1993.

Iraq War
Abercrombie voted against the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 that started the Iraq War.[1]
Abercrombie has been a strong opponent of the Iraq war and has called for near-immediate removal of troops from the country [1], as well as voted for the non-binding resolution opposing a troop increase in Iraq [2]. The war, he remarked during the floor debate on this resolution, "is a catastrophe conceived in ideological zeal, cloaked in misinformation and administered with breathtaking incompetence. It is an outrage that we have not had a single policy in Iraq worthy of our men and women in uniform.... We owe it to all the brave men and women who have already sacrificed so much -- over 3,000 of them who made the ultimate sacrifice -- to steer our country on a course that will bring our troops home safely, take care of them and their families when they return and end this war." [3] He has criticized the use of Israeli bullets in Iraq and Afghanistan. [4] Recently, he introduced the War Profiteering Act of 2007 which would make profiteering into a felony crime. [5]
- Main article: Congressional actions on the Iraq War
Criticism of 2007 emergency war funding bill
In February 2007, Abercrombie blasted the Pentagon for requesting emergency funds for items that he viewed as not immediately necessary to the war effort. Some of the supplementals were to include; replacing two Air Force fighter aircraft with Joint Strike Fighters that would not be operational for at least three years, $14 billion for new armored vehicles, and $131 million to buy 90,880 pairs of night-vision goggles. [6]
Abercrombie questioned whether these requests were emergency items or something the Pentagon should prioritize in its regular budget submissions. He stated that the 2007 war supplementals will not be another "blank check." [7]
Environmental record
For more information on environmental legislation, see the Energy and Environment Policy Portal
As far as the environment is concerned, Abercrombie claims to "take pride in [his] decisions supporting conservation and resource protection." [8] However, his voting record has not always been fully endorsed by environmental groups (he votes with them, on average, about 70% of the time). [9] He voted against drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge [10]
Transparency record
Support for gun control
Abercrombie cosponsored H.R. 1312 (Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2005) on July 28, 2005.[2]
- Main article: U.S. gun legislation
Abercrombie's record indicates that he is supportive of most issue positions commonly held by liberal Democrats. He is pro-choice, and has voted against a ban on partial birth abortion. [11]. He voted with the interests of NARAL and Planned Parenthood 100% between 2000-2006. [12].
Voting rights
He has voted for bills designed to make it easier for Americans to vote, such as the "Motor voter" bill [13].
Civil liberties
He has also advocated strongly for civil liberties; his voting record is supported by both the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and American Library Association [14]. He has also voted against a constitutional amendment to limit marriage to being between one man and one woman [15]. Notably, he was one of only nine representatives not to cast a vote for or against the USA PATRIOT ACT in 2001. [16] In 2005, he voted against the extension of the act, calling it "a blank check to trample civil liberties." [17]]
Abercrombie supports universal health care--In 2007, he signed on as a co-sponsor of H.R. 676, which would establish a national health insurance program. [18] He did support and vote for No Child Left Behind, as many other Democrats did.
Reparations for Japanese Latin Americans
Abercrombie cosponsored The Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Latin Americans of Japanese Descent Act in the 110th Congress which would establish a commission that would determine the facts and circumstances involving the relocation, internment and deportation of Japanese Latin Americans.[3]

Neil Abercrombie was born June 26, 1938, in Buffalo, New York. Abercrombie was educated at at Union College in Schenectady, New York. He obtained his B.A. in Sociology in 1959 and his M.A. in Sociology in 1964. He moved to Honolulu, Hawaii, to become a public school teacher at various elementary and high schools in the Hawaii State Department of Education. He also pursued work as a probation officer for the Hawaii State Judiciary. While teaching, Abercrombie studied at the University of Hawaii at Manoa where he obtained his Ph.D. in American Studies in 1974. With his doctorate, Abercrombie became a sociologist and joined the University of Hawaii System faculty as a professor.
Abercrombie's first political campaign in 1970 was for the Democratic nomination to run for the U.S. Senate. Unsuccessful, Abercrombie ran for the Hawaii State House of Representatives where he served from 1975 to 1979. He moved to the upper chamber by winning a seat in the Hawaii State Senate, where he served from 1979 to 1986. When Cecil Heftel resigned from Congress to run for Governor of Hawaii, Abercrombie entered the race for the Democratic nomination to replace Heftel and won. He was elected to Congress in the following special election, serving from September 20, 1986, to January 3, 1987; he was an unsuccessful candidate for re-election in 1986. Abercrombie ran for and won, a seat of the Honolulu City Council where he served from 1988 to 1990. At the end of his council tenure, Abercrombie once again ran for Congress and won and was re-elected in successive elections from 1992 through 2004.
Abercrombie and Richard Hoyt co-authored Blood of Patriots (ISBN 0312861664), "a work of fiction focusing on the role of money in electoral politics." [19]
2006 elections
In 2006, Republicans nominated Richard Hough to face Abercrombie in his November 2006 bid for reelection. (See U.S. congressional elections in 2006) [20] Abercrombie retained his seat.
2008 elections
Abercrombie is running for re-election in the 2008 congressional elections.[4]

Homemade Apple Pectin Question
I was wondering if homemade apple pectin had to strictly be made with green apples or can I make it from the core and peels of different apples? I got a few pounds of braeburn apples in my co-op basket and since I don't really eat apples whole, I've been making applesauce and different things with the apples and have cores and peels.
Also, if I can make homemade apple pectin, do I just substitute it with the store bought pectin 1:1 in recipes?
I've made apple pectin for the first time last August. From what I had read, you want unripe apples to get the best pectin. So that is what I used - unripe apples from my old apple tree.
When I get my bushels of apples in the fall, and am making tons of apple sauce, I save the peelings and cores and I make apple syrup. I follow the directions for peach honey, except I use apples, and I boil it to syrup consistency instead of honey consistency.
Here is a link that might be useful: Directions for Peach Honey
Here is a link to one of the previous discussions about this. I have never made or used it but I know from reading here about it that no, it isn't a 1:1 exchange with regular pectin. Much more of the homemade is required. How much appears to depend on the info source.
You'll find some recommendations in this discussion.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Trading Practices and Errors When SEC-registered investment advisors conduct annual audits of firm policies and procedures, they should pay close attention to trading practices. Though usually not required to, state-registered advisors should look at their trading practices and revise policies that do not fully protect clients.
- Where Are We Headed? The ultimate compliance goal is to help ensure that everyone associated with an advisory firm acts ethically at all times. Advisors and RIAs should do the right thing, even when regulators are not looking over their shoulders.
FINRA board member Joel Blumenschein has resigned as he was recently fined $30,000 and suspended by FINRA for allegedly failing to supervise one of his company's brokers, Gary Gossett.
The complaint against Blumenschein, president of Freedom Investors, claimed that Gossett made "a series of unsuitable penny stock trades in the retirement account of a customer of limited means" without the customer's permission.
FINRA described Freedom Investors' oversight system as "so inadequate that Blumenschein was unable to provide a consistent or coherent description of it." FINRA also claimed in the settlement that "his testimony, under oath, was at times both evasive and contradictory, thus highlighting the system's inadequacies."
Tracy Stoneman of Stoneman Law Firm in Westcliffe, Colo., said in a statement that she has long felt that FINRA and its predecessor, the National Association of Securities Dealers, have been "soft" on their members. She penned a book in 2002 titled "Brokerage Fraud: What Wall Street Doesn't Want you to Know," in which she criticized the regulators for being incapable of properly supervising their own members because of the "conflict in not wanting to bite the hand that feeds it."
Stoneman, who's about to write another book that she says will "have even harsher criticism of the regulators," said that the recent FINRA board member sanction is a perfect example of a serious problem in the upper ranks of FINRA "when board members participate in the same wrongful activity that FINRA is charged with supervising."

Seal in Veal Reduction with Sour Cherries: recipe
Food reporter Michele Henry follows the seal hunt from ice floe to plate in the April 20, Toronto Star Life section. Watch online for the soon-to-be-published ebook.Searing seals in seal's flavour

Luc Jomphe tosses a curl of duck fat into the hot pan and, clutching the handle, swirls it around.
"It's not complicated," he says, of cooking seal. "It's just like duck breast."
With a toss of salt and pepper, Jomphe seasons the fresh meat he bought at Boucherie Spécialisée Côte a Côte, a tiny butcher-shop located in Cap-aux-Meuleshe, in Îles-de-la-Madeleine that specializes in seal. To place a special order from this specialty shop email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 418-986-3322.
He lays each piece in the pan for a quick sear on all sides. Then, it goes into the oven for five minutes. He takes it out and presses a finger into one piece. It's dense but soft and springs to the touch, just like a well-cooked steak.
"It's got a creamy texture," he says, with his mouth full.
Seal in Veal Reduction with Sour Cherries
1 tbsp (15 mL) duck fat
1 pound (454 grams) seal filet, cut against the grain into thick strips
1/2 cup (125 mL) veal stock, heated
1/2 tbsp (7 mL) honey
1/4 cup (60 mL) pitted sour red cherries, sold at Pusateri's Fine Foods
Salt and pepper
In an ovenproof fry pan over high heat, melt 1/2 tablespoon of duck fat until it bubbles.
Place seal in pan and sear until brown, about 15 seconds per side. Place pan with seal into preheated 400F/200C oven for five minutes, or until meat is firm but springs lightly to the touch.
Remove seal from pan. Season with salt and pepper.
Place pan over medium-high heat and deglaze with veal stock, scraping bottom with a wooden spoon. Once stock boils, toss in honey and sour cherries and reduce, about 5 to 7 minutes. Pour over cut seal.
Makes 2 to 4 servings.

Originally written on Celtics Life | Last updated 11/5/14
If you missed the game last night, you missed an amazing display of Celtic Pride in the 4th quarter. Down 26 points with just under 10 minutes to go in the 4th period, the Celtics season seemed sure to be over. Boston had been outplayed for the first three quarters in every way imaginable. Then, little by little, they found a way to come back. Led by Avery Bradley and an exhausted Jeff Green, the Celtics managed to cut their 26 point hole into just 4. I tip my hat to Bradley. Felton had dominated Bradley all series, but AB almost literally flipped his power switch to "on" in the 4th quarter of Game 6. His defense and hustle plays were incredible. Even though the Celtics lost the game and their season is over, they went down swinging hey-makers and that is definitely something we all can be proud of.

October 30, 2001
The new parish priest of Shrewsbury, Father Ailnoth, proves to be most unpopular with his parishioners. After refusing to baptize the illegitimate baby of a prostitute, he's found dead in the river; unsurprisingly, there is no shortage of murder suspects. Cadfael's (Derek Jacobi) subsequent investigation fails to expose the murderer, but a new clue presents itself when he finds the priest's old skull cap on a nail underneath the bridge.

Which connector do I need use the 27 iMac with a 2008 MacBookPro?
- Asked by Claus M

1 Answer from the Community
it would depend on how you want to connect them.
1. You want to access the data on your macbook pro through your iMac
Use a firewire cable, when you turn on your MBP, hold down the 't' key, your MBP will then appear as a drive on your iMac
2. You (for some reason) want to use the iMac as a second screen for your MBP
Just use your iMac (having connected your MBP as listed in point 1 you will be able to access any files you need from either computer through the iMac)
if you want a second screen that you can use for BOTH your iMac and your MBP, buy the mini display port to DVI adaptor from apple and a good monitor OR fork out for the apple cinema display that will plug straight into both computers (but not at the same time) FYI if you buy a 3rd party monitor, you will also need to buy a cable to run audio, as mini DP does not transfer audio (the aple display does this through the USB plug)

My best friend and I have just returned from 5 days in this little piece of Paradise! Eriyadu Island Resort consistently exceeded our expectations throughout our entire stay!
Before this trip, I made it a point not to read the negative reviews this resort has received because I didn't want it to sway my decision and this has got to be one of the best decisions that I have ever made.
The island is not for people that would like to party every evening or for those that are used to 5 star accommodations. The rooms are basic but very clean (they cleaned our rooms twice a day, including the turn down service each night). The food at the restaurant caters to all tastes so you can rest assured that you won't leave hungry. You can spend hours at the bar on the deck. The staff are friendly and always keen to help.
Because this island is so small, it is very easy to bond with other guests. This made our stay even better as we met some lovely people who were there purely because of their love for the ocean.
The house reef is unbelievable and out of this world. For someone who is terrified of the water, snorkeling at this resort gave me the opportunity to experience the beautiful corals and sea life without having to swim too far. The people at the Dive Centre are extremely professional.
Overall, this has been one of the best vacations that I have ever had. If and when I do return to the Maldives, I will definitely be staying at the Eriyadu Island Resort again!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- The bounty of an exorbitant coral reef, an adobe laying atop a tropical island & a gold tinted stretch of your private beach while the day slumbers into the dusk. In the heart of the Indian Ocean, on the end of Malé atoll, lies the island resort, Eriyadhu. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Expedia, Agoda, Hotels.com and Travelocity so you can book your Eriyadu Island Resort reservations with confidence. We help millions of travelers each month to find the perfect hotel for both vacation and business trips, always with the best discounts and special offers.

Epic matches, breathtaking grounds, special events and friendly service have come to define the Family Circle Cup experience, and the 2015 Cup offers all of that and more! We hope you enjoy the best that women's tennis has to offer as you stroll the grounds, enjoy the company of good friends and make memories for a lifetime.
There's always so much to do when you're not watching world-class tennis. Check below for a detailed list of every activity the Family Circle Cup has to offer tournament-goers. We hope you'll celebrate 43 years with us!
Join us on the Grand Lawn to be a part of Family Circle Cup history as player names are drawn out of the Champions trophy to determine who will battle it out on the courts! Interact with WTA players and help pull the name chips from the Cup!
The fun starts on Saturday and continues through Sunday afternoon. Adults and kids will experience two fun-filled days of balloon art, face painting, magicians, jump castles, climbing wall and much more. We'll also be celebrating Easter on Sunday with an egg hunt sponsored by Daniel Island Property Owners Association. Free admission for kids 15 and under, and adults are only $10.
Join us for a special day of tennis with your best girls! For the cost of a regular Tuesday ticket, you'll enjoy giveaways, shopping and dining, all while watching hours of world-class tennis. So, rally up all of your favorite ladies and join us.
Ladies Day Ticket Includes:
2015 Family Circle Cup Parking
A new parking plan is in place for the 2015 Family Circle Cup. Once on Daniel Island, follow signs closely to arrive at the appropriate parking lot. Parking in Lots 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 require a Parking Hangtag that is distributed prior to the event.
The Family Circle Cup and MUSC Health have teamed up to support "Pink Out Night for the Cure" to benefit the Lowcountry Affiliate of Susan G. Komen. This event will take place Wednesday, April 8 from 7 to 10 p.m. at the Family Circle Stadium on Daniel Island. Gates will open at 5 p.m. The Family Circle Cup encourages fans who attend the evening session to wear pink and help "pink out" the stadium. For each person who enters wearing pink, the Family Circle Cup and MUSC Health will donate $1 to the Komen Lowcountry Affiliate. Survivors wearing their 2014 Survivor Race shirt will receive a free general admission ticket.
"This is about so much more than raising breast cancer awareness — it's about giving hope to our neighbors in need," says Lucy Spears, mission programs manager of Komen Lowcountry. "The money that's raised at Pink Out Night will be used in our Lowcountry mission programs and for supporting community health grants, education and advocacy."
The preliminary main player draw for the Family Circle Cup is officially complete for the 43rd tournament, April 4 – 12. The world-class player field forming for the Family Circle Cup on Daniel Island is headed up by eight of the top 20 players in the world. Five additional players will join the field via Wild Card entry, to be announced at a later date.
The Family Circle Cup's 56-player draw is made up of 43 direct entries into the tournament, five wild cards and eight qualifiers.
"The depth in our player field is what we strive for each year," said Eleanor Adams, Tournament Manager for the Family Circle Cup. "From top-ranked players like Ekaterina Makarova and our champion Andrea Petkovic, to the next generation of talent, we are certain the diversity of players within the field this year will bring fierce and entertaining competition on the courts."
Highlights from the Main Draw include:
- 20 countries represented in the international player field
- Eight players in the top 20 in the world
- Four past Family Circle Cup Champions: Andrea Petkovic (2014), Samantha Stosur (2011), Sabine Lisicki (2009) and Jelena Jankovic (2007)
- Nine Americans in the field
- Local Charleston player Shelby Rogers qualifies for the 2015 Family Circle Cup main draw
- Madison Keys, top ranked American player in the field, currently World No. 18 after reaching the Australian Open semifinals
At the top of the Family Circle Cup player field is Ekaterina Makarova. 2015 will mark her first time playing Charleston in five years. She broke into the WTA singles top 10 for the first time in her career in January 2015, stemming from a standout 2014 season that included a singles quarterfinals appearance at Wimbledon, and her first Grand Slam singles semifinal at the US Open.
Current Family Circle Cup champion Andrea Petkvoic had a major comeback during the 2013-2014 season. After her Family Circle Cup win, Petkovic reached her first career Grand Slam semifinal at the French Open. She went on to reach the semifinals in Stanford, before taking home an additional WTA title at Bad Gadstein. Petkovic started the 2015 season with a win in Antwerp in February 2015.
Safarova will play Charleston for her fifth time in 2015. After making the finals in both singles and doubles in 2012, losing to Serena in singles before taking the doubles win, she has gone on to make the Family Circle Cup's quarterfinals the last two years. Safarova reached an additional four quarterfinals following the 2014 Family Circle Cup, as well as the semifinals at Wimbledon and Moscow. Most recently, she won the title in Doha in February 2015.
Rounding out the top-four in Charleston's player field is Sara Errani. This year's tournament will be her third time playing the Family Circle Cup. Errani reached the quarterfinals at two Grand Slams in 2014, the French and US Open, as well as the finals in Rome and Paris. Errani won her first title of 2015 in Rio de Janeiro.
Main Draw to Date:
The Family Circle Cup is proud to announce East Shore Athletic Club (ESAC) as our "Official Athletic Club" sponsor for the 2015 tournament. ESAC has 12 locations throughout the Charleston area and strives to offer classes and services to accommodate all their members' fitness needs. It is committed to bringing extraordinary life-changing experiences by offering a wide variety of fitness services.
As the "Official Athletic Club Sponsor", ESAC will provide a custom gym on-site during the Family Circle Cup for our players. The 26'x 26' Family Circle Cup player workout facility will include ESAC's state-of-art treadmills, upright bikes, recumbent bikes, stretching mats, resistance bands, fitness ladders, foam rollers, jump ropes, free weights and medicine balls.
Do you have what it takes to belt out the National Anthem in front of thousands? Five lucky singers will have the opportunity to show off their vocal talent at the Family Circle Cup on April 7th, 8th, 10th, 11th and 12th.
For the fifth year, The Family Circle Cup, in partnership with Cumulus Radio, is collecting online video submissions to narrow down the search for five all-star singers.
The Family Circle Cup tennis tournament has made its 2015 mission to grow the game of tennis, starting with its junior fans. In partnership with SunTrust, kids 15 and under will receive free admission all week to the Family Circle Cup, April 4 – 12, 2015, in Charleston, SC on Daniel Island. In addition every junior that takes advantage of the free ticket will be provided one free training day from MWTennis during the year at the Family Circle Tennis Center. The training sessions will include on-court match play, technique and fitness training.
"It's important for our tournament to create a program to inspire juniors to get out and play the game of tennis, and to expand that relationship beyond the nine days of the tournament," said Bob Moran, Family Circle Cup Tournament Director. "We want the Family Circle Cup and the Family Circle Tennis Center to become a vehicle for kids to fall in love with the sport all yearlong. SunTrust continues to be a fantastic partner to the Family Circle Cup and the Charleston community. This gesture shows how committed they are to making a difference."
