ur opinions...
Your question doesn't make any sense.
Are you talking about what kind of weapon a mental controller should use? Or are you asking what powers should a mental controller use?
You think you know, but you don't know anything at all.
.... skillz... about "Mental" controller.... so that means .. not gagets... and that also would tell you that its in the cat of Skill or choices from THAT SKILL TREE....
anyways... you need at least 2 Controller type moves... I went telekinisis... I have barrage and push and basic.. beem.
what do you wanna do? gear for pvp or pve? b/c i can tell you 3 different builds for this, one for each and a middle ground for the well rounded types.
.... skillz... about "Mental" controller.... so that means .. not gagets... and that also would tell you that its in the cat of Skill or choices from THAT SKILL TREE....
Cat of Skill? You don't even make any sense.
People wonder why they suck at this game and get owned by other players and mobs. Having a grasp of terminology would probably help. But that would be too easy now wouldn't it?
Look, genius. Skill points only refer to one thing: *gasp* skills! Which are related to weapons onry. I've never come across anyone in-game or in this forum or DCUO's who called their powers skills. And if someone does, they're doing it wrong.
Telekinesis and Illusion do not use skill points. They require POWER points. These are considered POWER ABILITIES and not skills. Skills are what you use when it comes to your WEAPONS.
Why am I not surprised of all people I have to spell it out to you?
anyways... you need at least 2 Controller type moves... I went telekinisis... I have barrage and push and basic.. beem.
And this is why your controller fails.
You think you know, but you don't know anything at all.
"mental controller?"....ask my mother in law
"its a bird....its a plane....its.......nope, just a bird"
Gawd your a Fool..
Skill Tree... you clown...
He needs at least 2 controller type moves.... as in 2 move or more that give refesh or regen there power bar... how is that wrong?
3 set builds you can make... one for PVE , one for PVP or one that mixes and matchs Different moves.
And Dbag who said He sucked, or I sucked or You sucked at controller?
Tomo before and if and when you respond, Shut your gawd poo filledouth and go get your Char name and sever... i'll meet and match you, dont matter hero or villian... before you talk poo... about who is good and who is bad with out even knowing, what anyones stats are. You are a Fool.
Spell it out for me? some guy asks what are good skills to use for MENTAL Controller... and your like ... " OMG BBQQ, THAT DONT MAKE NO SENSE" and jump all over him... but were the ones who needs it spelled out... WOW...
btw for the admin and other grammer nazi's...

Deadly fighting grips Syria as UN ends mission
Published on Aug 20, 2012 8:06 PM
ALEPPO, Syria (AFP) - Deadly fighting rocked the Syrian city at the heart of the uprising on Monday as rebels doggedly resisted a regime onslaught launched in key northern hub of Aleppo a month ago, activists said.
At least 32 people were killed, including two children in shelling in Daraa, the birthplace of the revolution, a watchdog said, as the United Nations brought an end to its troubled observer mission in the country.
New international envoy Lakhdar Brahimi, who has said he is not confident of being able to restore peace, warned on Sunday that it was now a matter of ending rather than avoiding a civil war after 17 months of bloodshed.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported continued fighting Monday on the second day of Eid al-Fitr, the holiday celebrated by Muslims around the world to mark the end of the holy month of Ramadan. It said clashes erupted between rebels and government troops in the southern city of Daraa after several areas were shelled, killing 15 people, including two children.

Rachana Dubey tracks the trials and tribulations of the city's paparazzi.
Working at unearthly hours, flogging "scoop" photos to publications which pay peanuts for candid pictures, and scorned by the glitterati – whom they trail from five-star hotel lobbies to beach bungalow parties – the Mumbai paparazzi soldiers on.
Most celebrities pretend to be indifferent or even harassed, but if the thousand flashbulbs don't pop, the same stars would down more whisky sours, boggled by the thought of losing their popularity.
Jagdish Aurangabadkar, who has been in the flashbiz for more than 30 years says his profession has been overcrowded by the print and electronic media boom. His brothers, Ram and Shyam, were film photographers, too, and were respected by the film industry.
"But today," the surviving Aurangabadkar complains, "Many newcomers are spoiling the name of the photo-journalist community. They even take pictures of stars picking their nose or surprise them in the toilet rooms."
According to a photographer, who requests anonymity, "A colleague followed Feroz Khan to the toilet..the actor was a bit high..and when my friend tried to click him with his pants down, the actor whipped out a gun and threatened to shoot both of us. We fled from the spot."
Quite a few of the freelance photographers say that they are cautious of clicking Salman Khan. Ever since some photos of his nuzzling Aishwarya Rai appeared in a film magazine some six years ago, he has been particularly "rude."
Neither Aurangabadkar nor Yogen Shah, who have been on the beat for the last 12 years, approve of the word "paparazzi", saying that that they do not encroach upon the privacy of celebrity lives.
"The only time I did that, I got into trouble," Aurangabadkar rewinds to the 1970s when he had snapped Vinod Mehra and Moushumi Chatterjee with the matka king Ratanlal Khatri. The henchmen of Khatri surrounded the photographer who had to surrender his film roll.
Rakesh Dave, a recent entrant to the paparazzi brigade, believes, "You need a sher ka kaleja to survive in this trade. The hours are long and uncertain, the pay is lousy and the photographers with their own studios and glamour lighting get all the bhaav while we are considered downmarket."
He points that most freelance photo-journalists are bachelors ("Which wife would wait for them to return home after a 16-hour working day?") Although there have been three or four women who have tried their hand in the business, it's virtually a male domain.
Efforts were made in the 1970s by the Aurangabadkar brothers, in vain, to form a freelance journalists association. To date, there has been no solidarity among movieland's paparazzi.
At the same time, nearly 5,000 publications in various languages use their pictures "most of them without giving us a single rupee or even a credit line," Shah laments," Papers and tabloids particularly in the north just reproduce the pictures which have been printed by the glossy magazines and supplements of Mumbai."

Drugmaker Wokhardt, on Monday, reported a 77% drop in its net profit to Rs 74.45 crore during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, on the back of import alerts received from the international regulators. The company reported a net profit of Rs 334.76 crore during the corresponding period of the previous year. Total income from operations during the period under review declined to Rs 1,038.67 crore from Rs 1,485.50 crore, a drop of 30%.
Net profit for the year 2013-14 decreased by 47% to Rs 840.71 crore from Rs 1,594.12 crore during the previous year.
The company received import bans from both USFDA and the United Kingdom Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (UKMHRA) on its Aurangabad and Daman facilities. In May last year, the company's Waluj facility at Aurangabad received import ban over non-compliance to good manufacturing practices. Its Chikalthana facility at Aurangabad and Kadaiya facility at Daman also came under regulatory scanner.
According to a pharma analyst with a Mumbai-based broking company, "The drop in net profit was expected. Three of its units are under ban and which are selling to the US and UK markets. The few products which have been given a respite by the foreign regulators comprise a very small amount. There is a double whammy for the company. While the overall sales in the US market is affected, there is remedial costs which is adding to its woe."
The company, during the quarter, increased its research spend significantly which stood at 9.7% of total sales at Rs 101 crore. Including capital expenditure, total R&D spend accounted for 10.7% of sales during the quarter.
Wockhardt filed 10 new product applications with the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) during the quarter taking cumulative filings pending approval to 62. The company also filed for 134 patents during the quarter taking the cumulative filings to 2001 and has been granted 17 patents during the quarter taking the cumulative patents granted to 259.
The company's international business contributed 79% of the total revenues during 2013-14. Wockhardt's US business declined by 26% during the fiscal and contributed 45% of the global revenues. The UK business recorded a growth of 3% while the Irish market recorded a drop of 15%. India business, on the other hand, grew marginally at 2% during the year, while the emerging markets business (including India) declined by 3% in 2013-14. The company launched 26 new products in the domestic market during the fiscal.

A YEAST responsible for thrush can reproduce homosexually - potentially explaining ways it develops resistance to treatment.
When Candida albicans cells reproduce by mating, they have two sex types, "a" and "alpha". Richard Bennett of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, and his colleagues mixed the two types and saw matings between same-sex cells, but only a few (Nature, DOI: 10.1038/nature08252).
They saw many more when they boosted a pheromone secreted by "a" cells that draws same-sex cells together. They did this by disabling an enzyme in "a" cells that usually destroys the "same-sex" pheromone.
Now they want to find out what could make this happen in nature, such as changes in acidity in the mouth, gut or vagina.
In 1999, a lethal strain of a related yeast, Cryptococcus neoformans, emerged on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, through same-sex mating. "The findings suggest that unisex mating may ...

Vasomedical's EECP Therapy Highlighted in Satellite Symposium Preceding this Year's Scientific Sessions of the American College of Cardiology and in Studies Presented During ACC.
WESTBURY, N.Y.--(BW HealthWire)--March 20, 2002
Vasomedical, Inc. (Nasdaq: VASO)
Vasomedical Supports Special University of Minnesota Sponsored
CME Symposium on EECP
New Studies Presented at ACC Demonstrate Effectiveness of
EECP Therapy in Women and the Elderly
Vasomedical, Inc. (Nasdaq: VASO) announced that its EECP therapy had a strong presence at the 2002 Scientific Sessions of the American College of Cardiology (ACC) as evidenced by the presentation of several new studies and more than 200 persons in attendance at a special CME symposium sponsored by the University of Minnesota and supported by an educational grant from Vasomedical preceding this year's ACC entitled "EECP: Current Experience and Future Directions."(a)
Thought leaders presenting at the symposium reviewed currently accepted treatment strategies for patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease and discussed the role of EECP external counterpulsation therapy in today's clinical setting. Some of the topics covered included a summary of clinical trial results, mechanisms of action, current use and patient selection.
Highlights of the symposium included a discussion by Arthur Feldman, MD, Director, Cardiovascular Institute of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, who provided three hypotheses regarding the mechanisms of action of EECP. Emphasizing the need for novel revascularization strategies, David Holmes Jr., MD, Professor of Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota stated that, "It is estimated that there are about 2.5 million patients in the United States with coronary disease not amenable to coronary surgery or [percutaneous coronary interventions]". After medication, coronary artery bypass surgery and percutaneous coronary interventions are the two most commonly used techniques for improving coronary blood flow in patients with ischemic heart disease.
"Attendance at the symposium exceeded our expectations," said D. Michael Deignan, President and CEO of Vasomedical. "This heightened interest clearly indicates to me the extent to which EECP is being accepted as an effective treatment for angina. More importantly, this symposium stimulated further discussion of the future utility of EECP in such areas as congestive heart failure, diabetes and acute coronary syndromes ... areas in which the Company has ongoing or planned clinical trials. As acceptance of EECP as a method for revascularizing patients grows, so too will its role as a tool in cardiovascular disease management."
In addition, three studies on the effectiveness of EECP therapy in certain subsets of angina patients were reported at the ACC. All of the studies presented analyzed data from angina patients enrolled in the International EECP Patient Registry (IEPR) maintained by the University of Pittsburgh's Graduate School of Public Health.
A study entitled "Do Women Refractory to Angina Respond as Well as Men to Treatment with Enhanced External Counterpulsation?" analyzed 3,126 consecutive patients (Male = 2,340 and Female = 786). The authors concluded that, despite a higher incidence of diabetes and heart failure, women treated with EECP improved equally and significantly in angina class reductions and quality of life measures as compared to men.
Another study, entitled "Enhanced External Counterpulsation Reduces Angina and Improves Quality of Life in Elderly Unrevascularizable Patients," analyzed data from 863 elderly (>75 years of age) angina patients enrolled in the IEPR that were not considered candidates for further revascularization procedures. In this severely ill cohort of patients who underwent noninvasive EECP therapy, the authors reported significant reductions in angina, reductions in the number of angina episodes and reductions in the use of nitroglycerin. In addition, patient assessed quality of life scores were also significantly improved post-treatment.
Lead author Georgiann C. Linnemeier, MD, Medical Director of HeartGen Centers of Indianapolis, stated "Symptomatic coronary artery disease in elderly patients is of immense public health and economic importance. In the group of elderly patients who are unsuitable for revascularization, EECP provides an innovative tool that improves functional outcomes and quality of life."
Rohit Arora, MD, Chief of Cardiology, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey - New Jersey Medical School, presented another study entitled "Safety and Efficacy of Enhanced External Counterpulsation in Hypertensive Patients With Refractory Angina Pectoris: Short- and Long-Term Follow-Up." The study examined nearly 2,000 patients of which two-thirds were hypertensive (HTN). The HTN group was more likely to have had prior interventions, congestive heart failure (CHF) and a family history of coronary artery disease as well as more severe angina. After EECP treatment, more than 70% of patients in both groups showed similar reductions in anginal symptoms by decreasing at least one CCSC class. At six-months post-treatment, angina reduction was maintained similarly in both groups with more than 80% maintaining the reduction seen at post-EECP therapy. The authors concluded that EECP therapy is safe and effective in hypertensive patients with the achievement of similar reductions in angina to the non-HTN group; however, there was a slight increase in some adverse effects (like an exacerbation of CHF or episodes of unstable angina) both in the short-term and long-term.
Vasomedical, Inc. is primarily engaged in designing, manufacturing, marketing and supporting EECP external counterpulsation systems based on the Company's proprietary technology currently indicated for use in cases of angina, cardiogenic shock and acute myocardial infarction. EECP is a noninvasive, outpatient therapy for the treatment of diseases of the cardiovascular system. The therapy serves to increase circulation in areas of the heart with less than adequate blood supply and may restore systemic vascular function. The Company is also actively engaged in research to determine potential benefits of EECP therapy in the management of other major vascular disease states, including congestive heart failure and diabetes. The Company provides hospitals, clinics and private practices with EECP(R) equipment, treatment guidance and a staff training and maintenance program designed to provide optimal patient outcomes. EECP(R) is a registered trademark for Vasomedical's enhanced external counterpulsation system. Additional information is available on the Company's website at www.vasomedical.com.

Interactive Analytics and OLAP - Part III
In the part II of interactive analytics and OLAP, we left a question: Can the narrowed OLAP be used to complete the computation process as follows (marketing and sales data analysis)?
- The first in customers whose purchases from the company account for half of the sales volume of the company of the current year;
- The stocks which go up to the limit for three consecutive days within one month;
- Commodities in the supermarket which are sold out at 5 P.M for three times within one month;
- Commodities whose sales volumes in this month have decreased by more than 20% over those of the preceding month;
Of course NOT!
Currently OLAP system has two key disadvantages:
- The multi-dimensional cube is prepared in advance by the application system and user does not have the capability to temporarily design or reconstruct the cube, so once there is new analysis demand, it is necessary to re-create the analytics cube.
- The analysis actions could be implemented by cube are rather monotonous. The defined actions are quite few, such as the drilling, aggregating, slicing, and pivoting. The complicated analysis behavior requiring multi-steps is hard to implement.
Although the current OLAP tools are splendid regarding its look and feel, few on-line analysis capabilities powerful enough are provided actually.
Then, what kind of OLAP do we need? What kind of OLAP tools we need?
It is very simple, and we need a kind of on-line analytical system that can support evaluation process, which SQL data computing or excel computation can handle.
Technically speaking, steps for evaluation process can be regarded as computation regarding data (query can be understood to be filter computation). This kind of computation can be freely defined by user and user can occasionally decide the next computation action according to the existing intermediate result, without having to model beforehand. Additionally, as data source is generally database system, it is necessary to require this kind of computation to be able to very well support mass structured data (tools like esProc) instead of simple numeric computation. And evaluation process is what business need especially in marketing and sales data analysis.
Then, can SQL (or MDX) play this role?
SQL is indeed invented for this aim and it owns complete computation capability and it adopts a writing style similar to natural language.
But, as SQL computation system is too basic, it is very difficult and over-elaborate to achieve complex computation by a SQL data computing, such as problems listed in the preceding paragraphs. It is even not so easy for programmers who have received professional training, so ordinary users can only use SQL to implement some of the simplest queries and aggregate computation (based on the filter and summarization of a single table). This result leads to the fact that the application of SQL has already deviated far away from its original intention of invention, almost becoming the expertise for programmers.
We should follow the working thought of SQL to carefully study the specific disadvantage of SQL and find the way to overcome it in an effort to develop a new generation of computation system, thereby implementing the evaluation process, namely, the real OLAP, instant data analytics.

2010 Land Rover Range Rover Sport Problems
The parking brake may develop a screeching noise or fail to release. Our technicians tell us the is commonly caused by the parking brake cable being out of adjustment or failure of the parking break actuator. Cable adjustment and/or actuator replacement would be necessary to correct this concern.
A clunk type noise may be noted while turning left or right at slow speeds. Our technicians tell us this noise is commonly caused by the intermediate steering shaft, a revised intermediate shaft is available to correct this concern.
A pulsation may be noted upon brake application. This condition is commonly caused by warped brake rotors. Our technicians recommend inspecting both front and rear brake rotors when this condition occurs. Brake pads should be replaced along with any warped rotors to correct this condition.

Very poor quality vehicle. 10 trips back to the dealer for warranty work, often for similar or related problems. Now off warranty, still having problems. Check engine lite on, back-up camera not working (repaired more than once under warranty.) Wonder if it's worth fixing anymore. Very expensive...

China, the world's No. 1 pork consumer, has slapped "temporary restrictions" on imports of U.S. pigs to prevent a deadly virus from spreading to its herd, according to a report by Bloomberg citing the Livestock Exporters Association of the USA.
The news will probably raise concerns among U.S. farmers who are battling the lethal disease, which has crimped hog supplies and sent prices to record highs.
China will not issue more import permits for U.S. pigs until the two countries agree on testing protocol for the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus, or PEDv, Bloomberg reported, citing Tony Clayton, president of the group.
China can resume importing "fairly quickly" as long as "the U.S. agrees to some kind of testing protocol," he said.
The Ministry of Agriculture in Beijing did not respond to questions, Bloomberg said.
The Livestock Exporters Association of the USA was not immediately available.
So far, the U.S. government has counted more than 4,700 cases in 27 states of PEDv.

Motor Control for 6WD Wild Thumper

March 29, 2010
Open call for suggestions:
I own a bare 6WD chassis "Wild Thumper" by Dagu, designed by Oddbot. And I have (2) "racing packs". Those are basically 6 NiCd cells in series, providing 7.2 Volts nominally. The motors are rated for 6 V. Stall current is listed as 5.5 A.
Even the most basic speed control will need some sort of amplifier for the PWM signal. Let's start very simple. Just speed control. Just one motor. One direction. What kind of transistor shall I buy? And what kind of circuit shall I use?
I know about BJT transistors and I do not really worry about the 0.7 V drop across Collector-Emitter. Or about heat sinks. What would be the (minimum) transistor to buy? What characteristics am I looking at?
Some would say FET transistors are a better choice. Tell me why. Remember, I am a FET newbie.
I've used the complementary
I've used the complementary IRF540 N-channel and the IRF9540 P-channel FETs for building the motor driver in Tiny Tim and they do an excellent job in my opinion plus they're fairly cheap.
If you're going for a cheaper solution, I'd look at BJTs like the complementary TIP-120 and TIP-125 which are rated for 5A continuous operation and 8A pulse operation. They come really cheap especially when bought in larger quantities.
FETs have the nice property that they don't consume power in the on state like BJTs do. They only consume power while switching. This will not make much difference for a motor driver with a small amount of transistors though - it's more of a nice-to-know thing.
Good news and bad news
The bad news is that the factory which was supposed to produce a speed controller for us has failed miserably. The good news is that I am now designing one myself (if you want something done right...)
The bad news is it will still be weeks before I have a final product ready to sell. The good news is that Pololu now sell the 6WD chassis and have a few suitable drivers available. Robot shop will also sell them but are a bit slower setting up the webpage.
If you do wait for one of mine here is a list of "planned" features: (No promises).
1. Controlled by a built in Arduino Nano for hackability.
2. Can charge up to 4x 7.2V NiMh / NiCd Battery packs.
3. 5.4V @ 6A supply rail for servos.
4. 5V @ 1.5A for logic sensors.
5. USB interface with 3.3V output.
6. 2x 20A FET "H" bridges with brake ability.
7. Able to acept serial, analog and RC inputs.
Conrad is a very high priced webshop
Conrad is a very high priced webshop. My favorite webshop for electronic components in europe is tme. Fair prices, fast delivery, low shipping costs.
One thing to remind: the prices are without tax and in polnish zloty (can be changed to Euro).
A suitable FET transistor
A suitable FET transistor when saturated can have a resistance of less than 0.05 ohms allowing plenty of current to flow without the FET getting too hot.
A BJT with a similar current rating will convert a lot more of your precious battery energy into wasted heat while limiting your motors performance. A big heatsink will also waste your space.
I would suggest the IRLZ34N
I would suggest the IRLZ34N from International Rectifier, a cheap logic level type N-FET, available at Conrad
The important thing is to get a logic level type. Only this types can be switched on/off directly from a microcontroller at 5V. The L in the type name indicates a logic level FET. Unfortunatly there doesn't exist a similar logic level P-FET for building a H-Bridge.
Look for 'direct product
Look for 'direct product link' or 'link to this article' to get a popup window with a clean link to the article without session ID.

Terracotta Villa is situated a short distance from the town and beaches of Kranevo, Albena and Golden Sands and has panoramic views of the Black Sea. Access into the villa is by external steps to the first floor balcony leading to the light and spacious open plan lounge, kitchenette and dining area, and double bedroom and bathroom with toilet. An internal spiral staircase provides access between the floors. The ground floor has a seating / sleeping area with a character fireplace, the master bedroom with en suite shower and toilet, the twin bedroom with an en suite shower room with toilet and ground floor external entrance. The pool area includes a sun terrace with wooden furniture, an infinity swimming pool and a changing / shower room with toilet. There is a sanded area to play badminton, volleyball or boules. The villa garden produces an abundance of seasonal fruit.
The owners stay in Bulgaria and are available if needed to ensure that you make the most of your holiday e.g. giving advice on places to visit, eat out and to assist with any unforeseen circumstances.
There are two golf courses near to Balchik - about a 30 minute drive - An Ian Woosnam designed golf course - the Lighthouse Golf Club & Spa Resort an 18 hole, par 71 golf course and clubhouse, also a Gary Player designed 18 hole golf course at 'BlackSeaRama Golf & Villlas complex'
Nous avons passé de très belles vacances chez Al et Sue qui nous ont accueillis avec énormément de gentillesse. La maison, le jardin, la piscine avec vue sur mer étaient fabuleux. L'environnement est extrêmement calme et relaxant. Les enfants ont adorés jouer dans le jardin, faire des match de badminton et sauter dans la piscine. Merci encore à nos hôtes pour ce bon séjour !
From first making contact enquiry to being dropped at the airport to return home the owners Sue & Al were a pleasure to deal with all responses to e-mails were answered promrtly.
the Villa was exactly as described with a wonderful view over the Black sea, The fruit in the garden was just getting ripe when we visited the grapes,figs and apple were lovely
We particulally enjoyed the resort of Kranevo some great restaurants selling mostly Bulgarian fare The staff in the restaurants were all good fun & friendly it was not as polished as the main resorts but was a lot cheaper
All in all a great holiday and would recommend most whole heartedly
thank you to the owners Al & Sue
Not a photo in the world can describe the tranquility of Terracotta Villa. You can have it all there: peaceful days, if you are staying at the villa and enjoy the wonderful pool and terrace, beautiful beaches in Kranevo (with all kinds of water sports),water park in Golden Sands, night life in Golden Sands, places to visit in Varna or Balchik. We loved our staying in the villa both the adults and the kids (around 14 years old). So, thank you Sue and Al and see you next year, I hope!
Just arrived home 2 days back and what a holiday, it was fantastic and mostly thanks to the villa!
It is ideally located with a short, quite steep walk down to the quiet sandy beach with a few taverns and plenty of supermarkets, if you dont fancy the walk back up hill the taxi ride is only around 5 lev (£2.50)
The villa has everything, and is more beautiful than the pictures show Al and Sue (the owners) really have thought of everything from a beer fridge outdoors to insect repellent plug ins for you!! They couldnt have been more helpful with your best interests at heart to enjoy your holiday.
The pool is just fantastic, I spent everyday in there it has lovely views and Al keeps it spotless.
We also visited Belchik, Golden sands and an aqua park in Golden sands thanks to useful information from the owners all are a short taxi ride which are reasonable fees and make a good day out.
Overall if you want a luxury villa for a great deal I would recommend this one, the owners are just brillient and I would like to hope we have made some great friends out of this holiday along with a fantastic tan to go back with!!
Charlie & Martin
We were delighted with the villa,everything you needed for self catering was provided and the place was spotless.
The area was very scenic and peaceful,perfect for a relaxing holiday.
The villa was exactly as discribed in the holiday details-a refreshing change!
The pool was beautifully maintained and a joy to swim in.
We found some wonderful very good value for money resturants locally and the people were so hospitable.
Al and Sue, the owners are a delightful couple who couldn't be more hepful.
We are going back in September and would highly recommend it .
The villa was even better than the pictures show, with beautiful views from every room. You could even eat the fruit growing on the trees in the garden! If you got a bit bored of the volleyball court and the swimming pool in your own back garden, the local town was within walking distance and the Golden Sands resort only a short cab ride away.
We went as a group of students and found that because we went in September it was very quiet in the bars and restaurants at night, so if you are looking for a good nightlife it is advisable to go in the summer months. However this was the only negative and we still enjoyed ourselves! I would definitely recommend it!
The villa is ideally located between the resorts of Golden Sands and Albena, very close to the small resort town of Kranevo, which has beautiful beaches and safe swimming. The city of Varna is a 25 minute drive from the villa, where there is a variety of tourist and cultural attractions including museums, art galleries, theatre, opera house, cathedral and the city beach, as well as the usual shops, cafes, bars, restaurants and nightclubs. The quaint town of Balchik with its marina and golf courses is approximately half an hours drive away.
Other Activities: Volleyball, French boules, badminton.

Create 2D, 3D or stop motion animation movies
Animation movies are more now more perfect than even, thanks especially to the use of computer technology. You may not have the same budget as a big cinema studio, but you can still take your first steps in animation with this program.
Digicel Flipbook enables you to create animated movies using three different methods (2D, 3D and stop-motion). Although it includes a very complete user manual, it does require some talent and certain knowledge about drawing and animation. Plus, the author recommends using a graphic tablet for better results.
The program features all the tools you need to create your movie, including support for scanners and webcams. However, we found the drawing tools to be too simple. Once your creation is finished, you can export it ad AVI or GIF, or even save the frames as independent files.

Life of the Party or Wallflower? Baskin-Robbins Launches Facebook Quiz Revealing Ice Cream Flavor That Best Matches Your Personality
CANTON, Mass., Sept. 13 /PRNewswire/ — Looking to get to know someone better? Whether it's a new college roommate, coworker or significant other, the flavor they select at Baskin-Robbins may provide clues about their personality. Today Baskin-Robbins, the world's largest chain of ice cream specialty shops, launched a personality quiz on Facebook for ice cream enthusiasts designed to determine which ice cream flavor best matches their personality.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20100503/NE97472LOGO )
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20100503/NE97472LOGO )
Dr. Alan Hirsch, a nationally recognized smell and taste expert and founder of the Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago, IL, worked with Baskin-Robbins to reveal what flavor choices suggest about someone's personality. The matches between flavor and personality were made based on ingredient preferences in different ice cream flavors.
"As Irv Robbins used to say 'Not everyone likes all our flavors, but each flavor is someone's favorite,'" says Brian O'Mara, Baskin-Robbins Vice President of Marketing. "Our flavors represent something specific to all ice cream fans, but now consumers can take a short quiz and determine what distinct flavors of Baskin-Robbins match their one-of-a-kind personality."
"There is a common ice cream flavor misconception that people who choose Vanilla are bland and boring," says Dr. Hirsch, Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation. "This is not true at all, when it comes to flavor and taste, we found people who chose Vanilla are quite the opposite of boring. They are likely to be the life of the party because they don't need flavor in food to fill in what may be missing in their life."
The personality quiz can be found on the Baskin-Robbins Facebook page, and is based on eight distinct personality types: laid back/relaxed, adventurous/active, shy/introverted, analytical/cautious, outgoing/extroverted, detail-oriented, outspoken and an idealist. Baskin-Robbins Facebook Fans are encouraged to take the quiz, share it with their Facebook friends and invite others to learn which Baskin-Robbins flavor matches their personality. Ice cream lovers may be surprised at which flavor matches their personalities – perhaps it's a new flavor they have never tried.
The Which Flavor Are You? quiz is available on the Baskin-Robbins Facebook Fan Page at http://apps.facebook.com/bricecream/. For more information on the Which Flavor Are You? quiz and Baskin-Robbins, visit their website at www.BaskinRobbins.com or follow Baskin-Robbins on Twitter at www.twitter.com/BaskinRobbins.

"We don't make anything easy," Flacco said. "I think we gave the country a pretty good game to watch. Not to our liking, necessarily, but that's the way it goes sometimes. That's the way we do things."
That does seem to be the way for these Ravens, who finished the regular season by losing 4 of 5 games and switching offensive coordinators.
But Flacco remained steady throughout, just like he did Sunday. He passed 13 yards to Anquan Boldin for one touchdown, 1 yard to Dennis Pitta for another and 56 yards to Jacoby Jones for the third (converting a third-and-10, too).
Yet, his most telling throw led to no points, in the first quarter, as he was being chased by two 49ers toward the sideline. Flacco flung the ball – honestly, it looked like he was throwing it away to avoid a loss – into an open space.
Pitching a football 30 feet under the circumstances would have been impressive enough. But Flacco had the arm strength to heave the thing 30 yards, where Boldin suddenly appeared to make the catch.
"We've been there before," Flacco said. "We've failed before. We've succeeded before. We're not worried about the outcome. We just go out there and play football, execute and we believe that if we do that ...eventually it is going to work out."
Ah, Joe, you sure you're not dull?
Regardless, Sunday was a great day to be Joe Flacco, and it wouldn't be a bad thing to be him in the immediate future, as well.
Flacco has no contract for next season and now possesses the ultimate hammer to swing in negotiations. He could have signed an extension earlier but, when he and the Ravens couldn't settle on a dollar figure, Flacco decided it would be best to wait.
Smart man. The rumors – before this game – had him in the same neighborhood Peyton Manning and Drew Brees call home. That's approaching $20 million annually. All three of those quarterbacks, by the way, now are Super Bowl winners.
But that's the business side of football. Super Bowl XLVII wasn't about business.
It was about two teams putting on quite a show, lighting up a stadium on a night when the power went out, and a quarterback named Joe, simply Joe.
"That's why I call him Smokin' Joe," Jones said.
Smokin' Joe? He was a fighter, too. And a champion.

|Challenge: Offer telemarketers useful tips and strong motivation.
A media and publishing company wanted to find a unique way to help telemarketers remember key selling suggestions, in order to improve closing ratio and employee retention. The company also wanted to create a contest featuring a valuable prize that would act as an incentive to use these sales tips.
Solution: Promotional coffee mug imprinted with selling tips for each desk.
The company gave each employee an Acrylic Director Office Mug that had a script of Tom Peters' selling tips screen-printed onto one side of the mug. The imprinted mug was also tied into a sales contest. The winner of the contest won an all-inclusive trip for two to Hawaii to hear Tom Peters speak.
Result: Closing ratio increased 50% during the contest.
The telemarketers' closing ratio increased by 50% during the contest. Moreover, the telemarketers sustained a 27% increase in their closing ratio during the next full year. All agreed that the mug was an unconventional and welcomed change to the paper and pencil script they had used previously.

They should have shut down all the streets
cause that innocent kid shouldnt been there.
But not a single emphasy, all the school is closed
And the roads we drove on all night,
Lot of people kept in hand a cry
That went on for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles.
They should have shot down all the streets
All the paper is plastered with tributes.
We shouldve ask for privacy that we understand
If its something to share their pain,
We would ask to grieve this in our mind way
And they should have asked again and again and again.
They should have shut down all the streets
Of the Brooklins pile of the doorstep.
The pages filled with crayon hearts
That are second great,
Classic made a rescue that day
Because the teacher had to give them some small way
And I would have many ways to understand.
They should have shut down all the streets.

Getting kids to 'wise up' about the drug craze
CNB's engaging methods include mock autopsy table to depict dangers
Published on Jun 24, 2014 9:19 AM
Singapore's drug busters have adopted a more engaging approach in opening the eyes of students to the dangers of drugs.
Skits involving students is the latest addition to a string of interactive moves to get those in the 12-to-18 age group to say "no" to drugs.
Roadshows, videos and a bus fitted with digital devices have also been launched to drive home the message in a lively manner.
These sessions at schools, junior colleges, institutes of education (ITEs) and polytechnics used to be conducted in a less interesting manner, with officers from the Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) giving talks, with Powerpoint slides, during assembly sessions.
