In python 2.7, by using
from __future__ import division, print_function
I can now have
print(1/2) showing
However is it possible to have this automatically imported at python startup ?
I tried to use the
sitecustomize.py special module but the inport is only valid inside the module and not in the shell.
As I'm sure people will ask why I need that : teaching Python to teenagers I noticed that the integer division was not easy for them so we decided to switch to Python 3. However one of the requirement of the course was to be able to plot function and Matplotlib is pretty good but only valid for Python 2.7.
So my idea was to use a custom 2.7 installation...not perfect but I don't have a better idea to have both Matplotlib and the new "natural" division "1/2=0.5".
Any advice or maybe a Matplotlib alternative that is working on python 3.2 ?

Rice to visit Thailand, doubts over ARF meeting
By Nopporn Wong-Anan and Ed Cropley
BANGKOK (Reuters) – Secretary of State Condoleezza Ricewill visit tsunami-hit parts of Thailand next week, officialssaid Monday, fueling speculation she will snub a major securitymeeting in the region later in the month.
Rice is due to arrive on the southern resort island ofPhuket Sunday and to meet Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra andForeign Minister Kantathi Suphamongkhon the following day.
Foreign Ministry officials said post-tsunami rebuilding inThailand, where 5,400 died, would top the agenda although itwas "inevitable" the two sides would also address the divisiveissue of the military junta in neighboring Myanmar.
"The objective of her visit is to observe reconstructionefforts after the tsunami, so most of her meetings will be inPhuket," Foreign Ministry spokesman Sihasak Phuangketkeow said.
Rice's visit is part of an Asian trip including China,Japan and South Korea — a schedule which appears to rule outher attending the annual ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) in the Laocapital of Vientiane on July 28-29.
Diplomatic sources have suggested Rice may skip the annualsecurity meeting, which U.S. Secretaries of State have attendedfor many years — along with counterparts from ASEAN and China,Japan and North and South Korea — in protest at theparticipation of Myanmar's ruling generals.
The United States and the European Union have imposedsanctions on the former Burma over the house arrest ofdemocracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi and the lack of progress towardmulti-party rule.
To the frustration of Washington, the 10-member Associationof South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) has favored "constructiveengagement" to try and coax the junta toward democracy. Neitherpolicy has had any obvious success.
Washington insists there will be "high-level StateDepartment representation" at the ARF, although has declined tosay whether this means Rice or her deputy, Robert Zoellick.
Analysts said a Rice boycott would be a major slap in theface to a region where it has "war on terror" security concernsand where it is fast losing its edge to a rising China.
"It will be very interesting to see whether she actuallydoes not show up on the day itself, because that would beincredible," said Ralf Emmers of Singapore's Institute ofStrategic and Defense Studies.
"Not showing up to the only security forum in the region? Ithink quite a bit of explanation would need to be given," hesaid, adding that the snub would be even greater given thatRice has only just moved into the job.
The U.S. embassy in Bangkok said it had no details ofRice's travel plans.
ASEAN comprises Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand,Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Myanmar, Indonesia and thePhilippines.
Myanmar, which has been under military rule for more thanfour decades, is due to assume the group's alphabeticallyrotating chair in mid-2006 — a timetable which has forced thecontroversy over ASEAN's "black sheep" into the open.

From the PublisherProfessor Guo Rongxing delivers exactly what he promises: an introduction to the Chinese economy. But he touches all the right bases, and his explanations are always clear. The treatment is balanced, with appropriate historical perspective. The final chapter on fundamental issues in China's economic development is particularly thoughtful.

Teachers of introductory courses on the People's Republic of China will find this book very useful. It not only provides an introduction to the success of the world's most dynamic economy, it places that development in its social, cultural, and political contexts with a great deal of insight and erudition.

Unfortunately, "Go to definition" (as well as all other options near that, except for "go to header") are grayed out. It doesn't even show me the definition if I hover over it, so its really weird. I think the only logical solution would be that it was defined in the directx-sdk... any idea if dx does that/did that at some point?
EDIT: Appearently, at least when searching the SDK include dir for "nullptr" in notepad++, it doesn't show any hit. More ideas where this could come from? My version of VS here is german, the other one english, but both have the SP1 installed, I'm really out of ideas.

Re: Ghostbusters 30th Anniversary re-release August 29
I just remember being disappointed in the appearance of the film not having much of crispness to it which I guess is chalked up to the quality of the film stock being used and, thankfully, those doing the remaster not going overboard with color-correction and smoothing things out which tends to look overly fake.
Just because it's futuristic doesn't mean it's practical.

Re: Ghostbusters 30th Anniversary re-release August 29
The special effects are poor (understandable since it's 30 years old), the score is mostly terrible, and the pacing of this movie seems off.
There is also one line that completely bothers me. Dan Akroyd is telling the mayor how Peck turned off the power grid, and his delivery of "until the power grid was shut off by dickless here..." is very awkward. It feels like an alternate take, and you can almost tell that he really wanted to say something like "until dickless here turned off the power grid" but he changed his mind going into it.
Still a good movie, but it's not what I remembered as a 15 year old.
Give each other $10, put it on Underhill.

Idea Cellular, on Thursday, followed its rivals Vodafone and Bharti Airtel by reducing data tariff by 90 per cent in eight circles across the country. Idea users can now access data for just 2 paise per 10 KB as against the existing tariff of 2 paise per KB.
The new data tariff will be applicable from July 1, and the offer will be valid for 90 days. Idea users in the eight circles of Tamil Nadu as well as Chennai, Karnataka, Kolkata, West Bengal, Assam, North East, Bihar, and Orissa will benefit from the revised data tariff on prepaid and post-paid 2G plans, the company says in a release.
"Idea has continuously focused at growing data penetration in Tier 2 & 3 markets. These 8 circles comprise one third of the total mobile users, with a large number of users waiting to board the mobile broadband wagon. Availability of data at such affordable rates will usher in a new wave of mobile data growth in the country," Ambrish Jain, Deputy Managing Director, Idea Cellular said.
The revised tariff is applicable for all 2G data users who use on pay-as-you-go basis, and also on overage on the regular data packs. The new data rate will be automatically implemented for all Idea 2G post-paid subscribers in these markets, effective July 1. Idea prepaid users can avail themselves of the new rate with a nominal value recharge priced between Rs.5 and Rs.10, and will be applicable for 90 days from the date of activation.

"After reading this book, all I can say is Sepp Holzer is a Superstar Farmer. Holzer turns out an absolutely remarkable volume and variety of food products, all without one smidgen of chemical fertilizer, and on land in Austria that an Illinois corn farmer would pronounce too marginal for agriculture. American farmers and gardeners will be particularly interested in Holzer's raised beds—which are quite different in construction from ours in the U.S.—as well as his inventive water well irrigation systems, unique methods for integrating livestock into his fruit and vegetable gardens, and practical, low-labor way to grow mushrooms. A fascinating book for anyone who aspires to become the ultimate, champion professional of sustainable farming."—Gene Logsdon, author of Holy Shit: Managing Manure to Save Mankind, and The Contrary Farmer
—Gene Logsdon, author of Holy Shit: Managing Manure to Save Mankind, and The Contrary Farmer
With information on mushroom cultivation, sowing a fruit forest, alternative ways to keep livestock, and more...
Sepp Holzer farms steep mountainsides in Austria 1,500 meters above sea level. His farm is an intricate network of terraces, raised beds, ponds, waterways and tracks, well covered with productive fruit trees and other vegetation, with the farmhouse neatly nestling amongst them. This is in dramatic contrast to his neighbors' spruce monocultures.
In this book, Holzer shares the skill and knowledge acquired over his lifetime. He covers every aspect of his farming methods, not just how to create a holistic system on the farm itself, but how to make a living from it. Holzer writes about everything from the overall concepts, down to the practical details.
In Sepp Holzer's Permaculture readers will learn:
* How he sets up a permaculture system
* The fruit varieties he has found best for permaculture growing
* How to construct terraces, ponds, and waterways
* How to build shelters for animals and how to work with them on the land
* How to cultivate edible mushrooms in the garden and on the farm
* and much more!
Holzer offers a wealth of information for the gardener, smallholder or alternative farmer yet the book's greatest value is the attitudes it teaches. He reveals the thinking processes based on principles found in nature that create his productive systems. These can be applied anywhere.
Josef ("Sepp") Holzer was born in the Province of Salzburg, Austria. He is a farmer, author and an international consultant for natural agriculture. He took over his parents' mountain farm business in 1962 and pioneered the use of ecological farming, or permaculture, techniques at high altitudes (1,100 to 1,500 meters above sea level) after being unsuccessful with regular farming methods. Called the "rebel farmer" because he persisted in these practices despite being fined and even threatened with prison for practices such as not pruning his fruit trees (unpruned fruit trees survive snow loads that will break pruned trees). He has ...

Why does he want me to chase him?
Question Posted Monday July 4 2011, 2:09 pm
I have this guy I like. I try to talk to him but he seems so uninterested so i figure he don't like so I leave him alone. But then when Im across the room from him he keeps staring at me. Even my friends say so. They think he likes me but that he wants me to chase him around like other girls. But why does he want me chase him? I mean I reach out to him and try to be friendly what else does he want? Does he really like me or does he just want attention? What do I do?

answered Monday July 4 2011, 5:47 pm:
When it is something as simple as staring, it can be hard to tell if the guy really likes you.
He may just be nervous when he is talking to you, in which case, if you like him, just try to continue being friendly and maybe he will warm up to you.
IF he is just trying to play games then I would stay out of it. You are completely right to doubt chasing him, I definitely wouldn't do any chasing. It is not our job. If he really really likes you I hope he will drop the games and speak to you. He may just want significant evidence that you like him too before he shows any feelings or anything, that may be why he would want you to be more flirty and "chase" him.
AND he may just really want to become friends with you but isn't sure how. It is a big possibility. Guys are so confusing. Good luck!

ONTARIO, Ore. -- It was a scary ride for 11 elementary school children after a bus driver employed by the Ontario School District drove into a ditch Monday evening.
Deputies with the Malheur CountySheriff's Office and officers with the Oregon State Police responded to the bus crash just after 6 p.m. on Peterson Road northwest of Ontario.
Undersheriff Travis Johnson says the bus driver reportedly looked into his mirror to check on the children just before he inadvertently drove off the narrow road.
When he looked back forward, he had drifted just far enough off the road into the shoulder -- but the road doesn't have a good shoulder ... It just pulled him off the road, Johnson said.
Thankfully, the bus came to a stop leaning up against some trees and did not roll.
Officers and school district officials say nobody was seriously injured in the accident.
However, Ontario School District Superintendent Nicole Albisu said one little girl did complain of ankle pain and a boy complained of a bump on the head.
Both students were transported via ambulance to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center where they were treated and released.
Albisu says another bus owned by the Ontario SchoolDistrict transported four additional children to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center in Ontario as a precaution.
The remainder of the students were also transported to the hospital by parents as a precaution.
Police don't believe the children were misbehaving before the crash. They also have not charged the bus driver.
The bus was not seriously damaged.

And Now For Something Completely Different
Originally published on Sat August 3, 2013 3:44 am
I don't know what this is, or what it cost this guy to do what he does to his knees, or to the top of his skull. I don't know what I'm listening to; I only know that what happens in this video is beautiful. And different. And worth sharing, especially the ropey thing at the end. So, since it's the weekend, and it's just us, (and though this isn't remotely about science), take a look...
I'm told that this video is a response to an earlier video of what sounds like the same song, (which you can see here), but there's no comparison. Our guy wins. He's got heart.

Disclaimer: I'm ad-libbing from memory on stories that happened almost two years ago. If there's errors, let me know and I'll ammend them.
Disclaimer 2: This chronicle is for mature audiences only.
Remembering some information from Antwon's laptop diary, Ken suggests that the answers to the problem may lie in the Shadow. He suggests that they seek out the Serpent's Creed's totem, Waits-in-Grass.
The group crosses over to the spirit realm. They get their first glimpse of the Wound that lies to the South of their territory. It appears to be a dark, roiling storm sparking with multi-colored lightning. They traveled West, following the directions described in the laptop.
On the way to the location, they battled storm spirits in the shape of ravens. They also met a owl spirit by the name of Fate-Like-Razor. The rest of the pack were ready to attack, but Ken spoke to the curious spirit and they left on good terms. This was an attempt by the Storyteller to get the pack interested in getting a totem, alas they didn't take the bait on the owl
The group finally makes it to the caves where the serpent is hiding. The serpent is antagonistic until the pack realizes that the spirit has given birth to a brood of serpent spirits, that it is protecting its young. Once the serpent learns that the werewolves do not wish for it to become a totem spirit, it is willing to talk to them. It tells them of Eddie's theft of the gem which fell from the sky, of his despair over the loss of his pack, of his research into the nether worlds of death. Waits-in-Grass speaks of how Eddie shattered the gem somewhere in the park.
When the pack finally makes it back to their locus, there is a message on Ken's cell phone. Warden Harbrook needs help, he's decided to close down the park now that a person has died jogging in the park.

Where: School Of Stuff (The)
What: Cabinet Making Basic Skills
by Chris - September 2014
I took two 3 hour per week evening courses at The School of Stuff in basic and intermediate cabinet making, each one just long enough for a simple but satisfying project. The first essentially covered dovetail joints in a simple but attractive small pine storage box, the second focused on mortise and tenon joints to make a strong and actually very stylish ash stool. The facility doesn't have the professional feel of a Further Education college workshop, but the bench and tool mix were perfectly functional if eclectic, and the two teachers I had were excellent. It wasn't intended to be course preparing me for a career, but it did fulfil my hopes for a small workshop based course teaching the use of hand tools in introductory cabinet making.
Cabinet makers are skilled craftsmen/women who make individually designed and produced pieces of furniture such as chairs, tables, chests of drawers, fitted furniture and cabinets for storage or display. Cabinet makers may also restore antiques or repair damaged furniture. The Cabinet making process begins with obtaining or creating a design drawing of the furniture, from which the quantity and type of materials required and the method of construction are decided. The cabinet maker will then purchase the material from suppliers such as timber yards. Using electric and...more

UNION — The municipal property tax levy will remain the same but most utility rates and the garbage collection fee will increase in the City of Union in fiscal 2014-2015.
The City of Union's combined budget for fiscal 2014-2015 totals $45,237,170, an increase of 8.25 percent over the current budget of $41,870,350. The increase is due primarily to expected increases in the cost of wholesale power and natural gas.
Union City Council voted unanimously to approve second and final reading of the combined budget which includes:
General Fund
The General Fund is that part of the budget which covers all municipal government departments including the Public Safety, Public Services, Vehicle Maintenance, and Building & Zoning.
General Fund revenues and expenditures for fiscal 2014-2015 are budgeted at $5,701,850, including $121,900 for equipment replacement.
Council also voted unanimously Tuesday to approve second and final reading of the municipal property tax levy which generates the revenue for General Fund operations. The municipal property tax levy for fiscal 2014-2015 will remain at its current level of 92.5 mills.
Solid Waste Management
The Solid Waste Management Fund covers municipal garbage collection and its 2014-2015 budget totals $763,200.
While the budget does not include any new capital expenditures, it does include an increase in the monthly garbage collection fee from $15 to $16.
Utility Fund
The Utility Fund is the largest part of the city budget and covers the operations of the City of Union Utility Department and its water, sewer, electricity, and natural gas divisions.
Including $368,000 for equipment replacement and vehicles and $2,678,900 for utility infrastructure the Utility Fund budget for fiscal 2014-2015 totals $37,634,120.
The expected increase in the wholesale cost of power that helped increase the overall budget will be passed along to city customers through a combination of increases in the basic facilities rates for electricity and in the demand charge for commercial, church, and industrial customers.
Water rates will increase by 8 percent and sewer rates by 10 percent under the new budget while natural gas rates will remain unchanged.
Both the General Fund and the Utility Fund will use their fund balances/cash reserves to balance revenues with expenditures.
Special Revenue Funds
The overall budget also includes the following Special Revenue Funds totaling $1,228,000:
• Local Hospitality and Accommodations — $390,000
• Drug Fund — $6,000
• Community Change — $30,000
• Debt Service-Tax Increment — $102,000
• Events Center — $700,000
The Special Revenue Funds are generated by revenue sources other than municipal property taxes and utility rates.
The overall budget also includes a one percent living adjustment for municipal employees.
Mayor Harold Thompson said that the budget is the result of the hard work of council in crafting a budget that balance revenues with expenditures while maintaining public services.
"After looking at these numbers over the last six months I think council did the best it could do to come up with the budget that we did come up with," Thompson said. "We labored over at a couple of sessions but we feel that we did the best that we could do to maintain services and minimize any increases."

Valentine Coffee Roasters to add a tasting room
Valentine Coffee Roasters plans to open a tasting room in its west side roastery, perhaps by March or April.
Note that the company's principals call it a tasting room, as you'd find at a winery, rather than a café. With their background in wine, they intend to focus on the flavors of coffees from around the world. They'll serve cups of coffee brewed by the pour-over method along with espresso and espresso drinks, but won't flavor coffee drinks with syrups. »Read Full Blog Post

China recently amended its civil procedure law to allow nongovernmental organizations to sue on behalf of the public interest. This provision could be transformative, and Chinese NGOs will have to learn quickly how to litigate public interest lawsuits. There has been only one public interest case brought by a grassroots NGO to look to and learn from so far: a pending case brought by two NGOs over illegal chromium pollution in Yunnan province. The speakers at this panel will discuss how and why public interest law has become a "hot" topic among the law, policy, and NGO communities. They will also analyze the implications of what we know about this case for future environmental public interest cases.

CHENNAI: The Madras High Court has granted an interim stay of an order of the Second Additional District Munsif at Coimbatore as confirmed by the Principal Subordinate Judge, Coimbatore, in a case relating to provident fund contributions from NEPC Airlines and two sister concerns, NEPC Textiles and NEPC Tea Garden.
Justice S. Palanivelu granted interim stay and ordered notice on an appeal filed by the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO).
In its plaint before the Sub-Judge, Coimbatore, the company submitted that provident fund contributions had been effected in respect of its employees with the EPFO. The airline division of NEPC Airlines had suspended its operation.
Meanwhile, it came to learn that as per a Central government notification of March 2001, provident fund was applicable to aircraft establishments and airlines other than aircraft and airlines owned or controlled by the Central and State governments also with effect from April 1, 2001. The companies submitted that the EPFO could not recover any amount from them prior to that date.
In view of the notification, the organisation was not entitled to retain the employer's contribution in respect of the employees of the airline company on any grounds.
But the EPFO was attempting to recover the alleged dues of Rs.90 lakh as employer's and employees' contribution from the other two concerns without refunding the PF contribution to the airline company.
The prayer was to restrain the EPFO from recovering Rs.90 lakh from the two concerns.
On an appeal by the EPFO, the Principal Subordinate Judge confirmed the lower court's order.
Challenging this, the provident fund authorities preferred an appeal, filed by counsel, S. Vaidyanathan, before the High Court.

The repair was fairly straight-forward. I removed the front of the dryer, lifted the top off, and then released the tension off the belt dy depressing the pulley arm. Once the belt was off, the drum came right out and then it was on to unhooking the wiring from the old motor. Very simple up till this point. The snag came when I went to unthread the impeller fan off of the old motor shaft. It was permanently sealed onto the shaft so I had to cut the old shaft into using a reciprocating saw was a metal-cutting blade. Once this was done the new motor installed easily exactly like the old one was mounted. I had to also purchase a new fan due to the fact that I was unable to remove the cut shaft from the old fan. All parts worked great and the dryer assembled back together easily. Works like a new dryer now.

In the jubilation that followed Ohio State's strain-the-imagination win over Purdue on Saturday, several important considerations were pushed into the background. Yes, the ninth-ranked Buckeyes (8-0, 4-0 Big Ten) stayed unbeaten with the heart-pounding 29-22 overtime win in which they trailed by eight points with 47 seconds left and had the ball at their own 39 and their best player in the hospital. Yet victory doesn't erase all the problems. ''I don't show (any disappointment) because I want our players to enjoy that win, our fans, the student body,'' coach Urban Meyer said. ''It was an incredible night for the Horseshoe and the people in there. ... Coaches are cheering and having a great time, and then deep in your heart, you know that we have a lot of work to do.'' Heading into a pivotal game at Penn State on Saturday, with first place in the Leaders Division at stake, the Buckeyes realize that they need to get a lot better if they want to continue having postgame celebration...

The INR 1.57 billion (US $29.62 million) project will provide computer-aided learning solutions to schools across Himachal Pradesh. The schools involved in the project will acquire digital classrooms equipped with interactive white boards and multimedia content.
618 government senior secondary schools, 848 government high schools and five 'smart schools' in the state will be involved in this project. In addition, 7500 teachers will receive training on how to understand and use these technology solutions, and how to facilitate ICT education of their students.
Digital learning solutions are making significant inroads into India. The government of the state of Punjab recently announced the development of 795 new computer labs in government schools across the state.
This initiative was launched as part of Phase V and VI of a centrally-sponsored ICT scheme in Punjab. During the first four phases, the government focused on enhancing ICT education in schools through new classes and curriculum, and training teachers in effective use of ICT tools in teaching.
ICT-enabled schools in Punjab have been given access to power generators and broadband internet connections to facilitate implementation of state-wide school management of information systems (MIS) and geographic information systems (GIS), which are under development.

THE GOOD: I just got this thing two days ago and have used it twice already-- it's great. It took me about 25 minutes to curl my hair all the way around (I have long hair and a lot of it) the first time, and right around 20 min the second time. I'm thinking after a few more tries I can knock it down to around 15? Which is pretty awesome in my opinion!
THE BAD: The wand is enormous. I couldn't tell by the photo how big this thing was going to be. Even my husband's eyes bulged when he saw it. I'm a small girl with small hands so this was a little hard for me to handle, but I'm getting better and I think I will eventually do fine with it. Also, the instructions say to always clamp the hair with the clamp facing inward toward you, and I disagree with that. If you do it that way on the left side you get clamp marks on your hair! But it works fine that way on the right. So on the LEFT- clamp outward, and on the RIGHT- clamp inward. Remember that :) And lastly be careful not to accidentally click the "GO" button before you're ready. It will start spinning on you and mess you all up. Someone else mentioned their hair getting stuck but I had no issues with that at all. I just made sure the little "kickstand" thing was pushed down so it wasn't in the way at all.
THE UGLY: As I mentioned, the wand is huge. It's also very hot. I had it set at 350 which was the default temp and also what it said was necessary for my type of hair. When I was curling the back of my head, my hand got tired and I unintentionally dropped my wrist to relax. The wand touched the back of my next for a split second and left me a nasty 2 inch burn mark. So, beware of this!
All that said, I love this thing and am so happy I got it. I definitely recommend it!
I was skeptical because of the price, I read many reviews...And I LOVE IT!!! Everytime I use it I get many compliments on my hair. My only gripe is that I would like the curls to last longer, my other friends who use wands their hair lasts 2-3 days and mine makes it to tend of 1 day. But it's a great addition to my routine! I used points because I was not having this price..lol4
Literally this is the greatest invention I have bought for my hair yet! I love the ease of use of this curling iron! I love the beautiful curls the iron produces. It's literally made me love curling my hair again! So thankful for this product. If you're thinking about getting this, then please do it's so awesome!5
I have the straightest hair in the world! This is the only curling iron I've used where my curl stays all day...even the next day (if I don't mess it up too much sleeping). I don't even need to spray my hair with hairspray beforehand. I just curl and go!
Also, it's targeted to ladies with long hair..I have short hair, meaning above my shoulder but below my ears. It's a long tapered bob. I set the speed to low since my hair is shorter.
My hair is also fine, so I appreciate the temperature control. I use it at the lowest setting 310-degrees and I don't feel like I'm burning my hair.
I love this product! Every time I use it I receive compliments. I've started using it once a week! It is worth the investment.
First of all - this wand is much larger than I expected. For a petite person I had no idea If I was going to be able to use it properly. It takes a lot of practice but it does as advertised and creates beachg waves in either direction. I wouldn't bank on this creating perfect waves for an event until you've practiced using the button and your hand position but not having to remember which way to rotate your hand is great. Also, with practice you can get other types of curls so I'm going to keep using mine and hope that this is finally a curling wand I can keep using for a long time!4
This is by far the best beauty instrument I have in my bathroom.
I use this every single day and every single day I get some sort of complement on my hair. Its so simple to use and so hard to burn yourself (and I'm a klutz).
I will never go back to a simple wand. This is worth every penny!
I have always worn my long hair stick straight because curling it was too difficult, and after all the work, the curls would fall out. After reading the reviews here on Birchbox, I thought the Beachwaver might be different, and boy was it ever! It was so easy to use, its really fool proof, and it left me with gorgeous curls! They did fall out a bit as the day wore on, but the lovely waves were just as beautiful. I had so many compliments on my hair, and honestly it looked just as good as when I have had my hairdresser do it for $40 a pop! Yes, it is a bit expensive, but it really is so worth it! I absolutely LOVE this curling iron!5

MADISON, Wis. By nature, football players are supposed to be tough. Sprain an ankle, rub some dirt on it, get back in the game. Pain is considered weakness, and weakness does not amount to winning.Given the disdain players generally show for sitting out with an injury, it's certainly not unusual for them to play through pain. But University of Wisconsin linebacker Ethan Armstrong is taking that concept to a whole new level.Last Saturday, Armstrong suffered a dislocated right kneecap during the fourth quarter against Purdue. The injury was bad enough that coaches wondered on the sideline if his season was over."When the normal person hears a dislocation of a kneecap, you're thinking he's done," Badgers linebackers coach Andy Buh said.But not only is Armstrong upright this week. He's been fully cleared to play against Minnesota in the annual battle for Paul Bunyan's Axe. Clearly, Armstrong's pain tolerance is higher than most. "It was pretty ugly," Armstrong said of the injury. "It j...

This is a very central, but private, location in the small fishing village of Tarcoles. It's an oceanfront property with a beautiful view of the Pacific and you are able to watch magnificent sunsets from the large covered front porch or raised gazebo. Scarlet macaws fly over morning and evening going to and from their feeding grounds and often spend time throughout the day in the trees on and around the property. You can walk on the beach for miles, sometimes without seeing another soul! Less than a 10 minute drive to the north is the Tarcoles River where you often see huge crocodiles basking in the sun.
The house is very comfortable and has a lovely bar on the front porch. Both front and back have large covered areas to sit under and relax, after a busy day of sightseeing. As an added bonus, our English speaking manager is available to help you out with car rentals, tours or anything else that you need.
Professionally managed with a personal touch by a property owner who cares!
Area : Our manager is very helpful. She will even stock the fridge before you arrive!
You can buy fresh fish for your supper, right off the boats, from the Cooperativa only a two minute walk down the road or, if you prefer, you can go to one of the many restaurants within a few minutes drive. For all your grocery needs, Jaco boasts a new, very modern grocery store.
We are five minutes from Carara Biological Reserve where you are able to hike for hours and view the nesting boxes of the macaws. You will also see many other varieties of birds and animals.
We are only 20 minutes north of Jaco, a major surfing area, and an easy one hour and 45 minute drive north of the beautiful Manuel Antonio Park where you can see white-faced and spider monkeys swinging through the trees, or perhaps a sloth, moving in slow motion through the branches.
If you are looking for a home away from home, where you can get in touch with nature & see the real Costa Rica, look no further than 'Casa Sammie.
Amenities and Activities: We now have a raised gazebo at the side of the house for amazing views of the Pacific & the sunset. At the back is a large covered patio and a beautiful private pool. We've recently added a bodega next to the house with an additional bathroom and a roomy bedroom that sleeps 2 more people. Very nice & private.
Phone, Satellite TV, Full Kitchen, Microwave, Coffee Maker, Refrigerator, Blender, Toaster Oven, Cooking Utensils provided, Linens and towels provided, Clothes Washer, Charcoal Grill (BBQ), Maid Service available for a small fee, Hot Showers & hot water in the kitchen, Air Conditioners in two of the bedrooms.
Activities: Hiking in Carara Park, Golf, Fishing, Wildlife Viewing, Horseback Riding, Sightseeing, Swimming, Surfing, Birdwatching, Zip Line Canopy Tours, Butterfly Farm, Gorgeous Waterfall - hike to the bottom and swim in the natural pools, Crocodile Tours.
Area: We are only a 1 1/4 hr. drive from the airport in San Jose and, as we are in a central location, it is easy to take many tours and excursions
Tours, Shopping and More Photos : Don't miss a tour with Tico-Style Tours. Gino is a neighbour who will take you - fishing for a day; to beautiful white sand beaches for a swim; snorkelling, where you will see an amazing assortment of tropical fish; jigging for fish; touring the coastline; diving for lobster, which he will cook for you, along with the fish that you've caught, on a grill at a private beach; to visit a waterfall; or, he will put together a tour including all or any of the above. His wife, Maria, is an excellent cook who will deliver your supper right to the house or come in and cook for you. We highly recommend them. You'll have a true Costa Rican experience!
There's a modern grocery store just 15 min. south and Jaco (20 min.) has many great places to shop.
We have lots more photos of the house & surrounding area that we'd be happy to share with you. Just click on the link below for 'more photos of this home and area'. You can also check out our video online by clicking on the 'virtual tour' link below.
We're a Canadian couple, married for 46 years, who have been travelling to Costa Rica several times a year since 2000. We have 3 married children, 5 wonderful grandchildren and assorted grand-dogs.
Larry & Lynn Green purchased this house in 2005
After travelling throughout Costa Rica for 4 years we decided to buy in Tarcoles. Our decision was based on the fact that it's one of the only places left where you see the beautiful Scarlet Macaws every day. Another important factor was that it's located just over one hour from the San Jose airport, which makes it very handy for us, and our guests, to get to. It's also centrally located for easy access to many of the attractions that tourists want to see.
As we're in a small fishing village, not a tourist town or gated community, you will have a chance to see what life in Costa Rica is really like. You'll see fishermen walking down the road with their daily catch, kids playing soccer just down the road, locals swimming in the river at the end of the road, Peepo getting a load of sand with his team of oxen, as well as many other local sights. We have lots of birds, iguanas, butterflys, etc. who come to visit daily, as we've spent time improving the gardens around the pool and at the side of the house in order to attract them. You'll always be surrounded by flowers as you float in the private pool or walk through the property. The views of the sun setting over the ocean, from our raised gazebo, are truly stunning. Many guests have told us that it's the 'room' that they use the most.
Thank you Lynn & Larry for a wonderful January holiday!
For part of our first time in Costa Rica we were very lucky to spend a week with friends who are seasoned birders and who had been to the country twice before. All four of us were delighted with Casa Sammie, with its excellent opportunities for birding on the beach in front, along the river a few steps away and in the trees on the property - not to mention the proximity of Carrara National Park 10 minutes away! It was so nice to come home to this comfortable, clean house and refreshing pool after a morning in the tropical forest for lunch, a swim, and siesta before venturing out for the afternoon. We enjoyed walking around the corner for a meal in the village and being able to buy fresh caught fish and seafood for memorable dinners by candlelight on the patio. We made a point of having our sundowner drinks in the raised gazebo, while watching the sun set over the Pacific. One morning we took a boat along the Tarcoles River with "Fantastic Birding Tours," a smaller local outfit than the ones that search for crocs and they really were fantastic about finding a variety of birds for us.
Patri was an excellent property manager and lovely to deal with, giving us excellent local tips and instant service when the wifi went down temporarily. Ramon kept the pool in top shape in his own unobtrusive way. With the breeze from the ocean and the shaded areas around the house, we didn't find it necessary to use the A/C but it was nice to know it was available if needed.
What a special place this is! We hope to be able to return!
For my first trip to Casa Sammie, it was awesome. There were 5 of us staying in the house; 2 in the guest cottage and 3 in the main house. The house had everything we needed, the pool and grounds were beautiful. It is a 10 minute walk into town for groceries and eating out. There was only one place to eat, Chepes and the food was very good. Communication was a bit tough but otherwise a good experience. We did the crocodile tour and the tram tour in the rain forest. I loved the crocodile tour, only saw 2 crocs but tons of beautiful birds. the boat ride itself was really nice. The guides were very knowledgeable. The tram tour was Ok but didnt see anything to speak of; would pass on that next time. We were supposed to do a day tour to a beach for snorkeling, fishing etc with Gino but it got cancelled 2 days in a row because of wind and cloudy seas. I would suggest booking this trip early in your stay in case the weather changes and you run out of time like we did. Patri was very helpful with any concerns or booking tours. Would definitely go again. Loved it .
I'm finally getting around to writing a review of Casa Sammie, Tarcoles, and the wonderful people we met.
When we arrived at Casa Sammie we were pleasantly surprised to see that our accommodations were just as portrayed on VRBO. The place was beautiful, immaculately kept by Ramon, (he was like a ninja, we never knew when he was there but the grounds and the pool were always kept up), he was great. We were soon greeted by Patrice and she was so nice and helpful with her recommendations she immediately made us feel welcomed. Among the things we did (besides enjoy the beautiful pool and gazebo at Casa Sammie), were two of Patrice's recommended excursions, the Crocodile Safari trip and the day trip with Gino. The crocodile trip was very interesting, and we saw a lot of fauna and crocodiles but our most notable thing we did...a day out with Gino. I'm only allowed so many letters in this post so I can't describe all that we did, but trust me it was awesome. Gino was so knowledgeable and such a great ambassador for Tarcoles and Costa Rica. He came down to Casa Sammie to discuss what we would like to do and we decided on hiking, fishing, and snorkeling. We met him and his cousin "Gato" at his boat the next morning and headed out to a beautiful secluded cove/beach where we hiked up through the rain forest, it was incredible, there was so much to see, an unbelievable diversity of plant life, including a certain tree (Pura Vida Gino). Gino picked up one of the many "halloween crabs" and handed it to my brave daughter, it was a great photo and memory. We next went snorkeling and saw many beautiful fish, it was awesome, when we were done, Gato was waiting for us with some lobsters he hand picked off the ocean floor, then to the beach where Gino and Gato cooked them up...delicious! My son was cool enough to try and surf behind one of Gato's friends fishing boats that happened to be in the cove, but Gato was the man, he surfed behind the boat in style. We went out fishing and then headed back to Tarcoles. Soon Gino came down to the Casa and prepared fresh fish ceviche, my first time to eat it and we all loved it, I'll be making ceviche the Gino way from now on. Maria, Gino's wife, was gracious enough to come down to Sammie and bring a delicious chicken dish she prepared for us and we appreciated that very much. We enjoyed the fact that Jaco was close enough to drive to if we wanted some of the "tourist life", but our stay in Tarcoles was truly Pura Vida! Thank you all!
Casa Sammie and Costa Rica were everything we had hoped for! Our only complaint is that we didn't get to stay longer! We booked our reservations well in advance and therefore had many correspondences with Patri, the property manager. She was unfailingly prompt and incredibly helpful, arranging things at the house (our arrival, car rental, groceries, etc.) as well as a number of tours. She answered a multitude of questions as we prepared for our trip and was kind enough to fax directions to the house to our rental car company! Additionally, she was instrumental in getting our lost luggage to us. Without her persistence in her dealings with American, I suspect we would have been back in the States before the suitcase was delivered!
Casa Sammie is exactly as advertised, convenient, comfortable and very relaxing. We enjoyed the view from the gazebo (I spent many a wonderful morning up there, sipping coffee and listening to the ocean) and the "commute" to the beach couldn't be beat. We loved being in the heart of real Costa Rica and very much enjoyed meeting the locals: breakfast at the local soda, purchasing fish at the Fish Co-op. We especially enjoyed the Tico Tour Patri arranged for us with Gino. He is truly a delight! As is his wife Maria who cooked us dinner after our Tico Tour and brought us traditional tamales on Christmas. We would also highly recommend the Crocodile Tour, Discovery Horseback Tours and a guided tour through Carara (again, thanks go to Patri for arranging our guide- turns out he was Gino's brother!) Manuel Antonio was also nice but quite crowded. I fulfilled my desire to see monkeys and a sloth (two actually) and although I'm not a birder, I may need to become one as I thoroughly enjoyed all our bird sightings, including scarlet macaws, toucans, herons, egrets, anhingas, roseate spoonbills, pelicans...
Thank you Lynn and Larry for sharing your beautiful home with us and thank you Patri for all you did to make us comfortable during our stay!
This was our first stay at Casa Sammie, and hopefully won't be our last. Everyone was great to work with - Lynn and Larry did a great job answering our questions while deciding to rent, Patri was fantastic to work with, and it was a pleasure to watch Ramon caring for Lynn's garden. The pictures are fantastic, but don't begin to live up to the real thing. The house is comfortably furnished and contains everything necessary for a short or extended stay. Casa Sammie sits at the end of a quiet road in the fishing village of Tarcoles, and is a short drive to Jaco for those who prefer the "touristy" feel. Knowing Spanish may be helpful but we got along fine with the dozen or so words we knew. Patri picked up groceries for us before we arrived, so it was really like a home away from home. We did not rent a car, but Patri and Gilbert made sure we got to see everything we were interested in.
During our stay, we rode horses through the Mangrove forest with Kevin, took a crocodile tour (which was incredible), went hiking in Carara National Park and climbed the waterfall, and spent another day at Manuel Antonio. We had plenty of time to wander on the beach, and highly recommend Gino's Tico Style Tours. I don't think anything beats freshly caught lobster grilled on the beach, hearing the monkeys and Toucans in the background, while watching a group of local brothers play soccer on the beach. We celebrated our anniversary while at Casa Sammie, and Patri did a great job helping my husband arrange a sunset dinner at Villa Caletas. To top off the trip, we spent the final day zip lining near Jaco with Rainforest Arial Tram, where we got a lesson about local flora, insects and snakes, which was topped off by zip lining down the mountain. The views were absolutely breathtaking!
Each day was finished off by cooling off in the pool, watching the iguanas in the yard, and watching the scarlet macaws overhead. Yes, we sat at the pool and watched the macaws, which was incredible!
My husband and I have traveled fairly extensively through Europe, the Caribbean, to Canada, and through the US, and frequently rent homes to stay in. Casa Sammie has been the most comfortable accommodating home we have ever rented, and we hope to make this the first of many trips!
For our 7th stay at Casa Sammie we opted for something different-we visited during the last two weeks in November-tail end of the rainy season and we loved it. Yes it rained while we were there, mostly in the afternoon, but the rain never interfered with the enjoyment of our trip. We planned our outings for early morning, which we usually do anyway and we were not rained out once. Did not try dancing in the rain-did try swimming in the rain in the Casa Sammie pool, a wonderful experience though it cannot surpass a full moon night swim. Went for a walk in the rain-a refreshing experience. So if you are planning a trip to Casa Sammie and December to March are booked-try November, you will enjoy it! For this trip we had our friend Sandi join us for her first trip to Costa Rica. One of the pleasures of Tarcoles is the ability to mingle with the locals in a non-tourist setting. Sandi is an avid bingo player so on a Sunday afternoon we went to a fundraising bingo at the Tarcoles school. To be able to make a small contribution to the local community while having an enjoyable outing was heart warming. Special thanks to Lourdes for translating during the bingo games. Having Sandi with us for her first visit gave us an opportunity to re-experience our first trip to Costa Rica in 2007. We did the Jungle Crocodile Safari boat trip again-it was better than we remember from 2007. We had a knowledgeable guide, saw Howler monkeys for the first time, lots of birds and of course crocodiles. We found a great guide, Maurice Vazquez, for a trek in Carara Park. The best way to experience the park is with a guide. Maurice took us on a trail in the north part of the park which offered great opportunity for wildlife viewing - saw Howler monkeys again. Maurice did a great job taking photos through his spotting scope using my Blackberry camera. Keep in mind that these two great outings are only a 10 minute drive from Casa Sammie! Maurice Vazquez: great knowledge+good English=excellent guide. We left his contact information in the Casa Sammie book. Maurice also contributed to a new #1 highlight for our Costa Rica vacations. Maurice took us on a night hike on Playa Heramosa. While a thunderstorm raged far out on the Pacific we got to see a sea turtle laying eggs-repeating a ritual that has gone on for thousands of years. An experience hard to describe in words. What Costa Rica has to offer within a short distance of Casa Sammie never ceases to amaze. We shall return!
DISTANCE FROM NEAREST AIRPORT - 1 1/4 hr. by car --
CAR RECOMMENDED? - Yes --
We are located 1 1/4 hrs. drive west of the international airport in San Jose, in the town of Tarcoles. It is about 20 min. north of the major tourist city, Jaco, which is known for its great surfing. As an alternative, you can also drive from the international airport in Liberia, Guanacaste to Casa Sammie in 2 1/2 hrs.
We recommend that you have a car for more flexibility in visiting the many natural areas and parks within an easy drive of the house, such as the Tarcoles river, Carara Park and spectacular waterfalls. Manuel Antonio Park, a beautiful reserve where you can see monkeys, sloths and iguanas is a scenic 1 3/4 hrs. drive south.
