The London region
London is a leading global city, with strengths in the arts, commerce, education, entertainment, fashion, finance, healthcare, media, professional services, research and development, tourism and transport all contributing to its prominence
London contains four World Heritage Sites: the Tower of London; Kew Gardens; the site comprising the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and St Margaret's Church; and the historic settlement of Greenwich (in which the Royal Observatory marks the Prime Meridian (0° longitude) and GMT).[28] Other famous landmarks include Buckingham Palace, the London Eye, Piccadilly Circus, St Paul's Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Trafalgar Square, Wembley Stadium, and the Shard London Bridge tower. London is home to numerous museums, galleries, libraries, sporting events and other cultural institutions, including the British Museum, National Gallery, Tate Modern, British Library, Wimbledon and 40 theatres. The London Underground is the oldest underground railway network in the world[30] and the second-most extensive (after the Shanghai Metro).
Central London/Zone 2
Canary Wharf is a major business district located in London, United Kingdom. It is one of London's two main financial centres – alongside the traditional City of London – and contains many of the UK's tallest buildings, including the second-tallest (and tallest completed), One Canada Square
Canary Wharf is located in the West India Docks on the Isle of Dogs in the Borough of Tower Hamlets in East London. The West India Docks once formed part of the busiest port in the world

"Comfortable and Convenient"
The apartment had all conveniences we needed, along with a space for the car. The neighbourhood felt safe, and the walk to the supermarket (ASDA) via the inner city 'farm' was interesting. The rail connections to the city attractions were close enough, and we used the all day travel cards (9 pounds), which proved good value.

This is a private house – not an apartment building – with an exit to a common closed courtyard.
The house is composed from two floors: on the ground floor there is the hall, living room and a well equipped kitchen with a rear exit to a private garden/courtyard.
A wooden staircase leads up to the top floor which consists of a large master bedroom with a cozy and comfortable king-size bed, a children's room with a bunk bed and a bathroom.
The house is simple, but tidy, well-maintained and includes most amenities and comforts.
Prior to booking the owner reassured that the house would be clean and that the WI-FI would work perfectly, and so it was: the apartment was spotless and the WI-FI connection was terrific.
The apartment is situated in the better area of Londons Docklands. Since personally I'm not a fan of crowding in the over-priced and noisy center of town, I considered this to be rather a great advantage, especially since the house is within a very short walking distance to all means of convenient transportation to the center of town and in specific to the pier, where, within minutes, you can take a public boat down the Themes to almost anywhere in the city, bypassing cities heavy traffic.
But what really made this stay special was the owner, Abdur, himself. Abdur spared no effort to ensure I would enjoy my stay, without being onerous:
Although I eventually arrived very late, only towards 02:30 AM, Abdur arrived at the house within minutes and showed no resentment as to the unexpected late arrival.
He helped me out with a referral to a very good and particularly cheap airport transfer company and had terrific recommendations as to restaurants and other places of interest.
When I got stuck in the city without knowing how to return, Abdur took over and instructed me after investing some time and effort in inquiries.
Upon checkout I had a problem of over-weighted baggage. Once again, Abdur agreed to take care of mailing part of my belongings to my address abroad.
Thank you, Abdur, not only for a terrific stay but also for the privilege to meet someone like you.

"Great host an great location."
Great host and great location. Recommended for a party of 3 or 4. Easy accessibility for buses and DLR to The Docklands and into town. Walking distance to Greenwich. Just by the river, which has a view over to the O2 Center. Mudchute farm and a great Asda also a few minutes walk away.

This year . . . like most other years . . . I planted a variety of hot peppers in my garden.
Because peppers are a low acid food they need to be pressure canned.
This is my first year growing and canning beans, so this is all new to me. I'm not new to canning but I am newish to pressure canning. I was surprised when I noticed that in some of my jars a lot of the water had boiled out. Why is that?
Canning green beans is just about as easy as growing them. They are a great starter crop for a new gardener and they are also a good vegetable to learn how to pressure can with.
So simple yet so delicious!
An easy way to preserve your garden fresh tomatoes to enjoy all year long!

In the past few years, there has been a move by school districts across the country toward full-day kindergarten programs. Now, in the Guilderland Central School District, discussions have begun to examine the possibility of implementing a full-day program.
Right now, what we've done is pulled together an advisory committee, said Nancy Andress, assistant superintendent for instruction. The committee, which consists of three board of education members, principals from around the district, kindergarten teachers, PTA volunteers, and early childhood education providers, is in the process of discussing the benefits and drawbacks a full-day kindergarten program would have for Guilderland schools.
"The focus of the group is to look at the need for full-day kindergarten, what are the resources needed, and what are the staffing concerns," said Andress.
Statistics at the National Center for Education Statistics Web site (http://nces.ed.gov) suggest that full-day kindergarten programs benefit children by increasing the amount of time spent focused on key subjects such as mathematics and reading.
So far, Andress said she supports the full-day program.
"I think it would offer expanded opportunities for students. It's an [additional] two-and-a-half-hour program; it allows for enrichment," she said. "It's really a developmental approach, offering them more earlier."
Harriet Fogarty, who teaches kindergarten at Lynnwood Elementary, agrees. "We already have a wonderful program, but this gives us a chance to develop concepts deeper. It could expand an already developed program," she said.
The program would use things already in place but on a greater, more focused scale.
"We would be developing their stamina and grade-school behaviors," said Fogarty.
However, Fogarty recognizes that the shift from half-day kindergarten to full-day could be taxing.
"There are always the adjustments, but we have adjustments all the time," she said. "The pace is very different."
Nonetheless, she said she remains supportive of the potential need for a full-day program because it benefits all students and gives teachers a chance to focus on children who are at risk by giving them more time to work.

Comments about 42cc Variable-Speed Gas BackPack Blower:
Use the blower to blow off driveways and streets of grass cuttings and leaves, etc. Blower is a bit heavier than I thought, but if you adjust it properly the weight isn't so bad. It is definitely better than carrying around a hand held gas blower for a long period of time.

Comments about 42cc Variable-Speed Gas BackPack Blower:
Great starter in cold or summer. Actually it made leaf removal "fun". Very comfortable to wear, little vibration, (almost relaxing). I do wear ear protection, but the operating sound isn't bad. East to transport from place to place. Just remove the nozzle and it fits in the car. Wish I had one years ago, when I hated leaf removal.

Comments about 42cc Variable-Speed Gas BackPack Blower:
This unit is light weight yet offers good power. The ergonomic design of the harness makes it easy to lift and strap on, yet comfortable for extended uses. The motor is mounted on springs which dampens vibrations. The unit is exceptionally quiet considering the motor is so close to your head.

Microsoft delays Office 2007 again
- Related Stories
Piecing together Windows VistaNovember 8, 2006
Microsoft puts Office preview onlineJune 26, 2006
The software maker now plans to finish the code for the revamped Office suite by the end of the year, rather than in October, the date it set in March. The company said in March that it would wait to start selling Office until January, to coincide with the launch of Windows Vista. Now, though, it says Office may not be ready for store shelves until "early 2007."
News.com Poll
"Based on internal testing and the beta 2 feedback around product performance, we are revising our development schedule to deliver the 2007 system release by the end of year 2006, with broad general availability in early 2007," a Microsoft representative said in an e-mail. "Feedback on quality and performance will ultimately determine the exact dates."
It was not immediately clear how the Office delay would affect Microsoft's Vista plans or a potential joint product launch. Many outsiders have already said they expect the Windows update to also be delayed beyond January, but Microsoft has yet to acknowledge a further delay.
"We are assessing the impact this timing change will have to our specific launch plans," a Windows unit representative said, adding that Microsoft is "still targeting January for general consumer availability."
Gartner analyst Michael Silver noted that the delay in Office could hit some businesses hard, particularly those that signed volume license contracts in late 2003. Such Enterprise Agreement or Software Assurance contracts offer, among other things, the right to any new versions of the product that come out over a period of time, typically three years.
Video: Microsoft Office 2007 beta 2
Changes in Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook
"Each month they miss is another group of customers that renewed EA or SA in 2003 that got no new version of Office for their payments," Silver said. "It was just March when Microsoft emphatically stated that Office 2007 would be on the October price list. Even at close range, they can't forecast this stuff."
Microsoft said that the final delivery of both Office and Vista will be dependent on the code reaching certain quality levels. It said it expects to release the first, near-final release candidate of Windows Vista in the third quarter of this year.
Microsoft said earlier Thursday that it had nearly reached its self-imposed limit for testers of the current Windows Vista beta, with plans to stop allowing new downloads after Friday. In addition to the publicly available beta 2 version of Office, Microsoft this week made available a Web-based test version of the software.

- There's no delay. OpenOffice 2.0 handles everything.
- It does the same thing as MS Office. Has the general "office" interfaces of MS and Lotus. And it's encryption is tougher than MS. And it's out now and it's FREE. Best of all, it doesn't send private info from your PC to MS.

- Really? I use a lot of Automation
- and COM interfaces into Office. Can I just put OO in and have it work? (the answer is, of course, no).
I have a lot of complex documents (Word docs with embedded Excel pulling data from ODBC sources). Can it handle that? (again, no; at least not without basically recreating the doc)
OO is a great program. I use it at home. If you just need a type writer, your insane to pay for Office. But please don't make claims that are blatantly false.
Also, Office doesn't send data from my PC to MS either. Even WGA called home to read info from home, not send info to it. Just another lie to prop up your ignorant bigotry.

- I don't understand you people that complain about how Microsot never delievers on time; if they don't deliever on time, you complain. If they do and there are bugs, you complain. I'd much rather wait a few more weeks for a good product than use a shoddy product just so they can ship on time.
Get over it, it's a large company with large products that have large ship cycles.

Microsoft hasn't come up with a must have Office release for half a decade now. In fact, the newer releases gets more complicated to do the same thing. And the spreadsheet/doc file sizes gets larger for no apparent reason.
- Like Link Flag
- "if you were counting on this release..."
- ... absolutely not; a review of both OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 and the Online Version of MS Office has indicated that their developers have of late now decided to talk with the "financial" folks and they have hurried to replace the formulas that they both might have overlooked when they were "copying" from Lotus SmartSuite. Now, what happens to the users who do not have a clue about the meaning and relevance of terminologies such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net Present Value (NPV), Discounted Cash Flow Rate Of Return (DCFROR)...; and, how many users will be utilizing these newly integrated formulas. Now, also add the time (of the learning curves) and the cost of training for this product (MS Office) roll-out!!! Lastly, the big question is - when will developers from Open Office.org and Microsoft sit down with the "international financial and economic folks" regarding the integration of the functionalities for the conversion to Economic Rate of Return (ERR) not that they have (the developers from those companies in question) come to understand the values of the former (IRR, NPV, DCFROR...)! Maybe I may be in a better position to six months from now if updates by then fulfill current limitations!

Tony Kushner, Post-Zionist Mascot
The standard-bearer for the Jewish left?
American Jews are shifting their "mental models" of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict away from unquestioning support of Israel, according to Merle Lefkoff, president of the Santa Fe-based Madrona Institute, which apparently applies "the science of Complexity to the transformation of peacemaking and diplomacy." Of course, that's been happening for years, but Lefkoff says recent news from the occupied territories—especially the recent Gaza war—has brought things to a tipping point. So what's the pole people are moving toward? Apparently, she says, it's Tony Kushner, whom she quotes as an advocate of a pluralist, democratic, but not necessarily "Jewish" Israeli state. Whether or not that's really where American Jewish opinion is going—Lefkoff provides plenty of evidence that as recently as three years ago the American Jewish right wing didn't like Kushner, but she doesn't provide any that they do now—there's the bigger question of, why Kushner? He's a political playwright, sure, but his most extensive work on Israel-Palestine is an essay collection he edited six years ago. Maybe Lefkoff chose him precisely because he's not a political guru or a religious leader but instead an extraordinary writer who's something of an ordinary lefty Jew. Or maybe, in keeping with the New Age vibe of her institute, she just decided he's the keeper of the Jewish left's neshama.

Re: Thoughts on 34 Citation
I've owned an Irwin 34 '79 for 6+ years and have had a great time with this boat in the Chesapeake bay. Great cabin layout and she sails well to the wind. Her for triangle is huge, I have the keel cb set up and she is a bit tender, in 15+ kts you'll be reefing the main. When I got the boat there was a lot of water damage to the finish carpentry in the cabin due to a poor mounting design of the portlights. I ripped out all of the wood paneling,mounted the portlights directly to the fiberglass and replaced the interior wood work. There have been some structural issues in her past. At some point her sb shroud dislodged the small wooden bulkhead it is strapped to. The chain plates on both sides were then extended to tie into the fiberglass as well as the bulkheads. A survey was done after the repair and said it is now stronger then the original design. I have not had any problems. So after two winters of work i have her pretty dry an looking good. Curlew is a great bay boat and the yanmar 2qm is bullet proof...knock on wood

The Gimp is dead, the Gimp is dead...:r
Have fun roasting, and smoking. Should help pass a little bit of time for you.
Hmmmm. Vintage Popaire ****. :D
So have you had a chance to roast anything yet?
My name is dyj48.
I've been roasting for a week.
Now I can't get my mind off of coffee.
Everytime I go into the kitchen, I open one of the glass air tight jars filled with coffee. I smell the incredible aroma and just die.
I was hooked by these terrible people in a cigar forum of all places!!!!
Now I haunt thrift stores looking for popcorn poppers.
My coffee maker is a gevelia with paper filters.
My grinder is a cheap grund wirlly thing.
My roaster is a Hamilton Beach Pumper and now a Westbend Poppery II.
My coffee of choice is Kona which is feeling very embarrassed by my equipment.
Gevalia sells so-so to bad coffee at a high price but gives away excellent coffeemakers. Go figure. I used my Gevalia dripper this morning with the usual fine results.
Maybe, one day, you'll postpone a box of cigars in favor of a burr grinder. If you stick with homeroast, Gevalia dripper and whirley blade (do you "shake and pulse"?), however, your coffee should be very, very good. IMO. :)
Dang, down the slippery slope...
Just got a cusinart burr grinder from Costco for 30 dollars yesterday. It's loud but grinds great!!!
My friends,
Just roasted my first batches today: Ethiopia Idido Misty Valley. City roast (I think) -- a bit past first "crack" on my air popper.
Good stuff. Very fragrant and tasty. No high tech equipment yet--just my imagination.
I didn't get any oiliness on the beans and they didn't get very dark in color compared to the dark-looking beans I'm used to seeing. Is that typical for home roasters of my ilk?
Gotta build up some skills to justify buying a pound of the COE #1 Guatamalean(sp?).
Coffee--yum. Christmas is coming--coffee and cigars...
p.s. What exactly is SC/CO? I can't find it anywhere I've looked (how do you like that qualification).
To quote Mr. Maduroo, Bwaa Ha Ha Haaaa...I know I can't do it as well as Dan, but anyway, welcome to the slope...heh, heh, heh.
I think SC stands for stir crazy, a kind of round popcorn popper and CO stands for convection oven. So most of these (oops I mean, we) coffee fanatics use this SC/CO combination, the bottom of the SC round pan and a convection oven top to cover it to develop a larger makeshift coffee roaster. It roasts about a pound at a time versus my popper which roasts about 4 oz.
Ok, all you old hands can chime in now and correct me if I'm wrong....
ps. check catfish2 thread on convection oven as there's some discussion of it there.
hello, although i am new here i recognize many names i haven't seen in some time, it's good to see ya'll again. Introduction- i go by ferdelance on all boards, it's my namesake, LOL . i was a professional roaster before going into the home roasting market, i started my career in Columbia, SC, then went on to become a roastmaster in New Orleans, took a break to work for Peets in CA as a Trainer, before going back to New Orleans to roast more. then Katrina washed me out of NOLA and a good friend (Russ) called and offered me a job at Coffee bean corral , as a cupper, sample roaster, tester, network, computer geek. having nothing better to do i took it and we moved CBC to NC this past year, where i now reside. so in all i been roasting for now on 26 year, yep i am begginning to feel my age these days as well, LOL. it's nice to be here, i see ya'll already been discussing CBC. that's cool, i just want to come aboard a a home roaster, not as an employee of CBC. but i can tell ya'll what's going on from time to time if ya'll want. BTW the UPS check ship is off the site too buggy and as of last night the great pumpkin lowered all the prices for the holidays.

What else was Wlad supposed to do? The guy was even showing frustration after Haye continued to take a knee after every time they got close together. Wlad followed him and was aiming for a ko, yet because Haye REFUSED to fight, this is Wlad's fault as well... SMH

So it spreads. Everyone connected with Haye/Booth are liars first and foremost, so it's not surprising. I see that he would still prefer-as he says- to watch haye than to watch Klitschko.
Well he has just had a night of what he enjoys most, watching Haye, and is STILL complaining. You just can't please some folks.
i think me've had an overload of Haye for a while, let's send in some old age nags to eat him down a bit, Hay(e) isn't digestible by human beings.

I am more impressed by a guy that keeps his mouth shut and delivers than one that opens his mouth constantly and can't deliver.
Hey at least the Klits look like and perform like athletes compared to a lot of these fat slobs in the HW division.
What gets me is that people get mad at the guy that is pressing the fight. How does that make sense?
And I am not even a Klit. fan like that

Hard to look great against a guy who fights as negative as Haye did. Valuev found that out as well.
Vitali will knock Haye out, so Golden Boy better watch what they wish for.

Finley's walks will be anti-war, "because even though we were attacked, we can still feel peace." Yet they won't be political. No signs. No slogans. Sometimes a cause was a disguise, she said. It disguised the reality of the emotion.
And she was there to take in the feelings. That, in a way, is what her work as a performance artist has always been about. Look at what's horrific, and work to turn it overat least in yourself. Repeatedly misrepresented by right-wingers during the '90s culture war as a deviant banshee, Finley actually specializes in plumbing and articulating emotion, and over the past year she's been crafting ways to respond to September 11: with the walk, with her current work-in-progress, The Distribution of Empathy, and, until last week, with an NYU class she taught, "Creative Response: Creating Art Amidst Human Tragedy."
Finley decided to teach a class related to 9-11 because of her own experiences with tragedy (meaning, for example, her father's suicide). She knows how trauma can make you question your art. The course description for "Creative Response" asked: Has your artistic vision changed since September 11? Finley paraphrased it more bluntly: "Does your work feel meaningless now?" Offered late in the fall-registration process, the class filled quickly with students ranging from sophomores to grad students to State Senator Tom Duane, who was auditing.
By chance, they first convened on September 10. As students began to talk about where they'd been a year before and what had happened to their work, one of them experienced what Finley called "a panic attack" and ran from the room, never to return. Then, partway through the session, the building was evacuated for security reasons. Finley never learned why.
This class felt different from any other she'd taught, "because of where everyone started. A lot of people felt blocked." Finley showed them work in which artists transformed pain into compassion, for example, Mitchell's Death, the Linda Montano video in which Montano talks about her ex-husband's passing; she has acupuncture needles inserted in her face. Finley also introduced them to the gay-themed work of David Wojnarowicz, talked about the horrors of World War I manifesting in surrealism, and instructed each student to make a Bible.
But she tailored other assignments individually. When senior Morgan Schechter, a film major, told Finley that she had shut down and didn't have a creative response to the tragedy, Finley told her, "OK, work on non-response." Puzzled over what that meant, Schechter decided to make a video about solitude. "I'd never done any video art before, and I got a lot out of it. It opened up the possibilities of how to communicate with image instead of story line and dialogue."
Neely Benn, a sophomore music theater major, said that after September 11, "I just started questioning why I was at the ballet bar. And why we were singing. And why analyze scripts?" Finley told her to paint. "It was crazy," Benn said. "I can barely draw stick figures." But one Sunday afternoon, she ended up drawing for hours and made a picture book called Things We Didn't Know When We Were Ate. When she brought it to class, Schechter asked if she could turn it into a video, and the two collaborated on a final project about the loss of innocence.
Many students, blocked or not, tried things in this class they'd never done before. A playwright performed. A directing student did an ordeal piece. "The unfamiliar allows you a freedom," said Finley. "People feel very self-indulgent in times like this. They don't feel like they're worthy of expressing themselves when there's such a large event happening."
Graduate student Rebecca Kreinen said her response to the World Trade Center attack was extreme. "I was literally in shock for months." She knew two people who perished in the north tower, but she read everyone else's obituary too, and still leaves flowers at her local firehouse. Kreinen said that while many in Finley's class had responded to 9-11 with "I didn't know what to do," her own response had been to openly grieve. "I've been in front of the class saying, 'I still think about it,' and everybody sighs, but it's OK because in Karen's class, I had the permission to be that person and not apologize and just allow other people to have their response. I'm actually able to work with it now," she said, "and I'm not crying all the time."
Finley thinks the shock of the 9-11 attack plugged some people into unresolved issues they'd previously buried. Most of the class moved past talk of the collapsing towers pretty quickly and on to eating disorders, sexual identity crises, i.e., things we dread facingFinley's specialty. "I try to just give a road map for how to use those feelings, how to turn them into art," she explains. "It's like seeing the forest through the trees. And I know the trees."

Satyros hoc excitat
Et Dryadum choreas
Redivivis incitat
Hoc ignibus Napeas
Hoc Cupido concitus
Hoc amor innovatur
Hoc ego sollicitus
Hoc mihi me furatur
Si quis amans per amare
Mereri posset amari
Posset Amor michi velle
Mederi dando beari
This dance excites Satyrs
And Dryads
It incites the return to the living
This was written above the fires
This was fired by Cupid
This is to renew by the love
This was agitating me
This was stealing me from myself
If any lover could
Be loved by loving
Could love be the will
Healing me by giving the blessing

This is a good try for the Latin, but your translation is a bit off - no offence . Choreas and Napeas are to be taken together as accusative plural, both referring to the Dryadic choruses. The result would render the sentence roughly into English as.." This (Spring) excites the Satyrs and this incites the Dryadic choruses (wood-land Nymphs) with renewed fire.

"My first quality IEM purchase was the Hifiman RE-400 when they first came out. I was used to low end Skullcandy sets at the time, and I really wanted to see what "reference sound" sounded like for a reasonable price of under $100. At the time, I felt anything above that price was absurd for me to purchase. From the first listen, the RE-400 showed me what quality sounded like. I was..." --bhazard

The Dahisar police have arrested two wanted chain snatchers who even paid their rent in the form of stolen jewellery and used their landlord's bike to zip around the city and rob people. The landlord, who took them in after they gave up their jobs in Delhi to come to the city in the hopes of making quick money, has also been arrested.
According to the police, Salim Ansari, 21, and Saif Khan, 19, who worked in Delhi as tailors, came to the city a few weeks ago. "The two did not have a place to stay. So they lived with a man called Nabi Yahya Khan who lived in Govind Nagar chawl in Malad East. They were new to the city and did not have any money. So they offered to pay Nabi Khan a share of the booty, and he agreed to let them stay," said PSI Sanjay Pawar.
"Nabi Khan, who also worked as a tailor, gave his second-hand bike to the two, who used it to rob people. They then gave some of the chains to Khan," said inspector Pawar.
Two days ago, when the two chain snatchers were roaming around in their bike, they were caught by the police near Dahisar check naka. "We found two gold chains in their possession worth several lakhs. We are checking for more booty from the trio. Nabi Khan also has several cases of theft against him," added Pawar.
The three were produced in front of the magistrate court and remanded in police custody. "The duo used to target older women, especially near temples and desolate places. We are also checking whether they are part of a bigger gang," said another officer.
