A proposed 38,204-square-foot shopping center on the site of the former Rolle Brothers Farm Equipment property on Route 58 received re-approvals last week from the Zoning Board of Appeals for some variances it originally received two years ago.
A proposed 38,204-square-foot shopping center on the site of the former Rolle Brothers Farm Equipment property on Route 58 received re-approvals last week from the Zoning Board of Appeals for some variances it originally received two years ago.
You don't have to be a 5,000-square-foot farm market for Riverhead Town to cite you for violating town code. In fact, your main draw could be as small as a hummingbird or box turtle.
While Riverhead Town Board members recently split on their decision to take the owners of a Jamesport farm stand to court, Riverhead Town's code enforcement unit recently issued notices of violation to The Baiting Hollow Hummingbird Sanctuary and Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons in Jamesport because neither operation is a permitted use under the zoning of the property where it's located, according to Riverhead town attorney Bob Kozakiewicz, who is in charge of the code enforcement unit.
Supervisor Sean Walter said he couldn't speak about specifics of the enforcement actions, but echoed Mr. Kozakiewicz' sentiments.
"It's not our intention to chase away the hummingbirds or the turtles. We just need people to come into compliance," Mr. Walter said.
Mr. Kozakiewicz said the turtle rescue organization has been issued a summons in town Justice Court because it is not a permitted use in the Agriculture Protection Zone in which it's located.
As for the hummingbird sanctuary, Mr. Kozakiewicz said a notice of violation was issued in order to cover the town in the event neighbors of the sanctuary filed a lawsuit, which they have since done.
The notice of violation states that operation of a hummingbird sanctuary that is open to the public is a prohibited use, and that continuing that use would require a variance from the Zoning Board of Appeals as well as site plan approval from the Planning Board. It further states that if no remedy to the violation is made before Jan. 18, the town may follow through with legal action, though Mr. Kozakiewicz said he does not intend to and the town has not issued a summons to the hummingbird sanctuary.
Councilwoman Jodi Giglio said she was surprised to hear that the town had taken any action at all against the organizations.
"Are you kidding me?" she said when told of the enforcement actions. "We have overcrowded houses all throughout this town and code enforcement is writing tickets to the hummingbird guy?"
Ms. Giglio said she was unaware of the notices issued to the Baiting Hollow Hummingbird Sanctuary, run by Paul Adams on his property on Sound Avenue, and Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons, run by Karen Testa Lombardo from a home on Manor Lane in Jamesport.
Mr. Adams has run the sanctuary for more than a dozen years at his Sound Avenue property , which overlooks Long Island Sound and where he has planted flowers that attract hummingbirds. The sanctuary is open to the public only during the month of August and, according to the orgnization's website, does not accept donations or an admission fee. Mr. Adams requires visitors to sign a waiver.
Nonetheless, a group of neighbors living along the road leading to the property have recently filed a lawsuit against Mr. Adams and the hummingbird sanctuary.
The lawsuit was filed by Frederick and Debra Terry, Kamal and Sabita Bherwani, and Shawn Hamilton against Paul and Rafael Adams.
Mr. Adams said they are seeking to have the sanctuary closed and they are seeking $3 million in damages. The lawsuit, filed Dec. 23, was not on file at the county center as of Tuesday morning, except for the summary page identifying the litigants. Anthony Tohill, the plaintiffs' attorney, did not return a call seeking comment and Mr. Terry could not be reached for comment by presstime.
Mr. Adams said the lawsuit raises two key questions: "Does the town code permit me to maintain my property in a natural state as a bird sanctuary? And does the code permit me to receive invited visitors at my residence there, via the established, deeded and surveyed right of way from Sound Avenue?"
He believes the answer to both questions is yes.
As for the turtle rescue, Charles Cuddy, the attorney for Ms. Lombardo, said she brings turtles to the site that have been injured and need to be rehabilitated. She is a licensed wildlife rehabilitator and her work is recognized and endorsed by the state, Mr. Cuddy said, adding that she does all the work as a volunteer and receives no money for it.
There are usually about a dozen turtles on the property at any one time, he said, and she has other volunteers who help.
When a report of an injured turtle comes in, Ms. Lombardo goes out and brings it back to the Manor Lane house.
"The rehabilitation consists of medicating the turtles. It doesn't consist of her conducting any surgery," Mr. Cuddy said at a June 27 town Zoning Board of Appeals hearing on the turtle rescue operation. Turtles that need surgery are taken to a veterinarian, he said.
"She keeps turtles that are essentially without any odor, without any noise. They don't do anything to the neighborhood," Mr. Cuddy said. "They are without any impact that I can see, and I've been there many times."
Mr. Cuddy said there are many wildlife rehabilitators in the state and many of them operate out of homes.
The turtle rescue had gone before the town Zoning Board of Appeals last year seeking an interpretation as to whether a such an operation can be considered an accessory use.
There was one hearing, during which no one raised any opposition to the operation, and the ZBA application was withdrawn a few weeks later. ZBA members had indicated they wanted to inspect the facility.
Mr. Cuddy said it was withdrawn because one ZBA member, whom he didn't identify, had indicated that he or she would not support the application.
Mr. Kozakiewicz said he is not aware of any complaints from neighbors about the turtle rescue operation. Mr. Cuddy said one person has complained about it.
The Justice Court case against the turtle rescue is still pending, Mr. Kozakiewicz said.
Political science students, take note: Once again, the Zoning Board of Appeals will rule this week on an application of long-term importance to Riverhead and the surrounding areas. Town Board members regularly get lots of visibility, but it's worth reminding readers and residents that Thursday night's decision on plans for a 34-acre substance abuse research campus will truly shape the future of the Enterprise Park at Calverton. The ZBA should support the application. (more…)
Supporters of a multi-million dollar addiction research and treatment facility being proposed for private property at the Enterprise Park at Calverton spoke in support of the project before the Riverhead Board of Zoning Appeals Thursday night.
The group of researchers, doctors, and scientists that attended the meeting said the center offers a unique opportunity to not only treat those suffering from drug or alcohol addiction, but also develop more effective methods of treatment faster.
Among those supporters was Stephen Dewey, who said he's studie the science of addiction for more than three decades.
"What you have before you is kind of a lifelong dream," Mr. Dewey said. "If I could design a center, after 30 years of experience, I'd design a center just like this."
The Calverton Addiction Research Education: New York, or CARE: NY, facility would feature a 34-acre campus and include 41,000 square feet of housing, 20,000 square feet of offices and 15,000 square feet of indoor recreation like a gymnasium and a pool, project officials said.
It's proposed for property currently owned by Jan Burman, just north of River Road and just west of Connecticut Avenue.
The facility would have a maximum of 130 beds for volunteers looking to get treatment, said attorney Vincent Messina of Central Islip, who spoke on behalf of the center's founders. Patients would stay at the facility for up to 120 days and would pay for treatment privately, though Mr. Messina said new federal regulations may allow insurance to cover the costs.
Mr. Messina assured the board that the center would not be part of the criminal justice system, saying the goal of the facility is to research and make breakthroughs in the treatment of addiction — not serve as a way for convicts to get reduced sentences.
The facility would cost roughly $10 million to build, and Mr. Messina told the board the project was expected to lose money in its first few years. He said the facility would not use the nonprofit status of any companies operating in the center to get tax breaks.
Mr. Messina promised that if a nonprofit were required by law to get a tax exemption, the owners of the center would pay the difference in price to ensure that no tax revenues are lost.
The attorney told the board that 64 percent of the facility was already covered under "as of right" use in the zoning code.
The center would need zoning exemptions made mainly for the housing component of the research facility.
Mr. Dewey told the board that more children and young adults will die on Long Island this year from opiate abuse than from alcohol abuse.
ZBA chairman Fred McLaughlin acknowledged the need for more addiction treatment.
"The opiates are just out of control," he said.
Andrew Drazan, the facility's founder and CEO, told the board there is "so much more to learn" in the field of addiction treatment.
Mr. Drazan said he was inspired to build the facility by his own experiences at a young age; his mother died due to addiction when he was a child, he previously told the News-Review.
He told the board that there has been a shift in the approach to addiction and addiction treatment.
"[This is] no longer looked at as moral failing," he said. "It's considered a disease and it's going to be treated as such."
The ZBA adjourned the center's request to the Dec. 12 meeting.

Foxwood Village residents will hold a rally along Route 58 Tuesday to speak out against the developers of the Shops at Riverhead shopping center being built next to the retirement community.
Residents have been up in arms ever since the developers clear-cut the entire property, which stretches north from Route 58, even on land for which there are no current plans to build.
Just a small wooden fence now divides the shopping center property and Foxwood homes. Residents have also complained about the fence.
The developers had been given a deadline by the town by which to submit new plans for a proposed buffer separating the properties, and although they did file new plans by the town's deadline, town attorneys had said those plans were insufficient.
The town is threatening to revoke the building permits for the project, which will feature a Costco Wholesale as its anchor store.
"They have just stalled the town with extension after extension and they have not kept their promise to make it right," resident Paul Spina said as the reason for the rally along Route 58. "We will be asking that they stop stalling and improve both the berm and the fence."
The event will run from 10 a.m. to noon.
After much public opposition, the other half of The Shops at Riverhead developer's request for variances to Riverhead's lighting regulations was denied Thursday night by the Zoning Board of Appeals, which had rejected the first half of that application two weeks ago.
The developers of the proposed shopping center, which will feature a Costco Warehouse store with gas pumps in front of it, were previously denied in their request for variances from the town's "dark skies" lighting code in which they sought permission to install lights in the shopping center parking lot that were 25 feet high instead of the permitted 16 feet.
The applicants said the shopping center would only need 61 light poles instead of 165, if the variance were granted.
Residents from the adjacent Foxwood Village and Millbrook communities, already angry about The Shops at Riverhead having clear-cut all the trees on its property right up to the neighboring property lines, turned out in force at several meetings to urge the ZBA to reject the lighting variance, which the ZBA did at their its meeting.
The other half of the ZBA variance request, which was not rejected at the last meeting and was instead held over to Thursday night's meeting, called for more lighting than is permitted under the canopy covering the planned gas pumps at Costco.
The pumps have already been approved.
The proposed lights would be LED lights, which are brighter and were intended to increase security at the pumps at night, according to Peter Danowski, the attorney for the applicant.
While that request didn't meet as much opposition as the request for the taller — thus brighter — light poles did, it still met with some opposition, and on Thursday, the ZBA unanimously voted it down.
Fred McLaughlin, the chairman of the ZBA, assured the large crowd of Foxwood and Millbrook residents who were in attendance Thursday that their concerns had been heard, and that issues that have been brought up, like dust from the construction site, were issues for other town agencies to take up.
As a result, no one other than the applicant spoke, and the ZBA went straight to the vote on the request.
Attorney Pete Danowski didn't ask for my help. We're not friends; we're not enemies. I write neither to criticize, nor to praise, his behavior.
Discussion of Danowski's role in Riverhead development is a huge distraction from the real problems. People often view him as the bad guy when things go wrong; I couldn't disagree more. To me, he's both predictable and irrelevant.
Every town has its Danowskis. If Pete left Riverhead tomorrow, others would rush to fill the void, cultivating relationships with people on planning and zoning boards and with staff in building and planning departments. (Yes, this makes for choppy ethical waters.)
Danowski's job is to advocate for his clients' interests, and he's clearly good at it. Sadly, Riverhead taxpayers lack advocates of their own. Developers have deep pockets for hired guns to get permits and variances; concerned citizens typically can't afford attorneys.
That would be OK if town staff and appointed board members were appropriately skeptical, recognizing that most things Danowski's clients want are inherently not in the town's best interest. But our representatives are far too deferential; they rarely mount a challenge.
At a recent ZBA hearing on Costco lighting, Danowski claimed fewer, taller poles would deliver improved aesthetics and fewer cars bumping into lights. The discussion was anecdotal and subjective, lacking any data on lighting performance. He didn't offer, and no ZBA member asked about, lumen output, footcandle distribution, cutoff angles, glare, color temperature or efficiency — all things you'd want to know to make an educated decision on a lighting code variance (or, if you live next door).
Why didn't these facts matter? Is anyone gullible enough to believe the developer's goal is improved aesthetics, or that light pole accidents are a real problem? And why did no one ask the obvious: How much money would the builder save by eliminating two-thirds of the poles?
Danowski said gas pump lights need to be brighter "for security;" ZBA members didn't ask how other stations manage with lights that comply with code and "dark skies" rules. He also said, "LED lights are brighter," which is simply false; LED fixtures can deliver any desired lighting level.
The same process played out with far greater consequences when Danowski argued that his client would be doing the town a favor by clearing the entire Costco site. No one objectively reviewed the pros and cons of this proposal or did any sort of cost-benefit analysis. The Planning Board was quick to accept the developer's assertions that less truck traffic during construction was worth losing 11 acres of forest, forever. Planning Board chairman Richard O'Dea apparently believed the developer's stated reason: "We don't want to disturb the neighbors twice." Really?
Separately, in addition to saving the developer millions, this decision cost the town $374,000 in fees on imported fill. Why is that OK? Why did Planning Board members and staff fail to mention it?
Still worse is the brazen way in which Town Board members are laying blame elsewhere. Sean Walter said: "I am very unhappy that these shopping centers clear-cut these sites, and I'm a little surprised that the Planning Board let them do it." That remark alone should cost him the election.
It's a "fail" on two levels. First, the Town Board handpicks Planning Board members; by their appointments, they bear major responsibility for clear-cutting. Further, as Walter once said: "In my world, we're the elected officials, but when we ask the Planning Board to do something, we sort of expect them to do it, because we're the ones people vote in."
There have been warnings about the dangers of packing boards with cronies who are unqualified and/or have political agendas. (See here and here.)
With the Costco actions and many more, we now reap what Town Board members have sown.
Second, no Town Board member has apologized for issuing a land clearing permit, without which the developer couldn't take the "wood" out of Foxwood. That vote was 4-0, and one council member was quite enthused: "We waited a long time and I vote yes."
That the permit was issued two weeks before the Planning Board "findings" vote makes it even more disturbing that Town Board members blame others for the excess clear-cutting.
Their recently proposed new tree-saving law is as ludicrous as it is transparent. In trying to divert attention from the Costco debacle they caused, Town Board members ignore the fact that zoning and planning boards could neuter any such law, one project at a time.
A hero in this mess deserves to be recognized. Planning Board member Joe Baier voted "no," and for the right reasons: He saw clear-cutting 11 acres with no plan to build anything as a raw deal. We desperately need more planning and zoning board members inclined to objective analysis and independent thought.
No incumbent Town Board member is likely to make such appointments. Voters should remember that these zoning and planning choices have a more profound impact on Riverhead's future than anything else our elected officials do. This November, the odds are high that any candidate not presently serving on the Town Board will improve it.
Larry Simms owns a home in South Jamesport, is a principal in a firm that licenses commercial flooring technology and is active in savemainroad.org, an advocacy group dedicated to preserving the character of the Main Road corridor and surrounding areas.
Representatives of a nonprofit organization planning to open a group home in Riverhead for victims of traumatic brain injuries appeared before the town Zoning Board of Appeals last week.
New Beginnings Community Center, which is raising money to renovate a vacant Sound Avenue house that had been donated to the nonprofit, needs an interpretation from the ZBA on whether the long-term care facility is a permitted use. The town code doesn't make any mention of such facilities.
ZBA members, rightfully, had some questions on the application, and are planning to undertake a fact-finding mission to learn more about the property, how it's been used in the past, and whether a secondary structure on the land is suitable as a residence for a "house mother." That person would live on-site and serve as backup to the trained aides who will be hired to care for medically dependent residents.
There is a true need for such a facility in town — and similar facilities across Long Island. One need look no further than the circumstances of Nancy Reyer of Riverhead and her son, Michael Hubbard, who suffered brain damage after a gel candle explosion in May 2011.
Since then, Michael, who needs constant care, has been living at Blythedale Children's Hospital upstate because there are no large facilities on Long Island for medically dependent children or young adults. All large assisted living facilities in our area are only for the elderly.
So nonprofit groups such as Angela's House — which runs three facilities for medically frail children in Suffolk — and New Beginnings of Medford have stepped in to fill the void. New Beginnings has already promised space for Michael, should the facility get up and running.
Riverhead ZBA attorney Scott DeSimone and ZBA members are not to be vilified for requesting more information and asking that the nonprofit representatives come back April 25. That's their responsibility.
But it's hard to imagine the board ever finding anything of substance to preclude New Beginnings from building its facility, so ZBA members should be cautioned against getting caught up in nit-picking and minutia, as government boards and attorneys are wont to do. As New Beginnings deals with the town and its local laws, fundraising efforts are underway to purchase pricey medical equipment and staff the facility, while also renovating the house. These efforts have already been slowed by Hurricane Sandy and subsequent winter storms. If potential donors come to believe the group might be having trouble with the town, and building plans stall, they might be reluctant to open their hearts and their wallets.
The ZBA and, moving forward, other town departments and officials should make it a priority to facilitate all dealings with New Beginnings — and get things moving. Every day accident victims like Michael Hubbard have to live away from loved ones is regrettable.

But the issue is how could you possibly get those game disc from, you only can't borrow almost every Playstation 3 games from the friend or waste your time and energy and money by travel downtown to rent it. Do you want to rent ten games on a monthly basis after it release? Of course not, the news is you are able to download any game you need and play in your console instantly.
What we is going to do next, you'll have to do each and every time you want to boot to Jailbroken mode. Don't worry though, it is rather easy. Go back on the root in the Jailbreak folder and go in the Decovery folder. (I recommend copying it to your hard drive to use later when/if you need to boot time for Jailbroken mode.) But your iPod back to DFU mode (The 15 second thing.) Launch Decovery.exe. It is going to do the rest in your case.
Awesome! You were lucky enough to nab an iPhone 4, but the fun is merely starting. Jailbreaking your iPhone will open up the whole world of possibilities for your iDevice and following are the best Jailbroken apps and tweaks for your iPhone 4.
If you succeed, a box will show up with further instructions. If you fail, it will jailbreak iphone say so - you will need to unplug the iPhone 3G, turn it on, turn it on, then turn it off and try again.
The iPhone 4 also has advanced multimedia capabilities. It has a built-in 5 megapixel camera with LED flash with 5x digital zoom. It boasts video and audio recording/playback. You can record and store videos in high definition (HD). The phone also offers two microphones that eliminate background noise when coming up with a call or recording sound.
The other problem that hails from this issue will be the term "Unlocking", which can be a totally different term and I won't address in this post. Just are aware that "Unlocking" means switching your iPhone's carriers. Which is somewhat more illegal than jailbreaking.
If you aren't worried about your iPhone's warranty and possess successfully Jailbroken your iPhone, don't give up caution just yet. It's very important which you accept Jailbroken apps from credible/trusted sites only - there are lots of Jailbroken apps that can corrupt your iPhone's os. Also be sure to make sure the Jailbroken iPhone app you're installing on your own iPhone is compatible with all the version in the iPhone you're installing it on. The very last thing you desire is to end up with all the infamous "Sad iPhone" screen.
I should start using the jailbreak iphone 3gs disclaimer that jailbreaking just isn't sanctioned by Apple, so they do not approve. Things may go wrong within the jailbreaking process, so in the event you decide to go ahead with it, achieve this at your own risk. Jailbreaking your iPhone will void the warranty which suggests no support from Apple or AT&T. Of course, if your phone still works you should use iTunes to bring back it back to the factory defaults.

BI confirms Tuason,Plaza have left PH
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—If flight were an indication of guilt, several personalities linked to the P10-billion pork barrel scam might have given investigators strong cause to indict them.
Available information from the Bureau of Immigration (BI) indicated that two more linked to the illegal use of the lawmakers' Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF), also known as pork barrel, have quietly slipped out of the country.
BI records showed that Ruby Chan Tuason left the country on Aug. 26 via Cathay Pacific Airways flight CX906. Her flight coincided with the Million People March that netizens organized at Rizal Park in Manila to call for the complete abolition of the pork barrel.
While there was no mention of Tuason's destination, a check on flightstats.com showed that the particular flight regularly departs for Hong Kong.
Data also showed that Rodolfo Galido Plaza left the country on Sept. 11 via Cebu Pacific 5J108. The aircraft also flies the Manila-Hong Kong route.
Tuason, the former social secretary of former President and now Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada, was among those named by whistle-blowers as involved in the pork barrel scam allegedly masterminded by businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles.
Plaza, Agusan del Sur representative from 2001 to 2010, was tagged as one of the 28 lawmakers who allowed his pork barrel to be used for ghost projects initiated by Napoles' fake nongovernment organizations.
A certain Richard Cambe was also found to have left the country, but a source from the immigration bureau told reporters that he might just be the namesake of Sen. Ramon Revilla Jr.'s chief political adviser. Records showed that the passenger, who was born on Dec. 17, 1983, left on May 17 last year on Cathay Pacific flight CX918.
On Thursday, acting Immigration Commissioner Siegfred Mison confirmed that Jessica Lucilla "Gigi" Reyes, former chief of staff of Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile, left the country for Macau on Aug. 31 and "has not returned."

The 13-year-old controversy over installation of the statue of TDP founder president N.T. Rama Rao in Parliament House has developed fresh strains at the goal post with the TDP nursing a grouse that it did not receive invitations from the Lok Sabha Speaker's office for the unveiling ceremony on May 7.
The TDP Parliamentary Party led by Nama Nageswara Rao will lodge a formal complaint with Speaker Meira Kumar on Monday morning.
TDP Rajya Sabha member Sujana Chowdary told The Hindu that the invitations were neither received from the Speaker nor Union Minister and NTR's daughter, D. Purandeswari, who sponsored the bronze statue which is 9 feet 3 inches tall and weighs 900 kg. He also questioned the locus standi of Ms. Purandeswari to send the invitations, but nonetheless, they too were not received.
The statue which was sculpted by an NTR admirer Devu Shankar at Vemuru village in Guntur district over the last six months was a bone of contention over donation between Ms. Purandeswari and her husband D. Venkateswara Rao, in the Congress and the TDP ever since it was approved by a Parliamentary committee on statues and portraits headed by the then Speaker G.M.C. Balayogi in 2000. Finally, Congress had its way and left the sponsorship to Ms. Purandeswari.
TDP president N. Chandrababu Naidu who inherited the legacy of the party in 2000 and Ms. Purandeswari locked horns staking claim for donation of funds but the matter was unresolved by the House panel all these years though the issue came up at almost every meeting.
Former Speaker Somnath Chatterjee sent two reminders to Mr. Naidu's successor Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy but he did not respond. Then, Ms. Purandeswari stepped up her efforts triggering a war of letters between her and Mr. Naidu and her brother, film star Balakrishna. The unveiling of the statue with the familiar sight of NTR raising his left hand in the waiting area six near Rajya Sabha gate of Parliament would be attended by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, Leader of Opposition and leaders of national parties. Devu Shankar's statues of Acharya N.G. Ranga and Tanguturi Prakasam Pantulu have already been installed in Parliament House.

One evening, four music enthusiasts bonded over a cup of coffee and shared their love for music. With one mutual question in all of their minds, gave birth to the band, which they later named 'A Mutual Question'. Sheetal Soni meets the all-boys band, to know how they strike a balance between music and hectic jobs...
Karan Kumar along with his childhood friend, Siddharth Chopra, brother Aviraj Kumar and another friend, Proteesh Ravi launched their first album 'Eyes Everywhere' that got their band the right push it needed to create its identity.
Striking a balance:
Even after working eight hours a day, Karan never lets it eat into his music-time. "Being a software engineer, I may be making a lot of money. But I make sure that I indulge into my passion for some time everyday," Karan said. "Fortunately, our workplaces are quite flexible and, so that makes easy for us to do what we want to do other than work," added Aviraj, who is also a full-time senior media planner. Both believe that if there is pure love for a talent then nothing should stop
one from flaunting it.
Music to calm your senses:
"Our music is not rock-n-roll, it's what you can just relax and enjoy. We don't have any dedicated singer because our genre is instrumental", says Siddharth. "Our talent is different. It is meant for calming down people like me, who have stressful jobs and lives," added Karan.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Villa Cordevigo
Loc. Cordevigo, Verona, Veneto, Italy
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Half an hour's drive up the road from Verona is Villa Cordevigo, a classic Venetian country estate in the hills above Lake Garda. Right from the entrance it's clear what you're in for. After driving through the countryside, you make your way toward the villa by way of a long gravel road lined with ancient cypress trees, until the trees part to reveal the traditional stucco facade of the 18th-century building. In short, it's that combination of pastoral tranquility and old-world sophistication that Italy does so well — and all the better that it's on a vineyard estate in the Veneto, where the crowds are a bit thinner than in some of Italy's other idyllic corners.
Though the hotel has recently been refurbished, the lost-in-time effect is never spoiled. Guest rooms are fitted with the usual conveniences, including sharp screens, AC and a wi-fi signal, but you'll much sooner notice the period furnishings, exposed wood-beam ceilings and heavy, flowing drapes over the windows. That is, the level of comfort is contemporary, right down to the fine bathrobes and Bulgari toiletries, but the visual style is traditional — and perfectly in keeping with the setting.
Beyond the guest rooms, there's quite a lot to explore. The well-kept Italianate gardens are a good place to start, and just beyond are two hundred and fifty private acres of vineyards and parkland, with quiet paths for hiking and biking. (For leisurely rides, the hotel has old-fashioned cruiser bikes complete with well-worn Brooks saddles.) And out past the property is some awfully inviting countryside, full of vineyards and castles and ancient Romanesque churches, to say nothing of the natural beauty of Lake Garda itself.
Where things do get a bit more contemporary is at the villa's restaurant. The cuisine walks that line of being rooted in tradition without quite seeming old-fashioned, while the room itself is immaculately white, if still recognizably part of an 18th-century villa. Throw in a quiet, relaxing spa and a sunny little pool ringed with loungers and parasols, and it's the whole Venetian villa-hotel package.

What I liked:
Incredibly peaceful and elegant. The staff are helpful and very nice, particularly at the front desk and the bar. The garden is a wonderful place to relax and read. Though there were other guests at the hotel, I often felt as though I had the whole place to myself, particularly the garden and terrace. This could be the season, but I felt it both visits...mid September and mid October.
What the hotel could do better:
Nothing, had a wonderful stay!

Latest The Bell Curve Stories
New research suggests that a high childhood IQ may be linked to subsequent illegal drug use.
Stanford University researchers have used an imaging technique to show that brain activation patterns in children with poor reading skills and a low IQ are similar to those in poor readers with average IQs.
According to new research, intelligence tests are as much a measure of motivation as they are of mental ability.
Low IQ scores in early adulthood are associated with an increased risk of attempted suicide in men, according to new research funded by the Wellcome Trust.
Higher IQ is linked to more calculated risk taking and wiser economic choices, University of Minnesota researchers said. The study, to be published online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, found those with better cognitive skills, in particular higher IQ, were more willing to take calculated risks, to save their money and to make more consistent choices.

Australian manufacturer Seabird Aviation is targeting the aerial mapping market for the latest version of its SB7L-360 Seeker-2 surveillance aircraft.
The fixed-wing, two-seater Seeker, which is powered by a Lycoming 0-360 engine, features a helicopter-style cockpit, has a 880km (475nm) range and can fly at low altitude and slow speed.
The aircraft's slow speed, docile handling, long endurance and vibration-free characteristics make it ideal for aerial mapping operations, law enforcement patrols, roads and infrastructure surveys, the Hervey Bay, Queensland-based manufacturer believes.
The operating costs of the Seeker-2 also means it is far better suited than an expensive helicopter platform, the manufacturer adds.
The company's latest project will see airborne laser terrain mapping equipment integrated into the Seeker. "The current aircraft configuration allows us to integrate up to 120kg of payload. The platform is able to supply up to 2.5kW of electrical power. Typical corridor mapping flights would be conducted at 65kt airspeed, allowing us endurance in excess of 6h," says Peter Adams, Seabird managing director.
The move is in response to numerous requests for information for aerial mapping from potential customers in Australasia, says the company. It follows development of a fire-spotting version and the recent completion of the first aircraft fitted with the Cineflex high-definition camera system. Seekers are in operation in Australia, Azerbaijan, Iraq, Jordan, South Africa, Tanzania and the USA.

While many in the area celebrated the arrival of presidential candidate John McCain, Madison Elementary students celebrated our veterans and the sacrifices they've made.
To commemorate those who were lost, those who served, and those serving, the school walked in a Silent Parade to Veteran's Memorial Park.
Bundled up in coats, hats and scarves, every student in the building bounded out the door and walked silently down the sidewalks.
Once the reached the park, teachers handed out small American flags the students waved in the afternoon breeze.
"We've been doing this for a long time," music teacher and parade organizer Glenda Lindquist said. "The first time we did it, it made such an impression on the children."
When the students arrived at the park, armed forces recruiters were waiting for them, waving and saluting as the students circled the monument.
"The armed forces recruiters came down just for us," Lindquist said. "The students recognized most of the monuments we looked at today because we've been talking about them for the past few weeks. We watched a Power Point that had pictures of each bench, marker and monument up close, so they're familiar. The park is so close ... The children pass it all the time on their bikes, on foot. It's important for them to know what's in it."
The students sang a few songs, waving their flags above their heads all the while.
Norah Dearing was in the park when the students walked through, so she stopped to watch the procession.
"The students were so well behaved and so quiet," she said. "When they sang, I got goosebumps. It's great to see children out supporting our troops."
On the way back to the school, students were still waving their flags, walking hand in hand, silently.
"You were all very well behaved on our walk," Interim principal Ron Maschari told the students. "You all did very well in representing Madison School."

We'll have the lobster, hold the larvicide
Altosid, a pesticide used to control mosquito populations, may be killing off lobster larvae.
Mon, Jul 20, 2009 at 04:21 PM
The warming temperatures can only mean one thing—summer is officially on its way (or, you know, the devastating effects of climate change are kicking in). And there's nothing we love more than the season's finest, freshest seafood — namely, succulent lobster and mouthwatering crab cakes. We can almost smell the drawn butter now…
But today's papers bring troubling news of these tasty delights. Birth rates for Rhode Island's lobsters are lower than usual, and many fishermen believe the culprit is a chemical being intentionally put in the state's storm drains. Altosid, a pesticide used to control mosquito populations, may also be killing off lobster larvae.
From an article in The Jamestown Press:
Altosid is made of methoprene, a larvicide, that when applied, reduces the number of adult mosquitoes and thus reduces human risk from mosquito borne diseases such as EEE and West Nile virus. Rhode Island lobstermen and many environmentalists oppose the use of methoprene because the chemical also kills loster larvae.
The lobstermen argue that Maine is the only East Coast fishery where the lobster population is at acceptable, sustainable levels because, unlike other East Coast fisheries, Maine bans the use of methoprene and larvicides in its waters. Maine is also the only fishery where the lobster population does not suffer from shell disease. In all the other fisheries, Rhode Island included, lobster birth rates are noticeably below normal.
So much for our dreams of baked stuffed lobster and lobster bisque. Crab dishes may also be limited this season: Maryland recently joined Virginia in proposing a decrease in the number of blue crabs allowed to be caught in Chesapeake Bay. The proposals hope to bolster suffering crab populations in the bay, but may leave some diners feeling awfully crabby about the lack of succulent, local seafood.
From an article in today's Washington Post:
These actions follow months of warning from scientists, who said the population of crabs — thought of as the bay's best survivors because they had thrived while oysters and rockfish died off — has now fallen near an all-time low. They bay-wide population is estimated to be about one-third what it was in 1993. In Maryland, last year's crab harvest of about 21.8 million pounds was the second-lowest on record.
The reasons for this collapse include a constellation of the Chesapeake's trouble. Algae blooms, feeding on pollution from farms and cities, rob the water of oxygen. A warmer climate threatens the grasses that shelter baby crabs. And for years watermen have been catching an unhealthy amount of the crab stock.
OK, so maybe the summer may not be brimming with lobster rolls and crab salads. But there are plenty of other things to enjoy — the beach, barbeques, scantily clad gals in bikinis. And if you really need your seafood fix, check out Environmental Defense's list of sustainable options.

Author has written 1 story for Naruto.
Gender: Female
Nationality: Rather obvious by the flag above, but never harms to say that I'm a proud Norwegian.
Age: A girl never tells how old she is.
Birthdate: March 26
For those who care to know more:
I'm a girl who loves writing.
I live and breathe for writing stories, whether fanfiction or original works, because it is a way to express feelings and frustrations (and in truth often is my source of therapy). I love writing Naruto because there is such a wide range of characters you can explore, and many have not been explored in the manga or the anime, leaving you with a little lee-way to insert some of your own impressions and ideas. Of course it is harder to portray the main characters, such as Naruto and Sasuke and Sakura, but it never harms to have a fresh perspective (not that I'm particularly fresh with any of them).
For those who have read my stories they have probably noticed that I always have OCs in them. Partly because I love inserting new characters to beat some sense into the original ones, and partly because despite the range of characters in the Naruto universe, sometimes its necessary to fill the empty spots. And on that note I want to make a point that these OCs are strictly mine unless someone requests to use them (though I haven't deluded myself into thinking that someone has done that, but better be safe than sorry in a time of copyright infrigment).
Anyway, underneath are links to blogs I find particularly inspiring, and links to some of the outfits the characters wear in the story Autumn's Breath, just in case they are difficult to envision when you read.
Great blogs for inspiration:
http://www.parispatisseries.com/2011/10/24/the-best-pastries-in-paris-top-38-patisseries/ - Blog about pastries and where to get them in Paris
http://citified.blogspot.com/ - a really beautifully written blog about travels, fashion, food, drink and all manners of glamorous things
http://madameguillotine.org.uk/ - an interesting blog by author Melanie Clegg, where she talks about her books, and also a wide range of other subjects, such as books she's read and historical persons (particularly famous women such as Marie Antoinette, Wallis Simpson and the Romanovs).

That's just sad. You should at least look at it as another human being able to log into the game. Man I'm not even going to try and explain why something that is designed to do single vs something designed to be done by many as the basics for a quest system is better in an MMO.

If you play by yourself you go blind, if you do it with a friend or two you have smoke after.
If you choose to not socialize and only do stuff by yourself of course it will feel like its single player.
Being in a group is more about socializing with the people you are grouped with. If you never say anythng to anyone they all may as well be NPCs.

GW2 doesn't, by and large, have real questing.
Quests are:
1) Initiated by the player and start when the player decides they start.
2) are individual to that player.
GW2 events are almost never started by the player and are always shared. Even the small amount of player initiated escort quests are shared.
You can say blah blah its all the same under the hood anyway. But timing is everything and the way events works completely changes the timing and takes certain type of control out of the player's hands. Calling them the same is just being obtuse really.
ARguing the merits of having things initiated by the player under a constrainted system like TSW is fine. Saying they are essentially the same it not. Becuase that is very far off the mark. Simply by changing timing and control of these things you have RADICALLY changed player behavior and psychology even if the under lying task was exactly the same.

What? I don't play like that. What i'm trying to say is that, solo quest or group zerg event is the same in the "mmo" part. Players just exist there, they don't care, know or even wnat to know each other. Sure, the group event may have them work towards teh same goal, but in the end, if others where npc's, the end result would be the same.
That's what i mean, in both situations, the players are just like AI, souless. When players acknoledge each other, friendships and communities are built. Did that happen much with Rift, or in GW2 BWE? Nope, just people wo "where there". Compare that to a player driven objective event type..... thing. Alot different from a zerg.

Also you vastly underestimate non-verbal communication and socialization which is easily more powerful than actually talking. People's actions matter. They matter to other people. People's action with other people turn into interactions. There is then a feedback process that happens in this cycle.
That is a huge thing whether you realize it or not.

The investigation missions are fun. They can be difficult, but just barely. All you really have to do is type a string of the quest text into the ingame browser and follow the trail. If your an idiot...yes there is a lot of thinking involved. If you have an ounce of intelligence they wont take you more then 5-10 minutes to figure out.
Questing doesn't belong in MMO's for leveling. It rips people away fromt he world there playing in. Stil waiting for some innovation in this area of the MMO genre. Perhaps GW2, I havn't played it yet. But I doubt it will be that revolutionary.
As for the best "questing system" I give it to FFXI hands down. They were well placed, didnt have "!" over there heads or any other indicator a quest was to be done. And if your into invetigation missions from TSW and think there hard...yea no. Some of FFXI's quests were extremely hard to figure out. They demanded a vast knowledge of the game.
They were put in for the correct reasons, to advance your character in a multitude of ways. Story, Reputation, Rank etc. Not go get 5 rats and i'll give you 20 gold and 5k EXP.
The leveling in FFXI was a total grind, but you asked for best "Questing System" implememation not leveling.
"In the immediate future, we have this one, and then we've got another one that is actually going to be – so we're going to have, what we want to do, is in January, what we're targeting to do, this may or may not happen, so you can't hold me to it. But what we're targeting to do, is have a fun anniversary to the Ilum shenanigans that happened. An alien race might invade, and they might crash into Ilum and there might be some new activities that happen on the planet." ~Gabe Amatangelo

It's all about how the game is set up. If it's set up around player cooperation, like GW2, you will see complete strangers go out of their way to assist you, very often at the risk of dying themselves. I've had a guy try for about 5 minutes to rez my character in GW2, I died to close to a group of mobs and he kept getting attacked when he would attempt to revive me. He eventually died but he spent a good amount of time trying to revive me and we didn't even know each other.
Then you have games that require minimal player cooperation and are essentially solo games with a bit of forced grouping, like TSW. Where people stand and watch you get obliterated by mobs, instead of helping. I had it happen numerous times. People would just stand there waiting for my character to die instead of helping out.
Having played both games extensively, I can tell you that I am done with the anti-social "MMOs." The way these games are made now is a completely contradiction of the term and while GW2 is far from a perfect game, it is the only MMO released in the last 5+ years that actually is a real multiplayer game.

I really have been treating it as an RPG with co-op elements, and I dont feel i've missed out on anything. I chat with my cabal, while i enjoy the story, but I'm thinking if it stays P2P i'll just renew my sub for a month (maybe 2) every 6 months, enjoy the built up new storyline, enjoy the raid or two that came out, then repeat. I just dont feel a desire to level another character when mine can do basically everything I want to :P

Also, GW2 is a real multyplayer? Yeah, Rift's community is awesome because of those Rift event huh? I mean, people are defenatly doing them to help out and be nice to each other. it's not like anyone just does them to get their reward.
And GW2 is the same. Players do events to be friendly and socialize alot. In the BWE, people where talking to each other after events all the time. Nobody was running only with RL friends and shunning strangers. Nobody actually refused to chat and talk. It's a reall social mmo with people who truly, deeply care about community and helping out strangers and players.
Did i also say this was sarcasm?
Hearthless, GW2 is not an anit-social mmo? No MMORPG is like that. All of them have players grouping and chatting and etc, just like TSW. However, i didn't see anything in GW2 that was more multyplayer than TSW beyind inclosed small groups of players who knew each other in the open world. So, how is it different again?

I like both but can't honestly put up any strong counter argument to say GW2 is just setup much better to encourage working with others.

No not really. Like i said, there's always players who are a-holes, some nice, etc. The masses isolate themselves into rl groups and guilds and avoid communication with others, unfortunatly. If open world events changed that, like i said, Rift would be paradise. Also WAR.
When you have dev created objectives, players naturally focus on the end and reward more than the action itself.
For example. An event destroyes a village and it tells you to collect certain supllies to rebuild it, right? What si everybody focused on? That bar over their heads, the end of the event, reaching the linear goal.
Now imagine a player created village is destroyed. There's no event of course. So, players who help out are doig so out of kindness to the players who got it recked. There's no reward or "final goal" to reach. Only an opne ended group experience.
GW2's events make grouping easier and i love that. It's also better in that way than TSW, which i also agree. But, the community isn't much better or more social and friendly than what we have now. It's not bad ok? just not any more social than other mmos.
EDIT: Yes, the "you have no idea hwat you're talking about" thing. *rolls eyes*

In my opinion they are the best so far. It is the first time EVER where i am excited to see what other missions they put in through there mission packs.
If Rift, WoW, SWTOR, WAR, AoC etc etc put out mission packs i would be like "what is this shit??" i.e missions in all these game are terrible.
edit while GW2 looks awesome i cant believe someone said SWTOR has better quests HAHAHAHHAHAHAH o god thats funny.

Secret World may or may not be the best questing MMO to date.
I will say questing in The Secret World stands on its own. It is and is not like other MMO titles.
Many of the quests are well thought, have depth, interest, and feel compelling. The NPC's have character to them. Consider Andy, John Wolf, Sheriff Bannerman or the Black House.
What happens if you go out on a date and you start secretly comparing this date to your ex? First, I believe you will sabotage your experience and the outcome for better or worse. Let alone if they discover you are doing it.
Second, you won't really give this date an even chance (unless of course they are some closet psycho going on about loving to eat peanut butter with chicken liver.) Third, I… I don't really know where the chicken liver thing came from but, digressing.
I know it is easy to do, but does everything have to be compared to everything else for you to simply enjoy it? Like it or don't, why does it have to be better or worse?

My account has over 450 tweets but when I try to fetch it's rss feed it's only giving me latest 20feeds. Is there any way to fetch all of tweets together?
You can fetch up to 200 tweets on a single RSS feed.
200 is the API limit. But you can add a page number to get past 200:
which will display tweets 201 to 401. Also, the Twitter profile should not be private. Check the documentation at: http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/statuses/user_timeline
I believe by default Twitter returns top 20 records.
What are you trying to do? If you are trying some library to query RSS feed, then I am sure that library will have option to specify that you wish to retrieve more than 20 records.
A twitter's user RSS feed is limited to the last 20 tweets, as far as I know. I don't think there's any parameter you can pass to increase the count. If you want to fetch more tweets, you'd have to use the API rather than the RSS feed. Even that won't go back infinitely in history, though -- once you're over some set limit (though I can't remember what it is off-hand) there's no way of retrieving older tweets.

Christmas Farm Inn & Spa Hires Stan Shafer as Executive Chef of their Jackson, NH Restaurant
Jackson, New Hampshire, May 26, 2010 -- Michael Tolley, owner of the Christmas Farm Inn & Spa, announces the hiring of Stan Shafer as Executive Chef of the Christmas Farm Inn Restaurant. Mr. Shafer joins the Christmas Farm Inn team from his position as Executive Chef for the Eagle Mountain House in Jackson, NH where he spent eight years. "We believe Stan will be a great addition to our team," says Mr. Tolley. "He is a talented chef and his experience in the Mount Washington Valley makes him very familiar with the preferences of both our local and out of town guests."
Mr. Shafer is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America in 2001. Prior to his formal culinary training, he served in the Marine Corp and participated in Operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield. He then spent 6 years working in various resort restaurants including facilities in Breckenridge, CO, Montauk, NY and St. Croix. According to Mr. Shafer, "this apprentice period taught me the fundamentals of the restaurant business from the ground up and exposed me to many different styles and techniques and gave me a jump start into Culinary School."
When asked about his plans for the Jackson, New Hampshire restaurant at the Christmas Farm Inn, Mr. Shafer said, "I plan to produce menus with a mix of Olde New England favorites, Classic French and Italian Cuisine. We will also present an interesting assortment of specials which will feature a variety of ethnic cuisines including Asian dishes, which hold a fond place in my heart. We're designing our menu to appeal to local guests looking for a well prepared, affordable meal as well as guest staying at the Inn who want a special occasion dinner to highlight their trip to the Valley. Two personal specialties mentioned by Mr. Shafer that are sure to find their way to the menu include Pan Seared Haddock Basilico and Sirloin Steak Lyonnaise.
Mr. Shafer lives with his wife, Sara, and daughter, Caleen, in Redstone, New Hampshire. When he's not preparing meals at the restaurant, Stan and his family can be found spending time with their horses or renovating their old New England home.
The Jackson, NH restaurant at the Christmas Farm Inn and Spa will reopen for the season on May 28th and begin dinner service at 5:30, Tuesday through Sunday evenings. It can accommodate up to 46 guests in the casual setting of the main dining room.

I should say, the best theme in the last three years which fulfills my requirements. I have just two questions before buying it.
1. Why does it come without a search bar in the header. It appears to be a big drawback. 2. While creating a new post/page, can I have tabs and FAQ in the same page where you have images?
Kindly answer.
Hey and thanks for kind words at first
1. We don`t have this feature in header because there is not space for search bar and also nobody never asked about it. But of course after purchase we can tell you how to put this search bar in header but at first you need to send us screenshot of demo with your modifications so we can be sure how you want to put this search bar and instead of which header element.
2. Tabs and FAQ are diffrent page builder items and you can use them both in any place which allow to use page builder. For pages it is possible of course.
Hope all will be clear
Thanks for your interest!
Thanks for the kind response. Your replies are almost clear to me. Kindly tell me:
1. I would like to remove the "Find us On" element and replace it with Search. If possible, I need both on the top.
2. I am at present on Opencart with more than 200 of my pages/posts topping Google search. When I move to Wordpress, will I lose the search ranks on Google?
3. Will you do the Wordpress installation for me? Should I pay, what do you charge?
4. last question and that is about integrating a page element with tab and FAQ on the same page. is it possible to have all these three elements on one page?
Thank you.
1. Yes, it is possible. After purchase we can tell you how to do it.
2. OpenCart is totally different system than wordpress so you will lose everything as we know.
3. If you got hosting purchased, then we can install it for you and configure whole theme to look just like on our demo. This cost $30-$50 and depends what hosting you got and what should be done.
4. FAQ and accordion yes but what is 3rd element? We are not sure what you mean.
Thanks, I got it all. I will buy this theme in a week's time. If you want a mighty educational theme layout, I can give you for free on a condition that i get that theme for free once it is approved and launched. A little weird deal but I have that layout ready.
You're welcome!
Can you just explain what you would like to learn us? What layout are you talking about because we don`t get it
I will send a demo, static. Pls give me some time.
Sorry for asking so many questions. Hope these questions will help other readers here. My new question is:
1. Can I have, in a page/post, some text, an accordion, a FAQ, a TAB and a SLIDER? I mean, all in the same page?
2. On a slider, can I add a targetable link/button?
3. Can I remove the FIND US ON div and place SEARCH in its place?
1. You can get them on pages but not on posts.
2. Yes, you can do it. We got Revolution Slider included for this theme.
3. Yes, it is possible.
It will be great advantage if you can re code it in such a way that the admin can add to a POST the following items.
1. A slider. 2. Accordions
At present what is the status? Can an accordion be added to the POST?
Sorry but at this moment we don`t have any plans to make those things and it is not possible at this moment. Sorry!
Kindly tell me, i need a wordpress installation and the theme installation. How much do you charge? How much time does it take?
Please send us this question via contact form on our profile's page http://themeforest.net/user/muffingroup in right bottom corner.
I have resent the question. Kindly reply. My website is down and I want to get it restored with wordpress.
We already sent you message on mail so please check your mailbox. If you got more questions, then please write only on pm and do not reply here.
Thanks for understanding!
Hello Team,
Does your Theme support WooCommerce, like do we need to edit the stylesheet or any pages to get that working perfectly or would it be just fine by using the woocommerce plugin as it is!
Regards, Ranvir
Hi please can you help me urgently? when viewing the site on a mobile the background image that we have used seems to cover the content, is there a way of having the background image not fix itself to the width of a mobile ie stay in position with the content being in the middle even if the sides of the background cant be seen. The website is http://indoorhighwireadventure.com/ many thanks, chris
thank you for your quick support! i have replied
my site : allpc24.de
I have two problems the first one is the navigation bar how can i fix ? the secound one is the slider i have tried to install it but it doesnt works
thanks for help greetings from germany
what is wrong with your main navigation? Because as we see all works fine and we don`t see any problems.
But all info about importing slider into demo you can find on http://forum.muffingroup.com/nollie/discussion/8/how-to-import-slider-into-nollie (but instead of old .txt file must be uploaded slider1.zip file as this is the new way of importing slides).
Hope this will help you a lot
HI, we have a problem. The main menu don't show in 3 columns like the demo. Show all the options in vertical! Please help!
Sorry, I fix it! Thanks!
Probably you didn`t choose any menu in Appearance > Menus section and that was your problem We're glad you solved it out!
Exactly! But now, we don't know how to disable bread crumbs just for the home page. How to disable? Thanks!
Hi again,
How to disable the breadcrumbs only for the homepage?
My problem with this is paresse on your forum,http://forum.muffingroup.com/nollie/discussion/comment/793#Comment_793 but I can not see the answers because your site does not allow registration, and takes much of an error at the end:
Bonk Something funky happened. Please bear with us while we iron out the kinks.
yes, we know about this problem and this happened yesterday because envato API was broken. That`s why it wasn`t possible to register on forum but today all is back and you can register without any problems. This problem was described on TF forum http://themeforest.net/forums/thread/whats-wrong-with-envato-api/133707
For future, if you will get similar situation, you can send us private message and we can create account manually.
Thanks for understanding!
Hello Friend, how do to use the Shortcode [contact_form] Wiget the footer?
unfortunately we don`t have "contact form" item as text shortcode. This item exist only as Muffin Builder item. If you want to get text shortcode that can be used in footer as widget, then probably you need to install plugin like Contact Form 7 for that and then you will be able to use text shortcodes for contact forms.
Thanks for understanding!
Will this theme work with the latest form of Buddypress for wordpress? I am loving the theme so much but I cant find anything about it supporting or not supporting buddypress wordpress plugin latest version.
unfortunately we have no idea if this will work with buddypress because we have never tested it.
Thanks for your interest in Nollie anyway!
Oh, I will assume not then many others that arnt listed compatible need much changes, I am still going to consider buying this soon but perhaps if you check one day can you still let me know I will be able to buy this within the month I assume.
Ok. But at this moment we don`t have any plans to test any additional plugins with this theme. Thanks!
Hi guys, I cannot access your support forum. iT's telling me my license key is invalid.
How can I make the navigation be 4 items down instead of just 3?
Many Thanks
you are not able to register on forum because you have used purchase code with empty spaces or you tried to use different username than you got on Themeforest. As we wrote on support forum, username always must be the same as on Themeforest and purchase code shouldn`t contain empty spaces.
But if this won't help, then please send us private request about that via contact form which is in right bottom corner on http://themeforest.net/user/muffingroup and we`ll create this account for you.
However to change depth for menu, please go to functions/theme-menu.php file, find lines which looks like below:
'depth' => 3,
and replace value 3 with 4.
Thanks for choosing Nollie!
did you read what has been described under this field? Probably you don`t so please take a look on first picture once again.
Thanks for understanding!
Hi there,
I have an older version of your theme with considerable changes, the theme works fine but I am concerned with the plugin 'revolution Slider' vulnerability. I have purchase the plugin and have updated nearly all my themes by just overwriting the plugin file with the new ones.
I did this with your them and the slider ceased to work.
Can you please advise ?
as you can read at http://themeforest.net/item/nollie-premium-wordpress-theme/3782741 in "Updates & Changelog" section, for theme we included latest 4.6 version which is safe. If you are not sure what version you use, then please go to Slider Revolution section and check in right bottom corner what version you use. If you use older than 4.2 version, then you must update it because this issue was fixed with version 4.2
P.S. We have checked our theme with latest 4.6 version and all works fine. But if something is not working then we recommend to overwrite your current slider files with this one from package as we tested it.
Thanks for understanding!
Why do the page titles on page use the HTML page TITLE? So strange… How do i fix this?
I have YOAST seo plugin. Normally the page title is the actual page name. This theme takes the SEO title from page.
please send us access to FTP and wp dashboard on pm with explanation and we`ll have a look on it.
Thanks for choosing Be!

Hi just trying to import the demo content, but am getting an error for the instruction video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fTHYWEGhAc&hd=1
Can you help please?
thanks Mark
Hi Mark,
what error you exactly get? Please explain what you mean and we'll try to help.
Thanks for choosing Nollie
Hi, thanks. Yes, firstly I'm trying to import the demo content by using the wordpress import plugin, but getting error 500. I realise it may be my server, but I have a max upload of 32MB which I thought would be okay? And secondly, when I try to click the youtube video, it is saying that there is a problem with the video. Is the video link okay at your end?
THanks, Mark
Error 500 means that this is Internal Server Error and in this case you must contact with hosting administrator because this problem is not related with theme at all. But if you mean the video which is on http://forum.muffingroup.com/nollie/discussion/4/how-to-get-and-import-xml-file-with-demo-content then we already checked it and of course works fine
I Have an a Edge Animation animated-badges and i want to put on center

Thanks !
and i Also Installed The Theme and Uploded .XML File But Site Theme Not Installed Correctly : – http://www.fivestardesigners.in/
WP-ADMIN UserName : – FSD Passoword :- admin
as we see, XML file has been imported properly but you imported it twice and that's why menu items are duplicated. In this case, in Menus section you must sort all menu items. Also you should sort widgets in right columns. More info about that you can read on http://forum.muffingroup.com/nollie/discussion/29/first-steps-after-install-xml-upload
Thanks for choosing Nollie
i want to show Content builder section on post.
with this theme this is unfortunately not possible.
Thanks for understanding and choosing Be!
Hi Muffingroup,
For some reason our website has become extremely slow… all issues point toward the nollie theme… I've updated the theme and tried the newest version. Turned off all plugins, updated wordpress to the lastest version and checked with our webhosting company… Everything points toward the stype.php file… but even after updating to the lastest version the issue is still there. Could you give us a hand? The site is: kentechbv.nl (we've checked with: http://tools.pingdom.com)
Kind regards,
style.php is one of the most important files because without dynamic styles you won't be able to make all those changes in muffin options panel. Of course this solution is slower then static css but there is nothing what we can do for you in this case.
Thanks for choosing Nollie!
Hello, Any idea why the site became so slow all of the sudden though? The past year the homepage loaded in less then 2.5 / 3 seconds. Now it takes 10 seconds on average. Which is 88% slower then all other websites…
So this problem must be related with something on your side only because if you will check our demo http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/dw6wOx/http://themes.muffingroup.com/nollie it takes 849 milliseconds. The problem could be related with your plugins, solutions, images or hosting and unfortunately in this case we are not able to help.
Thanks for understanding!
Hi, how do update Rev Slider? It doesn't appear in my plugin list, where is it? Other sites of mine have been hacked through old versions of Rev Slider and also now I can't update slides for some reason. I need to update this quickly. Thanks.
please take a look at other support forum where we explained how to update revolution slider.
Thanks for choosing Nollie!
