England have progressed to the Super Eights stage of the ICC World Twenty20 after their sudden-death Group D showdown with Ireland was abandoned due to rain.
For the second time in as many nights, rain was the real winner in a match left fascinatingly poised after England had been restricted to just 120-8.
In pursuit, Ireland were well set on 14-1 after 3.3 overs, but, with the match nine deliveries shy of being classed 'complete', the heavens opened to end proceedings.
England now qualify to the next phase alongside West Indies by virtue of having a better net run-rate than their Irish counterparts, who were heavily beaten in their tournament opener against the host nation.
The outcome was harsh on Ireland who bowled and fielded exceptionally to reduce England to their second lowest ever Twenty20 total.
Wily medium-pace bowler Trent Johnston (1-14) set the tone with a superb opening spell on a pitch that strongly favoured the slower bowlers.
Michael Lumb and Craig Kieswetter found runs hard to come by in the opening exchanges, and both departed inside the six-over powerplay period.
Lumb made 14 before he clipped Kevin O'Brien's first delivery straight to Boyd Rankin at short fine-leg.
And Kieswetter (13) joined him back to the pavilion eight balls later when setting off for a suicidal single, only to be sent back by Kevin Pietersen.
John Mooney's throw was perfectly over the top of the stumps and Niall O'Brien whipped off the bails with the England gloveman agonisingly short of his ground.
England found themselves in deeper trouble when veteran Johnston was rewarded for his accuracy with the wicket of captain Paul Collingwood for a three-ball duck.
After dropping Kieswetter at first slip earlier on, Andre Botha made no mistake this time as Collingwood trudged back in disbelief.
Pietersen scratched around for just nine, however his painful 18-ball stay was brought to an end in identical fashion to the previous night when he slammed a Kevin O'Brien long-hop down the throat of Mooney at deep midwicket.
Dublin-born Eoin Morgan and Luke Wright dug deep in the middle part of the innings to at least restore some respectability to an otherwise uninspiring England innings.
Wright clawed his way to 20 off 24 balls only to hole out to William Porterfield in the 17th over.
Morgan struck five of England's 10 boundaries but fell five runs short of his half-century when picking out Gary Wilson on the long-on boundary.
And only a scampered two from Graeme Swann off the final ball of the innings ensured Ireland would be chasing a total over a run-a-ball.
The men in green suffered an early blow to their chase when Paul Stirling pulled Ryan Sidebottom powerfully to the deep midwicket boundary, only to fall for a duck to an outstanding diving catch by Lumb.
Niall O'Brien, playing his 100th international for Ireland, then clubbed Sidebottom for back-to-back fours as Ireland pushed the accelerator beneath the gloomy skies.
However, the inevitable rain failed to relent for any substantial time, thus preventing Ireland a shot at the feasible target.

New Exhibition: Hatch Show Print - Nashville Calling
Thursday, 14th Nov 2013
London's CHELSEA Space Gallery has just opened a new exhibition dedicated to the American letterpress art of Hatch Show Print, based in Nashville, Tennessee. Established in 1879, well before TV advertising and the internet, Hatch Show Print used their bold letterpress designs to promote Country, Americana, Blues and Jazz musicians. Their bright and colourful artworks have featured the likes of Bessie Smith, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong and Hank Williams.
Though best known for their work with musicians, Hatch Show Print originally began by making posters for religious meetings, local businesses and political rallies. Nashville Calling features archive artefacts, photographs, film and many of the signature poster designs created by the company from the 1920s to the present day. The exhibition explores Hatch's unique history and positioning as an information network, universally respected art and design agency and cultural icon.
Nashville Calling will run until 14th December 2013, and will be accompanied by a series of talks, lectures and music events to celebrate Hatch Show Print and its history. As with each exhibition at the CHELSEA Space gallery, a new illustrated publication will accompany the show.

Pakistan International Airlines Corporation, more commonly known as Pakistan International Airlines or PIA (Urdu: پی آئی اے or پاکستان انٹرنیشنل ایرلاینز), is the flag carrier airline of Pakistan, based in Karachi. It is the 16th largest airline in Asia, operating scheduled services to 73 destinations throughout Asia, the Middle East, Europe and North America, as well as an extensive domestic network linking 24 destinations. Its main bases are Jinnah International Airport, Karachi, the Allama Iqbal International Airport, Lahore and the Benazir Bhutto International Airport, Islamabad/Rawalpindi. The airline also has secondary bases, including Peshawar International Airport, Faisalabad International Airport, Quetta International Airport and Multan International Airport, from which it connects the metropolitan cities with the main bases, the Middle East and the Far East. The airline is owned by the Government of Pakistan (87%) and other shareholders (13%). It currently employs 18,043 employees as of May 2008.
Pakistan International Airlines, or PIA for short, can trace its beginnings to the days when Pakistan still was not an independent state. In 1946 Muhammed Ali Jinnah realised the need for an airline network for the forming country and called upon the help of an experienced industrialist Mirza Ahmad Ispahani to develop a flag carrier for the nation. Meanwhile, an airline called Orient Airways, registered in Kolkata, was formed on October 23 1946. In February 1947, the airline brought three DC-3 airplanes from a company in Texas, and in May of that year the airline was granted a licence to fly. Services were started in June from Kolkata to Sittwe and Yangon. This was the first post-war airline flight by a South Asian registered airline company. Two months after this service began, Pakistan was formed. Orient Airways began relief flights to the new nation and, soon after, it moved its operations to Karachi, where it began flights to Dhaka on June 7, 1954. In addition, the first two domestic routes in Pakistan were established, from Karachi to Lahore to Peshawar, and from Karachi to Quetta to Lahore.
The Government of Pakistan, realizing the operation was failing economically, proposed that Orient Airways merge into a new national airline. On March 11 1955, Orient Airways merged with the government's proposed airline, becoming Pakistan International Airlines Corporation. During the same year the airline opened its first international service, from Karachi to London Heathrow Airport via Cairo International Airport and Leonardo da Vinci Airport in Fiumicino, Italy, using the Lockheed L-1049C Super Constellation. The DC-3s continued operating the domestic services in Pakistan. In May 1956, PIA ordered two Super Lockheed Constellations and five Vickers Viscount 815. In 1959, Malik Nur Khan was named Managing Director.
In March 1960, PIA became the first Asian airline to enter the jet age when Boeing 707 services were introduced. The aircraft were wet leased from Pan American and in 1961 services were begun to John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. In 1962, orders were placed for Boeing 720's, Fokker F27's and Sikorsky helicopters. One of PIA's own new Boeing 720s broke a world record that year, when it flew from London to Karachi non-stop in 6 hours, 43 minutes, and 55 seconds during its delivery flight from Seattle, piloted by PIA's ace Captain Abdullah Baig, whose record is unbroken to this day. During 1962, services to East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) were proving to be difficult, therefore PIA placed their Sikorsky S-61 helicopters on these routes until 1966 when conditions improved. In 1964 history was made again when PIA became the first airline from a non-communist country to fly to the People's Republic of China. As the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 broke out, PIA helped the Pakistani forces with logistics and transport. In 1966, the Viscounts were phased out, substituted by four Tridents. However, as growth surpassed the need for these aircraft, they were later sold to Civil Aviation Administration of China.
The 1970s saw the resumption of transatlantic flights and new destinations. It once again aided the Pakistan Army by transporting soldiers to East Pakistan in the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 and lost a couple of its aircraft to Indian Air Force fighters.. In 1972 it applied to operate to Libya and an agreement was signed with Yugoslav airline JAT. In 1973, McDonnell Douglas DC-10s arrived and were used by the airline before they were replaced by Boeing 747s. In 1974 air freight services started, as well as a cargo service to New York under the name, Pakistan International Cargo. In 1975, PIA introduced new uniforms for air hostesses. These uniforms were chosen through an open competition, and the winning entry was a design by Sir Hardy Ames who was a personal designer of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. In 1976, leased Boeing 747s came into service. In 1978, the airline bought their first Boeing 747 aircraft, which have since become a workhorse of the airline's fleet. Also in 1978 the airline provided help to Somali Airlines, Air Malta and Yemenia as well as it established a hotel management service in the United Arab Emirates. PIA also leased two of its own Boeing 720s to Air Malta during the 70s.
The 1980s began with the opening of a cargo centre in Karachi and the delivery of a new aircraft, Airbus A300B4-203. In 1981, a duty-free sales service was inaugurated. During 1982, the first C and D checks were carried out on the fleet in Karachi. In 1984, domestic night coach fare service was introduced to offer more economical prices for low-income passengers. In 1985 the PIA Planetarium tourist attraction was inaugurated in Karachi and later in Lahore. In the same year, five Boeing 737-300s joined the fleet making PIA the first Asian operator of such a type. Two former PIA Boeing 720Bs now form part of the Planetarium's exhibition at Karachi and Lahore. In late 1987 and early 1988, flights were introduced to Malé and to Toronto Pearson International Airport, respectively. In 1989, the first women pilots started their career on passenger airplanes.
During June 1991, PIA received the first of six Airbus A310-308 aircraft on from Airbus Industrie. In 1992, flights started to Tashkent and in 1993, to Zürich, Switzerland. In addition, PIA became a user of the Sabre, Galileo and Amadeus global distribution systems. During 1994, PIA added Jakarta, Fujairah, Baku and Al-Ain to its destinations. Air Safari flights were launched in the same year using Boeing 737-300 aircraft over the Karakoram Range mountains. In 1995, PIA received a Boeing 747 flight simulation system and a used Air France A300 aircraft was bought. In 1996 the airline leased Tupolev Tu-154 aircraft, and re-opened services to Beirut Rafik Hariri International Airport.
PIA only used the Tupolev Tu-154 for a very short time to deal with the additional demand during the summer of 1996. In 1999, PIA leased five Boeing 747-300 aircraft from Cathay Pacific to replace its aging Boeing 747-200 fleet. The aircraft wore a new livery with a handwork Pashmina tail on white body and large Pakistan titles on the front fuselage. The livery was applied to some of the fleet during the 90s but due to copyright problems the livery was dropped. The Boeing 747-300s remained in the new look but with a plain green tail with PIA titles. The other aircraft in the fleet were repainted in the 1990s livery.
In July 2002, PIA purchased six Boeing 747-300 aircraft from Cathay Pacific, five of which were already on lease with PIA. The sixth arrived shortly after and PIA operated the six aircraft mainly on its North American and European routes. In October 2002, after a period of ten years without any new order, the airline purchased eight Boeing 777 aircraft from The Boeing Company, including three 200 ER (Extended Range), two 200 LR (Longer Range) and three 300 ER versions. PIA was the launch customer that revived the Boeing 777-200LR project that, until then, only had three orders by EVA Air. The first two Boeing 777-200LR produced were test aircraft used by Boeing, before they were delivered to PIA. One of these Boeing 777-200LR was displayed at the Paris Airshow during 2005.
During 2004, PIA took delivery of its first Boeing 777 aircraft in Januar. On delivery of the first three Boeing 777s the airline introduced a new aircraft livery, which was later applied to the majority of the fleet. PIA also acquired six half life Airbus A310-300/ET from the Airbus management on a ten year lease agreement. On November 3, 2005 PIA signed an agreement with the aircraft manufacturer, ATR to purchase seven ATR42-500. The aircraft were purchased to replace the aging F-27 aircraft. The seven ATR aircraft were delivered between 2006 and 2007. On 6 December 2005, PIA leased an additional new Boeing 777 from the International Lease Finance Corporation (ILFC). The aircraft had the same specifications as the previous Boeing 777-200ER that PIA operated. The aircraft was delivered in January 2007 on ten year lease to the airline. On February 25, 2006 Boeing delivered its first B777-200LR Worldliner to PIA, where it flew from Everett to Islamabad via Manchester, England. PIA started nonstop flights from Toronto to Karachi, Islamabad and Lahore from March 3 2006 taking advantage of Boeing 777's long range capability. PIA planned non-stop flights to New York City and other US cities with sizable Pakistani population centres, but was not given permission due to security reasons. On May 31, 2006, PIA took delivery of its first ATR aircraft from Toulouse, France. On December 23, 2006, PIA took delivery of its first Boeing 777-300ER. After the arrival of a second ATR 42-500, PIA has ceased using military Lockheed C-130 Hercules for passenger services in the north of Pakistan. The military planes were being used after the Fokker F27 fleet was grounded due to a fatal crash in July 2006.
On March 5, 2007, the European Commission banned all but eight planes of PIA's 44-planes fleet flying to Europe citing safety concerns. PIA was blacklisted by 27 European Union states. The remaining eight, namely the fleet of 777s, has been exempted from the ban. PIA claims that this is discriminatory and the bans are not justifiable. On March 26, 2007, Tariq Saeed Kirmani resigned after severe pressure from higher authorities because of the EU ban. Zafar Khan was appointed as the new Chairman of Pakistan International Airlines. A team of European Union visited Karachi in July 2007, to check the condition of the planes and review the ban. On July 5, 2007, the EU lifted the restriction on 11 aircraft that PIA could fly into Europe, of which five were Boeing 747's and six Airbus A310s. . On November 29, 2007, The EU completely lifted the ban on PIA and stated they were happy with the conditions of the fleet..
On August 10, 2007, PIA signed an agreement with Aviation Lease and Finance Company (ALAFCO) to lease seven Airbus A320s to replace its Boeing 737-300 fleet. The deliveries are expected in 2009 and will be completed in the same year.. On March 19, 2008, PIA decided to retire its Boeing 747 fleet due to rising fuel costs and placed the aircraft on sale. . On May 7, 2008, Captain M. Aijaz Haroon was appointed the new Managing Director. On May 21, 2008 the airline decided to re-introduce the Boeing 747s. On July 2 2008, PIA commenced services to Leeds/Bradford Airport using the Airbus A310.

In December 2003 PIA introduced a new image that was applied to their first 777-200ER and on two leased A310-300s one of which was in service, due to negative feedback the design on the 777 and single A310 was modified before delivery to PIA with the tail being painted beige and a flowing Pakistan flag added to it, the PIA acronym was enlarged and moved onto the fuselage, the other A310 continued operating in the original version for a while before being repainted.
In early 2006 the airline decided to launch four new tail designs for its fleet. The tails represented the four provinces of Pakistan: Sindh, Punjab, Northwest Frontier Province and Balochistan.. The tails were to promote the different cultures of the four provinces of Pakistan by applying motifs to the tails and adding a city name to the rear of the fuselage corresponding to the province. A "Destination Pakistan 2007" logo was added below the cockpit of most aircraft. The "Frontier" tail represents the "Phulkari" (flowering) pattern that reflects a rich and colourful tradition of embroidery generally done on shawls, shirts and linen. The "Punjab" tail is loosely related to the exquisite tile decoration of the Wazir Khan Mosque in Lahore. The "Balochistan" tail is a striking and colourful reflection of robust creativity is seen in the kilims, carpets and rugs woven with wool, goat or camel hair and mixed yarn. The pattern is mostly bold geometric motifs in primary colours dominated by red. The "Sindh" tail was influenced from the Hala tile work with electric blue and white floral patterns.
It was only since 2003 that PIA decided to launch a full courier service and introduced "PIA Speedex". The service was started in the three metro cities: Karachi, Lahore, and Rawalpindi/Islamabad; expanding within a year to 12 cities. Today, the airline offers over 70 locations within Pakistan, with shipments collected and delivered from customers' homes. From 2004 to September 2007, PIA Cargo operated two Airbus A300 Freighter aircraft through MNG Airlines under wetlease/ACMI to Haan and Luton; initially these also operated to Amsterdam, Basel and Cologne.
PIA operates a two-month (pre- and post-) Hajj operation each year to and from Jeddah and sometimes Madinah in Saudi Arabia. PIA transports over 130,000 intending pilgrims each year from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, Quetta, Faisalabad, Multan, and Sukkur to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. In order to deal with the demand, the airline leases many different aircraft including Boeing 747-200s, Airbus A321s, Airbus A300B4s and Boeing 737-400s.
When the government changed after a military coup in 1999, the Boeing B737 was transferred to PIA permanently. The President and Prime Minister then resorted to using two of PIA's Airbus A310-300 for official visits, while rare trips were done on regular commercial flights of the airline. In February 2007 the government of Qatar gifted one of their VIP fleet A310 to the Pakistani government, this has ended the need for use of PIA aircraft. However, from time to time the government does occasionally use the airline's Boeing 737 or Airbus A310 for official trips.

It's interesting to see the reactions of most folks brought on by a desolate landscape. The overall gloomy feeling can leave some a little weary and maybe even vulnerable, but I happen to thrive upon such barren treasures. There is something intriguing about an empty landscape, and I know many photographers will agree with me. Such lonely surroundings leave us wanting to search for the untold story with our cameras. As I've said before, tracks do not lie, so it was evident there was lots of motion the day before, and even fresher tracks were left behind by wildlife just a few hours before I arrived. Why this landscape was so beaten down on this particular morning, I don't know. But I'm sure glad I was there to soak it up on my own.
As I walked along the crunchy snow and ice covered shore of Lake Astotin, I filled up 2 rolls of 120 film, capturing the tracks left behind. While I cannot wait to see the story unfold once the film is developed, I was happy to leave my tracks as part of the landscape for the next photographer to find.
See you in the field!

A flash-sales site for moms and kids called Zulily just raked in $85 million in funding and has released a new iPad app. zulily
In a press release, Zulily says that it will use the round to improve the member experience and that it just launched the Zulily app for iPad, available for free now in the App Store.
Fortune also reports that some of the money from the round will be used to provide liquidity to early shareholders (which ought to get the daily deal naysayers' tongues wagging.)
After getting an MA in journalism from Syracuse University, Teresa worked as a general assignment newspaper reporter—general on purpose because besides the usual city hall and police articles, there was the chance to fly an F-18 with the Blue Angels and tag along with bounty hunters on a stakeout—all good preparation for covering entrepreneurs.

Holy sh*t, the misinformation here is brutal.
Love to see all the h8ters falling right into it. Check out the Neowin front page for both Sinofsky and Ballmer letters.
Friendly resignation, all else is speculation.
Left on good terms:
Maybe not so good terms:
Who knows, who cares, see ya Sinofsky, hello whoever that woman is
Posted 14 November 2012 - 04:49
The letters were only released for the press and investors to dampen the speculation, but a guy like as brilliant as Sinofsky doesn't just leave a power position like that unless there's an internal clash or sudden personal issue.

Timing is tough, but this has absolutely nothing to do with Windows 8.
They have put the woman behind Metro in charge of Windows. If anything this signals an even more rapid transition away from Desktop than previously expected.

By a 115 vote margin, a three tiered $1.2 school referendum in Westby was voted down Tuesday. Superintendent, Chuck Norton told us after the vote that he was disappointed in the outcome and he and the school board will have to sit down to see what cuts will have to be made in 2013-14.
Norton says it's not an easy thing to do but they are used to it. In the past 9 years the district has had to cut almost $2.4 million from school budgets as well as reduce staff positions by 19. Another cost savings measure....they had to close a school in Chaseburg.
Norton says he's not sure yet, but the board may decide to hold another referendum in 2014.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – A Ghana man was sentenced Friday to 18 years in prison, followed by five years of supervised release, for conspiring to import heroin from Ghana into the United States. He was also ordered to forfeit $110,000 following an Organized Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) investigation led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in Washington, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Washington Division Office; and other federal, foreign and state law enforcement agencies.
Mustapha Issaka Zico, 41, of Nima, Ghana, was found guilty Jan. 25 following a three-day trial. Zico was one of the ringleaders of a multi-kilogram heroin trafficking organization in Ghana. The organization used couriers aboard commercial airlines to smuggle heroin from Ghana to the United States, frequently from the Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana, to Dulles International Airport and other airports around the country.
Evidence revealed that Zico and his co-conspirators paid off airport officials in Ghana to allow safe passage of the heroin out of the country. Zico was directly involved in several heroin shipments and directed the activities of previously convicted co-conspirators Edmund Darkwah, Fred Brobbey and Matilda Antwi, all of whom pled guilty. Zico shared leadership of the conspiracy with Edward Macauley, who was also convicted in the Eastern District of Virginia and sentenced to 168 months' imprisonment.
Five defendants were extradited from Ghana to stand trial in the Eastern District of Virginia after coordinated arrests by the Ghanaian Narcotics Control Board, while other co-conspirators were arrested in New York, Maryland and Virginia on July 14, 2011. Still more defendants were charged, arrested, and extradited from Ghana in 2012. In all, 11 co-conspirators were convicted.

Santiago Cruz went off to study in Italy, little knowing that a town like Florence would provide the inspiration for him to develop and exhibit greatly expressive works of art. He held his first workshop in Africa. Santiago tells us that he has learned much through his travels and gained experience in the art market.
Santiago uses varied techniques in his paintings, seeking to evoke certain dynamics, shared moods, overarching themes of battles, sensuality, dream worlds that outlast the vigil, and suspended spaces. The dynamics of this art allow for patterns in a particular painting to be reversed in the next one, only to come back together in the third, thus opening the possibilities for endless permutations and a rhythmic unfurling of colors that are revealed on the surface of oil paints and from within a lucid artistic vision.

Burnouts. We love doing them, but do we know how to do them properly? In a recent issue of National Dragster, David Reher had a great column entitled "Are Burnouts Abusing Your Engine?" I thought his article was so important that I referenced it on The Dragtime News (Dragtimenews.com (http://www NULL.dragtimenews NULL.com/)) site earlier this year as a must-read. On a separate occasion, I had a conversation at The PRI Show with Milodon about a new oil pump they came out with because racers were breaking regular oil pumps on the burnout due to excessive shake. I've long suspected that racers way overdo it on the burnout, but seeing David Reher's article in National Dragster and my conversation at PRI gave me an idea for a more inclusive article about how excessive and/or improper burnout technique can be killing parts.

Bob Beucler: Sportsman Racer With a Pro's MindsetWednesday, October 5th, 2011
Even if you're the most casual sportsman/bracket racer, you know Bob Beucler—if not by name, by his website Dragtimenews.com (http://www NULL.Dragtimenews NULL.com). This guy's one serious bracket racer, who's truly devoted to this style of drag racing. If his website doesn't convince you, his race car, the Dragtime Dodge '64 Polara, and his level of dedication surely will. (more…)
On the DialMonday, August 15th, 2011
I sometimes feel like bracket and sportsman racers are drag racing's forgotten children. It bothers me that the stands at a national event clear out when the dial-in or index classes come to the line. That's why I'm so excited to be presenting a column to the readers of Drag Racer written from the perspective of someone who's logged thousands of bracket passes down the quarter-mile. Perhaps you own a drag car of your own, but have only done heads-up drag racing; or maybe you're a fan of the sport, but have never been down the track yourself. If my column helps bring some understanding as to why racers like me became involved with and dedicated to bracket-style racing, maybe you'll take your own car to the local track and get involved in bracket racing, too.

Anyone else with the sword would look absolutely ridiculous, but it fits me perfectly.
If Russell Crowe appears with a sword, they walk out of the theater.
If so, it shows that the Iranian theocracy ultimately fell on its own sword.
Old English sweord, from Proto-Germanic *swerdan (cf. Old Saxon, Old Frisian swerd, Old Norse sverð, Swedish svärd, Middle Dutch swaert, Dutch zwaard, Old High German swert, German Schwert), related to Old High German sweran "to hurt," from *swertha-, literally "the cutting weapon," from PIE root *swer- (3) "to cut, pierce." Contrast with plowshare is from the Old Testament (e.g. Isaiah ii:4, Micah iv:3). Phrase put (originally do) to the sword "kill, slaughter" is recorded from mid-14c.
of the Hebrew was pointed, sometimes two-edged, was worn in a sheath, and suspended from the girdle (Ex. 32:27; 1 Sam. 31:4; 1 Chr. 21:27; Ps. 149:6: Prov. 5:4; Ezek. 16:40; 21:3-5). It is a symbol of divine chastisement (Deut. 32:25; Ps. 7:12; 78:62), and of a slanderous tongue (Ps. 57:4; 64:3; Prov. 12:18). The word of God is likened also to a sword (Heb. 4:12; Eph. 6:17; Rev. 1:16). Gideon's watchword was, "The sword of the Lord" (Judg. 7:20).

For the marvel comics superhero group, see Redeemers (comics).
The "Redeemers" were a political coalition in the Southern United States during the Reconstruction era, who sought to oust the Republican coalition of freedmen, carpetbaggers and scalawags. They were the southern wing of the Bourbon Democrats, the conservative, pro-business wing of the Democratic Party.
In the 1870s, southern Democrats began to muster some political power as former Confederates began to vote again. It was a movement that gathered energy up until the Compromise of 1877, in the process known as Redemption. White Southerners saw themselves as redeeming the South by regaining power. They appealed to scalawags (white Southerners who supported the Republican Party after the civil war and during the time of reconstruction).
More importantly, in a second wave of violence following secret Ku Klux Klan activity, in many states white paramilitary groups affiliated with the Democratic Party conducted intimidation, terrorism and violence against black voters and their allies to reduce Republican voting and turn officeholders out. They worked openly for specific political ends, and often solicited coverage of their activities by the press. Every election from 1868 on was surrounded by intimidation and violence; they were usually marked by fraud as well. In the aftermath of the disputed gubernatorial election of 1872 in Louisiana, for instance, two slates of local officers were initially certified, contributing to the Colfax Massacre of 1873, in which more than 100 blacks and three whites were killed in a confrontation over control of parish offices. Thousands of armed supporters of the Democratic candidate in Louisiana fought against state forces and took over the state government offices in New Orleans, retreating only before Federal troops. Six Republican officeholders were turned out in Coushatta, Louisiana and told to leave the state. Before they could make their way, they and five to twenty black witnesses were assassinated by white paramilitary. In 1874 the White League started in the Red River area of Louisiana, with chapters rising across the state, especially in rural areas. Similarly, in Mississippi, the Red Shirts were a prominent paramilitary group that enforced Democratic voting by intimidation and murder. Chapters of paramilitary Red Shirts arose and were active in North and South Carolina as well. They disrupted Republican meetings, killed leaders and officeholders, intimidated voters at the polls, or kept them away altogether.
The Redeemers' program emphasized opposition to the Republican government which they considered to be corrupt and a violation of true republican principles. They also worked to reestablish white supremacy. The crippling national economic problems and reliance on cotton meant that the South was struggling. Redeemers denounced taxes higher than what they had known before the war, when the states had few functions, and planters maintained themselves privately. They wanted to reduce state debts. Once in power, they typically cut government spending; shortened legislative sessions; lowered politicians' salaries; scaled back public aid to railroads and corporations; and reduced support for the new systems of public education and some welfare institutions.
As Democrats took over state legislatures, they worked to strip most blacks and many poor whites of their ability to vote. Blacks continued to vote in significant numbers well into the 1880s, and black Congressmen continued to be elected, albeit in ever smaller numbers, until the 1890s. George Henry White, the last Southern black of the post-Reconstruction period to serve in Congress, retired in 1901, leaving Congress completely white.
In the 1890s, the Democrats faced challenges with the Agrarian Revolt, when their control of the South was threatened by the Farmers Alliance, the effects of Bimetallism and the newly created People's Party. On the national level, William Jennings Bryan defeated the Bourbons and took control of the Democratic Party nationwide.
In the former Confederate South, from 1890 to 1908, starting with Mississippi, legislatures of ten of the eleven states passed disfranchising constitutions, which had new provisions for poll taxes, literacy and understanding tests, and residency requirements that effectively disfranchised nearly all blacks and tens of thousands of poor whites in the South. Hundreds of thousands of people were removed from voter registration rolls soon after these provisions were implemented. This ensured preventing another Populist-Republican coalition that could threaten the Democrats.
In Alabama, for instance, in 1900 fourteen Black Belt counties had 79,311 voters on the rolls; by June 1, 1903, after the new constitution, registration had dropped to just 1,081. Statewide Alabama in 1900 had 181,315 blacks eligible to vote. By 1903 only 2,980 were registered, although at least 74,000 were literate. From 1900 to 1903, white registered voters fell by more than 40,000, although their population grew. By 1941, more poor whites than blacks had been disfranchised in Alabama, mostly due to effects of the cumulative poll tax. Estimates were that 600,000 whites and 500,000 blacks had been disfranchised.
African Americans and poor whites were totally shut out of the political process and left without representation. Southern legislatures passed Jim Crow laws imposing segregation in public facilities and places. As blacks were segregated, millions of people were quickly affected, to devastating effect, and the disfranchisement lasted well into the later decades of the 20th century. They were shut out of all offices at the local and state level, as well as Federal level. Those who could not vote could not run for office or serve on juries, so they were never judged by peers.
While Congress had actively intervened for more than 20 years in elections in the South which the House Elections Committee judged to be flawed, after 1896, it backed off from intervening. Many Northern legislators were outraged about the disfranchisement of blacks and some proposed stripping the South of seats in Congress. Although educated African Americans mounted legal challenges (with many secretly funded by educator Booker T. Washington and his northern allies), the Supreme Court upheld Mississippi's and Alabama's provisions in its rulings in Williams v. Mississippi (1898) and Giles v. Harris (1903).
By the turn of the century, white historians, led by the Dunning School, saw Reconstruction as a failure because of its political and financial corruption, its failure to heal the hatreds of the war, and its control by self-serving northern politicians, such as the people around President Grant. Historian Claude Bowers said that the worst part of what he called "the Tragic Era" was the extension of voting rights to freedmen, a policy he claimed led to misgovernment and corruption. The freedmen, the Dunning School historians argued, were not at fault because they were manipulated by corrupt white carpetbaggers interested only in raiding the state treasury and staying in power. They agreed the South had to be "redeemed" by foes of corruption. Reconstruction, in short, violated the values of "republicanism" and they classified all Republicans as "extremists". This interpretation of events was the hallmark of the Dunning School which dominated most history textbooks from 1900 to the 1960s.
Beginning in the 1930s, historians such as C. Vann Woodward and Howard K. Beale attacked the "redemptionist" interpretation of Reconstruction, calling themselves "revisionists" and claimed that the real issues were economic. The Northern Radicals were tools of the railroads, and the Republicans in the South were manipulated to do their bidding. The Redeemers, furthermore, were also tools of the railroads and were themselves corrupt.
In 1935, W.E.B. Du Bois published a Marxist analysis in his Black Reconstruction: An Essay toward a History of the Part which Black Folk Played in the Attempt to Reconstruct Democracy in America, 1860-1880. His book emphasized the role of African Americans during Reconstruction, noted their collaboration with whites, their lack of majority in most legislatures, and also the achievements of Reconstruction: establishing universal public education, improving prisons, establishing orphanages and other charitable institutions, trying to improve state funding for the welfare of all citizens. He also noted that despite complaints, most Southern states kept the constitutions of Reconstruction for many years, some for a quarter of a century.
By the 1960s, neo-abolitionist historians led by Kenneth Stampp and Eric Foner made the struggle of freedmen center stage. While acknowledging corruption in the Reconstruction era, they hold that the Dunning School over-emphasized it while ignoring the worst violations of republican principles — namely denying African Americans their civil rights, including their right to vote

Ctesibius was probably the first head of the Museum of Alexandria. Very little is known of his life but his inventions were well known. It is said (possibly by Diogenes Laertius) that his first career was as a barber. During his time as a barber, he invented a clever counterweight-adjustable mirror. His other inventions include the hydraulis, a water organ that is considered the precursor of the modern pipe organ, and an improved water clock called a clepsydra. The clepsydra kept more accurate time than any clock invented until the Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens detailed the use of a pendulum to regulate a clock in the 17th century. He described the one of the first force pumps for producing a jet of water, or for lifting water from wells, and examples have been found at various Roman sites, such as at Silchester in Britain. The principle of the siphon has also been attributed to him.
According to Diogenes Laertius, Ctesibius was miserably poor. Laertius details this by recounting the following concerning the philosopher Arcesilaus:
Ctesibius's work is chronicled by Vitruvius, Athenaeus, and Philo of Byzantium who repeatedly mentions him, adding that the first mechanicians such as Ctesibius had the advantage of being under kings who loved fame and supported the arts. Proclus (the commentator on Euclid) and Hero of Alexandria (the last of the engineers of antiquity) also mention him.

Nile cruises
Debate continues about whether the Nile is the world's longest river but its long and fascinating history surely makes it the most magical.
Moses was plucked from the reeds here, and in the years of Egyptian greatness, pharoahs such as Tutankhamun and Cleopatra used it to travel up and down their kingdom. A host of historical sites lie along its ancient shores, including the Pyramids of Giza, Karnak, Luxor, Edfu and the incredible Valley of the Kings.
Further south is modern Egypt's greatest achievement, the remarkable Aswan Dam, built to generate electricity, prevent flooding and store precious water.
And while the Nile is synonymous with Egypt, it actually begins its journey much further afield. The Blue Nile starts in Ethiopia, while the longer White Nile can be traced to Rwanda, and the two join near Khartoum in Sudan. It's an extraordinary journey, and a timeless joy for the traveller.

Six Nations: Ireland v Wales preview
Last Updated: 08/02/14 8:30am
The victors of Saturday's eagerly-awaited Six Nations clash between Ireland and reigning champions Wales in Dublin will seriously enhance their title credentials.
Both teams won in round one - Wales beating Italy 23-15 and Ireland overpowering Scotland 28-6 - to set up this potentially-thrilling encounter at the Aviva Stadium.
Wales have triumphed in three of the last four meetings against Ireland, including a 2011 World Cup quarter-final success, but Brian O'Driscoll inspired an Irish win on Welsh soil 12 months ago.
Did you know ...
The countries have met on 119 occasions. Wales lead the series 65-48, with six draws.
The Welsh conceded three tries to Ireland during the opening game of last season's tournament - and then performed defensive shut-outs in successive victories over France, Italy, Scotland and England to take the crown.
In a game laced with sub-plots, Ireland centre O'Driscoll will line up against a Wales team coached by last year's British and Irish Lions boss Warren Gatland, who controversially omitted O'Driscoll from his side that crushed Australia 41-16 in a Test series decider.
Ireland head into the contest having not opened a campaign with back-to-back victories since their 2009 Grand Slam season and a victory would leave them needing to beat England at Twickenham later this month to clinch a Triple Crown.
However, Wales have not lost an away game in the competition since they were beaten by France in Paris in 2011.
Team news
Ireland captain Paul O'Connell is confident he can play through any lingering effects of the chest infection that forced his late withdrawal last weekend. The 34-year-old Munster lock made a full return to training on Thursday after sitting out Tuesday's session entirely.
Boss Joe Schmidt had no qualms pitching O'Connell back into his line-up, with Gordon D'Arcy replacing Luke Marshall at inside centre in the only other change.
Schmidt admits his Ireland side must play a smart, tactical game in order to overcome their opponents.
"Man-to-man they are a very big side. If you try to go through them then you often don't have a lot of success. We are going to have to be fairly smart about the way we play."
Ireland coach Joe Schmidt
"It's pretty hard to pinpoint the weaknesses (of Wales)," he said. "Man-to-man they are a very big side. If you try to go through them then you often don't have a lot of success. We are going to have to be fairly smart about the way we play.
"We've got a few things that we're going to try and implement on Saturday and, in retrospect, we'll be able to talk post-match about whether those things work out."
Wales welcome back captain Sam Warburton to their starting XV while full-back Leigh Halfpenny will win his 50th cap.
Gatland knows they will have to up their game if they are to atone for last year's 30-22 defeat in Cardiff.
"It is a massive game for both teams," he said. "We haven't lost an away match in the Six Nations since 2011, and we have to have the belief and confidence that we can do it again this weekend."

Jamaica booked their place in the quarter-finals of the CONCACAF Gold Cup after seeing off Group B opponents Guatemala 2-0 in Miami.
Demar Phillips was the difference between the sides, scoring in the 65th and 78th minutes to hand the Caribbean champions the win.
After being frustrated for over an hour, the Reggae Boyz finally broke the deadlock when Phillips coasted into the penalty area and surpassed Jonathan Lopez before finding the net.
Phillips scored his second 15 minutes later when he turned home a Dane Richards cross. Guatemala held on for the final 20 minutes with ten men after Cristian Noriega was sent off for a second caution.

LOS ANGELES: Aerialists, acrobats and contortionists from Cirque du Soleil are among the guests at this year's Academy Awards.
The 3-minute performance at the Oscars on Feb. 26 will be among the international troupe's biggest yet, said Cirque du Soleil special events director Yasmine Khalil, featuring more than 50 artists. Most Cirque shows employ 75 to 80 artists over 2 hours, she said.
Cirque du Soleil has a show now at the Kodak Theater, where the Oscars will be presented, but the performance for the awards telecast is "unique for this one evening" and not taken from any of the troupe's 22 productions playing around the world.
Performers from those shows, however, are heading to Hollywood. Khalil says artists from Japan and Russia are flying in to participate in the Academy Awards segment.
"The theme is very much in line with paying tribute to the movie-theater experience," Khalil said, adding it was different from "Iris," Cirque's show at the Kodak Theater, which is billed as "a journey into the world of cinema."
Like "Iris," the music for the troupe's Oscar performance was composed by Danny Elfman.
Cirque du Soleil troupes were reluctant to perform on television in years past "because we felt as though a lot of it got lost in translation," Khalil said, but they appreciated the way their performance came across in the 74th Academy Awards. "That boosted our confidence knowing that we're comfortable in front of the camera."
Khalil and the performers have been working on their routine since before Christmas.
"To capture 50 people jumping around everywhere from the ceiling and from the ground and right and left and center, it's a whole added challenge," she said.
That challenge extends to the viewers, too. "They should be very attentive," she said. "You don't want to be blinking too much because you might miss something."

Holly Madison's Dogs Aren't Thrilled With New Baby Rainbow
Sibling rivalry alert!
Holly Madison already had three dogs before she brought home baby Rainbow Aurora (not to mention the random new chickens). It sounds like Holly's original canine kids aren't thrilled with the changes.
"There's pee everywhere when I come downstairs," Holly told Us Weekly at The Animal Foundation's 10th Annual "Best in Show" fundraiser in Las Vegas. "Before the baby came home, I think they could just sense it — they started going wild. I think they're just saying, 'This is our house. It's not the baby's house.'"
Holly said she and her baby daddy, Pasquale Rotella, had the dogs boarded at a training camp for two weeks when she first brought the baby home, because she was afraid the dogs would be too aggressive. "They're little but they're very rambunctious and sometimes they get a little snappy with people."
She said Rainbow — who was born on March 5 — hasn't had much contact with the dogs yet, and Holly always keeps the door to her bedroom closed, since that's where Rainbow is sleeping right now.
It's always tough to do the baby-pets transition, so hopefully they can figure this out so that the dogs love Rainbow as much as her parents do. In the meantime, you can't blame the poor puppies for expressing their confusion with peeing on the floor — but poor Holly (or whoever) for having to clean it up!
Holly's new E! special, Holly Has a Baby, airs Sunday, May 12 at 9 p.m.

In one year's time, if the opinion polls are right, Britain may well have a Labour government. And that could mean good news for science. The party's science manifesto Pushing back the Frontiers, published last month, promises a cornucopia of goodies for the research community, including a generous increase in funding. Neil Kinnock has been photographed next to a statue of Michael Faraday - the epitome of working-class man turned world-class scientist - promising a new dawn around the corner.
There were more promises last week, when Gordon Brown, the party's spokesman for Trade and Industry, unveiled its plans for supporting British technology and manufacturing. Among them was the proposal to set up Technology Trusts, which will be intended to bring together universities, industrialists and financing institutes, a far cry from some of the more centralist policies of the past.
Many of Labour's proposals for science are certainly desirable, even ...

Boom! You can almost feel the impact that formed this recent Martian crater. Yes, Martian – the planet's characteristic red has been removed from this image, leaving just the bluish hues of the material thrown up from beneath the surface.
The crater is about 30 metres across, and the impact ejected material as far as 15 kilometres away. This image was snapped by NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) last November, but the asteroid that made the splash is thought to have hit Mars between July 2010 and May 2012. MRO's low-resolution camera spotted a change in the surface between those two dates, so NASA scientists trained the high-res camera on the area for a closer look.
MRO has previously captured avalanches that Marsquakes may have caused, mysterious rolling boulders and even papped its robot buddies on the planet's surface.

Yamaha Power V Special Edition made in England
Hey guys,
So i thinking of buying a used yamaha power v special edition from 1994.
I wanna know if it is a good purchase because imagine i need to buy a part of the drum kit for exame, a tom or bassdrum... I dont think they sell it anymore...
Opinions please.
Re: Yamaha Power V Special edition made in england
Long since discontinued. Haven't been made since the early 1990's.
They were made when Yamaha owned Premier drums, which ended in 1995.
They also didn't sell very well at the time due to the Pearl Export and Tama Rockstar being similar quality, but at lower price point than the Yamaha, and due to their similarity to rather popular (at the time) Premier ABK and XPK lines.
They were replaced by the first generation of Stage Customs.
So as far finding adds ons, forget it.
But for a decent entry/intermediate drum kit, they're not bad by any means.
Re: Yamaha Power V Special edition made in england
It depends entirely on the price that's being asked. I would pay around £350 for them in reasonable condition at the most.
Re: Yamaha Power V Special edition made in england
I'm a Yamaha guy (currently own 3 Yamaha kits). I once bought a Power V floor tom used to round out a kit I was selling. My bad. The shell was such poor quality that I trashed it and sold off all of the hardware to get my money back. I coudn't even bring myself to sell the intact drum to anyone else. That's how poor it was. Stay away. I would buy anything over a Power V kit. Seriously.
Re: Yamaha Power V Special edition made in england
Thanks on the tips guys.
Here is the drumkit on the portuguese version of ebay: http://www.custojusto.pt/Castelo+Bra...1.htm?xtcr=16&

Detailed thermal-hydraulic analysis of commercial power reactors requires modeling of complex multidimensional thermal, fluids, and neutronic behavior. One code that has three-dimensional (3-D) thermal-hydraulic and neutronic capabilities is RELAP-3D. A comparison of RELAP-3D predictions to experimental data obtained during start-up of the Kozloduy VVER-1000 nuclear power plant in Bulgaria is presented here. The experiment has distinguishable 3-D hydraulics effects that allow for code model verification and reasonable agreement with the experimental results obtained.The transient investigated was conducted at 29% reactor power, and it was initiated from a steady state where three out of four reactor coolant pumps were operating. The transient consisted of the start-up of the nonoperating pump. Simulation results were compared to both temperature and pump data from the experiment. Temperature predictions compared reasonably well to the experimental data; however, discrepancies existed between predicted and experimental pump head values.

The number of cigarette butts in the litter stream has gone down according to the 2010-11 National Litter Index (NLI) released today by Keep Australia Beautiful National to coincide with the start of Keep Australia Beautiful Week.
A total of 29 butts per 1000m² were found in 2010-11, compared to 32 in 2009-10 and a high of 35 butts in 2006-07.
Butts still remain the most numerous individual item by number in the litter stream, followed by plastics with 12 items per 1,000m² and paper with 11 items.
Overall litter was down at 61 items per 1,000m² in 2010-11, compared to 66 items in 2009-10 and a high of 74 items in 2006-07.
The overall volume of litter also decreased recording 6.49 litres per 1,000m² in 2010-11, down from 7.55 litres in 2009-10 and a high of 9.68 litres in 2006-07.
Overall butts represent only a very small volume of litter, just 0.003 litres per 1000m², and while down from 0.004m² in 2009-10 due to their small size the volume has varied very little over the life of the National Litter Index.
Commenting on the results, CEO of Butt Free Australia Wendy Jones said 'It's good news overall for butts particularly as the long term average is trending downwards and proves that we are making slow but steady progress'.
'Of course there is still a lot of variance between states with Victoria (18), ACT (23) and South Australia (23) coming in below the national average while Western Australia (32),New South Wales (33) and Queensland (41) were all above.'
'Disappointingly what we hoped was a one off unusually high count in Tasmania last year (56) was nearly matched again with 53 butts per 1,000m² while the Northern Territory recorded an exceptional low count of 15 due possibly to the exceptional wet conditions experienced over the year' Jones said.
In its efforts to address butt litter, Butt Free Australia will continue with its 'Not a Good Look' campaign over the coming months ensuring that personal responsibility is kept to the forefront of the butt littering issue while highlighting the environmental consequences of butt litter.
'The response to the Not a Good Look campaign over the past year has been really encouraging ' Jones said. 'And with our re-developed campaign website and new Facebook page the message is really starting to cut through'.
'By providing tools such as personal ashtrays, posters for workplaces and information on how to report littering, the Not a Good Look campaign is not just a powerful message but an effective tool for taking action'.
'We encourage everyone to visit http://www.notagoodlook.com.au/ and learn more about the problems and myths associated with butt litter and find out how you can help create a Butt FREE Australia' Jones added.
Keep Australia Beautiful Week with its theme 'Dropped on Land, Kills at Sea' highlights the growing threat to marine and coastal environments and the harm caused to marine mammals and other wildlife by litter and runs until Sunday 28 August.

The Team Behind LEGALLY BLONDE Announce LIFE OF THE PARTY Opera for May
Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and the Performing Arts is proud to announce the world premiere of Life Of The Party, a light opera for dark times. Following the huge success of last year's production of Kismet, director Paul Lincoln and the LaGuardia High School Opera Workshop tackle this completely original work, written and composed by Tony Award nominees Laurence O'Keefe (Legally Blonde, Bat Boy) and Nell Benjamin (Legally Blonde, Pirates!). The show plays a strictly limited run, with performances May 3rd, 4th and 5th at 7:30pm and May 6th at 2:00pm.
Set in 1953 in Stalin's Soviet Union, Life Of The Party tells the story of a director who, denounced by his wife and star actress, is released after 10 years' hard labor in Siberia and ordered by Stalin to make a communist movie musical to compete with Singin' In the Rain, On The Town and the other musical films pouring in from the West.
The film he's ordered to make -- "The Happy Bandit", a thinly veiled ode to Stalin himself -- is a suicide mission. But hungry for freedom and a chance for revenge against his wife, he agrees to direct. And production begins, complete with temperamental stars, secret police informers, and a chorus of women from the local insane asylum.
Based on true stories of the brave men and women who labored to make art and music in Stalin's Russia, Life Of The Party is a darkly comic, universal story about love, betrayal and just trying to do your job in an insane time and place.
The cast and orchestra are made up entirely of LaGuardia High School students, who have ambitiously agreed to mount an original opera production while still maintaining the highest academic standards.
LHS's Opera Workshop Artistic Director is Mary Ann Swerdfeger; Bernice Fleischer is head of the Music Department, and LHS Principal is Kim Bruno.
Nell Benjamin co-wrote the score to Legally Blonde The Musical with Laurence O'Keefe, for which they received Tony Award and Drama Desk nominations, and won Olivier Award for Best Musical. Nell's disturbingly free adaptation of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance, called Pirates! (Or, Gilbert and Sullivan Plunder'd) ran at the Goodspeed Opera House ,the Paper Mill Playhouse, and the Huntington Theater and will be playing at the MUNY this July. With Larry as composer, Nell wrote lyrics for Sarah, Plain and Tall, originally developed by TheatreworksUSA. Sarah played at Off-Broadway's Lucille Lortel Theater and at Dallas Theater Center in 2009. Nell and Larry were nominated for a 2005 Drama Desk for Best Book of a Musical for Cam Jansen (also developed by Theatreworks USA) and won an L.A. Ovation award for their first collaboration, The Mice. Nell's work for television includes the last and weirdest season of "Unhappily Ever After", Animal Planet's "Whoa! Sunday with Mo Rocca", and the new "Electric Company".

Jessica Chastain follows a vegan lifestyle and admits it helps her lose weight quickly for television and film roles. While on set of The Help, Chastain's character had to eat fried chicken. Luckily for the actress, the powers that be were able to mask a vegan meal as fried chicken.
"The scene where I was eating fried chicken, they made me vegan fried chicken. It probably [didn't taste as good] as fried chicken. They did an amazing job. They took a turkey dog and tofurkey and battered it, and deep fried it," Chastain said. "I haven't had meat in so long. I've been vegan for five years and vegetarian for 15 years, so if I had had meat, I wouldn't have been able to do the scene. They all thought I was just chowing down."
Chastain's vegan diet influenced her mother to make the same lifestyle switch. Now, Momma Chastain runs her own vegan restaurant.

10th - 26th APRIL
All breaks for all arrivals
T&Cs apply, click here for details
The only thing that lacked is somewhere to buy daily items like milk and bread
Sleeping on a sofa bed is not 4 star
Place fine clean and warm
Just Needs updating
Looks like a granny flat with a tv from 1980
Should have a double bed in bedroom and sofa bed for kids
Could be so much better with a bit of thought
Great accommodation. Everything you need. Well heated for a Christmas break.
Excellent location just two minutes walk from the most perfect beach. The accommodation advertises as luxurious but I would personally describe as standard. No double bed, just two singles and bed settee in the lounge. We were not fortunate enough to get a sea view, instead our balcony overlooked the car park and fields beyond. Still, a very calm and peaceful setting, which in our opinion the location was definitely the best part of the holiday.
Easy walk to the beach,friendly people, had a lovely time.
Great location, great beach, great food & great vibe!
Great location. Couldn't have asked for anywhere better. Didn't really see staff there that often . Apartment was well equipped with everything there u needed. We had six occupants so was probably on the small side but for what we paid we couldn't fault it. Would come again.
Apartment was good would have liked to have seen more new modern sofas everything else was fine.
You are allocated a parking space so was annoyed when we came back one day to find someone parked there. The manager was not there so rang another number and was told to park in a space where no one was staying that night.
