Barney's roasted rhubarb
Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Rinse 400g rhubarb and shake off excess water. Trim the ends, then cut into little-finger-size pieces. Put in a shallow dish or a baking tray, tip over 50g caster sugar, toss together, then shuffle rhubarb so it's in a single layer. Cover with foil, then roast for 15 mins. Remove foil. Give everything a little shake, roast for 5 mins more or until tender and the juices are syrupy.
- Make the roasted rhubarb first, carefully draining off the juices before you let it cool. Butter and line a 23cm loose-bottomed or springform cake tin. Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4.
- Reserve 3 tbsp of the custard in a bowl. Beat the rest of the custard together with the butter, flour, baking powder, eggs, vanilla and sugar until creamy and smooth. Spoon one-third of the mix into the tin, add some of the rhubarb, then dot with one-third more cake mix and spread it out as well as you can. Top with some more rhubarb, then spoon over the remaining cake mix, leaving it in rough mounds and dips rather than being too neat about it. Scatter the rest of the rhubarb over the batter, then dot the remaining custard over. Bake for 40 mins until risen and golden, then cover with foil and bake for 15-20 mins more. It's ready when a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cool in the tin, then dredge with icing sugar when cool.

Comments, questions and tips
Superb cake. Nice and tart rhubarb flavour, with the kitsch custard quirk. I feltbad buying a tub of pre-made custard, but given the small quantity required, it made sense.
Agree with other reviews - more cooking time needed, so was glad for the diligent tin lining, but would advocate a loose layer of foil over the top to stop too much browning.
Amazing cake, so easy to make and what a crowd pleaser - delicious!!! I cooked the rhubarb slightly longer and found that I had no problems with pieces sinking to the bottom. I did need to cook cake for longer - 25 minutes covered with foil. Cake moist and fluffy, and will certainly be making again.
Having read all the comments I followed the ingredients to the letter. After one hours baking it was obviously far from cooked. After another 40 minutes baking the knife finally came out clean. I was surprised as the batter I thought was quite stiff before baking also despite following the layer routine, all the rhubarb ended up at the bottom of the cake. Nothing wrong with the taste though, well worth the effort, I just wish the rhubarb had been more evenly spread throughout the cake. If I make it again I would try smaller pieces of rhubarb.
I made this cake this morning and as with most other posts you really have to bake it for a fair amount longer than stated , i didn't time how much longer but just kept a close eye on it ...it was worth the wait and absolutely delicious i agree with some other post that its more of a pudding type of cake and would be great warm with cream/custard or ice cream and i will definitely make it again
Read all the comments before I started, turned out wonderful! Made sure I dried the rhubarb well before roasting and allowed it to drain well after before using it. I baked the it uncovered for 60 min then covered the time stated. Tested it before taking it out with a skewer. It was delicious and was even better the days after! A new family favorite!
Love this. The all in one method of the cake mix turned out surprisingly well. I also had to cook the cake for longer by 20 minutes though.
The only thing I'd change would be to be cut the rhubarb into smaller pieces before cooking because it was difficult to cut up after roasting and I think smaller pieces work in the cake.

Remaking old shows is a cop out unless they do like Battlestar did because that show is not really a remake but rather a continuation of the old show plus other than Mad Men, its the best written show on TV.
Going back to what someone said about Days not making a dent in the $500 million, well it depends on how you look at it. NBC may be able to make more money showing reruns of a show they already own than what they make off Days. Remember whatever money Days makes is split between Corday, Sony and NBC.

Looks like Boise State is headed to Las Vegas.
With Nevada taking a slot in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl, Boise was looking for the best possible matchup. There was talk about Boise playing Miami in the Sun Bowl, but the Sun Bowl is pretty much set on a Miami vs. Notre Dame game.
So where does that leave Boise? Well the Maaco Bowl in Las Vegas needs to fill a slot because there won't be enough bowl-eligible teams out of the Pac-10, so Boise will fill that spot.
Several sites are reporting this, including the Boise student newspaper .

Thirty years in the writing, Selden Edwards' dazzling first novel is an irresistible triumph of the imagination. Wheeler Burden-banking heir, philosopher, student of history, legend's son, rock idol, writer, lover, recluse, half-Jew, and Harvard baseball hero-one day finds himself wandering not in his hometown of San Francisco in 1988 but in a city and time he knows mysteriously well: Vienna, 1897. Before long, Wheeler acquires a mentor in Sigmund Freud, a bitter rival, a powerful crush on a luminous young woman, and encounters everyone from an eight-year-old Adolf Hitler to Mark Twain as well as the young members of his own family. Solving the riddle of Wheeler's dislocation in time will ultimately reveal nothing short of one eccentric family's unrivaled impact upon the course of human history.
Edwards, author of "The Lost Prince," brilliantly weaves romance, art, history, and culture in this unforgettable and dazzling debut novel.

- We learn at the beginning of The Little Book that the story will be narrated by Flora Zimmerman Burden, the mother of Wheeler Burden. Why did the author choose Flora to fill the role of narrator? How might the book be different if Wheeler told the story in the first person?

Pendle Hall Dolls' House - Room 17 Morning Room
Image: Pendle Hall Dolls House - Room 17 Morning Room
Source: Museum Victoria
The morning room is one of 21 rooms in the dolls' house Pendle Hall. It was designed and decorated by Felicity Clemons over a forty year period, and each piece of furniture and fixture was handmade by her. She used books and magazines for inspiration, and to achieve a high level of accuracy in the design and execution of each item.
It is a large room on the first floor of the house, directly above the dining room. It was used to received guests as well as a place to carry out activities such as needlework, reading or taking morning tea. It was usually located on the side of the house that took advantage of the morning sun.
In the centre of the room is a wooden drop leafed table, with decoupage decorations. Behind it is a small wooden writing desk with a small stuffed seat in front of it.
On the left hand wall is a large wooden roll top writing desk, on which sits two candlesticks. Next to it is an elaborate decorated chair, with a gold upholstered seat. On the right hand wall are a matching elaborate decorated chair, with a gold upholstered seat, and a gold upholstered wooden settee.
On the back wall is a large open fire place, containing firewood, which is surrounded by an elaborate plaster moulded mantle piece and overmantel. On either side is an arched shaped alcove containing a set of five shells, surmounted by a moulded plaster starburst design. The shelves contain various pieces of a white transfer ware porcelain dinner service, including plates, dishes, tureens, gravy boats, and a condiment set.
Around the walls are five framed paintings. On the centre of the right hand wall is a long rectangular sash window, with a pair of green curtains.
The walls are decorated with moulded plaster decorations. A four branched candelabra hangs from the ceiling. The floor is covered with intricately decorated parquetry. Along the front is a strip of multicoloured parquetry, signifying a separate hallway, on which sit a green and black painted stand holding a white male bust (a matching piece to the one outside the library.)
In the room is an older female who is sitting at the smaller writing desk and older male who is sitting on the settee reading a newspaper.Related Stories:

Love it! There aren't enough paleo resources out there yet and this app was one of the first I downloaded. Been on paleo for 4 months now and never felt better. Thanks and keep it up!

I tried the paleo diet last year, and got really sick with gastroenteritis because of it. It isn't for everyone.
a resident of Palo Alto Hills

Checked with my gastroenterologist: he explained that people of Middle Eastern and Caucasian descent generally do not do well on the paleo diet. The reason is that those populations evolved with more dietary grains than others.

Can songwriting be affected by atmosphere? Yes, it most definitely can.
If you've been following my blog posts, you will know I recently recorded guitar solos for the new White Wizzard album, The Devil's Cut. I recently got together with my band mate and fellow White Wizzard guitarist, Jake Dreyer, to go over our favorite solos from the album and show you how to play them.
Around the time of the last entry I had just joined the heavy metal band White Wizzard (Earache Records), and shortly thereafter we left for a month long tour with Firewind in the United States, followed by a two month European run as direct support for Iced Earth.
Hey, all fellow guitar nerds/guitar geeks, my name is Jake Dreyer and here is my first column for GuitarWorld.com. First off, just a little background about myself. I am a 19-year-old guitarist from Panama City Beach, Florida, who did the most cliché thing a young inspiring guitarist can do: I moved out west to Los Angeles to attend Musicians Institute.

Barclays names Jones, Nakai as co-CEOs for Asia Pacific
HONG KONG May 2 Barclays PLC has named Andrew Jones and Eiji Nakai as co-chief executive officers for Asia Pacific, replacing the retiring Robert Morrice.
The appointments are subject to regulatory approval, the UK-based bank said in a statement on Friday.
Jones, currently the region's chief operating officer, joined the bank in 2000 and has worked in Hong Kong and Singapore in fixed income and corporate finance roles.
Nakai has been Barclays' Japan chief executive since 2004, and will continue in that role. (Reporting by Lawrence White; Editing by Christopher Cushing)

Big banks break rules and pay fines. Traditionally it's just a cost of doing business. Uber, meanwhile, pays fines when drivers violate regulations that stand in the way of its business model. Nowadays banks attract outrage, but Uber is often forgiven in the name of disruption.
Altice's $9 bln U.S. foray shows controlled ambition
Patrick Drahi's telecoms group is paying 10.1 times EBITDA to enter the U.S. cable market. But cost-cutting should reduce the multiple, and it could be a springboard for further consolidation. It's a more conservative step than another mooted deal: a tilt at Time Warner Cable.
BP and Total find downstream respite
Strong results in refining and marketing limited the profit fall at the two European majors. With the oil price down, the gains are especially welcome. But downstream overcapacity will bite in the medium term, while upstream businesses remain hostage to the oil market.
French investment banking has less than meets eye
Returns at BNP Paribas' and Societe Generale's trading and advisory businesses are better than peers. But the pair's divisions carry less equity against gross assets than rivals. Before dashing in, investors should consider what the return would be with greater leverage restraint.
Hairy deals mean European animal spirits returning
Shell-BG and Nokia-Alcatel are complicated, long-mooted deals finally coming to fruition. Exor's move is just plain ballsy. American firms powered last year's $3.5 trln global M&A bonanza. With Old World boards and bosses becoming more daring, Europe looks set to catch up.
Nokia will struggle to cut through Alcatel tangle
An all-stock takeover by the Finnish company would create a roughly 40 bln euro telecoms equipment giant. Nokia investors are understandably sceptical. A deal would mean another big restructuring and stretch the buyer's industrial expertise. The French connection adds complexity.
Hermes shares look too glossy
The French group weathered luxury market headwinds well in 2014 and will pay a 530 mln euro special dividend. Rivals Kering and LVMH were hit harder but are recovering. That makes the silk tie-maker's luxury valuation of 32 times forward earnings more difficult to justify.
Holcim can push for more in Lafarge tie-up
The Swiss cement group is outperforming its French rival, creating cracks in their $44 bln union. A special dividend or higher exchange ratio could fix matters. That is more likely to happen than deal failure, given that both sides would suffer if it fell apart.
French telco buyout shows dealmaker in a hurry
Vivendi is selling its residual 20 pct in Numericable-SFR to the mobile operator itself and parent Altice for 3.9 bln euros. This helps Altice's billionaire boss Patrick Drahi prepare for a follow-on deal with Bouygues. It's harder to see why Vivendi would accept a big markdown.
ECB, Syriza have broken euro zone's German spell
The European Central Bank's easing and the Greek anti-austerity party's electoral victory show the euro zone is breaking free of German dominance. With loose monetary policy and banking union, it seems ready for growth-friendly policies that don't ignore economic reality.

VIEWS: 7 PAGES: 2 POSTED ON: 3/22/2011 Public Domain
New Regulations for the Labelling and Advertising of Foods come into effect early next year Written by CFL for La Femme - Port Elizabeth. CFL e-mail address: firstname.lastname@example.com The publication of these new regulations is a watershed moment for the South African consumer and the food industry alike. The regulations which was published on 1 March 2010 replaces the previous outdated regulations and aim to give the consumer more protection and information to assist with making more informed food choices. The regulations place more restrictions on food companies that have often used clever marketing and wording to convince us of a whole plethora of product benefits that were often exaggerated or even did not really exist! In the past penalties for non-compliance with these regulations meant that many manufacturers took the gaps, but this has changed and both fines and jail terms can be imposed on those found to be non compliant. Together with the Consumer Protection Act whose underlying philosophy is one of "guilty until proven innocent", that has been promulgated and will also come into effect in 2012, there is a huge responsibility on the food industry as a whole to comply and consumers will now have stronger recourse when they feel that they are being misled or even lied to. Who must comply with food labeling regulations? The answer is simple – anyone who makes and distributes or sells food in South Africa. What is key is that the regulations apply to not only the actual product label of foods but also to their advertising. So not only must the label of a food in the supermarket or home industry or deli comply, but so too must their television, magazine and other forms of advertising. It also applies to both pre-packaged and non- prepackaged or bulk stock foods. So whether it is a single portion pack off the shelf or is packaged for you from a larger container in a deli counter, all must comply, although there are some specific exemptions. How do the new requirements protect consumers? The new regulations protect the consumer in many ways and make the provision of certain information mandatory. Seven examples are: 1. Allergens – for the first time all common allergens (egg, milk (cows and goats), crustaceans & molluscs, fish, peanuts, soybeans, tree nuts, wheat) must be declared and in the case of certain cereals the word "gluten" must also be specified. These allergy declarations must be made as part of the ingredients list or appear in a list or table just below the ingredients list. 2. Date marking – for the first time, all foods now HAVE TO carry an expiry date. This can be identified as either a "Best Before" or "Use By" and "Sell By" and depends on the type and nature of the product. "Best before" dates are generally used for shelf stable foods and this date signifies the time period during which the food will be at its best. After this date it will gradually deteriorate in quality, but will most likely still be safe to consume for a period. "Use By" dates are used for perishable foods and the date indicates the time up to which the product should be used and should not be consumed after this date. "Sell By" dates are commonly used by retailers to control stock levels, but can be used for consumer information. 3. Ingredients – although an ingredients list has always been mandatory there are some important changes. All additives can be labeled by their category name, for example colourant, flavouring or anti-caking agent, except for MSG, Tartrazine which must be specified and preservatives and anti- oxidants which must be specified by their common chemical name. Also any additive containing a common allergen must declare the allergen. Additionally if an ingredient is made up of a number of ingredients itself, for example Worcester sauce which is made up of water, vinegar, syrup, sugar, salt, spices, colourants, flavourings and sometimes anchovy essence, then all these compound ingredients must also be declared. More reading but more information. 4. QUID (quantitative ingredient declaration) – This is something new to look out for and essentially requires that where a specific ingredient/s or characteristic is emphasized in the name or description of the food, the exact amount has to be declared as a percentage either after the name or description or ingredient in the ingredient list. For example chips that are labeled "with extra cheese" would need to inform the consumer exactly how much cheese they actually contain and "Blueberry muffins" will also need to say what percentage of the muffin is blueberries. 5. Country of origin – Although some manufacturers have been doing this on a voluntary basis, it now becomes mandatory for all foods to declare the country of origin. This allows consumers to identify where all the main ingredients in the food come from (e.g. Product of South Africa) or whether some are from elsewhere (e.g. Produced/Manufactured/Processed/Made in South Africa). In addition, the manufacturer can also state whether the food was only "Packed in South Africa". 6. Nutritional information – Sadly from a public health point of view the provision of nutrition information on foods remains voluntary unless a nutrition or health claim is made. However when it CFL Article Page 1 of 2 is provided, the source of the information must be declared and it must be in a standard, prescribed tabular format giving both per 100g and per reasonable single serving. This will make comparisons between products easier if/when they provide the information. Interestingly the regulations require that the manufacturer must have scientific justification for how such a serving size was determined and they must not encourage super-sized portions! 7. Claims - There are strict criteria to be met to make any nutrient content claims (e.g. Low in fat) and certain specific nutrition information will also have to be supplied based on the nature of the claims (e.g. The low fat claim would also need to give information on all the types of fat in the product) In addition a number of claims are now prohibited and in many cases the exact claim wording is prescribed and may not be deviated from. Unfortunately the controversial issues of many health claims (nutrient function, enhanced function, reduction of disease risk, probiotic/prebiotic, Glycaemic Index) have not been included, but will be published as a separate regulation at a later date once the Department of Health has gathered more information and devised a way to ensure that any such health claims are evidence based and tightly controlled – certain categories of foods might even be prohibited from ever making such claims. Which claims cannot be made on foods? 1. The use of the term x % fat (or other nutrient) free. 2. Water has been hard hit and may make no nutrition claims/energy claims or claims with a nutrition related message. 3. Words, pictorial representations, marks, logos or descriptions which create an impression that the food is supported by, endorsed by, complies with or has been manufactured in accordance with: Health practitioners (individually / professional association / consumer advisory organizations) Organisations, Associations, Foundations, other entities unless approved by the Director- General and can prove generic health promotion supported by evidence-based nutrition & do not contradict these regulations in terms of nutrition claims & criteria Individual endorsements or testimonials when implying a nutrition claim Manufacturer/sellers endorsement with regard to nutritional or safety properties unless valid under these regulations and substantiation must be given within 2 working days 4. None of the following words or similar words with the same implications: "health" or "healthy" or "wholesome" or "nutritious" or "complete" or "balanced" or "cure" or any other medicinal claim 5. No claim may be made on the label that the food has acquired nutritive value from nutrients or substances added for technical or sensory reasons. For example: A product may not claim to contain Vitamin C if the vitamin C is added as an antioxidant. 6. Claims cannot refer to anything not in the package - provided if an adjunct then it must be clearly indicated and nutritional information can only be for what is in the package. For example: A cereal product may claim to contain calcium if it is clearly indicated that milk has been added to the cereal. 7. No sugar added / No added sugar claims are NOT allowed for any food containing any one or combination of the following sugars: xylose and mono- and disaccharides such as corn syrup, deionised, deflavoured fruit concentrates and juices, dextrose, dextrose syrup, fructose, fructose syrup, glucose, glucose syrup, invert sugar, lactose, maltose, maltose syrup, sucrose and sucrose syrup. Who enforces these regulations? Although regulations in South Africa are set at the national level, enforcement happens at the local level. Thus, the Environmental Health Practitioners of the Nelson Mandela Metro Municipality are the law enforcers where we live. Sadly due to a poor understanding of the complexity of the regulations, limited resources and more urgent issues to deal with, enforcement is likely to be poor. There is no doubt that there will be strong self-regulation from the food industry itself with non-compliant competitors being reported to the Advertising Standards Authority. But above all each and every one of us as consumers have the right to also report non-compliant companies to either the local authority or the Advertising Standards Authority and so when the enforcement date of 1st March 2012 comes around, we as consumers need to ensure that our rights, as proved by both these new food regulations and the Consumer Protection Act are protected. At the end of the day it is up to us to ensure that the foods we eat, contribute towards our health and that ultimate goal of a well-balanced, varied diet that is part of a total healthy lifestyle. /ENDS CFL Article Page 2 of 2

Historical Traveler Reviews La Quinta Inn Orlando International Drive
Great value.... location... everything.
I reserved La Quinta for my handicapped mother who is a big complainer. It was clean, the staff was great and the location is super convenient. My mom had no complaints at all... even complimented it several times..... a miracle... yippee!!!!
I live in Orlando so am familiar with the area... and know how bad traffic can be on International Drive... but the hotel access is just around the corner from the ramp to I4... just south of Sand Lake. It's in a cul de sac so you don't see the traffic... it's as secluded a feeling as is possible in that area.
Also.. there are tons of great restaurants within walking distance... or a short cab, or I-drive trolley ride away.
They have a great pool area... a nice little poolside bar with food that opens in the evening, hot tub, etc.
They even take PETS.
You really can't find a better deal on I-drive.... though if you want to spend a few more dollars... stay at any of the higher end ROSEN Hotels.... the Plaza, or the Centre. Mr. Rosen's Quality Inn on I-drive is a great family/value hotel... with a nice restaurant also and the kids will meet friends quickly at the pool.
Harris Rosen, the owner, is the nicest millionaire/billionaire I've ever met... he does tons of charity work... gives back to the community in numerous ways and his hotels are a reflection of his "down home - good guy" personality.
Both his larger hotels are on either side of the convention center... so convenient if you have business there... and they have a new golf course off I-drive called Shingle Creek... you'll probably get a deal there if you play.
Nice hotel for area
I know the hotels around Disney World are used hard, but the La Quinta has held up well. It's nothing fancy, and the hotel definitely shows signs of wear. However, the rooms are large and clean, and the continental breakfast is very nice. Unfortunately, a busy freeway runs along the back of the hotel, so if I stayed there again, I would request a room facing the pool. It was a little noisy, but otherwise, it was a nice stay.
Fantastic Hotel
My boyfriend and I stayed at the La Quinta Inn at Jamican Court between the 25 November - 2 December 2004 and had a wonderful experience.
On arrival at the hotel the reception staff were very friendly, the room was great and had everything you would ever need. We booked through CRS Hotels and got a rate of $48 per night which was great compared to other websites.
Our room was on the ground floor but there is elevators to the other floors so you don't have to carry your luggage up stairs. The room was very quite and near to the pool area. The pool bar was good and there was a good choice of cocktails. The bar staff were also very friendly.
Breakfast in the mornings were well stocked, but after three morning in a row of eating waffles you may feel a bit sick. There was plenty of bread, fruit, yogurts, cereal and muffins as well as jucies, tea and coffee.
The hotel was just a short walk to the nearest I-Ride stop and across the road from the Mercado.
There is a courtesy bus to Disney which we used one day. I would suggest if you are a nervous passenger to find a different way to Disney.
I would definately stay here again and recommend it to everyone.
La quinta august 2004
Party of 4 - 2 adults 42 and nearly 40, 2 kids 10 and 15
We went for 3 weeks in august, when we arrived they had no record of our booking which was the problem of the UK agent not theirs but they helped by booking us intemporarily till we sorted it
the room was small but clean, it overlooked the pool on the ground floor near the bar
the breakfast started with muffins and bagels but nealry every day something was missing from the breakfast buffet and the muffins(the only things my girls would eat) stopped altogether.
The location was great near enough to I-Drive to be useful to walk but far enough off it to avoid the traffic noise, but the I-4 was at the back so I don;t know if there was any road noise there
I woul defintely go back to this hotel
Great value for money, best on I-drive
We stayed at La Quinta for a week in July, and it was perfect as a base to visit the theme parks. It is situated 2 minutes away from the Sand Lake junction of I4 and also has a free shuttle service to Disney World. We had a double deluxe room which was pretty spacious, fresh and clean, and had a fridge and microwave. We asked for a pool view, which is the best location because if you have a room at the back of the hotel I can imagine the traffic noise from nearby I4 would be annoying. The girls on reception were friendly and helpful and the free breakfast was a nice bonus. It was booked via the internet and for 7 nights we paid 390 dollars!! That is unbelievable value. We left Orlando and stayed at the Ramada in St Augustine (disappointing) and then later at the Days Inn opposite Busch Gardens (BIG mistake) and both were more expensive and of lower standard.
Well done La Quinta, we will see you again.
We (2 couples) have returned home in July from a fortnight in this hotel and we would highly recommend it!!! The hotel is situated in the centre of intl drive within walking distance to plenty of restaurants, bars, shopping, buses e.t.c. It's ideal for someone not taking a car.. The transfers to Disney is very handy getting picked up at the hotel entrance. Everything about the hotel was kept very clean and tidy. The rooms were very spacious, well equiped and were cleaned daily (incl towels). The Staff were very friendly, pleasant and helpful. We couldn't of asked for a better hotel, we will definately be going back to stay here!!!!!!!!!!
Highly Recommended
We recently stayed in this hotel for 8 nights during the month of May 2004. Being a superb hotel with the convenient location in the International Drive, we highly recommend this hotel to anyone. Restaurants and shops are within walking distance from the hotel. The front desk staff are courteous and pleasant. The rooms are clean, and the house keeper are on top of everything. The free breakfast they offered are abundant and plentiful. The free shuttle to Disney is an added bonus in staying in this hotel.
Can recommend it
Have been in this la Quinta 1st week of March 2004As long as you have a room to the poolside, its really good. Its a bit like a resort.All other rooms are very loud because of near I-4.The rooms are clean and well equipped.The pool rather big and warm.Breakfast good.The location on middle of I-Drive very good.I extended stay from planned 1 night to 7 nights (but changed to a poolside room).Would go back anytime.Regards Frank
We'll be back
Checked in Jan 2004. Very clean hotel, obviously just renovated.
Excellent location. Pool area very clean,Staff very helpful especially Jen in bar. Will be back
Sorry I chose la quinta inn
Just spent seven nights (Nov.2,2002) at La Quinta Inn at Jamaican Court off International Drive. The location was great, easy walking distance to Macado Shopping Center which had free live bands nightly and loads of great restaurants within a ten minute walk but I'm sorry I chose the La Quinta Inn.
I had two rooms (105 and 107), the beds and pillows were terrible! Beds were sagging and you could feel the springs. The pillows were the flattest I have ever seen, both these items should have been thrown out years ago. I asked front desk if they could do some thing about the springs.....they put on an extra mattress pad. Not many channel choices on the TV and the pool was not heated so I didn't even use the pool. It only cost $40 a night to stay there but it still wasn't worth it. I could have stayed at the Quality Inn Plaza for $30 a night with a heated pool.
TripAdvisor Reviews La Quinta Inn Orlando International Drive
Travel Blogs from Orlando
Orlando Theme Park Tips for Families!
... is very limiting. We had some issues with the fast pass and we discovered whilst some staff could make bookings/changes across parks other staff were unable to do so. In one case the fast pass completely failed with half our family booked on one attraction and the other half on another yet we were supposed to all be booked on both. The Universal Fast Pass is far superior to Disney's pass especially if you are travelling ...
Pottering around the magical world of Universal
... the kid in you. I can't wait to take our children to Disney one day. I have such happy memories from when I went as a child. I can still remember when Becs and I were told we were going to Florida and Disney. Mum and Dad put on "America" from Westside Story (a fave of ours at the time) and we all danced around the living room. I'm hoping by the time we go with our children there will be a Frozen ride ...
Day 10 - Savannah to Orlando
... as the city was really only built because of Disneyworld and then lots more theme parks were built as well. Our hotel again, is too far from anything, except Disneyworld, so if you don't want to go there you're stuffed coz there is no transportation except taxis. Everyone on the bus said we should have stayed the night in St. Augustine as there was so much more to do and see.
Green Skin & Butter Beer
... it was ever intended to be, so we headed off to Jurrasic Park where we did the water ride and got very wet. after a few other rides we decided on Dudly Doorights Ripsaw Falls...... now as this is in an area that gives the impression of being a kids area we were lulled into the thought that this was a ride for the littlies, but we said we would all go on..... even when the lap bar came down and it was a fairly substantial "hold you in your seat" kind ...

Erica review of the day: Today we arrived in Florida and I was surprised that I wasn't air sick. When we got to the hotel and started to unpack I saw a notice in my suitcase that the security people had looked through my luggage, it was weird because I had a lock and I didn't know they could look through it. We went around and took pictures and the funniest pictures were on the hammock. Today was a ...

Historians, write Frances and Joseph Gies, have long tended to view the Middle Ages as a period of intellectual and scientific stagnation, a long era of backwardness, ignorance, and inertia. Many scholars of the Renaissance era, however, thought otherwise; the mathematician Jerome Cardan, for one, held that three medieval inventions--the magnetic compass, the printing press, and gunpowder--were of such significance that "the whole of antiquity has nothing equal to show."
In their lively history of medieval technology, the Gies team writes of such advances as the heavy plow, the Gothic flying buttress, linen undergarments, water pumps, and the lateen sail. During the medieval millennium, they suggest, a great technological and social revolution occurred "with the disappearance of mass slavery, the shift to water- and wind-power, the introduction of the open-field system of agriculture, and the importation, adaptation, or invention of an array of devices, from the wheelbarrow to double-entry bookkeeping." Many of those inventions or adaptations, brought into Europe from China and the Middle East, have scarcely been improved on today.
The medieval technological revolution, the authors conclude, came at a cost: much of Europe was deforested to make room for cropland and to fire kilns and furnaces, and mechanization made obsolete many handicraft skills. Yet, they add, the workers and inventors of the Middle Ages "all transformed the world, on balance very much to the world's advantage." --Gregory McNamee

I had a look at the EXIF info for your shot on Flickr and I noticed that it was taken at a shutter speed of 1/125. If you want to make the colours a bit richer without using a polarizer, you could try under-exposing the image by a little bit, so maybe just speed up your shutter speed in Shutter Priority mode until you get the colours that you're looking for.
Something else you could try with this sort of shot is shooting at a different time of day (sunrise, sunset, the "magic hour") to try to give it some more shadows or colours.
One final suggestion might be to try making a more interesting foreground to this type of picture. I noticed on your stream you had some very good landscape shots where the foreground had more interest to it such as your Yarra Valley shot or your Eucalyptus and Smoke Covered Hills shot. Because this shot has very little in the foreground, and it's nearly all green, it seems a little flat.
Hope some of that was helpfulNikon D600 | D90 | Sony NEX-3

Getting something in the foreground can really make the difference in wide open landscapes. When I take landscapes now its my number one task to find an interesting foreground subject to accentuate the beautiful backdrop like you have here.
I usually walk around with my camera off the tripod and go low first to start my looking.
I like the variety of colour greens in this photo. I would be tempted to crop out the sky altogether and to straighten the horizon. I find in landscapes that I search out the horizon very quickly so its important that everything is A ok in that area or interest in looking further can drop off.
I hope that some of this can be useful to you.SueB

Try taking the picture at a different time, or a different season, and watch out for nicer clouds that you can take advantage of, and yes, please try underexposing it, it helps in capturing richer colorsGod creates the moment, we simply capture it!
Thnx for the tips guys

It appears as if the mountain may benefit from more detail.
Its hard to tell. This could be because the same shot would benefit from being taken early AM or late afternoon where the lower angle of the sun would create some contast in the trees and warm up the scene. Also, the mountain may look a little sharper using a smaller aperature. The trees in the foregound are sharp wheras the hill looks a little out of focus. With landscapes I like to use the smallest aperature possible and shoot in the late afternoon.
