Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
The word history comes from the Greek word historía which means "to learn or know by inquiry." History is not static. It's fluid. It changes and grows and becomes richer and more complex when any individual interacts with it.
Knowledge of history is empowering. An event is but the furthest ripple of an ever-expanding wave that may have started eddying outward hundreds of years ago. One who "sees" history is able to harness the power of that wave's entire journey.
Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy. Biology is a vast subject containing many subdivisions, topics, and disciplines.
English is the body of rules that describe the structure of expressions in the English language. This includes the structure of words, phrases, clauses, and sentences.
Geography is the science that studies the lands, the features, the inhabitants, and the phenomena of the Earth. A literal translation would be "to describe or write about the Earth". The first person to use the word "geography" was Eratosthenes. Four historical traditions in geographical research are the spatial analysis of the natural and the human phenomena, the area studies, the study of the man-land relationship, and the research in the earth sciences. Nonetheless, the modern geography is an all-encompassing discipline that foremost seeks to understand the Earth and all of its human and natural complexities—-not merely where objects are, but how they have changed and come to be. Geography has been called "the world discipline" and "the bridge between the human and the physical science". Geography is divided into two main branches: the human geography and the physical geography.
Geology is the science comprising the study of solid Earth, the rocks of which it is composed, and the processes by which it evolves. Geology gives insight into the history of the Earth, as it provides the primary evidence for plate tectonics, the evolutionary history of life, and past climates. In modern times, geology is commercially important for mineral and hydrocarbon exploration and for evaluating water resources; it is publicly important for the prediction and understanding of natural hazards, the remediation of environmental problems, and for providing insights into past climate change; it plays a role in geotechnical engineering; and it is a major academic discipline.
Grammar is the set of structural rules that govern the composition of clauses, phrases, and words in any given natural language. The term refers also to the study of such rules, and this field includes morphology, syntax, and phonology, often complemented by phonetics, semantics, and pragmatics. Linguists do not normally use the term to refer to orthographical rules, although usage books and style guides that call themselves grammars may also refer to spelling and punctuation.
I have taken beginners, intermediate and advanced photography classes. I am proficient with both 35 mm and digital cameras.
Proofreading is the reading of a galley proof or computer monitor to detect and correct production-errors of text or art. Proofreaders are expected to be consistently accurate by default because they occupy the last stage of typographic production before publication.
Reading comprehension is defined as the level of understanding of a text/message. This understanding comes from the interaction between the words that are written and how they trigger knowledge outside the text/message

Cranmore Cottages website is always our first stop when we are planning our anniversary trip to Hendersonville, NC. (Each year we try a different cottage.) Sandra and company are always just the best! She stopped by our first night to bring us a hot spot, as someone had changed the password on the wifi and didn't notify them. She was there under 3 minutes! The Grey Oak Cottage was quaint and just perfect for us. We had stopped for lunch and grocery shopped at EarthFare/Asheville. We prepared breakfast and dinner at the house most every day. The kitchen had the important amentities - microwave, stove, refrigerator and coffee maker! Loved the simple decorations. The cottage is in the most perfect location - it is in a quiet neighborhood - and within 5 minutes from downtown Hendersonville. Also you are within 2 hours of the Blue Ridge Parkway - the leaves were beautiful. Jump off Rock is also another great location to visit and is only 10 minutes away. We love staying at the... more

Miss Wooltorton, 26, who was suffering depression over her inability to have a child, drank poison at home and called an ambulance. However, she remained conscious and handed doctors a letter saying she wanted medical staff only to make her comfortable and not to try to save her life.
Doctors said her wishes were "abundantly clear" and although it was a "horrible thing" there had been no alternative but to let her die.
They feared they would be charged with assault if they treated her because they believed she understood what she was doing and was mentally capable of refusing treatment.
It is thought to be the first time someone has used a living will to commit suicide. The documents are more commonly associated with patients who are terminally ill and want to refuse treatment.
Miss Wooltorton's family have since criticised the doctors, saying they should have intervened to save her.
The case will revive the "right to die" debate days after new guidelines on assisted suicide were published, saying those who help terminally ill patients to die are unlikely to face prosecution unless they stand to gain financially.
So-called living wills – or advance directives – allow patients to set out what treatment they do not want should they become seriously ill. They were introduced following the 2005 Mental Capacity Act.
The General Medical Council has told doctors that failure to comply with the directives could lead to them being struck off.
Experts said that before the new laws came in, doctors faced with a similar case to Miss Wooltorton's would have been likely to insist the patient be treated.
Doctors debating the case online said her history of mental illness could cast doubt on her ability to refuse treatment. Some argued it was not uncommon for people who attempt suicide to refuse treatment, only to change their minds later.
Campaigners gave warning that living wills were not designed for patients who wanted to commit suicide and questioned whether someone who had repeatedly tried to kill themselves had the capacity to refuse treatment.
The inquest into Miss Wooltorton's death heard that she had drunk the poison up to nine times in the year before her death and each time doctors had flushed the toxins from her system.
She drew up her directive on Sept 15, 2007, stating in the document that she was "100 per cent aware of the consequences" of her actions and did not want to be treated.
Three days later she called an ambulance after drinking the poison at her flat in Norwich.
She was taken to the accident and emergency department of Norfolk and Norwich Hospital and handed over her letter and also made her wishes clear verbally, the inquest was told.
The letter said that if she called for an ambulance it was not a plea for treatment, but because she did not want to die alone and in pain. She lapsed into unconsciousness and died in hospital the next day. William Armstrong, the Norfolk coroner, recorded a narrative verdict that did not blame the hospital for her death. He stated: "She had capacity to consent to treatment which, it is more likely than not, would have prevented her death. She refused such treatment in full knowledge of the consequences and died as a result."
But asked about the consequences had he intervened, Dr Alexander Heaton, the hospital's consultant renal physician, said: "I would've been breaking the law and I wasn't worried about her suing me, but I think she would have asked, 'What do I have to do to tell you what my wishes

Mounting Option #1
Mounting Option #2
Bring your artwork to life with the stylish lines and added depth of an acrylic print. Your image gets printed directly onto the back of a 1/4" thick sheet of clear acrylic.
The image is the art - it doesn't get any cleaner than that!
All acrylic prints ship within 3 - 4 business days and arrive "ready to hang" with four aluminum mounting posts (Option #1) or hanging wire (Option #2).
The high gloss of the acrylic sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.
There are two different ways to mount your acrylic print.
Option #1 (Mounting Posts) - Attach your print to your wall with four aluminum mounting posts. The cylindrical cap of each mounting post can be removed, allowing you to thread a small screw along the center axis of the of post and into the wall. When you're finished, simply reattached each cap, and you're done. The mounting posts act as stand-offs and keep your print separated from the wall by 1". All of the required mounting hardware (i.e. posts, screws, and wall anchors) is included with your print. Click here for mounting details.
Option #2 (Hanging Wire) - With this option, your acrylic print is attached to a 1/4" thick black board which has a wooden frame and hanging wire attached to the back. There are no metal mounting posts at the corners. Simply put a nail in your wall, hang your print from the hanging wire, and you're done. Due to the thickness of the black board and mounting frame, your print is separated from the wall by 1.50" Click here for mounting details.

It's the first day of the offseason and I cant wait to see what Walt does with the Reds. Until then how about this for an idea to pass the time..
Everyone knows the Reds biggest weakness is their lack of getting on-base. So here are two impact players I feel that would make a difference, Milton Bradley and Bobby Abreu.
I didn't hear much last year of Milton Bradley's attitude in Texas, but is he still considered a cancer in the clubhouse? He destroyed the ball last season and proved he could get on base at a high percentage over the years. The downfall is that he has yet to put together a full season over the years. He made 5.25 million last season, how much would he command this year? Bobby Abreu is exactly the type of bat the Reds need, not only that but he would an asset in the clubhouse, he made 16 million last season, but couldnt possibly get that much again could he? Add in Orlando Hudson to play second and the Reds could have something like this
2B. Orlando Hudson (S)
RF. Bobby Abreu (L)
LF. Milton Bradley (S)
1B. Joey Votto (L)
3B. Edwin Encarnacion (R)
CF. Jay Bruce (L)
SS. Brandon Phillips (R)
C. Ryan Hanigan (R)
Milton Bradley 2 years 8 million/per
Bobby Abreu 3 years 12 million/per
Orlando Hudson 3 year 7.5 million/per
Cant wait to hear everyones input, would you rather have Raul Ibanez over Abreu or Bradley? How would you work him into the lineup?

I want to extract an area given by x-y coordinates from a pdf page. The extracted area may be stored as a page in a new pdf document. This needs to be done several times and so I would want the process to be scripted. Are there any tools / libraries that can help do this?
If iText (for Java) or iText(Sharp) (for .Net) are acceptable libraries for you, you can use them to import an existing page from some PDF as a template of which sections can be displayed in another PDF.
Have a look at the example TilingHero.java / TilingHero.cs from chapter 6 of iText in Action — 2nd Edition. The central code is:
As you see, the original page is imported once and different sections of it are displayed on different pages.
(iText and iTextSharp are available either for free --- subject to the AGPL --- or commercially)
This can then be easily scripted.
You may use 'pdftoppm' to do this task:
For exaple, crop the area of the first PDF page from point (x,y) = (100,200), which is the upper left corner of your crop area, with a width of 50 and a height of 80 and save it to a JPEG file is done by using:
If you get in trouble with your documents resolution, you can use the '-r' option of 'pdftoppm' (see the man page of 'pdftoppm' for more).
Certainly, you can easily convert the JPEG file into a PDF, if needed.

It was in fact a driver/software problem that both Sony and Nvidia had to work together for a fix on. Which mind you they did eventually fix. As I have pointed out numerous times. You can take a Geforce 6/7 into this game now and not have any of the early problems that were experienced by users. After Nvidia confirmed that the game was not being slowed down due to any SM 3.0 implementation. I decided to investigate myself and dump the code for it. I did not make any of this up based on my "personal" opinion. My part of being an Nvidia user Group member is to collect data, Work with Nvidia on hot topics, Driver issues, and test new hardware before it becomes available to the press. So I have a pretty good understanding of the issues I am talking about.
I would love to post my e-mail correspondant with Nvidia on this issue. I cant however since I am restricted by NDA regarding most of my e-mail conversations with Nvidia due to the issues of driver patents and other various NDA issues. Am I pissy about this? Yes. Paticularly because you've taken the time to spit on something that I put alot of time and effort into back when it was relevant to alot of people. Needless to say. I'm done arguing with you. I've already lost my patience. This is not worth losing my temper over. Hence I'm done.
CHRIS, jeezus man, I NEVER ONCE CLAIMED the performance issues had ANYTHING to do with SM3.0. The fact that the game ran a bit slower on nvidia hardware at the time was at least partially related to the fact that nvidia's 6800
nearly always
executed shaders a bit slower compared to X800/x850 (not in all cases slower/clock but after taking clock speed into account, nearly always slower). That's why SM3.0 was such a big deal for nvidia at the time. Well that and HDR. Nvidia had no problems with its SM3.0 implementation. It was actually a big selling point in the cases it was exposed (SC:CS was a great example). That made me want one more than anything else. ATI's solution always felt like it was just "getting by" with FP24 pixel shaders, despite the fact that it was often much faster.
Fine, so you're telling me that nvidia spent a bunch of time optimizing its hardware to run the game well? Great, I guess I'll take your word on it. Its what the company was doing from Nv30 up until G71. So it just had less to fix during Geforce 6 days because the 6 series was a significantly better engineered part. I'm not sure if NV40 did any shader replacement, but I'm certain that I could dig that up. Ok, why are you telling me this?
Are we clear buddy?

Yamaha forks on a BMW F650GS Dakar

KOTW is a myth!

Oddometer: 7,274

I am interested in how the bike handled with those spring rates.
RaceTech's site says the Dakar's stock rate is in the .62 range but I cant get that verified. RaceTech recommend a .83 rate on the Dakar with my street weight of 160 lbs. So the .48 springs are about half of what they recommended.
While most of us will be riding on a lot less aggressive terrain on the 650 than we would on a YZ, we are still doubling the weight of the bike (low 200lbs to low 400lbs) that is riding on the same springs.
Did you use the stock or supermoto aftermarket brake/rotor?
The BMW OEM brakes are 300mm X 5mm thick disk and the YZ OEM disk is 250mm X 3mm thick. The YZ caliper pistons are about 20/22mm and the BMW pistons are 30/32mm but I am not sure about the differences in the master cyl. I think we would be giving up significant stopping power especially when repeatedly stopping from highway speeds like in the twisties. That may not be in issue at lower speeds in the dirt.
And what kind of Beer would be good to know too...
I think I will end up at about $900 bucks in my forks but far shy of the TT $3,000 set up. When I am done, we will loose 1" travel/length to cut down on the "chopper" setup, have progressive wound - .83ish springs in front, new seals wipers and valving, stock brakes, stock wheel, new caliper hanger, new brake line and new SS axle. I may get the stock rim upgraded to make it stronger too.
The back shock is getting re-worked as we speak. Spring rate will be up about 20% and progressive wound for compliance on the street. It will also raise the rear-end a bit. This and slipping the forks deeper in the triples will help get the geometry back in check.
Overall, I will drop less than a $1,100 into the bikes suspension and I hope I am as happy with it as you are with yours.
I blame my buddy Quinn for all of this excessive spending. He bought a new 800GS last month. I didnt want to drop the cash on a new bike but I just couldnt sit still for that. So I had to upgrade
I'm doing a 300+ mile ride tomorrow to break it in. I still want the BMW brake setup. So don't count me out. I think .83 is way too aggressive. I took mine for a pretty fast and rutty ride today. I have the .48's and had to take 6 clicks off the preload. It was borderline too stiff. I used the stock yz front brake set up and it's pretty good. I ride mostly dirt so I don't use alot of front anyways.
I'll get some pics and give a ride report tomorrow. Riding out through the local mountains to the high desert (Randsburg, El PAso Mountains, and back) 78 miles street, the balance dirt.

Stubborn All-Stars
|Stubborn All-Stars
|New York City, New York, United States
|Years active
Stubborn All-Stars are a New York City ska band led by King Django, front man of Skinnerbox and owner of Stubborn Records.
By early 1994, Django's original ska roots began to tug at him, and he assembled Stubborn All-Stars for a studio session which resulted in the 4-song Old's Cool 7" EP. Choosing musicians very carefully from the large pool of New York ska bands such as Skinnerbox, The Insteps, The Slackers, The Scofflaws, and Agent 99, for their familiarity with and ability to play traditional Jamaican ska. Django hit upon the sound he was looking for: ska in a very traditional Jamaican style, reconnected with its own roots in American Rhythm & Blues.
They released their debut Open Season in September 1995, featuring guest appearances by Roland Alphonso of the Skatalites, Chris Dowd (ex-Fishbone), and Robert "Bucket" Hingley of the Toasters.
Their second album, Back With a New Batch, was released in 1997. The video for the single Pick Yourself Up went into heavy rotation on MTV, and Alternative Press reviewed it as "the best reggae album of 1997".
Their third album, Nex Music, was released in 1999.
The band also collaborated with famous punk band Rancid on the song 'I Wanna Riot' for the Beavis and Butt-Head Do America soundtrack.

100 Questions To Ask Your Boyfriend
Even if you think you know him well, this is the reality: your boyfriend equals mystery. There is so much that you actually do not now about him that the questions to ask are a lot, specific and possibly intimate. You'll be surprised.
The fact is that not every boyfriend will be willing answer your questions for the reason being that they might be hard to confess. Sometimes, it is hard speak about the past of anything that could interfere with the present relationship and make it change in the future.
A few good examples of questions to ask your boyfriend might be:
Who are your ex girlfriends, (if any) and what made the relationship end as it did?
What have you learned form life that makes you who you are today?
What are your plans (goals) for the future?
Questioning about his personal life experiences (both public and private) are what going to reveal an important part of who your boyfriend actually is.
When it comes to more serious and delicate questioning, you might want to ask about his best kept secrets. These deep questions usually have to do with his more intimate side and they are more likely to be considered the "hard questions".
This is the side that not everybody would like to speak about because they have to do more with the truth, and sometimes, the truth hurts. He wouldn't be keeping secrets just for the fun of it.
The answers to these types of questions (get to know you questions) can really help you see how your boyfriend has changed over the years (who was he back then, who is he now, and how he might be in the future).
Any other interesting questions to ask your boyfriend will depend on many other things such as: the relationship itself, the personal interest of each, etc, and these questions can vary from being romantic, to silly or just to simply ask.
The 100 questions to ask your boyfriend might influence other positive or negative factors that can possibly change the relationship for better or worse depending on the reaction of you and your boyfriend to the answers of those questions.
If true love and understanding exist with in the relationship, it is more likely to accept all of the positive and negative responses that you might react to.
If love and understanding does not exist, then there is a higher chance for the relationship to have future problems and conflicts.
For more "love questions to ask your boyfriend", feel free to get your copy of the 100 Questions Before Marriage sample eBook or you can get Michael Webb's famous eBook 1000 Questions For Couples.
You and your boyfriend will have a lot of questions to discuss, and a lot to think about. Even though the answers to questions come with time, it is good to have a head start. Don't forget to leave your comments.

Low oil pressure after new oil pump o-ring install!? P R O J E C T - "S"
Any seasoned BMW owners out there have any ideas as to what I did wrong when installing a new o-ring on the oil pump cover that resulted in low oil pressure?
Read all about my delema here (starting on page 32 #469 continued on page 33) > http://www.advrider.com/forums/showt...684054&page=32
Years ago I asked my dealer for a new oil pump cover o-ring and they gave me one that was too thick... perhaps it was the flywheel o-ring.
Anyway that chowed the big-end bearings on big ends of the R60/5 that I had just done a complete top end on.....
The problem does not have to be the O-ring. But to begin with that since it was something you last touched, are you sure it was the oil pump O-ring you installed? The is another O-ring that is very close. I think it's the cylinder base O-ring but it might be the flywheel spacer O-ring. One of them is sometimes mistaken for the oil pump O-ring.
I don't think you should start there. How about the oil pressure regulating valve, This is part of the front bearing holder that is under the timing chain crank sprocket. A broken spring in this will cause oil pressure problems. You have to remove the timing cover to look at it. They do go bad.
There is also a bypass valve in the oil filter canister area. It is at the back of where the filter is. Remove filter and look at the back, you should see a ball check valve. Is the ball in place? Can you push it in a tiny amount with a skinny screwdriver and it pops back out into place?
Yes, the flywheel o-ring is very close and easy to mix-up. I installed the wrong one this past winter and luckily could tell it wasn't right when I was tightening the screws--too mushy!. MAX sent the two o-rings in one baggie with no markings and I chose incorrectly.
If this is your problem, there would be extra side clearance on the pump rotor and low pressure.
we may be onto something here...
I did notice that once the cover had contacted the o-ring the bolts took several complete turns, and felt "mushy" to me. I thought :confused I had very carefully selected the correct of the two o-rings, but I too had them both in the same bag with no markings.
Trying to find the oil pump cover o-ring specs:
11 22 1 337 099 - 59X3MM fly wheel
11 41 1 335 895 - ??X?MM oil pump cover
:hmmmmmI'll add this to my list of theories, but I'm almost sure this is going to be my problem. I just hope I did no damage the engine by riding it when I should not have :baldy
I'm sure I've seen that measurement and thought I may have it somewhere but after an hour of looking I can't find the info. It's probably buried on Snowbunm's site. :lol3
Take her apart and start over...
With the help of my internet friends, thank you, I have determined that I SCREWED UP.
Yes, it's true, I made a mistake and I now have low oil pressure as a result.
I'm now convinced that I reversed the flywheel o-ring and the oil pump cover o-ring (thanks Nick for the pic).
So, take her apart and start over...
Need the following parts... AGAIN.
11 41 1 335 895 O-RING, oil pump x1
11 22 1 337 099 GASKET RING (from 09/78), flywheel inner o-ring x1
I believe I got these two reversed and installed the flywheel o-ring
(larger of the two, I think) on the oil pump cover as I now have a
low oil pressure condition which I did not have before repair.
21 21 1 231 463 FILLISTER-HEAD SCREW (to 09/80), clutch plate bolts x6
11 22 1 262 060 HEX BOLT - M11X1,5, flywheel bolts x5
07 11 9 913 464 HEX BOLT - M6X16 (to 09/80), oil pump cover bolts x4
07 11 9 963 130 GASKET RING - A12X15,5 AL, drive shaft oil drain/fill x2
26 11 1 242 297 SCREW - M8X1, drive shaft bolts x4
These short bolts 26111242297 fit 1981-1995 Airheads; do not use washers.
Some people like to use the short bolts on pre-1981 models also (without washers.
11 13 1 338 427 oil pan gasket x1
07 11 9 963 300 GASKET RING - A18X22 oil drain washer x1
11 00 9 056 145 SET: REPAIR KIT FOR OIL CHANGE oil filter kit x1
Fingers crossed that you had sufficient oil pressure, I'm betting you did.
A Betting Man I am I am
I'll take that bet, and I'm crossing my toes too :wink:
With the low suggested torque value of the oil pump cover bolts the thicker "wrong" o-ring won't compress enough leaving you with too much clearance in the oil pump and low HOT oil pressure. Not optimum, but over the short time that you ran it, there was probably little or no damage. You caught the problem early, good for you. BUT if anything was damaged, it would have been a rod bearing, which is easy to check and inexpensive to replace. As a quick check, remove the oil filter, cut it apart, unroll it and read it-- shiny and/or coppery flakes are un-good.
I tried really, really hard to ride my R60/5 home about three miles with no/little oil pressure after I had been sold the wrong, thicker o-ring for the pump cover and was able to very lightly polish the crank, put in new bearings and had no issues.
Make sure to buy (and use) some plastigauge if you suspect or change the rod bearings.
quick check for rod bearing damage
Thanks Bill. checking the oil filter for flakes is definatly on the agenda, will report back. I figured the rod bearing would be the first to suffer, we'll see... fingers and toes crossed.
One More Time
Here we go again. This time I'll get it right.
you know what the good german frau says.....
ubung mach den meister
Six Hours, my punishment... D'Oh!
Six hours start to finish to correct my o-ring error. :baldy
Oil light now turns off while cranking, before she fires. :clap:clap:clap
No engine knock! :freaky
Will put oil pressure gauge tool on her in the morning and record the readings. :ear

A startup in California, with the rather odd name of Qnovo, says it has developed a new way of rapidly recharging conventional lithium-ion batteries. With Qnovo's technology, you can get six hours of phone life from just 15 minutes of charging — compared to just 1-2 hours from conventional charging. The secret, according to Qnovo, is that no two batteries are identical — and knowing exactly how much power you can pump into the battery without damaging it can significantly improve recharge times.

IBM discovers new class of ultra-tough, self-healing, recyclable plastics that could redefine almost every industry May 16, 2014 at 12:18 pm
Stop the press! IBM Research announced this morning that it has discovered a whole new class of… plastics. This might not sound quite as sexy as, say, MIT discovering a whole new state of matter — but wait until you hear what these new plastics can do. This new class of plastics — or more accurately, polymers — are stronger than bone, have the ability to self-heal, are light-weight, and are 100% recyclable. The number of potential uses, spanning industries as disparate as aerospace and semiconductors, is dizzying. A new class of polymers hasn't been discovered in over 20 years — and, in a rather novel twist, they weren't discovered by chemists: they were discovered by IBM's supercomputers.

Originally written on Fox Sports Arizona | Last updated 7/22/13
PHOENIX -- When the Diamondbacks parted for the All-Star break, one of their stated goals was determining a bullpen configuration. They came out of it with Brad Ziegler as the closer. Ziegler was given the D-backs' only save opportunity in the first four games following the break, and he converted it while giving up an unearned run in the ninth inning of a 3-1 victory over the Giants on Sunday. "Kind of make my decision as it goes on within the game," manager Kirk Gibson said of identifying his closer, "although I did tell 'Ziggy' the other day I was thinking he would be that guy. That's kind of where I am right now. "But if we're in the eighth inning and we've got two outs or one out and the bases are loaded, who is the best player on our team for that situation? It's Brad Ziegler. Bring him in and hope he gets the double-play ball, and maybe he goes out and throws the ninth." The D-backs have 19 failed save conversions, tied with the Cubs for the most in the majors, and Gibso...

Cut loose with me
Hello my name is Chad. I'll start off by saying that I can sometimes be reserved but quickly loosen up once the initial introductions are out of the way. I was born and raised in a small town of western Wisconsin, just thirty minutes outside of Minneapolis. I'm the youngest of four and spent much of my adolescence downhill skiing, playing tennis, riding atv's, and listening to 80's rock.. After high school I traveled west for college before returning back to the Midwest. The question that I hear most often is "Why did you move to Austin?". Well... I had visited here while taking my first southern road trip (2012) and really enjoyed the sights, nightlife and friendliness of everyone that I'd met so I decided that I must come back again to move here. I decided that I wasn't going to suffer through another brutal MN winter. Sure the heat can be a trade off, but I would say that all of the great attributes in this city easily out weigh the sweating and expensive a/c bill. I would like to explore this city with someone fun and interesting. Likes: Sarcasm, great food, good manners, stand-up comedy, mutual respect, beautiful scenery, modesty, sleep, sharing, spontaneity, helping others, and the list goes on... Sucks: Fedoras, poor hygiene, rudeness, liars, bad drivers, pit bulls, big egos, nagging, hard drug users. Ideal attributes: Someone that can make me laugh, a good conversationalist, drama free, kind/generous, and honesty. Those who are prejudice, racist or have a discriminatory mindset need not inquire. One of my personal quirks is that I've sometimes been known as a bit of a clean freak (I blame it on my upbringing) but I'm pretty forgiving of most slobs;-) Please reach out if you would like to share something interesting about yourself or would just like to know more.

I do like Perla's, Jackalope, Firehouse Lounge, Redeye Fly, Easy Tiger, 24 Diner, or maybe just a good hole in the wall bar/greasy spoon. Living on S. Lamar also provides all sorts of strange places to explore.

I like to workout a few days a week but otherwise I'm pretty much up for really any activity including, but not limited to, food/drink, a movie, sporting events, hiking, bowling, live music, or possibly just a relaxing scenic drive.
I mainly read online news, blogs, forums, and articles plus I enjoy viewing informative Youtube stuff. When I do pick up a book it's typically something educational or along the lines of self improvement.

- " This hostel was pretty good, it had good facilities for the kitchen. You were able to cook a decent meal with the utensils and pans that were available. The wifi was okay, and they had computer with internet access when the wifi was down. They have lockers in the room for security of your stuff. Also when you checkout you can keep your stuff in a locker until 5 pm by paying 2 euros. The room also had air conditioner which is a very good thing in the summer. It's also 5 mins fr the Termini. "
- 26 Jun 2015 Anonymous USA
- " The hostile was okay on the cleanliness scale given the price; however, the service was terrible. First, their change machine did not work. When I put a €10 in the machine it only gave me €5 in change and the desk people did not refund me for the mistake. Second, I used their lockers where you must pay €2 for 12 hours of storage and the machine locked on me only after 9 hours where I had to pay an extra €2 to open it. The worker behind the desk also did little to help me with the situation. "
- 27 Mar 2015 Anonymous USA
- " The hostel was very clean and had plenty of space in the rooms. Cleaning started very early in the day (much earlier than stated) so you had to be up and out. The WiFi wouldn't stay connected, you kept having to recconect. Overall a good experience. "

Around the hostel you can find shops, bars, cafes and everything you need. The rooms are very large and comfortable and you have large common areas. The hostel also offers free sangria, chips etc in the evening, which makes it easy to get to know people here. I highly recommend staying here. "
