Opportunities for many activities are in abundance right on our doorstep such as hillwalking, rambling, cycling, surf and rock fishing, surfing, sea kayaking, horse riding etc. most of which we have first hand experience of.
The local town of Louisburgh is host to some great pubs, cafes and restaurants, together with a supermarket, library ( with internet access ) and the Granuaile Heritage Centre.

We are on the route of the Wild Atlantic Way and are just 10km's from Silver Strand, one of the 'Discovery Points' of this spectacular drive.

Must have fun!

Alex & Therese were great hosts! Everything was perfect...location, breakfast (the best we've had so far on our journey!) The boutique was excellent! Lovely furniture and very cosy! Book this B & B, you will love it!
Beaucoup de chaleur, et de gentillesse.
Alex et Teresa sont charmant, ils excellent dans " l'art de recevoir".
Il devrait ouvrir une école hôtelière, ils ont ça dans le sang, encore merci à eux. L'annonce correspondait entièrement à ce que nous avons trouvé.
We loved it! The hosts and the house were both amazing -- in our two week trip to Ireland, this was the only B&B we stayed at where the rooms were actually nicer than the pictures :) Breakfast was delicious, and their homemade bread was superb. They let their dog, Scamper, keep us company while we ate (we love having pets around) and he was absolutely adorable. We were only there for one night, but Alex and his wife gave us great tips for what to do in the area. We went on an amazing walk at a nearby beach per their recommendation that definitely made the trip to Louisburgh worth it.
We'll definitely stay here again if we can the next time we visit the area.
Le B&B de rêve ! Le meilleur de notre séjour en Irlande !
Alex et sa femme ont été très accueillants et sont des personnes pétillantes et dynamiques ! Leur B&B est parfait : salon, chambre, et salle de bain privés, décorés avec goût et super cosy ! Quelle joie que de déposer nos affaires après une longue journée harassante devant la cheminée, que de s'affaler dans le canapé, une tasse de thé à la main, tout en écoutant de la musique mise à notre disposition avec une chaîne stéréo, puis de s'allonger dans un lit moelleux ! Et ce n'est pas fini : au matin, à l'heure désirée, un petit déjeuner complet avec optionnellement de délicieux pancakes faits maison !
Venture Killeen vaut vraiment le détour : le paysage est vraiment magnifique (surtout au coucher du soleil), et le voyage n'en devient alors que féérique.
Alex and Therese and their family, have a wonderful home. They are excellent hosts and made us feel very welcome during our two night stay. The accommodation is part of an old cottage and was very cosy and full of character and Alex kindly prepared the fire each evening. The breakfast was delicious and abundant and the surrounding scenery stunning. I would highly recommend a stay in Venture Killeen.
I really enjoyed my stay in this B&B. The place is amazing and the hosts very friendly. The two rooms are cozy and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. If you are in the area don't look further more, you won't go wrong with this place.
Stop searching and book this place! I could not imagine a better Irish experience and I owe so much to Venture Killeen! Alex & his family made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. It's comfy & cozy, has everything you could need or want, is a beautiful walk to the beach with horses, sheep & cows all around. From this home base I easily went to the Aran Islands, hiked the Reek, explored Westport & Galway, experienced the Cliffs of Moher & so much more! Breakfast was always more than I could even eat (best scrambled eggs ever!) and a glass of wine with the whole family one night was an absolute pleasure! I meant it when I told these folks that one day I hope to be their neighbor, that's how much I loved it!
About the Host, Alex
Hi, I'm Alex,
And together with my wife, Therese, run our boutique style B&B, Venture Killeen.
We visited this area in 2001 and marvelled at it's beauty and relaxed atmosphere to such an extent that we never actually went home!
We have two young children ( 11 & 12 yrs ) and a very friendly Jack Russell. Also a garden of about an acre into which we try to encourage as much wildlife as possible.
We will look forward to welcoming you into our home and introduce you to many, many more delights that surround us here at Venture Killeen.

Led by the NBA's highest-scoring duo, the Oklahoma City Thunder look just fine despite trading the reigning Sixth Man of the Year. They'll try for their seventh win in eight games Friday night as they host the Utah Jazz, who look to continue their improvement on the road. The Thunder (12-4) cruised to their third straight victory Wednesday, defeating former teammate James Harden and Houston 120-98. Harden was held to 17 points on 3-of-16 shooting while Kevin Durant scored a season-high 37 points for the second time in three games. Kevin Martin, who came over from the Rockets in the Harden trade, also scored 17. "We've moved on past it, man," Durant said. "We're happy to see (Harden), glad he's doing well out there in Houston but we wanted this win bad. "For all those days in practice where him, Daequan (Cook) and Eric Maynor beat the first group, I wanted this win real bad." Durant's 26.6 points per game and Westbrook's 20.7 make them the league's highest-scoring teammates agai...

How would I use breeze against an odata service using only the server's metadata to define the model? Will the context still be able to handle crud operations to a non web api service?
I have seen
// service name is route to the Web API controller var serviceName = 'api/CarBones'; /*** dataservice proper ***/ // manager (aka context) is the service gateway and cache holder var manager = new entityModel.EntityManager(serviceName);
Can I do something like replacing the serviceName with an oData uri and then continue using breeze as usual?
var serviceName = "http://localhost:1234/Northwind.svc"
Thanks for your help!
This question was posted by jpirok on our IdeaBlade forums. I am reposting the question and answer here since I think it will be useful to the Breeze Stack Overflow community.

The Latin Emperor was the ruler of the Latin Empire, the historiographical convention for the Crusader realm, established in Constantinople after the Fourth Crusade (1204) and lasting until the city was recovered by the Byzantine Greeks in 1261. Its name derives from its Catholic and Western European ("Latin") nature. The empire, whose official name was Imperium Romaniae (Latin: "Empire of Romania"), claimed the direct heritage of the Eastern Roman Empire, which had most of its lands taken and partitioned by the crusaders. This claim however was disputed by the Byzantine Greek successor states, the Empire of Nicaea, the Empire of Trebizond and the Despotate of Epirus. Out of these three, the Nicaeans succeeded in displacing the Latin emperors in 1261 and restored the Byzantine Empire.

hi there is another concept i want to try and that is a figure probably a woman is sitting in a chair looking at a score of a flute or some music instrement and trying to come up with a composition while in the background there is a ghost like figure coming out of our little composer playing a flute and on the floor there is going to be pieces of paper crumbled up
basically the concept is of a newborn composition or music what ever you choose
i think i'll come up with a color composition later today or tonight
July 19th, 2009 #10
here's another couple of ideas i had in mind
the first is one is a marine world
and the other is a shark in his mother womb
the thing is I remembered that once in biology class the teacher talked about different animals and their pregnancy and such and an intresting fact about the sand tiger shark if I'm not mistaken is that when the baby finished all his food suply he start eating the eggs that the mother keep producing by using his teeth killing teeth that is so i decided to take this concept and do some sort of shark in the same situation
July 31st, 2009 #11
heres the final for the image of the shark one
had a few changes to it

Spark plasma sintering
Spark plasma sintering (SPS), also known as field assisted sintering technique (FAST)[1] or pulsed electric current sintering (PECS), is a sintering technique.
The main characteristic of SPS is that the pulsed DC current directly passes through the graphite die, as well as the powder compact, in case of conductive samples. Joule heating has been found to play a dominant role in the densification of powder compacts, which results in achieving near theoretical density at lower sintering temperature compared to conventional sintering techniques.[2] The heat generation is internal, in contrast to the conventional hot pressing, where the heat is provided by external heating elements. This facilitates a very high heating or cooling rate (up to 1000 K/min), hence the sintering process generally is very fast (within a few minutes). The general speed of the process ensures it has the potential of densifying powders with nanosize or nanostructure while avoiding coarsening which accompanies standard densification routes. This has made SPS a good method for preparation of ceramics based on nanoparticles with enhanced piezoelectric,[3] thermoelectric,[4] optical [5] or biomedical [6] properties. SPS is also used for sintering of Carbon Nanotubes [7] for development of field electron emission electrodes. While the term "spark plasma sintering" is commonly used, the term is misleading since neither a spark nor a plasma is present in the process.[8] It has been experimentally verified that densification is facilitated by the use of a current.
Hybrid heating[edit]
By means of a combination of the FAST/SPS method with one or several additional heating systems acting from the outside of the pressing tool systems it's possible to minimize the thermal gradients thus allowing the enhancement of the heating rates at simultaneously optimized homogeneity.[9]
In 2012 the world's largest hybrid SPS-Hot Press sintering system was set up in Spain[10] and the fabrication of fully dense large ceramic blanks of up to 400mm with this system is in progress within the frame of the FP7 European Project HYMACER -HYbrid sintering and advanced Machining of technical CERamics

This is my first experiment with Carrara 8.5 Pro's surface replicator. The surface replicator uses 2 genesis figures with a walking nonlinear animation clip attached to a terrain object. Then I applied a Distance fog atmosphere.
Is there a way to get the figures to follow the contour of the terrain using the Carrara 8.5 Pro's surface replicator?

I got a few sample of this to try it out. My skin is combi-oily-acne prone- sensitive-dry!
I was going through a dry- sensitive phase so I asked for this cleanser. The smell is nice. It does clean well but it dried my skin more.
Great overall but not for me.

I used this product for many years and I loved it, it smells lovely and made my skin feel like a baby's butt. The b and tea toner is perfect to follow this cleanser as the combination is great at eliminating oil. I only changed products because my skin became less oily as I moved from my teens to my 20's and this product is a little drying.

My skin typically prefers milk or cream cleansers. Most gel-based face washes are too drying. This one by Aesop is surprisingly gentle even though it foams a little bit. It has an olive oil base and contains extracts of bergamot, rosemary and chamomile. I like it best as a morning face wash. It doesn't remove makeup as thoroughly as I would like, so if I use it in the evenings I always follow it with a toner to pick up any leftover residue. I probably won't repurchase this regularly as it's pricey, but I'd definitely have it in rotation within my skincare regimen.

Bought this cleanser from an online retailer after using their parsley seed oil cleanser and LOVING it, so thought I would try this next. I have combination oily/dehydrated skin and after using this cleanser for a few days I noticed my whole face becoming flaky and tight. Now starting to break out on my forehead and chin (I rarely break have issues with pimples).
I've stopped using the cleanser and will go back to my medik8 gentle foaming cleanser which I find works amazingly with my skin.

I did like this, but the problem I had with it was that it didn't remove makeup. I don't wear very much so I deemed this product kind of pointless if it can't even get rid of that.

I loved this cleanser. It's perfect in every way. The scent is refreshing but yet over powering nor too strong. The texture is in gel form in low foaming format. Little amount is enough to cleanse no make up day while a little more is required to remove make up.
I've found many gel cleanser dry up skin with tightness feeling. This cleanser has the right balance to leave your face nice, fresh and clean without the dryness / tightness.
Also, I have sensitive skin and usually if I massaged the cleanser too long on my face will cause redness while this one doesn't cause any redness at all.
The only drawback is quite expensive for a cleanser.

This is my current HG cleanser. It is perfect for my sensitive skin. The consistency is a light, low foaming gel, and you only need a teaspoon for cleansing.
I find that it cleans all my foundation off (Revlon one step cream compact), which is remarkable. It is gentle, and does not strip the natural oils from my skin. It leaves my skin feeling refreshed without tightness or redness afterwards.
The packaging is chic - the immediately recognisable Aesop glass, dark brown bottle. The smell is herbaceous and utterly divine.
I noticed a big difference in my skin after using Aesop's Fabulous Face Cleanser. My redness was reduced significantly, the whiteheads between my eyebrows are disappearing, and my skin has an incredible glow to it. I'm so happy, and will repurchase again and again in a heartbeat.

I really like Aesop but this cleanser is rather useless esp. for eye make-up, mascara, or thick foundation/concealer. My skin didn't feel very clean afterward and I had to wash my face again with other products to get everything off. I'm more of an all-in-one person so clearly this cleanser doesn't work for me. It is not cheap either, taking into consideration that there are a lot of affordable product out there. Sorry, Aesop.

This is a beautiful cleanser, doesn't dry out my skin and leaves it feeling clean. The smell isn't too overpowering either. It's pricy, but I think it's worth it, so I would buy it again.

At first, I've absolutely loved this cleanser - the smell was unusual, but very nice; my skin would feel incredibly refreshed and invigorated, but most importantly my pores would instantly appear smaller, especially my horrible blackheads! After moisturising, my skin was very smooth to touch and I felt great about it overall.
Unfortunately, after a couple of months it started to dry my T-zone out like crazy, and the skin around the nose would feel like sandpaper after using this. I think it could be the reason why my skin is so dehydrated nowadays. :(
Now as to packaging and price - not amazing, but a better value overall if you buy a bigger bottle. The 200ml lasted me all throughout July to November (which I thought was quite something when I've realised that) and only cost me £29(~$45). I love the Aesop packaging as well (probably the best on the market right now) and never felt like the glass bottle is inferior to all the other plastic ones on the shelf - in fact, I think that it's quite original.
Overall, I would've loved it and cherished it forever were it not for the fact that it's better as a short-term solution, but defintely doesn't help the skin in the long run.
