I will be traveling to Austria and the Czech Republic in a couple of weeks and need a cell phone while there for emergencies, calling restaurants, and calling hotels, I don't need data (but if it is super cheap I would probably use it). I do not have a GSM phone nor do I want to keep my U.S. number for the trip.
It seems like purchasing an unlocked GSM phone and SIM card(s) is the least expensive option. Do folks agree?
What are folks' experiences with SIM cards?
-Should I buy an international card that works throughout Europe? Or a separate card for Austria and the Czech Republic?
-Is it cheaper to buy the cards online or once I arrive?
-Where do I buy SIM cards in Austria and the Czech Republic and how much should I expect them to cost?
For the phone it looks like I can buy a bare-bones model for ~$30 at amazon or newegg. Is there any reason those phones shouldn't work?

Question on unlocked phone and SIM card for Austria and Czech Republic
I will be traveling to Austria and the Czech Republic in a couple of weeks and need a cell phone while there for emergencies, calling restaurants, and calling hotels, I don't need data (but if it is super cheap I would probably use it). I do not have a GSM phone nor do I want to keep my U.S. number for the trip.
Report Abuse
I have an unlocked GSM phone I take to Europe when I travel. I've bought SIM cards for it in various countries. For me, it's always been easiest just to buy the SIM card when I arrive for individual countries, but on most of my trips I really need to use the phone only in one or two countries. I guess if I were planning to use it in multiple countries I'd look into an "international" SIM with decent rates for multiple countries, but of course it would cost more than a one-country SIM.
You can always use your SIM card from one country in another - just expect much higher roaming rates. Once I bought an Italian SIM and barely used any of the minutes; later on the same trip I traveled on to Croatia where I used it a few times as an emergency phone and for a few quick calls, so I didn't have to buy another SIM in Croatia.
I bought a SIM card in Olomouc, Czech Republic last fall. I think I bought the Vodaphone SIM (slightly cheaper than T-Mobile SIM). The way SIM cards are sold varies by the country. In some countries they are simply sold in convenience stores or grocery stores. In Czech Republic I think they are sold in mobile stores only. In Olomouc, there was one store for T-Mobile and one for Vodaphone, I think. (those are two dominant carriers - maybe a third, I forget). I don't recall how much my SIM card cost, maybe $12 to $15 USD or so.
IF you buy an unlocked GSM phone in the US before you leave, MAKE SURE it is a true "world phone." US GSM frequencies are not the same as European GSM frequencies; there is some overlap but phones that only do US frequencies may not work in Europe at all. My old Motorola GSM phone that I use originally was a US-only phone (three frequencies) but I hacked it to make it a Europe-only phone. Other GSM phones ("world phones") have four frequencies and work in both the US and Europe.
Report Abuse
A cheap unlocked GSM phone from Newegg should work just fine.
Expect to pay $5-20 or so for a SIM with no data and $30-40 for a SIM with data, depending on where you go.

Consider this an orange juice and mogadon cocktail. While both pretty distracting in their own way, these two quarter-hour treats—brought together for the latest in Paw Tracks' sporadic series of split 12" vinyl releases—gain a whole lot from rubbing up against each other as two sides of the same heavily-grooved coin. Animal Collective's Panda Bear—aka Noah Lennox—rolls out a beautiful medley of sunshiny avant-pop from his latest album Person Pitch, with the emphasis on glitchy electronic textures—shifting seamlessly from a kind of tabla-looped industrial world-music to experimental clip-hop to a dreamy dub, all overlaid with gorgeous, multilayered, Beach Boys harmonies, delivering muffled, just-out-of-reach lyrics that highlight the intention to use vocals as sound not song. New York noiseniks Excepter, for their part, present an intriguingly ineffectual episode that combines ambient noise with formless, rhythmic drifting, soporific heartbeats, electronic drone and oddly incongruous live-show banter—a strangely engaging exercise in going nowhere slowly. You have to wonder who'd win in a fight.

State Laws Mandating Private Discrimination Before 1964
The fascinating exchange between David Bernstein and Sheldon Richman points to a need for historians to explore the history of how governments encouraged and mandated private sector discrimination in the South prior to 1964. This subject is woefully understudied. For example, most historians probably don't even know that Alabama (and the city of Birmingham) required both restaurants and hotels to segregate regardless of the wishes of the owners.

David T. Beito - 6/20/2010
Most of the successes of the sit-ins were in the Upper South or border states. I suspect that those states were less likely to have these laws. Resistance to de-segregation was much stronger in Deep South states such as Mississippi and Alabama. Many of us have seen the famous pictures of abused lunch counter customers from Jackson, Mississippi from as late as 1964.
Sheldon Richman - 6/20/2010
In some cities, desegregation of lunch counters occurred, after months of sit-ins, through an agreement between students organizations and store managers, suggesting that no law mandated segregation.

New Jersey's Division on Civil Rights has filed suit against City Coffee, a café in downtown Camden, following numerous complaints of sexual harassment. Six former employees claim that café owner Ronald Ford Jr. repeatedly touched them and asked them to have sex with him. The women alleged that Ford carefully conducted all his inappropriate acts out of view of surveillance cameras in the small café.
One woman claims Ford often called her into his office alone to issue her pay, then made unwanted physical advances and asked her to pose nude for photos. Another says he asked her to come into his office, where he straddled her and pulled her arms around him while discussing a "quid pro quo" offer of an assistant manager position. When the woman complained to fellow employees, and then to Camden police, he fired her.
It's rare for the state to file a lawsuit against a private employer on employees' behalf, but a Civil Rights Division spokesman said the violations in this case were "egregious" enough to warrant it. The state is seeking a court order stop the harassment plus compensation to the victims for emotional distress and humiliation. The lawsuit also calls for training and monitoring by the division for two years.
Final note: This case is yet another reminder that sexual harassment is still a serious problem. Make sure there is a way for employees to report alleged harassment so the problem can be corrected before a lawsuit is filed.

Defy the zealots and defend liberty
Hacked off: Grant rang shadow cabinet ministers to threaten dire reprisals if they supported the package which the Prime Minister described as 'the toughest independent regulation system in the Western world'
On Monday, after hundreds of hours of negotiation involving politicians, civil servants and industry figures, the three main party leaders were, according to a participant, 'inches away' from an agreement on a Royal Charter for the Press.
It would establish a tough new system of independent regulation with sweeping powers to investigate misconduct, impose massive fines and resolve grievances quickly and cheaply.
But when the anti-Press lobby group Hacked Off and its poster boy spokesman Hugh Grant found out, their rage knew no bounds.
For them nothing short of direct statutory regulation of newspapers will suffice.
So they launched a secret wrecking campaign. Grant rang shadow cabinet ministers to threaten dire reprisals if they supported the package which the Prime Minister described as 'the toughest independent regulation system in the Western world'.
Hacked Off then wrote a draft press statement describing the Charter as 'a dirty deal' and castigating Labour and the Lib Dems for backing it.
In an ugly blackmail attempt it told Labour it would release the inflammatory statement – which personally accused Ed Miliband and his deputy Harriet Harman of 'taking orders from Fleet Street' – unless the Charter talks were abandoned.
Although nothing could have been further from the truth, Mr Miliband – to his eternal shame – capitulated instead of sending Grant and his lobby group off with a flea in their ear.
On Wednesday Labour returned to the cross-party talks with 20 fresh demands, leaving Mr Cameron no option but to admit consensus was impossible.
Thus ended a deeply unedifying week in Parliament.
In this column yesterday we argued that the principle of Press freedom, enshrined in British life for more than 300 years and of vital importance not just to newspapers but to everyone who believes that free expression is a central pillar of democracy, was in grave and imminent danger.
We argued that for cynical short-term motives, a tawdry alliance of Labour and LibDem politicians was holding Parliament hostage in a bid to force through legislation that could diminish the freedom of the Press to expose injustice, corruption and hypocrisy in public life.
To achieve its aim, the alliance is threatening to sabotage important Bills – including defamation reform and cutting business red tape.

It is to this shameful state that the world's oldest Parliament has been reduced by an opportunistic opposition party's determination to embarrass the Government at any cost and a political class still simmering with hatred against a free Press that exposed the MPs' expenses scandal.
We concluded the most unedifying aspect of this saga is the way Labour has been hijacked by Hacked Off, a self-appointed cadre of Press-hating zealots, tarnished celebrities and small-town academics.
But perhaps equally unedifying is the way truth is turned on its head by those self-appointed critics. So it is that they promote the untruth that the Royal Charter is 'designed to help the Press establish a weak and ineffective regulator'.
The truth is the newspaper industry is far from happy with much of the Charter but has accepted it as a compromise to avoid statutory control.
Another canard is that statutory regulation would have prevented the phone hacking scandal. Phone hacking is against the law. If people are determined to break the law, no regulatory system in the world can stop them.
Which brings us to the cynical way the Dowler family have been exploited by critics of the Press. Ruthlessly they have promoted the allegation that News of the World journalists cruelly deleted Milly Dowler's voicemails, giving her parents false hope that she was alive. This was first published in the Guardian, was instantly seized on by Hacked Off, and was the trigger for the Leveson inquiry.
It was later established the messages were routinely deleted by the phone company, but why let this fact get in the way of demonising News International?
Let there be no misunderstanding: the Mail utterly condemns the criminal behaviour of certain sections of the Press.
But is it too much to hope that when they vote on Monday, MPs will ignore the untruths promoted by the zealots, remember that in other countries journalists die in the battle to achieve Press freedom, and suppress the bitterness they feel over newspapers exposing the scandal of their expenses? We're not holding our breath.
Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

Passengers thrown out of running train
Jalpaiguri (WB): Two passengers were killed and seven others injured on Sunday after being thrown out of a Bangalore-Guwahati train, railway sources said.
One of the passengers, who is now admitted to the district hospital, said they were looted, beaten up and then thrown out of the train by unknown persons.
Police found two bodies near Belakoba railway station, few km away from New Jalpaiguri, this morning while seven other persons were found lying injured near the tracks.
"The two had died on the spot. We do not know the reason behind the incident. We are investigating the matter," said New Jalpaiguri area manager (rail) Partho Sarthi Seal.
The injured have been admitted to the district hospital and the North Bengal Medical College Hospital.
Protesting against the incident, locals staged a rail blockade delaying many local trains and all Assam-bound express trains.
Later in the day, the blockade was lifted.

China has imposed duties on imports of some U.S.-made vehicles, claiming damage from foreign automakers due to dumping and subsidies in the latest round of trade friction between the two countries.
The Commerce Ministry said Wednesday that the duties would be imposed for two years on imported cars and sport utility vehicles with engine displacements of over 2.5 liters.
The duties range from 2 percent to 21.5 percent.
The ministry's notice named General Motors Co., Chrysler Group Ltd., Mercedes - Benz U.S. International Inc., BMW's factory in Spartanburg, South Carolina and Honda of America Manufacturing Co. as among the companies affected.
China and the U.S. are at odds over a slew of trade issues. Beijing also has imposed tariffs on imports of U.S. chicken, among other products, while the U.S. has filed complaints against Chinese tariffs on steel and subsidies for wind power equipment.
In October, seven U.S. solar panel companies filed a federal trade complaint against Chinese companies they accuse of dumping solar products on global markets to depress prices.
U.S. trade officials have long complained that China's own subsidies to its auto industry, along with preferential access to cheap credit from state-owned banks, amount to unfair trade practices.
Under international trade rules, countries are allowed to impose punitive tariffs to offset damage from both dumping and unfair subsidies.
The Commerce Ministry said its investigation had found "substantial damage" to its automakers caused by dumping and subsidies.
General Motors, in a statement, said it was working with its partners to gauge the impact of China's decision and to "seek a solution consistent with a constructive global trade environment."
GM's imports account for less than half of 1 percent of its domestic production in China, the company said.
China's domestic automakers have been struggling to keep or gain market share in recent months as demand has slowed after years of torrid growth. Meanwhile, foreign-branded autos, made in China or imported, have fared better among Chinese car buyers who apparently believe they offer better quality or image value.

Morning Poll: Do Arizona Democrats Owe Jan Brewer a Thank You?
Governor Jan Brewer went against the far-right-wing-nuts in her party last week and vetoed several bills -- including the humiliating "Birther Bill" -- the Republican majority in the Legislature desperately wanted. The Arizona Republic seems to think Democrats owe Jan a thank you.
In a piece written by the Republic's editorial board, the paper points out that following Brewer's veto of the bill -- and other bills loathed by Arizona's left -- "the minority party just couldn't play nice. They just could not say thanks."
The bills Brewer vetoed were stupid, "distracting" pieces of legislation, so thanking her for vetoing them -- as a reader commented yesterday -- would be like thanking someone for not kicking you in the balls.
Democratic Party Chairman Andrei Cherny seems to agree, and is offering no gratitude for Brewer's vetoes.
"Have we truly come to expect so little of our leaders that we now need to be grateful to them for not enshrining a fringe conspiracy theory into state law?" Cherny says in a statement. "I believe that public officials should clear a little bit higher bar before I need to rush out and buy them a thank you note."
Cherny's probably right, but as we pointed out yesterday, acknowledging sanity might inspire more of it -- something that's definitely needed in Arizona's state house.
But we want to know what you think: do Arizona Democrats owe Jan Brewer a thank you for defying her party and vetoing the bills?

Praise for Tomboy from Sorry State records:
KILLER debut 12" from this new band from Boston featuring members of Fleabite and others. I'm tempted to say that this is some real riot grrrl throwback stuff, but it doesn't feel retro in the slightest. It's just that Tomboy are tough, catchy, memorable, and heavy in the same way that bands like Bikini Kill or Bratmobile were. One of the frustrations I've had with the punk scene of the past few years is that so many bands seem to have such a narrow frame of reference, not only in the range of bands that have influenced them musically, but also in who they seem to be playing for... it seems like many bands are content just to play to small audiences of people who they already know will like what they're doing. Tomboy are a throwback to when punk set its sights higher... when it was possible to write a catchy, upbeat punk song without either fitting some kind of well-established "pop-punk" template or completely abandoning your punk values and aesthetic. When punk was an attitude rather than a set of rules. Basically, this is great music that reminds me of being a kid and discovering Jawbreaker, Bikini Kill, Nirvana, and so many others and feeling like somehow they're all part of the same thing. If you dug that excellent Dark Times 12" out of Norway, this is another one that you should definitely add to your "to buy" list.

Cool little slab of pop-punk/indie-rock from Tomboy that comes with an inviting smile with its sunshine/sugary rock, but is all dressing for a helping of punk fueled and attitude filled jams underneath.

The Tomboy 12" entitled Sweetie is now available for pre-order. If all goes according to plan it will ship in early May. Also, there was an awesome article about it in Impose this week with a stream of another song from the 12" called "Tomboy Anthem"!
"Being a tomboy is about not letting other people define who we are," says Madeline Burrows, the drummer, vocalist, and songwriter of the feminist punk group Tomboy. "Women are constantly told that we're too fat, too skinny, too loud, not loud enough, too abrasive, not confident enough, too feminine…

QUESTION: I'm afraid that I could be hurt or killed by colleagues who insist on texting while driving. Recently, one of my co-workers offered to drive us to a meeting with a new client. On the way back to the office, "Brad" received a text from his daughter and began reading it while we were in heavy traffic.
When Brad started typing a reply, I told him that this made me uncomfortable. He indignantly replied that he is a good driver who has never had an accident. Ever since that incident, Brad has made mocking comments to others about my "texting paranoia". How should I handle this?
ANSWER: Your reckless colleague is acting like an idiot. If Brad is too stupid to comprehend that one cannot simultaneously type, steer, and watch the road, then someone should show him the statistics on people who have been killed or injured due to texting behind the wheel. As long as he continues this practice, you should avoid riding with him.
However, you may find that Brad's contemptuous account of your "texting paranoia" actually turns out to be helpful. A reputation for being concerned about distracted driving might cause others to curb their bad habits whenever you're a passenger. But if they don't, you should continue to speak up, for their sake as well as your own.

The Golden Gallon Milk Jug drive-throughs conclude the "Pasteurized of the Past" series. Long-time Chattanooga residents will recall the drive-throughs, for they were once along busy highways in nearly every neighborhood. The Milk Jugs essentially played the part of the milkman in reverse; that is, the customer drove from home to the store to pick up dairy products.
In 1959, two young entrepreneurs, Ray Moss, Jr. and Lyle Finley, founded the Golden Gallon Milk Jug Stores, Inc. Mr. Moss grew up on a dairy farm that was located near present-day Bonny Oaks Drive and Highway 153. He was a star football player at Central High School and at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Mr. Finley's family was active in the grocery business.
During the first twenty months of operation, Golden Gallon opened a new store each month. The locations were carefully selected to promote business. Most were on the right-hand side of streets leading away from downtown, so that customers could easily enter and exit the stores. The Milk Jug buildings had a small footprint, and could be fit onto a small parcel. There were two drive-through lanes which stopped under a roof overhang. There, the customer rolled down the car window, and placed the order. Typically, there was only one employee per store, and that person would alternate between the two lanes.
The 1961 city directory lists these locations of Golden Gallon Milk Jugs:* 3212 Dayton Boulevard* 4001 Ringgold Road* 5738 Ringgold Road* 2303 Glass Street* 5948 Brainerd Road* 4300 Dodds Avenue* Hixson Pike at Old Hixson Pike* 3015 Kelly's Ferry Road* 6829 Lee Highway* 3943 St. Elmo Avenue* 227 Signal Mountain Road
My family subscribed to the Grant-Patten Milk home delivery service, but soon switched to taking a short drive to the St. Elmo Milk Jug. My father would even take our two Chihuahuas with him in the car.
I remember that Golden Gallon sponsored the "Let's Go to the Races" contest for a year or more. Customers picked up a horse race form at the Milk Jug. On Saturday evening, the customers would tune in to watch host Larry "The Legend" Johnson and footage of horse races. If your race form had the winning number, you won a prize. Most race forms seemed to have a horse that led most of the way, only to finish far behind.
Initially, the Milk Jugs only carried dairy products. To increase business, Golden Gallon added to the product lineup over the years. Icee machines, later replaced by Frozen Coke, served up frosty treats on a hot day. In 1972, Golden Gallon began to move away from the small drive-through stores by building "farm stores," that offered more variety of products. Self-service gasoline pumps were added in 1973. Prior to the 1973 oil embargo, gas sold for 19 cents a gallon in Chattanooga. The Golden Gallon chain continued to grow by adding stores in the tri-state area, and sometimes by acquisition. In 1981, the 7-Eleven stores in Chattanooga were bought, followed by the 1983 purchase of the Stop-n-Go locations.
At some point, "Milk Jug" was dropped from store names, while larger stores continued to replace the smaller, original ones. By 1994, only two drive-throughs were left. Some were converted to other uses. The Signal Mountain Road store became Sportsman's Barbecue, and the St. Elmo Avenue location was turned into an Armando's Hamburgers.
Local nurse Sue Marshall recalls working at the Hickory Valley/Shallowford Road drive-through in the late 1980's. "We had folks from Hixson and other areas drive to our store, just so that they could go to a drive-through. Handicapped customers especially liked us." Sue operated the store by herself, and the store served both drive-in and walk-up customers. That meant that she had to keep a close watch on what was happening at the store. Customers could order anything sold in the store from their cars, and some caused delays by asking for their sandwiches to be heated or for cream/sugar to be added to the coffee. She noted that people from all walks of life – from county commissioners in suits to insomniacs in pajamas and hair rollers - stopped in at the Golden Gallon drive-through.
If you were one of the original Golden Gallon Milk Jug store operators, know someone who was, or you have memories of going to one of stores during its early days, please send me an e-mail at email@example.com.

First Chapter
'American Desert'
By PERCIVAL EVERETT
Published: May 9, 2004
THAT THEODORE STREET WAS dead was not a matter open to debate. The irony of his accidental death went unobserved as no one knew that Theodore was on his way to commit suicide when he was, shall we say, interrupted. Now the irony is lost amid the confusion created by Ted's death, departure, demise, dissolution and further by the fact that Ted chooses to relate his own story in third person, an unusual (the occasional politician and athlete aside), but acceptable device, given that, in a most profound way, he stood-or stands even-outside himself, not so much on the parapet of consciousness but of life itself, it being perhaps the case that neither entails, necessarily, the other. But regardless of where Ted stood, or stands, he was on his way to the beach where he had every intention of marching into the ocean until it was over his head and taking a deep, lung-filling breath of water which, according to his limited knowledge of human physiology, would result in a termination of his life, barring the interference of some lifeguard or Boy Scout or Girl Scout, though he had never found Girl Scouts to be terribly overzealous or meddlesome. He was driving at a respectable clip along Ocean Boulevard when a fat man chased his nails-painted poodle out into the street before a UPS truck, causing the driver of the huge, brown block to swerve and slide into a lane of oncoming traffic, the oncoming traffic in this case being Ted Street in his 1978 Lancia coupe. The truck and the Lancia met violently and whereas his vehicle halted quite abruptly, Ted did not, but continued in the same direction he had been traveling through the already cracked windscreen. Remarkably, Ted's face suffered not a single scratch and neither did his body break about the ribs, clavicles, arms or legs, but his head did become rather cleanly detached from the rest of him. It was a jagged but complete wound around his neck that left one seasoned police officer vomiting by the accordioned front fender of the Lancia while the young rookie on patrol with him stood, mouth agape, staring at the head lying on the asphalt. Unlike the stories of beheaded Frenchmen stealing one last, pitiful look at their cast-off bodies, Ted had no such perception. He died instantly and, in a manner of speaking, completely. The UPS man was beside himself, so much so that he would later attend Ted Street's funeral and subsequently take a civil service examination in order to change his profession. The coroner's wagon came with a representative of the coroner, not the coroner himself, and the young man observed Ted's head from his wagon door and was satisfied that he was dead, making the requisite marks on his clipboard, but having to call his office to ask whether head and body should be placed in the same or separate bags. Ted's head was placed under his left arm, the fingers of his hand falling over his mouth which was frozen partly open, and the cool vinyl bag was zipped from bottom to top. The ride in the coroner's wagon to the morgue was protracted, the medical examiner's assistant stopping at a fast-food restaurant, his mother's house, a comic-book store and a remote parking lot where he charged gang thugs a dollar each to "see the stiff."
* * *
At the morgue, which turned out not to be deep in the bowels of some hospital but on a second floor of the sixties-vintage medical examiner's offices with lots of windows that didn't open and a unisex restroom, Ted's wife, Gloria, viewed his head on a video monitor as it sat in a metal bowl. She let out a short but reasonably justified scream. She then fell into the arms of her sister, Hannah, who "had never liked Ted anyway," and wept convincingly and no doubt sincerely, the image of the head on the screen etching itself into her forever-memory. The image blurred just a bit, there on the screen, but finally looked exactly like the head she had slept with for so many years. The matter, however, rang with an air of incompleteness, as it was the case that the body was never identified, only the head and isn't that what is always required? That the body be identified? "We want you to come down and identify the body," the cop always says. Never, "Is that his head?" So, Gloria signed papers and said that Ted had never mentioned that he wanted his organs donated to medicine, science, or the needy and that such a decision should have been his and that he, all of him, should be sent to the Iverson, Ash, Graves and Shroud Mortuary over in Garden Grove and so he was. Sent over there.
In the embalming room, Ash and Graves agreed that Ted had lost enough blood that there would be poor draw on the fluid and that no one would notice the difference anyway if they didn't fill him with formaldehyde and methyl alcohol and certainly they were not going to waste humectants and anticoagulants on him. Besides, as Ash pointed out to Graves, poor draw could create embarrassing results, as when Pope John Paul I began to swell up and make sounds during the live broadcast of his funeral ceremony. "Don't you remember how that poor altar boy had to keep wiping the purge away from the pontiff's mouth?" Ash said. Ash sewed Ted's head back onto his body, his stitches sloppy but tight, using blue thirty-weight fishing line, and instead of sewing the mouth shut by passing the thread through the nose, Ash simply put eight stitches between the lips.

The NAB announced last week that 82 international delegations are expected to attend NAB2007 — a record for the trade show and up from last year's 72 international delegations that attended.
According to Chris Brown, association executive VP of conventions and business operations, more than 25 percent of those attending NAB2007 will be international participants.
Many of the international delegations attend the NAB convention through the association's continuing partnership with the U.S. Department of Commerce and its International Buyer Program (IBP).
Last year, more than 25,000 attendees representing 141 countries traveled from outside the United States to attend NAB2006. U.S. embassies, consulates or specialized tour operators organize international delegations.
International participants will make their presence felt on the show floor with several international pavilions, including the Bavarian Pavilion, Belgian Pavilion, China Pavilion, France-Bretagne International Pavilion, Korean DMB Pavilion and the UK@NAB Pavilion.

I asked out my BGF and everything got awkward after that. After a few days the weirdness wore off but then he told me who he was crushing on. It wasn't me. But every time he sees me, he blushes. Every time we talk he stares deep into my eyes. I feel like he likes me.

|The 2015 Meat & Greet will take place on the Cherry Blossom paddle boat embarking from Alexandria, Virginia. We will begin the evening with a delicious, smoked BABBQ-style dinner prepared by our pit-master Ray Walters afterwards we will depart from the USPTO via chartered buses to the Alexandria waterfront. The 3-hour cruise will tour up the Potomac River from Historic Old Town Alexandria, to the DC Tidal Basin and back (3 hour charter). The BAMG is a perfect opportunity to network with fellow DC developers as well as our sponsors. Find a new partner for that next project you want to tackle, or land that new job you've been looking for -- or just relax and enjoy the ride, view of the Cherry Blossoms. The return trip will be capped off with an evening fireworks display (weather-permitting). A full, open bar and light snacks will be included in the cost of your reasonably priced ticket.

Thought for the day -- if you oppose modern genetic modification of food crops, you should be aware of the following:
Many common crop varietals have been produced using what I'll call "old-school genetic modification". In this process, we take a plant's germ cells and beat the hell out of them with mutagenic chemicals and/or highly ionizing radiation (e.g., gamma radiation from nuclear reactions). This creates lots of completely random mutations in the plant's DNA, and you simply cross your fingers that some of them will be beneficial. This has been common since around the '20s, and includes many crops currently labeled "organic".
Preferring that process to modern, surgical genetic modification can be thought of as preferring being shot with a shotgun to having endoscopic laser surgery. Sure, the shotgun might accidentally fix something, but...... more »

Comet PanSTARRS and a Crescent Moon
Image Credit & Copyright: Yuri Beletsky (Las Campanas Observatory, Carnegie Institution)
A comet has brightened quickly and unexpectedly. Discovered last year, Comet C/2014 Q1 (PanSTARRS) is expected to be visible now for a few days to the unaided eye, just after sunset, from some locations. The comet rounded the Sun on July 6 and apparently has shed quite a bit of gas and dust. Today it is now as close as it will ever get to the Earth, which is another factor in its recent great apparent brightness and the large angular extent of its tails. In the featured image taken two days ago, Comet PanSTARRS is seen sporting a short white dust tail fading to the right, and a long blue ion tail pointing away from the recently set Sun. A crescent moon dominates the image center. Tomorrow, Comet PannSTARRS will... more »

Channelling the music of The Doors
Relevant offers
Don't call the Lizard Kings a Doors' tribute band.
Lead singer Marcus Roebuck said the covers, the psychedelic lighting and even the voice behind this weekend's multimedia show The Doors Experience might imitate Jim Morrison, but the Lizard Kings aren't trying to be the 1960s-70s band incarnate.
"We never wanted to be a tribute band," he said. Their music - set against documentary footage - is for the wide demographic who have always responded to the charisma of the original Lizard King.
The title was a nickname lead singer Jim Morrison used for himself - taken from a poem he wrote - which The Doors performed until Morrison's death in Paris in 1971.
Roebuck said he had an "instant connection" to The Doors after hearing Riders on the Storm at age 16.
Since then, he has had ample opportunity to belt out favourites like Light my fire and Love her madly as the frontman for a blues band doing weekend gigs in the Nelson area.
The Lizard Kings was a natural extension of the blues genre for the "two music tutors, two carpenters and a colour copier technician", he said.
"I always lived outside my time . . . we never set out to be specifically a Doors band. We just played Riders on the Storm one night and the crowd really got into it. I thought 'we could do something with this'."
Since they started taking the show on tour as the Lizard Kings, they've put the whole night together with a multimedia picture and light show that "connects the past to the present with futuristic elements", he said.
The Doors broke up in 1973, two years after Morrison's death at age 27, but Roebuck said nearly 40 years later their music still resonated with all ages.
"We get greyheads to dreadheads. Crowds really embrace us once we start playing." The Doors Experience will be at Players Entertainment Centre on Sunday at 8pm.

Great location,great hotel,awesome staff
I had a awesome time, the hotel is not too big, but really nice and clean, it was just perfect for me. The roof top is great I loved to go there and rest for a little bit of my walkings down Madrid, and having a glass of wine at night. The
location is perfect too! The hotel is located on one of the principal streets in Madrid, everything is really close. Well in general I loved it!! I was there last tuesday and I'm ready to go back!!
Valor, that's the name of the best place to have churros con chocolate in Madrid! It's a must!
kind staff and good facility
I've not experienced the meal there, so I can't mention about that. The staff can good English and kind, polite. I think this is very important thing. Even though the room would not be my favor, it will be not a problem. However this hotel room
was very clean and confortable.
One thing, I could not use the safety box because it required credit card scanning. It scared me
Definitely a chill and comfy hotel
This may be the place should you want a central hotel for rest and relaxation. Will definitely book again when next I'm in the city. Good rate, comfy bed and great full bathroom.
Perfect for exploring Madrid
This hotel was gorgeous, good position , staff very friendly . I didn't try the breakfast as at 15€ I felt was expensive as I would only want coffee and toast , so maybe it was good value I don't know. The only other criticism was the limited
choice of movies , there was nothing I wanted to watch. So I would definitely recommend this hotel.
F&B just a short walk towards c.mayor . The food was great , good prices and staff so friendly.
Vinci Via
The hotel was great, always clean and very good staff. I had a few issues with the key to the room but that was minor.
Perfect location, able to walk the entire city staying at this hotel.
Would not recommend
Great Location, but ...
I thought the hotel had a fitness center. Not! No free wifi. NO iron in the room.
Glitz gone bad
The weird decor of this hotel - old movie star photos, black and red everywhere, odd cutouts in the paneling - was scary, but at least I had a wonderful view from my 9th floor room. But then I began hearing odd cooing and scratching sounds that
could have been a bird or a mouse trapped inside a wall. I then moved to a 2nd floor room, where the view wasn't so great and there was a lot more street noise. This is centrally located, but in a heavily trafficked tourist area far from attractions such as museums, nice shopping, parks and other points of interest. A saving grace is the wonderful terrace, though the prices charged - 3 euros for a tiny glass of coke - were ridiculous. Still, check out the terrace if you're in the area but do yourself a favor and do not check into this hotel.
The Gran Via is not the greatest location. On this same trip, I also stayed in an apartment in a residential area within easy walking distance of Prado and there were much nicer restaurants, clubs, etc., there.
