New York hotels
What travelers to New York are saying
New York Hotel Deals with Hotelclub.com
Ah, the Big Apple. The quintessential, bustling metropolis; seductive, sexy and just a little bit dangerous. It's the place where dreams are made of (and quite a few have been broken). If you can make it there, you'll make it anywhere…
From its rich, cultural roots and diversity to its glam lifestyle and incredible high-rise architecture like the Chrysler Building, it's hard not to fall in love with New York City. Well, maybe lust more than love. Regardless, New York City can satisfy even the pickiest traveller so well that a post-visit cigarette may be necessary.
For shopaholics, department stores like Henri Bendel and Macy's make racking up a massive credit card bill practically compulsory. For art lovers, New York is home to some of the best museums and galleries on the planet. For pop culture junkies, some of the world's biggest, highest-rating talk shows are filmed in the likes of NBC Studios. For snootier, er, more refined tastes, Carnegie Hall is a must. Or head into Harlem for a show at the legendary Apollo Theater.
Plus, where else in the world can you bag yourself an epic slice of delicious, artery-clogging pizza at 4am after chilling in an achingly-hip, underground jazz bar? Only in New York, baby.
New York's Top 10
David Letterman films his show in New York. His Top 10 lists are famous. This one's better.
10. NY Public Library: This place isn't just for the nerds and bookworms. The building is architecturally amazing and steeped in history. Plus, the books smell amazing!
5. Empire State Building: Another NYC icon. King Kong climbed it in the classic movie (and two rather iffy remakes), but you'll have to take the lifts. Or the stairs. All 1576 of them.
9. The Guggenheim: Modern art enveloped in a mind-boggling structure. Don't be afraid to lose yourself in here.
4. Broadway: Where theatre magic happens, but only in one section (it's a long road). Singing Andrew Lloyd Webber medleys in the bit that runs through the Bronx will get you some very funny looks.
8. Central Park: Synonymous with the city and huge (843 acres, to be exact). Grab a coffee, go for a walk and spy on New Yorkers in their natural habitat.
3. MOMA: Stands for Museum of Modern Art. Expect world-class exhibitions, inspiring art and a pretty awesome gift shop!
7. Madison Square Garden: A must for sports and music fans. Big names perform here on a regular basis. Best to avoid Celine Dion concerts, though. Her fans are weird.
2. FAO Schwarz – Kids and adults alike will have minds blown. Toy fantasies come to life in ways you won't believe.
6. Saks Fifth Ave: Where rich New Yorkers and visitors drop some serious coin. Even if you don't have thousands to spend, this store will keep you busy (and jealous).
1. Times Square – An absolute must-see, especially at night. This neon playground will assault your every sense (in a good way).

NY Local – The Five BoroughsManhattan
The busiest borough, home to Grand Central Station, skyscrapers, Ground Zero and pretty much everything you see in the movies. So much to see, do and explore here. Bloomingdale's is imperative for shoppers – hellooo, big brands! Singles, pay close attention… If you want to bag yourself a rich hottie, hit up Wall Street, where money and testosterone abounds. Then wind down after shopping and picking up fine gentleman with some culture and history at the African Art Museum and African Burial Ground.Staten Island
The park borough. It's got no less than five major parks, thank you very much. They're not as big as Central Park, but they're just as beautiful and a hell of a lot more relaxing – which just goes to prove that size really doesn't matter. If you want to let the kids run wild and subtly teach them a thing or two, hit up the Staten Island Children's Museum. And don't forget to hop on board the Staten Island Ferry to take a squiz at the magnificent Statue of Liberty.Brooklyn
The most populated borough. Coney Island's allure should not be ignored. The theme park has undergone a makeover recently and there's also a nice, little beach and boardwalk, too. Have fun and catch some waves. It's win-win, really – except after dark when it's a popular hangout for gangs. The Brooklyn Botanic Gardens hosts an acre-long cherry tree strip, nose-pleasing rose gardens, an impressive Bonsai collection and more. And for awe-inspiring views, a hell of a lot of exercise and an excuse to spy on fit bods working out, take a stroll along the iconic Brooklyn Bridge.Queens
The largest borough boasts a rich mix of culture, from the Queens Museum of Art for a to the Queens Botanical Garden. The Queens Wildlife Center, aka the Queens Zoo, can also provide a fun-filled day. Who doesn't like pointing and laughing at those kooky elephants? No? Jazz fans and neophytes must pay a visit to the Flushing Town Hall, a thriving beacon of culture, art and music that asserts itself as a jazz icon.The Bronx
This borough contains a massive variety of neighbourhoods, stacks of things to do and is the birthplace of J.Lo, no less. Catch a baseball game at Yankee Stadium whilst simultaneously scoffing a hot dog and waving a giant, novelty finger in the air. Pelham Bay Parkis bigger than Central Park and has basketball and tennis courts, golf courses, bike trails, wildlife sanctuaries and a beach on offer. With so much to do and see, don't be surprised if you spend your entire day here (then collapse in an exhausted, sweaty heap). Oh, and animal lovers, the Bronx Zoo is your Mecca. Seriously. Big. Huge. Awesome.
Eat & Drink
As much as New York is the place to shop, enrich and educate, it's also the place to chomp on some yum food and sip on world-class wine. With a mix of cheap, little treasures and elegant establishments, there's something for everyone.
Second Avenue Deli: Famous and perpetually busy. Grab a hearty meal to eat in or a gourmet roll to go. It's Kosher-friendly, too.
Grimaldi's Pizza: Who doesn't love a good, coal-oven pizza? You'll be waiting a while, but the goods are so very worth it.
Flatiron Lounge: A hip crowd of young and old drink at this cool and classy establishment.
Grand Central Oyster Bar and Restaurant: Underneath Grand Central Station, this gem boasts fab oysters as its specialty.
Serendipity: Tourists and locals happily unite in this seriously epic dessert heaven.
Nobu: Refined Japanese food, a cult-following and a major fave with the famous. Play spot the celeb with friends!
The Monkey Bar: Great food and cocktails with a Roaring '20s vibe. Be sure to check out the art on the walls and snap photos like an annoying tourist.
Buddakan: Chic surroundings paired with modern Asian fare. There's a giant, gold Buddha in here. It's cool.
Virgil's: The famous BBQ ribs and steaks will induce Homer Simpson-like drooling.
Pastis: Famous for its French cuisine and cool crowd. Hard to get a place, but worth it if you have the schmooze skills.
Even though you probably won't score an invite (sorry), New York Fashion Week is a great time to be in the city. Held in an often freezing February, this is when the fashionistas, celebs and big-wig designers come out to play. Loiter for celeb-spotting and fashion-jealousy. Then make like you're in a Meg Ryan rom-com and take a spin around the Rockefeller Center ice rink.
Show some gay pride and/or support by taking a gander at the floats and wild characters of the Gay Pride Parade and March, held every June. This GLBT event is fun and rowdy and absolutely guaranteed to make you smile. It's a good opportunity to get wasted, too.
Shakespeare in the Park is one of the New York's most beloved summer traditions. Two Shakespearean plays are performed over eight weeks and while tickets are free (woo!), they're limited (boo!). It's held at the Delacorte Theater in Central Park and tickets must be picked up at a variety of nominated places around the city on the day of the performance. Bring food and drinks and enjoy!
The world's best tennis players come to New York for the US Open every September. Held at Flushing Meadows in Queens, it's part tennis match, part rock concert. The crowd is loud and raucous, the standard of play fantastic – and it goes into the wee small hours every night.
Fancy a good chuckle? November's New York Comedy Festival provides some comedy relief and always includes big names in the bill. It's held in a bunch of venues around the city, so go and wet yourself in the funnest way possible. Bring spare pants.
New Yorkers love a good parade. The famous Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in November is nothing you've ever seen or experienced before. Think: massive, childhood-memories in float-form, oodles and oodles of people and a fun vibe. (The good peeps at Macy's also do a cool fireworks display on the Fourth of July. They sure know how to throw a good party.)
Running from early November to the beginning of January, the Radio City Christmas Spectacular is a long festival of kitschy, Christmas fun. It's been around for 75 years so you know it's cool. Ticket prices vary.
If you're in New York for New Year's Eve and can stand being squashed by a million people, cram into Times Square and watch the famous ball drop to bring in the new year.
When To Go
New York's winter is brutal but beautiful. If you're prepared to don some sexy thermals and thick coats, expect to be blown away by a city blanketed in snow. On the flipside, summer in the city is incredibly humid. If you're looking for cold, but not freeze-your-boogers cold, February to April is perfect. For warm but not gross-and-sweaty, try September through to October.
- Winter – Average of -2°C (28°F)
- Spring – Average of 15°C (59°F)
- Summer – Average of 25°C (77°F)
- Autumn – Average of 18°C (64°F)
What To Miss
While many fear a good ol' fashioned mugging, they're pretty rare. However, bag snatching is a danger. Keep your bag on you at all times and hold on tight.
The lower Eastside of Manhattan, the Bronx and North Brooklyn can be sketchy after dark. Central Park and Riverside Park after dark are other no-nos.
The street-food of NYC has a certain allure and let's face it, you wanna eat like they do in the movies, but if you spot a vendor with a less-than-impressive line of people waiting to be fed, stay away. We're talking gross, stale pretzels and hot dogs that'll send you on a one-way trip to the Porcelain God. Not pretty, dude.
Getting Around
Forget whiffy hire cars, this is a city of walking. Get plenty of exercise and stumble upon the many treasures lined along the streets. For longer trips, the Subway system is the go. Not nearly as spooky as the films make it out to be, this is one of the oldest and most extensive public transportation systems in the world. If you're planning on getting some heavy-duty travel under your belt, bag yourself a MetroCard.
Single fare Subway tickets cost about $2.50.
MetroCards cost between $29 for 7 days to $104 for 30 days.

OOgly Eyes Designs was the inevitable result of two best friends collaborating on projects long distance over an eleven year period. Working as freelancers, and independent contractors, from separate states throughout these years – we found that our skill sets compliment one another perfectly. It also taught us the importance of precise, timely communication, and how to organize and manage projects – from a distance.
It had long been a dream of ours to come together in the same location and grow a business that highlights and promotes both of our skills. Allowing us to reflect our individual personalities and styles, while keeping our job – our passion. We wanted a business that empowers clients to have a high end web site, without the high end cost.
We both relocated to Pensacola, FL from California and New York in early 2011. It was then that OOgly Eyes Designs, LLC was born.
Though many of our clients are from Upstate New York; Ellicottville, Olean, Buffalo, Oneonta and now Pensacola – we service clients from all over the world.
Only until recently in the design industry, when a website was built, you were stuck with the designer. If a client chose to make any changes, or needed updates, they had to seek out that same designer to have it done. However, we feel it is important to create a unique environment that gives the client the control to maintain their own website content. When our clients return to us, it's because they are satisfied – not stuck.
OOgly Eyes Designs creates, maintains, and delivers web solutions that will provide
our clients with the highest possible return on their investment.

For those of you that know me know I have fallen in love with wine. I love learning about the different kinds of wine, the flavors, how the grapes are grown, and anything else there is to know. There is a lot! My favorite is a really good Syrah! So i found a great listing of guidelines today on how to pair your wines with your food. I know it can be intimidating when you stand in the grocery store and there is bottle after bottle of wine! So enjoy :)

General view of Lech, the usual holiday resort of Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands and members of the Dutch royal family, on February 17, 2013 in Lech, Austria. In the middle lies the Parish Church of St Nicholas where a service of prayers was held in the resort of Lech today, marking the first anniversary of the ski-ing accident that left Prince Friso of The Netherlands critically injured. Prince Friso of Orange-Nassau (44) second son of Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands, was hit by an avalanche while ski-ing off-piste in the resort of Lech, under which he remained buried for 20 minutes. He suffered brain damage due to shortage of oxygen and has remained in a coma since the accident. (Photo by Michel Porro/Getty Images)

The stakes have been decided for this years Regional Economic Development Council competition, and the north country will be vying for a $25 million cut of a $150 million pot of state money.
The north country has been a favorite ever since the program was founded in 2011, being named a top performer three years in a row.
This year may be more difficult. Instead of all 10 councils competing directly against one another, they have been split into two groups.
The top five performers from last year will compete against one another. Each will come up with priority projects it hopes will be funded in the year to come, and only the top two plans will receive a $25 million prize.
The bottom five performers from last year also will compete against one another, with three scoring $25 million.
Theyre trying to help those who didnt do well last year, said Anthony G. Collins, Clarkson University president and North Country Regional Economic Development Council co-chairman.
The losing regions will split $25 million among themselves.
The total $150 million pot is for priority projects. The councils plans also will include applications for other state grant money, along with $70 million in tax credits.
Last year the north country won a total of $81.3 million.
The state will focus on three main points while evaluating this years council applications: the successful implementation of past plans, job creation and global exports.
Mr. Collins said he believes this prepares the north country to have another successful year.
We believe that we are forming strong relationships with, in particular, Canada, so we think we are well positioned for this years competition, he said. Increased trade with Canada likely will be a focus of this years application, along with tourism, agriculture and the arts.
The application deadline is Aug. 15, and the awards likely will be announced near the end of the year.
There are no guarantees but were looking for a grand slam, Mr. Collins said.
Thousands of readers like you have made Northern New York Newspapers the number one ranked website* for local news and sports coverage in the north country.

The Surprising Denim Trend You Don't Know About Yet
- 1 of 16
The new mom jean is a hybrid of the familiar high-waisted skinny and your beloved boyfriend jeans. The loose, straight-leg style sits at your waist, looks best in a vintage-inspired, medium-blue or light wash, and comes in varying lengths. Not ones to be intimidated, we've turned to fashion insiders like Vanessa Traina Snow, model Laura Love, and bloggers like Danielle Perlstein of We Wore What, to illustrate how easy it is to pull off.
- 2 of 16
- 3 of 16
Vanessa Traina Snow
For an evening out with her sister, Traina Snow styled her pair with a roomy, navy cropped top (similar here) layered over a sheer tank, plus basic black pumps and a slick ponytail.
- 4 of 16
Pernille Teisbaek of Look de Pernille
Teisbaek's ensemble is further proof that you don't have to wear a tight top to offset the baggier silhouette of the jeans. Her textured Stella McCartney Tartan Sweater (no longer available) and white Gianvito Rossi Pointed Toe Pumps ($536) elevate the style and are appropriate for a winter lunch or casual cocktails.
- 5 of 16
Marine Vacth
Wearing her faded vintage pair to Chanel's Haute Couture S/S 14 show, model Vacth embodies Parisian cool with black booties and a Chanel tweed coat (similar here).
- 6 of 16
Danielle Bernstein of We Wore What
Bernstein paired her Topshop Moto Blue Jeans ($40) with a Theory Aguilina B Top ($193), Zara Pinstripe Coat ($100), and Prada loafers for a clean, classic interpretation of the style.
- 7 of 16
Street Style from The Styleograph
These vintage Levi's jeans are the perfect medium wash. Tuck a bright knit (similar here) into the waistband and top with a long coat (similar here) and chunky boots. How's that for getting you out the door in under five minutes?

It was more than a month ago that I started my pilgrimage to Texas to prepare for and participate in a court case in East Texas, but it still seems like only yesterday. As Groklaw aptly reports, opposing counsel pressed not only the question of whether Red Hat and Novell infringed three patents originally issued to Xerox corporation (which later fell into the hands of a non-practicing entity), but argued before the jury that there was a fundamental conflict between property rights and open source software--a conflict they wanted the jury to resolve in their favor.
While I have been processing the events of the trial, playing and replaying lines of questioning over and over in my mind, I've barely been able to keep up with the extraordinary changes to both the competitive landscape and the competitive rules of the technology industry. Having escaped from one rabbit-hole, I appear to have fallen down another directly.
While I was defending my own respect for the law, as well as those of my employer, Red Hat, strident language from Apple CEO Steve Jobs in a letter to Hugo Roy about video codec patents put us all on notice that these laws, as currently constructed and enforced, threaten the most basic freedoms most of us take for granted:
All video codecs are covered by patents. A patent pool is being assembled to go after Theora and other "open source" codecs now. Unfortunately, just because something is open source, it doesn't mean or guarantee that it doesn't infringe on others patents. An open standard is different from being royalty free or open source.
Reading the above, it is not clear whether Apple is planning to be a patent aggressor against open source, or if they are merely snitching on the plans of other patent aggressors. If the former, then they become an enemy of open source. If the latter, will they condone such aggressive behavior, or will they offer assistance to fight against such aggression? If they offer assistance, we should accept, but if they condone it, they are no friends at all. These are the only three potential interpretations I can make of the first two sentences.
Much more troubling is the last sentence, which clearly contradicts what the OSI has been saying about open standards for the past five years. Namely: an "open standard" must not prohibit conforming implementations in open source software. More specifically:
To comply with the Open Standards Requirement, an "open standard" must satisfy the following criteria. If an "open standard" does not meet these criteria, it will be discriminating against open source developers.
This note from Apple was like a rabid dog barking at the pound, for it seemed to set off a flurry of patent-rattling from all corners, with Microsoft quickly claiming that Salesforce.com infringed nine of their patents, Nokia claiming that Apple infringed 5 more of its patents, HTC getting into the fray, etc.
And then along comes Google. And instead of piling on to this patent suit scrum, they offer immunity instead. Which is astonishing.
I have to give some props to the FSF for asking for precisely what Google seems to have decided to do. They wrote an open letter asking Google to free VP8 and use it on YouTube. The bigger part of that decision now seems to have been effected. Which, to use the FSF's own adjective, is amazing. And cause for both gratitude and celebration.
And of course this is not the end of the story, but the beginning. The license Google wrote for VP8 smacks of OSD goodness, but it has not yet been submitted to the OSI for approval. Should the OSI approve yet another license? Should the OSI treat a patent grant attached to a license we've already approved as two separate items, a patent grant (which is great) and a license we've already approved? Clearly Google is trying to do the right thing. We are trying to do the right thing. What remains to be seen is whether the H.264 are going to do the right thing and offer all their patents as required by the Open Standards Requirements (OSR) or whether Apple will do the right thing and defend, rather than attack, the open source community and its right to enjoy watching a movie on the laptop of their choice.

The New Technology Alliance between Bowens, PocketWizard, and Sekonic
It's a beautiful thing when children play together nicely in the playground. Same can be said for photographic gear manufactured by different companies that are 'guaranteed' to work flawlessly together when you're out on assignment. If you shoot for a living you're well aware how persnickety mixed dancing between photo gear of mixed lineage can be, even when the company's website and sales rep says otherwise.
The Technology Alliance, a photo industry consortium consisting of Bowens, PocketWizard, and Sekonic, is out to put an end to all this nonsense. In it's first official act it has announced that as of May 2014, select Bowens monolights, Sekonic flash meters, and PocketWizard remote triggering devices will, moving forth, speak the same language and perform as advertised on the job. They will play together nicely in the playground too. This launch is focused on the USA and applies to radio units and modules that are FCC-licensed in the USA.
By incorporating PocketWizard Bowens GEM Receiver modules which insert into Bowen's Gemini-series 500R, 500Pro, 750Pro, 1000Pro and 1500Pro-series of monolights (As of May 2014), Bowens has joined the ranks of other lighting manufacturers (Profoto, Dynalite, Photogenic, & Norman) who have also chosen PocketWizard as their wireless triggering system of choice.
The PocketWizard Bowens GEM Receiver modules used in Bowens Gemini monolights is thoroughly compatible with all existing PocketWizard transmitters. When used with a PocketWizard Plus III or MultiMAX all 32 channels and QuadZones can be accessed. When using PocketWizard PlusX, remote triggering is limited to channels 1 through 10. PocketWizard MiniTT1 and FlexTT5 units can also trigger and select zones when used with Bowens new PocketWizard-equipped Gemini monolights.
In addition to the latest versions of Bowens 500R, 500Pro, 750Pro, 1000Pro, and 1500Pro monolights, all existing PocketWizard remote triggering devices will work fluently within the system as will Sekonic's L-478DR and L-758DR flash meters. Earlier Sekonic meters can also be used by syncing to any PocketWizard transmitter or transceiver, which are available separately.
To mark the occasion and lend a smatter of branding into the mix, a special edition PocketWizard Plus III Transceiver in "Bowens' accent yellow" is now available, and they are the same price as the existing black Plus III Transceivers.
To celebrate the "technology Alliance", Bowens has launched a promotion where purchasers of Bowens Gemini R or Pro monilights or kits can get one free BowensGEM Module per monolight until June 30, 2014. Details here. PocketWizard-manufactured BowensGEM Radio Modules will be available in the USA at authorized dealers starting on or around May 21, 2014.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA9) - This week's report has the regular no hotwater violation, but with a twist along with a confusing visit to aTakoma Park grocery where we couldn't tell the mice droppings from thespilled Ethiopian spices.
Click the video above to see whether you believe the shopkeeper's claims about black specs or a restaurant worker's claims she was trained in food safety (so, we ask her about the safe temperature for holding hot food).
To know about restaurant closures first, follow @russptacek on Twitter or Facebook.
Besides Takoma park, inspectors temporarily closed businesses in Arlington, Washington, D.C., and Clinton, Md.
Crowded Woodley Park Spot Closed With 10 Violations
In Woodley Park, there's often a line to get in to crack the seafood atHot & Juicy Crawfish on Connecticut Avenue N.W. where inspectorscited 10 violations.
Hot & Juicy's citations included no one certified and trained in food safety and operating with no hot water.
A woman employees identified as the certified food manager acknowledged she hasn't even taken the sanitation test.
"I'm actually working on it," she said. "I already passed the course. I'm just waiting to take the test."
Manager Couldn't Answer Food Safety Questions
She couldn't answer our basic food safety questions like what's the basic holding temperature for holding hot food.
The required minimum temperature is 140 degrees. The Hot & Juicy Crawfish worker guessed '70.'
The restaurant had corrected the violation of operating with no hotwater, but the worker wrongly guessed the required minimum as between100 and 110.
The correct answer is 110, minimum.
Our thermometer recorded their hot water as reaching 137 degrees.
Experts say that's so hot, it could burn.
Arlington Cafes Closed For Operating With No Water
In Arlington, Café Sazon got in trouble for the same thing as their neighbor across the Columbia Pike, El Tutumaso.
Inspectors say there was a water main break, and when they came arrivedboth restaurants were continuing to operate without any running water.
The manager at El Tutumaso says he hadn't noticed the water was off
And showed us it is hot and running now.
Across the street at Sazon, they wouldn't allow us into their kitchen, but did show us the water now flows in the bathroom.
Jerry's Subs Closed With 22 Violations
At Jerry's Subs on Coventry Way in Clinton, inspectors cited
22 violations
They asked us to leave when we requested to see conditions in their kitchen.
Inspectors ordered Jerry's closed citing a sewage backup on the kitchenfloor, no hot water or soap at a hand sink, and dirty ice maker, andfloors.
Takoma Park Grocer Closed For Rodents
Inside Malik Grocers on Holton Lane In Takoma Park, the owner assured uswhat we found at first were actually spilled kalongi spices.
Although they look identical to mice droppings, we did find a bag ofEthiopian kalongi spices in the store and saw it could be true.
Black Spice Can't Explain Rodent Droppings In Grocer's Corner
But that didn't explain what we found in the corner.
The owner acknowledged what we found in the corner was mice droppings.
She said she believed they had fallen of a store fixture that had beenmoved from where the infestation was prior to bringing in anexterminator.
She showed us that area had been cleaned top to bottom.
Malik's owner also showed us a copy of their recent visit from an exterminator.
All the businesses passed re-inspections prior to our visits and have reopened for business.

The Brevard Zoo welcomed a female Masai giraffe calf last week, just two weeks after a baby male giraffe was born.
This is the first time the zoo has had two giraffe births in the same month, according to zoo officials.
The female calf born to dad, Raffiki, and mom, Milenna, weighed in at 145 pounds. Mother and baby are bonding well and Milenna is proving to be a protective mother, officials said.
"Staff has introduced the two new calves and the male is more assertive and curious," said Michelle Smurl, director of the Animal and Conservation Programs at Brevard Zoo.
Milenna and calf will remain behind the scenes with Johari and her baby boy, born on Feb. 6, until it is determined by animal staff that the foursome is ready to mingle with the rest of the herd.

House on Cedar Hill
By Freshome.com - Interior Design & Architecture Magazine on Feb 09, 2012
Piercing the air with an impressive observation tower, this residential project is organized around a central stacked stone wall that acts as the building's spine. Measuring 182 feet long and 21 feet high, the impressive stone wall is visible from both the inside and the outside, creating a strong visual connection. Dallas-based Cunningham Architects designed the House On Cedar Hill and their talent is immortalized in the architectural details of this dream home. Named after its location in Cedar Hill, Texas, the 6,700 square foot contemporary residence is described by the architects: "A cantilevered concrete canopy serves as an interruption through the wall into and through the house, briefly allowing views through the dense brush of the site towards the open vista to the west.
As a counterpoint to the long, low house nestled within the native vegetation, the observation tower at the northern end of the house elevates the occupants above the tree tops. Magnificent views of several thousand acres of protected habitat, along with distant views of Dallas and Fort Worth make the tower a favorite perch. The east facing wall is a highly insulated load bearing masonry wall faced in native fieldstone. The mono-sloped roof is composed of 10″ SIPs on laminated wood beams, allowing 8′ long cantilevers over the west facing glazing. Simple slab on grade concrete floors are punctuated by inset end grain Mesquite wood zones. Natural pigmented cement plaster, other Texas woods, copper, slate and glass round out the material palette."

In other Sinch news, the band is in full swing on the road in the USA, currently touring with Epidemic - Seether will be joining the bill come the 18th. So what's life like on the road for Sinch right now? Let's look into their breakfast situation earlier this morning, as detailed by Jay Smith: "Well we didn't technically have breakfast. We went to a café called the Grateful Bean. We each had a smoothie and a cherry coke, except for Rick Dees (Ripper, their tour manager), he had a falling out with his father who was the inventor of the cherry flavor in the cherry coke, so he had a regular coke. "During our soda pop breakfast there was a woman playing 80's rock on the piano, I think she was blind, but she was playing it so they all sounded like ragtime blues. Mike (bass) got up and sang 'Look What The Cat Dragged In' by Poison in a kind of blues/lounge feel, it was amazing. I think he even made $3.50 in tips. Tomorrow we are off to Amarillo, but Jamie (vocals) still thinks we are in Kansas?" True? You make the call...
Time for you to check out another new Sinch track. Just uploaded a real audio stream of track 'Something More' for your listening pleasure. Check it out.

'Fifteen Ravine' was the name given by the Army to the shallow ravine, once bordered by fifteen trees, which ran at right angles to the railway about 800 metres south of the village of Villers-Plouich. The cemetery, sometimes called Farm Ravine Cemetery, was begun by the 17th Welsh Regiment in April 1917, a few days after the capture of the ravine by the 12th South Wales Borderers. It continued in use during the Battle of Cambrai (November 1917) and until March 1918, when the ravine formed the boundary between the Third and Fifth Armies. On 22 March, the second day of the great German offensive, the ground passed into their hands after severe fighting, and it was not regained until the end of the following September. In March 1918, the cemetery contained 107 graves (now Plot I), but it was greatly enlarged after the Armistice when graves were brought in from the battlefields south-west of Cambrai and other cemeteries.

Verizon Wireless recently released a statement on their website announcing that users would now be provided a more improved expansion of its FiOS DVR mobile applications. With immediate effect, Motorola Milestone Unlocked DROID phones would be capable of downloading and running the Remote FiOS TV Mobile application. Mobile phones such as the Droid Eris, Droid Incredible and TouchPro2 from HTC would now have the ability of acting as remote controls for their FiOS DVR televisions. It was also stated by Verizon that this remote DVR application could be run on over 50 different Verizon Wireless handsets. Through the use of this FiOS DVR application, users would have the ability of controlling their FiOS DVR, schedule recordings, check the TV guide as well as delete any old items present. These applications are completely free to download as well.
This free application has been made available by Verizon Wireless to users in the Android market. Through the use of this application, named Verizon FiOS Mobile, it becomes possible for users to go ahead and remotely program their FiOS DVRs through Wi-Fi carriers. In fact, it is also possible for users to browse different TV programs and view an entire list of schedules. While in the past the FiOS DVRs released by Verizon gave users the ability of watching whatever they wanted, it has now become much more accessible for mobile users to control their DVR's right through their mobile phone. This in turn results in Verizon customers never having to miss out on their favorite programs simply because they will now have the capability of recording their favorite television shows wherever they may be. With this latest development by Verizon, it becomes possible for users to set their DVRs to start recording any program, anytime.
Customers were always able to watch whatever they wanted due to Verizon FiOS DVRs. Now this has been taken a step forward through the implementation of an application for mobiles that allows users to program their DVRs for future recordings right from their unlocked mobile phones.
