Some more Fashion Week fun, Lovelies! I had a blast shooting with my bestie for Vespa's Style Book (HERE) in the midst of all the glam shows. It was a sweltering hot day in NYC so I chose a barely there halter, bright accessories and my favorite lace short-shorts. It paired perfectly with the classic black & white look that Christina was rockin'. Hope you're all having a fab week! Enjoy the sunshine!

For me ( and this is a biased opinion ) Farscape is absolutely one of the best if not finest space opera/fantasy show for last decade. Characters were written with a wonderful touch and played with amazing interpretation. Chemistry and interaction between characters are incredible. Character development is quite good. Not to mention best romance story I have ever seen in sci-fi genre. Farscape universe is crazy , funny , weird but also dangerous , gritty and sometimes dark. High production values also help a lot... Yes there are some stinker episodes like "Taking the Stone" or "A Prefect Murder" but that is not an exception in other successful sci-fi franchises either. And even those bad episodes add something to universe of Farscape , change the characters , outlook and merge with rest of series. They are not meaningless stand alones. (mostly)
I only regard two other series in same level with Farscape. Babylon 5 and Battlestar Galactica. They have different thames , plots , messages of course. But about orginality in sci-fi those three series are perfection for me.
You pretty much summed up my feelings about Farscape.

Dwdiff Shows Changes Word for Word
Version 1.3 of dwdiff, a free front-end for the Unix diff program has just been released and is now licensed under the GPLv3.
The command line program checks texts for changes word for word, whereas the legacy Unix tool diff takes a line-oriented approach. The user can define what dwdiff sees as whitespace between words. This distinguishes the program from wdiff, which also uses a word for word approach. Apart from this, dwdiff lets users set delimiter characters which the program also treats as words if they are not surrounded by blanks.
Version 1.3 has one new option that outputs a couple of lines a context on either side of a change. Another option displays the line numbers of the two compared files. At the same time, the GPLv3 replaces the Open Software License 2.0.
The dwdiff homepage has the source code of the program, Debian/Ubuntu packages and an RPM archive available for downloading. There are also ports for OpenBSD and FreeBSD and an ebuild script for Gentoo Linux.

As Catholic Online reported last week, a new astronomical discovery has the scientific community abuzz. Five more planets have been discovered around a star that closely resembles our sun. And at least one of them is within the star's "Goldilocks zone."

Keywords: Tau Ceti, planets, stars, life, SETI
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Hugh Jones of the University of Hertfordshire says he and his colleagues have discovered no less than five planets orbiting Tau Ceti, a star which is just 12 light-years away.
Tau Ceti is a sun-like star in the constellation Cetus, (the whale) and can been seen with the naked eye. What's more is astronomers studying the light from the star have detected five planets orbiting it. One of those is within the star's Goldilocks zone, a band of space around the star where liquid water could possibly exist.
This intrigues astronomers because liquid water is a prerequisite for life as we know it.
Tau Ceti has long been regarded as a hopeful place, since the star is so much like our sun and it is close to the Earth. In fact, scientists from the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence project (SETI) have listened in to the star repeatedly over the years hoping to detect signs of life there.
Unfortunately, their hopes are probably doomed. Although there are so many things right with the star, there is at least one thing wrong. The star is still surrounded by a substantial disk of stellar debris, much like our solar system was soon after its formation. We know from studying the formation of our solar system, this means that large asteroid impacts must be common on those planets.
Those impacts would almost certainly prevent intelligent and complex life from evolving since any life there would be destroyed with each periodic, cataclysmic impact. We know this because it's happened here on Earth. Tau Ceti has ten times more debris in orbit than our sun.
Ultimately, researchers have concluded that Tau Ceti isn't the kind of place where humans, or anyone else is likely to live. Still, it's amazing to see such wonders of creation in our cosmic backyard.

The diagnostic value of zinc transporter 8 autoantibody (ZnT8A) for type 1 diabetes in Chinese
ABSTRACT Zinc transporter-8 (ZnT8) was recently identified as a novel autoantigen in human type 1 diabetes (T1D). Autoantibody to ZnT8 (ZnT8A) was detected in up to 80% of patients with new-onset T1D and 26% of patients with T1D otherwise classified as negative on the basis of existing markers. As no data of ZnT8A in Chinese have been reported, we aim to evaluate the utility of ZnT8A for diagnosis of autoimmune T1D in Chinese relative to other autoantibody markers.
Radioligand binding assays were performed on 539 T1D sera using human ZnT8 carboxyterminal 325Arg construct or a dimer incorporating 325Arg and 325Trp alongside antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase (GADA) or insulinoma-associated protein 2 (IA-2A). The antigenic specificity was analysed in the context of clinical characteristics of the patients.
ZnT8A were present in 24.1% (130 of 539) of patients with T1D versus 1.8% (10 of 555; P < 0.001) in type 2 diabetes. At diagnosis, ZnT8A and IA-2A were less prevalent in Chinese subjects with T1D than in Caucasian populations (both P < 0.001) but similar to Japanese. The diagnostic sensitivity of combined GADA, IA-2A and ZnT8A measurements reached 65.5% with ZnT8A detected in 13.5% (29 of 215) of GADA and/or IA-2A-negative subjects. ZnT8A prevalence was lower in older and fatter patients. ZnT8A+ alone patients were distinguished from Ab- ones (P < 0.05-0.001) on the basis of higher insulin requirement and lower systolic blood pressure level.
ZnT8A is an independent marker for T1D in Chinese and combined with GADA and IA-2A enhances diagnostic sensitivity. ZnT8A may be associated with different clinical phenotypes than GADA or IA-2A.

Article: Variation of C peptide decay rate in diabetic patients with positive glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody: Better discrimination with initial fasting C peptide[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background Diabetic patients with positive glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GAD-Ab) could be classified as autoimmune diabetes, which is discriminated into acute-onset classical type 1 diabetes (T1DM) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA). However, whether the decay rate of beta cell function is relevant with the mode of onset (acute or latent-onset) is unclear. We aimed to investigate whether initial C peptide levels could help differentiate variation of C peptide decay rate. Methods Five hundred and twenty-seven newly diagnosed GAD-Ab positive diabetic patients were followed up to assess the natural course of beta cell function. Beta cell function failure was defined as fasting C peptide and postprandial C peptide levels less than 100 pmol/L and 150 pmol/L respectively. Results All these diabetic patients were discriminated according to initial fasting C peptide of 300 pmol/L, that is B+ (larger than 300 pmol/L) and B- (less than 300 pmol/L) group. The proportion of developing beta cell function failure was 13.1% in B+ group and 90.5% in B- group, which suggested that fasting C peptide levels made a good distinction of the heterogeneity in autoimmune diabetes. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis suggested that the fasting C peptide level of 300 pmol/L was optimal for determining beta cell function failure with sensitivity of 90.5% and specificity of 86.9%. Conclusions Initial level of fasting C peptide is a good indicator for predicting beta cell function failure in GAD-Ab positive diabetic patients.BMC Endocrine Disorders 03/2013; 13(1):10.

- "It has been recently defined as a major target of humoral autoimmunity in human T1D based on a bioinformatics analysis (Dang et al., 2011; Wenzlau et al., 2009). Autoantibodies to ZnT8 (ZnT8A) have been therefore detected in high prevalence in newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic patients (Yang et al., 2010) and obviously overlap with GADA, IA2A, and IAA (Wenzlau et al., 2007). Of note, ZnT8 autoimmunity could be an independent marker of T1D, given that ZnT8As can be present in antibody-negative individuals and in type 2 diabetes, and in patients with other autoimmune disorders (Wenzlau et al., 2008).

Article: Distinct Changes in Serum Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 Levels in Different Subtypes of Diabetes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 21 is an endocrine factor with multiple beneficial effects on glucose and lipid metabolism in animals. This study aimed to investigate the association of serum FGF21 levels with type 1 diabetes, latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and type 2 diabetes. Serum FGF21 levels were determined by ELISA in patients with type 1 diabetes (n = 76), LADA (n = 68), type 2 diabetes (n = 77), and their age- and sex-matched controls. The association of serum FGF21 with markers of autoimmunity was studied. In type 1 diabetic patients, serum FGF21 levels were significantly lower than controls [108.3 (61.5-180.1) vs. 196.0 (103.7-330.9) pg/ml, P < 0.001]. In LADA patients, serum FGF21 levels were significantly lower than controls after adjustment for body mass index [210.9 (121.4-441.6) vs. 268.3 (159.5-443.6) pg/ml, P = 0.003]. By contrast, serum FGF21 levels in type 2 diabetic patients were significantly higher than controls [381.2 (244.7-531.3) vs. 301.4 (173.9-444.2) pg/ml, P = 0.006]. FGF21 levels increased progressively from type 1 diabetes, LADA, to type 2 diabetes (P < 0.001 for global trend). Furthermore, FGF21 levels correlated inversely with titers of glutamic acid decarboxylase and insulinoma-associated protein 2 autoantibodies in type 1 diabetic and LADA patients. Serum FGF21 level is increased in type 2 diabetes but decreased in type 1 diabetes and LADA. In autoimmune diabetes, the reduction in circulating FGF21 is closely associated with markers of pancreatic β-cell autoimmunity.The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism 01/2012; 97(1):E54-8.

This video right here, this one, is going to make you never want to stay at home on a Thursday night when you can be going out to some wild events. Even better if it's a GGW hosted event. This long-legged brunette is one of the wildest we've seen in a while. She completely owned that dance floor within a few seconds of stepping in. Sure, we've seen lots of girls dancing before, but rarely is she as skilled as this babe. When you're done seeing the clip, all you're going to say to yourself is: I want one. So much happens in this video, so pay attention to all of the little details: the way her sexy, perky tits pop out. Her tight, round ass poking out from beneath her plaid skirt. And of course, the way she moves those hips and legs. The crowd was left speechless, and so were we.
While in Vegas, we met up with these two blonde girls who were so playful they wanted to wrestle and get each other naked. We were in the hotel room filming and before you know it, they were stripping each other's clothes off and rolling around on the floor giggling. How far do they go and do they try some girl on girl fun? You'll have to check out the full scene in the GGW Member's area.

The most shocking place I have ever stayed at. Whole place reeks of mold; exposed wiring; kitchen was just filth - there were more dead cockroaches in kitchen than actual people staying here. Room got flooded during the night - it was like been in the Bahamas, with the water next to your feet... TV in the room was just a box, with no antenna. Police came twice in one night, people arguing, smoking pot, loud music. The 'people' behind reception couldnt care less - you could see that they have never heard of the term 'customer service' before!!! HOWEVER, if you want to get sick and have a sleepless night, then i highly recommend this place.

Apple begins selling unlocked iPhone 4S
By Jim Karpen on Sat, 11/12/2011
Yesterday Apple began selling an unlocked version of the iPhone 4S. That means that you can use it with any carrier, and you don't need to sign a contract. But it will cost you: prices start at $649 for the 16GB phone. You can also buy an unlocked iPhone 4 for $549 and a 3GS for $375. However, the unlocked phones will only work with GSM carriers, such as AT&T and T-Mobile in the U.S.

Christy Nockels - By Our Love - Popular Christian Videos
Embed bobmarshall 4119 views 2010-10-02T01:24:20 Probably one of the prettiest songs I've ever heard. Christy Nockels (formerly of the group Watermark) wrote it, and she is accompanied on keyboards by her husband Nathan. Sort of an updated version of the old Christian praise song "And They'll Know We Are Christians". From the marvelous CD "Life Light Up".

What did i do wrong to this poor Brisket Flat?
I tired my first brisket flat this weekend. I trimmed all the fat off the flat, marainated it over night, rubbed it, and then smoked it at 200-225 for 3 hours, wrapped it foranother 1.5 hours. Meat had a nice flavor, nice smoke ring, however was CHEWY. Thanks in advance!!!!!
200-225 is awfully low. You may have needed more time. Did you probe for tenderness before pulling it?
Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express
My guess is it needed to cook longer, until it was probe tender... Cheers!!!
I'm gonna have to go with what the others said. You probably need a couple more hours. You should try to go by look and feel, not time.
Agree with above. Even with a small flat, I don't think you could have gotten to 195-200* after 4.5 hours at 200-225*.
THE first thing you Farked up is> removing the the fat. Fat it keeps the meat moist and adds flavor and bastes the brisket as it cooks.
THE second thing you Farked up> cooking it at such a low temp. Flats do best from 250-275
THE third thing you Farked up> is not paying attention so for your benefit I'll kick the dead pony one more time, "YOU CAN NOT COOK GREAT BBQ BY COOKING IT TO AN INTERNAL TEMP OR BY COOKING BY XXX MIN PER LB." Probe tender is the only reliable method to ensure the proper time to pull for maximum tenderness"!
Sounds like it was undercooked like the other folks mentioned.
Here are 2 excellent links.
I stay away from flats I always cook points. They are harder to fark up.
Thanks Everyone! I will try again this weekend with above tips and post results! Thanks to everyone who posted helpful tips for the newbie!
A tip on reading a slice of brisket...and it can be a little tricky when you just barely miss the mark. But, when you want to understand what happened, here is what you do.
1. Slice a piece that is the thickness of a standard pencil, 1/4" thick. Drape it over your finger, if it bends into a U, then you at least got it done, if not over done. If it does not bend into a U, or it bends into a wide V, then you didn't get it there. This will always be the first indicator.
2. Take said slice, hold it by the ends, about 1/8" in your fingers, turn it so the slice is vertical and pull, slowly and with very little pressure. If it tears right away, or tears as soon as you turn it vertical, then it is over done. This will always be the case. If it takes more than a few seconds to tear, or slips from your finger, then it is under done. This will always be the case. A properly done peice of brisket will stretch for a couple of seconds, then slowly tear, you can see the connective tissue stretch slightly then it will shear.
3. Bite the slice, if the bite meets immediate resistance, and the meat has to be torn, then it is under done, this will always be the case. If you bite, and your teeth sheer the meat into shards, or the meat crumbles under your teeth, it is over done, again, it will always be the case. A properly done slice, once your teeth start to touch, the meat will part in a clean bite, there will be no need to pull or tear the meat, nor will it simply fall apart.
Those three tells on texture will tell you where you went wrong with the cooking time. The amount of moisture in the meat is not a good way to tell, neither is the internal temperature. Sometimes, a brisket just does not have a lot of moisture, you can never rely on internal temperature, by checking with a probe, then corresponding the end result with the probe feel, you will develop a touch for brisket.
Lots of good points, watch this

what I've been eating
Turkey Soup: Remember the big pot of collards I made last week? Well I took the leftover cooking liquid and simmered some chopped up vegetables (2 teeny tiny potatoes, carrots, celery, and okra) until tender and then added in all the turkey meat I shredded off the wing that also had cooked with the collards. I added some parsley too. It made a really nice soup that we've been having a cup of with dinner for the past few days.
Apricot Glazed Lamb Chops: This is so easy it's almost criminal. The hardest part is going to the store and finding some apricot preserves that are made with all fruit and no sugar. Once you have your preserves in hand, mix 1/4 cup of them with 1/2 tsp ground ginger. Take enough lamb chops for two people and coat with half the preserves. Broil 5 minutes. Flip, coat with other half of preserves, and broil 5 more minutes. Ta da! Here is a picture of that dinner:
Also on the plate are a simple carrot salad (shredded carrots with parsley and olive oil vinaigrette) and some braised mustard greens with shallots, white wine, and celery.
Skirt Steak with Beer: This one isn't technically paleo, but it was pretty awesome. If you're going to be unpaleo, this is the way to do it. I marinated skirt steak for 24 hours in a mix of wheat-free soy sauce, rosemary, garlic, mustard, worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and dark lager beer (thus negating the wheat-free soy sauce but oh well). Sear it to death in a skillet so it has a nice crust but is medium rare in the center. Yum yum. I think we had it with the turkey soup and a raw fennel salad.
Pork Breakfast Sausage: I finally got around to making sausage for my husband to take to work so he's not eating all the crap that is in the breakfast meat available at his office. It's just ground pork with various seasonings that make it taste like sausage (key ingredient: sage). It's really good. I'll do a proper write-up on it soon. We've been having that for breakfast this week along with blueberries and walnuts.
Apple Fritter Things: I have these in the oven right now and I'm not sure how they're going to turn out. It's shredded apples held together with ground flax seeds and an egg and flavored with lemon zest/juice and cinnamon. You bake them first and then turn the oven heat really low to kind of dehydrate them. They're still in the oven right now. If they turn out any good I'll post the recipe this week.
Fruit Salad: Blueberries have been on sale so we're eating them a lot! I have hit upon my favorite combination of fruits for fruit salad: Pears and blueberries with cinnamon and lime juice. Heaven in a bowl! We also had cantaloupe and blueberries with lime juice and it was pretty good too. The lime juice really has an affinity for the blueberries, I think. I picked up something called "blossom water" at the store today that smells like flowers - I think it might be good on fruit salad too. Maybe rose water would also work! Hmmm...
That's it for tonight. Happy eating!

Hey Elizabeth,
The beer steak combo might not be paleo, but it supposedly does it a world of good. Check out Chris's blog www.conditioningresearch.blogspot.com
He did a post on it a while ago, and from there I made a dark lager stew and it was outrages.
Have a great day.

National Geographic to auction famous photos, artBreaking News
NEW YORK (AP) — National Geographic Society has chronicled scientific expeditions, explorations, archaeology, wildlife and world cultures for more than 100 years, amassing a collection of 11.5 million photos and original illustrations.
A small selection of that massive archive — 240 pieces spanning from the late 1800s to the present — will be sold at Christie's in December at an auction expected to bring about $3 million, the first time any of the institution's collection has been sold.
Among the items are some of National Geographic's most indelible photographs, including that of an Afghan girl during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, a portrait of Admiral Robert Peary at his 1908 expedition to the North Pole, a roaring lion in South Africa and the face of a Papua New Guinea aborigine....

Did our review for this title help you decide to do any of the following?
Submitted by johnwilliams on
Jump to navigation
Parents need to know that while HowStuffWorks for iPad covers mature themes -- violence, sex, racial issues, alcohol, drugs, and smoking -- it's a trusted educational resource that handles the subject matter responsibly. That said, moms and dads will need to decide whether they want their young kids accessing this information. Versions of the app are also available for the iPhone and Android phones.
Gives teens immediate access to a wealth of knowledge, offering incredible breadth and depth of topics. Free, ad-supported app a gem. Shows and video podcasts load quickly and run smoothly.
Learning happens via the massive collection of articles, videos, and audio podcasts, 40,000 strong. Users can gain meaningful understanding of concepts due to excellent presentation and depth of topics.
Bits of interactivity in the form of quizzes, but more would be better. Every article lets users tag it as a favorite and share it (through email, Facebook, or Twitter) or wirelessly print the piece.
HowStuffWorks for iPad is a huge and reliable resource on -- yep, you guessed it -- how stuff works. It covers virtually every topic, from technology and spirituality to cooking and investing to science and automotive information. Similar to the website but easier to navigate, the app allows users to simply use their fingertip to select the desired subject matter and article of interest. Kids can also watch videos, listen to audio podcasts, and take quizzes that test what they've learned.
HOWSTUFFWORKS -– already a popular and trusted Web resource and TV series -- is now optimized for the iPad. Use your fingertips to swipe through more than 40,000 articles -- ranging from "Five home repairs you should know how to do" to "How great white sharks work" -- along with many thousands of videos, podcasts, quizzes, fast facts, famous quotes, and more.
This collection of diverse topics should also be a goldmine for students. Every article lets you tag it as a favorite, adjust font size, share it (through email, Facebook, or Twitter) or wirelessly print the piece. Shows and video podcasts, which can play full-screen (but not in high-definition), load quickly and run smoothly -- but as you'd expect, a fast online connection is required to view this content. Internet access (3G or Wi-Fi) is also needed for articles. Those who'd like to have immediate access to a wealth of knowledge, offering incredible breadth and depth, will find this free, ad-supported app a gem.
Encourage kids to write their own mock HowStuffWorks article on a subject matter they're knowledgeable in, or help them research and fact-check information.
Monitor young kids' use of the app. Some info might not be appropriate for them, as topics include drugs, lock-picking, sex, and real-world violence (such as serial killers).

These critiques discuss the contemporary commodification of all things Afropolitan in mainstream pop culture and its effects on Africa and Africans. One only has to look on social media to see the
We just had another argument. I was getting tired of this. I stomped up to my room and resisted the urge to slam my door; despite my rage, my African home training restrained me from acting out.
I am convinced that we would be better served by a more expansive view of our capacity for mutual self-help. More than ever before, our collective interests call for an ethos of reciprocity-- one that presupposes that Africans and members of "the African Diaspora" are just as invested in the well-being of African descended people throughout the world as they are in the development of Africa.
History teaches us that the concept of African Diaspora is complex and evolving, with practical implications for how resources are deployed to improve conditions of life, within and outside the African continent. For instance, reflecting a view from the academy, Colin Palmer, the Jamaican-born historian, cites evidence of mass movements of human beings within and outside Africa dating back some 100,000 years, and observes that, "[to] study early humankind is, in effect, to study [the African] diaspora."
Palmer argues that this "early African exodus," and the one that was spurred much later on by Arab slave traders and African slaves, soldiers, musicians, nurses, and adventurers bound for Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, comprise just two of at least four identifiable diasporic movements from the African continent to-date.
The antiquity era of voluntary and forced migrations of Africans from East, Central, and Southern Africa across the Indian Ocean to Asia and the Middle East is rarely considered or talked about in connection with "the African Diaspora." And yet this massive movement out of Africa, conservatively estimated to exceed 4 million people, lasted some 20 centuries. Today, Africa's cultural influence and African descendant peoples are evident across the Indian Ocean world--in countries such as India, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Yemen, and Sri Lanka.
In more recent times, especially in the Americas and throughout the Caribbean, the term "African Diaspora" has most often been associated with the roughly estimated 11 million people from West, West-Central, and Southeastern Africa, and their descendants, dispersed during the trans-Atlantic slave trade that lasted some 400 years. This is the culturally diverse Atlantic Ocean diaspora whose members collectively struggled against racially codified slavery and race-based oppression, maintain a collective sense of solidarity, and share an emotional bond with Africa.
Taking on yet another dimension, the 21st century "African Diaspora," encompasses the voluntary streams of migration, between countries within, and to countries outside, the African continent. By most estimates, roughly 31 million African emigres made their way to Europe and the Americas over the last two or so decades.
This Diaspora includes people desperately seeking escape from intractable poverty and political repression in their home countries--such as the victims aboard the overcrowded boats that capsized off the coast of Lampedusa--as well as more educated and prosperous Africans whose migration is facilitated by family, professional, and other connections.
Latching onto this most recent diasporic trend, the African Union defines "the African Diaspora" as "peoples of African Origin...irrespective of citizenship and nationality" who live outside of Africa and are committed to contributing to African development and building the AU. This is an exclusive definition. It does not include all people of African descent. Only those working explicitly on behalf of the AU and Africa.
One could argue that the AU's functional definition is appropriately tailored to its mission and priorities. The reality though, is that many, if not most, of us fit within multiple overlapping African Diasporas. We have identities and commitments that transcend cultural, national, and even continental boundaries. And this is a trend that will continue along with the geographical dispersion of people who trace their heritage to the African continent.
It is also a fact that, around the world disproportionate numbers of Africans and people of African descent lack resources and opportunities necessary to improve their wellbeing, and are disproportionately impacted by the global phenomenon of escalating income inequality. How we acquire our birth heritage is beyond our control. But for the most fortunate amongst us, how our birth heritage influences our attitudes and actions is largely a matter of choice.
In this sense "the African Diaspora" can serve simply as a means of group identification--or to signal group commitment to a larger cause. We can adopt the Jay Z perspective that, whether or not we do anything concrete to alleviate the struggles of people less fortunate than ourselves, our own material success and "presence," wherever that might happen to be, "is enough" to give hope to the downtrodden.
We can answer the AU's call to devote all our energies to African development. Or, recognizing our shared humanity, and that our privileged status derives from the suffering and sacrifices of previous generations scattered across the globe, at different times for different reasons, we can pursue our mutual enlightened self-interest, and pay our debt forward, by somehow contributing to the well-being of Africa and "the African Diaspora," in all its diversity within and beyond the Africa.

... carpet floor as well as an assortment of LA locals, yes China Air is budget all the way. We had roughly 24 hours in LA before a connecting flight the next day onward to NYC. We arrived at a hotel about 4km from LAX, showered and thought we would get a few hours sleep before exploring a few areas of LA in the afternoon and evening. Little did we know how jet lagged we were and we slept until 8 pm and missed any chance of afternoon ...
Los Angeles, here we come!
... on the plane at their seats. We are flying United Airlines for this leg and it appears they are strict and appear to enforce the allowed "carry on luggage size" so it seems less of an issue. Very smooth sailing and after about 15 minutes after entering the airport, we were checked in and were rid of our suitcases!! We then headed in the direction we were told to go, towards our gate lounge which was gate C96!!! For some reason we seem to always be at the very end of ...
Stafford to Los Angeles
... out! Saturday was spent queueing... a lot! The flight was just over 11hrs long, but went ok - mainly due to the very clever back-of-seat consoles we had. There was plenty of choice of films, TV shows and games to keep us all amused. Jenny watched Gravity, and Divergent. Beth watched Divergent too, and also Jurassic Park and half ...
Oh Inglewood!
... strange men, drunks at the bar and the sour puss transvestite that was scowling and hiding the free cookies behind the counter. We left the prying eyes and found our room. Opening the broken door our first impression was another traveler that had wet her pants and was lying down on her bed talking on a phone with her legs in the air. We then met an American woman in our 20 bunk room who was staying there while looking for a flat in LA, and noticing we were not ...
Cruising around CalifornYA!

We visited Universal Studios, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, The Observatory, Santa Monica, Muscle beach & Venice beach. Not all of the these places were quite what I expected, Hollywood was far from being pristine and full of celebs, instead full of tat shops and wanna be wrappers trying to push "FREE" copies of their ...

"Our family had a wonderful time at the smoky mountain cabin. There was plenty of room and even with 3 generations everyone was comfortable. We had a great Thanksgiving holiday and we were even blessed with just enough snow to make it picturesque outside. The owners had covered most details and the kitchen was pretty well equipped. We hope to come back in the summer, it seems like there would be a lot of interesting things to do. Thanks to the owners (and caretaker) for their timely responses to all of our questions and concerns regarding the cabin. Even without cable and internet the teenagers had a great time, we brought games, movies and thoroughly entertained each other. Thanks again!!!!!"Guest: GA Peach Date of Stay: November 2014 Review Submitted: January 9, 2015View listing
"My husband and I had a lovely weekend at High Rock View. Matthew was very accommodating and the whole cabin was well appointed with thoughtful touches and instructions. The road in was shockingly steep, but we drove a hyundai accent up there no problem and it is by no means a strong car. And yes, there were lots of ladybugs, but the 'ladybug pickup' dustbuster was a perfect solution. The hot tub was perfect and the view was breathtaking. It was a wonderful relaxing weekend for the two of us. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!"Guest: Ali Date of Stay: November 2014 Review Submitted: December 6, 2014View listing

"I couldn't have possibly enjoyed my stay more! Wicklow Woods was enchanting. I had lunches on the patio with sweet Emma and Mason, fed the super friendly goats and the donkeys, and sat on the dock and read a book. The people in Andrews were friendly and I recommend you stop by the Burger Basket and Corner Coffee. Also Robin provided a "secret" scenic driving tour that was absolutely wonderful. Everyone should take this drive. The kitchen was more than functional, but keep in mind there is no toaster. The queen size bed is firm, but not too firm. I would definitely go back and stay again. This is a much better value than a hotel, and you can't beat the view! Perfect for couples, or single travelers like myself."Guest: Jennifer Y.
