The second apartment consists of 3 bright and spacious floors, contrasting the restored historical features of the house with all the luxuries of a new renovation. Hard-wood floors and exposed stone work can be seen throughout the house. On the second floor you will find an ample living room, a new eat-in kitchen and a spacious new bathroom with a walk-in shower. The house's original stone hearth has been preserved and incorporated into the new kitchen. It's fully-equipped with range, oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, washing machine, coffee maker and all the cookware, cutlery, etc needed for preparing home-cooked meals. The living room, featuring original stone alcoves, is furnished with a large sofa that converts into a queen bed for 2 persons, a large dining table which expands to seat 10 persons, and a flat-screen high definition television along with wireless internet access. Take the stairs up to the next floor of the house and you will find two bedrooms. One bedroom has a queen size bed as well as a sofa that converts into an individual bed, while the master bedroom features a king-size bed. Enjoy the view of the Cathedral from the windows! Go up one more floor and you will find a sunny loft, with a divan as well as two individual beds that can be placed together for couples. Curl up on the divan with a good book, or peep out of the skylight for unparalleled views of the Cathedral and rooftops of Santiago de Compostela!
Situated in the heart of the monumental district on the lively Rua Nova – just step outside the house and you will be enveloped in the history of the city. Follow the way of St. James to it's final destination: the renowned pilgrimage site of the Catedral de Santiago. Wander the lively stone streets under arcades and through enchanting passageways, through beautiful parks and secluded cloisters, to discover the many wonders of the city. As you go for a stroll you can enjoy typical music of the region offered by musicians on the surrounding streets and plazas. An amazing array of restaurants, cafes, shops, museums, markets are just outside the door! And if you fancy a day trip, Galicia offers destinations galore: from exploring big cities and charming towns, to trekking through mountain trails and virgin forests, visiting solitary lighthouses atop dramatic sea-side cliffs or soaking in the sun on the coast's unspoilt beaches – you can have it all within a half hour's drive.
Everything is within easy walking distance - restaurants, cafes, bars, supermarkets, museums, and all the sights are just outside the door and bus, taxi, and train are all close-by. If you're driving, you can request our parking garage spot for 7€ / night - it's located just a few minutes' walk from the apartment beside Plaza Galicia. Spanish, English, German, Slovene and some French are spoken - and all inquiries are welcome!
Smaller parties can rent just the first floor apartment for up to 4 people, larger parties can rent the upstairs apartment for up to 10 people, and renting the whole house is the most spacious option for a maximum of 14 people. When making an inquiry, please state your dates, number of guests and which apartment (or the whole house) you're interested in renting so that we can get back to you with availability and an exact price quote.TripAdvisor property ID 3947124 ...Read more

"Wow! Could not have asked or expected more"
We stayed in the apartment for 12 days and 11 nights in mid July. It was above and beyond what we expected and we had a wonderful stay. It was so easy to book and Sonia (the owner) was so helpful in helping us plan how to get there from the airport as well as other useful information. When we arrived we didn't have any difficulties in obtaining the key and we found the apartment well equiped and contained everything that we needed to make our stay more comfortable.
Other guests have commented on the stairs - there are 104 in total as we counted them!! After a few days though they do get easier and don't let them put you off booking this apartment. It is in a prime location, literally just up the street from the Sol metro stop and everything was within walking distance. There was virtually no noise from the street below and we felt very safe at all times around the apartment even at 3am.
The heat in July was bedtween 35 and 40 degrees c however as a fan was made available we soon realised that we could place this in the living area which had the aircon unit and it kept our room cool at night. Another tip is to keep the bedroom windows and blinds down in the daytime! We had no difficulty sleeping or keeping cool.
We certainly would book the apartment again as it is exceptionally reasonable in price and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

"We had a blast! Very nice place & so central right by Puerto Del"
So we loved Madrid. We loved just about everything about it, including this apartment. The apartment is just about 3 blocks away from the Puerto Del Sol and Gran Via. It also seems to be about 3 blocks away from everything - not really, but everything you want to see in Madrid is within walking distance: the Prado, the Palace, Plaza Mayor, Retiro Park, and all the wonderful sights of this amazing city.
Back to the apartment: luckily I'm a bit of a gym-rat, so the stairs weren't too bad for me until about the third day, and by then it seemed that those "5 flights" are more like 8 with the landings as it's an old building. My 5-year-old didn't care, my 16-year-old did, but teenagers...what are you going to do. It's also a bit warm in the apartment and Madrid was having a very warm May, I don't know how hot it would be in summer - but probably pretty hot - especially in the bedroom - because it doesn't have an air-conditioning unit in it
note to tall people: My husband is 6' 3" and every time we left the apartment he hit his head on the light fixture (which gave us a very saying "Mi Braino No Bueno"!). Everyone one of us, from my son at 4 1/2 feet to my husband hit their heads on the ceiling beams - we learned very quickly.
The good: We happened to hit Madrid during the festival of San Ysidro (the patron saint of Madrid), so after watching fireworks in Retiro Park the first night we watched them the 2nd night from the terrace. The kids had a nice area and my son loved people-watching from the terrace and then eating at 11pm!
All in all, we would stay again. It was a blast, and so close to everything. We only took the Metro once, and that was when my shoe broke - but no worries there are a zillion shoe stores in Madrid.
It's all about location, location, location - where it's located makes those stairs seem like a fabulous memory and those bumps on the head no worries!!! Awww...I wish I were there right now!

"Stairway to Heaven"
We knew that it was a five flight walk-up to the apartment so there were no surprises. But the small effort was well worth it.
The lead up to our arrival was absolutely hassle free. Emails were answered promptly and Sonia's detailed advice on getting to the apartment from the airport made the journey a breeze.
When we arrived Sonia left us with a wealth of info on the Sol area with tips on where to shop, eat, visit and of course, sip a drink or two.The apartment was fantastic. Everything was just as the photos depicted. To have the option of cooking for ourselves is always important and the well equipped kitchen allowed us to do this on a couple of nights. The terrace was certainly the deal maker for us. Whilst not overly large, it gave that little bit of extra space to unwind after taking in a days wandering around Madrid. The sloping ceiling was a minor inconvenience.
Sol seemed to be the heart of the city and the apartment was within easy walking distance of most major attractions.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Sonia's apartment to visitors to Madrid.

"Great pad in Madrid!"
Loved our stay at Sonia's place. Amazing location! Really enjoyed the terrasse & lots of windows. The internet connection was flawless. Sonia was so accomodating letting us leave our bags early the morning of our arrival so we could be free to sightsee before the apartment was ready for check in. Would recommend this place to anyone who is not scared of 5 flights of stairs! Helps work off all the good food!

"The best location for a foreign traveler!"
Loved this appartment!
The location is great. I could walk to Puerta Del Sol, all the shops on Fuencaral, restaurants and the parks. It was perfect for someone new to the city. My host, Ms. Sonia Torreira was very kind in suggesting evening entertainment and day-time sight-seeing.
The apartment is clean, comfortable and the view from the balcony is to be remembered! I especially enjoyed having my coffee out there and experiencing the buzzing city life below me...the six flights of stairs were a welcome excersice after all the good food in Madrid! l would highly recommend spending your vacation there!

"Great location"
You are centrally located in the heart of Madrid with stores, cafes and main tourist attractions all around you. Apartment is spacious and so very convenient! Sleeps 4 comfortably and having access to a washer is a welcome treat while on vacation.
Only drawback is climbing the stairs

McGowan was born to American parents in Florence, Italy, on Sept. 5, 1973. Her father headed the local Children of God cult (also known as The Family) and McGowan spent her early years living on the group's rural commune.

Bradford stabbing teen's identity 'will not be made public'
The identity of the teenager convicted of stabbing a teacher at a Bradford school will not be made public, the judge in the case has ruled.
Judge Jonathan Durham Hall QC branded the 14-year-old a "dangerous young offender", but rejected an application for his identity to be made public.
Judge Hall said the 14-year-old's "welfare must come first and the public interest must give way".
The boy was sentenced to an 11-year extended sentence, which includes six years in custody and a further five years on licence, for the racially motivated attack.
Bradford attack teenager 'arrogant, anti-social bully'
The judge presiding in the case of a 14-year-old convicted of stabbing a supply teacher at a Bradford school, said the defendant was an "out of control, arrogant, antisocial bully, disrespectful of authority".
The judge said: "You went to your school armed with a knife intending to stab your teacher. You boasted about it before, you boasted about it after, when you had stabbed him."
The teenager had bragged about the stabbing in a post on Facebook, which received 69 'likes', something the judge termed "an appalling reflection on a small microcosm of our society".
The prosecution said the attack had been at least partially racially motivated and that the teenager had "freely referred" to teacher Vincent Uzomah using racist terminology.
The boy was sentenced to 11 years at Bradford Crown Court on Monday.

Police knew who dropped cigarette that 'started Bradford City fire'
Police who investigated the 1985 Bradford City fire knew who dropped the cigarette thought to have started the deadly blaze, a new documentary claims.
Retired Detective Inspector Raymond Falconer said officers worked out that an Australian man called Eric Bennett, who has since died, accidentally started the fire that killed 56 people.
A decision was taken at the time not to release his name, Mr Falconer told the BBC documentary - Missed Warnings: the Bradford City Fire.
Mr Falconer said: "He was obviously troubled. And I felt extremely sorry for him. And this would be weighing on his mind for the rest of his life."
The official inquiry into the tragedy on May 11 1985 concluded that it was an accident and was probably started by a spectator dropping a cigarette into rubbish that had accumulated under an old timber stand.
The documentary will be shown on BBC One in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire tonight at 22.45pm and on BBC Two nationally at 23:20pm tomorrow.

Half-time: FA Cup quarter final - Bradford 0-0 Reading
Chris Dawkes at Valley Parade
The last time Bradford City were in the quarter finals of the FA Cup was in 1976 and the Valley Parade pitch was like a throwback to those times.
Needless to say the opening exchanges were scrappy with neither side able to put any meaningful passing moves together on the uneven surface.
The crowd at least were lively even though the football wasn't with City fans encouraged to bring their scarfs to the game to create a unique sea of claret and amber around 3 sides of the ground.
Both sides were guilty of committing a number of needless fouls which interrupted the flow of the game and it wasn't until 24th minute when Jamie Mackie's cross come shot was deflected into the arms of Ben Williams that either side remotely came close to opening the scoring.
However just 2 minutes later Mackie again burst free down the right. His cut back was controlled by Pavel Pobrebnyak, but the big Russian's shot rebounded off the post and bounced to safety.
10 minutes later it was Bradford's turn to scrape the paint off the woodwork - Gary Liddle's cross evading everyone but the post once again denying the opening goal.
It remained goalless until the referee signalled the end of the first 45 minutes. In a half with very few goalmouth incident posts at either end denied both Bradford and Reading the advantage in this quarter final.

Just curious - weight gain
Comments (3)
I gained 54 lbs with my baby :/ it was more then the drs "wanted" (since you're supposed to stay within the 25-35 range), but my baby was beautiful and healthy..and my labor was really easy, and very fast (about 5 hrs)... so screw the drs lol good luck and don't worry about the weight!
I gained 65 pounds with my first son- I was a little underweight, but I must say I def. took advantage of the whole "eating for two" thing! It was a lot more than I was supposed to, but just like agranados0518 my baby was perfect and healthy and my labor was easy- I only pushed for an hour. I lost all but 5 pounds doing the Southbeach diet afterwards. Now I am due at the end of April and have probably gained about 12 pounds so far. I feel like I am on a better track this time around, but the holidays are coming up! I would say as long as you are comfortable and making healthy choices (sometimes!) then just enjoy your pregnancy and don't stress about the weight. We only do this a few times (most of us!) so make the most of it!

Expecting #2: It's a Boy! Graham- due April 21, 2012!:)
Mommy to Fur Baby Bentley:)
Hello =) I'm due in April as well (21st) and I've gained approx 8-10. My doctor hasn't given me any guidelines as to her expectations or wishes for how much i'm to gain. I've simply allowed weight to be one of the things i least worry about =) and focus on eating healthy foods and a small slightly unhealthy craving every now and then, is ok! I was addicted to fries during week 2-4, i should have known i was pregnant, ha! Also, I'm vegetarian so i have to watch some intakes like protien. As long as your taking prenatels and eating healthy with mix of fruit veggies etc. I think you're perfect =) my close friend told me to 'embrace the baby belly' and that helps me... take good care!

Re: ROMULUS IN MIND MELD '09
King Daniel Into Darkness wrote:
IIRC, Abrams says in the commentary that he was tinkering with the mind meld scene right up until 2 weeks prior to the film's theatrical release. That's the reason there are a few discontinuities between Countdown and the movie (in the movie, Romulus is destroyed while Spock is en route, in the comic it happened before he had even launched)
There's also an early script at IMSDB (
), where Spock deliberately opens a second black hole, intentionally travelling back in time to try and save Romulus. It talks about the supernova being an "untreated cancer" that would "destroy everything" and that Nero was on a mission to prevent Spock from stopping the supernova, believing that if Romulus was allowed to die, all planets should share its fate.
Add to that, the first draft of Countdown apparently featured the destruction of Earth as well as Romulus, and it was apparently only through the intervention of Cryptic (whose Star Trek Online videogame plans would have totally ruined by mass destruction in the Alpha Quadrant) that the destruction was scaled back somewhat. More details here:
With all those changes, I'm not surprised the final version came out a little jumbled.
King Daniel. I apologize. I just saw your line about the script I don't know how I read over that, or maybe because I was on a break at work while reading it as well as eating at the same time I wasn't paying close enough attention. I went and read the script online. it does say the supernova originally happened and spock witnessed the beginning of it, and then discussions were had about what to do, untreated cancer... etc. so thanks a lot for helping me clear that up. it really bothered me for a while! I honestly think this movie is so much fun and one of my favorite trek films. im not afraid to say it. the science is no worse than any other trek film. in fact, I would argue the genesis in WOK is far worse than some crazy supernova that has the ability to destroy the galaxy. thanks to everyone who put in their 2 cents.

Texas WR Cayleb Jones to transfer
Texas wide receiver Cayleb Jones is transferring. The school announced Jones' transfer in a release on Wednesday night.
"We've talked to the Jones family and realize this was a very difficult decision," said coach Mack Brown in a statement. "Cayleb is looking for a fresh start, and we understand that and are appreciative of everything he did for Texas. We will support him as he moves forward and wish him the best of luck in the future."
Jones' father, Robert Jones, issued a statement of his own.
"We've really enjoyed being a part of the Texas program," said Robert Jones, a former Dallas Cowboy linebacker. "But we've talked about the situation as a family and we think it's best for Cayleb to get a fresh start and transfer to another school."
Although Texas has granted Jones' unconditional release, it's unknown which school "another school" will be.
What we do know is that Jones -- along with Kendall Sanders -- had been suspended for Texas' season opener against New Mexico State. Jones was charged with felony assault in in March for allegedly breaking the jaw of a Texas tennis player who was dating his former girlfriend.
Jones appeared in 12 games as a freshman last season, catching two passes for 35 yards. He also rushed for 10 yards on one carry.

Revo AXiS
DAB, iPod interface, easy streaming, colourful touchscreen
Small room/desk only, wraparound speaker design
It looks like a simple bedside clock radio, but underneath the AXiS' soft black plastic shell are more features than you've a right to expect in a gadget aimed at bedside tables.
Inside are tuners for FM and digital radio - both DAB and DAB+ - with the latter giving much-needed future-proofing, as well as Europe-wide versatility,
The major surprise is a built-in wireless module, which is able to tune in to your wireless home network and stream content from any networked PC or Mac. The ability to play 13,000+ internet radio stations will have wide appeal among those with a niche interest, such as ex-pats after foreign radio stations (Yanks are extremely well served with almost 50 stations) to musos after a particular strand of music (country music fans form a line).
The majority of those with mainstream British tastes will be amply served by stations available either on DAB or FM; go for a more basic DAB radio and the savings are considerable. The key attraction on the AXiS is that these - and other - services are particularly well managed.
That's largely down to the 3.5-inch colour touchscreen, which neatly presents nine icons for Internet radio, DAB, iPod, Streaming audio, Auxiliary input, FM radio, Last.fm, Alarms and Settings.
Choose iPod and it's possible to control menus and select playlists, with cover art and a progress bar displayed for each song.
Playing music from an iPod is a cinch, though the interface to control it isn't the best - a remote would make navigating the internal menus a lot easier. Sadly there isn't one in the box, and though for a unit that's clearly designed for a bedside table or desk it's a forgiveable omission, we'd recommend buying the optional credit card-sized remote for a further £9.95.
Finding the network instantly, we had the AXiS playing tunes from a Mac on the same network relatively quickly, though the system did occasionally stall. In our tests both MP3 and FLAC files were streamed.
There's no Spotify support, but your thirst for random tunes could be satiated by the touchscreen's widget for Last.fm. Available online, on phones and on games consoles for no fee, the "tag" radio station with five million songs costs £3 a month on this particular online platform. That's a shame, though the AXiS does present a 31-day trial membership.
Physically, the 22 x 15cm matt black AXiS is built around an 8W amplifier and NXT speaker tech. That latter is a speaker technology that is primarily aimed at making gadgets thinner, and it's here in its "balanced radiator" guise. As for iPods, the AXiS is compatible with all models, while there are also aux connections to hook-up almost any audio device.
Sound quality is excellent if you're planning to use the AXiS in a bedroom or small study, though if you turn it up to full volume you will notice some distortion. Kept to relatively low volumes, though, the AXiS performs very well. One small point is that the speakers stretch around the left side of the product, making it ideal only for the right-hand side of the bed or desk.
Whether the nation wants or needs to stream music from a PC or the Internet is a moot point, but the provision of Last.fm alongside a versatile iPod dock - and all wrapped up in an attractive touchscreen interface - makes the well-built AXiS an unusually versatile option for your bedroom or study.

Two relaxing at Santa Barbara
... enjoying the sunshine and then return to hotel pool for the afternoon. Martin and Sheila take a trip across the road where there is a Macy`s store within a large shopping mall.
We decide rather than eat out we would have a pizza sitting out on our balcony. Two different types with salad and wine proved to be an excellent choice. A game of cards followed. Gill is still in the running for buying dinner on the last ...
Day 53: Chicken, Wine, and Hamburgers
... hour and a half drive up to their condo in Carpenteria, and we headed out for a night in Santa Barbara. The first stop was a wine tasting at Kunin Wines off of State Street. Alx had advertised Santa Barbara wines before we left, so I had high expectations going in. Kunin is a winemaker, and he makes blends using grapes from different vineyards from around the Santa Barbara valley. The red blends were pretty good, ...
Diablo's Platter
... finally a jazz recital. We then went to dinner at Moby Dick's, back at the pier at 7. It was an epic battle between good and evil. In the good corner we had our waiter Jesus. Except they were out of lobster. Thanks Jesus! In the bad corner was Diablo with Evan's Diablo's Platter. Turns out evil nearly won out. Evan almost vomited from the devil baby octopus on the way back to our room but he worked through it and all is now well in our world. ...
The BIG Sur to Santa Barbara
... sold for $3.2m. We stayed at a beautiful B&B and headed of early Saturday morning to Carmel.
Carmel was breathtaking but we arrived too early and most shops didn't open to 10.00am (Whoops sorry Robbie). A top up of fuel and we travelled the Big Sur (thanks Poss and Dave), this is a coastal drive down the coast from Carmel, the views were breathtaking, we stopped on ...
Santa Barbara in the Sunshine
... the waterfront and up and down State Street. We alighted at the corner of State Street and Cabrillo and walked the four blocks to the brewery, called Figueroa Mountain Brewing Company. The building is an open-air converted warehouse with the brewery equipment visible. The coldness of the steel and brass fixtures is warmed up by dark wood tables and benches. There was an outdoor beer garden which we sat in and tried the local brews. ...

AGD sales promotional ideas...
Every other day or so, you read the doom and gloom at AO.org about folks thinking AGD is going to go belly up soon. The latest sentiments such as these can be found in this thread...
So, in the interests of all AGD owners and future 'Mag toters, how can AGD boost it's sales, subsequently pump some money into R & D, and squelch the naysayers?
My idea...
I think they should release a Classic-valved model with Level 10 installed and sell it with a money-back guarantee. "Shoot this Automag for a month and if you don't like it, return it for a full refund." I firmly believe that most of those who try an Automag will most likely not want to return it. The idea that the sale will be totally risk free for the buyer would certainly stimulate sales.
Those that are returned can be refurbished and sold as used units at deep discounts to those of us that know 'Mags are forever!
With as much as some folks buy/sell/trade markers 1 month is nearly a lifetime.
Somehow AGD needs to let people know that a mag will last for 20+ years.
That it doesn't need expensive second/third party upgrades.
That a solid mech can compete with all the high end electro's.
I'm not sure how this can be done, but Palmer's is doing pretty good, and they don't really even advertise.
Make their own versoin of the spyder mag as an entery level conter part to their E-Mags. Sell it in the same price range as a Ion. That would really get peoples attentoin especialy if they are sold at regular sports stores that sell a small selectoin of paintball items.
Don't get me wrong, i repect companies that do a great deal more engineering and stuff then advertising. But I think AGD might need to advertise a little more, i mean a couple times i was at the field shooting my mag and players were all "whats that?" or "is that full auto" (while shooting a classic mag... :p Point is, i think AGD needs to advertise better and get their name out and what their products are like. Maybe make a cheaperish RT lv 10 mag, doesnt necessarly need to be ultra light but just something fast and reliable that doesnt chop...
Or make a pneumag!
Because I want one but I don't want to build one.
Interesting, some of the ideas to boost sales are to simply use ideas already made by others...like the pneu mag and spydermag...i like it. A spydermag is kind of cool because it can be made cheaply, and pneu mags are freaking awesome cause its going to keep up with just about any high end electro out there...ive seen the vids... anyways...maybe if they could offer those two in more affordable packages they could boost sales..
Well, since 'mags seem to be popular with the old-schoolers, milsim guys, and tinkers, they should target those guys.
Old schoolers are already happy with the selection. Maybe drop the price a bit, or make one that *looks* like the stainless bodies, in aluminum to save weight.
For the tinkers, sell more aluminum bodies, add options for pneumags or electronics, so forth. A nice grip frame with more room in it would be *great*. My Gripstyx frame thankfully had enough room to mill it out to a shell, and weighs little more than half what it did stock.
Because the 'mag is so compact and simple, the milsim guys would be easy to work on. Put a small Co2 chamber in the grip, a 30-round spring-fed clip system on the front, and you'd have a very nice, very tiny little 'carbine', or something akin to an SMG. Sell some with wood. Sell Sydarm conversion kits. There's a *lot* you can do with a mag.
Heck, with a 'mag, they could go the Ion route, in a sense. Sell baseline mechanical ones. Most people wouldn't have to change that, but they could give the options for bodies, new gripframes, rifle kits, pistol bodies, e-grips, so forth.
I would not say Mags are popular with the old-school, tinkers, or milsim guys. Sorry. While some of those folks may buy Mags the majority in those groups do not.
The Mag in my opinion is a great marker, but hard to sell. They have sat on store shelves for a decade while diehard Mag fans claimed otherwise. Mag sales have made AGD a niche market and little more, in spite of what AGD has wanted.
They virtually ignored the woods in favor of trying to compete head to head with the tournament markers and they fall flat. Now they are trying to gain more sales in the woods and scenario market. They seem to be doing better, but still not much more than a niche product.
I have seen AGD attempt to do marketing in the past and I think they just dont have the funds to do so in the way needed to compete with already high selling companies. And honestly, I dont think they should.
PPS seems to be doing fine as a niche market. But AGD fans always seem to think they HAVE to be on par with the big sellers in the industry. I just dont see it happening . EVER. I have seen too many of these types of threads, from customers AND AGD themselves, and nothing has changed.
The Mag is a hard sell when you can pay less and get MORE (read MUCH MORE) with other brands. And no amount of touting quality and best mechanical on the market and can keep up with electronic markers will sway the average player to pay Mag prices for a marker that does not shoot more paint more accurately than a relatively cheap e-marker which allows other goodies with it.
Please dont take this as slamming the Mag, because it isnt. But folks need to realize what a Mag is and what it isnt and what AGD is and what they are not.
I kind of agree with Shartley and the metaphor I use is the Army M14 Rifle. It's a beatiful piece of steel and walnut art capable of incredible accuracy out to 1,000 meters that can hold it's own with any .308 semi ever made.
Unfortunately(except for the fraction of a fraction of the Army pulling sniper duty), soldiers engaged people at 300 meters or closer, and the gun was too expensive to build and feed for the whole army.
The automag will last for 20 years. The average person plays paintball for how many? Five? It's overengineered and underappreciated because of it.
People only want overengineering when it's free, not when they have to PAY for it.
So for many Pballers, it's buy an aluminum spyder or a used potmetal tippy with hopper and tank for $100 and spend the rest of the money on paint, instead of shelling that for a used barebones automag 68.
The Automag is a Range Rover, not an explorer and should be marketed accordingly. They want to have a high quality steel gun and sell them like hotcakes.
Most people wouldn't say Mcdonald's food was nourishing and tasty, but somebody bought those 8 billion, billion burgers. The automag sells on durability and quality, but that won't ring with people who only want the latest and greatest.
if AGD really wants to compete in the market, the have to do *MARKETING*
an e-mag is, in my opinion, an excellent tourny marker, not only do you have the e-mode, but if for some reason, that fails, you have the mech mode to fall back on, the level X mechanical anti-chop works astoundingly well with brittle paint too, so you can get high rates of fire without breaks. if they could 'soup up' the warp feed to handle a HALO's feed rate, then they would be golden for the tourny player.
so they have several viable products right now
the best thing they could do is make a mag in the same price range as a moderately priced spyder or a Tippmann 98, drop their price point on the 'classic pro' model from $229USD to $170 USD or so, the benefit of this would be immediate if they could have the advertising available, not to mention the distribution network.
with a marker priced in the same bracket as a 98C, they could work the 'low maintenance/lasts forever' angle of their product.
the very big thing they could do to bring their product back into the spotlight, would be to have a known team run with mags of one discription or another
mayhaps if thought about this a bit....

Not a Rolls-Royce but it gets you there: remote mobile food security monitoring during the Ebola crisisJune 2015
The Ebola crisis marked a coming of age for the use of mobile technologies in the humanitarian sector, with food security assessments leading the way. Movement restrictions and quarantines, in addition to fear of contracting the disease, made implementation of traditional face-to-face food security assessments in Ebola-affected communities extremely difficult. The rapid spread of Ebola and concerns as to how the outbreak could negatively influence market access and food availability also created a need for regular updates on food security. To overcome these challenges, the World Food Programme (WFP) deployed a fully automated, mobile-phone based remote food security monitoring system…
Coordinating the response to Typhoon HaiyanJanuary 2015
Typhoon Haiyan made landfall on 8 November 2013, cementing the position of the Philippines as one of the countries most at risk from natural hazards. Within days of the disaster the Emergency Relief Coordinator formally activated a system-wide level 3 (L3) response – a designation marking the highest level of humanitarian crisis. In responding to the needs of 14 million affected people, the Haiyan response became the first large-scale relief effort for a sudden-onset disaster since the Inter-Agency Standing Committee protocols under the Transformative Agenda were adopted, setting the parameters for improved collective action in humanitarian emergencies. Scaling up Accompanying…
Recent years have seen tremendous change in Yemen. The popular uprising against President Ali Abdullah Saleh's regime in 2011 led to a process of transition where parties to past conflicts engaged in an open and frank discussion about the country's future, and Yemen is seen by many as one of the very few countries where the events of the Arab Spring still hold out the promise of democratic change. Much of the world's attention has focused on the political process and security issues because of the country's strategic position, in terms of both energy production in the region and international…
In the first week of March 2011, a group of schoolboys in the rural Syrian village of Dara'a were imprisoned for graffiti, after spray-painting the walls of a school with a common slogan of the Arab uprisings, 'The people want to topple the regime'.[1] This event sparked anti-government demonstrations that would soon spread throughout the country. The ensuing conflict between government and rebel forces, which is now in its third year, has forced over two million Syrians to seek refuge abroad, principally in the neighbouring countries of Lebanon, Jordan, Turkey and Iraq, and further afield in Egypt. The relentless pace…
Humanitarianism besiegedNovember 2013
A political or military solution to stop the carnage in Syria seems as remote as ever. The war seems only to bring even worse depths of human suffering and diplomatic impotence. Syrian civilians are in a state, not just of terror, but of horror – hostages in a geopolitical, ideological and sectarian catastrophe. On the face of it, getting humanitarian assistance to the millions affected should be easier to deal with than the political and military mess. In the space of two years, a major relief operation within Syria has indeed come to life despite the extreme circumstances. But these…
Humanitarian access negotiations with Hamas in the Gaza Strip highlight the many challenges humanitarians encounter when engaging with non-state actors. After winning the Palestinian Authority (PA) parliamentary elections in 2006, Hamas began transitioning from an Islamic charitable/militant organisation to a party responsible for state institutions and the provision of public services. Yet Hamas remains in many ways a nonstate actor; those running its ministries are guided by its senior leadership in Qatar and Egypt, have little control over its paramilitary branch, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, and are suspicious of Western aid organisations' potential 'collaboration' with Israeli and other intelligence…
In November 2011, fighting in Blue Nile State in Sudan led to the flight of some 25,000 refugees to Maban County, in Upper Nile State in South Sudan, where they were settled in two refugee camps, first at Doro and then, from December, at Jamam. More continued to arrive over the subsequent months. Six months later, in May 2012, a second wave of 35,000 refugees arrived, in very bad condition with some dying of dehydration from their journey. After an initial period in transit camps en route, most of this second wave was moved to Jamam camp; new camps were…
Humanitarian access in South SudanMay 2013
South Sudan is host to one of the world's largest humanitarian responses, bringing together national and international humanitarian actors in an operation worth more than $1.2 billion in 2013. While the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) in 2005 brought an end to the civil war and led to the creation of an independent country, the security situation in the new nation remains volatile. Out of a population of 12 million, more than 4.6m are food insecure, many of them recent returnees. Ongoing tensions between Sudan and South Sudan, as well as communal violence within the country, displace hundreds of thousands of…
Numerous evaluations have highlighted the poor engagement of national and local NGOs within clusters, listing practical concerns such as language, staffing and logistics barriers, but often without a thorough analysis of why national NGOs do not engage, or what their motivations are when they do. Two questions arise. If we focus on the motivating forces behind engagement, can we build better cluster relations with national NGO partners? And by creating a prescriptive format of participation, such as the cluster approach, have we actually created a barrier to true partnership? My research on cluster partner national NGOs from Somalia, Zimbabwe, Myanmar…
Talking tactics: Kismayo, SomaliaJanuary 2013
Dialogue between military and civilian actors is problematic in Somalia, and no more so than in the southern port city of Kismayo, what was the Islamist group al-Shabaab's last remaining garrison. Considered the most complex urban space in the country, Kismayo is an important trade centre less than 200km from the Kenyan border, and the ultimate prize for the warring sub-clans in the region. After the fall of Siad Barre in 1991, the city was dominated by a succession of some of Somalia's most feared warlords, and most recently by al-Shabaab. The liberation of Kismayo, the fulcrum of al-Shabaab's economic…

1/4 c fresh mint leaves (any kind works, lemon balm is particularly nice!)
1/2 T raw cocoa or carob powder
1/2-1 tsp maca powder
1-2 c water
Recipe Directions
Blend hemp seeds and 1 c water on high until frothy (this makes hemp milk; if you have hemp milk around, just use that instead of the hemp seeds + water).
Add bananas, mint, cocoa powder and maca.
Blend until smooth, adding additional water only as necessary and to yield desired consistency.
Garnish with more fresh mint and enjoy!!

This is a delicious, somewhat 811-compatible version of a chocolate milkshake! So good!

Using the flesh and water from young Thai coconuts instead of so much banana reduces the fructose and makes it really creamy, coconutty, and not so overly sweet (much lower glycemic level!).
thanks, guys!! yes, so many of the milkshake-like recipes are really nut heavy. this can be made very low fat easily too by omitting the hemp seeds (maybe putting in a little more banana) but I like to include em for some omega 3s. also, i've played around a bit using no mint. it's delicious simply without it, but i've also added strawberries, raspberries, etc. also considered orange peel.
aaah yes! I greatly appreciate this being nut-free, don't like mint so I will try it sans leaves. I can't wait! :)
