Astra Luxury Studios in Santorini Apartments Studios for Rent Accommodation in Imerovigli Santorini
What to expect
Featuring an open plan living space, sleeping area with one matrimonial bed (some featuring upstairs loft bedroom), bathroom with shower, fully-equipped kitchenette, and your own terrace overlooking the volcano, Aegean Sea & sunset! Mostly ground floor units just off our main terrace area, some can accommodate up to two guests.
*Outdoor terrace: Located on the ground floor swimming pool level therefore, although you have your own terrace, it is not secluded and you can be seen by your neighbouring guests and also other guests passing by. Approximately 20-25 sqm.
Our Transfer Services
Due to limited taxis on the island, it can be difficult finding one at the airport or ferry pier upon arrival.
ASTRA organizes transfers to & from the airport or ferry pier as follows:
Option 1: Standard Transfer via minibus at the rate of 25€ for two passengers, each way (May or may not make additional stops on the way for additional passengers)
Option 2: Express Transfer via minibus at the rate of 40€ for two passengers, each way (Direct shuttle with no additional stops, may or may not include other ASTRA-only guests)

*For each additional passenger, please add 5€ each way.
Privacy Note
While each accommodation does have its own private balcony or terrace, this means the space is yours alone and is not shared with other guests, it does not mean you cannot be seen by anyone, as the building of walls and partitions would block the beautiful caldera scenery you come here to enjoy. That said, the Superior, Honeymoon and Pool Suites are the most private accommodations possible, so we encourage you to book only these categories if you wish maximum privacy in this type of setting.

Fuck school, do drugs, holes with no magnum, kill everyone in the industry
And drag them to the florist by the end of the chorus, so they can be alive in case

Posting to let people know this job has been filled. Sounds like it will come out looking pretty cool.
Thanks to all that were interested
So i have taken it upon myself to finally start working towards my dream job. That is being a self published writer (short stories, and novels.) I plan to do mostly sci fi and fantasy stories where i blend the two genres to some degree.
Now my plan is to write all of these stories set in a world my girl friend and i have been working on in our spare time. She calls it her "Happy Place" because she literally goes there every night while she is trying to fall asleep. This world is pretty in depth, but there is still room for artistic freedom too. I have a basic map outline and a rough drawing that we tried to do, however, we are not artists nor cartographers by any means. It would just be used as reference material i think.
I tried to do what i could with it like i said above I'm no artist and it just looks half assed. For my purposes i really want something professional looking, or at least more professional then I'm capable of creating. I am also very willing to hire an amateur map maker if the price reflects the quality of the work. I would prefer it if you're more capable then i am though. You can see how horrible my map making talent are by looking at this Third Draft by ~lokiie1984 on deviantART
What the map will be used for: The map will be featured on my books website. As well as having smaller sections cut out and blown up to be used in the stories. To show the reader where the story takes place at. Something similar may be done on the website to show where each race lives and what their territory is.
I would like to have the map be colored on the website but if need be i can do that myself.
Payment: First and foremost your name will be featured in each story and on the kindle page for each story (below the title where it lists Author, illustrator, editor and all that.) I have a small budget to offer cash payment for the work, but it may be less than a job like this would normally get. I don't really know what prices things like this would normally run. Also please be open to some negotiations on your price. I'm willing to work on it if you are.
Rights: As long as i have the rights to use it online and in the books, i don't mind what you use the map for. I would, however, like it if you linked to my main page if you post it online.
Contact: Please email me with offers, if possible provide a link to past works, or attach it in the email. My email is Macinley1 [@] yahoo [.]com I did the extra symbols in the email to hopefully avoid the spam bots. You can also contact me through my website Tainted Legacy - Tainted Legacy or my deviant art account lokiie1984 on deviantART
Thanks, i look forward to hearing from people

Pat is determined to rebuild his life, remain positive and reunite with his wife, despite the challenging circumstances of their separation.

When Pat meets Tiffany (Jennifer Lawrence), a mysterious girl with problems of her own, things get complicated.

The Fight Over The Butler's Title Now Includes A Lawyer Fresh From The Supreme Court
Movie studios and executives go to war with each other all the time, but we rarely get wind of it. Few moviegoers care when a certain exec is fired or replaced with another, when one studio gets the rights to a hotly contested book adaptations instead of another, or even when two studios team up to get a movie made and then fight over the profits-- that's how the Hollywood sausage gets made, and it rarely affects what you actually see in theaters

Watch David O. Russell's Alternate Ending To Silver Linings Playbook
One of the criticisms leveled at Silver Linings Playbook is that the ending suggested that love can cure mental illness an unfounded claim, as I dont believe that was Russells point. Yes, Cooper and Lawrences characters found some happiness in each other, but I dont think Russell believed that their problems were going to go away as a result.

While David O. Russell has been known to go a little off-kilter on set once in a while, I can't imagine a single actor or actress who wouldn't want to work with him right now. The fact that The Fighter earned seven Oscar nominations is impressive enough, but what should make any hungry actor start salivating is that three of those nominations were acting-related and two of the nominees actually won.

David O. Russell Talking With Robert De Niro About The Silver Linings Playbook
Apparently David O. Russell really wants to make a movie with Robert De Niro. When the director was still attached to make an adaptation of the video game Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, he made a deal with the actor to co-star alongside Mark Wahlberg and Joe Pesci. Now that Russell has moved on from that project, however, he apparently wants to bring De Niro with him.

PRESCOTT — Northern Arizona authorities say a Cornville man is in custody in connection with an alleged racially motivated assault last December.
Yavapai County Sheriff's officials say 25-year-old Logan Spude is being held without bond in suspicion of aggravated assault, intentional injury to another and disorderly conduct.
Detectives discovered Tuesday that Spude already was incarcerated at the Camp Verde Detention Center on unrelated charges.
Witnesses say 61-year-old Marvel Warren was assaulted in the parking lot of a bar in the Village of Oak Creek on Christmas morning 2011.
Warren, who is black, told deputies that a man yelled racial slurs at him and then punched him in the face, allegedly causing serious damage to his right eye.
Detectives say it took months of interviews to identify Spude as a suspect.

Summary:Jason thought his inheritance was the gift of money and lots of it--but Jason thought wrong. He had a very simple relationship with his impossibly wealthy grandfather, Howard "Red" Stevens. He hated him. No heart-to-heart talks, no warm fuzzies, just cold hard cash. So of course, he figured that when Red died, the whole "reading of the will" thing would be another simple cash transaction. He figured that his Grandfather's money would allow him to continue living in the lifestyle to which he had become accustomed. But what Red left him was anything but simple. Red instead devised a plan for Jason to experience a crash course on life, involving twelve tasks--which Red calls "gifts." Each task ... Full Summary >>

Thanks everyone who was nice and took time to answer. I was just seeing what people thought about it... It's a forum to ask questions and get others' opinions, correct? Keep your rude answers to yourself.

AMA Motorcycle Hall of Famer Craig Vetter is pleased that his one-off, experimental high-mileage bike can go a long way on a small amount of fuel, but he knows it can do even better. So, on July 19, at AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course in Lexington, Ohio, Vetter will host his Fuel Economy Challenge, designed to push the energy-conserving limits of even the most fuel-efficient motorcycles.
In the Craig Vetter Fuel Economy Challenge, competitors ride their motorcycles under real-world conditions while attempting to consume the least amount of fuel. This year, the route takes participants from the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course to the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum in Pickerington, Ohio. After touring the museum, participants will enjoy lunch before heading back.
Led by Vetter and AMA Riding Manager Dave Hembroff, the ride is 80-90 miles each way, with a two-hour planned stop in Pickerington. Participants will leave the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course at 9 a.m. and are expected to return to AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days by 3 p.m.
"The Craig Vetter Fuel Economy Challenge demonstrates how motorcycles can help us live better with less energy," Vetter said. "The goal is to test our machines in real conditions on real roads under normal circumstances. We want to discover the least amount of energy it takes for us to travel the way we really ride."
Vetter doesn't require the motorcycles in his contests to only get good fuel mileage. They also must do so while carrying a reasonable load, such as four bags of groceries, be comfortable and look like a real motorcycle.
"Innovators have understood for a long time that competition advances the innovations of those who compete," Vetter said. "That is the purpose of the Craig Vetter Fuel Economy Challenge. Regardless of what type of motorcycle you ride, modified or not, we welcome your participation. I want to make clear that the challenge is not just for those who are striving for the best mileage. For casual competitors and friends, this is a great way to discover, under safe conditions, just whose bike goes the farthest on the least amount of fuel."
The winning challenger at 2012 AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days was Fred Hayes. Hayes consumed averaged 143.6 miles per gallon on his custom bio-diesel motorcycle. His fuel cost was 1.93 cents per mile.
Awards will be available for the overall winner, the best electric bike, the best alternative fuel challenger and the best traditional fuel challenger. Details, including further descriptions of each category and how costs per mile are measured, are available at www.craigvetter.com.
As the country's grandest celebration of the people and machines that define motorcycling's history, AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days provides a unique backdrop for an event focused on the future of motorcycle design. The annual gathering features vintage and post-vintage competition in motocross, trials, hare scrambles, roadracing and dirt track. In addition to demo rides of current production bikes, it includes North America's largest motorcycle swap meet, educational seminars, bike shows, motorcycling seminars, the new-product Manufacturers' Midway, and club corrals featuring marque and regional clubs.
Proceeds from AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days benefit the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. The goal of the Hall of Fame, located on the AMA campus in Pickerington, Ohio, is to honor the distinguished men and women whose competitive spirit, passion, vision and entrepreneurship have played a vital role in shaping the sport, lifestyle and business of motorcycling. For more information, call (614) 856-2222, or visit the Hall of Fame's website at www.motorcyclemuseum.org.
AMA members can purchase discounted tickets to AMA Vintage Motorcycle Days through May 27 by calling (800) 262-5646. For more information about the event, visit www.amavintagemotorcycledays.com.

Renovation Photos: Signs of Spring
ATH took a tour of Kauffman Stadium on Thursday. You can tell that the project is moving along as new signs have been placed around the ballpark.
In left field, a very sharp sign is in place above the Royals Hall of Fame. Also, you can see that seats have been placed behind the visiting bullpen.
Fans in the Dugout Box sections (sections 116 to 125 on the third base side and sections 130 to 139 on the first base side) will have a new entrance, the Dugout Concourse. This picture is on the first base side. A spiral ramp was located in this area before the renovation. If you have Dugout Box tickets this year, make sure you take this new walkway to your seats!
If you take the stairs down to the Dugout Concourse, you'll see that these areas will have premium concession stands (below right).
The old K had 1 restroom fixture for every 88 fans. Now the ratio is 1 for every 63 fans! The restrooms are clearly marked with large lettering.
We'll have another post with outfield seating and the new and improved Little K, so check back!
7 Comments
We received an e-mail regarding this post and the special Dugout Concourse entrance. While this entrance is exclusive to the fans in the Dugout Box sections, those fans may still enter their seating sections from the main concourse.
We just wanted to point out that this option is available, and it may be a quicker way to your seats on high-traffic days. Also, it would be a courtesy to fans in the Dugout Plaza sections as they would have less traffic in their aisles when they are trying to watch the game.
Will the Royals offer an open house prior to opening day so the fans can come out to the K and take a look at the stadium improvements? I know a few years back there was an open house prior to the season starting. I was there and so were a lot of other people. I think this would be a good idea, and it would offer the opportunity to get a jump start on the excitement surrounding the new Kauffman Stadium.
Royals officials have been looking into whether an open house is possible with the construction process winding down. Workers will likely be putting finishing touches on the stadium and the number one priority is getting the stadium ready for the opener. We'll keep you updated.
I have heard that there will be another "scoreboard" installed in the outfield wall in right field that will be identical to the one in the left field wall. I have not seen any evidence of this on the new stadium "model" or on the virtual stadium tool on the Royals web site. Are there plans to install another scoreboard in the right field wall to your knowledge?
I just looked at the revovation webcam and saw the right field scoreboard that I just asked about. Guess my question has been answered. Looking forward to opening day!
Let's see more of what they're doing to improve the old concessions on what used to be plaza and view levels. Those poor things were the ones that REALLY needed an upgrade!
Thanks for your post…all of the concession stands are either new or heavily renovated. You'll have a wide array of options throughout the ballpark. Here's one food-related post that we did…

The youngest of six kids, John Joseph Travolta was born on Feb. 18, 1954, and raised in Englewood, NJ. In contrast to the round robin dinner table slapping of the "Saturday Night Fever" Manero family, Travolta's home was a liberal, artistic haven, with his older siblings involved in local theater and his mother Helen's solid background as a singer, actress, and drama teacher. Travolta wanted to be onstage from the start, and was fortunate to gain early exposure to theater, dance, and art films at home. His father Salvatore - co-owner of the family business Travolta Tire Exchange - had built a stage in the basement, but Travolta, nicknamed "Bone" because he was so skinny, hardly needed it, as...

1932 Chevrolet Roadster - Not Your Average DeuceWritten by Chuck Vranas on February 11, 2014 Contributors: Chuck Vranas Neal Smith's '32 Chevy Roadster Brings '60s-era Drag Styling To Life
Little did Robert Smith know when he bought his young son his very first slot car set that he was setting the stage for a lifelong obsession with hot rodding. This isn't so much a tale of passing the hot rod torch, but one of a dad recognizing his son's fascination with them and stepping up to make sure he got a proper introduction. Growing up in Harrington, Delaware, in the early '60s, Neal Smith learned all he could about hopped-up cars by building scale models, reading little books, and heading to the Summer Nationals at Englishtown, New Jersey, with his older brother. It was a combination of nitromethane, metalflake, and burnt rubber that sealed the deal for the youngster as he canvassed every inch of the dragstrip.
As he grew older his passion increased with weekly visits to the local Tastee-Freeze drive-in to watch the hottest cars in town run from light to light. Neal always marveled at one particular hot rod, a lime green '32 Chevy coupe, as it made the rounds with a hot small-block V-8 echoing through straight pipes. One day, while reading ads in the local paper, he discovered the coupe was for sale. He was 15 years old and on the brink of getting his license when he told his dad the car was available. Since Robert wasn't a car guy his initial impression of the coupe was that it was a beat-up jalopy, but deep down he knew the car was Neal's destiny. Without wasting time he made a deal with the owner and bought the car, thus lighting the torch for him to carry on his journey. Evolving through what Neal recalls as Hot Rod 101, he spent countless hours in the family's garage working on the coupe while his dad would pass by many times scratching his head in wonderment at the youngster's attraction to it.
The old Chevy served as the perfect platform for a teenager to go to and from school in, as well as haul his buddies around town. With passing years the car went through a number of different paintjobs, interior combinations, and wheels while always remaining a constant in his life. Having always wished the coupe was a roadster, he did what came naturally and in 2000, he cut the roof off. Although he was pleased with the open-air look, he became disillusioned with the amount of work it would take to complete the transformation and finally parked it in the shop. In the decade that followed he built a '36 Ford coupe as well as a Deuce roadster and thoroughly enjoyed them, but he never forgot his first car as it sat covered in dust.
Neal had known for some time of the creative talents of a young hot rod builder, Corry Hunter, of Six Deuces Speed Shop in Milford, Delaware. A casual meeting with him revealed they both shared the same vision for the Chevy and with Hunter's fresh ideas it was a perfect match to bring the project to the next level. Wanting to give the car a vibe from Neal's youth, Hunter outlined a redesign with a mid '60s drag influence while burying the stance and keeping it full fendered. To get started, Neal hauled the car to Six Deuces for the team to review it prior to being disassembled. With Neal being a hands-on owner, he planned on reworking the stock chassis with Hunter's guidance to give the roadster the right rake. With the car blown apart Hunter got started by fabricating custom crossmembers, with the front crossmember being flattened, to allow the car its nose-in-the-dirt stance. Neal then followed by boxing the stock rails. To transfer the power a '55 Chevy rearend was narrowed 6 inches, filled with 3.25:1 gears, and suspended in place by a combination of parallel leaf springs with lowering blocks and Speedway Motors tube shocks. Up front in order to sink the wheels under the fenders a Pete & Jake's Model A frontend was bolted in place featuring a 4-inch dropped and drilled Super Bell axle matched to Ford spindles and classic hairpins with a transverse leaf spring and rod shocks to soak up the bumps. When it's time to stop, a Corvette dual reservoir master pushes fluid through steel lines to '55 Chevy drums out back and 11-inch GM discs and matching calipers up front. To nail the look and deliver the goods, a combination of ET Dragmaster front wheels shod with Firestone/Coker rubber and ET five-windows out back wearing Hurst cheater slicks proves the roadster is all business.
Neal met with Bobby Reed of Reed's Restoration in Harrington, Delaware, to discuss building an engine that would be a signature element of the car. Starting with a '59 Chevy 348ci mill, all machining was tended to by Scott Cross in Centerville, Maryland. Reed then proceeded to build the base, starting with a stock crank and rods linked to 10:1 Keith Black slugs with a COMP Cam's Mutha Thumpr stick setting the pace. A set of warmed over heads catch their breath from an Offenhauser six-pot intake topped with a squadron of Ford/Holley 94-series carbs. Fire lights through a Mallory ignition while stock exhaust manifolds dump the gases through 2-1/2-inch stainless tube to Flowmaster mufflers. Tasty bits like finned aluminum Edelbrock valve covers and graduated slash-cut air cleaners by Neal add just the right nostalgic touch. To transfer the gusto a vintage Borg-Warner T-10 four-speed links to a custom driveshaft by Reed's.
If the devil is in the details, the team at Six Deuces nailed it on all levels. First addressed was bracing the body since its roof was removed to make up for the strength it lost. From there the tops of the body were rolled with fresh sheetmetal to give it a finished look. The A-pillars were then removed and the cowl was gracefully reshaped to accommodate a narrowed '32 Ford windshield and custom 3-inch chopped windshield posts. Up front the framehorns were reshaped and a custom spreader bar was fab'd to accent the low-slung Moon tank with one-off floating-style mounts and Dietz-style headlights. Trick drilled front inner fender supports look great accented by a chromed 1-5/8-inch steel three-point rollbar with custom mounts. Completing the look out back the rear framerails were extended and meet a custom spreader bar cloaked by a modified splash pan. With all the metalwork completed, the team made the body razor sharp and handed it over to team member Gary Hunter to lay down a custom-blended coating of Six Deuces satin gold.
Inside the all-business interior uses a stock dash filled with Moon gauges to monitor the vitals while a column-mounted tach minds the revs, a Moon steering wheel sets the course, and shifts are by Hurst. Custom items include a custom trans cover and inner door panels by Six Deuces while the distressed brown leather–covered bomber seats are by Strader's Auto Upholstery in Milford, Delaware. The Six Deuces team and Neal successfully fused all their design elements together to create a bitchin roadster that we're sure Neal's dad would have been proud of.

So, in between downing celery sticks and logging major treadmill time to be bathing suit ready, it's time to plan a seaside escape.

Q. A lot better players like yourself have a particular trademark shot or style: Federer, movement, say, forehand; Roddick, serve.
NOVAK DJOKOVIC: You tell me what's mine, because I cannot figure it out. (Laughter.) I still didn't figure out. I wanted to hear if you maybe know.
I don't know. It's hard to say. I like the backhand long line. I'm a baseline player and my game is based from that part of the court.
But, you know, I've been starting to work a lot lately on my volley game, net play, and trying to take the balls a bit earlier and use the chances and be more aggressive. Of course, the serve.
So I could say for myself that I'm all‑around player, but probably the backhand long line is...
Q. Is [doubles] a fun thing for you? Does it sort of relax you?
SERENA WILLIAMS: Definitely relaxes me. Sometimes I get stressed out because I don't like to lose in doubles. We take it very serious. You know, we had fun yesterday, but we're serious out there nowadays. We go for the best that we can do.
Q. Have you ever played with anyone else in doubles?
SERENA WILLIAMS: I have. I played, believe it or not, with Martina Navratilova . That was after the comeback, just F.Y.I., it wasn't when she was No. 1. I'm not that old. (Laughter.)
Q. Tomic was pretty critical about the scheduling of his match last night and the fact that it went too late. Just wondering, as someone who has finished a match after 4:00 a.m. Does he have a case?
LLEYTON HEWITT: Yeah, as I said, I don't know why they're putting some mens matches first and some after the women's. I have no idea. We've all been prepared, I guess, if we do go five sets, nine times out of ten I've always been the second match after the women's.
There's only been a couple occasions in my career that I've played in the last couple of years that I've played a 7:00 or 7:30 match. You always know if you go five sets it's gonna be a long night. That's just how it is.
Q. Should he expect any sort of leniency? He said because he was young, it was hard for him that late. Is that just part of the learning experience?
LLEYTON HEWITT: I think it's part of learning. I don't know whether he requested night or day or what he did. If you get scheduled at night, yeah, that's what's gonna happen. You gotta be prepared for that to happen.
Q. Have you met other members of the Royal family before at Wimbledon?
ROGER FEDERER: Well, the ones on court at the trophy ceremony. Do those count for you, or not?
Q. Yeah. (Laughter.)
ROGER FEDERER: Because those you should know. I mean, but not...
Q. But chatty‑wise?
ROGER FEDERER: Chatty‑wise, no, I don't recall. No. Chitchat, no. English breakfast tea? No, not yet.
Q. Are you a vodka drinker?
NIKOLAY DAVYDENKO: Yes.
Q. Is that where you get your strength from?
NIKOLAY DAVYDENKO: No, I don't drink really. I don't drink so much because, you see, I'm skinny. I mix only. Sometimes I drink clear vodka, sometimes mixed with Red Bull. Little bit get power in night club or disco.
Because if I drink only vodka I go sleep straight. That's what's something change.
Q. If you retire and you explain to your children why you're not working anymore...
NIKOLAY DAVYDENKO: It's interesting. We're not talking about tennis. We're talking about my life. This is my first experience like this in the press (laughter.)
Q. Can you tell us what they say when they sing in the crowd?
MARCOS BAGHDATIS: A lot of things: Marcos, I love you. I will never stop singing for you. Stuff like this.

Ugh, that Tomic kid hasn't even accomplished anything of note and he's already a thorn in everyone's side. It's mostly that ghastly punk and his terror of a father but I blame Australian tennis too for these shennanigans. Giving him undeserved wildcards, press coverage out the wazoo and night matches on Laver have fed his preposterous sense of entitlement. Like my butcher says, if you shove your head up your ass don't be surprised when you encounter shit.ReplyDelete
LOL @ your butcher...ReplyDelete
I wonder if he'll go the way of Donald Young who got similar treatment in the U.S. but still hasn't come through yet. He def got the WCs thought and I remember that first round match at the U.S. Open against Blake. Bernie has the physique and talent to make his mark at a younger age me thinks.
Anyway, it's amazing how much they heap on these young kids with tons of potential but no results to speak of. Then they wonder why they act the way they do.
Yeah, I love my butcher. He's like my old Jewish grandmother only he swears...and is a hairy man.ReplyDelete
Even though I've grown to dislike him, I don't wish him Young's fate. I first heard of Donald when he won the junior's AO and have been waiting ever since for his big statement but like you said, they (parents & USTA) heaped way too much on him and he has failed to deliver. There really is nothing sadder than wasted potential especially for these athletes who have been groomed for the sport and really have nothing else.
It's sad how reckless some of the adults behind these phenoms are with the kids. I can't help but think of husband #1, Richard. He made it to the upper echelons of tennis and has enjoyed success but he hasn't come anywhere near fulfilling the hype thrown his way since he was a small boy on the cover of French tennis magazines. After a certain point it stops being about your parents and federation and you're the only one to blame for your defeats but we fans can tell that the damage is still there.
Poor Hubbie #1 - he got it Capriati-style which is worse than Bernie + Donald put together.ReplyDelete
Definitely but through all the trials and tribulations, I'll be there offering "a shoulder to cry on."ReplyDelete
Heh, "shoulder."ReplyDelete

Does this mask have a glass or plastic lense?
Hello Eve, Thank you for your inquiry! All true SCUBA and Snorkeling masks such as the Oceanic Ion 3X Scuba Dive Mask, are made of tempered glass and not plastic. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-32/029618/Oceanic-Ion-3X-Scuba-Dive-Mask.html If you would like to place an order or have questions about our products, please contact one of our certified Dive Instructors at SCUBA.com by calling 800-247-2822 <> 949-221-9300 or e-mail us at: email@example.com

*Now Availble in Red, White and Blue as a part of our USA Line!

Water is more dense than air, which makes objects look blurry. A mask provides an air spae in front of the eyes to eliminate distorted vision.
Prior to using the mask for the first time, thoroughly clean both sides of the lens with a nonabrasive liquid detergent, or toothpaste, to remove any residue, then rinse with fresh water.
To prevent fogging during use, rub a 'no fog' solution, or saliva, on the inner surface of the lense while it is still dry, then rinse with water.
Adjust the strap so that it holds the mask comfortably and firmly in position on your face without being too tight or restrictive.
Place the mask on your face and pull the strap over the top of your head.
To clear water that enters the mask, stand up or come to the surface and lift the bottom of the mask away from your face to allow the water to drain out. While underwater, tilt yourhead back and exhale gently into the mask while pressing the top portion with your fingers. Water will be forced out the bottom edge.
To eliminate mask squeeze caused by the higher pressures that are experienced when diving deeper than a few feet, exhale slowly into the mask through your nose as you dive deeper. To equalize pressure in your ears, pinch your nose closed with your thumb and finger and blow gently while holding your mouth closed.
Care and Maintenance
At the end of each day of use, rinse your mask thoroughly in fresh water and towel dry. Do not allow the clear silicone skirt or strap to come in contact with items that are black rubber. This will cause the clear silicone to become discolored. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive heat.
Ensure that the mask is completely dry before storing. Store in a cool, dry location.

NEW YORK -- The owner of the venerable New York Stock Exchange, best known for its stock-related trading business and famous trading floor, has been acquired by the InterContintenalExchange, or ICE, an upstart exchange with a huge commodities and derivatives trading business.
The deal is valued at $8.2 billion. The combination creates a more diversified financial exchange company, which includes trading of agricultural and energy commodities, credit derivatives, stocks and equity derivatives, foreign exchange and interest rates.
The announcement came Thursday about an hour before the start of trading in New York.
In a statement announcing the deal, ICE said it is committed to preserving the NYSE Euronext brand and the newly combined company will maintain dual headquarters in Atlanta and New York. New York headquarters will be located in the Wall Street building that is home to the iconic trading floor.
ICE will acquire NYSE Euronext for $33.12 per share in cash and stock, a 37.7% premium to Wednesday's closing price. NYSE shareholders can elect to be paid in all cash, all stock or a combination of $11.27 in cash plus stock in ICE.
"This transaction leverages the strength of our iconic brand and the value we have created in our global equity and derivatives franchises - positioning the business for solid long-term growth and development," said Duncan Niederauer, CEO of NYSE Euronext. "We are bringing together two highly complementary businesses, creating an end-to-end multi-asset portfolio that will be strongly positioned to serve a global client base and capture current and future growth opportunities."
The main attraction for ICE is not NYSE Euronext's stock trading business -- which has been in decline since the 2009 financial crisis and the industry shift to electronic stock trading. ICE is targeting NYSE's LIFFE derivative exchange, which is based in London and will enable ICE to gain access to Europe's sought-after derivatives business, RBC Europe analyst Peter Lenardos said in a research note.
The combination of ICE and NYSE Euronext will also allow the new exchange giant to better compete with CME Group, a U.S. exchange with a huge derivatives business that owns the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and Chicago Board of Trade.
The deal will also allow the combined entity to reduce its costs in an industry that has been hurt by reduced trading volumes and increased regulatory obstacles.
"Our transaction ... offers a range of growth opportunities, while enhancing competition in U.S. and European markets and broadening our ability to address new markets and offer innovative products and services on a global platform," said ICE Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Sprecher.
It marks the latest move towards industry consolidation, driven largely by reduced trading volumes, intense competition and overcapacity.
Lenardos says the merger sets the stage for the potential break-up of NYSE Euronext, which had a pre-deal value of $5.8 billion. "We believe that ICE will have little use for NYSE Euronext's equities business," which includes stock exchanges in Paris, Amsterdam, London and Brussels, Lenardos said.
The deal values NYSE Euronext at 13.2 times next year's earnings estimates, says Lenardos. "We believe this price is very generous to NYX shareholders, and that $10 billion (including debt) is a steep price for ICE to gain meaningful access to European derivatives." Nonetheless, he expects initial reaction to the deal will be positive.
Since ICE and NYSE Euronext businesses have no significant business overlap, analysts do not foresee anti-trust risk to this deal. The latest deal could also jump-start "mega-mergers" in an industry where the top players are "keen to consolidate," Lenardos says.
More than a year ago, ICE and Nasdaq OMX Group teamed up for a hostile takeover of NYSE Euronext, but the deal was blocked by the U.S. government on anti-trust concerns. The Justice Department feared the Nasdaq and NYSE would have a stock trading monopoly in the U.S.
Similarly, European regulators balked at a proposed alliance between NYSE Euronext and Deutsche Bourse.
Deal highlights:
* The cash portion of the transaction will be funded by a combination of cash on hand and existing ICE credit facilities.
* The transaction is expected to close in the second half 2013, subject to regulatory approvals in Europe and the U.S. and approval by shareholders of both companies.
As a result of the transaction, ICE clearing will be more capital efficient and provide operational efficiencies for clearing members, the statement said.
ICE is also committed to maintaining the position of NYSE Liffe in London as a leading international market operator for derivatives products, including its benchmark interest rate complex.
It intends to explore an initial public offering of Euronext as a Continental European-based entity following the closing of the acquisition if market conditions and European policy makers support the offering.
Jeffrey Sprecher will continue as Chairman and CEO of the combined company and Scott Hill as CFO. Duncan Niederauer will be President of the combined company and CEO of NYSE Group. Four members of the NYSE Euronext Board of Directors will be added to the ICE Board of Directors which will be expanded to 15 members.

Mojo Grill celebrates anniversary, sets opening date for 12th
Published: Tuesday, July 2, 2013 at 11:39 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 2, 2013 at 11:39 a.m.
A few hundred of Mojo Grill's friends and family members squeezed into the eatery's new digs Monday evening for an invitation-only peek at its new site in the old Roadhouse Grill facility on Southwest 17th Street near Target.
"Who knew Rondo had this much family," quipped one attendee.
Ron "Rondo" Fernandez, Mojo's owner, took over the facility two weeks ago from Tango Argentine Steakhouse. Since then, the staff has fully repainted and installed wall-to-wall Mojo Grill touches and blues memorabilia.
A suspended upside-down rock music stage - complete with drums, guitars and amplifiers - dominates the ceiling in the main dining area.
The target date for opening the new site is July 12, Fernandez said. The current Mojo Grill on South Pine Avenue will continue to operate until then. Eventually, however, it will be converted into a different concept, he said.
Monday's soiree was more than a preview of the new facility, though. It also was a birthday party to mark the fourth anniversary of the July 1 opening of the first Mojo Grill in downtown Ocala at Fort King Street and Southeast First Avenue.
"And I wanted to thank all the people who have helped me in this, and over the years," Fernandez said.

This was delicious and easy! I made it as a side dish for Christmas. This is a keeper. It is a light tasty lasagna and great with no meat. I used fresh spinach sauteed with olive oil and garlic powder. I also used 12 noodles to make this. I prefer a thin layer of the cheese mix in between the noodles. It also gave the dish a little more height. A total hit even with kids. This will now be a regular at my house.
I wanted a spinach lasagna recipe that I could make, freeze, and then bake. I tried this recipe with my fingers crossed.... And it was awesome! I will make this recipe again and again. It was that good!
