The best place to hide a secret is out in the open.
Not a week after Great Britain stole the limelight with the Royal Wedding, the US has once again come to prominence with the killing of the man who topped their most wanted list, Osama-bin-awadh-bin-mohammed-bin-laden (feel free to skip the names in-between.)
Back in 2000, on September 11th, Osama made his most devastating mark ever by launching a series of attacks (that almost succeeded) on the US. But his terrorist group, the Al-Qaeda, had made the same mistake the Japanese made in WWII: they thought they could put down a giant with their attacks, but they only aroused one. Continue reading

While pasting an image in a Microsoft Word Document, I got this error message:
I was only having Microsoft Word, Windows Paint, Google Chrome and Windows Explorer open at that point of time - nothing more than usual.
Also, I make it a point to never have much background processes and/or sidebar items. At the particular point of time, I was just having Download Accelerator Plus (in case I click on any link to download anything in Google Chrome) and my Samsung Galaxy Y mobile phone connected with USB Storage on.
Anyhow, after closing everything other than Word, I was able to paste the image.
What's the problem? Should I be worrying? What steps and measures can I adopt to make sure this doesn't happens again?

ActualTests Cisco and 350-050 Success Stories
Gain Fine Reputation With ActualtestsThe main purpose of attempting the 350-050 Exam was to enhance the knowledge and gain a fine reputation in the wireless networking industry. Holding A+, CCNA, CCNP Wireless, I was really happy to see the similarity between the questions and Actualtests seemed to be an easy way to pass 350-050 written exam without any kind of disturbance. I have planned to take the Lab Exam after 10 months because I wish to prepare adequately for it. Some of the concepts were old but some of them were recently added to ensure that the candidate possesses enough knowledge and quite capable to make decisions about the WLAN technologies.
Actualtests Saved Time By Providing To The Point ExplanationsThe job I was doing for over 3 years was to administer and look after the wireless network. But the thing that always inspired me was to design and manage the kind of network with my ideas. For that purpose the most prestigious requirement was to obtain 350-050 Certification. William Manning's Book on the subject was good though but the most proper, valid and to the point information was available at Actualtests. The 350-050 Exam Engine was of immense importance in adding some new concepts in a fresh way. Omitting unnecessary explanations and creating practical scenarios, 350-050 Exam Engine of Actualtests helped me a lot to clear 350-050 Written Exam in the first attempt. I am feeling very excited to understand the methods involved to troubleshoot WLAN Services.
Passed 350-050I am happy to share that The real foundation of my exam training lied on Actual Tests.They maintained the rituals of superiority and quality when they offered me an exceptional E20-501 exam product. I think buying their products is certainly worth the amount they ask for.They save time as well as money.

Perhaps the rapture really happened and I'm living in a heavenly alternate universe? How else is it that all of the small-market sports teams I cheer for can be doing so well at the same time!
My football Packers decided to turn on the afterburners late last season, and–thanks in heavy part to a miraculous Vick/Jackson-led Eagles comeback in East Rutherford against the Giants–snuck into the playoffs a six seed and emerged Super Bowl champs earlier this year.
In the months following, my baseball Brewers put some new pitching puzzle pieces in place for the 2011 season and flirted in and out with the division lead until the end of July. That's when they decided that they would not only start beating the Cubs, Astros, Mets, Dodgers and whoever else stood in the way, but dominate them. An August For The Ages produced a large enough division lead that even when they came back down to Earth, the Brewers were able to claim the division (their first in nearly 30 years) and home field advantage for the NLDS.
Elsewhere during the summer, my college football Badgers flew under the radar to somehow lure quarterback Russell Wilson from N.C. State and now have developed a scoring offense the envy of the SEC. Already dominating before the conference schedule began, Wisconsin (#7) thumped the Big Ten's twelfth member Nebraska (#8) in Madison this past weekend. Wilson now has some beginning to whisper the 'H' word.
Suddenly, the NFL is back and the Packers are running and gunning to an undefeated 4-0 record. Teams are scoring on them, but they just keep scoring a lot more. Have all the WRs covered? No problem, the TE will catch 3 TDs. Have a game plan to contain the TE? No problem, four different WRs will catch a TD. Have all the receivers covered? No problem, the QB or RB will run up and down the field. High octane and high efficiency, almost reminiscent of Montana's 49ers in the 80s.
Coincidentally, the NBA season is looking increasingly like it won't start on time, therefore allowing my basketball Bucks to–well–at least they aren't losing right now.
Top this all off with the Brewers winning the first two games of the NLDS against the snakes, and you've got a recipe for a dream weekend of sports.
Now if only I'd been able to take advantage of the gorgeous weather outside, too, instead of fighting a Trifecta of Ill: asthma, ragweed allergies, and the common cold.
But if this is the price I had to pay for reveling in sports-fan heaven, then it was worth it.

How come every single Cash Run I've been to (about 12 so far), everyone says "Not Available", what do I need to do to make it available?
In addition to not being in a mission, you might have to put away your phone (end profiler by pressing Y) to start cash runs. I had the same problem and this solved it for me. This seems to be a glitch, because once I took my phone out again, it was still available, and it doesn't really make any sense. Still, I'm not the only one experiencing this, and the "not available" message disappeared after putting away the phone.
Also, Cash Runs are dependent on the time of day. Some are only available at night or daytime. Unfortunately, I don't know which ones exactly are affected by this.
Pause the game and press "Quit Mission" and try again. Side missions (i.e Cash Run) should be available now.

I'd actually like to enter Cave of Illusions from Dark Energy to this but as the general idea is to make a good-looking map, it doesn't stand against (literally) anything on that aspect.
Ah, whatever! I'll just show you what that cave is like:
There are "three types" of maps in this cave; ones that look like #1, ones that look like #2 and one #3. Just ignore how the graphics aren't displayed right in #3.
But the idea goes like this; every map of type #1 is connected to four sides like shown in the screenshot and #2 and #3 only upwards.
There are two entrances in the cave and you'll have to "figure out" (not really) the way to get to the other entrance. As an example, with some map of type #1 there, if you walk upwards from the uppest part of the map (through map connection), you actually end up in the lowest part of it in the same map and that loop takes place over and over again until you choose to go either down, left or right ending up somewhere else.
In my personal opinion, the funny thing here is that thinking logically makes no sense here. If you start in room of type #1, take a turn right, then up, then left, and then down (by always being in room of type #1 there), you will not end up in the same map you started with.
But nah, never mind my "map" here.

These numbers AREN?T REAL ATTENDANCE but number of solded tickets!!! It?s large different!
For example:
at all sites I found on web was attendance at Omaha show (in June 77) 10.604! But it?s WRONG!!! :x These is tickets which was bought by organizer, not to audience!!! Real attendance at this show was 9.977! 627 tickets was returned or not sold!!!
And MSG is same! Real capacity is OVER 20.000, it?s true, but tickets which are determined for public are "only" 20.000 (for all concert in this building, but it depends on size of stage)!!! But I think that these concerts were really sold out - 20.000 people for each show + few "ilegal" people in audience - policemans etc. It means really over 20.000 people in audience.

The game has been tight with the pitchers on both sides dominating. In the eighth inning, your team managed to get two runners on base. Is it a sign that the pitcher is tiring? The guy on second base is that fleet footed center fielder. With his speed, a solid hit to the outfield and the home team will take the lead. As the anticipation builds, you watch the runner on second taunt the pitcher. The guy on first is the catcher. He is not as quick around the bases. It will take a long ball, probably a home run for him to score.
At the plate, is the third baseman recognized as the best defensive corner in the organization. He watches the third base coach go through the signs then puts the bat between his knees and both hands on his batting helmet. The third base coach goes through the signs again, claps his hands and points to the batter as he steps back into the box. The pitcher, who does not typically throw a first pitch fastball, winds and delivers. The batter squares as he faces the pitch and lays down a bunt. The hit is not a soft sacrifice bunt. It is a sharply struck bunt toward the second baseman playing at double-play depth.
Why bunt?
The batter is a minor league player and is still learning his craft. He may have an excellent arm and amazing mechanics on the field, but his batting is barely average. The player must see the ball better and recognize the pitch in order to advance to the majors. The coach is making him bunt so that he has to watch the ball all the way into the plate. The minor league coach is more concerned with player development than wins.
I'm certain that all minor league coaches like winning. The fans need to remember it is the minor league coach's responsibility to identify the skills that need to be strengthened, teach those players who will learn and weed out those players that refuse to be taught.
Like all professions, when the player makes it to the majors, everyone from the fan to the owner expects them to produce wins. There is no on the job training in the majors. The school of the minor leagues is over.
By the way, for those fans still railing against the coach who ordered the bunt, bases are loaded, the defense must draw in the infielders and the slowest base runner is now at second base. Almost any ball in play that does not go right at an infielder will score the go ahead run.

I know, stupid question. But humor me for a sec. First off, we know that all real numbers have two numbers which are infinitely close to them, right? That would seem to be, for any given value of x,
x ± y
y = .000...1
But here's the thing:
y + .999... = 1
And, of course, we all know that .999... = 1, so that means that y = 0, right? Which means that all numbers infinitely close to one another, which represents the entirety of the real number line, are equal, right? Something here is screwed up, but for the life of me I can't figure out what.
PS, I wasn't sure what tag to give this, so feel free to edit them.

Coverage's ok but it leaves a really sticky feeling. Can't wear it alone.
It's alright..

Even coverage and really easy to pick your shade out. Very, VERY light coverage so perfect if you plan on wearing it under a powder or if you only like a light cover- not so great if you rely on your foundation for all of your coverage.
Ok product

Conference alert: EdTechXEurope 2016
Dr Dirk Hastedt, Executive Director of the IEA, together with other experts and influencers, will discuss and examine the future of assessment, as part of EdTechXEurope 2016.
IEA studies
TIMSS 2015 and PIRLS 2016, which are in their sixth and fourth cycles, respectively, are part of IEA's regular series of international assessments in mathematics, science, and reading.
This cycle of studies allows countries to monitor changes in educational achievement in basic school subjects over time. In the new cycles both studies have added new assessment opportunities to their core, including TIMSS Numeracy, TIMSS Advanced, PIRLS Literacy, and ePIRLS.
IEA studies focus on student achievement and the factors related to it. They provide high quality data for evidence-based educational policy and reform. Other ongoing IEA studies cover a range of topics and subject matters: ICCS 2016 (civic and citizenship education), ICILS 2018 (computer and information literacy), and ECES (early childhood education).
ICCS 2016 will investigate how young people around the world are prepared to undertake their roles as citizens, and will report on trends in civic knowledge and engagement since 2009. ICILS 2018 builds on a tradition of IEA surveys and features an innovative, computer-based student assessment of computer and information literacy. ECES aims to explore, describe, and analyze early childhood education provision and its role in preparing children for school and lifelong learning.

" the house is very smelly, because in the basement is a smoking room. upstairs in the rooms, the smell goes away, but in the living room in the first floor, it is still smelly. During the nights there was no one at the counter, i was by myself with two guys in the room, who where a bit weird, so i didnt feel safe. In the living room was full of families from kosovo, who live in the hostel for more than a year, talking on the phone. It was hard to watch tv and relax. They forgot my breakfast. "- Anonym

A recipe for homemade pressed down potatoes.
Clean potatoes well.
The preference of the skin on or off is optional.
Boil potatoes until tender enough to put a fork gently through. But not to the point where the potatoes is falling apart.
If boiling in microwave seventeen minutes would be rough estimate.
Remove from boiling water and rinse lightly any starch that accumulated from the boil time. Place on a baking sheet, pan or foil and use a kitchen tool to smash down potatoes, lightly. Drizzle lightly with olive oil.
Season with preference, salt and/or pepper all optional.
Place in oven under selection of broiler and let brown and cook further for about 10minutes to develop a crusty top, on top of the potatoes. Remove from oven, let cool slightly so center won't be hot when bitten into then add favorite dressing and serve. Enjoy.
Recipe for everyday, to add on too a meal, a Super Bowl appetizer, snack and so on.
Potatoes can be found in the local food market available in El Paso, such as Albertsons and more.

Our waterways have long provided creative inspiration for artists and writers.

'WaterWay' examines these arteries of wildlife, trade and recreation, while also looking at the surrounding landscape, those who make a living along it's shores, the communities who live close-by waterways or those who come simply to enjoy the water in all it's various moods.

One fateful night, some very talented Bay Area musicians went onstage for a gig at the Hillside Club in Berkeley, CA, October 11, 2011. What transpired there turned into one helluva live album for trumpeter and composer Erik Jekabson and guest percussionist, the five-time, Grammy-nominated John Santos.
"We didn't intend to record a CD, but Bruce Koball, the artistic director of the Hillside, records every concert and after listening to it over the course of a year, I decided that it was a great documentation of a brand new band and the energy that the band has the first time playing together," Jekabson explained. "[I'd] put this band together to add some new sounds to a quartet palette, John Santos' percussion being those new sounds. We got a musical grant from the San Francisco Friends of Chamber Music that helped everyone get paid, and now the CD's out."
The March 15th release, "The Erik Jekabson Quartet & John Santos | Live at the Hillside Club," captures the energy of that new band (Jekabson on trumpet and flugelhorn, his quartet — pianist Grant Levin, bassist John Wiitala, and drummer Smith Dobson, with guest percussionist Santos) stretching its creative and collaborative bandwidth without any discernible mishaps. Capturing that energy live — and on record — is a natural progression of any band, and the wish of every music fan. But for the exacting, perfectionist jazz musician, it can present a challenge.
Namely, getting over the urge to fine-tune every track until it's studio-ready, which kind of offsets the purpose of a live album. Jekabson admitted to the reservations prior to giving Koball's Hillside mix a listen. "Bruce records everything at the Hillside, and he does it really well," Jekabson told Andrew Gilbert of Berkeleyside in a March 13, 2014 interview. "After he sent me the music I picked through the rough mixes and gave them out as Christmas presents. The more I listened to it, the more I realized how good the band sounded. Bruce was incredibly generous and spent a lot of time with me getting the right mix. I definitely wasn't intending to make a record, which is good, because it's easy to get uptight when you know you're recording."
Even though the record is live, the band came prepared with Jekabson's charts and recordings of some tracks. They even managed to sneak in a pre-show rehearsal at the Hillside Club. The quality of those tracks are attributed to the vast experience of the guest star, John Santos — a major name in the San Francisco music scene — and of Jekabson's quartet. Jekabson's played with drummer Dobson and bassist Wiitala for quite awhile now. They backed him on his 2009 album "Crescent Boulevard" and then again for his acclaimed 2011 museum-inspired, "Anti-Mass." Pianist Levin takes over for guitarist Mike Abraham. As for Santos, Jekabson knew he had found a kindred spirit and a performing goldmine in this veteran when their paths crossed at JazzCamp West a few years back, when both were faculty members.
Santos tenured for two years as the resident artistic director at SFJAZZ Center and has recorded with numerous killer, Latin-jazz artists. Last year, Santos' work got the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra treatment by director Arturo O'Farrill in a two-night, New York City Symphony Space show.
Much to Jekabson's surprise, Santos made room in his busy schedule to do some gigs and some new music with the band. He was definitely up for the Hillside Club, with all the preparation that involved, which showed in the absolute artistry and technical proficiency of his play throughout the live album.
"John is the nicest guy, and really conscientious about learning the music," Jekabson said. "You can tell it's the bandleader in him. There are some tunes he's really playing the congas more, more of a salsa thing. But a lot of the time he's totally free to do whatever he wants. He can play so many different styles. His ears are so huge, he finds the spot to add whatever's necessary. [Andrew Gilbert, Berkeleyside, March 13, 2014 interview]"
Jekabson wrote and arranged all of the eight tracks on the album. Usually, an average album contains at least 10 to 15 tracks. But with Jekabson, less is more. His densely layered, elaborately thoughtful variations, and the fact that this is a live, straight-ahead jazz recording — who knows where they'll go next — the eight tracks could fill two albums. "Crescent Boulevard" alone is over 11 minutes long, and worth every nano-second.
The music flows through Latin-jazz ("Pent-up House"), funk, classical, New Orleans, and straight ahead ("Fallen Angel") focusing obsessively on the out-stretches of the percussive (naturally, look who's there!) path.
Every Jekabson tune is a trip down a seemingly endless rabbit hole, pushing deeper into the trenches with the thick, mossy forestry of promise, discovery, and an insatiable appetite for the darker heartbeat of a song's inner workings. This is a Steampunk composer who enjoys exploring the guts of the music outward.
From the moment the Erik Jekabson Quartet & John Santos lock in on the first track of the live performance — "Occupy" — it's clear they're here to explore every crevice inside out. The music is neither extravagant, nor self-indulgent. Every note's in place, no time or interest in showing off. Each member of the band's ready to crack the melodic/harmonic code, or die trying.
Somehow, their live music sounds studio-ready yet dangerously organic, as if one of them will take a turn at any moment, flying off into a wonderland. Nobody cares, because each one of them — especially Santos — does at some point, always rounding home in a perfectly executed time slot.
"Occupy" gets dark and deep into the heartbeat before moving fast through five constantly repositioning, yet compatible instrumental treatments. Jekabson's horns lay the track's melody nearly threadbare, forming the silky firmament from which to launch a thousand solos. He weaves his warm-to-sharp figures through the layers of Latin percussion, straight-ahead bass and drum backbone, and an almost pop-fusion amalgamation brewing beneath pianist Levin's fingers. Then, Levin breaks character with pretty melody to crank at the harmonic outskirts, breaking chords at the edges, creating two-tone magnetic steel on ivory tracks in a solo that goes everywhere at once. That's gotta be Santos and Dobson further breaking up the beats in a frenetic Afro-Cuban striation that somehow tops off the heady brew.
There's always so much going on in a Jekabson production, it's hard to focus. But the whirligig is never superfluous. "Crescent Boulevard," the last and second longest song on the album, sets a pensive, sexy mood as the horn cuts through the air in slices then spirals. Before too long, the other musicians fall in line, picking up on the threatening tantrum of a slow burn as wild, primitive sounds begin to circle. As the audience's applause falls like rain in Paris, that slow burn leaves traces of Dexter Gordon's Round Midnight and even a little Monk.
John Santos goes into a controlled percussive, conga frenzy on "Rhythm-a-ning," setting the bar high. Up against Jekabson's equally controlled but sly, architectural-brass sensibility, the contrast is jarring but effective. The effect is that of a vaudevillian circus running through a Cuban nightclub. When the two go together, with pianist Levin granting several accentuating passes, it's a Latin-straight-ahead mambo. The musical conversation lends itself to whatever space and time are required to get a solo out of Santos' system — the sonic equivalent of bumper cars headed in the same direction.
Same with "Pent-up House," inspiring pianist Levin to conjure up the classical and the conga line in one fell swoop, as the percussion section carries the tune along — busting loose in a salsa every so often. Both piano and drums lockstep down a crazy jungle pathway, marked by jagged edges and dance moves.
Grant Levin drops flowers all over his piano in the classically touched straight-ahead groove of "A New Beginning," as bassist Wiitala and trumpeter Jekabson do their own evasive lockstep — the fragrant build of melody a hair's breath within their grasp.
"Fallen Angel" is as straightforwardly straight ahead as it gets. The horn, piano, percussion, and bass all serve to propel a very specific, very intimate feeling of introductory courtship in the air. Instead of a swirling, circular mass at play, the band breaks the moments down to an even, confessional tempo, distilling mood with just a selection of well-played notes in quiet conversation, taking turns, listening and rotating riffs off what's already been said, and coming together calmly.
"Actual Tune," coming in at a whopping 11 minutes and 23 seconds is a tribute to what Jekabson can do on the trumpet, at one point, halfway through, making it creak and cry for mercy in an absolute slamming jazz-blues scorcher. This may be the longest tune on the record, but it's jam-packed with soluble solo numbers that entrances from one stream of subconscious to another.
Santos stretches time and imagination in the ultimate stream of consciousness number, "Like Kenny." His conga intro is out of this world, a fantastical directive of a solo flourishing and grounding the song. The others dive right in, jumping on his embarrassment of riches at the starting gate. They put meaty flesh to the tribal beats in a roving parade, carving out strategic elaboration — bursting at the seams, yet wholly contained — for an interval, slip and peek buffet. In true jazz improvisational form, each musician contributes a voice in no particular pecking order, going deeper into that rabbit hole to the center of an unseen but felt energetic propulsion.
If this is live, imagine a studio recording. Wow.

Die Wohnung wird zwar hier auf der Plattform angeboten, wird aber über eine Reisegesellschaft vermietet, also nicht privat. Das wussten wir vorher nicht. Die uns zugewiesene Wohnung aus deren Kontingent war dreckig und eklig. Wir haben uns sofort nach Ankunft beschwert und es kam auch gleich die Putzfrau und hat die fleckige Bettwäsche gewechselt, die verschimmelten Gardinen weggeworfen (ohne Witz), die Übergardinen am nächsten Tag gewaschen und wieder aufgehängt. Der Hausmeister musste verschimmelten Silikon aus der Dusche entfernen und hat neuen drüber geschmiert. Eine Glühbirne hat er austauschen müssen, die nur noch geflackert hat. Das Geschirr war dreckig, in den Tassen waren noch Kaffeereste zu sehen. Alles in allem war die Wohnung alt und abgewohnt. Nach dem Einsprühen (von uns selbst) mit Febreze konnte man sich dann zumindest drin aufhalten. Wir waren sehr enttäuscht, weil die Anlage an sich sehr schön ist. Dafür den einen Stern.
Very disappointed at the standard of the apartment and the arrival and departure procedure! This apartment was let through Wimdu by Interhome. I will never book anything let by Interhome again. Having made the booking and paid for it we were totally unaware until one week before departure that bed linen and towels were not included and an extra charge was levied (Euro 28 for sheets and 12 for towels). When I challenged Interhome on non disclosure of information they told me it was in the small print: having trawled though every last word I found it in tiny print under Cancellation Policy! Again I challenged Interhome about deliberately placing this important piece of information where nobody will think to look. It should be clearly displayed on the webpage under Amenities where a note can be posted in the relevant area for all to see.
Arrival procedure - what a nonsense. Having paid for the sheets you have to collect them in person from the office. We made it by the skin of our teeth before the office closed for the weekend. Because our flight was delayed we arrived in Chamonix later than expected and had the office been closed we would have had no sheets at all! They are bulky to carry and I have photos of my husband looking like Santa Clause with a big white sack over his shoulder. It's the height of nonsense to expect arrivals to lug luggage and carry this bulky bad around Chamonix. On departure we had to return the sheets to the office again in said bag!
End cleaning - the previous tenant had presumably paid therefore we expected a clean apartment. The hard surfaces were clean but the living room carpet was disgusting with stains and grime and dirty black marks (photographed). It needs either professionally deep cleaned or dumped. Personally I would replace it. My bed sheet had a dirty brown mark on it (photographed) and the "white" patio furniture was grey with grime. I don't think it had been cleaned in years. Before I would set as much as a mug on it I scrubbed it with the dish scrubber (which I then couldn't use on the dishes!). Again we have photographic evidence. The best feature of the apartment is the wonderful view of Mont Blanc from the balcony. I don't know who is employed to clean this apartment but they could do with a lesson or two. I will never use Interhome again and I recommend that you steer clear of it too. I've used Wimdu many times and always been satisfied but not on this occasion.
Nice clean well equipped apartment. Very friendly hoists. Would recommend to all my friends.
The Oasis is a wonderful and great accomodation. The house is surrounded by Lemon trees and offers a great view to the sea. It is well equipped, clean and very comfortable for Groups/families up to ten. Highly recommanded.
The place shown on the pictures has an open swimming pool. However if you 're in to reading all the small letters in the massive paper work of Inter Home you Will Read That the pool is open from the 15th of June. What à dissapointment for my daughter. Furthermore we had to pay for the bedlinen on top of the cleaning which was counted pro person. And of course because it was cold we had to pay for the heating although in the living room was no heating system, only in the bath and bedroom. The owners were. Ice although when people arrive in the middle of the night due to their flight it would be nice if there would be something to drink. The garden is large and nice decorated so I think in summer when the pool is open it will be a paradise. For myself I think it is deceive that Wimdu puts this booking through a link connecting to another website. In this way you pay a lot more and you don,'t get what is shown on the pictures. I will never book in this manner again because in the end you pay a lot more.
Wonderful place with great hosts. The apartment is spacious and very clean, the beds are big and comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped and the balcony offers a superb view of Eiger. We will certainly come back again.
nice sunny apartment, close to mountains, ideal for active holidays close to innsbruck and germany.
a bit 90's furnishing but everything clean and usefull.
Thanks a lot
We had a great time. The accommodation was good, room was clean and complete. It had a nice parking garage, a bit small but fine.
It was no problem that we arrived late in the evening (car trouble). The breakfast service was convenient and good. We had a great view of the mountains and we got some great advice about the area from the landlord.
We would recommend this accommodation to everyone who loves nature. But you do have to travel a bit (25min) for the first big supermarket.
Convenient to 3 metro lines; furnished; pictures of small rooms accurate; elevator. Shelves and dishes grimy; very noisy street (major road to airport) during week; no trash cans; smelly towels poorly laundered; some musty smells throughout; no Internet (borrowed from neighbor, though).
First of all, I was a little nervous because I had plenty of doubts and the agency didn't answer me, in that point very bad customer service I can't believe they take like one week to answer a customer email... Anyway one week before our arrival our host finally could contact me and I talked to her. Luckly Montse was a Spanish woman and we could understand each other very good. Despite we had problems in our arrival, she was very kind and understood everything, made everything very easy and was very flexible about the arriving time. She really cared about us, offering herself for any help we could need (finding supermakets, places to eat, and useful information) we are really grateful about that:)
About the house, 10-15 min walk from Piazza San Marco, good location, very close to important places and easy to find (difficult in Venice..) the house is exactly as described in the pictures, one big sofa-bed (very comfortable) one bedroom, the kitchen, bathroom and a small terrace. Despite was a little bit small apartment was very nice, comfortable and charming.
Against: it wasn't very cleaned, some dirty in the corners and under the sofa and furniture. I don't understand why we had to pay 20€ per person for cleaning taxes and other taxes when they left us the apartment not as cleaned as they could...
The oven didn't work (or we didn't know how to turn it on... Neither our host) and half of the stoves didn't work, and the ones who did was very low fire and we took ages to cook and to get the water to boil.
The other think I didn't like (but this isn't problem of the house) is that even is well located, it's pretty far from the train station, like 40 min walking, 1hour if you are taking luggage, so the best thing is to take the vaporetto and its 40 min more or less and 7,50€ each trip. It's not a really big deal but a think to take on count if money is a struggle for you. You'll do it if you are going to Treviso airport.
Anyway, we had a very nice time then, if I go back to Venice, I would repeat for sure! :)

I've seen some fun file cabinet makeovers, lately. (Remember this one?) Here's another good one from Lisa of The Thrifty Challenge.
One of Lisa's friends was nice enough to give the filing cabinet a quick spray of durable white automotive paint, which was a big change by itself. To give the makeover a little more flair, Lisa chose a sunny, yellow fabric with a playful pattern, and decoupaged it onto the front of the cabinet drawers. Now she has a happy place to keep all of her teaching files!

A New Jersey couple was enjoying the night sky near their home on Toms River when a 40-foot high performance boat came crashing onto their property. The boat had run off the Toms River and smashed into a gazebo before it ended high and dry in their yard. The home owners said the vessel was "roaring up a storm" with music blaring and the motor still running after the collision. The boat's two occupants were uninjured, but quickly left the scene. Reports state the man operating the vessel was drunk and was later charged by authorities for operating a vessel under the influence.

North Main Stranded
The 1227 dwt inland tanker North Main became stranded at Baarland, Netherlands. Tugs were soon on location, but the North Main was caught in a receeding tide and nothing could be done until the next tide. On the next tide, the tanker was able to be released and continued its voyage. No reports of injury, damage or pollution being released.

Detector, X-ray, Ionization Chamber
NRL-designed berylium window x-ray ionization chamber similar to those used in the early 1960's on the Explorer VII, Vanguard III and Solrad I satellites. The berylium window in this detector was designed to admit x-ray radiation. The charges generated by the impact of the photons on the interior gas then traveled to the oppositely charged anode electrode. Additional collisions of the ions and electrons with filling gas on their way to the electrodes generated more charges and in effect amplified the signal. This artifact is part of a collection of original high-energy detectors from the Naval Research Laboratory (see Catalogue numbers 19880001000-19880017000). It was transferred to NASM in 1987.

The driver of a vehicle that collided head-on with another vehicle, causing the death of Chereece Rule and seriously injuring David Wilson has been named a defendant in a wrongful death case filed in the Montgomery County Common Pleas Court on April 5, 2014. The accident occurred on August 11, 2012 in Harrison Township, just north of downtown Dayton.
Rachel Schidecker, who was 18 years old at the time of the accident was driving north in the southbound lanes of I-75. The impact of the crash caused the vehicle that was being driven by David Wilson to become wedged under the trailer of a semi-truck, where it caught fire. Wilson was partially ejected in the crash and was pulled from the wreckage by Good Samaritans who stopped to help. Chereece Rule was a passenger in the vehicle driven by Wilson and was trapped inside the vehicle. Witnesses reported hearing Rule scream for help until the fire completely consumed the vehicle. Five vehicles in all were involved in the crash, and five people were transported to hospitals, including Schidecker.
Schidecker had a small laceration on her face and kept asking the EMS personnel if she was still pretty. Schidecker's attorney, Dennis Leiberman has denied that she asked that question. Schidecker admitted to troopers from the Ohio State Highway Patrol and EMS personnel that she had been drinking. Blood was drawn at Miami Valley Hospital and her blood alcohol level was analyzed by the highway patrol crime lab and was determined to be 0.236%. Normally the legal limit in Ohio is 0.08%, but because Schidecker was under the age of 21, the legal limit is 0.02%.
After a very lengthy investigation, including waiting on results of DNA testing, Schidecker was indicted by the Montgomery County Grand Jury on several charges, including Aggravated Vehicular Homicide, which is a felony of the 2nd degree. The criminal case is scheduled to go to trial in June of this year.
The lawsuit is brought on the behalf of Jacqueline Johnson, the executrix of Chereece Rule's estate and lists David Wilson as a second plaintiff. The lawsuit also seeks damages for Chereece's children. It was filed by Attorney Matthew J. Blair in Niles, Ohio. Other than numerous spelling and typographical errors, the lawsuit seems pretty standard. Rachel Schidecker's mother, Jenny Schidecker was named as a defendant in the lawsuit because the vehicle that Rachel was driving was owned by Jenny.
The criminal case has proceeded slowly. When she was arrested, she almost immediately posted bond and was released to electronic home detention. Her attorney has requested several modifications to the conditions of the house arrest, including one request that Rachel be allowed to go outside of her house to enjoy sunshine in an attempt to improve her mental health and lessen her depression. Other requests to modify the house arrest were standard requests, including permission to attend doctors appointments, therapists, church and a 12-step alcoholics anonymous program. The judge has approved each request to modify the conditions of house arrest.
Since Schidecker has been on house arrest for over a year, the question was asked whether her eventual prison sentence would be reduced based on the time she spent on home detention. Typically when a defendant is sentenced, they will get jail time credit for any time they spent incarcerated waiting for the case to go to trial. The Montgomery County Prosecutor's Office confirmed that the time she spent on house arrest will not count towards her prison sentence. In 2004, the Ohio Supreme Court decided in State v. Gapen, a notorious triple murder in Dayton, Ohio that house arrest was a "constraint" of a defendant's liberty, but not a "detention." Ohio statutes clearly state that for jail time credit to be awarded, the defendant must be held in a state of detention. Schidecker might get credit for two days of jail credit up to this point.
Schidecker filed a "Motion to Suppress," which asked the judge to throw out some of the evidence in the case. She asked that the blood analysis be excluded because the blood was not refrigerated while it was being shipped to the highway patrol crime lab in Columbus. The normal procedure of the highway patrol is to mail blood samples to the lab. Courts in Ohio have ruled that blood samples do not have to be refrigerated during the shipping process. She also complained that the her consent to draw blood was not voluntarily given because she was strapped to a backboard and was not free to leave. The judge rejected her arguments and the case is now scheduled for trial.

MORE doesn't preach, either. Please don't change that approach! I'm an adult. I don't need to be told what to do. Keep up the brilliant work! And thanks for the hilarious quip about your colleague wearing a real pineapple on her head. Quite a fashion statement, I must say! We don't see a lot of that kind of thing in Maine. Warm regards,

Too Much Fluff
I've enjoyed my subscription to MORE magazine and wanted to respond to your request for feedback. My only complaint is too much focus on fashion & makeup. I'd rather read about "real" over-50 women and what they are doing.

Reinventing What You Own
Dear Ms. Seymour, Before I share my thoughts with you, let me tell you a little about myself. I am 54, have my MBA, and am currently a Vice President at a large defense contractor in the Washington, DC area. I have been married for 34 years and have no children. What I would like to see in MORE is a sharp, deep focus on the significant and important issues women my age are dealing with today, from serious financial issues to fashion and beauty challenges.
And when it comes to beauty or fashion, please stop showing me new products to buy. Tell me how to better use what I already own. What I would LOVE to see in MORE is a recurring fashion article about how to shop at home. How to make do with what you've got. How to turn what you already own into a new look, again and again and again; day in and day out, week after week. I would really like MORE to become a resource for me regardless of the topic; a true resource with solid information that I can work into dealing with the questions and challenges of my own life. Hopefully, I've given you some food for thought. Best Regards,
Deborah A. Brunetti
Unethical Patchwork
I take issue with Rebecca Denhoff's statements that she "provides her own veterinary care" and that she "is not afraid to sew things up," not to mention that area veterinarians are encouraging this behavior. As a veterinarian, I spend a great deal of my day educating clients and fixing things done by medical professionals who just like Mrs. Denhoff think that their skills translate to animals. They do not. Just as it would be irresponsible (not to mention illegal) for me to practice medicine or surgery on a human, it would be for people like Mrs. Denhoff who are not licensed to work on animals. I think those statements give people the false impression that what we do can be done by anybody and that there is no need to consult a professional. Shame on you more for printing such irresponsible statements.

Where is the Wisdom?
I find that the MORE magazine is more for the 40-year-olds and I must tell you 40 is not old…not even close. You should have more women in late 40s and 50s-60s. Just an FYI…I am 58-years-old and my son just taught me how to snow board this past winter in Co. What a blast. It just seems that you are forgetting us older women. We do have a lot of history and experience and we are always ready to share but also ready to lean new things. Please find more room for the older ladies in you magazine. Thanks,
Time for MOST
Dear Lesley, I began reading MORE over six years ago when the article about going gray first came out. I was inspired! And I did it that same year. I now have a lovely thick head of shiny, silver hair; it is the most complimented thing about me. All thanks to MORE.

Harry Potter Reading Challenge
So I saw a post for this over at Devourer of Books which led me too GalleySmith where Michelle is hosting the Harry Potter Reading Challenge. The challenge is simple, read and/or listen to all the Harry Potter books between August 1, 2009 and July 31, 2010.
Having just seen the new movie yesterday, I told my husband I needed to reread them before the next movie comes out, so this challenge is coming at the perfect time.
I've read the first 4 and listened to the remaining 3 so not sure how I will accomplish this challenge but either way I think I'll have no problem doing so.

Oregon employers will be required to report fatal work-related motor vehicle accidents to Oregon OSHA beginning Jan. 1, 2007 under recently updated safety and health rules.
Motor vehicle accidents nationally represent one-quarter of the total for workplace deaths. According to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data, motor vehicle deaths on the job rose 2 percent in the
United States during 2005. Motor vehicle accidents have been the leading cause of fatal workplace injuries in Oregon four of the past five years, accounting for 26 percent of fatalities compensable
in the workers' compensation system between 2001 and 2005.
We haven't done everything we can to create truly safe workplaces in Oregon until we address the largest single source of on-the-job fatalities in the state and in the nation - motor vehicles,
said Michael Wood, administrator of Oregon OSHA. And our starting point needs to be a recognition that such deaths are workplace deaths. We need to track them and to treat them with the same
seriousness and careful analysis that we try to provide whenever an employee is killed on the job.
As has been the case for many years, fatal heart attacks that occur at work also must be reported to Oregon OSHA. Not all fatal heart attacks reported to Oregon OSHA result in an investigation.
Workplace deaths (including heart attacks) must be reported to Oregon OSHA at (800) 922-2689 within eight hours of the employer being aware of the incident. Workplace accidents that send three or more
employees to the hospital must also be reported within eight hours while employers must report an incident that requires the overnight hospitalization of a worker within 24 hours.
Oregon OSHA updated reporting requirements in September 2006 following public hearings on proposed rule changes in August.
Additional resources and information about motor vehicle safety at work are available on the Oregon OSHA Web site, www.orosha.org, under "Vehicles" in the A-Z Topic Index.

Oregon OSHA, a division of the Department of Consumer & Business Services, enforces the state's workplace safety and health rules and works to improve workplace safety and health for all Oregon
workers. For more information, go to www.orosha.org. The Department of Consumer and Business Services is Oregon's largest business regulatory and consumer protection agency. For more information, visit

Matt Damon's toilet water challenge, the actor's version of the ALS ice bucket challenge, is everything fans wanted it to be and more. The "Bourne" actor had been nominated by both Jimmy Kimmel and Ben Affleck, and he finally stepped up and followed through. However, he did it in a unique way that will thrill fans. Huffington Post shared the video and details on Monday.
As Matt Damon noted, he was a bit conflicted about doing the ALS ice bucket challenge due to concerns over the California drought and the millions around the world who don't have clean drinking water. However, he still found a way to do the challenge and make a big impression as he did it. Matt Damon's toilet water challenge has, of course, gone viral.
Damon used water out of the toilets in his home for the ALS ice bucket challenge. He noted that the water from his toilets was still more clean than the water many around the world have access to in their everyday lives. Damon, a co-founder of Water.org, went on to nominate Tom Brady, Bono and George Clooney to do the challenge.
Though the ALS ice bucket challenge has had many critics, particularly over the waste of water concern, it's hard to argue with what it has accomplished. Last year during the same timeframe of this year's challenge, July 29 to Aug. 25, the ALS Association raised about $2.5 million. This year, the amount has topped $88.5 million. Will anybody else step up to match Damon's toilet water challenge?

Box Score | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2
IOWA CITY, Iowa -- There's something about second round National Invitational Tournament games for University of Iowa junior Roy Devyn Marble.
After scoring a career-high 31 points in the second round NIT game last season at Oregon, Marble netted 28 points on 9-of-18 shooting, including an 8-of-11 effort from the charity stripe, in the Hawkeyes' 75-63 victory over Stony Brook on in front of a sellout crowd Friday night on Mediacom Court inside Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
"He was phenomenal tonight," said UI head coach Fran McCaffery. "He handled the ball, got to the free throw line and set the tone in a lot of ways. When I look at the stats, I look for things that jump out at me and the thing that jumps out at me is 20 assists and 26 baskets. That applies to our team, and he's the guy."
The performance was Marble's ninth 20-point game this season and the 11th of his Iowa career. It is also the third highest scoring output of the guard's career.
The victory was Iowa's school-record 18th home win this season and advances the team to a NIT quarterfinal game on Wednesday, March 27, at a location to be determined by the outcome of Sunday's Virginia-St. John's game in Charlottesville, Va.
With the score 46-43 with 15 minutes to play, the Hawkeyes used an 8-1 run to build a 54-44 lead. Marble opened the spurt with a pair of free throws before junior Zach McCabe's jumper made the score 50-43. Following a SBU free throw, freshman Anthony Clemmons made 1-of-2 free throws before McCabe's 3-pointer pushed the lead to double digits and forced a Seawolves timeout.
Down 56-46 with 10:25 remaining, Stony Brook scored six straight points to cut the deficit to four. Jameel Warney opened with a layup before Anthony Jackson had a four-point play to make it a 56-52 game.
Iowa had an answer of its own, scoring five straight and 10-of-13 points to build a 66-55 lead. Marble and sophomore Aaron White combined for nine of the 10 points.
"We were running the right plays for the right guys down the stretch," said Marble. "Eric (May) knocked down a big shot, Josh (Oglesby) knocked down a big shot, and Gabe (Olaseni) got the big and-one and knocked the free throw down."
Stony Brook managed to get to within seven points (69-62) with two minutes to play, but Iowa answered again, as it did all night, with a lay-up and-one by sophomore Gabriel Olaseni to push the lead back to double digits (72-62).
"We made the plays down the stretch, and we weren't doing that in the Big Ten season," said Marble. "Now we're starting to do that in this tournament. If we can continue to do that, I think we'll be alright."
Iowa shot 47.3 percent (26-of-55) from the floor and made 8-of-19 3-pointers (42.1) percent; Stony Brook made 24-of-51 field goal attempts (47.1 percent) and was 6-of-16 (37.5 percent) from long range. The Hawkeyes won the rebounding battle, 34-30. Iowa also had five blocks to run its season total to 175 -- a new school record.
White was the only other Hawkeye in double figures, finishing with 13 points on 4-of-10 shooting. He also had a team-high seven rebounds. Werney led a group of three Seawolves in double digits, finishing with 17 points on 7-of-9 shooting to go along with seven boards.
Iowa got off to a sizzling start, making 7-of-9 attempts to take a 17-11 lead at the 14:56 mark. Marble scored 10 of the team's first 12 points. Stony Brook showed its scrappiness, matching nearly every Hawkeye score.
"We wanted to get off to a good start against this team," said Marble. "They have really good guard play. When you have really good guard play, you're always going to be within striking distance, and we know that."
The Seawolves cut the lead to 17-14 on a Dave Coley 3-pointer, and the guard's second triple at the 11:24 mark made it a 21-19 score. After a jumper by Marble pushed the Iowa advantage to 25-22, Stony Brook scored six straight to build a 28-25 lead.
The Hawkeyes took the lead into the break when sophomore Josh Oglesby knocked down a 3-pointer on a set play with the clock winding down to give Iowa a 37-34 advantage. Iowa shot 50 percent (14-of-28) from the floor and 47.1 percent (4-of-7) from long range; Stony Brook made 14-of-27 attempts (51.9 percent) and was 4-of-7 (57.1 percent) from 3-point distance.

Curly Sexy Hair Conditioner from Sexy Hair concepts controls frizz, detangles hair & adds shine.

After shampooing work conditioner into damp hair and rinse.
Great Results!I've been using Curly Sexy Hair Products for years. I've tried other products but I always come back to using their shampoo, conditioner, and curl enhancer mousse. My curls stay so healthy and fresh all day and the shampoo and conditioner does smell nice. Some helpful hints for curly hair: Don't keep wet hair wrapped too long in towel; Pat it very lightly or just squeeze the excess water so you don't drip too much. I was using a hair pick to comb my hair before applying the curl enhancer mousse. I stopped using the hair pick. I just apply the curl enhancer now and it keeps my curls very bouncy and springy. I then let my hair air dry for about 30-45 minutes. Once it's mostly dried, I diffuse it for a couple of minutes then I'm good to go.Jul 12, 2010Curly HappyHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Curly Hair

Great ConditionerI have curly ethnic hair (?). This conditioner works great on my hard to tame hair. Personally I like that is weighs down a little my hair (in other words helps control the frizz). It helps shape my curls and my hair looks shiny and healthy. It smells good too.Apr 7, 2010DanielaHAIR TYPEAfrican American / Curly Hair

We have a special surprise for you today, a ticket giveaway! It's been awhile, but we are excited to give you the opportunity to see not one but two amazing acts on the same bill at Bogarts in Cincinnati. The show is May 9th and we have a some tickets to give away here on ENS. Featured of course is Annie Clark, better known as St. Vincent, who continues on her upward career track, and deservedly so. If you haven't seen St. Vincent live yet, you really should, I think I once described her as being able to "morph between a Disney movie pixie into a guitar rock genius." So yeah, it's worth the trip.
Bogarts is really improving their bookings and I think a show like this is a great one to re-associate yourself with the 'new look' venue.
Oh yeah, did I mention that Shearwater is opening the show? Well, they are and that makes it even more interesting. The band released their eighth album Animal Joy on Sub Pop recently and it's as good a release as the band has offered up in my opinion.
To win the tickets, we are going to use my favorite photo sharing app, Instagram. Take a photo of your favorite piece of St. Vincent or Shearwater memorabilia, or just something related to either band or one of their songs and tag it #ENStix to be entered. A few days before the show, I'll announce the winners and you will be set up to see a great show! Good luck!
Enjoy this song from St. Vincent, which is from the 7″ single she released for this years Record Store Day.
Sorry, comments are closed.

Today, Mitt Romney, who has run twice as a presidential candidate, spoke with MSNBC and said he will not be running for president in 2016. Although most know the saying "third time's a charm," Romney insists he would rather spend his time supporting a fresh Republican candidate. He wants to support a person that epitomizes the "practical conservatives," because he believes that is what the party needs.
During the show he listed a few people who he thought would exemplify the ideology: Paul Ryan, Wisconsin Rep. (of course, since he was Mitt's vice presidential mate in 2012), Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Ohio Senator Rob Portman and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.
Romney didn't just share his thoughts on the 2016 presidential race, he also talked about increasing minimum wages. He thinks the increases shouldn't just stop at the federal level, but believes the nation as a whole should unite and raise minimum wages. His opinion clearly doesn't align with the House Republicans, who have refused this idea. Wonder why he veers from the party line? He believes supporting this can help the Republican party boost their black and Hispanic voters, according to USA Today.
Romney isn't the only Republican who thinks increasing the minimum wage is a good thing. He joins Rick Santorum, and Tim Pawlenty who also believe the party needs to aim for sensible hikes. Santorum made no qualms about the idea, and said the GOP's against raising the minimum wages does not make sense. Later it was reported that Pawlenty summarized his meaning by stating he didn't believe that these wage increases should be pushed "by White House and Senate Democrats, too far too fast," according to Headlines and Global News.
Romney, nevertheless, has not changed his mind and continues to promote the idea that the GOP must convince the hard-working "minority families" who struggle in these economic down times, that the party can and will help them by increasing the minimum wage standards. It appears Romney wants the party not to just talk-the-talk, but show real action and believes this is one of many ways to "convince the people."

Heather Campbell has been appointed the Chief Executive Officer of Landcare Australia Limited and will commence her new role from November 9th. Heather takes over from Brian Scarsbrick AM who was Landcare Australias inaugural CEO and lead the organisation for 20 years.
Heather is currently National Operations Manager with Cheetham Salt and was previously the Group General Manager of Operating Risk and Sustainability for Amcor. She has extensive experience in executive management, highly developed skills in leadership, sustainability, environmental and risk management in corporations and the not for profit sector in Australia and internationally. Currently a Director of Earthwatch Australia, Heather has a passion for environmental research and education, and believes fully in the benefits of linking scientists with enthusiastic individuals. Heathers educational qualifications are in Agricultural Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Occupational Hygiene and Business. Heather said:
The Landcare movement is pivotal in Australia to protecting and repairing the environment. Its unique link between community groups, government and business has resulted in many degraded areas being improved. This continues to result in enhanced waterways and coastal environments, protection of wildlife habitats and improved farm productivity through reduced erosion and salinity.
Landcare Australia Limited can play a key role in linking all stakeholders together to deliver tangible improvements to the environment through the provision of resources to the local Landcare and Coastcare groups. My vision is that it will be the key avenue for the business community to link into government and the many local groups to provide the community groups on the ground with the broad range of resources they need to deliver agreed environmental improvements.
I feel extremely privileged to be entrusted with leading an organisation that is part of the Landcare movement and which can help to make a real difference to the environments we live and work in.
Landcare Board Chairman Jerry Ellis: Heather will be a tremendous asset to the organisation. She brings top level leadership skills and is exceptionally qualified to lead Landcare Australia into a new era.
