Your transfer options
Private transfers
Your goal is to reach your accommodation as quickly and hassle free as possible - why not arrive in style by booking a private airport transfer? These are available in many locations worldwide, and could be a private taxi, minibus or even coach. Prices are per vehicle and child seats can be pre-booked too.
Shuttle transfers
Shuttles are a shared transfer option and are a cheap, fast and effective way of travelling to and from your accommodation in a city or country you may be unfamiliar with (they're cheaper as they won't go to private addresses/villas and a door-to-door service cannot be guaranteed). Child seats are not available on shuttles; also, on return you will need to reconfirm your pick-up time. These are available in many locations worldwide, and may range in size from a minibus to a large coach.
Speedy Shuttle transfers
Speedy Shuttles are a shared transfer option with a reduced number of stops per route. They are a cheap, fast and effective way of travelling to and from your accommodation in a place you may be unfamiliar with, though a door-to-door service cannot be guaranteed. Depending on demand, the vehicle used for your airport transfer or shuttle service may range in size from a minibus to a large coach.
Minibus transfers
Minibus transfers are perfect for the larger family or small groups who want to travel together. Book your own private minibus transfer and you won't have to share with others. Avoid the queues and hassle of trying to find several taxis to transport you and your group to your accommodation by pre-booking a minibus transfer online now.
Coach transfers
If you are travelling on holiday in a large group, then the best option for you is a private coach transfer. Our coach transfers mean that you can avoid the hassle and stress of waiting for several taxis at the airport and ensure that your whole party arrive at your destination together. You will be met on arrival and shown to your private coach which will transfer you to your accommodation.
Limousine transfers
Pre-booking an airport limousine means you will have your very own chauffeur waiting in arrivals to whisk you off in style. Our limousines are all top of the range models, such as S Class Mercedes, and are all driven by uniformed chauffeurs. Whether you are travelling on a business trip, for an anniversary or birthday, or even on a girls' weekend away, a limousine transfer is definitely a memorable and glamorous way to arrive!
Wheelchair transfers
We offer wheelchair accessible taxis in many destinations which are suitable for those using a wheelchair, and can cater for any special requirements you may have. Wheelchair accessible vehicles have either a rear tail lift or ramp for wheelchair access. You will not have to get out of your wheelchair and your driver will assist you in and out of the vehicle if needed.

BMW has already celebrated the silver anniversary of its V12-powered 7 Series flagship by offering a special 25 Years Anniversary Edition of the car for 2013, but now the automaker has released a visual display of the engine's quarter-century in the nose of its big Autobahn cruisers.

Created for the U.S. alone, and in a batch of just 15 cars, this 7 Series commemorates a quarter century of BMW making automotive engine blocks with a dozen combustion chambers.

"On the 40th anniversary of the greatest season in NFL history--Don Shula's perfect '72 Dolphins-- it is perfectly fitting that Hard Knocks is heading to Miami to capture the start of a new era for one of the league's proudest teams," NFL Films president Steve Sabol said. "After Hard Knocks' hiatus last summer, I know our team at NFL Films can't wait to get back on the field."
"We are excited that the premier company in sports filmmaking history, NFL Films, and HBO Sports have chosen the Miami Dolphins to appear on their award-winning series Hard Knocks," Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said. "We are looking forward to connecting with our many fans across the country as the program chronicles our 2012 training camp. The series will highlight the outstanding men who comprise our team and represent our organization admirably, both on and off the field, as they compete for a coveted position on our roster.
"The Miami Dolphins have long been synonymous with success on the filed as evidenced by our five Super Bowl appearances and the only perfect season in NFL history That heritage serves as a constant reminder to our players and staff of the great legacy that has been left for us to uphold. Our team embraces that rich past and looks confidently to the future as we begin this journey back to the top of the NFL."
Among the stories HBO is expected to chronicle: Philbin taking over as a first-year head coach and the quarterback competition between Matt Moore, David Garrard and rookie Ryan Tannehill.
"All the decisions that have been made this offseason have had one guiding principle -- will it help our players and organization reach its full potential? This one is no different," Philbin said. "We are convinced that our affiliation with NFL Films and HBO will allow football fans everywhere an opportunity to comprehend the significant sacrifices and demands that our players endure each day along their journey in training camp as a Miami Dolphin. We eagerly await the opening of training camp on July 26 and the 2012 NFL regular season that lies ahead of us."

Ozzy Osbourne- One Up The B-Side Lyrics
[b-side track]
Get it up, keep it up as good as you can
The change is as good as the rest
Is it to be or not to be when it hits the fan
This is the ultimate test.
One up the b-side
One up the b-side
Sing it or shout it out,the bent overture
Let me hear it at my request
You may think its funny but i don't know why
It gets it all off your chest.

One up the b-side.
One up the b-side.
One up the b-side.
I gotta do it just another time

Op-Ed: No 'Spring' For Saudi Women
Talia Carner
Aug 3, 2011 in
In the midst of the Arab awakening, women fighting oppression—in Saudi or any other Muslim nation—is doomed to fade away into a dark night.
Earlier this year, the world watched with bated breath as Egyptian women took to the streets alongside men to protest Mubarak's rule and demand democracy. Cynically, men encouraged women's participation—only to betray them once Mubarak was removed. Merely a few months later, Egypt—formerly the more modern among Muslim nations—has regressed into gender apartheid the like of which the country has not been seen in decades, and "modesty squads" roam neighborhoods in search of errant women whose appearance or behavior defy the Extreme Islam's dictates.
Does anyone believe that Saudi women will fare better in their quest for the right to drive? In 2010, the Global Gender Gap Report ranked Saudi Arabia 129th out of 134 countries for gender parity (down from spot #114 in 2006.) Islamic patriarchal system has kept Saudi women not just from driving, but from traveling, working and even signing medical forms without the permission of a male guardian—any male relative, even their own minor child.
Gender apartheid is the basis for the entire Muslim social structure. The Arabic word "fitna" means both civil disorder and beautiful woman. In his 2004 article, "Female Desire and Islamic Trauma," Islam scholar Daniel Pipes explains:
"The entire Muslim social structure… goes to great lengths to separate the sexes and reduce contact between them. This explains such customs as the covering of women's faces and the separation of women's residential quarters, or the harem. Many other institutions serve to reduce female power over men, such as her need for a male's permission to travel, work, marry, or divorce. Revealingly, a traditional Muslim wedding took place between two men – the groom and the bride's guardian." The reason, Dr. Pipes explains, is rooted by the view that a woman's sexual desire is so great, that believers are obsessed with the dangers posed by her presence. "So strong are her [sexual] needs …she represents the forces of unreason and disorder. …She must be contained, for her unbridled sexuality poses a direct danger to the social order."
For that reason, in 2002, in Saudi Arabia, religious policemen prevented fourteen-year-old schoolgirls from leaving a burning school building because they were not wearing their headscarves and abayahs. Fifteen girls died.
The Quran was written long before automobiles were invented. Therefore, it did not specifically prohibit women from driving. It did not even forbid women from riding horses or camels. And in a society obsessed with the modesty of women's dress, cars actually hide women better than any other methods of transportation. Saudi Arabia's leaders' explanation that women driving is unsafe and leads to sexual impropriety is entirely false, as women are routinely pinched and groped through the chadors when walking in the streets, and are often sexually harassed by taxi drivers—or even raped by their own chauffeurs.
On the other hand, driving women around has created a source of income for many Saudi men: there are hundreds of thousands of chauffeurs in Saudi Arabia. Removing the religious fatwa against women driving would deeply affect an entire profession.
Phyllis Chesler has written extensively that subjugating women is behind the brutal misogynistic Islamic practices such as female genital mutilation, stoning and immolation of women, beatings, forced marriages, child marriages and polygamy. Now that Muslim feminists are taking to the streets in protest for the right to drive, they are beaten by mobs, yet have no legal protection even in cases of barbaric assault or rape. Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, commented at FoxNews.com "… [Saudi] women's rights activists have very little [legal] protection for their physical well-being …This is the problem in a corrupt society…. Republics of fear oppress and repress their citizens by allowing criminals to do the dirty work of the government. It allows the government to keep [its] hands free."
Saudi Arabia is the only country that prohibits women from driving. But viewing the protesting women in context of the men's dread of female power to cause civil disorder, it is clear that breaking any taboo carries the unthinkable threat of women seeking rights for representation in government, in marriage and divorce, or in property ownership.
In the midst of the Arab awakening, women fighting oppression—in Saudi or any other Muslim nation—is doomed to fade away into a dark night, because the power to relinquish control lies in the hands of their oppressors: men, government, and Islamic religious leadership.

Anyone else having trouble finding a LMP-H180 lamp for the Sony VPL-HS20? Sony doesn't sell them any more. Sellers seem to have bad quality copies. First one I ordered was DOA. Second one emits a burning smell. Is there any seller with a good, reliable LMP-H180?

The problem is that many manufacturers stop supporting projector bulbs beyond 8-10 years and if you find an OEM lamp assembly it will be with a vendor who still has a few in stock. And if they still have it in stock it's because they are not widely known. One such company is Mendtronix who claims to have the assembly in stock for $389.
They also sell their own 'house brand' version for $225.
Or you may want to explore the option getting an authentic Philips bulb in an after-market assembly like the one listed on Amazon by Lamp Monsters for $249.
These are fairly expensive options for such an old projector and you may have to ask yourself whether putting that money toward a new projector is a better idea.

Take several pictures of the lamp in and out of its cage and post them it along with the lamps dimensions.
Is the lamp completely sealed ?
Does it rear vent?
Are there air slots behind the front Glass?
what does it say on the lamp itself?
The folks here should be able to point you to an OEM Lamp that will be much cheaper and of a better quality.

UK: Outlook set fair for Nichols, but H1 profits hammered by Pakistan legal loss
By Olly Wehring | 24 July 2014
- Half-year net profits total GBP1.6m (US$2.7m) as US$13.8m fine takes toll
- Stripping out fine, net profits in six months to end of June rise by 13.2% to GBP7.8m
- Sales in H1 increase by 2.7% to GBP56.6m
- Operating profits jump by 12.1% to GBP9.9m
Nichols released its half-year interim statement earlier today
Nichols has reported a healthy set of numbers for the first half of 2014, but its bottom line has taken a pummeling from a legal ruling in Pakistan.
While sales and operating profits in the six months to the end of June fared well, net profits in the period totalled GBP1.6m (US$2.7m) compared to GBP6.9m in the corresponding period in the year prior.
Earlier this month, Nichols was hit with a fine of PKR1.4m (US$13.8m) after the Pakistani High Court found in favour of Gul Bottlers, which had claimed loss of profits from a production and distribution deal in 2011. Prior to the ruling, the company had been braced for a possible fine of around $3.4m.
In the UK, sales in the half-year increased by 8%, with sales of the CSD portfolio rising by 11%. Still sales in the country were up by 3% for Nichols. Outside of the UK, the company saw sales fall by 12%, although this was blamed on "a shift in timing of shipments of Vimto concentrate to the Middle East".
Nichols said: "We expect international sales in the second half of 2014 to show improved performance in comparison to both the period and the second half of 2013."
The company concluded that its full-year performance will come in "in line with current expectations".

It was a weekend in which the Red Sox confronted a power hitter on whom they once gambled in a trade and lost. In Seattle, the team ran into Wily Mo Pena, the outfielder whose prodigious power potential once prompted the Sox to deal away pitcher Bronson Arroyo in what was arguably the worst trade ever made under GM Theo Epstein.
Pena never panned out with the Sox. He ended up being dealt away after less than two seasons in Boston, and has bounced around independent ball, the minors and majors ever since. He remains a player with unrivaled raw power who has never been able to translate tools into results on a consistent basis in the majors.
But that's ancient history. Of arguably more interest during the weekend series was another player whom the Sox did not have to face in Seattle.
In the three-team deal that saw the Mariners send Erik Bedard and Josh Fields to Boston, Seattle had initially set its sights on a player who has enjoyed one of the most impressive offensive seasons by a Sox minor leaguer in years.
The Mariners needed a major league-ready player as part of the Bedard deal, and with a pronounced need at catcher, it was obvious that they would ask about Sox catching prospect Ryan Lavarnway. And it was just as obvious that the Red Sox would respond with what one source familiar with the negotiations characterized as a "quick no."
It was the Sox' unwillingness to trade the catcher that set in motion the involvement of the Dodgers as a third party to the deal. While the Sox were willing to include Chih-Hsien Chiang, they needed to land Trayvon Robinson from the Dodgers for minor league catcher Tim Federowicz and pitcher Stephen Fife. The Sox then spun Robinson to Seattle (who promoted the potential power-hitting outfielder immediately to the majors) along with Chiang for Bedard.
Lavarnway, meanwhile, was unlikely to go anywhere. According to a major league source, the Sox received numerous inquiries on him from both American League and National League teams, but in most instances, he was off limits, for obvious reasons.
Lavarnway is amidst his first slump since getting promoted to Triple-A Pawtucket in June. In August, he's now 4-for-37 (.108) with 11 strikeouts and a .498 OPS. However, his numbers in 53 games in Triple-A remain gaudy.
The 24-year-old is hitting .307 with a .390 OBP, .609 slugging mark and .999 OPS along with 15 homers since his June promotion to the PawSox. Between Double-A and Triple-A this year, he has already amassed 29 homers this year, the most by a Sox minor leaguer since Earl Snyder hit 36 in 2004, and tied for fourth most in the minors this season.
Yet while Lavarnway already does have a career high in homers this year, his performance at the highest level of the minors has been very much in line with his Red Sox career. Since the start of the 2009 season, the Yale product has been easily the most consistent offensive player in the Red Sox system.
Before his eruption to open his career in Pawtucket, his performance moving up the ladder had been steady. In a full year at Single-A Greenville (2009), a half-year at High-A Salem (2010) and partial seasons in Double-A Portland in 2010 and 2011, Lavarnway had batting averages between .284 and .288, on-base percentages that ranged from .360 to .395 and slugging marks that ranged from .487 to .540. He had 21 homers in 2009 and 22 last year before setting a new career high this season.
Based on the consistency of his performance, talent evaluators both inside and outside the Red Sox organization consider his bat major league-ready – part of the reason why Seattle was drawn to him.
"He's not in the big leagues. He's still facing Triple-A pitching. Who knows at that next level what the transition will look like?" Sox farm director Mike Hazen noted recently. "But I have no doubt he could go up [to the majors] and handle it offensively with his approach and swing."
Yet the Sox have remained patient – and are likely to continue to do so – with regards to giving Lavarnway an opportunity in the majors. In an interesting twist, that fact reflects the organization's high regard for Lavarnway's future.
When the Sox drafted Lavarnway out of Yale in the sixth round of the 2008 draft, they did so believing that he would hit (after all, as a sophomore, he led NCAA Division 1 in both batting average and slugging), but with little optimism about his ability to develop defensively to the point where he could be a big league catcher. After all, he had switched from the outfield to catcher as a sophomore, was limited to serving as a DH for much of his junior year by a hand injury and remained extremely crude when he was behind the plate.
In his time as a professional, however, Lavarnway has achieved what members of the organization describe as little short of stunning gains as a defensive catcher. He has become more athletic behind the plate, resulting in across-the-board improvements, particularly in his technique.
Between Double-A and Triple-A, he has thrown out 35 percent of would-be base stealers this year while committing just one error. The Sox have consistently seen him get pop times on home-to-second throws of 1.95-1.97 seconds, in line with a big league average. His blocking and receiving have both made significant advances thanks to his improved setup, athleticism and flexibility behind the plate.
"He's so damn accurate. You never see him misfire because of the ability to get his legs under him and get the proper alignment. He's got good throwing mechanics and put the ball right where he wants it," said Sox roving catching instructor Chad Epperson. "With Lavarnway, you realize, 'Damn, he's just a results guy.'
"That's the bottom line. If you put him and [former Sox minor league catcher Tim] Federowicz and [Triple-A catcher Luis] Exposito and watched them do a showcase, you're going to look at Exposito and Federowicz and grade them out higher just on the look. But at the end of the day, when a manager goes out and fills out his game report, Lavarnway's caught everything, he's blocked everything and he's thrown a guy out. You can't turn your back on that.
"He may not be that flashy catcher, but he is a results guy, and at the end of the day, that's what a big league club wants – results."
That said, Lavarnway is not a finished product. One talent evaluator of another AL organization suggested that Lavarnway could be a DH in the majors now, and that while he believes that the prospect has a future behind the plate, the catcher needs more time to develop. That is especially true of game-calling, where the complexity of handling pitchers' repertoires in the upper levels of the minors increases dramatically – a fact that Lavarnway himself acknowledges.
"I think game-calling is something that, as I play more, and play more with guys who have very good command of their stuff, it's just going to continue to get better," said Lavarnway. "Physically, the actual catching aspect gets easier [while moving up in the minors]. Pitch-calling is where it gets more complex.
"You have guys who throw four, five, six pitches to both sides of the plate. You have 12 options. You don't want to have a guy up there shaking his head all day. Getting with him before the game, talking to the other catchers, formulating a gameplan becomes more important."
Throughout the system, both evaluators and pitchers who have worked with Lavarnway suggest that he has made obvious strides, even as there is an acknowledgment that there are more that must be made. Yet the 24-year-old insists that he will do whatever it takes to establish his credentials as a solid defensive backstop who is capable of delivering well above-average offense.
"I do want to be known as a complete player. I've worked really hard to get myself to where I am. I'm going to continue to do that, because I don't just want to be a bat," said Lavarnway. "Being a quality defensive catcher in the big leagues is something that I want to do more than anything else. I'll do what it takes to get there."
Notably, that includes waiting.
In the past, the Sox have promoted both position players and pitchers from Double-A to the majors. But whereas the difference between Double-A and the big leagues might be relatively minimal for an outfielder, it can be huge for a catcher, particularly given the issues of game-calling.
That is something that can be addressed only with experience. And as of now, Lavarnway has caught fewer than 200 games in the minors while splitting signal-calling duties at virtually every level at which he's played. (The Sox often like to split catching duties at different levels to give their catchers the opportunity to do drill and technical work on alternating days on which they serve as DH.)
If Lavarnway were an outfielder or first baseman, the Red Sox might have already commenced an experiment to explore his versatility at other positions on the field, thus increasing the number of potential avenues to the majors for him. But in the case of Lavarnway, the Sox' conviction that he can be a starting catcher in the majors in the long term has made it more difficult to engage in such experiments.
Simply put, the team remains committed to the idea that he needs time behind the plate in order to maximize his long-term potential. If that means a slower path to the majors, then so be it. Lavarnway buys into the approach.
"Getting there initially, as much as it is a passion and I have a sense of urgency about it, the biggest thing I've heard from player development personnel and other players is that the hardest part is to stay there," Lavarnway said. "I want to make sure that whenever I do break in, if and when, that I'm ready to be there and I belong there and I can continue to play there at a high level."
Right now, he is showing the potential to do just that. If Lavarnway's defense develops to the point where he is considered close to average behind the plate, then his track record as a hitter suggests that he could become a well above-average major league catcher.
The average big league catcher in 2011 entered Sunday hitting .244 with a .315 OBP, .382 slugging mark and .697 OPS; Lavarnway's performance in the minors suggests he can blow past such modest numbers.
It is part of the reason why the Sox protected him in talks with clubs at the trade deadline. Potential big league backups are expendable (hence the ability of the club to part with Federowicz, whose bat was not going to permit him to be a starter for the Red Sox). A player with a chance to emerge as an above-average big league starter at a position where offense is at a premium is not.
And right now, in both word and deed, the Sox are showing that they believe Lavarnway can be just such a catcher.
"We're very confident that he's a future major league catcher," said Hazen. "Everyone is entitled to their opinion. … [But] a lot of those same people [who doubt Lavarnway's defensive abilities] probably thought that Kevin Youkilis couldn't hit, and a lot of major league scouts that are talking probably said Dustin Pedroia won't be a big league player.
"Given his makeup, his work ethic, where he's come and the time he's put in for the last four years, if there's any guy I'm betting on to achieve his goal of being a major league catcher, it's that guy," he added.
Had the Sox not believed in that notion, then Lavarnway might have been in the opposing dugout this weekend, alongside Wily Mo Pena. Instead, he remains in Pawtucket, with his first big league opportunity in Boston not yet having arrived, but looming on the not-too-distant horizon.
Dale, Michael and Jerry dig into the details of this draft for the Patriots with ESPN's Mike Reiss.

Ballet San Jose Silicon Valley
Rating: 0 stars 0 0 review 92
PO Box 1666 San Jose CA 95109 USA
Ballet San Jose's mission is to present professional ballet productions, performed to the highest artistic standard, that are accessible to the broadest possible audience possible, and which contribute to the cultural needs of the community. The Ballet is committed to arts education for children and adults, through community outreach programs and a professional ballet school.
Ballet San Jose presents a season of live ballet performances to more than 60,000 audience patrons annually. Through the Ballet School and the Education and Outreach Program offerings, "Student Matinees", "Ballet Class", and "First Step", a full year of once-weekly paid ballet classes, BSJ is committed to opening the world of the arts to children for whom there is little or no access. These programs introduce 5,000-7,000 children each year to the Ballet, sparking their interest and imagination, and providing them an avenue to pursue their creativity. BSJ also offers a special "Children's Series", which are shortened versions of our full- length ballets, especially designed for young children and their families. We are able to provide these performances at substantially reduced ticket prices, so they are affordable to broader Bay Area audiences. This popular program has helped the Ballet expand its audience to the lower socio-economic demographic. Finally, the Ballet's professional school makes BSJ unique among dance schools in the South Bay Area, with students benefiting from the close connection to an active, professional ballet company, and enjoying company dancers as frequent guest instructors. Additionally, students in both the Open and Professional divisions are cast in company productions to supplement the 'corps de ballet'. Students frequently perform at benefactor and sponsor functions, in addition to public events (e.g., Downtown SJ Holiday Parade), expanding community awareness of the Ballet School.

Edoc Systems Group, developers of Helm Marine Operations Software (Helm), confirmed that Offshore Supply Vessel provider, Bordelon Marine, has chosen Helm HSQE Manager and Helm Onboard to manage their vessel maintenance, safety and compliance. Helm Onboard will be installed on all Bordelon vessels, but the first installation will be on their new Stingray series 260' class DP2 OSV, which is slated for sea trials in May 2013.
Helm, which is approaching its 15th anniversary, will provide a digitized layer of efficiency to Bordelon's already exceptional safety record. The software provides a central system for Bordelon to manage their inspections and audits as well as any deficiencies, non-conformities, or observations that may arise. To assist vessel crew with the mounting administrative duties onboard the vessels, Helm will provide full synchronization with Bordelon's vessels to share changes to standard operation procedures and close the loop on maintenance requests and other compliance-related items.

A warning to all of you guys; do not mix your D3 needs with your love affairs.

A warning to all of you guys; do not mix your D3 needs with your love affairs.
Cheers and good luck to all of you to get an invite before the weekend (long weekend for us canadians)!
*talks in a low slow voice* That's just nastyyGF: Hey hun, what would make you happy?
ME: Right now? Well I could sure use an invite to the D3 beta...
Fail. Are you 12 years old? Your answer to "what would make you happy" is Diablo!? I'm anxious for D3, too, but if my girlfriend is looking for ways to make me happy, there are a few new moves I've been wanting to try out.
10/07/2011 10:28 AMPosted by PredatOP that sounds like something Tim the Toolman Taylor would say if he was a gamer, you just upgraded to [Mancard+1]
10/07/2011 10:31 AMPosted by LorenAll Blizzard staff are incredibly good looking and charismatic, and as such they are all married or spoken for already unfortunately.
Double fail. There's a lot more to happiness than a physical relationship.
Triple fail? (not on you Giraffasaur but on the failure you quoted)
1. You should be with a girlfriend that gets your humour and appreciates it, like Orkasm was mentioning.
2. If you need the opportunity of your gf asking "What would make you happy?" To try out any new moves or anything along those lines, then you fail hard. Man up, grow a pair and just bring it up/do it when you want to do it. Don't explore the physical aspects of the relationship one step at a time if it's based on how many times per month you're "bummed out" and looking for pity.
Just some responses in this thread reek of Pu$$y whippings.
GF: What if I madly fall in love with that person and decide to stay there?
ME: I would be absolutely crushed - nothing would ever give me joy again.
GF: Even a beta key?
ME: Of course not.
GF: I love you even though you're a giant nerd. I'm cooking you dinner.
ME: Actually that sounds great. I feel better already. I was being really silly about a stupid video game.
