Recurring Role
In this episode 2 Hive ships are destroyed by each other. This brings the total to twelve since the expedition arrived in the galaxy.
McKay: Look, in a mechanical, Newtonian universe, not a problem. I mean, you know enough variables, you can predict the outcome; but quantum physics blows that out of the water.
This is the exact same argument that Carter used in the SG-1 episode "Prophecy."
Behind Carter's desk in her office are framed photos of people from her Stargate SG-1 days. Pictured from left to right are Teal'c (Christopher Judge), Cassandra Fraiser (Colleen Rennison), Daniel Jackson (Michael Shanks), Jack O'Neill (Richard Dean Anderson) and herself fishing, and her father Jacob Carter (Carmen Argenziano).
This episode's premise about the Replicators' attack on the Wraith through their food source (humans) is similar to the Stargate SG-1 Season 2 episode "Show and Tell" in which the Re'tu attempted to destroy the Goa'uld through attrition by wiping out their source of hosts (also humans).
McKay: That's it. That's why they're coming. They're tracking his ship. Think about it a single hive off by itself out in the middle of nowhere, orbiting a supposedly uninhabited planet. That's bound to raise a few eyebrows ... (he looks at the Wraith and flinches a little) ... I mean, if you had eyebrows.
McKay: I've been looking into that, and it's not very promising.
Sheppard: You're the one who activated it in the first place!
McKay: Well, that was easy ... well, actually it was spectacularly difficult, but then every thing's relative.
Carter: Rodney.
Woolsey: As you said, the circumstances have changed. Colonel Sheppard, you've had the most experience dealing with the Wraith. Do you seriously think this is a good idea?
Sheppard: I think it's not your call.
Ronon: You're the one who said it's impossible to see the future.
McKay: Yeah, I was thinking about that. I realized that quantum uncertainty doesn't necessarily preclude the possibility of seeing probable futures. It's like blackjack: you never know exactly what's gonna happen next, but a card counter can certainly increase the odds in his favor – and frankly, this feels like hitting on an eighteen.
Sheppard: It's more like doubling down against a ten.
Carter: Mr. Woolsey! How was your trip?
Woolsey: Well, spending a day in quarantine on the Midway Station wasn't exactly my idea of a good time, but I suppose it beats a three-week journey on the Daedalus.
Sheppard: All right – from what Teyla says, these people sound a little skittish. You can bet that four heavily-armed strangers showing up out of nowheres gonna set 'em off a little, so let's be on our best behavior, children.
Carter: How's the patient, Doctor?
Keller: Well, from what I can tell, he seems to be suffering from a kind of lymphatic cancer. There's not a lot I can do for him here.
Woolsey: Have you detected any physical anomalies that might be related to his visions?
(Carter looks at him with irritation.)
Woolsey: Sorry. Force of habit.
Woolsey: I've never met a Wraith face-to-face before.
Carter: Well, you're in for a treat.
(The door opens and Woolsey gestures to Sam.)
Woolsey: Ladies first.
Wraith Prisoner: I believe among your people it is customary to shake hands. (laughs) Just a little Wraith humor.
Ronon: That's it? That's the super weapon?
McKay: What were you expecting.
Ronon: Big gun. Something that goes boom.
McKay: Allow me to make a prediction. This will be a complete waste of time.
Sheppard: I knew you were gonna say that.
Woolsey: Well, this is awkward.
Carter: Yes.
Woolsey: For the record, I thought I was making the right call.
Carter: It was a difficult situation, for everyone.
Woolsey: I just have one last question. How did you know the two Wraith ships would fire on each other?
Carter: I didn't... you going to put that in your report?
Woolsey: It might be better if I didn't. There may be such a thing as being too thorough.
Carter: Right.
Wraith: So all it took was the destruction of my ship for you to finally trust me?
Sheppard: Oh not true, I still don't trust you. (To Marine) Take him to the lab, he's got work to do.
Wraith: (sighs)
We find out that what Dr. Keller told Teyla at the end of "Missing" was that she is pregnant. This pregnancy is actually written in because Rachel Luttrell (the actress who plays Teyla) is pregnant in real life.

Woolsey: Have you detected any physical anomalies that might be related to his visions?
(Carter looks at him questioningly.)
Woolsey: Sorry. Force of habit.
This line is most likely just Woolsey (Robert Picardo) apologizing for reneging on his promise to Carter that "I have no intention of getting involved in the day-to-day operations of the base" and acknowledging that he can, as he admitted earlier, "on occasion, be a bit of a busybody." However, the mention of a "force of habit" is possibly a reference to Picardo's previous role as the Doctor on Star Trek Voyager.
Davos: Never before have I sensed that the future of so many worlds can turn on the actions of so few.
This line is reminiscent of a quote by Winston Churchill at the height of the Battle of Britain: "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few."

IRVING, Texas (AP) - The Dallas Cowboys today hired Hudson Houck as offensive line coach.
Houck returns o the job he had on two Super Bowl-winning Dallas
teams in the 1990s.
Houck was swept out in Miami when former Cowboys coach Bill
Parcells fired most of the Dolphins coaches after taking over as
executive vice president of football operations.
Houck replaces new Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano, who also
was Cowboys assistant head coach. That title went to offensive
coordinator Jason Garrett, when he turned down head coaching
overtures in Atlanta and Baltimore to stay with the Cowboys.
Houck coached the Dallas offensive line from 1993 to 2001.
Former Cowboys running back Emmitt Smith averaged a career-best
5.3 yards per carry and was the Super Bowl MVP in Houck's first
Dallas won the Super Bowl again two years later.

Hi there,
I'm trying to solve one complicated post listing in categories. I'd like to display a three newest posts on a first level category differently than other posts.
To understand my problem, please see this screenshot.
The top level category displays three newest posts (float left blocks with pictures) and three older posts below it differently. Once you click a red button below them, another six posts should show (all six with the same style as three older posts, that means 6 posts instead of three).
Other thing is a subcategory (eg. Photos - Whatever). The subcategory should display ONLY six posts with same style as three non-float posts.
I have no idea how to solve this. I was trying to search for some is_first_page (in listing) function but I didn't find anything like that. It also doesn't solves the first-level and second-level difference.
Thanks a lot for your help...

Your Toddler: Month 20
This month: Big-Kid BedsMost parents transition toddlers from crib to bed between the ages of one and a half and three years old. Not quite there yet? Take these steps first: Lower the crib mattress as far as it will go, and install a crib tent, which is a mesh tent that covers the top of the crib to keep him secured. Ready to take the plunge? Let your tot help you put his big boy bed together — it'll help him feel more ownership.

How do you potty-train a toddler?
Why does my toddler melt down at birthday parties?
I'll do that myself, thank you
Your little rebel may be resisting every attempt you make at feeding, changing, getting him in the car seat, washing hands…just about anything. Toddlers this age like to feel like they're in control, so offer lots of opportunities for him to "help" or make his own choices. Let him feed himself, for example (even if it's messy), and if he says he's done after two bites, so be it. You can also try conning your kid by asking things like "Do you want to bring your teddy for the ride, or your truck?" as you climb in the car instead of "Will you get in your car seat please?" or "Get in the car seat now," which are both likely to elicit big, fat "no's."

Rachael Taylor
Agent Susie Dunn
Rachael Taylor plays Agent Susie Dunn in the NBC midseason drama "Crisis."
Taylor's appearance in the 2007 global hit "Transformers," produced by Steven Spielberg and directed by Michael Bay, brought her international attention. She then starred in the lead role in the psychological thriller "Shutter," which earned over $50 million in U.S. box office.
For her role in 2008's "Bottle Shock," which premiered at Sundance Film Festival, Taylor was named by the festival as one of the 7 Fresh Faces in Film.
Taylor returned to her native Australia to star in "Cedar Boys" and then shot the feature "Summer Coda," which was the first film to sell out at the 2010 Melbourne International Film Festival and was released later that year.
In 2011, Taylor co-starred in "Red Dog," which became the eighth largest box office hit in Australia and the biggest-selling Australian DVD of all time. The film dominated the 2011 Inside Film Awards, having been nominated in nine categories and winning seven, including the best feature film award.
Other films in which Taylor has co-starred include "Darkest Hour," with Emile Hirsch and the romantic comedy "Any Questions for Ben."
On the TV side, Taylor had roles on both "Charlie's Angels" and "666 Park Avenue."
Taylor is also the face of Bonds Australia, a major clothing retailer.

Bond Risk Falls in Australia, Credit-Default Swap Prices Show
The cost of insuring Australian corporate bonds from non-payment decreased, according to traders of credit-default swaps.
The Markit iTraxx Australia index fell 1 basis point to 158 as of 10:33 a.m. in Sydney, Credit Agricole SA prices show. The measure has traded between 128.2 and 182.8 this year, according to CMA, which is owned by CME Group Inc. and compiles prices quoted by dealers in the privately negotiated market.
The Markit iTraxx Asia index of 40 investment-grade borrowers outside Japan was unchanged at 167.5 basis points as of 8:33 a.m. in Hong Kong, Credit Agricole prices show. The index rose 1.5 basis points to 166.8 last week, CMA prices show.
The Markit iTraxx Japan index was unchanged at 173 basis points as of 9:34 a.m. in Tokyo, Deutsche Bank AG prices show. The index rose 3.3 basis points to 171.9 last week, according to CMA.
Credit-default swap indexes are benchmarks for insuring bonds against default and traders use them to speculate on credit quality. A drop signals improving perceptions of creditworthiness, while an increase suggests the opposite.
The swap contracts pay the buyer face value in exchange for the underlying securities if a borrower fails to meet its debt agreements. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.

Admittedly I don't sketch often, but when I do they are quick and dirty. I was exploring a new type of interface size and user-control, so I ended up sketching through 200+ pieces in this manner. So a lot more to show :)

Dear Heloise: I saw your hint in a column about fun things to use as bookmarks. Please add a word of caution about using such items in library books, and especially if they are something you want to keep.
I work in a library, and you would not believe the important papers that people leave in books when they return them. Yesterday, we called someone about a beautiful handmade bookmark we found, but I also have found money, credit-card receipts, MRI results, bills/invoices and lease agreements. Last week, a gentleman asked if we had found two envelopes with checks to the IRS stuck in a book. Our library does make an effort to track down the owners of such materials, but perhaps other libraries don't have the time or staff to do that. - Helen in Colorado
Oh my. Your hint is one that I hope folks will pay attention to. - Heloise
Dear Heloise: Your item on what to do with plastic grocery bags brought to mind what I do with mine:
I flatten them in a box, and when full, I drop it off at the local food bank. Some charity resale shops accept them.
Major grocery stores have plastic-bag recycling boxes by the doors.
Use wadded-up plastic bags for padding in packing stuff to ship.
Good for storing some kinds of food or placing messy garbage in until it can be thrown away.
Good for storing nonfood items or carrying your wet swimsuit and towel back from swimming. - Milicent, via e-mail
Dear Heloise: The other night when I took my shower, the water would not shut off. I had to call a plumber to help. I feel every member of a household needs to know where the water and gas shut-off lines are. Now I know where mine are, and I marked them. This could happen not just in the shower but in the clothes washer. - Dorothy J., Youngstown, Ohio
Dear Dorothy: It's very important for homeowners, and especially women who live alone, to know where the main water cutoff is. And to know how to shut off the water to the toilet. Look for the cutoff valve coming out of the wall going to the toilet. Also, mark it with red tape or nail polish so that you (or anyone else) can spot it quickly when needed. - Heloise
Dear Heloise: It really bothers me to go to a restroom and find that someone has carelessly forgotten to flush the toilet. It is a common courtesy to do this. I encourage all moms of young ones to train their children to flush the toilet after using it. - A Reader, via e-mail
Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or e-mail it to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Nick Franklin and the Winter Meetings
As far as the update goes, the Mariners are no longer able to sign Mike Napoli since he signed a 3 year/$39m contract with the Red Sox. Other than that, they've been connected to pretty much every single hitter on the free agent market. At least, every hitter that could actually add something of value to the M's lineup. That's not exactly difficult, since the bar is set pretty low, but a middle of the order hitter is better than a bottom of the order hitter. Obviously.
With that, we read a tweet and discuss the implications of said tweet after the jump.
One of the things mentioned on twitter earlier in the evening came from Jon Heyman. No matter your feelings for the guy, he's in Nashville and hears a lot more than any of us do. Here's what he had to say:
With that, let's take a look at both sides of the coin. I'm not going to say one way or the other what would or would not be a good idea because, again, I don't know. Unfortunately, baseball operations are not a democracy and we have to live and die by the decisions of the front office. Here's hoping they know what they're doing!
Trade him
Well, okay, let's trade him. In a discussion on twitter, I mentioned that prospects are not absolutes. Actually, what I said was "Prospects are always risky anyway. He may trade geese that lay gold, but could just as easily lay lead." ALL prospects are hit or miss, so why not use them as the commodity they currently are? A team could overvalue a prospect you have in your system and you could fleece the other team. Keep in mind it works the other way too. Everybody remember Mike Morse? Asdrubal Cabrera? Yeah, still kind of stings.
Nick Franklin hit .243 and 7 homers in 64 games with Tacoma in 2012. He also hit .322 with 4 homers in 57 games with Jackson before his promotion in the middle of the year. Franklin is also still just 21. He'll turn 22 during spring training next year and his future is bright. At least, by Mariner standards. Why not move a maybe in Franklin for a known entity in Justin Upton? It would probably take a bigger package of prospects, but I'm kind of hoping that Jack Z wouldn't be crazy enough to send both Franklin AND Walker in the same deal. Maybe if it were Upton and some other guy in the Diamondback's system that's highly touted that I don't know.
While there have been players like Cabrera and Morse, there are also guys like Jeff Clement and Brien Taylor. Injuries are a real possibility and so is just plain not being worth the jersey you're wearing as a ballplayer. Upton had the misfortune of playing hurt most of the season in 2012 and everybody and their dog knows what he's capable of. He's proven what he can do in the big leagues. Nick Franklin has yet to do that and while he's young and has the success in the minors, that doesn't necessarily translate into big league success. It comes down to trading a player as yet unknown for a player we all know.
Keep him
The arguments for keeping him are about the same in certain aspects as trading him are. He's young, he's had success in the high minors at a young age, projects well according to most prospect pieces. When I say he projects well, I mean he projects to be a .270ish hitter that can be a 20HR/20SB type of guy. Speed and power in the middle of the diamond are exceptional things to have, especially when the incumbent SS is a guy who hit his way even deeper into a wet paper bag last season.
Long term, Franklin may not be a shortstop, but having too many players at a position is a great problem to have in many respects. Moving a player to a different position is far more luxurious than having to scramble at the bottom of the pile for a fill-in type player until you can get something better. *cough* Kevin Millwood *cough* I guess that's not really fair to Millwood, but you get my point. A projectable middle infielder who can field while not nearly as beautifully as the current shortstop, sufficient enough to be a massive upgrade with the bat where runs produced/saved are concerned.
You can't say "This guy is untouchable" with every A/B prospect in your system, otherwise no trades would get done, but why not hold on to a guy that can help sooner rather than later and will be under team control for 6 years? Shortstops that can hit, field and has a little pop in the bat aren't exactly knocking on every team's door begging for a job. Outfielders, on the other hand, are much more plentiful and are easier to create from infielders than vice versa.
I know I didn't really talk about Taijuan Walker in this post, but mostly because I didn't think I'd have to. He's a guy I think we all want to see in a Mariners uniform sometime in the near future and trading him would hurt a little. As I said with Franklin though, you can't say he's untouchable and then expect to get something valuable in return. If it's between Franklin and Walker, I choose Franklin. If it's both, I pull out my hair, curl up in a corner and beg for the pain to stop. If Jack Z can work a trade where neither of those guys are part of the package and they still manage to get a fairly decent player, I'll be happy. Or sign a free agent and make all of this one big moot point.
One such trade I read on twitter was one with the Pirates, where Smoak, Jaso and Noesi would go to the Pirates with the Mariners getting G. Jones and Hanrahan. Yes please! Jaso would hurt a little to see leave the team, but let's be realistic. He'll never be much more than an adequate platoon catcher, which is a lot better than what we've had in the past, but the Mariners need a lot more than adequate.
We'll see what happens over the next several days. If the Mariners don't make some kind of a move, it would be a bit disappointing, but not devastating. The winter meetings are only 4 days out of 3 1/2 months of offseason. Signing free agents isn't a quick draw type thing, but it's a lot easier in those 4 days. Not signing or trading for a bat wouldn't be an indicator of anything other than nothing could be worked out. Even so, hopefully in the next couple of days there will be something to hoot and holler about here in an upcoming post. Stay tuned!

Why when I put:

I can't see the error on your page.
Are you using a plugin ?
I took it out, will put it again...
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_post_count() in /home/pk/public_html/erica/index.php on line 147
I have another hack question also...
when using that.... where do you put the php? In wp-comments.php?
post_count - that's not a function that comes along built in. Have you uploaded and activated a plugin ?
Gravatar - I would think so, never used it myself. Find the part of the code that displays comments, and put it somewhere then move it around to suit.
yes, I have uploaded and activated it...
I got it from here:
ok, I will try that with the gravatar...
The upload of the plugin could have gone wrong..delete it and reupload, making sure it goes up as ASCII, not binary ?

I've been stuggling with the following issue for hours & hours... I appreciate any possible help!
I've have a conditional tag (http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags) in my sidebar to deliver different content to different category pages.
Within that conditional tag, I am trying to list the posts of a certain category. Following Kafkaesqui's instructions in the forum post http://wordpress.org/support/topic/69799 I've been attempting to input the equivalent of:
$photog_posts = get_posts('category=10&numberposts=-1'); foreach($photog_posts as $post) : setup_postdata($post);
within the conditional tag.
However, to the best of my knowledge, I have to "echo" the portions of that code. And, have ended up with something like this...
echo "$photog_posts = get_posts('category=2&numberposts=10');";
echo "foreach($photog_posts as $post) : setup_postdata($post);";
This, of course, DOES NOT WORK.
So... how would one call Kafkaesqui's code above within a conditional tag (where the elements have to be "echoed")?
Thanks for any & all help!

Thirteen-year-old Habo has always been different— light eyes, yellow hair and white skin. Not the good brown skin his family has and not the white skin of tourists. Habo is strange and alone. His father, unable to accept Habo, abandons the family; his mother can scarcely look at him. His brothers are cruel and the other children never invite him to play. Only his sister Asu loves him well. But even Asu can't take the sting away when the family is forced from their small Tanzanian village, and Habo knows he is to blame.
Seeking refuge in Mwanza, Habo and his family journey across...
This collection of more than 100 poems that honestly and artfully confront topics ranging from poverty and motherhood to Van Gogh and Mandela is presented in Tupac Shakur's own handwriting on one side of the page, with a typed version on the opposite side.
Okay, seriously, I don't get all the fuss about this. While there are a few nice lines here and there, the bulk of the poetry is pretty juvenile. Which is fine, he was 19. He writes about girls more than anything else, which is understandable. Again - 19. I guess I just don't understand why his adolescent poetry is considered so...

Bank Holiday Assembly Instructions
Do they have bank holidays in continental Europe? My impression, and it's entirely to their credit, is that Europeans not only do less work than the British but are much better at enjoying their holidays. When public holidays are declared on the Continent, nothing so dismal as banks need be invoked.
I ask the question only because in a convulsion of patriotic fervor following the announcement of next spring's royal wedding here, the prime minister has declared April 29 a bank holiday.
Why "bank" holiday? Banks seem to be closed most of the time anyway—presumably to prevent students smashing them up or customers taking their money out. The bank holiday no more than paints the lily for our banking friends—while giving the rest of us another day off on which it is impossible to go to the bank.
The bank holiday in this country is not really a holiday at all. In fact, it's an antiholiday. Typically, it's a Monday bolted onto the end of a weekend, or—as is the case of the royal wedding—a Friday bolted on to the beginning of one. It has this baleful effect: Because it makes the weekend longer, it makes the weekend look like a period in which it might just be possible to get something constructive done. So instead of sleeping and stuffing our faces—which is what we would, blissfully, spend the weekend doing if it weren't for the fatal appearance of a bank holiday at one end of it—we spend the time working, unpaid, on doomed and aggravating home-improvement projects.
We sit in traffic jams on orbital roads arguing. Then we grunt and shove our way through the laden aisles of IKEA or Homebase, arguing. Then we return, simmering, to the traffic jams in the opposite direction—this time driving with our heads bent sideways to accommodate the flat-pack furniture we've rammed haphazardly into our too-small cars.
Often, we go as a nation to the garden center. I imagine Europe is strewn with these places, but I can't imagine them being quite the same: the English garden center is not an adjunct to the hypermarket. Patrolled by surly but well-muscled staff who know everything about geraniums, it sells goldfish, baling twine, pots, etc., and usually has a huge gift shop full of unlovely novelty gardening-related items. You can spend hours there, in a trance, and come away with plants unsuitable for your existing pots, pots unsuitable for your existing plants or a pair of secateurs and miles and miles of twine.
On arrival home, still arguing, we unpack our bulbs and commence arguing about ericaceous compost. Or we unpack the flat-pack furniture and argue over how to un-flat it—then we argue about the disposal of the pack in which it came, then about the disposal of the furniture itself, and so the whole hideous spectacle continues until the house is filled with half-assembled wardrobes, half-hung curtains, half-planted bulbs and half-settled arguments. Finally, blessed relief, we go back to work on Monday. That, as William and Kate will discover, is the essence of English married bliss. But, then again, the royals probably don't do bank holidays.
Taking Greenwich out of GMT
Last Friday, a private member's bill in Parliament proposing that British clocks go forward an extra hour all year round passed its second reading by 92 votes to 10—leaping an important hurdle on the long track to becoming law.
The government will now proceed to a cost-benefit analysis, which, if favorable, could be followed by a three-year trial period. That could, in due course, lead to something permanent—and Greenwich would never again be on Greenwich Mean Time.
Proponents like to call it "Double Summer Time"; opponents call it "Berlin Time." Arguments go back and forth about dark mornings versus murky evenings, but I have a historical, rather than a practical, reason for hoping the bill, in the long run, fails.
The readership of The Wall Street Journal Europe is cosmopolitan enough, I'm sure, to take pleasure rather than umbrage at the prolonging of historical feuds. I like GMT because it was cooked up in the first place as a way of poking France in the eye.
They got their way over the meter, so at the 1884 Meridian Conference, the U.S. and Britain ganged up to put the prime meridian through Greenwich rather than Paris. The French were so cross they refused to adopt the Greenwich meridian for most of a century. For that reason alone I feel sentimentally attached to GMT.
Let it snow
It takes only a few centimeters of snow for Britain to grind to a complete halt, and the national conversation to turn to moaning about it. This year, the numbers we are presented are striking. The cost to the British economy of the bad weather has been estimated at £1.2 billion per day. So, for all our grumbling about the Irish bailout (£7 billion), a week of heavy snow will cost us more. And the vaunted boost to the British economy of the royal wedding—£1 billion—is less than a day of weather. Mind you, according to the Confederation of British Industry, the bank holiday declared for the royal wedding is going to cost us £6 billion, so we may as well let it snow.
Next week,
Francis X. Rocca in Rome

The Master of Planning (MPL) Program
The Master of Planning (MPL) program at the USC Sol Price School of Public Policy is one of the most distinguished of its kind in the United States. USC Price is ranked 6th overall among Public Affairs schools in the U.S. News & World Report and Planetizen considers the MPL program one of Top 10 Graduate Urban Planning Programs. Accredited by the Planning Accreditation Board of the American Planning Association, the MPL program is strategically positioned in the Price School among disciplines such as public policy and real estate.
Our Mission. The mission of the Master of Planning program is to educate students to become leaders in the planning issues and comprehensive urban development processes of the 21st Century. We achieve that mission through a master of planning education that links theory and practice, emphasizing analytical and communication skills, critical thinking, creative design, community engagement, collaborative decision-making, and democratic governance in a globalizing world.
Explore the many professional and research opportunities available through our areas of expertise

This reminds me of a horror film I watched two summers ago called "Crazy Eights". Actually, that whole movie reminds me of your works. It's not that great of a plot, but the setting and idea is kinda cool. :/
I'd reccomend checking it out if you have time.

No problem! Warning though, they over use the word "f*ck" purely because it's rated R. I think that they must have realized that if they were going to have violence to earn an R rating, they might as well swear it up.

Best price we've seen on the Darksiders Franchise Pack since July of this year. Includes Darksiders, Darksiders 2, and all the numerous Darksiders 2 DLC packs.

rich breakfast, free internet, cozy and familiar, very helpfully staff
Hotel was close to the beach. The two owners and the staff were for the most part polite. Breakfast was decent, nothing spectacular but decent. Room had ac. WiFi in the lobby was nice.
They could teach the chamber maids to clean the room. Maybe mop the floor? Changing the bed sheets when you see the sand from the beach would have been nice. Leaving the windows open after cleaning, in Italy you do not leave windows open, especially when there was a low roof below our room. The showers......eeeeek. Clean the shower curtains would be a good idea. The shower was also in the middle of the washroom and was more of a shower head mounted on the wall and a drain in the floor. so it made a mess that would get poorly cleaned. However, after speaking with family that reside in viareggio during the summer they say that the hotels are expensive and not very clean. It's hard to recommend this hotel....but its not that bad.
minibar prices
Single rooms a bit too small. Beatuful wiew from hotel terrace.
Price a bit high considering low season. Garage far too expensive.
Location, facilities, staff, atmosphere
the warm staff and the good environment.
Great location. Very polite and helpful staff. Attractive old fashioned decor. Terrace overlooking sea & promenade an added bonus.
Very limited dinner Menu. Unexciting food. Restaurant seating arrangement uncomfortable. Breakfast could be better.
As always the staff were very pleasant and helpful. The room was comfortable. The roof terrace is a real bonus. Good choice at breakfast.
Very basic Hotel. Restaurant closed on Monday's. Noisy corridors, lack of 'make-up' service i.e. bed unmade, room not cleaned duing my stay
very friendly and helpful, upgraded our room even if it wasn't their fault, provided good indications on what to see/do/etc, welcomed the dog
The view from the hotel restaurant is wonderful and bthe breakfast is very pleasant.
Comfort rooms are expensive and in need of some decoration there was a very old TV in the room which stopped working.
Hotel is so close to "everything". Lunch in the terrace restaurant was wonderful.
It's a comfortable hotel with good location and hospitable staff for family holiday.
The location was good right on the promenade.
The hotel rooms were very tired and small. The bathroom was also small and in need of updating. The cleaning of the rooms was not up to standard with debris from day one remaining on the floor for our whole stay.
This Hotel makes Motel 6 look like the Ritz.
Very good location - near the beach and shops.
A very pleasant hotel overlooking the beach and within easy reach of the Airport,Pisa,Lucca and Florence.
Location is excellent and room facing sea with balcony is definitely recommended. Staff very helpful. Good choice of continental breakfasts.
Pool shut in October. Room service not avalaible on some nights.
it is clean and in the centre
Breakfast satisfactory and a fair selection
Room small and well overpriced, would suggest a 1.5 to 2 star rating at best. Room was difficult to get to via passages and bathroom small.
Close to the tower of Pisa in a quiet and old part of town.
Having to wait ages to get the bill.
The hotel was clean, everything was working. The room was a bit small but nicely furnished and the bed was good. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good but not outstanding.
the location was very good for a beach holiday
I was disappointed with the lack of internet access, the lack of a swimming pool (for a 4* hotel and the somewhat dated design and layout of the room we were allocated with poor view and light in the seating area.
The staff were very pleasent, and the location good
we found the beds very hard, and the air-condition did not work in our room
Staff very helpful and convenient to Tower and railway station via a short can ride.
Air conditioning was nice. Good location. Friendly staff.
The WiFi was terrible. Bad coffee for breakfast.
rooms a little bit old
the best location to visit pizza.

Gallop yourself on over to the town where
the Laurels grow on the Mount.
This town is home to several horse farms: Ev-Ry Farm, Caballo Creek, the former Blue Acres and others.
These examples are concentrated within
a mile of each other between
Walton Ave and Hainesport-Mt. Laurel Rd.
Slightly SW of this intersection is a tract called Bridlewood. Gaskill is your entrance.
(Parking: If you want a longer walk, (its on a busy road), park at Hillside School (if not in session);
park at Cucina Carini, (have a great lunch and then take the walk);
park on Gaskill either near H-MtL Rd or drive about 2/10 mile and park near the chain link fence.
In theory, you could drive w/in <100 of the box. Mostly accessible by wheelchair/stroller/roller skates, etc.)
Because you must pass through and park in a residential area, please be respectful of the homes, noise level, trash, etc. Thank you!

Tie her up on the right to the double, v-shaped tree.
From this tree, walk about
40 steps (Rt1, Lt2, Rt3, Lt4) slightly NW. It really depends on how much ground cover and logs you have to traverse!Pass several logs.
Horses dont normally lie down and neither do trees .except this ones looking very tired.

Does Disaster-Turbulance lurk around at "speck" altitude???
Hey, Yesterday I simultaneously had my best and worst thermal flight in the same flight. This was done with my newly completed completely modified 2M Spirit. Several times I took it to "speck", then did acrobatics, then floated around way, way high, did more acrobatics, etc. The location was an agricultural grassfield that had been cut and dried out and turned yellow/brown with lots of thermal activity during a 3 day freeflight contest at the same spot.
Side note: I've noticed before that when I do acrobatics pretty high to mess around when I have altitude to burn, that the plane seems to be moving REALLY fast and manuevers really fast with subtle movements of the control stick, or I'm moving the control stick more than I realize and manuevering more tightly than I should be. ?????
The Thermals were incredibly strong, there were constant thick, dense dust devils in a plowed dirt field about 1/3rd mile cross-wind from me. Boomers and hat-suckers, first time I've encounted thermals this strong and numerous(and so easy to find, it was almost a game to stay out of them, really).
"Best"- Longest time and highest altitude gain.: I didn't even think to start the timer on my watch until I was approaching "speck" altitude so it had been up there awhile already, then I ended up with 29 minutes after stopping the stop-watch after the crash.
"Worst"- At the highest point and the speckiest speck, it just disappeared while I was watching it(no I didn't take my eyes off of it), -possible retinal fatique but I doubt it because I'm very aware of that phenemonon and avoid it but still possible. Soon after I heard for the first time that gut-wrenching/blood-draining buzzzzz of a high speed wing flutter from way high up, I knew then it was in a dive, I tried to gently pull up but then right then things went silent, soon I saw the wing halves floating down then caught the sight of my fusalage way ahead speeding it's way down. In hindsight, I should have tried at least to slow its fall by putting the rudder hard left or right and the elevator full up or down to get it to spin and slow it down, but hindsight as always is 20/20 after the fact.
Amazingly, the winghalves were fine other than the totally replaceble center connector spar(which was alreading showing signs of damage, I know now, don't use a compromised center spar connector). The rudder and elevator are fine other than a wood control horn needing to be replaced on the elevator.
The nose of the fusalage went 5" into dry hardpacked dirt of a cut-and-dried grass field and is surprisingly repairable. I really appreciate the advice given to me long ago when I built my 1st plane: Fiberglass that nose while you're building it BEFORE you need to later. Words to build by.
****The Main Questions****
1) Is there sometimes severe turbulance to watch out for in 'boomer' thermals that would toss my plane in a multitude of bad postions such as dive a some point? Or.....
2) Did I just simply and most likely put the plane up too high to see what was happening and things went bad too fast? Or....
3) Both of the above?
4) Has anyone else had similar wing flutter or other disasters in strong powerful thermals up at "speck" altitude?
Thanks - Paul

1. Not likely to be worse high up than low down, just stronger lift. Generally thermals are wider higher up, and the air is usually smoother. If you're in a full scale plane, I think the answer might be a little different.
2. I think this is the answer, most likely, especially if you moved the stick without being able to see the glider.
3. see above
4. Yes. Especially when trying to escape thermals by flying fast, although perhaps only halfway to speck height. Long ago and I don't remember a lot about it.
It's also conceivable that you had a little bit of a range issue, though unless your vision is exceptional, a good radio and installation probably wouldn' t have this problem.
I don't know what updates have been implemented, but I remember hearing things about weak center joiners in the Spirit kit before. Might be a good place to laminate many layers of straight grained, very strong wood or perhaps even carbon fiber in the next to outer layers. Sugar maple is not too hard to find and is very strong if the grain is straight. Just wet it to raise the grain when you can't sand it any more. Lots of info on other woods here:
Certain types of ash, locust and others are very strong.
Slop and flexibility in structures or control linkages can promote flutter.

Good info...
Lincoln, As always you have some good input. What you said confirms some of my suspicions. I'm leaning towards my last input maybe being not quiet level, and it was specked out pretty close to straight overhead. I also fly with the CG back a little on the touchy side since I like the way that feels and flies.
As far as reciever/transmitter issues, the plane has a Berg 7 reciever, both the plane and transmitter where fully charged. I did 2 running hand launches and caught some thermal activity and kept the plane in the air far longer than any handlaunch before but still it should not have burned up much charge, the 3rd launch was with the hi-start and within 15 seconds off the hook I had a thermal, servo response post-crash was fine so I really don't think it was a radio issue.
I didn't think about any looseness/play in the joiner, I did have it shimmed with tape since it got looser since building the wing over the humid winter. Could very well be a contributer. I agree on making my next joiners out of stronger materials. I'm guessing the 2 -1/8" 3-ply plywood layers laminated with a 1/16" walnut veneer into a joiner may have been birch and would fail sooner than maple or even basswood if I made my own plywood with the grain running lengthwise (for the most part- I would bias them slightly to have some grain crossing).
Any other input is welcome too
Thanks - Paul
I agree that #2 is the most probable cause, especially if you have a rearward CG.
I have learned to figure out for each plane, when it is well in view, an appropriate "escape setting". That way if I lose sight of it, I can move the sticks to that setting and be confident that the plane is coming down without over-speeding. On most woodies this means putting the stick near one corner, with spoilers on.

As for turbulence at altitude, it can happen if there is a sharp inversion layer (warm air on top of cooler air). When a thermal hits inversion, it will penetrate some distance into the inversion under it's own momentum, then realize that it is no longer warmer than surrounding air and begin to sink again. Bouncing around the inversion boundary, the thermal can shred itself into pieces and create significant turbulence. I'm not sure if this is what caused Pauliwog's incident, but it could happen.

I guess I should have been more specific about the laminations. If you use a thin enough veneer, the layers can be horizontal, bend in the middle, and be continuous across the joint. This is likely somewhat stronger than with vertical laminations. Especially if you make a layer near the top and a layer near the bottom with carbon fiber. Don't use basswood for this. It's nice wood but not especially strong. Birch can be pretty strong if you're using the right type.
The laminations I'm talking about might look like this:
A model looks like it's going way faster at low altitudes than up high. 70 mph in the landing pattern is screaming, but at 2000 feet it looks pretty leasurely. I once started to loose orientation well up in lift, slammed on the spoilers and gently pulled into a loop to buy some time to get reoriented. The ship did a nice round loop with full spoilers! Those spoilers were very effective. Later tests showed that the plane had to be going at an insane speed to do that loop. Luckily, that ship didn't have any flutter problems.

Of course, but the further you get from the ground, the less likely the gradient will be steep. Doesn't mean the wind won't be MUCH stronger up there, just that it's not likely to be as rough as lower. I've been hanging around with some FPV guys a little bit, and helping some UAV guys, and we've measured a whole lot more wind at 1,000 feet or so than at, say, 50 feet. Can't remember the numbers, though.

Good Info!!!
Thanks for all the info contributions you guys all put down here!
Spoilers, yes, they're built and ready to go but I built them a string pull system and ran out of room to put a servo in the forward compartment. So, whilst fixing the fuselage, I may just open up the wings and put a mini-servo in each wing and set up the wiring. Might be a good investment. Plus, I have a Berg 7 reciever that I think I can program in a "failsafe" configuration setting even with my nonprogrammable basic 4ch Futaba transmitter in case of transmission loss.
All other info is still welcome!
Adios - Paul
Found some related info in this thread ...
I think most sailplane pilots overestimate the altitude they're flying. I put a recording altimeter in a 42% Spacewalker (135" span and 24" chord), and I could just barely see it well enough to fly it at 3800 feet. A 2M sailplane would probably disappear at half that.
My escape plan is to deploy the flaps/spoilers and pull the stick to the lower corner. A stalled spinning plane doesn't fly very fast, but it comes down fast enough to escape all but the strongest thermals. Plus, it's a LOT easier to catch/keep sight of.

Depends on your eyes. We had a club member see a 2 meter glider of his go down. GPS said it was over a mile away when recovered.
An approximate judgement using the button on the end of a 72mHz tx compared to the wingspan, says that at over 2,000 feet away I get uncomfortable when flying a 3 meter glider.

I had an issue where all of a sudden I was not getting emails from the form. Some testing showed that when using the contact form from my site, it appeared to be successful to the users, but the email was never sent... I updated to v 3.3.1, and this seemed to resolve the issue. That said, is there a data backup for completed form information that is stored somewhere?
I do not know exactly how long the emails were not being received, but I get a lot of leads from my site via this form. I was hoping to recover any 'lost' leads...
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you,

I try not to rate supermarkets because, for the most part, I dont really consider them beer stores. However, this Whole Foods deserves a rating because it has concentrated on building a beer store within its confines. And they have an ample selection in a large walk-in cooler (with some of the barrel aged stuff on a rack in the front) which often causes me to peruse rather than try to find anything specific. Service, when Ive needed it, has been good, and the value is typical of Whole Foods - pricier, but not unreasonable. Definitely worth a stop if youre in the area.
gyllenbock (250) Stockholm, Sweden | March 20, 2016
Visited every day during my visit to Portland in March 2016. The location was excellent, around five minutes walk from my hotel. (Marc Spencer) The beer selection was the best that I have ever seen in a Whole Foods Store, a lot of locals from Oregon but also from other parts of USA and other countries. (the rest of the store was also very good) I especially liked the cold room with all the beers, a room like that is not possible in Sweden due to alcohol laws. I am used to high prices in Sweden so the prices at this store were ok. Really well worth a visit.
brokensail (1295) Dublin, California | June 22, 2015
Pretty big sized store in the more downtown area of Portland. Not too far from places like Rogue and Lardo.
They had a growler station upstairs, but the real action is in the walk in cold box downstairs. There are also some select beers outside and a number of ciders over in the wine section. Sake there, too.
I thought the selection was pretty good, but being from out of town, so much is new to me. They dont seem to do singles here, so you can either get large format bottles or six/four packs. But, a good selection of beers from all over Oregon and Portland itself. They had some special releases like Hellshire V out on the shelves. The pricing was a little less attractive here than other places, but not exorbitant by any means.
I dont know that youll find anything too crazy here, but its worth a stop for some solid bottled beers.
Marheb (376) San Diego, California | April 23, 2015
Dans le milieu de peloton des Whole Foods côté sélection. Un arrêt intelligent comme dhabitude même si ça peut être plus cher. Ya toujours des chances de trouver des perles qui disparaissent plus vite dans les autres boutiques.
mcberko (735) Vancouver, British Columbia | December 28, 2013
Awesome bottle selection - the best of Portlands Whole Foods, though the prices are a bit higher than Belmont Station and other bottle shops. They seem to have a few things Belmont runs out of more quickly. Definitely worth a stop.
pushkinwow (129) Ottawa, Ontario | November 14, 2013
So visited this my first day in Portland because we needed a couple of things for the condo and it was near where we already were...pleasantly surprised by what they had in stock including some stellar finds like 2013 Beserker and Artic Saison. Also had a nice selection of locals and other west coast brews and nothing was too expensive. Id say if you are downtown visit this place to at least see if they have anything special and because its probably close and you can definitely get some good beer.
notalush (390) Denver, Colorado | December 16, 2011
Typical Whole Foods vibe - walk in cooler stocked with an impressive of local brews - lean on the imports, but that is not why you are here - fairly nice selection, and close by all the desirable downtown locations - nice place to stock up if you are staying near downtown.
3fourths (1528) Boulder, Colorado | November 3, 2011
walk-in cooler is a mix of local, regional and import. a few things not seen elsewhere in town, decent prices and a knowledgeable beer-dude running the place.
Alphadelic (96) Portland, Oregon | May 12, 2011| Updated January 25, 2012
This has totally changed since Ive first visited. The walk in cooler is now stocked with an array of local and international brews. A good place to stock up on some of the smaller, local brewers.
Aubrey (74) Bellingham, Washington | October 18, 2010
As far as Im concerned, this is the best place to buy bottled craft beer downtown Portland. All the other markets and shops I went into had painfully limited selections. The selection at this Whole Foods is probably equal to some other Whole Foods, but it may be better than most. I could be biased, though, especially since I just moved from Colorado to Washington state, so at least a third or more of the beers were new to me. Many six-packs and lots of 22-oz bombers, which seem to be popular in the PNW for some reason. I was able to find plenty of new beers to try from Hub, Silver Moon, Speakeasy, Oakshire, and many others. The "beer guy" I spoke with was super friendly and helpful. He even brought out a couple fresh hop ales from the back for me that hadnt even made it to the shelf yet. Then, the cashier was just as friendly, as she strongly suggested I hit the new Cascade Barrel House ... which I already planned to do. Regardless, the vibe was very cool. Prices were better than I expected. Overall, if youre downtown Portland and dont want to bother driving to bottle shops farther away, this place is definitely worth your time and money.

Boy, that news about the Dems giving the big A-OK to waterboarding in particular is going to take away a lot of the authority in their moral outrage this campaign.
I don't know why I'm shocked. I didn't think I had the capacity to still expect more from politicians.
I agree. It shocks and repulses me.
Sadly, not much shocks me anymore when it comes to this kind of thing.
FDR in '08.
For me, the revelation about Democratic leaders supporting torture doesn't just shock and suprize me... it really demoralizes me.
Why? Being that I suffered abuse in King County Jail, I see a direct correlation between the toleration of torture in Guantanamo to the permissive attitude towards civil rights abuses in the KCCF.
Since Democrats here and in DC appear to support that kind of abuse, I fear that things will only get worse... Now I know that neither democrats or republicans are willing to understand why we are supposed to protect the civil rights of the people we detain, both domestic and foriegn, for both criminal offense and suspected acts against american interests.
