Sandy Blair was not having his best day, or decade for that matter, when he got word that Jamie Lynch had his heart cut out. In The Armageddon Rag by George R.R. Martin, the child of the Sixties has been orphaned by the "Me" Decade. Now, it's 1983, and all of Blair's political ideals have earned him a middling career as a novelist and a lot of writer's block.
In The House of Small Shadows, protagonist Catherine has had a bleak past. After losing her job at a top TV network in London thanks to corporate insecurity, she decides to move on with her life and experience the tedious job of antiquing and auctioning. She welcomes a new challenge assigned by her elderly boss: cataloging and maintaining a massive doll collection owned by the niece of infamous taxidermist M.H. Mason. Catherine finds it thrilling to also examine the strange and sentimental display of stuffed animals, posed and costumed in bloody scenes from the Great War.
"...the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars." - Jack Kerouac's On the Road
The Beats: A Graphic History tackles the generation of post-World War II writers who revealed an untold side of America while pushing censors' boundaries with their writing style.
With a mother who tries to be prim and proper and a daddy who dreams big but has sorrowful, often hilarious runs of bad luck trying to make his way in the world, young Daisy Fay—with a chipped front tooth, brave heart, and clever mind—finds the 1950s a spectacularly exciting time to come of age. As in her other best-selling novel, Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café, Fannie Flagg's Daisy Fay and the Miracle Man overlays its sometimes somber situations with such absurdities as to have readers laughing out loud.
Looking for a mystery with great characters and a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat? Read The Girl Next Door, by Ruth Rendell.
Six decades after World War II, construction workers uncover a tin box containing two skeletal hands. The ensuing police investigation leads to the reunion of six friends who decades before had lived and played in the neighborhood where the hands were found. Old friends will reunite, a marriage will break up, and a past crime will be solved.
Ivan Doig's This House of Sky is a memoir set in the rugged, sheep-raising terrain of Montana. It was a time when the last of the small-town ranchers were on their way out, pushed along by the Great Depression and rich men buying up failed farms to add to their own.
The author's people were not of the rich kind. They were scrappy, immigrant stock. Ivan's grandfather came with family from Scotland. They ran sheep til their luck ran out. Then they worked for the big ranchers. Ivan's father was a little guy, but he broke broncos—sometimes breaking his own bones doing it -- rode herd on sheep, bossed the other hands, and fell in love with a 16-year-old girl.
William Kent Krueger has yet again captured his mystery readers by storm in his thirteenth installment of the Cork O'Connor series, Windigo Island. In the middle of a large and dangerous electrical storm, the body of a young Ojibwe girl washes up on the shores of Lake Superior, Minnesota, bruised and severely abused.
Fried chicken. Cornbread. Sunday morning bacon. Apple Brown Betty. All of these delicious, home-cooked foods traditionally come out of a cast-iron skillet. At my house, we have three or four of them that have been passed down through generations. While Ellen Brown's New Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook has takes on these basic things, it opens a wider range of flavors and techniques from around the country and around the world.
In Bobbie Pyron's The Dogs of Winter, five-year-old Ivan doesn't know where his mother went. Maybe she traveled to the City to find work. She had lost her job at the bakery, so they hadn't had anything good to eat for a long time, and the house had no heat. The bad man who lived with them just said she was gone. Forever.
The Next Life Might Be Kinder, by Howard Norman, has one of those great first lines: "After my wife, Elizabeth Church, was murdered by the bellman Alphonse Padgett in the Essex Hotel, she did not leave me."

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Understanding Dislocation
Understanding Dislocation -- Treatment
What Are the Treatments for a Dislocation?
If you think you may have dislocated a joint, get immediate emergency medical assistance. Someone trained in first aid can help stabilize the injury until an emergency team arrives.
First Aid
- Keep the victim still and provide reassurance.
- If the skin is broken by a fractured bone, or if you suspect there may be a broken bone under the skin, take steps to prevent infection. Don't breathe on the wound, and do not wash or probe it. Cover it with sterile dressings before immobilizing the injury.
- Splint or sling the injury in the position in which you found it. Be sure to immobilize the area both above and below the injured joint and to check the circulation of the affected area after immobilizing. Apply ice packs to ease pain and swelling. Do not try to move a dislocated joint back into place as this can damage the joint and its surrounding muscles, ligaments, blood vessels, and nerves. This is the responsibility of trained medical personnel.
- To help prevent shock, lay the victim flat, then elevate the feet about 12 inches. Cover the victim with a coat or blanket. Do not move the victim if you suspect a head, back, or leg injury.
- Get medical help.
Do Not:
- DO NOT move the victim unless the injured area is completely immobilized.
- DO NOT move the victim if there is a chance of a neck injury.
- DO NOT move the victim with an injured hip, pelvis, or upper leg unless it is absolutely necessary. If you must move the victim immediately, drag him or her by the clothing.
- DO NOT attempt to straighten a misshapen bone or joint or to change its position.
- DO NOT test a misshapen bone or joint for loss of function.
- DO NOT give the victim anything by mouth.
Call for medical assistance immediately if:
- The victim has a dislocation, broken bone, or severe bleeding.
- You cannot completely immobilize the injury at the scene by yourself.
A medical doctor should be consulted for diagnosis and treatment of the injury.
When treated properly, most dislocated joints will return to normal function in several weeks with rest and rehabilitation. Some joints, like the shoulder and kneecap, are at an increased risk of recurrent dislocations. Surgery may be necessary if you have weak ligaments and the joint tends to dislocate frequently.

Global Science Report is a weekly feature from the Center for the Study of Science, where we highlight one or two important new items in the scientific literature or the popular media. For broader and more technical perspectives, consult our monthly "Current Wisdom."
Let us see if we can help New York Times' global warming reporter Justin Gillis out.
In his article yesterday about the upcoming Fifth Assessment Report of the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Gillis laments that the IPCC seems to be tamping down some of the more alarmist scenarios when it comes to the projected rate of rise of global temperatures and sea level.
Concerning projections of sea level rise, Gillis bemoans that the IPCC looks like (the final version of the Summary for Policymakers of the new report isn't scheduled for release until the end of the this month at the conclusion of an IPCC editorial meeting in Stockholm) it will discount the "outlier" estimates that the rise this century will exceed five feet. Gillis writes "The drafters of the report went with the lower numbers, choosing to treat the outlier science as not very credible."
When it comes to how fast the global average temperature is projected to rise, Gillis rues the possibility that the IPCC will lower its assessed value of the climate sensitivity, writing "In this case, the drafters of the report lowered the bottom end in a range of temperatures for how much the earth could warm, treating the outlier science as credible."

Hi folks,
First, let me start by saying I love the plugin. It's worked flawless for me for several weeks now and there's nothing else like it. However, the "no images" checkbox recently stopped working. If I enter the URL directly onto the "printfriendly.com" website, the "no images" checkbox works fine. So it seems to be related to the plugin.
First, I thought it might be my WordPress version. So I tried 3.1 and 3.0, but both exhibited the same behavior. Then I thought it might be my theme. So I tried a different one that was very basic and it still had the same issue when trying to remove images using the checkbox.
Next, I tried debugging in Firebug. I can confirm that when the checkbox/label is clicked, it still seems to run the following fuction:
$('img', pf.iDoc).toggleClass('pf-hidden');
$('#wri').attr('checked', !$('#wri').attr('checked'));
return false;
..but nothing happens.
Do you have any ideas on what the problem might be. I'm happy to help troubleshoot, just let me know what you need.
Thanks in advance!

When it comes to coercion, government employee unions are masters of the game. But now they must contend with masters of the courtroom. On June 30, the U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear Friedrichs v. California Teachers Association (CTA), a case previously dismissed by district and appeals courts. Several school teachers across California, led by an Orange County teacher, Rebecca Friedrichs (in photo), assert that the CTA has no authority to levy political fees on non-members without prior consent. In light of its 2012 Knox decision, and the political character of many "non-political" bargaining issues, the Court may overturn its 1977 Abood ruling authorizing the public-sector union shop. The CTA and allies counter, less than convincingly, that the plaintiffs are "free riders" mooching off dues-paying members.
Public-sector unions largely owe their growth to their authority to force non-joining workers to put money in their coffers. The Supreme Court believes this authority needs some restraint. By a 5-4 margin, the Court ruled on Monday, June 30, in Harris v. Quinn that nonunion private-sector home health workers cannot be required to support a public employee union even if their wages come from state Medicaid funds. The class-action suit originated in 2010 when several home care workers sued the State of Illinois and two unions, challenging two executive orders issued, respectively, in 2003 and 2009 classifying thousands of these service providers as state employees. The orders, wrote Justice Samuel Alito, violated worker freedom of speech. At the same time, the ruling did not overturn the 1977 decision that justified the public-sector union shop and applied it to non-members.
State governments are becoming effective union organizers. Several employees in Illinois, unhappy over the prospect of being forced to subsidize such an arrangement, are pushing back. And they've got themselves an audience at the highest level. On October 1, the Supreme Court agreed to hear an appeal by a group of home care providers objecting to an executive order issued in 2009 by Illinois Democratic Governor Pat Quinn that reclassified their status as "state employee," so as to bring them under union representation. The class-action case, known as Harris v. Quinn, will test the High Court's willingness to build on its Knox v. SEIU ruling of last year, which held that a California Service Employees union could not force covered nonunion employees to pay fees to support its political activism.
The U.S. Supreme Court once again has put the nation's public-sector unions on notice: Fee-paying nonmember workers under contract can't be forced to subsidize political causes they don't like. Last Thursday, June 21, in its long-awaited decision in Knox et al. v. SEIU, the Court affirmed a longstanding principle. Ruling 7-2 on the merits of the case and 5-4 on the issue of First Amendment rights, the Court concluded that the Sacramento-based Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 1000, California's largest public employee union, had deprived "agency shop" workers of the right to opt out of making monetary contributions toward union advocacy.

Seda Dropping Down, Targets Tomoki Kameda Clash
By Miguel Rivera
Cesar Seda Jr. will pause his plans to continue campaigning at 122 pounds. Seda is going to drop down to the bantamweight limit with the goal of securing a fight against the champion of the World Boxing Organization (WBO), Tomoki Kameda of Japan. Seda Sr., father and coach, said he will ask the WBO about potentially fighting for a regional title and then he plans to go after the world belt.
"We would like the people of Golden Boy and the WBO to give us that opportunity. We saw the last fight Kameda. He was losing the fight until he hit that shot to the liver of the Thai challenger. I think 'Junito' has the attributes to beat him," Seda Sr. told Carlos Narvaez.
Kameda has a record of 30-0 and 19 knockouts, while Ceda Jr. is 26-2 with 17 knockouts.

London-based pie chain Square Pie, which currently boasts five restaurants across the capital, is gearing up for massive expansion over the next four years.
Founder Martin Dewey aims to have 40 UK outlets by 2018, and plans to tap into international markets too. "Pies are really popular in Australia and South Africa," he says. "There is definitely an international opportunity for us."
Europe, despite being the UK's closest trading partner, is less keen on pies than our crust-loving cousins across the globe, he says. "European tourists love a pie, and I think they will work well in certain parts. But Italy, maybe not so much."
Square Pie is following in the footsteps of Pizza Express this week, launching its pies into the retail market. A new contract with Ocado and Selfridges will see the firm selling its original range alongside a mini version – the Canapie – to target the sharing and slimming markets.
"Canapies are only around 200 calories each, so you can have two and a salad for lunch if you're watching your weight," says Dewey.
The Square Pie boss hopes the new retail division will generate significant revenue growth this year and help the firm nudge ahead of the likes of Pieminister, and chains like EAT, which have a daily pie offering.
Canapies are set to be the real money-spinner, however. "We've spent five years getting the process just right," says Dewey. "It's cost me a lot of grey hairs but we own the trademark and we're the first people to launch a mini pie in this way."
Founded in 2001, £3m-turnover Square Pie was one of the first gourmet pie players on the high street, and has fought off competition from rival pie chains and gourmet brands. "We've had 127 flavours of pies in the last 12 years to find out what people really want," says Dewey.
Square Pie established a loyal following by creating pop-up restaurants at Glastonbury from 2002. The firm now has three shops at the music festival. "That's been amazing for us," says Dewey.
PR stunts have also helped. When England beat the Australians at the cricket in 2009, the firm created the "humble pie", made with kangaroo and Australian Shiraz. It also made the Square Pie Olympie for Seb Coe during the Olympics.
Today, Dewey is keen to move away from the pie puns. "We want to start taking our pies more seriously," he says. "Jokes are fine but it feels like every brand wants to be your best friend." His last hurrah was the Canapie, he insists. "I just couldn't resist that one."

Kelly Pavlik Arrested For Failure To Appear in Court
By TMZ
Former middleweight champion Kelly Pavlik was arrested today after failing to appear in court to answer charges that he allegedly stiffed a cab driver in Ohio -- and the police report is HILARIOUS.
The cabbie called cops immediately after Kelly allegedly bailed on his fare early Wednesday morning in Canfield, and when police arrived at the scene ... the cabbie told officers he had been "ripped off by that drunk f*** Kelly Pavlik."
According to the cabbie, he had picked Kelly up at a nearby bar and driven him home -- resulting in a $25 fare -- but Kelly didn't feel like paying, telling him, "F*** you guys. I'm not paying you. Go f*** yourselves." Pavlik then disappeared into his house.
After failing to appear in court, an arrest warrent was issued, and Pavlik was arrested at his Sugarbush Drive home in Canfield Township around 1 p.m. He will be released after posting a $2,500 dollar bond.
Pavlik spent most of his boxing career beating up cab drivers, and now that his career is over he wants to steal money from cab drivers!Comment by JamesEarl on 09-21-2013

By Marine Corps Sgt. Michael S. CifuentesJanuary 12, 2009
WASHINGTON, Jan. 11, 2009 - From providing musical performances to acting as key personnel during the swearing-in process, hundreds of servicemembers were on hand this morning around the nation's Capitol to support the 56th presidential inaugural rehearsal.
Each branch of service played a key role in working out potential issues before the inauguration, said Howard Gantman, staff director of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies.
The rehearsal started promptly at 5:30 a.m., with a rough walk-through, followed by the placement of military bands and joint-service cordon personnel.
Staff Sgt. Derrick Brooks, who serves with 741st Military Intelligence at Fort George G. Meade, Md., took a position of honor as he stood in for President-elect Barrack Obama. Brooks' speech consisted of nothing more than, "My fellow Americans. God bless America," but event coordinators said his role was critical.
Other servicemembers stood in for Vice President-elect Joe Biden and the Obama and Biden families. Navy Seaman LaSean McCray played the role of Michelle Obama. Army Spc. Nicholas Rupple stood in for Biden, and Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Karen Lowden, as Jill Biden.
Two military children stood in as the Obama girls. Dominique Sewell, the 14-year-old daughter of Sgt. 1st Class Natalie Sewell-Johnson, stood in as Malia. Ten-year-old Gianna Justice Samora-Nixon, daughter of Navy Chief Petty Officer Kenneth Nixon, was Sasha.
All were selected based on height, weight, gender and ethnicity similarities, explained Air Force Maj. Andra Higgs, an action officer with the Armed Forces Inaugural Committee.
The military's involvement in the presidential inauguration is a centuries-old tradition, which honors the commander in chief, recognizes civilian control of the military and celebrates democracy, Higgs said.
More than 5,000 servicemembers will participate in the Jan. 20 event and provide ceremonial assistance.
"It's an honor for them to be center stage," Higgs said. "We're very glad to have been provided with such world-class support."
Today's rehearsal gave members of the Armed Forces Inaugural Committee a sense of what they can expect next week, when 240,000 ticketed guests and potentially millions of spectators gather in Washington to see Obama becomes the 44th U.S. president.
"It's an honor and a privilege to take part in this [rehearsal]," said Navy Lt. Marcus Jones, who stood in as an Obama family member. "Beside the birth of my children and my marriage, this will be one of the most memorable days of my life."
(Marine Corps Sgt. Michael S. Cifuentes is assigned to Headquarters Marine Corps.)

returned to Sprint using the address label that Sprint provided on October 6, 2012. It is now November 16, 2012 and I have yet to receive confirmation from Sprint that my device was even received in their processing center. My device was mailed from my local post office, who confirmed that the device would have been received in their processing center on October 8, 2012.
After 4 emails and no valid responses from their customer service staff, I am just completely fed up. Every response back from Sprint states that I should wait, but each day I wait, my buyback value lessens. The credit from my BuyBack is significant enough not to just write this off as a lost cause.
Its too bad that having purchased a new devise in September locked me into yet another 2-year contract with Sprint. It is safe to say that this will be my last purchase with this carrier and the only thing I have to look forward to is the end of my contract so I can end my relationship with Sprint and move onto an honest provider.

I took my Pit bull to Dr. Fox 1st to get fixed. When I got her back she was very sick. I called Hick's and they had me bring her in the Friday before Easter. They ran tests and found out what was wrong with her. She had to stay there till Monday afternoon. They saved my dog. I'm very greatful to all of them. Dr. Hicks called me every day to give me an update she even called me on Easter night. My dog knows how great they are she gets excited when she gets to the vets office. I will not take my animals anywhere else as long as they are open

The people here are nice known them a long time. But did not like how they treated a dog I took in with pnewmonia . My dog was a very healthy dog (lg breed) & they let her stay in her cage & she would NOT go to bathroom in the place she slep, only outdoors. I told them this & they did not take her out. She died from a heart attack from stress. We went to see her every day they were open (my 2 kids & myself). On a Sunday we could not go see her as not open & she died that afternoon. This has been several yrs ago & several dogs also. But I will not take another dog there. I gave them the 2 stars for the friendly ness of the people.

Due to the unique flexibility provided by Cornell's One Course At A Time calendar, off-campus study is an integral part of the college's curriculum. Since students are committed to only one course during a block, the entire class can be moved to an off-campus location, in the U.S. or overseas. By supporting off-campus study the Berry Center follows through on its mission to promote experiential learning and provide academic enrichment opportunities. The Berry Center provides funding to faculty members to develop off-campus courses and field experiences, and offers subsidies and scholarships to participating students.
Faculty interested in requesting Berry Center funding for an off-campus course, see below.
Financial Management Seminar in Chicago
Every year students in the Financial Management seminar spend nearly a week in the Chicago financial district studying how markets and business firms manage financial, operational and credit risk. In its most recent visit, the class toured the floors of the Chicago Board Options Exchange, and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), and talked with traders and financial experts. The students also had an opportunity to exchange ideas with risk managers at the Bank of America, and Centegra Health Care, a major provider of health care services in the Chicago area.
Macroeconomics Seminar in Uruguay
Students spent a month in Uruguay and Argentina studying issues of economic growth in Latin America's Southern Cone. The class was hosted by the Universidad de Montevideo and the Southern Cone Group investment firm. Cornell students joined Uruguayan counterparts in classes co-taught by Cornell Professor Knoop and faculty members from the Universidad de Montevideo. The students took field trips to Buenos Aires and several locations in Uruguay. They interacted with government officials, financial industry experts, and business owners to understand how institutional factors and policy choices influence growth in emerging economies.
Culture, Gender, and Public Policy in Japan
Students traveled with professors Carol Enns (Psychology) and Erin Davis (Sociology)to Japan to study the interconnections between Japanese cultural traditions, gender roles, and contemporary public policy. The class studied within the Tokyo and Kyoto-Osaka regions, visiting many historical, cultural, educational, employment, and religious settings to gain a first-hand understanding of how public policy is influenced by Japanese traditions, values, and the socio-economic system.
Additional Off-Campus Experiences Supported by the Berry Center
- International Economics Seminar in Uruguay and Argentina with Professor A'amer Farooqi (Economics and Business)
- Economics of Sports in Dallas with Professor Jerry Savitsky (Economics and Business)
- U.S. Economic and Business History in Chicago with Santhi Hejeebu (Economics Business)

Faculty Requests for 2015-2016 Berry Center Off-Campus Study Funding
The Berry Center for Economics, Business, and Public Policy can provide financial support to classes that are taught off-campus entirely or in part. It can support courses that include lessons, projects, or field trips whose principal purpose is the study of economics, business, or public policy. The Center's financial support can reduce the cost that students must pay to participate in the special opportunities that you offer. Courses with elements of Economics, Business or Public Policy (but that aren't determined to have a primary focus) may still request to be considered for funding to support those particular elements.
If you would like to apply for funding for a course that you will teach in 2015-2016, please submit the following to the Associate Director of the Berry Center no later than November 30th, 2014:
- Course dept, course number and block, instructor, location
- A brief explanation of how your course's objectives will help students increase their knowledge of economics, business, or public policy
- Level of support you are requesting from the Berry Center ($ per student and total amount overall requested by BC) and an overview of how those funds would be used
- An outline of your course and supporting information--- syllabus, itinerary, and budget. If this information has been provided to the Program Coordinator in the Office of International and Off-Campus Studies, in your email request please direct the Berry Center to obtain a copy from Off-Campus Studies.
Review of requests will begin on December 1st, 2014 and applicants will be notified of a decision before the end of Block 4.

Video purports to show official Lightning to 3.5mm headphone adapter
A new video posted today on Vietnamese site tinhte.vn (via 9to5Mac) demonstrates what appears to be an official Apple Lightning to 3.5mm headphone adapter that will likely ship with the new iPhone coming this fall. The adapter, which features a design reminiscent of Apple's previous Lightning accessory adapters, appears to be between 2.5" and 3" in length and includes a male Lightning connector on one end and a female 3.5mm headphone jack on the other. The post accompanying the video claims the adapter was picked up from a Foxconn Apple supplier factory in Vietnam, and that the adapter only works with devices running iOS 10 beta, not iOS 9; when used with a current iPhone model — one that actually has a headphone jack — audio is sent to the Lightning port rather than the built-in headphone jack.
New iPhone pre-orders to start Sept. 9?
Following up on his earlier leak suggesting that the next-generation iPhone will go on sale on Sept 16, Evan Blass has sent out a another tweet adding that iPhone pre-orders will begin on Sept. 9, and suggesting that readers can extrapolate the launch event date from there — likely to be Wednesday, Sept. 7, based on Apple's prior event dates and the shorter Labor Day week.
Confirmed: Pre-orders start on the 9th. You can extrapolate the launch event date from there. https://t.co/gwoPzIM1dI— Evan Blass (@evleaks) July 28, 2016
A Sept. 9 pre-order date with a Sept. 16 release date would be in line with most prior iPhone launches — Since the iPhone 4s release in October 2011, Apple has traditionally opened pre-orders one week prior to retail availability, although it's worth noting that last year's iPhone 6s launch had a two-week lead time for pre-orders.
Apple has sold one billion iPhones
Apple today announced that it has now officially sold one billion iPhones. Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the news earlier today at an employee meeting in Cupertino, stating that "iPhone has become one of the most important, world-changing and successful products in history. It's become more than a constant companion. iPhone is truly an essential part of our daily life and enables much of what we do throughout the day," said Cook. "Last week we passed another major milestone when we sold the billionth iPhone. We never set out to make the most, but we've always set out to make the best products that make a difference. Thank you to everyone at Apple for helping change the world every day."
Apple crossed the threshold of "one billion active devices" earlier this year, announced at the company's Q1 2016 Financial Results Conference Call in January, although this earlier number presumably included non-iPhone devices such as iPads and iPods, and was limited to active devices; today's number refers to the total number of iPhones sold by Apple to date, and presumably includes those that have been retired from active use.
Parkopedia to provide detailed parking information for Apple Maps [Updated]
Parkopedia announced today that it will be providing information on available parking to Apple Maps. The new capability will give Apple Maps users information about parking garages and lots in 75 countries across North America, Europe, Asia and Latin America, with the option to click through to Parkopedia's website and iOS app to make reservations or see detailed information like pricing, user reviews and real-time space availability. Apple hasn't made a formal announcement about the arrangement, and as of this writing we haven't been able to find any added functionality for information about local parking options, so it's unclear at this point whether this will be functionality that Parkopedia and Apple will be working together to build into the core Maps experience, or Parkopedia announcing plans to take advantage of the new third-party Maps extensions capabilities coming in iOS 10.
Update: We reached out to Parkopedia for clarification, and they clarified that this is in fact a back-end partnership with Apple to integrate Parkopeida into the core Apple Maps app. A spokesperson indicated that Apple has been slowly integrating the functionality into Apple Maps since March, but today's announcement represents a worldwide rollout with full functionality taking place now. Searching for parking in Apple Maps should begin showing Parkopedia content across parking lot icons which will appear on Apple Maps and include data such as location, payment type, number of spaces, and more. Apple Maps users will also be able to book parking spaces by clicking on a booking link, and in the future will be able to search for lots by price to find the cheapest lots.
Microsoft releases Pix camera app for iPhone
Microsoft has released its own third-party iOS app intended to replace Apple's own Camera app with a simpler-to-use interface that's more reliant on artificial intelligence. Microsoft Pix takes all control out of the user's hands, automatically seeking out faces, tweaking settings on certain areas of photos, stabilizing videos and creating short, looped video clips when it detects motion in a photo. The app captures a burst of frames with every shutter click, then selects the three "best" shots and deletes the rest, favoring automation over total control. The app also allows users to see the difference before and after it applied all of its automatic improvements, but notably doesn't provide an option to save the pre-altered photo. Microsoft Pix is available for free on the App Store.
Adobe launches new Lightroom viewer for Apple TV
Adobe has created a new version of its Lightroom app for Apple TV, with abilities limited to viewing photos edited and saved in the corresponding iOS and desktop apps. Whereas those versions are geared toward editing, the Apple TV version includes a simplified interface that only supports browsing through collections. Photos and their applied edits saved on the Creative Cloud can be synced automatically for viewing on the bigger screen. The download is free on the tvOS app store, but won't work without the $10 a month Creative Cloud subscription.
Australian banks team up to push for other mobile payment apps on iPhone
Australia's three largest banks have lodged an application with anti-trust regulators, requesting approval to negotiate with Apple on installing their own electronic payment apps on iPhones, Reuters reports. Apple currently doesn't allow third-party payment apps to be loaded onto the iPhone, ostensibly because they would compete with its own Apple Pay system. Australian banks have notoriously resisted signing deals to use Apple Pay and want iPhone users to be able to use the electronic wallet applications that they've already privately financed and developed. Both Apple and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission declined to comment on the application.
Report: iPhone 7 may feature 3D Touch home button
The new iPhone 7 may do away with the standard home button in favor of a touch-sensitive 3D Touch home button, Macotakara reports. The speculation echoes a report from last week that the new device will use haptic feedback to mimic a click rather than relying on an actual button press. Unnamed supply chain sources said the improved home button is flush with the body and will not actually depress when pushed, even though users will feel the sensation of pressing on a button. Doing away with the physical home button may aid in Apple rumored efforts to make its iPhones more waterproof, but if recent leaks are any indication, it won't drastically change the look of the phone. [via MacRumors]
Apple turning 'Carpool Karaoke' into an Apple Music exclusive
Apple is turning James Corden's popular "Carpool Karaoke" segment into its own series, set to air as an Apple Music exclusive, The Hollywood Reporter reports. The series will expand on the current format, with celebrity guests singing along to their favorite songs and surprising fans during the ride, but will likely feature a host other than Corden. The 16-episode series will be released weekly on Apple Music, but no premiere date has been announced.
Notes from Apple's Q3 2016 earnings call
Kicking off Apple's investor conference call following the company's announcement of quarterly numbers for Q3 2016, Apple CEO Tim Cook reported that while the earnings numbers are slightly down from last year's quarter, the results reflect stronger customer demand and business performance than Apple anticipated 90 days ago, and that there are several encouraging signs. Cook noted that revenue was near the high-end of Apple's guidance range for the quarter, and gross margin was actually at the top of the guidance range. The global launch of the iPhone SE in this quarter was very successful, and Cook noted that demand for the new iPhone outstripped supply for most of the quarter, with additional capacity required to achieve balance as Apple enters the next quarter. Cook referred to initial sales data revealing that the iPhone SE has been very popular in developed and emerging networks, and that the percentage of iPhone SE sales going to customers who are new to the iPhone is greater than Apple has seen in several years. Apple had millions of first-time smartphone buyers in the June quarter, and Cook reported that switchers from other smartphone platforms accounted for the highest iPhone sales numbers Apple has ever measured.
Speaking about Apple's services business, Cook stated that they saw strong increases in Apple Music, iCloud, and AppleCare, with a growth of 19 percent to a record $6 billion in services revenue, up almost $4 billion year-over-year to $21.3 billion in total. Cook explained that services revenue is expected to be the size of a Fortune 100 company by itself by next year, and it continued to be fueled by Apple's active installed base of devices, making it clear that Apple is continuing to provide services with the goal of gaining ongoing revenue from existing iPhone users rather than relying on year-over-year hardware upgrades and purchases. Cook also highlighted the release of the 9.7" iPad Pro, noting that half of iPad Pro purchase are being bought for work purposes, and touched on the Apple Watch continuing to be the best selling smartwatch, ranking highest in customer satisfaction. Citing the recent launch of Apple Pay in Switzerland, France, and Hong Kong, Cook explained that Apple Pay adoption outside of the U.S. has been "explosive," with half of Apple Pay transaction value coming from non-U.S. markets.
Apple Q3 results: $42.4B revenue, 40M iPhones, 10M iPads sold
Apple reported its third quarter 2016 financial results today, with 40.4 million iPhones and 10 million iPads sold. The company posted quarterly revenue of $42.4 billion and quarterly net income of $7.8 billion, or $1.42 per diluted share. In Q3 2015, Apple had revenue of $49.6 billion and net income of $10.7 billion, or $1.85 per diluted share. Gross margin was 38 percent compared to 39.7 percent a year ago. International sales contributed to 63 percent of this quarter's revenue. For Q4 2016, Apple is providing guidance of revenue between $45.4 billion and $47.5 billion, and gross margin between 37.5 percent and 38 percent. Apple's earnings call will begin at 5 p.m. Eastern time, and can be heard live on the company's investor website.
Researchers expose security flaw in Osram smart bulbs
Researchers have discovered a number of flaws in the Osram Lightify lighting system that could leave a user's WiFi network open to attack, ZDNet reports. In an email advisory, security firm Rapid7 said one of the worst flaws allows an attacker to "take control of a product" to launch browser-based attacks against a user or identify the home wireless network's password. Where a home network's password is as strong as the homeowner chooses to make it, the Osram bulbs use short, eight-character codes that can be easily cracked within a matter of minutes. Deral Heiland, principal security consultant at Rapid7, said Osram has indicated that it plans to fix most of the flaws his firm uncovered in the next round of patches, but it's unclear if those fixes will fully resolve the security problems.
Cops bust 'criminal enterprise' using stolen credit cards at Chicago-area Apple stores
Chicago police have arrested six people in connection with "an organized criminal enterprise" using stolen credit cards at various Apple stores, the Chicago Tribune reports. The suspects were using identities and credit card numbers stolen from victims throughout the country to make fraudulent purchases, police said. The suspects, all of whom were from New York state, would fly into O'Hare International Airport, rent a car and visit local Apple stores to buy merchandise. Police successfully recovered more than $10,000 in stolen Apple products from the suspects, who were all charged with multiple felonies.
Update in iOS 10 allows for autoplay of silent videos in Safari
Apple is relaxing its controls on autoplay videos in Safari with the release of iOS 10, allowing silent or muted videos to start automatically. A post on the WebKit blog explains the rationale behind the changes as an effort to keep up with new display needs, as developers integrate more video elements into their sites. Some of those pages don't work on iOS 9 due to user gesture requirements, so Apple is relaxing its restrictions. Silent or muted video will be allowed to play, while video with an audio track will load but be paused.
WSJ: Apple brings in trusted executive Mansfield to head Apple Car project
Apple has brought in one of its most highly regarded former executives to head up its secret automobile project, The Wall Street Journal reports. Bob Mansfield, who joined Apple in 1999 and was a top executive under Steve Jobs, lead the development of some of Apple's biggest products, including the MacBook Air, iMac and iPad. After announcing his retirement in 2012 only to reverse course and stay with Apple working "on future products" just 2 months later, Mansfield moved from his post heading the company's hardware engineering teams to lead a new group that later produced the Apple Watch. Mansfield made another public exit from Apple's executive team in 2013, but earlier this month employees at the company began noticing all of the senior managers on the Project Titan car project were now listed as reporting to Mansfield. Neither Apple nor Mansfield responded to requests for comment about the move.
CarPlay to be available in all 2017 Ford models
Following through on its pledge from earlier this year, Ford has announced its entire 2017 line of cars, SUVs, light trucks and electric vehicles will offer Apple CarPlay, with future, over-the-air updates via Wi-Fi to keep it up-to-date with the latest technology. CarPlay will work with Ford's in-house SYNC 3 connectivity platform, making it "smartphone-ready" and providing access to Siri voice controls, Apple Maps, Apple Music, Phone, Messages and third-party apps like Spotify and Pandora. "Ford is not taking the traditional approach of introducing Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto on a few piecemeal models or as an expensive option on luxury vehicles only," said Jeffrey Hannah, Director of North America for global automotive technology research firm SBD. "The guesswork for consumers is over – if you buy any 2017 Ford vehicle with SYNC 3, you drive off the lot with both of these innovative technologies ready to go."
Rumors claim new iPhone will be released Sept. 16, could have 'iPhone 6 SE' name
Just to clarify, this refers to the retail release, not the launch event. To be even more specific, it should happen on Friday, Sept. 16th.— Evan Blass (@evleaks) July 23, 2016
Well-known leaker Evan Blass has sent out a series of tweets claiming the new iPhone will be released on Sept. 16, which would be slightly earlier than recent history. Apple released the iPhone 6s/6s Plus on Sept. 25 of last year — also a Friday, which is typical.
Meanwhile, German site Apfelpage has its own big prediction about the new iPhone, with its sources inside a Chinese manufacturer claiming the new device will be named the "iPhone 6 SE." The source said packaging has already entered production under that name, but also claimed they had only seen information related to the 4.7-inch phone, shedding no light on how the company would handle naming its new 5.5-inch device, which at least some sources have claimed would be dubbed the "iPhone Pro."
Photos claim to show alleged 'iPad Pro 2'
Two photos allegedly leaked by workers in the Chinese supply chain purport to show a new 12.9" 'iPad Pro 2,' Apple Insider reports. An anonymous source said the photos came from an Apple supplier currently working on an iPad Pro model scheduled to enter production in late September — but as noted, the images don't provide much to verify their authenticity. While the pictures show devices bearing a previously unseen model number that is consistent with Apple's numbering convention, the device identifier could have been forged. And even if they are legitimate, the display shows the device to have only 12GB of storage, which seems to hint at it being a prototype rather than a finished product, if anything. Improvements like a faster processor, better camera, and the addition of the True Tone display technology seen in the 9.7" iPad Pro would all seemingly make their way into a new 12.9" iPad Pro, but there's been no word on a potential launch timeline at this point, as the rumor mill has been relatively quiet on the iPad front this summer.
Apple to sell limited-edition Olympic Apple Watch bands exclusively in Brazil
Apple is planning to jump on board the fashion trends for the 2016 Olympic Games with a lineup of special edition Apple Watch bands representing the flags of fourteen of the major countries who will be participating in the Games. A new report in GQ reveals that the new limited-edition nylon bands will be sold exclusively at the Apple Store, VillageMall in Barra da Tijuca for $49 beginning in early August, and will include bands for the U.S.A., Great Britain, Canada, Australia, Brazil, China, France, Germany, Jamaica, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, South Africa, and The Netherlands.
Report: iPhone 7 will include Lightning adapter instead of Lightning EarPods
A new research note from Deutsche Bank (via Business Insider) reports that the next-generation iPhone will include a "Lightning-to-audio dongle" in the package rather than a set of Lightning-equipped EarPods. Although the research note confirms several other recent rumors about the upcoming iPhone, including the elimination of the 3.5mm audio jack in favor of a Lightning connection, it cites supply chain sources claiming that Lightning headphones will not be included in the package; however it's unclear whether this means Apple will simply continue to include the 3.5mm EarPods of prior versions, or eliminate the headphones from the packaging entirely.

mrs. rodgers' neighborhood...part 2
I had to start Loose Feathers - Summer by Blackbird Designs. It was like a dirty little drug calling my name...a good drug though, as I'm sure everyone can agree.
Towards the end of the year I was visiting primitivebettys blog and was taken with Deaver Daughter's Schoolhouse Sampler. Had to have it. The concept of one large sampler embodied with two mini samplers really caught my eye. Betty's story of the sisters really inspired me to stitch this with my mom and her sister (my Aunt Pam) in mind. The focus color is blue which is my favorite color. I was hooked, but imagining two sisters diligently stitching on their very own mini sampler on the same cloth to combine one large design. Very cool! I'm sorry I'm not further along.
Aunt Pam and I call this one ATS (pronounce "ats") because anytime we talk about it we don't want to keep referring to it as And They Sinned. You know that humungous, most beautiful, will-take-an-individual-longer-than-a-lifetime-to-complete design by Examplars From The Heart? Yeah, that's the one. Saying And They Sinned in a sentence sounds lengthy and because of "And" it's just plain weird to add to any type of sentence. Therefore, we say ATS - it works, and we know we're weird for it.

In October 2009, I received a postcard in the mail since I had a tax lien. I called the 800 number and spoke with Joe Garcia. After telling him what had happened, he told me that that was exactly what they handled and that a case like mine had just been resolved using their services. The client had even received a refund in the amount that the IRS had confiscated!!!! Garcia told me that Progressive was licensed to practice law in all states and that my tax problem could be resolved for $3,500.00. I told him that I did not have that so he set up a payment plan. I asked to speak to an attorney and Garcia told me that I could speak with whoever was assigned to me once I had filled out the questionnaire that was to be sent to me and had paid the first installment.
I made payments as required and filled out the paperwork. I called many times and Garcia told me that I should just relax that they were taking care of my matter...just keep sending money. After all, they were the experts in this and I would have this taken care of within about six weeks.
Jennifer, who called herself the head of customer relations, contacted me each time a payment was due to make sure that they were paid. Garcia also called me when the payments were due. Never at another time.
April 2010, Terri Turner, the attorney assigned to me, called me to tell me that Progressive did not handle my type of case. She told me to hire a local attorney. I told her that I wanted a full refund. Terri Turner told me that she would hand my case over to Jennifer who would handle the refund. Turner quickly returned my paperwork. It showed that she had even charged me $350.00 to call me to tell me that she did not handle that type of case!!!!
After several weeks had passed, I contacted customer relations again. I was told that it takes time for them to process a refund. I received a "Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement" on May 5, 2010 for $610.00 and when I told them I would not sign, they sent me a second "Agreement" on May 11, 2010 for $985.00. When I called them Terri Turner would no longer speak with me and Jennifer told me that I would not get a full refund.
I filed a small claims action and won a DEFAULT JUDGEMENT on September 15, 2010 in the amount of $3,590.00. Progressive attempted to have this judgement put aside, but failed to do so. Non payment of this judgement illustrated that they don't even adhere to the law... and they call themselves attorneys?????? They're thieves.
I have filed complaints with the STATE BAR OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA (complaint number 10.24673). From their response, it appears that I may be the only one who has complained.
I also complained to THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE; EDMUND G. BROWN , JR, Attorney General. PIU: 381981. They were unable to assist me because they did not see a pattern of business activity. EVERYONE NEEDS TO COMPLAIN !!!! OR THEY WILL GET AWAY WITH THIS FRAUD!!!
To date, I have not received a dime. These people are crooks. DO NOT USE THEM.

Is there any reason why you would use copper coated mild steel rod meant for gas welding instead of ES70-2 for TIG welding carbon steel. I was told they are the same thing? Thanks again for expert advice. B.G.
Chemically, they are close, but not exactly the same. Most important differences are in the amounts of deoxidizers like Si and Mn. You risk porosity using a gas rod doing TIG.
Tensile stength also differs. Gas rods RG45 and RG60 have 45 ksi and 60 ksi minimum tensile stength respectively. ER70S-2 has minimum tensile strength of 70 ksi, and is typically well over that.
If you are welding to procedure under the requirements of one of the welding codes, you have to use what the procedure calls for.
I have tigged mild steel with gas welding rod. The bead came out ok but at the end of each bead the end formed a foaming crater of porosity. I was told that the TIG rod had extra deoxidiers such as silicon in it. Use the proper rod for a proper weld.. Randy
Now you have made me curious. What about using TIG rod when gas welding?
Randy Zimmerman wrote:

It melts at a slightly higher temp than gas rod, so it tends to stick to the puddle. At school students always get the 2 mixed up on the tables.
Yes there is a reason(s). But first: the copper coating is very light and only meant to add some protection against rust.
Are you sure you mean 'carbon steel.' Most stuff like a truck bumper etc. is made from mild steel which is different from high carbon steel.
My first try at TIG was with RG45, a oxy/acet filler rod. The weld was not very good, my poor TIG technique notwithstanding--porous and looked rough. On advice from lamentations here, I got and used ER-70-S2. The general difference is that a TIG rod has more oxidizers and in most situations eliminates the little pinholes that a gas rod will leave.
I believe ER-70-S2 is considered the general purpose mild steel TIG rod.
I am not sure why TIG rod needs oxidizers. I am also not sure if a TIG rod would work with gas welding. I'd like to read some answers here on these questions.
Ciao, David Todtman
My mistake it should say ER instead of ES on my OEM post.
My other question is that if I needed to stock one rod for general purpose mild steel (carbon steel) TIG, do I purchase the ER70S-2 or -6?
I've got some stainless rod either 308 or 316 that works great on mild steel, but not sure if that would be cost effective or as strong? B.G.
General purpose is ER70-S2.
I have used 316 for MS. It flows well. It is the appropriate choice when joining SS to MS. As you note, when comparing cost, it is more dear than the ER70S-n series.
Ciao, David Todtman
My betters will correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you want to use ER70S-2. I tried ER70S-6 and it leaves a noticably rougher bead. But maybe something in my technique...
See below for information taken directly from the AWS specifications for both the gas welding rods (R45 and R60) and the TIG welding rods (ER70-S2 and ER70S-6).
Note the following items regarding the differences in the chemical compositions:
1) Both Mn and Si are deoxidiers but ER70S-2 requires the addition of small amounts of other powerful deoxidizers. 2) Increasing the Si level generally also provides increasing fluidity to the molten weld puddle (i.e. it should flow easier). Therefore, the ER70S-6 should provide a smoother weld bead than ER70S-2. This is indicated in the usage information listed below. Also note how low the Si levels are for the gas rods compared to the GTAW rods.
Chemical composition requirements from AWS A5.2 (gas rods) and A5.18 (GTAW rods) [I hope the table layout is readable after posting]
rod carbon Manganese Silicon
R45 0.08 % max 0.50 % max 0.10 % max
R60 0.15 % max 0.90 - 1.4 % 0.10 - 0.35 %
ER70S-2 0.07 % max 0.90 - 1.40 % 0.40 - 0.70 % plus required small amounts of additional deoxidizers Ti, Zr, and Al
Useage information from AWS A5.18 (GTAW rods)
ER70S-2: "...primarily used for single-pass welding of...steels...Because of the added deoxidants, these filler metals can be used for welding steels that have a rusty or dirty surface, with a possible sacrifice of weld quality depending on the condition of the surface. ...[U]sed extensively to produce high quality, high toughness welds with the GTAW process."
ER70S-6: "...intended for both single- and multiple-pass welding. They are especially suited for sheet metal applications, where smooth weld beads are desired, and structural and plate steels that have moderate amounts of rust of mill scale.

DENVER, Colo. (AP) Regional Transportation District officials say clean-diesel buses are a less expensive option to update an aging fleet instead of buses that run on compressed natural gas.
The Denver Post reports Sunday (http://goo.gl/SQo8AE ) that the RTD Board of Directors decided last week to go with diesel to replace 52 buses. RTD officials say $34.6 million was budgeted for replacement buses, and CNG buses and the facilities they require would cost more than that.
Officials say they were also concerned about how CNG buses would perform in cold weather and high altitude.
Colorado is among 22 states that have pledged to add more CNG vehicles to their fleets.

Arsenal Message Board
A Yahoo! User Sep 20, 2006 20:49 Flag
Why are Arsenal fans so sensitive?
We all know you are the quietest fans away from home, not to mention Highbury 'the library' was the quietest stadium, this can't be argued by even the slowest of individuals on this board (byebury et al sit down and shut up).
Is this because you are all sensitive souls who dont leave home without mummy making you a packed lunch, kissing you on the forehead and watching you skip down to the Arab Emirates stadium where you all laugh and joke (in french) about how unsafe and loud all the English grounds are, as opposed to you guys who can sit down in the peace and quiet of Fortress Arabia where the slightest shout gets you ejected by the ground?
I dont know, but I have never witnessed so much crying and moaning from one set of fans! You sure can dish it out, but my god you can't take it (unless its from your boyfriend)!

This child always does... I have never seen him put a single sensible football post on this board, its always jibe/insult/jibe with him and when you fire back at him he doesn't like it and certainly never responds to the issues raised... he goes for another insult.
Arsenal fans generally are interessted in discussing football, which is why we react strongly to idiots like this coming on with nothing sensible to say. Make a sensible point even if its critical and it will be responded to well I am sure, make a nonsense post and it won't.
it entertains me to no end that stil today you are not over the fact that your team have been outplayed and that we kicked your ars! It must have hurt you that even AF did not try to hide the fact that you were outplayed. I love the anger i feel from your message and i look forward
to some more of your dissapointment poorly disguised in your sensless posts.

Hmm.... Agreed warpsin made a good point - well here's another we dont need to reply back to this fool cuz he has been banned from the MAN U board as very few of us know - he has been kicked out of there so what he does is come here and fill the pages for us!!! Grow up Roonaldo and stop behaving like the 13yr old u are!!! if u really dont wanna talk about football and ur not allowed to talk rubbish in the MAN U board and wanna talk rubbish in another club that performs well then i'll give u a good way out why dont u go to the Chelski board they seem to have a lot of garbage and ppl bashing to talk abt why dont u try ur luck there maybe they will accept u as one of their own - we all feel sad for u having been rejected or shud i say ejected from ur own board so why dont u go and try the Chelski board - Seems like its a psychological problem - do u feel lonely? outcast? hated by all? and still pretend to enjoy it? then u seriously need some serious counselling boy!!! One more thing the Liverool board seem to talk sense very often too so dont try ur luck there!!!
An Honest Friend!!! LMFAO!!!
Because we are OK!...Is that ok for you Poonaldo, Is that the kind of response you wanted ?

So during the game I could hear the cheers for Arsenal, if we were so quiet are you saying that the Man U fans decided to cheer for us? Well I guess this could have been it, they might have decided to cheer for a worthwhile team. A WINNING team.
What, just like yours...Christopher

Points in the bag are good, but you're only as good as your last game. Arsenal's last two games were WW, Man U's LD.
Rather be a gooner than a manc ;)
Erm, DLDW. Guess where the W was!!!! :p

Least I don't go and hide when my team loses. I also wouldn't lie about it. Oh and check out what warpsin8 said about you it made me smile. It'll make you feel so precious that someone cares. Now I'm looking forward to your reply (spelt with a p) as you know you can't deal with not having the last word.

Tengo que dar una buena valoración tanto a los anfitriones como al alojamiento:
1. La situación muy buena así como la limpieza, en presencia es exactamente lo que se muestra en las fotos y todo esta en buenas condiciones, han prestado atención a posibles necesidades que se pueden tener sobre todo al llegar y dejan algún detalle por el cual les doy las gracias. También es muy calentita.
2. Martin y Edwan han sido muy atentos, dan respuesta bastate rápidamente y resuelven las dudas sin problemas además de dar una información clara. Están muy atentos tanto antes de ir como a la llegada como en el retorno.
Como sugerencia diría que se acuerden un poco de los que hablamos español o bueno más bien poco ingles sobretodo en el manual de la casa.
nettes Appartment in optimaler Lage in der City von Edinburgh und trotzdem ruhig - der örtliche Service kümmert sich super
En super god lejlighed. meget veludstyret. Ligger perfekt i forholdt de forskellige attraktioner der er i Edinburgh. Fin service fra værten Martin
Best regards. Morten Bønløkke, Danmark
Great experience, very central, four people can live quite comfortably
Cozy, clean and well equipped apartment. The location is fantastic. We enjoyed our stay very much and were sad when we had to leave. We also enjoyed the roof terrace very much.
We would like to come back in one of the next years.
Great apartment with a perfect location close to just about everything :-) The apartment is spacious (we were two people staying there) and even though it is so centrally located in the city, there was almost no noise at night - an important thing when you value a good night's sleep ;-) Everything regarding the booking went very smoothly, Martin send us the keys in advance along with a very detailed description of how to find the apartment. All in all it was a delightful experience to rent this apartment, and we would definitely love to come back another time.
A little gem in Edinburgh ... centrally located ... nice roof terrace with a great view to the sea. Martin is very friendly and helpful. definitely recommended!
For several days in May, my friend and I had a very comfortable stay here in Edinburgh's Old City. This well-maintained apartment had all of my favorite amenities and was ideally located for excursions to Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace, Arthur's Seat, and whisky tastings. Even before we arrived, the nice man who owns this snug little place (which was surprisingly quiet), kindly made sure that we had milk for our tea. Two other advantages are these: if you are not dragging excessive luggage, you can walk here easily from the train station, and the bus to the airport (cheap!) stops about a block from Bull's Close.
Good appartment, clean and close to center.
No problem check in and out.
Owner mailed us the keys and when leaving we dropped them trough the letterbox.
Hi Martin
The flaw is lovely and we have had a great time in it. The location is perfect to spend some days in Edinburgh.
Thanks a lot for everything

I just received one of your vacuums I ordered from The Vermont Country Store. I am very pleased with it. I have 4 cats, 3 are long-haired, and I am very impressed with the ability of the machine to pick up cat hair. There is plenty of power and I like the compact size. Thank you for keeping your factory in the USA, and for offering a Made In the USA choice for a vacuum.

Elias Nassar, manager of IBO bantamweight champion Vic Darchinyan (36-3-1, 27KOs), has advised BoxingScene.com that his fighter is willing to move up in weight to challenge WBO super bantamweight champ Jorge Arce (57-6-2, 44KOs).
