Goethe toured the cave three times, as did Heine, treading in the footsteps of Stone Age inhabitants and Ice Age bears, some of whose skeletons are on display. The neighbouring Hermannshöhle is more modest, but its stalagmites and stalactites more impressive. The two sets of caves tend to open on alternate days; call in advance to find out.

The French National Institute of Health and Medical Research (Inserm) is teaming up with in vitro diagnostics firm Sebia to develop a biological assay that can both diagnose and indicate the severity of beta thalassemia. The test is based on quantifying free alpha globin chains in patients' blood, an approach developed by Inserm researchers working with a team at the genetic disease unit at the Henri-Mondor-Chenevier Hospital.
Sebia will support research carried out by Inserm, which will continue to develop the test. Sebia will in return have the potential to acquire exclusive rights to commercialize the test internationally. "This test provides an immediate indication of the severity of the disease, since the results can be available within a day, whereas it took a week with the old methods," comments Kamran Moradkhani, associate practitioner at Henri-Mondor-Chenevier Hospital. "It ensures that diagnosis is oriented toward identifying the different mutations at work and gives us highly relevant indicators for comparing different groups of patients."
Initial validation of the test has already been carried out, and a further trial will be carried out in 2013.

It's now official, well, kind of. This official Droid X2 spec sheet looks to be the real deal. The Verizon device has already cleared the FCC is with this spec sheet, we expect to see it very soon. Does the spec sheet hold any surprises?
The major specs have remained constant:
-8MP camera
-HD video, 1080p playback with HDMI out
-1GHz dual-core Tegra 2 processor
-4.3″ qHD touchscreen
-Android 2.2
So what were the surprises? Assuming the product launches with these specs, the RAM is a bit of a disappointment. We were hoping for 768MB but here we find just 512MB. While the processor is faster than the original Droid X, extra RAM would have made things much snappier.

I've never been an amazing artist but I do enjoy turning my hand to the paper occasionally. As a kid I was always doodling and drawing, but 99% of the time my subject matter was horses (being a horse mad teen) and as such as my art skill in other areas has never really gone anywhere...
Some of my older work:
Sorry for the crappy BB pic, this is one that I'm currently working on:
Basically I'd like some advice on how to broaden my skills from just crappy horses to actual... I dunno, art work?!
Hit a large drawing/art block

Maybe try drawing pictures of people from photographs... just using pencil/ink
then move on to colour
Get a small sketch pad and sketch people on the bus. You are lucky you can do horses! I've never gotten the hang of animals, apart from cats. But then again cats sit still for very long periods of time and are the perfect life model.
Practice drawing things directly observed. You could try setting up your own still life and sketching it from a variety of angles. Or set up a mirror and create a self portrait. Go outside and observe the nature. Practice a wide variety of different subjects and develop your work based on what you feel most inspired by. Good luck!
Thanks guys... I seem to have started another horses head But I had a crack at drawing a person from a photo and I just can't seem to get it right. Practice makes perfect though, so carry on I will!
Well if you're crazy about horses, make some more creative artwork with them as a subject, rather than just these simple sketches. They're good sketches though.

UAlbany Graduate Showcases Biology through Artwork
Sarah Haze is not your typical biology major. The Valatie, N.Y. native transforms what's under the microscope into a work of art.
Upon graduating summa cum laude on May 19, Haze's Art Biologic will be on display at the Limner Gallery.
UAlbany student Sarah Haze, a biology major, will graduate summa cum laude on Sunday, May 19, as part of the University's 169th Commencement ceremonies.
"Growing up, my family had a lot of pets," she said. "Not just normal family pets like cats and dogs, but different types of lizards, noisy birds, and hamsters."
They also had a 16-foot Boa constrictor. "I think growing up surrounded by different animals gave me an appreciation for how interesting they are and the biology behind them."
She is also a champion of a liberal arts education. While at UAlbany, Haze was able to study photography along with her biology classes. She believes this gave her an opportunity to test out some of her concepts on classmates.
"I think humans tend to assume we are the superior beings, but studying the complex structures built by biological systems like plants is very humbling." She decided to produce art using photography from her microscope images. Haze felt her artwork might interest those who are often intimidated by science.
Haze's work has been exhibited at: the 2013 Mohawk Hudson Regional Invitational at the Albany Center Gallery; 2012 Artists of the Mohawk-Hudson Region at the University Art Museum; Sculpture on Display at the Spectrum 8 Theater; and Best of SUNY 2009 at the Albany International Airport, among other venues.

Samsung Spinpoint HD203WI 2TB HDD review -
Final Words & Conclusion
Final Words & Conclusion
The Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD203WI is what it is, a bulky and huge storage unit. As such the performance was as expected. Quite honestly for a 2000 GB unit at 5400 RPM the performance really is quite okay. At the beginning of the magnetic platters you'll see read speeds of over 100 MB/sec fired at you, and when data is stored at the end of the platter .. you are still seeing 50'ish MB/sec performance at worst.
That makes a drive like this extremely suited for mass storage of large files like your music, photo's documents and media content. Are there downsides ? Well sure there are. At 6 cents a GB you can betcha there are some quirks, first off, when you tasted SSDs for a while you completely forget how fast they really are. There's literally no access time with an SSD. Your average fast HDD like a VelociRaptor will have a 0,7ms access time and the Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD203WI tops it off with 0,14ms sometimes even ,016ms .... and that's just slow. So the minute your HDD needs to write on several locations of it's respective platters, that's where it's going to hurt the most.
Say if you'd put an OS on this HDD you can be sure it will be slow at accessing data. But hey, this is a 5400 RPM drive and it needs to sift through the 2000 GB of data stored on it. It shows really well with the PCMark Vantage HDD test, which crushes a traditional HDD yet makes the SSDs shine, and that's a good representation of OS and work desktop behavior.
We feel as a secondary storage unit this 2TB monster HDD makes the most sense. Another quirk, though the drive itself is not at all noisy, we did stumble into the fact that the HDD resonates a lot. If you pick it up while it's active, you can feel the vibrations in your hand. So if you insert it into a PC, make sure you have it tucked away in some sort of rubber mount as resonation and vibration can be an issue for some of you, it can create noise when the PC chassis starts to pick up that vibration.
Other than that, this really is a terrific drive for the money. We can't believe we picked up a 2000 GB drive at just 117 EUR and in the USA less than 150 USD. So our recommendation, pick up a drive like this as secondary storage unit for mass file storage. Pop in a fast HDD/SSD for your OS and primary application and rest assured as then you'll gain the most from your PC. With our tips spread out, we can recommend the Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD203WI, it's not the fastest kid on the block but comes at a great price for a very capable high volume drive.

Oy! It's the Queen of Farklemt!
Once She Was a Richman: the Real Star of Mike Myers's Saturday Night Live 'Coffee Talk' Sketches Is His Mother-in-Law, Linda Ruzan
Like "buttuh"—you know, the dairy product. The phrase is now more Myers's than Ruzan's. Or, to be precise, it belongs to Linda Richman, the Jewish matron whom Myers plays on SNL skits and who bears a very close resemblance to his mother-in-law. Linda, the big-haired, seriously manicured cable-TV hostess of "Coffee Talk," almost vibrates with emotion whenever she discusses subjects dear to her, such as her idol, Barbra Streisand. In fact, she's apt to become farklemt—just like the real Linda.
Farklemt? "What it means is 'overwhelmed with emotion,' " says Ruzan (née Richman). She learned this and other expressions from her husband's parents, who spoke mainly Yiddish. (Her marriage ended in divorce after 30 years.) "But I don't like to bother anybody when I'm choked up with emotion," adds Ruzan. "So what I started doing was this." She covers her mouth with one hand, lowers her face slightly and thrusts her other hand forward in a stop motion. Myers's variation on this is Linda Richman's urgently telling her guests, "Talk amongst yourselves!"
Ever since the "Coffee Talk" hostess made her debut in 1991, viewers have been laughing amongst themselves, farklemt has become the un-likeliest of buzz words, and Ruzan, who recently moved from Queens to Manhattan and runs a TV-commercial casting and research agency called Hidden Talents, has been trying to figure out why, indirectly or not, she has emerged as a hit. "I, of course, thought I was just absolutely unique," she says, laughing. "Now people tell me, 'God, you remind me of my cousin Harriet, my cousin Marilyn, my cousin Esther'—and that's fine in New York. But then you hear it in Idaho and Iowa and Missouri, and where are all these Jewish women hiding out, you know?"
But Ruzan is unique. "She's such a spark," says Myers. "She's a haimisheh—a warm person." When they were introduced in 1987, Ruzan, he claims, greeted him: "Look at that goyish ponem [a gentile face]. A goy, huh? Are you hungry? Want a bowl of Scotch? Are you a Streisand fan?"
That sounds uncannily like the maven of "Coffee Talk." When she first saw Myers doing his SNL Linda, says Ruzan, "I just roared." For one thing, "except for getting into make-up, he had been imitating me right to my face for about three years." And she doesn't mind? Feh! "It's clone with love."
She frankly adores her son-in-law, who collaborates with Robin in writing "Coffee Talk" segments. "If my daughter gave me money and said, 'Do me a favor, here's money, go buy me a husband that will also satisfy you as a mother-in-law,' I couldn't have done a better job." Three and a half years ago, when Robin's brother Jordan, a playwright, died at 29 in a car crash, "Mike was just unbelievable," says Ruzan. "He just kind of said, 'C'mon. Life is going to go on and let's have a good time.' " Pause. "And certainly a good time was Barbra Streisand in Las Vegas."
That 1994 New Year's concert was a farklemtfest. Myers—who briefly joined Streisand onstage in his Richman getup (Babs had put in a "Coffee Talk" cameo on SNL in 1992)—introduced his mother-in-law to the star at a rehearsal. Recalls Ruzan: "I said to her, 'I waited 30 years to meet you, but I'm going to kiss my daughter first.' And I walked over and hugged and kissed Robin and Mike, just to gain my equilibrium." She describes Streisand as a "teeny-tiny, skinny white little angel. She kissed and hugged me, and I just thought to myself, 'Oh, my good God, this is more than I can bear.' "
As a celebrity in-law, Ruzan is actually bearing up quite well. "I can be on a bus and hear people say, 'Oh, I'm so farklemt today,' or 'It's like buttuh.' And I just sit there and think, 'Hmmmm.' Andy Warhol said everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame? I have 22 minutes of fame, all right."

Early retirement is treating Mike Piazza well. The former all-star New York Mets catcher and wife Alicia Rickter are now raising two daughters, having just welcomed new addition Paulina Sophia to the family.
"We are blessed to have two healthy girls – we are so grateful," Piazza, 41, tells PEOPLE.
Paulina arrived on Aug. 3 at Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami, weighing 6 lbs., 3 oz., and measuring 24½ inches long. She and mom Alicia, 37, an actress and former Playboy model, are healthy and happy, says a Piazza rep.

WEEK IN REVIEW: Lindsay Lohan in Car Suit
Originally posted 02/04/2005 03:00PM
LEGAL LOHAN: Two people are suing actress Lindsay Lohan in a personal injury claim, while her estranged father is threatening to fight for what he insists is his share of her earnings. In court papers, Eddie Pamilton and Ilex Harris claim Lohan was driving in Studio City, Calif., on Aug. 3 when she struck Pamilton's vehicle, leaving the pair with continuing "pain, discomfort and physical disability." They seek unspecified damages. Back on the East Coast, Michael Lohan is suing Lindsay's mother, his estranged wife Dina Lohan, for half of her stake in Lindsay's annual earnings. He estimates his cut to be $3 million, the New York Post reported. The actress's reps have not commented on either case.
Mets' Mike Piazza Marries Baywatch Star

WED: New York Mets baseball star Mike Piazza, 36, married former Playboy Playmate and Baywatch costar Alicia Rickter, 32, before 120 people at a candlelight church ceremony in Miami on Saturday, the Associated Press reports. With former Mets pitcher Al Leiter and Detroit Tigers catcher Ivan Rodriguez among the baseball stars in attendance, Piazza and Rickter took their vows at St. Jude's Catholic Church before boarding a yacht to a lavish reception at nearby Fisher Island. Auxiliary Bishop Ignatius Catanello of the Diocese of Brooklyn performed the ceremony and said the Mets catcher was nervous "like a regular groom, but he's OK." Rickter wore a white satin Vera Wang gown and was joined by five bridesmaids, including maid of honor Angelica Bridges, a Baywatch costar, and Playboy Playmates Brande Roderick and Lisa Dergan.

Brown and Houston exchanged smiles during a 5-minute court hearing in Atlanta, the Associated Press reports. Judge Barry Zimmerman also ordered Brown to turn himself in to authorities July 10 or 11 for fingerprinting. The judge also warned him against having "violent contact" with Houston. The couple left the courtroom walking arm-in-arm and made no comment to reporters.

Comments Thread For: Botha: Sonny Bill Williams Offloads Balls, Not Punches
South African heavyweight boxer Francois Botha is a devoted rugby lover and he treasures his country's traditional ties with New Zealand's All Blacks.
Botha said on Tuesday that his February 8 World Boxing Association (WBA) international bout against offload maestro Sonny Bill Williams in Brisbane will go a long way to winning the admiration of All Black fans both in New Zealand and South Africa.
"Sonny Bill's a master of the offload but the difference is that he offloads balls whereas I offload punches," said Botha, who has lost nine kilos in the past month as he prepares to ressurrect his career at the expense of the New Zealand heavyweight champion Williams, who is a dual rugby league and union international.

Anyway, a good sign that Botha has dropped 20lbs, but in his last fight he was 275, so that'd put him at 255.
I'd like to see him at 240, but it'll have to do, hopefuly its not a set up job

I know people from New Zealand need something to get excited about and represent their local guy, but come on. This sonny bill guy looks like a clown in their. Just watched some of his fights on YouTube. If Botha has 1/10 of anything he had back in like 1996 left he will KO him in the first round. Whoever just said they want to see him fight David price or any other real prime boxer is crazy. He'd be killed. You can't be serious.

If Botha wins this(if he doesn't its time to retire)he will be in the top 10 WBA ratings. He has lost his recent fights but he's in all of them & is still competitive. One of my favorites. He's not broke, he just still likes to fight. If its not boxing then he'll fight K1

In John Gibbons' mind, Jose Bautista was the right man, in the right place, at the right time.

9/24/2016 | Liriano whips up vintage performance vs. Yanks
Devon Travis was only 15 years old when Francisco Liriano became an instant star at 22 as a rookie with Minnesota in 2006. They're teammates now, but Travis vividly remembers admiring Liriano as he posted a 12-3 record and 2.16 ERA that year.
9/23/2016 | Yanks, Jays continue Wild Card clash in Toronto
The Yankees' playoff hopes are dwindling, but a momentum-building win in Toronto could swing the tide forward. On the mound for New York on Saturday at Rogers Centre will be left-hander CC Sabathia, while the AL Wild Card-leading Blue Jays counter with Marcus Stroman.
9/23/2016 | Blue Jays break out, push Yanks back in WC race

However, on Monday night, a Toronto delegation led by club president Mark Shapiro will disclose details of a proposal to remain in Dunedin during a Dunedin city council meeting, a team spokesman said.

9/21/2016 | Western Canada has invaded Seattle
Toronto arrived in Seattle earlier this week with a league-worst 5-11 record in September and a two-game lead in the American League Wild Card race that seemed to be slipping away. In a recent series vs. the Angels, the Blue Jays were sluggish and sloppy, but the club has looked rejuvenated this week and the fans from Western Canada deserve at least some of the credit.
9/21/2016 | Happ joins Blue Jays elite with 20th victory
J.A. Happ became the sixth Blue Jays pitcher in franchise history to earn 20 victories in one season after Toronto defeated the Mariners, 10-2, on Tuesday night at Safeco Field. He's the first since Roy Halladay went 20-11 in 2008.
9/21/2016 | Blue Jays alone atop Wild Card after 4-homer rout

9/20/2016 | Saunders on other side of Toronto-Seattle rivalry

9/20/2016 | Estrada steps up in playoff-like atmosphere

9/20/2016 | Jays look to strengthen grip on Wild Card in Seattle

Earl, a retired U.S. Marine who turned 26 last week, had his right hand amputated following an IED attack in Iraq in 2006. In the video posted on Monday, Earl surprises his two daughters -- Aubrey, 3, and Chloe, 10 months -- with his new hand. He also attempts to cut a steak, goes fishing and discusses how the prosthetic will change his day-to-day life.
The Earls are one of eight families across the country to be featured on the program, which examines several issues that are expected to be key in deciding the 2012 presidential election.
In addition to his injury, Kyle and his wife Krystal, who is expecting their third child -- a boy due in October -- do not have jobs. Their oldest daughter Aubrey also has a rare genetic disorder and she requires constant care.
The couple's youngest daughter Chloe recently underwent throat surgery at the Helen Devos Children's Hospital in Grand Rapids. She was discharged from the hospital today, Krystal Earl said.

(This is what I do though I'm not sure how close to rotisserie chicken it will be-its been years since I had one and I've forgotten how they taste.)
The basic recipe:
Remove guts from chicken. Pat dry. Season inside and out with salt, garlic, and pepper. Bake breast-side up at 375 degrees for about an hour (till done), baste occasionally if you remember (I usually don't). The chickens I get are usually fatty and even though I trim off as much fat as possible they don't end up dry or tough cooking this way.
Wrap with bacon
Stuff bits of butter under the skin (helps to get the skin really crispy and keep breast meat from drying out-also adds flavor)
Season with salt, garlic, rosemary, and lemon-pepper inside and out. (Also lay thin slices of lemon over breast area to add lemon flavor)
Slather BBQ sauce on the last 15-20 minutes of cooking
Something I've been doing lately to get baked chicken, veggies, and gravy all at once:
Brown all sides in duck fat using an oven-safe pan. Once brown lay breast-side up and add carrots, onions, and celery to pan and inside chicken. Bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes (or till done).
Remove chicken, set aside to rest.
Strain veggies from pan liquids for a side dish.
Add about a cup of water, chicken broth or wine to pan and deglaze the pan. Add 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup heavy cream if you want a creamier gravy. Simmer and reduce to desired thickness. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You can also leave the veggies in and use an immersion blender to blend them in with the cooking liquids for a thicker gravy.
You can also pan-fry mushrooms in the cooking liquid and make a tasty gravy from there.

Starting today, Cherry Voodoo is now Triple Voodoo Brewing.
Cherry Voodoo originally started as a Bay Area cooperative, paying homage to the music, ink and art scene. As our mission has evolved, our focus on making interesting, high-quality, craft beer has become our passion.
In the new name, "Triple" more accurately represents the vision of our founding partners and our three unwavering principles: a passion for creating the extraordinary, a desire to share those creations with the world, and an ultimate goal to help make the world a better a better place for everyone. "Voodoo" comes from our passion for conjuring magic in a glass, and our fascination with the mysterious and the misunderstood. Yuri Green, Triple Voodoo's brew master, loves to bend the rules of chemistry to create amazing and unique styles, using what he calls "voodoo science."
In addition to the name change, Triple Voodoo Brewing is also debuting "limited edition" batches of two new Triple Voodoo styles. Triple Voodoo Vermilion is a red IPA brewed in homage to the all mighty Cherry Voodoo Gangster. Vermilion is a hop forward red IPA with a very dry finish and a bit less alcohol than it's inner city inspiration. Triple Voodoo Whit Dream is the distant cousin to our very popular Tripel. Whit Dream is a Belgian Witbier with added character in form of orange peel and coriander seeds.

Mountains of experience to help you discover the very best of Mallorca on foot.
Mallorca has long been a special place to visit for many reasons and now you've got another one!
Mallorca: Car Tours and Walks (Landscapes) ~ Valerie Crespi-Green
This was the first walking guide for Mallorca, the guide that won Sunflower the Sunday Times "Oscar" for best travel guide - and eventually made the island one of the most popular walking areas in Europe (and a favourite destination for bird-watchers, too). The author has lived on Mallorca for 30 years and knows the island intimately.
Sunflower Books; 8th Revised edition edition (16 April 2015)
Walking in Mallorca ~ June Parker
"Walking in Mallorca" quickly established itself as the most comprehensive guidebook to the island, with particular emphasis on the rugged Serra de Tramuntana. June Parker's routes have been walked afresh, carefully checked and amended where necessary, and are now presented with new mapping and plenty of colour pictures. This book will entice walkers well off the beaten track, enabling them to explore the most diverse terrain around the island. Rugged mountain walks contrast with remote valleys, while waymarked trails give way to long-forgotten mule tracks and hidden mountain passes. Some walks run close to breathtaking cliff coastlines, while others pass through sleepy villages where welcome refreshment can be obtained. Birdwatchers, geologists and historians will find abundant interest throughout Mallorca, and a full introduction explains about facilities around the island. Language notes are given in native Catalan and Castilian Spanish, enabling visitors to pass the time of day with local people and make the most of their visit to the island.
Kindle version available!

Walking in Mallorca - Dry Stone Paths
The promotion of walking in Mallorca on the dry-stone paths is considered to be an excellent way for the acknowledgement of the dry-stone walling heritage and the support to an activity within reach of everyone regardless of fitness and age. For those who enjoy walking this is an easy way of covering the whole territory and taking pleasure in the landscape and in what the path has to offer (history, art, tradition, legends, etc).
The Consell de Mallorca began this promotion restoring and signalling the ways of heritage or walking interest. Subsequently, they brought on more ambitious initiatives in the form of two walking routes: the Dry-stone Route and the Artà-Lluc Route.
These routes meant the creation of itineraries and simultaneously they are a way of revitalising the economy of the adjoining towns, respecting the environment at all times. Walking helps to recover heritage elements linked to the route, strengthens new touristic products and creates a new leisure offer for residents. Furthermore, it contributes to promote regional gastronomy and craft work and thus to recover farming and traditional trade, favour the creation of local companies, etc.
The two aforementioned projects are GR (long-distance) paths, meaning pathways with a distance over 50 km, signalled and approved by the Spanish Climbing and Mountain Sports Federation.
These GR paths are signalled by markers and direction signs. Markers are wood posts with indicating arrows displaying the GR colours (white and red). Direction signs have a sign indicating the type of path, its number, destination and, when deemed convenient, the approximate walking time.
For more information see the excellent pages provided by the Consell de Mallorca on Walking in Mallorca.
GR221 Mallorca's Long Distance Walking Route ~ Charles Davis
WALK! GR221 MALLORCA S LONG DISTANCE TRAIL - THE DRY STONE WAY If you want to get away from it all , there is no surer way than strapping on your boots, shouldering your backpack, and embarking on a long distance path; and there are few long distance paths more beguiling and more crammed with adventure than Mallorca s GR221, La Ruta de Pedra en Sec or The Dry Stone Way.

Late Ozil goal earns Real draw against Dortmund
Submitted by Keval Sharma on Wed, 11/07/2012 - 08:58
Madrid, Nov 7 - A free kick from Real Madrid midfielder Mesut Ozil in the last minute of normal time gave his side a vital 2-2 draw at home to Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League football game in the Santiago Bernabeu.
That draw, plus Manchester City's 2-2 draw at home to Ajax Tuesday, keeps Real Madrid behind Borussia in their qualifying group, but retains their advantage over the English side, who they will visit in their next European tie, reports Xinhua.
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho made one change to the side that defeated Zaragoza 4-0 at the weekend with Xabi Alonso replacing Michael Essien in the home side's midfield.
With Karim Benzema out though injury, Gonzalo Higuain continued in attack partnering Cristiano Ronaldo and Angel De Maria.
As usual in their home ground Madrid started strongly with Gonzalo Higuain and Luka Modric both going close, before Borussia showed their quality thanks to left back Marcel Schmelzer.
It was a warning Madrid didn't heed, because on 28 minutes Marcelo Rues took advantage of space down the Madrid left to flash a shot past Iker Casillas in the Madrid goal.
The scores were level soon afterwards as Pepe powered a powerful header into the back of the visitors' net from a Mesut Ozil cross from the left.
There were still 11 minutes left in a vibrant first half between two powerful and fast sides, but it was Borussia who retook the lead in the last minute of normal time as the Madrid defence totally failed to deal with a long ball from the keeper and Mario Goetze again beat Iker Casillas with the ball touching Alvaro Arbeloa on its way into the back of the net.
Mourinho made two changes at the break bringing on Essien and Javier Callejon for Modric and Higuain, who had suffered a muscle injury.
Madrid got the goal they deserved in the 90th minute when Ozil scored a free kick. (IANS)

Parts of the green belt should be sacrificed for housing because they are of "negligible environmental value", according to a report by the Royal Institute of British Architects (Riba).
Laws protecting green belts, which were created around towns and cities to prevent urban sprawl, have prompted developers to "jump" over them and build in "genuine countryside".
The institute says the number of homes built each year in Britain should almost treble to 300,000 to meet demand fuelled by population growth.
In a report entitled Building Better Britain: A vision for the next Government, it says ministers should order a review

WEST CHESTER, Pa. (AP) - The Latin name for hops is Humulus lupulus, lupulus meaning wolf. So when the New York City area sales manager of Victory Brewing Co. suggested a name for the brewery's double India pale ale that debuted last fall, he mistakenly thought "humulus" meant earth and proposed Dirtwolf.
"I was like, 'You know what, you're a little bit off on your Latin,'" said Bill Covaleski, co-owner of Victory, as "humus" is the Latin term for earth, not "humulus."
For those breweries in the business of craft beer, it's not only important for them to create beers full of flavor and aromatics but also to create a suitable and distinctive name. "Naming beers is a little bit like naming children," said Brian O'Reilly, brew master at Sly Fox Brewhouse in Schuylkill. "You certainly want it to be interesting, but not so much that it's distracting."
Brewers said that the beer names have come in a variety of ways - employee suggestions, patron suggestions, a collaborative effort or an outside agency. Sly Fox's Route 113 IPA was named after a dare.
"One of our customers dared us to make a beer as hoppy as the route that we are on," said O'Reilly.
Hops are measured in international bittering units, and Sly Fox is located on Route 113. So the IPA has 113 IBUs, which is a very hoppy beer. And that's not the only unconventional way Sly Fox, has named a beer - it names its seasonal maibock beer after the winning goat at the annual Sly Fox Bock Festival & Goat Race. Now it's named after Simon.
"We just did a big event and we had some farmers show up with goats, and it developed into a really, really big event now," said O'Reilly.
At Victory, some beer names exist before the beer is ever brewed, as Covaleski has a list of beer name ideas that he is waiting to use for the right beer. Victory's Golden Monkey was originally an idea for a Hellerbock beer with a lot of hops added. But when Covaleski and his business partner, Ron Barchet, decided not to brew that beer style, Covaleski saved the name for later. The Golden Monkey sold today is a Belgian-style tripel, and the name is perfect for the beer.
"It's a very strong beer, very seductive in character; most people don't realize its strength. And so we like to joke that golden denotes something premier, premium and it's got all European ingredients. And monkey is always something playful," he said. "It's really after your second Golden Monkey that you really understand the monkey part a little bit better."
Covaleski constantly has a backlog of name ideas, but Free Will Brewing Co. in Perkasie names its beers after they have been tasted.
"We just call it a sputnik and put a number on it and put it in our tasting room," said co-owner Dominic Capese. "Once one of these beers gets some traction, that's when the creative juices get moving."
Free Will Brewing Co. doesn't have a restaurant like Victory and Sly Fox, rather patrons can try the brews in the tasting room. The company has packaged and sold about 20 different beers since its founding in 2010. Capese said that all employees are encouraged to help name the beers, and the best name wins because a good name is important for several reasons. Some of the popular ones are Techno IPA, Hop Geek and Ralphius RIS.
"I think that when it comes to someone's recollection of a particular product ... I think by adding a name it gives a little bit of personality to that product," he said.
"As great as our beers are - we pride ourselves on the quality and the flavors of them - we don't kid ourselves. If Golden Monkey had been named Victory Belgium-Style Tripel it would have not nearly achieved the success it has," said Covaleski.
But since craft beer has experienced a resurgence, there are a lot more breweries that often come up with similar names.
"It's getting harder to be creative because a lot of good names are being taken up," said Covaleski.
However, there is a lot of respect and camaraderie in the business, he said.
"In the end everyone's searching for creativity. And if two people find themselves trying to occupy the same creative space, it doesn't make sense," he said. "Someone should yield."

'When Balenciaga sent sweatshirts with Martians on down the catwalk, a high street scramble followed'
Adieu, Nicolas Ghesquière. The architect of what are arguably the edgiest clothes and accessories of the past ten years recently announced his shock departure from Balenciaga.
The current trend for sci-fi emanated almost entirely from his sketchbook. When Ghesquière sent out Dune-style slogan sweatshirts onto the catwalk featuring irradiated rainbows, unicorns and Martians, little did he know the high street scramble that would follow. Fast-forward to November, and Topshop is selling lunar landscape sweatshirts for £32, devoid of the leather sleeves and neoprene bodies that made the Balenciaga one cost £750. (Despite those hefty price tags, they sold out long

International Water Transfer and Sharing: The Case of the Ganges River
Anik Bhaduri
International Water Management Institute
Edward B. Barbier
University of Wyoming - College of Business - Department of Economics and Finance
Environment and Development Economics, Vol. 13, pp. 29-51, 2008
The following paper is concerned with water sharing of the Ganges River between India and Bangladesh, with possible augmentation through water transfers from Nepal. We analyzed the case when water from Nepal can be transferred to Bangladesh through the upstream country, India, as the local geography only permits such water transfer. A game theoretic model is formulated to determine the optimal share of water diverted to Bangladesh by India, and the optimal amount of water transfer from Nepal. India may gain positive externalities from such water transfer. The positive externalities generated from water transfer from Nepal may influence the water share of both India and Bangladesh. In the absence of altruism, India would allow less water flow to Bangladesh than in the case when there is no provision to buy water from Nepal. We also explored whether positive externalities could induce India to buy water jointly with Bangladesh, and such a case will only occur if the countries possess altruistic concerns and share water according to an agreement.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Mark Twain San Francisco
Beware of this location
This hotel is among many shelters and there are crack heads galore in the area of Union Square. Sheets were dirty and room unpleasant. 1 person ran the entire Hotel at check in. Try Cow Hollow, less $ and FAR superior location.
I love San Fran- but this was a bummer
we were looking forward to a getaway for a few nights... booked off of hotels at the executive hotel mark twain in san fran- the union square area... the hotel wasn't what we were expecting- hotels gave it a 3 1/2 star- i would rate it more a 2... it looked great from their website- but it wasn't. it was really noisy due to the street below... even with the windows closed- it was LOUD. we parked a few blocks away and had our car broken into- definitely a shady area at night. PAY FOR VALET OR GARAGE PARKING IF YOU STAY IN THIS AREA- it's worth it.
Great Location
We stayed at the Mark Twain in April, 2005. It was in a great location -- 2 blocks from the start of the cable car line. It was very clean and the staff was very helpful. I would definitely stay there again.
Also, we ate at O'Douls pub right up the street. It was really good and inexpensive.
Old, musty & dusty
I stayed here recently on a business trip. I paid about $80.00 a night.
The building is old. While my room was basically clean, there was mold in the shower and the carpet had some suspicious stains.
There was also mold in the stairwell, which I used only because the hotel elevator was so very small and creaky. Unfortunately, on my last night there, an innumerable amount of Japanese students arrived at the hotel and kept stuffing themselves in the elevator like it was a phone booth. They also sat up most of the night yakking and giggling, which I could hear quite clearly through the thin, thin walls.
The parking is a rip-off, even for San Francisco. Proceed up 1/2 a block and use the garage on O'Farrell for 1/2 the price.
It isn't a bad place, unless you are used to modern conveniences.
I wouldn't stay here again, unless I needed a place to drink myself to death.
Comfortable but a little noisy
We stayed for 5 nights at the end of October 2004. The staff were mainly friendly and helpful and the room had all the basic facilities that we expected although, as they had tried to cram 2 queen size beds into a fairly small room, there wasn't too much space. The hotel is centrally located, just behind the Hilton and within easy walking distance of the major shops and plenty of restaurants.
While our stay was pleasant there were a few things that weren't so good. The hotel is in a noisy neighbourhood, right on the edge of the Tenderloin district where many of the homeless hang out. This meant that there was a fair amount of noise which wasn't helped by the protestors outside the Hilton Hotel (the Mark Twain wasn't affected by the Hotel workers lock out but many of the other major hotels in the area were which only added to the noise). In addition to the outside noise, we found that the walls between rooms were very thin and for a couple of nights we had someone with the TV on all night on one side with a bunch of partying teenagers on the other side. The final thing that we were less than happy about was when the Hotel's 'Inspector' - yes that's what it said on her badge - disturbed my wife while she was trying to rest, despite the 'do not disturb' sign outside. Apparently this is hotel policy.
Now that we've found this web site we probably wouldn't stay at this hotel again but I would highly recommend a visit to the Sultan restaurant under the hotel - the food is excellent and the price is reasonable.
From booking to checking out there was nothing but hassles
it started when i tried to book the hotel, i had a question so i called...and called...and called... no one picked up, just ringing. finally when the woman answered the phone she was uninformed and put me on hold for over 5 minutes.
when i went to check in they had no record of my reservation and i had to stand in the lobby for 30 minutes while he called around. Finally i got my room key. Since the location of this hotel is horrible (ghetto pretty much) my friend was forced to use valet parking for his hummer. they charged $38 for one night and the man that picked it up couldnt figure out how much change from $40 and sped off in it.
finally we (all 4 of us) head up to the room. we get into the elevator which fits one comfortably and try to find our way through the narrow and stuffy halls. i open the door to the room and it just smells...reeks really. something between wet dog and mold. the beds were disgusting and you could barely get into the porta-potty sized bathroom because the toilet was in the way of the door. the vents were connected so we could hear our neighbors puking all night.
we woke up to protesters at 8 am across the street (not their fault) but since the windows were so thin you could hear everything they said. check out went smoothly untill it came time to get our car back. 30 minutes we waited in the lobby, finally it showed up.
i just checked my bank account and they charged me $100 ontop of the $99 from Travelocity, it really been nothing but hassles. i wouldnt recommend this hotel to my enemies.
We had a good stay.
Stayed at hotel during mid September 2004. Our hotel stay went very well. I thought about cancelling our reservation after reading the trip advisor reviews. I am glad I did not cancel. The hotel staff, especially Eric, were friendly and helpful. Also, our room was clean, and the furniture was okay. The noise level was low except for the mornings. However, the noise was not uncommon for a busy area in the city. I would definitely stay at this hotel in the future.

Budget price, less than budget accomodations
Stayed here for 4 nights at the end of a northern california trip. The price is good and the location is close to all union square activities but the hotel is pretty terrible. The desk staff were nice and the lobby is nice looking but the rooms are tiny. Tiny would be okay and is understandable in an older building but they were very DIRTY! - the carpet was stained and needed to be replaced, the bathroom was dirty - hair all over the floor, the sheets were ripped in many places and clearly very old and the window are filthy. We stayed in a room right on the main street which was so noisy we didn't sleep for four nights. Earplugs helped a bit. Of course the hotel can't do anything about being on a city street - that I understand, but the Hilton (across the street) allows their tour buses to idle from 4am on and the noise and exhaust fumes are ridiculous! Point is, nice people, not a good hotel - for the money you can easily spend only a little more and be somewhere nicer - not to mention CLEANER!
Graet Budget Hotel for good price
Arrived mid-late August for 2 night stay. Reception were really friendly and lobby clean and presentable. Check in and Check out really simple and easy.
Room was okay - in need of a little make over but was clean and comfortable. Fridge was an assett. No air-con but didn't really need it as it wasn't 100 degrees heat! Good shower!
Great location, 5-10 mins walk from Union Square, cable cars, muni stations etc. Our room faced main street (it is on Taylor Street) and with windows open could get very noisy!
My husband and I thought it was a great price for just somewhere central to sleep and wake up. We stayed at Fishermans Wharfe after, and although hotle there was more 'plush', we didn't feel it was worth double what this cost!! Depends what you want really.... but I would definitley reccommend it for a budget, great location hotel.
Stayed there May/03 and had OK stay.
We only stayed here one night while on our way to Lake Tahoe. We loved San Fran. We probably won't stay here again. Would prefer Fisherman's Wharf location. Not much to do around Union Square. Hotel was OK. Check in was simple, pretty good rate. You must valet park. The room was small and I was surprised to find it had no Central A/C. We had to open the windows, which was OK for early May. Rather old building converted to a hotel. Was OK, but wouldn't stay again.

Travel Blogs from San Francisco
Alcatraz & 1, 2, 3 Strikes your out!
We had booked the 1pm ferry to Alcatraz so headed towards Fisherman's Wharf with plenty of time so we wouldn't miss it. We found a car park nearby & the cashier told us the daily charge was $17 if we left prior to 7pm as there was a ball game on. As we walked out the car park we noticed AT&T Park directly across the road & wondered if tickets were still available. 10 minutes later we had brought two tickets that were reasonably priced & in ...
