Man charged in Corry business burglary
CORRY -- City police said a tip and an assault report led them to a man accused of committing a business burglary Monday morning.
Ryan A. Butcher, 23, is accused of prying open a door to enter Ray's Garage, 1011/2 W. Smith St., and steal items including reciprocating saws, toilet paper and a roll of quarters.
Police received a tip about Butcher's possible involvement in the crime and were getting ready to go to where he was staying when officers got a call about an assault in the same building, Corry Police Chief Rich Shopene said Tuesday.
Officers who responded to the building in the 700 block of West Main Street saw some of the stolen items in plain view, then served a search warrant and found other items that had been stolen from the garage, police said.
Officers also found some items that were reported stolen in other recent burglaries, as well as some small marijuana plants, according to investigators.
Butcher was taken into custody and was arraigned Monday night by Corry District Judge Brenda Nichols on charges of burglary, theft and criminal mischief. He was placed in the Erie County Prison on $10,000 bond.

Junior B.J. Cunningham matches Dell in size and continues to improve on the smaller parts of his game. Like Dell, the Westerville, Ohio native should be expected to have his biggest season as a Spartan. Last season Cunningham was a clutch performer with 23 of his 48 catches giving the Spartans a first down.
While Dell and Cunningham are the big sized type receivers that can give you the play when you need it, Junior Keshawn Martin has the ability to explode past a defense and score any time he touches the ball. While Martin showed his skills on special teams, he continues to improve in the finer points of the game making him a deep threat teams will have to pay attention to.
Keith Nichol showed signs of being a very solid player this spring and his continued development gives the Spartans a tough receiver capable of going over the middle for the hard fought catch.
While it would be easy to stop with these four players, the Spartans have also got several young players looking to open the eyes of coaches between the start of camp and the season.

Look, dudes talk (make content and comments) about wearing next to nothing in their own house and you don't bitch at them for it. She wasn't being sexual, just a normal ******* person. But because she mentioned she's a girl you instantly saw it in a sexual way and thus called her a slut without basis.

The early modern team at King's includes experts in the histories of the Reformation and the Enlightenment; gender; the material world of the Renaissance; race and racism, and on Britain, Ireland, France, the Netherlands, Portugal and the Iberian world. Our research connects the political and the social, the cultural and the religious dimensions of the early modern world, and our programme encourages interdisciplinary perspectives on early modern history.
The MA programme bridges the conventional division between British and European history, focusing on ways in which cultural, political and social themes stretch across the period c.1500-1800. The course ends with a tightly focused dissertation, but it begins by encouraging students to test concepts (identity, mentality, religion); to challenge models of change (modernization, state-building, the civilising process, reformation, enlightenment and revolution); and to try out methodologies (cultural history, gender, thinking with material objects, global history, using digital data). Modules taught by experts in the field offer thematic perspectives on religion, society, politics and culture, examining primary sources of all kinds alongside the most recent historiographical interpretations of the field. Students' practical skills are developed by a module on advanced historical skills, including palaeography; Latin from beginner to advanced levels; and optional study of a European language. The flexibility of the programme means that students can extend their expertise by taking relevant modules from other departments in, for example, early modern English or French literature; the Iberian world; and Digital Humanities.
Teaching The MA in Early Modern History is taught in small seminars of generally between 8 and 20 students, largely through discussion and debate based on extensive reading. Students can also attend relevant undergraduate lecture series such as Power, Culture and Belief in Europe 1500-1800 and Early Modern Britain 1500-1750. Students on the 1 year full-time programme attend 6 hours of taught classes per week over the year, whilst students following the 2 year part-time MA typically attend 4 hours in one term and 2 hours in the other each year. The compulsory 15,000 word dissertation, completed over the summer, enables students to research a topic of their choice, working one-to-one with an academic supervisor.
Studying early modern history in London Studying in central London provides students with a wealth of opportunities and exceptional access to the sources and material artefacts of the early modern period, including relevant buildings, libraries, archives and exhibitions. Remnants of the early modern city survive in the narrow streets and fragments of the old City Wall in the City of London, the planned grandeur of Covent Garden, the eighteenth-century squares of Bloomsbury, the Huguenot quarter of Spitalfields, the oldest city churches and the newer ones built by Wren.
The archival resources in London are vast. The principal records of the City and Westminster are within easy reach at the London Metropolitan Archives. Ecclesiastical records are over the river at Lambeth Palace Library. Public records of the period are a short tube ride away at the National Archives in Kew. London is also the home of many other archival and manuscript resources for the early modern period. The British Library's Manuscripts and Rare Books Collections are enhanced by, for example, the extensive collection of early printed books at the College's own Maughan Library; the Wellcome Library for medical history, and many other smaller archives. Visual resources of the period are easily found at the National Portrait Gallery, National Gallery, Courtauld Institute, Tate Britain and the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Students on the MA have access to an excellent range of library resources. Our long-standing expertise in the early modern period means the College Library has an extensive collection of journals and books in this field. Students also use the British Library, Senate House Library (University of London) and the Institute of Historical Research. Access is provided to the most significant online collections of primary printed material, Early English Books Online and the Eighteenth Century Online and to JSTOR and other online resources for secondary material.
Graduate community London offers a strong graduate community, where students can follow up almost any interest. Students are strongly encouraged to participate in the seminars at the Institute of Historical Research (IHR), where there are ten regular seminars on the early modern period alone, many of them convened by members of the King's History department.
The MA Early Modern History programme offers a rigorous introduction to the advanced study of early modern history, providing training in the historiographical and technical skills necessary for doctoral study, but is also designed for those who want to deepen their knowledge of the period.
Full-time study: 4-8 hours of taught classes per week plus dissertation tutorials. Part-time study: 2-6 hours of taught classes per week plus dissertation tutorials. The MA in Early Modern History modules are assessed by written coursework (and for one required module, a take-home exam). The 15,000 word dissertation enables students to research a topic of their choice, working one-to-one with an academic supervisor.
Students on this course are required to take the following modules (worth 120 credits):
Approaches to Early Modern History
Advanced Skills for Historians
Part-Time Students
In year one, students are required to take 40 credits of required modules
In year two, students are required to take 80 credits of required modules, including the dissertation

Sienna's Sweet, Shoe-Inspired Nursery
Genevieve Ghaleb wanted to participate in making my dream baby girl nursery come true, and with her great design flare combined with my DIY ideas, I don't think we could have been a better "design" match. But then came the "crazy ideas" according to my husband. The first one... "We should paint the wood floors!" This one was a tough one for him to swallow and he literally tried to make me change my mind a good 200 times, but when I told him it was what I wanted and there were no way I'd change my mind (blamed it on the pregnancy hormones)... he just followed along (and boy was I hoping it would look fabulous, otherwise I would have to live it down for the next 25 years!) The floors, as my friend Gen tried to explain to him, was the core to the nursery... I wanted to do something you didn't really see in nurseries and painted floors was just that. I don't think they could have been more perfect! The perfect shade of mint with some white and coral stripes. Seeing as the shoes were an important element to the room design, I wanted to make sure to highlight them and what better way than to frame them on the wall. I purchased some small frames at a thrift store, painted them gold and framed the fabric found in the crib and a quote I found to fit perfectly: "Cinderella is proof that a pair of shoes can change your life" The total nursery cost ($1,061) was a little over budget (I was aiming for $750) but considering everything we've done, I have no regrets! Thanks Kelly! Readers, see more of Sienna's room as well as a resource list at Blush Ink. (Images: Anne-Emilie Sayegh) • MY ROOM ARCHIVE • SUBMIT A BABY OR KID'S SPACE

4:15-4:45 Use of Biomarkers and Translational Science to Accelerate and Improve Oncology Drug Development: Opportunities and RoadblocksJ. Carl Barrett, Ph.D., Global Head, Oncology Biomarker and Imaging, Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research, Inc.The steps in oncology drug development in patients include: optimizing dose-schedule, predicting patients that will respond, detecting tumor responses rapidly for proof-of-concept trials, using surrogate endpoints for disease monitoring, assuring safety of drug therapy, and developing rational-based combination therapies. Biomarkers are pivotal in meeting each of these challenges. A general strategy for using biomarkers in oncology drug development will be presented and includes: having a systematic biomarker plan for each new agent that is consistent, science-based and focused using common standards for assays and data; building a biomarker tool kit with analytically and clinically validated biomarker assays; building on clinical experience (positive and negative) and execution excellence involving a team effort (physicians, clinical staff, biomarker experts and data management) and building a strong partnership between Novartis and its clinical investigators.
4:45-5:15 Panel Discusson: Biomarker Translation in Oncology Drug Development
Discussion topics include:
• Biological and analytical validation
• Biomarker translation from animal to human

A soap opera called Baktún is the world's first Maya language telenovela.
The show has 24 episodes, which are playing on TV in the Yucatan and also on YouTube.
There are approximately 750,000 speakers of Maya in Mexico, but the language is dying out.
Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights says:
"Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
The Communist Party-controlled government of China, of course, suppresses this human right by heavily censoring the Internet.
There used to be an app called OpenDoor, which enabled iPhone users to overcome this suppression of human rights by giving them access to information censored by the Chinese government.
Apple has removed the app from the Apple App Store. The company also removed a different app that provided access to books banned in China.
It's likely that Apple did so either as a form of kowtowing self-censorship or was ordered to do so by the Chinese government as a cost of doing business in China.
Either way, Apple has traded human rights for cash, has conspired with the Chinese government to suppress human rights, and it's a despicable act.

1. They get hot and can burn people.
2. They can explode.
3. They can damage the eyes.
4. People will get electrocuted.
5. The system requires an entirely new and costly infrastructure.
6. It requires new sources of energy.
7. It will eventually cause global political imbalance and war over energy.
8. Artificial light will confuse and possibly kill birds. (See separate lists on the dangers of glass and steel, which will lead to glass highrises.)
9. Wires will be a blot on the landscape.
10. Harsh light will be a blot on the landscape (imagine Times Square).
11. There will be no privacy on the street for those leaving houses of ill repute.
12. The candlewax industry will be hurt.
13. The natural gas industry will be hurt.
14. Lamplighters will lose jobs.
15. Human beings will lose sleep.
15. People will suffer from tired eyes.
16. Being expensive, some people will have light and others will not, leading to a divide in society: the lit and the not-lit.
17. People will read too much. (See separate list of objections to Gutenberg's technology)
18. They could cause fire.
19. They will lead to people leading unnatural lives outside of natural body rhythms of light and dark.
20. They will lead to an increase in trash.
21. They will lead to an increase in pollution.
I couldn't come up with more. I guess Champion wins.

1. Soup Can Be Quick
The secret to super quick soup is to use ingredients that are pre-cooked or will cook in the time it takes to boil the water or stock.
2. Soup Fills You Up With Less Calories
Because soup contains more water than solid foods, it fills us up with less calories. A study at Penn State confirmed that people who ate a chicken and rice soup as opposed to a solid chicken and rice meal ate 26% less.
3. Soup Doesn't Need Homemade Stock To Taste Amazing
One thing that used to keep me away from soup was the misconception that you needed wonderful home made stock to make full flavored soup. Once I realized that great soup just requires great tasting ingredients, a whole new world of soup opportunities opened up.
4. Soup Is Pretty Independent
Unlike other quick cooking methods such as stir frying or grilling, soup can be made with only minimal supervision. Just pop everything in the pot and let it simmer (or boil if you're in a hurry) until you're ready to eat. Too easy.
5. Soup Is Very Forgiving
There tends to be a large window where soup tastes delicious. Unlike a steak which requires clock work precision, it's actually pretty difficult to under or over cook a soup. Even forgetful cooks who end up with a scorched bottom can usually rectify the situation by transferring the unburned parts to a clean pot and adding the word 'smoked' to the soup title.
6. Soup Doesn't Require Much Cleaning Up
Most soups can be made with just one pot. What's not to love about that?
7. Soup Can Keep You Cool
It can be easy to forget about soup during the Summer months. But if you do, you're missing out on the cooling properties of soup.
Green Curry Broccoli Soup
serves 2
While I tend to prefer fresh broccoli, this soup is also great made with frozen broccoli florettes. Just pop the frozen broccoli straight in the pan – it shouldn't take much longer to cook and will save you the chopping step.
To make this soup in under 10 minutes, boil water in the kettle to speed things along. When chopping the broccoli, I like to finely slice most of the stems and add them to the pot so I minimize the wastage.
3 – 4 tablespoons green curry paste
1 cup coconut milk
2 heads broccoli, chopped into bite-sized pieces
2 – 3 tablespoons smooth nut butter
1. Heat a large saucepan on a high heat. Add a few tablespoons of cream from the top of the coconut milk or some oil. Stir fry the curry paste for 15-30 seconds or until you notice the aroma. Be careful not to burn.
2. Quickly add 2 cups water and the coconut milk. Bring to a simmer.
3. Add broccoli. Bring back to a simmer and cook uncovered for 8-9 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
4. Remove from the heat. Stir in the peanut butter. Taste and season with a little salt and/or natural sugar to taste.
smooth – purée the soup with a stick blender until you have the texture you're after.
fragrant – serve with a handful or Thai or regular basil leaves scattered over the top.
nut-free – replace the peanut butter with a little sugar and some fish sauce to season.
almond butter – the first times made this soup I used some home made almond butter which was just delicious.
carnivore – simmer some finely sliced chicken breast or thigh fillets along with the broccoli.
other curry paste – while I think green curry works best with broccoli, feel free to use yellow, red or massaman curry pastes.

Look at life as a whole—study its manifestations in order and disorder, in health and disease.—Osler.
The most characteristic features of the medical profession, features which distinguish it from all the other walks in life, are its dedication to the service of mankind and its devotion to the spirit of research. Medicine is the only world-wide profession the members of which follow everywhere the same methods, actuated by the same ambitions and pursuing the same ends. Its strength lies in this universal doctrine, and although it may be tinged with national characteristics, in its wider aspects it is a force which knows no country, which transcends all national limitations and which acknowledges no distinction of race, color or creed and no sovereignty but that of the mind. Science has done much to alleviate the unhappy conditions in which so many persons live. All this has been achieved by

Discussion in 'Australia' started by BigM, Apr 17, 2007.
Ha ha, he's working! But ItsGotToBeYellow and I headed out to Pt Gawler and whilst he dropped from the V Strom to the RMZ, I gave the 220 kg+ Tiger the flick and jumped on the WR250F.
Last time I was out there in anger on a bike was about 1975/6 I reckon. It was playing on my mind that I'd just walked out of the surgeon's office with him laughing about a hip replacement sometime this year and then I'm out mixing it in sand at Pt Gawler.....
Managed to get IGTBY on the gas....not a bad action photo either...
That is a great photo, looks like Kym is 1/2 serious about this Finke caper. Better get my arse into gear and start practicing.
I think I'm redundant for the next magazine article.............
Meant to talk to you about that.......better bring the good equipment to the Classic...
EDIT: PS, wanna buy a swag?
Hey Guys,
How has ownership of the Tiger 800s been? I have noticed you seem happy with the beasts. Not asking for me; I am with its got to be yellow ( Vstrom/DRZ)
How long have you got? I have my dream bike.
There's one or two good secondhand ones for sale in Oz, but they get snapped up pretty quickly if they're any good.
Send your buyer over here for a test ride......I reckon PBee and I have them set up pretty well for what we do.
With Wally..
Great photo, go Kym..
So, you taking a week off in June Sol?????????
I owe you a nice bottle of red...
For Info: Bernie is running a car in a fund raiser for the RFDS in August and will be auctioning some hot laps in the 956 Porsche he races (read.. WEAPON) if anyone's interested I can tell you from previous experience that you will need to bring a change of clothes, wet bag and towel.....
Coming from a 990 I can't believe how happy I am with the Tiger.
Podge gave me some Krooztune springs for the forks & I reckon the front end
steers better than the Toom with very little understeer.
The motor is a torque monster down low with a great top end.
The motor tends to be very linear from bottom to top with no real power band.
The bike is just easy to ride.
I love it.
G'day Trev, unfortunately I cant get any time off this year in June (as it's our 'stock-take' time of the year ), however will be taking off 2 or 3 weeks in late July.
I might be up in Gawler sometime in the next 7 days, will give you a call the day before.
I would be keen to buy tickets to win some hot laps with Bernie in his 956, that would be awesome..
Cheers, Sol..
Sequent and I need to get hold of a cheap utility or van for the Condo 750 event weekend to transport our rally bikes to and from the event. Anyone know of one available? Must be running/rego'd but minor work is fine.
Hi folks,
Just a heads up. After getting hounded for long enough , I finally figured some dates out for another Pooncarie trip. Basically, as follows:
-Wed 21st to Sun 25 May
Wed - Head for Lindsay Island via Old Loxton Rd/Bakara Well/Loxton.
Th - Lindsay Island, follow Murray where possible, Wentworth, then dirt to Pooncarie.
Fri - Lake Mungo, return to Pooncarie via Garnpung Lake.
Sat/Sun - Couple of return options.
With any luck, the Darling won't be flooded this time, and we might get a chance to get up to Bindara Stn.
Drop me a PM if you're interested. I'm not sure if the general store will be open over the winter period, but will have to organise fuel again, if they're closed that is, so an idea of numbers would help.
Hey anyone recommend a good honest place in Port Augusta to order some tyres from for when I pass thru there in a couple of weeks.. and maybe leave a old set there for a few weeks..?
Northern Motorcycles.....mates of Kipo's, and Pop's daughter works there....they are always helping travellers.
Thanks Trev.. sounds like what I need...
Does that mean you're mobile again, dammit!
Will be come Tuesday... 3 weeks turned into 5 days..
Well that's good news. Yay.

And when you close it back up, the latching mechanism can only be accessed from underneath - this means extra security with a locking tailgate.
Your TruXedo Truxport Tonneau Cover installs in just 20 minutes, without any cutting or drilling. TruXedo backs your Truxport with a 5-year warranty.
Note: The Truxport fits under-the-rail and spray-on bedliners, but it will not fit over-the-rail liners without minor cutting of the liner. The Truxport works with all factory and most aftermarket plastic bed caps, but it will not fit stainless or aluminum bed caps and rails.

Did not follow packaged instructions. Used YouTube video which was extremely easy to follow. Went on truck smoothly, and easily. Materials are high quality. I would buy this again!
Install Time: 30-60 minutes
It was the perfect gift for my husband. I had ordered the wrong size, but had absolutely no issues with returning it and getting the right one for him.
Install Time: 30-60 minutes
Cover was a quick and easy install, everything required was included with the purchase. The truxport tonneau cover from AAG was a great value.
Install Time: 30-60 minutes
Easy to install, took about 40 min to complete on my Toyota Tacoma. All the components seem to be of good quality. Left the next day for a 2000 mile trip to Seattle for the holidays. Put all of our luggage, laptops and gifts in the truck box. The tonneau kept everything dry. The rollup function is easy to use, a feature I was looking for, as I use my truck to haul bikes etc... When you put the tonneau back on, it stretches out nice and tight. Has been on my truck for about a month now. I have to say I love it. As you will notice in the pictures, the tonneau is square, while most pickup boxes are slightly narrower at the rear. The appearance would be improved greatly if the tonneau matched the trucks contour. Admittedly, I have a strong preference for symmetry. This might not bother everyone, but it's worth noting. I bought my truck for functionality, the tonneau enhances this. Would recommend this product.

Demolition is near for PTC's Ruby Tuesday to make way for Walgreens
The final site plan for Peachtree City's new Walgreens pharmacy was approved following Tuesday night's planning commission meeting. The drugstore will take the place of the Ruby Tuesday restaurant, which was vacated late last month.
Firefighters and police were able to use the restaurant at the corner of Ga. Highway 54 and Peachtree Parkway in recent days for training purposes, which resulted in a few broken and removed windows, officials said.
The city is asking residents to use extreme caution during construction when they are using the Walgreens site to access Rite Aid and other businesses in the area, said Community Development Director David Rast.
The Walgreens, however, will only be about 1,000 square feet larger than its next-door competitor: Rite Aid pharmacy.
The Walgreens has drawn criticism from residents because of the proximity to Rite Aid and because the Walgreens building will be much closer to Ga. Highway 54 than the restaurant was.
But the planning commission won a number of concessions on the architectural and landscaping plans to help soften the presentation of the building.
The commission got the store's main building sign shrunk a bit to make it fit within the architectural features on the column of the tower feature.
Developer United Retail has also committed to making sure the existing landscaping stays at the corner of the intersection, and is also adding landscaping islands to the site, including one on the Peachtree Parkway side to beef up screening of the store.

We raise most of the money for these fellowships during the Fall Auction and Spring Pledge Drive, but you can donate at any time using PayPal.
What your money buys.
The money raised by TLF goes straight to funding public interest fellowships. Each dollar you donate helps three sets of people: A worthy public interest organization gets help it desperately needs; people who can't afford legal services get free assistance; and UT Law students get valuable real-world legal experience in a tough legal market.
Who gets the fellowships.
After we identify how many fellowships are available, we sort the candidates by the number of votes received. Two thirds of all fellowships are awarded by membership vote. A committee selects the remaining one third of fellowship recipients based on each applicant's commitment to public service. We then grant as many fellowships as we can, awarding them based on voting results.
Pledge Drive 2016 Donations:
After donating via paypal, you MUST fill out the form available here in order to receive credit for your donation and receive access to vote for applicants.
Online Voting Process:
At the end of each day this week, those who have donated $25 or more will receive an email from firstname.lastname@example.com giving them access to vote for applicants. Please add this email address to your contacts or keep an eye on your spam folder.

Sicilian seductress: How a childhood dream finally came true on a stunning Italian isle
The view from my hotel room in Taormina on the east coast of Sicily was fantastic – insanely beautiful.
When I first walked into my room, I threw open the windows and had this grandstand view over the bay. In the distance was Mount Etna, the active volcano firing a column of smoke into the air.
Immediately below me was a lovely terrace overlooking magnificent gardens. I was staying in the Grand Hotel Timeo. It was the first hotel built in Taormina, so it's not surprising perhaps that it nabbed the best location in this stunning Italian town.
Stunning outlook: The Grand Hotel Timeo was the first in Taormina and commands a spectacular view
It is just off a little piazza near the Greek amphitheatre – one of the most beautiful places in the whole of Sicily. I love to linger in the amphitheatre: they still do plays, recitals and concerts here and also occasionally show movies.
When the French writer Guy de Maupassant came here in 1885, he described Taormina as 'a landscape in which you can find all that seems to be created on earth to seduce the eyes, mind and fantasy'.
Taormina is still a fabulous seductress. The whole town is enchanting. It's not just the location that makes the Grand Hotel Timeo a winner. It is housed in a superbly elegant baroque palazzo. All the rooms are different.
While it's all been extensively modernised and refurbished, it retains the feeling of a palace. You almost expect to bump into a countess when you step out of your room.
Ancient history: Tourists can visit the amphitheatre of the Teatro Greco di Taormina and attend a performance
The great thing about it is that it feels very plush, with wonderful beauty and elegance, yet it is not overbearing.
Interestingly, I have a very powerful memory of visiting Taormina many years ago when I was a child and standing outside the Grand Hotel Timeo.
I remember thinking to myself that one day I would have the money to afford to stay in such a wonderful place. And I've made it!
You can say that this hotel provided me with the inspiration to succeed. As an Italian, food is a very important part of my holiday. I love great Italian food in particular.
Refreshed: Bruno enjoys a cocktail on the terrace of the Grand Hotel Timeo
So I was especially lucky that during my stay they had a chef flown in from the Hotel Caruso in Naples in order to cook pizzas, one of my favourite things in life.
And they were cooked to perfection: my favourite is always the pizza Margherita – just tomato, mozzarella and a little basil. Taormina is a great place for a stroll on a summer evening when the temperature cools a little.
The main street is the beautiful Corso Umberto, which is full of lovely shops and restaurants. At the midpoint there's a fantastic piazza overlooking the sea. There's also a lively little church here that I like to linger by.
One evening when I was here, I was privileged to be an onlooker at a wedding that was something straight out of Vogue. The guests were wonderfully elegant and the bride arrived looking for all the world like Penelope Cruz.
It almost made me want to get married because it was so pretty and elegant. The bride and groom and guests all took off from the church in a fleet of Mercedes and Jaguars. Wow!
I don't think they were particularly wealthy. They were just so naturally elegant and good-looking.
The men all had incredibly stylish suits, beautifully cut; nothing but dark blue or black. Just an ordinary wedding, perhaps, but it looked like an advertisement for Dolce & Gabbana.
Taormina is situated high above the coast. Guests of the Grand Hotel Timeo can easily get to the sea by taking the shuttle down to Villa Sant'Andrea, the Timeo's sister establishment.
The Villa Sant'Andrea is right on the sea, with not only its own private beach but also beautiful lounges and a superb restaurant.
If for some reason you feel you have to get out of Taormina, there are plenty of interesting places to visit close by. Just up the road is the place where they filmed scenes for The Godfather.
And Mount Etna is well worth the drive – as long she's not erupting, that is.
Buzzing: When excursions call, the impressive Taormina Cathedral and the Corso Umberto main street beckon
I passed on the various excursions and did what I normally do on holiday: I stuck to the beach and the restaurant and spent my time reading books – I really enjoyed the new Edith Piaf biography.
Perhaps the book I should have taken was D. H . Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover, which he wrote while living in Taormina. Apparently the character of Constance – who has a passionate relationship with the gardener Mellors – was based on an Englishwoman living at Taormina at the time.
But I didn't spend the whole time quietly reading. I bumped into Andrea Wong, the lady who turned Strictly Come Dancing into Dancing With The Stars for US television.
I hadn't seen her for two years and then suddenly I turned around and she was behind me, on the beach. We were screaming! We had a very nice lunch, talking over some of our good times.
Sicily is really one of my favourite places. I can't wait to go back and enjoy it all over again.

Average volume of NaOH required to titrate 10.00mL of vinegar solution = 22.34mL
Molarity of NaOH = 0.3795 M NaOH
Molarity of HC2H3O2 = 0.8412 M HC2H3O2
Weight % of Acetic Acid in vinegar = 5% acetic acid
1. Calculate the average number of moles of NaOH used in the titration Lab
2. Calculate or determine (giving reasoning) the number of moles of acetic acid in the 10.0 mL sample of vinegar
3. Calculate the molarity of the acetic acid in the vinegar solution
4. Calculate the % error. Compare your results in #3 with the molarity of acetic vinegar as provided by the manufactor
5. Calculate the weight % of the acetic acid in the vinegar. How does this compare with the % listed on the label? Calculate your %error (for this calculation assume that the density of vinegar is 1.03g/mL)
I will give the points to whoever explains step by step how to do these questions
