Diversion and abuse of opiate (narcotic) painkillers has become problematic in this Northeast state, as in many other parts of the country. Products containing hydrocodone and oxycodone have presented the biggest problem for law enforcement agencies, according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration. Prescription painkiller dependence is rarely the fault of the patient. Most people who have a legitimate prescription for drugs such as OxyContin, Percocet and Vicodin and become addicted do so after developing a tolerance. This causes some people to escalate use, which can be a dangerous turning point. Diversion of these drugs has become more sophisticated over the last decade, but federal, state and local authorities have stepped up efforts to cut down on this. Pennsylvania is one of many states to implement a prescription drug-monitoring program, a database that helps identify instances of use abuse and illegal activity.
Prescription opiates are widely available through various avenues, but tend to be very pricey on the street. For this reason, some people turn to heroin, which tends to be cheaper and available in a highly pure form. Bigger cities including Philadelphia and Pittsburgh have seen an increase in the amount of high purity heroin being distributed. The DEA said smaller cities and towns, including Reading, Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton have become lower level distribution points for traffickers and users. Fentanyl is a highly potent opiate medication that is also a problem in terms of abuse and diversion in Pennsylvania. Fentanyl is used to manage breakthrough cancer pain that can't be controlled by other medications. It's said to be much more potent than morphine. Fentanyl is used in preparations including Actiq, which comes in the form of a lozenge, and Duragesic, a patch. The DEA said popular diversion methods in Pennsylvania include the illegal sale and distribution by healthcare workers, doctor shopping, forged prescriptions and the Internet. There are many unscrupulous websites that will ship these medications without requiring a prescription. Some have been shown to provide dangerous, counterfeit and expired medication.
Waismann Method
Opiate dependence has become a serious problem throughout the Unites States in recent years. Enrollment in Pennsylvania opiate treatment programs has also increased throughout the state. Pennsylvania detox can be accomplished in many ways. A professional, medical approach is best in terms of safe, successful outcomes. Waismann Method for rapid opiate detox has treated patients from Pennsylvania and around the world for more than a decade. Our detox takes less than two hours using non-narcotic intravenous medication that cleanses the drugs from patients' opiate receptors. They are put to sleep by anesthesiologists who monitor the procedure carefully. Once it's complete and patients are awake, they are no longer opiate-dependent. Accelerated withdrawal symptoms develop and pass during the procedure, eliminating the fear and suffering that goes with it. Patients are then monitored closely during recovery and can return home within a few days. We also offer an extended care program through our Domus Retreat.

Can Either of These Guys Govern?
Do Americans want to make Barack Obama a one-term president so that they can replace him with a one-term governor? My biggest beef with Mitt Romney is that he won his way into the statehouse in Boston in 2002 only to use it as a perch to run for the White House in 2008. He didn't run for re-election.
Granted, Romney never was a natural fit for liberal Massachusetts, a state with a rich history of big-talking, belly-up-to-the-bar political icons. In their book, "The Real Romney," Boston Globe reporters Michael Kranish and Scott Helman quote a Democratic lawmaker who complained that the Bay State governor didn't even know lawmakers' names.
Sometimes Romney got what he wanted. For example, he balanced the state budget without broad-based tax increases. Other times, Romney moved to the left, even working with former rival Ted Kennedy to pass Romneycare. Sometimes he vetoed Democratic legislation, and often the Democrats overrode his veto.
When Romney tried to elect more Republicans, he failed. The already outnumbered GOP lost another three seats. It might well be that Massachusetts is too liberal for Romney; polls show that Massachusetts voters overwhelmingly support not their former governor but the incumbent president.
Joshua Archambault, the Pioneer Institute's director of health care policy, worked as a legislative aide under Romney. "It's no secret that there was a transition from the governor from spending time in the business world to the political world," Archambault told me. "It took at least a year to a year and a half to work out the kinks."
Over time, Archambault believes, Romney established good relations with the Senate president and House speaker. Robert Travaglini, the erstwhile Democratic Senate president, told Kranish and Helman, "(Romney) brought out the best of us here in the Senate."
So maybe Romney did learn a few things about governing in his one term.
What has Obama learned? Though his toxic relations with Republicans are legendary, Obama's relations with Democrats aren't very cozy, either. In his new book, "The Price of Politics," Bob Woodward reported on an aide to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid who was furious at Obama's fumbling of debt ceiling negotiations, which forced congressional leaders to cut their own deal. "It is really disheartening that you, that this White House, did not have a plan B," the aide told Obama.
The question I keep wondering is: If Obama cannot cut a budget "grand bargain" ostensibly because he cannot negotiate with Republicans, why should voters re-elect him?
In an interview with Time magazine in August, Obama answered that question. If he should be "fortunate enough to have another four years," Obama said, "the American people will have made a decision. And hopefully, that will impact how Republicans think about these problems."
In other words, Obama doesn't think he has to learn from his mistakes. Nor does he want to. Re-elect him and he will be as feckless against GOP opposition in his second term as he has been for the past two years.

So, shouldn't a cornet then be more flexible in terms of note bending than a trumpet if there is no gap? Doesn't the gap contribute to notchiness?
So, shouldn't a cornet then be more flexible in terms of note bending than a trumpet if there is no gap? Doesn't the gap contribute to notchiness?
Ivan, there is a step/gap on the 184 receiver, too. I believe the 184 receiver is a different part number from the 181 receiver. I have an old 181 leadpipe and it's obvious from just looking at it that it's significantly larger at the receiver. The 184 leadpipe has a much more pronounced taper from the mouthpiece end to the tuning slide end. Contrary to popular belief, the 184 isn't just a 181 with an extra curve in the bell.
Probably hard to tell from this photo of mine, but compare the leadpipe diameter at the receiver with the diameter at the water key. The upper leg of the tuning slide is also larger diameter than the lower leg.

A side note...I took a small rat-tail file and got rid of most of the internal step between the receiver and leadpipe. The gap with my cornet mouthpieces was huge (more than 1/4"), so I eliminated it since most cornets seem to do just fine with no step. Yes, I know that I shouldn't "attempt any repairs unless I have the appropriate technical proficiency" , but the cornet has a slightly easier upper register with it gone.

There was an article published somewhere not too terribly long ago - sometime within the last couple of years - that basically stated that other than the wrapping being different, there wasn't much different between the modern cornet and trumpet. This might be be - not sure - but it has some interesting charts listed.

"At my signal, unleash hell."
- Maximus Decimus Meridius
Yes, I've seen that chart and essay many times. Here's what the chart leaves out...The real difference between a trumpet and cornet is not in the amount of conical vs. cylindrical tubing present, but how "conical" the conical tubing is. If a cornet starts out smaller at the receiver and has a fatter bell taper, it will generally be more mellow than the average trumpet, even though the amount of conical tubing may be the same on both instruments. Robb does address this in the body of the essay, and also makes a few other good points: The mouthpiece used matters (of course), the approach the player uses when playing either instrument makes a difference, and there are a lot of cornets that are built with basically the same components as their trumpet counterparts.

I'd say that the most relevant factors are the mouthpiece we choose to get the sound we want out of each instrument, and our ability to color the timbre to our taste.
Other factors are emotional. These include our esthetic enjoyment of the different shapes of the instruments, and the visualization of the contextual use of the instrument, such as cornets and flugelhorns in brass bands, trumpets in orchestras, whether traditional or swing band. In jazz, anything goes, so trumpet, cornet, and flugelhorn each have their place. For variety, Mnozil Brass is King.

This is nice to know for me, as a beginner who likes the "sound" of a trumpet and who apparently can someday get that sound with dropping any more money. I may someday get a cornet just to have it, but it's less important than I might have thought. (Although the fact that they are shorter does make them easier to hold up.)
I wonder how much your approach to playing has an influence too. Even on a trumpet I still have a cornetty overtone to everything I play, I notice it and so do a lot of others, including the majority if the teachers I have had. Could this have more to do with my ear, my approach, style and by dint technique than whether my horn turns once two and a half times or whatever the cornet goes through (off hand I can't remember)

Andy, I think a player's approach has a lot to do with producing a cornet sound (read my post a couple above yours). Most long-time trumpet players pick up a cornet, stick a 3C mouthpiece in it, and conclude there's no difference between a trumpet and cornet. There is a difference, at least when talking about well-designed cornets. That difference is enhanced by mouthpiece choice and the approach to and style of playing - it's a different mindset. I've heard trumpet players who sounded a lot like they were playing a cornet, and part of it was how they played the instrument. It's all relative, though...if you have a really bright tone on trumpet, it will still be a bit bright on a cornet, especially if you don't compensate with a "cornetty" mouthpiece and different approach to playing it.

Orange County Commissioners have appointed Jamezetta Bedford, Matt Hughes and Theresa Watson to fill three of the four at-large positions on the Bond Education Committee.
The three positions were filled by a 4-2 vote at the board's meeting on Thursday with Commissioner Renee Price and Penny Rich dissenting.
The committee will help design and develop a campaign to help spread important information about the bond to the community, according to earlier discussions from the board.
The upcoming bond package is the largest in county history at $125 million; the bulk of the money will be designated to make repairs and update safety concerns at local schools. The remaining $5 million will be used to increase affordable housing.
Hughes and Bedford both ran unsuccessfully for seats on the Board of County Commissioners this March. Hughes has been chair of the Orange County Democrats for several years and Bedford has long served on the Chapel Hill – Carrboro City Schools Board of Education until she decided not to seek reelection last November.
Watson also mounted an unsuccessful run for an elected position recently, campaigning for the Chapel Hill – Carrboro City School Board in November.
One appointed seat on the Bond Education Committee remains unfilled at this time.
Commissioners also voted to designate $20,000 to the County Manager to "support the Committee's work and assistance through a vendor/consultant."
The bonds, $120 million for schools and $5 million for affordable housing, will be on the November ballot in Orange County.http://chapelboro.com/news/local-government/commissioners-appoint-members-to-bond-education-committee
In preparation for a possible bond issuance, Chapel Hill's business management director Kenneth Pennoyer gave the town council an update on how the town is handling its current debt in their meeting Wednesday night.
"There are 81 overall projects that we are currently tracking," he said. "Of those 51 are projects that are funded and are in progress."
The 51 active projects total $36.7 million, while $94 million is expected to cover the 30 projects planned, but yet to be financed.
Voters allowed the town in 2015 to issue up to $40.3 million in bond money.
The bond is scheduled to finance many of these planned projects, but any issuance has to first go through an approval process with the town council.
"I've had people ask me 'when are we going to spend that money,'" Pennoyer said. "And I told them 'there is no money, at least we haven't borrowed it yet.'"
He equated the bond referendum passed by the public in November as being pre-approved for a loan.
Some of the projects scheduled to be funded by bond money include bike lane improvements, park renovations and a solid waste facility.
A few of these planned projects are progressing, even without funding from the bond.
"We will use as much internal financing as we can to get projects moving so that when we get to the point where we're ready to issue debt, projects have reached a state of maturity that we'll have a better idea of how much they'll actually cost."
Pennoyer said the town is in a good position to take on new debt because it has a Triple A rating and a debt per capita of 714 dollars, lower than other AAA rated cities such as Durham, Charlotte and Raleigh.
He said he expects the town to issue the bond sometime in December or January.http://chapelboro.com/news/local-government/town-council-talks-about-debt
Am I the only one feeling we are getting the short end of the stick during the short session of the General Assembly?
I have a few questions on the bond referendum Pat McCrory has requested to be placed on the March 15 primary ballot.
Is this as an effort to improve his image before the 2016 elections?
First, if these projects are so important to our state they should be budgeted, so those who want them are paying for them today, not irresponsibly forcing others to pay the debt and interest for these items later.
Could this blow up Art Pope's tax cuts? I hear from Pat that this $2 billion debt being proposed "will not require a tax increase" in order to pay it off. The taxpayers of North Carolina will be forced to pay, whether it is by a tax increase or by taking money away from other future priorities in order to pay for the pet projects of today.
Why place them on the Primary ballot when fewer voters will turn out to vote? Remember Amendment One? With only a 35% voter turnout it passed with only 1 out of 5 registered voter's approving because of such a low turnout.
He doesn't want everybody to vote. Elections have never been won by a majority of people, even from the beginning of our country and they are not being won now. As a matter of fact, his leverage in this primary election goes up as the voting turnout goes down.
Why not wait until November elections when North Carolina voter turnout is 68-70%?
The problems we face in this election year are many. With voter ID, compacted voting sites, fewer days, and now primaries months ahead of previous years. This has placed many burdens on the poor, young and elderly.
So getting back to my questions.
Do we want this, do we need this and most of all, can we afford this?
–Wiley Post
Chapel Hill residents could vote in November on whether to approve $40 million in bond financing to fund some of the town's high-priority projects.
At Monday night's town council meeting, Ken Pennoyer, business management director for Chapel Hill, said the town's high-priority capital projects over the next ten years include building a new police headquarters and replacing fire stations for a combined cost of $30 million. Town officials also want to spend $6 million in stormwater improvements and replace 40 aging buses, which will cost $21 million.
Pennoyer proposed using $50 million of "installment financing" to fund some of these projects (including the police and fire buildings and the new buses). For example, Chapel Hill could borrow money from a local bank to pay for some buses, and pay off the debt in installments over a number of years. This doesn't require a referendum.
"The main difference between the two is the security," said Pennoyer. "General obligation bonds are backed by the full faith and credit of the town. Installment financings are backed by an asset, one that's considered essential to the town's function."
The town may finance the projects using both methods, but Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt said the council should advocate for bond financing. If approved, he said, it could save residents money.
Pennoyer said each of the suggested bond orders would be a separate vote. Those votes would be on financing the following projects:
On March 23 at Chapel Hill Town Hall, the town council will finalize a referendum plan. That meeting is at 7pm.
Chapel Hill officials are scheduled to work out details of the bond funding over the next couple of months and hold a public hearing in June.
CHAPEL HILL- Both Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools are facing multi-million dollar repairs to fix up aging facilities, but Orange County Commissioners worry there's not enough time to put together a $100 million dollar bond package before a September deadline to get it on the ballot for the General Election.
"I'm a little concerned that if we shoot for 2014 we're not going to do a very good job of getting everything in place and take a chance that it will not pass," said Board Vice-Chair Earl McKee.
He and fellow board members are also wary of taking up bond planning while the county is in the process of searching for a new manager, a search that's taking longer than expected.
At a work session on Tuesday, commissioners expressed little interest in pushing to meet the deadline for a ballot measure this year, instead eyeing the timing of future referendums.
But some, including Mark Dorosin, worry rural residents would be disenfranchised if the county-wide bond went to the voters in 2015, when only municipal races are on the ballot.
"If you look back at the turnout for an "off" year versus an "on" year mid-term election, there's more than 25 percent greater turnout," said Dorosin.
Instead, commissioners said they'd consider May 2016, when turnout is expected to be high for the presidential and gubernatorial primaries, though the board did not rule out the possibility of putting the measure up for a vote next year.
Commissioners say they want input from staff on the timing and process of crafting a bond package, as well as more information from both school systems about what projects are top priorities.
The last bond referendum in 2001 netted the county an additional $75 million for school, parks, senior centers and housing. The proposed $100 million dollar bond would be the county's largest in recent history. But even that would be a drop in the bucket, as the school districts' combined list of repairs is estimated to be more than the county's entire $192 million dollar annual operating budget.
Board Chair Barry Jacobs said voters should know the upcoming bond referendum could be the first of several.
"The needs are too big for one bond cycle, so we say that we're going to have several bonds over a period of time to address several hundred million dollars worth of school needs for both systems," said Jacobs.
The board will discuss creating a possible bond planning task force in the near future.
Meanwhile, the Chapel Hill Town Council is eyeing its own $20 million dollar bond package to replace or upgrade aging facilities. That measure could potentially go on the ballot in 2017.http://chapelboro.com/news/local-government/orange-bocc-backs-2014-bond-referendum
CHAPEL HILL- The Chapel Hill Town Council met with the town's senior management team this weekend to prioritize policy goals based on the Chapel Hill 2020 comprehensive plan.
Council members agreed on the need for more affordable housing, new youth initiatives, a sustainable funding model for Chapel Hill Transit and a long-term solid waste solution.
Mayor Mark Kleinschmidt said within 18 months the Council will be ready to decide what to do with the town's trash.
"The staff really wants this decision made," said Kleinschmidt. "There are on-going conversations with Orange County, with Carrboro and with the City of Durham about how we can cooperate. Now, maybe all those jurisdictions don't come together, but there's some secret match of jurisdictions that can come together to provide those solutions. We don't know what that's going to be yet."
Currently the town pays to haul trash to Durham since the Orange County landfill has closed, but staffers say the town should explore the possibility of building and operating a waste transfer station on town-owned land, a project that could cost $5.1 million.
One of the biggest challenges facing the town is the need to replace or upgrade town facilities and infrastructure.
Business Management Director Ken Pennoyer laid out more than $100 million dollars in capital needs to be financed over the next two decades, including a new police station, four fire stations and completion of the parks master plan.
"We have a fairly significant wish list and needs list of projects that we need to accomplish within the next twenty years, so balancing that is a difficult challenge," said Pennoyer.
The Council will consider planning for a $20 million bond referendum to go on the ballot in 2017.
In addition, Council members discussed the need for increased economic development, enhanced code enforcement and a town-wide stormwater master plan.
The new policy goals will guide the Town Manager as he crafts next year's spending plan. Budget negotiations will begin later this spring.http://chapelboro.com/news/local-government/chtc-sets-priorities-2014-beyond
HILLSBOROUGH- Orange County Commissioners on Tuesday signaled they may be willing to shift the focus of a proposed $100 million bond referendum.
In a prior discussion, the board talked about getting voter approval to finance a new jail, and a fifth middle school for the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools system. Those two projects alone total $73 million.
But school board members from both the Chapel Hill-Carrboro and Orange County districts say aging schools are badly in need of repair, and fixing those could cost as much as $230 million.
Commissioner Mark Dorosin said he'd like some guarantee from district officials that renovating older schools would increase student capacity, delaying the need for new buildings.
"I think if we're going to put any money into the renovation of these older schools, which is much needed, I think we should demand that any renovation increase capacity, whether it's in the middle school or the elementary school," said Dorosin. "Whatever those plans are, that money should have as an additional benefit that it is going to push out the next elementary school, the next middle school, the next high school, whatever it is."
If voters approve a $100 million dollar bond package, Assistant County Manager Clarence Grier told the board that could mean raising the tax rate by 4.18 cents for the next 20 years to cover the $6.7 million annual debt payments.
In order to get the referendum on the ballot for the November 2014 election, the school boards and commissioners must come up with a list of priorities by early June.
Chapel Hill-Carrboro administrators have already completed a detailed assessment of the district's older buildings, while Orange County school officials have a study underway. County Commissioners will discuss the timing of the possible bond package at a meeting later this fall.http://chapelboro.com/news/local-government/bocc-eyes-older-schools-for-bond-referendum

The record heat extended from portions of the Upper Midwest all the way to the Southern Plains where dozens of records fell, most notably at Dodge City, KS which set a new record high for the entire month of October on Monday, topping out at 101 degrees. A cold front is just entering the county warning area early this morning. Gusty southwest winds ahead of the front were holding temperatures well above normal highs for the date with readings in the lower to mid 70s. Meanwhile, behind the front with northwest winds and areas of stratus temperatures drop through the 60s with upper 50s over portions of north central Iowa. The cold front will pass through the area by mid morning, and sweep away the record warmth replacing it with cooler air, although temperatures will still remain above normal. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT Tue Oct 18 2016 Highs for today in most areas have already occurred shortly after midnight. The cold front will pass by mid morning with temperatures falling to around 60 northwest to around 70 southeast, also accompanied by a period of low cloudiness. Precip chances are by no means zero, but too low for mention and if it were to occur would be patchy drizzle or possibly a few sprinkles. Thereafter, mixing of dry air aloft and shallow nature of low level moisture should allow for a return of mostly sunny skies by afternoon. This should allow for some recovery on temperatures into the mid/upper 60s northwest to mid 70s southeast by mid to late afternoon. Tonight will likely bring an increase in high cloudiness attendant to right entrance region of Great Lakes 125+ kt H25 jet. Any precipitation should be confined well to our south across portions of central and southern Missouri into the Ohio Valley where the best juxtaposition of lift and low level moisture will reside. Otherwise, high pressure will build in at the surface with winds becoming light northerly continuing to usher in drier air.

Munich is one of Europe's most cycle-friendly cities, offering miles of cycle paths throughout it's famously "green" center and it's equally picturesque environs. The surrounding Bavarian countryside is a cyclist's paradise. Get your own set of wheels and let the cycle paths lead you wherever you choose.
For example, ride to Konigsplatz (within minutes from the bike collection point), or through the beautiful Old Town center. You can also coast along the banks of the river Isar for a few kilometers or spend an afternoon cruising through the enormous Englischer Garten (Munich's Central Park). There, you can pause for a cold Bavarian beer at the Chinese Tower - one of our world-famous beer gardens. Think of Munich as one great excuse for a bike ride!Bike rental is an affordable sightseeing choice, and the bike collection point is located in the center of town in the main train station. There is a wide range of bikes to choose from and the friendly English-speaking staff will give you tips on what to see and where to go and can provide you with bike accessories and route maps. All bikes are high quality, well-maintained, and come equipped with cycle path maps, baskets and locks.

Game cards trigger memories, stories in 'Lotería'
In an institutional room in California, the aptly named Luz ("light") tries to make sense of the trauma and tragedy that has befallen her family. She has only a journal, the presumed attention of You, the God or higher power she addresses, and a deck of Lotería cards.
In "Lotería: A Novel," debut novelist Mario Alberto Zambrano makes the cards, used in a Mexican game as the visual counterpart of the numbers in bingo, serve as writing prompts. They're not instruments of divination like tarot cards, but, like the tarot deck, the simple, traditional design of the Lotería cards gives them a touch of the archetypal. (Large images of the cards begin each of his novel's short chapters.) »Read Full Article

Chicago exhibit explores enigmatic art of Rene Magritte
A nicely suited man slips a hand into a trouser pocket and tilts his head toward the gramophone. His coat is slung over a nearby chair beside a suitcase. He seems to be savoring a few final bars before taking his leave, an exit that seems unrushed.
Beyond his view, two bowler-hatted men lie in wait, one with a net, the other a club. Just behind him, a woman lies naked, eyes closed and blood raining from her mouth. There it is — the inevitable bit of bloodletting in the otherwise bloodless, tidy paintings of Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte. »Read Full Article

It was the House of Savoy Royal Palace of and is located in the Castillo square at the center of Turin
The facade of the palace is sober, but the interior is decorated very luxurious and s well preserved . It had the participation of the most famous names of the time
Vases, tapestries, ornaments ... make it worth visiting
The scissors ladder (scala of forbishe) connecting the first floor with the second it is said that is a master piece but we could not see it even if we that we tried to see in a couple of times
Era el palacio real de la Casa de Saboya y está situado en el en la Plaza del Castillo que está en el centro de Turín
La fachada del palacio es sobria , pero el interior tiene una decoración digamos que muy lujosa y bien conservada en la que participaron los nombres más famosos de la época
Jarrones , tapices , adornos ... lo hacen digno de visitarlo
La escalera de tijera ( scala de forbishe) que une el primer piso con el segundo y que dicen que es una obra de arte no la pudimos ver a oesar de que lo intentamos un par de veces
After the capital city of the Savoia Duchy was established in Torino, Emanuele Filiberto organized a contest in 1583 to plan a new Ducal residence. Many famous architects took part in it and the winner was Ascanio Vittozzi from Orvieto who worked for the Savoia until his death in 1615 and contributed a lot to transforming the urban asset of the city.
The fa?ade of the new Palazzo Ducale was built in 1586 with a large gallery connecting the courtyard to the castle. Architects Carlo di Castellamonte and Carlo Morello succeeded Vittozzi in the construction of the palace.
Many artists and craftsmen were called in the 17th century to decorate the palace. Among the painters who worked there are worth mentioning Flemish Jan Miel and French Charles-Claude Dauphin. In the Salone degli Svizzeri ("Swiss' room"), brothers Fea's frescoes depicts the legendary origins of the Savoia family. Guarino Guarini built the chapel of the Holy Shroud in 1667-8; it was directly connectedto the left wing of the palace. Around 1690, viennese painter Daniel Seyter celebrated Vittorio Amedeo II in allegoric frescoes located in the galleria del Daniel.
Palazzo Ducale became Palazzo Reale in 1713, when Vittorio Amedeo II was crowned King of Sicilia. Later, also Filippo Juvarra and othe architects worked at the palace. When the Italian capital city moved from Torino to Firenze, the palace lost its function of royal residence and become a cultural centre, which it is still today.
You can visit the inside of Palazzo Reale Tuesday to Sunday from 8.30 to 19.30. Unfortunately, it is not allowed to photograph in the rooms. I took the two photos of the inside just at the entrance of the palace, before paying the ticket.
I recommend you'd visit Palazzo Reale, if possible with a guide (I don't know if there are tours in English): you'll learn many curious facts and anecdotes.
Follow the loop, you will reach this big hall at last.. many gorgeous statues.. and a perspective dome.. it's not truely double layers but just painted as that.. walk around, look at the dome from different angle.. exactly the same view.. well done isn't it?
*The Palazzo Madama is situated in the centre of Piazza Castello, with its facade facing Via Garibaldi. It takes its name from the two Royal Dames who lived here, Maria Cristina and Giovanna Battista. During past centuries it was the habitation of the Savoy family, site of the signing of important treaties, and the Italian Senate took its seat here when Turin was the capital. Today it houses the Antica museum of art. It's historical date is somewhat difficult to determine because it is the result of continual restructuring. The oldest part is the Roman Porta Pretoria. The back of the building dates back to a thirteenth century castle which can still be seen in the two towers situated at the corners. The typically baroque facade was built in the seventeeth century by the architect Filippo Juvarra. The internal staircase is also attributed to him and is one of the best examples of the Piedmontese baroque style.* -- copied from http://www.77turin.com/
At the entrance, there was a big screen showing the history of Palazzo Madama... in Italian though.. You will step on the glass floor, admire the original foundation and basement underneath.
Visiting Castello di Rivoli was always one of my favorite activities when I lived in Torino. Every time there was a new exhibit I hauled my lazy butt all the way to Rivoli... and I was never disappointed!
Castello di Rivoli is located in Rivoli, about ten kilometers outside Torino. It is one of the Savoy's former royal residences and is perched on top of a hill with beautiful views of the Alps. The castle itself wouldn't be spectacular were it not for the recent renovations which have seen it blend the classic architectural styles with modern influences, such as the glass viewing box and the large, iron squares hanging in the courtyard. Today it is home to one of the best, most dynamic contemporary art museums in Italy (and the world?) and a Michelin-starred restaurant called Combal.Zero.
In addition to a great permanent exhibit (featuring works by my personal favorite, Maurizio Cattelan, as well as international artists like Vanessa Beecroft), the Castello also brings in amazing temporary exhibits like the recent Volti nella Folla (Faces in the Crowd) and The Pantagruel Syndrome, which was the most recent Torino Trieniele and focused on human excesses.
Tuesday to Thursday 10 a.m.- 5 p.m.
Friday to Sunday 10 a.m.- 9 p.m
Regular admission to permanent exhibits is EUR 6.50. Entrance to temporary exhibits is optional, and a combined ticket usually runs about EUR 8.
* The castle and museum participate in the Abbonamente Piemonte Museum Program *
Located just south of Torino, Palazzina di Caccia di Stupinigi (aka Stupinigi) is a delightful sight! Topped with a giant deer statue, it is the former hunting residence of the Savoy family. This means beautiful grounds with lots of nicely decorated rooms, and lots of Italians getting their wedding photos taken. Stupinigi frequently hosts art exhibits, and the castle is not always open for exploration, so check with Tourist Information before you go!
Getting to Stupinigi is easy. Take the number four tram and then transfer to the number 41 bus. On the way home, get on the number 41 bus in the SAME direction at the SAME stop, and tell the driver you want the stop for Torino. He will let you off the bus in a few minutes and you then have to transfer to the number 41 in the opposite direction.
Stupinigi palace was one of the hunting lodges built for the leisure of the House of Savoy, and part of the network of residences scattered around Torino. Other than the Royal rooms, gardens and woods, the complex also included farms and warehouses still existing today despite their scope had changed through the years.
The somptuous entrance behind an elaborate iron fencing and gate is watched by a large elk statue perched atop the building.
- Excerpt from UNESCO document -
When Emmanuel-Philibert, Duke of Savoy, moved his capital to Turin in 1562, he began a vast series of building projects (continued by his successors) to demonstrate the power of the ruling house. This outstanding complex of buildings, designed and embellished by the leading architects and artists of the time, radiates out into the surrounding countryside from the Royal Palace in the 'Command Area' of Turin to include many country residences and hunting lodges.
The Residences of the Royal House of Savoy in and around Turin represent a comprehensive overview of European monumental architecture in the 17th and 18th centuries, using style, dimensions, and space to illustrate in an exceptional way the prevailing doctrine of absolute monarchy in material terms.
Listed buildings:
Palazzo Reale - Piazza Castello, Turin
Palazzo Chiablese - Piazza Reale, Turin
Royal Armory - Royal Library - Piazza Castello 191, Turin
Palazzo della Prefettura (former State Secretariats) - Piazza Castello, Turin
State Archives (former Court Archives) Via Verdi / Via Luzio , Turin

Castello di Govone - Piazza Roma 1, Govone (CN)
The Royal Palace was built in 1646, when the Royal Lady Maria Cristina, wife of Vittorio Amedeo I, decided to replace the old Bishop's Palace, where Emanuele Filiberto had lived when he moved the capital of its state from Chambéry to Turin (1562), with a new building.
The façade of the new palace was built by Carlo Morello according to a design by Amedeo di Castellamonte in 1658. The hall leads on the right to the monumental main stairs.
The Royal Palace of Turin can be considered a mixture of different and subsequent buildings, all of them internally conneted and where the most important artists worked according to the styles of the seventeenth century, the rococo up to the Neoclassic trends.
The Palace houses the Royal Library and the Royal Armoury, whose entrance is under the arcades of the Prefecture (Piazza Castello 191). Both of them were created by Carlo Alberto and contain extraordinary collections.
This beautiful palace, constructed by the architect Guarino Guarino (1679-1684), is easy to find in the historical centre of Torino. The baroque facade is elaborated and worth studying closely. In this building Carlo Alberto and Vittore Emmanuele II was born, as the memory shield in front of the building tells.
Today Palazzo Carignano houses "Il museo Nazionale del Risorgimento Italiano."
Previously on display at Stupinigi was Il Male, an art exhibit covering all things bad. From portraits of evil popes to pictures painted from real human blood, it is creepy, icky and utterly fascinating. Never before have I seen so many pictures of Battista's head! Note the hanging children outside the palace!
See my other tip on Stupinigi for bus directions.
Regular admission was a bit steep at €9 (but worth it), this museum participates in the Abbondamente Piedmonte Museum Card program.
Turin, being the capital of Piedmont, houses the royal residence of the House of Savoys of the Kingdom of Sardenia until the unification of Italy in 1860's. The Palazzo Real is but, nowadays, a showcase of the richness and grandeur of the Savoys. The collections are quite impressive, all originals in display.
The first and second floors houses the rooms of the nobles while the grand floor, the king and queen's apartments are found.
Ticket Costs:
First Floor of the Nobles: €6.50
Second Floor of the Nobles: €4.00
Queen's Apartment: €4.00
King's Apartment: €4.00
Persons below 18 and over 65 years old, entrance is free. Reduced prices are also available for students between 18-25 years old. Valid IDs are necessary.

I am SO glad that you posted this recipe Shadows, it is truly excellent! Pumpkin, cheese, creme fraiche and good butter - what a classic combination! I added a bit more than the amount of cheese stated - I ALWAYS do as I am a cheese fiend!!! Excellent recipe, I am only sorry that the photo was not up to scratch - bad light and in a hurry to eat it were the proplems there! I used some pre-cooked (roasted) frozen pumpkin, Spicy Roast Pumpkin, with great success. You should try this, it would work with Stilton or any other robust cheese too! Thanks. FT:-)

Guess what? I don't like feeling scared.
I don't like fast speeds, surprises, spiders or spooky contorted bodies. Not even on Halloween, yet I know there are so many people who thrive on that.
When adrenalin pumps through my body when I am scared, I don't feel a rush like most people. For me, I think it's more a pump of "oh my gawd I am dying," a flood that causes me to sit in a corner and cry. Not exactly the best thing if I am trying to survive, but at least I know my limitations, right?
For those of you who love to be slightly freaked out and especially so on Halloween, you can always count on our animals and insects to give you a jump of scared. I found a few pictures that can help get you into the spirit for this year's Halloween festivities.

GNS3 – How to build an Internet LabPosted by Josh on Wed 16 Jan 2008
Categories: Cisco , Cisco Routers , Dynamips , GNS3 - [83] Comments
This tutorial will help you build a basic Internet lab using GNS3 as a WAN simulator. It will be referenced by future tutorials such as how to configure GRE/IPSec VPNs, how to configure a DMVPN (Dynamic Multipoint VPN) and QOS.
The basic steps for building an internet lab with gns3 is to place 4 routers on the lab with one in the middle.
This router represents the internet. Now, connect the other three routers to the Internet with serial cables. Then configure the ISP router 's serial interfaces with IP addresses that will be used to connect to the other routers. At this point, we will not be configuring the other routers.

Personally, I am not sure exactly what you will need, but I have found that 4GB RAM and a dual-processor or dual-core processor are needed at a minimum (for vmware and gns3 running at the same time)
If you plan on using Cisco Call Manager in VMWare. Stay away from AMD processors. CUCM will not install in VMWare if you have an AMD host processor.
I have not had great luck with external hypervisors. If you are building a huge lab, they are needed. But then again, I haven't spent lots of time trying to make them work for me. Most of my labs are only 4-5 routers.
Also, use Linux as your host. Dynamips on windows uses cygwin (linux emulation) and it just does not work as well. If you need windows … run a windows virtual machine in vmware.
I have been working on a tutorial series for a voice lab using gns3 and vmware. Although it has a voice slant, it is still good information for building any cisco lab using vmware and gns3.
Hope that answers your questions.

You will need to setup a vpn on your home router to access your pc or you can use a remote access service (logmein.com) to access your lab from the internet.

I am using gns3 in a vmware Win XP environment. When I want to configure a router using right-click on it and Console option (after loading an IOS image and starting it) a window appears but nothing more except for the first text line. It just hangs there.
Am I missing something or what?
