Stayed here for a week. Perfect location and the apartment had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Every communication was answered very promptly and we even arranged for the keys to be collected locally and an earlier check in as we were arriving from the UK. Highly recommend the company and apartment. Thank you.
Fantastic view, Good bed, a little bit shabby but clean, perfect contact,
We had a great stay at his condo before our cruise. It was just as advertised and anything we needed was only a phone call away.
It was very clean when we arrived and the beds are very comfortable.
The condo is in a great location within walking distance to the CBD and Darling Harbour. We will defiantly be staying here again when we come back to Sydney.
Fabulous apartment, very spacious and clean, with a gorgeous view of the bridge and cityscape, lovely little touches by the host made us feel at home, very secure building and parking made all the difference I will definitely be booking this apartment again in the future
amazing views of sidney
Appartment is very good located and has space enough for 4 to 5 people (one bedroom for adults, the other bedroom rather for 2-3 kids). Great is tennis-court and pool on the rooftop with amazing few.
The price was rather high and for this, in our opinion all details shoud be perfect (like dishwashing machine must work correctly, all lights should work, no broken chairs).
Very nice spacious apartment with a fantastic view of Sydney. Great location. We really enjoyed our stay.
We stayed at the apartment in April 2015 (2 adults and 2 children) and found it to be excellent. Great location (handy to transport and also easy to walk into town and around), great facilities, spacious, very comfortable and very clean and tidy. The one negative was dealing with Peter and his office staff. When asking for clarification or assistance, they were very defensive and their general communication was not great. Once they sort that out, I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment as a great place to stay.
Apartment very well located, the whole town can be done on foot
The downside is that this is the same street is very busy and noisy at night.
The pool and rooftop jacuzzi its a real plus
Everything conforms to the description on the website (missing a few dishes when we are still 5)
I highly recommend
Appartement très bien situé, toute la ville peut se faire à pied
L'inconvénient c'est que de ce fait la rue est très passagère et bruyante même la nuit.
La piscine et le jacuzzi sur le toit son un réel plus
Tout est conforme à la description faite sur le site (manque un peu de vaisselle quand même lorsqu'on est 5)
Je recommande vivement
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

Will The War on Drugs Continue? 18 States Await Response From Federal Government
San Diego, United States (IBwire.com - November 26, 2012)
Legalize marijuana. That is what 18 states have now voted to do. The 40-year War on Drugs has been a massive failure, costing the US over $1 Trillion dollars, according to the Global Commission on Drug Policy. Senator Ron Paul has stated that the War on Drugs has violated states' and individuals' rights. And now, the 18 states that have legalized marijuana, await a response from the federal government. Success Council, an online group teaching how to prepare and profit from the next upcoming economic crisis, anticipates more prosecutions at the behest of the big lobby groups.
The Obama Administration has gone back and forth on the medical marijuana issue a few times, according to Rueters Online article released April 16, 2012. In one ear, Obama has 18 states speaking loudly and clearly: legalize marijuana. In the other ear, he has the law enforcement officers' salaries, the private prison lobby's full prison cells, and the big pharmaceuticals interest in a monopoly over a prescription pot pill. This fact is the topic of Success Council's newly released video series on the war on drugs.
So will Obama continue to prosecute despite earlier promise to the contrary?
In 2009, the Department of Justice issued a letter by David W. Ogden, then Attorney General, stating that as a "general matter, pursuit of [medical marijuana] should not focus federal resources in your States on individuals whose actions are in clear and unambiguous compliance with existing state laws[.]" This is known as the Ogden Memorandum, and is available on the Department of Justice's website.
Surprisingly, in 2011, many states received a letter from their local Assistant United States Attorneys (AUSAs) warning them that individuals who provide medical marijuana are in danger of prosecution. One such letter from Northern District of California's AUSA Melinda Haag stated:
"Accordingly, while the department does not focus its limited resources on seriously ill individuals who use marijuana as part of a medically recommended treatment regimen, in compliance with state law… we will enforce the CSA vigorously against individuals and organizations that participate in unlawful manufacturing and distribution activity involving marijuana, even if such activities are permitted under state law."
From the Ogden memorandum in 2009, Ms. Haag's warning letter leans further toward prosecution, despite the fact that these marijuana dispensaries are in complete compliance with state laws.
Fast forward to September 2012: Federal agents raiding medical marijuana dispensaries are on the rise. According to the Los Angeles Times, in September 2012, Federal Agents Officials sent warning letters to property owners and operators of an additional 67 dispensaries, giving them two weeks to comply with federal law, which bans medical marijuana.
To sum up the Obama Administration's actions: before the 2008 election, Obama promised not to prosecute people in states that had voted to legalize marijuana. In 2011, AUSAs sent warning letters out to states that legalized marijuana telling them they will be prosecuted. In 2012, Drug Enforcement Agents (DEA) raided and shut down the medical marijuana dispensaries. So, what's next? And the more critical question remains: why does Obama care?
According to the National Global Commission on Drugs, the United State's "War on Drugs" has been a complete and utter failure. And it was the Commission's recommendation to decriminalize drugs, like Portugal has very successfully done.
Sir Richard Branson, a Commission member stated, "If we could replicate what has happened in Portugal in the rest of the world, and in particular, America, you would get rid of three quarters of the prison population, save the country a ton of money, and save a lot of misery caused in families by throwing people in prison unnecessarily."
So why does the Obama administration keep pursuing the War On Drugs, and throwing good money after bad? Well, according to a new video released by Success Council, a group teaching people how to prepare, protect their assets, and profit from an economic crisis, the answer is: lobby groups. Three to be specific: 1) law enforcement officers who depend on the prosecution of these "crimes" in order to have a job; 2) private prisons who depend on keeping hundreds of thousands of US citizens incarcerated "for profit," and 3) big pharmaceutical companies who hope to have a monopoly on a newly released "pot pill."
According to Success Council, these three groups are the only reason Obama cares about prosecuting marijana providers in states where they have voted to legalize it.
Success Council issues free videos on YouTube weekly. It also offers a free online training on how to profit and prosper when the economic crisis hits.
About Success Council:
Success Council was founded in 2012, with the goal of teaching people how to protect their assets and profit from the greatest wealth transfer in history. Their mission is to: 1) Educate 10 million people through their online interactive training events; 2) Make 100,000 families wealthy through the information contained in their Members' Area; 3) Create 5,000 leaders armed with the knowledge, skills and resources based on the fundamentals of liberty; and the ultimate goal, is to 4) Create One Free Society.

Honestly, must it really have that damn fruity colored ball at the end? This thing is gonna fail hard...
Raijin1999 Mar 11, 10Is that ball even part of the control, or something in the background?
Daweii Mar 11, 10The ball is like a motion capture ball, it is needed it is what gives the controller perfect 1:1 mapping of everything you do with it. The ball has an LED in it and will change or light depending on the effect, for example Sony have used a shooter as an example when shooting the LED might flash a bright yellow to simulate a muzzle flash.
ruledbysecrecy Mar 11, 10The ball doesn't bother me at all, especially when you understand how much better it is because of it. It basically means that no matter the lighting of your room it's going to pick up the motion.

It's generally recommended to paint your house every 3-5 years to protect your siding, stucco, or shingles, as well as maintain a fresh looking exterior.
To prevent uneven drying from painting in direct sunlight, paint the north and west side of your home in the morning hours and switch to the south and east sides in the afternoon and evening.
The best time of year to paint your house is in the spring or fall when the temperatures are the most mild.

The present study examined the factors contributing to performance of a backward overhead medicine ball throw (B-MBT) across 2 types of athletes. Twenty male volleyball players (jump athletes) and 20 wrestlers (nonjump athletes) were evaluated on 4 measures of power, including B-MBT, chest medicine ball throw (C-MBT), countermovement vertical jump (CMJ), and power index (PI). The athletes also completed 3 measures of strength: a 1-repetition-maximum (1RM) bench press (BP), a 1RM leg press (LP), and combined BP + LP strength. Jump athletes demonstrated greater absolute scores for CMJ, C-MBT, and B-MBT (p < 0.05), whereas nonjump athletes demonstrated greater strength scores for BP and for BP + LP (p < 0.05). When performances were examined on a relative basis, jump athletes achieved superior scores for C-MBT (p < 0.05), whereas nonjump athletes had greater scores for BP, LP, and BP + LP (p < 0.05). For both groups, B-MBT had strong correlations with PI (r = 0.817 [jump] and 0.917 [nonjump]), whereas for C-MBT, only non-jump athletes demonstrated a strong correlation (r = 0.842). When expressed in relative terms, B-MBT was strongly correlated with C-MBT (r = 0.762 [jump] and 0.835 [nonjump]) and CMJ (r = 0.899 [jump] and 0.945 [nonjump]). Only non-jump athletes demonstrated strong correlations with strength for absolute LP (r = 0.801) and BP + LP (r = 0.810) strength. The interaction of upper- and lower-body strength and power in the performance of a B-MBT appears complex, with the contributing factors differing for athletes with divergent skill sets and performance demands.

"Task Force Prescribes Steps to Advance U.S. Interests in Russia"
New Report Underlines Why Americans Still Need to Care about Russia
Press Release
October 31, 2011
- How will Vladimir Putins return to the Kremlin impact American national interests?
- Can the U.S. work with Russia to reduce risks that the rise of China disrupts the global order?
- Should the U.S. allow Georgia to block Russias entry into the World Trade Organization?
- How can the U.S. engage Russia to reach further cuts in nuclear arsenals and reduce the global threat of nuclear terrorism?
These are just some of the thorny policy questions tackled in a new report by the Task Force on Russia and U.S. National Interests, to be released in Washington and Cambridge, Massachusetts, on Oct. 31, 2011, by a group of business leaders and former military officers, senior government officials and diplomats.
The task force report assesses Russia from the perspective of American national interests and offers prescriptions for coherent, realistic management of the U.S.-Russia relationship as the two nations approach the 20th anniversary of the collapse of the Soviet Union on Dec. 25, 1991.
The study also makes the case that Russia remains one of the handful of countries in the world that can deeply affect American economic and security interests, demanding constant U.S. attention. The report argues that Vladimir Putins decision to return to the Kremlin as Russias president next year will make maintaining focus, care, and determination even more challenging for American policymakers.
While recognizing that the Obama Administrations reset policy has led to significant improvements in U.S.-Russia relations, the task force report warns that relations remain fragile -- and that an undertow of mutual distrust is more at fault than specific disputes.
This suspicion of one anothers motives may in fact be a greater obstacle to cooperation than sometimes divergent national interests and values, the executive summary says.
It concludes that a sustainable cooperative relationship that protects U.S. interests will require American policymakers to move forward without illusions regarding either Moscows sometimes neo-imperial ambitions, or the pace of democratic change in Russia.
The task force was co-chaired by Graham Allison, director of Harvard Kennedy Schools Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, and Robert D. Blackwill, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations and former U.S. ambassador to India. The project director was Dimitri K. Simes, president of the Center for the National Interest. The Centers executive director, Paul J. Saunders, served as editor for the report.
The report offers dozens of specific policy prescriptions on key issues that shape the relationship: Nuclear weapons and proliferation; arms control; energy security; fighting terrorism; trade and investment; and democratic values.
These include:
- The U.S. should engage Russia to develop a joint roadmap for security of nuclear weapons, weapons-grade plutonium and highly enriched uranium everywhere in the world.
- The U.S. also should engage Russia to get the world to agree to halt all new HEU enrichment and plutonium reprocessing.
- The U.S. and Russia should rapidly agree on Russias WTO accession.
- The U.S. should accept that Russian democracy will evolve in its own forms and will occur gradually.
- The U.S. should press for human rights conditions clearly and firmly, without a patronizing tone.
The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and the Center for the National Interest co-sponsored the Task Force. You can find more background on U.S.-Russia relations at www.belfercenter.org or www.cftni.org. The authors are available for interviews via the contacts below.
