Recent reviews
Excellent 4.4 /5 from 1395 reviews
Great location, easy walk to the landmarks and down town. Beds were very comfortable, and the rooms were spacious. Overall a great place to stay!
literally steps from the berlin hbf train tracks. we were on the 3rd floor but it was quiet throughout the day and night. room was extremely clean and tidy. HOWEVER THE WIFI WAS UNUSABLE. I would not have stayed at this location if I knew the WiFi was that bad.
It's a new hotel so the conditions of the building are perfect... however the service it is not as good as expected. When checking in I was informed that the room was not ready since it was early, however they offered a room that was more expensive, but it was ready, so I accepted to pay the difference. The room it was not as ample, so I requested a bigger room. The person in the reception said that to have a bigger room I needed to take their luxury room. Since I was in a good mood I accepted to pay another increase in the rate of the room. He said and I quote: "the room is not ready now, but when you come back later the room will be ready and you can change rooms". I returned to the hotel few hours later and when I requested my new room they said that there was no room available since it was a weekend. I requested to talk with the manager and I explained that I was promised another room, but the manager said that she overheard my previous conversation with the person in the reception and he "never promised a new room" and made the excuse that "since English was not their mother thong" they didn't mean that I will have a new room. When I told them that it was not acceptable she said :"What do you want me to do?" instead of being proactive and to offer a compensation. The rest of the stay was OK.
Right next to train station which was great for our overnight stay in Berlin. The hotel is new and very nice but the mattress was horrible and therefore the bed was not comfortable.
The stay was fine but I booked online and they charged me again at the hotel. I explained it in the evening and that lady said she would make sure they would take it off after telling me for 20 minutes there was no second charge. My credit card said otherwise. I mentioned it again at check out and again they told me no second charge was made. After 5 minutes she found that there was two charges. Still waiting to see if the charge will be removed :/ I was not impressed
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

2008 Toyota sienna righ fan alwasy running....
2008 Toyota sienna the right side fan runs as soon as key is in first position...I have full wiring diagrams and have replaced and switched around all the related the relays. I have replaced the fan control module twice (used), I have replaced the main ECU twice (both used ebay's but odds are they are not the problem). I know both fans work if hotwired so they are not the issue. I have omed out related wires and circuits and chased back the wiring diagrams. I have tested the temp control unit and it works fine. I am stumped at this point. As a side note the AC is also not working and has a blinking light. I replaced the main AC relay with a new one, a known common problem on these cars. the AC gets cold if I "hotwire" the relay to always stay on but AC gauges shows rising pressure if i make it stay on all the time. AC gauges show normal expected pressures. First trying to figure out why just one fan runs all the time...second looking to solve the AC issues but not sure if they are related. Have been fixing cars for over 15 years and NEVER had to go to a shop for anything....just about there on this one....
1 Answer
Sorry a few other pieces of info about my post above....every once in a while the car can be totally cold, and the fan will kick on. I have an OBC scanner and the temp shows normal temps and goes up and down as expected. The relay that runs the fan, as well as several others have all been replaced or moved around to test. What else besides ECU, Fan Control Module, Temp sensor, or relays tells the fan to kick on....

text: Hi, need some help please! I was left a substantial amount of money form a paternal grandparent several years ago of approx $130,000 (2009). I was in a committed ( de facto) relationship at the time and several months later (early 2010) we purchased a house together. I was not on the deed or loan as my credit rating was shot. We had a joint bank account together, which she later took my name off. We used approx $85,000 of my inheritance money towards the house, therefore taking out a smaller loan. Approx 6-8 months after purchasing the property we broke up ( separation). I moved out several months later and the house is currently vacant (as she is living in Victoria), the mortgage is being paid by her (and her father). The equity in the house (at this time) is approx $200,000. I don't want half of it, just the $85,000 that was originally given to me that I put into the property. I have been trying to make contact with her to sort the situation out, however she refuses to engage in any discussion for the last year. 1 - Can I get the money back? 2 - How long should I be waiting before making it a legal matter? Thanks in advance for any and all assistance!!

I started 2014 tipping the scales at almost 200 lbs. That was the result of too many croissants and three-in-one coffees over the many months of the previous year, compounded by the many feasts of Christmas towards its end. I was on maintenance medicine for hypertension and any little physical exertion would send me wheezing for breath. On top of that, I was getting sick every month with cough and colds.
I'm starting 2015 at 160 lbs., give or take a pound. If there was ever a New Year's resolution that I am proud to have kept, it would be this one. Over the course of several months last year, I shed almost 40 lbs. and I've managed to keep it off. Sometime in the middle of the year, the doctor took me off my maintenance medication because my blood pressure had gotten too low. While I'm not Olympic quality, I can now do ten to fifteen laps in our community swimming pool without pausing. I feel great!
I wish I could say there was a magic pill that I took to trim down to where I am now. I'm sure that would be worth a lot of money. But really, there isn't. At the end of the day, it came down to diet and exercise and what was essentially a lifestyle change.
A visit to a dietitian in January last year kicked off my quest. The doctor took me through all the food combinations -- what to eat, what to avoid -- and as usual it was getting all complicated and daunting. But at the end, she summed it up to a neat guideline. "Take your usual 9-inch dinner plate," she said. "Half of that should be vegetables, one fourth meat, and one fourth carbs." Okay, that seemed easy to follow...in theory. In practice? I didn't like vegetables very much.
A few days later I was invited to dinner at Vikings, the massive eat-all-you-can buffet franchise. That would have scuttled the project before it could even begin but I managed to turn that almost-disaster to an advantage. "The food is paid for, whether I eat a lot or eat a little," I reasoned, "so it doesn't matter what I get." That night I turned away from the roast beef, Peking duck, chicken cordon bleu, bulgogi, pizza, and other gastronomical temptations and ate only...salad.
It seems stupid to pay P1,200 for a buffet meal and eat nothing but lettuce and tomatoes with a side of cheese and crackers, but as I said, the dinner wasn't coming out of my pocket. Somehow that sacrifice turned out to be a transformational moment. Salad, I realized, wasn't so bad. In fact, with the right dressing, it could be delicious!
And really, that was the whole beginning. The next visit to the grocery, I went, for the first time in my life, to the produce section and picked out lettuce leaves for myself. I also got tomatoes and cucumber and experimented with a couple of types of dressing. The following day, I started preparing my own salad.
Along the way, I discovered a really surprising thing about vegetables in my diet: I was getting hungry less. It's very strange, counterintuitive even, but I found out that if I ate only rice with my meal, I would get hungry again after an hour. If I ate my meal with salad, I could go on for two to three hours before I felt hungry again.
Eventually, it came to a point where I could go without rice at all, only fresh vegetables for my meals! That's the way I am now. On the rare occasions that I do take rice, I go for at most half a cup only. This, I think, accounts for the biggest factor in my weight loss.

Hello, my husband and I will be travelling to Nice in September for our honeymoon and are looking to rent an apartment for the week. Right now we've narrowed down our choices to three apartments and I was wondering if anyone would mind giving me input on their locations?
As it is our first visit to Nice, we'd like to be within decent walking distance to the old town, the sea, and the main train station, and would also like good access to restaurants/boulangeries/market or groceries. Am I looking in the right neighbourhood, or should I be looking in the old town?
Thanks very much in advance for your advice.

I looked at all three quickly,, think # 2 on Place Massena is the best location by far for what you want.
The train station would be a walk for me but a quick bus ride.
The third one only has a murphy bed or convertibles which can be fine or uncomfortable and a hassle. I like having a closed off sleeping area where I can leave things out if I want.

Having been to Nice several times and also planned my stepsons honeymoon there a couple of years ago, I would suggest staying in the Old Town. It is centrally located...very close to the beach and transportation ( you can take the bus for one Euro to Villefranche, St Paul de Vence, etc) and has so much charm. If possible, I would really recommend that area and then a secondary choice would be the Carre D'or neighborhood.

Hi- I came across your post as I am doing a search for an apartment in Nice. Have you made your selection yet? I like them all. For two people I think I prefer the one in Nice Etoile because of the view and the great terrace. We are also from Ottawa and love Nice. If we do go it will be in October. We have rented apartments in Nice before and think it would be a wonderful destination for a honeymoon.
Report Abuse
Place Massena and Jean Medicins are in a very busy area so keep that in mind. We rented east of there
and still could walk everywhere. Have you looked at the agency Nice Pebbles?
We used Go Nice and it was OK, not too crisp on details though.
Report Abuse
Ottawagirl - did you rent one of these apartments in Nice? We are looking for an apartment for next spring - these all look nice and just wondered if you stayed in one of them.

The nice man in the big brown truck just brought me my DT880 Premiums and man am I in love. Carrie Underwood is magic, jazz is incredible, everything is just .... wow. I had concerns about the bass but these are perfect for me. I'm not a basshead at all and the bass in these is present and perfect -- just what I was looking for. The highs are a bit hot but after a bit of burn in I think they will probably tame a bit. Until then, I can compensate with the treble control on my amp.
Just wanted to announce my delight. Another happy DT880 owner joining the ranks :-)
Very nice :D, I was told today that they Beyer Pads... are part of the "house sound" ? Either way I upgraded to the HE 4 my self a while back, but still use Beyer Pads on my he 4 ^^, point being the DT 880 is a super great headphone :D and those pads are so comfy! Do enjoy it
Did I post my pics of my three banna hangers?
The D2k one now has a sock on it, since it was pushing again'st the headband :/ but yea buy a banaaa Hnager for 5$ get your self some kind of cloth to wrap around it, hold your cloth in place with rubber bands then throw a sock over it, it can look nice if u have the right colored sock, but it's cheap and it works great my HE 4 sit's on a franken hangar

Wicked Lasers S3 Arctic Spyder III 1 Watt Blue Laser
Everyone has a cool laser memory. If you are my age the most common is from the 1985 movie starring Val Kilmer titled Real Genius. One movie that has always stuck out in my mind was the 1997 film, Air Force One, where a marine uses a small hand held laser to melt the plastic covering to expose a wire. If you deal with electronics for a living, how handy would a tool like that be? Whether you want to admit it or not, chances are you have an attraction to lasers.
Wicked Lasers, long known for their ultra-powerful, compact and expensive lasers made mainstream news a few weeks ago by advertising the world's most powerful hand held laser. As if making a 1 watt laser wasn't enough to grab headlines, the media coverage soon turned into a frenzy when George Lucas thought the new Wicked Lasers S3 Arctic looked a little too much like the famous Light Sabers from Star Wars.
Today we are going to thumb our nose at George for his arrogance, check out the new Arctic 1 watt blue laser and see if we can burn some stuff!
Specifications, Pricing and Availability
Before we can get started setting things on fire, let's take a look at the specs and then get into some safety tips that will keep you from seeing blue for two days.
The S3 Series is the world's first 1 watt consumer laser. The beam emitted is a deep shade of cobalt blue and as you will see later in this article, it can be seen a long way from the source. Wicked is claiming a battery life of 120 minutes before charging is needed and luckily for us the S3 comes with a handy charger, so you will have not be cycling through double A batteries every 15 minutes.
Just as impressive as the laser beam is the housing it comes from. Wicked Lasers came up with an aluminum case that not only looks military grade, but it is truly military grade. Built into the lasers housing is a new feature that Wicked is calling a Smart Switch. This will keep your laser safe from accidental discharge if it were to fall into the wrong hands.
At the launch Wicked Lasers advertised the S3 Arctic with a 199 USD price point, but the demand was so great that they needed to raise the price to 299 USD. It also might have been the money needed to pay all of those lawyers to fight the Lucas lawyers, but either way it went, you are going to have to shell out 299 Dollars to get the world's more powerful handheld laser.

Quite a few times they are all full.
I think people who disabilities actually prefer the smaller shops. Less walking - less busy so for them it is easier than a larger centre.
So they may prefer these places even though 90% of the general public do not go there.
gingermillie (12-02-2016),LoveLivesHere (12-02-2016),MissMuppet (12-02-2016)
I'm old enough to remember the Seinfeld episode where George parked in a disabled spot and his car was destroyed by angry citizens.
So I don't ever.

HollyGolightly81 (12-02-2016),MissMuppet (12-02-2016),Sonja (12-02-2016)
And just to clarify it's just this particular shop that we happened to park there. Not other ones that are normally busier and have cars in the disabled spot.
It's not always about the distance to the shops and this is something that gets referenced a lot but it's not the biggest issue for those with wheelchairs. Cars that are designed for wheelchairs actually need the wider spaces to get the chairs out - either with ramps or a hydraulic hoist system - my sisters chair could go faster than I walked, distance wasn't an issue, we needed the space.

Chinese search engine Baidu was down for a bit last week, and they're blaming it on blocked access due to hackers. Users were instead sent to a site where the group "Iranian Cyber Army" was claiming responsibility. Despite the name, there's no evidence the group has actual ties based in Iran.
Now, Baidu is suing U.S.-based domain name registry, Register.com in the matter. Register.com, of course, says the suit has no merit.
The timing is curious. The suit comes a week after Google threatened to pull out of China if it could not serve up uncensored search results. They also said the GMail accounts of human rights activists were being hacked, and implied that the hacks were conducted by the Chinese government.
Now, we have a Chinese search engine accusing a U.S. company of negligence that lead to hacking. Additionally, Baidu has lost two key executives in past weeks – their CTO and their COO.
Maybe something fishy is going on. Maybe it's completely coincidental. The China v U.S. wars are heating up and I'm not sure anyone comes out a winner.

Published byKatherine Maloney Modified over 2 years ago
Oxford Brookes Conference on Graduate Employability: Oxford: 16/06/09 Learning about me as well as the subject: enhancing employability through critical reflective learning John Buswell University of Gloucestershire
Learning to learn is the educational paradigm for the twenty-first century (Ruth Deakin Crick 2004) You cannot teach a man anything; you can only help him find it within himself (Galileo) But what does it mean and how do we do it (if we think it is important)?
Outline of session Student-centred learning- the why and wherefore Metalearning and self-awareness A structured, progressive and supported process The use of critical storytelling and learning inventories Their impact
Why is student-centred learning so important for employability? We are preparing students for a world of increasing uncertainty; Increasingly electronic; Knowledge society; Learning in the 21 st century requires active, autonomous, flexible and lifelong learners; Increased emphasis on transdisciplinary knowledge and competences?;
Changing HE context Numbers, diversity, AWP Outcomes-based approaches Dearing vision The opportunities provided by active learning and reflective thinking The centrality of reflective learning to PDP Potential to transform the HE curriculum by placing the student at the centre and moving away from content-based models (Broadfoot 2006) What does this mean? Do you agree with it? Links between PDP and employability The Leitch Report
The Leitch Report (December 2006 ) Even if the UK were to reach all of its skills targets for 2010, it would still be trailing behind other key competitors in the knowledge economy Complex based knowledge roles forecast to be 45% of workforce by 2014 Challenging targets for 2020, especially in higher order skills
Consequent importance of developing self-reliant, independent and collaborative learners who know and understand themselves; and are prepared for the increasing complexities of employability and citizenship; Transferability In our rapidly changing world, the ability to learn quickly, to be flexible, to be comfortable with newness, is a core skill. It might even be the most important (Parker and Stone 2003:19) This helps in presenting a clear and positive image to employers and others
at the end of the day, it is the graduates of our universities and colleges who will need to have the clearest idea of their skills, capabilities and achievements, both in order to sell themselves to employers and academic selectors and to manage their own careers in increasingly less supported working environments (Burgess 2005) The key lies in self-awareness and metalearning
Metalearning Bourner points out that developing students capacity for reflective learning is part of developing their capacity to learn how to learn (Bourner 2003:267) Employers are not interested in seeing extensive documented outcomes, but they do wish to see for themselves how candidates think and behave in new situations (Edwards 2001:8)
( University of Gloucestershire Metalearning Awareness and control of ones own learning How?
Self-empowerment and autonomy Self-awareness and strategic awareness Ownership – self-regulated learning Capacity for lifelong learning Reflective practice and reflective learning, especially learning from experiences
Reflective thinking experience is not quite the same thing as learning from experience (Moon 2004:105) Reflective learning is not what happens to a student; it is what the student does with what has happened (Bourner 2003:4) And it requires us to mediate and create the appropriate learning environment
metalearning capacity requires a skill in learning that is quite different from, and superordinate to, the acquisition of complementary skills (such as how to take notes, use the library and so on (Meyer and Shanahan 2004:444) i.e. skills in learning as well as skills for learning

Metalearning through Constructivist and socio-constructivist approaches to learning; and An integrated and progressive approach to PDP, incorporating: A model of progression in metalearning; The tools and techniques of reflective writing (including recording and planning); Methods of peer support and mentoring; Learning inventories/self-assessment tools ELLI ECI-U (Emotional Competence Inventory-University Edition
Reflective writing (but critically reflective ) Learning agreements/diaries/logs/journals R cards Unsent letters Portraits Critical incidents Critical storytelling – see handout
1. Using Stories to reflect on placement experiences … Creating social environments to encourage reflective thinking and peer support Developing techniques for encouraging reflective writing and peer support Creating a placement story which includes developing skills in reflective writing, listening and questioning techniques
when we tell stories and process them, using reflective dialogue, we create the possibility for change in ourselves and others. Our capacity to express ourselves through narrative forms not only enables us to reshape, reassess and reconstruct particular events, it allows us to learn from discussing our experiences with individuals who raise alternative views, suggest imaginative possibilities and ask stimulating questions. (McDrury and Alterio 2003:38)
2. The use of learning inventories Self-assessment Concepts of learning Provides language with which to understand, evaluate and articulate learning and capabilities They are an important element of learning to learn
ELLI (Effective Lifelong Learning Inventory) Based on learning power Learners are: All different Constantly learning Able to change to become better learners Able to reflect on their learning Motivated to be better learners
ELLI contains seven dimensions of learning power Positive pole Negative pole Changing and learning Being stuck Meaning making Data accumulation Critical curiosity Passivity Creativity Rule bound Learning relationships Isolation Strategic awareness Robotic ResilienceDependent
ELLI measures learning power The qualities and dispositions that enable students to learn and go on learning throughout life A research project in schools in 2002 led by Professors Patricia Broadfoot and Guy Claxton (University of Bristol) Contains an online questionnaire (ELOISE)
ELLI contains an online survey that: Takes approximately 20 minutes for each student to fill in Comprises 97 statements Produces individual profiles about each student s learning power Produces class profiles to show how groups of students view themselves as learners
ELLI can : Identify dimensions of learning to work on with students Focus students attention on learning Give them am immediate profile and supportive material Help students think about how to improve learning Help to provide students with a language with which to understand and articulate their learning Be a learning experience in itself
Individual Profiles can show: how each student feels about learning who are the fragile learners which students could achieve much better if they worked on one or two aspects of learning
Example 1
Example 2
2. ESCI-U (Emotional and Social Competency Inventory- University Edition Applied to learning from 12 month placement and other experiences; Focuses on self-awareness; social-awareness; self-management; relationship management; and cognitive competencies 70 statements in paper-based questionnaire plus opportunity for feedback questionnaire from someone who knows the student well Supported by a work book explaining each competency and containing sections for reflective writing
The growing importance of EI to employability EI is essential for Self-management; Developing others; Facilitating relationships between others; and Management of our relationship with others (Sparrow & Knight 2006)
OK Corrall: Life Positions (Sparrow & Knight 2006: 40) I m NOT OK I m OK I-U+ I+U+ You re OK You re NOT OK Stuck Critical I-U- I+U- Submissive EI
Student feedback on both inventories A little mixed on ELLI but overwhelmingly positive on the ESCI-U Perhaps influenced by the stage of the student s progression in their degree However, there was a correlation between the perception of ELLI and the academic attainment of students in one group
Student feedback and student assessments suggested that their ability to learn from reflecting critically on their experiences was enhanced by the use of learning inventories, particularly in the following ways: Identifying and analysing strengths and weaknesses; Seeing themselves in a different light; Increased self-identity; Greater awareness of how others viewed them; A trigger for critical reflection (rather than simply descriptive reflection) and strategic awareness; How to learn better
Conclusions Learning about me as well as the subject (particularly when it is contextual knowledge and involves applying subject theory) can be effective and critical (including the highest order cognitive skills and metacognition) PDP is, I believe, helping to transform the higher education programme from one that is still primarily geared to the transmission of knowledge to one where self-identity is also important. When the specialist knowledge we acquire through a higher education becomes redundant, all we are left with is our capacity to keep learning. This has to be the key skill for life which higher education equips us with and it is the one that PDP serves (Jackson 2005)

Brilliant resort for first times skiers and children. We booked this resort through Cystal ski and we were not disappointed. We wanted somewhere that would be easy to get around with a 3 and 7 year old and would have plenty to do part from the skiing as we weren't sure how our 3 year old would take to skiing....
We booked one week at the Maston Aitio cabins , which I have already reviewed . We do not ski but we booked our holiday with Crystal ski .
We went with the sole intention of walking , which we did every day . There is a huge network of cross country ski tracks and walking tracks where you can...
Beautiful quiet slopes, picturesque views. No queues for the lifts so plenty of time on the slopes. Great accommodation, located right next to the slopes so you can ski back to your door,
After visiting Levi last year we were slightly dissapointed by the length of the slopes in comparison but the slopes are great for beginners wide slopes with very fiew people on them but there are plenty of nice reds and blacks fr those more advanced skiiers with plenty of lifts and bars to warm up at. We havent taken any...
Ruka is a small village catering for downhill skiing, but not so well resourced as a centre for cross country skiing. There are plenty of good tracks, but no clear maps to make following them easy. Even the information centre was not helpful in helping you plan your routes. There were a couple of good restaurants and bars, but Ruka...
The resort is very pretty with very good snow and lovely views from the top. The slopes looked fantastic and were well kept by the groomers. Lots for children to do including a ski through reindeer area where you can feed them. Lots of slope side campfire areas and a good lift network. If you are an advanced skier then...
The pistes were perfectly maintained, signed and groomed, no nasty lumps, bumps or surprises for the nervous skier and plenty to offer the more advanced skiers. Pistes not overcrowded, sometimes had the whole slope to ourselves. Lifts were well maintained and not too slow. Never found any lift queues.
Ruka is a small ski resort with a 'fjell' rather than a mountain. It is a very pretty place with masses to do. Not the most challenging for experienced skiers but plenty of small slopes which aren't busy and can be accessed from accomodation's door (ski locker outside). Snowmobile into the forest and a fine Northern Lights display whilst on...
What a place ! An absolute magical winter wonderland ! We stayed for 5 nights in Ruka Suites. Apartments were great and right in the heart of all the activities. We saw the Northern lights twice . Huskey sleigh ride is amazing as was the snow Mibile Safari. We booked a 1 hour 40 mins ski school for me and...
Hi Jadex123!
So happy that you enjoyed your Holiday at Ruka. Hote to see you again soon!
With best regards Silja/Ski-Inn reception
If you don't want to ski, there is not much else you can do unless you want to spend hundreds of £s on the tourist trips. We went for a week and got roughly 3 hours 'sunlight' a day. This was fine for us as the slopes are floodlit and we skied every day for at least 5 hours. Apart...
Dear Queen-star,
Sad to hear that you weren't 100% happy for your Holiday. Maybe you want to come again on the summer time when, we have lots of daylight (endless nights and so) and you can be outside with good weather in the nature.
Best regards,
Silja/Ski-Inn reception

We plan to arrive via Rovaniemi. What is the easiest way to reach Ruka?
We are a family of 4 with luggages packed for winter so we are not keen to do too many transfers.
Do you know of any taxi company that do transfer?
Planning on visiting ruka next February. Can anyone tell where I should fly to from England please? I've seen flights to Helsinki but didn't know if there was a closer airport? Also what are the transfer times from airport to ruka? Thank you
Me and my partner with a 5 year old have chosen to visit lapland. Ruka looks the best so we are going to choose there we are planning on visiting late January and just wondered of any tips. We are booking through Crystal and they have excursions we can add at time of booking. Like snow mobile, santa etc is it best to get them at time of booking or in resort? also is everything still going on after xmas? we are not really going for the skiing but said we may try it :) there is a 241 offer at crystals for lift pass but wondered do we need one? did you get one ? any info would be appreciated and we are thinking of staying Ruka cabins Thanks Emily
Hi booked to come to Ruka over Christmas and is it best to book excursions fore travelling through the tour operator or wait to we get to the resort.

The Calgary Police Service (CPS) took a man into custody Wednesday night. They believe he may have been involved in Taliyah Leigh Marsman's disappearance.
In a release early Thursday morning, police also confirmed they have deployed resources to search a rural area east of Chestermere for evidence in relation to the case.
An Amber Alert was issued for Marsman just after 1:40 a.m. Tuesday, after her mother Sara Baillie was found dead in their basement suite in Panorama the day before.
The man taken into custody is believed to have been driving a grey sedan in the Panorama community, and was seen driving close to where Sara Baillie's car had been recovered.
The Amber Alert for Marsman remains in place. Police will update with more information later Thursday.

The intermingling of larval functional neurons with adult-specific neurons during metamorphosis contributes to the development of the adult Drosophila brain. To better understand this process, we characterized the development of a dorsal cluster (DC) of Atonal-positive neurons that are born at early larval stages but do not undergo extensive morphogenesis… (More)
BACKGROUND Many membrane proteins, including Drosophila Dscam, are enriched in dendrites or axons within neurons. However, little is known about how the differential distribution is established and maintained. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we investigated the mechanisms underlying the dendritic targeting of Dscam[TM1]. Through forward genetic mosaic… (More)

Mini Gingerbread Houses
Make a miniature gingerbread village for a quick-and-easy take on the holiday classic.
Mini Gingerbread Houses
Gingerbread houses are as fun to make as they are to eat but sometimes, assembling cookie castles is as difficult as building their brick-and-mortar counterparts. Assemble this village of houses for a quick-and-easy version of the classic. They are perfect for your holiday party or cookie swap. Follow this step-by-step to create your own Mini Gingerbread Houses. For the ingredient list, go to the Mini Gingerbread Houses recipe.
Make a Template for Cutting the Houses
Because these are so little and have no roof, they require only two different pieces. The side piece is 2 by 2 inches and the front and back pieces of the house are 2 by 2 inches with a 1/2-inch-tall peak. You can certainly make them larger, but this is a great size to work with and eat.
Make the Dough + Roll It Out
To make the gingerbread cookie dough: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ginger, cinnamon and clove. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes on medium-high speed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each and scraping the sides of the bowl. Mix in the molasses on low speed until well blended. Add the flour all at once and mix on low speed just until it all comes together. Scrape down the bowl and turn the speed to medium; beat for 15 seconds. Wrap the gingerbread dough in plastic and refrigerate until set up, at least an hour. Prepare the dough to make the cookie house pieces: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment. Roll out the chilled dough onto a well-floured surface to 1/8-inch thick.
Make the Cookie House Pieces
Using your templates, cut out two sides and two front-and-back pieces for each house. (You can freeze any remaining dough or use it to make stained-glass-window cookies.) [*Add link to blog post + stained glass cookies.] You may find a pastry wheel and a brand-new X-acto knife are the best tools for getting a clean edge.
Prep for Baking
10 Minutes in the Oven
Bake for 5 minutes then rotate the cookie sheets in the oven front to back and top to bottom. Bake for an additional 3 to 5 minutes. Be very careful not to over bake, since the cookies are already so dark it can be hard to tell when they are done. The tops will be slightly dull when they are done. Allow the cookies to cool completely before assembling and decorating. They can be baked the day before.
To Make the Ganache
Over a double boiler gently whisk the chocolate, cream, butter and rum until smooth.
Cool Down
Start Assembling the Houses
Once the ganache is set, fill a small parchment pastry bag with a small amount of ganache and cut a tiny hole on the tip. Line a baking sheet with parchment and use the ganache as glue to hold the house in place as you build it. Start by putting four small dots of ganache 2 by 2 inches apart, which will become the corners of your house.
Squeeze a line of ganache along one edge of the side pieces of the house (the square pieces).
Join that side with one of the front- or back-of-the-house pieces (with the triangular roof) and stand them up on the dots you put down. Pipe a line of ganache along the outside edge of that seam.
Pipe ganache on another side piece and attach it to the front- or back-of-house piece, parallel to the other side piece.
Attach the final front- or back-of-house piece and you have a start to your village. Once they are all assembled, place them in the refrigerator to set the ganache.
Make the White Decorating Icing
In a bowl mix together the confectioners' sugar, milk, corn syrup and almond extract until smooth. It should be thin enough to pipe from a parchment piping bag but not so thin that it spreads and doesn't hold its design. If it is too thick, add more milk. If it is too thin, add more confectioners' sugar. Use the pastry bag to decorate your houses with a simple or ornate pattern. Let the icing set between each side by sticking them in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
Have Fun Decorating
Make each one a unique house just like in a real village of varied homes.
...or fill the houses with whipped cream and berries for a more sophisticated holiday dessert.

@Monkeyface with a Formosa MTO jacket from NMWA, I think.
It is good isn't it? Prob my fav MF look.
Eidos...I still kick myself for missing out on it. Stitch has one too.
Its an Eidos or a Formosa?
Thanks gents. Yes, it's an Eidos in the Tipo cut, and made from a lovely wool/silk mix. Keep an eye out for this winter's sales if you want one on the cheap, because I think they have a similar one for the A/W collection.
