Hello, I can only recommend this apartment. Everything was clean and the apartment was just as described. Ideally, the public transport right outside the door is the metro station and walking distance to Alexanderplatz is only a few minutes. Greetings Christoph
ich kann diese Wohnung nur empfehlen. Alles war sauber und die Wohnung war so wie beschrieben. Ideal ist die Verkehrsanbindung, direkt vor der Tür ist die U-Bahn Station und zu Fuß zum Alexanderplatz sind es nur ein paar Minuten.
Well equipped apartment and nice helpful hosts. Every time again!
Gut ausgestattete Wohnung und nette hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Jederzeit wieder!
We had a lovely week in Berlin. The booking, billing, and the keys of the apartment were uncomplicated. Contact with the team was friendly and also easily. The location of the apartment, as well as their equipment is perfect. The apartment is very clean and tidy. As it is, however, too noisy in an apartment block. We can absolutely recommend the apartment, because there we have felt ourselves very well!

Die Lage der Wohnung, wie auch deren Ausstattung ist perfekt. Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und ordentlich. Da sie in einem Plattenbau ist, allerdings auch hellhörig. Wir können die Wohnung unbedingt empfehlen, da wir uns dort sehr wohlgefühlt haben!
The apartment is very basic but everything was ok and it's very close to the tube. Thank you for hosting us.
A nice welcome and a great apartment. At this price and still close to the center. Unbeatable! I would have no hesitation to book this apartment again! THANK YOU :-)
Ein netter Empfang und eine tolle Wohnung. Zu diesem Preis und dann noch so zentral gelegen. Unschlagbar ! Ich hätte keine Bedenken, diese Wohnung wieder zu buchen! DANKE :-)
We enjoyed our stay in the appartement, 5 and 6 may, it is very close to all the important sightseeyings. It was very clean and neat. We can recommand this place absolutely!
The apartment was really great, just as seen in the pictures and absolutely clean. Also the key handover went smoothly and was completely organized. Really just a great experience and recommending!
Das Apartment war wirklich spitze, genauso wie in den Bildern zu sehen und absolut sauber. Auch die Schlüsselübergabe verlief reibungslos und war rundum organisiert. Wirklich eine super Erfahrung und nur weiterzuempfehlen!
Great apartment. Spacious, huge beautiful windows, open kitchen, very clean, elevator, quite. Not a super "cozy" neighborhood but I liked it because it felt like real berlin. Lots of families, working class, etc. Close to an S-Bahn station (no elevator at the station) three large grocery stores, a really good and amazingly cheap sushi/thai restaurant.
We were very pleasantly surprised, and the apartment is turned exactly as advertised on the Internet. By handing over everything went well because we arrived before the scheduled time. The apartment was great and we were comfortable gefühlt.Bestens of course, the subway stations right around the corner (U8), only two stops to ALEX. We can recommend this apartment without hesitation on. The value for money is ok
Wir waren sehr positiv überrascht und die Wohnung stellte sich genau so dar wie im Internet angepriesen. Mit der Übergabe ging alles bestens, da wir schon vor der vereinbarten Zeit ankamen. Die Wohnung war super und wir haben uns wohl gefühlt.Bestens ist natürlich auch die U-Bahnanbindung direkt um die Ecke (U8); nur zwei Stationen bis zum ALEX. Wir können diese Wohnung ohne Bedenken weiter empfehlen. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis ist o.k.
We liked the flat, it was clean and the location was good. We could come again and recommend it to our friends.

text: Posted February 5, 2013 Chud's play calling was based on the over use of the read options and the lack of use of our running game, despite the fact we have a TON of money invested in our back field, and gettign way too cute with his play calling and overthinking things. Try again pal. So you want to sit here and tell me the run game has nothing to do with a passing game? Really??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

text: So, I've read posts and looked at my haynes manual and none of the instructions mentions removing the half-shaft (front drive shaft) to access the castle nut for the upper ball joint. But once I got out in the snowy driveway, took the wheel off and took a peak, i see no way to get that nut off without removing the half-shaft. Am I right or am I missing a trick for accessing that castle nut without removing the half-shaft?

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
II: The Sith Lords is the next chapter to the award winning
game of 2003. Set in the unique timeframe of the Old Republic , 4,000
years before Star Wars Episode I, The Sith Lords features
an all-new more perilous storyline, new characters, classes, locations
and force powers.
Approximately five years after the events of the original Star
Wars : Knights of the Old Republic , the Jedi , nearly
brought to an end by the Sith, are on the brink of extinction.
The galaxy is in turmoil and the Republic no longer has the strength
to protect its worlds. Sith Assassins are hunting the one they
believe to be the last of the Jedi, the one who holds the key to
the fate of the galaxy – You.
In addition to an all-new storyline, The Sith Lords will
feature a host of memorable returning characters along with sinister
new villains. Using over 30 new Force powers, players can turn weak-minded
enemies against one another in combat with Force Confusion or see through
doors and view character alignment with Force Sight. Players can also

It doesn't get much better than Goodbye Pork Pie. It's the perfect Kiwi road movie, dripping with our humour, and takes in almost the whole country.
I drag it out for an annual viewing, and it never fails to deliver, despite knowing exactly what's coming around the next corner.
Imagine the sheer joy of belting through a railway station in a car that - at the time - was a mere fraction of the size of almost everything else on the road.
Take that Mini to Invercargill? Why the hell not? It was a '78 British Leyland Mini, one of three that were used in the movie. Two went back to the old New Zealand Motor Corporation in one piece and the other ... well, we all know what happened to that.
The legendary run to the deep south is happening again, and Driven will be along for the ride, fortunately not in a ropey old Mini 1000, but in the latest Mini Roadster - markedly more comfortable, and with a turbo engine that's not going to struggle up steep hills.
Anyone who has owned a Mini will tell you, they're a joy to own - mostly - but can be a total nightmare.
The ability to go through puddles without coming to a grinding halt is a massive advantage in the modern machine, as is the power to crest a judder bar without finishing up crawling around the road on all fours looking for a sump plug.
And the scope for back seat shenanigans? I'm sure it hasn't changed much, but can't testify to it. (Please don't email us about the legitimacy of this statement, we really, really don't want to know.)
The event this year will benefit nominated charities - the task is to raise money "by any means possible", and kicks off in Kaitaia on March 28.
After 2500km, and probably a few pies, the Mini faithful will, all things going well, railway station escapades and the constabulary notwithstanding, roll into Invercargill.

besides JWill making bad reads the two LB thing worked
[/quote]no its not. both that 80 yard run td and that long td pass were in his hybrid nickle ****. it suuuucks dude. its beeen sucking since the colts game last year.
The long TD pass was missed tackles. Makes no difference what defense your in if u can't tackle
and no.. JWill was suppose to fill the gap that FJax blew up in and Bernard tripped and got pushed completely out of the way with ease which widened the gap. Already rewatched the film real quick
JWill cut up to the left and got blocked into the wash. Had he met his blocker and blew him up or got ever the top of him the play would of been stopped. He was responsible for that gap
HE also had many other bad reads that lead to big gains
[/quote]bro we have 5 dbs on the field and theyre still getting beat, still have wrs running wiiiiiide open, elite wrs. how does that happen? if players are constantly blowing coverage(which they all are), its on the coach. good teams are going to dissect us, book it. coverage schemes dont work. you agreed with me a few times, now you disagree. did mh hijack your account just to troll?
it doesnt work. period.

Docket Number:
07-AFC-05 (Application For Certification)
07-AFC-5C (Compliance Proceeding)
Project Status: Licensed; In Compliance Phase. Operational: December 30, 2013.
The California Energy Commission approved this project's Application for Certification on September 22, 2010. The Commission monitors the power plant's construction, operation and eventual decommissioning through a compliance proceeding.
Committee that oversaw Original Licensing Proceeding:
Jeffrey D. Byron, Commissioner, Presiding Member
James D. Boyd, Vice Chair, Associate Member
Hearing Officer: Paul Kramer
Key Dates
- 8/31/07 - Application for Certification (AFC) filed with California Energy Commission
- 10/31/07 - Commission accepts Application as complete and "data adequate."
- 12/9/08 - Commission staff releases Preliminary Staff Assessment.
- 11/4/09 - Commission staff releases Final Staff Assessment.
- 8/3/10 - Committee releases Presiding Member's Proposed Decision.
- 9/22/10 - Commission approves Application For Certification.
- 12/30/13 - Power plant on line and producing power.
On August 31, 2007, Solar Partners I, LLC, Solar Partners II, LLC, Solar Partners IV, LLC and Solar Partners VIII, LLC (Solar Partners) submitted a single Application for Certification (AFC) to the California Energy Commission to develop three solar thermal power plants and shared facilities in close proximity to the Ivanpah Dry Lake, in San Bernardino County, California on federal land managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The proposed project would be constructed in three phases: two 100-megawatt (MW) phases (known as Ivanpah 1 and Ivanpah 2) and a 200-MW phase (Ivanpah 3). The three plants are collectively referred to as the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (ISEGS) and would be located in:
- Southern California's Mojave Desert, near the Nevada border, to the west of Ivanpah Dry Lake
- San Bernardino County 4.5 miles southwest of Primm, Nevada, 3.1 miles west of the California-Nevada border
- Township 17N, Range 14E, and Township 16N, Range 14E
Project Description
The proposed project includes three solar concentrating thermal power plants, based on distributed power tower and heliostat mirror technology, in which heliostat (mirror) fields focus solar energy on power tower receivers near the center of each heliostat array. Each 100-MW site would require approximately 850-acres (or 1.3 square miles) and would have three tower receivers and arrays; the 200-MW site would require approximately 1,600-acres (or 2.5 square miles) and would have 4 tower receivers and arrays. The total area required for all three phases would including the administration building/operations and maintenance building and substation and be approximately 3,400-acres (or 5.3 square miles). Given that the three plants would be developed in concert, the proposed solar plant projects would share the common facilities mentioned above to include access roads, and the reconductored transmission lines for all three phases. Construction of the entire project is anticipated to begin in the first quarter of 2009, with construction being completed in the last quarter of 2012.
Process Description
In each solar plant, one Rankine-cycle reheat steam turbine receives live steam from the solar boilers and reheat steam from one solar reheater located in the power block at the top of its own tower. The reheat tower would be located adjacent to the turbine. Additional heliostats would be located outside the power block perimeter road, focusing on the reheat tower. Final design layout locations are still being developed. The solar field and power generation equipment would be started each morning after sunrise and insolation build-up, and shut down in the evening when insolation drops below the level required to keep the turbine online.
Each plant also includes a partial-load natural gas-fired steam boiler, which would be used for thermal input to the turbine during the morning start-up cycle to assist the plant in coming up to operating temperature more quickly. The boiler would also be operated during transient cloudy conditions, in order to maintain the turbine on-line and ready to resume production from solar thermal input, after the clouds pass. After the clouds pass and solar thermal input resumes, the turbine would be returned to full solar production. Each plant uses an air-cooled condenser or "dry cooling," to minimize water usage in the site's desert environment. Water consumption would therefore, be mainly to provide water for washing heliostats. Auxiliary equipment at each plant includes feed water heaters, a deaerator, an emergency diesel generator, and a diesel fire pump.
Electricity would be produced by each plant's Solar Receiver Boiler and the steam turbine generator. The heliostat mirrors would be arranged around each solar receiver boiler. Each mirror tracks the sun throughout the day and reflects the solar energy to the receiver boiler. The heliostats would be 7.2-feet high by 10.5-feet wide (2.20-meters by 3.20-meters) yielding a reflecting surface of 75.6 square feet (7.04 square meters). They would be arranged in arcs around the solar boiler towers asymmetrically.
Each solar development phase would include:
- a natural gas-fired start-up boiler to provide heat for plant start-up and during temporary cloud cover;
- an air-cooled condenser or "dry cooling," to minimize water usage in the site's desert environment;
- one Rankine-cycle reheat steam turbine that receives live steam from the solar boilers and reheat steam from one solar reheater located in the power block at the top of its own tower adjacent to the turbine; and
- a raw water tank with a 250,000 gallon capacity; 100,000 gallons to be used for the plant and the remainder to be reserved for fire water.
- a small onsite wastewater plant located in the power block that treats wastewater from domestic waste streams such as showers and toilets;
- auxiliary equipment including feed water heaters, a deaerator, an emergency diesel generator, and a diesel fire pump.
Ivanpah 1, 2 and 3 would be interconnected to the Southern California Edison (SCE) grid through upgrades to SCE's 115-kV line passing through the site on a northeast-southwest right-of-way. Upgrades would include a new 220/115-kV breaker and-a-half substation between the Ivanpah 1 and 2 project sites. The existing 115-kV transmission line from the El Dorado substation would be replaced with a double-circuit 220-kV overhead line that would be interconnected to the new substation. Power from Ivanpah 1, 2 and 3 would be transmitted at 115-kV to the new substation.
Natural Gas
Natural gas supply for ISEGS would connect to the Kern River Gas Transmission Company (KRGT) pipeline about 0.5 miles north of the Ivanpah 3 site.
Water Use and Discharge
Raw ground water would be drawn from one of two wells, located east of Ivanpah 2, which would provide water to all three plants. Each well would have sufficient capacity to supply water for all three phases. Actual water is not expected to exceed 100 afy for all three plants. Groundwater would go through a treatment system for use as boiler make-up water and to wash the heliostats. No wastewater would be generated by the system, except for a small stream that would be treated and used for landscape irrigation.
Energy Commission and Bureau of Land Management Joint Review Process
The BLM and the Energy Commission have executed a Memorandum of Understanding concerning their intent to conduct a joint environmental review of all three plants in a single National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)/California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) process. It is in the interest of the BLM and the Energy Commission to share in the preparation of a joint environmental analysis of the proposed project to avoid duplication of staff efforts, to share staff expertise and information, to promote intergovernmental coordination at the local, state, and federal levels, and to facilitate public review by providing a joint document and a more efficient environmental review process.
Under federal law, the BLM is responsible for processing requests for rights-of-way to authorize the proposed project and associated transmission lines and other facilities to be constructed and operated on land it manages. In processing applications, the BLM must comply with the requirements of NEPA, which requires that federal agencies reviewing projects under their jurisdiction consider the environmental impacts associated with the proposed project construction and operation.
As the lead agency under CEQA, the Energy Commission is responsible for reviewing and ultimately approving or denying all applications to construct and operate thermal electric power plants, 50 MW and greater, in California. The Energy Commission's facility certification process carefully examines public health and safety, environmental impacts and engineering aspects of proposed power plants and all related facilities such as electric transmission lines and natural gas and water pipelines.
The first step in the Energy Commission's review process is for staff to determine whether or not the AFC contains all the information required by its regulations. When the Energy Commission determines the AFC is complete, staff will begin data discovery and issue analysis phases. At that time, a detailed examination of the issues will occur.
Energy Commission Facility Certification Process
The California Energy Commission is the lead agency (for licensing thermal power plants 50 megawatts and larger) under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has a certified regulatory program under CEQA. Under its certified program, the Energy Commission is exempt from having to prepare an environmental impact report. Its certified program, however, does require environmental analysis of the project, including an analysis of alternatives and mitigation measures to minimize any significant adverse effect the project may have on the environment.

Discussion in 'Hummer Forum' started by tbplus10, Jun 2, 2007.
No takers?
Nothing like taking a little trip out to the country in your new 4WD vehicle.
A little fresh air, a nice picnic, and a rolled Hummer. All parts of a good trip. :neutral:
Personally I prefer to keep the shiny side up. Nice to see that the roof can support the weight of the vehicle. I was upside down in a Monza once. Bad thing was it was in a drainage ditch and both doors wouldn't open. I had to kick the windshield out to escape.
Looks like a soft rollover. Damage should be cosmetic only.
He'd better not have broke any of the "Wobbley pops" breaking beer bottles bad...very bad!
As we allways say in the off-road world: Keep going, that'll buff out.
yeah thats waht 50,000 gets you, head in the dirt ass in the air
The picture no longer works but about 3 years ago when the chevy dealer down the street started selling the new hummers some of the dumb dealers took it mudding behind my house and got it stuck, and when i say stuck i mean up to the grill the tires were submerged.. how do you explain that one to a customer.. lol
Yeah, this is why I don't like people linking to photobucket. We've fixed a lot of the photo issues on the site already so it's better to post them here. OR you can click the IMAGE button when posting and then use their URL and it will copy it to this site so we have a perm copy of it so if it's taken down we will still have it to show.
ahh, photobucket direct link photos failed again.

An Analysis of Michael Behe's book, The Edge of Evolution
In his previous post, Ussery discussed his personal reasons for being interested in "The Edge of Evolution." He went on to discuss two aspects of the book he appreciates, and he showed that he and Behe are in agreement that all living organisms have arisen through common descent from a single ancestral species.
In this post, however, Ussery says that Behe has presented a vastly over-simplified view of what scientists know about the origin of genetic diversity in the history of life. Here is his analysis based on Chapters Two and Three.
The accompanying figure illustrates the amount of genetic diversity in the bacterial world and beyond. It shows that even a single species of bacteria (E. coli) contains a vast reservoir of different genes. The term "orthologous" refers to genes in different species that clearly resemble one another and are thereby believed to have a common ancestry. Genes which are not orthologous are found in the species on the right side but not on the comparator species on the left.
Chapter 2 - Arms Race or Trench Warfare?
This chapter is about one of the classic examples of evolution: malaria and sickle cell anemia in humans. Behe observes (correctly, in my opinion) that the mutations that are responsible for helping some humans fight malaria are bad mutations. 'The first point is that the two examples he cites, sickle and Hemoglobin C (HbC), (two mutations that help the body resist malaria), are quintessentially hurtful mutations because they diminish the functioning of the human body. A second point is that "the mutations are not in the process of joining to build a more complex, interactive biochemical system." (page 34).
Fair enough—and it is well known that harmful mutations, in the sense of wrecking something or making a pathway not work, occur much more frequently than beneficial mutations. However, Behe goes on to claim that there are "absolutely no studies' to document a molecular basis for the "coherent development of a single trait in a Darwinian arms race." But this is highly erroneous. True, the example he gives us is not a "good mutation"—but to just blatantly claim that nothing has been done is showing his ignorance of the literature.
For example, consider this from the abstract of a recent review article, with the title "Origins, evolution, and phenotypic impact of new genes," published in Genome Research. "The array of mechanisms underlying the origin of new genes is compelling, extending way beyond the traditionally well-studied source of gene duplication. Thus, it was shown that novel genes also regularly arose from messenger RNAs of ancestral genes, protein-coding genes metamorphosed into new RNA genes, genomic parasites were co-opted as new genes, and that both protein and RNA genes were composed from scratch (i.e., from previously non-functional sequences)." This is a new article, but many of the references in this article date to long before The Edge of Evolution was written, and some even date to before Darwin's Black Box was published, more than a decade ago.
Then there's another article about recent evolution of beneficial mutations in humans. There are many, many articles published on this sort of idea, and to claim that not a single study has been done is essentially a play on the ignorance of the readers! It is as if the hope is that the readers are ignorant of the scientific literature, and either too lazy or not competent to have a look through PubMed and see what is really out there.
Chapter 3 - The Mathematical Limits of Darwinism
One of my Ph.D. students was a mathematician, and I can still remember trying to read through his paper—lots of formulas—and sometimes they were difficult for me to understand. I have since learned that many people in math departments have a strong disliking for statisticians—I used to naively think that the two are the same. In this chapter, it looks as though Behe has confused mathematics (in the title) with statistics (what is actually discussed in the chapter). What's worse, the numbers he uses are based on bad assumptions, and are way off from what is known in the field by experimentalists doing current research in this area. Thus, unfortunately, his conclusions are not as strong as they might seem at first glance.
First, in calculating the odds of a single mutation in a protein, one has to take into account the chances of a mutation in the DNA sequence, because this is where mutations happen in biology—this is part of the 'central dogma' of molecular biology—that the information flows from DNA to RNA to protein, but not from proteins back to DNA. Thus, if a protein has a particular amino acid changed, this can be traced back to a change in the DNA sequence. Behe says "resistance to chloroquine has appeared fewer than ten times in the whole world in the past century"—but what is meant by this shorthand is that we have documented evidence of this happening only a few times - that's not the same as knowing definitively that this HAS happened only those few times. Lots of things [like mutations leading to drug resistance] happen all the time that don't get seen and documented.
Then, based on this vastly over-simplified estimate, he suggests that the odds of a parasite developing resistance to chloroquine is one in 1020, whilst the odds of developing resistance to another drug (atovaquone) is one in 1012. Since the former, he says, involves two amino acid changes, while the latter involves on one, from these two numbers, it is concluded that the chance of having mutations which change two amino acids in a protein is a hundred million times lower (10-20 vs 10-12) than that for just getting one.
But this just simply does not make sense. Even within E. coli, the well known work-horse of molecular biology, take the order of amino acids in any one of its 5000 or so proteins, and compare that arrangement to that in otherE. coli strains and you will find LOTS of differences. For many proteins in E. coli, the level of identity between strains is around 80%—that is, about twenty out of every hundred amino acids are different—so to say that the odds for a double mutation (2 amino acid changes out of 100), is essentially impossible, when we observe 10 times that amount of diversity (20 differences for every 100 amino acids) in natural populations is speaking from ignorance. We see ten times the number of changes which Behe says is almost impossible all around us within a single species without even the need to generate new mutations.
I'll discuss the vast differences found with various sequenced E. coli genomes later, but getting back to this chapter and the mutations in the two different spots within a single gene, Behe concludes:
On average, for humans to achieve a mutation like this by chance, we would need to wait a hundred million times ten million years. Since this is many times the age of the universe, it's reasonable to conclude the following: No mutation that is the same complexity of chloroquine resistance in malaria arose by Darwinian evolution in the line leading to humans in the past ten million years. (page 61, emphasis in the original).
But again, if one takes a deep breath, and looks at what is known, the mutational frequency that we can actually measure in humans is many times greater than that upon which Behe's assumptions are based. His argument is that the chances of getting useful mutations at two sites in the same gene are highly unlikely. But can we assess how likely mutations, which are likely to change the function of a gene, occur? One of the underlying assumptions of molecular biology is that sequence determines structure, and that this structure determines function. Hence, a major structural change is likely to have a different function. So how common are mutations that result in structural changes in proteins?
Surprisingly Common! One out of every 21 births in humans have some sort of STRUCTURAL change (and hence likely a functional change) in a protein, just from insertions from a single transposable element (alu), common in humans. It is already evident that Behe has a real problem with "random" mutations—but I think perhaps he is confusing 'randomness' with 'purposelessness'.1 More about that in my next post.

Slice potatoes into thin (1/8-inch) rounds. Toss the slices in a medium bowl with oil and salt to coat evenly.
Step 2
Coat a large microwave-proof plate with cooking spray. Arrange some potato slices in a single layer on the plate. Microwave, uncovered, on High until some slices start to brown, 2 to 3 minutes (depending on potato thickness and microwave power). Turn the slices over and continue microwaving until they start to crisp and brown around the edges, 2 to 4 minutes more. Check frequently and rearrange slices as needed to prevent scorching. Transfer the chips to another plate and allow to cool completely. (They will crisp more as they cool.) Repeat with the remaining potato slices.

My guess is everyone would prefer throwing TE seams in congested zones, seven yards before the goal line.
Take into consideration what kind of options open up when this play can be successfully ran. If a receiver has the option, and a corner cheats, he can just run the slant. If the fade is designed to the Z receiver, and the defense commits a safety to him, the Y runs a seam and is likely to score.
Very important route to establish. This thread blows.

Honestly, your original post wasn't saying anything. The only thing it really implied, through hyperbole, was that it didn't work. I take that as a resignation, i.e. let's not do it anymore.

Reviews of this property
Afrader! Our accommodation was very dirty (black shower mold and mildew stench huge!, Floor rancid, rusty cutlery etc), there were 3 boxes of rat poison (previously reported that our baby arrived, it was okay. Well totally unsuitable so! My daughter crawled 'cheerful' around when I discovered .... t), the TV was broken. There would someone come to repair, never seen. I also have to call myself back. Poorly spoken to and problem has never been solved. Very bad service and dirty apartment. Location is great!
Afrader!! Onze accomodatie was zeer vies (douche zwart van schimmel en een enorme schimmel stank!, vloer ranzig, bestek verroest etc), er lagen 3 doosjes rattengif (vooraf gemeld dat wij met onze baby kwamen, was oké. Nou totaal niet geschikt dus!! Mijn dochter kroop 'vrolijk' rond toen ik 't ontdekte....), de tv was kapot. Er zou iemand komen om te repareren, nooit gezien. Ik heb er ook zelf achteraan moeten bellen. Slecht te woord gestaan en probleem is nooit opgelost. Zeer slechte service en smerig appartement.
Locatie is wel top!
I originally booked another apartment but was given this because the one I'd paid for was unavailable. The location is amazing, but the flat isn't very nice and it's not accurately represented by the pictures on the website. For instance, the walls in the living room are now a horrible purple colour; it's in such poor condition that paint is peeling badly at the entrance and in most rooms; the 'new' sofa bed doesn't fit in the living room (unless you remove the table, but then you can barely squeeze through the middle room to get to the bathroom); and the mattress on that sofa bed is disgusting. Also, one window blind has to stay completely open because the (barely functioning) satellite for the TV blocks it, so good luck trying to sleep in that room if the sun has risen. The proper bed has a nice mattress, but the bed isn't adjusted to compensate for the strong slant of the floor, so it's hard to roll over and the mattress tends to slide to one side of the bed. There are few glasses and some are chipped, so be prepared to buy disposable ones. Finally, the shower curtain was so black with mould that we had to buy another one. The stars are for the location, which is incredible, but the property itself was really disappointing and not as described.
Excellent location close to metro, quiet, great view of Sacre Cour. Accommodation with all the comforts needed for the stay: WE HAVE BEEN VERY SATISFIED. Monica
Posizione ottimale vicina a metro, posto tranquillo, vista stupenda su Sacre Cour. Alloggio con tutti i confort necessari per il soggiorno: SIAMO STATI MOLTO SODDISFATTI.
We really loved our time in this gorgeous unit, so centrally located in Montmartre.
We felt extremely secure behind double security doors and the unit has a charm of its own.
The shower is really great which is important to us. Hot water is very hot so just need to take care here.
We loved this unit and would highly recommend it.
nice, small and clean flat with everything inside! all electric devices worked. The only thing which bothered me, was the twisted floor of the flat. Sometimes you had the feeling, that you're on a boat with rough see :-) But I think this is in every house in Montmatre. That's the price you've to pay, if you want to stay in a house in an old district of Paris.
Interesting location for short stays but dysfunctional or defective equipment (coffee machine, heating, TV)
Emplacement intéressant pour des courts séjours mais équipements défectueux ou dysfonctionnels (percolateur, chauffage, TV)
Reviews for this host's other properties
I went here in oktober 2012 and the beds were not very good. The appartment was not clean and the shower had a lot of mold. I told the host about the mold, but it seems like he does not care. Still mold problems, even 2 years later.
I cannot recommend this appartment.
great location, just a bit cleaner could be
super gelegen, könnte nur ein bisschen sauberer sein
Small for 4 people, and that we went with two girls. Upon arrival we found that there were only sheets and towels for 2. We had to call the agency to fix it, the owner is an agency. They were brought up that afternoon.
The floor was dirty and worn, with mold in the corners of the shower, cobwebs on the ceiling, and the furniture in the old kitchen and also hichados moisture. We not cook because we were disgusted. Smelled musty, the bathroom has no ventilation. The sink faucet was loose. The lights did not work, only two lamps plug. fucionaba television and also, besides being old and become sticky. I do not recommend this apartment to a family with children. Dirt is not once, but a long time, so I think that the positive comments on this apartment are not real.
Pequeño para 4 personas, y eso que fuimos con dos niñas. Nada más llegar nos encontramos con que sólo había sábanas y toallas para 2. Tuvimos que llamar a la agencia para solucionarlo, el propietario es una agencia. Nos las trajeron esa misma tarde.
El piso estaba sucio y deteriorado, con moho en las esquinas de la ducha, telerañas en el techo, y los muebles de la cocina viejos y además hichados de humedad. No cocinamos porque nos dió asco. Olía a humedad, el baño no tiene ventilación. El grifo del lavabo estaba suelto. Las luces no funcionaban, sólo dos lámparas de enchufar. y la televisión tampoco fucionaba, además de ser antigua y estar pegajosa. No recomiendo este piso a ninguna familia con niños. La suciedad no es de una vez, sino de mucho tiempo, por lo que considero que los comentarios positivos sobre este apartamento no son reales.

The alumni H-Club at Hope College will
present its "Hope for Humanity Award" to the Rev. Jack
Klunder of Hopkins on Saturday, Oct. 18.
The award, first presented in 1990, recognizes
Hope athlete alumni for service to others, transformation of
Christian values and consistency of commitment. The H-Club
will recognize Klunder during its annual Homecoming
luncheon, which will be held in the Haworth Conference and
Learning Center.
Klunder is pastor of Hopkins Community Reformed
Church, where he has served for four years. He has also
been head boys' varsity basketball coach at Hopkins High
School for two years.
"I think that he makes a great candidate for the
award because he embodies in three areas of his life what
we'd like Hope alumni to be," said Russell DeVette of
Holland, a professor emeritus of physical education at Hope,
who coached Klunder on the college's varsity men's
basketball team, and will be presenting the award on
Saturday. DeVette singled out Klunder's commitment as a
parent, service as a pastor and perspective as a coach.
Prior to coming to Hopkins, Klunder was founding
pastor of the Church of the Good Shepherd in Franklin, Tenn.
He also held pastorates at Mason County Reformed Church near
Ludington, Metuchen Reformed Church in New Jersey and Palos
Heights Reformed Church in Illinois.
He served on the Reformed Church in America's
Commission on Church History and Christian Action Commission
for six years, and is a board member for Habitat for
Humanity. He co-edited "Servant Gadfly," a festshrift for
John W. Beardslee III which is part of the Reformed Church
in America Historical Series.
During his first year as coach, the Hopkins boys'
basketball team advanced to the state high school Class C
semifinals. During his second year, the team won its
league's title with an 18-2 record. He was a 1997 nominee
for MHSAA Class C "Coach of the Year."
Klunder graduated from Hope with a bachelor's
degree in biology. He played basketball during all four of
his years at the college, three on the men's varsity team.
He holds a master of divinity from Western
Theological Seminary, and a doctorate from Westminster
Theological Seminary.
Klunder and his wife Mary, who is also a 1974 Hope
graduate, have four children: Jennifer, Kristin, Jack and
Bethany. Jennifer is a senior at Hope, and is a fifth
generation Hope student.
The Hope College Alumni H-Club consists of Hope
alumni who were athletic letter winners and other honorary
letter winners as approved by the H-Club's Board of
Directors, and currently has more than 2,800 members. The
previous recipients of the "Hope for Humanity Award" were:
Ekdal J. Buys of Holland, a 1937 Hope graduate (1994);
Robert N. DeYoung of Holland, a 1956 Hope graduate (1995);
Mary Dykema of Holland, a 1973 Hope graduate (1992); the
late Herman Laug of Coopersville, a 1929 Hope graduate
(1990); George Moger of Fort Gratiot, a 1978 Hope graduate
(1991); and Ross Nykamp of Fennville, a 1980 Hope graduate

The Australian Exchange Traded Options (ETO) usually have 1000 share per contract. Some shares can have a different contract size for instance 1060. This may be due to a corporate action such as a stock split or consolidation. Option contracts also vary depending on the different national exchanges, for example options in the USA have 100 shares per contract. Similarly the contract size changes for different types of assets, for instance gold future options are based on the number of ounces per contract.
The ETO options expiration date is usually the last Thursday of every month. Index options expiry is usually the second last Thursday of every month. When placing an options trade you should always confirm the expiration date.
Strike Price
The strike price is the price at which you have the right to buy the underlying shares. Most traders would not exercise the option because they could sell their option for the same gross profit but with less transaction costs, therefore greater net profit. Also if you close the position before expiry there will also be some time value in the option and therefore greater profit than at expiry. However, if using options to manage your share portfolio you may want to buy/sell the stock at the strike price.
Option Premium
The premium is the price of an option.
Option Type
There are two types of options: American style options and European style options. American options can be exercised anytime until expiry. All options on the ASX that are on shares are American style options. European options can only be exercised at expiry and these are the index options (e.g. XJO options).
When an option is exercised they are settled with physical delivery of the underlying asset. For example Australian ETOs are settled by physical delivery of shares. Whereas, index options are settled by physical delivery of cash. This is because it is unable to take physical delivery of the index. To take delivery of the index you would have to buy every share in the index which is not realistically possible or cost effective.
Buy 2 contracts BHP Mar 2009 3000 Calls @ 120
• "Buy" determines it is a bought option
• "2 contracts" means exposure to 2000 shares
• "BHP" is the underlying asset
• "March 2009" is the expiration date of the option
• "3000" refers to 3000 cents or $30.00 which is the strike price
• "Calls" determines it is a call option
• "120" refers to 120 cents or $1.20 which is the premium to buy this option. So the person would have paid 2000 multiplied by $1.20 = $2,400 for this option.

Snooki Beaston - SNOOKI BEASTON BIG TINGS MIXXX
I don't even know where to begin with this one. Wait, yes I do. In mid-October, some kid(s) we all know and love within our respective blogosphere and online networks were at an event to which the tweets began to fly that a "human mashup" was spinning the party. Said mash was a mix of ugh, Snooki, and well, me. If you know me IRL, then you know I don't resemble the pickle puckered dwarf in any way, shape or form, but c'est la vie, this encounter has spawned all sorts of net-worthy treats.
The first of which is a twitter account by the name of SNOOKI BEASTON. out of which reveal some of the funnier tweets this side of the Jersey Shore. Recently, an AIM name came to the surface in which conversations are all typed in caps, DUH.
The latest and greatest of all extremities of said virtual encounters is a minimix of verifiably fist-pump worthy tunes, lovingly dubbed the SNOOKI BEASTON BIG TINGS MIXXX. (track list after the player, with a super duper bonus cut after that)
Now let it be known, I have NO association with the online persona or presence of this evil little mastermind. But I do have an idea of who's behind it. No fun in revealing the secrets...so let's just drop this mix on you before we jet out the door for a night time GTL sesh.

v. When all you can do all day long is lay on the couch, unshowered, in the same underwear you dribbled on the night before, in sweatpants, and eat and watch television all day long. You do not have the energy to get up to anything that doesn't involve making or eating food; even a shower is just too taxing. A pull out couch or futon is usually involved, as well as lots of pillows and blankets. Closely related to "Big Fat Fuck-a-Thon".

Not quite what you are after? Ring size not listed?
Contact us for etching and customisation options >>
Your own little tree grove right there on your lapel!
The design is carved into the band using a tiny chisel and then blackened to make it really pop. This brooch is made from sterling silver and measures 30mm x 30mm. We're always happy to discuss other sizes as we make each brooch to order.
We finish our jewellery matte. Satin and high polish is also available upon request.
Over time the colour in the etchings can sometimes wear away but we can re-blacken the image any time for the cost of postage only.
Orders over $1000 include a handmade wooden box and courier express shipping. All other orders come minimally packaged in a recycled kraft box.
Once an order is placed, it generally takes 3-6 weeks to be completed depending on the design and materials used. If you need something in a hurry, we can almost always accommodate, just get in touch.
If purchasing from outside New Zealand you may be charged import duties by your country's customs department. In our experience it's most likely you won't be charged at all but sometimes it does happen and unfortunately it's something we have no control over.
To determine your correct finger size, you need to first figure out what width of ring you'd like as this directly affects the size needed. As the width increases the size needs to increase a little as well.
Almost any thickness/width/finger size is possible - including ¼ finger sizes but with etchings usually 3mm is as narrow as we like to go.
The best thing to do is to try on rings with different widths to find which one you like the look and feel of. When you find one that is the right size and width, measure the size - to the edge of the ring.
Another way to find the right width is to cut pieces of card in different widths and wrap them around your finger.
If you are using an existing ring to find a size, the inside diameter is what you're looking for, small amounts make a big difference so a measurement to the nearest ¼ of a millimetre is needed.
You can also purchase a plastic finger sizer here.
For a wrist size, a piece of string wrapped around your wrist then measured should do the trick.
If you can't find exactly what you're looking for from the drop down lists, see our customisation options above.
We want you to love your piece and for it to be comfortable to wear everyday! If it's not, we'll refund (minus postage) or replace upon receipt of the original item in an unworn condition. Returns must be made within 60 days.RESIZING
Please make every effort to get an accurate size. We are happy to do the first resize free of charge but subsequent resizes will be charged for. Anything that's our fault of course we will fix for free.
Rings with stones or custom work can be a little trickier to resize so this can take some extra time.
Titanium cannot be resized so it is very important to get the size right first time. If the size needs to be adjusted any more than 1/4 of a size up a new ring will need to be purchased. For more information about titanium check out this blog post.JEWELLERY CARE
Re-etching, blackening and cleaning we are happy to do anytime for the cost of postage.RETURNS

Holiday Gift Guide: 'Deep Focus: They Live'
When it comes to the holiday gift-giving season, comic book readers are notoriously difficult to shop for. I mean, most of us are down at the shop buying our favorite stuff every single week, so when the time comes for people who like us to get us something we want, well, a lot of times we already have it. That's why we're stepping in with a public service, bringing you comics-related items sure to make the season brighter, whether you're browsing for a gift or just looking for something to drop hints about so that you don't get stuck with a random assortment of back issues again.
Today, I'm putting on my magic sunglasses and thinking outside the box to bring you one of the weirdest (and best) gift ideas on my lift: Jonathan Lethem and Sean Howe's Deep Focus: They Live.

text: Hi, I actually very rarely visit the forum so please excuse me if this topic has already been discussed. I did my best to search through past posts and haven't found it, though, so if it has, I'd be grateful for a link! For years I used to skate in nylon socks and found it comfortable (more comfortable than with any other kind of socks or tights) but yesterday I forgot to bring fresh ones with me to the rink and remembered that I had been told a long time ago that some skaters prefer to skate barefoot I decided to give it a try. I didn't expect much of a difference so I was actually very surprised how well it worked for me! Although my skates are well-fitted I nevertheless do slide a tiny little bit in them when wearing nylons (it's hardly noticeable and never caused me blisters but it feels like it's there...) and this sensation was entirely gone and my feet just felt nice and cosy in general I was thinking of starting to skate barefoot regularly but I am concerned about hygiene. Is anybody here skating barefoot regularly? Do you take extra care of your boots because of that? To be honest my boots reek even though I've always skated in socks but I am nevertheless concerned about the smell getting even stronger. And about mould and bacteria. I always take my boots out of the bag to help them dry after each session (I only very rarely forget to do that) but is there anything else I should be doing? Also, I assume the breakdown of the boots might be accelerated because of more moisture. It is not a huge concern for me given that currently I actually skate very little and that I overshot a bit when buying the boots and while they're quite fine, I wouldn't terribly mind if they got a tad softer. But on the other hand I wouldn't want to destroy them very fast... Is it OK to use a shoe refresher spray with them or would that lead to an even faster boot deterioration? Thanks in advance for your insight!

st: Unbalanced panel data with non-random missing data
Tue, 7 Apr 2009 20:09:29 +0200
Dear users,
I am analyzing a panel data of firms for years 1978, 1988, 1998, 2003. The total number of firms changes across years and, as a consequence of several mergers and acquisitions, I have very few examples of firms existing in all the four years.
I also think that the total number of firms does not change randomly, but it is due to some endogenous factor (i.e. political reforms which incentive firms to merge or to go public).
Could you please tell me which are the econometric problems I could face with such an unbalanced panel? Is there any way to correct it?
Thank you in advance.
Dr. Emanuele Canegrati

MANUFACTURER: Eotech
Review This Item
By popular demand, the EOTech EXPS3-2 Holographic Sight, NV Compatible, 65 MOA ring and (2) 1 MOA dots Reticle, Tan (EXPS3-2TAN) is now offered in flat dark earth (FDE). The EXPS is the ultimate CQB optic and perfect for all of the new modular rifle designs offered in this color scheme.
Offering true 2 eyes open shooting, a transversly mounted lithium 123 battery, and 7 mm raised base offering iron sight access, the Extreme-XPS (Eotech EXPS) features easy to adjust side buttons and a single, quick release throw lever for easy attachment and removal.
The illuminated ring-dots reticle offers 30 brightness levels to choose from, 10 of which are compatible with night vision gear. The battery compartment was completely redesigned to accommodate a single CR123A battery - an easy to open cover is held in place by a tethered o-ring, and the compartment is elevated so it hovers over the Delta Ring.
Designed for today's modern battlefield, the Eotech Sight EXPS3-2 is submersible to a depth of 33 feet, and the 1" Weaver or (MIL-STD-1913) mount is repeatable to 2 MOA after re-mounting. The rear window is a 3/16" thick shatterproof laminate with anti-glare and scratch resistant coatings, and the front lens is 1/8" solid glass. Because the optical system is based upon transmission holography, parallax error is not an issue - this is an excellent feature that can save your hams when the mayonnaise hits the fan.
WARNING: The HWS Model EXPS is controlled under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) ECCN 0A987, and may not be exported to a Foreign Person, either in the U.S. or abroad, without a license or exception from the U.S. Department of Commerce.
