Maia brings a dynamic new color to Kenya's contemporary musical landscape. Born and raised in Nairobi to a German/Italian mother and Kenyan father, Maia's unique heritage is combined into a fresh sound weaving jazz, funk, folk & blues all sprinkled with swahili spice.
A traveller at heart, Maia has lived and performed in Berlin, Melbourne & Dublin. Since returning to Kenya in 2007, Maia has established her current live act, a high-energy 6-piece band that has been making waves throughout East Africa, gracing the stages of prominent festivals such as Africa Utopia (UK), HIFA (Zimbabwe), Kigali UP (Rwanda), Sauti za Busara (Zanzibar), The Great Rift Valley Festival and Blankets & Wine (Kenya). Maia's intimate acoustic performances, both solo and as a trio, have also garnered enthusiastic responses from audiences all over the world.
Maia's debut album Drift (Feb 2013) is a culmination of her travels, collaborations and experiences, all backed by an array of East Africa's best musicians. Recorded entirely on vintage equipment in Nairobi garages and living rooms, as well as further studio sessions in Berlin, Maia's songs sing of new political horizons for Kenya's disempowered youth, of the plight of women and domestic violence across the world, as well as personal introspections of the solitude and isolation felt in not belonging to any single culture or community.
Her previous recordings include 2008's self-titled EP featuring Oyster which appeared on Warner Poland's Ladies' Jazz Album Vol 6, and Uko Wapi which earned her two African Academy Awards for best soundtrack in Kenya's 'From a Whisper' and Uganda's 'Imani.

October 10, 2011/The Mining Journal
SAULT STE. MARIE (AP) - A decommissioned Great Lakes freighter that now serves as a museum piece is the proving ground for engineers seeking improved ways to update large-scale industrial equipment.
The 95-year-old ore carrier Valley Camp now serves as a museum ship in Sault Ste. Marie.
Engineers in a Lake Superior State University project have been scanning the Valley Camp's engine room, with the goal of making a high fidelity, three-dimensional digital rendering of the facility.
The university says senior engineering students are creating the model for an industrial client that seeks to "prototype a way of 'virtualizing' the maintenance, repair, and overhaul of oversized industrial machinery.
The school says technicians are using a state-of-the-art scanner from Leica to take in 360-degree views of the ship's mechanical areas.

This year's Global Week of Action Against Gun Violence is scheduled for 1-8 May 2016.
The IANSA Women's Network has released its latest position paper, 'The Arms Trade Treaty: An Important Opportunity to Prevent Gender Based Violence at Gunpoint'
From 28 November – 01 December 2011, IANSA is holding a national training on Small Arms and Light Weapons in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. 13 people will be taking part in the training, and reporting on what they have discussed on this blog.
Written by IANSA Woman Rebecca Gerome, this report presents the main findings of an assessment conducted in Lebanon, Jordan and Occupied Palestinian Territory from January to May 2011
This new publication from the IANSA Women's Network aims to show why it is important to include women in small arms control and disarmament initiatives
This information pack was prepared by IANSA for the African Union Expert Meeting to elaborate an ATT common position in Lome, Togo 28-29 September 2011.
17 June 2014 – Morning SessionThe third meeting of the Fifth Biennial Meeting of States was called to order by moderator, Anthony Simpson, of New Zealand. This session debated on the implementation of ITI for states to identify and trace small arms and light weapons and their ammunitions in a timely manner as contained in document a/conf/192/bms/2004/1. Two brief presentations were made on the related topic as proposed by the chair.
16 June 2014 – Morning session
The morning session was opened by the Deputy High Representative of Disarmament Affairs, Virginia Gamba. She recalled that while over the past years there have been major achievements, member states still faced daunting challenges and hundreds of thousands of lives across the globe were destroyed by guns. Illegal guns created crime, conflict, threatened international aid workers and impeded development.
We are pleased to announce that the date for this year's Global Week of Action Against Gun Violence is 16–22 June 2014. This week has been chosen to coincide with the next meeting in the UN small arms process, the
The Small Arms Survey has recently made their 2013 publication, "Everyday Dangers" available to download on its website.

Press Release
Turbo Squid's Product Sales Increase 17% with New Search Engine
(New Orleans, LA- February 17, 2006) - TurboSquid, home of the world's largest collection of royalty-free 3D assets, today announced the upgrade of its web site's search engine. The new search system allows users to find products more easily than before and has already resulted in a 17% increase in product sales.
Colin Gagon, Turbo Squid's product manager and former member of the product delivery team at AskJeeves, North America's fifth largest web search engine, led the re-engineering effort of the search system to optimize search speed and to increase the relevance of search results. "The new system benefits everyone," said Gagon "both publishing artists and customers alike will be pleased with the improvements."
Turbo Squid developed the new search system based on comprehensive customer feedback, gathered through user forums and surveys. "With the revamp, the new search system is now considering a variety of additional search criteria. As a result, it became more effective in locating the products customers search for" said the experienced search engine developer Gagon. "However, the new search system not only produces more accurate results for Turbo Squid's large assortment of product choices, but it also fine-tunes itself daily and can be scaled to handle millions of products in the future."
Turbo Squid's vast and rapidly growing selection of 3D products, which now features well beyond 125,000 different items, put a strain on the accuracy and relevance of search results produced by the old search system. Customers often stated that the old search engine returned products that were only partially relevant to their searches and that it would not place the products they desired within the top results.
As Matt Wisdom, CIO of Turbo Squid, explains "When customers searched for a 'gun,' they would typically find high quality models including guns, such as fighter planes that happen to have a gun on them. Although these fighter planes have a gun on them, when searching for 'guns,' users typically want to find individual guns, such as pistols or rifles, instead of fighter planes including a gun, even if the quality of the model of the fighter plane is slightly higher than that of the pistols or rifles."
Before the full-scale launch of the new search engine, Turbo Squid tested both search systems side by side. Turbo Squid randomly assigned 50% of users to the old system and 50% of users to the new system. At the end of the testing period, Turbo Squid determined that the new system delivered a 17% increase in product sales as compared to the old system. "The observed trend that customers purchase more items in each order indicates that they find the products they are looking for more easily and more quickly than they did before" summarizes Alex Forst, Director of Marketing at Turbo Squid.
About TurboSquid
Founded in 2000, TurboSquid is dedicated to the management and distribution of digital products and other relevant content for 3D and 2D designers and creative professionals. TurboSquid provides a global market for digital products by enabling individual and corporate users to list, promote and sell their content to users around the world.

Dents in s steel
Anyone know how to get dents out of a steel refrigerator door ?
I hope somebody answers. I'd like to know myself LOL.
I did a quick Google. Seems like dry ice is a fan favorite.
Warm the area with the dent with a hair dryer just a bit too warm to the palm. THEN apply the dry ice to the dented area. Usually (?) this will cause the metal to shrink and pull the dent out. Dry ice hard to find? Just use a regular ice cube. Dry ice just lasts longer per application. This works on small auto body dents also.
Either of those suggesting ice and heat, have you personally had success with those methods?
The heat & ice will work on rounded dents and pop them out. Unfortunately, a lot of door dents are caused by sharp corners on the object striking them. So the ding or crease will not come out.
You can try one of the outfits that advertise paintless dent repair for automobiles.
If your fridge is SS steel the results may not be as completely invisible as the repair on enameled finishes.
While i have never tried it either, there are videos showing the process on Youtube of the mentioned heat and ice.
My dents are dings I guess (with point and not just round ) that's why I was doubting the ice and heat myself
I have done it successfully by removing the interior panel and working a rounded tool through the foam to the dent. Careful and back and forth motions are the operative words. On a freezer door (top mount) I drilled a small hole in the bottom and worked the tool up to the dent, then filled the hole with silicone.
Check on what a replacement door skin would cost. I've got to get a new one for our fridge, it had a shelf land on it during the move and creased it, but good. New skin is about $200. It'll be an adventure pulling the whole thing apart, I'm sure, but less than the price of a new fridge...
I didn't think about removing the skin . If I do that taping it out may be good enough at least better
Yup, 'less worse' is often good enough.
Strategically placed refrigerator magnet.
If it is not Stainless:
Why not sand the entire Door down, repair the Dents with Car body filler, prime the Door, then paint it again in any color you like?
They also have some Colors now that look like Stainless.
A replacement Skin cost about $500, by the way.

I'm glad to say that adding extra memory to the Macbook is among the easiest upgrade work you can do. Therefore, it is recommended that you add memory yourself except if you don't want to take the risk and mess with the MacBook's internal components. Certainly, the local Macintosh service technician will be glad to install new RAM module for you (for a price, of course). To add a memory module to your MacBook Pro or MacBook, follow the following steps:
- Get ready to work.
Spread a big clean towel on a firm work surface, such as your dining table. The towel will protect your LCD screen from scratches.
a. Get a Phillips screwdriver.
b. Turn off your laptop and wait for about 10 minutes for it to cool off.
c. Disconnect all cables from the Macbook.
- Close the Macbook; put it on the towel and flip it over.
- Ground thyself! Check out the last part of this article to get yourself grounded
- Now, you can remove the battery. To remove it slide two release latches up to remove the battery.
- Take out the two screws that hold the memory door. Remember to place those screws in a plastic bowl just for safekeeping. Tah dah! That wasn't much of a big challenge, was it? Now, here's your opportunity to gaze solemnly with rapt fascination on the inner organs your favorite Macbook.
- Find the memory module inside your Macbook's svelte chassis.
- If you are replacing your existing memory module, take it out. To remove the memory module, softly spread the two tabs located at the both ends of the memory socket apart and then gently lift and slide the memory module away from the socket. You should keep the old memory module inside the static-free packaging that previously held the new memory module. If not broken, your old RAM (which can be sold on eBay) will be shielded from static electricity.
- Put the new memory module in the socket.
a.Try to line up the module's gold-colored connectors toward the socket, at about 25 degree angle.
b.Try to line up the notch in the memory module with the socket's matching spacer
- Press firmly (but gently) on both ends of the memory module until the tabs on both ends of the socket are clicked into place.
- Put the memory door and battery back into their original places, just reverse the above steps.
Now, you've done it - you're one step closer to become a MacBook guru! To be sure that everything is well with your MacBook, boot the laptop, go to the Apple menu, and select About This Mac. It should report that you have more memory capacity (if you add more memory modules).
Follow one cardinal rule when you explore the insides of any computers:
Start with grounding yourself before you touch any computer parts. Human body may carry sufficient static electricity to harm the chips and circuitry that make up the brain of a MacBook, and touching those vital parts without grounding yourself is a certain invitation for tragedy.
Grounding yourself is very easy to do:
You should touch a metal surface for a couple of seconds before you start your works. After you ground your body, you can then comfortably handle the internal parts of your laptop and any brand new hardware parts that you might be installing (like memory module or a hard disk).
If you walk inside a room - looking for a missing screwdriver, perhaps, or taking a quick of coffee sip in the kitchen - you have to ground yourself again before begin your work again.
Keep in mind:
You can pick up enough dangerous static charge by simply walking for a few feet. Go figure

Arkansas County Clerks Respond To Same-Sex Ban Ruling
LITTLE ROCK, AR- The Arkansas County Clerks (ACC) released the following statement in response to the same-sex ruling ban in Arkansas that was ruled unconstitutional on Friday.
The timing of a Pulaski County Circuit Court ruling late Friday in the middle of primary early voting that possibly alters marriage licensures in the State of Arkansas has put Arkansas County Clerks in a cumbersome situation as they try to not only follow the law and serve all their citizens but to also manage their accessible infrastructure in doing so.
A motion for stay was filed Friday and parties are awaiting a decision on a hearing or to grant or deny the motion to stay. If neither are granted, the parties will take their motion to the Supreme Court.
Only six county clerks are actually named defendants in the current ruling; it is questionable of the implications of this ruling on the other 69 counties that are non-parties. Several other county clerks and their counsel will await a ruling by the Supreme Court. The ruling is unclear for counties that are named in the suit or not. It doesn't describe how to execute the order or more importantly allow for accurately doing so in some counties. County clerks have been consulting with their local legal counsel and will devise their plan of action.
A stay would allow not only the legal process and its implications to properly manifest, but in this instance, it also allows county clerks a chance to carry out their marriage licensure role in an organized, efficient and accurate manner for all the people of Arkansas.

CRS, INC Magazine scam Pilot Point Texas
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
A young man, Adam Kemper, was going door to door selling magazines for CRS, INC last winter (February 2013). Both my roommate and I bought a magazine subscription for $40 each and have not received the magazines. It says on the receipt I have the magazines could take 90 to 120 days and it has been much longer than that. There is no number to call on my receipt to reach the company.
The young man claimed that he was selling magazines for the company to earn points toward a trip. He said the competition was all about first impressions and trying to be less shy. He seemed like a nice guy and that is why both I and my roommate decided to help him out. We both used checks when paying him.
I still have the receipt with the order number and what I bought. My order number is CRS 528171 and there is another number CS #940-202-3530. The receipt is dated for February 7, 2013.

Quest Visual's Word Lens is now free, thanks to its recent acquisition from Google. The cross-platform translation app has even been featured on the iPhone 5s commercial, but now Google will most likely merge the service with Google Translate and Google Glass. Unfortunately, the app is not available for Windows users.
By joining Google, we can incorporate Quest Visual's technology into Google Translate's broad language coverage and translation capabilities in the future.
As a thank you to everybody who supported us on our journey, we've made both the app and the language packs free to download for a limited time while we transition to Google.
With the free app, users will now have free access to the following language pairs:
+ English ⇆ Russian
+ English ⇆ Spanish
+ English ⇆ French
+ English ⇆ Italian
+ English ⇆ German
+ English ⇆ Portuguese
Admittedly, the app in its current state is not perfect, but it's free and works even without an internet connection or cellular signal. If you find that you are having difficulties translating – try manually typing in the characters. For the best translation services, stick to these tips:
– Best used on clearly printed text (e.g. signs, menus)
– DOES NOT recognize handwriting or stylized fonts
– Keep text in focus by holding it at least one hand-length away and tap-to-focus if autofocus is struggling.
– Turn on the flashlight (if available on your device)
– Zoom in (if available on your device)
For IOS : App store
For Android: Google Play Store

Plaudits: None
Neighborhood: Cleveland Park
The Setup
With a new chef and a revamped menu in tow, Official Co-Writer/Fiancee of DCWD Texas and I were invited to sample the changes at Cleveland Park's Pulpo.
The Vibe
Pulpo sits in the former Tackle Box space on Connecticut, a space that holds a dear place in our hearts, since this was one of the first spots we ever went to together, back when Texas was still just an official Friend of the blog. Since the restaurants turned over a year ago, Pulpo hasn't done much to change the physical architecture of the space, save for replacing a few picnic-style tables with more high-end group settings. The two-level exposed-ceiling, refurbished-warehouse feel remains. Instead, the shift has come in decor: a fresh coat of red and yellow paint, a few portraits of the octopus logo on the walls, and what was once the raw bar has been turned into an ice bucket for cold sherry storage.
The Food
Two soups started our meal, both described as gazpacho, though neither hewing towards the tomato base the name might portend. The first was a watermelon gazpacho, bits of chopped up watermelon and tomato in a long-and-thin bowl, topped off with housemade ricotta and some basil. The second was perhaps an even further departure from the standard: an asparagus gazpacho, centered by a saffron soft-boiled egg and black caviar. Of the two, the watermelon was the far superior, with a tartness to each bite that I quite enjoyed (though Texas thought it was a bit acid heavy). Bites that blended the ricotta did a much better job of mellowing the dish out, and made the whole affair a good refreshing start to the meal. On the other hand, the asparagus one is perhaps the definition of the word "interesting." The dish's concept blends three incredibly strong flavors (asparagus, egg, caviar) which results in a forward flavor of salt. Again, for both of us, our thought on the soup was "this is intriguing, we've never had this before, not sure I would need to order it again."
The dishes came fast and furious after that, in sets of two. Round two brought us a plate of bacon brussels sprouts, and a chorizo pate atop an avocado mousse among pickled cauliflower. Our server proudly proclaimed that the bacon brussels sprouts is a dish that had survived the menu purge, a popular dish that frequently populates customers' orders and Yelp reviews. Still, he admits that the recipe itself is constantly tinkered with, meaning the blackened and dressed sprouts we received were different than the more-heavily-battered version of yore. The dish is good, with a strong char taste that's quite enjoyable. The variable here is the size of the sprout; smaller ones are more cooked through and are softer than the larger ones, resulting in perhaps an even textural finish. Really, this is mostly only a concern for those who like their sprouts one way or the other, but since Texas and I are split on that spectrum, the bowl is eagerly finished.
As for the chorizo pate, they arrive as inch-long cubes and are wonderful bits packed with flavor. The avocado mousse and cauliflower seemed secondary here, and added little to the pate, but the overall feeling on this dish was a pleasant one.
Our next set was a plate of ropa vieja, shredded beef atop a bed of black beans and tostones; as well as a basket of chicharrones with garlic aioli. The ropa vieja, a traditional Spanish dish, is brilliant and our favorite entree of the evening. The meat was a bit drier than perhaps we had expected, but was packed with spice and when mixed with the beans and crunchy tortillas bits below, was a wonderful textural mix that recalled a friendly homemade meal.
On the flip side, the chicharonnes (or perhaps as you know them, pork rinds) were reminiscent of more grab-and-go affairs. Light, airy, and with a hint of piquant, these were quite snackable and would make for perfect bar food, though perhaps not something to be regularly ordered for a dinner.
Our last round was a bit of seafood: a plate of sea scallops with blistered padron peppers and "angry" popcorn atop a sweetcorn puree; and the restaurant's eponymous octopus prepared with quinoa, olives, oranges, and parsley. Our server had noted that the menu itself, though recently redesigned, was still in a constant state of fine-tuning, and much like the asparagus gazpacho, the scallops pointed to that. To wit, the scallops themselves were wonderfully seared, and when taken together with the peppers was a fairly traditional, fairly savory bite. But the popcorn here confused us: dusted with a dash of heat, they were again "interesting," but we were unclear on their place in the large concept of the dish.
The octopus (the menu's central feature, given the name of the restaurant) was also interesting, but in a better way. The bits of octopus were rendered much differently than in other establishments, resulting in a less chewy, more tender bite. The accompaniments could have punched it all up a bit more, but the dish as a whole was nice.
Our last dish was also perhaps our favorite of the night: a take on tres leches with a layers of angel food cake mixed with goat cheese frosting, dulce de leche, a sheep's milk foam, blueberries, and crumble. For both of us, tres leches can verge on the edge of saccharine or overly cloying and syrupy. This was far from that: a dessert that managed to be both milky and gooey but light, one that mixed the more traditional hints of caramel with mellowing flavors of goat cheese. One of the better desserts we've had this year.
The Verdict
Still evolving even after the recent menu change, so some of the dishes are still a work in progress. But there are some wonderful bites to be had here.

text: Folks traveling along Main Street in Machias may have seen something unusual on side of the road. As Meghan Hayward tells us, they were getting some laughs, but also helping a good cause. " Turkey, carrot, potato, pea." All the food items for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner. And all were on hand in Machias trying to persuade folks to donate turkeys. " We decided we wanted to have a little fun with it. Give people another reason to donate to this."Susan Farley of the Washington Hancock Community Agency says the need is huge. "It's a serious thing that unfortunately too many people face everyday." It's the sixth year for the turkey-a-thon. The turkeys and donations will be divided among the 11 food pantries in Washington County. They say everyone has been generous. " We're getting a lot of people coming in, people that probably can't even afford to do it themselves. They're coming in and giving us a donation and even if they can't afford to give a whole turkey they're giving something." This year's turkey-a-thon didn't come without some surprises. " I had actually issued a challenge to the Washington County Sheriff's employees. I told them if they came up with 10 turkeys before this started that I would wear the turkey outfit for two hours on Main Street. Here I am."Everyone involved says it's about giving back. And of course having some fun. " Turkey walk."

Date of Stay: July, 2009
This was a wonderful place to stay! We have a toddler and we were able to take him to play on the playground (there were two playgrounds). The sites were clean, well kept, and the staff was friendly. The only negative mark is that we had a hard time finding where to pay for our stay. For the price, you can't beat it! We will be back.
Date of Stay: July, 2009
This place was hillbilly hell. We didn't even set up because it was scary. No fire pits or grills, difficult to park, it didn't even feel comfortable to get out. We got our money back and moved on. WE DID NOT STAY HERE.

Very scary!
This happened to me yesterday! I had my '12 Focus SE in a week ago Friday complaining about the shuddering and sputtering when accelerating from stop to first gear... They said Oh Yeah, we know what that is, did a few resets, and said it may take a few days to retrain itself. It never got better. I contacted them Monday to say it was worse than ever. Now they tell me they've had a lot of issues with this model year, and they had one torn apart in the shop as we spoke trying to sort out the problem with Ford. They told me to bring it in after the hurricane and we agreed I'd be there Wednesday - said they would provide a loaner for me.
Tuesday morning I got in the car to go to work - backed out of my driveway and put the car in drive - stepped on the accelerator -- NOTHING! Then it suddenly engaged, and jumped ahead, then seemingly shifted into neutral again, then jumped into gear. I decided to drive straight to the dealer a day early - not even sure I'd make it! It was a harrowing trip. Kept shifting indiscriminately up, down, in and out of neutral, it was so bizarre! So I got to the service dept and they wanted me to take the technician for a test drive. Guess what? It drove as smooth as silk - better than it ever had done since I bought it a month ago. So frustrating.
I just copied the clutch replacement service bills from another post and emailed it to the service manager and my salesman. We'll see what happens....
Not a happy Focus owner.

The Answers - July 2000
Jarod walked into the lab. "Here are the specifications you needed Dr. Fawkes."
"Thank you Dr. Matson." Kevin said taking the folder from Jarod. "And please, call me Kevin."
"Only if you call me Jarod."
"Okay Jarod, it's a deal." Kevin said. Then he added, "Can't I convince you to stay?"
"No I can't, you shouldn't have any problems. I studied the project for two weeks. I'm absolutely sure that the specifications I gave you are correct."
"Thank you Jarod. It looks like I'm ready to put the gland in."
"Yes, as soon as someone volunteers."
"I know just the person." Kevin said.
"Who?" Jarod asked with curiosity.
July - 2001
Darien walked up the grass to his brother's grave. "Hey Kevin, sorry that I haven't been here for so long." Darien heard someone behind him, he turned around and
saw a tall man wearing jeans and a white t-shirt with blackish brown hair walking up to him. "Who are you?" Darien asked.
"I'm a friend of Kevin, or was anyway." The man replied. "I'm sorry about his death, I only found out yesterday."
"Why yesterday?" Darien asked. "Where have you been?"
"Actually, I've been everywhere."
"Who are you?" Darien asked again.
"I'm Jarod..." Jarod thought back to when he knew Kevin. After remembering what name he had used then he added, "Matson."
"How did you know Kevin?" Darien asked.
"We worked together once."
"Really?" Darien asked.
Darien extended his hand to Jarod, "My name is Darien Fawkes, I'm Kevin's brother."
"Yes I know," Jarod replied. "Kevin talked about you often."
Darien couldn't believe it, why would Kevin talk about him? He didn't even think Kevin liked him. "Funny," Darien said, "Kevin never talked about you."
"Yes I know, I helped with the Qs9300 Project. I asked him not to talk to people about me."
"But Arnaud killed all the scientists who worked on the gland."
"I left before you got there, Darien."
"But why? If you are a scientist why didn't you want people to know your name?"
"Lets just say, some old friends were trying to catch up with me. But I didn't want them to. If they would have known I was there, well I couldn't have stayed to help. I'm not just a scientist Darien."
"Then what are you?"
Darien walked into Claire's lab, "Darien where have you been? You are three hours late for your shot."
Darien walked up to Claire, "I have to talk to you now! Please Claire!" Then he grabbed her hand.
Claire stared at Darien, she could tell that something was wrong. "Sure Darien, lets go." Claire followed him but she didn't let go of his hand. They walked out of her lab and started walking down the hall.
Bobby walked out of the Official's office just in time to see Darien and Claire turn the corner.
"Aw crap!" Darien thought.
Bobby saw them holding hands, "What's up partner?"
Darien let go of Claire hand and tried to get pass Bobby. "Nothing Bobby, I just found Darien the rat sick this morning and I need Claire to help him."
"Whatever you say my friend, I'm sure holding the Keeper's hand will help your rat."
"We weren't holding hands," Claire said, "Now if you don't mind I need to go." Claire and Darien walked down the hallway, and then out of sight.
Bobby started to mumble to himself, "Weren't holding hands, yeah right. And I'm seeing things."
"I can't believe this!" Claire exclaimed. "I've tried for a year to solve this puzzle, and you say you have the solution."
No, I said I could figure it out if you give me two days." Jarod replied. "Of course I would need your help."
"What do you plan to do with the information?" Claire asked Jarod, but she was looking over at Darien.
"That would be up to you and Darien. I have no need for the information. I'll give it to you, but you have to give Darien the choice to keep working at the
Agency or not."
"Sounds good to me," Darien said looking over at Claire.
"Okay, what can you do?" Claire asked Jarod. "I can fix the gland so Darien won't have to take the counteragent anymore. Or..."
"Or what?" Darien asked.
"I can take out the gland... Without killing you."
Darien looked over at Jarod, "Why would you do this for me?"
"Because I owe you."
"Owe me for what?" Darien asked.
"I could have stopped Arnaud, the gland wouldn't have had the side effect of quicksilver madness."
"You would have been killed, and my brother would still be dead."
"But you wouldn't have had this problem," Jarod replied.
"No maybe not, but I'd have your blood on my hands."
"I'm sorry about your brother Darien,"
"It's not your fault Jarod. Don't feel like it is."
"So will you help me?" Jarod asked Claire.
Claire looked over at Darien, "Yes I will do whatever I can to help you and Darien."
Darien sat down in the chair while Claire walked over to the refrigerator. "So what will you do?" Darien asked her.
"I don't know Darien, but I don't think we should talk about it here at the Agency."
"Right, sorry." Darien replied rolling up his sleeve "You never know."
"Here we are," Claire said pulling a syringe of counteragent out of the refrigerator. She walked over to Darien and wrapped a rubber cord around his arm.
Then she picked up the syringe of counteragent and put it in his arm. Darien flinched. "Sorry, I know it hurts. But maybe..."
"Yes, maybe."
The door opened and Bobby walked in. "Hey partner, hey Keepie. How's the rat doing?"
"Doing better, it had food poisoning." Claire said.
"That's great!" Bobby said. "I mean great that it's doing better, not that it had food poisoning."
"I understood what you meant Bobby." Darien replied, getting out of the chair. "We have Monday though Wednesday off, right?" Darien asked Bobby.
"Yeah, unless something comes up." Bobby replied.
"Thank you." Darien said leaving the room.
"Jarod?" Darien asked as he walked into his apartment, "Jarod?" he repeated.
"I'm right here," Jarod replied.
Darien walked over to the kitchen table where Jarod was sitting down drinking a cup of coffee. "Jarod, Claire and I were talking and we decided not to tell people what's going on."
"Why?" Jarod asked.
"Claire has been thinking about it and she says it doesn't look like the Official would let me leave."
"Okay, I understand." Jarod replied.
"So what were you and Fawkes doing this morning?" Bobby asked.
"What do you mean?" Claire replied.
"Come on Keepie, I saw you two holding hands."
"Darien already told you, Darien The Rat was sick."
"Okay so his rat was sick, that doesn't mean holding hands will help the rat get better."
"I don't have to explain myself to you but... Darien walked into my lab and grabbed my hand. He told me Darien The Rat was sick and that he needed me to come with him."
"So why were you still holding hands out in the hallway? Is something going on between you and Fawkes?"
"No Bobby, nothing is going on between Darien and me. I think you are getting a little too paranoid, did you take you medicine this morning?"
"Claire should be here in about a hour with supplies. She had to pick them up away from the Agency." Darien told Jarod.
"Did you give Claire the money?"
"Yes, she was surprised by the amount, so was I."
"Don't worry about it, it was a gift from some old friends." Jarod said stirring his cup of coffee with a straw.
Darien looked down at Jarod's cup of coffee, "You stir that like you are drawing a eight."
"Yeah, it's a habit I picked up a few years ago." Jarod replied.
"Do you want to tell me about it?" Darien asked.
"About how I stir my coffee?" Jarod replied.
"You know what I mean, you act like you are running from someone."
"It's a long story," Jarod said.
"Claire won't be back for a while, and I've got time."
Claire finished picking up the supplies then she got in her SUV. She started her car and headed toward Darien's apartment.
Darien looked over at Jarod with disbelief. Jarod walked over to the computer and pulled out the DSA. He was about to put in another one when there was a knock at the door. Jarod walked over to the door and looked out the peephole. He saw Claire standing there with a box in her hand. Jarod opened the door for her and took the box.
"Thank you." Claire said. "I have a few more in my car, if you don't mind?"
Darien stood up from his place at the table. "Not a problem ." he said.
Jarod set down the box he had taken from Claire and followed Darien.
"Miss Parker," Broots said, she tuned around and looked at him.
"It's about Jarod, he left a trail. He's in Cold Springs California."
"Get the jet ready," she replied. "And find Sidney."
Sidney was sitting at his desk when Broots walked in. "We have a lead on Jarod, the jet is ready. And Miss Parker is waiting for you."
"Well, when were you going to tell me?" Asked Lyle from the corner of the room.
Broots jumped in shock, "Mr. Lyle, I didn't see you."
Darien looked at Jarod and then at Claire. Claire had the word disgust written all over her face.
"How could someone do this to a child? To anyone?" she asked with anger.
"They have done this to many people, and they still are doing this." Jarod replied. "But Sidney is not like the rest of them."
"How could you say that! He was always there."
"That's the point he took care of me. He was like a father to me." Jarod said. "I can trust him with anything."
"Is there anyone else you can trust?" Darien asked.
"Angelo, I can trust Angelo with my life." Jarod replied, "Then I can trust Miss Parker and Broots to a certain extent."
Bobby walked onto Claire's lab, "Claire," he called. There was no answer, "Claire." he said once again. Bobby walked out of Claire's lab mumbling to himself. This was the second time he had come looking for her and she wasn't here. But he knew where to check next.
Darien and Jarod were getting ready to unload the boxes. Darien walked into the kitchen where Claire was sitting down drinking a cup of coffee. "You forgot to bring the files on the gland."
"No I didn't, Eberts monitors the information coming in and going out of my computer. If I had tried to print or copy anything, the Official would have known within five minutes."
"Then how are we going to fix the problem with the gland?"
Jarod walked into the kitchen, "Why do you think I asked for two days and not one."
"You can actually do it without notes?" Darien asked.
"Yes, we can," Jarod said looking over at Claire.
"The jet lands in ten minutes," Lyle said.
"We'll split up," Miss Parker replied, "Broots will go with Lyle. Sidney will come with me." "Oh great!" Broots thought, "I get to be with the psychopathic freak."
"So where do you want us to set up the operating table?" Darien asked.
"In the living room," Claire replied, then she added. "Could you bring the boxes in here?" Just then someone knocked on the door.
"Who could that be?" Jarod asked.
"I don't know," Darien said pushing the boxes behind the counter out of sight. Then he walked back into the living room standing nest to Jarod.
Claire walked over to the door and looked out the peephole. "Its Bobby," She said.
"Aw crap!" Darien whispered. "Jarod?"
"Sit on the couch," Jarod sat down and Darien sat down next to him, then he quicksilvered Jarod.
"Amazing!" Jarod whispered.
"Don't talk." Claire whispered then she opened the door. "Hello Bobby," she said.
"Hey there Keepie, I thought you'd be here."
"Why is that?" Darien asked.
"Because your rat is sick, remember?" Bobby said sarcastically, "Okay, no one fools Bobby Hobbes, what's going on?" He asked as he walked into Darien's apartment.
"Go ahead and come in," Darien said, "And yes, Darien the rat was sick. He's doing better now, but he needs some medication."
"I don't believe you," Bobby said.
"And why not?" Darien asked.
"I think you two are dating and you're trying to hide it."
"Why would we do that?" Claire asked.
"Because you were holding hands!"
"Bobby I already explained that to you." She responded. "Nothing is going on between Darien and I."
"Something is up, I can feel it." Bobby said.
"Bobby why can't you just believe me?" Darien asked.
Bobby didn't say anything for a few minutes. He was thinking of all the times Darien didn't have to believe him but did. Even when it didn't make sense, Darien had stuck by him. "Okay partner, if you say nothing's going on I believe you."
"Thank you." Darien said.
"Hey do you mind if I stay awhile? I don't really have anything to do." Bobby said heading over to the couch to sit down.
"No!" Darien and Claire said at the same time.
"Actually, I was just leaving if you want to walk me to my car?" Claire said to Bobby.
"Okay Keepie," Bobby said then he looked over at Darien. "See you later partner."
"Bobby and Claire walked out of Darien's apartment and closed the door. As soon as Darien couldn't hear them talking he unquicksilvered Jarod. Darien looked at his watch, "Aw crap! I had you quicksilvered for fifthteen minutes."
"Will you make it until Claire gets back?"
"I don't think so," He said looking down at his tattoo, "Odds are I'll try to kill you. When it happens I need you to stop me."
"So are you going back to the lab?" Bobby asked Claire.
"Yes I need to get some mediation for Darien the rat. And then I need to write a report for the Official."
"Okay Keepie, I'll see you tomorrow." Bobby said as he headed for his van.
Claire grabbed a syringe of counteragent for Jarod's tests. She looked around her lab, then walked out into the hallway.
Darien grabbed the back of his head "Aw crap! Where is Claire?"
Jarod looked over at him, "Already?" he asked.
Darien grabbed his neck again, but this time when he looked at Jarod with red eyes "Call Claire and tell her to get here fast!"
Jarod went over to the phone and dialed Claire's number.
Claire's phone started to ring, "Claire speaking,"
"Hey Keepie, I just got off the phone with the Official. He said that he doesn't have a report for you to write... What's going on?"
"Bobby I don't have time to talk..." Bobby cut her off.
"Is something wrong with Darien?"
"I already told you nothing is going on."
"Yeah but you lied about the report. That makes me wonder what else you are lying to me about?"
"Bobby you just have to trust me." Claire said then she hung up her phone.
"The line is busy." Jarod told Darien.
"Try again," Darien replied.
Jarod dialed Claire's cell phone again, this time he got a answer.
"Bobby I told you, I'm really busy."
"Claire this is..." Jarod looked over at Darien, "I think she hung up on me."
Claire's phone started to ring, she answered it. "Bobby I told you, I'm really busy."
"Claire this is..." Was all she heard before her cell phone battery died. At least she knew who had called. She had recognized the voice as Jarod's...
Jarod looked over at Darien, this time his eyes were
almost crimson. "Darien it's looking really bad now."
"I know." Darien said as he stood up.
"What are you doing?" Jarod asked.
Darien ran at Jarod but he moved just in time. Darien went crashing into the door. "Darien you don't want to do this!"
Darien got back up and ran at Jarod again. This time Jarod was ready. He punched Darien in the face. The force of the impact knocked Darien to the ground.
"Why did you do that? You're spoiling my fun." Darien said wiping the blood from his lip.
Claire pulled into Darien's apartment parking lot. She reached under her seat and pulled put a syringe of counteragent. Then she got out of her SUV and headed up to Darien's apartment.
Darien got back up and punched Jarod in the gut. "There, now we're even," he said with a wicked smile. Darien swung another punch at Jarod, but Jarod blocked it and hit Darien with a punch of his own. Jarod heard someone at the door. He looked over at it. That gave Darien enough time to knock Jarod to the ground.
Claire opened the door and saw Jarod on the ground with Darien choking him. "Darien!" Claire yelled, but he didn't hear her. "Darien stop!"
Darien loosened his grip a little and looked over at Claire. Jarod saw the distraction and took it as an opportunity to punch Darien in the gut.
Claire ran over and stuck the syringe of counteragent in Darien's neck. Darien fell on Jarod Jarod checked his pulse. "He'll be fine," Jarod said, "He's just unconscious." Jarod pushed Darien off of him and stood up. He dragged Darien over to the couch and put him on it.
"I'm sorry!" Claire said.
"It's okay Claire, but please tell me you brought more then one syringe of counteragent?"
"Sorry, I guess I should go back to the Agency and get another one?"
"That would help," Jarod said. Claire turned around to leave, "Oh and Claire, thank you!"
"Did you find anything?" Lyle asked Miss Parker, "He was looking for a scientist."
"This note in his room,"
Lyle took the note from her hand and read it. "Kevin is dead, find his brother." Lyle looked over at Broots, "Find out who this Kevin was, and then find
his brother."
"Okay Mr. Lyle." Broots replied.
Jarod was working on some papers that Claire had written about the gland from memory. He was about to check on Darien when he heard a knock on the door. He walked
over to it and looked out the peephole. Jarod opened the door, "Hello Bobby,"
"Who are you?" Bobby replied.
"I'm Jarod,"
Bobby looked and saw Darien on the couch, he pulled out his gun and pointed it at Jarod. " Who are you? And what did you do to my partner?"
"He went into quicksilver madness and asked Me to stop him." Jarod said walking backwards.
"Did you shoot him?"
"Why would I shoot him?" Jarod asked in puzzlement,
Bobby walked over to Darien and checked for a pulse. He looked at Darien's cut lip, then at the bruise on Jarod's face. "He told me once that if he ever tried
to hurt someone while in quicksilver madness that he wanted me to shoot him."
"He will be awake any minute if you want to wait. He'll tell you who I am."
"Yeah, I'll wait."
"So you and Darien are really good friends?"
"Yeah, he kinda looks up to me as a roll model." Bobby said putting his gun away.
"Claire opened Darien's apartment door, "I'm back..." she stopped in mid sentence when she saw Jarod, Darien, and Bobby sitting on the couch talking.
Darien looked up at Claire, "He had to know sooner or later."
And why later?" Bobby asked, "You could have trusted me in the beginning."
"I know," Darien replied, "I wanted to tell you in the beginning but..."
"But what?" Bobby asked.
"It would have caused more problems on my part."
"What do you mean?" Claire asked closing the door and walking over to the couch where Darien, Bobby and Jarod were sitting. Jarod was the first to stand up. He offered his
seat to Claire. She sat down.
"I don't know if I will stay with the Agency."
"Why?" Bobby asked.
"I'm not cut out for this job, in fact I wouldn't have even taken it if I wasn't being blackmailed. Im just a regular person, not someone who works for the good
of man. I'm just a government secret weapon, and I don't want to be that anymore."
Wednesday Morning.
"We did it Darien!" Claire exclaimed running into Darien's room. She pushed him, "Darien wake up!"
Darien rolled over, "What?" he said in a groggy voice.
"We did it!" she repeated.
He opened his eyes, "Really?"
"Yes we did it, we can give you the surgery today. We just need to know whether you want the gland fixed so you won't need counteragent or..." Claire paused, "Or the gland out of your head?"
Darien got out of his bed, "I want the first one Claire... The first one." he repeated as he walked into the bathroom.
Claire walked into the kitchen where Jarod was, "Will I be helping you with the operation?" Jarod looked up from his G4 laptop, Claire had to admit it was a beutiful Macintosh.
"I could use your help, that is if you don't mind?"
"Of course not Jarod!"
"Of course not Jarod!" Bobby repeated walking into the room. "You're not going to hold hands now are you?"
"Why would we do that?" Jarod asked.
"Couples hold hands," Claire said.
"Why?" Jarod asked.
"I guess it's to show that they are a couple." Claire said.
"Not like you can't tell already, they are always all over each other." Bobby said
"Well why would you think we are a couple? Besides I already have a girlfriend." Jarod said.
"I didn't, I was just being sarcastic because Claire and Fawkes were holding hands earlier."
"For the last time Bobby, we were not holding hands!"
Darien got out of the shower and then got dressed, he opened the bathroom door and walked into the kitchen. Claire, Jarod, and Bobby were talking. "What is going
on?" he asked.
"Oh nothing much, we were just talking about you and Claire dating." Bobby said.
"We're not dating!" Darien and Claire said simotaniously.
Jarod just smiled, then he asked. "Are you ready Darien?"
"Yeah, but do me a favor?"
"What?" Jarod asked.
"While you're operating on me don't let Bobby touch anything."
Jarod looked puzzled, "Why?"
"Did you find anything Broots?" Miss Parker asked.
"No, ever sinse we got back to the Center there has been nothing but dead ends. It's almost like Jarod left the note on purpose, but erased everything that had to do with it."
Miss Parker looked at the note on her desk sitting in a ziplock bag. "There has to be something else, there always is."
"Not this time, I don't think he wanted us to find him. It's like he really wanted to disappear, and make sure we wouldn't know where."
"What could be that important?" Miss Parker asked. Not really to Broots, not really to anyone.
Darien opened his eyes and looked around. He touched the back of his head, "What did you guys do to my hair?"
Claire walked into the room, "We had to shave it so we could operate."
"Yeah I knew that, but did you have to shave it this short?"
"Don't worry partner, it will grow back." Bobby said.
Jarod walked into the room, "Hi Darien,"
"How did everything go?" Darein asked.
"Every thing went fine..." Jarod paused, "Darien you need to decide what you are going to do."
"I already have," Darien replied. "I think we all need to sit down and talk."
Thursday Morning.
Claire walked into the Official's office, "Sir I need to talk to you."
"What is it?" The Official asked.
"Darien came to me yesterday and asked me to remove the gland."
"Well sir, I did it."
"What do you mean?" Claire pulled a jar out of her purse and put it on the Official's desk, "That's not what I think it is? Is it?"
"Yes sir, it is." Claire said, then she reached back into her purse and pulled out some papers. She set them on the desk, "After pulling out the gland I found
the problem for quicksilver madness, and I fixed it."
"And what happened to Fawkes?" The Official asked.
Claire waited a second, and with a tear in her eye. "He died sir."
"And his body?" The Official asked.
"It was cremated, the funeral is set for tomorrow at 11:00 a.m."
"Does Hobbes know?"
"No sir, I thought you might want to tell him." By now Claire was in tears.
"No Claire, I think you should tell him." The Official handed Claire a tissue.
"Yes sir." Claire said while leaving his office.
Friday at the Funeral.
Bobby stepped up to the grave with the urn in his hands. "Darien was the friend I always wanted. And when I finally got that friend, he became the brother I never had. I know how much you wanted to be with your family Darien. And I'm glad that is where you are now. I will wait for the day to see you again, save me a seat partner." Bobby poured the ashes in the grave, then he stepped back with tears in his eyes.
Claire walked over and picked up a small handful of dirt. "I hope you know how sorry I am for taking your life Darien." She bent down to the grave, tears flowing down her cheeks. "I really liked you Darien." she said in a whisper, she let the dirt fall out of her hand. Then she stood up and looked at Bobby, "Can we leave?"
"Yeah, sure thing Keep." Bobby said, then he excourted her to her SUV.
"That was beuitful," Darien said to Jarod. " But I just have one question, did Bobby call me Darien?"
"Yeah, I think he did." Jarod replied.
Darien thought to himself for a second and then said. "So where do we go from here?"
"How does Los Vagas sound?" Jarod said handing Darien a newspaper.
Darien read the headline, "Woman loses memory after falling three stories."
"Miss Parker!" Broots exclimed.
"What is it Broots?"
"I have a lead on Jarod, he's in Los Vegas."
"Tell Sidney," Miss Parker said, "Oh and Broots, make sure Lyle isn't there this time."

I give Albert Allen Smith my highest endorsement in his profession as an attorney. I had three major dealings with Mr. Smith. All were in regard to my brother. First he guided me to become my brother's legal guardian in probate court. Then he supplied the written answers to another court's questionnaire concerning my brother's financial matters. Lastly Mr. Smith helped immensely after my brother died with both probate court and the bank.
I trust him for four reasons. First he spoke succinctly. Secondly he acted promptly. For example he answered the court's 20 plus financial questions in less than 30 minutes. Smith did not say this is what we need to do. No. He just performed immediately. Third he did not present arrogance. He never implied that he was smarter than the system. Fourth Mr. Smith led in a good clean manner. He was professional but reassuring. Albert Allen Smith has an ease and a command at the same time.
Again I unequivocally give him my highest grade.
Posted by Louisa
Mr. Smith handled a personal injury case for my daughter with outstanding skill and professionalism. While driving to work, my daughter was hit by a truck that drove left of center. The truck company tried to stall proceedings and deny liability. Mr. Smith knew how to cut through the red tape and get things done. This accident was the biggest legal issue my family had ever faced, and thanks to Mr. Smith, had a very positive outcome. Mr. Smith is truly caring and has outstanding intellect, knowledge and skill that made all the difference.
Posted by Glynis
Mr. Smith has handled 2 cases for me (1personal injury and 1 worker's comp) and I have had wonderful success with both. I was injured on the job as a professional portrait photographer with a major chain in 2008 and had orthroscopic surgery as a result. The settlement I received was beyond what I had expected due to pre-existing conditions already in my knee. In August of 2010, I was in a car accident. The other vehicle was at fault, but the driver was not cited for some reason. I won the case and got a larger settlement than I expected as well. Mr. Smith met with me during both cases and laid out how everything works and what I could expect. He explained the "impairment rating" for my first case and that was important. He sent me to excellent doctors and kept me well informed. He's very personable and when meeting my 10 year old daughter, really made a very good impression on her without being over the top. He makes tough cases easy to deal with and is very reasonable in what he expects from you.
Endorsements from fellow lawyers are an important consideration for many when selecting the right attorney. Be the first to endorse your colleague!

Reviews for this host's other properties
Margaryta is really a very good host. And very generous with information available. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. It is well located. We have traveled all over the city on foot. In addition the apartment is a stone's throw from all the pubs. Beer lovers will attic location. In summary I strongly recommend of sleeping in margaryta.
Margaryta est vraiment une tres bonne hote. Genereuse en information et tres disponible. L appartement est tres propre et confortable. Il est bien situe. Nous avons parcouru toute la ville a pied. De plus l appartement est a deux pas de tous les pubs. Les amateurs de biere seront combles de son emplacement. En resume je recommande vivement de sejourner chez margaryta.
Small but very nice apartment near the city center. Except for some minor details, like only one towel for two persons over four nights and mostly russian sat-tv, everything was perfect for us.
Margaryta is very nice and she is willing to help you. The appartment is easy to reach by public transportations (busses, trams). It is situated in a good and quite area. The appartment is clean and has a basic needs for the guests.
Eventhough it was winter, we don't have any single probleem, as the heater worked very good.
Alles super!
We were greeted warmly, received information about all relevant issues (supermarket, metro, etc.) and a map.
Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen, erhielten Infos über alle wichtigen Punkte (Supermarkt, Metro, etc.) und einen Stadtplan.
The apartment is very spacious and very nice. Very good transport links to public transport (tram right outside the door), the main railway station, only a maximum of 5 minutes. Wenceslas Square is also just 5 minutes away. The agency is very helpful (eg, to find secure parking garage). Only those already raised by the Vorbesuchern bird droppings on the "smoking balcony" I find unbearable. I did not have a coffee maker (kettle was available)
Die Wohnung ist sehr großzügig eingerichtet und sehr schön. Sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung an öffentliche Verkehrsmittel (Straßenbahn direkt vor der Haustür), der Hauptbahnhof nur maximal 5 Minuten entfernt. Wenzelplatz ebenfalls nur 5 Minuten entfernt. Die Agentur ist sehr hilfsbereit (z.B. sicheres Parkhaus zu finden). Lediglich den bereits von den Vorbesuchern angesprochene Vogelkot auf dem "Raucherbalkon" finde ich unerträglich. Mir fehlte auch eine Kaffeemaschine (Wasserkocher war aber vorhanden)
We had a good time in the apartment. From the inside its clean, the furniture is modern and tasty but still very cosy - and the apartment as a whole is quite big. Only small deficits, like a slightly instable doorknob. All in all I still really recommend this apartment, esepcially for the cheap price, its awesome.
Spacious apartment with nice restaurants within walking distance. 7 minutes walk to Wencelas Square is not realistic. It is about 7 minutes walk to the nearest metro. I'm not a discerning traveler, but a clean bathroom very important to me. Unfortunately, this was not the case. The shower drain was clogged, causing the water (and dirt!) Do not run away and the bathroom after showering five minutes under water. I tried to host this call, but received no contact. Also my text messages are not answered. The bathroom dirty and bad service will make sure that I can not recommend this property. Too bad, because if the problem was neatly solved, I would have been very satisfied.
Ruim appartement met leuke restaurantjes op loopafstand. 7 minuten lopen naar het Wencelasplein is niet realistisch. Het is zo'n 7 minuten lopen naar de dichtstbijzijnde metro.
Ik ben niet zo'n kritische reiziger, maar een schone badkamer vind ik erg belangrijk. Helaas was dit niet het geval. Het doucheputje was verstopt, waardoor het water (en vuil!) niet wegliep en de badkamer na vijf minuten douchen onder water stond. Ik heb geprobeerd om de host hierover te bellen, maar kreeg geen contact. Ook mijn smsjes zijn niet beantwoord. De vieze badkamer en de slechte service zorgen er voor dat ik deze accommodatie niet kan aanraden. Jammer, want wanneer het probleem netjes was opgelost, zou ik erg tevreden zijn geweest.
Spacious apartment close to the center, everything is walking in Prague. Large bathroom and bedroom. Great accommodation in a nice area of Prague.
Ruim appartement vlakbij het centrum, alles is te lopen in Praag. Grote badkamer en slaapkamer. Prima accommodatie in een mooie buurt van Praag.
The apartment is located in a quiet street not far (about 15 minutes walk) from the center. It is quite OK for two people who do not spend much time at home. Everything was clean and the kitchen facilities were also sufficient.
Die Wohnung liegt in einer ruhigen Strasse nicht weit (ca. 15 min Fußweg) von der Altstadt. Sie ist ganz OK für zwei Personen, die nicht viel Zeit zu Hause verbringen. Alles war sauber und die Küchenausstattung war auch ausreichend.

SHANGHAI, Thursday, June 14. -- The most extraordinary, and even laughable, anti-climax in the history of China's troublous dealings with foreign powers was reached yesterday afternoon when Eimei Kuramoto, the Japanese Vice Consul at Nanking, missing since Friday, was found wandering on the slopes of Purple Mountain on the outskirts of Nanking between the ancient Ming Tombs and the modern Sun Yat-sen mausoleum.

Ripoff Report
Mallu Cafe10181 Verree Road Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA
Mallu Cafe Serves Stale Leftovers, Write Fake Rave Reviews for Itself Philadelphia Pennsylvania
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Mallu Cafe often serves stale, off-tasting leftovers, but falsely claims that all of their food is freshly prepared. Mallu Cafe's food usually tastes too bland or too strong the few times that it is fresh. Mallu Cafe survives via a plethora of phony rave reviews that it posts for itself at myriad consumer review websites, such as Google's and Yelp's. Mallu Cafe spams out many of the legitimate negative reviews. Mallu Cafe's bogus posts falsely accuse negative review writers to be competitors while simultaneously and deceptively claiming to be genuine customer reviews.
As proof of my contentions, note that most of Mallu Cafe's positive reviews have identical grammatical errors, were written in bunches at around the same times, and heap the same faux praise. Those attributes suggest that one person (the owner?) wrote most if not all of the positive reviews. My friends and I are actual consumers who were extremely dissatisfied with the food, service, and high prices at Mallu Cafe. Please do not fall for Mallu Cafe's scam of fake rave online reviews!
