Our customer reviews for Novotel Nice Arenas Aeroport
Reviews collected from customers who booked on AccorHotels.com
The hotel is close to the airport and convenient to everything. The staff is very friendly and accomodating. The rooms were clean and spacious for an airport hotel. The bed is comfortable and sheets are clean.
Very nice hotel and staff. We also liked the restaurant. Very convenient when leaving early in the morning. You just have to cross the street. We will absolutely recommend this hotel - and in general the Novotel chain
Basically what you would expect from an airport hotel and Novotel. Some staff where great other just doing their job. Food OK but not the best I've had in a Novotel by some way. Bathroom shower sprays out of the bath leaving a very wet floor. Bed were very comfortable and no problem with noise so a good nights sleep.
Dear guest, Thank you for your comment on Tripadvisor. I have taken note of the little things that bothered you and see with the different heads of service improvements we could make it. We will be pleased to welcome you again Best regards Virginie MARTIN
Staff was friend and very help. Store my car roof box in order that I could park in their 1.8m underground parking. However, staff should have notified us that check in before 12 noon will result in additional charges. This was later removed. Very good experience - entire family was please with service and qualify of the hotel.
Great option for transit passengers travelling via Nice Airport. Very convenient, locates just in couple minutes from the main Terminal. Also the beaches are not far away so if you have few spare hours you can enjoy the sunshine and waves. Make sure you do not miss the flight though :)
The staff I encountered at the front desk were helpful and very nice at the check-in and check-out. The 24 hour airport shuttle service departing every 30 minutes. can't be beat. The room was clean and providing a free bottle of water was a nice touch. Too far to walk to the city center, but no more than 5 minute walk to bus line that cost 1.50 euro for the trip. Definitely will stay at this Novotel again.
I stayed in this hotel on 2/7/2015 for one night as I had an early flight on the following morning. It was a pretty good hotel with convenient location. The staff was very very friendly during my check-in process and was extremely helpful with good travel information. But I had a bad experience during the check-out, which was handled by a different lady staff. She mixed up my room number with another guest, Immediately I told her that it was a mistake as the bill was for a completely different guest of different last name. But she did not reverse the charge so I got duplicate transactions on my credit card which I had to call explain the situation. My credit card company was efficiently handled the duplicate transaction. This type of mistake should be avoided and disappointment of the service despite an excellent first impression.
I found the staff at Novotel Nice Arenas Aeroport friendly and helpful. The elevator going to the guest's floors requires a room key; both elevators were having difficulty reading not only my key but the keys of a couple other guests. NEED TO FIX. There is a shuttle to and from the airport Terminals 1 and 2; at the airport go to the information booth and use the courtesy white phone to call the hotel desk. The shuttle comes in about 10 minutes. There aren't any up scale restaurants around the hotel and the hotel restaurant doesn't start serving until 7:00 p.m. They have a 5:00 a.m. breakfast offered; however, if your flight is between 6 and 7 in the morning there is little time. Hotel may consider offering breakfast starting at 4:30 a.m. (It is an airport hotel.)
Dear guest, Thank you for choosing my hotel for your stay in Nice. I am sorry to read that the elevators did not correctly worked. I informed my technical service. We will be pleased to welcome you again. Best regards Eric Mondain - General Manager

Date of Stay: August, 2011
We stayed here for 1 week and totally fell in love with the campground. The park was clean, staff was very friendly, and it is in a great location. Trash was picked up all day long, so the campsites were not cluttered with trash bags. The bathrooms were relatively spotless, taking into consideration the location next to the pool and being used all day long. The park is about 20 minutes from Lewes and Cape Henelopen, about 25-30 minutes from the Rehoboth Beach and boardwalk. There were plenty of campground activities all week long. The moonbounce was a great hit with my daughters who were also equally excited about the playground. The playground was shaded in the late afternoon and evening hours. Lack of shade is an issue and our awning was no help in the afternoon sun. However, we can change that by changing site location next time. The sites and roads were a bit dusty, but you were encouraged to water down your site to cut back the dust. Our camper did not need to be releveled, as the site pad is nicely packed now. We will definitely be returning!
Date of Stay: June, 2011
This was our 5th year camping here for our annual vacation. Once again we loved it. The campground is clean and staff is friendly. Staff is transient so they aren't familiar with the area. The pools and water slides are great fun, even for adults. The one thing we love is that they have saved a pool for adults only. Our group is already talking about next year's trip.

Don't forget to enjoy the coast, since South Holland has many lovely coastal towns like Scheveningen and Noordwijk.
Picturesque cities
Many famous painters were inspired by the beauty of South Holland. The Hague, for instance, boasts the well-known Panorama Mesdag. Vermeer created a number of paintings depicting street life in Delft and Leiden is also known for a famous painter, to wit Rembrandt van Rijn.

Kijkduin and Katwijk are two other coastal towns worth a visit and many beach clubs are open all year.

The train service between the cities is excellent as well, with most routes taking less than 30 minutes. If you want to visit one of the coastal towns or Keukenhof, you can travel by one of the great bus lines.

Census Workers Unable to Access 'Housing Underworld,' Some Say
As the city plans to challenge what it says are low census numbers by showing that many of the thousands of vacancies – namely in Brooklyn and Queens – were in fact occupied homes, some residents in those areas spoke of an impenetrable "housing underworld" that census workers could not reach.
Officials appeared blind sided last month when Census 2010 figures placed the city's population at 8.175 million rather than the 8.4 million count consistent with earlier estimates, which puts millions of dollars in federal funding for New York City at risk. Senator Chuck Schumer called the figure "baffling" and Mayor Michael Bloomberg said it "doesn't make sense at all."
Through the bureau's Count Question Resolution process, Bloomberg plans to challenge the census data, and a number of housing advocates and community groups -- some of which stand to lose funding from a low census count -- seem to think workers were unable to reach some residents.
Standing on 74th Street, in the heart of Queens' Little India, Afreen Alam took note of the crowds in Jackson Heights -- bigger, she said, than anything she observed 20 years ago, when she moved to the neighborhood.
"We saw three buses pass and every bus had people standing," said Alam, who works at Chhaya Community Development Corporation, which caters mostly to South Asians in the neighborhood. "And they're going into the neighborhood where it's purely residential, not commercial. So people are getting on here, going home, standing-room only buses and the subways are just as crowded."
Census workers, said Alam, were incapable of penetrating the "housing underworld."
"People who double up, people who are afraid to talk because of the documentation status or even social stigma, even if you are, documented but you can't afford to live in an apartment by yourself, you have three other families living with you," she said.
"I think census failed to capture that hidden population," she said. "Unfortunately they will remain hidden."
The Bloomberg administration's challenge is to show that the Census Bureau missed people and marked those apartments as vacant.
According to the census bureau, the number of vacancies in the Little India census tract went up by 114 percent, and 221 percent in the adjacent tract, near the BQE.
The census bureau said in time it will examine the various allegations of undercounts from across the country.
Tony Farthing, the head of the bureau's New York office, defended the process and said a year ago the census bureau had a great working relationship with city officials. He said there were 30,000 census workers across the five boroughs, and 12,000 partner groups.
"At least in my eyes -- and this is my third census here -- we had the strongest core of people that we've ever had to do a census here in New York," Farthing said.
Farthing said a home wasn't declared vacant until census workers had made as many as six visits and then consulted with the building super, the managing agent or neighbors.
"We're relentless on this," he said. "We're trying to determine if someone lives in an apartment, for example. We're going to try, if we have the opportunity, we try above, whoever lives above, we try who lives below, we try who lives on either side of the unit."
Even with the increased vacancies, census figures still show that New York has a tight housing market. The vacancy rate in that Jackson Heights census tract may have doubled, but only 3.6 percent of its housing is empty -- not necessarily something that would be visible to the naked eye. Farthing also points out that a major recession just took place, and that many New Yorkers may have up and left town.
Some of them may have decamped to the suburbs. Megan Tennermann, the demographic analyst for Orange County, said her county grew by 30,000 people, nine percent over its 2000 count.
"I believe that between five and ten thousand of those people are transplants from New York City," she said.
Although some city officials have said census workers got lazy last year -- or were involved in an "operational breakdown" in the words of city planner Joe Salvo -- some community leaders say otherwise.
"I think they really made a serious, all-out effort," said Paul J.Q. Lee, a Mott Street resident and president of the Chinatown Civic Association. "They did a number of activities, they had groupings, a lot of Chinese press was involved. They did a full-court press and I was personally satisfied with it."
Lee's problem wasn't with the effort of census workers, but with the bureau's ability to win the trust of immigrants. Despite all the assurances given to immigrants in the community, he said many of them remained suspicious and weren't willing to come forward.
"People didn't believe they had the protections," said Lee. "We went in there, [said] they couldn't be deported, caught, their information was secure. Just couldn't persuade 'em. That's my feeling, that's why the count wasn't that good."
According to Glenn Magpantay, an attorney with the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund, immigrants refused to come forward due to fears stemming from post-9/11 legislation.
"We sought, more than a year ago, assurances from the attorney general, that census information would be kept confidential even in light of the US Patriot Act," said Magpantay. "We never got a response to that. We got a letter from the attorney general saying he doesn't think so. That's not the same as a legal opinion."
But census officials note that once the city submits its Count Question Resolution application, they won't be sending census takers into those neighborhoods again. They will instead rely on existing census records, as well as materials submitted by the city.
But if past results are any indication, the city is in for a tough fight. After the last census, in 2000, Count Question Resolution resulted in a net addition of just 2700 people -- and that's for the entire country.

Striking members of the United Food and Commercial Workers picketed outside Raley's stores again Monday. They went on strike after marathon negotiations with the company failed on Saturday, and the company imposed a new contract.
The UFCW says Raley's has tried to take away pension and healthcare benefits with its latest contract offer.
Raley's says only wage freezes and the elimination of Sunday and holiday pay are on the table as cost-cutting measures.
Raley's claims a little more than half of its 7500 unionized employees did not go to work today. The United Food and Commercial Workers' Union has not responded to requests for a figure.
Employees have been without a contract since October of last year.
No further talks between the company and the union are scheduled.

The typical asking rate per listing is in the $10's per square foot per year. The Chittenden County region is going through a a boost in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate increased $2 per sqft per year. That's a 11% rise in rent.
In the last 90 days, 107 listings have been posted online, so you'll want to check back regularly for new listings. About 1% of the available leases in the Chittenden County are subleases, so you will probably have to focus your search on direct office leases. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet on the market, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around 2,450 sqft. Most buildings in this market are close to 2 floors. Most buildings in this area were built in 1975 and are Class A.

Searle Files for Bankruptcy Protection
Posted on January 12, 2009WWD reports that Searle has filed for bankruptcy. The upscale coat and women's outerwear retailer has several locations in Manhattan and is evaluating whether or not they will need to close any stores.
Crain's New York says Searle is seeking protectoin from over 100 creditors. Searle's website is currently running sales with offers of up to 80% off."The debtors have been adversely impacted by the recent economic downturn," Searle Blatt, president of both debtors, said in an affidavit. "Sales have dropped dramatically over the past 12 months. The holiday season, historically the high point of the year, did not reverse the trend, and the debtors were forced to reorganize." Blatt said the debtors intend to continue operating their businesses.
"Everything is being reevaluated, but we haven't made any decisions yet," said Rick Weinstein, Searle's director of sales and marketing. Asked whether Searle would consider shedding any of its locations, Weinstein said: "We are considering everything."

Arsène Wenger believes it is "too early to say" whether Manchester United can complete a clean sweep of the major trophies this season.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side beat Tottenham on penalties to lift the Carling Cup on Sunday and, with the Club World Cup already in the bag, there is much speculation over whether they can win an unprecedented 'quintuple'.
United are firm favourites to retain their Premier League crown - they lead Chelsea by seven points with a game in hand - and are still in contention for the Champions League and FA Cup. Wenger acknowledges that the champions are in a strong position, but he knows that could change.
"[The quintuple] is not realistic because it has not been done," Wenger told Arsenal TV Online.
"But for them it is still possible so you have to consider that they could be the first team to do that.
"It is open for them but I still believe it is a bit early to say that. In the Champions League, FA Cup and Premier League they look in a strong position but you never know.
"It is always done quicker in the newspapers than on the football pitch."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

There's a lot of books to choose from,
and unfortunately, they're not all good.
A good monologue book should be gender specific,
give you a lot of choices and offer a selection
of audition pieces that haven't been done a million times before.
Below are some good books to look at. You can use the search box
at the bottom of this page to find each book.
The Best Stage Monologues series
The number of monologues published
changes from year to year but since a book comes
out every year, you won't have the same audition
piece as everyone else, especially if you buy a
copy from a few year's back
(Smith & Kraus has published two monologue books each year -
one for women and one for men - since the beginning of the 1990s.)
One on One: The Best Monologues for the 21st Century
There's over 80 selections in this book so you're bound to find
something that works for you, plus they were all written
in the past decade so you can have an audition piece that's fresh.
There's one book for men and one for women.
The Ultimate Audition Book: 222 Comedy Monologues, 2 Minutes And Under
It always seems harder to find good comedic monologues than dramatic ones,
so this book will be a big help.
It has lots of choices for both men and women,
plus you won't have to worry about editing your
monologue because all the selections are under 2 minutes.
You can use the search box below to find any of these books.
Enjoy our selection of monologues.
They were all picked because we believe they are winning audition pieces
that can work wonders in the hands of a good actor or actress.

How to create your own monologue
Is there a scene you love where one character does most
of the talking and the other has one liners throughout?
See if you can cut the other character's lines to turn
the scene into a monologue. This can actually do wonders for your acting.
You'll be much more responsive if you've practiced your new soliloquy
as a scene with another actor. You can take some of the other character's
lines and make them your own. For example, if the other character says,
"I disagree", you can turn it into "You disagree?"
Make sure it makes sense, of course.
This won't work in all situations.
Don't use this technique with well-known scenes.
Some directors know plays very well and don't like actors to rewrite them.

Accreditation - Governing Bodies
Online Education-The importance of Accreditation
Accreditation is important as it legitimizes a degree, especially an online degree. Many diploma mills claim to be accredited by fake accreditation agencies or accreditation mills. Much like diploma mills, accreditation mills make it very easy for a university to earn accreditation as the school simply has to pay a fee. The rigor of the curriculum and the professors are not evaluated. Thus, the accreditation granted from an accreditation mill is completely useless.
The only legitimate regional accreditation agencies are:
- Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools
- New England Association of Schools and Colleges
- North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
- Northwestern Association of Accredited Schools
- Western Association of Schools and Colleges
- Southern Association of Colleges and Schools
The only legitimate national accreditation agencies are:
- Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools
- Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology
- Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training
- Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS)
- Distance Education and Training Council
- The Association for Biblical Higher Education
- Association of Advanced Rabbinical and Talmudic Schools
- Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada
- Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools
In addition, there are accreditation agencies based on field such as business. A school should still have national or regional accreditation in addition to professional accreditation.

We're ready… Or at least we're in the mindset to get this Kindergarten experience rolling. We took Jordan to her Kindergarten welcome last night. She had a chance to play on the playground, see old and new friends, eat ice cream and meet her new teacher.
I had a chance to email her teacher a couple of weeks ago to give her a copy of Jordan's book to bind and discuss the use of Jordan's many arms and hands. Almost immediately, new friends were asking Jordan about her arm. We had the traditional "I was born with two hands" and "I wish I had one hand" comments. Jordan pulled out her arms and shared how they worked with a couple of girls who were in the room.
Jordan was acting a bit goofy, but it was great to see her show off her helper arms with pride. She bounced between her elbow princess arm to her activity arm. We showed her teacher all the different hands. I've decided that we won't bring her hook hand even though it was made for hanging on monkey bars… It's just too hook-like and dangerous. I might trust her with it at school when she's a little bigger. For now, hanging on bars will be something we do with Mom around.
I've written a letter for all of the Kindergarten teachers to share with the students… I hope that will also help prevent a little bit of the pointing and staring. I'm also willing to come into class and help present Jordan's book if we need to. I'll do whatever it takes to help the entire school see Jordan, recognize her differences and move on to more important manners like making friends and learning!

I posted on the RCP thread that OBY lost the Catholic vote. They voted for him and he thanked them with the contraceptive thing.
Now the Bishop is ordering the priests to read an anti OBY letter during their sermons this Sunday morning.
The election usually goes by whom Catholics vote for and it looks like OBY blew away another support group.
No wonder the race is so tight.

ok so i started 'trying to run' 3 yr ago, i was first advised to buy some nike lunarlites from a sales person in a general sport shop, these knackered up my shins and i had to have 3 months off, physio etc. then i went to a running shop in mk and was told i over pronate and had to buy mizuno wave alchemy 9s which seemed to do the trick as these wore out i had pains in my feet along the outer edges i was then advised to get saucony omni 8s which were apparently the equivelent !! the pains still come on after a mile of running/jogging. so i went to a different specialist shop and was told both the mizuno and saucony are way supportive causing my feet to roll outwards and over compensating. that my natural gait is only slighty overpronative and either a mizuno inspire or brooks adrenaline would better . i am female , have fairly flat feet, neutral to slight overpronation, weigh 56kg, currently do 15 miles a week (would more if it wasnt so painful), forefoot landing. size uk 5.5!!, i am on a tight budget too so if there are junior sizes available i may get them instead!, do you have any suggestions? thankyou xx
Hi Lynn - I'm amazed you managed to run in the alchemy- if your light and only slightly overpronate must have felt like having bricks on your feet!
From your description mizuno inspire would be worth a look. Mizuno wave connect is slightly less supportive and a soft ride.
would also suggest you look at brooks pure cadence- encourage natural gait and have a good level of support. I'm a previous mizuno elixir lover ( discontinued ) and I'm v impressed with these brooks
good luck
How do you feel when you try shoes on? Have you ever just put on a pair and thought they felt right? Or do you take the advice of the assistant every time?
Good luck to any youngster who is going to turn out for their four hour contract job for minimum wage on a Sunday afternoon and recite the script prepared for them by their managers, but it won't help me find a shoe that suits me.
My advice is to get the first shoe that fits you and feels nice on your feet, and ignore the utter bullshit that is the world of shoe brands and names and model numbers.
Shoes are rarely the cause of, or cure for injuries. Just buy what feels comfortable.
excellent knew i could count on the real experts! people that actually 'run'! i will go and try on a few more and google which stores sell the ones youve all kindly suggested. i have tried on a few and thought yeyyy! but quickly been handed shoes that are twice the price and told alot of brainwashing phsychobabble and sent into a 'buy it now' trance!! looking forward to my next try on sesh!! cheers xxx
£60 ish....and guarenteed you'll come out with Orthotics!
Agree with above, they will either sell you orthotics you may or may not need, but will certainly leave you with a hang up. Running should be simple, the more you do it the more you become accustomed to it, there will always be bedding in and niggles. You sound like a salesman's dream, so stay away from podiatrists
Lynn. Just reading your first sentence again '...these knackered up my shins'. The shoes had nothing to do with your sore shins. What knackered your shins was all or some of the following:
1. Your body adjusting to new demands placed on it.
2. Reaching out with your leg and landing on your heel (puts excessive load through your knee and lower leg as well as creating a longer time supporting your body weight)
3. Doing too much too soon
4. not resting enough between runs
It's you that's doing the running, not your shoes.
Agree with Mr. Puffy above - buy what feels comfortable and ignore sales assistants (even UPandRunning, Runners Need etc), they will try to sell you supportive footwear which you will probably not need, even if you overpronate - overpronation is often caused by (ironically) wearing overly supportive footwear or thick cushioned shoes - arch support etc.
As your foot lands on the floor your foot tries to "feel" for the ground and if there's lots of cushioning this stops your foot feeling the ground and so rolls inward - this is likely the source of your overpronation
Next time you are in a running store ask them to do a video analysis of your running form but in NEUTRAL shoes with little or (preferably) no padding (no arch support at all! - just flat and with no heel drop)
- the over pronation will most likely disappear.
Bottom line?
Consider minimalist footwear or something neutral
Try this article:
A Complete Low-Down On Minimalist Running Shoes!
(OK I'm a bit biased 'cos me and the wife wrote the article but it's a good place to start if you want to learn more)
If you do decide to go on the minimalist route you have to be careful and you should make the transition from conventional running shoes to minimal sloooowly. Try this:

oddly enough we did look at the barefoot option but it just bought up the question 'why do we have support in shoes and runners ' ? i always took my shoes off as a child even to splash in puddles and play in the stream, walk on gravel and hot pavements!! yep i am strange! oh dear now im even more confused!! are there any scientific based write ups discussing the pro and cons etc of barefoot/minimalist running? your article was great andy but i need to really get things in perspective! having horses etc i guess i relate to the no hoof no horse saying and my current horse has had to have shoes due to her condition, but she is the first one to have metal clangers on! my last one had horsey trainers on the front feet for road work and naked feet the rest of the time!! so why do we need support in shoes?
We don't.
Lynn I'm still researching barefoot running and have also been doing it in practice for the last 2 years - but very gradually. Most of the research on barefoot is anecdotal and there's nothing concrete to say for certain if it is beneficial or problematic but I think if you stay on the sensible side and avoid being too enthusiastic you can get a lot from barefoot. Personally, I started slipping off my running shoes at the end of my run and running the last 1/4 mile home - then every other run I would increase this by 1/8 mile. Whenever my calluses get too tender (and they will from time to time) I back off, when all systems are go I add on another 1/8 mile. Following this strategy I almost reached my first 10K last year but I ran on a piece of glass and injured myself, then it was winter so...
I still want to include barefoot into my training but whether I will run barefoot all the time is down to my foot bones - one thing I would say is that I'm no spring chicken (46 years old) but my feet (bones and skin) adapted to the barefoot better than I ever imagined but it has to be a very slow progression. The beauty of running barefoot though is that your feet will soon let you know when you've over done it and you tend to back off at the right time if you take notice of how your feet are feeling.
It's not for everyone - but worth trying - like I said, flip off your shoes at the end of your next run (it's just about warm enough now) and run 1/4 mile barefoot and you might surprise yourself as to how much you like it. You'll get weird looks but after a short time it becomes part of the fun.
My barefoot running led to running in minimalist as well (vibram five fingers kso and bikila) which I do my heavy training in - marathons ultra's etc. but barefoot is becoming more present in my training each year I do it. What I find with the barefoot is that it teaches my feet how to land properly (I used to be a heel striker) and this has translated into running in my vibrams so a combo of barefoot and minimalist might be the direction to take but firstly take off whatever running shoes your wearing now and run a bit of barefoot (1/4 mile) see if you like it. Where's the harm?
Research wise you might want to check out Dr Lieberman who has done most of the scientific research
Ken Bob Saxon for a more hands on experience of barefoot
and you have to read Born to Run (an absolute must, brilliant!)
Hope this helps!
And the rest...;-)
If you try barefoot lynn find a nice pavement to run on. When you get to 2-3 mile stage include some rougher/stoney tracks - your feet adapt. Trouble with running on grass is that your foot won't learn how to land properly. If you run on pavement etc. your feet will soon tell you off if you do it wrong - resulting in a softer landing and on the forefoot.
If you choose grass for the sake of getting out there barefoot fair enough but as soon as possible switch to hard smooth surfaces - your bones in your feet become stronger and stronger from the impact a harder surface provides and as long as you are gradual (increasing your distance by no more than 1/8 mile every other run say) your feet will adapt nicely. Same common sense rules apply though, if your calluses are tender after 24 hours back off and don't increase. Same applies to bone aches, if they persist back off until there gone, then increase. I find the best strategy is if your feet are sore a day after a barefoot run either repeat the distance you did last or reduce it until the soreness has gone THEN increase 1/8 mile. (your first barefoot run should be no more than 1/4 mile)
Remember if you try this to do it at the end of a normal run, take things from there
Best of luck to you
Andy from

I was really disappointed in this product. It is a crayon like pencil, and it comes with a sharpener, but the product itself has barely anything in the "pencil"-definitely not enough to sharpen. It doesn't roll or screw up, it is just essentially the tip of the gloss that you can see and nothing else. After I used it less than ten times, it is almost gone. Nice color and shine but not worth close to twenty dollars. In contrast, I purchased a similar Revlon product for less than ten bucks, it swivels up, and I have been using it for months with plenty left.1

Will be getting a new machine this week.
Have Ubuntu on my current machine . . . and currently have it configured the way I want it.
Am looking for a way to migrate what I have (exactly as configured) over to my new machine. Am sure there's a way.
New machine will come with 8.10 preinstalled . . . a Dell Inspiron 15, 4GB RAM, 250GB HDD (laptop). I have no idea how it will be partitioned, but I assume it will just be one big 250GB partition, with maybe a small Dell recovery partition, and the usual Dell crapware.
I have two 4GB USB sticks, one with completely free space, the other almost. If I can fit a backup on one of them (any number of Ubuntu utilities for that, from "Clonezilla" to rsync to "P.I.N.G" - "Partimage Is Not Ghost" - to "MondoRescue" and on and on), then I can use that as the transfer vehicle.
I'd like at least to have my OS duplicated, with all of the settings. If the image will also include all the apps I have installed (I have one Ubuntu partition, not a separate for the home directory, so I assume all the apps would be on this partition image as well), that will be an extra bonus.
I know with Windows, simply making copies doesn't make the apps bootable . . . they have to be installed and seated in the registry.
I have my Firefox profile and Thunderbird emails exported to a USB stick, so that part shouldn't be a problem if I have to restore them separately.
As I understand it though, Ubuntu is a little bit different from Windows in that a backup of the OS is bootable (if made with one of the above mentioned titles).
And there's always networking, but I've never set anything like that up between two Ubuntu machines. Of course, I've not used any of those backup titles either.
I remember in the old days doing a migration via IR, but I think that technology has long since gone by the way side . . . besides, neither of my machines (old and new) are equipped with IR (if machines even are anymore).
Then too, can I upload a backup to my website host and then recover it on the new machine?
I'm looking for the most painless way to do this.

The Light Shaper shows how to create colored shadows on the background
Andrea Belluso is an experienced photographer with more than three decades in the business. He has shot everything and everyone from supermodels and celebrities to fashion, beauty and stock photography. Once a month, Andrea takes us behind the scenes of one of his most recent shoot. This time he shows us how he created colored shadows on a background. Enjoy!
Hederus is what could be described as a Swedish sports fashion brand. By that I mean they design clothes with a sporty attitude rather than actual sportswear. I was recently approached by Hederus and asked to shoot a series of images that would reflect this mixture of fashion and an active, colorful lifestyle. It was important that this came through in all aspects of the images – the styling, the model, the lighting, etc.
So, I started thinking. Pretty soon I remembered this shoot I did in the early days while assisting Bardo Fabiani. For those of you who don't remember, Bardo was a pretty big name back then. He himself had started out assisting the legendary David Bailey. Coming from that background, Bardo was obviously meticulous and creative with his lighting. I learned a lot from him.
The shoot I remembered involved Bardo and me playing with colored shadows on the background. I used to think it was such a simple yet fun and creative thing to do, and I still do. It's also really easy! You put colored gels on your background light. You then bleach the colored background with some hard front lighting. Finally, you place the model so that he or she prevents the bleaching main light from hitting the background and, hey presto, you have a colored shadow!
I decided to do something similar for Hederus. But I tweaked the concept and kept the colored background in a tone similar to that of the shadows. This is also quite easy to do. Just make sure your main light isn't strong enough to bleach out the background completely. But it has to be strong and hard enough to get a distinct shadow. So how did I do that?
The main light was a single D1 monolight equipped with a Softbox RFi 1,3×2 RFi with both diffusers removed. Removing both diffusers meant that I practically ended up with a large reflector, similar to a hard reflector. It's also worth noting that I placed the softbox quite far away from the model to make the light even harder.
Now, some of you might ask why I didn't just use a hard reflector, such as the Magnum Reflector, the Telezoom Reflector or the WideZoom Reflector? Well, for starters, you get a much wider light spread with a stripped down RFi softbox than you do with a Magnum or TeleZoom. Secondly, the output isn't quite as high, which was good thing in this case where I didn't want to bleach the background too much. Finally, using the WideZoom Reflector would've given me a too wide and even light for this kind of shoot. The final image would just look flat. The stripped down RFi softbox, on the other hand, created a light somewhere in between these alternatives, and it was just perfect!
That was the main light. For the background I used a second D1 equipped with a Softbox RFi 2×3 RFi with a color gel and a Softgrid. The Softgrid was equipped to focus the light a bit more. It also helped keep the color gel in place. The size was chosen simply because it gave me just the right light spread and the right softness on the background.
Finally, I wanted to have a rim light on the model's side, to give me a nice and dynamic highlight on his face and on the clothes. This was achieved with a third D1 equipped with a Zoom Reflector. Using the Zoom Reflector's zoom function allowed me to shape the light, so that I got just the right amount of highlight on each separate shot.
Well, that was that. Hope you like the results! If you feel like trying it yourself, I'd suggest using the D1 Studio Kit 3 Heads. It contains everything you need to do this, except for the Zoom Reflector!
If you have any questions, leave a comment below and I'll do my best to reply as soon as I can.

Thank you a lot Andrea. I especially like the hard reflector argument.
Hi Andrea,
thanks. Quite simple but very fine.
Keith Payne
Which D1 kit?
Fredrik Franzén
Hi Keith,
D1 Studio Kit 3 Heads: http://profoto.com/int/products/monolights-kits-associated-accessories/d1-kits/item/d1-studio-kit-3-heads
/Fredrik Franzén, Profoto
I love that last picture shoeing how you organize your Profoto softboxes and modifiers! What do you attach to the wall to hold them?
Andrea Belluso
Debbi, they are wall mounts that fit the Profoto collar dimensions. They can be ordered from any Profoto retailer although very few actually have them in stock. I love them 🙂
Billy Walker
Yes, please tell us how they are attached.
Andrea Belluso
Hi Bill!
How did it go with ordering the mounts?
Tell us more about the Gels – Where are the gels from and type?
Andrea Belluso
Thank you all and really glad you enjoyed it!
Debbi and Billy you are not the only one asking about that, but unfortunately I am not sure if the modules used to hang the softboxes on the wall are available for sale to the general public, but if I do find out where you can buy them I will let you know.
Phil, the coloured gels are standarf coloured gels you find in any good photo or film retail store, I am not sure of the actual brand of the ones I used last time, but they are simply the colours that you see in the pictures.
Andrea Belluso
Hi again Debbi and Billy, I now have some more information on the wall mounts for softboxes. They can be ordered by all Profoto resellers as they are not normally kept in stock. To make life easier for the sellers, tell them that they should order the wall mounts that have the article number 441014 at Profoto.
I hope this helps you. And I totally agree with you, it's a great way to keep the softboxes in place and looking great in the studio 🙂
Billy Walker
Thank you for getting that info!
Casting Colors: Getting Creative with Shadows
[…] Using a 3×2 softbox with the diffusion removed and at a significant distance from the subject, Belluso created a hard key light to cast a defined shadow upon the white backdrop. A second 2×3 softbox containing a colored gel and grid for focusing was set to spill only on the background. A third light was utilized to rim the model and apparel. (See full explanation of lighting setup on Belluso's Profoto Blog. […]
Thx, I'll try that!
Great tips as usual Andrea! Going to try this soon!
Billy Walker
I have searched for 441014 at both Profoto and B&H and neither site recognizes the number 🙁
Danton Scholle
This is very sharp, I can see. I need to look at this great info for a while..This is a good post Andrea B…..Thank U
Andrea Belluso
Billy, you should tell B&H to put an order at Profoto with that product number, even if B&H don't recognise the number, Profoto US know what it is and you will get your wall mounts 🙂
If this does not help you should contact Profoto US directly and see what they can do.
Debbi, good luck with that! I hope it turns out great for you!
Rick-y, glad you liked it 😉 Cheers! Would be great to know how you get on with your test with it!
Danton, Glad you liked it. 🙂
Have a great weekend everyone!
Billy Walker
Andrea, thank you for the reply. I will follow your advice.
What watt seconds are the lights?

Keith, sorry for the late reply but I am travelling a lot at the moment. The lights are of 1000 W/s for the main light, 1000 W/s for the background light and 500 W/s for the rim light.
But to be honest with you I could have also done it with three D1 monologhts of 500 W/s since I was not using a lot of power and I did not have any critical issues with having to freeze the movement.
Thank you for the video AND for responding to questions here.
It looks like the graphic for the lighting diagram has the main or key light on the wrong side for most of the sample images. It looks as though it should have been drawn on camera right.
Andrea Belluso
KG, you are totally right, my apologies, the key light was on camera right for most of the images. My assistant got fired for that!
Just kidding 🙂
This is a tutorial I am going to practise. I truly enjoy and learn a lot about light shaping from your videos.

More Information
The Phil and Teds Lobster Portable High Chair
Genie of hygiene. All your cleaning wishes granted.
No need to subject your little angel to any more grubby restaurant highchairs! Junior will love dining out on Lobster. Breakfast, lunch and dinner will wipe right off the easy clean fabric. Or simply slide the seat out of the frame and handwash. Lobster genius.
Snug & secure. There'll be no wriggling out of this one!
Smaller children often have trouble sitting securely in most regular highchairs. The comfy padded shoulder straps and 4-point safety harness allow for wriggle room - not wriggle through!
Food tray. Catches spills, but not food fights.
The wide, resilient food tray slides securely under the clamp grips, to protect the table surface from attack by food and colouring crayons. We've also included an illustrated tray insert of that cheeky lobster 'Lobbie'. Check out the video to see more of his adventures!
Do the twist! Easy on. And off. And on again.
The twist-on and twist-off mechanism is a piece of cake for adults, but not so easy for little hands. The firm finishing point of the turn lets you know it's secure. Suits most table thicknesses.
Ready, set, eat! Super fast setup and pack down.
Feeding time is often challenging enough without adding an awkward and cumbersome high chair into the mix. Pick it up by the frame, and the lobster will literally fall into position. Once it's detached, flip the handles inwards and it folds neatly back onto itself. And you're off!
Claw strength. More bite than a lipstick-wearing bulldog!
Strong, secure and safety certified. Clamps on to almost any table with super-secure pincer-like clamps for a worry-free grip every time.
Get a taste of this. A smart & stylish portable highchair.
The brushed stainless steel frame and robust, easy care fabrics are not only strong and durable, but so good looking you'll be turning heads at every bench and table top you latch your lobster onto!

|even a picky person likes it !
User: Jami S, Sep 28, 2011
|I really like how well it fits and protects my BB from damage when I drop it.
|Top quality case that offers great protection
User: Gerard G, Aug 28, 2009
|This is a really nice protective case that is well manufactured from quality materials. It looks like it will protect your Tour falling face down onto a flat surface. Extra cushioning at the 4 corners. I am much more at ease in my everyday handling of my Tour. The side chrome buttons are covered, but highlighted and fully functional. All of the port/speaker openings are perfectly located. I didnt use the included screen protector as I use a ZAGG one instead. My only complaint is that the case increases the size somewhat, but that is to be expected. Its more difficult to slip into and pull out of my jeans pocket, either due to the slightly increased size or the extra traction on the case. All in all I love this case.
|wonderful case
User: Al c, Aug 18, 2009
I recently discover OtterBox. This is a well made product. Its a soft rubber. Very flexible, but it has a spot on tight fit. It also comes with its own screen protector that is not difficult to put on. I do recommend to clean your phones screen with anti-static cleaner first.
You will not have any regrets with this purchase. Almost makes me wonder if I should have order the "defender" version instead.

As 2014 begins, I took a moment to reflect on my past three years of service on the Mesa City Council. My time on council has been one of the most intrinsically rewarding experiences of my life and I have appreciated the opportunity to serve a community that has been home to five generations of my family and that I love so much. I have had the great privilege to work with the one of the best and most successful Mayors and City Councils that Mesa has ever had. With so many success stories these past few years have been an exciting time for City of Mesa and me.
For 25 years Mesa has been my home and my recent experience serving on the Mesa City Council has been the opportunity of a lifetime. I am passionate about Mesa's future and, in keeping with that spirit, I am excited to announce that I will run for reelection to the Mesa City Council in District 4. It would be an honor and a privilege to continue to serve the residents of District 4. I am humbled by the outpouring of support in letters, emails, and calls from many people encouraging me to continue on in public service because of my efforts on behalf of the district over the last three years.
I am pleased and deeply grateful that my friend Steve West, a partner at Udall Shumway, who has been strongly involved in Mesa, will serve as Campaign Chair for my reelection. I am also honored to have Dean and Florene Brinkerhoff and Pat Esparza serving as Honorary Chairs for my reelection campaign. As we begin 2014, I would be deeply honored to have your support and endorsement for my reelection. I am looking forward to a great 2014 and with your support, being reelected to the Mesa City Council on August 26, 2014 and able to continue serving the residents of District 4.
Best wishes,

first time posting here...
I have 2003 Odyssey at 82,000 km. The engine light stays on with TCS light on and off.
First time I took it in, it showed P0304 misfire. They checked and cleaned sparkplugs and it was fine for 8 months.
Second time I took it in with the same problem (lights on). Test came back with P0304, P0305 and P0306 misfires on cylinder 4, 5 & 6. They cleaned out EGR ports and replaced gasket. Spark plugs were okay.
As I was driving out from the dealer, the lights came on again. One more test later, it came back with same errors.
Now, they are suggesting to use the supreme gas and add fuel cleaner. If that doesn't get it fixed, they suggested to have injectors cleaned (cost up to $525), but they are saying it may not correct the problem.
I'm going to add the fuel cleaner because it won't hurt. But if this doesn't work, where do I go from here?

Men's Tennis Travels to Air Force for MW Opener
March 23, 2012
SAN DIEGO - The No. 55 San Diego State men's tennis team is set to open Mountain West play this weekend when it travels to Colorado Springs, Colo., for a contest with Air Force. The conference match is set for an 11 a.m. PT start on Sunday at the Lifetime Fitness Center.
SDSU is coming off a weekend where it earned third place in the Hilton San Diego Mission Valley Spring Classic after picking up convincing wins against Pacific (6-1) and Oklahoma State (4-0).
The Falcons, meanwhile, are 8-8 on the season and went 2-1 in three matches at home last week. Air Force dropped a 6-1 decision to Utah on Monday, before notching consecutive 7-0 victories against South Dakota State and Saint Louis.
San Diego State holds a 23-1 advantage in the all-time series with the Falcons. The Aztecs defeated Air Force, 6-1, when the two teams last met in April of last year.
After its matchup with the Falcons, SDSU will stay in Colorado Springs, Colo., for a contest against Denver University. The non-conference tilt is scheduled for 1 p.m. PT on Tuesday at Gates Tennis Center.

At a recent concert, I was chatting with Jason Stoff when Ms. McDaniel approached. I've been an acquaintance of Kate's for a while now so we exchanged pleasantries before she leveled a good-natured shot at me: "I really like that series you are doing, but it's a bit of a boys' club."
I responded that I was well aware of the need for some female subjects and that I had already lined up a couple (I had!) but she didn't seem to believe me and simply said, "Yeah, right". So I pointed my meaty finger at her and said, "OK! You're next, Kate!". She smiled and walked away but I got in touch shortly thereafter and we arranged her session.
We decided to meet at Kate's regular Saturday morning haunt, the Tower Grove Farmers' Market. Originally I thought I'd shoot Kate paparazzi-style as she shopped for stuff but the crowd and the layout of the market was not very conducive to such an approach. But, I was really looking forward to the shoot since I didn't know Kate well and wanted to learn more about how she got into photography, so the stroll around the market allowed us to chat a bit.
Like so many of us camera-toting folks these days, Kate got serious about shooting after graduating from a point-n-shoot to a "real" camera: a DSLR. And like me, she turned that camera on her music-making friends and started snapping away. After a while she started shooting for local radio station KDHX where she has (along with Nate Burrell and others) helped make the broadcaster's website a destination for high quality local music photography.
After realizing that the market wasn't yielding the photos I wanted (know when to fold em, folks) we decided to move to a different section of the park for a few portraits. Kate had ridden her bike to the market and when she wheeled up in front of me I knew I wanted to include it in a shot or two. I made her ride in circles for a bit while I snapped away, and then I parked her on a nearby bench while we finished our conversation and I made some more images and cracked jokes.
In talking to Kate I realized how vital photography has become to me, especially as a means for meeting interesting new people. Every one of these sessions has allowed me to get to know my fellow image-makers on a personal level and yielded some amazing stories. These are conversations I would never have had were it not for my camera and the passion I have for using it.
For example, I wouldn't know that Kate has two masters degrees and taught in Guatemala. I wouldn't know about the horrible accident that Nate Burrell recently recovered from. I wouldn't know about the sweet shooting location that Bryan Sutter showed me, and a host of other things. I have no idea how this series might evolve, but I do know that I want to meet more photographers and hear more stories, both of which enrich my life to no end.
And it's all because of this silly little camera.

I didn't realize a point-n-shoot wasn't a real camera. The things I learn from well-written photo blogs.
Photography art's beauty is capturing the moment's essence. Both you and Kate do it very well. I have some long experience in observing Kate at many different times throughout our lives…you've achieved capturing some beautiful moments.

the 23rd July 1800 between the hours of ten and eleven O'Clock at
night two men came to his house.
They were Dennis McDaniel and Sylvester Delaney both resident in
Graige, Queen's County. Dennis McDaniel came up to the house of
James Neal and immediately demanded admittance upon which James Neal
asked him what he wanted at that hour of the night, his answer was
"open the door you rascal until I search your house for rebels",
upon which James Neal was obliged to open the door and instantly
received a punch on the breast from the muzzle of a pistol in said
McDaniels hand.
McDaniel immediately swore he must have money or his life, upon
which saying his wife bounced out of bed and ran to a trunk and
opened it and shewed McDaniel some receipts, McDaniel immediately
threw them about the floor saying to Mrs Neal
"you whore this is not what
- I want I must get money".
McDanial immediately ran into the bedroom and took hold of James
Neals breeches and out of the Pocket book in the breeches took the
amount of 7 Guineas, -- one of which was a 5 Guinea note and the
others two 1 Guinea notes -- upon which McDaniel went to the fire
and lit some chips and while they were lighting he said he must look
at his watch as he said he must go that night elsewhere.
McDaniel made James Neal and his wife and his son swear that they
would never give out or inform that they were robbed of either a
Shilling, paper or money -- in consequence of what McDaniel had done
in the house Mrs Neal was immediately taken violently ill and died
in 14 days after and further James Neal sayth not ~~~
