New Delhi (CNSNews.com) - Ousted Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was Wednesday formally charged with kidnapping, attempted murder, hijacking and terrorism, offenses that carry the death penalty or life imprisonment.
"I plead not guilty because I am innocent," Sharif told the anti-terrorism court in Karachi after Judge Rehmet Hussein Jaffri read out the charges.
Jaffri dropped the charge of waging war against Pakistan but charged the former premier with hijacking, a capital crime.
Jaffri said Sharif, his brother Shahbaz and five others had endangered the lives of 198 passengers and crew aboard a civilian aircraft heading for the city of Karachi.
"You also illegally confined the passengers and, by this act, created a sense of uncertainty and insecurity among the passengers. Thus you are charged with these offenses," the judge said.
The incident occurred on October 12th last year when Sharif and others allegedly refused to allowing the plane to land, diverting it instead to another city, Nawabshah.
Among its passengers was army chief General Pervez Musharraf, who had just been sacked by Sharif. With its fuel running low, the plane was eventually allowed to land only after troops loyal to Musharraf seized the airport.
Musharraf subsequently overthrew the civilian government and now heads the ruling military regime.
"I am not the one who hijacked the plane," Sharif told the court. "It was General Musharraf who hijacked the democratically-elected government."
After formally framing the charges against the seven accused, Jaffri set the start of the trial for January 26th.
Besides Sharif and his brothers, others who pleaded their innocence were the former chairman of the Accountability Bureau Saiffur Rehman, an advisor to Sharif, Syed Ghaus Ali Shah, former Pakistan International Airways chairman Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, former Inspector General of Police of Sindh Rana Maqbool Ahmed and a senior bureaucrat, Saeed Mehdi.
The former director of the Civil Aviation Authority, Aminullah Chaudhry, earlier turned state witness or "approver" in the case against the others.
Outside the courtroom, Sharif told reporters that the allegations were "fake, false and baseless and were to justify the illegal and unconstitutional act of October 12th."
He accused Musharraf of unlawfully detaining a prime minister, "without being charged or without trial."
The charges were formally framed almost three months after the bloodless coup. It has been held up for several weeks because of legal arguments over jurisdiction and the nature of evidence.
A new judge was appointed to preside last week after proceedings were stalled because of the presence of plainclothes intelligence officials in the courtroom.
The case is being heard in one of the anti-terrorist courts set up by Sharif during his tenure to handle terrorism-related cases. The courts have handed down a number of death sentences.
Human Rights Watch recently questioned the operations of the courts, saying "convicted persons have only seven days in which to file appeals, and these, too, must be heard and decided within a seven-day period. These provisions contravene international human rights principles of due process, including the right of adequate time and facilities for the preparation of a defense."
A previous military regime hanged former premier Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in 1979 after he was convicted of conspiring to commit a political murder.

Frost & Sullivan: Open areas with large congregations of people vulnerable to terrorism threats
Ensuring public safety 24/7 not always possible The horrific bombings that occurred at the Boston Marathon that claimed at least 3 lives and caused injury to more than 180 people was an extremely tragic event which has once again shown that at any event and/or location at which a large crowd of people gather at will always remain a potential target area for terrorist attacks. Ever since 9/11, the US Dept. of Homeland Security has been at the forefront in terms of focusing on prevention of such attacks and improving on public safety, critical infrastructure protection and other physical security. The one single challenge the US, along with all other countries face is how to ensure public safety 100% of the time. Unfortunately, due to the volatile and unpredictable nature of terrorism, it is near impossible to ensure public safety 24/7. The patterns of such attacks are erratic in nature and can happen at any place and at any time. According to news sources, there are plans that are being undertaken to tighten security at marathon events in London and Australia during 2013. "One of the major implications that the Boston bombings will cause globally is the tightening of security at similar sporting events," says Neil Dave, Consulting Analyst, Asia Pacific Aerospace & Defense Practice, at Frost & Sullivan. The homeland security segments of critical infrastructure protection, public safety agencies and CBRN detection will increase. Preventive measures that are undertaken at events where people are required to assemble in stadiums (indoor and outdoor) are usually quite effective as there is more scope for effective crowd control at these events. At such venues, public safety is ensured by having security checks with scanners, metal detectors and so on. Also, the main advantage faced is that these venues can be strategically sealed by controlling routes of entry and exit points. Hence, at-least weapons and explosives can be detected on any persons entering such venues on the spot. On the other hand, to ensure safety in terms of planted explosives, bomb disposal and EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) teams can be deployed to such venues days before the event to ensure there are no such devices found. However, as mentioned earlier, ensuring public safety at all times may not always be possible, depending on the type of event taking place. For example, in the case of marathon events being held in the midst of cities, there is not much that can be done to prevent terrorist attacks by means of bomb blasts. In these events, there are a multitude of ways/options for terrorist organizations to plan such attacks. Explosive devices can be pre-planted in discreet locations anywhere across the city days before such an event is scheduled to take place. Further, in such situations, it is close to impossible and not feasible to have CBRN and EOD teams to scan such a large area for explosive devices. However, sealing the area with barricades to mark designated areas that are suitable for occupancy by public, controlling routes of entry/exit to regulate the flow of people, as well as ensuring stringent security checks via scanners and metal detectors at such events are ways to enhance the public safety by ensuring that safety against imminent threats by potential terrorists attending this event. "While investigations continue to take place on this tragic event, it can be said that the overall main issue being faced here is that any such event which attracts large masses of people is a potential target for a terrorist attack and that organizations will always have to be extra-vigilant in ensuring that people are made aware of such threats. Spreading information awareness in highly crowded venues by having banners and TV screens which compel the general public to pay keen attention to any suspicious activities is a crucial step in promoting safety awareness" says Dave. Several other countries along with the US are also becoming more involved in undertaking these initiatives to elevate a higher level of awareness of the real and imminent threat that such attacks can happen at any time and anywhere.

April 5, 2013 - The Federal Aviation Administration announced today that it will delay the closures of all 149 federal contract air traffic control towers until June 15. Last month, the FAA announced it would eliminate funding for these towers as part of the agency's required $637 million budget cuts under sequestration.
The control tower at Oshkosh's Wittman Regional Airport, home of EAA AirVenture, has been on the closure list since it was announced on March 22. As reported at that time, EAA expects no adverse impact on AirVenture air operations regardless of the tower's ultimate fate.
"Many of the legal actions that have emerged since the March 22 announcement questioned whether a proper safety analysis was part of the determination for tower closures," said Sean Elliott, EAA's vice president of advocacy and safety. "Safety needs to be a key consideration with any broad, sweeping cutbacks in air traffic services. Certainly, the tower at Oshkosh is a good example of the need for a safety-oriented analysis."
According to the FAA news release announcing the extension, the additional time will allow the agency to attempt to resolve multiple legal challenges to the closure decisions. Extending the transition deadline will also give the FAA and airports more time to execute the changes to the National Airspace System.
"This has been a complex process and we need to get this right," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood. "Safety is our top priority. We will use this additional time to make sure communities and pilots understand the changes at their local airports."
As of today, approximately 50 airport authorities and other stakeholders have indicated they may join the FAA's non-Federal Contract Tower program and fund the tower operations themselves. This additional time will allow the FAA to help facilitate that transition.
"We will continue our outreach to the user community to answer any questions and address their concerns about these tower closures," said FAA Administrator Michael Huerta.
On March 22, the FAA announced that it would stop federal funding for 149 contract towers across the country. A phased, four-week closure process was scheduled to begin this Sunday, April 7, with the control tower at Oshkosh originally scheduled to close on April 21. That phased closure process will no longer occur. Instead, the FAA will stop funding all 149 towers on June 15 and will close the facilities unless the airports decide to continue operations as a nonfederal contract tower or an ultimate solution to sequestration cuts is approved by Congress and the White House.

Choose a smoky, full-flavored bacon for this burger, which takes a traditional topping and mixes it right into the meat.
The cheese in the burger helps form a crusty exterior, adding another layer of flavor.
Servings: 6
- 2 ounces smoked bacon (2 slices of thick-cut bacon), diced
- 1/2 diced onion
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef, preferably chuck or sirloin
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
- Nonstick spray oil or vegetable oil, if needed
In a small saute pan over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until the fat renders out. Do not allow the bacon to crisp. Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the onion pieces are translucent and have softened. The bacon should still be soft. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the mixture to a plate to cool. Discard excess fat.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooled bacon-onion mixture, the beef, pepper to taste and the cheddar cheese. Be careful not to overwork the meat; mix the ingredients just enough to combine them. Divide the mixture into 6 portions and form each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.
Saute, broil or grill to desired doneness, turning once, about 8 to 10 minutes for medium. If sauteing, spray the pan or griddle with a nonstick oil spray or lightly coat it with oil. The cheese in the burger will make the outside crusty, and the burger might stick even in a nonstick pan.

The act of staying completely silent while having sexual intercourse with a girl/woman. Just when you are about to climax, you articulate a random, awkward word or phrase into the ear of the your partner (ie. jump rope, Latvia, plantains). After saying this word, you pull out and walk away from where you and your partner were engaging in sexual activities, leaving him or her feeling awkward, uncomfortable, and confused.
- "Did you hear about Matt? He was banging some chick, then all of a sudden said 'plantains,' pulled out, then ran away."
- "Damn that's awesome. He his that bitch with the 'blumepickle.' Classic!"

Trust is the relationship between two or more network entities that are permitted to communicate.
Security policy decisions are largely based on this premise of trust. If you are trusted, you are allowed to communicate as needed. However, sometimes security
controls need to apply restraint to trust relationships by limiting or preventing access to the designated privilege level. Trust relationships can be explicit or implied
by the organization. Some trust relationships can be inherited or passed down from one system to another. However, keep in mind that these trust relationships
can also be abused.
Identity is the "who" of a trust relationship. These can be users, devices, organizations, or all of the above. Network entities are validated by credentials.
Authentication of the identity is based on the following attributes:
■ Something the subject knows: Knowledge of a secret, password, PIN, or private key
■ Something the subject has: Possession of an item such as a token card, smartcard, or hardware key
■ Something the subject is: Human characteristics, such as a fingerprint, retina scan, or voice recognition
Generally, identity credentials are checked and authorized by requiring passwords, pins, tokens, or certificates.

Why Women Are Gaga for Hillary
There's been a sea change in the way the public feels about Hillary Clinton since her run for president in 2008. Back then we had respect for Clinton and knew she is competent and trustworthy, but we didn't deem her worthy of the same giddy excitement as her then-competitor President Obama.
Now, six years later, we are gaga for her. We LO-OVE Hillary. The Daily Beast has a story about Hillary super-fans, women who cover their cars or bodies with her face or spend their days tracking her every move on their blogs. They might be more expressive than others, but the nearly $6 million already raised by the "Ready for Hillary" Super PAC suggests they are not alone.
Writer David Freelander points out that Hillary-fever isn't because of any bold policy program put forth by the potential candidate, but rather her personal story as a hard worker and, perhaps more importantly, a survivor. One fan called her Rocky Balboa. "She gets knocked down and gets right back up again, she keeps going and going. She taught me that if someone tells you you can't do something, you get right up and prove that you can."
So why the sudden widespread change of heart about Clinton?
The survivor narrative is a strong one, but it isn't exactly new. Clinton has been through a lot for a long time, and in public too. But the difference between 2008 and now is that she is that didn't just survive, she triumphed. She is no longer seen as a wonky walking pant suit, but a globe-trotting, glamour sunglasses-wearing, Lady Gaga dancing, bad ass.
Her story gives hope to women everywhere that we have another chapter to look forward to, the one that comes after the period during which we stepped aside for our husbands' careers, and that chapter is our chance to shine. Basically, President Hillary means that women's hard work can pay off too.
Also, a "Madam President" would be a much-needed literal and symbolic victory for women across the country who are fed up with the stalled gender revolution in the States. Even if history tells us that female heads-of-states don't always lead to more women-friendly policies, we would at least be given reason to hope. And hope, as our current President Barack Obama showed us, can go a long way. Well at least during an election.

Where Angel Treads
Growing up is fraught with so many pitfalls and tragedies and traumas that it's a wonder any of us make it to adulthood. Add in a gender-identity issue, something wrapped up in so many aspects of sexuality and psychology and social identity, and you begin to think that it's practically a miracle to see someone come through it successfully. That's why Buck Angel is an inspiration for so many of us — straight, gay, transgendered, whomever. Born a biological female, Angel struggled with a body that he knew was a misrepresentation of who he was on the inside. Though he was a successful model, he was so uncomfortable living as a woman that he turned to drugs and alcohol, eventually ending up on the streets. Today, he is a happy, healthy man who was able to confront his demons and reconcile who he really was, a man who inspires others to be true to themselves. Meet the man himself during The Intimacy Dojo's VIP dinner at Dish (4123 Cedar Springs Road), starting at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. The event, featuring a meet-and-greet, question-and-answer session and an appearance by sex and relationship expert Reid Mihalko, costs $69. Tickets may be purchased at theintimacydojo-buck.eventbrite.com.

The government's controversial plans to provide tens of thousands of affordable homes in south east England risk creating the 'sink estates of tomorrow', a leading New Labour think-tank warns today.
A report published by the Institute for Public Policy Research says that more than double the projected 200,000 homes will be needed in the south east over the next decade, along with sustainable water and electricity sources and facilities for sport, leisure and local shopping, if the scheme is to succeed. The plans, announced by John Prescott three years ago, have already drawn accusations from Tory politicians and countryside groups that the government is 'concreting over' the south east.
The IPPR report - 'Would You Live Here? Making the Growth Areas Communities of Choice' - urges the government to rethink the project on more ambitious lines to 'help working-class families get on the housing ladder'. It says that the latest projections for housing demand suggest an additional 217,000 homes will be needed by 2016 in the four designated growth areas: the Thames Gateway on the eastern edge of London, Milton Keynes and the south Midlands, the London-Stansted-Cambridge-Peterborough 'corridor' and Ashford in Kent.
The report says a wide range of focus-group interviews found that, unless the new communities included a mix of high-quality social housing and commercial developments for higher-income residents, as well as attractive local facilities, people would be unlikely to want to live there. It also warns against building too many two-bedroom flats and ignoring the need for 'family' housing.
'Without more environmentally sustainable and high-quality house building, there will still be a desperate shortage of homes in the south east, and in 10 years' time we will look back on the "Growth Area" plans as just a drop in the ocean,' Jim Bennett, the IPPR's head of social policy and a co-author of the report, said. He added: 'It is clear from the focus groups we've done with current residents and those who are likely to move in that the last thing these new communities need are "no ball games" signs.'
The report highlights the need for parks, sports and community facilities, good local shops and transport links. The price tag for the additional infrastructure was likely to come to about £300m a year over the next decade, the report concludes.
The government's Housing Minister in the House of Lords, Baroness Andrews, said last night that £6bn of investment in transport, health and education projects in the Thames Gateway - including a new Fastrack bus service five months ago - had shown that the growth areas plan was working. She said it was laying the groundwork for 'strong, mixed communities - well-designed, with housing that meets the needs of everyone in the community.'
Andrews added that the growing demand for new homes must be met 'across the country'. She said the government had to 'ensure that others share the benefits of sustainable growth' beyond the four growth areas designated in the south east.

MILWAUKEE, Wis. – Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power has added four new Vanguard single-cylinder engines with gross horsepower ratings ranging from 5.5 hp to 10 hp. The new engines represent many new features specifically designed to address the top worksite challenges cited by end-user customers and OEMs: heavy dust, lack of regular maintenance, filtration issues and oil dilution during transportation.
During transport, engines are subjected to vibration, which can cause fuel to flow through the engine and into the oil. Fuel in the oil drastically reduces viscosity, resulting in more friction, increased wear and shorter engine life.
Vanguard engineers researched and created an integrated switch that simultaneously shuts off the ignition and the fuel. This patent-pending innovation, called the TransportGuard system, ensures that fuel stays where it belongs and helps eliminate fouled plugs, hydraulic lock, cylinder wash down and crankcase oil dilution caused by transportation, the company says. Ultimately, this saves equipment owners money by decreasing downtime and repair costs.
In addition to solving oil dilution issues, engineers designed each component and integrated technology to raise durability and reliability standards, the company says.
"Our approach to product development is to stay connected to the customer," said Dan Roche, marketing manager, Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power. "Our work in the field helped define the design criteria for these new Vanguard engines. By listening to customers and working with OEMs, we have developed an engine series that will raise the standard of dependability in the toughest job site situations."
Each area of the engine has been designed to address durability and reliability challenges. A high-mounted canister-style air cleaner has 27 percent more filter area than competitor units, the company says. An all-metal fuel tank reduces emissions, saves fuel and is mounted directly to the engine block. And heat-treated PTO bearing races ensure long-lasting equipment performance.
Additional features and benefits targeting durability standards include:
- The air filter is water-repellant and protected by a full metal cage; it features a triple-seal design to decrease dirt, dust and debris intake
- Large, efficient sediment filter; sediment collected in clear bowl easily drains through "no-tools" valve
- Commercial-style carburetor includes additional fuel passages to assure easy starting and smooth operation at a wide range of speeds and loads
- Deep ribs on the cylinder head add strength and increase cooling; mating surfaces between the cylinder head and cylinder maximize sealing and torque
- Combustion chamber improves air and fuel flow, resulting in a cleaner burn, reduced emissions and increased horsepower
- Forged crankshaft with dual ball bearings minimizes friction and heat build-up
The new Vanguard single-cylinder engines feature larger ignition coils assuring fast, easy starts and the full skirt rewind allows more airflow, while restricting dirt and debris intake. The airflow generated by the high-capacity fan is 15 percent greater than non-Vanguard engines, the company says.
Additional features and benefits targeting reliability standards include:
- Engine shroud design directs cool air over the hottest parts of the cylinder block to enhance overall performance and engine functionality
- Intake, fan and exhaust noise is minimized
- Motorsports-proven rod/dipper design improves oil flow throughout the engine, assuring maximum protection of component parts
- Oil sensor automatically shuts down the engine in low-oil situations

BUFFET breakfasts, happy hours and lazy days are stock standard for most Aussie holiday-makers.
Indulgences like these go hand in hand with stacking on the extra kilos and returning to reality with a thud, slightly heavier than when you left.
British supermarket chain Somerfield found that of the 1,664 Brits they surveyed, a whopping 67 per cent returned from holidays heavier.
Whilst an Australian study hasn't been conducted, Melanie McGrice from the Dietitians Association of NSW says that anecdotally Aussie travellers are in the same boat.
There are, however, things that can be done to prevent the bulge taking hold while relishing the next getaway.
McGrice, a weight management specialist, says that when people pack their bags they tend to switch onto "treat yourself" mode.
Indulge but watch portion size
She reassures that it's fine to give in to tasty temptations when on holiday but the key is moderation.
"Enjoy indulging but watch portion sizes," she says.
As a guide, the servings dished up on airline meals are an indication of a reasonable portion size, says McGrice.
She says it's alcohol that tends to trip most people up.
"People tend to drink a lot more when they are on holidays.
"You don't need to have the whole bottle to enjoy one glass," she suggests.
President of the NSW Personal Trainers Council James Short agrees.
He suggests that for every alcoholic drink knocked back, match it with a glass of water.
"This will make sure you are getting adequate water and help to minimise the alcohol intake," he says.
Breakfast like a king
Short says that travellers should aim to eat their biggest meals during the day when there are more hours left in the day to be active.
"Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper," Short says.
"That doesn't mean you can stock up on the hash browns at breakfast though."
According to Short there are ways to include exercise in the itinerary without it taking the form of a daunting workout.
"Ditch the hire car and take in the tourist sites by foot," Short suggest.
Apparently, 47 per cent of Brits try to get in shape before packing their bags.
Likewise, Short says he has a number of clients with the desire to get a bikini body prepped for the beachside bungalow.
He believes that having a goal before globe-trotting can help to sustain motivation whilst soaking up the sunshine.
McGrice agrees that preparing for extra indulgence is helpful.
"Be a little stricter on yourself leading up to the holiday," she says.
Greece is "Healthiest destination
The Somerfield study found that Greece is the "healthiest" travel destination.
On the other hand, McGrice believes that there are no boundaries for the health-conscious holiday. Rather, preparation is the key.
"Be aware of the desire to indulge. If it is hot have an icecream but make it a sundae and share with a friend."
Both health professionals point out that water quality may be questionable so be prepared to fork out a few dollars to keep up important H2O levels.
Don't hesitate when locking in the next sojourn. With a pinch of preparation and a hint of willpower it is still possible to live it up free of muffin top.

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
Even the Supreme Court justices appointed by Bush I and Bush II (Thomas, Roberts, and Alito) couldn't stop the Court from repudiating the current Administration's head-in-thesand approach for dealing with climate change. Today's 5-4 decision in Massachusetts v. EPA, called the administration's approach "arbitrary, capricious ... or otherwise not in accordance with law" and found that the EPA does in fact have the authority to regulate greenhouse-causing gases under the Clean Air Act.
The majority opinion contends that the "EPA has offered no reasoned explanation for its refusal to decide whether greenhouse gases cause or contribute to climate change." While the decision does not necessarily compel the EPA to regulate carbon emissions (and don't hold your breath), the ruling is significant since it frees the hand of the next President to regulate carbon and methane emissions without Congress passing additional legislation.
What the decision also does is clear the way for states to reduce greenhouse emissions with initiatives of their own. In the past, states like California that have asked the EPA for special permission to apply more stringent carbon emission limits on automobiles have been stymied by the Administration's claim that the Clean Air Act does not provide the authority to do so.

North Oldham defeated Henry County 38-7 to win the 20/20 Bowl trophy. North's vision seemed to be perfectly clear right from the get-go after their first play from under center was taken to the house. Ten seconds in to the game, senior running back Josh Smith broke free, on the left hand side and scampered all the way for a 70 yard touchdown run.
The South Oldham Dragons wasted little time showing a flair the dramatic in their 2012 campaign, pulling out a memorable 41-35 last second win in the opener against Bullitt Central.
Better still are the circumstances surrounding it.
Taking to Bell Field Friday night in their season opener, the Oldham County Colonels made sure they came out firing in Week 0, routing Atherton 55-0.
After a stunning run through district and state play this summer, the South and North Oldham Little League all-star teams said goodbye to their world series' dreams late last week. Though the games would be much different for each, the results would be the same as both would fall just short of the biggest stage.

Just in time for the new school year, county and state officials gathered Tuesday to dedicate a new bridge on North Camden Lane.
Previously, the bridge had a 3-ton weight limit and was 14 feet wide. It is now 24 feet wide and can hold 43 tons. Two cars will be able to pass side-by-side — before, drivers had to take turns crossing.
The project cost $225,000, including $160,000 from state funds.

Reviews of this property
Plus: Fantastic view, elegant apartment, great location, baby bed and seat available, equipment excellent.
Minus: sleeping room is at the back, but a bar can make it noisy in the evenings.
The apartment also gets quite expensive depending on the season.
Beautiful location, fantastic views. Nice apartment. (The underfloor heating in the bathroom was only in summertime at a too high temperature, which can not be altered. Almost too hot for your feet).
Prachtige lokatie, fantastisch uitzicht.
Mooi appartement.
(De vloerverwarming in de badkamer stond alleen in hartje zomer op een veel te hoge temperatuur, wat niet veranderd kon worden. Bijna te heet voor je voeten).
great apartment in perfect location to explore the city, very nice contact and everything went perfectly smoothly! couldn't have enjoyed the stay more and will definitely keep this apartment in mind for a future stay.
Only recommended!
Nur zu empfehlen!!
Reviews for this host's other properties
Probably the best location in Prag.
The Apartment was really spacious and modern interior.
Highly recommended!
The apartment is very nice, well equipped and the situation is great!
Definitely recommendable!
The apartment was nice and in a great location, with lots of bars and restaurants around. It's about a 10 minute walk to old town. The negatives were that the tram right outside of your window made for an early morning, and other loud guests woke us up at 4am singing in the hallway. There is also only one shower/bath and it's in one of the rooms. So if you're staying with 2 couples, you would have to knock on their door to take a bath. But the host as great, and very accommodating for an early check in for only 15€. We enjoyed our stay!!
We are a family of four, including two adult daughters and were very happy with the all situation. It is clear that there is an organization behind the apartment itself and a professional one it is. Everything was neat and the location was spot on. The formal hand over of the keys, both in and out, was quick and correct, although there was a 100 euro deposit involved (we used cash).
We had a great time in Prague and we will return
Super nice apartment. Does everything well geklappt.vielen thanks. Friendly and helpful hosts. Gladly again.
Super schönes Apartment. Hat alles gut geklappt.vielen dank. Freundliche und Hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Gerne wieder.
We only spent one Weekend at the Vladislav Attic Duplex Appartment but all we can say is: it was perfect!
It is indeed located in the middle of Prague. There are supermarkets, shopping malls and restaurants right in front of the apartment. We reached everything by foot, so we didn't even have to use our car or the train.
We highly recommend this apartment to anyone who likes to see this beautiful city and spend some valuable time there.

The Magic Millions national horse sales are under way on the Gold Coast, with freshly weaned fillies and colts the first on offer.
Over the next three weeks, the southern hemisphere's biggest breeding stock sale will see millions of dollars in horseflesh go under the hammer, from weanlings and broodmares to yearlings and racehorses.
With interest high in a couple of the broodmares, in particular, prices could nudge the million-dollar mark, while the weanlings are selling for anything between a couple of thousand and a couple of hundred thousand dollars.
With more than 2000 horses being auctioned, the sale draws buyers from across the world and across Australia, all of them looking for another Black Caviar at a bargain price.
Magic Millions owner
"Polar Success went on and won the Golden Slipper and Princess Coup went on to become one of the best mares in Australia," he said.
"Polar Success was bought for $32,000 and the other one for maybe $170 or $180,000, but significantly less than what they would have sold for at the Magic Millions sale in January or an Easter sale."
Mr Harvey said the market is nowhere near where it was in 2007, but the slide seems to have been arrested.
"The last three years have been difficult but the industry seems to have plateaued out and there's no sign that it'll either go up or go down."

Mia's Latest Surgery
Mia Robertson, the lovely daughter of Duck Dynasty's Jase and Missy Robertson, underwent surgery today for her cleft lip. The loving parents kept their fans loyally updated throughout the world via their Twitter and Facebook accounts. Fans showed their support by praising Mia's courage and positive attitude while also showing their support for Jase and Missy.
Mia, Missy reported, maintained an incredibly positive attitude as she prepared for her appointment. Showing her undying faith, love and gratefulness towards her religion, Missy tweeted "God's got this" the night before the surgery while millions of fans prayed alongside her.
Just before she was "wheeled away", a snapshot was taken of Mia, her family and her friends. Minutes later, she was taken away to undergo yet another surgery. The family waited anxiously to hear how things went while keeping their fans updated.
Only an hour or so later, Mia was returned to her family safe and sound. In fact, she felt well enough to flash a big thumbs-up to the camera! On his personal Facebook page, Jase wrote, "I really appreciate the outpouring of support, thoughts, and prayers for Mia." It's incredible to see Mia so young, yet so strong as she faces things that others can't even imagine. We pray for a quick recovery and a great new season of Duck Dynasty!

Like Mia they had countless surgeries. They are both married today with kids of their own. I pray Mua's future surgeries will be just as successful! God's got this! We love you guys!! ❤Katie Crawford commented on 25-Mar-2014 03:56 AMI love this!!!!! Mia is so beautiful and strong. The love and support of her family and fans can be the difference in a confident young woman as she enters the adult world. As I was born with a bi-lateral cleft lip and palate, I have undergone seven corrective surgeries and all the anxieties and stigmas of this life altering birth defect. Your mission to raise money and awareness is commendable and your child is precious, but my favorite part is your openness and your support of Mia. Your love will make the difference in Mia's life and many others in this world. Thank you!Lesa commented on 25-Mar-2014 07:45 PMMia, you are such a beautiful, sweet girl who brings inspiration to each and every one of us.

Our son is just beginning in his cleft lip & palate journey. He is 15 weeks old & will be undergoing surgery on Friday to repair his lip & nose. Palate surgery will be @ 8 months old. My family & I have the utmost respect & confidence in the plastic surgeon & surgery team, but extra prayer is always welcome! Thank you for starting this foundation & increasing awareness. Our surgeon stated that cleft is the #1 birth defect that no one knows about. We certainly did not! As your daughter stated & it brings tears to my eyes, "God's got this!"robin commented on 26-Mar-2014 08:42 PMI love Mia she's always been my favorite I just have very special prayer for jase missy mia and all the Robertson's you all have a special spot on my tv right next to easy chair I have laughed and cried with you, my favorite time is at the end of the show when you pray before that great meal miss Kay puts out there it warms my heart.I am sixtyone this fourth of July and sitting here in my little log cabin with husband Kent by the wood stove in alaska.i was born again three years ago mother's day being a follower,and not just a fan of God is so right,so tonite at church when we sit down to feed all the people who are hungry we will lift up mia in prayer.

13 Inexplicable Questions We All Have While Driving
Bad directions aren't the only reason you're a little lost. Drive a 2014 Chevrolet Sonic or Spark available with Siri Eyes Free integration, and you might find some much-needed answers.
1. Everyone came to the four-way stop at the same time. WHO GOES FIRST?
No you go. No, no, you go. Okay I'll go. Wait, no you go.
2. There's a line of police cars behind me trying to get through. SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN?
A law-abider's worst dilemma.

If you don't know already, you'll soon find out.
6. I dropped some fries. CLEAN UP NOW OR NEVER?
"Later" is not an option.

8. My check engine light came on. FALSE ALARM OR ACTUAL PROBLEM?
You will never know… until disaster strikes.
9. Someone just held up this sign while driving past. DO IT BACK OR TAKE THE HIGH ROAD?
Whatever you do, make sure you're not going to the same place.
10. I'm running late and the only open parking spot is reserved. ACT LIKE I DIDN'T NOTICE?
Depends on how much you like your car.

Tricks for opening a frozen hood on '41 Chevy?
We've got a '41 chev that's been sitting out in the mud behind the barn for about 40 years now ( to the point where a couple trees grew up into the fenders on one side, ) and we finally got it freed from it's entoombment after LOTS of monkeying around and creative use of greaseboards,
but anyway, a few years back we had suffered some vandalism on some other vehicles down there and I closed the hood on the thing.... Bad idea. Now I've found the hood release cable frozen solid. I've been spraying it and as far in as I can get with Kroil for a few months now, but even with a big set of pliers on there, I cant get that cable to budge.
Once we get this thing on the lift is there anyway to reach up in there and pop this thing or do I need to fill a garden sprayer with kroil and just saturate up under the hood and hope it soaks down in enough after a while to break something free, or ...gulp, take a sawzall to the hood mechinism and try to find a replacement or weld it back together after?
I'm open to anything that hopefully sounds better than what Ive come up with .
I might add that there is nothing visible from the grill or from underneath, and Ive risked copperheads and reached up as far as I could inside the nose and couldn't find anything that resembled a hood mechanism within reach.
Stand car on end in a tub of molasses for a month! <jk>
I wish I had a good idea, but I dont even know what the underside of the hood looks like on that car :(
Thinking about it a bit more and researching the hood latch design a bit I would use the sawzall and then the welder . quick simple and done deal.
I managed to find an old ad where someone was selling a grill here with a pretty decent picture of where those latches go . It looks like I'd need one heck of a long sawzall blade to reach that latch bolt coming in from an angle, it'd be the round hole in the rear, but I think it's be doable, I just dont want to tear to much else up in the process , so if anyone has any less violent ideas, please do come forth. Thanks
Looks like sawzall is out. It'll reach the front safety latch but the rear latch bolt is recessede in a raised up area just enough to where a blade can't reach it without having to shave off the raised area.
Possible good news, I *may* have found the slave side of the underside of teh cable operated latch mechinism, barely visible from the top 2 openings of teh grill, can see a plate that appears to swing back from the latch bolt nose cone. It's obviously rusted in there, so I left it to soak in penetrating oil for a week or so before attempting anything, but access is severly limited. I may be enjoying my recently aquired anvil and fabricating some interesting picks for this one.
Can you go up thru to the hood striker and unscrew it from the hood?
Ok it has been sitting for 40 years. is there room to screw around in the grill with out messing it up , if so try to cut up the radiator as it is most likely shot anyway. This may just give you room to pop it. Just a though.
41 hood
Why not just cut a hole in your hood about the size of your fist on the side of the release. Reach in do your releasing and sew up the hole. My 02 cents. Frank
I was hoping to get the hood popped where its sitting to be able to do some basic brake repair before moving it up the hill to get it on teh lift at the shop as it gets a tad dicy without brakes, but if we have to, we'll figure something out.
( thats what lots of extra folks madly flinging logs under tires are for :D
case of beer to one of your friends = trailer or tow truck to bring her up the hill.
it'll have to be a pull straight up and lower into position with the tractor following for safety. then tires on tractor pushbar, shove it up on the lift.. not the cleanest way, but about the safest considering what we have to deal with.
I probably would have left the thing down there, but my son fell in love with it, Soo.
If you cant remove the grill with the hood closed I think I'd sacrifice the grill...

Tribeca Film Festival Live
Iverson on 'Iverson'
Iverson is the ultimate legacy of NBA legend Allen Iverson, who rose from a childhood of crushing poverty in Hampton, VA, to become an 11-time NBA All-Star and universally recognized icon of his sport. Off the court, his audacious rejection of conservative NBA convention and unapologetic embrace of hip-hop culture sent shockwaves throughout the league and influenced an entire generation.
Told largely in Iverson's own words, the film charts the career highs and lows of one of the most distinctive and accomplished figures the sport of basketball has ever seen. Hear a conversation with Allen Iverson and Robert "Scoop" Jackson.

Lifestyle Changes After Cancer of the Esophagus
You can't change the fact that you have had cancer. What you can change is how you live the rest of your life – making choices to help you stay healthy and feel as well as you can. This can be a time to look at your life in new ways. Maybe you're thinking about how to improve your health over the long term. Some people even start during cancer treatment.
Making healthier choices
For many people, a diagnosis of cancer helps them focus on their health in ways they may not have thought much about in the past. Are there things you could do that might make you healthier? Maybe you could try to eat better or get more exercise. Maybe you could cut down on alcohol, or give up tobacco. Even things like keeping your stress level under control may help. Now is a good time to think about making changes that can have positive effects for the rest of your life. You will feel better and you will also be healthier.
You can start by working on those things that worry you most. Get help with those that are harder for you. For instance, if you are thinking about quitting smoking and need help, call the American Cancer Society for information and support at 1-800-227-2345.
Eating better
Eating right can be hard for anyone, but it can get even tougher during and after cancer treatment. This is especially true for cancers of the esophagus. The cancer or its treatment may affect how you swallow or cause other problems. Nausea can be a problem from some treatments. You may not feel like eating and lose weight when you don't want to. All of these things can be very frustrating.
During treatment: Many people lose weight or have taste problems during treatment. If this happens to you, do the best you can. Eat whatever appeals to you. Eat what you can, when you can. Now is not the time to restrict your diet. You may find it helps to eat small portions every 2 to 3 hours. Try to keep in mind that these problems usually improve over time. You may want to ask your cancer team about seeing a dietitian, an expert in nutrition who can give you ideas on how to fight some of the side effects of your treatment.
After treatment: Many patients have trouble with reflux after treatment. It may help to stay upright for several hours after eating.
In some patients, the stomach was used to replace all or part of the esophagus. This can mean that the stomach can't hold food for digestion like it did before. The food that is swallowed quickly passes into the intestine, leading to symptoms of diarrhea, sweating, and flushing after eating. This is called the dumping syndrome. This may mean you have to change your diet and how you eat. For example, you may need to eat smaller amounts of food more often.
Your health care team can help you adjust your diet if you are having problems eating.
One of the best things you can do after cancer treatment is to practice healthy eating habits. You may be surprised at the long-term benefits of some simple changes, like increasing the variety of healthy foods you eat. Getting to and staying at a healthy weight, eating a healthy diet, and limiting your alcohol intake may lower your risk for a number of types of cancer, as well as having many other health benefits.
For more information, see Nutrition and Physical Activity During and After Cancer Treatment: Answers to Common Questions.
Rest, fatigue, and exercise
Extreme tiredness, called fatigue, is very common in people treated for cancer. This is not a normal tiredness, but a bone-weary exhaustion that often doesn't get better with rest. For some people, fatigue lasts a long time after treatment, and can make it hard for them to be active and do other things they want to do. But exercise can help reduce fatigue. Studies have shown that patients who follow an exercise program tailored to their personal needs feel better physically and emotionally and can cope better, too.
If you were sick and not very active during treatment, it's normal for your fitness, endurance, and muscle strength to decline. Any plan for physical activity should fit your own situation. A person who has never exercised will not be able to take on the same amount of exercise as someone who plays tennis twice a week. If you haven't been active in a few years, you will have to start slowly – maybe just by taking short walks.
Talk with your health care team before starting anything. Get their opinion about your exercise plans. Then, try to find an exercise buddy so you're not doing it alone. Having family or friends involved when starting a new activity program can give you that extra boost of support to keep you going when the push just isn't there.
If you are very tired, you will need to learn to balance activity with rest. It's OK to rest when you need to. Sometimes it's really hard for people to allow themselves to rest when they are used to working all day or taking care of a household, but this is not the time to push yourself too hard. Listen to your body and rest when you need to. (For more information on dealing with fatigue, see Fatigue in People With Cancer and Anemia in People With Cancer.)
Keep in mind exercise can improve your physical and emotional health.
- It improves your cardiovascular (heart and circulation) fitness.
- Along with a good diet, it will help you get to and stay at a healthy weight.
- It makes your muscles stronger.
- It reduces fatigue and helps you have more energy.
- It can help lower anxiety and depression.
- It can make you feel happier.
- It helps you feel better about yourself.
And long term, we know that getting regular physical activity plays a role in helping to lower the risk of some cancers, as well as having other health benefits.
