We are so lucky to have had the chance to stay here at this national house.
The staff made us feel so very welcome offering us drinks and snacks in the courtyard garden which is an oasis.
The room is compact but very welcoming and in the traditional Ottaman style
Breakfast was varied and we even got our own private...
We stayed here for two nights and couldnt recommend it highly enough. We have a young baby and found the staff truly wonderful helping us in any way that they could. The room was a little small with the baby but there was plenty of safe enough areas outside in the enclosed court yard for playing.
Top 10 Hotel in the World for 2010.Nice historical rooms and delicious breakfast.We booked nice pasha suite room that is on the top floor.
This house is definitely underrated. You should definitely make a trip here. It only costs 2 euros or so and the guide takes you around the house and explains the history of the family. She explained the cultural history and architectural history. Although it is also a hotel, we did not see any guests. The house was beautiful and over...
I visited this house and it was a terrible experience. It's a museum house and a hotel... at the same time... basically the same spaces... it's really, really awkward to go up some stairs and having hotel guests running to close their rooms doors before us, the "museum" visitors could get there... and still have a vision of an older...
My husband and I stayed at the Muslibegovic House in October. It was quite a unique experience. Each person we came into contact with was extremely helpful from the very beginning including helping my husband park our car in this tight residential area to our tour of the home. The proprietor, who was born in this beautiful Turkish home, was...
This is such a fantastic hotel! The owners are extremely helpful and just great people who will welcome you with such hospitality! The hotel premises are simply amazing and very well kept. You will get a good sleep in the traditional rooms and have a great start to your morning with the great breakfast. We were completely blown away. Only...
Is this a tourist museum or a hotel or tourist trap? The building is tastefully decorated, but what's up with the manequins? I wanted to like this place, but I felt like I was just visiting a tourist trap and not a museum.
Since its a hotel, you're not allowed in the guestrooms. So you're walking through a couple of very well-preserved Ottoman era spaces, and seeing many closed doors.
But then after a few minutes you realize that you paid 4 KM to walk through the common areas of a hotel!
We found this small hotel on the internet and had extremely lovely stay for three nights. This three hundred year old Ottoman style home has been charmingly converted to a hotel. The staff was delightfully helpful and friendly. I can't recommend this establishment enough.

As much as we hate to admit it, S.C. Lt. Gov. Andre Bauer has once again surprised us with a bold, brilliant political move.
By taking his name out of the running for the Republican gubernatorial nomination in 2010 (should S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford resign), Bauer has effectively positioned himself as the one person in this whole saga who is actually looking out for the people of South Carolina. In the process, he's made his would-be political opponents in 2010 look like opportunistic hacks who care only about their personal political futures.
Is Bauer for real? Sources close to the Lt. Governor say "absolutely." Is he sincere in his intent? We highly doubt it.
Of course, Bauer's sincerity (or lack thereof) doesn't change the fact that his announcement puts him in the enviable position of being perceived as politically pure – thus eroding some of the ground beneath Sanford's feet.
How so?
Well, since admitting to an extramarital affair last week, Sanford has reportedly been propped up by a shaky alliance of his staunchest political allies and the empire of Richard Quinn and Associates, which manages the political destiny of S.C. Attorney General Henry McMaster.
McMaster, for reasons surpassing understanding, is also widely viewed as a 2010 gubernatorial prospect.
Not wanting Bauer to gain a foothold in the Governor's Office prior to the 2010 election, McMaster and the rest of the Quinn stable of clients have been downplaying talk of investigations and calls for Sanford to step down. Particularly vocal in that process has been U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, arguably Quinn's most influential client.
With Bauer now removing himself from the 2010 picture (again, should Sanford step down), does Quinn remove that prop that's been helping hold the governor up?
If it does, Sanford could be in real trouble.
Of course, as brilliant as Bauer's latest move is, his political team has been decidedly less-than-stealth in executing its strategy up to this point. They have also alienated some powerful potential allies with ill-advised and downright dumb tactics aimed at inducing a particular response.
So how will Bauer's latest move play out?
Assuming his team can keep from coughing up the ball, it could be one of the smartest political decisions we've seen in some time.

The Nolan family were angered last week when internet trolls claimed cancer-stricken Bernie had died.
Rumours were rife on Twitter and Facebook.
And even the respected internet encyclopaedia Wikipedia was changed to say she had died last Wednesday.
One Twitter user wrote: "Apologies for my Bernie Nolan tweet last night, it appears someone thought it would be just hilarious to pretend she was dead."
And another said: "Bizarre that I see Bernie Nolan dead, when it's just Twitter wildfire rumour."
But the Nolan family were quick to hit back at the upsetting rumours. Sister Coleen, 48, wrote: "Just to let everyone know AGAIN!! Bernie is still with us and continues to fight everyday! Don't know who or why someone is saying otherwise."
Bernie's niece Kirsty Louise Doneathy was also bombarded with messages from friends asking if Bernie had died.
In the end she had to text her uncle Steve – Bernie's husband – to find out if it was true.
Another Twitter user wrote: "Over on Facebook some t***s posted RIP Bernie Nolan, she's not f****** dead you moron."
A family friend said: "Bernie's nearest and dearest went into panic mode when they heard that she had died.
"There were lots of comments on Twitter, people saying 'rest in peace' and 'sorry to hear the sad news'.
"But when they heard it wasn't true, worry turned to anger."
Brave Bernie is living out her last days with her family. Last week Steve revealed their home had been ransacked while Bernie had a spell in a hospice.
The singer-actress says she wants to be buried alongside their first daughter Kate, who was stillborn in 1997.

More than 173 Million People Gathered at "Stand Up, Take Action, End Poverty Now!" events, setting new world record for largest mobilization in history
A Guinness World Record shattered this weekend when 173,045,325 citizens gathered at over 3,000 events in more than 120 countries, demanding that their governments eradicate extreme poverty and achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). "Stand Up, Take Action, End Poverty Now!", now in its fourth year, has been certified by Guinness World Records as the largest mobilization of human beings in recorded history, an increase of about 57 million people over last year.
"The more than 173 million people who mobilized this weekend sent a clear message to world leaders that there is massive, universal, global demand for eradicating poverty and achieving the Millennium Development Goals," said Salil Shetty, Director of the United Nations Millennium Campaign. "In particular, we have seen citizens determined to show their governments that they will hold them accountable for keeping their promises to end hunger, improve maternal health and abolish trade-distorting agricultural subsidies. They will not accept excuses for breaking promises to the world's poorest and most vulnerable people, who have already been hardest hit by the global food, economic and climate crises they had no role in causing."
In Asia more than 100 million people participated (101,106,845); in Africa more than 37 million people participated (37,848,412); in the Arab region more than 31 million people participated (31,394,459); in Europe more than 2 million people participated (2,102,121); in Latin America more than 200,000 people participated (229,371); in North America nearly 200,000 people participated (191,535); and in Oceania more than 170,000 people participated (172,582).
The 3,000 events this weekend included:
In New York, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon lead schoolchildren in Standing Up on Friday.
In Bangladesh, civil society campaigners raised the call "National Unity Can Eradicate Poverty," urging that a "Poverty and Hunger Free Bangladesh is Possible Now." The Prime Minister led the nation in pledging to remain united to develop the country by 2020. At a rally in Dhaka, she called upon all political parties to jointly fight corruption and stabilize democracy.
Despite the typhoons that hit the Philippines just before "Stand Up," 35.5 million people in the country Stood Up and the "I Vote for MDGs" campaign, a survey on the issues voters believe should be prioritized by the 2010 Presidential candidates, was launched.
In Nepal the President read a Stand Up Pledge with members of the Constituent assembly at an event broadcast live on national television, followed by a concert in a large open-air theatre in the heart of Kathmandu.
In the United States, the Irish band U2 brought 50,000 concertgoers to their feet for a "Stand Up" moment during their October 18 concert in Norman, Oklahoma.
From Cape Town to Cairo and from Accra to Kampala, millions of Africans stood up in churches, mosques, schools, markets, streets and work places to call on their leaders to end poverty and inequality. In Uganda, the Local Government Association joined "Stand Up" by launching a historic award to honor the best-performing local government. The inaugural award was presented to the Kasese District.
In South Africa, housemates on the hit television show "Big Brother" made passionate appeals to world leaders to end poverty and led the continent in reading the "Stand Up" pledge, collected food for disadvantaged children and wrote a song on poverty. They called on African leaders to stop maternal death, end hunger and address climate change.
In Nigeria, legendary African artist Femi Kuti led over 60,000 people attending the annual event commemorating the life of his late father Fela Kuti, in pledging their commitment to campaigning fervently against poverty and injustice. Femi urged participants at the festival to be bold when holding their governments accountable, noting that Africa has enough resources to end poverty. Accusing African leaders of mismanaging public resources through corruption and poor governance, he called on them to focus more attention on programs leading to the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals.
At Federation Square, Melbourne, a concert organized by Make Poverty History Australia and AusAID included a flash mob stunt and performances by entertainers including Diafrix, a musical group of African refugees.
Citizens of Papua New Guinea Stood Up for the first time this year, in churches and government buildings, with support from the government Department of Community Development.
In Halifax, Canada, citizens marched against poverty in a rally organized by Make Poverty History.
In Italy, more than 400,000 people participated in 200 sports events across the country. The people of L'Aquila, which was hit by a devastating earthquake in April, ran a marathon to show their support.
In Paris, the streets were invaded by 4,000 roller-bladers on Sunday proudly sporting 'Stand Up, Take Action, End Poverty Now!' t-shirts.
In Spain, coordinated marches nationwide included a rally in Madrid on October 16 which was followed by an outdoor concert featuring Spanish rock bands.
Peru was one of several countries which used "Stand Up" to start a process of climate justice hearings aimed at gathering the testimonies of people whose lives and livelihoods are being destroyed by global warming.
"Stand Up" was also supported by the entire United Nations system, with events organized by United Nations Information Centers (UNICs) across the globe. In Egypt, for example, 25 million worshippers Stood Up in mosques, more than 2 million worshippers Stood Up in Coptic Orthodox churches and thousands more Stood Up in schools across the country, in a mobilization organized by the UNIC in Egypt.
Hundreds of people gathered on October 16 at the International Labor Organisation (ILO) headquarters in Geneva to Stand Up Against Poverty in a joint action with UNDP and UN agencies, led by ILO Director-General Juan Somavia.

China's factory towns fall quiet
Many smaller factories in China's manufacturing heartland are closing early for the Lunar New Year, beset by weak orders and spiralling costs
Scores of factories in the manufacturing heartlands of the mainland have closed earlier than usual for the Lunar New Year owing to weak orders and rising costs, workers and owners say, suggesting a rocky outlook for a key sector of the economy.
While official trade data remains mildly positive, visits to five factory towns in coastal industrial hubs found that in some areas perhaps a third of manufacturers had begun closing weeks before the holiday starting late this month.
In some cases anaemic orders from key markets such as the United States and Europe were blamed. Others factories were being forced to curtail production because of the chronic labour shortage of recent years.
"Lots of people have left already. I would say around a third of the workers," said Ren Lipeng, a factory worker riding a rusty bicycle along a dusty avenue where many shops and restaurants were shuttered.
Factories in the Pearl River Delta and the eastern Yangtze River Delta were noticeably quieter this week.
In the south, many smaller plants had closed, with a stream of migrant workers crowding train and bus stations as they headed home in an annual exodus for up to six weeks of unpaid leave, far longer than in previous years.
With analysts expecting the mainland to soon announce its slowest annual economic growth rate for more than a decade, Beijing has stepped up efforts to wean the economy off its heavy reliance on investment and exports in favour of higher domestic consumption.
Trade, however, remains a hugely important economic engine as China attempts the difficult balancing act of maintaining its official target rate of growth at 7.5 per cent while shifting the economy away from lower-end manufacturing. Official export numbers showed mild growth in December.
"Business has been quite sluggish still in terms of exports, manufacturing, and most orders have been delivered," said Kevin Lai, economist at Daiwa Capital Markets in Hong Kong.
"I would be very careful reading the headline numbers because in November it was very strong at 12.7 per cent but I believe much of that was inflated."
China's export growth slowed to 4.3 per cent in December from a year earlier. Shipments to the US and Europe slowed from double digits in November to just 3.9 per cent and 3 per cent in December respectively, official data showed.
At the Heng Fa Plastic products factory in Dongguan just a handful of workers were manning moulding machines making frames for flat screen televisions.
Owner Huang Peijiang said orders for the Christmas holiday season had been down 30 per cent compared with 2012.
"For every 100 factory owners here, I'd say 80 are struggling," he said, with a shake of his head.
In the Yangtze River Delta town of Kunshan, those still working in some major plants, including a Foxconn facility that assembles Apple products, said they had worked less overtime than last year.
"This year was pretty bleak for Foxconn," said Du Xiaoying, manager of Hongda Labour Dispatch, one of a dozen employment agencies across the street from the Foxconn factory. "They did not offer much overtime."
The giant factory would not close for the holiday until January 25, Du and other nearby employers said.
"Around Chinese New Year we hire less, but more during July-August to prepare for the high season," said Foxconn Group spokesman Louis Woo, referring to the firm's hiring at its various production facilities.
"Speaking in terms of the whole of last year, we hired more than the previous year, and our revenue was also higher."
Interviews with half a dozen factory bosses and suppliers suggested that certain sectors, including construction materials and low-end, labour intensive industries such as toys and textiles, seem to be struggling more.
"Besides high-end electronics, the situation is bad. Toys are bad, clothing too in terms of orders," said Danny Lau, the honorary chairman of Hong Kong's Small and Medium Enterprises Association.
Ben Schwall, president of Systems Technology Group, which exports lighting fixtures and works with around 25 factories on the mainland, estimates since the start of January that 80 per cent of them have had problems with workers leaving early for Lunar New Year.
"They're saying: I can come back here any time, and I know you're going to re-hire me," he said.

Working for missing children
After I read your article dated Jan. 30, Pequot Lakes parents warned of offender I felt the need to address what I feel parents should know.
Every year there are approximately 800,000 reported missing children. The vast majority of these cases are runaways (630,000) where the child leaves of their own accord. Studies suggest that these children are at extreme risk for assault and exploitation, but it's worth asking, what these children are running away from. About 300,000 of those children reported missing turn out to be benign cases and the child is unharmed. Nearly half of those reported missing, however, are taken by someone the child and their family knows and trusts. Of the 58,000 non-family related abductions that occur each year, just 3 percent are strangers, but the motivation is very often to sexually abuse and/or exploit the child.
It is important to note that most offenders don't use force. They use and abuse trust, first to gain access to children and then to manipulate or frighten them into quietly accepting the abusive situation.
Depending upon the study, the statistics vary slightly, but it is conservatively estimated that 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 10 boys are sexually assaulted before the age of 14; the rate goes up to 1 in 3 and 1in 6 by the time the children are 18. This is a pandemic issue that is devastating the lives of children in every socio-economic strata in the nation!
These facts and many more are the reason that I along with others parents (who met while we were in Washington D.C. lobbying for the Adam Walsh Act, which was signed into law July 27, 2006) formed the Surviving Parents Coalition (SPC) www.SPCoalition.org. Our Mission: To advocate for legislation that will aid in the prevention of crimes against children and young adults; especially child sexual abuse, sexual assault, exploitation, abduction and murder.
I'm currently working along side of Minnesota's State Public Safety Committee to help our state to come into compliance with the Adam Walsh Act, which includes the Dru Sjodin National Sex Offender Public Website. I encourage you to help the Surviving Parents Coalition by writing to those that have the means to pass and fund laws that will help to ensure the safety of our nation's No. 1 asset, our children.
LINDA WALKER of Pequot Lakes is the mother of of Dru Sjodin, who was abducted from the parking lot of a Grand Forks, N.D., shopping mall and killed in 2003.

Bush links Saudi raid to Iraq poll
Page Tools
While the President stands by the election date, questions are being raised about security at American missions.
A branch of al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the bloody assault on the US consulate in Jeddah as President George Bush tied the attack with the forthcoming elections in neighbouring Iraq.
Mr Bush described Monday's brazen daylight attack, which left nine people dead, as part of a broader campaign by Islamic extremists to drive Americans from the Middle East.
"The attacks in Saudi Arabia remind us that the terrorists are still on the move," Mr Bush said. "They want us to leave Saudi Arabia. They want us to leave Iraq."
Speaking in the Oval Office alongside Iraq's interim President, Ghazi al-Yawar, Mr Bush offered no specific information linking the Saudi attacks with the Iraqi elections, scheduled for January 30.
But he said it fitted a pattern in which radicals "will do anything they can to stop democracy", and he reaffirmed his opposition to delaying the vote.
Five attackers stormed through a fortified gate into the sprawling US consulate compound, starting a three-hour gun battle that left five consulate employees and four of the attackers dead.
No Americans were killed in the raid, but the attackers' rapid penetration of the compound raised questions about the vulnerability of American diplomatic sites, even after a concerted campaign to make them more secure.
The Saudi wing of al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack in an internet statement. "This operation is part of al-Qaeda's plan to fight the crusaders and Jews and to expel infidels from the Arabian Peninsula. The mujahideen (holy fighters) will continue firmly on their path," it said.
It was not possible to verify the authenticity of the statement which also said that two of the group's fighters were killed while others had been wounded but managed to escape.
The militant group codenamed its operation the "Fallujah attack" - after the western Iraqi city where US-led forces launched an offensive to crush insurgents, including supporters of al-Qaeda ally Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Monday's attack brought a huge swathe of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia's financial and trade hub, to a standstill. News of the raid was also followed by a small jump in world oil prices.
Mr Bush's attempt to draw a connection between the Saudi attack and Iraq struck some foreign policy specialists as an over-simplification that ignored the complicated web of alliances and animosities that characterise the Middle East.
Rather than an attack on democracy, they said, the attack probably stemmed from the long-running struggle by Islamic extremists against Saudi Arabia's undemocratic, Washington-backed monarchy.
"It's a fatuous connection," said James Steinberg, who was deputy national security adviser under Bill Clinton. "It's a bad thing, but it has nothing to do with the Iraqi election. They're trying to undermine the Saudis."
"We know that al-Qaeda is not dead in Saudi Arabia," said Mai Yamani, a Saudi analyst. "Saudi Arabia is a base for al-Qaeda, culturally, financially and ideologically. Al-Qaeda is Saudi-born and nurtured."

Hip keeps Hewitt on the hop
Lleyton Hewitt.
Photo: Getty Images
LLEYTON Hewitt is bracing himself to play through the pain barrier for his 10th Wimbledon campaign after a nagging hip problem brought him undone at the French Open.
Hewitt faces an intense rehabilitation schedule on the injured hip in a bid to be fit for Queen's (starting next Monday) and Wimbledon (starting on June 23).
The complaint returned to trouble him during his five-set loss to fifth-seeded claycourt star David Ferrer at Roland Garros, leaving Australia without a singles player entering the second week.
The South Australian took a medical timeout before the fourth set of his 6-2, 3-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 loss to Ferrer, over three hours 35 minutes, to have heat cream applied to the injury, which had kept him sidelined for six weeks.
"It was pretty sore the third, fourth and fifth sets," Hewitt said. "It's still not 100%. I will try to do everything I can to get as close to 100% for Wimbledon. But considering that I've had it for quite a while, I don't think it's going to drastically improve overnight. So the chances are I'm going to have to play with a bit of pain at Wimbledon and, hopefully, I can get through with it."
Hewitt was smarting after his third-round exit despite putting up a trademark spirited fight. For the Australian, any sense of pride over what he had achieved against Ferrer would come later.
"Not right now, but probably later on when I look back on it," Hewitt said. "You can't come in and expect a whole heap when I wasn't 100% coming into the tournament. Hopefully, in a couple weeks' time, these matches would have helped me going into Wimbledon that's the biggest positive, I think, to take out of it."
Apart from Hewitt taking a little too long to read his opponent early in the match and playing a couple of errant shots, there was not much separating him and Ferrer.
Even if his hip is hurting, on the strength of his performance on the unforgiving clay of Roland Garros, it is hard to imagine Hewitt not putting in an impressive showing on grass, a surface he much prefers.
Compatriot Casey Dellacqua, who reached the women's third round before also losing to a true claycourter in 19-year-old Spanish qualifier Carla Suarez Navarro, said earlier she saw no reason why Australian players could not compete on the red surface. Dellacqua found a winning formula in spending a month on European clay in the lead-up to Roland Garros.
But Hewitt believed performances like his and Dellacqua's would remain exceptions to the Australian rule that clay is trouble.
"Right at the moment, it's very hard to say that we're going to have, in the years to come, guys that can come over here and compete," Hewitt said. "Because if you come over six weeks earlier, it doesn't mean you're a claycourt specialist and you've got a chance at winning the French Open.
"You have to have clay in your backyard and be training on it from 13 years of age, I think, so it's a bit hard for us."
Ferrer was full of praise for Hewitt, whose ranking has slipped to 28th because of injury over the past year.
"At the end of the year, he's going to be one of the best," the Spaniard said.

* The Right Opinion
– I'm going to keep things relatively short today. I've decided to finish my book. It's something I've been working at for over a year and I've never really focused on getting it done. I won't say too much about it, but I will say it involves some of my favourite topics.
– Another reason to keep things short? I'm working on my column for OurHometown.ca. It should be posted online in the next 24 hours.
* Another nail for the global warming coffin.
Global warming policies might be bad for your health
- Poverty is a Much Larger Public Health Threat than Global Warming
- • The contribution of diseases of poverty (e.g., underweight, malnutrition,
unsafe water, poor sanitation and hygiene) to the global burden of death
and disease is currently 70–80-fold larger than that of global warming. (Table
2; Figure 1; WHO 2009)
- • Deaths from diseases of poverty and excess winter mortality are real
(WHO 2009; Falagas 2009), whereas those from global warming are based
on hypotheses and models which short-circuited the scientific method and
have not been tested rigorously (McMichael et al. 2004, p. 1546).
* Wikipedia is not a reliable source.
Obama 'Forward' campaign slogan inspires Wikipedia editing war – The Daily Caller
My favourite part of the story?
- But for every attempt to be somewhat serious, another relied on stand-up comedy.
- "Seriously, what a strange slogan," one nameless editor wrote Wednesday evening. "You'd think they'd want to go backwards… back to when people had jobs… back to when health care was affordable… back before Obama ate Bo cause he had the munchies."
* These people are insane!
It's hard to imagine someone actually producing this.

I don't play video games. Well, I do have one game on my PC, which I sometimes play online with some friends. It may be a generational thing, but I just didn't really get into them. Based on some of the figures I've seen, and a couple that I own, I know for a fact that I'm missing out on some cool stuff. It doesn't stop me from admiring the art, or enjoying figures based on characters from those games. Which brings me to Miss Nobody. She comes from the eroge Zoku Satsuriku no Jango, a stylized Space Western full of scantily clad babes toting big guns. Move over Clint-Eastwood-Man-With-No-Name guy, there's a new broad in town.
I'd like to call Alter's Miss Nobody my Holy Grail figure, but the same would apply to the other hard-to-find figures on my list, so it wouldn't be fair. She was, though, very high up on my list of Must Haz Figgur!! I can't believe I just did that.
Come, follow me after the jump, and I'll introduce you to her.
Another terrific figure. I've been getting lucky with that recently. I was afraid that once I got her I'd be somehow disappointed, but not only did she not disappoint, she was better than anticipated. The colors, for example, are a bit toned down, which works great for the Western motif. Nothing flashy here. She is really well proportioned, too, from the top of the hat to the pointy tips of her boots.
The box she comes in is very blah. Windows in front and back, with little windows on either side, and a couple of pictures of Miss Nobody. A little flimsy, I think, but she is well protected inside. The form fitting plastic clam shell thing, with plenty of little bits of plastic sheeting, keep her snug and safe from harm.
A super dynamic pose. I see lots of movement from the short cape, the long hair trailing away, her leg in mid-stride. But once she's on her base, she's almost facing away from us. The "front" of the figure, in relation to the base, is an eye full of her Pepperbox, and her very shapely behind.
As you rotate her counter-clockwise, the "front" of Miss Nobody finally comes into view. Quite shapely she is, and strong, too, as she appears to be handling both the Colt and the Pepperbox with ease. Her skin seems a bit on the pale side, considering how little she's wearing while being exposed to desert-like conditions. I can live with it, though.
As we continue rotating her, we get a better look at her Army Colt, but we lose other details as her cape and hair come into view. I love the cape. I love the color, a matte black that reflects nothing, and I love how the shoulders are layered. The white trim actually works pretty well, too, and her hair just looks great.
Here we get a better look at the hair. I have a thing for hair, I admit. Funky hair seams, or globs of paint just turn me off. Yuck. Here, we have well-executed and designed hair. From this angle, we also get a look at her holster. That big Colt will easily reach down to her knee once it's in the holster.
Here's a closeup of the Pepperbox. These are quite interesting, as they were the precursors to the single barrel revolvers we know today. They varied in size and number of barrels. Really cool pieces. The barrels on the piece Miss Nobody is holding are just there -- I think they should have made the holes deeper. The scroll work on the grip, though, is just nuts.
When you see a girl wearing a leotard type thing, with a mini-mini skirt over it, kinda leaning forward as she's kinda running, you're bound to get some cheesecake. In the case of Miss Nobody, this is a good thing. It also allows me to truly appreciate the effort she put into coordinating her outfit.
Miss Nobody's base is probably the worst I've seen. It's this bland, cheesy looking round piece of plastic with her name on it. Like a total after thought. "Oh, crap! We forgot the base!" But, they saved in the end by adding this bust/head thing with a tentacle looking thing dripping up. It may have some significance in the game, but here it's just a cool thing.
Everywhere you look on this figure you're going to find cool little details. I especially like the cross on the sole of her boot. It took me a while to really notice it. I was distracted by her other assets.
Miss Nobody's face is gorgeous. I just love those eyes. And she's smoking a cigarillo, as any good Western character should. She has a pretty nifty hat to top everything off. That skull and bones would make any pirate proud.
I could go on and on, but you guys get the idea. The good: she's absolutely gorgeous, and would be a fine addition to any collection. The bad: she's a few years old, is hard to find, and expensive. She's well worth the effort and expense, though. What do you think? Is she someone you'd be interested in finding? Let me know.
PS- Here's a sample eBay search. I'm not suggesting you buy here, but this will give you an idea of her rarity.Photo Gallery: (30 images)

Robert Parker(2000 Vintage) "I tend to underestimate Vieux-Chateau-Certan. The strong performance of this 2000 offers persuasive evidence that I am consistently too strict in my evaluations of this elegant but authoritatively flavored Pomerol. The 2000 is a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. It is an elegant wine.. Its saturated ruby/purple color is followed by an exceptional bouquet of blackberries, cassis, spice box, licorice, and minerals. Deep and full-bodied, with great intensity, trem...

The Memoirs of Louis XIV HTML version
Henrietta Of England, The First Wife Of Monsieur,
Brother Of Louis XIV
It is true that the late Madame was extremely unhappy; she confided too much in people
who betrayed her: she was more to be pitied than blamed, being connected with very
wicked persons, about whom I could give some particulars. Young, pretty and gay, she
was surrounded by some of the greatest coquettes in the world, the mistresses of her
bitterest foes, and who sought only to thrust her into some unfortunate situation and to
embroil her with Monsieur. Madame de Coetquen was the Chevalier de Lorraine's
mistress, although Madame did not know it; and she contrived that the Marechal de
Turenne should become attached to her. Madame having told the Marshal all her secrets
respecting the negotiations with England, he repeated them to his mistress, Madame de
Coetquen, whom he believed to be devoted to his mistress. This woman went every night
to the Chevalier de Lorraine and betrayed them all. The Chevalier used this opportunity
to stir up Monsieur's indignation against Madame, telling him that he passed with the
King for a simpleton, who could not hold his tongue; that he would lose all confidence,
and that his wife would have everything in her own hand. Monsieur wished to know all
the particulars from Madame; but she refused to tell him her brother's secrets, and this
widened the breach between them. She became enraged, and had the Chevalier de
Lorraine and his brother driven away, which in the end cost her own life; she, however,
died with the consciousness of never having done her husband any harm. She was the
confidante of the King, to whom it had been hinted that it might be expedient to give
some employment to Monsieur, who might otherwise make himself beloved in the Court
and in the city. For this reason the King assisted Madame in her affairs of gallantry, in
order to occupy his brother. I have this from the King himself. Madame was besides in
great credit with her brother, Charles II. (of England). Louis XIV. wished to gain him
over through his sister, wherefore it was necessary to take part with her, and she was
always better treated than I have been. The late Monsieur never suspected his wife of
infidelity with the King, her brother-in-law, he told me, all her life, and would not have
been silent with respect to this intrigue if he had believed it. I think that with respect to
this great injustice is done to Madame. It would have been too much to deceive at once
the brother and the nephew, the father and the son.
The late Monsieur was very much disturbed at his wife's coquetry; but he dared not
behave ill to her, because she was protected by the King.
The Queen-mother of England had not brought up her children well: she at first left them
in the society of femmes de chambre, who gratified all their caprices; and having
afterwards married them at a very early age, they followed the bad example of their
mother. Both of them met with unhappy deaths; the one was poisoned, and the other died
in child-birth.
Monsieur was himself the cause of Madame's intrigue with the Comte de Guiche. He was
one of the favourites of the late Monsieur, and was said to have been handsome once.
Monsieur earnestly requested Madame to shew some favour to the Comte de Guiche, and

Flyers draft pick Cousins, local player both return to OHL club
Posted By Dave Isaac On September 7, 2012 @ 4:24 pm In Uncategorized | No Comments
The OHL team's general manager, Kyle Dubas, announced in a press release [1] that Cousins, Petaccio and Phoenix Coyotes 2011 draft pick Andrew Fritsch are permitted to take part in team activities. The three players were charged with sexual assault in late August and all three are due in court on Oct. 1.
"These players will continue to fulfill various continuing commitments of the wellness program, including continued counseling and measures recommended and required by the wellness program," Dubas said in the press release.
"Our club feels for everyone who has had their lives impacted by these allegations, including the alleged victim. We will continue to do everything within our power to appropriately support those for whom our Club has responsibility, and whom with we can appropriately communicate with given that the legal process is now underway."
The Greyhounds are scheduled to play an exhibition game against the Saginaw Spirit on Saturday night in Saginaw. It is unknown if the three charged players will participate. They have not participated in any of training camp, which started Aug. 29. By extension, they also missed Thursday night's preseason opener, a 4-3 shootout loss to the Sudbury Wolves.
The regular season opens for the Greyhounds on Sept. 21.

Last week, I talked about the many wonderful benefits of natural vitamin C. I also covered why ascorbic acid isn't the best source of vitamin C, even though it's the most common vitamin C supplement on the shelves. If you're ready to jump into boosting your vitamin C intake with natural sources, you might be surprised at how easy and tasty it's going to be!
Food Sources of Vitamin C
The US recommended dietary allowance for vitamin C is 90 milligrams per day for a grown man and 75 milligrams per day for a grown woman. That means that women need at least 75 milligrams ("mg") a day and men need at least 90. It is so easy to get more than this from a decently healthy diet!
- 1 papaya= 185mg (more than double what we need!)
- 1 mango= 122mg
- 1 cup raw bell pepper= 115mg
- 1 cup strawberries= 85mg
- 1 cup raw broccoli= 80mg
- 1 cup pineapple= 78mg
- 1 kiwi= 72mg
- 1 orange= 70mg
- 1 cups cantalope= 58mg
- 1 cup cooked kale= 53mg
- 1 cup raw cauliflower= 51mg
- 1/2 grapefruit= 44mg
- 1 cup cooked greens= about 35mg
- 1 cup raspberries= 32mg
- 1 cup cooked swiss chard= 31mg
- 1/4 cup lemon or lime juice= 28mg
See how easy it is?? We often each have a kiwi in the afternoon. We do chocolate-dipped strawberries once or twice a week, while they're in season. Just the other day, my girls scarfed down a mango. We love cooked greens and we enjoy pineapples and raspberries, when they're in season. (Wondering when fruits and veggies are in season? Subscribe to my e-mails and you'll find a link to a free printable that lists fruits and veggies by month!)
Now, let's say that you'd like an extra boost in your vitamin C intake. Maybe you have a chronic illness or you want something special on-hand for cold season. Let's pull out the herbs!
Herbal Sources of Vitamin C
There are so many wonderful herbs to choose from, but I'll list a few tried and true herbs high in vitamin C.
- Camu-Camu: This is a small fruit from the rainforest. It's similar to a cherry and is eaten as a food, though it's very tart. Camu-camu powder can be put in capsules (learn how to make your own herbal capsules!) or added to smoothies, to help cover the taste. Along with it's unparalled vitamin C content, these berries appear to have some strong anti-viral properties, which would make this a good choice during a cold.
- Indian Gooseberry: Another fruit that can be dried, powdered and either encapsulated or mixed with foods and drinks, this is a healthy and easy way to boost vitamin C. We often add indian gooseberry powder to our smoothies.
- Acerola Berries: Yet another berry that is cram-packed full of vitamin C. Again, this is an easy one to use in capsules or add to food and drink.
- Rose Hips: Fresh rose hips are very high in vitamin C, but be careful about buying rose hip supplements. Much of the vitamin C can be lost during processing and companies often add synthetic vitamin C to replace it.
All of these herbs (fruits, actually) are a fantastic way to boost your vitamin C, on top of a healthy diet full of fresh fruits and veggies!

Technical Proceedings of the 2007 NSTI Nanotechnology Conference and Trade Show, Volume 3
Chapter 3: Sensors & MEMS
MEMS Humidity Structure with Cantilever – Simulation of Behaviour
|P. Suchanek and M. Husak
|Czech Technical University in Prague, CZ
|225 - 228
|sensor, humidity, cantileve, MEMS, simulation, design, polymers
|The aim of this paper is to report the design of the simple polymers structure humidity sensors and its mechanical and piezorezistive simulation in CoventorWare. Acquired simulation data gets a primary image about sizes bend and surface strain on micro-cantilever which forms sensing part of sensor. For precise simulation of micro-electro-mechanic systems (MEMS) is used integrated set of tools in programme CoventorWare. The primary part of structure sensor is micro-cantilever made of thin silicon wafer which has a rectangular shape. The gas humidity reacts with hygroscopic polymer deposited on the surface of micro-cantilever. Humidity creates stress in micro-cantilever. The best way of scanning bend on micro-cantilever is using resistive strain gauge connected into Wheaston bridge, which is located in the place with the biggest surface strain because of the biggest change resistivity. CoventorWare software tools have been used for simulation and modeling of sensor properties. With this structure we did mechanical and piezo-resistive simulation in programme CoventorWare. This simulation gave us information about size of micro-cantilever bend and size of surface straining on the micro-cantilever surface and resistivity changes in resistive strain gauges. A new approach to structure simulation and model creation was used. New structure arrangement of humidity sensor was used.

Bafta film awards, the latest stop on the awards circus as the whole shebang picks up speed on the way to the Oscars. Tonight's grand showdown looks (on paper at least) to be a three-way tussle between The Artist, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Hugo, which lead the field with 12, 11 and nine nominations respectively. The Artist's run towards the crowning best film Oscar looks all but unstoppable but Tinker Tailor may well step in to spoil the party here this evening. Having been completely shut out at the Golden Globes, Tomas Alfredson's superbly dank and stealthy adaptation of the John le Carré best-seller has the home turf advantage here and must fancy its chances in some of the major categories. Time will tell.Welcome to the freeze-dried heart of wintry London for tonight's
In the meantime, the red carpet plays host to a trundling parade of homegrown and Hollywood celebrities: all of them punch-drunk and befuddled from too long on the circuit. The route has taken them from the Globes to the DGA to the Writers' Guild to the Peoria Press Gala (assuming that one's still going) and after a while it must all start to blur. The carpet's the same, the food is the same, and they are surrounded, any given Sunday, by the same mass of faces they saw last week. "It's nice," says George Clooney, standing manfully in the chill outside the Royal Opera House. "I get to see a lot of people I've been seeing a lot of lately."
Sad to say that the red carpet is not for the likes of us. We snuck in the back way, through the stage-door, after which we hopped into the lift to the ballet studio which doubles as the press centre. Outside, there's Jon Hamm and Seth Rogen, Viola Davis and Christina Hendricks. Upstairs, there's us, inside the ballet studio, with mirrors on the wall and a barre, in case we feel the need to stretch our legs. The Baftas is sleek, stage-managed and segregated up the wazoo. Perhaps we can take inspiration from The Help, which tells us that segregation is wrong, that everyone is equal and that we should all just get along. Perhaps, by the end, we can all ride on the bus together, non-stop to the Bafta dinner; singing, singing all the way.
Out on the carpet, the talk is all of fashion. Some of the stars are wearing red and some are wearing blue. Some are clad in white, while some have plumped for cream. Brad Pitt is in Gucci. Rest easy in the knowledge that they are all "bang on trend" (not my words: the verdict of the red-carpet fashion expert).
In the meantime, the second wave of arrivals are running the gamut on their way to the steps. Look, there's Daniel Radcliffe and Michelle Williams, Ralph Fiennes, Michael Fassbender and Meryl Streep. Tom Jones rocks up to announce that he will be singing Thunderball at the start of the show and that this is "supposed to be a surprise".
How much of a surprise? I'm assuming the organisers know about it. It might be awkward if they didn't, and if it came as horrible ambush to their carefully prepared running order. It's an alarming prospect: the dignitaries all in their seats, Stephen Fry (our host for the night) making the introductions, when all of a sudden Tom Jones rears up in the wings, like a drunk uncle at a wedding, roaring about Thunderball. "He always runs where others talk. He acts while other men just talk La la la, la la la la! He's Thunderball!" Would they dare to bundle him off, or will they wince and cringe and let him carry on? We shall be keeping a close eye on the bouncers.
The voice from the heavens pipes up to tell us that the "Orange British Academy film awards will begin in five minutes". The carpet is quiet, all but bare of celebrities, who are now gathered safely inside, in the warm, awaiting the results. Some of them will go home tonight clutching those bronze mask Bafta statuettes, while others are doomed to go down in flames, cast out with nothing, desperately hailing a cab to take them to Palookaville.
Those distinctive bronze Bafta masks, of course, are used again after the ceremony. They are produced and worn during the super-secret after-show "winners' orgy", during which the victors cavort in the altogether, their identities concealed behind bronze masks. Reports suggests that this is a bit like that scene in Eyes Wide Shut, and it is a Bafta tradition that is as old as the hills. All being well, we shall be liveblogging that as well.
And still we wait, the tension ratcheting up in gradual, agonising degrees. Five minutes? Can it be that the Voice of God was lying to us? Down in the auditorium, the guests are fidgeting. I look out for Tom Jones, all set to barrel onto the stage screaming about Thunderball. At this rate, he may never ever get his chance.
And we're off: Bafta begins. The event commences, not with Oscar night razzle-dazzle, nor with a Globes-style celebrity roast. Instead, it opens with a sober address by Bafta chairman Tim Corrie, who pays tribute to the sponsor (Orange) and the venue (the Royal Opera House) before handing over to the "utterly beguiling" Stephen Fry, our host for the night. He exits, stage left, to respectful applause.
But no! It's not time for Fry, at least not yet. Because here, as predicted, comes Tom Jones. He arrives like a comet, he will not be stopped or silenced. He's roaring, roaring to the heavens about the man who looks at this world and wants it all, and who STRIKES like Thunderball. On and on he goes; he has a lot to say about this mysterious figure and he says it all in a rich, rolling baritone. Sometimes, it is true, he does repeat himself a little. "He STRIKES," he announces again at the end, "like Thunderball."
Still, the crowd seem to like it and I think that, by and large, Tom Jones got away with his surprise Bafta ambush. But he's best advised to quit while he's ahead. Try that kind of trick at the Oscars and they'll Taser him right away.
Now up steps Stephen Fry to welcome us all: "lords and Iron Ladies and media scum". Fry, it transpires, is deeply proud of British cinema, whether it be represented by James Bond or little Harry Potter. He then sees fit to welcome the TV audience by inviting Brad Pitt to blow a kiss to the camera. Pitt duly obliges - but he does so with a pained air and only after an awkward hesitation and I'm not sure his heart was in it. Already, it seems, his thoughts are turning to the Oscars. Surely Billy Crystal would never impose in such a way.
Anyway, life goes on. And the award for visual effects goes to Tim Burke, John Richardson, Greg Butler and David Vickery, for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (which surely must include Part 1 as well, what with it basically all being the self-same film. And if it doesn't, it's the first fully-fledged scandal of this year's Baftas)
You want the Bafta for best short film? You got it. Except scratch that, because we spoke too soon. The award actually goes to John Maclean and Geraldine O'Flynn for Pitch Black Heist, which apparently stars Michael Fassbender. They got it.
And from here we skip hurriedly to best short animation. This one goes to A Morning Stroll, directed by Grant Orchard and produced by Sue Goffe. The pair look to have been sat right at the back and take forever and a day to reach the stage. It's like they're re-enacting their own film in an evening setting.
Kim Novak). So The Artist converts the first of its 12 nominations. Chances are it won't be the last.It's the Bafta award for original music and it's the first prize of the night for The Artist. Composer Ludovic Bource steps up to accept the prize for his exuberant score to Michel Hazanavicius's silent-screen comedy, and there's few that would argue with that (save perhaps
Up step Tom Hiddleston and Jessica Brown Findlay to present the awards for sound and editing. Ms Brown Findlay appears to be suffering from a heavy cold; it's as if she's gargling on gravel. But she ploughs on like the professional she is and duly delivers the best sound Bafta to Hugo, which at least takes less time to say than Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 and thus spares her ailing larynx.
She then leaves Hiddleston to do the editing honours. And the Bafta goes to .... Gregers Sall and Chris King for Senna. So here it is: the first shock of the night, as Asif Kapadia's acclaimed yet unfancied documentary comes from behind to overtake the likes of Drive, Tinker Tailor, Hugo and The Artist. It's the sort of last-gasp, against the odds victory that Ayrton Senna would have been pleased with.
This time last year, Tom Hooper was cleaning up at all these awards with The King's Speech. This year he's back in the role of gracious grandee, on hand to present the Bafta award for cinematography to Guillaume Schiffman. Sad to say that Schiffman was indisposed (aka "couldn't be arsed to make the trip") and so his prize is picked up by the film's director. "He didn't even give me a speech to read," marvels Michel Hazanavicius. "So I guess he would thank ... me?"
Seconds later its time for costumes! Makeup! And hair! The costume award duly goes to Mark Bridges for The Artist and praise be, Bridges has shown up and says he will "treasure this always". The make-up and hair Bafta, meantime, is delivered to The Iron Lady, which seems fair. The Iron Lady was a silly, suspect film but it had two things going for it: Meryl Streep and Meryl Streep's hair. It's good to see the hair having its moment in the sun at last.
And with that, almost unnoticed,The Artist eases quietly (what else?) into pole position with three Baftas in total.
Here's Anil Kapoor ("a Holly-Bollywood actor," marvels Stephen Fry) to present the Bafta for best foreign language film. As ever, this is a strong category, finding room for Incendies, The Skin I Live In, A Separation, Pina and Potiche. I figured that the superb Iranian drama A Separation would probably win this one, but no. As ever, I'm wrong. Instead it goes to The Skin I Live In, Pedro Almodóvar's psycho-sexual Frankenstein tale, starring Antonio Banderas as a demented plastic surgeon. And on balance, that's not such a bad decision either.
After some amiable clowning by Bridesmaids stars Chris O'Dowd and Kristen Wiig, it's right down to the business of handing out the Bafta for "outstanding debut by a British writer, director or producer". The candidates: Attack the Block, Black Pond, Coriolanus, Submarine and Tyrannosaur.
The winner: Tyrannosaur, Paddy Considine's blistering kitchen-sink saga, starring Peter Mullen, Eddie Marsan and Olivia Coleman. "I love you too," roars Considine at the mic, making like Rocky Balboa throwing out love to Adrian after fighting Apollo Creed to a standstill. "Ooh, and what an amazing film Tyrannosaur is," coos Stephen Fry at the end. He sounds convincing but it's an unlikely image: Fry, sitting in his tux, perhaps stroking his cat, while watching the grinding poverty and no-hope lives unfold in Considine's film, and then shaking his head in sad, sweet sorrow at the horror of it all.
"Stroking his cat", by the way, is not intended as a euphemism.
Viola Davis is nominated in the best actress category for her turn in The Help, and yet here she is presenting the award for production design; kind of like a two-for-one deal. And the Bafta goes to ... Dante Ferretti and Francesca Lo Schiavo for Hugo. Again, this seems a reasonable result. Judged in terms of story and acting, Hugo could be a flat, brittle and tinny affair. The design, however, was a triumph; conjuring the station of Gare Montparnasse into a lavish fairytale spread.
From here we jump to one of the main events: the best supporting actor Bafta. This one is between Jim Broadbent (The Iron Lady), Jonah Hill (Moneyball), Christopher Plummer (Beginners), Kenneth Branagh (My Week with Marilyn) and Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Ides of March).
And the Bafta goes to ... Christopher Plummer. "He's not here! He's not here!" announces presenter Helena Bonham Carter, waving his bronze Bafta mask in the air. "I'll get it to him!". We're certain that she will. But we are also hoping that she doesn't see fit to wear the thing first at the hideous Bafta Masque of Lust we were hearing about earlier. Pray God that Helena is able to restrain herself and see that the award safely reaches its rightful owner.
Will it be Shame or We Need to Talk About Kevin? Tinker Tailor, My Week With Marilyn or the underdog Senna? The envelope is opened. And the Bafta is awarded to .... Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
This, of course, is terrific news for fans of Tomas Alfredson's prowling, potent espionage thriller. But - and at the risk of raining on its parade - it may also mean that the film now misses out on the crowning best film Bafta, where it is also nominated. That award now looks, more than ever, like The Artist's to lose.
"I'm glad I don't have to choose the winner out of such an outstandingly talented group!" chirrups Daniel Radcliffe, as he steps up to present the Bafta for best supporting actress. But he says this with such bland and beaming conviction that I instantly start to wonder if maybe he has; if maybe he's the one person who has decided where this award is going - if not every other award - and is now brightly claiming that it has nothing to do with him, like an employer laying off staff and then blaming it all on the other executives upstairs, the bastards. He's a smart and likable lad, but there's something faintly untrustworthy about him just the same. I think he might be laughing at us, behind his hand.
Anyway, the winner of the best supporting actress Bafta goes to Octavia Spencer, to set beside the Globe she won last month. Spencer, of course, wins for her exuberant turn as a rebellious housemaid in The Help. And Radcliffe, tellingly, looks highly pleased for her.
Onward, ever onward to the Bafta for best original screenplay, which pits The Artist against Bridesmaids, The Guard, The Iron Lady and Midnight in Paris.
But of course, it is no contest, the other pretenders are felled like ninepins and the Bafta goes to The Artist. "I am very suprised, because most people thought there was no script because there was no dialogue," jokes Michel Hazanavicius. "So the British people are very clever." The Artist now eases still further ahead, with four Baftas in total.
Now up comes Billy Bob Thornton to present a Bafta for "outstanding British contribution" to John Hurt, the splendidly acrid mainstay of Midnight Express and 1984, Tinker Tailor and The Naked Civil Servant.
The guests scramble to their feet as Hurt takes the stage and the applause is lengthy and heartfelt. "One of the difficult things about being given an award that you know are going to get is that you are expected to have had the time to write a speech," he confesses, and perhaps this is a hint for how Bafta can run these events in forthcoming years. Next year, maybe tell Kenneth Branagh that he's going to get the "outstanding British contribution" gong and then suddenly, shockingly give it to Derek Jacobi. That way you preserve the spontaneity, and it makes for good TV too.
Anyhow, until then we are left with John Hurt, who admits that his wife told him to just say thank-you and this is what he does. He thanks the guests and Bafta and those directors who were kind enough to make him "the addition to their imaginations". His speech is rambling, gracious and altogether charming. Maybe they can give this award to him again next year. That would be a nice surprise.
It is now time for the "Orange Wednesdays Rising Star award - by far the most prestigious midweek-based accolade that you can receive," quips Stephen Fry. It is presented by Christina Hendricks out of Mad Men and is decided by a "public vote". The contenders are Adam Deacon, Chris Hemsworth, Chris O'Dowd, Eddie Redmayne, John Hurt and Tom Hiddleston. Sorry, read that wrong: not John Hurt.
And the winner is ... Adam Deacon, star of Anuvahood, who seems a little dazed by the announcement. "This is mad, this is crazy, I can't believe I'm in the same place as Brad Pitt," he says. "And thanks to Bafta. This means acceptance." And with that, he bounds away to meet the press.
And so we come to the documentary Bafta, fought out between Martin Scorsese's loving George Harrison film, the brilliant Project Nim and the dashing Senna. And yet again Senna takes the prize! "This film was made by all of us with love," says producer Eric Fellner. "And all we have got back from everyone is love."
Then up steps director Asif Kapadia, who reels off a list of names and admits that it has been "an amazing journey". Kapadia claims that Senna was made by a "small team" and that may well be so, but they seem to be all up on the stage here tonight, all making the most of the moment, unwilling to take their leave. The crowd, for their part, seem happy to indulge them.
Heads bowed, please, as Stephen Fry clasps his hands and makes like a vicar - ushering us through to the graveyard to view the tributes. And there, preserved on showreel, are all the luminaries who took their leave this year: Jane Russell, Michael Gough, Nicol Williamson, Theo Angelopolous, Sidney Lumet, Ken Russell, so many more. We end on Elizabeth Taylor, still in her prime, still vowing to make "the biggest damn explosion you ever heard".
Fry looks all but overcome. "I did not know that death had claimed so many," he intones, which suggests that he somehow avoided viewing the showreel in rehearsal. Maybe he was out having a cigarette instead.
Now up comes Mr Jon Hamm to present the Bafta for best adapted screenplay. It goes to Peter Straughan and the late Bridget O'Connor for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.
"I'd just like to thank The Artist for not being based on a book," jokes Straughan. But he also pays also pays moving tribute to his late wife and collaborator, Bridget O'Connor, who died last year. "She wrote all the good bits and I made the coffee," he says.
As it swings into the home straight, these Baftas look as though they are belatedly speeding up. The award for best animation goes to Rango and is presented by a croaky, coldy Gillian Anderson. Director Gore Verbinski hasn't come, so it's left to producer Graham King to pick up the bronze mask. That he will be probably be wearing later. After he's eaten his dinner and drunk his champagne, and been ushered through the secret door, into the hidden chamber where the masque takes place ...
This year's Baftas are very nearly done. We know this because the big guns are being wheeled out and the major awards prepared. First up comes Brad Pitt, like the stork, to deliver the best director prize. The contenders: Michel Hazanivicius (The Artist), Lynne Ramsay (We Need to Talk About Kevin), Martin Scorsese (Hugo), Nicholas Winding Refn (Drive) and Tomas Alfredson (Tinker Tailor).
And the Bafta goes where most thought it would: right into the hands of Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist. "Thank you, again," he says. "I'm so proud that Brad Pitt pronounced my name so well."
Next up it's "the Colin they call Firth" (as Fry would have it). He's clutching one of those infernal bronze masks and he's all set to foist it on an actress. But which one does he like the most? Is it Viola Davis (The Help) or Meryl Streep (The Iron Lady)? Bérénice Bejo (The Artist), Tilda Swinton (We Need to Talk About Kevin) or Michelle Williams (My Week With Marilyn)?
In the event, he does not hesitate. And the Bafta goes to .... Meryl Streep. So eager is the performer to claim her prize that she promptly loses her shoe on her way to the lectern. Firth gallantly makes like Prince Charming and slips it back on. "That couldn't have gone worse!" yells Streep, though I think she's referring to her losing her shoe, not Firth putting it back on again.
Now along comes Penelope Cruz, "so popular that they have even named a beach, park and leisure activity after her," says Fry. It's Cruz's job to present the best actor Bafta, to choose between Gary Oldman (Tinker Tailor), Michael Fassbender (Shame), Jean Dujardin (The Artist), Brad Pitt (Moneyball) and George Clooney (The Descendants).
And the winner is .... Jean Dujardin for The Artist. Yowzer, I did not see that coming. Going into the night, I figured that home turf advantage would win out and that the award would probably go to Oldman, or perhaps to London-based Fassbender. But no, it goes instead to Dujardin, the grand silent-screen tragedian from The Artist, who pays tribute to Britain as "the land of Benny Hill" and mimics stone-faced Buster Keaton at the podium. Oldman and Fassbender will have to wait for another year.
Top of the night, the best film Bafta. Here to present it are Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe. The contenders: Drive, The Descendants, The Help, Tinker Tailor and The Artist. And yet by this point we surely know which way this one's going. Don't we? Don't we?
And so the crowning Bafta goes to The Artist; to director Michel Hazanavicius, who "has already said most of what I had to say" and to producer Thomas Langmann, who adds Harvey Weinstein to the list of thanks. It was Weinstein who snapped up The Artist after its debut at the Cannes film festival, and without the famous Weinstein muscle it seems safe to assume that Hazanavicius's film would have remained an exotic, out-of the-way delicacy. Instead, it has dominated the Baftas and now looks set to do the same thing at the Oscars in a fortnight's time.
The last order of business at this year's Baftas is the awarding of the Bafta fellowship to Martin Scorsese. It is presented by the great Max Von Sydow and trailed by a pair of videotaped testimonials by Sir Christopher Lee and Robert De Niro, who I seem to remember were the young-buck co-stars in Mean Streets and then teamed up again in Taxi Driver, in which De Niro took the title role and Sir Christopher played the preening New York pimp who corrupts Jodie Foster and then gets shot in the stomach. But the night is late and this event has run on too long and, by now, I may be getting some of the details wrong.
Anyway, the Bafta fellowship goes to Martin Scorsese, the visionary director of Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, King of Comedy and GoodFellas, and arguably the most vibrant and talented film-maker of his generation. On stage he celebrates the whole spread and history of British film, which he grew up watching and which remains "a mystery for me and a bit of a marvel". For good measure, he praises the prowess of the British crews he worked with on Hugo. "This award has particular resonance," he adds, "because it is the first award I've ever shared with Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger, the knights' templar of British cinema."
And that's it, we're done. This year's Baftas have now been delivered, the bronze masks handed out and waved at the camera, before being ferried off to their curious and unsettling after-life at the post-event parties. It was a night that went pretty much as the pundits predicted, despite a flurry of wins for outside bet Senna and a startling best actor triumph for Jean Dujardin, upending the likes of Oldman, Clooney, Fassbender and Pitt.
So the dust has settled and the results are in. The Iron Lady, Hugo, Tinker Tailor and Senna are all in joint second-place with two Baftas apiece. Which naturally means that there was only one winner. The Artist dominated tonight's awards, picking up seven statues to further burnish its credentials ahead of the Oscars. It came and it conquered. It saw the world and wanted it all. And then it STRUCK, like Thunderball.
That's it from me. Thanks for sticking with me. See you at the "after-show party".

Spin dashing allows for players to go from a dead stop to high speed, which is very useful when attempting to regain speed after being struck by an enemy. Spin dashing also makes passing through obstacles such as loops and corkscrews much easier. After reaching speed Sonic can then also go into a roll and attack and destroy any enemy he may encounter. This type of dashing is not without risk as the player can reach such high speeds that they might be unable to avoid running into a hazards.

BitFenix Flo Headset Review
BitFenix, known for their cases, just launched their first headset dubbed Flo. The Flo is a circumaural (around-ear) headset with a detachable and in-line microphone and volume control. At its current price of €59/$69, it costs roughly as much as the QPAD QH-90 and KRK Systems KNS-6400. BitFenix has gone all-in with the design by giving the Flo a suspended headband system and some rather lush soft-touch earpads out of pleather. That and its low clamping force of just 5N should make it a seriously comfortable headset to wear… at techPowerUp!

In her Personality Matters series, Leslie Sachs examines the personalities and people issues that are found in technology groups from cross-functional, high-performance teams to dysfunctional matrix organizations.
when they feel valued for their contributions on a routine basis, there is less need to act-out or gain attention in more counter-productive ways. Emphasizing the rewards for compliance and group success is usually more effective than threats or coercion. Knowledge of personality types and excellent interpersonal skills can help the astute It manager to keep each member of his team "within bounds".
As you can see, there are many personality issues which can interfere with one's ability to comply with externally-imposed standards. However, such adherence is frequently crucial to project success.
Experienced managers must develop several strategies to address these concerns should they arise. The techniques mentioned above are just a sampling of the many creative methods that an IT manager may need to pull out of his pocket to get a recalcitrant team member to "play by the rulebook". I'd love to hear from you about your specific experiences keeping your team on track with standards & frameworks.

One of my favourite iTunes applications for the iPad is The Guardian Eyewitness, a photography portal that brings in usually great photos almost every day from the news. Along with The Frame and The Big Picture, I get my daily dose of superb street photography and photojournalism.
A few days ago, the photo below landed on my iPad. According to the website:
An Israeli motorist runs down a masked Palestinian youth who was among a group of boys throwing stones at Israeli cars in the mostly Arab east Jerusalem neighborhood of Silwan.
This isn't the first time I am subjected to such an image, and I have seen much worse on The Frame and The Big Picture.
You can't stop and think that everything about this photo is wrong.
