Vurdering av denne eiendommen
Large apartment with a good location. We found taxis easily and there are lots of restaurants. close enough for the beach and touring. The kitchen facilities, cookware, plats, glasses, etc were well provided.
everything worked pretty well. the only thing is that it is up 4 flights of stairs that
are not so large near the top.
provided contact numbers for problems and were helpful
A great place of residence!
Everything was well organized and prepared: confirmation after booking, arrival guide, appointment at the appartment for handover, useful ttips and the return as well. Many thanks to Pol, Mark and his Team!
The appartment was exactly like the pictures, clean and in very cood conditions and just in the middle of everything in Barri Gothic. We stayed 3 nights with 6 persons
In summary: 5 Stars. We would like to come again :-)
All the best

Leiligheten ligger midt i smørøyet i bydelen El Born. Vi ble møtt av verten som viste oss en herlig leilighet med alt utstyr vi hadde behov for. En liten veranda med ettermiddagssol ble flittig brukt. Selv om vi bodde sentralt var det rolig og fredelig her. Anbefaler gjerne denne,men 60 trappetrinn i en smal oppgang egner seg lite for familier med barn.
Veldig fin leilighet meget godt plassert (5 min t). Tilgjengelig vert og imøtekommende (inkludert bagasje).
Veldig behagelig for ni personer.
Dårlig isolerte vinduer så litt av støy fra gågaten.
Très bel appartement très bien placé (5 min du métro). Hôte disponible et arrangeant (pour les bagages notamment).
Très confortable pour 9 personnes.
Fenêtres assez mal isolée donc un peu de bruit de la rue piétonne.
Vanskelig å toppe!
Ren, store, veldig gode senger og midt i beste prt av Barcelona.
Kjøkken med alt du trenger og ønsker.
2 bad med god standard.
Hyghly recommendet!
Den innsjekking og utsjekking var veldig vennlig og uformell.
Godt valg!
Hard to top!
Clean, large, very good beds and right in the best prt of Barcelona.
Kitchen with all you need and want.
2 bathrooms with good standard.
Hyghly recommendet!!!
The check-in and -out was very friendly and informal.
Good choice!
Good,central and clean Location in El Born. Simple Check In and Mark was very friendly. We stayed one week in this appartement. Sometimes it was a little bit noisy , but Barcelona is never quiet!
Incredibly beautiful apartment in central Gothic Barcelona. Close to everything. We stayed two families and had nice space.
Nice and spacious appartment in the centre of El Born area. However reasonably quiet spot. Suitable for groups of 8-9 adults; only beds are bit small (150cm width) so cosy sleeping. Appartment meets the expactations and is fully according the published pictures.
Mark is a nice host. Check in and out go smoothly. Also option for luggage storage available at no cost. Excellent.
Only remark is the place is very warm and the airco is way insufficient for the accomodation, especcially for the bedroom without any window.
The fans helped out a little only.
Would go there again.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.

A legacy is something that we will be remembered for long after we are gone whether from the earth, a company or an office!
These three men are no different!
These posters tell the story of three men who will have left an indelible mark on all of us!
Steve Jobs of course will be remembered for the way in which he revolutionized how society does things technologically!
Bill Clinton will be remembered for the unfortunate way that he changed how many define what sex is or is not. And of course for also lying under oath to Congress and being impeached!
Barack Obama will be remembered for oh so many failures on the domestic front, in the foreign policy arena and of course for the way he has handled our national security by making the U.S. a much less safe nation! He will also be remembered for the worst post-recession recovery of all-time while spending the most taxpayer money to do it!

Poignant memories and sobering reflections drew survivors and mourners to a community-wide Holocaust memorial at the Kings Bay Y, where they packed the house for the annual commemoration.
The April 18 Yom Hashoah program — held at the community center, Nostrand Avenue and Avenue V — featured a moving candle lighting procession in memory of Jews killed during the Nazi horrors of World War II, plus stirring performances by children from the Y's Jewish Sunday Program, and a choral group from nearby Madison Jewish Center on Nostrand Avenue and Quentin Road.
Rabbi Max Sxhryer was the guest speaker.

Amelia walked into her first art class for the semester and sighed.
Pretty much every single desk had a student sitting there chatting with their friends.
Of course she was going to be the out cast because she's the new kid. She could just see it, going into group activities she'll always be the one chosen lastly or the one that had to work with the teacher.
Amelia sighed and walked over to the only empty desk and sank into the seat and out her drawing pad in front of her and waited for the teacher to finally arrive.
Not even five minutes had passed when a student kicked Amelia's desk to gain her attention. She looked up and saw a girl with long black hair, blue eyes and a near flawless face looking down at her with a raised eyebrow.
"And who're you?" She asked Ameila with scorn.
Ameila folded her arms across her chest and leant back in her seat.
"Amelia." She said. The girl smiled and looked at her doe-eyed friends.
"Amelia..." She says slowly.
Amelia gritted her teeth and did her best not to show signs of frustration.
The girl opened her mouth to say something else when the teacher finally hurried into the classroom and dumped a box onto her desk.
"Sorry I'm late class." She said. He gaze flicked over to the girl that stood beside me.
"Sarah please sit down in your seat." The girl who Amelia now knew was named Sarah, rolled her eyes and sat in the chair beside Amelia.
Just as the teacher turned her back to the class, Sarah started whispering nasty coments about Amelia.
Amelia did her best to ignore the coments, after all Sarah didn't even know who she was other than her name. But it didn't mean that it took the sting away from some of the things that she had to say.
Amelia sighed.
This was going to be the longest art class of her exsistance.

Yellowstone Road Trip
The storms have passed through, leaving us with a view out of our front window of the mountains dusted with snow and glorious blue skies. Considering the property values around Jackson, Wyoming, we figure we have a two million dollar view here for a modest $12 a night! We're home this morning after the last two days of heading out just after dawn touring, photographing and soaking in the beauty of this vast country. Friday we took a day trip ...
One More Day In Yellowstone National Park
... so I rolled down the car window and took pictures out of the window -- there were even some little bison. How cool was that! Then on to see the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, where the turbulent Yellowstone River roars and foams for 20 miles. The canyon is spectacular -- hot water acting on volcanic rock created the canyon's colors and weakened the rock making it up to 1,200 feet deep. There are two very ...
We're In the Tippy Top Northeast Corner Of Idaho
Yes, indeed, we are in the tippy top northeast corner of Idaho -- right where Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming all come together. We had a very long drive yesterday -- twice what we normally drive. And it rained all day long, but rain is scarce and this high desert area really needs rain so that was good. Our drive was through Idaho's high, high desert -- about 4,500 feet above sea level. And it's ...
Amazing scenery
... spring water was like a hot tub (we dipped our hands in!) and smelt only slightly of sulphur. Wildlife count for today was: - many chipmunks - herds of bison, including a couple walking in the road - a couple of deer and Pronghorns - one yellow bellied marmot - several grizzly bears (stuffed as deco in shops and hotels) 1000 miles on the clock since ...
Day 5 (Yellowstone National Park)
... the tremendous power of the water. It really fills your senses with awe. The only bad experience was the hordes of mainland Chinese over there. It was just so difficult to take a photo because they will walk in front of you without a care. You have to tell them to wait so that we can take a photo. We spent 4 hours in all visiting the Grand Canyon. It was just spectacular. We made our way north towards Tower Falls. Shortly after passing the Canyon ...

In my own remembering,
I can see so many things.
Days of bliss were much too brief.
Longer nights of pain and grief.
In my own remembering,
all my sins forgive.
Memory, can never be,
mere fact or history.
Memory, is more complex;
of mute agenda and subtext.
Memory, will flow and ebb,
according to one's mental web.
Memory, a visceral mix,
of deja vu and subtle tricks.
In my own remembering,
thwarted dreams will all take wing.
Flights of fancy, foolish lies,
float in ether's cloudless skies.
In my own imagining,
I begin ...
Song: High Fidelity
When there's no-one left to care. I'll be there.
Or they say you've got no prayer. I'll be there.
When a moment freely shared, is as precious and as rare,
as the diamonds in your eyes, and the highlights in your hair.
And time itself's impaired, with seconds running scared,
with minutes gone into hiding like hibernating bears.
And none of us are spared, to lull the crawling dread;
with emotions not easily aired, but locked inside the head.

Somewhere Down A Large Hole In The Ground...
Somewhere down a large hole in the ground, a live video feed jumped into action. It was voice sensored, so whenever any one spoke in that room, the feed came to life.
"Action on Screen 1" said a monotone computer voice that sounded rather bored. This was completely understandable in this situation as just saying things like Action on Screen 11 is hopelessly unexciting. If it had something more interesting to say, it might not have sounded so monotone in the first place.
"Ah. My little friend, the former Sir Lance! In prison already. Perfect." The man spoke to no-one in particular as there was no-one in particular except for him and the bored computers down there in the first place. He watched as the deflated Lance Alotus walked solemnly into the room with his back hunched. The man settled down to enjoy the show...
"Lance Alotus, formerly Sir Lance Alotus, former PI and wine dealer. Correct?" The policeman always felt it was best to start like this. Otherwise, it might get messy when he ended up interviewing the wrong man who was supposed to be a woman. Anyway.
"Yes. That is a precise description. I like the use of your short sentence to add dramatic effect to our conversation. However, you missed out the fact that i am 5ft 10."
"Right. Cigarette??" asked the policeman casually.
Lance thought for a moment. Mr D didn't tell him if he wanted one. Or even if he liked cigarettes. Hmm. What to do?
"Thankyou, but no thankyou. He didn't say i wanted one, so i guess i don't."
The policeman was very confused. They had only been in here for 3 minutes and already, Lance was driving him round the bend. Lets just get this over with he thought.
"Fair enough. Now to business. Where were you on the night when 114 Private Investigators were killed by a poison in their wine?"
"Well, you are in fact the policeman. I think it would be preferable if you tell me as it is obvious from your expression that you already know." Lance thought that he was being rather clever.
The policeman was startled by this. Never before in his career had he had an interview like this! Maybe it was time to retire and buy a goat.
"Uh, well, I suppose I, uh, do."
Lance looked complacent in his chair, despite a splinter denting his spine from the wooden frame. The policeman supposed that he should try again.
"Can you confirm for me that you were infact at the party for celebrated Private Investigaters when 114 out of 116 of them were killed?"
Lance now looked puzzled. "Well, you have previously stated in this discussion that you know where i was. Why ask me to confirm something you know to be utterly true? Look, if you cast your eyes in this direction, you will see evidence of direct confirmation of the statement."
The policeman looked at where Lance was pointing. It would seem that Lance had been taking notes of the questioning. He had never seen such a proposterous thing in his whole career; not even on the telly!
The policeman looked up, stared at Lance with a certain awe, as if he couldn't quite believe what was happening to him. How was this guy in any way a criminal? Him? A mass murderer?
"Right", said the policeman in a definate tone. "You stay here and i am off to buy a goat. Good day."
Lance was baffled. In all of his previous encounters with policemen, he had never met one who kept goat. He had seen one who collected scars and tattoos, but never goats.
'Oh well', he thought. He waited there for 4 minutes and 27 seconds, just enough time to over hear the policeman he had been interviewed by telling his boss that he was resigning and needed to use the phone to call his wife and tell her about their new, prosperous career to breed goats. He also learnt that the policemans name was Billy Kidd and that Officer Kidd didn't even like goats...
After the time of 4 minutes and 27 seconds had passed, another policeman entered the room. His name was Sergeant Johnson and Lance was pleased to notice that this officer collected tattoos and scars instead of goats. He was dark skinned, tall and muscly
"Hello Sergeant." said Lance, standing up to shake his hand. The Sergeant Johnson looked at him up and down as if to say "Are you for real?".
"They said you was a nut and i said nah, he's just one of dem guys who needs a bit of teachin' in the ways of bein' a criminal and all. But i fink i was wrong. You is a nut, man. You seriously took notes? We aint at school bruv!"
Lance stared in awe at Johnson. "Sergeant, i think that you are the one in need of an education. That was horrific. There were 9 grammatical and enunciation errors in those sentences alone. You need help and fast." Johnson was sort of enjoying this in an odd fashion. He always liked a prisoner who needed roughing up a bit and he thought that Lance was perfect...
* * *
Back somewhere down a large hole in the ground, Mr D was frustrated. Why did Lance have to be so damn correct and right about everything. He was beginning even to have a mini-Lance voice in his heading correcting his every word and fault of judgement. The sooner he was dealt with the better.
"Action on Screen 4" said the computer. Normally, Mr D ignored the computer when it said this, but there was something notably different about the way he said it. It sounded excited. Not totally over the top excited but a couple of degrees between monotone and jubilant. He turned to face the monitor and was astounded with the result. He almost could not believe his eyes....

The sleek black motorcycle rested neatly against the railings by the edge of the gate, winking at me.
"What?!" I said, I'd never been on a motorbike before, I knew no one who rode one. Well, I did now. "You ride that?"
"Hey, don't offend it" Jax said, grinning his sideways grin at me. "Well, come on, hop on" I quickly considered the massive list of possible bad things that could happen to me, plus the factor that if my mother found out, she'd chop me up with her cooking knife, but eventually the need for speed, and the tingling vibes that I was getting from the thought of riding it with Jax won me over. I stepped towards the bike, but heard Isaac calling me before I could get on.
"Uh, I'll be one sec." I told Jax, before running over to where Isaac stood, several yards away. "What do you want?" I asked him as soon as I got close enough to hear his response.
"What are you doing?" He asked. He didn't sound cross, just, concerned.
"Relax, honestly, its just a bike, we're not going far on it." I said, although I had no idea how far we might be going.
Isaacs brow furrowed. "It's not the bike that worries me, its him." He said, there was almost a dark edge to his voice which confused me. Isaac was usually a really easy going guy, who got on with just about everyone he knew. I looked over at Jax, who was leaning casually against the bike, waiting.
"What do you mean? He's nice, honestly."
"I'm not saying he's not nice, its just that... I'm getting bad vibes off him" I wasn't sure whether to laugh or be concerned.
"Why do you think that is?" I asked, curious.
"Hmm, I don't know, hey, what's his Okan?"
I thought about it. "Do you know, I've never asked, I will though, now you've brought it up. Why, do you think that might have something to do with it?"
"Could be conflicting genes" he suggested "Say, if he were a panther too, it could just be linked back to our basic rival instincts." He smiled, light and jokey now.
"Well, I trust him, and anyway, I can take care of myself, nobody would dare to take on me!" I grinned, baring my teeth and fake-punching him on the arm.
He laughed "I don't doubt that for a minute!" I smiled and ran back to Jax, excitement whirling around me.
"Alright then" I said, jumping onto the back of the motorbike and wrapping my arms round his waist "Let's go!" he laughed once, leant forwards in the seat, and slammed on the accelerator. The motorbike growled into life, and we sped off down the street, my hair flying out behind me.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I'm a landlord in a rent controlled city in NJ. My tenant's lease is up on 6/30/13 and renews on a month to month basis. In my lease it states that I may notify them of any proposed lease changes or increase atleast 60 days prior to the end of the lease. I am currently past that date. Can I still give then a notice that I am ending the prior lease and increasing the rent (amount given by the city) sixty days from the end of the lease? So their rent would increase as of 8/1/13. Is that okay? If it is okay, and they decide not to pay the increase, do they have to move out?
If the lease converts into a month to month after it expires then you only need to give one month's notice of the new terms as of July 1. Assuming you serve the notice to quit and increase of rent by July 1 that should be good. If they decide not to pay then you have to go throught the process as outlined in the Anti Eviction Act to get them out.Ask a similar question
Matthew, Thanks for the information it was very helpful. Do you practice in Union County?
I have been to Elizabeth. Just wrapped up a trial there. Call me at 908 391 5399 to discuss the matter further
You really can't get more concise than Mr. Schutz' answer. Be advised - your rent increase must be reasonable.

My city is rent controlled so they set the percentage that I may increase. I think its around 3%

Perdita was confused, she didn't understand the flurry of strangeness around her, her eyes hurt from the bright lights and... and colours she could see, everything had a tone and a shade of colour, everything was dazzling and beautiful, everything was full of feeling and energy.
Despite how amazing Perdita found her new surroundings, her head pounded, her mind thumping, her eyes throbbing, everything swayed backwards and forwards. Only when she saw Marz turn and shout at her did she even realize that her hearing had gone missing in action.
The world around her swayed, she appeared to be in a valley of brick and stone, everything was very square, there windows and doors carved into the rock faces, which themselves were made out of square blocks.
"What is this place?" She didn't hear herself say.
At the edges of the small trench that they found themselves in, were metal and glass things, they looked like a strange machine that resembled slightly a horse and cart, but there was no horse, and Perdita couldn't fathom a way of getting in.
Marz tugged at Perdita's hand and pointed to one of the windows in the rock face. A young girl, a little younger than Perdita stood at the window, staring down at them. Perdita was horrified at the fact that this girl looked as stunned as she felt, what right did she have to be stunned? This was her world!
Marz seemed to shrink into the ground, dragging Perdita with him, and now she felt more at home, she was black as night and travelled across the ground, that was still a little too colourful for her painful eyes to bear.
Perdita didn't know where she was going, or why, but she trusted Marz, she could trust him, he would help her, he was like a brother to her.
Marz found the pair of them a place to rest, albeit somewhat damp and cold. By morning the sun had risen, and Perdita had hoped her headache would go away, but what she saw was incredibly bright and a chaotic mess of colours.
The two of them were nestled in the corner of some corridor of wood, Perdita had pretty much given up on explaining these strange places that she had been dragged to, yet still it was strange to see these things, especially so when she thought it was bright enough at night time!
"What are we doing here Marz? She asked in a shadowy silence, pleased however to know that her hearing capability had rejoined her.
"Wait," he said sharply, "You'll see"
A girl moved past them in the alley, and Marz tugged at Perdita once more, dragging her along the brightly lit wooden wall. The girl turned and spotted them moving unexplainably behind her. Perdita immediately recognized the girl as the one from the night before. The girl began to sprint away from them, in some kind of frenzied horror.
"Has she never seen a shadow before??" Perdita asked, as wide-eyed as a shadow can be.

You're busy going about your day and a quick glance at your reflection in a mirror makes you do a double-take You look closer at yourself and gasp at the blood red spot on the white of your eye. You wonder if you're bleeding from your eye. After confirming that the bleeding is contains within your eye, you wonder what you did to cause the bright red spot. Did you poke your eye with something and not even realize it? Did your eye just start to bleed for no reason?

A red spot on your eye could be harmless, but sometimes a red spot can signal a disease or even cancer. The whites of your eyes act as great backgrounds for red spots that show up on your eyes. Because they are so easily spotted, it's normal to be concerned if you see one appear out of nowhere. It is always best to alert your eye doctor to any new spots in your eyes.

Causes of Red Eye Spots

Below are a few conditions that your eye doctor will consider if you develop a red spot on your eye.

 Subconjunctival hemorrhage: The red spot you see is most likely a small blood vessel that burst open. In medical terms, it is called a subconjunctival hemorrhage. Small blood vessels lie underneath the conjunctiva, the clear coating that covers the sclera, the white part of the eye. When one of the vessels breaks open, the blood has no place to go but underneath the conjunctiva. If a larger blood vessel bursts open and bleeds, it can be quite startling when you look into the mirror. In some cases, the blood can spread out over the entire white part of the eye. These hemorrhages can be caused by trauma, constipation, straining too hard, lifting something too heavy, diabetes, or hypertension.

 Episcleritis: Episcleritis is an acute inflammatory disorder of the episclera, the thin tissue between the conjunctiva and the white sclera. The episclera houses a thin network of blood vessels. Episcleritis usually looks much worse than it actually is. Although most cases of episcleritis go away on their own, about one-third of cases are linked to hidden inflammatory problems present elsewhere in the body.

 Sickle cell disease: Sickle cell anemia is an inherited blood disorder that is characterized by chronic anemia and intermittent pain. It is caused by abnormally shaped blood cells that have difficulty transporting hemoglobin and oxygen throughout the body. Sickle cell patients will sometimes display comma-shaped red spots or lines on the white part of their eyes. This is due to the sickling of red blood cells within small vessels, leading to tiny blockages.

 Pinguecula: A pinguecula is a common growth or thickening of the tissue that lines the outside of the eye. It can appear elevated and yellow in color. You may be unaware that you have a pinguecula, but if you spend several hours in the sun and wind, it can become inflamed. When it is inflamed, it is referred to as pingueculitis. It can become red and swollen and suddenly appear on your eye. A pinguecula is thought to be caused by ultraviolet sun radiation or chronic irritation.

 Conjunctival hemangioma: A conjunctival hemangioma is a congenital malformation of a clump of tortuous blood vessels that sometimes develops on the white part of the eye. A conjunctival hemangioma is usually benign, but some people become concerned about their cosmetic appearance. They should be examined annually and if the patient desires, they can be surgically removed.

 Benign and Cancerous Growths: Keratoacanthoma, actinic granulomas and conjunctival epitheliomas are growths that can be serious. If you notice any new growths on the surface of your eye, see your eye doctor as soon as possible.

Outcome of Daimentou Enbu
Okay, so while all of us are bored out of our minds for there is no FT chapters until January, I decided to ask if anybody had decided how they want the Grand Magic Games to end. I mean, the country falling, the outcome of the last day(I think everybody knows who's gonna win, but let's not forget Sting's determination to get Lector back)and for the Jellal and Erza fans, we will be thinking:
1)Is Jellal's cover blown for good? 2)Who's going to save him if it is? Erza? And what's up with Kagura? 3)What will happen to FT? 4)And how the hell is FUTURE LUCY going to return? Wouldn't it affect the future? Or maybe they'll forget about her...
So what do you all think?

I don't know who Pamela Bone is but apparently she has passed away judging by the title of the article. Her words are very good and are worth a read and some contemplation.
Pamela Bone: A woman to remember, words that will live on
A while ago, walking along a river bank in the country, I discovered the meaning of life in a piece of cow dung.
In that dried disc was sprouting a tiny forest of fresh green shoots, the seeds the animal had eaten, starting a new life cycle, reaching for the sun. For a moment I understood. Life exists, I thought, because it can. But only for a moment. Then, I thought, why can it? Why is there something and not nothing? And why is there this something instead of some other something?
Years before this I had what you might call a Road to Damascus experience in reverse.
It happened like this: I was in my kitchen, while outside the house my little girl was playing with our dog. I heard the squeal of car brakes, a dog's yelp, a child's scream. As I ran I prayed, "please God, please God". As one does. But even as I ran, something in my head said: "No use. There is no God. Whatever has happened has happened."
The worst had not happened. The dog ran onto the road, was hit by a car, and in its dying agony bit my daughter, who had run after it. She still has the fine scars on her cheeks.
That was the last time I prayed. To be honest, I had been wavering in my religious belief for some time before. But from that day, in my heart I knew. Now, I do not believe something outside of myself was talking to me. (Who? God, to tell me he doesn't exist? Satan, maybe?) It was, of course, my own voice. People who are not mentally ill know that any voice in their head is their own voice.
But while my heart knows, my mind doesn't. I don't know if God exists. I have no feeling that one does, but I don't know. And neither does anyone else.
Religious belief (where it is not held merely out of habit) is a matter of deep intuition, not knowledge. One person's deep intuition tells them there is a God, another person's tells them there isn't. Why is it, then, that the people who hold the former belief have been allowed, for so long, to claim the high moral ground?
I don't mind at all if people believe in God — though some believers seem to mind quite a lot that I don't. I respect their beliefs. What I do mind is the assumption of many that they are better people because they believe; that faith itself is a virtue and that, therefore, a lack of faith is immoral or, at best, to be pitied.
The unsuccessful American vice-presidential candidate Joseph Lieberman declared before the US election that "we should not indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion". The British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, made a similar statement recently. These sentiments are an insult to the 5% of Americans who have no religion, or the 40% of Britons, or the 30% of Australians.
Moreover, they are as little based on any empirical or scientific evidence as they are common.
There is no proven correlation between morality and adherence to any organised religion. Indeed, some might say the opposite correlation applies. I don't. It is impossible to weigh up paedophile priests, packed churches in Rwanda before and after the genocide, the extremism on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, against the vast amount of good that is done in the world by people who are acting out of religious motives.
Yet the question, "Where are your humanist or atheist organisations working to help the poor?" is in a way nonsensical. World Vision is a Christian organisation. Amnesty International, Oxfam, Medecins sans Frontieres and countless others have members who may or may not be religious. But whether they are or not has no relevance to the work of the organisation.
You (unbelievers) can't believe in any force higher than yourselves, it was said to me recently. Not true. I believe in plenty of things higher than myself: that oak tree outside my window, for one example; and every single child who comes into the world, new and hopeful. I just don't believe in a supreme supernatural being, that's all.
There is no evidence that those who believe in God are kinder, less interested in making money, or more moved by art, or music, or the beauty of the world. There is no evidence that they are either better or worse people. When a third of the population does not hold to any religion, is it not time the bluff that religion is necessary to morality was called? Support for this view comes from a perhaps surprising source: Richard Holloway, Bishop of Edinburgh, argues in his book Godless Morality that religion and ethics should be kept separate.
Morality is an evolved, human construct, and those moral imperatives that are permanent and universal, such as the one against murder, are held on moral, not theological, grounds.
I don't know the meaning of life. I believe it has the meaning we give it. It is wrong to describe people without religious faith as unbelievers. Atheism is the belief that no God exists; agnosticism is the belief that we do not know. These are beliefs. And are equally valid and deserving of respect.
This article was originally published on March 24, 2001.
I sometimes use the term nontheist myself but in retrospect that has a negative meaning almost like unbeliever. I think I should try to stick to the term freethinker. I've always liked that one better anyway since it really describes a mind that does not follow dogma or belief as part of a herd mentality.
I also like the story at the beginning about the dying dog biting the daughter. It's sad it happened but a religious person would point at that as a miracle and proof of God's intervention. This freethinker apparently saw it as proof that the universe unfolds as it will on its own. It just reminds me that it is our freethinking minds that defines how we relate to the universe and what we believe is really going on. We really have no clue and are just making sense of it for ourselves. This is why my viewpoint of truth is labeled Agnostic: we have no knowledge or understanding of the real truth.

This is what I like to call a ficlet, just a one-act story. It's after the S3 finale, so don't read it if you don't want to know what happens. The lyrics cited come from A Sorta Fairy Tale by Tori Amos, and the title is a line from How Can I Not Love You by Joy Enriques, from the soundtrack to Anna and the King. For one, I just liked that song, but I also thought it fits the story—Beka is trying to figure out what was going on all along.Rating: PG, I guess. It could well be G, but a G rating reminds me too much of Disney movies, and this is way too angsty to be any Disney movie. I mean, come in, it has Tori.
Summary: Just a slice o' Beka's life.
Pairings: As if you have to ask! Tyr/Beka!
Read, review, and listen to A Sorta Fairy Tale, and How Can I Not Love You (if you can find it). Trust me, they're significantly better heard than read.
Finally, this has not really been updated—just edited. "I miss him too, boss," Beka's favorite mudfoot confided in her one evening as they sat alone in the Officers' Mess. He flicked his bright blue eyes up to her briefly, then concentrated on his can of Sparky Cola and dish of macaroni and cheese.
Beka's head jerked up. "Huh?" She had stiffened at the sound of his voice, but her shoulders slumped again when she realized what he'd said. "Oh, yeah."
She seemed about to drift back into her own world when the import of Harper's words hit her. "You miss him? Why?" Beka and Harper had known each other long enough that she didn't have to elaborate on that simple question—why Tyr? Why a Nietzschean who had apparently turned out to be no different than nearly every single other Nietzschean they'd come across (though Beka still couldn't believe that)? Why a man who had developed friendships with them and saved their lives, who they had casually teased and been casually teased by?
Harper's fork made a soft scraping sound on the metal plate. "I don't know." His voice fell and rose erratically in the grip of strong emotions. "He was my friend, Beka." He barked a short, mirthless laugh. "When we were fighting the Magog, he gave me his knife. We fought back to back. He wasn't protecting me then, you know? It was like... we were equal then, both these great warriors fighting our demons and trying to take as many of them down with us as we could."
During the pause, the engineer chugged the rest of his Sparky and clanged the empty can on the table. "And all I could think was... this was something I used to do with Brendan. Like Tyr and I were... family or something." He scoffed, but the quaver in his voice gave him away. "He sure conned us good, huh?"
Beka almost smiled. "Yeah. He did." A sigh that began deep within her escaped her lips. "Am I that obvious, Harper?" She toyed with her coffee mug.
"Nah. I've known you the longest of anyone on this ship. Dylan and Trance might notice something—Rommie's worried about all of us—but there's a lot happening these days. They're probably just writing it off to stress."
Now Beka did smile, albeit weakly. She didn't mind Harper knowing how she felt—and why. He had seen her with Bobby, and after Bobby, and after the odd guy here and there. She wouldn't have minded the old Trance knowing, the soft-spoken, naïve, cheerful, and infinitely compassionate purple girl, but this new shade of Trance had brought with her a new personality. Beka had never stopped trusting her—unlike Harper—but she'd never really confided in Andromeda's environmental systems and Chief Medical officer since that impossible day over a year ago. "Thanks, Harper."
The young man swallowed nervously. "Beka? Um, if you ever want to, you know, talk... or something..." He looked up hopefully at her.
Tears sprung to her eyes, and she stood up quickly. "I will, Harper. Not now... but I will. Soon. I promise."
A few days later, she was bustling around her quarters on the Maru when a dusty music disc caught her eye. She held it for a moment, running a thumb along its edge and gazing at its prismatic surface. As if in a dream or trance, Beka turned and slid the disc into her personal computer console. "Track three," she ordered. She felt like she was on auto-pilot, powerless to stop an invisible, overwhelming force controlling her movement.
Years ago, her father had insisted she and her brother learn the practically dead Earth language English. Ignatius Valentine could never be considered cultured in any sense of the word, but he had taught his children this tongue of their ancestors. His intention had nothing to do with those ancestors, of course, except the musicians.
Music, like literature, could never be fully enjoyed until experienced in its original form, so the Valentine children learned English. This way, they would understand and appreciate their father's small collection of rock music. His daughter Rebecca fell in the love with the genre and had spent whatever money she had left over building an impressive collection, well-known in certain circles.
Quiet, solitary notes drifted from the mediocre speakers, and then a woman's melodic voice filled the air. The first few words made little sense to a child of a space-faring age, but she understood the lines that followed them perfectly.
And I was talking to you
And I knew then it would be
A life long thing
But I didn't know that we
Could break a silver lining
She returned to her bed and sat, legs crossed under her, facing her nightstand. Framed pictures rested on the faux wood, a red-headed Beka with her father and brother, the Maru's crew with and without Vexpeg and Trance, and Beka standing very near a tall, dark, and very handsome Nietzschean man. She kept a picture of the Andromeda's crew in her quarters there, but this was her ship and her private refuge. Slowly, she reached out and picked up the third picture. It had been snapped at a planetside diplomatic function. Music had been playing then, too... but the notes she heard now drowned out recollections of that former tune.
And I was ridin' by, ridin' alongside
For a while till you lost me
And I was ridin' by, ridin' alongside
For a while till you lost me
Till you lost me in the rearview
You lost me, I said
They all had gone to the planet—the six (with Rev gone) that Beka would always think of as the Andromeda's original crew—for its something- centennial anniversary of the passing of comprehensive civil rights for all people.
The shocking thing that Beka had discovered was that there, they actually meant it. Trance had been greeted with curiosity, Tyr with none of the habitual glares and suspicions that followed around a Nietzschean among other species, and Rommie with none of the usual coldness once they discovered her mechanical nature.
The planet was a refuge for the oppressed and downtrodden peoples of the galaxies, and since there were no laws—or even social norms, anymore—against interspecies marriage, Beka had spotted sorts of beings she was sure she never had before. Someone had told her that interspecies ob- gyn specialists were in especially high demand (and regard) here.
The people were unusually high-spirited for government officials, and the crew enjoyed the celebration immensely. Beka didn't even mind the dress Rommie had provided for the occasion, a soft, flowing crimson gown that rested on one shoulder. A bottom layer of scarlet satin lay underneath two or three translucent layers of thin tissue, each a darker shade of red, and the effect was one of shifting maroon shadows. On a whim, she had tipped her hair to match the dress. All night, she had been deathly afraid to spill anything on herself.
If she were one to drink champagne, Beka probably would've gotten a little tipsy. She stuck to sparkling fruit juice, and even that made her giggle when the bubbles went up her nose.
Tyr was obviously suppressing a smile as her giggle turned into an undignified snork. He laid a hand on her back, ostentatiously to prevent her from choking, as she pressed a napkin to her face. She missed the heat of his palm when he moved it.
"Are you all right?" As it usually happened, he was seated next to her. He leaned in close. "I believe even our generous Captain Hunt would be annoyed if you died during this marvelously egalitarian anniversary."
Beka smiled, but the sarcasm in his tone irritated her. "Does it really bother you that much?" This wasn't the first time he had made a sardonic crack about the planet's unique social order. "Yes, there is a half-human, half-Nietzschean woman sitting down the table from us. Are you really not okay with that?"
The sharpness in her voice caught Dylan's ear, and he glanced up from his conversation with the President of United Peoples to raise an expressive eyebrow at his two crewmembers. Beka subsided and studied the colorful food in front of her.
Tyr sighed, then stood and offered her his hand. "Dance with me. You want to talk, Dylan wants peace... so dance with me." An elegantly uniformed band played classical music behind a round dance floor of gold-veined ivory stone.
Beka rose hesitantly. She was ashamed of her outburst, though no less irked. "I don't know how to dance to this." She held up a warning finger. "And don't tell me to 'just follow your lead', cos that never works for me."
He smiled wryly. "I don't doubt it. Just remember to always step with the opposite foot, as if you were walking. This music is measured in three counts, so we can waltz to it. I'll just... guide you where you walk." He held out his hand once more, and Beka took it. This time, Dylan looked rather more approving.
They started to waltz in silence, Beka trying (and succeeding, for the most part) not to step on Tyr and Tyr trying to lead (without seeming to do so) a waltzer who had never waltzed before. Beka picked up the gist of the dance soon enough, and, hoping Tyr wouldn't try anything fancy, continued their conversation. "So?" she asked expectantly. "Is all this crazy talk about equality just too much for you, Tyr?"
He lifted his hand from her waist and brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "The color suits you. You're stunning tonight, Rebecca." Her confusion was mirrored in the depths of his dark eyes. "It isn't that this vexes me. The reason that Nietzscheans... in general... don't breed with others—besides concern about their genetic line—is that their offspring would not be viable, if any could be produced at all.
"We achieve immortality through our children. The issue of children is less certain with humans—we are not two entirely separate species—but the prevailing belief is that any offspring could not reproduce. To witness those who have overcome that barrier..." he shook his head. "Nietzschean tradition and rule discarded, made obsolete by genetic counseling and therapy." He paused. "This is no more customary for your people than it is for mine. Does it not... challenge you as well?"
Beka smiled then. "Are you kidding? I've always had a weakness for spectacularly good-looking men, and a lot of Nietzscheans qualify." She dropped her eyes for a moment. "Marriage does seem a little odd, but if they're happy, Tyr, I'm happy for them. Why can't you be happy?"
His grasp of her tightened a little. "I am happy for them. I pity their children if they ever leave this planet, but I am perfectly content with the situation."
Beka snorted softly. "Gee, I'd hate to see you not happy."
He sighed again. "It forces me to re-examine decades of teaching and an entire culture. It forces me to think, to see things from a different perspective, to look at things differently—as I never have before."
Beka rested her chin on her hand. "He'd never looked at me that way before."They maneuvered a corner without actually turning Beka much. A photographer was making her rounds, and she captured the pair dancing close, now conversing more lightly and smiling.
"What do we call 'em though? Klubers? Ubges? Social outcasts?"
Tyr scanned the room. "Mr. Harper is calling one his auburn ambassador of amoré, if that helps you any."
Beka smothered a giggle. "At least they'll be warmly welcomed by the horny of the galaxies wherever they go." The music sped up to a swing-y tune. Captain Valentine grinned. "Now this I can do. Harper forced this stuff on us constantly during the old days. Just... don't try anything aerial. Bad memories."
Her companion regarded her askance, then proceeded to spin her madly around the floor. Beka was flushed and laughing when they finished and attracting the eyes of quite a few men in the room. She noticed this and smiled to herself. It really wasn't such a bad dress after all.
Those admiring gazes didn't escape Tyr either. "Do you remember when I pulled Dylan from the edge of a black hole?"
Beka's eyebrows climbed halfway up her forehead. "Um, yeah. Hey, do you remember the time I convinced the Sinti Council not to leave the Commonwealth? Or that time I-"
Tyr stepped closer. "I was wearing a helmet, Beka." He tilted his head and brushed her lips with his. A ghost of a smile passed over his face. "As you tell Harper, you'll catch flies. Didn't I tell you I was looking at things differently?"
You could taste heaven
Feel out the summer breeze
Didn't know when we'd be back
And I, I don't
Didn't think
We'd end up like
Like this
"But he wasn't." She stood suddenly and stalked around her room. "Or maybe he was. He didn't know about Tamerlane then. Sometimes he would give me these looks when he didn't think I was looking. And maybe I looked back. When we had been arguing or working out or collectively kicking some anti- Commonwealth ass, there was this incredible rush of...something between us."
"Or maybe I'm just off my rocker. I mean, hello Beka, you're talking to yourself. Probably not a good idea to listen to Tori when I'm already feeling a little crazy." She sat down heavily. "Tyr Anasazi, out of Victoria by Barbarossa, of the Kodiak Pride, what were you thinking that day? What were you ever thinking?"
Her door chime sounded. "Come in," she called.
A young woman with a deceptively delicate façade entered her room. "Beka, this just arrived for you." Rommie peered closely at her XO. "Are you okay? I know we've all been under extreme stress lately. If there's anyone you need, you know we're here for you."
Beka took the package. "Thanks, Rommie. I know." She turned the box over in her hands. "Who's it from?"
The android shrugged. "From the looks of it, it's seen more of the universe in the past week than we have in the last six months. I scanned it for explosives and known toxins. It's clean."
Beka was halfway across her room before she realized that Andromeda's avatar was still in her doorway. "Uh, is there anything else?"
"N-no." Rommie slowly turned to leave.
Beka smiled wanly at her. "I promised Harper I'd talk with him soon. Like you said, it's just stress. Nothing a little R&R and crew bonding won't fix."
The other woman returned the smile. "Glad to hear it." She left, and the door slid closed.
Cautiously, Beka removed the layers of brown paper, revealing a dull silver case. It had a simple clasp that Beka lifted after a short internal deliberation. Her eyes nearly popped out of her head, and her jaw dropped when she opened it.
A gold necklace shone brilliantly under the Maru's fluorescent lights, striking against a black velvet cushion. She handled it carefully, hardly daring to breathe. There was a center ring that went around her neck, and slender filagree gold that hung from the ring between attached points.
She studied it and noticed that the filament was lifted slightly above the ring, so it rose and fell in a smooth, serpentine motion, continuous S's laid on their sides with a ring running near the top edge. Three impossibly thin bars connected the two golden strands where the loop fell and one where it rose. The designed tickled at something in the back of her mind, but she couldn't bring it to the surface.
A white piece of paper fluttered from the necklace. When Beka examined it, she found a strong, slanting print that read simply, "Look at it differently." She puzzled over the cryptic note only a moment before it became crystal-clear. "Tyr," she whispered. "What are you thinking?"
And I'm so sad
Like a good book
I can't put this day back
A sorta fairy tale
With you
A sorta fairy tale
With you

|Re: Progamatically setting values of FORM elements

Try Sun's Studio Creator (Rave). It's all graphical. You don't have to learn anything, and it does all for you. All you have to do is drag and drop those check box into a page and you're done. It bases on Java Server Faces, and the creator of this technology I believe is the same one how previously created Struts. So it's like Struts, but better. I tried both Struts and this, and I love the JSF right away.

Altuve, Gonzalez help Astros past Angels 3-2
Jose Altuve homered and Marwin Gonzalez's tiebreaking RBI triple in the eighth inning helped the Houston Astros to their fifth straight win, a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday.
George Springer singled with one out before Gonzalez hit a towering fly ball just to the right of straightaway center field off Matt Shoemaker (3-8).
Shane Robinson sprinted up Tal's Hill to grab it, but it sailed just out of his reach before Robinson crashed into the padded wall, allowing Springer to score and make it 2-1.
Houston added an insurance run on a groundout by Carlos Correa in the eighth.
Will Harris allowed a run-scoring single by Kole Calhoun with one out in the ninth, but Yunel Escobar was out at second on the play. Harris then retired Mike Trout for his sixth save. Luke Gregerson (2-1) struck out one in a scoreless eighth for the win.

Credit Suisse: USD/JPY targets 1140 yen
According to analysts at Credit Suisse, technical indicators don't support the USD/JPY recovery above 120 yen.
For now the bearish correction was limited by the 117.50/00 area, but the sluggish attempts to recover and lower support from yield differentials confirm the increased risk of a deeper correction.
Credit Suisse believes that a break below 117.05 will open the way for a decline to 115.50 and then to 114.00/113.80.

European online shops offer Nvidia's Geforce 280 GTX
The French online shop tdshop.fr and the German hw-elektronik.de offer one of the new Geforce graphics cards with the GT200 GPU, for the first time.
At tdshop.fr there is a Geforce 280 GTX model of Asus with one GiByte DDR3 memory and two DVI connectors. It is priced with 574.94 Euro (incl. local taxes), which is about 889.30 US-Dollar.
For the model at hw-elektronik.de there is no label specified. According to the website the offered Geforce 280 GTX has a GPU clock speed of 602 MHz and the memory is clocked at 1,105 Mhz. The price is at 599.99 Euro (incl. local taxes), which is about 927.31 US-Dollar.
Since both shops are located in Europe and usually electronics are cheaper in North America, prices for the Geforce 280 GTX should be below those on the European market. At the moment there is no information about the pricings outside North America or the European Union.

Brilliant Way To Pay Down Credit Card Balances: Transfer Your Balance to a 0% APR Card
Adam Rifkin stashed this in Personal Finance
Stashed in: Personal Finance, Debt, Credit
The two step process:
Step 1: Use A Powerful Tool To Immediately Stop Paying Interest On Your BalanceThink of someone carrying a credit card balance like a patient who enters an emergency room bleeding badly. The first thing a doctor will do is stop the bleeding. It's no different when attacking a credit card balance; the first thing you do is stop the interest charges.
There's a simple way to do this, and it's brilliance is that it actually uses the banks' marketing offers to your advantage: find a card offering a long "0% intro APR balance transfer" promotional offer, and transfer your balance to it. These are cards which offer new customers a long period of time (often as much as 18 months) during which the card charges no interest on all balances transferred to it. We constantly track all the cards in the marketplace in order to find the ones currently offering the longest 0% intro periods.
If you need more motivation, just think of this: on a $10,000 balance, $150 of a $200 monthly payment would get vacuumed up by interest charges.** That leaves only $50 of your $200 that actually reduces your balance, the rest vanishing into bank pockets. That's just brutal. Use our reviews to find a card which offers the longest possible no-interest period while charging low, or even no fees. Moving your balances to the card you choose will stop the bleeding, allowing you to move on to step two.
Step 2: Power Through Your Balance During The 0% Period.Once you've transferred your balances and put a stop to the interest charges, it's time to capitalize on the interest-free period to really break free of the debt. The best part of this is how simple it is: just keep making the payments you used to make when you had to pay big interest payments. Going back to the $10,000 example above, if you transferred that balance onto a card like the Chase Slate (which offers 15 months of 0% intro APR with no transfer fee) and maintained the same $200 monthly payment, you can see how much faster you'll be reducing your balance in the chart below.

Super Talent Technology introduced the world's first USB 3.0 flash drives a couple of months ago, and started shipping in small quantities just in time for the holiday shopping season. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 has a theoretical throughput of 4.8 Gbps, which translates to a raw transfer speed of 480 MB/s thanks to the 8b/10b encoding used. Actual performance is expected to peak around 400MB/s with protocol overhead, similar to how USB 2.0 peaks at around 40MB/s.
The RAIDDrive that is shipping comes fairly close to this maximum, providing 320MB/s read using a UAS protocol driver. However, the cost for this premium drive has brought numerous requests for a more affordable solution that balances speed with affordability.
Super Talent is therefore working on a new SuperSpeed USB 3.0 flash drive. The Express drive will achieve read speeds of 125MB/s and write speeds of 50MB/s. Downloading a 600MB movie will take only 12 seconds with this new drive. It will come in two models; a 16GB model will sell for under $70, while the 32GB model will sell for under $150.
The size and cost is slashed dramatically by cutting out the RAID circuitry and reducing the amount of NAND flash memory needed. The Express drive has dimensions of 62 x 37 x7.5 mm.
"This product underscores Super Talent's continued leadership in the USB 3.0 storage market.", said Super Talent COO, C.H. Lee. "We've listened to our customers and responded with a USB 3.0 product that not only meets the market needs but hits the balance point between price and performance."
The company will show off the first prototypes at CeBIT next month, with retail availability expected by the end of March.SuperSpeed USB 3.0 is now a standard feature on many premium motherboards. ASUS sells a adapter card featuring two 6Gbps SATA ports and two USB 3.0 ports for under $30.

Plug in Your Guitar and Go Wireless!The revolutionary AirLine "plug-in" guitar transmitters come in two versions: the AF1 for Strat(R)-style ins and the AG1 for old school Gibson(R)-style end-mount ins and all others. Less than half the size of conventional body packs, these miniaturized transmitters run on a tiny triple-A battery with 14-hour battery life. Both feature an array of on-board controls: A Power On/Off switch, red/green LED for Power On/Off, a Peak LED and an Input Level control for different pickups. And UHF (Ultra High Frequency) means clearer frequencies with less interference. Designed for use with your small effect pedals, the AP1 pedal receiver offers reception you can always depend on. It features a 1/4" output jack, Power switch, Peak LED and a Volume control. You can use a 9 volt battery or an AC adapter to power the receiver. When you unplug your the unit, the battery is disabled to conserve power.
For the exciting AirLine Series, Samson got rid of the ugly shame of wireless systems: the potentially cumbersome and always uncool body-pack. Extremely lightweight and completely high-performance, the AirLine series is powered by inexpensive AAA batteries. This reliable wireless sytem for electric guitar is just what you've been waiting for, offering you the freedom to roam the stage and beyond! This is the Gibson style.
