Best Of :: People & Places
Swiss Avenue is poised at the center of a whole bunch of socio-economic bubbling and brewing, rich and poor living pretty much cheek-by-jowl, separated only by the alleys and the cars they drive. The magic of Swiss in the evening is that nobody drives a car: Everybody walks, or, more properly, promenades. Especially on summer evenings when the temperature drops--as if it ever drops--people pour out of all manner of dwellings, low and tall, to push their babies, pull their dogs, walk with lovers or stroll alone with their thoughts, up and down this gracious old divided boulevard. It's worth driving to; lots of people do. If more aerobic pursuits are on your mind, this section of Swiss is almost exactly one mile long, making it the ideal length for an up-and-back morning run, when the sprinklers are sweeping across the majestic lawns and the gardening crews are getting to work. Using the sidewalk, you see, is the only thing non-residents can really do here. And what a sidewalk it is. Wide enough for people and dogs to coexist. Flat enough, because in this precinct, people even repave their sidewalks when they begin to buckle. In other words, they foot the bill, you provide the feet.
At this time last year, Hard Rock Caf was little more than a calcified rock-and-roll museum with a stage that was just for show (or actually, not for shows). Now, thanks to a new general manager and an alliance with The Merge (93.3-FM), Hard Rock is offering shows several nights a week. Good show--finally.
A secret, a jewel, a hidden paradise: Around Lakeland and Ferguson Road in East Dallas, downhill from the grand manses of Forest Hills, Little Forest Hills is a quirky, delightful architectural mlange that looks as if it were spun of Berkeley, Seaside, Charlevoix, and an all-cousin East Texas trailer park. Built long ago as summer cottages for city dwellers, the idiosyncratic little hand-built houses were all throwaways 15 years ago. Now hip people are coming in and giving many of them a very cool flair to be found nowhere else in the city. Two shady creeks and even a little-known summer camp hidden in the bottom of a hollow make this a refuge where you can forget you even know about the rest of the city.
There are few distractions at this small, cozy coffee shop in Arlington. With more than 30 coffee flavors to choose from, this is the place to relax and read about the world's myriad tragedies. The coffee stand also includes sandwiches, salads, and cakes. And there's a computer nearby for Web surfing. Coffee is ground and brewed there and then.
You don't have to be You Know Who to walk on water in Fair Park. Two large, plant-inspired sculptures arch, curve, and twist over the still lagoon, creating stairs and walkways for getting a closer look at turtles, water bugs, and the occasional fast food container lurking below the surface. A low tide, shoes with good traction, and a healthy equilibrium is suggested to keep you from getting baptized in the murky waters.
Get real. Unless you're 12-going-on-13, the only place that promises around-the-clock cool is a seat that faces the window unit. But for those who insist on getting out into the summer sun without baking, Arlington's newest water park is hard to beat. Think a day at the beach with a little Disneyland thrown in--or as one comedian put it, you can think of it as a ride on the enema express.

Today over 170 companies attended an international business meeting between entrepreneurs and craftsmen from Slovenia, European Union member states and Southeast Europe. There were about 500 individual meetings and discussions between the representatives of 8 countries. According to Public Agency for Entrepreneurship and Foreign Investments (JAPTI), there are 8 million Euros available to foreign investors, and hence their big interest.
Mayors and other municipal officials talked about obtaining financial assistance from the European Cohesion Fund and about problems municipalities encounter when applying for them. They also discussed opportunities for municipalities to create entrepreneur-friendly environment, about tools and good practices for a successful development of municipalities within the next Multiannual EU Financial Framework 2014-2020.
From now on, close collaboration is expected between Slovenia and Macedonia due to the Memorandum on Cooperation signed by Slovenian Chamber of Craft and Small Business and Macedonian Chamber of Crafts. This way they intend to strengthen their business activities and collaboration, exchange information, know-how and experiences. Their goal is to achieve better and stronger collaboration between Slovenian and Macedonian entrepreneurs and craftsmen, and to further their friendly relations.

Should uniclic flooring be nailed
I just purchased uniclic bamboo flooring from Costco. I understand that a sub layer should be placed down first and subsequently the flooring. Wanted to know whether the planks should also be nailed to the plywood floor.
what does the manufacturer recommend?
No never nail or staple a click floor. Its click for a reason and not solid tounge and groove
Thank you!
Any flooring manufacturer that has a product worth installing will have a proper installation sheet contained in every carton of material, or online, typically both. Always, and I mean ALWAYS go to the manufacturers website and study the product installation file for your information, as well as any other relevant files. It doesn't matter what any of us say since we aren't going to be responsible for the warranty on your product. Always consult the source of the product (and I don't mean the store where you bought it) for the proper installation, maintenance, surface prep, adhesives, substrate requirements, etc.
Thank you very much!

Original Description

"Daffymitra lindae new species
(Figures 1-7)
Description: Shell (Figures 1-4) of moderate size (to 27.9 mm), thin, fragile, with matte surface, inflated, fusiform, tapering anteriorly, with conical spire. Protoconch (Figures 5-6) large, mammilate, 1970 µm in height, diameter increasing from 676 µm to 2570 µm in 2 5/8 convex whorls. Protoconch-teleoconch transition distinct (Figures 5, 6, arrow), marked by onset of weak closely spaced prosocline ribs. Teleoconch of 3 1/8 strongly convex, ovate whorls with rounded shoulder. Suture impressed. Axial sculpture of thin, sharply demarcated, weakly prosocline raised ribs, 42 on last whorl, 34 on penultimate whorl. Ribs closely spaced on first teleoconch whorl, becoming more widely spaced on later whorls, but again closely spaced along final 1/8th whorl. Spiral sculpture of very low, narrow cords, subequal in width, alternating in prominence, covering entire shell surface, about 50 on final whorl, 10 on penultimate whorl. Aperture large (0.74 shell length), broadly oval, smooth, deflected from shell axis by 15°. Outer lip very thin, weakly reflected, edge forming final axial rib, with shallow anal sinus at suture. Columella weakly sinuate, convex posteriorly, distinctly concave medially, and again anterior to 3 obliquely oriented, recessed folds (Figure 2). Central fold most pronounced, anteriormost fold even more obliquely oriented than central and posterior fold. Parietal callus, broad, very thin. Siphonal canal broad, long, well delimited from aperture. Shell color white. Periostracum thin, olive brown, covering entire shell. Operculum, radula and anatomy unknown.
Type Locality: Bellingshausen Abyssal Plain, 61°27' S, 94°58'-95°22' W, in 4419-4804 m [R/V ELTANIN cruise 23, sta. 1621, 10 Apr. 1966].
Type Material: Holotype, USNM 1080443, shell length 27.9 mm, final whorl length 23.4 mm, aperture length 21.5 mm, shell width, 13.5 mm.
Distribution: Known from the type locality only.
Etymology: This species is named for the senior author's wife, Linda Lee Harasewych.
Remarks: Despite the absence of anatomical and radular data, this new species can be unambiguously assigned to the family Volutomitridae on the basis of its distinctive shell shape, sculpture, presence of the diagnostic paucispiral mammilate protoconch, and weak columellar folds.
Seven genera are currently recognized within the family Volutomitridae (Cernohorsky, 1970; Bouchet and Kantor, 2004). The large size, long, broad aperture, and thin shell of this new species, as well as the presence of three obliquely oriented and deeply recessed columellar folds and a siphonal fold preclude its assignment to either the fossil genus Proximitra Finlay, 1927, or the Recent genera Conomitra Conrad, 1865; Microvoluta Angas, 1877; Peculator Iredale, 1924; or Magdalemitra Kilburn, 1974.
Conchologically, the new species is closer to the genera Volutomitra H. and A. Adams, 1853 and Paradmete Strebel, 1908, which are considered to be closely related (Powell, 1951: 165; Cernohorsky, 1970: 91). The 13 known species of Volutomitra are widely distributed in the World Ocean, ranging from South Africa, Southern Australia, New Zealand and to the Bering Sea in the Pacific, and from Colombia to the northern part of the Atlantic Ocean. Daffymitra lindae differs from all known species of Volutomitra in having a proportionally shorter spire and inflated rather than fusiform shell, coarse spiral sculpture and sharp, narrow, broadly spaced axial ribs, as well as columellar folds that are weak, recessed within the aperture and obliquely oriented rather than being strong, prominent, and nearly perpendicular to the columellar axis. The only species of Volutomitra with pronounced axial sculpture, V. erebus Bayer, 1971, from Colombia, has axial ribs that are thicker, more rounded, orthocline, and more densely spaced.
The genus Paradmete, contains six species, all confined to Antarctic and sub-Antarctic waters. Daffymitra lindae may easily be distinguished from Paradmete fragillima (Watson, 1882), the type species, as well as from P. briedensis Numanami, 1996, and P. arnaudi Numanami, 1996, by its larger size, shorter spire, inflated rather than narrowly fusiform shell, and distinctive narrow, prosocline axial ribs, as well as by its well demarcated siphonal canal. The Magellanic Paradmete crymochara (Rochebrune and Mabille, 1885) approaches Daffymitra lindae in size, but differs in its elongate, fusiform shape, absence of a distinct siphonal canal, and presence of four columellar folds. The distinctive Paradmete percarinata Powell, 1951, can be recognized by its prominent peripheral carina, sharply shouldered shell and pronounced columellar folds that are nearly perpendicular to the columellar axis. Most similar to Daffymitra lindae is Paradmete curta (Strebel, 1908), which reaches a similar size, has a low spire, and has axial ribs, which, however, are opisthochne rather than prosocline. Daffymitra differs in lacking a strong shoulder and in having an inflated shell shape with an attenuated anterior and distinctive siphonal canal.
The shell of Daffymitra lindae bears a surprising resemblance to some members of the Mesozoic genus Volutomorpha, particularly V. mutabilis Wade, 1926 (see Wade, 1926: pl. 37, fig. 10, pls. 40, figs. 6, 9; Sohl, 1964: pl. 39, figs. 1, 2, 6). Volutomorpha was restricted to the Upper Cretaceous faunas of the Gulf and Atlantic coastal plains (for a review, see Sohl, 1964: 252-254), and was "the giant of Cretaceous gastropods" (Wade, 1926: 20) with shell lengths extrapolated to exceed 45 cm. Pilsbry and Olsson (1954: 19) included Volutomorpha in the Cretaceous subfamily Volutodermatinae, which they placed in the family Volutidae together with Volutomitrinae. More recently, Dzhalilov (1977: 93) proposed a new subfamily Volutomorphinae, also within Volutidae, while Bouchet et al. (2005: 255) considered Volutomorphinae a synonym of Volutodermatinae, which they transferred from Volutidae to the extinct family Pholidotomidae.
While Daffymitra is easily distinguished from Volutomorpha by its far smaller size, thinner shell, absence of thick axial ribs, and lack of a pronounced shoulder, this conchological similarity raises the intriguing possibility that Daffymitra is a "living fossil," a surviving descendent from a group presumed to have become extinct at the end of the Cretaceous. Further research is clearly required to reevaluate the relationships between the various Cretaceous genera assigned to Volutoderminae and the earliest Volutomitridae.
The family Volutomitridae has a broad geographic range, but has previously been known only from continental shelf and continental slope faunas, while the genus Paradmete has been reported only from shelf and upper slope depths (Figure 7). The greatest diversities for both the family and the genus occur at upper continental slope depths.
Although Daffymitra lindae is represented by a single empty shell, the fragility of the shell, the presence of periostracum, and the fact that it was collected below the aragonite compensation depth indicate that the specimen could not have been dead for long, and that the species inhabits the area in which this specimen was collected. Thus, this taxon represents the first record of Volutomitridae from abyssal depths. In a survey of Antarctic and Magellanic Buccinoidea, Harasewych and Kantor (2004) found that the abyssal buccinoidean fauna of the region has no genera in common with the sublittoral or bathyal faunas, but that credible sister taxa and likely origins for at least some of the abyssal genera occur on the adjacent continental slope. Based on shell morphologies, the genera Volutomitra, Paradmete, and Daffymitra appear to represent a lineage within Volutomitridae distinct from the predominantly austral genera Proximitra, Conomitra, Microvoluta, Peculator, and Magdalemitra. The genus Paradmete, a member of the upper slope fauna of Antarctica, is likely the sister taxon of the abyssal genus Daffymitra.
This research was supported by a grant from the NSF – USAP United States Antarctic Program [Contract Number OPP-9509761]. We are grateful to Bruce Marshall for bringing to our attention the similarity of Daffymitra and Volutomorpha."

Canadian miners scrap over gold discovery after mega deal
By Allison Martell
TORONTO, Sept 5 (Reuters) - On one side, the founder of top miner Goldcorp Inc, his young apprentice, an aggressive securities lawyer, and a tiny company based in a Quebec mining town. On the other, the chief executives of two leading Canadian gold miners, fresh off one of the biggest deals of their careers.
Some of Canada's best-known mining executives are sparring over the early-stage but promising Odyssey gold discovery in Quebec, near Canadian Malartic, the country's biggest gold mine.
The legal fight has its roots in the C$3.9 billion ($3.6 billion) takeover of Osisko Mining Corp, the mine's builder, this year. Yamana Gold Inc and Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd teamed up to beat a hostile bid by Goldcorp, taking control of Canadian Malartic.
At the heart of the dispute is who, if anyone, will profit from Odyssey, one of Osisko's assets. If early drilling results at the exploration site pan out, it could be a choice addition to the Canadian Malartic mine, extending its life.
Abitibi Royalties Inc, listed on Venture, the Toronto Stock Exchange's market for small, growth companies says it was Osisko's minority partner, and the deal has triggered its right to take control of part of Odyssey. Yamana and Agnico dispute that claim.
Tiny Abitibi was little known before it challenged the two mining heavyweights, but it has a big backer in Rob McEwen, who ran Goldcorp until 2005, and it has doubled down even as Yamana and Agnico dismiss its challenge as opportunistic.
In June, McEwen's protege Ian Ball joined Abitibi's board, along with Joe Groia, a lawyer and former head of enforcement at Canada's top securities regulator. In July, McEwen invested C$2 million in Abitibi. In August, Ball became president.
Canada's tightly-knit gold industry, home to three of the world's top five gold producers, has been split by conflict in the wake of major deals before. Barrick Gold Corp tussled with Goldcorp for two years over the El Morro project in Chile until 2012. Continued...

Coolant leak - Intake Manifold

Mein Auto: car
View My Garage
Hi Vegas
That was just an ideal list based on the fact that the intake manifold is a big deal to remove, and makes so many things easy to do once it is out. You don't have to do it all of course.
The m50 engine's setup compressed many things together (and yes the writeup for the E36 is the same as the E34 provided its for the same m50 engine). You're going to pay the same amount in terms of time and/or money to remove and reinstall it, so it makes sense to avoid duplicating efforts and eliminate future risks. I mean, I'm sure you did pretty much nothing to even accidentally provoke the leak that you've spotted. How did it get there then? The car is old. Many things in our car were not made to last for 20+ years. We have to stay ahead of the curve out of necessity.
At the very least, clean out your idle control valve. This just requires 10 minutes and some carb cleaner ($8/can). It will smoothen out your idling or at least prevent it from getting worse. Depending on who you speak to, the ICV needs to be cleaned once every 6 months or once every year. Third, at least check on your fuel injectors as described above, since you'll be removing the rail anyway. It will only take you an additional 10-15 minutes and at least you'll know if there's an impending problem. The car does not always throw codes for buggy components and its cool to see your own car's injectors in action. Fourth, take good closeup pictures of each of your intake valves for inspection later. Takes less than 5 minutes, and they will probably look very good not to worry but its fun to have pictures. 5th, do a 1 second hard spray of carb cleaner directly onto each intake valve as soon as the manifold is removed even if the valves look good. By the time everything is reinstalled, any excess cleaner would have evaporated out of the intake valve area, and the carb cleaner will dislodge the looser carbon bits which will become expelled once the engine starts running. So this takes 6-7 seconds total. 6th and imo critical would be you replacing the CPS. If you do not do this now (and have not ever done this), you will regret it later as old ones fail unexpectedly and leave you stranded without a functioning engine literally anywhere and at anytime. A very common no-start issue for the E34. $90 and 5 minutes work when the intake manifold is off, even if you have big hands
. Not doing this means you are taking a bad risk imo.
The starter and alternator would be nice but not strictly necessary they are generally good risks to take. However, if I were you, I would have that alternator checked at a battery shop. It takes less than 5 minutes for them to put it through its paces and the service (along with the battery's reserve charge check) is also free. If a problem is spotted, at least you'll have the opportunity to decide if you wish to get to it at the same time as when you replace your main coolant hose.
Top up your coolant at least once every day, keep spare water in the trunk, and keep an eagle eye on your thermometer while driving until this problem is fixed.
And very importantly (unless you are a very seasoned DIYer), please do give yourself plenty of time to do this. It is potentially stressful and stress tends to generate unforced errors, compounding the situation.
Cheers, Roberto

I learned this morning, via JoeMyGod, that the NFL has added "sexual orientation" to its list of protected classes in the current collective bargaining agreement. Further, I learned through the site that Joe referenced that it's very likely that the New England Patriots' owner Bob Kraft may well have been a driving force behind the move.
Outstanding! And how much do I love that it didn't take a player coming out to make this happen? Way to be proactive, Gentlemen; would that more people and institutions would follow your example!

Inside the Numbers:
•Quarterback Deaunte Mason leads the Bulldogs with 1,873 yards passing and 16 touchdown passes. He has recorded five games of at least 200 yards passing and five with at least two TDs passes. He also has 318 yards rushing and is a threat to make plays with his feet.
•Montarius Smith leads AAMU with 44 receptions for 486 yards. He caught 10 passes for 100 yards this past Saturday.
•Kaderius Lacey leads the Bulldogs with 891 yards rushing, which includes three games of more than 100 yards rushing. During the six games in which Lacey has had 17 or more carries this season he has averaged 119.3 yards rushing.
•Linebacker Vernon Marshall leads the team with 94 tackles this season followed by linebacker Montay Rover with 51 stops.
•Defensive end Reginald Bailey leads the Bulldogs in tackles for lost yardage with 9.5 tackles. The Bulldogs have 71 tackles for loss on the season, which is ranked 17th nationally at the FCS level.
•The Bulldogs run the football 58 percent of the time They have rushed for at least 150 yards five times this season. Lacey is a big, physical back at 6-0, 218.
•Auburn quarterback Jonathan Wallace enters the game with a pass rating of 160 as he makes his third start of the season.
Jonathan Wallace is a freshman from Central High in Phenix City.
•Tre Mason leads Auburn in rushing with 739 yards on 138 carries. Onterio McCalebb adds an additional 469 yards on 76 carries.
•Emory Blake enters the game with 45 receptions, 15 short of tying the school record of 60 receptions in one season. During the last six games he has been targeted close to nine times per game so the opportunity is there to reach the school record.
•Demetruce McNeal (90) and Daren Bates (89) are closing in on 100 tackles for the season as Auburn's leading tacklers this season.
What to watch for...
•Alabama A&M has a large offensive line so look for the Bulldogs to lean on their big running back and physical quarterback to test the Auburn front seven. Auburn has struggled with mobile quarterbacks and Mason will challenge the defense.
•The Bulldogs' rotation on the defensive line averages 262 pounds, which means Auburn should be able to establish its power running game and expose a run defense that has allowed more than 150 yards rushing four times this season. This could be another big day for the combination of Tre Mason and Onterio McCalebb.
•Though the Alabama A&M defense lacks size, it is quick and aggressive with 71 tackles for loss and 19 sacks this season. Watch for plenty of blitzes as Alabama A&M attempts to take advantage of an inexperienced Auburn offensive line.
•The Bulldogs are No. 9 at the FCS level in pass efficiency defense, which could pose a challenge to true freshman Jonathan Wallace.
•Auburn's defensive line accounted for only 19.1 percent of the team's tackles through the first eight games. During the last two games it spiked to 36.4 percent, which could translate to a productive outing for the Auburn front four.
Keys to victory...
•It will be important for Auburn to get off to a quick start and not allow an out-manned FCS school to believe it can compete in this game. The Tigers need to establish their running game early, something they failed to do against New Mexico State. They need to establish the run to open up the passing game for Wallace.
•How focused will the Tigers be this Saturday facing a FCS opponent and Auburn in the midst of one of the worst seasons in school history? You can count on Alabama A&M being pumped for the game, competing against one of the major programs in the state for the first time. The Bulldogs are 4-1 on the road and Auburn is 2-5 at home.
•Auburn needs to limit the mental errors and miscues that have plagued this team all season. Penalties, turnovers and missed tackles have been the norm for this squad, which could turn this into a competitive game if the trend continues on Saturday.
•If Wallace continues to improve and plays well, the Tigers should easily dispose of the Bulldogs, but this team's history of slow starts could prevent the Tigers from pulling away until the second half.
Final Word...
When this game was initially scheduled it was for the sole purpose of having a break before facing Alabama on the road the following week. What was intended as a bye-week scrimmage now has the appearance of an in-state battle. The Bulldogs will come into Jordan-Hare with a chip on their shoulder and something to prove.
The primary concern for Auburn has to be where the players stand mentally. Are they now simply going through the motions with a desire to end the season and refocus for 2013? During Auburn's last two conference games the results have given the appearance of Auburn being the FCS program, including fans beginning to file out of the stadium by halftime.
Auburn's seniors will be playing their final game at home, which should be plenty of motivation to compete. The freshmen who have seen recent playing time will continue to compete, soaking up the moment of being able to contribute early.
An issue with freshmen is how hard do they continue to fight when the game begins to go south? As fans we tend to point out when the players supposedly quit, but isn't it human nature to lose some of your will when you reach a point of hopelessness? There are indeed players who give 100 percent from start to finish despite the environment, but I find it strange that fans who walk out of the stadium when the team plays poorly become critical of the players they believe have quit.
This has been a season anyone associated with Auburn wants to end as soon as possible. It is a feeling of wanting to "get over it" and move on to better days. Fans can turn off the television or walk away from the stadium, but the players and the coaches have to continue to work and compete.
Not anyone feels as much pain and disappointment over this season as the players themselves. One advantage they still possess is their youth and with youth comes resiliency. By nature athletes have competitiveness pulsating through their veins, some more than others. This combined with their physical advantages over Alabama A&M should insure victory this Saturday.
It might not look pretty this weekend, but the 2012 Tigers will secure what will be their third and final victory of the season. Auburn 38, Alabama A&M 17

The top question about study Bibles
06/02/2016 in: App Tips, Bible Study Articleson
One of the most common questions people often ask about a particular study Bible is,"What translation is it in"?
The beauty of using a digital study Bible in the Olive Tree Bible App is that you can actually use them with any translation that you prefer and they will give you the same great insight. Our store offers study Bibles as either notes only or as two files that contain the notes and the Biblical text. Regardless of which study Bible you use in our app, they all function the same way.
The most common way that study Bibles are used is by accessing them in the Resource Guide where you'll find the study notes appear under the commentaries section. Like anything in the Resource Guide, they are connected to the text you have open in the main window and as such will work with any translation you are reading from.
For Example: In the screenshot below, taken from the Olive Tree Bible App on a PC, I have an NIV Bible open in the main window and the notes from The Message Study Bible open in the Resource Guide. Even though the translation is different these notes stay in sync with the Bible text no matter what translation I'm using.
Watch this video for more on how study Bibles work in the app:

Can someone tell me about some hostels in Prague that will take senior citizens, perhaps not too far from main attractions and the Jewish quarter and Terezin? Obvously we are not interested in a partying type of hostel, just a clean homey place with breakfast where we can get a private room, with our own shower, and be able to walk to sights, or if not, take a tram-but we do like to walk if not too far. Also as we will be away for a month, will have 2 large suitcases, on wheels, and need them to be there, when we come back into the room.
Thanks for any suggestions,

Safe hostel for senior citizens in Prague in October
Can someone tell me about some hostels in Prague that will take senior citizens, perhaps not too far from main attractions and the Jewish quarter and Terezin? Obvously we are not interested in a partying type of hostel, just a clean homey place with breakfast where we can get a private room, with our own shower, and be able to walk to sights, or if not, take a tram-but we do like to walk if not too far.

Terezin is not in Prague: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresienstadt_concentration_camp

You need to state a budget. Depending upon that budget, there may be hotels that fit the bill.
You cannot walk to Terezin from Prague unless you feel a 35 mile walk one way is just a day's wander.
Report Abuse
You should be able to travel with suitcases that you can lift yourself on overhead racks if necessary (which my wife cannot do). In my mind, that is a 22" carry-on, which is what we had for 9 weeks of travel this past spring and summer. Whether traveling for a week or a month comes out to be the same: you'll need to do a laundry on a weekly basis and do not take items that need dry cleaning.
For a sense of price for rooms and apartments in Prague:
Report Abuse
I didn't think there was an age limit on hostels. Have you looked at the hostel web sites and ratings?
Are you only going to Prague for a month? How are you arriving? If by train then you may not be able to manage large suitcases, lifting them up onto the train and getting them on the overhead racks.
A month requires a 19" or 21" maximum size. Do not bring a steamer trunk as you will regret it.
In general, this is not a forum where people stay in hostels.
In Prague I stayed in a small, clean pension near the castle, about a 15 minute tram ride from the center. It was what you would expect of European pensions - not fancy. It's on a tram stop and you have your own key to get into the building and for your room. The owners live on premises but there is not a 24 hour reception. The price for a double room with two beds is about $90 per night with a nice breakfast.
I checked 3 Prague hostels for you. The first 2 did not have private bath or did not have private rooms. The third hostel did have a double room ensuite for $104 per night. Hostels are not that cheap if you don't want to be in a dorm with other people.
BTW - I do not think your large suitcases will not fit in hostel lockers.

www.booking.com will give you a lot i=of options including hostels and cheap hotels.
this website has lots of good info,I know the guy that runs the website and his info is excellent.
don't discount staying away from the main sites as Prague has a superb integrated transport system.I normally stay in the Dejvicka area of the city,easy to get to from the airport but with loads of lnks to every part of the city.
you could consoder a small apartment which might work out fairly cheap.
this website will let you see options.at lost of these have laundy facilities which mean you can dispose of lugging huge suitcaes about.terezin is easy to get to from Holesovice bus station or there are organised tours. jewish area is easily reached form any part of Prague using the trams or metro

this is a Trip Advisor thread about getting to Terezin.
You may also be interested in Lidice,the village that was destroyed by the nazis after the Hydrich assassination,a sad but facinating place with a wonderful museum which tell the heatbreaking story and has visoe of the few suviviors and their stories.easy to get to from Prague by bus 9about 20-30 minutes from Zlicin or Dejvicka.

As BigRuss wrote, please give us your budget. Also the dates if possible. October is normally a high season but maybe you still get a hotel close to your budget. I have stayed in Prague for a few times in Christmas in a very central, in Mala Starana, very decent 3* hotels for less than €30.00 per night breakfats included for example even though I know that's low season rate.

"Lidice" by Edna St. V. Millay will put that place/event in great perspective. You might check out convents for accom. and as everyone points out..size of baggage is paramount.

3 star Botel Admiral generally offers bed and breakfast rates that rival hostel rates, and it is (obviously) right in the river, in the city. We have stayed there, it is clean and a fun place to spend the night--because BOAT.

do you know the site airbnb ?? You can get pretty reasonable places to stay.
Report Abuse
I can recommend the Hotel Maximilian. It was pretty reasonable when we stayed there a few years ago. The rooms were comfortable and the hotel was well located on a quiet street. The best thing about the hotel was their amazing breakfasts -- the best I've had in Europe. The large array of tasty foods enabled us to skip lunch or just grab something light.
The hotel was able to arrange a tour for us to Terezin which we found much easier than trying to take public transportation to get there.

Have you thought about Priceline? In summer 2012, we got a room at the Hilton on Celnici for $75.00night. It didn't come with breakfast but there is a lovely French oriented cafe that served a lovely breakfast for $5-10.

Roll cage??
I am very cheap and I like doing everything possible to save money.. I want to fabricate my own roll cage, what materials are good and strong enough?? I was thinking like 1 1/2" water pipe, I don't know the wall thickness. Any ideas? I have a Mig welder and a the tubing notcher which I call a "fish mouth tool" I can borrow a bender from sombody, I'm pretty much set except for tubing. Thanks!
1.5" h2o pipe is galvanized isn't it? and way too heavy for what you want to do, check with your local scrap yard or iron works for scrap pieces of something like 1-3/4''OD x .134'' wall thickness, or 1-5/8" OD x .134" wall thickness.....
much lighter, and NO deadly welding fumes.......
Do you ever plan on racing your car at any racing originations ? If you do you might want to see
what the minimum requirements are to pass tech inspection .Nothing wrong with being cheap but if
your going through trouble of building a cage do it right and use the proper materials. I love the rem
piles at the local steel suppliers. Good Luck
Ok Here's the info on pipe....schedule 40 x 1 1/4 pipe is very close to the same 1 5/8 x 125 wall mild steel tubing which is plenty strong enough for a roll cage. It is seam welded and you can get it in black pipe. Not all pipe is galvanized.... If you need any more info, just ask........GlennK
The car is going to be a street/strip car.. Mostly race but I want it street legal so I race in the street class, it will only see the streets a couple times a year. I believe water pipe is galvanized, I have welded it before and it is dangerous from what I have heard but I have never had any problems.. Yeah I sound really smart but can't I use a automotive style resperator and be fine as long as it will fit under my welding helmet? Doesn't make since.. like if you buy tubing for farm use it's cheap but if it's for a race car it's really expensive for the same thing, My local welder told me that, I'll probably end up buying some made for frame work. Still thinking of the water pipe idea??
What kind of car do you have? You may want to look into Chris Alstons or Pully Engineering for the "U-Weld " kits. Autopower may have a bolt in bar for your car already.
I know every rule book I have seen (circle track)Im not sure about the dragstrips but they wont allow water pipe for cage use. I dont know what is stuctual different between water pipe and cage material but im sure there is a reason. Also remember not to grind any of your welds
My local track.. They don't even do an inspection test, you just have to wear a helmet running anything under 9 sec (it's an 1/8th mile track) If you have a fast car they need to be able to see the wheel studs. You have to be 16 to race. I'm gonna go to my local hardware store tonight and look at water pipe and see if it's a joined piece or single, take some calipers and measure the wall thickness.. etc, Thanks
be safe as possible. do it right. and all that stuff......its your life.
they dont inspect your car? then just make it out of PVC
HHAHA just kidding someone at my school built a cage out of water pipes with a mig welder it seamed strong enough and it didnt look that hard to build oh yea also "measure twice cut once" or something like that
I always use PVC tubing to get the angles right before I chop into the steel pipe. Alot cheaper to throw out a bunch of plastic pipe.
I guess you didn't read what I wrote. DO NOT USE GALVANISED PIPE!!!!! Go to a steel supply and ask for 1 1/4 black Schedule 40 pipe. The wall is a little thicker than 1/8" It will weld good and be strong enough if you make a cage out of it...You can even buy a bender from Harbor Freight for cheap and it will work great. I would not hesitate to go that way. If you don't think the wall thickness is thick enough, ask for schedule 80 pipe.. As I said before, 1 1/4" dia pipe is a little bigger than 1 5/8" tubing ... Back when I was building chassis, the rules for NHRA was 1 5/8 x 125" for mild steel and 1 5/8 x .095 for chrome moly...GlennK
I will definatly check it out. How much should I need to make a 8 point cage, would 40' do it? What price should I be looking at for just the pipe material, will it be cheaper than buying a pre-fab cage? Could someone explain the difference between pipe and tube? Thanks
Black iron pipe is to brittle to be used for a roll cage, never mind heavy. Mild steel is all you should be looking at if you want to save a few bucks, the SCCA allows only mild steel to be used in cage construction.
Pipe is sized by ID, tubing by OD.
It's your life, don't be a Darwin award winner.
She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself.
Han Solo
Pipe being too brittle ??? Hogwash. It'll bend before it'll break...I've been a pipe fitter for over 30 years and the only difference in the metal is the finish and the size. You can get pipe in just about any alloy you want. Ive worked with just about all of it.........GlennK

Heath Pearce has looked a shell of his former self for much of this season, and now we know why.
According to sources familiar with the situation, Pearce has been dealing with a hip injury for much of the current campaign and is expected to undergo surgery in the near future to repair the damage. The sources did not reveal when exactly Pearce sustained the knock but did say that the surgery would be season-ending.
READ: Lade expected to fill in for injured Pearce
A versatile veteran, Pearce has endured a frustrating 2013 season. He began the year as a starter but fell out of the lineup when head coach Mike Petke opted to go with Markus Holgersson at center back and Roy Miller at left back.
In total, Pearce started in 11 of the 14 games he played in this year. He had two assists in those appearances.
The Red Bulls had no comment when asked about Pearce's status. They host the Houston Dynamo on Sunday (2 pm ET; ESPN2, LIVE chat on MLSsoccer.com) in MLS regular-season play.

We're here at the last session of the conference, covering privacy controls and concerns. The large panel includes:
- Allen Hurff, Senior Vice President of Engineering at Myspace
- John McCrea, Vice President of Marketing at Plaxo
- Dave Morin, Senior Platform Manager at Facebook
- Chris Saad, CEO of Faraday Media & DataPortability Project
- Dave McClure, 500 Hats
- David Recordon, Six Apart
- Brian Oberkirch, Founder, Small Good Thing (moderator)
Brian: We as service providers really understand privacy issues while users may not much of the time. What are your users telling you in regards to data going in between sites?
Allen: I think we've all been talking about users a lot. The user comes before the developer. I think people are finding places to build their identity and they don't want to spend time registering tons of times on different sites.
Morin: Our users just want to be on other sites or on Facebook and see their friends. A lot of the times the conversation takes into account the fact that these are 80 million people that are used to using a site in a certain way. Overall, It is important that the user experience is good in the end. Users just want to have their friends with them, as evidenced by the millions of sites using contact address imports across the web.
McClure: The biggest issue that the average web user deals with is losing their password. If the solution to that problem is to enable users to take their friends around the web with them than I think we are stating the problem in the wrong way.
Morin: The user name and password combination is just a means of validation. Social networks are the place users have built up robust identities. For the first time there is this really great identity that can potentially help users log in anywhere.
John: We've been doing data portability since before there was social networking. We have millions of users that have different tools but the problem is that these tools don't work together. The social web we are trying to cobble together has a lot of broken use cases. Mainstream users aren't asking for Open ID etc but they are saying "wow, this seems painful that I have to register on a million sites."
Recordon: If you can solve the problem equally using proprietary standards versus open standards it's better to use open standards.
John: Now open means give me my data and let me take it to different sites. Those of us that want to mashup these useful services are having to pay the developer tax of creating in multiple different environments.
McClure: I have a negative reaction when people say open is better. Better is better whether the solution is open or proprietary.
Morin: In regards to dynamic privacy, a simple example of is when I choose to use my Facebook profile picture and name on another site and then change that same picture on Facebook I want that change to be reflected on that other site as well automatically.
Brian: What about the longevity of data on these other services? How do I un-share data as a user?
Morin: The most standard way that happens today is by removing that friend or moving that friend to a different friend list.
Allen: At Myspace our solution currently is that we are not letting people cache data. When the granularity is there so that other sites can take action when users make dynamic changes than changes will be assessed in this regard.
Morin: It's less about the communication and more about the identity. Ultimately having control over that is pretty important.
Recordon: So Myspace's solution is to prevent the caching of data. Is that your approach at Facebook?
Morin: We are working on solutions where we ping you as a user to inform you of a needed change.
Brian: Who owns the data?
Allen: The user without any doubt.
McClure: Are you sure about that? You could argue that MySpace and Facebook have created free services in exchange for part ownership.
Morin: Once you post something on Livejournal Google makes that content available forever. What is your stance on that?
Brian: The underlying question there is do users really understand what's happening?
Recordon: We've seen today that users are very much jarred by that context.
Brian: How can we educate and bring users along? What is the ideal user experience like?
Recordon: That was something that I actually think the Google Friend Connect interface did well in that it was very explicit and clear. It allows you to specifically pick what particular pieces of data you wanted to share.
McClure: Do you think most people understand the options?
Recordon: Not mainstream no.
McClure: I don't think the options are useful for the average user. Trying to solve the problem in an open universe may put the solution two years out unnecessarily.
Allen: I think it's often the case that proprietary gets you there faster but too often the process ends too soon.
Chris: I think we continually try to boil the ocean with these questions. From my perspective the idea of a one way sync is a bad approach. APIs that are discoverable and open standards are step two.
Morin: I think the solution needs to be more consumer. You want to be able to login and bam, all of your friends show up immediately.
McClure: I want when I'm on a tennis website for example to be immediately presented with a handful of relevant contacts.
Chris: But that is actually after you have access to the data. Right now you have to code defensively against each of these services. Its not about working hard but its about scaling up.
Morin: One thing we found is that if you give users the privacy controls that they need then I would argue that one of the best killer apps is around conversation.

Virtues in Leadership - Honoring the Presidential Inauguration
Monday, January 21, 2013 from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM (EST)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Join Sister Jenna on Inauguration Day for this special event exploring virtues in leadership and how we can learn from great leaders like Martin Luther King, Barack Obama, Gandhi, Lincoln, Mother Theresa, and Brahma Baba, the founder of the Brahma Kumaris.
What were some of the secrets behind leadership during times of chaos and adversity? We cannot predict the future and there will always be severe events beyond our control such as earthquakes, financial crisis, wars and other circumstances. Blaming others or situations is not a path to success. Consistently working towards one's objectives in good and bad times is a method that great leaders have used to achieve tangible results. In good times, this allows them to avoid being weak and undisciplined and in bad times they can continue making progress. Join us for a special session as we share stories on the founder of the Brahma Kumaris, Brahma Baba and how Dr. King and many others, have used virtues that have led consciousness towards a more selfless and meaningful way of life.

For the first time since 1999, Pitt had no players selected in the NFL Draft, but six former Panthers said Saturday night that they agreed to free-agent contracts.
Included among them is outside linebacker Brandon Lindsey, who is joining the Steelers. Lindsey, an Aliquippa graduate, said he fielded offers from the Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers before choosing the Steelers.
"There's no place like home," he said on his Twitter account.
Lindsey said watching the draft was no fun.
"I stopped watching after a while," he said.
Others who found new homes include defensive lineman Chas Alecxih (Miami), linebacker Max Gruder (Atlanta), guard Lucas Nix of Thomas Jefferson (Oakland), linebacker Greg Williams (Houston) and cornerback Buddy Jackson (Indianapolis). Nix and Jackson also had offers from the Steelers.
Alecxih said he watched every minute of the draft.
"It was horrible — like the worst experience ever," he said. "But things happen for a reason. I'm going to make the team."

Daily Mail & General Trust today warned that a late Easter has skewed the advertising market in the last four weeks, with ad revenues at its newspaper arm falling 7% against a year ago.
Shares at the owner of the Daily Mail tumbled nearly 6% as it also said the roll-out of a new business-focused risk management service will be slower than planned.
Jonathan Helliwell, analyst at Edison Investment Research, said it was a "disappointment", even though DMGT remains on track to meet annual forecasts.
Concerns about the outlook detracted from a strong performance in the five months to February, with group revenues up 6% on an underlying basis. The website MailOnline was the stand-out performer, as ad revenues rose 51% or £8 million to £23 million.
Newspaper ad revenues rose 5% as digital growth offset print decline. DMGT is a minority share- holder in the Standard.Reuse content

My position is that until an engine is using more than a quart per 1K miles, there's not enough engine wear that you have a mechanical "imperative" to do something about it.!
I'm not trying to be a pain, I'm just pointing out that cars wear, oil consumption goes up, and there is no hard line where a pointer goes 'sproing" and tells you that you must take action.!
And this statement, I just flatly and absolutely disagree with: "...any engine designed in the last 30 years or so that is in good working order should not consume oil, not anything that can be measured with a dipstick anyway."!
How much consumption and how many miles on the engines? You make it sound like consumption is the sole purpose for using the dipstick . I've owned eight cars all with over 100k miles to 265k miles and the Subie was the only one that went though oil. They ranged from 81 to 05 foreign and domestic.
You can do a leakdown compression test to test the rings. Smoke when you remove the oil cap is an indicator or a broken ringland too. I fully understand that engins eventually consume oil towards the end of their life cycle, but exsesive consumption is not the norm at 100k mile. Would I have the engine rebuilt? No, but I would start thinking of my next car. Any properly maintained modern engine at the very LEAST should be able to go over 200k.

I have a N82 Tactical Holster (IWB) for my Windicator, and I love it. I use a shoulder rig for my 24/7 Pro .45. (Haven't found any other good concealed holsters for it yet)
Printable View
I have a N82 Tactical Holster (IWB) for my Windicator, and I love it. I use a shoulder rig for my 24/7 Pro .45. (Haven't found any other good concealed holsters for it yet)
Thanks for all the great input and advice everyone!!
The secret to successful IWB carry is to buy a size larger clothes. If your pants/shorts are size 36, buy size 38 to accommodate your handgun/holster. I have been doing this for 40 years - No Problem.
Invest in quality belt and IWB holster and you can carry even a large heavy handgun IWB with shorts and a t-shirt and no one can tell. The right equipment makes it both easy and comfortable. For all of the reasons we carry, it is well worth the investment in good equipment to make it easy for us to do so.
PS. I also find buying pants and shorts with the expandable waistband makes it super easy to carry IWB. Different clothes companies have various names for it, but it is basically a slot on each side at 3:00 position with an overlapping area and a swath of material (stretchy or not) that can give up to an inch or so on each side.
The majority of my carry time has been OWB...I have a number of different brands, but really settled on a nice belt slide style from Lobo Gun Leather...
So recently, I went back to Lobo and got a very nice IWB, and I love it...
I picked up two pair of Levis and some summer shorts one waist size bigger than I normally carry for IWB...and I am very surprise with the comfort level and the serious lack of printing...
If I carry OWB, I have a collection of shirts in a size that really keeps things concealed...
I've got three Galco OWB's for the various guns and a Galco Hidden Agenda that nicely conceals a Walther PPK/S and two extra magazines. I also have a concealment T-shirt and a belly band. Depending on the occasion, I can usually find something comfortable to wear.
If you're going to carry concealed, you have to be prepared to dress around the gun. This is a lifestyle change. A few recommendations that are probably going to summarize advice already given:
-Get a belt designed to carry the weight of a gun. A cheap, flimsy belt lets the gun sag and pivot
-Get a quality IWB and OWB holster
-To insure that you can carry the gun IWB comfortably, purchase your pants/jeans/trousers 2" oversize
-Form fitting or close fitting shirts are out. You need enough excess material to "blouse" and minimize printing
-Change the way you move. If something is on the top shelf at the store, reach for it with your off-side hand. Bottom shelf, kneel, don't bend over. This will reduce the possibility of printing or uncovering your weapon.
As I said, carrying a weapon is a change in lifestyle, the biggest change being the presence of the weapon itself. In addition to clothing and equipment, it neccessitates a different mindset than the general public has. A mindset of greater tolerance of the little things that people do.
I agree with the above advice. I have several holsters for my main carry gun. OWB, IWB, tuck able and smart carry... Preferred use, in that order.
I voted for a smaller firearm, AND to carry IWB.
I am 180-185 lb, 5-9, 1/2 tall.
I carry a S&W M&P 9c.
You sound like a big guy.
Even if you dropped some poundage, you probably would have a hard time with a very small 380'ish sized pistol.
I use a Desantis cozy partner holster, IWB. just wear some baggy shirts and you will conceal fine.
I am even able to tuck the shirt n around the holstered pistol, without it looking too odd.
I am the same boat also (except I am 5'8 180). I wanted something for my G19 and G26. It was a tossup between the Supertuck and the Comp Tac Mtac. I went with the MTac (Minotaur IWB), it came yesterday and it has been on be for 8.5 hours today around my house and property. Based on other reviews and my experience, this holster is awesome. I am going to also get the standard clips to go along with the c clips I selected. Love the flexibility.
I know I've tried every conceivable carry option imaginable, but I always come back to the more practical IWB. Notwithstanding, I enjoy a shoulder rig the best!
To start with, I live in FL where a concealed firearm needs only be concealed from "ordinary view." That means covered, as in can't physically see the firearm. No one gives a squat about printing--it's not "illegal" here. Any BG who suspects I have a firearm should probably think twice before proverbially targeting me. I'm just shy of sixty, have done more than my time in the serivice, put two wonderful kids through college, have hugged a great pair of grandkids, and if some dumb POS thinks I'm going to go down easy--bring it on! I've accomplished all of my goals except one; to die a happy man. So don't think I'm afraid to go out fighting.
Back to the thread on hand. I find IWBs marginally comfortable. OWBs are much easier to wear, almost as easy to "conceal", easier to draw from, and frankly, I don't give a rat's butt if some noisy old bitty "suspects" I have a firearm--I have a CWFL, you old coot! You should have one too!
5'9", 185 lbs. I wear shorts, except to church. Shoulder rigs didn't seem to work for me. Belt holster make my shorts fall down, literally. My TCP, I pocket carry. Any bigger gun is in a pocket pal. I know you guys pan it, but it works for me and doesn't "poof" out like a "smart carry" style.
Thanks again everyone Ive looked around some more and Ill most likely start by getting an IWB, maybe a supertuck or another Ive seen reccomended here Ive seen a couple that look like they will really work for me so thanks again for that. Once I can get some money saved up Ill most likely be getting a ruger LCR for the days I wear my tripp style pants and throw it right in a oversized pocket....heck if the grip was about 3/4" shorter I could throw my taurus 24/7 .40 in my tripp pants no problem lol.

The much-followed case in Kountze, Texas over whether cheerleaders can make huge banners with Bible verses on them for the football team to run through has its first real court ruling. A Texas state court judge has ruled in favor of the cheerleaders, but issued an opinion that has no substance whatsoever. The only thing the court says is:
The evidence in this case confirms that religious messages expressed on run-through banners have not created, and will not create, an establishment of religion in the Kountze community.
The Kountze cheerleaders' banners that included religious messages and were displayed during the 2012 football season were constitutionally permissible.
Neither the Establishment Clause nor any other law prohibits the cheerleaders from using religious-themed banners at school sporting events. Neither the Establishment Clause nor any other law requires Kountze ISD to prohibit the inclusion of religious-themed banners at school sporting events.
That's it, just a conclusion. There is no discussion at all of any legal precedents that justify that conclusion, no discussion of the question of private vs government speech or any other relevant questions in the case.
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott issued a statement that says, in part:
"This is a victory for religious liberties and for high school cheerleaders who stood up to powerful forces that tried to silence their voices. The Freedom From Religion Foundation was wrong in trying to bully Kountze ISD into prohibiting the cheerleaders from displaying banners with religious messages."
Uh huh. Now let a group of students in an identical situation do the same thing with verses from the Quran instead of the Bible and see how quickly Abbott tries to "bully" the school to prohibit that. I'd set the over/under at about 10 milliseconds.

Euclidean: You can disagree if you want to, but I'm speaking from personal experience as a part-time instructor. To this day, even after countless hours of 'pep talks' I still know people who carry chamber empty and still carry their 5-shot revolvers with an empty chamber under the hammer and an empty chamber following it.
When asked why, the usual response is, 'I don't want to shoot myself taking the gun off or putting it on...' which I counter with "keep your finger off the trigger and that won't happen." That ends with a blank stare from the student.
What can you do in that situation? Other than recommend that they leave the gun at home and carry pepper spray instead?
