Acerca del creador
Avia Huisman is currently a PhD Candidate in Comparative Studies at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, FL. She moved to Florida with her parents when she was five years old and has been exploring its wild places ever since. As a result, she is passionate about helping to preserve Florida's natural ecosystems and restore much of Florida's degraded swamps and wetlands to their natural state. Understanding that public support is key in such efforts, Avia uses her artist's eye to photograph Florida's remaining wild places. She hopes that by sharing Florida's natural beauty with the public that she may inspire those who see her photographs to learn more about Florida's Native Ecosystems and, ultimately, earn their support in protecting them.

Weekend Link Roundup (April 23-24, 2016)
April 24, 2016
Our weekly round up of noteworthy items from and about the social sector. For more links to great content, follow us on Twitter at @pndblog....
Arts and Culture
Americans for the Arts has released the sixth and final edition of the National Arts Index, its annual report the health and vitality of arts and culture in the United States. This edition, which covers the years 2002-13 and includes data on eighty-one national-level indicators, provides "provides the fullest picture yet of the impact of the Great Recession on the arts — before, during, and after." You can download the full report (4.38mb, PDF) a one-page summary, and/or previous reports from this page.
Climate Change
On his Nonprofit Chronicles blog, Marc Gunther suggests that is we are to avoid the worst effects of global warming, we not only have to radically reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we'will also need to figure out how to pull vast amounts of carbon dioxide out of the air. It's a daunting challenge, but we've got "a decade or two, perhaps" to figure it out, Gunther adds, and philanthropy, which has yet to devote much money to research on these technologies, has a real opportunity to make a difference.
In a Q&A here on PhilanTopic, the United Nation Foundation's Reid Detchon explains the significance of the Paris Agreement, which representatives of more than a hundred and seventy countries signed at a ceremony at the UN on Friday. And in a post on Medium, the National Resource Defense Council's Reah Suh argues that the accord represents the greatest opportunity the world has had to shift "from the carbon-rich fossil fuels of the past to the clean energy options that can power our future." home and abroad.
Google's philanthropic arm, Google.org, has just awarded $20 million to thirty nonprofits working to engineer a better life for the disabled around the globe. Wired's Davey Alba has the details.
On her Answer Sheet blog, Washington Post reporter Valerie Strauss shares key takeaways from Teachers Talk Back: Educators on the Impact of Teacher Evaluation, a new report written by a team of teachers and administrators headed by veteran educator Anthony Cody, co-founder of the Network for Public Education, and education historian and activist Diane Ravitch.
The Nellie Mae Education Foundation has launched an initiative called the Better Math Teaching Network. Learn more here.

When buying fabric I tend to error on the side of excess. I would rather have extra fabric than not enough. But sometimes, these extra bits become too much for me to stitch through. This is one of those times.
I have realized that my fabric collection is out of control and I need some assistance. So, I spent the better part of Wednesday sorting my fabric and noticing a major theme, scraps! I have a ton of larger size scraps. For some reason, I tend to keep them all in hopes that I will find a project to make with them.
After sorting out my main basket, I shifted to one of my larger bins out in the closet. This one was huge. With the help of my trusty assistant aka daughter, we put together a few heavy 1 lb fabric scrap bundles and have listed them in our Etsy Shop. All Scrap Bundles are listed as mystery packs. No two are the same.
Fabric Scrap Bundles
All scrap bundles include designer fabrics like: Alexander Henry, Amy Butler, Michael Miller, Riley Blake and so many more. Based on weight alone, each bundle is equal to 2.5 to 3 yards of fabric. The scraps vary in size and can from a fat quarter to a 4″ piece. There are no itty bitty scraps included in these destash bundles. The pictures are examples of a few bundles. Consider these fabric bundle listings like a mysterious surprise via snail mail or as I like to call it happy mail!
Not sure what to do with fabric scraps? Check out a few of my past projects here or follow my ever-growing Scrap Inspiration Pinterest Board. There are so many amazing projects on that board from all over the web.
So, head on over to the shop and infuse your fabric stash with some new prints and fun fabric.

Glenn Beck's New Black Panther hypocrisy problem
Blog ››› ››› JEREMY HOLDEN
Glenn Beck sidekick Stu Burguiere today accused Rev. Al Sharpton of "desecrating the dream" of Martin Luther King, pushing back on criticism that Beck has distorted King's message. Burguiere promoted video -- posted at Beck's new "The Blaze" website -- that he claims shows Sharpton devoting "a good portion" of his 2000 speech honoring King to "praising the New Black Panther Party" and its "shocking racism."
But this attack is nothing more than a hypocritical smear, given the fact that Beck himself honored a minister at his 8-28 rally this weekend who has worked with and hosted a leader of the New Black Panther Party.
His self-aggrandizement on full display, Beck asked Burguiere, "What's on the front page of The Blaze?" Burguiere went on to describe the "unbelievable" video that was posted under the headline, "Glenn's Disgrace? Shocking Racism at Al Sharpton's MLK Anniversary." He explained:
They have video of what happened at the march 10 years ago, and it's -- well, a good portion of it is Al Sharpton praising the New Black Panther Party, and then having Malik Zulu Shabazz of the New Black Panther Party go up and say all sorts of incendiary things that you absolutely have to see to believe.
The video juxtaposes clips from the 2000 Redeem the Dream rally with video from Beck's 8-28 rally and asks, in Burguiere's words -- "Which one's the disgrace? Which one's desecrating the dream?" He concluded, "I think it's fairly clear which one is which."
In the video, Sharpton is shown addressing a crowd and saying, "Get one of everything. Get one NAACP, one Urban League, one SCLC, one Nation of Islam, one Black Panther Party, one New Black Panther Party. Get one of everything, and tell them, 'Let's build this monument.'"
The claim of Beck's defenders -- that with these words Sharpton was "desecrating the dream" -- reeks of hypocrisy: During the 8-28 rally, Beck granted a "faith" medal to Rev. C.L. Jackson. Jackson, in fact, partners with New Black Panther member Quannel X in the Houston Crime Coalition.
In February 2009, Quannel X and Jackson were slated to participate in a town hall meeting to discuss violence in Houston. The event was held in Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church, where Jackson serves as pastor. A March 9 post at The Defender Network noted:
Quanell X was recently joined by Pastor C.L. Jackson and the Houston Crime Coalition to launch The Stop The Killing Summit, which opened up with a conference at the Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church. About 200 young men from local schools were on hand for The Stop The Killing Summit, which focuses on the importance of visualizing goals and manifesting success despite difficulties as well as non-violent conflict resolution strategies. The speakers touched on a variety of subjects including working on a better relationship between the Houston Police and community members, creating more jobs in impoverished areas in Houston, improving family life, getting children to do better in school and making people realize the impact of violence.
This is not to say that Jackson's work with Quannel X is necessarily problematic -- unless you share the selectively applied worldview of Glenn Beck and his defenders.
It's also worth noting that Beck's employers and colleagues at Fox News have a long-standing relationship with the New Black Panther Party, having hosted the group more than 50 times over the years.

14 Nov 2013 - 21 Dec 2013
Alan Cristea Gallery presents its first solo exhibition of work by Tom Wesselmann, whose iconic and often provocative work had a profound impact upon the development of American Pop Art. Alan Cristea Gallery is also pleased to announce that it is the exclusive European representative for prints from the artist's estate.
Wesselmann's choices of subject matter - nude, still life, landscape - are universally recognisable classical themes from the canon of art history. Over the course of his career, he reinterpreted these using his own distinctive visual language, characterised by a reductive line, bold, flat primary colours and often the inclusion of symbols of American culture and patriotism. Works included in this exhibition, such as Mixed Bouquet with Leger and Monica Sitting with Mondrian, clearly demonstrate his respect for a European painterly tradition, but are suffused with wit and a sense of playfulness indicative of that new generation of American artists.
As with many of his Pop contemporaries, Wesselmann appropriated source material not just from fine art but from everyday sources such as advertising, magazine pin-ups and household products. His egalitarian approach applied also to his innovative use of materials, bringing industrial paint and metals into his practice.
The exhibition at the Alan Cristea Gallery focuses on prints made during the latter half of Wesselmann's four-decade career, including some of his most significant etchings, aquatints and screenprints. Works from his influential Great American Nude series (begun in 1961) will be included in the exhibition. The series was born from Wesselmann's desire to create an iconic genre in the same way that Steinbeck, Mailer and Hemingway sought to create the 'Great American Novel'.
The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue featuring a text by Marco Livingstone, the preeminent writer on English and American artists of the Pop Art generation.
Tom Wesselmann (1931-2004) was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. He attended Hiram College in Ohio from 1949-51 before entering the University of Cincinnati. In 1953 his studies were interrupted after he was drafted into the army for two years, during which time he began to draw cartoons. After returning to his studies and receiving a bachelor's degree in psychology in 1956, Wesselmann decided to pursue a career in cartooning and enrolled in the Art Academy of Cincinnati, followed by studying in the Cooper Union in New York, where his focus shifted to fine art; he received his diploma in 1959. In 1959-60, Wesselmann became a founding member of the Judson Gallery along with Jim Dine and Marc Ratliff. In 1962 he was featured in the important New Realist exhibition alongside Dine, Oldenburg, Rosenthal and Segal at the Sidney Janis Gallery, and in 1977 his work was included in the American Art Since 1945 show at MoMA.

Thanks but problem remains. Sent PDF attachment to my self and, per troubleshooting guided recommended shows exactly as example Content-Type: application/pdf; name= "test.pdf" That would not open with left click (get Download Error statement). Using Right click gives only two choices: Open, or Save As. In the Downloads Actions list it shows correctly: PDF / Adobe Acrobat Document / (open with) Acrobat Reader 9.0 When I save I can immediately open with AR 9.0! No problems with JPGs etc, the other 'open-withs' work OK. Regret no progress.

A radical workaround should be to delete MimeTypes.rdf file in you rpofile foder (see http://kb.mozillazine.org/MimeTypes.rdf). If you use latest beta you can change this from TB http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/latest-comm-1.9.1/ ?

I am experiencing this bug on Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:22.214.171.124) Gecko/20091211 Lightning/1.0pre Shredder/3.0.1pre - My feeling is that this stopped working only very recently (a week or so) -> regression? - Other types of attachment work (e.g. double-click excel.xls file will prompt what to do). - the pdf file if saved is perfectly ok and TB also recognizes the format, showing correct pdf icon in attachment panel - I am not aware of having changed anything, just running Shredder as usual STR 1 Have these settings (default?): Tools > Options > Attachments: - about: always ask - Word doc: always ask - Always ask me where to save files (enabled) 2 a (received) mail with a valid pdf attachment (correct icon) 3 double click on the attachment Actual result - nothing (Status bar shows something for less than a second, maybe "downloading") where nothing means nothing, no question, no saving, no opening. In other words, I am forced to save attachment to view it. Expected - TB should ask me what to do with this file (open with/save) Not sure if I should confirm as symptoms in comment #0 are slightly different. Any information on this problem or what might have caused it? Recent patches?

Thomas you might have a corrupted mimestypes.rdf file. Anything in Tools -> Error console when you encounter the issue ?
Comment 8•

No, nothing in the error console. But other emails with pdf attachments from same company work fine (dialogue on double-click attachment). So it must be message-related. Weird though, correct icon and correct saving of a correct pdf file, just double-click on pdf-attachment does nothing on that first mail (the status bar says: "Downloading message", does that help?). Very similar behaviour to comment 2. I'll send Ludovic a copy of the message for analysis.

I use Thunderbird to send e-mails, including attaching PDF files for ad proofs to clients. Recently, including today, I have had clients call me and tell me that they are unable to open the PDF file attachment. They are all different types of accounts, including hotmail. If I turn the PDF file into a JPG they are able to open the JPG. Some clients can open their attached PDF files while others can't. I am on a Mac. This problem has happened with recipients being on both Mac and PC. I have not done anything different in creating my PDF files, my settings are all the same. The only thing that has changed recently was upgrading Thunderbird. I determined that it was a Thunderbird problem. I tested this theory this morning. I sent a PDF file as an attachment through Thunderbird. My client was not able to open it. So I logged in directly to my e-mail provider account (frontier webmail) and sent the exact same file as an attachment uploaded through the web. The client was able to open the exact same PDF file this way. This is a major problem that needs to be fixed. If my clients cannot open their proofs attached to their e-mails I will be forced to use abandon Thunderbird and use a different e-mail client.

Confirming for Earlybird 8.0a2 2011-08-19 It's message-related, works fine on some messages, still doesn't work on the test msg that I sent to Ludovic per comment 8. But saving the file from the non-working message and then viewing it from download manager works fine, so the message as such is not corrupted, so it appears to be a TB problem.
Comment 12•

I confirm this bug still occurs with the public last release of TB downloaded last week. Doubleclicking the attachment icon, or right clicking it and picking "open", does nothing. I suggest 539854 is a duplicate of this bug, since it seems to be the same error regardless of the specific file type, and this bug is the earliest report of it that I can find. Saying that is "message specific" is hardly helpful because receiving PDFs and DOCs from outlook users is a common use case for any email client today. The dependency of 539854 should be removed, it should be marked as a duplicate of this bug 459474, and all votes on the importance of 539854 should be counted as making this bug 459474 more important. Unless you have a time travel machine, 539854 depends on this one, not the other way around. It's been unresolved since 2008. Seriously. Thunderbird is *unusable* in its current release because of its inability to open attachments directly from email. As a user you would never put up with tedium like this in Outlook or Gmail or Eudora or Evolution. A similar bug was fixed in TB 2 in 2006: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346332 Did someone at Mozilla like the bug so much they decided to reintroduce it? Maybe you could find the code from TB2 that actually worked and see what's different in trunk? Critically defective for three years, yet opening attachments worked fine in TB 2.0 and in the original Mozilla suite email client in 2004. What a sad joke. Lifehacker recently promoted TB as the best email client for windows. I have emailed the author of that article at lifehacker to point out he could not have actually used TB and still write a glowing review about it because of this bug. Perhaps he will bring this bug to wider attention.
Comment 13•

The issue in the test case that a user gave us was that the content type of the attachment was incorrect; it was pdf instead of application/pdf. This isn't common since most mailers know how to set content types. But we should be able to handle it since we know the file extension. For some reason, by the time we get to opening the attachment, the uri is a message uri, and not a file uri, so we don't fall into the code that knows how to invoke the helper app. I'll look into it some more...
Comment 14•
6 years ago
Created attachment 564989 [details] [diff] [review] proposed fix The issue is that "pdf" is not a valid content type at all, which means NS_ParseContentType can't parse it, which means we end up with a content type of message/rfc822 because nsMsgProtocol::GetContentType returns that for empty content types. I could tweak this fix to only set the unknown content type if the original content type is not empty, though I don't think anyone is deliberately passing the empty string to SetContentType. Once we have the unknown content type, all the uriloader code that figures out the content type from the file extension gets a chance to shine. And then we'll show the app helper dialog.
Comment 15•

I am going to have to look more closely at the content type and file extension of the attachments that won't open, at least for bug ticket categorisation. I may have been wrong in thinking the real bug matches this bug ticket description. I can't do this right now because the bug does not affect me directly, it affects another computer my family has. If it only affected me I would not have been so angry in my earlier comment. The real bug I'm talking about does not produce an error message at all. It just does nothing when you use either double-clicking, File | Open Attachment, or the right-click context menu Open. This is an email which was received with the old Mozilla suite email client, and then migrated to Thunderbird during the new Thunderbird install last week. I searched for existing bug reports several different ways before deciding this bug was the closest match to what I have seen. Certainly other people have had a similar problem over the last 2 years on both Linux and Mac and no doubt on Windows too. * http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/cant-open-attachments-in-thunderbird-454328/ * http://getsatisfaction.com/mozilla_messaging/topics/thunderbird_3_wont_open_attachments_without_saving_on_mac * http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1442764 I have just searched again for a bug about Thunderbird on Windows containing the words "open attachment" and of the 71 bug titles listed I looked at the descriptions of about 10 of them and still cannot find an exact match for what I have seen. But I cannot believe nobody has reported this before, since it has been a problem for at least 2 years, possibly 4 years depending on which bug ticket matches. But I can dispel a few myths right now: The problem is NOT because of the attachment type being empty. The problem is NOT because of the attachment filename being empty. The problem is NOT because of the file extension being in lower case versus upper case. The problem is NOT because of the attachment being in a proprietary TNEF format. How do I know? Because the same attachment in the same email still opens correctly from the old Mozilla suite email client that originally received it and which still works fine on Windows XP. There is no problem with the data to be solved here that Mozilla hasn't solved already. Mozilla suite 1.7 email works better than the latest Thunderbird. That's the bottom line. If anyone can find an existing bug report which accurately matches my description above, I will apologise and transfer my descriptions and vote to the closest matching bug report.

Hello again. I have today had a chance to do a View Source on the message with the PDF that would not open in TB7. Content-Type: application/pdf; name="September 2011 Newsletter.pdf" Content-Description: September 2011 Newsletter.pdf Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="September 2011 Newsletter.pdf"; size=60726; creation-date="Wed, 07 Sep 2011 16:55:43 GMT"; modification-date="Wed, 07 Sep 2011 16:58:31 GMT" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 As you can see the email MIME content type is the correct one. As I said, this attachment opens okay using Mozilla email 1.7. What is very interesting is that I uninstalled TB7, then installed Thunderbird 3 (version string is "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:220.127.116.11) Gecko/20110920 Thunderbird/3.1.15" ) to see if this also has the bug. No, it does not. :-O In TB3 it prompts you to choose what to do with the PDF attachment and if you just click OK for the default action it opens in Acrobat Reader just fine. At this time as a workaround I would advise other people experiencing this "won't open attachments" bug to uninstall TB7 and install TB 3.1.15, which seems to detect and use your current email archive and account settings OK.

I can't find the test case, but essentially any mal-formed content-type would do, e.g., pdf instead of application/pdf, which is malformed because it doesn't have a '/' in the middle.
Comment 20•

In the last 3 days I have experienced this issue receiving and forwarding pdfs in the range 0.9 to 5 MB in size using TB on one pc, whereas with TB on another pc there was no problem. By using the web-based mail server instead of TB I was able to download an uncorrupted form of the pdf on the troublesome pc. By comparing the TB-corrupted version with the uncorrupted version, using Notepad, it is possible (1) to check that the two files look the same at the beginning but not at the end, and (2) to execute in the uncorrupted version a "Find" based on a few characters - say 40 to 50 characters - copied from the end of the corrupted version. Those characters are then found towards the end of the uncorrupted file, but not at the end itself - say 85 percent of the way through. This reveals that the end of the file - a substantial amount - is missing from the corrupted version. So something is causing the download of the file to appear to be complete but actually not be. I agree this is a serious flaw in TB.
Comment 21•

It might help if I also mention that (on the troublesome pc) the problem remains just the same if (1) the anti-virus software is temporarily disabled, or (2) TB is re-started with add-ons disabled. TB version is 184.108.40.20648

I also agree there is something not quite right about the download process. When the option "Save" is selected, no progress bar appears. Neither does any other indicator of how long one should be waiting for the download to complete. It seems to be very quick. This is not the normal situation. Could it be that the download itself (as distinct from the saving or opening process) is occurring altogether prematurely (perhaps only to a partial degree, hence the chopped-off file length) - and not waiting until initiated in the normal way? To test this idea I watched the "Networking" tab in Windows Task Manager. When saving or opening in TB, Windows Task Manager reveals zero network activity. When saving or opening the file via the web-based email server there is a huge spike in network activity for the duration of the download.

The message is in the offline store for the folder, so we don't have to download it from the server. But it's incomplete in the offline store, because the server reported an incorrect size for the message.
Comment 25•
5 years ago
Please tell me (and all users of TB) what TB setting I have to change to prevent this "offline store" being used in the first place. Surely I'm entitled to control over if and when I do and do not try to download an attachment.
Comment 26•

right click on folder, select properties, synchronization tab, uncheck the box that says "keep messages for this folder offline". You can also use the properties dialog, general tab, to clear the offline store by clicking the repair button, which will redownload all the headers, and clear the offline store.
Comment 27•

Please understand it's the attachments I have a problem with being stored blindly, not the email messages themselves. I suspect there might be a number of people who would agree with me this is a major issue.
Comment 28•
5 years ago
I'm so taken aback by this idea that attachments are being stored blindly on my machine that other things are only beginning to dawn on me. It helps explain why TB takes literally FOR EVER to go through its synchronizing paces. It's must be because it's synchronizing all those attachments. What a huge waste of time and disk space. Another thing which there needs to be separate control over for this "offline store" is what TB refers to as "Remote Content". I also need control - separate control - over whether Remote Content is saved locally. Just because I might choose to view Remote Content in a particular email does not mean I want that Rmote Content saved. I might, or I might not.
Comment 29•
5 years ago
attachments are parts of messages; they're not separate things. They almost always come at the end of the message, which is why if the server tells us the message is smaller than it is, the end of the attachment gets chopped off. Remote content is not part of the message (assuming you mean things like links to remote images) and thus is not stored in the offline store with the message. It may be stored in the disk cache, however, if you choose to view them, just like images in a web page are stored in a disk cache in a browser. You can clear the disk cache as well, if you like, in options, advanced, network and disk space.

I appreciate your pursuing this with me. I don't know if this is the best forum to be using for the part of the subject which relates to the overall design goals for TB. There's clearly something to what you are saying. Perhaps "separate" is the wrong word. The attachments must at least be "distinguishable". I have a really hard time with the idea that the email client software is downloading any attachment before I've asked it to. I maintain this is a real issue. Surely it must be possible to download just the message and stop there - regardless of whether the attachment is truly at the end (normal location as you say) or not. This reminds me of a similar complaint I had about TB with the treatment of "signatures". I have a hard time with the idea that anyone can tell what technique was used to add a "signature" to an email. The result is that I am super careful to never use the signature capabilities of TB. I always manually copy and paste-in that part from a text file - when I need more than just my name. Someone at a high level at Mozilla is making decisions which take the control of these very basic design issues out of my hands, and can tell you I don't like it. And I particularly dislike that these things only come out in the course of discussion of some other issue which at first seems innocuous and isolated. Based on what you told me I have gone back to my email service provider (not AOL actually, even though I'm using an AOL account for this forum) and complained about the wrong reporting of file size information on their servers. My guess - but it's only a guess - is that they're using some form of compression algorithms for attachments, most likely different ones for different recognizable types of files. When it comes time to report the file size they possibly haven't paid enough attention to that detail and they perhaps report the compressed size instead of the uncompressed size.

In response to the email received 2012-09-01 (request for test-case pdf) I went back in my INBOX and tried again opening the same series of pdf attachments which had given a problem on 2012-07-13 (see my comment 20 above). This time I experienced no problem with them. I also saved one of them on 2012-09-02 and used the Notepad comparison procedure in comment 20 to compare it with the version of the same file downloaded on 2012-07-13. The 2012-09-02 file is complete (contains an END OF FILE marker) and its size as revealed by "properties" now matches the size stated in the email to which it was attached (926 KB in this case). Also the Notepad comparison method reveals that both the beginning and the end of the file saved 2012-09-02 precisely match the version downloaded using the web-based mail server instead of TB. The version of TB I am currently using is 15.0.

Created attachment 675311 [details] Testcase1.eml (malformed content-type:pdf;) (In reply to Wayne Mery (:wsmwk) from comment #31) > Peter, Thomas, (or anyone else who sees the issue) > can you supply a testcase message and attach to bug please (as a file)? > ref: comment 18 Here's a reduced testcase derived from my original testcases mentioned in comment 8, comment 11 (based on which this was confirmed). With more knowledge about multipart msgs, I now found that the failure of testcase 1 is due to malformed content type. Testcase 1 (fails on TB16.0.1/WinXP) with malformed > content-type: pdf; That's exactly what David :Bienvenu talked about in comment 19, and I suspect it's a kinda frequent malformedness, so we should be more tolerant when receiving. Double-clicking on attached test.pdf does nothing, although the file itself is perfectly ok and can be opened after saving manually. Doing nothing without complaining is wrong. Imo TB should derive the correct content-type from the file extension (.pdf), especially for the frequent and unambiguous case of pdf. Do we have a bug for that?

Who needs Hollywood when you have NASA?
The latest video from the space agency's Dawn mission to explore the asteroid belt depicts the mineral colors of Vesta.
"These infrared and visible light images have been combined and represented in colors that highlight the nature of the minerals on Vesta's surface. Green shows the amount of iron. Scientists have not yet determined the composition indicated by the other colors," says a NASA statement.
The 320-mile-wide asteroid is considered a "proto-planet", the early core of a world that never quite made it.

Car dealer gave woman refund...in pennies
(NEWSER) – A Florida car dealer ordered to give a refund to a customer whose car had transmission problems grudgingly coughed up—by emptying his penny jars.
A 23-year-old international college student says the DMV told Holiday Motors to give her a $400 refund after she was charged for labor costs not mentioned in the warranty, reports First Coast News.
But when she went to pick it up, "there were some $1 bills but mostly pennies, like two full bags."

A bunch of new on-set photos from 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' has unearthed that the Long Beach area has been turned to be a Chinese city with Optimus Prime riding one of the streets.
After the on-set photos of badly burned Shia LaBeouf were outed few days back, a slew of other on-set images from the filming location of "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" is also coming out. Exposing the sequel's set in Long Beach area as well as the shooting in progress, the images showcase how the streets have been transformed into a fictional Chinese city.
The pictures also display the spotting of Optimus Prime at the Queensway Bridge and of other concept cars in the area for the possibly two days shooting from August 26 to 27. The newly-revealed photos which allegedly were taken on Wednesday, August 26, can be obtained from Transformers Movie Chronicles as well as from mylordsinuhe and djlakitu.
Some speculated that the Long Beach's filming may be the continuation of the scenes shot at the Steel Factory in Bethlehem, Philadelphia back in June. Aside from the photos outed, Transformers Movie Chronicles also revealed that the Long Beach shooting involved numerous car stunts and explosions, which may have some connection to LaBeouf's fake injury.
On what happen on the set, Chronicles' scooper Ranger565 reported, "Well I work in the area and they have the whole area set up to be China, as you guys know. Now I did see Prime, Bumblebee, the silver corvette, 2 blue cars (small) and Ironhide. All were parked on the back lot behind Catalina Landing! The scene I witnessed was a traffic scene where they were driving down Shoreline Drive and then 2 flatbed Trucks merge into traffic. THEN BOOOM!!! One of the two trucks blew in half."
A sequel to the hit 2007 film "Transformers" about two clashing robot clans on Earth, "Revenge of the Fallen" is directed by Michael Bay and will see LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson and John Turturro reprising their roles once again. This time, the heroes will be facing a stronger and more powerful villain, the Fallen, who forces them to bring back their foe Megatron to defeat him. It is due for June 26, 2009 release.

U.S. Geological
Survey Fact Sheet 069-01
Online version 1.0
Southern California GPS Network Advances
the Study of Earthquakes
Ken Hudnut and Nancy King
Southern California is a giant jigsaw puzzle, and scientists are now using GPS satellites to track the pieces. These puzzle pieces are continuously moving, slowly straining the faults in between. That strain is then eventually released in earthquakes. The innovative Southern California Integrated GPS Network (SCIGN) tracks the motions of these pieces over most of southern California with unprecedented precision. This new network greatly improves the ability to assess seismic hazards and quickly measure the larger displacements that occur during and immediatelyafter earthquakes.

It allowed the visiting Crimson and Cream clad to escape after surrendering a ridiculous 778 yards of total offense, including 344 on the ground and 572 all-purpose yards to Tavon Austin.
And OU even came out on top despite squandering a double-digit lead in the second half.
The Sooners led 38-24 after Jones' second of four touchdown passes to Stills at the 11:54 mark of the third quarter, but West Virginia rattled off 19 unanswered points, including a 4-yard touchdown by Austin and a pair of touchdown passes from Geno Smith to star wide out Stedman Bailey, from four and eight yards, respectively.
That made it 43-38 with 7:12 remaining before the teams rode the seesaw down the stretch in what became an epic finish.
Jones connected with Stills for a 7-yard touchdown hookup with 4:10 left to give OU a 44-43 lead, but the Mountaineers quickly responded over the next 1:17 and seized the lead back with Bailey's fourth and final touchdown, a 40-yarder from Smith inside of three minutes.
That set the stage for the late heroics and, as part of that, gave OU life in the Big 12 race following Kansas State's 52-24 loss at Baylor.
The Sooners got on the board early and often, starting with an 11-play, 70-yard drive capped off by a 4-yard touchdown toss from Jones to fullback Trey Millard that made it 7-0.
Place kicker Michael Hunnicutt made it 10-0 with his 32-yard field goal later in the first quarter.
But that's when the West Virginia offense came to life.
Ten unanswered Mountaineers points knotted it up, first on a 19-yard field goal by place kicker Tyler Bitancurt, then a 1-yard touchdown run by running back Andrew Buie.
OU seemed to be taking control from that point.
Jones quickly connected for a 76-yard touchdown pass to elusive slot receiver Jalen Saunders and a 4-yard touchdown hookup with Stills moments later.
OU then led 24-10.
West Virginia came back with a score, as Smith hit Bailey for a 33-yard touchdown pass.
Still, the Sooners seemed to be completely in the driver's seat when running back Damien Williams busted loose 48 yards to the house and gave OU a 31-17 advantage.
Hunnicutt had a chance to put the Sooners up 17 at the break but pushed the field goal wide right.
The Mountaineers came out of the second half gates with the first score when Austin sprinted 74 yards to pay dirt.
Jones, who moved into fifth in NCAA history and second in all-time in the Big 12 with his 14,978 yards, tied a program record with his six touchdown passes while going 38-for-51 for 554 yards, despite throwing an interception.
Stills was one of a pair of receivers with four touchdown catches, as he hauled in 10 receptions for 91 yards.
Saunders had 123 yards and a touchdown on seven catches, while wide receiver Justin Brown finished with six receptions and 112 yards.
Williams, who recorded the one touchdown, rushed 22 times for 92 yards.
For West Virginia, Smith finished 20-of-35 for 320 yards and four touchdowns, but he threw a pair of picks.
Bailey amassed 205 receiving yards on 13 catches in becoming the second player to finish with four touchdown grabs.
In leading the Mountaineer rushing attack, Austin averaged an incredible 16.4 yards per carry.
The Sooners will move on to host the Oklahoma State Cowboys at 2:30 p.m. Saturday in a Bedlam game that now looms very large.
A Kansas State loss to Texas and a pair of Sooner victories down the stretch would give OU the Big 12 Championship and automatic BCS bid.

As they were going up the hill to the town, they met some girls coming out to draw water, and they asked them, "Is the seer here?"
1 There was a Benjamite, a man of standing, whose name was Kish son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Becorath, the son of Aphiah of Benjamin.
2 He had a son named Saul, an impressive young man without equal among the Israelites-a head taller than any of the others.
4 So he passed through the hill country of Ephraim and through the area around Shalisha, but they did not find them. They went on into the district of Shaalim, but the donkeys were not there. Then he passed through the territory of Benjamin, but they did not find them.
7 Saul said to his servant, "If we go, what can we give the man? The food in our sacks is gone. We have no gift to take to the man of God. What do we have?"
8 The servant answered him again. "Look," he said, "I have a quarter of a shekel of silver. I will give it to the man of God so that he will tell us what way to take."
9 (Formerly in Israel, if a man went to inquire of God, he would say, "Come, let us go to the seer," because the prophet of today used to be called a seer.)
11 As they were going up the hill to the town, they met some girls coming out to draw water, and they asked them, "Is the seer here?"
13 As soon as you enter the town, you will find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. The people will not begin eating until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice; afterward, those who are invited will eat. Go up now; you should find him about this time."
14 They went up to the town, and as they were entering it, there was Samuel, coming toward them on his way up to the high place.
15 Now the day before Saul came, the LORD had revealed this to Samuel:
16 "About this time tomorrow I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin. Anoint him leader over my people Israel; he will deliver my people from the hand of the Philistines. I have looked upon my people, for their cry has reached me."
17 When Samuel caught sight of Saul, the LORD said to him, "This is the man I spoke to you about; he will govern my people."
19 "I am the seer," Samuel replied. "Go up ahead of me to the high place, for today you are to eat with me, and in the morning I will let you go and will tell you all that is in your heart.
21 Saul answered, "But am I not a Benjamite, from the smallest tribe of Israel, and is not my clan the least of all the clans of the tribe of Benjamin? Why do you say such a thing to me?"
22 Then Samuel brought Saul and his servant into the hall and seated them at the head of those who were invited-about thirty in number.
23 Samuel said to the cook, "Bring the piece of meat I gave you, the one I told you to lay aside."
25 After they came down from the high place to the town, Samuel talked with Saul on the roof of his house.
26 They rose about daybreak and Samuel called to Saul on the roof, "Get ready, and I will send you on your way." When Saul got ready, he and Samuel went outside together.
27 As they were going down to the edge of the town, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to go on ahead of us"-and the servant did so-"but you stay here awhile, so that I may give you a message from God."

OVER HALF of all serious disease in the U.S. could be prevented with healthier lifestyles. By following these nine lifestyle recommendations, you can lower your risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, and diabetes. Before you know it, you'll also have more energy and get a boost to your mood.
So take control of your health, and encourage your family to do the same. Choose one or two behaviors to start with. Once you've got those down, move on to the others.
Few things are as good for you as regular physical activity. While it can be hard to find the time, it's important to fit in at least 30 minutes of activity every day. More is even better, but any amount is better than none.
Choose activities you enjoy. Many things count as exercise, like walking, gardening, and dancing.
Make exercise a habit by setting aside the same time for it each day--try going to the gym each day at lunchtime or taking a walk regularly after dinner.
Stay motivated by exercising with someone.
For parents and grandparents
Play active games with your kids regularly, and go on family walks and bike rides when the weather allows.
Encourage children to play outside (when it's safe) and to take part in organized activities, like soccer, gymnastics, and dancing.
Walk with your kids to school in the morning. It's great exercise for everyone.

I would like to make wooden trains as holiday gifts. My woodworking skills are limited and I can't figure out how I can make the cow catcher for the front on the train engine as I envision it being two 30 degree angles coming into a point. I plan the make the cow catcher out of a piece of 1x3 lumber which is 6 inches in length. I'm using this piece as the base of the engine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
One way to mimic a cow catcher would be to cut two compound angles on the front edge of your 1x3. A table saw or compound miter saw could do these cuts. If you do not have those tools, you could just mark out the angles, both in plain view on the top of the board and in side view on the board's edge and use a hand plane or a disc/belt sander to remove the material.
You could simplify the cowcatcher to just the two straight angle cuts on the end of the board. Once you have the end "pointy", you could bevel the edges along the top edge of both sides of the angle cuts to give some definition. Just draw out pencil lines to work towards to get the triangle looking balanced.
The picture to the right shows a somewhat different style but looks like it could be done on the end of a 1x3. You could first plane the angle on the top and then cut the two sides (a lot of work removing material which some gets cut away) or you could cut the two side angles and then plane or cut with a saw, the sloping angle on the top side of the piece.
Have fun, but always be safe around power tools when holding and cutting small pieces.

Cameron Diaz Gets Her Star
Ever get the urge to walk all over Cameron Diaz?
Well, from this day forward, if you happen to be in Hollywood, you can have your chance.
The There's Something About Mary actress got her very own star on the Walk of Fame on Monday, receiving the honor during a ceremony in front of the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood.
In attendance to see Diaz, 36, get her star were Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, as well as Diaz's Charlie's Angels co-star Lucy Liu.

It is widely known that Kate Middleton has no intention of posing for magazines. So how did she end up in some garishly printed ensemble, beaming from the cover of, wait for it, Marie Claire South Africa?
Five illustrators digitally attached her head to a model's body and voilà, the Duchess of Cambridge appears to be posing in various dresses by local designers (let's just ignore the fact the styles seem in no way suited to her).
It was a sneaky move, but arguably also strategic and original. Kate is among the most followed women in the world and the equivalent of the Holy Grail for women's magazines.
While she clearly did not agree to the shoot, Marie Claire South Africa used the bold headline: Fashion's New Royal Icon Wears SA's Best Local Designers … followed by a caveat in small print: "Of course she doesn't. But she should."
So far, reactions have ranged from fashion blog Styleite parsing all the unnatural elements to The Daily Telegraph's Belinda White pointing out that Grazia UK trimmed inches off the Duchess's waist shortly after her wedding.
Yesterday, the magazine's website addressed the fake cover coup in a statement it is calling the Great Kate Debate. (A bit self-aggrandizing, no?) Editor Aspasia Karras defends the photographs as a nod to the "the classic fashion magazine covers of the '40s, '50s and '60s where illustrations were used to pay creative tribute to icons of the day."
Okay, fair enough, but in the age of Photoshop, it becomes harder and harder to distinguish real from manipulated.
There's no doubt that the cover image looks a little off, particularly toward the thick neck – no match for Kate's delicate face.
The bigger issue is how the magazine is capitalizing on the attention, going so far as to encourage a discussion on Twitter using the hashtag #mckate. A quick Twitter search revealed that the majority of the tweets using this hashtag were from Ms. Karras or the magazine.
And the South African designers whose clothes have been featured aren't really benefiting from the chatter the same way they would when the real Duchess wears a designer (just ask the Canadian duo behind the label Smythe or British-based Canadian Erdem Moralioglu). Clive Rundle, whose dress was selected for the cover shot, is unlikely to experience an uptick in orders.
Marie Claire South Africa, meanwhile, seems overjoyed by the stunt, ahem, "tribute."

In Paris's historic Jewish quarter, Aimée finds a dead woman carved with a swastika, plunging her into a web of ancient secrets and buried war crimes.
Tension runs high as a hunger strik escalates among Algerian immigrants and Aimée barely escapes a car bombing in this tale of terrorism and greed.
When a mysterious visitor promises contact with her long-lost mother, Aimée finds herself hot on the trail of the Seventies radicals.
Aimée is attacked in the shadowy Passage Boule Blanche. Regaining conciousness, she finds herself temporarily blinded, but is determined to identify her attacker.
An act of kindness ends in a stranger's death, leaving Aimée with a bullet wound, a check for 50,000 francs, and a trove of Vietnamese jade artifacts whose provenance is a mystery.
In an attempt to clear a friend's name, Aimée encounters Corsican seperatist terrorists, Montmartre prostitutes, and learns of the French "ear in the sky."
Aimée tries to identify the mother of a missing child while two murders and an abortive bombing led by environmental protesters propel her into danger.
Finding out who cut her lover's throat involves Aimée in Kurdish and Turkish politics as she tries to track down his contacts above and beneath the streets of Paris.
Aimée, a virtual orphan, embraces a Haitian woman claiming to be her sister, involving her in murky Haitian politics, which leads to murder in the old university district of Paris.
René Fraint, Aimée's partner in Leduc Detective, is wounded and eye-witnesses have pegged her as the culprit. It seems that someone is impersonating Aimée, someone who wants revenge. But, for what?
In one of Paris's wealthiest neighborhoods, a murder investigation leads Aimée to police corruption; the radical Basque terrorist group, ETA; and a kidnapped Spanish princess.
A missing young woman, an illegal immigrant raid in progress, botched affairs of the heart, dirty policemen, the French secret service, cutting-edge science secrets, and a murderer on the loose - What has Aimée gotten herself into?
When Aimée's long-term partner and best friend Rene leaves their detective agency for a new job in Silicon Valley, Aimée knows she can handle the extra workload. At least, that what she tells herself. Repeatedly. But all bets are off when Yuri Volodya, a mysterious old Russian man, hires Aimée to protect a painting. But by the time she gets to his Montparnasse atelier, the precious painting has already been stolen, leaving Aimée smelling a rat. The next day, Yuri is found tortured to death in his kitchen. To top it all off, it looks like Aimée isn't the only one looking for the painting. Some very dangerous people are threatening her and her coworkers, and witnesses are dropping like flies. Now Aimee has to find the painting, stop her attackers, and figure out what her long-missing mother, who is on Interpol's most wanted list, has to do with all this—fingers crossed she wasn't Yuri's murderer, despite clues pointing in that direction.

TOP STORY >> City will get new eateries
Leader staff writer
Three restaurants are in various stages of announcing plans to build in Jacksonville. They include Cicis Pizza, Popeyes Chicken and a Mexican chain restaurant.
Cicis will anchor a 30,000-square-foot commercial strip center going in just north of New China on land between Marshall Road and John Harden Drive.
The developer received two major approvals at a special board of adjustment and planning commission meetings Monday night.
This is an important development for the economic growth of this town, said Tommy Bond, president of Bond Consulting Engineers and representing the developer.
We still have a few issues to work out with the hospital board, he told planning commissioners, but that doesnt affect what we are trying to do here tonight.
The commission gave approval to the final plat of Haskins Com-mercial Addition, which includes the land left over from the building of the New China restaurant at the corner of Marshall and Main, along with one lot of the Rebsamen Medical Subdivision, owned by Rebsamen Medical Center.
Also, the Board of Adjustments gave a variance to the developer to allow 25-foot setbacks across the combined lots. Current zoning rules have 25-foot setbacks on one of the lots and 50 feet on the other. The developer just wont be able to get his buildings in with a 50-foot setback, Bond said.
The developer is also in negotiations to buy a second lot from the hospital to enlarge his retail plans by 10,000 square feet.
Current plans call for at least two retail buildings with more than 30,000 square feet and close to 200 parking spaces. Cicis and at least one other national outlet are set to be in the retail center, according to Bond.
The deal will go before the city council the first week of May for final approval.
After more than a year of working out details, Popeyes Chicken is slated to take over the vacant Burger King restaurant on Main Street near Jacksonville Middle School. Work should begin in early summer.
Finally, a development group recently purchased the vacant Shoneys building on John Harden Drive for $385,000 and has plans to bring in a Mexican chain restaurant. It is unclear at this time if that restaurant will seek a private club permit like Chilis Bar and Grill did to serve alcohol.
The purchasing group was Jacksonville BV LLC, led by Gus Blass III. They bought the property from Shoneys Jacksonville Arkan-sas General Partnership, led by Robert Vogel.
Joe Croce opened the first Cicis Pizza restaurant in Plano, Texas, in 1985. Cicis locations offer an all-you-can-eat buffet stocked with pizza, pasta, salads and desserts.
The company, which began franchising in 1987, has more than 550 restaurants in 26 states, mostly in the southern United States.
It has average unit sales of almost $943,000.
Popeyes is currently opening about 200 new restaurants a year.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Al Bustan Centre and Residence, the popular hotel apartment among visiting tourists and businessmen in the heart of Dubai, announces that the property is making environmental improvements to cater to the demands of environmentally conscious travellers, as it celebrates its 15th anniversary.
The property, established in 1997, will invest in several energy manage ment programs and change their practices to protect the environment as well as to bring in new opportunities for revenue increases.
Moussa El Hayek, Chief Operating Officer of Al Bustan Centre & Residence said: "The travelling guests are increasingly interested in patronising hotels that invest in environmentally friendly buildings, equipment, processes and techniques. Although we have some energy conservation programs in place, we want to further increase the awareness and create programs that will reduce our costs and increase revenue. As we celebrate our 15th anniversary, we want to prioritise this initiative and comply with the requirement of Green Hotel concept!"
Some of the initiatives already undertaken by the hotel are the use of LED lights, compact fluorescent lamps, eco-friendly fiber pillows, linens and towels. The property is also planning to replace the chillers and controls in the hotel rooms and apartments and facilitate the Reuse, Reduce and Recycle program.
El Hayek added: "We want to continue to improve the quality of hotel service to increase guest satisfaction which is one of the factors behind our success. Al Bustan Centre & Residence appeals to both business and leisure travellers coming from different market segments. The hotel's positioning as a family-oriented accommodation helped us overcome the difficulties during the economic downturn and helped us exceed our targets during the booming years."
Aside from its environmental plans, the property is also very active in supporting activities sponsored by the Dubai government such as the seminar on the Conservation of Water, Promoting Plantation, Energy Saving, Awareness on Contagious Diseases and Aid Prevention. The property also participated in the Anti-Smoking Drive, Clean-Up Drive and Earth Hour.
The year 2012 looks very promising for the hotel apartment after recording almost full occupancy during the first quarter. Expectations are high in the coming months and the team is looking forward to exceed last year's performance.
Al Bustan Centre & Residence will continue to improve its facilities to appeal to business travelers and at the same time, attract and penetrate new markets. It has recently added seven meeting rooms to its current portfolio to attract the MICE market and plans to add more facilities in the coming years.

Nicely decorated rooms, excellent restaurant
Friendly staff, very good breakfast, proximity to Ulm
We were with three persons (one child of 16) and we had a large and confortable room. the hotel itself but also the location were pleasant quiet. n.a.
Large, comfortable room. Position: 10 minutes railway to Ulm
The appartment was clean and moderate luxuary, the breakfast was enjoyable with adequeate choices of bread and cereals.
Quiet town that could easily be explored on foot. Good shopping facilities with large shopping complex within a 10 minute car trip. No laundry facilities.
The staff was very nice and the childen room(3 childrem) was very large .Good breakfast. There was bad smell in the elevator, and alot of noice from outside so we had to close the windows.
Rooms were nice and quiet. Restaurant food was awesome and the service was great.
Good food, nice staff, very nice value for money
Good service, nice room!
big room
quiet place, natural surroundings, fine restaurant
the dinner in the garden was a pleasant expirience and the spacious room was realy a surprise
Friendly staff and comfortable room, really enjoyed the evening meal we had.
A bit overpriced given its location away from city center
The entire staff was very friendly. The hotel was exceptionaly clean. The restaurant was very good. It's located in a lovely little town. We liked everything.
The facilities in the hotel were excellent and the location was perfect.
The room was a good size,clean and in a good state of repair The staff were efficient and helpful. Themeals were good.
The Maritim chain is well established, and its hotels follow the same general rule: big rooms, nice bathrooms, wonderful breakfast offering. Expensive!!!!
Confortable and well located in the centre of Ulm. Excellent breakfast.
Excellent hotel, staff very helpful, spotlessly clean and great service. I would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Ulm. It is an easy walk down the river to the town centre and the Christmas market is not to be missed!
everything about the hotel and area car park fee
Location Lack of proper ventilation/aircondition
Location; Helpful staff
The bar had atmosphere with very pleasant staff and it was comfortable. The Staff at the main desk were very polite and helpful. The only restaurant open for dinner produced poor food and very moderate service. The bathrooms were very short of extras such as shampoos, cotton wool etc.
service, room size expensive parking, breakfast (in addition to rather high priced lodging), no coffee machine or similar in the room, no free internet (a must for business travelers that do not care of sharing credit card details on line for this and prefer a simple expense note, "all included in the hotel invoice")
I could enjoy staying this hotel because the hotel staff was so helpful, breakfast is tasty and the location is convenient to go to central area in Ulm...
nice large room, nice area of town near the main square
Staff and location and facilities Room not air conditioned so very hot at night and as room was at front of hotel too noisy with windows open
Friendliness and helpfulness of staff
Central location in the city To warm in the room
Super location, 5 Min walk to city centre, easy to reach and car park under the hotel. Great breakfast and clean, comfy and spacey rooms with impeccable bathroom. Affordable no-nonsense hotel, great for business trips and short stay-overs. Booked a 2 person room early and was lodged in one of the duplex apartments.
Exellent location in the middle of town Lack of air-condition , it was +35 degees in Ulm last week
Design of the rooms and hotel: everything you need is available and no more than that. My room was on the side of the inside garden with a small plateau; very nice.
Near the sights and with a good breakfast. Has a lift.
It was a lovely place to stay, with elegant, spotless rooms and linens, great food, and very friendly, helpful staff. It is difficult to get to from Ulm, as the buses run infrequently and not late in the evening at all. There are no other nearby options for meals or activities.
Very friendly staff,excellent large rooms,interesting restaurant with huge (too large!) servings of excellent food
So family friendly! The staff quickly checked us in and the room was a perfect fit for our family of 5. Nice clean room with little treats waiting for the kids. They loved it! The food in the hotel restaurant was excellent! Buffet breakfast was also very nice. Our main purpose for the trip was Legoland and the hotel was about a 15-20 min. drive to the park. As a sidenote: we were fortunate to be in Finnigan as they were holding their town festival (early September). It was a great opportunity to mix with the locals and enjoy their culture and cuisine! We had a great time and can't wait to return!! We would have enjoyed a pool, but really, we had a fabulous time at your hotel!
Staff friendliness, room appearance
-big room, clean, quiet, good breakfast buffet,
This typical Bavarian hotel was a gem of a find! Off the beaten track but well worth the short drive from the main Autobahn to get there. The building is a mix of traditional and modern but retains its charm. We were very impressed when the Manageress offered us an alternative room as there a wedding was due to take place later that evening and the room we had been given was above the function room - would this happen in England?? The new rooms are superbly furnished and the bathroom was very modern. Our 'second room' was in the older part of the hotel but the room was equally as comfortable. We had an excellent evening meal and the breakfast offered a good selection of fruits, meats, cheeses etc. We would definitely go back! Nothing negative!
Location in center of city's shopping area on plaza across from library. Off street parking (at an extra fee). Prison cells are larger than my room: 12 yds. x 5 yds. And that includes the bathroom! At least my room had its own bathroom. Third floor walkup, and the stairs were very steep and narrow. No AC (and I was there in extremely hot weather). Most of the staff were downright surly. Breakfast was adequate but barely.
Nice and friendly hotel. Good that internet access is for free.
The family atmosphere offered by the owners of the hotel and their constant willingness to help the guests, not only in the hotel but in all of the city of ulm. In addition to their excellent cuisine. Gasthof Lowen is definitely the place you should stay at, if you are going to ulm.
Friendly and welcoming staff, nothing was too much trouble. Entire hotel was beautifully styled and sparkling clean. We will visit again.
No good Internet connection
very good facility. Friendly staff. Breakfast excellent.Room superb. No.
It was just fantastic. The location was good, the food was exceptionally good and the staff was so friendly and welcoming. I would always recommend the hotel to friends, family or business partners and will definitely stay there again in the future.
Very nice, recently renovated small hotel in a quiet suburb. Nothing too luxurious or grande, but well worth the money. The two rooms they provided us for the family made up a really spacious area, like a flat without a kitchen. The parking area was very convenient, and the breakfast very good. No particular problems. If the twin family rooms could be offered at a slightly better price, this would be maybe the best choice for a four membered family visiting Legoland (about 25 kms away).
Very nice hotel. Good furniture, good bed, very clean room.
Nice room, very comfortable bed, helpful staff bathroom was tight; breakfast variety very limited
Everything is really nice. Th elittle bit disadvantage is the nose from street like motorcycle.
Pleasant outdoor seating. Good food. More of a business man's hotel I felt. Language problems meant that staff were scared and left me unserved. Only one member of staff served me who was sometimes very busy. Noisier than anticipated for a Silence Hotel
Excellent room and English speaking staff. Great restaurant. Fine breakfast. The only hotel on our trip which lost our Active Hotels reservation (but they were able to accommodate us anyway).
The silence during the night and the also the location is very beautiful.
Nice room, good restaurant, perfect breakfast, free wireless internet, kind personnel.
Very nice and very friendly and helpful staff.
The service was excellent an the restaurant was very good. We enjoyed our stay. The food was very good, the room was spacious and comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. We enjoyed watching the sun set over the fields of green and waking up to views of the country side. The massage service was also very good. I really liked the hotel and service except for two details. First, the internet service was advertised as hotel-wide but we found the signal to be spotty unless we took the computer out to the hallway or downstairs which was annoying. I believe they gave us a discount on the internet fee we paid because we complained. The other trouble was that the room was extremely hot at night because the whether was unusually warm. I think they should consider putting screens in the windows so they could be open in the evenings allowing the cool air to enter the rooms while preventing mosquitoes from entering as well. I didn't sleep well during my stay because the room was too hot.
Good bed. Nice bathroom. Very nice breakfast buffet. 3 € Internet is too much!!!
The hotel was located in a very quiet position but anyway it was very close to the city of Ulm and 25 minute far from Legoland, the main reason of our visit. The room was clean and the breakfast adequate. Some of the rooms (including the one assigned to us) were still to be renewed and not corresponding to the pictures shown on the web-site (however, in our opinion not a 4 star). The restaurant was quite expensive considering the quality of food. We weren't able to get a portion of fried potato for our child, even if included in the menu.
Very efficient, clean and comfortable
Fitness/Gym, View out of the room, excellent cake's
I like the decoration. The floor is not so clean, something left on it but the stuff even don't notice that.
modernity of the hotel
New furnishings, tasteful decór, nice outdoor garden with a lake, free parking Weak air-conditioning, slow and cumbersome internet access, no bell-boy, transparent bathroom gives everyone a full view of your activities there...
New modern design
6.30Am breakfast every day including Sunday, our event had an 8am start daily. Staff unobtrusive but attentive at the same time. Most staff spoke English. Relaxed atmosphere, very clean and tidy at all times Address of hotel confusing as main entrance was in a different road. No restaurant on Saturday or Sunday means a long trip to find food. A little expensive for this class of hotel.
clean hotel, staff friendly. Hotel is too far out of Ulm but great for a one night stop. Biker friendly.
Nice hotel, very good restaurant, good bed Very hot in the room, 24gr+, And it is not summer yet! No airco in the room.
Rooms were clean, good decor, flat screen TV, decent breakfast, good parking facilities
quiet,free parking,easy to reach,breakfast
quiet area internet very expensive and poor quality
Quite one day, no housekeeping done for the room
Breakfast none
Convenience The room was clean, well appointed, the linen was fresh but I noticed a rancid smell from the covers. Apparently they had not been changed recently.
Ideal stopping over place for British people travelling south to the alps and beyond. The view of Ulm was lovely. Ask for a window facing the river. Ulm had some great eating places overlooking the river. The hotel is 2 minutes from the main road. The family package with adjoining rooms for the older children was excellent value at 99 euros. The room was very clean, the staff were excellent and spoken excellent english. The hotel quickly accomodated my allegy to feather pillows and provided alternative bedding in minutes...well done to all. parking at 9 euros !
Very good hotel, nice big rooms. We really enjoy the stay. Everything like it should be in a hotel with 4 stars. It is close to the city center, so you can walk to the Ulm Minster. We didn't eat breakfast, because the price is 17€ for breakfast per person.
the location, near the historical centre of Ulm that the restaurant was not avalaible thursday night september 6; the nearby railway bridge with trains passing
Nice location in the middele of the city. Beautiful view from on the river from some rooms and from the restaurant. Adjectant/neighbouring rooms booked, but only recieved after explicit asking to reception. Although a lot of rooms have connecting doors to neighbouring room, none seem to be available although hotel was not fully booked ... bad room reservation system?
Staff very welcoming. Location by Danube was stunning. Overall a good hotel. Incredible value for money 99 euros for 2 interconnecting rooms for the family.
i onli dit stay 1 night no
Just a very good location for a staying a night on the way to skiing in Austria.
Location on Donau (Danube) is very romantic and allows walking to the Fisher Quarter across the river and the view of the Munster was excellent. This was our fourth stay.
The budget family deal (109 Euros for neighbouring rooms) is great value. Restaurant buffet is excellent and location great to walk into the city. Would have been nice to have tea/coffee making facilities in the rooms.
location right on the Danube. Good car park. Excellent breakfast. absence of air conditioning
Very well located but hard to find. The restaurant staff was very helpful and friendly. Reception staff could be friendlier. Carpets in the room were soiled.
The room is large. The location is convenient.
Great location, waking distance to everyting in Ulm, and they have bikes if you don't like walking too far.
Good restaurant, central location. No armchairs in the room, the double bed is made of 2 single beds, little variety for breakfast.
The pool. The staff were aloof.
Staff & Food in Reasturant. Location.Free Wi Fi & it worked parking on site E5 per day No Staff at Reception not helpfull when they were!
spacious, very clean room, as described; excellent location - central, but quiet; obliging staff
Staff very friendly and close to train station buffet breakfast was ok especially compared to other European hotel breakfast
Restaurant is exellent. The bells in church was very onerous (7.30 on Sunday)
everythig all right mattres (badly uncomfortable)
Very convenient location close to autobahns A7 and A8. Excellent soundproofing!!
The location just of the Autobahn was very useful Could do with a serious refurbishment, very 70's
Convenient location for motorway. Comfortable spacious room. Good restaurant and breakfast facilities. Excellent value for money.
it was a short stop over and what we expected
Excellent restaurant; clean rooms; helpful staff
Very close to highway, quick check in, honest food and all that for a reasonable price
Good location for quick overnight stop. Located next to motorway service area.
It is a classic but well kept building, with all the comfort that it is needed. The buffet breakfast is very good, and the desk personnel is very helpful and speaks perfect English. It even has a BurgerKing in the same plaza.
Good location, free parking and breakfast. Great value for money. Nothing apart from one of the worst hotel pillows I have encountered.
The ease with which the hotel could be accessed from the motorway I did not like the way erotic television pictures can be accessed accidentally without previous payment for such services
The staff after the first day was nice and able to communicate in English. If you have forgotten to take an ethernet cable with you, they will provide one. The arrival was disastrous. Arriving on Sunday 20:00, there was no staff at the hotel at all available for check-in, even though booking.com printout promised check-in from 16:00 till 21:00. There was a handwritten phone number posted on the door, but my phone did not work in Germany, and few locals that I met said the number is incorrect. After half an hour somebody finally arrived, but they did not speak English. With kind assistance of other guests I was finally able to get into my room shortly before 21:00 - with a busy week starting on Monday that was an extremely bad first impression I got from the hotel. Other guests who had arrived on Saturday said it was the same experience for them.
Nice and clean hotel. Breakfast was good. Free parking.
The staff left the keys for me in a safe since I arrived after 9 pm. But on the others hand this normal service and nothing special. It is cheap.it has a huge parking lot. The room was very small. I was lucky that I did not have lodgage. I had a none smoker room ( with a sign on it). But it smelled like cigarettes as it has been occupied by smokers for ever. It was so bad that my eyes were burning. No personal there or avail be by phone to change the room although they told me that I could reach them by phone. In the lobby there were few truck driver kind of guys drinking beer from vending machine and that area stank like beer too. Bathroom was not realy clean. Next morning when I told the staff about the room, she did not really care.
New hotel so clean and everything works. Staff were very friendly and helpful and help with local restaurant booking. Quite a clinical feel to the hotel, not very homely
Cleanliness of room Never any staff around to answer questions. Reception always closed.
It's nice and clean, has plenty of parking spaces in front of the hotel.
Quick and Simple check-in, decent value I would say. I had to pay for parking.
Room was clean, bed was comfortable, staff was kind and helpfull. Location was good, at the beginning of pedestrian (shopping) area There was a building site next to the hotel and at was noisy during the night (it is temporary).
The location next to the train station was very convenient for us, as was the proximity to the centre of town. The laundry charges seemed quite high.
neat , clean rooms and bathrooms with all the facilities and comfort you need .. very central location , excellent price the view on the trains , but that wasn't important
Within 5 minutes walk of the centre Perhaps too close to the railway
perfect location, just nearby the station; room is nice too
InterCityHotel is very conveniently located close to the railway station and not far from the center of Ulm. The staff is welcoming and nice. The room was small but quite cosy and pleasant to live in. The cleaning was done daily. The windows of my room looked right over the construction site or something like that and therefore it was a bit noisy in the morning. But I suppose it may not be considered as some kind of criteria as it is temporary occurrence. What I did not like was the price for breakfast that is why I had to refuse from this option.
th noise from the hauptbanhoft was very excessive and very loud
Close to everything downtown. Very clean and I could get a smoking room. Room was very comfortable. Train station behind hotel made it very noisy
Breakfast meal was excellent

Leo was born in AD 401, a member of the tribe of the Bessi in Thrace.
At the death of Marcian his son-in-law Anthemius appeared the most likely candidate for the throne.
Leo was to be a harsh persecutor of Christian heretics and the remaining pagans throughout his reign.
Aspar remained the real power within the eastern empire for another six or seven years. However, during this time Leo was not entirely his puppet. Most notably was Leo's intent on self-determination more clear as in his recruitment of a large number of Isaurians into a newly created imperial guard (excubitores) in AD 461.
After a raid by Geiseric's Vandals on the Peloponnese in Greece in AD 467, Leo came to realize the scale of the threat posed by the barbarians in Carthage and the necessity for joint action by the two empires against them.
Next, in AD 468 Leo sent a large naval exhibition in a combined effort with western forces against the Vandals. The fleet was commanded by Basiliscus, the brother of Leo's wife, Aelia Verina.
Aspar was accused by some of having aided Geiseric by treason, but this is highly unlikely.
Another consequence of Aspar's fall was the rebellion of the Ostrogothic chieftain Theodoric Strabo. Seeing the most powerful figure removed, he recognized Constantinople's moment of weakness. He rampaged through the Balkans, devastating the cities of Philippopolis (Plovdiv) and Arcadiopolis (Lüleburgaz), until Leo relented, recognized him as king and agreed to pay him an annual subsidy, on condition that he and his Goths would hence fight for the empire. Theodoric Strabo was also granted the post of 'Master of Soldiers', although it was no longer to be the position of the power, men like Zeno and Aspar had wielded when holding it. For Leo was determined to see an end to the German domination of his empire, and hence looked to the Isaurians to act as the eastern power base.
In October AD 473 Leo I raised his grandson, a boy born to Zeno and his daughter Ariadne, to the rank of Augustus as Leo II.
Shortly after this, Leo became very ill and died on the 18 January AD 474.

U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell issued the following statement Friday after the Senate Majority Leader agreed to his request to set aside the PIPA legislation pending resolution of "the serious issues' with the legislation:
"We all agree that we must do more to combat the on-line theft of intellectual property, but I was encouraged to see the Democrat majority agree with our call to set aside the PIPA bill, a proposal that raised serious legal, policy and operational concerns. The Majority Leader's decision to set aside the bill will give Congress the opportunity to study and resolve the serious issues with this legislation and prevent a counterproductive rush toward flawed legislation. The Senate Majority made the right decision to reconsider fast-tracking this bill next week."
