The hotel was extremely clean and comfortable: bathrooms were great, beds comfy. The selection of food for breakfast was superb. Whilst the hotel was very close to the S Bahn station and tram, I felt it wasn't an ideal location to stay on a weekend break as there is not much in the immediate vicinity.
Everything the staff, room comfort and size....
Great modern design. Excellent breakfast buffet. Views from the top floor cafe. They would need elevators in different points so that you don't have to walk such a long distance...
I liked the furniture, the atmosphere, the friendly staff, the room. The lobby is very wide, full of light and space: it makes a very good impression at first sight. Our room was confortable and well equipped. Good connection with the public means of transport. In front of the hotel there are an underground station and a tram station to go to the city center, the Prenzlauer Berg and to the Schoenefeld airport. The breakfast buffet is rich and tasteful. I even received greeting from the staff for my birthday. Everything was ok.
Clean, comfortable, modern hotel with good facilities, staff were very very helpful, breakfast was excellent7 made for a most enjoyable trip. Snack menu was pretty limited in the Sky Cafe & ground floor.
The staff was very helpful in assisting me with directions to different city locals, and with the use of the city transit system.
We loved the colours and design of the hotel! Good service and the staff was very helpful, friendly without overdoing it. The only bad thing was that you had to pay extra for the Wi-Fi! Also, the breakfast was delicious but we wished there were more flakes/musli without excessive sugar in it (only 1 of 6 contained little sugar).
The convenience of the location. All around were great places to eat and see. It made for a great weekend getaway, nothing was wrong.
Everything was basically OK: nice cafe and bars on the 12th & 14th overlooking the East Berlin, very good breakfast buffet. clean and comfortable rooms. No free drinking water in the rooms, which is standard in other hotels of such standard. The wellness center in the hotel was opened from 9 a.m. instead of 7 a.m. as it is stated in the hotel brochure.
The cleanliness of the rooms. spotless. very helpful & friendly staff. great breakfast. Location. I would have preferred to be closer to the main part of prenzlauer berg.
good room sizes, well decorated and appointed, comfortable bed and great bathroom with both shower and bath, quiet but centrally located for Prinzlaursberg where we needed to be. Train station 1 min walk from entrance takes you all round Berlin so great connections. I had smoking room, my son not, but the lifts only operate with the specific room keys so he couldn't come visit me in my room (6th fl he was on 8th) so we always had to meet up on ground for first floor. Otherwise was perfect stay for us.
The staff were very helpful and were always willing to speak English. We had a double / smoking room which was very clean and tidy. Great bathroom and very relaxed. The bar never really seemed to be open. Although we did go over New Years so maybe that was why.
I cannot fault the hotel, it was well located only 5 minutes walk to the S bahn, U bahn and tram which gave us access to the whole city, functional, spotlessly clean and well maintained. Reception staff were very helpful and friendly. Will have no hesitation staying at this hotel next time I visit Berlin. The breakfasts were expensive compared to what we would pay in England. No problem as there is a large shopping mall located 5 minutes away with numerous cafe's, restaurants and bars. No tea or coffee facilities provided in the room.
The wellness area was not in use
The staff were verya helpful aand welcoming.
Nice clean rooms Breakfast price is way too high 15 euro
Attention to the detail.Very clean.Great room.
Easy accesible, value for money
The room was spotlessly clean and the staff were excellent. Easy travelling distance for everything via UBahn & SBahn.
At the moment we arrived, the reservation was unknown!!! We had to book another two rooms!!! Very poor!!
Rooms were clean and tidy. Facilities were good. we booked hotel at a set price but even with the confirmation they charged us 10euros extra for every room and we had 13 rooms. feel staff did not care just wanted extra money and said it was booking.coms fault. As we were in a different country and could contact no one we had no choice but feel we were robbed and this left a sour taste to the whole holiday.
Super nice and helpful staff comfortable beds and awesome linens super close to local transportation twin beds (pushed them together to make a double)
Quit, good confort, facility of parking
The cleanliness and comfort everything was great.
The staff was extremely courteous, helpful and patient. When we had a small complaint about the bathroom supplies, they attended to it immediately. The room seemed to be put into order but not cleaned very well during the stay. Used glasses were not replaced and when we ran out of hotel-supplied liquid shower soap, and left the empty container in the sink, the room cleaners put the empty container back into the dispenser.
The staff was warm and friendly. Access to downtown was quite easy. Breakfast was delicious. Plenty of hot water and heat. Terrific stay.
The room fridge was dirty,and the beds were individual!We were a couple
Location When I arrived they informed that the internet connection was down and they were working on it and were hoping to get it fixed that evening. Yeah right.... the next evening I could finally use it and it was extremely unreliable, which remained so untill the end of my stay. They squarely blaimed their ISP. Actually I don't care who'se fault it is. It is sheer incompetence to not be able to properly fix such a problem for 5 days. Furthermore the beds were ridiculously uncomfortable with pillows that don't even deserve that name. Additionally the breakfast room in the part of the hotel I stayed is a barren sports canteen like room, with the buffet ouside in the hallway.
I only spent one night but the service was fast and excellent.
affordable price, some staff were quite helpful, others had some difficulty with English Location removed from main centers within Berlin. No easy access to cafes/restaurants within the area leaving you no choice than to eat at their restaurant or catch a tram into other parts of Berlin,
Appearance looks higher end and being furbished and maintained by people with and eye for detail. Beds are excellent and if you're at one of the higher floors you have an excellent view over Easter Berlin and it's DDR-architecture. Public transport connections are great both day and night. Shower and bathtub tab was broken. They fixed it super fast. WiFi on the 8th floor was absolutely horrible. The €5 I payed for it were refunded after I complained about it. Bathroom smelled a little funny. One of the drains gave a sewer smell. Breakfast was not included.
Spacious and clean rooms, good tram connection to city center (Alexanderplatz), excellent breakfast We reserved a room with kitchen (Studio), but there was no such rooms. A hotel proposed a free breakfast for 3 persons instead, and it was excellent.
Free parking, nice, big room and good breakfast. The u-bahn is near.
Services and hotel Staf
By public transportation, parking. Rooms were well laid out, very clean Very expensive breakfast.
Quiet location, free parking, very good breakfest
Close proximity to subway, you can reach city center in 15-20 minutes, free parking. I stayed here fourth time and was satisfied. Expensive breakfast.
Excellent value for money. Friendly staff, very good standards. Very good spa facility. Good restaurant and bar
The room on the ground floor was pretty big. Breakfast was delicous. Good price performance ratio. No Internet connection in the part C of the hotel altough ordered by the reservation
It is clean, rooms are big, prices are moderate. Breakfast cost is $10 which is rather expensive for Berlin.
Everything was fine.
I loved the sauna was quiet I did not like that there as no iron in the rooms, the hotel staff did not ask if we had any questions about the city and some staff seemed to be irritated
Cleanliness and comfort of room Not many restaurants to visit nearby
Big, light room, comfortable bed and pillows No refrigerator
I had a complicated reservation for three different periods and the staff made for me connecting booking, that was very convenient very far from any supermarket
It is a good hotel!
Friendly and competent staff, relatively good location and reputation of the hotel, spacious rooms
Clean, good value for money very far away
Very good value for money, excellent room and staff were very friendly. Also liked the Bike Rental place just around the corner, even friendlier! Staff didn't always know what to do re certain things but to be fair think it was one lady's first day so I should leave her alone.
room is big there is no air conditioner in summer season, i hope i want to sleep in good condition.
The service, the food and that we could use free of charge sauna and the fitness hall.
The room was clean and tidy. Possibility to park car next to the hotel. Location was good enough for the price (10 min walk from underground).
It's an excellent price for value hotel. We didn't have breakfast however rooms are very clean and big. It's not so far away from the city. You have to walk 5-10 minutes to the nearest metro station. I totally advice this hotel to everyone. Clean, and very economical. And it has its own free car park. Everything was excellent. There has been noting bad with this hotel.
Staff friendly and knowledgable. Good presentation of the hotel. Very good facilities in terms of the food availalbe and souvenirs to buy in reception. The only bad point is the location. It rained the 4 days we stayed, so we ended up getting taxis up to the Frankfurter alley ubahn. Then we would get a taxi home from there at night because it was a dark and lonely walk even despite the rain.
very nice hotel excellent value for money
The room was clean and comfortable. The bed was comfortable. The staff were very helpful. The hotel was quiet and felt safe. The hotel was in a safe area. The hotel was a bit of a long distance from public transport (U-Bahn). The proposed breakfast price was a bit expensive, however we were travelling on a budget and had booked it room only on a special deal through a website.
Clean, comfortable A bit too far from the closest U-Bahn stop (800 metres).
staff helpful. information in front of bottled water in room said "compliments of Remada" but it then cost 2,50 euros.
Very quiet, comfortable, clean and very kind service and very good prices.. Thanks a lot.. I would prefer it again.. It was about 15 minutes of fast walking from the Underground (metro) station (Magdalenestrasse) without any bus between that distance.. No Wi-Fi (very expensive=no wifi)
The sauna! Bathroom was moldy, housekeeping staff occupied only elevator to the 7th floor.
Friendly, non-stressed and Very helpful staff. My room was very convenient for both work and relax, with its extremely good space!! (Maybe not so lucky next time?..) Quiet and indisturbant location. The drinks made in the hotel bar.. Rather poor ingredients..
Very big rooms, (room 11). Opposite train station, close to shops. had to pay upfront in advance, small rear car park, fee of 5 euros.
Very nice personell, excellent location... Just great
The room was very quiet. Breakfast could be better.
Enjoyed our stay. Really friendly personel. Always a greating when you walk in our out. Ready to answer any questions. Clean nice rooms with enough space. and those showers are nice! Warm and strong after a hard day of work or shoppping ;)
Big room, very close to the station Lichtenberg (50m)
Wide and clean room, the useful location near railroad station. Staffs were friendly.
Nice shower, good isolation, quite room, nice breakfast
friendly staff, clean
The rooms were super, great location just at bit noice from the train. No
Very friendly and helpful staff
Staff where helpful and the hotel was very clean (nice bath rooms). I would like to have been closer to the centre,..... but the hotel was lower on cost due to being a 27 min tram ride from the cemtre. The tram (M6) stop is very close to the hotel.
breakfast was very good. only. little bit far of city centre, but public transport ir good.
The rooms were very comfortable, as the hotel name exactly indicates. I liked the fact that the family room comprised two big rooms each of which had its own television. The breakfast was satisfactory. At reception and in the room there was plenty of information about Berlin and tours. I highly recommend it. The rooms could do with a fridge. Furthermore, it was a bit far from the centre. However, this was no problem once Berlin has an excellent public transport system. A tram station was just about 100 metres far from the hotel and a tram to the center ran approximately every 10 minutes or less. In about 20 minutes you were in the centre.
Room size, free parking Bed size, bath quality, a beat far away city center
Provides all our needs for our annual school trip
clean and excellant value with helpfull staff.
Two rooms in one unit for a family in a reasonable price More genorous with breakfast. Refill courasons (not put only once). Some Vegtables - not many but at least not only fat and carbhydrates
Staff at reception very helpful. Beds comfortable. I would have liked better coffee/snack facilities in evening
It is not to far from the airport and not to far from the center in the city. Conections to airport by train is OK.
Decoration Too noisy! cars and tram make the hotel uncofortable. The security is not good since the door in the back of the hotel is not closed during night while the reception is closed and anyone can have access to the entire hotel through the back. Too far from the city center...
Ambiance Your survey put a qualifier on this section "Do not use this review for complaints." If I say anything I didn't like in this section it maybe misconstrued as a complaint.
we went with two couples and had a double room with a sittingroom in front of them, very nice and quite luxurious. Breakfast was good, rooms were clean and spacious. The hotel is located in a not to charming part of the city, about 10 km's from the citycenter. Hotel is about 300 meters away from the nearest metrostation. Frequent arriving metro's bring you in about 15 minutes to the citycenter. No problems.
Hotel was clean and food was good in restaurant. Easy walk to S-Bahn. Very strange checking in - seemed to be no reception and waitress in restaurant gave us key. Staff gave wrong directions to S-Bahn and didn't speak English. Smelled of smoke on our floor but room was ok. Only got 1 tiny bar of soap first day which ran out and didn't get more.
The location was excellent as it is less than 5 minutes walk from the S Bahn and a further 9 minutes to the airport. There are plenty of shops, market stalls and cafes in the immediate area of Karlshorst. It is possible to be in the city centre within 20 minutes. The hotel staff spoke good English and were very freindly.
Was generally very good Breakfast was expensive
The good outfit of our room and the very clean bath-room. To little possibilities to park in the yard of the hotel; We could not receipt Videotext on the TV-set.
Best price-value ever! The hotel is not extaordinary, but I did't think that one could get such a convenient place in a city for about € 40,-
The breakfast spread was exceptional. Had dinner also at the restaurant and it was very good. My room was clean and the place was quiet, allowing for a good nights sleep. I felt that the 9 Euro ($12 USD) price for breakfast was a bit steep. A cup of coffee and bowl of cereal shouldn't cost that much. Perhaps they could taylor their menu in an a-la-carte fashion.
The hotel was excellent value for money, clean, welcoming and quiet. Chosen due to its proximity to good public transport, a three minute walk from Karlshorst S Bahn and one minute from a tram stop.
The staff are very friendly and helpful and the location is close to public transport. Hot breakfast food would be a good idea, fried eggs, bacon, sausages, etc.
The cleanliness of the room and the relation value for the money The furniture and comfort limited. Near a subway station but away from the city center
Nothing too much trouble for the staff. A good and reasonably priced Greek restaurant on the other side of the development meant that no transport needed in order to have a pleasant evening out. It is possibly not for people who don't want an extra half hour's journey each time from the city centre. At the moment lots of upheaval in Berlin with repair work meant that U-Bahn could not be used all the way to Central Station (Hauptbahnhof). But I found it fine and the situation of the hotel was peaceful which is a big bonus.
Station near (5 min walk). Breakfest ok.
The building was interesting due to the very high ceilings and large window fronts. The staff were very nice and friendly and there was always one member of staff on the premises. The towels and bedlinen were very worn and faded and the matress was too soft for my liking. Also,there were no ameneties such as an alarm clock, safe, minibar, ironing board.
We had a lovely stay, the hotel was basic though functional. For the price paid it was clean,friendly and served our purpose as a base to tour from. would reccommend it to those on a budget.Very accessible by the brilliant public transport system berlin offers. The only thing I felt the hotel lacked was air conditioning,we were there mid July with 32 degree heat. Would have been nice though for the price we paid its maybe but much to expect.
The Hotel staff are well behaved and location was suitable for me. Nothing to complain
the quit location the room for 3 was small
Good service on late arrival
Staff were very helpful and friendly. An excellent hot and cold buffet breakrast.
I booked 2 rooms in this hotel for my family. My wife is disabled, I informed them of this fact, stating that she used and electric wheelchair. The room provided, was almost inaccessible, the toilet in the room was totally inaccessible. SO much so we left the following morning. Do not use this hotel if you have major mobility issues.
I liked the room, breakfast and dinner
Friendly and helpful staff. Charming hotel No tea or coffee making facilities in room.
Very small room, problems with internet connectivity all the time
We chose this hotel because we intended to rent a car, and in that respect it worked out well - there's plenty of parking opposite. Our room was small, with pleasant basic furnishings. It was clean and comfortable, in modern style. The dining facilites are good - nicely decorated, very pleasant and efficient staff, and prices are modest. The food is ok if you look lightly upon the universal German tendency to turn every dish into a pile of sludge (beware Swabian noodles!). Breakfast is ok but at 9 euros, a bit expensive. The hotel publicity implied it was situated in expansive grounds but that's not the case - it's just on a street corner, about 400 metres walk from a park and lake. The locality, five kilometres from the centre, is in forner east Berlin and 21 years later is still somewhat on the seedy side. The bed was not large enough for two (unless jockeys) but there was a tiny cubicle with an extra single bed that solved that problem. There was space only for one suitcase to be opened. There is no laundry service. Internet wireless in the dining room is cheap at 1.50 euro/hour but appallingly slow to the point of often being useless.
Good facilities e.g. en-suite/breakfast/parking/WiFi at a good price for Berlin Some aspects were more pension than hotel e.g. walk up (up to 4 floors) with no lift, room not serviced daily
Perfect Ticked all the boxes for me and will certainly stay there again on future trips to Berlin
I needed somewhere quiet, clean, comfortable, close to public transport and great value for someone on a very tight budget. This place lived up to all my expectations. I'll stay there again for sure.
the bedsheets werent changed
Friendly staff and cleanliness was top-quality, especially for the price. Immediate surroundings are not that great but it is 100m away from the S-Bahn. Excellent choice if you are just looking for somewhere to sleep and have some breakfast.
the smell in the room
Easy transportation to the center, short walk to interesting place: former Stasi prison. Really comfortable, helpful receptionists. Of you want to go to gym, rather find some other then the hotel one.
Bathroom acces not from the room. Quality of room-doors.
The staff were excellent - very helpful and friendly. The resturant was good, plus there were nearby resturants and large shopping centre. I understood from the website that the hotel was not near the city centre but it was not clear just how far away it was. Although it was an easy tram ride for about 1/2 hour to the city with a ticket purchased at reception, my taxi driver from the train station had never heard of it and had to look it up and even then had some difficulty finding it.
Breakfast is realy good. It is a little bit far from the center. It takes 25-30min from Alexander platz.
Some of the hotel staff were very friendly and helpful and some others were completely the opposite.Far from the center, but very close to a tram station,so it was easy to approach the center in 15 minutes.Very quiet place and free parking. The internet provision was expensive for short time use.The bedocovers were a little bit tatty, but still clean. Expensive for what it offers.
excellent restoran menu and service.
good breakfast was served ! some of the hotel staff were not friendly.. they were not ready to explain what we ask them
Free parking It was a little far from the centre.
There is free parking place, staff was very polite and helpful.
i liked the staff alot very nice people an very friendly
Staff very friendly, room clean and comfortable Noisy, with people leaving for work starting before 6 AM
Hotel manager was very helpful. Located in a nice and quite neighborhood. Well connected to city centre. Tram stop is very close to the hotel. Tram service is available for 24 hours
The services was very good!...The breakfast is very nice!! The new guy who is working overthere for round about three months is called for us as Multifuncional, because he is very nice and do a lot of work to make us happy and confortable!.. Check in at 17h00 is a little bit unconfortable!!
Clean, comfort, cheap. Too far from the city, and the toilet sounds annoying (defect?) when people who stay upstairs my ex-room (room 221) used their toilet.
the staff was very helpful they cleaned the floor of our room only once in 9 days
New furniture, very cheap, clean, not to expensive cold beer at reception, lot of natural light, table in room, very polite staff, rich and tasteful breakfast, quiet surrounding Room cleaning once in two days, thin walls (clearly hear the sounds from the next room and toilet), stucked toilet door, distance from downtown (not exactly public transport friendly location), breakfast only until 9am on working days, soft bed, pillow really bad
for a double room and breakfast in the suburbs of a major european capital,this hotels prices represent excellent value,don't expect business style comfort but all the basics are there,very helpul and efficient staff I would not recommend this hotel for a single woman on foot as the nearest tram stop is a good ten minute walk through a very dark housing estate,fine during the day but a bit intimidating at night
The rooms were clean but basic, the staff were very helpful and accommodating and there was an excellent choice at breakfast It would have been nice to have had the facility for an evening meal, as restaurants were a little way away from the hotel, or for the hotel to lay on transport
rooms were clean reception closed in the evening

The Motherf***Er with the Hat
A high-octane performance exploring complex themes of morality and happiness, The Motherf***er with the Hat follows recovering addict Jackie as he leads us on a poetically profane quest for self-transformation and misplaced haberdashery in the raw and gritty setting of New York City.
Described by the Wall Street Journal as "a tough-minded, unromantically romantic comedy that keeps you laughing then sends you home thinking," this avant-garde black comedy has an intellectual backbone, and its first New Zealand performance is unmissable.

The only art and literary magazine at Indiana University of Pennsylvania is in danger of losing funding after its 2014-15 budget allocation was denied by the IUP Co-op Board.
The loss of funding will mean that New Growth Arts Review won't be able to print the magazine, advertise or host the launch party, according to a petition in circulation to appeal the budget cut.
"New Growth Arts Review is the only art and creative writing magazine of IUP," said Kathleen Sallada (senior, English), NGAR's editor in chief. "It's the only magazine at IUP that allows students of all majors and all GPAs to submit their artwork and their creative writing to a magazine to be published every year."
The once-a-year publication – published at the end of each spring semester – is on its 34th volume.
"The Co-op has funded the magazine for as long as I've known, mostly because it is a publication run by students, produced for students and other members of the IUP community, and featuring the writing and artwork of students at IUP," NGAR adviser and English professor Dr. Chauna Craig said in an email interview.
This year's proposed budget would give NGAR between 500-600 bound, full-color magazines to be distributed to students, faculty and prospective students free of charge, Craig said.
Co-op Administrative Assistant Marian Stockdale informed Sallada that NGAR's proposed budget of around $4,000 had been denied in an email Friday, March 14.
"They said they discussed the budget, and the committee members questioned the date of publication and its visibility," Sallada said. "The members of the board, which are mostly students and two faculty members, also said they had never seen the publication."
The board also suggested that the magazine move to an entirely digital format, eliminating printing costs, she said.
NGAR members and supporters plan to appeal the budget denial at 3:30 p.m. Thursday in the Knowlton Board Room of the Hadley Union Building.
"I'm relatively disappointed with their lack of consideration for how this might affect the art culture, specifically of visual art on campus and the importance of supporting its students and cultivating their professional development," NGAR's art editor Jarret Wasko (senior, studio art) said.
Not only is a print copy of NGAR an important professional tool for the students whose work is published, but it also acts as a significant confidence boost, Wasko said.
"Seeing my work in print," he said, "was the most abstract and emotional importance that the magazine had for me. It inspired my self-confidence."
Contributors to the magazine appreciate that the work they do is being put into something that they can put into a portfolio as opposed to a URL link, Sallada said.
"It is unfortunate that our Finance Committee has to make cuts," said Student Government Association Vice President Zachery Chandler (junior, business education) in an email interview, "but we have a very limited portion of the $8.1 million Student Activity Fee that goes to student organizations."
The Co-op Board looks at every aspect to ensure that campus organizations receiving funding are using it wisely, Chandler said.
"They wouldn't have voted to cut something if they felt that it provided a greater benefit when compared to something else," he said.
An exhibition is planned for early May that will showcase artwork from several artists featured in NGAR as well as poetry readings from featured poets to be held in the Sprowls Hall's Kipp Annex Gallery, Wasko said.
The exhibition is open to everyone and will act as a great method of showcasing what NGAR contributors have been doing all year, Sallada said.
IUP President Dr. Michael Driscoll recently "reiterated the importance he places on the arts in education and their significance here at IUP," according to a March 24 article found on the Social Equity page of the IUP website.
"Seeing how the Co-op, independent of Dr. Driscoll, is acting in contradiction of the philosophy that our president wisely set is more than a little disappointing," Wasko said.
In addition to the petition, members of NGAR are also collecting reports from alumni who have previous experience with the magazine, which they will share at Thursday's appeal, Sallada said. The alumni reports will discuss how former members of NGAR believe their time at IUP was enriched because of it.
There has also been talk of distributing NGAR to other PASSHE schools in small quantities to share IUP's art culture with other universities, Wasko said.
To help NGAR remain a print publication, IUP students, faculty and staff can sign the online petition at ipetitions.com/petition/keep-ngar-in-print.

Paris (AFP) Oct 10, 2010
The magnitude 7.0 earthquake that struck Haiti in January, killing a quarter of a million people, also unleashed a string of tsunamis on the country's western coast, scientists reported on Sunday.
Several waves measuring up to 75 centimetres (two and a half feet) were caused by a combination of earth movement and coastal landslides.
They included banks of sediment on the sea bed, accumulated at river deltas, which were displaced by the shock and unleashed the waves as they moved, the study says.
Waves were reported west, north and south of the epicentre, which was within a few kilometres (miles) of the surface on the Enriquillo-Plaintain Garden fault, on the boundaries of two microplates in the Caribbean.
Such "slide-generated" tsunami are rare, but their risk is underestimated, according to the paper, published online in the journal Nature Geoscience.
"Even modest, predominantly strike-slip earthquakes can cause potentially catastrophic slide-generated tsunami," it says.
A strike-slip earthquake occurs when one side of the fault moves along horizontally and in parallel to the other side of the fault, rather than down or up.
Vertical displacement, especially of the seabed, is best known for creating tsunamis.
The study was led by a team led by Matthew Hornbach of the University of Texas at Austin.
The January 12 quake was in tectonic terms a surprisingly complex affair, according to new research. Two-thirds of the movement was strike-slip, and a third was a thrust, or upward, movement.
The quake inflicted huge damage to the capital, Port-au-Prince, injuring 300,000 people and leaving 1.5 million homeless.

Rescue workers were still searching for survivors from the floods that hit West Papua province's Teluk Wondama district last Monday following torrential downpours, Disaster Management Agency spokesman Priyadi Kardono told AFP.
"At least 148 people were killed. About 123 people are still missing and the chances of them being found alive is slim. They could have been buried under rocks or swept to the sea," he said.
About 700 people were injured, 172 badly, Kardono said.
Those killed had reportedly drowned and been swept away by the powerful waters along with uprooted trees, rocks and debris.
Experts warned such events will become more common in the archipelago due to a combination of climate change, land conversion and logging, which can contribute to landslides and flash floods after monsoonal downpours.
Indonesia's climatology agency said most parts of Indonesia had experienced torrential rains, strong winds, high waves and flooding due to extreme weather this year.

It was a game the Galaxy didn't need to win, and they did anyway. Now it's on to a must-win or the defending MLS champions are done for 2012.
Reserve midfielder Mike Magee's fifth goal of the season in the 83 rd minute lifted the Galaxy to a 1-0 victory over Seattle, which meant only that the Sounders lost out on having home-field advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
What the Galaxy believe they accomplished Sunday night before a sellout crowd at Home Depot Center was tuning up the right way for Thursday's play-in game against visiting Vancouver. A victory pushes the Galaxy into a home-and-home series with top-seeded San Jose.
"The last three weeks we got a little bit of a test against the three teams that finished ahead of us," Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said. "We size up OK. It's a good audition for what lies ahead, and obviously Vancouver's the team that's on our minds now.
"There are no excuses for our team not to be ready on Thursday. ... We've come on and gotten our team where we need them if we want to make any noise in the playoffs."
Landon Donovan, playing through pain with a bone bruise in his left knee, went the entire game, though the original plan was to sit him down after 60 minutes or so. David Beckham, back on his feet after spraining his left ankle, made it to the 62 nd minute.
But the dominant figure on the field was Robbie Keane, who created chance after chance and barely missed scoring several times. Still, he was the one who set up Magee for the goal after taking a pass from Magee and feeding it back for a left-footed shot that curled inside the far post.
It was Keane's ninth assist of the season, tying him with Beckham for second-best on the team. And though Keane, who led the Galaxy with 16 goals, thrives on putting the ball in the net, he retains a sense of pride for his overall game.
"I've always been that kind of player, creating chances," Keane said. "In England . . . my job was to score goals. People say he's a striker, they always judge you on your goals and not on the team play, your assists."
After the game, Keane was awarded the team's player of the year award.
"I think it's an honor he really deserves," Arena said. "He's clearly had an outstanding year for us and once he returned from the European Championships, he's been as good as any player in this league."
Both teams had big chances, but the Galaxy kept barely missing and Galaxy goalkeeper Josh Saunders, who made four saves for his ninth shutout, kept stopping Seattle's Fredy Montero, twice at point-blank range.
The Galaxy controlled play and had numerous chances in the first 25 minutes, then fizzled out for a while until Keane nearly volleyed in a crossing pass from Donovan in the 41 st minute.
Seattle came close, too. In the 25 th minute, Saunders sprawled to his right to deny a redirected shot by forward Eddie Johnson. Eight minutes later, Saunders was helped by his right goal post when Montero's header ricocheted harmless away.
Johnson had to leave the game just before halftime with an injured leg.
The Galaxy had a bit of a different lineup. Donovan, who spent most of the second half of the season at forward, went back to midfield and Edson Buddle got the start at forward. Midfielder Marcelo Sarvas, who played in Thursday's Champions League win in El Salvador, was on the bench.
Defender A.J. DeLaGarza, still nursing a sprained knee, was not on the roster and was replaced in the lineup by rookie Tommy Meyer.
DeLaGarza, voted the team's defender of the year, is still unlikely to play Thursday. Defender Sean Franklin started but gave way at halftime for rookie Bryan Gaul after his left hamstring tightened.
Sarvas eventually replaced Beckham, who was scheduled to leave at halftime but kept asking for more time.
"The plan was kind of 60, then I kind of shouted over and said, 'Can I have 65?' and Bruce pulled me off at 61 so I wasn't that happy," Beckham said with a smile. "It's been awhile for me, so it was good to be back on the field.
"Today I felt a lot stronger than I felt against Colorado when I came back after a few weeks. The ankle didn't feel right and I was honest with Bruce and the physios, and I'm not always honest. With this, I had to be. The ankle wasn't right."
Now the Galaxy have to be right, or the season is over.

Child, Jane
Born: Scarborough, Ontario
A native of Scarborough, Ontario, Child was the daughter of two seasoned classical musicians. Her mother taught her to sing and her father taught her violin in an atmosphere that excluded rock music. Her formative years were spent listening to an R & B station from Buffalo, New York and, at age 12, singing in the Canadian Children's Opera Company. Before long she was attending and then dropping out of the Royal Conservatory Of Music to join a rock band at age 15 as a keyboard player. In their first year together they toured for 45 weeks playing every rat infested dive in the sleezy backwaters of the Ontario club circuit. She became involved with a management company who moved her to New York City. But the clear vision of her career path clashed with management and during the falling out they confiscated all her recording equipment. She couldn't legally work in the US any longer but had already moved to Los Angeles when her 1988 demo sparked a bidding war by some 11 record labels. She finally rested in the hands of Michael Ostin, Vice-President of A & R for Warner Music in the US based on her self-contained musical ability of writing, performing and producing everything on her own. After some trepidation, Child convinced Warner that she needed the freedom to produce her own records. With her self-titled debut, Child landed a number one hit with "Don't Wanna Fall In Love" in the US in 1990 as it shot into the Billboard Top-10 and sold gold. Canada was a different matter but she did get her due in 1991 when she was nominated for four Juno Awards - 'Songwriter Of The Year', 'Most Promising Female Vocalist', 'Best Dance Recording', and 'Producer Of The Year'. The song eventually was released in half a dozen formats with no less than 13 alternate mixes for dance DJs and radio. The follow-up single "Welcome To The Real World" (which boasts two videos, one which never aired) did nothing to enhance the otherwise prestigious sales of her debut album. Still, she toured faithfully on the strength of her new found fame before returning to LA to start work on a follow-up album. Eighteen months of literal home recording (different instruments were recorded in various rooms in her house) spawned the funk-driven pop and moody power-pop record 'Here Not There'. Feeling she had been packaged and manipulated into a product sporting long braided hair and a nose ring, rather than emphasizing the music, Child took more control over her public image. To that end she mixed her dance rhythms with ragas and grunge affectations. The album did little to push her back into the limelight despite the Top-40 showing of "Do Watcha Do" in the US. By early 1995 she was let go by Warner Bros.

Former Ferrari driver Barrichello has failed to score points so far while Button has a fourth and a third place.
Button said: "He has struggled a little bit to get to grips with the car, which probably suits my style a bit more.
"He's having issues and when he solves them I'm sure he'll be there because he is quick - very quick."
Button admitted he was "surprised" by Barrichello's performance in the last race in Malaysia, when he struggled to an uncompetitive 10th place while the Englishman was on the rostrum.
"I think he does need to adapt," he added. "There are some improvements which are coming which will help both of us."
"I wouldn't expect it to change overnight," Fry said. "I would expect Rubens' performance to improve race by race as he gets more used to the team.
"We have made some changes to the car. These are genuine improvements to the car, they will help Jenson as well."
Barrichello left Ferrari at the end of last season because he was fed up playing second fiddle to Michael Schumacher.
And the 33-year-old said he was surprised to find himself so far off the pace.
"It is disappointing. I really felt on the top of my problems after we tested a lot in the winter," he said.
"The Fridays (of a Grand Prix weekend) have been a small struggle and I've had to get on top of it.
"In Malaysia I struggled big time from the first time I went out - I never got a balance."
He said he was hopeful of a better showing around the Albert Park track this weekend.
"This is one of my favourite races," he added. "I love the place.
"Melbourne is the third race this year but for me it's just like the first race because I haven't scored in the other ones.
"I think you learn from the difficulties. I went back (to Europe after the Malaysian Grand Prix) to do some testing, I think it was a little bit better."

Spectral Music utilizes an analysis of sound spectra usually through mathematical means. In a way, it may be compared with the operation of observing a material under microscope and then building a large scale object using that information. Not unlike the similarity between the random walks used by Xenakis to create continuous glissandi and his GenDyn program producing the air wave pressure. Based on a computer sound analysis of sound, spectral music creates an analogy between the internal structure of a sound and that of the entire piece. In many instances. It also erases the difference between harmony and timbre.Spectral music originated in France in the early 1970s with Tristan Murail and Gerard Grisey as the main representatives. Some have tried to enlarge the definition of spectral music to include any attempt to use timbre as an element of musical structure.
A very good source of information is the article Guide to the Basic Concepts and Techniques of Spectral Music by Joshua Fineberg from Contemporary Music Review, 2000, vol 19 Part 2, p.81-113.

|Pair of Wildcats are valuable in baseball and rodeo
|Tyler Clifton | News-Telegram Sports Writer
April 20, 2004 -- It's been a long time since Sam Smith accidentally batted left handed and ran the bases backwards during his tee-ball days.
Smith and current Sulphur Springs teammate Logan Pogue have been through the wars on the baseball field, from their sophomore years getting the first taste of varsity action until now, as they and their Wildcat teammates are hanging by a thread as far as their playoff future is concerned.
Smith is one of the team's catalysts in center field and hit leadoff for most of the season until head coach Rahn Smith made some changes late in the first half of district play. He's now batting in the third spot and seeing more RBI opportunities.
"It doesn't matter whether I hit first or third," Smith said. "I just like playing and try my hardest every at-bat and when I'm on the field."
No one can accuse Smith of not giving it his all, as he was also a starting defensive back on the football team. He also has a rather brave side to him.
Smith rides bulls in his spare time, and it's not something for the tender-hearted, as past results have included two broken ankles, elbow, ribs and collarbone. Smith has persevered through it all and was rewarded with a full scholarship to Vernon Junior College for bull riding.
Smith started riding calves when he was young and recently applied for a Professional Bull Rider's permit. He will compete in June's state finals, won last year's International Finals Youth Rodeo and will compete again in July. He already had to miss a game this season to take part in the Region V Finals in Ennis, where he finished in the Top 10 and advanced to the finals for the second straight year.
He credits his family for being role models, including parents Robert and Sharon. His father and two older brothers are local dairy farmers, his mother owns a flower shop, and his younger sister is a sophomore cheerleader.
As far as baseball is concerned, Smith has had his fair share of success, even though he's in what he calls a "slump," but as the old saying goes, "you're probably your own worst critic." He's not doing too shabby, as he has four hits in his last eight at-bats (.500 average).
Smith's 2004 season has been pretty productive, as he leads the team with 19 runs, is tied for second with 18 hits and is second in stolen bases with seven. Perhaps his most interesting number is his team-leading two home runs. They're the only two the Wildcats have hit all season, and ironically they're both against Denison. It includes the team's first district hit of the season, as Smith homered over the right field wall for the first run.
Smith and Pogue have tremendous leadership capabilities. It's something that doesn't go unnoticed.
"Sam and Logan are two hard-working kids that are fun to be around," Rahn Smith said. "You can tell what kind of background they come from by hanging around them, including their work ethic and the way they go about things.
"These guys know when to be serious and when to have a good time. They're the kind of kids you would want yours to be like, and I can't say enough good things about those two. I'd do anything for them, and they've developed into really good baseball players as well."
Pogue has been a fixture in the middle infield during his three seasons as a varsity Wildcat. He was also moved around in the batting order, going from cleanup hitter to second, where he seems to be more comfortable at the plate.
"I used to bat behind Sam and drive him in, and now we've reversed roles," Pogue said. "I'd rather bat second, because it forces me to be more patient, especially when Adam (Peugh) gets on base."
Pogue has been the team's most consistent hitter, and his batting average has hovered around the .300 mark all season. He leads the Wildcats with seven doubles, is tied for Smith for second with his 18 hits, is tied for third with 11 runs and is fourth in both RBIs (8) and stolen bases (3).
There's nothing better for a youngster than to earn his own keep, and Pogue does just that. It's the main reason he credits his father as being a big influence in his life.
"My dad stays on me hard," Pogue said. "He wants me to go to college and do better than he did. He makes me work and pay for my own things. It's going to prepare me well for when I go off on my own."
Pogue will make his father proud, as he is leaning toward attending the Fire Academy in Commerce.
Pogue also has ties with the rodeo, as he has roped calves ever since he was a young boy. He competes in the Four States High School Rodeo Association that consists of ropers from Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana. His uncle also owns the Sulphur Springs Livestock Sale Barn.
Fishing and hunting (ducks in particular) are what Pogue likes to do in his spare time, and he even nabbed a nine-point buck last November. He's had plenty of support from sisters Haley and Kelsy and does whatever he can to assist younger brothers Richard and Gage with their game, as they play in the pony and tee-ball leagues, respectively.
It hasn't been the season Pogue had hoped for, but he said he'll carry plenty of lessons with him from the diamond.
"Pride is what I'll take with me for sure," Pogue said. "I'm leaving here with eight other guys, most, if not all, who are from here. We're all pretty much friends."

Carley Rae Jepsen Set To Perform on 9021007/09/2012
LOS ANGELES, July 9, 2012 – Acclaimed artist and nationwide sensation Carly Rae Jepsen will make her first-ever television series appearance in the season premiere episode of 90210. The 90210 season premiere will airMonday, Oct. 8 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on The CW.
Jepsen will perform a song from her much-anticipated new album in the episode where she is the music headliner for Adrianna's (Jessica Lowndes) Las Vegas premiere, which is interrupted when Adrianna gets devastating news about Dixon (Tristan Wilds).
"We fell in love with her song when we first heard it, and used it in last season's finale before it was a national sensation," said Executive Producers Patti Carr and Lara Olsen. "We think she's an exciting artist and are thrilled to be able to have her music on the show again, this time in a live performance in our season premiere."
Canadian singer/songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen will release her debut album this fall on 604 Records/Schoolboy Records/Interscope. Jepsen will also hit the road with Justin Bieber as a very special guest on the multi-platinum pop/R&B sensation's 2012 headlining tour of North America. For details, please visit www.carlyraemusic.com. Currently claiming the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for four consecutive weeks with her platinum-certified debut U.S. single "Call Me Maybe," the ubiquitous "song of summer" has sold more than 3.8 million singles. Certified quintuple-platinum in Jepsen's native Canada (where it hit #1), the track is an international sensation, climbing to #1 in the iTunes Singles charts in the U.S. U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Norway and more.
Jepsen may be a newcomer in the U.S., but the Mission, British Columbia, native is an established artist in Canada. She has scored two previous gold singles and received numerous awards and accolades, including the 2012 MuchMusic "Video of the Year" award, the viewer-decided "UR Fave Video of the Year" and the MuchMusic.com "Most Watched Video" award. She has also been nominated for 2010 Juno Awards "Songwriter of the Year" and "Best New Artist," in addition to a 2010 MuchMusic Video Award nomination for "UR Fave New Artist." Carly has sold more than 400,000 singles in her home country and is signed to 604 Records in Canada. Carly's new single with Owl City, "Good Time," is out now.

Hello guys,
about 2 months ago I hit someone in sparring with one of those crappy thumb first hooks
It gives me a serious amount of pain if I dont wrap it right when sparring stand up.
Im competing at the kent open tomorrow and wondering if there is any way I can wrap it for BJJ? I suppose it would be the same way as a judo guy would do it?
The pain seems to be in the region of the base of the thumb.
any help would be appreciated.

Fear is the language of Abu Ghraib. Fear of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, fear of the army and the Shiite militia that backs it, and fear that al-Qaeda - the group that held the town and other centres around Iraq hostage to its radical vision of Islam - may use the declaration of an Islamic caliphate to stage a comeback.
''Nothing has changed in our life, except we are afraid,'' says Abu Hala, cradling the youngest of his three daughters in his arms in his modest home in Abu Ghraib.
Sunni militants fighting across Syria and Iraq have proclaimed the establishment of a ''caliphate'' in a move that could signal the birth of a new era of transnational jihadism. Now calling itself the Islamic State, ISIL has called on all other related Sunni factions, including al-Qaeda, to pledge their allegiance to the new state, which it says stretches from Aleppo in Syria to Diyala in Iraq.
Heavily fortified guard-posts line the road into Abu Ghraib and more than a dozen military vehicles are on the move alongside the occasional civilian car making the lonely 20-kilometre journey from the capital Baghdad.
It's the first day of Ramadan and the streets are all but deserted - shops will open again in the evening for the breaking of the fast. A howling hot wind picks up dust and rubbish and hurls it through the air as the small city that is seen as one of the three potential launch pads for a Sunni militant attack on the capital quietly bakes.
The newly minted Islamic State declared its chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as ''the caliph'' and ''leader for Muslims everywhere''. Baghdadi is thought to be the leader and strategic thinker behind ISIL. Its announcement that it has restored the caliphate ''is likely the most significant development in international jihadism since 9/11,'' said Charles Lister, a visiting fellow at the Brookings Doha Centre who studies jihadist groups.
''The impact of this announcement will be global as al-Qaeda affiliates and independent jihadist groups must now definitively choose to support and join the Islamic State or to oppose it,'' Mr Lister said.
Attorney-General George Brandis warned of the emergence of an effective terrorist state and said the development had ''very serious'' national security implications for Australia.
''It is, as the Prime Minister said last week, an ambition to create a new state, a new political structure, which among other things
will seek to export terrorism,'' Senator Brandis said.
Islamic Friendship Association founder Keysar Trad warned that only a small handful of ''uneducated nutters'' would support the claims by ISIL to establish a caliphate. He said ISIL were ''nasty, brutal murderers and until you can prove otherwise, why would you allow them to declare a legitimate caliphate?''
Back on the ground in Abu Ghraib, the Iraqi army is conducting house-to-house searches, looking for sleeping cells preparing to come alive if ISIL or the Sunni insurgents fighting with it breach the military's defences of this Western gateway to the capital.
It is clear the years of conflict and fear weigh heavily on 36-year-old Abu Hala.
Apart from the army, he says there is also the Shiite militia Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq operating in the area. As for the other armed groups: ''They are here, but I have no idea who they are.''
When I ask how he explains the latest crisis to his three daughters, 11, three and two, he quietly breaks down and cries. He cannot bring himself to answer the question, and says instead: ''For years when I was growing up I lived next door to my best friend, who is Shiite. We were so close we used to sleep in the same bed together.
''He lives far away now but he calls me every morning - he says to me 'I am so scared that one day I will call and you won't be there, that something terrible will have happened to you'.''
The threat of violence is always present in Abu Ghraib. After ISIL posted a video online in March showing its fighters parading through the streets of the town, Iraq's Justice Minister announced the government had completely evacuated the notorious Abu Ghraib prison - terrified ISIL might launch an attack on the jail and free al-Qaeda affiliated prisoners into the community.
Winter flooding resulted in the displacement of some of Abu Ghraib's residents and experts say this may allow ISIL to occupy deserted buildings in preparation for attacks on Baghdad.
''Right now we are all living day-to-day; nobody knows what will happen tomorrow,'' Abu Hala says.
He will not embrace ISIL - he says their brutality is the antithesis of his beliefs as a Sunni Muslim - although the military fears that the deep levels of animosity felt by many in Abu Ghraib towards the government could lead to significant support for the militants.
Like may Iraqis, Abu Hala has run the gauntlet of the brutality of each side of Iraq's sectarian conflict his whole life.
He was serving in the Iraqi army when al-Qaeda arrived in Abu Ghraib and was soon receiving relentless threats of violence.
''I had to move to Mosul so I would not be killed by al-Qaeda,'' he says. ''Life was very bad here under al-Qaeda - so many people were shot and killed, so many were blown up.''
Men had their fingers cut off for smoking and women were ordered to stay inside and cover their whole body, as well as their face, he says.
Once the Iraqi army regained control of the city, he and his family came home. But the harassment didn't stop. On his return he was arrested by the Shiite-dominated army and interrogated about his religious beliefs.
''Are you Sunni or Shiite,'' he was repeatedly asked during his interrogation, a plastic bag placed over his head to suffocate him into submission. Eventually he was released.
As ISIL cuts its brutal swath through the north of Iraq - taking the cities of Mosul and Tikrit, stopping just 50 kilometres away in the town of Fallujah - the military is working to secure the vulnerable Baghdad Belt area, including Abu Ghraib, that surrounds the capital.
Dr Hisham Hashimi, of the al-Rafidain Centre for Strategic Studies in Baghdad, says: ''The whole Baghdad Belt is full of sleeping cells for ISIL … and it is believed they will try to enter Baghdad simultaneously from three sides.
''The cell will only awaken when the ISIL fighting force enters the area - the force captures the area and moves on to the next battle, while the sleeping cell will take control of the place, both administratively and security-wise.''
Iraq Federal Police commander of operations Colonel Mohsen Ali says ''it is the Western border that is most vulnerable to an attack'' but Dr Hashimi says the north and the south are equally vulnerable.
Another resident who agreed to speak to Fairfax Media on the condition of anonymity also described a climate of fear inside Abu Ghraib.
Just 20 kilometres away, closer to Fallujah, there is fighting, he says. Insurgents are in the area and the army is shelling them and launching air strikes.
''Why would I welcome ISIL to my home?'' he asks. ''We already had al-Qaeda from 2006 to 2009 and they follow their own rules - they do what they like and they kill whoever they want. If I had to make a choice, I would chose the army over ISIL.''
Like others Fairfax Media spoke to, he plans to flee with his family should the fighting reach Abu Ghraib. If he does, he will be just one of more than 500,000 Iraqis who have run for their lives since ISIL took Mosul on June 9.

Shell ornament purchased by Nina Nicoletti at a shop in Tenerife in 1969 as a memento of the migration journey to Australia. Ports such as Tenerife (one of the Canary Islands of North West Africa) were regarded by passengers as exotic and souvenirs were acquired as mementoes of both the place but also of the experience, which was generally regarded as a 'trip of a lifetime'.
Nina Nicoletti, her husband and three children departed Italy on 15 August 1969 to migrate to Australia on an assisted passage. They travelled on the Angelina Lauro, via Tenerife and Cape Town. Nina recalls the trip as 'the cruise of a lifetime'. In Tenerife, the family went to a restaurant with three other families and had lots of fun, wine and the thrill of requesting grilled fish and choosing from a live selection. Nina recalls participating in all the shipboard activities and making many friends on the way - most of the passengers were Italian. She and her children stayed in the women's quarters, sharing with a Yugoslavian woman. She remembers rough seas between Cape Town and Fremantle whereby passengers had to hold on to ropes to move around the ship, and the ship nearly being toppled by a huge wave.
The family arrived at Station Pier at night time and were loaded straight onto a bus and were taken to Maribyrnong Hostel which she recalls as 'awful'. She remembers her three year old daughter becoming ill and asking why they had left home and feeling unable to answer her. They then rented in Moonee Ponds before buying a house in Brunswick and later Templestowe. Nina's husband was a television technician and got work easily. Nina had worked in a tailor's in Italy, but was employed at St Vincent's hospital from 1970 until the early 1990s as a nursing assistant which she enjoyed. She spoke no English and learned via the television, newspapers and from the hospital patients. Nina describes the early years as very difficult, but notes that now they would never return.
Physical Description
Metal 'clam' shell painted gold with black, red and white decoration on a round base attached to a square plastic stand. Across the top of the shell are six openings into which slot six miniature swords.
These items represent the kind of souvenirs immigrants purchased during their voyage to Australia. Ports such as Tenerife (one of the Canary Islands of NW Africa) were regarded by passengers as exotic and souvenirs were acquired as mementoes of both the place but also of the experience, which was generally regarded as a 'trip of a lifetime'. The museum has few port-to-port souvenirs in the collection and has been identified in the Migration Collection Plan as a priority collecting area.

"If we must part forever, Give me but one kind word to think upon, And please myself with, while my heart's breaking."
"When I say, "I love you," it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try.

If you remember, Roberta Flack began her professional career recording for Atlantic Records without much success, at least not until one of her earliest recordings, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (1969), was included on the soundtrack to Clint Eastwood's directorial debut Play Misty for Me. The song became a #1 hit back in 1972. I do remember the song, but have to admit I was not a real Clint Eastwood fan... but I was only 15 years old!
You could say the rest is history, but that would be an understatement.
If ever there was a must have recommendation, this CD would have to be one to consider. Here is a quick description: Produced as a companion piece to our best-selling 25th Anniversary set, there is no duplication here. For our 30th anniversary we look back at our greatest releases over the last five years. And being most prolific film music record label in the world, that meant we had over 250 soundtracks to choose from!
A few months ago I ran across a government site of interest. For those who did not know the Library of Congress catalogs Jazz/Film It is worth the visit.
Hope all is well and all remember Jazz in film/film on Jazz for important findings.

Application Package Implementation Success Factors
These tips from the trenches offer valuable advice for any project team about to implement an application package.

These tips from the trenches offer valuable advice for any project team about to implement an application package.
Know the technical foundation on which you will be setting up your application package -- do a gap assessment of the existing and new technical environment.
A necessary step in both selecting and implementing a package is detailing the technical requirements required to run the application. Identify the hardware/software environment, interfacing systems, operational and backup procedures, and other key technical requirements.
This is not a typical request for information that goes on forever in boring text, putting you and your potential vendors in a coma. It is a useful matrix that succinctly itemizes nearly every criterion for selecting an application vendor.
Assess the scope, impact ranking and criticality of each business change required to implement a particular application package.
Need to design any job steps as batch procedures? Here's a comprehensive template to use in specifying how the procedure should be coded and all the pertinent associated information.
Planning a project necessitates analyzing your client's business and determining system requirements based on business structure. What business areas will be addressed, how do they translate to functionality, and how is that functionality prioritized? Start with an organizational mapping of business areas to functions, like this example from the insurance/finance industry.
Should you implement an application package? Will it meet your business objectives, deliver what you want, benefit your business and provide value in the process? Spell it out with this spreadsheet.
User involvement is key to designing an effective application and a good user interface. Give the business users a template of standards and procedures to follow so that they can describe how they do their work, including workflow, and thus how the application should work for them.
A handy directory for cataloging and referencing application package suppliers and their product offerings.

Building costs of Installing a new swimming pool
Working out the costs of building your own swimming pool is not as difficult as it seems. Just follow these simple steps
How much does a swimming pool cost to build and what's the best time of the year to to build it?
There's no good time of the year to have your pool installed, but in my opinion the best times to have a swimming pool constructed (dispite any inclement weather) is between October and the beginning of April. If you're unlucky enough to get a wet winter, then consider the extra cost of covering the pool area while it is under construction. If you wait until the warmer spring and summer seasons arrive, you may find many pool builders will be busy and rushed off their feet with swimming pools that will need maintenance & attention and you may have a wait while for your pool to be installed.
So here are a few things that you need to investigate about building a swimming pool.
- You'll need to know your budget cost +10% for eventualities… It always happens, no matter how well a build of any type is planned, for example, you may not know what is beneath your garden in terms of subsoil or rock. In one particular pool installation, when excavating, they found loads of discarded apple tree roots buried deep down and the location of the pool had to be moved to another spot. Another excavation revealed a high water table that was only 1ft (300mm) below the ground surface. Also you may change your mind about a pool design or add something like more pool lights, an automatic cover or make the pool bigger.
- If you're not sure what to do or where to begin, it's worthwhile seeking advice from a swimming pool builder or an architect who is familiar with constructing swimming pools, as these are the experts you need to consult with on this type of construction.
- Swimming pool installations are a specialised area of construction, and it's not a good idea to employ a general builder who may have scant knowledge of building a swimming pool of any type. The important thing to remember when sourcing someone or an installer to build your swimming pool is this; "constructing a pool is not the same as building a house or an extension". There can be many pitfalls during and after construction, so please bare that in mind. Concrete pools in particular are much more expensive to build, and take a very long time to construct, this is mainly due to their curing & drying times, and if they are not constructed to the correct specifications, they may be susceptible to leaking and extra cost to correct the failure…
Before arriving at the cost of building your swimming pool, you'll first need to know what type and the shape of pool you want.
Your budget: How much are you willing to spend on a swimming pool? Remember when sizing your pool to include the cost of possible accessories like a plant room for your filter and pump, heating, heat retention and debris cover, walk in steps, underwater lights etc, also what type of decking and surrounds you fancy and how wide you want the flooring around your pool.
DIY or professional built swimming pools. Are you building the swimming pool yourself? There are no sour grapes here, but a word of caution… If you don't have knowledge of building swimming pools, then don't attempt to build the pool yourself without getting experienced help, even if you are very good at DIY or you are a builder, there are a few pitfalls and pot holes you should be aware of and you do need the advice and guidance from an experience pool installer, otherwise it could end up costing you a fortune if you get it wrong, and I've seen a few clangers about that we've had to come in and put right…
Do you want a concrete or liner pool? After you've considered whether it is a self build or obtaining the services of a professional, the next stage is which type of pool do you want for your budget. Now if it's a concrete tiled pool, then these are more than twice the cost of a liner pool and they take up to 3 times or longer to build. So unless you have major bucks, and time is not a problem for you, then a concrete tiled or rendered and tiled pool is fine.
Liner pools and building your swimming pool with concrete blocks panels or timber? Let us assume it's a liner pool that you want and it is to be built by a pool builder. The next thing to consider is which wall materials to use, i.e. build the swimming pool with timber (wooden pools come in kit form) panels or building with concrete blocks? Concrete block construction is, in my opinion best option. It is a much more solid construction than the other two, but does use more materials.
The 'panel pool' and 'wooden pool' on the other hand are easier to construct and uses less materials. The drawback with wooden pools is they are really only short term, most have a 10 year warranty and there is the potential for the timber to eventually rot in places. Basically they are a cheaper method of building a swimming pool and even though there is less excavation with these wooden pools (If required to install the pool in ground), the installation costs are not far off the same as a concrete block or panel pool.
Panel pools are fine however they are not as stable or as strong as the concrete block method of construction, especially if the panels and the supporting stays are fixed incorrectly, and panel pools can be more costly to buy.
So you've chosen the type of materials. The next stage is the design, shape, and size of the swimming pool…
The design and shape your swimming pool will determine the cost… Most swimming pools are rectangle, however if you don't like straight lines, then a kidney shape is available. You could have a random shape however once again these will cost more to build and take longer to construct.
What size swimming pool do you require? How long, how wide, how deep do you want your pool to be? Obviously the bigger the size of pool the more it will cost and the longer it will take to construct. If you want your pool for looks then a reasonably large swimming pool say 15ft x 30ft is plenty big enough. Liner pool sizes can start from as small as 12ft x 8ft (This size is usually for exercise pools) on to 10ft x 20ft and up to 20ft x 40ft.
However if you like to swim and enjoy exercising, but have tighter budget cost and you lack the space where to locate the pool, consider a smaller size swimming pool with a counter current fitted. There's much to be saved in construction costs, build times and the future running costs with smaller exercise swimming pool, and you can have an endless amount of time swimming against a current of water without the need to turn end to end in the swimming pool.
Swimming pool enclosure. One other thing is to consider installing a swimming pool undercover. The swimming season can be extended by many months or all year round by building swimming pool in a solid building or a purpose built enclosure. Planning and building control permissions may be needed for these so seek advice from your local authorities or ask the pool installer to take this role on for you.
The benefits of a pool enclosure are these:
a) They ensure that you do not waste heat energy stored in the water from the heated water or the suns solar gain.
b) Besides keeping the water at a comfortable temperature, the air temperature remains warm, free from draughts. A solar or heat retention cover is still needed to decrease evaporation
c) In the summer you are unlikely to use the heater, and this will save you money on your heating costs. There is additional savings on the use and cost of chemicals and water, also save you time and work keeping the pool maintained as there is less debris and bugs that will enter the swimming pool.
Now you've chosen one of the options and estimated the cost of your swimming pool, you will want to know where the best place to locate your swimming pool? Read more

All those ugly stretched images makes it even more offensive to theverge – and without those pretty colours and good design it just looks a mess.
Love when people do a direct rip off and it looks worse.
The sad thing is FinalDestiny is probably right…
Are you getting a theme – WordPress or template – HTML?
HTML you will need a code editor, anything from notepad to Sublime Text can be used however I'd suggest you get familiar with the code first.
However if you're getting a theme – WordPress most of the above will be covered in the theme options, most themes nowadays are all drag and drop and really easy to use
It can take up to a week, be patient
Can't think of anyone more deserving! Cracking work – Won't be long till 20,000 or even 100,000 the way you're going!!

RubenBristian saidthanks for this. What happens if i own both the two websites?
Each license can be used for a single site. Using the same theme on two websites? Two licenses and so on… More info here: http://themeforest.net/licenses
Internet police.
Could you just use tabs and each one has a different ID for what you're using? I use mixitup and it'd just be
Really love the idea! Love the profile picture too really nice design style
It might just be me – but that doesn't seem that bad
Sorry you don't like the responsive version – To remove it simple remove lines 2800 – 2882 in styles.css located here > here > here
Maybe add in that a refund isn't an appropriate threat and that quality of support is easily measured.
Feel free to contact me so we can discuss it further.
It's pretty hard to read but I have a ton of issues with reading and my eye sight so I read at about 40 – 60 WPM which is pretty damn poor seeing as the Average is 220.
I checked out http://www.spritzinc.com/# and found I could easily read at 400 Words Per Minute. It's really cool and I'd love to see where it goes!

A wrap? Welcome sight. Good comeback win for the guys.
Yeah, I was inspired. I'm such a sucker for this team, no idea why.
that one stretch when Turner hit a jumper and then for the next few offensive possessions EVERYTHING ran through him when Jrue was on the floor with very few positive things happening
please no more of that...
Yep, I know exactly the stretch you're talking about. Jrue was actually on a roll, set up Turner for that J, then Turner all of a sudden decides he's going to take over. Offense grinds to a halt.
Was this the stretch where he I think muffed two straight possessions and Doug immediately pulled him? Trying to figure out which you're referring?
I can't remember if Doug pulled him, let me look at the play-by-play. Pretty sure I can find it.
Hmmn. It's not standing out to me.
I checked out the game thread, you were pissed w/ Jrue's shots in the fourth, huh? I didn't really have a problem w/ them. He took that one three, but he got the ball w/ 4 seconds on the shot clock and sort of had to let it fly. Think maybe he should've realized he didn't have his legs and taken it to the hole more, but he didn't seem to be pressing that much. Really changed his approach in the final five minutes. I guess you could say he should've changed it earlier.
I think it's time to see Wayns again. I agree that the Ivey stretch of minutes is getting tired. Maybe Wayns can spark some easy offense at the end of the 1st and 3rd.
I loved the move by Doug in the 4th. If Bynum ever comes back, this team is going to be really fun to watch.
i'm curious as to what you guys think the team lacks once Bynum comes back. I was thinking about it this morning, i think they need an Amir Johnson type off the bench. A super high energy, big that hits the glass and a real small forward. Not sure if we can flip Turner, but i think the sooner the better. He is about 20 games away from Michael Beasley status in terms of trade value. I guess we need a real back up point guard as well. A Calderon type off the bench would be great. That's three players plus a new pair of knees for Christmas please!
I think his value is probably much less than Beasley's was. Beasley could always score, even if he did it inefficiently. There's a market for that.
speaking of Wayns, he got a write-up from Cooney today. seems like a smart kid, and already has more self-awareness than probably 90% of the rest of the NBA:
Does anyone know why Doug has relegated Wright to the deepest part of the bench? Just a few weeks ago he was raving about how Wright is so much more than just a sharp-shooter, and was impressed by his defense. And I didn't see anything in the first few games to justify a drastic limit to his minutes. What happened? He needs to be on the floor.
becoming more apprehensive by the day about re-signing this dude
pargo starting for irving tonight, however i would expect waiters to initiate most of the offense
