1 DELIVERING MOBILE GOVERNMENT SERVICES THROUGH CLOUD COMPUTING Konstantin Simić 1, Jovana Dadić 2, Lidija Paunović 3, Miloš Milutinović 4, Zorica Bogdanović 5 Abstract With the implementation of Internet into mobile devices the ubiquitous connectivity has become a reality. The affordance of mobile technology can be exploited to make e-government more pervasive and equitable. The advances of mobile technology have empowered citizens with means to access information and use e-government services from anyplace and anytime. M- government stands for the use of mobile technologies within the government administration to deliver public services to citizens and companies. Main subject of this paper is analysis of potentials and benefits that mobile technologies can bring to e-government services. We analyze the need and possibilities for implementing m- government services. We provide a model for implementing mobile government services through cloud computing infrastructure. We present a generic framework to encourage e-government practitioners to be easily involved in the design and development process to generate more m-government services, document 1 Konstantin Simić was born in 1985, in Belgrade, Serbia.

2 good practices, and derive more strategies to improve the engagement in a ubiquitous approach through mobile devices. Keywords: mobile services, mobile technology, e-government, cloud computing Introduction The emergence of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has provided means for faster and better communication, efficient storage, retrieval and processing of data and exchange and utilization of information to its users, be they individuals, groups, businesses, organizations or governments. With growing computerization and increasing internet connectivity. Governments around the world have engaged in the process of developing a wide range of (e-government) services by using web-based internet applications. These technological advances have tended to occur at a much slower rate in less-developed countries. Governments are aiming to meet the rising expectations of citizens for better, more comprehensive services using innovative information technologies and various service delivery channels. Mobile internet and related technology are among the most advanced delivery channels that are leading to a new era of mobile government. It is no longer a matter of whether or not e-government professionals, should acquire necessary skills to prepare for the new move towards mgovernment, it is a matter of how fast they can acquire the skills to meet the growing services demands of multiple stakeholders (e.g., the public, private and public companies). Main subject of this paper is analysis of potentials and benefits that mobile technologies can bring to e-government services. We analyze the need and possibilities for implementing m- government services. We provide a model for implementing mobile government services through cloud computing infrastructure. Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources, (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction (National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), 2009). Cloud computing available service models are: 1) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). IaaS provides the consumer with the capability to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources, and allows the
3 consumer to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. 2) Platform as a Service (PaaS). PaaS provides the consumer with the capability to deploy consumer-created or acquired applications, which are produced using programming languages and tools supported by the provider, onto the cloud infrastructure. 3) Software as a Service (SaaS). SaaS provides the consumer with the capability to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices, through a thin client interface, such as a web browser (e.g., web-based ). In this paper, we present a generic framework to encourage e-government practitioners to be easily involved in the design and development process to generate more m-government services, document good practices, and derive more strategies to improve the engagement in a ubiquitous approach through mobile devices. Our framework suggests that much remains to be done for current mgovernment applications to be able to serve governments with effective tools of administration. Instead, it suggests that adoption of mobile technologies primarily serves external parties to governmental institutions such as citizens and other businesses but has not yet resulted in significant improvements in effectiveness or efficiency for governmental agencies or units. We argue that it is important to understand the impact of mobile technologies on government administration as this may have implications for the success of well-planned, integrated, and widely adopted mgovernment applications. We argue that the inherent characteristics of governmental administrations will likely endure, at least in the short run, but there will likely be various efficiency gains in terms of speed, improved services, and possibly cost savings. Having introduced mobile technologies and their utilization in the governmental sector, the remainder of this paper is organized as follows. In the next section we provide impact that mobile technology has on governments. We then review e-government services and we discuss their application in the cloud computing environment. We next present a model of a mobile e- government service for citizens. We close the paper with a discussion of key observations and implications for future research.
4 Mobile technologies and services Mobile technologies are handheld IT artifacts that encompass hardware (devices), software (interface, applications), and communication (network services) (Jarvenpaa, Lang, 2005). There are estimated to be 1.5 billion mobile phones in the world today (Prensky, 2005). Mobile devices enable information access in its contexts as well as synchronous and asynchronous communication with other participants (Hwang, Tsai, 2011). Mobile technologies Mobile technologies can be classified by the type of networks which use these technologies. Purpose of using mobile technologies highly depends of their range and speed. By the range of network coverage, all networks can be classified into several types: PAN (personal area network), LAN (local area network), MAN (metropolitan area network) and WAN (wide area network). Wireless PAN (WPAN) is a network with the smallest coverage. Its coverage is less than 10 meters and it is used for data interchange between two devices. The most widespread technologies which use WPAN are Bluetooth and ZigBee. Bluetooth is a universal radio interface in the 2.45 GHz frequency band that enables portable electronic devices to connect and communicate wirelessly via short-range, ad hoc networks. Each unit can simultaneously communicate with up to seven other units per piconet. Moreover, each unit can simultaneously belong to several piconets (Haartsen, 1998). ZigBee is a specification for wireless personal area networks (WPANs) operating at 868 MHz, MHz, and 2.4 GHz. A WPAN is a personal area network (a network for interconnecting an individual's devices) in which the device connections are wireless. Using ZigBee, devices in a WPAN can communicate at speeds of up to 250 Kbps while physically separated by distances of up to 50 meters in typical circumstances and greater distances in an ideal environment. ZigBee is based on the specification approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standards Association (IEEE-SA). Wireless LAN (WLAN) is a network which connects two or more devices which are located at small distances away from each other. WLAN networks are usually used at homes or offices. Typical example of a technology which uses WLAN is WiFi.
5 WiFi is the popular name for the wireless Ethernet b/g/n standard for WLANs. WiFi LANs operate using unlicensed spectrum in the 2.4 GHz band. Typically, WLANs are deployed in a distributed way. A number of corporate business and university campuses have deployed such contiguous WLANs. Still, the WLAN technology was not designed to support high-speed handoff associated with users moving between base station coverage areas (i.e., the problem addressed by mobile systems) (Lehr, McKnight, 2003). Wireless MAN (WMAN) is a network larger than WLAN but smaller than PAN and usually it covers a city or larger territory. An example of a technology which uses this network is WiMAX. WiMAX is based on the IEEE standard. The main features of this standard are frequencies less than 11 GHz, separated into several frequency bands, high data rates (higher than 10 Mbps) and a large coverage area (~ 20 km). (Nuyami, 2007). WAN represents a system of connected LAN networks, situated in a large geographical area. The largest WAN network is the Internet. Mobile services Mobile services are organized into several categories, which are: voice services, data services, messaging services and video services. Mobile network providers provide these services to their customers via GSM or 3G networks. Voice services are the main services of mobile networks. Using these services, customers are able to make calls to other customers as well as to use additional voice services, such as: call waiting, call back, call forwarding, call barring, voice mail etc. Data services include data transmission using mobile networks. Data services are becoming increasingly popular thanks to smart phones. A large number of applications designed for smart phone platforms (Android, ios, Windows Phone etc.) are using data services. A user of mobile application can choose which connection he/she is going to use. The user is usually able to choose between mobile network data connection and WiFi. Mobile data services include GPRS, UMTS, HSPA or HSPA+ technologies. Messaging services include sending text or multimedia messages to other mobile customers.
6 SMS (Short Message Service) represents a communication protocol which permits the exchange of short text messages up to 160 characters between mobile devices. SMS is globally accepted service. MMS (Multimedia Message Service) is an extension of messaging services. This service enables sending rich content, such as images or audio files, to other customers. Video services are specific for third generation mobile networks. They enable video calling. By using the video calling service, one customer can see and hear the other customer at the real time. Both customers must have appropriate equipment (3G video phones with embedded front camera and with video calling support). E-government services There are twelve services for citizens and eight services for enterprises. Citizen services include tax registration, job searching, social revenues, issuing personal documents, vehicle registration, application for building permits, police registration, public libraries, issuing birth, death and marriage certificates, services related to higher education, online change of residential address and health-care services. Enterprise services include following services: social revenues for employed, company tax registration, VAT registration, registration of a new enterprise, delivering data to statistical organizations, customs declarations, environment-related permissions and electronic public procurements. In the following text, the most important services which are implemented in Serbia will be described. Tax registration Tax registration services include services for both citizens and enterprises. In Serbia, it is possible to submit a tax registration application online since March It is also possible to view a report related to taxpayer s liabilities. Several other services, such as issuing an electronic certificate of all paid debts, electronic application for taxes for total revenue of citizens, online payment of taxes, as well as online office business are planned to be introduced (Internet 4).
7 Job searching National Employment Service provides online services to employers in Serbia. An employer can fill out an online application form to announce a new available job position. Unemployed person is able to browse a catalog of available job positions but currently it is not possibly to apply for a position online (Internet 3). Issuing personal documents Few municipalities in Serbia offer a possibility of making an appointment for issuing a national ID card or passport for citizens. A citizen can log into the E-government portal by using an electronic certificate and make an appointment by choosing date, time and desired police station where he/she can submit a request for a new document. In the desire time, the citizen needs to go to the chosen police station and he/she needs to present required documentation. This service is convenient because it eliminates all the queues in front of police stations. This service is also implemented as mobile service, so citizens can submit a request for an appointment via SMS (Internet 5). Issuing birth, death and marriage certificates A service for issuing birth, death and marriage certificates is available by some municipalities. Currently, this service is not centralized nor integrated with the E-government portal. If a citizen needs to order a certificate, he/she needs to fill out a form at a website of local municipality. The implementation of the service is dependent of a municipality. Using cloud computing for implementation of e-government services E-government services need to be available for a large number of citizens. Because of a large number of requests, a scalable and reliable infrastructure is needed. Cloud computing is convenient approach because it is a high-scalable infrastructure which can responds to a large number of requests. Recently, the U.S. federal cloud computing initiative was published, which is a service oriented approach, whereby common infrastructure information and solutions can be shared across the U.S. government (National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), 2009).
8 Cloud computing has the capability to evolve beyond meeting the business needs of e- Government agencies and towards providing to numerous identified e-citizens related shortages. Model for introducing m-government services through cloud computing M-government services through cloud computing infrastructure permits integration of smart phone applications as well as traditional mobile network services (SMS, MMS etc.) with the e- government portal. Cloud computing infrastructure is used because it provides high scalability. There is a large amount of data in databases of e-government services and this is the main reason why the cloud infrastructure is used. The main benefit of providing mobile e-government services to citizens is making e-government services available to all citizens. In Serbia, the number of mobile customers are greater than the total number of inhabitants (Internet 1). Also, the number of citizens who own a smart phone is increasing. Mobile services are not yet available for major e-government services (Internet 2). Proposed model for developing m-government services should permit access to e-government services using different mobile services. Figure 1 shows the proposed infrastructure of mobile e-government services. The infrastructure is based on cloud computing model. E-government portal and web service for integration with mobile devices are installed on virtual machines in the cloud computing infrastructure. Web service integrates mobile applications with e-government portal. The e-government portal with its databases is the main part of the whole e-government system. The e-government portal integrates its databases with databases of each government ministry, government agency as well as with databases of local authorities. All major mobile services are supported. It means that a citizen can use m-government services via specialized mobile application, SMS or voice call. In the first case, a citizen needs to install a mobile application onto his/her smartphone. All major mobile platforms will be supported. Separate applications for Android, ios, Windows Phone operation systems will be developed. In the second case, a citizen needs to send a SMS with particular contents to a mobile number determined by the E-government portal. The web service sends back a response to the citizen. Finally, a citizen can use mobile voice services for particular m-government service. The citizen needs to dial a particular number. An IVR (interactive voice response) system answers the call.
9 The citizen can choose an option by pressing a keypad digit and he/she can hear the response. Figure 1 The model of the infrastructure for cloud-based mobile e-government services Mobile services will be implemented for all e-government services. In the first phase of introducing the system, citizen services will be introduced and the services for enterprises will be introduced in the next phase. Representative example of a mobile service for e-government is ordering birth certificates. For instance, a citizen wants to order his/her birth certificate. The citizen needs to open a mobile application and to select an option for ordering a birth certificate. It is important that the citizen use his/her own mobile phone which is registered for using m-government services. The device sends a request to a web service which integrates the e-government system components. This web service forwards the request to the E-government portal which sends the request to the central birth register of the Republic of Serbia. The central register checks whether the birth record exists and if it is the case, it sends the request to according local municipality where the birth certificate was issued. The local authority sends back the response directly to the E- government portal, which forwards it to the web service. Finally, the user gets the information that the birth certificate is successfully ordered and that it will be delivered to the address of the citizen. Mentioned phases of the example are shown in the Figure 2.
10 Figure 2 Service for ordering a birth certificate Conclusion In this paper, we presented all main concepts of mobile technologies. We also presented e- government services and we explained how they are implemented using cloud computing concept. We developed a model for e-government mobile services in the cloud computing environment. In the future, the e-government portal needs some improvements regarding the integration of system components.

Fast food: Lovely spots in Maine
Down East magazine dares to name Maine's 10 prettiest villages in its September issue.
It's a subject rife with Pine Tree State intrigue, largely because one coastal town, Wiscasset, proclaims itself "The Prettiest Village in Maine" in a roadside sign.
Wiscasset placed fourth on Down East's list, behind Camden, Boothbay Harbor and Damariscotta. The iconic Midcoast towns are within an easy drive of each other. They also represent my own little slice of foodie heaven: We often stay with family in Damariscotta and there's no better time to enjoy the abundance of local flavors from land and water.
Here are five must-see spots for food lovers in Maine's four prettiest villages over Labor Day weekend or during leaf-peeping season ahead.
• Bet's Fish Fry (Boothbay Harbor) — Eye-popping piles of fried fish and massive fish sandwiches served from a roadside stand, where there is always the promise of "free beer tomorrow."
• Clark Farms (Damariscotta) — Rustic farm stand sells local meat, produce, dairy, pickled goods, spectacular smoked cheddar cheese and a colorful array of heirloom tomatoes.
• Fisherman's Catch (Damariscotta) — Great place to purchase Pemaquid oysters harvested from the Damariscotta River. Huge American Indian shell middens in the area attest to the oyster's historic importance.
• Francine Bistro (Camden) — Quaint 25-seat restaurant with a focus on fresh, organic and local fare from chef-owner Brian Hill, who got his start working for Todd English at Olive's in Charlestown.
• Red's Eats (Wiscasset) — The seafood shack is home of the most popular lobster roll in Maine; the lines of people actually cause long traffic jams on Route 1 throughout the summer.
- Red's Eats Cole Slaw
- 1 head cabbage
- 2 large carrots
- Extra heavy mayonnaise to taste
- Sugar to taste
- Apple cider vinegar to taste
Shred cabbage and carrot together in food processor. Stir together in large bowl. Mix together mayonnaise, sugar and vinegar. Taste and adjust to your liking. Add dressing to cabbage mixture a little at a time, stirring well after each addition. Use only enough dressing to moisten the vegetables. Serves about 8 to 12.
(From "Red's Eats: World's Best Lobster Shack" by Virginia Wright and Debbie Gagnon Cronk; Down East Books, 2010, $14.95)
Not your mom's meatloaf
Brunch at the Painted Burro in Somerville offers creative twists on old weekend favorites, packed with sharp and spicy Mexican-style flavors.
Try the chipotle chocolate pancakes with sweet agave whipped cream or the loco dog, a hot dog with savoy cabbage, jalapeno slaw, chicharron, chipotle ketchup and agave mustard. Wash it down with a boozy avocado coconut colada.
The highlight of the menu may be the Yucatan meatloaf. Executive chef Danny Bua Jr. was inspired to create the decadent hangover helper when he sampled the local street-cart meatloafs during a visit to the Yucatan.
The window is small: Painted Burro offers brunch only from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sundays.
- Painted Burro Yucatan Meatloaf
- 1 small white onion, diced
- 6 cloves garlic, sliced thin
- 4 oz. chopped ham
- 1/2 c. toasted almonds, chopped
- 1 can Deviled Ham Spread
- 1 egg
- 1 T. whole grain mustard
- 1/4 c. green olives with pimentos, chopped
- 3 T. pickled jalapenos
- 3 T. sliced carrots
- 2 c. panko bread crumbs
- 5 oz. evaporated milk
- 2 cans chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
- 5 T. mayo
- 1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
- 1 1/2 lbs. coarse ground pork shoulder
- Cilantro for garnish
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Saute onions and garlic in a splash of oil over medium-high heat. Render chopped ham over medium-high heat in a separate pan, discarding fat. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, until everything is well mixed and distributed. Pack mixture into loaf form in a casserole coated with nonstick spray. Bake approximately 30 minutes. Let cool thoroughly and then cut into thick slices. Serve open faced on thick toast and top with mole sauce and fried eggs. Garnish with cilantro. Serves 8 to 10.
(The Painted Burro, 219 Elm St., Somerville; 617-776-0005; www.thepainted [1] burro.com.)

Bali Hai – Ambae…for a generation or more it has conjured visions of mystique, of a magical primitive Paradise. Ambae is an exceptionally beautiful island and its legendary disappearing act is real. When seen from the East coast of Santo, the island is a clear blue pyramid rising from the ocean in the early morning light. But as the sun climbs higher, except for rare, clear days, the island quickly disappears behind a glare of sea haze.

Social Networking: What Do I Need to Know?
Found In: Social Networks
It seems that everyone is on some form of social network these days. With the frequent scare-mongering going on in the news, it's possible to get the impression that these websites are crawling with unsavoury characters ready to leap out at a moment's notice and infect the minds of the young and impressionable. The reality, however, is far more mundane than the media would have you believe.
The Basics of Social Networking
Social networks essentially allow people to create their own little mini-webpage that others can see. They also have a range of gadgets, such as small games and useful tools. People can tag each other as friends, comment on each other's sites, and chat. Your page can contain whatever you choose to reveal about yourself: your favourite music, your photos, or your diary.
People enjoy using these sites for many reasons. They allow them to keep in contact with friends who might have moved away or who they would normally never get the chance to call. For teenagers, it allows them to be a part of a group, and of course, to show off to all their friends. It's all part of the networking phenomenon of making new contacts online who share their interests, and for the vast majority of users, it's just a way to have fun with friends and meet new people.
Should You Be Concerned?
The main concern for parents is where their children make contacts that may be shady in nature. Social networking sites have been used by sexual predators to make contact with vulnerable victims, although this is thankfully rare. Identity theft is another problem; if someone reveals too much information, it may lead to a criminal guessing the password to their email, gaining access to their credit card information, and other harmful acts. It is also possible for seemingly benign information to become an issue – many employers do online searches for prospective employees, and they are not likely to offer a job to someone whose social profile includes many embarrassing photos.
How to Protect Yourself
The most important thing to remember is that, although it's fun and a great way to keep in touch, using a social networking site is like shouting things about yourself in the middle of the street. Unless a user specifically restricts who can read their webpage, any information there is as public as if they ran an advert in the newspaper. The vast majority of social networking sites also provide privacy settings which allows a user some level of control over who can read about them. It's also important to know that people frequently lie about themselves online, and although there is no need to automatically suspect everyone, a healthy dose of caution won't go astray.
Parents should be aware of who their children are associating with. Contacts through social networking are the online equivalent of meeting strangers in the street, and they should be viewed with the same level of caution and interest. Take note of what information they're giving out, and think about whether that information can be used against them. Common sense is the best course of action – there is no need to completely prevent a child from using Facebook or Twitter, for example. Just be aware of what they do, and caution them if necessary.

Compared to the rest of the Bay Area market, the Memorial Hospital Neighborhood region has less expensive rates, so you should have no trouble finding a great deal in this undervalued region.
In the last 90 days, 3 listings have been posted online, which means spaces might be leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to tour spaces as quick as possible. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet posted, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around 1,240 sqft. Most properties in this region are approximately 2 floors. Most buildings in this area were built in 1968 and are Class B.
Not much of the real estate is used for commercial space, so it might be hard to find office space. Education is the dominant industry in this area. Most of the folk of Memorial Hospital Neighborhood work from home. Commuting close to an hour a day is the norm for those who opt to reside in this part of town.

It was a very espacious hotel, the rooms (bathroom and sleeping area), the restaurant, the hall,... Very nice staff and professional. Food (diner and breakfast) was excellent. I cannot say anything, maybe if they had a swimming-pool, could be the perfect hotel of the area :)
Free parking, Huge bed, Bathroom. Ideal place to stay when visiting Blijdorp zoo. Luxurious room for 100 EUR. Sheets were stained although the rest of the room was clean, Breakfast was not included and expensive , so we didn't eat there. Hotel is very huge building, not very romantic place to eat. We had to pay a warranty of 50 EUR when we checked in, and they "forgot" to tell us. When I saw the receipt of my VISA, I had to ask what this 50 EUR is for.
modern, clean locked room window, strange smells, bar area
great restaurant, great staff, great room! more for groups, and a bit out of the way of the city, but there is a bus stop right in front of the hotel.
Hotel staff are quite friendly and a great assist on info about getting around town Not at all! Rather I regret that I had to leave too soon! the info on distance from the Schipol airport on the web should be more accurate though.
Spacious rooms, good quality furniture and comfortable beds, modern design, excellent breakfast, professional service and sufficient free parking near the hotel Welcome pack in the room with coffee/tea did not contain the coffee and tea.
Very comfortable and clean hotel. Delicious breakfast and very friendly service.
Everything Brand New. Staff very keen to please. Will definitely use again next time in Rotterdam Everything was perfect
Very helpful staff and we were pleased to stay there
comfortable bed limited parking possibilities
localização central
Proximidade da Estação Central e pequeno almoço incluido Limpeza das toalhas de casa de banho e modernização dos quartos (ex: retirar alcatifa dos quartos)
Quarto agradável, boa localização. Funcionários pouco simpáticos, pequeno almoço poderia melhorar.

The apartment is located in the heart of Lisbon, next to the Cathedral.
Is composed with 2 bedrooms, the two with a double bed and plus a extra bed in the living room.
All bed linen and towels are provided.
Here is next to the most varied points of interest in the city, as well as great restaurants to enjoy the typical Portuguese gastronomy.
You feel the river in your hands, the comfort inside and beauty around... Simple in one of the best areas of Lisbon
The strategical location of this apartment, right by the Lisbon´s Cathedral, will make you enjoy the city in a few steps, as you find everything you need at door. The apartment is located in a newly refurbished and very beautifull building facing the Sé cathedral church, on the way up to the Castelo de S. Jorge hill and Alfama. At a few minutes walking distance you find the Castelo de S. Jorge, the cafeterias and terraces of Santa Luzia and Portas do Sol, Alfama, the Sé Church, the famous Praça do Comércio square and very good transport connections, including the tram 28 and underground. An ideal location.
Nearby you have various forms of traditional Portuguese commerce, and from there you can easily reach most of the popular sightseeing spots in Lisbon.
It is also a short walking distance to the subway (Rossio station), to the train station (Cais do Sodré) going to the beaches around Cascais and the station where the trains to Sintra leaves.
Less than 5 minutes from home you will find all means of transportation you need from the tram No. 15 that will take you to Belém.
There is also some public car park within a 5/8 minutes walk of the apartment.
This location has easy access to Baixa, Bairro Alto, Chiado, the Castle (S. Jorge) district and also to Alfama and to Santa Clara, where Lisbon's flee-market takes place.
It is also close to some of the stops of the famous tram 28 (Electrico 28). This is a scenic route crossing most of the tourist neighbourhoods of the city centre. A definite must for any visitor to Lisbon.
After the great earthquake of 1755, when the center of Lisbon was destroyed, a new center was constructed, made of grid pattern "geometrical" streets. This area, situated between Praça do Comércio, Rossio and Praça da Figueira is called Baixa.
From Baixa you can easily access The nigh life district Bairro Alto and the smart Chiado, with all his theatres, museums, elegant and traditional shops, bars and restaurants.
To the other direction, going up street, you will accede Graça and Santa Clara the place where Feira da Ladra (Thief's market ), the flea market, happens every Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Here there are several "musts" not to miss on your visit:
Panteão Nacional – Church of Santa Engrácia: When the construction began in 1682, it was planned as one of the Lisbon's biggest churches. However, it had been long neglected and the construction was completed only in 1966! It was then that the Panteão Nacional was inaugurated. Here you will find cenotaphs of Portugal's heroes. The interior is colossal and contains the tombs of historic and literary figures – from Vasco da Gama to Amália Rodrigues, the famous fado singer.
The convent of São Vicente de Fora: Portugal's first king, Afonso Henriques laid the foundations of this church in order to fulfil a vow to construct Christian Houses of worship where Portuguese and European crusaders would lay to rest. Inaugurated in 1629, the church was severely damaged by the 1755 earthquake. It has been recently renovated and deserves a visit. The view from the rooftop is one of the greatest in Lisbon.
Some "Miradouros" (vantage points) with amazing views over the castle S. Jorge, the river Tejo and the city roofs: miradouro da Graça with an open-air café and Senhora do Monte 600m further on. The views are even more spectacular at sunset. Don't miss it!

Todo perfecto.Un pequeño apartamento muy limpio y centrico,,la unica pega la falta de ascensor. El recibimiento a nuestra llegada perfecta, jhonas encantador
La chica que nos atendió era muy amable, nos trajo un mapa y nos indicó todo lo importante.
En cuanto al apartamento hemos ido en julio y hacía muchísimo calor y no contaba con aire acondicionado por lo tanto era necesario abrir ventanas. Lo peor de eso es que hay bares y discotecas y la gente pasa gritando y no te deja dormir, si cierras la ventana te mueres de calor y si la abres oyes los gritos.
No tiene armario, tiene un pequeño burro con 5 perchas. No tiene tendal por lo que tuvimos que usar el burro para poder secar algo de ropa.
En la cocina hace muchísimo calor y huele un poco a humedad.
A pesar de eso el resto estaba bien.
Buona struttura, arredamento essenziale, check-in e check out facilissimi. Quartiere molto caratteristico, Bairro Alto, anche se un po' rumoroso la notte, nel complesso comunque tutto ok. Connessione wi-fi ottima. Qualche problema in bagno dovuto all'assenza di luce. Rapporto qualità-prezzo ottimo.
fed lejlighed for 2
Appartement magnifique, très propre, spacieux et pas trop loin du centre! Bien équipé (sauf le lave-vaisselle qui était en panne) mais le reste était très bien! L'hôte nous a donné de très bon conseils pour nos visites/sorties. Seul petit point négatif : l'appartement est situé à côté d'un bar bruyant le we.
This apartment has its charme!
We were 6 Persons and all of us were content with the apartment. It is beautifully furnished and the location is just perfect. I would recommend it to every one who wants to have a great time in Lisbon and enjoys night life. The apartment is not far from the streets that are full with bars. So for families with kids it can get loud at night but more because the walls are very thin and you can also hear every move from the room next door.
The check in was without any problems and we had a contact number for any questions. Pedro was very friendly and he introduced us with the help of a map to the important sight seeings and stations in Lisbon. That was very helpful.
All in all we enjoyed our stay!
The title says it all -- this is a cozy one bedroom in the heart of Lisbon, easily walkable to the metro and Barrio Alto nightlife, and steps from a great viewpoint overlooking the city. Super clean, great hosts. The neighborhood is lively, so expect some street noise, but I would definitely stay here again.
We stay in the apartment for five days and we pass very nice day.
The house is small but confortable and Ana Lisa is much helpful.
Good experience
This apartment is very well positioned and has great views of the city, bridge and river. It is also well appointed. Our five night stay was delightful.
Am besten an der Metro-Haltestelle INTENDENTE aussteigen. Die Wohnung ist schwierig zu finden aber die Gastgeberin hat uns geholfen und ist uns entgegen gelaufen. Hat uns alles super auf dem Stadtplan erklärt. Für einen Kurztrip super, vor allem weil es sehr zentral liegt und mit der Metro bestens zu erreichen ist. Laut ist es draußen, aber wir sind in der Stadt, nicht in einem Dorf. Für Menschen die mit Lärm nicht zurecht kommen, sollten sich bitte was außerhalb suchen. Uns hat es nicht ausgemacht. Lieber eine belebte Stadt mit netten Menschen und toller Atmosphäre :) Möchte man früh morgens ein Taxi, wie bei uns, dann einfach auf die Hauptstraße runterlaufen. Es kommt auch um 6.30 Uhr was. Wir haben ca. 7 EUR gezahlt bis zum Flughafen. Also alles easy, no stress.

NASA delayed Discovery's planned launch at least 24 hours to allow more time to troubleshoot a problem on one of the orbiter's main engine controllers.
Engineers detected voltage irregularities in the back up controller on Main Engine No. 3. Each of the shuttle's three liquid-fueled main engines have primary and back-up controllers that effectively are the electronic brains of the engines.
Liftoff had been scheduled for 3:52 p.m. ET Wednesday.
The earliest Discovery could launch now would be 3:29 p.m. ET Thursday. Weather conditions don't look good for that launch window, however. There is only a 30% chance that weather would cooperate.
The same back-up controller exhibited some circuitry trouble during routine prelaunch checkouts earlier in the countdown, but switch throws in the shuttle's cockpit cycled power on and off, clearing the problem. NASA Test Conductor Steve Payne said that problem was considered to be resolved.

Dedicated servers offer a whole host of benefits and types of hosting for online businesses and companies of all sizes, as one of the more desirable solutions available on the market today. One such type is the colocation option, primarily for small businesses who desire to have the same features and performance of a large IT department, but without all of the high costs.
Colocation basically allows you to place your server machine into someone else's rack and then share the bandwidth that they enjoy as your own. While it certainly costs a lot more than your standard web hosting, it costs far less than what your very own equal-amount of bandwidth operated in-house would cost.
Once everything has been set up and installed, you physically take the machine over to your new colocation partner and then proceed to either install it within a rack or rent out a server machine from the actual colocation provider. The colocation company would then provide the IP address, power to the server, and bandwidth. Once everything is all set and ready to go, you would access all of this in practically the exact same way as you access a web site on any given web hosting provider.
There are many people who think that colocation is one of the best hosting options available out of the "many other optionsâ€Â subset, and this is with good reason, as there is a very long list of its main advantages and benefits. One of the biggest advantages (perhaps, the biggest) of using colocation is the savings with regard to bandwidth cost. Spending less money is always going to be one of the major goals of any company's bottom line, and colocation helps some companies in achieving this.
Another one of the big reasons that so many people favor server colocation is because the colocation facilities themselves have better outage protection than your normal run of the mill building. Since the majority of these places are operating some very lucrative and important web sites, it's quite crucial that something like a simple ice storm doesn't bring everything to a screeching halt for two to three days.
When colocating servers, you may have to share space with some other companies' machines, but the fact of the matter is that you still own the actual server machinery. If something is too slow or doesn't have the memory that is needed for whatever reason, you can just upgrade the server instead of worrying about an entire full-on-technological-department-makeover or waiting forever for your provider to eventually get to it, at some location, somewhere down the road.
Participating in colocation also provides some additional security for machine investments. Since the server is both stored and maintained in a secure environment, you never really have to worry about anything fishy happening to it because there will be people watching it at practically all hours of the day.
Although it's not necessary, many different colocation servers offer an additional service in which they will basically maintain and manage your server for you. In the off-chance that you didn't have a team of information technology wizards at the ready, it's certainly nice to know you can fall back on something like this if need be.
As with everything though, there are some disadvantages to colocation. Some of these things include the fact that it's actually somewhat difficult to find a colocation provider that is near you, the fact that colocation can be more expensive than basic web hosting, and the notion that you always have to go out of your way to someone else's headquarters to do anything with your dedicated servers. In addition, you have to do it on the colocation server's time, rather than your own specific schedule – which means less time flexibility overall.
As discussed, colocation isn't necessarily the perfect solution in terms of "other web hosting optionsâ€Â but it certainly has enough going for it with just a small downside. No matter what your opinion or preference on colocation may be, it is clear that it certainly makes the most sense for certain types of companies.
Individuals who run small web sites for their own personal pleasure are probably not going to be prime real estate for possibly jumping into a colocation server relationship. However, if someone with a personalized web site needed their server to be especially fancy, such as something much, much more than what a standard web host could offer, then colocation could be a very good option.
In the end, colocation is just another possible web hosting option to consider, in the mix of what is available for the various different kinds of business operations on the Internet today. Colocation will most likely always be available in some way shape or form, as a viable solution for quite a few companies.
Superb Internet provides single server or full rack colocation, in its superior, world-class data centers located across the US. Superb's data centers offer the very best in high performance connectivity and professional, onsite server technicians and administrators, guaranteeing that servers are always online.
Superb also provides a complete range of managed dedicated server web hosting solutions, from virtual shared web hosting through to high-volume, mission-critical dedicated server solutions.
